Talk:Antoine Bibesco

message: There was some confusion made between Antoine Bibesco and Robert de Montesquiou as a result of something said by Proust. It was actually Montesquiou that Proust meant when he said that he "can legitimately claim to stand in the line of succession to the throne of France", as Montesquiou was indeed a descendant of the House of France.
****
The actual Proust quote (in a section of "Pastiches et Melanges" that was added after the marriage of Antoine Bibesco and Elizabeth Asquith) reads, "She (Elizabeth) could, it is true, have had her pick among all the great ones of the earth, but what these critics did not know was that the Bibescos, like the Noailles, the Montesquious, the Chimays and the Bauffremonts, all belong to the House of Caput, and can legitimately claim to stand in the line of succession to the throne of France."  <span style="font-size: smaller;" Paul Darby173.35.58.235 (talk) 21:23, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Anton de Kom

message: As was not uncommon, his surname is a reversal of the slave owner's name, who was called Mok.
An extensive study was conducted and published (2003) by Okke ten Hove, Heinrich E. Helstone & Wim Hoogbergen (ISBN 90-5170-777-0) concerning the process of administration of slaves and their names (pages 44-47). These authors have also created a database containing all names of the slaves that is maintained online by Dutch national archives. See http://www.gahetna.nl/collectie/index/nt00341. Nowhere in their book the convention "reversal of the slave owner's name" is mentioned. 
Another point is that the owner of the slaves working and living on Plantage Molshoop, were Anton's parents lived in 1863 was Hendrik Jan Veldwijk (this can be verified online).
The authors of "Anton de Kom, biografie" (ISBN 978-90-450-3282-5) state on page 15 that Doortje (grandparent) chooses the surname De Kom for unknown reason.
I therefor suggest to remove this sentence unless a valid (scientific) source can be provided.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daalbhaat (talk • contribs) 14:22, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Anton Schmid

message: During the few minutes it took Kovner to tell of the help
that had come from a German sergeant, a hush settled over
the courtroom; it was as though the crowd had spontaneously
decided to observe the usual two minutes of silence in honor
of the man named Anton Schmid. And in those two
minutes, which were like a sudden burst of light in the
midst of impenetrable, unfathomable darkness, a single
thought stood out clearly, irrefutably, beyond question — how
utterly different everything would be today in this courtroom,
in Israel, in Germany, in all of Europe, and perhaps in
all countries of the world, if only more such stories could
have been told. (taken from: Hannah Arendt, Eichmann in Jerusalem)

message: I came here looking for an informed article on Twizzlers. Beyond just the bare minimum perfunctory history of Y&S, I wanted to know about what happened to the green (mint?) twizzlers of days past. Also, a little info on the chemical makeup of the current "strawberry" twizzlers would be nice since they have a very appealing, but obviously chemical-laden taste. Makes me wonder what really is in them. So I came here, and what do I get? Half the article is about some stupid jewish "law". I'm sure that twizzlers cannot be the only food that is in question, why not spin the jewish law thing off to another article, or at least explain why it pertains only to twizzlers.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.206.211.14 (talk) 22:36, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Shout (band)

message: I removed a bit with a citation from the body of the article that said the band were unprofitable "despite" selling at least a hundred thousand records by the time they split up. The way this is presented is making a ton of assumptions about the music business that don't stand up to scrutiny. Within a few years of Shout breaking up, Nirvana would sell eight million copies of Nevermind; for his troubles, Kurt Cobain only received a million dollars. That's a dollar for every eight CDs he sold. And it took some time to get that far, even for how popular the album was. Read Come as You Are: The Story of Nirvana. A statement like this in the article demonstrates a lack of understanding of how record industry politics work (and if it actually  from the source, as in the source itself phrased it that way, that's incredibly tacky of THEM and we should avoid parroting their mistake).

Talk:1,2-Dibromo-3-chloropropane

message: In rats a portion of the DBCP dose was shown to be excreted as mercapturic acids products. It is common for halogenated hydrocarbons to deplete the animal's cysteine stores, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis. Therefore, it would make sense to supplement the diet with cysteine, this should minimize the adverse effects on protein synthesis of DBCP and also help in the elimination of DBCP.
