Talk:Agistri

message: The official site of the island uses the form Agistri, so shouldn't the title match the official transliteration?--— ZjarriRrethues — talk 10:41, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Agistri certainly seems the most popular, and was used 30 odd years ago when I visited.  But I note the official Hellenic Statistical Authority uses "Municipality of Agkistri" in its statistical tables. So the name seems highly debatable. Rwendland (talk) 13:11, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Angistri or Agistri 

message: The island is not nor had it ever been referred to by the locals as ANGISTRI. I live on the island. All official references to the island are Agistri. We call it Agistri. Where the trouble began is the phonetic spelling. There is no "G" sound in the Greek language. We therefore combine the Gamma and Kappa to form the "G" sound. Hence the phonetic spelling AGKISTRI. To the untrained ear it may sound like and "N" we can assure you it is not. All offical translations and Hellenic Ferry companies use the AGISTRI. We really need to move this as it is costing the island in some cases bookings to the confusion.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gkleponis (talk • contribs) 09:02, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

thread_title: Still living?

message: I'm sure she was very attached to her dogs.  However, to the general reader of the article, this aspect of her life would be of next to no interest, and they are not what I would call encyclopedic.  
Perhaps User:Robert Keane is the same person as her student Dr Robert Keane.  If so, with the greatest respect, may I suggest a slightly more emotionally detached attitude to what constitutes a well-written and encyclopedic article.  Otherwise, it's coming along very nicely and is becoming a fine tribute to a much-respected pianist.  --  JackofOz (talk) 08:09, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Body bag

message: It is not Denglish, but much rather a Pseudo-Anglicism, although this may not be entirely correct either. The term body bag is not exclusive to Germany or the German language when it comes to describing a (fashionable) backpack. See for example the Pear-Shaped Body Bag,  this site or this English retailer. British sites often refer to this kind of apparel as across body bag or sling body bag. Does anyone have a reputable source that explicitly says that this specific use of the term is a Pseudo-Anglicism? --Berolina 17:17, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Dermod O'Brien

message: I have removed a line that says O'Brien was made an honorary member of the Royal Academy, London in 1912. Now restored.  
The line was cited to this page (now archived), one of a group on the "Irish Impressionists".  However, the Royal Academy's own site does not name him as an Hon. R.A. , nor list him with the other Academicians; and nor do either of the entries for him ,  at the MSBI sculpture project, which usually has quite detailed information about RAs.
It's far from impossible that he was indeed an Hon RA; but without better citations I don't think the line and the categorisation can be left in the article.  Jheald (talk) 13:31, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: On the other hand, the RA archive catalogue has a "Letter from Dermod O'Brien, Hon. R.A." .  Perhaps it's conceivable that this was the cataloguer misunderstanding "HRA" = "Hibernian Royal Academy", but on the strength of this I am going to let the original statement stand, at least until there is any further evidence either way.

Category talk:Entertainers

message: I have moved a lot of subcategories around, with the aim of making this category read more intuitively.
For instance #1, "Musicians" can include a lot of other things, which to most people are instinctively seen as "musicians", eg. everything inbvolving a musical instrument. But "Singers" is added separately into Entertainers, because it is often thought of as a separate mode of entertainment.
For instance #2 - "Comedians" may technically include minstrelsy, but not everyone would think of that (some might be offended, rather than amused), so minstrelsy is added separately.
Similarly, theatre styles such as Vaudeville are listed separately to Theatre, and so on. The aim is to get a more or less complete list of subcategories - without overdoing it - which will allow readers to instinctively choose a subcategory, rather than guessing which one something is in.
