message: Oswald Mbuyiseni Mtshali was born in 1946 in Vryheid, Kwa-Zulu Natal.  He is   South African.  He was schooled in Vryheid but when he eventually matriculated he decided to move to Johannesburg to study further at the University of Witwatersrand.  Due to the fact that a racist government was in power at that time he was denied access due to the racial separation legislation, also known as Apartheid. 
During his early post matriculation years he worked as a messenger in Soweto.  He then published his first volume of poetry known as “Sounds of a Cowhide Drum” in 1971.  Now days “Sounds of a Cowhide Drum” is considered a landmark in South African poetry.  It explores the effects of Apartheid on the working men of South Africa.  It was published by Nadine Gordimer and was one of the first books of poems to be widely distributed throughout South Africa by a black author.  It also started a debate between the white populations making them start to question the government.  This all created huge profits for Oswald’s white publisher.
Since he was not able to study further in South Africa Oswald traveled to the United States.   There he studied creative writing at the University of Columbia. He then returned to South Africa to publish his second volume of poetry called “Fireflames” in 1980. 
“Fireflames” was a collection of militant poems and was originally banned by the South African government but was released again in 1986.  On the making of “Fireflames” Oswald changed his “tune”.  It expresses militancy but still uses the culture of the Zulu African society. 
Oswald wrote in a very vivid almost ironical way to help readers understand the everyday life of a black person having to survive in Apartheid South Africa.  His ways of writing made a huge impact on both black and white readers.  Other black poets were a lot more direct, angry and lyrical in the way in which they wrote and as black politics became more violent in the 80’s Oswald was often criticized for not being rebellious to Apartheid depression.  His original work was quite popular among white liberals which unfortunately made him less of an icon for younger black poets.  It is speculated that perhaps in a response to the criticisms by the public he released “Fireflames”.
Nowadays after Oswald’s immense success as a poet he has become an educator.  He was vice-principal of Pace College, a school in Soweto and also taught at the New York City College of Technology.  Currently he lives in The Bronx, New York and continues to teach and write poetry.

Talk:Smendes

message: The infobox for this article gives the dates "c. 1077/1076–1052 BC" for his reign. However, Kitchen in his Third Intermediate Period offers two different sets of dates for his reign (Tables 1 & 2): his preferred 1069–1043 BC, & an alternative 1089–1063 BC. (Both Manetho & modern experts agree he reigned for 26 years.) Obviously there are several different opinions about the dates, & a discussion about them, & any possible current consensus for them, is needed. -- llywrch (talk) 18:40, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

I have no knowledgeable basis for suggesting this other than it would maybe make better sense, so maybe it's been mis-quoted there?

and also his decorations, sourced from a Norwegian website.  I suspect my information is not entirely complete, as while I know he was a Sergeant at time of his training accident in 1943 he must have been ultimately commissioned as an officer because he won the Distinguished Flying Cross awarded by the UK government. There is a decoration mentioned on the website I do not know how to translate, awarded 1990, titled Kommendorstecknet av Kungl.

thread_title:  Human or Animal Medical Condition? 

message: This is not a synonym for recurrent corneal abrasion or erosion, which is what the author (capably) describes.  Because infectious corneal ulcers have a different etiology and are so treated from corneal erosions, this material should be moved out of the ulcer topic.Bticho 18:43, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Refractory corneal ulcers 

message: I think I'm going to be bold and rename this article Corneal ulcers in animals.  There is still very little about the human aspect of the condition except for the infobox and a bit about culturing.  For now corneal ulcer can redirect here, until someone wants to write an article about the human disease.  I know we discussed this earlier and it was decided to keep corneal ulcer and corneal abrasion and their respective human and veterinary information separate, but in veterinary medicine the term corneal ulcer is used whether or not the etiology is inflammatory or traumatic.  I don't know who started that trend, but that's the way it is.  My concern is that this article is going to confuse anyone looking for information on the human condition.  I'll wait a few days for discussion before moving it.  --Joelmills 00:58, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
