Talk:Edward Dwyer

message: Was he a private during the battle for Hill 60? I have a copy of the Boy's Own Annual for 1915-16 which refers to him as Lieutenant E. Dwyer, although a Lance Corporal at the time of the German assault on Hill 60. I'm not sure how reliable this is as a reference. PekingSpring (talk) 21:07, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Private Dwyer? 

message: According to the 1901 and the 1911 census Dwyer was younger than he said he was. (That's presuming I have the right one,)His birth appears to be registered in 1898 in Fulham. To be sure - who were his parents - anyone know? Brakn (talk) 15:40, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Talk:The Adolescent

message: Currently the article resides at "The Raw Youth". Near as I can tell, the Russian word "Подросток" translates to something like "teenager" suggesting "The Adolescent" might be the most appropriate. Are there any strong arguments why "The Raw Youth" might be preferred, or perhaps eve "An Accidental Family"? Jason Quinn (talk) 03:11, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Raw Youth vs The Adolescent vs An Accidental Family 

message: "Whereas the young of Arkady's time embraced a very negative opinion of Russian culture in contrast to Western or European culture."
Please fix this. It's substandard writing.

Talk:List of oracular statements from Delphi

message: There's an incomplete sentence here that seems to have been so for some time:
In 361 CE, despite the attempt by the Emperor Julian revive the Oracle by removing Hadrian's plug and to exempt the temple from taxation and protect its priesthood,

thread_title: Later Oracles of the Roman Period, 361 CE

message: Mainly due to poetic licence. Here is some more litteral translations.
560 BC 
οἶδα δ᾽ ἐγὼ ψάμμου τ᾽ ἀριθμὸν καὶ μέτρα θαλάσσης,
καὶ κωφοῦ συνίημι, καὶ οὐ φωνεῦντος ἀκούω.
ὀδμή μ᾽ ἐς φρένας ἦλθε κραταιρίνοιο χελώνης
ἑψομένης ἐν χαλκῷ ἅμ᾽ ἀρνείοισι κρέεσσιν,
ᾗ χαλκὸς μὲν ὑπέστρωται, χαλκὸν δ᾽ ἐπιέσται.
I know both the number of (the grains of) sand and the measure of the sea,
and I am conscious of (i.e. I understand) the mute, and hear the ones who do not speak. 
To my sense came the smell of a hard-shelled tortoise,
boiling in a bronze (pot, cauldron..) with the flesh of a lamb, 
which both under is bronze and over is bronze.
ἀλλ᾽ ὅταν ἡμίονος βασιλεὺς Μήδοισι γένηται,
καὶ τότε, Λυδὲ ποδαβρέ, πολυψήφιδα παρ᾽ Ἕρμον
φεύγειν μηδὲ μένειν μηδ᾽ αἰδεῖσθαι κακός εἶναι.
But when the Medes have a mule as king,
then, tender-footed Lydian, by the stone-strewn Hermus
flee and do not stay, and be not ashamed to be craven.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Servus Triviae (talk • contribs) 04:54, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  67 AD 

message: For example, the last prophecy. Sources say it was actually to emperor Julian, and the wording was 
"Tell to the king that the carven hall is fallen in decay;
Apollo has no chapel left, no prophesying bay,
No talking spring. The stream is dry that had so much to say."
I am tempted to just take out that whole prophecy because it makes so little sense. Why would a christian emperor ask for advice from the long defeated oracle? but putting in a "dubious" tag will be good enough.75.73.114.111 (talk) 23:02, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

message: "(Unaccountably, the posibility of a villain sexually interested in a 14-year old girl does not seem to have occurred to Holmes, though such people existed at the time of writing as at present.) "
If you want to put it back, so so in an "analysis" section. Don't point out plot holes in the main summary.
Besides, who is to say this is a real plot hole? I am sure we can agree the sensibilities of the time did not encourage Doyle to write about such deviations, and I find nothing strange whatsoever that Doyle had Holmes ignore this possibility. 85.227.226.168 18:33, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

They boycott Wisconsin cheese, thereby driving "The Cheese Man" out of office as his milk price supports are considered "golden fleece". Without his interference, by modern times we have solar power satellites and a lunar colony. And Heinlein gets the Russians to pay their way to Mars with some extra nukes.

While speculative fiction is much more mainstream in the story, I felt you were going a bit far and I didn't feel like breaking it down so far.  And I'd question whether it is unnecessary detail.

Talk:The Roads Must Roll

message: One of the themes of "The Roads Must Roll" is the conflict between duty and entitlement.
The functionalist revolutionaries speak for entitlement: their view is that since the road engineers perform a function vital to society, they should receive greater status and rewards, and should stand up for their entitlement to those rewards. The opposing view, represented by the engineers' military-like culture, is that of duty: that the engineers must do whatever it takes to keep the roads rolling, and therefore that they do not have the right to down tools in protest.
Neither side of this conflict is presented as optimal or perfect. Heinlein shows the romanticism of duty by, for instance, inventing new lyrics for the Caisson Song ("The Army Goes Rolling Along") for the engineers. But this romanticism is shown to be manufactured by management ... and ultimately ineffective to prevent sabotage and disaster. Likewise, the protesting workers are shown to have some legitimate complaints, but take their protest too far under the leadership of an ambitious organizer.
Ultimately, the roads system is shown to be unstable. It is so demanding of maintenance that its workers apparently must be regimented in military fashion and taught an exceptional level of esprit de corps to be sufficiently vigilant to keep the roads rolling. But this same esprit de corps and exaggerated perception of their own importance feed directly into the functionalist notion of entitlement.
For a similar view of a maintenance engineer's duty towards his work, see Rudyard Kipling's "The Sons of Martha":
 They do not preach that their God will rouse them 
     a little before the nuts work loose.
 They do not teach that His Pity allows them
     to drop their job when they dam'-well choose.
 As in the thronged and the lighted ways, 
     so in the dark and the desert they stand,
 Wary and watchful all their days 
     that their brethren's day may be long in the land.
