message: Terence Etherton was appointed as a judge of the High Court (Chancery Division) in January 2001. Was Etherton not openly gay when appointed? Ntmr (talk) 15:38, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I have found a reliable source for the proposition that Terence Etherton and not Adrian Fulford was the first openly gay High Court Judge, and have corrected the article accordingly. I would suggest that BBC News is more likely to be correct than Pink News, and, in any event, the facts speak for themselves: Etherton was appointed on 11 January 2001 and Fulford on 21 November 2002. I suspect that the appointment of Fulford to the QBD may have been more high profile in that Etherton was appointed to the Chancery Division, which deals with Company Law, Property Law, Trust Law, etc., whereas judges who are appointed to the QBD of the HC deal (among other things) with important criminal trials in the Crown Court.Ntmr (talk) 16:44, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Akosua Busia

message: Akosua Busia is referred to as a princess from the Royal Family of Wenchi. This is not accurate. Her link to the Royal family of Wenchi is through her father. The Akans of Ghana are matrilineal and so an Akan male's child does not belong to his family. So children of male royals are not royal or prince/princesses. They are called 'oheneba' which mean's a 'king/chief's child' or 'odehyeba' which means a 'royal's child.' 41.222.232.245 (talk) 13:35, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Missile guidance

message: The section on inertial guidance says that ring laser gyros like those used in private aircraft are less accurate than the mechanical systems in ICBMs. It's not clear to me from reading this whether this is specifically talking about Big Deal (TM) military-grade mechanical gyros vs cheap off-the-shelf laser hardware, or if it's comparing the two in general and just giving examples. The source is a book I don't have on hand. I feel like either way it would be clearer with an adjective or two.

Talk:Alec Mapa

message: I was just going to add Major Crimes to his list, and fix a few formatting problems, but ultimately decided it needs more work than that. This list is far too extensive to have the film and TV appearances mixed in together. But there are other issues, like what comedy specials to list under films or TV, or to give them their own section. Plus, there is no reason to have individual episodes listed out for any series and there are even duplicate entries for series. That's going to take some more work. I'm not even sure of the reasoning behind the number of minutes included for short films in his list. But for now I'm leaving all that data in tact, and sticking with cleaning up the structure. 
So, for today, I've pulled all the films into their own table, with consistent formatting throughout it (per Wikipedia:WikiProject_Actors_and_Filmmakers. And I put a TV series label on the other table. I'll try to start on cleaning up the formatting on that table next week. CleverTitania (talk) 06:56, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Hopefully with her due to appear in an "American in China" and interview might ask her to elaborate on her Asian background if any.

(Neither of which is tonal even though they end on, and often use, common chords. Tonality involves tonal progressions, which are largely absent in much of Pettersson's music (or much of Debussy's very different-sounding work which also is not tonal...), afaik (which has nothing to do, one way or the other, with coherence. Coherence it seems to me to have plenty of. As to Eliasson's, I've only heard a work or two of his - harpsichord and strings Disegno, one other- and not recently, so I can't say...)
