Talk:Jerry Kerr

message: I've added in some concrete dates with regard to his time at St Bernards (joined 1937 from Alloa, left 1939 for DUFC) and managing Alloa but others are harder to come by and a bit contradictory:
*Mike Watson has a J Kerr appearing 5 times for United in 1947-48 - assuming this is him, what did he do during 46-47, nevermind during the war years?
*Bob Crampsey has him "moving up the road to Dundee" latterly, although without specifying what he did there. Coach/scout/director?
*Archie MacPherson's obituary suggests he played for Rangers immediately after the war, not before. Perhaps he guested for Rangers during the war when United went into abeyance, then signed for them officially at it's conclusion, as many guests did. Rangers were running two teams at the time, a first X1 in the Southern League and a second XI in the North-Eastern, so would have required a large squad.
*Archie MacPherson also suggests he played until he was 41 (1953) and MacPherson's chronology seems to suggest he was a player-coach at Berwick Rangers, rather than an out-and-out manager, with a career path of Berwick -> Peebles -> Alloa -> United. No dates, so a bit dubious.
Finally, a little bit of trivia, which I'm not sure is important enough to merit a place in the article - Kerr's debut for St Bernards was a 7-1 victory in 1937-38: at Tannadice! Strange how football works sometimes. Caledonian Place 18:48, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Avnei Eitan

message: There has been long discussion at WikiProject Israel Palestine Collaboration/Current Article Issues about adding the illegality issue in all settlement article: There is now consensus to have the sentence: "The international community considers Israeli settlements in (the Golan Heights/the West Bank/East Jerusalem) illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this." in all relevant articles, but its not clear yet exactly where in the article, I have tried to open up a discussion at IPCCAI:  but I haven't gotten any replies to my latest posts. So now I'm just adding the sentence as I had explained at the IPCCAI discussion.

thread_title:  Deletion requested 

message: Hello Flamingoflorida -- I let you know in another kind note earlier today that this series of articles is a collaboration of disinterested editors.  You are not one.  If, in my best judgement, I abbreviated the name of a bank in its sixth and seventh mention in an article, that is something for which I will answer to my fellow editors.  As to the deletion that that the bank was owned by the family in 1983, this was a factor in the litigation.  Citation to follow ... when I get around to it.  In a normal case, I would let such a deletion slide, but your ferocious editing with purposeful WP:POV is a problem. The accepted method for dealing with an assertion with which you disagree would be to challenge it with {CN}. If you continue to edit, I will take such steps as are required to keep you from editing any article in the category of Recanati family. In short, to be blunt, it's not your friggin' article.

Talk:Beitegen

message: Taken at face value, the info doesn't make sense:
*1596: all Muslims.
*1875, Guérin: ca. 200, all Druze; recent large dislocation.
*1881, SWP: 300 Muslims and 100 Druze.
*1887 (ca.), Schumacher: about 1,215; all Druze.
*1922, Mandate: 895 of 902 were Druze.
What's happening here? Constant large or total exchange of population? (See also very large, but not complete flight from Turkish army conscription before 1875). Some surveys less accurate than others? Also massive fluctuation in numbers, up and down.

Talk:Beth Nimrah

message: David, hi, here we meet again :) I see it was you who introduced Samuel Klein's article as a source, which I kind of guessed, as it is probably only you who would know about it and also where to find it. Maybe you can help out a bit: the Palästina-Studien was a series of monographs published in Vienna and Berlin, in German, by Klein. Is this really an article in Hebrew, or is it in German, with some Hebrew terms offered in a transliterated form? Also, vol. 1, issue 1 (1923) can be found online, but I couldn't find issue 3 (1925). Maybe you know where to look for it? Thank you and all the best, Arminden (talk) 00:58, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

Talk:City of Darwin

message: There is an inconsistency in the quoted area of the City of Darwin and of Greater Darwin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwin,_Northern_Territory). Both are quoted as 112 square kilometres. Someone is wrong: If I drive 18 kilometres north an then 40 kilometres south east, I'm still in Greater Darwin. That's already over 700 square kilometres. Darwin Harbour, which is part of Greater Darwin is seven time larger than Sydney Harbour. Is Sydney Harbour excluded from Sydney's area calculations? The new Darwin electoral division of Spillett is listed by the Australian Electoral Commission at 127 square kilometres; that is larger than the "official" 112 square kilometres for the whole of Darwin and that is only one electoral division. 220.235.226.215 (talk) 21:15, 30 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk:WDBM

message: WKME in Shaw Hall (where I started in campus radio in the fall of '66)
WBRS in Brody Hall (wkme and wbrs always argued over who was first on the air)
WOND in Wonders Hall complex
WFEE in Fee-Acres complex
WEAK also in Acres, IIRC
and the network central station
WMSN, in the basement of Student Services, one station to bind them all ... or so the affiliates claimed we were trying to do. Looks like it happened.
I think we went on the air from the "new" central station (WMSN) first in early January, 1968. Might have been earlier, because we were on the air in the fall of '67 (transmitters in those dorms without stations were installed during that summer); we were off the air over Christmas break of '67, and then built the station in ~140 sleepless hours once MSU Receiving delivered all of the ordered equipment which they'd stored up over break, thinking there was no one to accept it at the station. We were definitely on the air in 1968, I announced the death of MLK from the dj's chair in main, having first locked the station doors.
Maybe this should go into an article about the history of MSN. I've no RS for this, I was just there. You may find an air check of Dane Errickson or Hairy Heffalump; guilty.

This is Britain, so it would be "wurselling", double L.
But "wurzel" is a way of saying mangelwurzel, a vegetable mainly used as animal fodder.
So the game could be "wurzelling", where "wurzel" has a connotation of country bumpkin.
There is in fact a wurzel-based sport called "mangold hurling". See the above link.
