Thereafter, the same named reference may be reused any number of times either before or after the defining use by typing just . The use of the slash before the > means that the tag is self-closing, and the  used to close other references must not be used in addition.

Talk:Grace A. Dow

message: I am a newbie editor to Wikipedia: so if I am in the wrong place to suggest the following edit, please feel free to let me know and point out the correct place!
The story related in this article about patients being able to eat apples can be found in “A Journey of Caring”.  However, in “The Pines: 100 Years of the Herbert H. and Grace A. Dow Homestead, Orchards and Gardens” in Plate 2, which maps out the Dow properties, it indicates that while the land that the hospital stands on was part of the Dow farm, the orchards actually lay to the north and south of it.
I would like to suggest the following edit to the Grace A. Dow entry:
“In April 1941, she donated ten acres (later increased to 40 acres) of property to become the site of Midland Hospital (now MidMichigan Medical Center-Midland).  Relatives recalled her joy in making the gift, which was adjacent to the Dow family orchards, as she joked, "If nothing else, they can sit there and eat apples while they have to be in the hospital."PostStreetArchivist 15:15, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Philanthropy 

message: I triggered a red-lettered "problem" that I was not able to understand when I corrected a "minor" problem - Grace Dow did not found or co-found the Daughters of the American Revolution - that was done in 1890 - I believe in Washington, D.C. - she founded a chapter in 1922 in Michigan, that met in Midland, I believe, called the John Alden Chapter, and that is an important distinction to make.  I apparently did not cite the webpage source correctly, or something.  If someone can tell me what the problem is and how to correct it, I would be grateful. Otherwise, on that webpage, there is a photo of her that someone with more computer cleverness than I have could download onto the Wikipedia site.
I might also comment, as much as I revere Grace A. Dow, that calling her an "American philanthropist" is a bit too much, she was a "Michigan philanthopist" in my view.  I do not see her reach as being national.  She was definitely a great local woman, not small in mind or in the stature of her works, but not a national figure.

Talk:Greg Quinn (farmer)

message: This article seems to be copied almost word-for-word from Mr. Quinn's promotional materials.  There was an article about him in Reader's Digest which is pretty much a sales pitch for his currant juice that makes a couple of suspicious claims about his background (he was supposedly recruited as a spy after being drafted and ran a restaurant in Bavaria reselling food and alcohol from a PX).  It seems all he has accomplished is getting some outdated state laws removed and running another health juice business (what are the eight books the article claims he has published?).  This doesn't seem very encyclopedic. -12.40.5.69 (talk) 20:51, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Elimination reaction

message: I have a problem with the claim that "In most organic elimination reactions, hydrogens are lost..."
I am going to change it to "In most organic elimination reactions, at least one hydrogen is lost..."
I believe it is more accurate and I believe it helps to avoid the obvious question: "Most" in what context?
Most known? Most by frequency? Most by commercial volume (or dollar value)?
Since it is not clear to me that we even know what the "most" common elimination reaction is in the Universe, the term needs a context, but it seems too pedantic to include here.71.31.152.220 (talk) 21:18, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

message: This article only covers the E2 mechanism, but as the "opposite transformation [of] hydrohalogenation", E1 is at least as appropriate. And there's nothing here that is specific to dehydrohalogenation among various leaving groups. Instead, elimination reaction already covers what is here, including more discussion of the relationships among geometry and competing reactions, which are key details related to the topic and also popular information for undergrad-level students who probably are a major set of readers interested in this reaction.

Talk:Fujiwara Seika

message: This analysis has no cited support:
:But in 1598, at Fushimi Castle, he met Gang Hang (1567–1618), a Korean neo-Confucian scholar who was taken prisoner to Japan during Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598). In Joseon Dynasty, neo-Confucianism was the state ideology and there were a lot of neo-Confucianism scholars and literature.  On the contrary, the academism of Japan was usually confined only in the Buddhist monasteries during the civil wars of Daimyo rivalry. And the classical Chinese, in which most of neo-Confucian literature were written, was legible only to the educated Buddhists like Fujiwara or Hayashi.  Most of samurais were illiterate then. So neo-Confucianism was very fresh to Japan at that time and interesting to educated Buddhists first. Fujiwara learned neo-Confucianism from Gang Hang and became the originator of Japanese neo-Confucianism.Later Tokugawa Bakufu adopted neo-Confucianism as ruling ideology, like Chinese and Korean dynasties.  Soon neo-Confucianism in Japan was matured and many of prominent neo-Confucianists emerged during Tokugawa Shogunate period.

Talk:Galdan Boshugtu Khan

message: The Chinese TV Series portrayed Galdan as to have demanded Kanxi's eldest daughter as a hostageand wife while having political ambition to recover Dadu (i.e. Beijing) the Mongol capital of the Yuan Dynasty of 500 years ago. The Series showed that Kangxi mounted several westernward military campaigns, including a personal lead, starting 1679 to hunt Galdan after Galdan started to show his political ambition with the invasion of Kashgar. Galdan was finally eliminated in 1697, and central Asia (i.e. present-day Xinjiang) was hence incorporated into Kangxi's Qing Empire with the promise of peace and acceptance to the other Mongol khans and chiefs.  Is this historical?
Sam.
There's already THIS page on him: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galdan
Please merge the two pages.
Basil II
- - - - - - - -
The Mongolian spelling of this Tibetan name is Galdan. If we read the history, it wasn't that easy for Kanxi to defeat Galdan, it required a lot of efforts and cunningness. The Chinese TV Series is a fiction first of all and although it uses many historical events, we must remember it is Chinese-biased after all. It shows Galdan being sadistically slain at the battlefield. In reality he committed suicide at a site called Acha Amtai in nowadays Gobi-Altai aimag of Mongolia where Kanxi didn't approach. The vulnerability with history is that it is often politicised. 
There are many contradicting interpretations by various historians. One of the most doubtful is that Galdan had an ambition to recover Dadu (i.e. Beijing). Some historians suggest Galdan was a Russian agent, while some suggest he was a Tibetan agent. Some even suggest that he was an agent of the Manchu as his war finally caused Khalkha become a vassal of the Manchu. One thing is clear: Dzungaria became a serious political force which was able to oppose the Manchu expansion for a century until its population was cruelly exterminated by the Qing army. Gantuya Eng
