Talk:Mikhail Glinka

message: I've reviewed this article for the Composers project review of its B-class articles.  This article is B-class; it needs a listing of his works, and an enlarged discussion of his influence, especially on The Five.

thread_title: Composer project review

message: He was married, was interested in women all his life, and the only thing I can see that could possibly shed any doubt on his heterosexuality is "In Spain, Glinka met Don Pedro Fernandez, who remained his secretary and companion for the last nine years of his life".  Companion does not necessarily mean any kind of sexual partner.  I'm removing him from "Gay musicians" unless something more substantial can be provided (if it exists).  --  JackofOz (talk) 08:31, 24 May 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Classical? 

message: ...is often regarded as the fountainhead of Russian classical music.
:– 'Fountainhead,' though intelligible, is not a word typically employed in such a context in English – Ayn Rand notwithstanding. Is this an attempt to avoid putative gender bias by not saying "the father of Russian classical music," which would be more usual? If so, it seems artificial and awkward, IMO.

Talk:Grant O. Gale

message: Is there any reason this article should not be nominated for deletion?  Prof. Gale was not particularly renowned as having give rise to a generation of notable students, nor is he remarkable for his own scientific work.  Countless long-tenured faculty have places on campus named after them.  Anyone want to make an argument why he should have a WP page?   Vaudedoc (talk) 17:20, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Right, but again, Prof. Gale is himself a non-notable scientist with apparently a singular notable student.  While he may have been "the primary contributor to the current state of the Physics department at Grinnel," that department itself is not particularly notable.  By these rationales, every instructor of someone who later went on to accomplishments and every person who was integral to the development of building of any organization would qualify for a page.

Talk:Jewellery in the Pacific

message: :1. Well written? O.K. (needs copyediting)
:2. Factually accurate? Fail (citations missing)
:3. Broad in coverage? O. K. (history section maybe)
:4. Neutral point of view? Pass
:5. Article stability? Pass
:6. Images? Pass
Additional comments :
* The first sentence Jewellery making in the Pacific started later than in other areas, due to relatively recent human settlement can already be refuted ... there were humans on Pacific Islands 30 000 BC which makes it really early.
* The precise start of island jewellery-making is difficult to pinpoint, due to many of the island nations' founders migrating there from other areas, such as Tahiti. Could this be rephrased to incorporate the fact that there were nations before we have writings from there and thus, it is assumed that people lived there since the beginning of the separation of the island from Pangea.
* One expects to hear about the history or the theories of the bringing of the art of jewel making on Pacific islands but there is no section pertaining only on that.
* There is a bit of copyediting to be done.
* The power associated with the headdresses in Papua New Guinea is phenomenal gives a point of view.
* Please confort such a statement, Tribesmen may wear boar bones through their noses, very much like the typical tribal cliché people outside these cultures use, with a citation for if Westerners didn't go there (which is implied by the preceding line) how can one know about that.
* Is the sentence, due to the fact that in other cultures, people who could afford jewellery were considered wealthier and more important in ancient times., true? Could we have a citation for it.

replies: text: I have provided a reference under "References". Yes I know that it isn't an inline citation, but do you really want to have the same bliming citation on every paragraph?? So at the end of para 1, same citation. End of para 2, same citation. End of para 3, same citation. And so on... The footnote's section would be huge! I hate how people only allow inline citations, as who really wants what I have described above. The book I've used was very informative, hence why most of the article was based on it.

Talk:George Uhlenbeck

message: For the simple reason that the Netherlands did not have or recognise Bachelor's Degrees until very recently.  The most likely degree for Uhlenbeck to have been awarded in 1920 would have been the title of doctorandus (drs.), roughly equivalent to a Masters Degree.  The normal sequence at Dutch universities was, until  recently : Propadeuse (2yrs), Kandidaats (2yrs), Doctoraal (1yr).  Only the Doctoraal was actually a finishing degree and allowed the qualifier to put the drs. title in front of his name, the others merely marked the completion of a set of exams and of a set number of papers.  Roughly 90% of students would leave to start their careers after obtaining their drs, only 10% spending another 4 yrs on writing a dissertation and obtaining the title of doctor (dr.) which is marked as 'PhD' in the Anglo-Saxon system (tho' somewhat more easily obtained there, it seems).
I didn't update the text, because I don't know that Uhlenbeck got a 'drs.', I only know that it could not have been a Bachelor's.
