Talk:Bernard de Neufmarché

message: There seem to be some 'factoids' about Bernard: that he was half-brother to William the Conqueror, and married a Welsh wife. Having looked into it, I don't believe these. Charles Matthews 21:08, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. I think I have explained the errors in the article by making refernce to his real relationship to the Conqueror's family and to the Welsh princess. Srnec 06:11, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

message: Agnes was indeed the name of Bernard's wife but Agnes was the Anglo-Norman translation of Nest which was also her mother's name-hence the confusion. There are many documents which name Bernard's wife -correctly- as Nest ferch Osbern, and in point of fact ThePeerage.com gives her name as such. Bernard's mother-in-law is usually listed as Nest ferch Gruffydd.--jeanne (talk) 06:50, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Agaja

message: The original for this article had good information, but no sources and it was very incomplete.  I added top-flight sources and cleaned up some aspects.  The following changes are relevant:
1. I moved the page.  Agaja is the preferred usage, although some old Encyclopedias do use Agadja, the scholarly usage is clear.  See: any Law source, or Bay, or Encyclopedia of the Middle Passage.  Agaja is heavily preferred.
2. Debate in historians: There is an active discussion over the past 30 years about whether Agaja was active in the slave trade hesitantly or whether he was active.  I tried to reflect and write the (very important it turns out) debate.  But more improvement by experts could help.
3. The history is not clear on key points.  I tried to reflect this with mentions of disputed parts.  When it wasn't clear, I used Bay's history as a key default position.

Talk:Albertus Seba

message: I was trying to find this page, and all I knew was the surname "Seba." So I searched for "Seba," and was immediately taken to the page for a musician whose stage name is "Seba." That page has disambiguation links for a Biblical figure, and an education board, SEBA. Albertus Seba is known as "Seba" in the names of species he discovered, such as "Seba's short tailed bat." I'm fairly new to editing, so I'm not sure how to go about making it easier to find this page by going to the Seba Wikipedia page, but I think it makes sense that it should be.

Are you folks implying that these prisoners disappeared into Nellis to perhaps be stored on ice with the frozen aliens?

thread_title:  Sentence seems to be incomplete 

message: It seems like in the past few weeks a number of people have been on a campaign to remove the word Eskimo from various articles. I've just been reverted because a user felt I was "campaigning for my POV" when in fact I was restoring a previous version of the article. In point of fact, it is clearly those who are repeatedly removing the term regardless of context the ones who are "campaigning for a POV." 
Now, I'm not saying I totally don't get it. The term "Eskimo" has been widely misapplied to refer to any native people's from northern areas, and in some places it is considered a racial slur. I do understand that. What I think others may not understand is that the Yu'pik actually are an Eskimo group. Many of them, if you asked their race or tribe, will gladly, even proudly, reply "Yup'ik Eskimo". It simply isn't a slur in this context. 
If the the users who are insisting it can't be used in an article about an actual Eskimo people would care to explain why that is, I'd be interested to hear your reasoning.   . Beeblebrox (talk) 20:13, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, some Yupiit use the term Eskimo, but others see it as a racial slur, so no reason to offend those Yupiit. The term did not derive in Alaska. The Alaska Native Language Center is a good, neutral resource on terminology, and their essay on the matter points out, "Although the name 'Eskimo' was commonly used in Alaska to refer to Inuit and Yupik people of the world, this usage is now considered unacceptable by many or even most Alaska Natives, largely since it is a colonial name imposed by non-Indigenous people. Alaska Natives increasingly prefer to be known by the names they use in their own languages, such as Inupiaq or Yupik" (ANLC). Yuchitown (talk) 01:20, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
