If I remember correctly, the Gaelic-speaking Catholic Irish in the 18th century attacked any Ulster-Scots Presbyterians that tried to settle in southern Armagh... but you never know.

thread_title:  Photo of Station 

message: Other terms (besides #jackaroo) mentioned in  still need clarification, including ringer; boreman; and grader [driver].
The most detail I've found on the different meanings of "ringer" (and related terms) on Aussie stations (not to be confused with dead ringer, also current Aussie slang) is in the blog article and comments: Cowboy, ringer or stockman? by Lisa Clarke, 27 May 2013.  The description of a "ringer" in stockman (Australia) covers only some of this ground; in particular, it doesn't cover the usage "ringer" to distinguish those stockmen who work in the stock camps from those who work mostly at the head station, i.e. near the owner's or manager's house ("homestead" or "station").
Nor is there a clear etymology for the term "ringer" as used here.
Warning: The following is speculation only; I have no sources for any of it!  Two possibilities spring to mind:
#That, as a seasonal worker only, he was a bit of an outsider to the station's patriarchal social hierarchy, somebody to call on or "ring in" only when economically necessary (the noun form "ring-in" for a substitute has long been used in Australia); and
#That, as a worker based at one of the stock camps that ring the central station, that is, a "ring camp" – an expression which I seem to recall reading many years ago, but memory is notoriously unreliable!
Further research is necessary to clarify these terms with reference to reliable sources.   yoyo (talk) 04:25, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

Talk:John T. Struble

message: The three Struble brothers, John T., Isaac S., and George R., all played significant roles in the early history of Iowa.  Some of John T.'s constructions still stand near the Univ of Iowa campus, notably two churches (the Congregational and Catholic) and the old St Agatha seminary, which is now a refurbished apartment building.  Iowa only became a state in 1846, and the lives of these three brothers offers insight into the formative years of the Hawkeye State.
The "A Fact a Day About Iowa City" article of 1935 indicates that John T.'s father-in-law, William B. Snyder, was superintendent of construction in building the Old Capitol building at Iowa City.  The Iowa City Daily News, 11/28/1916, states that Snyder "designed the Old Capitol, which soon became the first of Iowa university's ... edifices."  However, Harvey W. Henry of Iowa City informs by email that John F. Rague was the chief architect.
Incidental research on John T. revealed a reference re the old capitol building as to how sketchy the plans were by architect John F. Rague, and how Snyder [Virginia Struble's father] had virtually to design the dome himself.  Also Bob Hibbs, Iowa City's resident historian, informs that Snyder discovered a quarry about ten miles upstream on the Iowa River, which contained stone far superior in quality and durability to what was used in the initial phases of the capitol building's construction.  Snyder arranged for extraction from the quarry and transportation to the site.  He had some of the inferior material replaced, and used only the newfound stone in completing the project.  Snyder's work accounts for "Old Cap's" exterior to this day.

Talk:New Milton Town F.C.

message: I have made a minor edit (but an important one which quite a few users are unaware of, including me!) with regards to the sub-heading of External links. According to this page, the external link section should always have the term of External links. If all articles in Wikipedia were to follow this style, the articles in this project would be more consistent in MOS format, raising the professionalism of this encyclopedia. Granted, this may seem such an unimportant observation on my part to some users, but if the idea of consistency is not followed as close as possible, new users and outsiders of the Wikipedia community would take this encyclopedia less seriously. In my humble opinion, it is the observance of these minor detalis that seperate the elite encyclopedias to the good ones. --Siva1979Talk to me 08:20, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

message: I added the page in FCHD for New Milton Town, because I thought this was a useful link for searching for further information about the subject. This was deleted because the FCHD entry for Lymington & New Milton had been mentioned as a source. I know that the two pages in FCHD link to each other, but the Lymington & New Milton page is a historic document, and the New Milton Town page is a current document. So I thought that it was appropriate to add the New Milton Town page, which is not used as a source, in the External links.

Template talk:GraphicNovelBox

message: I am creating Template:Eurocomicbox as a generic infobox for all (or at least as much as possible) European comic books. I had noticed that individual infoboxes for Valerian and for Asterix were already made, that this infobox exists as well, and that the Tintin comics use yet another one, and while I understand and appreciate why these are created and used, I feared that every new series would get its own, almost similar infobox, so I try to create one that fits every regular European comic book, for all new series and to replace the existing ones. 
I don't plan to do that replacement anytime soon though: I would like everyones input, comments, and collaboration first, to see if it is a good idea, and if so to make the template as good as possible.

message: It would take someone more expert in the field of architecture criticism than I to give a full account of the significance of "Blueprint".  I would argue that the public profile of contributors like Glancey and Moore is sufficient to make a case for it.  Moreover, a short page is useful simply to make clear that the "Blueprint" to which they contributed is not the same thing as the magazine published by Martha Stewart Enterprises. I'd also make the more general case that sometimes brief entries such as this serve a useful purpose, not least in disambiguation.  --Antisyzygy 09:18, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
