thread_title:  Needs Photo of the Grapes 

message: Currently, Gouveio redirects here. OCW (p. 319) states that the Gouveio/Verdelho of Alentejo and Dão is not the same variety as the Verdelho of Madeira and Australia. Instead it is supposed to be the same as Godello of Spain. However, VIVC has separate entries on Godello and Gouveio so I'm not sure if it is correct to redirect Gouveio there, but in any case a redirect to "common" Verdelho (of Madeira fame) doesn't seem correct.

thread_title: Translation Re-Worked

message: I have written a few articles about industrial tramways recently, and start to believe that this term would be a good equivalent to Feldbahn. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 18:19, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Feldbahn is a much wider term than industrial tramway and not exactly translatable. Agricultural or military railways are not industrial or tramways, for example. Langenscheidt translates Feldbahn as "light narrow-gauge railway" and dict.cc as "field railway" or "light railway" (but not "industrial railway"). The Railway Dictionary has an entry for Feldbahn, describing it as a military light railway or other temporary railway, but has no entry for "industrial tramway" at all. Historical sources about the German Feldbahn troops tend to use "field railway", but that also may mean other things. So, much as I prefer to translate foreign terms, it's clear that reliable English sources use Feldbahn and I think that's the safest option if we want to stay faithful to the real meaning.

Talk:Joseph Adhémar

message: NOTE ALSO:
The main page for Joseph Adhemar states that "Adhemar theorised about the thickness and predicted the Antarctic ice sheet (the continent had not been sighted) by...". But his book was published in 1842, and in 1821 the first documented landing on mainland Antarctica was by the American sealer John Davis in Western Antarctica on 7 February 1821, although some historians dispute this claim.

Talk:Themes of C. J. Cherryh's works

message: I disagree with the statement that "it is difficult to find an indecisive protagonist anywhere in her fiction". To the two named in the current article, I would add: Tully of the Chanur universe, Joshua Talley in Downbelow station, it seems to me there was a male character in Forty Thousand in Gehenna, and Bren Cameron in the Foreigner stories frequently seems unable to choose between 2 or more untennable choices until he is dragged out of danger by Banichi and Jago, and it seems to me at least one more of the Alliance Universe (or maybe the Kif universe?) stories that has a 'helpless captive' of the Tully/Talley mold. 207.69.137.23 14:39, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Bernard Frénicle de Bessy

message: Typically if one refers to this fellow by surname it would be Frénicle, right? That's what I seem to find online. Is there any reason why the category sorting keys on Bessy? Ntsimp 13:35, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Category sorting 

message: The article says "in 1693, he described all 880 essentially different normal magic squares of order 4." Given that he had been dead for 18 years, that was pretty amazing. Wolfram's MathWorld makes the same error. Xanthoxyl < 17:14, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  1693 

message: The full name is Bernard Frénicle de Bessy, so I suppose the given name is Bernard. But how should the "short" form of the surname be written:
* Frénicle (seen 8 times in the article)
* Bessy (seen twice in the article)
* Frénicle de Bessy (used by our source MacTutor)
* de Bessy (used by one quote (J Earls) seen in MacTutor)
As of now, we are being inconsistent. /80.71.142.78 (talk) 18:54, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: It's actually "Bernard Frénicle, chevalier de Bessy" (i.e., ... Knight of Bessy). So his (short) family name is "Frénicle". The way his name is written in the "References" section, "de Bessy,  Frénicle: ..." is totally nonsensical, it suggests that "Frénicle" is his first (given) name and "de Bessy" his last (family) name. But his family name clearly is "Frénicle", and his given name is "Bernard". The suffix "de Bessy" names probably his castle (there's a "chateau de Bessy" in the near East of Paris, is the family from there?) or is maybe just made up in order to make the family name sound more "noble". — MFH:Talk 23:34, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Szolem Mandelbrojt

message: Here is what we have in the text right now: "One of them, his nephew Benoit Mandelbrot, was to discover the Mandelbrot set...". This seems to be wrong. If you go to the same Wikipedia and read the entry "Mandelbrot set" you will learn that what is called today the Mandelbrot set was not discovered by Mandelbrot (and the discoverers are given). You can also find the information there that the name "Mandelbrot set" was coined later by Adrien Douady (in order to honor Mandelbrot).Math45-oxford (talk) 13:47, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Periclase

message: There seems to be a lack of agreement regarding the naming of solid solutions. In an earlier version, I had referred to the Mg-rich minerals of the periclase-wüstite solid solution series as ferropericlase, but this was misinterpreted by User:Vsmith in an subsequent edit as referring to an Fe-rich mineral. In practice, both terms seem to be used as synonyms in the literature, so I have removed the pertinent remarks on the naming and clarified that in the text about the lower mantle, it is indeed an Mg-rich solid solution. If someone decides to remark on the naming, it would be desirable to provide a reference to an official mineralogical organization; I haven't been able to find something useful that reflects actual use.--TomR (talk) 01:30, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Frank Kofsky

message: This stub lacks attribution for the last sentence, which is by no means self-evident, and reads like fan mail.  It should be removed or cited.  There is a dearth of biographical information such as family, upbringing, and education, and the assertion that Kofsky was a musician is unsupported.  I knew him as a rigid Trotskyist critic for the Los Angeles Free Press in the 60s, and his writings of that era are in my opinion uneducated about music, other than as a vehicle for political polemics.  Again, if he was a musician, a citation is needed. Josephbyrd (talk) 20:27, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

message: This is completely scandalous to insert your opinion in a wikipedia article. Why the study of the religion is linked to "brainwashing". The neutrality on wikipedia is a fable for the naive ones. That's scandalous.
The links shouldn't give an opinion on the article "brainwashing", and even the opposite, "religious persecution", are not directly linked to the article. And authoritarism? Is it a joke or something.
This page seems to think that the study of religion is only held by Texas CSSR, that's very ethno-centrist and religious-centrist. Do you think the only religion is christianity and this is the only group to study it? It seems a promotion page to me.

He disdained the huge amounts of money some companies spend on their logos (might have been around the time that NBC came up with their "new" million dollar trapezoid N logo)*. Basically, Brusger drew the logo on a piece of paper with a crayon at a total cost of around 3 cents. I'll keep looking, but does anyone know the source of that story?

Talk:Shohoku High School basketball team

message: I just reverted the addition of a few paragraphs to Sakuragi's section, regarding the character being based on a real-life basketball player who'd died in a car crash.
Firstly, I reverted it because it was sourced to a personal weblog, which isn't a verifiable source according to Wikipedia policy.
Secondly, a Google search reveals no sources about this particular player, apart from the exact passage that was copied and pasted into the article, translated into various languages (including Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Chinese and English).  This leads me to question the veracity of this information; why hasn't anyone ever written about this popular character in a popular manga series being based on a real person?
I am not denying the possibility that the character Sakuragi was based on a real person, but due to the two aforementioned reasons (poor sourcing and questionable veracity) I don't think it should be added to Sakuragi's section.  Of course, if someone can come up with verifiable secondary sources, that'd be perfectly fine.  Bhamv 06:16, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
