Talk:Hoxne Hoard

message: It says
And it's sourced to Bland & Johns 1993b pp. 153-157. My questions are:
# How can newpapers "disrupt" the sorting, cleaning, and stabilization of archeological finds? What, precisely, could The Times or any other paper done to prevent curators from sorting and cleaning the items of this find? Would they have kidnapped key personnel, or excited the public to storm or block the museum buildings, or what?
# Do Bland & Johns really say this claim, or is that a misinterpretion of the source?
# If Bland & Johns really do say this, what other ridiculous things do they say, and how good a source are they? Herostratus (talk) 12:55, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I mean, can't the curators just say "No you can't come in here"? How much would this really interrupt the work. It's a bit of calumny on Fleet Street and certainly makes the curators look feckless. Herostratus (talk) 21:19, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm sure they probably can say "No you can't come in here". The disruption is that they have to wait until the newspapers have finished taking their "we-are-real-life-Detectorists-jackpot-winners" glamour shots before they can even begin their time-sensitive conservation work. But that's just my guess. We'd have to ask one of them, I guess. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:42, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

message: I've removed a sentence claiming he was credited for the 1992 win. Who has credited him and why? Comparing Sepp's last team in EC '88 with the EC '92 team - it's only John Sivebæk and Flemming Povlsen (plus Lars Olsen and John Jensen as subs in '88) who appeared in the opening match of both tournaments (8892) - the bulk of old players were replaced by Ricardo's Olympic Qualifying '88 team.

thread_title:  Elaine Dundy website 

message: Under the "Books" subheading, we get some story of Mrs. Dundy's marital troubles. "Around this time, Tynan started to insist on flagellating his wife, with the threat of his own suicide if she refused..." Flagellating is not exactly common English, and I thought perhaps the author meant he was beating her, either purely abusively or for a particularly violent kink, and thought to change the wording accordingly. I followed the Guardian link, which describes the same thing, only in perhaps even less clear language to contemporary readers like myself: "Tynan wanted to resume the English vice - bedtime flagellation, a pastime he had apparently enjoyed in his Oxford days - with Dundy as recipient. If she refused, he would climb melodramatically out on to the window-ledge and threaten to jump." Bedtime flagellation, the English Vice! Curious and charmingly jargony. I pursued the English Vice, to a an archive of some professor's personal website. ""The English Vice" can be confidently asserted to have been spanking the buttocks, however, 'flagellation' is another term that is sometimes used but is less specific." Evidence is apparently found in  Ian Gibson's "The English Vice: Beating, Sex and Shame in Victorian England." Further, "The English 'public' school system used corporal punishment for many years and and it is claimed that many an English schoolboy acquired a taste for such treatment that carried on into his adult life. You may recall Swinburne's many references to Eton's block and 'birching', claiming that his own proclivity for that particular pasttime had been cultivated by such school practices." So, I suggest replacing "flagellating" in the article with "spanking" or something more common-English which captures something of the punitive aspect. 2601:18D:4800:C0B0:F1CD:5CDE:5F9B:DBF5 (talk) 20:15, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Mole salamander

message: Great article. I just wrote a short article for Marbled Salamander and noted how this one has been expanded so expertly. A couple of minor format issues, and please correct me if I'm wrong:
* I was seeing a spurious asterisk before your bulleted lists of species and subspecies. I think this was due to starting a top-level bullet list with two asterisks. I corrected this, I think. I believe I maintained the nested lists correctly, those showing subspecies and hybrids.
* I'm not sure what the practice is here, but I feel the species list should only have Wiki links where an article exists. Otherwise, it is too frustrating to go clicking on links and get the "Create Article" dialog. Most people are not going to want to do that.
Again, a great article. I learned a lot reading it. Thanks very much.

thread_title: Untitled

message: Despite IMDb claiming this title was released in 1980, I have yet to find evidence of this. The only source I have that takes a close examination of the film is a Buster Crabbe book which states the film was shot in 1980 but only released in 1985 on home video. It backs this up with a Variety review of the home video release. I can not find any other specific dates that got into detail as much as this publication.

Talk:Jefferies tube

message: Shouldn't there be an Apostrophe? i.e. "Jeffries' Tube". That's quite aside from the common internet spelling "Jeffrey's Tube" - which clearly is wrong if it derives from a person's name with the "ies" spelling. Graldensblud 16:36, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Just pulled out Mr. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise and the Star Trek The Next Generation Technical Manual (p. 83 has a paragraph about them) and neither of them used an apostrophe. I think the intention is not to say that these tubes belong to Matt Jeffiries, just that they're named after him. Like how the John F. Kennedy Airport doesn't have an apostrophe-s after the name.

Talk:Alpha Delta Phi

message: I deleted a "Controversies" section, after considering a simple rename as "Local chapter or member misconduct".  It started out with the report of the 1922 death of a member after some reports of 'horseplay', where the Hamilton chapter was not alleged to have caused the death.  --It was 100 years ago. While tragic, it was simply an event that happened on the fraternity premises and has nothing to do with a systemic report of hazing or aggression, then or now, and wasn't "national" by any sense of the term.  
The citations went downhill from there, in terms of encyclopedic value:  One was supported by a Gawker magazine reference, an unreliable source.  Several others were reports of loud behavior or parties, or events held during a period of sanction.  None of these are particularly noteworthy, even as a note against a specific chapter listing on the chapter list.  In no way do they rise to the importance of citing them on a summary article about the national fraternity.  Further, in most of these the issue has passed, the sanction is done, and a new crop of members is in the chapter, perhaps only dimly aware that some of their forebears were involved in a passing, local scandal.  
I urge inclusion of misconduct items in these pages IF:
A) They indicate a systemic, ongoing problem that the national fraternity refuses to cure or condones in any way.  Or,
B) The issue results in significant national news, like the Duke Lacrosse Team fraudulent rape case, affecting Phi Kappa Psi. Or,
C) If the issue results in noteworthy national legislation, like certain hazing events that result in anti-hazing laws.
