Talk:Slavery in ancient Greece

message: This is an older Featured Article that is in need of a review. In particular, I have the following concerns:
* heavy use of ancient, primary sources such as Athenaeus, Lysias, Thucydides, Plutarch, Xenophon, Diodorus Siculus, Aristotle, Heraclitus, Antiphon, Aristid Decatur, Ctesicles, Demosthenes, the Book of Deuteronomy, Herakleides Lembos, Plato, Menander, Strabo, Alcibiades, and I'm probably missing someone - secondary sources are preferred;
* Citations need clean up:
:* Mix of modern and ancient sources as if it was the same thing;
:* Unsourced notes like  and 
:* (Economics, 1344a35), (Odyssey, 16:140–1), (Laws, 11:915 a–c.), for instance - all citations need authors;
* Further Reading is gigantic - shouldn't some of those works be used in the article?
* the heavy reliance of this article on French sources makes me think if we are missing significant English sources;
* should we be using papyrus fragments directly as sources? (for instance, Apud Athenaeus, 6:265bc = FGrH 115, fgt.122.)
I think this article needs work to keep the star. RetiredDuke (talk) 20:26, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  FA in need of review 

message: I have read the Republic in whole and don't remember any positive mention of slaves existing. The text however asserts that they are in "10:469". However, book ten starts in page 595, as can be seen publicly here. Therefore, slavery could have not been justified in a page that does not exist (there is no link either, nor a secondary source). I will try to remove this reference, until positive proof and more sources can be found. 181.94.6.50 (talk) 06:26, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I was able to confirm that the reference is basically apocryphal. There is a mention of slavery in page 469 (which is in book five, not ten) but the only thing it says is that greeks should be forbidden to take other greeks into slavery after a war.181.94.6.50 (talk) 06:43, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

message: Why has the Latin alphabet no single letter for the Greek letter Psi (ψ)? --84.61.4.140 09:49, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Psi 

message: The linked PDF indicates that there are two variants in the standard; Type 1 is a transliteration (TL) and Type 2 is a transcription (TR). TL provides no special treatment except that a possible diacritic mark is moved from upsilon to the vowel in αυ, ευ and ηυ. TR from Annex B, which is almost identical to UN ELOT 743, on the other hand doesn’t feature the macrons for eta and omega, which are allowed to follow the letter in TL in technically restricted environments. The standard seems also to provide treatment for diacritial and punctuation marks, for the archaic letter digamma (w) and two more (j, s) – the latter, looking like a romman c, is just a presentational variant of sigma as fas as I know.
Somebody please confirm and update. Christoph Päper 14:39, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Blood Harvest (Dicks novel)

message: K-9 Mark II
Since this is the novel in which Romana returns to Gallifrey, and she and K-9 Mark II are specifically seen in novels, audio plays, and the Shada webcast alike, all taking place chronologically later in Romana's personal timeline, it should be noted that the book fails to account for K-9 accompanying her and the Seventh Doctor on the journey back out of E-Space.  K-9 is mentioned in an original scene in the prologue that takes place in between parts of "Warrior's Gate", and discussed by the characters, but the prose neglects to specifically describe the Mark II as accompanying them back to Gallifrey.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.125.250.105 (talk) 04:49, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:David Watson (evangelist)

message: Manwaring makes no mention of St Cuthberts or a move, and makes it appear that the entire revival happened at St Michael le Belfrey. So really either we need a different source to support the version of events currently in the article or to alter the article to match Manwaring's account. HrafnTalkStalk 12:05, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: It doesn't matter in which church this took place, but it does matter that the article match the source -- so (per WP:V, "the threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth" ) I will rewrite this to match what Manwaring says, unless and until we find a more detailed source that includes St Cuthberts (whose name I cannot find linked to Watson in any RS) in the story. I must admit that I find this inability to verify the specifics of what is supposed to be one of Watson's career highpoints to be troubling. HrafnTalkStalk 04:42, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
