message: Clearly, only one article is needed about this person. I favour this version without "Australian" in the title - there are not that many Peter Hayes that we need to be so specific (and wordy) in the title. WWGB 23:31, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proposed merge 

message: This is a bit of a silly argument but I'll expand more here.  What is being changed here is the title of the reference.  What the correct spelling is, that it's spelt multiple ways etc is all irrelevant.  We should report the title of the reference accurately - after all the point of the reference is to help find the referenced document and that's best done with the correct title.  Now if there name was being used in the text then I'd agree we should use the correct name or if there's doubt report both or use some sort of compromise but in the title of the reference we should use the exact spelling used in the title of the referenced document.

replies: text: Thanks Dpmuk.  I was going to start a talk discussion but wanted to see if just using G.A. was a good compromise first.  Hopefully now that we have had this silly discussion no one else will change the spelling back to Giuseppe. Philiashasspots (talk) 03:20, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know or have access to the outcome of the coronial investigation to the death of Peter Hayes QC. That should really be a part of the article.  Philiashasspots (talk) 03:20, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I have put an "update" tag on the article. As it stands it's completely unsatisfactory. We don't really know why he died. The article also says that one of the women was charged, but there is no mention of any court case. From my searching, there seems to be no reporting about either the coronial inquest or the criminal case. If it never went to court, it seems misleading and unfair for the article to mention the charge.--Jack Upland (talk) 04:37, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Johannes von Kries

message: He doesn't state his sources, but this "descendent" rakison of JvK lists some good info and has a photo:
http://www.psy.cmu.edu/~rakison/rakison_lineage.htm
I quote him:
----
Johannes von Kries (1853-1928)
In the second half of the 19th century Johannes von Kries, a physiologist who was applying probability theory to the evaluation of the effectiveness of new drugs, realised that the computation of probability distributions depends on the classification of symptoms and pathologies into diseases. Confronted with a setting where the crucial uncertainty was the very definition of "events" by the experimenter, von Kries developed the logical foundations of a probability theory where the subjectivity of mental representations may impair the possibility of assigning numerical values to probabilities. With a series of distortions and misunderstandings, von Kries's ideas passed on to Keynes and formed the core of his economics.
Johannes von Kries wrote one of the most philosophically important works on the foundation of probability after P. S. Laplace and before the First World War, his Principien der Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung (1886, repr. 1927). In this book, von Kries developed a highly original interpretation of probability, which maintains it to be both logical and objectively physical.
----
There's a good abstract, also about probability, here: http://www.math.uni-bonn.de/people/fotfs/VI/abstracts.html. 
Someone who is into probability should write up these aspects of his work.

Talk:Violin Sonata No. 1 (Prokofiev)

message: ???
At Prokofiev's surely? Not at both, since apparently not only did they die on the same day, but their funerals were at the same time - and Oistrakh played the first and third movements of the F minor sonata at Prokofiev's sonata at the composer's funeral. Must have been quite a rush to be back-and-forth to Stalin's funeral, too, to play them there. Anyway, Stalin's favorite music wasn't Prokofiev, but Mozart... Odd! Source?

message: A release of what I assume was the Oistrakh/Oborin premiere (live recording, on Brilliant Classics 8713-51) gives the date January 1 1946- assuming this is accurate (not all of their dates are - they give a 1961 date for a Shostakovich 2nd cello concerto recording, 5 years before that work was composed, I believe), was the work finished on that day, or was it composed between 1938 and 1945?

message: As for the merti of fusion of this page with Ceng, I disagree on the grounds that this is from a time period way before the recognition of the Turkish version of this tool.

Talk:Citole

message: I wrote this article but have unable to get anyone to assess it. I will try to be neutral and will happily allow someone else to change the assessment. I assessed this as a c quality article for the Wikiproject Musical Instruments, it being in depth with many sections and images and references. However it needs more than just characteristics and construction/tuning. It needs context--who played it, what kind of music, who heard it?  I rated it a mid importance because it was a widespread instrument in Medieval European music and may have influenced the development of other instruments, including guitar. The article is comparable to gittern or Mandore (instrument). If you improve it and want reassessment or to change the assessment or need help or have questions, please drop me a line.Jacqke (talk) 03:08, 10 May 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: My issue with the citation is that it sources the statement that Rachmaninoff  (sourced to "Wehrmeyer 2006", p. 51), which seems incongruous with the other sources I look at, all of which say that he wrote the piece from January to March in 1909. – Michael Aurel (talk) 03:26, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Esperanza Baur

message: This is unclear as to whether the affair or merely the accusation occurred during divorce proceedings.  (I presume the sentence is not intended to be taken literally, that physical relations occurred "during divorce proceedings," in the courtroom, before the judge.)  If the affair occurred entirely prior to divorce proceedings, then the sentence could be, "During divorce proceedings, Esperanza was accused of having had an affair with hotel heir Nicky Hilton."  If the affair was ongoing during divorce proceedings, then, "During divorce proceedings, Esperanza was accused of having an affair with hotel heir Nicky Hilton."

Talk:Suite No. 1 (Rachmaninoff)

message: I cannot really find the poem "the night...the love..." by Byron in the net. I find a poem titled "The Tears" by Tyutchev in the net but it is a long poem. But the one in the scores is a very short one. I want to read these poems so much. Please somebody find the translation of them... The "The Tears" poem I have founded is that:
	O lacrimarum fons....
	Friends, I love to let my eyes caress
	the sparkling, deep red of the wine,
	or peer through the foliage
	at the scented ruby of the vine.
	..........
	I love to watch creation deep
	in spring time in sweet fragrance
	when the world is slumbering sweetly
	and is smiling in its sleep!
	..........
	I love the face of a pretty girl
	ablaze in the breeze of spring,
	her cheeks folding into dimples,
	the sensual silk of her curls.
	..........
	But what are Venus's delights,
	the juice of the grape and roses' aromas,
	compared to you, oh sacred well of tears,
	the dew of the god's morning light!
	..........
	Heavenly beams play upon them
	and, refracted in fiery showers,
	on the storm-clouds of existence
	they sketch rainbow-living colours.
	..........
	And should the pupils of mortal man
	be brushed by the wings of the angel of tears,
	then the mist will vanish in tearful swirls
	and  a sky of seraph faces
	will before our eyes unfurl.
There is also a poem called "Tears Of People, Tears Of People" which is confused with the former somtimes. And it is:
	Tears of people, tears of people,
	morning and evening you fall,
	pouring invisibly, poured in obscurity,
	never an end to you, flowing so constantly,
	flowing as rain in its torrents careers
	deep in the autumn, when night covers all.
And "The Easter" is also impossible to find to in the net.

message: Not quite sure how to edit Symphonic Dances (Rachmaninoff) page.  I did so to the best of my ability, and added my source.

Actually I've never seen a hint in any discography of a studio recording of this piece by Mitropoulos (whether in NY, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, or elsewhere) and it certainly didn't appear in Sony's complete Mitropoulos Columbia box set if it exists. There is a broadcast from January 1950 (with NYPO) which has recently appeared on a couple CD labels, though. 100.14.123.190 (talk) 18:40, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
