Talk:Corradino D'Ascanio

message: Someone should document several points written about Ing. D'Ascanio, the Augusta helicopter, the Vespa and the Lambretta, all related to each other, but which I think they are not true.
I met D'ascanio and my brother worked with him. My brother has a file of notes written by D'Ascanio himself about the relevant projects and events he was involved between 1928 and 1980.
From these it seems that several events do not match what is on Wiki.
The two main discrepancies are: 
That D'Ascanio "designed the first production helicopter, for Agusta". Although D'Ascanio had a connection with Augusta, this was much later, after 1978, when he used an Augusta motor for his new 2-seater helicopter designed for agricultural purposes.
The second is that D'Ascanio "designed the first motor scooter for Ferdinando Innocenti. After the two fell out, D'Ascanio helped Enrico Piaggio produce the original Vespa." D'ascanio never worked or contracted for Innocenti. He never had a relation with Innocenti. The history of the invention of the Vespa in 1946 is explained in my page: http://www.riverpool.com/dascanio.html half the way on the right. Innocenti copied the Vespa idea and created the Lambretta independently, about a year later. 
The above page reports the history of the Vespa and some other D'Ascanio inventions as per D'Ascanio's notes (in addition to my brother and my recollection).
Other minor discrepancies about the Vespa may also be corrected by looking at the above page.

thread_title: Merge proposal

message: This article is about a school, not about a building.  I went there as a pupil in 1937 when it was in Mill Hill, NW7, then evacuated as a boarding school to West Ogwell, Devonshire during WW2, before it finally settled where it is now, in Newbury. (I am indebted to former student Brenda Tillotson, who this year privately printed a handbook about her memories, which fortunately jogged mine. I hope she will put it online, so it can be referenced properly.)
I also hope the school will update their website to show more of their proud history. I am pleased to see that they still take boys up to a certain age, and I have to say that I learned about sex from the girls, owing to frequent games of "I'll show you mine if you show me yours". There were three boys I remember, Robin, me, and Ian Danoon. We'd sit down surrounded by the girls, supervision nowhere in sight. "Let the games begin" sounded silently, and so we became little show-offs. Ian's mother was a "house mother" during the war, and was in charge of a batch of us kids in one corner of the house. Ian would take charge of the keyhole to his mother's bedroom, and so we'd all get to watch her get undressed for bed. Oh, the memories come piling in. Time I got back to my memoirs, and filling in with this kind of detail.JohnClarknew (talk) 23:35, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Theale Green School

message: I can find no source material to back this up, which is why I'm posting it here in the hope that someone else can. Otherwise, I'm sure it would count as "original research".
The reference to the school becoming a comprehensive and changing its name to Theale Green in 1973 is factually incorrect. The first comprehensive intake occurred in September 1971 and continued thereafter. It might, perhaps, be correct to say that after the 1973 intake the majority of pupils would have been "comprehensive" rather than "grammar" but the change of name occurred well before this too. I believe it was already in place by September 1971. By 1972 to avoid the appearance of splitting pupils into different classes based on ability (where the grammar school would have named classes for some subjects 2-1, 2-2, 2-3 and so on) the classes became 2T, 2H,... 2G, 2R and 2N using the unique letters in the words Theale Green.
Richard Fawcett, one of the authors of the book cited for this particular fact, should know better. He was a master, and housemaster, at Theale in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Talk:Edgewood station (MARC)

message: I moved the article back to Edgewood station as DanTD's moves left a very convoluted arrangement, with the basename Edgewood station redirecting to Edgewood station (disambiguation), making it WP:MALPLACED. This is easily the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of all Edgewood stations; Edgewood Railroad Station (New York) is a stub on a station for the Ulster and Delaware Railroad that closed in 1932; it has no sources and probably shouldn't exist. Edgewood / Candler Park station is a partial title match that's only on the dab page in case readers know it as "Edgewood". And even if this article needed disambiguation, as Dan knows, Edgewood (MARC station) is a deprecated title, especially as this station also serves Amtrak.--Cúchullain t/c 19:20, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

message: Closely aligned with this concept are WP:THINKTANK and WP:NEIGHBORHOODWATCH. Aldrich Hanssen (talk) 04:17, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Think tanks and neighborhood watches 

message: In support of the position on , I would add that Wikipedia does not pay its editors. In a commercial enterprise, what does it cost to hire people who can do the following tasks?
* Write high-quality encyclopedia articles.
* Provide rapid, accurate, and friendly technical support (such as on Wikipedia's Help desk and many other assistance pages).
* Identify and fix bugs in the software.
* Continuously improve Wikipedia's internal documentation.
* Participate in Wikipedia's internal procedures such as WP:RFA, WP:AFD, etc.
The amount of free skilled labor Wikipedia gets from its contributors, particularly its most productive contributors, vastly outweighs the trivial (and steadily declining) cost of providing some Web space for user pages. If we take the point of view that Wikipedia compensates its editors for their work in part by giving them the ability to put up some pages where they can socialize and meet other Wikipedians who share their interests, then we should judge user pages not so much according to what is on them, but to what extent they encourage their "owners" to continue donating free labor to Wikipedia proper. Even users who are new and haven't contributed much to the encyclopedia yet can learn the basics of wikitext editing with much less trauma by practicing on their user pages, where they won't have all their contributions mercilessly edited by others right away. On Wikipedia there is no deadline, so we can afford to tolerate lavish user pages by users who take a while to become productive, as long as they are heading towards eventually becoming productive, or if their user pages are attracting other people to Wikipedia who then become productive. Only user pages with content which directly contradicts Wikipedia's mission should require active intervention (spam, personal attacks, extreme POV-pushing, etc.). --Teratornis (talk) 14:55, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
