Talk:Mike LaCoss

message: I remember reading SI or something in a plane once and there was an article about the relative infrequency of Jewish MLB players.  I believe the author mentioned that LaCoss used to get angry when he was referred to as Jewish because he adopted his stepfather's last name but did not actually convert to Judaism.  I wish I could provide more info, but it might be worth looking into.

Talk:Mike Nickeas

message: I'm European. I don't know the first thing about baseball, so maybe you'll laugh at me for asking this question: but if he's a catcher, why is he shown hitting the ball in the picture?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.204.126.77 (talk) 07:13, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Because in baseball the position players also bat - in an inning one team's position players take turns hitting while the other teams fielders are in the field in one half, and in the other half they switch, and those that were hitting now field while those that were fielding now hit. As for why the photo is of him hitting and not actively catching, as catchers wear protective face masks, a photo of them at bat is generally preferred so that they are identifiable. (the infobox photo already shows him geared up as a catcher with his facemask removed, as well.) Echoedmyron (talk) 13:48, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Darlene Conley

message: Someone keeps changing her birthplace in the infobox from Chicago to Dublin.  They do not provide a source, but assert in their edit summaries that she was raised, not born in Chicago.  However, the text in the actual article (which they do not change) says she was born in Chicago, and it has a source, which, when I followed the link, did indeed assert Chicago as her birth place.  So I'm going to change the Infobox back to Chicago, and I would ask that anyone changing it in the future;

message: Not mentioned here is that Mr. Darnell Williams was a member of the "Soul Train" dancers in the 70s, and regularly appeared with them in teen photo-op fan profiles in "Right On" magazines. Whether this has been overlooked or that Darnell may be embarassed by it, I can't say. It should be part of his resume as the show was a pioneering TV and cultural phenomenon.

Talk:Battle of Tarutino

message: The opening paragraph states that the battle of Tarutino is sometimes called "battle of Chernishnya" ...due to the fact that it took place 8 km from the village of Tarutino." This looks like an odd statement to me. I'm not sure how others interpret this sentence.
For me something like this would sound more logical: 'Sometimes called "battle of Chernishnya" after the local river but mostly called "battle of Tarutino" due to the fact that it took place 8 km from the village of Tarutino.' Pukkie 05:46, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Something that might improve this article would be to mention the unusually large number of cannon captured by the Russians at Tarutino: 39 guns. Up until this point in the war, that many cannon had not been captured by either side. 39 cannon captured in battle was considered to be huge.

thread_title:  Opening paragraph 

message: Who changed the original information in the infobox of this article? It now contains information that is ridiculously inaccurate. It claims that the Russian side was commanded by General Bennigsen, and that the Russian only had two army corps and 11 regiments of cavalry. That's not exactly true. In reality, the entire Russian army of 90,000 troops was present for the battle, and General Kutuzov was in command. Bennigsen commanded only a segment of the Russian corps, directing the two corps and the 11 cavalry regiments. What is the point behind listing only Bennigsen's contingent of troops when the entire Russian army was present on the field of battle and Bennigsen himself was under the direction of Kutuzov?
I don't see any advantage to this latest, confusing and misleading information in the article's infox. Whoever wrote the original article should restore the information first used in the infox, which was accurate.Kenmore (talk) 18:18, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: You are correct that it should be Kutuzov and should be 90,000. I have made edits accordingly. It looks like Bennigsen has been incorrectly listed as the Russian commander ever since this article was first created, for some reason. As for the strength of the army, it looks like the numbers listed previously were only counting those under Orlov-Denisov. --Shmarrighan (talk) 07:23, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Miller County, Arkansas Territory

message: Many online sources say that Miller County was abolished in 1838, but I've been unable to find a source that specifies a particular date.
The general picture as I understand it: an 1819 treaty defined the U.S.–Mexico border on paper, but it remained unsurveyed for a long time.  Uncertainty on the ground lead to large overlapping claims of jurisdiction.  In 1836 when Arkansas became a state and Texas became an independent country, the Mexico & Arkansas Territory dispute became a Republic of Texas & Arkansas State dispute.  From 1836 to 1838, Texas and Arkansas jokeyed for control of the Miller County area; Texas established two counties on the same territory (Red River and Fannin); Arkansas made it a misdemeanor for a resident of Miller to hold elected office in Texas.  Public sentiment was largely with Texas.  In 1838, the U.S. and Texas agreed to honor the 1819 border agreement and to jointly survey the line .  Prior to the completion of that effort, possibly sometime in late 1838, Arkansas abolished Miller County, apparently accepting Texas's claims to the western portion and incorporating the remaining, easternmost portion into its Lafayette County.  But the joint U.S.–Texas survey which affirmed this division wasn't concluded until three years later in 1841.
Good sources are here  (see p.29) and here  (see p.110, footnote 53).  It would be helpful if someone can make sense of all this for the article and pull in a conclusive citation for the actual Arkansas legislative act finalizing this episode.  --Joseph Hewes (talk) 08:29, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
