Talk:Schwabachers Landing

message: I presume the name relates to the Schwabacher Brothers or others of that family; if anyone knows the nature of the connection, it would be a good addition to the article. - Jmabel | Talk 06:59, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I couldn't find any connection - in fact, I couldn't find much on the origin of the name at all.  I would think if it was tied to the Schwabacher Brothers then somebody would have pointed it out by now. CosmicPenguin (talk• WP:WYOHelp!) 23:24, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

text: Albert Schwabacher Sr. owned the Lost Creek Ranch which right about where Schwabacher's Landing is.  I can't find any reliable sources that state that the landing was named after him but it would be pretty coincidental if it wasn't.  I say find a good reference to Schwabacher's ownership of the ranch and then you can tie it into the article. CosmicPenguin (talk• WP:WYOHelp!) 19:59, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Albert Schwabacher Sr. would be a different Schwabacher than the ones in the Schwabacher Brothers article (though possibly related). Thanks. - Jmabel | Talk 04:58, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:USS San Pablo (AVP-30)

message: this page makes reference to the film "Sand Pebbles" with contrast to the USS San Pablo, stating that the ship referred to in this film (and former book) is a fictional ship.  Although the story is fictional, it is based on an acutal gunboat called the San Pablo which was used as a patrol boat on the Yangtzee River, China.  This ship is infact a former spanish vessel, captured in the 1898 American-Spanish War, and commissioned as an American Ship.  therefore, it should be specified that this ship, as tradition for most Navies, has assumed the name of former ship to continue its tradition and heritage, and the is not a fictional boat from the early 1900's.

Talk:William Heinemann

message: Here is a great story, but I dont know how to work it in without original research - connecting dots that are not specified in a single source. This book talks of Heinemanns marketing  - Heinemann sees a boy on the street attempting to sell "baby dolls" but not succeeding while another boy is able to sell his dolls, calling them "the empire lady". Heinemann tells the other boy to stop calling them "baby dolls" and instead sell them in pairs as "The Heavenly Twins" - the boy does so and does a brisk business, driving off his competitor. Heinemann notes that book stores in this vicinity have a swift uptake in the sale of penny novels - such as The Heavenly Twins a novel written by Sarah Grand on the Heineman imprint. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 15:56, 1 January 2013 (UTC)

Talk:William L. Steele

message: The recent extensive history added to the article by 99.201.202.198 appears to have been added verbatim from a very outdated source. While the information is valuable, such non sequiturs as "His death occurred there in 1909, at the age of seventy-three years. His wife, who was born and reared in Springfield, Illinois, is a daughter of Jules A. La Barthe, who was born in Bordeaux, France, and came to the United States sometime in the '40s. She is still living and makes her home with her children." That is simply untrue today, in 2008! Also, the latest date mentioned in the outdated verbatim was in 1926. Steele died in 1949, and there was no mention of this. In fact, the verbatim spoke of him in the present tense as being currently living and active!
The useful information needs to be extracted and reworked into original prose. Alternatively, a link to the original source might be appropriate. Jerry picker (talk) 18:40, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
