Talk:George M. Willing

message: Is there any relation between the George M. Willing described by this article and the Dr. George Maurice Willing, Jr. (1829?–March 1874) associated with the Baron of Arizona, James Reavis, and the fraudulent Peralta land grant?  Most books dealing with Reavis contain basic biographical details on the Willing that introduced the Baron to the Peralta grant but neither the books nor a search engine test provide enough information to determine if the Willing associated with the name Idaho is or is not the same person who latter partnered with Reavis. --Allen3 talk 20:15, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I have found the answer to my own question.  The unelected Congressional delegate from Jefferson Territory is the person who introduced James Reavis to the Peralta grant.[Powell, Donald M. (Summer 1959).

replies: text: None of the sources I have found make any mention of a relation, but that doesn't prove anything.  The only press report I have found about his father, provides even less biographical information. --Allen3 talk 01:10, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rrelated to [[Thomas Willing]]? 

message: It looks like whoever created this page read one book (Cookridge) and used the the biographical info in it for Willing.  But Cookridge's book is mostly fiction.  It is based on the "Baron of Arizona" story, but it embellishes rather liberally.  For instance, Willing was not born in Philadelphia, but in Hawesville, Hancock County, Kentucky.  His wife's maiden name was Mary Ann Lamar, and there is a record of their marriage in Hawesville.
There is absolutely no credible information that Willing was an "abortionist".  That appears to have been wholly made up by Cookridge.  
As for being "inspired by a girl named Ida", that comes directly from the Stoddard letter, and is suspect.  It's not even clear that Willing, himself, made up the word "Idaho" or if it came from someone else in the mining camps.
If I knew how to edit Wikipedia pages I would fix it myself, and I might come back and do that, but at a minimum this page should be somehow flagged as dubious.

Talk:George T. Washington (Liberia)

message: There's way too much unsourced material in the article for a biography. An image was being used that claimed Washington is deceased, but was removed because there's no sourcing provided to verify that's the case per :WP:BDP. While a former general, presidential candidate, etc. might be Wikipedia notable, more citations to specific sources are needed to verify this per :WP:BIO. A Google search did not turn up any hits for this particular George T. Washington, so it will be hard to keep this or at least avoid removing the majority of the unsourced content without at least demonstrating :WP:NEXIST in some way. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:41, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Yata no Kagami

message: I understand that for those Wiki editors who have never been to Japan, can't speak Japanese and only know about Japanese culture through mangas and anime and whatever else that gets marketed to 14 year old boys, that listing every comic book that makes reference to, say, the  Imperial Regalia is a sign of respect, that they are somehow being respectful of the culture they choose to write about. So far this fails to be the case. I'm putting the Pop Cult. section here, so that if someone with more free-time than I have wants to actually cite these sources, perhaps they can make a case that this information is somehow critical to the understanding of the Imperial Regalia. Curiously enough, the article on the United States Constitution doesn't have a Pop Culture section in it, listing all the comic books it has ever been mentioned in. One day I hope Wikipedia will take Japanese history and folklore as serious as it does American history and folklore. Chalchiuhtlatonal (talk) 13:18, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: merge??

message: Most of the article talks about the mirror as a unique artifact that is a part of the very distinct Imperial Regalia of Japan, but the last part mentions that there are three in separate locations. Which is true? Or is Yata no Kagami a class of mirrors? Another impression I am getting is that the two Yata no Kagami not placed in Ise Jingu are replicas... But I am not sure which is the fact. --211.200.60.161 (talk) 15:00, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Message loop in Microsoft Windows

message: While this code has been antiquated by modern frameworks accompanying high-level languages [...]
I find this statement quite ambiguous. Is it the general use of event loops in Windows systems that has been antiquated, or the particular use of GetMessage(), TranslateMessage() and DispatchMessage(&msg)?
Either way, what is actually used by modern frameworks? --Abdull 12:42, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I replaced the text with something a little better.  As for what the frameworks use, it varies; the two examples illustrate two different approaches: one with a straightforward callback mechanism (VB), the other using a signal/slot mechanism to mediate the callbacks.  Others such as MFC and Wx use message maps which can be seen as being somewhat inbetween, and there are yet more exotic mechanisms out there for connecting guis to code, though the toolkits using them tend to be equally esoteric as well.  206.173.243.159 (talk) 15:42, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

:You have no clue what live drum tracks are and when they've been used do you? Other than that what you put is fine. R-Tiztik 05:49, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You have no idea who I am and what I've done on talk pages like this for people who really are rude and abusive, so don't give me this. The date of the album is not 1998 nor did it ever say that. It has been in the demo stages circa 1998, following the release of Oddities. There have been very little interviews in the past two years and so everything that appears here is what can be garnered from pre-existing interviews. Most of what you added is useful, but the notation of live drum tracks is also useful in that no other London After Midnight has used them, and they are not "conventional" in the sense to begin with. How you know there are between 14 and 16 songs on the album and how only two feature live drumming is a mystery to me. I am not rude and abusive. You're relatively new to the Wikipedia community and are in no position to call this on me; I've seen far more extreme. I even told you that besides the exempt of live drumming, what you put was fine. If taking offense to a question of familiarity deludes you from anything else I may say in favor of you, well that isn't really my fault. R-Tiztik 13:13, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Moby and Time Travel 

message: I ask about Godspeed You Black Emperor because I thought I heard them. A stately wideband crescendo from the recording Lift Up Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven, heard in the last quarter of the movie somewhere... I'd have kept the thought to myself if I hadn't seen a possible precedent for this. In 28 Days Later they appear in the movie's sound, but not the soundtrack release, but there is a lengthy YouTube comments page discussing their desire not to be credited or to appear beyond the scope of the movie's sound. If that isn't the only case, their music might similarly have appeared in Heat but not been credited let alone transferred to a soundtrack release. Does anyone else have any thoughts about this? Some time (if I remember to do it) I will make time to isolate the exact sections, times and durations of each occurrence, and if I wasn't misled somehow I'll edit this to add details.
(Unrelated, but also interesting to me, is the intensely similar character of Tangerine Dream's soundtrack to another Michael Mann film, Thief. While Heat's score's character is described as 'European', I'm surprised that no-one seems to have cited Tangerine Dream directly. I can't help thinking that this is a case of 'credit where credit is due', and that if TD had still been making the same kind of music at the time, Michael Mann might have used them again. I recall that Friedkin was so impressed with them that he edited Sorceror to fit the soundtrack! Not many movie directors would ever do that.)

However i doubt a change in time signiture is what your talking about ergo i would say that perhaps it has been edited for your region, i dont know if they do that with music cds but if it occured in two different versions then thats the only thing i can think of.
