Talk:Passage grave

message: Nowhere in this egregious piece do you explain what they are. Typical Wikipaedia.
Looking for imagery? -- Both the Swedish and the Danish articles have cool images of passage graves.

thread_title: Untitled

message: The term "passage grave" quite naturally means that a structure was used as a burial place.  However, many of the structures so designated contain no evidence that they were actually used as burial places, such as Newgrange, Dowth and Meath.  Indeed, there is sound archaeological evidence that demonstrates a lack of burial possibilities inside of these structures.  The article on Knowth states that "It contains three recesses and basin stones into which the cremated remains of the dead were placed" with no explanation of why it is believed that these recesses once held cremated remains rather than serving some other purpose.  The article on Newgrange claims that partially-cremated human remains were found scattered within the chamber, but also the remains of wild and domesticated animals that likely entered on their own and died.  So, without suggesting engaging in WP:OR, I'd like to see greater circumspection when applying this term to structures for which we simply do not know their original function(s), and a section added that reflects this lack of certainty and heterodoxy of hypotheses.

St. Matthew's in D.C. is the top Google result for cathedral matthew, and there is no other wikipedia entry for any other existant St. Matthew's Cathedral, so I think this change was justified.

Talk:Schafik Hándal

message: Provide a cite for the claim that Handal sought closer ties with North Korea, please. It seems odd to me that he would have a particular attachment to improving relations with an impoverished pariah northeast Asian country. Everyking 22:11, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: "Seventy-three years of age, a former guerrilla chieftain, and an unreconstructed Communist, Handal ran a campaign that antagonized and frightened many Salvadorans, not all of them by any means wealthy or privileged. His rhetoric was strident and apocalyptic and his program far out of the mainstream. Specifically, he made it clear that if elected he would deliberately distance the country from the United States and draw closer to Cuba, China, Libya, and North Korea."

In this case we do have the historical name "Pouchong" in English, but today "Baozhong" is about as frequently seen. Certainly any recent secondary source written by someone knowledgeable in Chinese tea would use the latter. —diff (talk) 19:38, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

Twelve months is very long time.--FeloniousMonk 20:53, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

text: I agree with your suggestion, though I'll point out Sam's edits are far more than just "moving material around". Consider: . Sam completely changed the meaning and tone of the introductory paragraph, and went on to do the same to the 'Types of atheism' paragraphs.

text: Jmabel, I generally third your seconding of my comments.  However, I would point out that unfortunately in this article apparently trivial wording and grammar changes can trigger edit wars, since in some places the consensus has been hammered out word by word.  It may not be obvious where these trip-wires are, but Sam should know, having spent a lot of time on this article.   Whether he decides to deliberately trip them anyway is another question.  --BM 21:10, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
