Talk:Matthias Jabs

message: Someone, probably very unfamiliar with the article subject, placed an SD tag on this article without discussion. The users recent history seems to show a bad habit of that. There are thousands of warranted SD's on Wikipedia...this isn't one of them. Fair Deal 15:27, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I know it is a long time since the above comment was posted, but it may help someone some time to have this issue clarified. The tag referred to was a speedy deletion tag. It said that the article was an article about a real person that does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject. This was true: the article as it existed at the time did not indicate notability. Whether the user who placed the tag was "very unfamiliar with the article subject" or not is irrelevant: the subject may be very notable, but if the article does not establish that fact then it is perfectly correct to tag it. If Fair Deal was aware of evidence of notability then the correct procedure was to add that evidence to the article, not to criticise Buckner 1986 for having placed the tag.

Talk:Rudolf Schenker

message: One of the two photos on this page is not of Rudolf Schenker, but instead of his brother Michael Schenker.  The one with the platinum crop-top and sunglasses is of Michael Schenker who has also played with the Scorpions but is not historically speaking a member of the band. . It's a picture of Michael Schenker, not Rudolf Schenker, the subject of this Wikipedia entry.
They're brothers and are both guitar prodigies but are certainly not the same person.  This entry should be corrected.  If I knew how, and had a current picture to put in its place, I would edit the listing myself.

Talk:Non-convergent discourse

message: When I lived in France in 2005, I experienced this in reverse. I--a native speaker of American English--would speak to a French person in French, and they--native speakers of French in France--would reply to me in English-only. This type of reverse non-convergence accounted for about 15% to 20% of my interactions with French 'strangers'. We would conduct an entire conversation for as long as 10 or 15 minutes, with neither party 'joining' the other in a common language. But we were not speaking in our own language (i.e. expressing linguistic chauvinism) but rather we each were speaking in the OTHER person's mother tongue. 
Upon examination of my own motivations, I find that I chose to continue in French because I went to France to perfect my French and felt very frustrated that so many European I met spoke to me in English. Sometimes I felt resentful that they were 'using me' to practice their English! I lived in a multi-lingual student household (German, Scottish, Polish, French and American) and the language everyone spoke together at home was English, not French! This added to my frustration as I wanted to practice my French. Also, I had been told time and again that it is rude to go to another person's country and 'force' them to accommodate your language; I was determined to not be the quintessential 'ugly American'. I'm not sure what the motivation was for the French speaker. Perhaps they started off trying to be polite (accommodate me) and then just continued in English without really thinking about it. Or perhaps my French was so poor that the French speaker instinctively stuck to English to keep the conversation moving!
I am not a linguist but I would like to see some discussion of this kind of phenomenon discussed here by experts. I think it is a common experience of American English-speaking travelers overseas now that English is growing in popularity as a more-international language in science, business, diplomacy, etc.
:An advantage of the situation you describe is that it's more likely for the other person to understand you if you use their language - so if each conversation partner uses their second language (the other person's first), then communication may be more successful than if it were conducted only in one language, which one of the two may not understand as well (or as quickly) as their first language. -- pne (talk) 12:04, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: Was Slick born in '51 or '52? For argument's sake, let's assume October 1 is the correct birthday.
*Loudersound says he was 22 in 1974, and 11 years old on February 9, 1964. That would put his eleventh birthday in October 1963, and his birth year 1952.
*The Herald of Scotland says that Slick was 21 leading up to the October 1974 release of David Live, which could mean he turned 21 in '74 or was already 21 for the recordings prior to the release at which he was 22. This would mean Slick was born in 1952 or possibly '53.
*The San Diego Union-Tribune says Slick was 22 in 1974. The same source says he was 21 when he joined Bowie on tour in 1974. The only conclusion is that he turned 22 in 1974.
*Slick's agency website says 1951 with no month or day. It also says he was 13 on February 9, 1964, which conflicts with his stated birth year, because a thirteen-year-old person with an October birth month would have been born in 1950.
Looks like more sources say 1952. Binksternet (talk) 18:40, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
