Talk:Royal Cork Yacht Club

message: Royal Cork claims to be the oldest, but has had several incarnations and was dormant in the late 19th century and was revitalized when  the Royal Munster merged with it.  To this day it still embraces Royal Munster in its title. If you become dormant and are reborn, can you claim continuous existence? and the claim to be the oldest should reflect that it is the oldest discontinuous yacht club in the Cork harbour.

Talk:Spike Island, County Cork

message: To explain these edits of mine, I would like to clarify that the official spelling of "Fort Mitchel" uses only one "L". This follows the convention the man used himself and is born out by relevant statute, prison service documentation and dept of justice reports. While other (unofficial) spellings are to be found, unless in the context of a discussion about alternative spellings, I see no reason to use that alternative spelling and excise the "official" spelling. If there are other opinions on this, it'd be great to hear them and discuss (in context of WP:CON principles) on this talk page. Ideally without anyone resorting to SOCK behaviours or similar. The latter would be especially refreshing. Cheers. Guliolopez (talk) 09:37, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Category talk:Research institutes

message: Would it make sense to have a sub-category for independent research institutes?  By this I mean research institutions that are not linked to a university or government, etc..  I am working on an article that would fit in this category (Monell Chemical Senses Center), but I am not sure if there enough other similar institutes to justify a new category. ike9898 23:14, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I would suggest that each research institute is categorized at least by three criteria

message: I'm disputing the following phrase in the article:    The European Union wasn't formed under that name until 1993.   In 1976, the immediate precursor to the EU, the European Community, is likely what was meant.  However, the cited source specifically states "European Union" (even though it is obviously wrong), so I'm not comfortable with changing it unless I can find another source that explicitly says something else.

Talk:Comarques of the Valencian Community

message: Is there any reason this is not simply called Comarques of Valencia? At the very least that should be a redirect (which I will make right now). - Jmabel | Talk 23:21, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Title

message: The term comarca has entered the English language as meaning an administrative subdivision or traditional region in several Iberian and Latin American countries (see :wikt:comarca). In line with the norms of the English language, its plural is formed by simply adding an "s", regardless of how it is formed in other languages. Since this is the English Wikipedia, we should therefore refer to standard English "comarcas", rather than vary the plural according to the grammar of the local language of where the comarcas happen to be located. I therefore propose renaming this page to "Comarcas of the Valencian Community". Cheers. Rwxrwxrwx (talk) 15:26, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

Category talk:Scientific societies

message: Is there any reason that all the Category:disciplineName organizations categories go here instead of under Category:Scientific organizations?  Seems like in half the scientific disciplines the organization category goes under Category:Scientific organizations and half under Category:Scientific societies.  
If no one objects, I'm going to change the category for the discipline organizations categories to Category:Scientific organizations.  --Jackhorkheimer 23:24, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree it's a bit confusing and may not work as a practical matter.  However, there's a technical difference b/w the various "societies" and other types of organizations; societies are a subcat of organizations.  Other orgs would include labs, research institutes, advocacy/lobbying organizations, scientific regulatory bodies, scientific standard-setting bodies, and so on.  The scientific societies would be the groups of scientists for purposes of furthering scientific discourse, by hosting meetings, sponsoring a journal, and otherwise facilitating scientific society.  ... I guess, I would say, it might be worth it to clean up the categories, and then watch them for a while and see if they maintain themselves in a reasonable way.  If not, then that suggests that people don't really use that technical distinction and maybe we shouldn't bother keeping it.  I don't feel strongly either way, though.  What do you think?  --lquilter 22:09, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Category confusion

message: I think there is a practical difference between academies in particular and societies in general. It is true that in many countries a society simply may decide to call itself an academy; but mostly there is a clearly visible distinction. I would like to make some more specific categories, like National academies of science(s) or National academies of humanities; in those cases the same national academy covers e.g. both sciences and literature, it should be placed in both categories. As it is now, if you go through the list included in Academy of Sciences, you'll see that the items are categorised in varying manners, buth that most of them are contained both in :Category:National academies and in :Category:Scientific societies. This would be replaced by both belonging to the new common subcategory National academies of science.
I propose that this new category also be placed in a new category Academies of science. The new category also could contain various international common science academy organs; and a subcategory for the (now 11) items corresponding to the various IAP official statements. The latter often are clear-cut stands on controversial questions, but considered of high concern and collecting the closest you can get to an "official consensus" from the scientific world; whence they IMHO are of a clear encyclopædic interest, and should be easy to find by searching for academies of sciences by means of our categories.

Talk:LÉ Cliona

message: In this edit, a user, in good faith, added the information that Cliona rather than Macha was the Irish Naval Service corvette which returned the remains of W.B. Yeats from the south of France to Ireland in 1948.  That edit (which was placed below the templates) has since been removed, but should someone wish to add that information back in, please first consult Talk:William_Butler_Yeats#Last_journey.

Talk:LÉ Macha

message: On 26 December the following good-faith addition was made:
The book "A History of the Irish Naval Service" by Aidan McIvor corrects the mistake in that it was not the Macha, but the The LE Cliona under the command of Commander Thomas McKenna (Later to become Overall Commander of the Irish Naval Service)that returned the remains of WB Yeats. 
Le Cliona left Haulbowline Naval Base in June 1948, calling at Gibraltar on the outward and return leg, and collected the remains of in Nice.
The vessel returned to Sligo Bay after a journey of 17 days.
The editor is correct on what the source says, but the source itself appears to be in error, as discussed at Talk:William_Butler_Yeats#Last_journey.  I therefore have moved the above edit here.  Kablammo (talk) 13:40, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

For example:

Using  is not useful because it is the same as  but offers a trivial saving in typing. The problem with  is that it causes confusion since it makes people wonder what it is and whether there is a difference from  and which "should" be used.

Though the Lay-Osborn flotilla is ordered by Qing government, the deal was never closed, so legally the ownership is questionable. Secondly the Qing Navy flag was not invented yet, so the ship wouldn't fly it in fact. Though the flag of Keang-soo in the sketch at leaft is fuzzy, it looks like the flag designed by Horatio Nelson Lay with an X. Unfortunately this flag is not in Wikimedia Commons so there is none ready to use. UK government has asked a distinct flag to be flown so that the ships won't be attacked by mistake, so this is not a trivial matter.
