Talk:Itamar Marcus

message: User:Suladna, the POV I'm talking about is the one you've put in an earlier edit summary - "it is noteworthy information as he is a settler" - which is a POV that you are trying to push by emphasizing Efrat's location, "in the Occupied West Bank". We do not normally do this for people living in the WB, or anywhere. (see Bassam Shakaa for example). This article is not about Efrat - if people want to know where Efrat is, they click on the link.

Wistrich Random House, 1200 pp." TNR is major talking head media, and since it's on ALD the review will be discussed all over the English speaking academic world by tomorrow. (A quick dodge on actually reading a 1200 page book!) I never heard of Herf but after that review, I wanted to know more. I see in the bio some major prizes, publishers, Harvard UP, so on.

Talk:Johannes Grant

message: Lots of modern works mention that he is "likely" Scottish, up to the point that it is taken and published as a fact, without even noting any alternatives.
In the original sources Johannes is, afaik, mentioned by Leonard of Chios and Georgios Sphrantzes, both calling him a German. Leonard adds the "Grandi" which is most likely a descriptive, from the contemporary Italian grande (from Latin grandis) and meaning, among others, "great", "able" or "impressive". Given his performance, this interpretation seems to me highly likely, though one can ignore this reference and simply claim it was a name.
It seems that Runciman is the first historian who speculated about him being Scottish, and all other "Scottish" references go back to his. Is there any work of him beyond the pretty short speculation in his "Fall of Constantinople" (p84, footnote on p.217) that bases upon "grandi" and later "grando" meaning "Grant" instead of "great", and is a name more common in Scotland then in Germany?
I know that Dunnet speculates for her fictive Scottish version (also based on Runcimans assumption) on a connection to a family of Grants in Aberdeen with relations to the order of Rhodes, but this does not explain in the least why both contemporary sources who have known Johannes explicity would give his nationality as German.
If Runciman or others have published more on Johannes/Johns Scottish heritage, it should be referenced here, or the article should make clear that his Scottish heritance is based upon Runcimans speculation as a "may be" alone. ASchudak (talk) 12:47, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The original manuscript of the letter by Leonard of Chios to Pope Niccolò V does no more exists and no one can say if it was a misunderstanding of the Dominican Archbishop of Mitilene or of an unknown copyist to write “Johannis Grande Alemani” (of the German John Grande) instead of “Johannis Grandi Arimini” (of John Grandi – in Italian Giovanni Grandi - of Rimini).

Talk:John Tunstall

message: The upper image of Tunstall has a provenance, curated by an academic source, unlike the other image, which has no provenance that I can find, and was uploaded to Wikimedia Commons by a user who claims to be employed by the Phillips Collection. The same user has uploaded other images of persons that he asserts are genuine, but he has provided no provenance for any of them, other than claiming they are from the Phillips collection.
There was a discussion on that user's talk page about this issue, which has been raised by other users, where he has stated "I also have a signed contract from the owners that allows me to promote the collection. I can submit a copy of the contract." Has he done so? I see no indication that the problem has been resolved. Carlstak (talk) 05:11, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

message: Murphy and Dolan may have been Irish and Tunstall may have been an Englishman trying to muscle into their racket but McSween was Canadian and the vast majority of people they hired were American, If you look over the names of the hired gunmen you will see Billy the Kid (McCarty) was Irish American (although sometimes portrayed as a WASP in fiction) fighting on tunstall's side, while names among the Murphy Dolan hires include British names like Beckwith Roberts and Baker. No wonder Wiki is looked down on when articles contain nonsensical claims like that.

message: A recent anon edit claimed that Toleman ran three Ralts in F2, but the editor failed to provide a source; per policy about unsourced statements, I have reverted it and opened this discussion here. GrandPrix.com is one of the sources that state that two drivers were employed; so who, if anyone, had a third chassis? If this is claimed to be a spare chassis, that needs to be made clear in the article. If there were three drivers, it needs to be cited, particularly as it contradicts the article's primary sources. If such a source can be found, please add it to this discussion for use in any later amendment. Adrian M. H. 12:48, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

i recently uploaded a new version of the toleman logo i created from the one used on the nose of the cars but it was too big for the info box, since i cannot fix it, i have reverted to the old file again just for now,
if someone can change it for me i would be much obliged, since i do not think the current logo was actually ever used by Toleman, or at least i cant find any evidence anywhere that it ever was, it looks like it was just placed here from a fan made wiki based on nothing substantial
at least the one i have uploaded was actually used on the nose of Toleman cars

Private data, which is where you find captions (an example of a private data elementary stream) is an elementary stream. The standard itself says it - I don't know why you are talking about PES. The enclosed data isn't particularly relevant, and only confuses the explanation of the concept of elementary stream. Would you list the MP3 file format on Computer file? No - and for the same reason, I am removing the audio stream format. Nphase 21:22, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: This article is about elementary streams (ES), not Packetized Elementary Stream, which is where you find stream type or stream id.

The difference between your analogy and this article is that ES has relatively few types with similar header structure.  I doubt people after reading the current article understand what ES is.

Possible reference to Happy Face Killer on The Mentalist
The main recurring storyline on the CBS drama The Mentalist is Patrick Jane's (Simon Baker) efforts to find "Red John", a serial killer. Red John's "signature" is a red-painted happy face that runs slightly. Whether or not the producers of the show stole the idea from Keith Jesperson remains to be seen.
The reason is that it's just speculation. There is nothing to prove that the character from The Mentalist is a reference to Jesperson, other than the "red-painted happy face". Bzcoolness (talk) 02:58, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

the father more important, and thus delegates the subsection to him.
I'd recommend considering creating a separate article (aka starting with the daughter in that new article), and in that article one could relate to it. But right now it's so weird how there is a lot of content added under "Jesperson's daughter" but not even an article about her, as a person? How is this fair? This is a general
problem. Wikipedia focuses "unequally". Again - nothing against the facts, but the way how it is presented in the larger context, seems
very unfair and biased. As it is, wikipedia adds content BASED on Keith, rather than on the daughter as such. 2A02:8388:1602:6D80:3AD5:47FF:FE18:CC7F (talk) 15:26, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
