message: Hi,
How can Lasar be a founding member of the "BRÜCKE" in Dresden when he is studying art in Berlin ? The 'BRÜCKE' was found by K.L. Kirchner and others in 1905 in Dresden.
There is no such thing as a  "Libermann Prize". Even not a Liebermann Prize (named after Max Liebermann ?)

Talk:Kamensk-Uralsky

message: This is the original name of settlement during the time of Imperial Russia.
Even in official Railway timebables it appeared with this name.
This makes me wonder how well today´s Russians really know the history of their
own country. The name Kamensk Uralski (Stony Ural) is the production of the Soviet era.
JN
Kamensk-Uralsky is a very big area city. From foundation it included villages Bainy, Volkovo, Krasnaya Gorka and many others. Sinarskaja was (and is) a first railway station near Kamensk. I guess it was named after river Sinara, situated to the south of Kamensk. Now, when city is big, this station gave a name to whole region in the city and to the tubes plant. You can find "prints" villages in other names in city: Krasnogorsky region, Baynovskiy bridge, Volkovskoe storage pond. You should not understand Kamensk Uralski simply as Stony Ural. "Kamensk" is due to River Kamenka - the main energy source of former foundry. "Uralski" is in order to distinguish it from other "Kamensks" of Russia as situated at Ural. River Kamenka (also called Zhelezyanka which can be translated as Iron) was named so because of many big limestone cliffs on its banks--DenWiki (talk) 12:11, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Talk:László Rátz

message: I tried to find/trace the source given for the Wigner quotation. I did not find a Nobel "acceptance" speech. All I could find was a "Nobel Lecture" and a "Banquet Speech". Wigner did mention Rátz in his Banquet Speech, but what he is reported to have said there does not match the quotation given. Wigners Nobel Lecture was on selected topics of physical science and does not seem to mention Rátz at all. However: The quotations given do appear in Wigner's autobiography, The Recollections Of Eugene P.

thread_title:  Eletelephony 

message: The edition I have looked at (a reproduction at Project Gutenberg, bound in with Jim of Hellas), spells the name ″Bethesda.″  That includes a scan of the title page of that edition.  Is this really a variant spelling among published editions?
This is the name of a character.  Clearly her name, and ″The Troubling of″ in the story title, are Biblical allusions, and different translations of the Bible have spelled the name of the place differently.  (And so it has come into English place names with diifferent spellings.)  But I think this story, and this character, should follow the spelling used by the author.  If that varies, it should be noted in the list of books.

message: "In reality, the Ranch War involved an implosion within sectors of the Irish Party, as its leadership had not facilitated the working of the Wyndham Land Purchase Act in the first place because John Dillon and his like wanted conflict above victory." This seems like a very biased statement to include as an objectively stated fact, with only one source. I find it hard to think any politician or party can be neutrally, objectively declared to "want conflict above victory", so this is a very disputable statement to me, about this or any case. This should be proven with more sources, or else be rewritten to either include other perspectives, or to state this is only one opinion by certain people.

Talk:Laurie Millsom

message: via British Newspaper Archive from the Eckington, Woodhouse and Staveley Express issue of 30 January 1926 page 8,- article headlined as "Rotheram Goalkeeper Weds" is about Millsom's marriage to Mabel Curtis and names him as eldest son of Mr & Mrs G Millsom of Rotheram, and after wedding party details gives in other paragraphs some sporting career details..."has been with the Rotheram United F.C. for two years. He is the second team goalkeeper, but on several occasions he has been goalkeeping in the Third Division team. Owing to the continued brilliance of his senior he has not got a regular place in the first eleven. Before joining Rotheram United he assisted Rotheram Amateurs...he was the regular first team custodian with the Amateurs." Then mentions "He is the stumper for Kimberworth Wesleyan Cricket Club."
via BNA from the Western Morning News issue of Tuesday 2 May 1933 in article headlined as "Millsom's Benefit" about match played the previous evening between Torquay players past and present before disappointing crowd of under 2000 "This was a benefit match for Millsom, the reserve goalkeeper, who has been with the club for the past seven years.."
via Ancestry from the 1939 National Register his entry when living in Torquay shows Mabel at same address, and Lawrence's DOB as 3 May 1901. Occupation reads as "Tourquay Electricity Undertaking Representative Consumers Dept."
via BNA obituary in Torbay Express and South Devon Echo issue of Tuesday 29 September 1959 page 5 headlined "United's first F.L. 'keeper dies" "...was Torquay United's goalkeeper when they entered the Football League in 1927. ...Mr Millsom played in that opening League match against Exeter City at Plainmoor, watched by a crowd of 12,000, and resulting in a draw."  and his funeral report in issue of Thursday 1 October 1959 page 3 headlined "Mr L Millsom" states that he died on the previous Saturday [26 September], that article has short paras on life, but has long list of funeral attendees and floral tributes.
Using BNA I found a report on that first League match for Torquay, in the Western Morning News issue of Monday 29 August 1927 page 10 "Millsom, Torquay's reserve custodian, came out of the test creditably." By early October Millsom is back in the Torquay United Reserves.
