Talk:Iain Chalmers

message: We can't avoid making at least a passing mention of his activism, which sadly includes support for an academic boycott of research from Israel. JFW | T@lk 20:32, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: In the spirit of frank and open discussion and in adherance to the rules of Wiki, please provide evidence of your assertion that Dr Chalmers supports an academic boycott of research from Israel. If you are unable to do so then you should remove your rather inflamatory comment  CTMB 08:41, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

text: This comment "Here" is somewhat disingenuous.  In the letter cited, which should be read in full, Chalmers begins "I did not join the academic boycott of Israel while I was director of the UK Cochrane Centre because this would have been inconsistent with my explicit offer of support for people in Israel who want to contribute to the Cochrane Collaboration".  Later in the letter he refers to "...cheap and predictable charges of anti-Semitism ... against anyone who calls on the Israeli state to observe its responsibilities as a signatory of the fourth Geneva Convention."Gordoncph (talk) 13:38, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Foundations of Modern Arab Identity

message: As I mentioned in the AfD, information that cannot be verified in reliable sources, independent of Prof. Sheehi and of his affiliations, should be removed.  This has nothing to do with notability, it just has to do with reliability and the need for a neutral description of these details. Of course there is nothing wrong with linking to Prof. Sheehi's homepage/s in the External links section. (For now I'm going to delay proposing the renaming I suggested in the AfD.)

message: No one has added reliable sources, independent of Sheehi and of his affiliations, to verify the bio details, and I can find none on Google.  So I think we should refactor this article to be about the book (Foundations) that has actually received independent coverage, instead of being about Prof. Sheehi himself who, apparently, has not.  Propose to remove the bio content as above, and rename the page as Foundations of Modern Arab Identity. Pan Dan 14:47, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bio info and Move 

message: I tagged the summary section (which I created by copy-pasting from the lede) for MOS:PEACOCK because it includes puffery throughout, for example, describing it as a "cornerstone for Nahdah Studies", "closely read[ing] 'foundational' Arabic texts", and "reveal[ing] that a 'spectral European presence' is ever present in Arab modernity and its paradigms of Arab identity". Those things might very well be true in "Nahdah Studies" (a field which is undefined in the summary), but . I don't have time to read this book, but I would propose replacing the section with a summary of the arguments in the text. Then, the critical reception section could be modified to include reviews from other scholars, and an Analysis section could include criticism or further research (see WP:NONFICTION). voorts (talk/contributions) 23:37, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Biography/Assessment#Class_parameter|Biography assessment rating]] comment 

message: The article is mainly about James Hazen Hyde. Perhaps it should be renamed.
This aside, I am posting citation needed because Patrica Beard's account does not support the notion that Jamea Hazen Hyde made 'one fatal miscalculation.' with his astonishing ball. In her account, James's loss of control of the Equitable Assurance Society was a cumulative process that began even before Henry's death, with Henry apparently not especially attentive in integrating his son into Equitable culture, nor with James being especially interested in being integrated, what with his active involvement in the social milieu of the New York Four Hundred. In any event, Henry died before much integration, well-planned or not, could take place. James Hazen Hyde was out of touch with the ambitions and power-bases of the senior Equitable management, men twice his age of whom he would be nominally in charge. Indeed, according to Beard, J. W. Alexander had already challenged James Hazen Hyde with the mutualization scheme that was designed to oust Hyde from management, so battle lines had been drawn before the ball had taken place, and next Equitable board meeting was going to be a war irrespective of the ball. If anything, the ball was a flash point for volatiles already in place. — Gosgood 23:20, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I do not think there is a valid point in trying to whitewash all reference to Segal's work in Chronometric theory. The facts are that he spent 25 years on this. He lectured around the globe on it, including at the National Academy of Sciences. There are thousands of references to Chronometic Cosmology online. We do not have to agree with the theory. We have pared Segal's bio down to bare minimum per the suggestions of editors. But this article is simply 
a bio about Segal, and to omit this huge part of his work would actually be decidedly biased.  Skotting  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skotting (talk • contribs) 02:42, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Gravestones are obviously interesting artifacts, but when the details engraved therupon differ from all the documentary evidence in reliable reference works, those details must be taken with a grain of salt.

message: I disambiguated Allen Township, Pennsylvania to link to Lower Allen Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, but this may not be correct. At the time Longnecker was born (1820), Allen Township was a single township in Cumberland County. But in 1850, it was split into Upper and Lower Allen Townships. I tried to find more details of his birth location, and ran across a source or two that said he was born near Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.

message: The article lists that Francine seems to have more Moderate views than her husband. The article sems to indicate that since Francine "has chastised Stan a few times on his homophobia and his sexism and racism" she is not showing a purely Conservative point of view; however, nothing about Conservativism requires sexism, racism, or homophobia. 
Opposing gay marraige tends to be driven in those circles by religious viewpoints, not homophobia. Also, Francine's a woman, and sexism would easily be a subject affecting her. The point being, Francine's position as being more Moderate than Stan has yet to be seen in the series. She may be just a normal Conservative woman.
