Talk:Lady Franklin's Lament

message: I have never heard this called anything other than Lord Franklin. The opening: 'Swinging in my hammock...' suggests that the singer is a seaman rather than Lady Franklin; I doubt that Lady Franklin ever slept in hammock.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.105.46.22 (talk) 19:01, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

text: Certainly the version by Martin Carthy is called simply "Lord Franklin". Martinevans123 (talk) 19:24, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The point of view of the song changes -- early versions opened and closed with stanzas from Lady Franklin's viewpoint, with the middle stanzas from a sailor's perspective. Martin Carthy's version, which is the most common today, shrunk it from 11 stanzas to 4, and hence the confusion. You can see an early print here: Clevelander96 (talk) 19:36, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: That's a very useful link and one that would be a real bonus to the article, I think. Is it dated at all? It does indeed seem that most of the song is from Lady Franklin's viewpoint. I see also this version does not have the "Eskimo in his skin canoe" - was that an addition my Carthy himself? (I'd be surprised) Martinevans123 (talk) 19:44, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Jim Cannon (footballer, born 1953)

message: There is a statement in the article that Cannon played briefly for Bristol Rovers (in 1988–9). I can, so far, find no reference to this & his stats at the A-Z Soccer database do not show this, but do indicate his move to Croydon F.C., which was not previously included in the article. Discussion on the BBS CPFC forum seems to maintain that the Bristol Rovers reference is an error, although there is some conjecture that Cannon helped out former team-mate & then Rovers manager, Gerry Francis on a non-contract or "trial" basis when the club was in a difficult period. If anyone has a seasonal handbook from the succeeding term (I.e. 1989-90) e.g. Playfair or NoTW/Nationwide, it would confirm whether Cannon did in fact make an appearance. In the meantime I have left the reference in the article but have marked as lacking citation. Eagleash (talk) 20:08, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Jim Carr

message: "Businessman" seems like a strange descriptor of someone who has never run a business.  As I read the article, the closest he's come is running the Manitoba Business Council (an advocacy group).  His other jobs have been as a journalist, oboist, and university administrator.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.72.129.8 (talk) 15:44, 8 October 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: "From 1992 to 1997, Carr was on the editorial board of the Winnipeg Free Press. In 1998, he became president and CEO of the Business Council of Manitoba,[2] an organization which he co-founded. Carr is also a board member on the Canada West Foundation, and the Winnipeg Airports Authority, and well as vice-president of the Performing Arts Consortium of Winnipeg, and a director of the Manitoba Arts Stabilization Fund." Seems like being on the board/VP/CEO of these is enough to qualify as a businessman. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 15:54, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Stay Together (Suede song)

message: Hi —Thanks for your work on en.WP. It's appreciated. I don't understand why you're reverting the standard fixes that  has made to this article. He is one of our most respected "gnome" editors, who performs valuable maintenance on the site. 
The community decided in a huge RfC in 2009 that linking had to be more closely regulated (there is was directly concerned with chronological units, but we already had in place guidelines about common dictionary-type terms). Among the reasons is the capacity of linking to self-dilute; in other words, the more you link, the bluer it gets, and the less we're able to use our knowledge and skills as editors to link readers to the more valuable targets related to an article. Words that are likely to be well-known by English-speakers, include CD, London, and New York City (and it's better not expressed, as you've done, as the name of the state too). If a reader doesn't know what "suicide" means, perhaps they should go back to the drawing board. Or they can look it up on their computer dictionary, or type it into the search box; the widely accepted practice is not to place a magic carpet in the prose just because one in 10,000 readers might just happen to want to divert from the article to another. We did also get to a stage where some articles were aesthetically pretty spotty; it becomes not the smooth read we really want to offer them.
Let's ration those to the targets that we might assume are less well-known ("7" vinyl", yup; "Riverside Studios", yup ...).
It would be great if you helped us to maintain good linking practice in other articles, too. Please ask me if you have any questions. Tony (talk)  11:18, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: One of Wikipedia's most respected gnome or not, it doesn't prevent him to use a specific edit summary instead of one of these auto-generated edit summaries coming from semi-automatic tools. Now I understand why some links were automatically removed by this user (eg. links to "rock" and "pop"). Maybe should he be a bit more careful about it ?

Talk:Jim Coburn

message: There already is a gas tax in NH. Jim Coburn proposed eliminating it for the summer tourism season and that idea was quickly rejected by Gov. Lynch. He said that some time in the future (many years down the road) the gas tax could be increased to pay for incentives to use ethanol and hydrogen cell fuel. The line that says Jim announced his support for an gas tax is silly and should be revised (or removed). I also must disclose that I was a paid consultant on his campaign, and I am a close friend of Jim. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pelhamgop (talk • contribs) 06:42, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Several longtime Democrat governors were voted out of office, including Mario Cuomo and Ann Richards.

message: I removed this:
Devine claimed to have heard "nothing" about a possible prosecution despite it being widely reported over a number of months that his case had been referred to the Director of Public Prosecutions and that he was "astonished and devastated" by the impending prosecution. 
My rationale is that the words "nothing" and "astonished and devastated" do not appear in the text of the cited source.  I also think this is likely synthesis and undue weight designed to make him appear to be lying to the public about the status of his case.  I can easily imagine how he might well have been both "astonished and devastated" to hear that the case had been referred to the Director of Public Prosecutions, and then for a reporter to have more knowledge than him at a particular moment in time that the prosecution would go forward in fact, and him correctly saying that he had heard nothing about that.
Unless a reliable non-tabloid source which is not an editorial against him documents that he has been inconsistent in statements to the press, we can't make that judgment ourselves.  Precision is really important in BLPs.--Jimbo Wales (talk) 16:12, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

message: Since the article is to remain, I think it would be important to inject some skepticism of this man's claims about his name. As far as I can tell "Hubert Blaine Wolfeschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorff" was his legal name that appeared on official documents. In the 1950s he appeared on I've Got a Secret, one of the few sources available other than appearances in the Guinness Book of World Records, and he gave no indication at all that his name contained any further content beyond the article's title. This strongly suggests he adopted the dozens of forenames and mini-space-opera-surname variant rather than being given it at birth. The earliest source given by the article for this version is a greetings card he sent to somebody in 1963, for a man who had been alive for 49 years by that point surely there must be some record somewhere if it was given at birth, unless he merely adopted it during his adult life after his television appearance.
If there is a Wolfe Sr, then surely there must be a Wolfe Jnr. Is there any evidence at all his son or his father ever used the versions that ran to hundreds of characters? Valethske (talk) 13:08, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
