Talk:James Saumarez, 1st Baron de Saumarez

message: I am trying to confirm details, however I believe this reference in the wiki entry for Cornwallis, the emissary sent in Cornwallis' place, is the subject James Saumarez:
" On 19 October 1781, an emissary of Cornwallis surrendered the army to Washington. Cornwallis himself declined to attend the ceremony, claiming illness. "
:No. It was Brigadier Charles O'Hara. Saumarez was naval, hence out of Cornwallis' chain of command, and as yet a minor figure. Choess 02:39, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Jacob Thorkelson

message: Somebody wanting to expand this stub could seemingly find lots to say beyond Thorkelson's "isolationism". One example, a quote from The Man Who Would Be Hitler: William Dudley Pelley and the Silver Legion, by Suzanne G. Ledeboer, in California History, Vol. 65, No. 2 (Jun., 1986), pp. 126-136:
"The trial began on July 28 in Indianapolis, with Charles A. Lindbergh and Congressman Jacob Thorkelson subpoenaed as witnesses for the defense. Thorkelson, from Montana, had used his franking privilege to mail Nazi propaganda for George Sylvester Viereck, a German intelligence agent. There is no direct evidence that he performed the same service for Pelley, but he had consulted and met with him."

Talk:Stabilizers (band)

message: Since I restarted the modern page about the band Stabilizers in July, it seems to be progressing nicely. ---TaoPhoenix
All I can tell all of you , is that these guys were awesome!!! I found this page because I was searching for new albums but was dismayed that none exist. EVERY tune on this CD is well crafted, melodic, dancable, and extremely well produced. What a shame that they were just to good for mainstream..... B Walter Phoenix
Thanks for making the Stabilizers page TaoPhoenix. I have some additional information about their second album for MCA that was actually completed but never released. I'm not sure it ever even had a title. The song "Maybe This Time" appears on this second album so I'm pretty sure it was not from the "Tyranny" sessions. This second album had 10 songs:
Does it Make You Feel any Better?
My Love Will Bury You
Third World Within
Give Me Time
Glass House
Breaking Through
Maybe This Time
Down To One
Into The Dream
Turn to Grey
It is a real shame that this record was never released. I have always thought that it was even better than "Tyranny". Maybe someone that has contact with Rich or Dave can coax them to release it to iTunes or something. It deserves to be heard for sure and I think fans would absolutely love it! -audpro1701  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Audpro1701 (talk • contribs) 15:55, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Jacobus Nicolaas Boshoff

message: For reasons unknown but apparently pertaining to naming conventions, this article was moved from Jacobus Nicolaas Boshoff to Jacobus Boshoff, even before it was properly created. In all literature, Boshoff is mentioned with both his Christian names. It is therefore natural, in conformity with Wikipedia conventions that it is listed with both:
 
"Generally, use the most common format of a name: if that is with a middle name or an abbreviation, make the Wikipedia article name conform to that format." [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions (people)#When it seems difficult to follow the "<First Name> <Last Name>" format#Middle names and abbreviated names|Middle names and abbreviated names]]

Talk:Allen Walker Read

message: I question the wording abt "American publishers", in light of the following:
:Allen Walker Read's paper in American Speech 9:4 (1934). This is something to begin with. According to Read, _fuck_ is cognate with Latin _pungere_ 'to knock, strike'. Formally & semantically, this is more probable than not.
per http://www3.iath.virginia.edu/lists_archive/Humanist/v05/0605.html

Talk:Amelia Jones

message: I thought I should ID myself: I am Jennifer Doyle. I worked with Jones at UC Riverside, and have collaborated with her for nearly 15 years. Am following the stories coming out of USC's Roski School of the Arts, where Jones is Vice-Dean. Someone is committing small acts of vandalism to this page: adding the word "neoconservative," for example, as one of Jones's fields, and removing a reference to Queer Theory as one of her fields of expertise. (Jones is not an expert in neoconservative, and neocons would describe her as "liberal"; she is one of few art historians to write about sexuality at all—she is currently editing and writing a book centered on queer feminism and contemporary art.) 
This is, in a way, small stuff, but it is also not small stuff. I'm watching her page as a colleague and as a Wikipedia editor (I haven't been very active in the past few years; most of my editing has been on art historical subjects). Trying to adhere to community standards — I edited a reference to student protest, leaving the basic story stand — even though the students' manifesto doesn't name Jones as a part of the problem, but she is in an administrative position and it is a news story— I edited that original contribution to try to balance out the not-knowing-Jones's role with the fact that this conflict exists. I am, however, removing things that are wrong.   ˜˜˜˜  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Judyholliday (talk • contribs) 17:28, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Peter Paul Dobrée

message: His name is occasionally mentioned with an accent, as in Peter Paul Dobrée, cited by the The Oxford Dictionary of Family Names in Britain and Ireland. On the other hand here is an 1839 book that calls him Peter Paul Dobree. It seems to be 50/50 across about two centuries.  --- Possibly ☎ 07:43, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I hadn't seen this when I edited the article to add the accent to the name, and definitely didn't intend to pre-empt any discussion here – I just saw a question in the Teahouse and acted based on the sources that are in the article now, which are 2/3 +accent. If you (or anyone else) thinks it would be better to return the article to its original state until there has been a bit more discussion about it, I don't have a problem with that.  In any case, the article title should agree with the spelling in the article, whether that is with or without the accent. --bonadea contributions talk 08:12, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Dalip Singh Saund

message: I added links to Sikh personalities and Ramgarhia's. Thanks --Sikh-History 08:47, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Added Links 

message: [The following was C&P'd from my talk page. Also, you can look at Ikjyotsingh's talk page.--S.Rich]
First, it is not "Shikh", but Sikh. Shikh refers to a name of Arab descent, which is entirely different than Sikh.
Also, according to Tisdale's article: "Although Saund removed his turban, a Sikh symbol of religious devotion, soon after he immigrated to the U.S., he remained connected with the Sikh organization in central California that had provided housing for him upon his arrival at Berkeley." This comment along with the Indian High court decision proves what I have been saying as correct. You cannot nitpick quotes that suit your predisposition. 
Second, what I quoted was not any "religious law" or interpretation of it. It is a law based on an Indian High Court (Commonwealth Law) decision, and is the worldwide accepted legal definition of a Sikh. Therefore, I have reverted your edit.
Thanks.

Not your reading of worldwide accepted legal definitions, The existing sources support the info about Saud's Sikh affiliation. Wikipedia follows what the sources provide. We do not take informatioon from other sources and apply original research or synthesis. If or when you find material that says Saund himself was Patit, then you can add it.
