message: You may find it helpful while reading or editing articles to look at a bibliography of   Intelligence Citations, posted for the use of all Wikipedians who have occasion to edit articles on human intelligence and related issues. I happen to have circulating access to a huge academic research library at a university with an active research program in those issues (and to another library that is one of the ten largest public library systems in the United States) and have been researching these issues since 1989. You are welcome to use these citations for your own research.

Talk:Harry Bradshaw (footballer, born 1873)

message: He's Harry Bradshaw in Doug Lamming's Who's Who of England players and especially any number of contemporary sources (the only sources that matter), including the Liverpool Mercury 5 May 1899 ('Harry Bradshaw, of Tottenham Hotspur, has signed for the Thames Ironworks F.C.'). Ed. 3 April 1900: Tottenham v Thames Ironworks 'for the benefit of the widow and family of the late Harry Bradshaw, captain of the latter club, who expired suddenly on Christmas Day. About a thousand spectators patronised the match'. York Herald 27 Dec 1899: headline DEATH OF AN OLD INTERNATIONAL: 'the sudden death of Harry Bradshaw, which took place at his residence at Tottenham on Monday evening. Two months ago he received an injury to his head, which it is presumed brought about his decease, but an inquest is to be held. Bradshaw originally played for Liverpool, during which time he represented England against Ireland.' Dundee Courier 28 Dec 1899: 'Death of Harry Bradshaw - A Famous International Passes Away....An English international, Bradshaw'. Morning Post (London) 29 Dec 1899: 'the death of Thomas Henry (Harry) Bradshaw, aged 26 years [!!], an International footballer'. Western Mail 29 Dec 1899: 'the inquest on the body of Harry Bradshaw, the well-known footballer'. Harry Bradshaw also in Association Football And The Men Who Made It (1905) and The Book Of Football (1906). The Book Of Football confirms moved from Liverpool to Tottenham to Thames Ironworks and died young. UFCN 13 Nov 1896 confirms Bradshaw of Liverpool and England: 'Wish we had a few Bradshaws here.' Penny Illustrated Paper & Illustrated Times (London) 6 Feb 1909: 'Harry Bradshaw used to be at Tottenham'.
Anyone seen a CONTEMPORARY source calling him Tom...?
Cris Freddi
Well, I have! The Syd King quote in the Book Of Football, of course! Apologies for missing that. 'Tom' seems to be in the monority compared with 'Harry', but it looks like he may have been known as both...

Talk:William Trigg Gannaway

message: Gannaway's death date was added in the original revision of this article, by User:Bluedog423 back in 2006. Does anyone have a source for it? -- 152.3.118.47 (talk) 21:49, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Good question - it was several years ago, so I don't remember the source, but I don't think I made it up! However, looking through various sources now, I see the year of death as 1910 or 1911 and not 1902, so it probably should be changed and source added. I think 1910 is correct: Findagrave "Death: Jun. 5, 1910;" Duke libraries: Guide to the William T. Gannaway papers, 1853-1906 says "[h]e died in 1911." However, Duke libraries also gives the birth date of 1826 instead of the 1825 I see everywhere else, so perhaps they're a year off on both accords. -Bluedog423Talk 13:22, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Thomas Burgess (bishop of Salisbury)

message: HELP PLEASE - TO CORRECT THE INFOBOX
Help please. The infobox for Bishop Burgess is misleading in its present form. It reads :
Bishop of Salisbury / Church - Church of England / Diocese - Diocese of London / Installed	1803 / Predecessor	John Fisher / Successor	Edward Denison
Burgess was Bishop of St Davids 1803-1825 (predecessor Lord George Murray; successor Jenkinson) and Bishop of Salisbury 1825-1837 (predecessor Fisher, successor Denison). He was consecrated bishop on 17/7/1803 at St Davids and translated to Salisbury on 17/6/1825. He was a prebendary of Salisbury 1787 - 1803, a canon and prebendary of Durham 1791-1825. He was never Bishop of London and seems to have no relevant connection to the diocese of London. According to the CCED he was ordained deacon 6/06/1784 by John Butler, Bishop of Oxford. According to Tout (1886 DNB) he was ordained deacon and priest in 1784 by Bishop Cornwall of Winchester. See the Clergymen of the Church of England database - Burgess is CCEd Person ID: 23281 , at : 
I do not understand how to operate the template for the "Infobox Christian leader", and I do not want to damage it by clumsy and inappropriate editing. 
Could someone please help to correct the current Infobox ??
(1) I would prefer that the Infobox refers both to St Davids and to Salisbury. Burgess was of considerable importance in the history of the Established Church in Wales (see John Davies, History of Wales 2017 pp 351-2 - I have added this reference to the Wikipedia entry) - his work at St Davids is probably now of rather more interest than that at Salisbury. 
(2) But in any event (a) the Diocese of London should be deleted ; (b) if Salisbury alone is to feature in the Infobox then the translation year 1825 should replace 1803 ; (c) if St Davids and Salisbury are both to appear, then 1803 should be given as the date of his consecration as bishop and appt to St Davids, and 1825 for translation to Salisbury ; (d) Fisher and Denison are appropriate for Salisbury, Murray and Jenkinson would be the equivalent for St Davids.

