message: I have just read an article Bonnie Annie Laurie, the centenary of a famous song by Davidson Cook, The Bookman, July 1924, in which he researches the history of the song and critisises the many mistakes that have crept in. He says the Scott version was first published anonymously in the Vocal Melodies of Scotland in 1838, without the author's consent (she believed it was stolen when she sent her music book to be re-bound).So the broadside shown in the link is not the earliest version of the Scott lyrics Labocetta (talk) 17:44, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Rhabdomancy

message: My family has been "conducting rhabdomancy" also known as "Water Witching", "Dowsing" or divining ever since I was a child.  I was taught, or introduced to the natural skill when I was a child of 4 or 5.  I use RODS usually, but can also use just my hand and "feel" what I seek.  I found this very handy when I began Archery hunting.  I could locate lost arrows, or downed game just by "concentration and thought allowing us to FEEL the quarry we seek."  I have used the skill for years to locate underground cables, wires, water and yes, even septic lines... 
This is a true and real life expereince.  It does exist.  I feel that not everybody has this ability.  It can not be taught or learned if you do not have the natural ability.
By the way, this gift has nothing to do with Satanic Worship, as some beleive.  It is a natural tool and ability... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rknm (talk • contribs) 21:14, 13 August 2006‎

Talk:Jim Abbott (Canadian politician)

message: The PCO website incorrectly states that "John Abbott" was appointed to the Privy Council on October 15, 2007.  However, the Parliament of Canada web site clearly shows that Jim Abbott is a Privy Councillor as the prenom "Hon." appears in his title. . His article was changed to reflect this appointment, but it was undone, most likely because of the error on the PCO site. Perhaps in light of this the changes should be reinstated. Richardbjohnson 03:47, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, it actually isn't clear from the Parliament of Canada website.  The list you cite is only one of many lists pertaining to current MPs on that site, and is the only one suggesting that he is a Privy Councillor.  Other lists on the site, including the list of MPs who are Privy Councillors, do not list Mr. Abbott.  Furthermore, two days after his alleged appointment he spoke in the House, and Hansard clearly identifies him as "Mr. Jim Abbott", not "Hon. Jim Abbott" as he would be were he a Privy Councillor.  Finally, his own website, which has been updated a number of times in the last week, makes no reference to any appointment.  It seems pretty clear that the error is in that one list on the Parliament of Canada website, and not the PCO site.  Barring clear evidence that he has been appointed to the Privy Council, no mention of it should appear in this article.PoliSciMaster 05:06, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I checked his site this morning (October 22), and it appears as though they have updated it with a story showing him taking the oath. It can be seen here.  They are probably just a little slow to get their site updated. As well, a quick check of Hansard  from October 19th shows him now being referred to as "Hon. Jim Abbott".

Talk:Fear a' Bhàta

message: Not sure how I just noticed this only now after working on the issues mentioned by Loquequieras below but the lyrics in the main article's version are missing the fith and ninth verses: "Cha'n eil baile beag sam bi thu,/ Nach tamh thu greis ann a chuir do sgios diot,/ Bheir thu lamh air do leabhar riamhach,/ Ghabhail dhuanag, 's a bhuaireadh nianag." and "Tha mo chriosan air dol an airde,/Cha'n ann o f hidhlair, na o chlarsair,/Ach o stiuireadair a bhata,/'S mur tig thu dhathigh, struagh raar tha mì." The latter of which is pretty important to understanding the song. Source: https://archive.org/details/cochruinneachata04stew/page/340/mode/2up?q=%22Fear+a+Bhata%22 published ~1803
Not sure what to do about spelling here though for these new verses. Compare for example https://www.bbc.co.uk/alba/oran/people/sine_nicfhionnlaigh/ vs 1803 spelling.
