Talk:Chaim Gutnick

message: In case your wondering how we know that the Rebbe told chaim gutnick he will be a Kohen roshi, it is recorded on video, which a myself have seen. I don't know if it's an appropriate source, which is my I did not include it in the actual articel.

thread_title: kohen roshi

message: I've mostly rewritten this.  I've provided some sources, but a lot of what I wrote is from personal knowledge, and it would be nice to have some sources.  In particular, I found the quote from the Previous Rebbe's telegram on a blog, but it didn't give a source; if this is printed somewhere (in the Igros, maybe?) and someone can find it and add the reference, that would be appreciated.  A source for his birth town would be nice, since Dei'ah Vedibbur incorrectly claimed that he was born in Chevron.  If anyone knows in what year his father moved to Eretz Yisroel, please add it.  And the article needs more details about his chaplaincy; the passing mention in Safe Haven was the only source I could find on the web.
Also, the ref tags aren't always in the most appropriate places.  I looked for the original of the AJN obit, instead of the copy at Shmais, but the AJN seems to have started archiving its articles in 2006; the problem with the Shmais copy is that the headline is inaccurate -- Dan Goldberg certainly knew that Rabbi Gutnick was not "Chief Rabbi of Victoria", and the AJN did not give the obit that title.  Shmais added the title himself, as he often does. Zsero 07:11, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:John George Bowes

message: I am researching the genealogy of a family of architects named Bowes,  who lived in Ottawa, Ontario between the  approximate years 1850-1895 : 
John Bowes (born 1820,  in Kilkenny County Ireland) resided first in Kingston,  and later worked as Superintending Architect of the Ottawa Parliament Buildings ( ie. the Library). He was employed by the Department of Public Works for 25 years; he died 1894 in Ottawa. I have a copy of his Obituary, indicating that  one of his daughters had married Ottawa Police Magistrate Martin O'Gara.
His brother Patrick Bowes (born, 1830, in Kingston, died 1908, St. Albert, Alberta) was an Oblate priest architect.
His son, James R. Bowes, ( born 1852, died 1892) was the architect of St. Brigid's RC. Church, Lowertown Ottawa, which is presently being threatened with closure. James died childless in a fire in California in 1892, leaving behind a widow who probably remarried and moved to the U.S. ( my guess).
I am currently trying to determine if John George Bowes, Mayor of Toronto, and John Bowes, architect in Ottawa, were related.
Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you.

message: The "history" section jumps from the 1850s to the 1970s as if nothing of note happened for over a century. Meanwhile, the demographic history indicates that something happened in the mid-20th century, when the population tripled in a couple decades.

Talk:Asim ibn Thabit

message: OK, I've chopped up that One Big Paragraph into something that is readble ... this is what an editor does ... it's purely cosmetic, but paragraph breaks make it Much Easier to pause, abosorb what you've just read, and change gears to a new topic without causing confusion. Speaking of non-sequitors, I also moved the hadith to the endo of the article and gavit its own section.
Now, as for it still being Too Long ... let's face it, the subject is only mentioned in the first three and the very last paragraphs, the way I have broken it up ... the first three could also be recombined as two ... the point is, why it is sunna to pray two rak'at if you die in captivity does not have much to do with the subject of the article, except that it involves events associated with his death ... in other words, it's , but instead of just tagging it, I'm helping you to fix it.
So, what say we cut out the boring middle and substitute … for those paragraphs to indicate that we skipped a part of the quotation? Again, no disrepect, or attempts to censor or alter sacred text, but this is what editors do ... I won't remove That Much text without floating the suggestion on the talk page first, but I don't think you'll be reverting my most recent edits ... which I broke into stages so that the changes were easier to see ... notice my comments in the history of both the article and this talk page?

Talk:Humber Premier League

message: I found this quote in a news article about LSS Lucarlys having to resign from the Central Mids League to join the Humber League - has the writer got their facts wrong or is the HPL actually higher up the pyramid than we think....?
"But it isn't all bad news for the footballers - following last-minute arrangements and meetings, LSS have managed to secure a place in the Humber Premier League for next season. Despite being a smaller league than the CMFL, it still allows the club to play in the non-League Pyramid in an FA Step 7 supply league to the Northern Counties East League. " ChrisTheDude 18:43, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If you go to English football league system the Premier Division is given as level 13. Step 7 is level 11 so there is a discrepancy of 2 levels. Either way the League is too low for their clubs to be notable. BlueValour 18:56, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I quite agree, I was merely checking whether we needed to change the references within this article to the league's level in the pyramid..... ChrisTheDude 11:34, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Hmm.  The Yorkshire area is truly a mess at the moment and the situation can't be fully represented by a pyramid - it's just too haphazard at the moment.  You have the overlapping West Yorks and West Riding Leagues, which are essentially level 11, but not Step 7.  You have the Doncaster league and the Sheffield League floating around...   Anyway, I don't think the HPL is Step 7.  It's not listed as Step 7 either on the FA's site  or on Tony Kempster's.  Furthermore, it would be very strange for Barton Town Old Boys to have a first team and reserve team both at step 7 (their first team plays in the CML Supreme).  Also, it wouldn't make sense for LSS Lucarlys to drop all the way down to the HPL Div 1 if it's a parallel league.  The HPL website claims its clubs are eligible for the FA Vase, although I'm not sure if that's true.  I'd leave it as it is for the moment due to the BTOB reserve team and the fact that LSS Lucarlys dropped down to the HPL.  It's a situation that bears watching.  The area needs to be restructured, but unfortunately the pyramid has more pressing concerns at the moment. --Balerion 21:38, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Can someone find some evidence that this concept was actually taken from Nintendo? Until it can be substantiated, I'm going to remove the sentence about it being copied from the Mii concept. Supergyro2k 18:44, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Good call. WeeMees have been around since long before the Wii's name was released (for example as the avatar of choice of FriendsReunited). If anything, it appears to be Nintendo doing the copying. --Lawlore 17:06, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd be wary of accusing anyone of copying. Nintendo's version can be traced back further than their announcment for the Wii, thereby making the names less similar. And Shigeru Miyamoto recently said he's had an idea like that for 20 years. (Though that's not necessarily proof). If the names were nonsensical, then there might be a case of plagarism. But they are both variations of common words, words that describe the avatars. Not to sound like a Nintendo apologist, but it's not hard to see this as simply a coincidence. I'm not sure if Nintendo's Miis should be mentioned at all in the article. Palomo1 23:59, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Gemini Kanon

message: ==Untitled==
I was looking at the Saint Seiya character list, Kanon kinda falls out of the order list order. Currently, 25 characters pages have been made, they are listed on the Character List page by their Star/or position title first, then their name, i.e. Gemini_Saga, Merak Beta Hagen etc. Since Kanon have multi-position or star title, perhaps we can make this page redirect into more official search page to become more uniform with other character pages on the character list page. So under Kanon, you would have the following pages all redirected together. Gemini_Kanon, SeaDragon_Kanon, and this page, Kanon (Saint Seiya). Can anyone suggest an official one? Should it be Gemini Kanon or SeaDragon Kanon??? Currently it's just Kanon (Saint Seiya) which doesn't look as good as a page title.