Talk:Thomas Chandler Haliburton

message: With reluctance, I deleted left thumbnail image box of Brenton Halliburton.png that was captioned as Thomas Chandler Haliburton because Brenton is a different person from Thomas. Either the image file itself is mislabeled as Brenton, or the caption is erroneously indicating the image is of Thomas. When a mislabeled image goes feral elsewhere on the web, it is hard to expunge the error across the web. The discrepancy needs to be resolved. Before reverting, would someone with enough resources definitively verify if the file image is in fact of Thomas, and rename the file accordingly. IGE (talk) 21:14, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
Talk:Sankt Pölten

message: Back in December of 2014, this page was moved to St Pölten in clear contravention of the previous two consensus decisions (above) to leave it at Sankt Pölten. The move was only half done, as the article lead was left talking about Sankt Pölten without any explanation as to how that place related to the St Pölten in the article title. And the two navigation templates at the foot of the template were not changed, this negating the link->bold effect that should be seen when viewing the template through that article. Because of the counter-consensus nature of the move, and its incomplete nature, I have reverted the move. I am agnostic on which is the better article name, but just ask that any move be properly discussed and then done correctly. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 12:09, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Thomas Duffus Hardy

message: The "Single Source" tag on this page is rather silly, as many of Hardy's editions are cited with dates in the text, and speak for themselves as references. To list them as references in addition to having them in the text would be a labour of unnecessary reduplication: to consign them solely to footnote/references and merely nod at them in the article text would be to diminish the value of the text and a sense of the scale of Hardy's contribution. The virtue of listing them separately might be to provide a systematic table of links to digitized copies. But whatever the solution, to insist on the addition of inline citations for the sake of it seems to me to be supererogatory. Eebahgum (talk) 17:58, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Zisi

message: The phrasing of this subsection, namely, "See also", is a little odd.  As it stands, it says that the Great Learning and the Chung Yung constituted the foundation of Confucian Orthodoxy.  This is a defensible standpoint, but the usual judgement is that the Four Books constituted this foundation.  If that, more normal, meaning is what was intended, one must insert a `which' at the beginning of the clause.  Which I will do, in due time.
Or perhaps the confusion is about "constituted".  It is not a synonym for 'makes up a part of'.    — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.236.211.247 (talk) 03:53, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

message: I have just been watching Michael Portillo's Great Railway Journeys and, travelling in the Highlands, he investigates the history of tartan and two brothers, English frauds posing as Sobieski Stuarts, claimed to have an old book on Scottish tartans which was used to reintroduce them after they were banned after the Battle of Culloden. As it turns out, this book was fake.
I decided to investigate this Polish-Scottish connection, dating back to Bonnie Prince Charlie as it seems a very interesting one. He was the son of the Old Pretender, Prince James, son of exiled Stuart King, James II & VII and his wife Maria Clementina Sobieska and great-grandson of John III Sobieski, most famous for the victory over the Ottoman Turks in the 1683 Battle of Vienna. It is John Sobieski who features as the grand hetman in this novel and who makes his dramatic entrance at the end of the book to attend the funeral of Michał Wołodyjowski.

message: The lede to this article described Hamilton as a "Scottish philosopher and author." Neither the text nor any of the sources support his identification as a philosopher; possibly someone confused him with his brother, a "metaphysician" according to the musty public-domain source this article is mostly a copy of. I changed the lede to "soldier and author" and amended the PERSONDATA and categories accordingly. I assume he was categorized based on the former lede. 
I seem to recall seeing his book Men and Manners in America digitized at some website espousing libertarian values. (I don’t have a current link, and I may have this wrong.) That's not enough to support a definition of him as a "philosopher," in my view. Anyway the definition would need explanation in the article. — ℜob C. alias ALAROB 22:49, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
