Talk:Tiberius Claudius Cogidubnus

message: I am adding the disputed tag to the part that relates Cogidubnus to Claudia Rufina and Rufus Pudens Pudentianna. Martial announces to Rufus the marriage of Claudia, but says nothing more. --Panairjdde 16:01, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Martial names the man she's marrying as "my Pudens", which can only be Aulus Pudens, a centurion he dedicates a number of his poems to. However "Rufus Pudens Pudentianna" is imaginary, created by taking the Rufus named in Romans as sharing a mother with Paul, combining him with the Pudens named in 2 Timothy, arbitrarily declaring them to be the same man, and adding an impossible "Pudentianna" on the end for no reason I can see. He's a pious fantasy and I've nominated him for deletion. --Nicknack009 12:16, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Metro (West Yorkshire)

message: I'm not sure why there's an article about Metro and West Yorkshire PTE as they are both the same organization. It looks like the Metro article focuses on trains while the WYPTE article focuses on buses. Any comments on merging the two? mh. 20:25, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: I've added a mergeto tag pointing to WYPTE. Metro is a trading name and I think it would be better to use the offical name for the final article. It'll probably need some fairly major rewriting as well. Just as soon as I've got some time... mh. 22:59, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

text: You're right about the need to merge, the two articles merge quite well because as you say; one focuses on the MetroTrain rail network and the other on the buses. After months of deliberation (waiting for somebody else to do it) I have merged the two articles myself into the existing West Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive article and provided a redirect from Metro (West Yorkshire). Although I haven't re-written any of it, I have re-organised the existing content of both articles removing some of the overlap and I will leave it up to somebody else to re-word it. I also think it would be a good idea to feature the Metro roundel logo however someone is going to have to e-mail Metro for their permission on this.--Neal 16:43, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
Talk:The Book of Life (1998 film)

message: I understand that there are larger issues with regard to the WSWS as a source and that those are being discussed on the Wikiproject:Film page and there is no reason to repeat that discussion.  However, I saw in the revert history what seems to be a very strange remark, "it is difficult to decipher what this even means - tries to hard how? in the script? camerawork? direction of the actors?"  Here is the section that was removed, less the reference:
:David Walsh of the World Socialist Web Site gave the film a negative review, stating that "Hartley is looking to show off."
This strikes me as crystal-clear - but then again, I wrote it.  Is anyone able to explain the problem to me?  --Nixin06 (talk) 21:16, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

The page linked below is on Ken Berry's personal web site, reporting on his own work with Harry Swets, the homeless advocate turned reporter whose reports on KGO Radio Ken produced. So Ken is apparently a primary, secondary, and tertiary source on the same events? I guess that's OK.

replies: text: The Kingdom of Poland (1916–1918) was no German colonial possession, but a Polish Kingdom under Austrian-German auspices created with the blessing of the Polish Church and szlachta. Just because it did not fit Polish liberal-nationalists does not mean it is not Poland's history. I have to reinsert it. It is an historical reality. Evaluation of this Kingdom of Poland or of the Kaiserreich of Germany's intentions, is another thing.

message: :I have rewritten and re-sourced the arguments about Dio's Togodumus possibly being Tacitus' C/Togidubnus. It is not possible, whatever Miles Russell says, to argue that Dio can be interpreted as reading something other than what he actually says. Dio clearly says that Plautius defeated Caratacus, then Togodumnus, and both of them fled (60.20), and that Togodumnus died shortly after that battle on the Thames, leading to a desire on the part of the British to avenge his death (60.21). To say this can actually be read as saying that Togodumnus did not die and in fact changed sides is absurd. It is only possible to argue, as David Mattingly and John Hind do, that what Dio wrote was mistaken. I have therefore, after discussion on The Classical Greece and Rome Wikiproject, reined in the wild overstatement and cited respectable scholarly sources in support of my rewrite. --Nicknack009 (talk) 21:14, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
