Talk:Axel Jensen

message: Perhaps "And the Rest is Wrote in the Stars" would be a better translation of the title, as the original title includes a similar "error". --Odd M. Nilsen 14:58, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  And the Rest is Written in the Stars 

message: Several articles project-wide contains a line saying something to the effect that "Axel Jensen had a relationship with Cohen's girlfriend Lena." In no instance is this claim sourced.
It seems to have been first introduced by a Norwegian IP to :no:Axel Jensen on 30 August 2005, then to Swedish Wikipedia on 3 September 2005, and found its way to the English Wikipedia on 23 September 2005.
Since then it found its way into :en:Marianne Ihlen on its creation 14 August 2016‎. Unsourced. And from there it entered German Wikipedia on 22 October 2016 quote "Axel Jensen hatte eine kurze Affäre mit Cohens damaliger Freundin.", French Wikipedia on 3 November 2016 quote "Son mari l'auteur norvégien, Axel Jensen l'a quitte pour Lena, la propre petite amie de Leonard Cohen", and Chinese Wikipedia 20 November 2016 quote "詹森和科恩的女友莉娜有着微妙的关系。".
I suppose this Lena could be the Swedish woman Lena Folke-Olsson (Thresher, 2004; Jensen & Mejlænder, 2002;) with whom Jensen had two kids and lived in Larvik, Norway from 1962, and Folke-Olsson was indeed part of the group of foreign artist living on Hydra, Greece (Hesthamar, 2014, pp. 78-). I can, however, find no mention of Cohen having had a relationship to any Lena, in fact neither Simmons, 2012, nor Nadel, 2010, mentions any Lena at all. Thus, I'm going to do a round on the project pages mentioned and remove the statement. Unfortunately, several news sources have already picked up this error and printed it as a fact.

Talk:Dragon's teeth (mythology)

message: Anyone have an idea where the phrase "sowing broadcast" the dragon's teeth comes from?  I've traced it to Dickens (Tale of Two Cities, III.4, "Calm in Storm"; 1859); Hawthorne, Scarlet Letter (1850) and also his Golden Fleece book in 1888.  Interested in particular because of the reference also in Nixon in China (opera).  -- Myke Cuthbert (talk) 03:32, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know if this helps, but broadcasting is a type of sowing - throwing the seeds widely while progressing over a field. It is from this that that broadcasting in the radio sense is derived. Gaius Cornelius (talk) 08:37, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  "broadcast" 

message: I question whether the Dragon's Teeth (fortification) and Dragon's Teeth (mass effect weapon) are cultural references to the mythological use of Dragon's Teeth. Personally, I think they refer more to the idea of a dragon's teeth (e.g. the fortification looks like teeth), and not to the Dragon's Teeth that grow warriors. Others' thoughts would be appreciated.

message: I propose merging Spartoi into Dragon's teeth (mythology). I think the content in Spartoi is near-identical to that of Dragon's teeth (mythology), and a merger would not cause any article-size or weighting problems in here. I am choosing Dragon's teeth as the destination page due to its much-simpler-to-find name.

Talk:Coaxial antenna

message: Came here via the discone antenna page, to which I've been attempting to add a few minor polishes.
I've added a redirect from a new page coaxial dipole, as I would think of this antenna style as a "coaxial dipole" rather than a "coaxial antenna" - but I'm certainly prepared to be corrected.
With the greatest respect to the original contributor, the previous version of this article seemed to be little more than a very lightly-edited version of the page at searchmobilecomputing.techtarget.com cited in "External Links".

thread_title:  Pollock family 

message: Patterson ordered Jones to take his five gunboats out. As a direct consequence Jones encountered the British. Notwithstanding some defensive advantages, the overwhelming size of the British longboats made it unlikely that Jones would win.
I have seen some comments along the lines of
:The British won control of the lakes, but the battle gave General Andrew Jackson more time to strengthen his defenses. 
:'The gunboat action on Lake Borgne, although resulting in the capture of the gunboats, served to delay the British'
They come with an unpronounced prefix of "yes, but..." Is there any reliable sources that can demonstrate this had any impact upon the British? I've not seen anything to indicate that this had any material impact on the British, who disembarked their troops on December 23. When the British had landed, the US Navy was able to be a hindrance, which did help in extra time to prepare Line Jackson for the imminent assault, and subsequent defeat, of the British.
