message: Template "navigation" should not be used here because this template (Apple celeb) is only one line and therefore does not need a hide button. Offering UI elements that aren't going to help people does not make sense. I have therefore gone out of my way to create a similar template without this button, . Tasc, on the other hand, has simply reverted all changes made by me, and tried to force his vision of a unified world on everybody else. My opinion is that we must be able to accept plurality in template space. - Samsara (talk • contribs) 12:58, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Walter Bradford Cannon

message: It is evident that this is a hard biography to do even though there is ample material to support a good narrative of his life. One of the reasons is clear from the exchange found at Medical education#Case study which shows that his autobiography The Way of the Investigator may be misleading. These wiki's may be helpful to the courageous: G. W. Pierce and Wicht Club (1903 - 1911). Rgdboer 20:23, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: First among them [demands on an investgator] is resourcefulness. ... As the frontiersman may make a corn knife out of a broken scythe blade, or a butcher knife out of a rusty file, or a soap factory from an empty barrel and an iron kettle, so the pioneering investigator may be compelled to use his ingenuity to the limit in adapting available appraratus and materials to the purposes he has in mind.
The "frontiersman" insights would be natural to George Washington Pierce's background but not to Cannon's. The book invites textual analysis. It is an important testament from a key physiologist; it is essential for understanding him.Rgdboer (talk) 22:35, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

message: A biography by H.H. Hall has just been discovered by Duncan Hull and posted in references. This biography notes Cannon's venture into the subject of neurotransmission.

thread_title:  Fellow of Royal Society 

message: There is passing mention he was a 'military physician' in WWI, but this could say more, eg rank achieved, any awards, countries in which he served. Today I read of him in Bill Bryson's The Body, A Guide for Occupants (published 2019), when treating his work on homeostasis, that Cannon "At the outbreak of the First World War, he enlisted as a volunteer for the Harvard Hospital Unit even though he was forty-five years old and the father of five children. He spent two years in Europe as a field doctor." There seems to be no Wikipedia article whose title matches that quoted by Bryson although I understand a unit manned by Harvard doctors did go to France, its other members included Wilfred Grenfell of Labrador coast fame (a Briton born). As Cannon was born 1871, Bryson's narrative shows Cannon joined the year the USA entered WWI, 1917 rather than 1914 when hostilities broke out in Europe.Cloptonson (talk) 19:45, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

message: ===Life===
"The play is, I think, of negligible literary merit..."
"...that the audience devours him [Thoreau] is a reminder that the cross-country market for upbeat drama and youth-heroes is wide open."
"The theater has every right to be
as timely as a newspaper. But like
newspaper, a strictly newsy play soon
loses !ts urgency and is tossed aside. I
doubt if any documentary play can
have permanent value."
===National Review===
Writing in The National Review, Richmond Crinkley scorned the play's anti-war message and those with whom the message resonated. "Platitudinous piety explains much of the play's success with universities. All of the clichés and supposedly relevant comments on our own times are there—the apocalyptic and "daring" comment being the implied parallel between President Polk and the Mexican War and President Nixon and the Vietnam war.... [Thoreau is a] real hero for our times, predictable, programmable, and empty."
Crinkley also refers to "numerous, sometimes excellent productions at colleges and universities during the past eighteen months" and asserts that the production at the Arena Stage in Washington "is a marvel at concealing the play's defects. Norman Gevanthour's often inspired direction keeps the action a half-step ahead of the audience's perception that what has just been said is vacuous and dramatically uninteresting."

Category talk:Paintings by year

message: So this is when the painting is first displayed?
Is year by year granularity perhaps a bit too fine? Maybe for every decade would be better?
:Ideally there would be a year-decade-century hierarchy, but I'm not sure there are enough paintings for that. Recently I've done :Category:Novels by year, with the full hierarchy, essentially the same as Books by year. Some would say that there are not enough novels, and there are fewer paintings still.
:As far as paintings are concerned, this categorization is obviously hardly useful for browsing, but it makes some sense for tagging purposes. And yes, this is a limitation of WikiMedia software. E.g. I want to see a list of all 1960s novels. But I can't, I have to click all individual years in the decade. Same would be with paintings. (True, there is Cat Scan: . It doesn't work 100% correctly at the moment, though.)
:Finally, the year is when the painting was finished, or - if that is unknown/uncertain - when it was first displayed. If both years are unknown, it should go somewhere under paintings by century... GregorB 11:21, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Categorizing directly by decade (and not by year) is somewhat unusual... Categorizing by both decade and year (so that an article is directly put in both) would also be unusual; it is a general rule that redundant categorization should be avoided (e.g. a 1923 book is by definition also a 1920s book, so there is no need to say it explicitly). That's why there are no articles directly under book by decade. Note that all this is done through templates (compare Template:Paintingyr and Template:Bookyr), not by hand! GregorB 16:22, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

text: Why is it that when I go to say 1821 books, there is a small menu with all the years of the 1820s and i can easily walk along year by year, but when I go to 1821 paintings, there is no such small menu with the years of the 1820s? How can we fix this? (Rajah 01:58, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That simply requires an adjustment to the template.  Since it will probably require additional parameters, it will probably need all the articles moved to a temporary template and then copied back (so that nothing is broken). I will try to get to that, as well as organizing the paintings from years into decades and then centuries so that it is in a organized structure. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 17:29, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Would anyone object if I create a temporary template, putting all paintings into their respective works categories, and also into decades and then centuries, i.e., :Category:1663 paintings would go into both :Category:1663 works and :Category:1660s paintings? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 23:45, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: I wonder whether we should include the putative Albanian origin at all. We have all sources speaking of Turkish origin beside the few cited here to support the "Albanian claim" (to be clear, beside the sources provided in the article and available at Google books, Britannica clearly states his father was a Turk, and Treccani, the Italian encyclopedia, like Britannica and all other national encyclopedias, makes no mention of even a possible Albanian origin). Then, if we want to reason with our head, we known he was born in Palaiokipos and that his father was from Giannitsa, that he was not of devshirme origin, and that he was not the son of a janissary, but the son of a sipahi. We have three sources for the Albanian claim across the board. I am positive that Bozbora does not mention Barbarossa at all. At least that should be removed. The rest are two books by Italian authors. Capponi is derivative of Panzanelli. The latter's is a translation of Heers, in which there is a casual mention, with Heers not providing a modicum of evidence for the claim, nor any analysis whatsoever. This is an extraordinary claim, and I believe it all might be a case of Wikipedia:Verifiable but not false.--Haldir Marchwarden (talk) 11:41, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
