message: Doubtless i am showing my ignorance, and i'll probably regret asking this, but can someone please point out why this template is at the bottom of the page?  I can't see any reason for it in the wikticle at all.  Cheers, Lindsay 19:58, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There being no answer, and it being over a month, i'm pulling out the template.  Other than the presence of the template, there is no reference to any economic matters, let alone schools of thought, in the wikticle.  Cheers, Lindsay 07:07, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: Text like "...his disposition tender, gentle and loving..." and "...his humour, his wit, his overflowing vitality and boyish fun..." surely has no place in Wikipedia? Will give this a week from today (2010-03-20) for any feedback, but will remove and edit if none by then  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Noonand (talk • contribs) 23:39, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

Here's a photo of Charles Kingsley's grave in the St Mary's churchyard in Eversley. I don't know if it'll come in use in the article. 149.254.250.135 (talk) 18:48, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Grave photo 

message: I find this para confusing:
Kingsley was highly critical of Roman Catholicism and his argument, in print, with John Henry Newman, accusing him of untruthfulness and deceit, prompted the latter to write his Apologia Pro Vita Sua. He was racist towards the Irish and wrote in a letter to his wife from Ireland, 1860 "I am haunted by the human chimpanzees I saw along that hundred miles of horrible country [Ireland]...to see white chimpanzees is dreadful; if they were black one would not see it so much, but their skins, except where tanned by exposure, are as white as ours." Kingsley also wrote poetry and political articles, as well as several volumes of sermons.
Which one of them was racist, Kingsley or Newman?  137.186.115.104 (talk) 01:39, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: It was Kingsley who wrote that - I've clarified the sentence. Mind you, he could be quite racist to a whole lot of other peoples too, so it's probably a bit unbalanced for this page to only mention the Irish. Pasicles (talk) 19:49, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
