message: I've re-done the entire article, as the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica text was wholly inadequate and sexist to boot.

message: I am reviewing this article as part of WP:URFA/2020, an initiative to review Wikipedia's oldest featured articles. I am concerned that this article does not include post-2009 sources, which could be used to expand upon the article and make the "Literary career" section more comprehensive. Examples of sources that I found are below:
*Gill Gregory, The Life and Work of Adelaide Procter: Poetry, Feminism and Fathers 
*Karen Dieleman, Religious Imaginaries: The Liturgical and Poetic Practices of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Christina Rossetti, and Adelaide Procter 
*S Rogers Transforming the Fallen Woman in Adelaide Anne Procter's “A Legend of Provence” 
*Cheri Lin Larsen Hoeckley The Dynamics of Poetics and Forgiveness in Adelaide Procter's ‘Homeless’ 
*Emily Harrington The Expiration of Commitments in Adelaide Procter's “Homeward Bound”

message: The following sentence appears in the article: "Dermatobia fly eggs have been shown to be vectored by over 40 species of mosquitoes and muscoid flies, as well as one species of tick;"
In the article, the word vector is linked to this page, which seems to be correct. However, as a reader, I still cannot figure out the meaning of the above sentence. If a vector is an agent that transmits a pathogen into another living being, then what does is mean for the eggs to be vectored by over 40 species? I'm not an expert on this, so I do not know how to fix it, but maybe the sentence could be rewritten to better convey its original message. --Cody.berdinis (talk) 00:53, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The mother botfly doesn't lay her eggs directly on the human host, but rather on a fly or mosquito. Since the fly or mosquito is what actually carries the egg to the human host, the fly or mosquito is the vector, not the botfly. I'm sure the mother botfly will grab and lay her eggs on any suitable fly or mosquito she finds, so it's not surprising that there's a long list of species that have been used that way.

Piza its a common second name in the island of Majorca (Spain).

Talk:Throne Verse

message: Can anyone change this page to the "footstool verse"? Because the word "Kursi" really is more of a footstool, ita has been mistranslated as "throne". According to a translation of the Koran,"Interpretation of the Meaning of The Noble Qur'an in the English Language, by Dr. Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din Al-Hilali and Dr Muhammad Muhsin Khan, published by Darussalam, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia", it mentioned:
Kursi, literally a footstool or chair, and sometimes wrongly translated as Throne. The Kursi in this Verse should be distinguished from the 'Arsh (throne)....

thread_title: You wanted help

message: The article says that Roku is able to enter the physical world during the winter solstice. Is there any proof of this, because I see it more of as Aang entering the spirit world than Roku coming into the physical world (which would explain why Aang had to go to him, instead of him going to Aang). And the part where it says Roku can enter the physical world anywhere within his temple is also false. He could only talk to Aang in his special room (the one that can only be opened by 5 firebenders). Outside of that room, he uses Aang as a vessel, which all previous avatars can do almost anywhere (Roku in "the deserter", and Kyoshi in that episode with the trial). - Stretchyrubberbands 07:17, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Saint-Porchaire ware

message: Saint-Porchaire is wonderfully distinctive, with no two pieces at all alike. It would be great to have an image or two for this page, such as this or this, so that a casual reader will know what the fuss is about. I learned something from following the links. According to the (unsigned but authoritative) "The Rarest Faience In The World" article, one family has cornered the market on these objects:
:"The Rothschilds have always taken a very keen interest in this particular ware and have regarded it as specially suited for their collections, and whenever pieces have come up for sale they have been eager competitors for it. At one time Sir Anthony de Rothschild had seven pieces, Baron Lionel two pieces, Baron Alphonse three, Baron Gustave two, and Baron James one, and, in all probability, all the pieces that have ever been bought by the Rothschilds are still in the possession of some member or other of that family."

message: The article has had a Wikipedia:Conflict of interest tag since 2007. The article has been edited numerous times since. I'm not aware of a discussion anywhere that discusses how the COI affects the article, and I'm convinced of the veracity of the information, although it needs more references.

Talk:Ohio State Route 357

message: It's been awhile since I've been on South Bass Island (1990), but when I was there SR-357 had no directional markers.  I assume the "north-south" reference in the article refers to how the straight-line diagram is set up.  If there are still no directional markers along SR-357, that part of the article should probably be altered to reflect that. Mapsax 00:03, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: North-South routing

message: My edit noting the 1973 moving of the northern docks of the Catawba Island-to-South Bass Island ferry may open up ambiguity because subsequent editions of the ODOT map show a ferry route from the west (south) end of 357 to Port Clinton, though it was most likely not considered an extension of 357 nor was it definite that it connected directly to SR 163, though some might consider that "state highway access" on a larger scale. I started this process because of hazy OR: On my only trip there in 1990 (see above) I vaguely remember a tour guide stating that there was a large ferry dock at the south end of 357 on the island, but it burned down, which is why the ferry docked on the south side of the island by then. However, I can find no record of the fire online nor the dock rearranging; the closest that I've come was the ODOT map. But as I've said, the ferry routes become convoluted soon after, and there is no information regarding "official" connections vs. private companies' lines, and there is also the issue of scale and symbol congestion (it's not clear whether Port Clinton-to-Kelleys Island routes "island hopped" with a stop on South Bass along the way or not). Can anyone with a better knowledge of local history clear this up? Mapsax (talk) 15:20, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

* Tell me how this is relevant to the thing -- not to the word. On WP we tend to put different things on different pages even if the same word refers to them.

"Jeff plays in a collectively led trio called “Fly,” and the other two members are Larry Grenadier and Mark Turner. I was blown away by the way Fly played after hearing them at the Village Vanguard last year, and that’s when I began to think about asking Jeff to play with me. What really struck me is the musical rapport that Larry and Jeff have, and their deep groove. They have a long history between the two of them that dates back to their teenage years in the Bay Area where they already were making music together." 
Now that alone qualifies the band as notable, doesn't it?
