Talk:Lady Henrietta Spencer-Churchill

message: Very confused; her page at the moment refers to two husbands and dates that clash with another marriage, as follows:
I have her, from thepeerage.com http://www.thepeerage.com/p10642.htm#i106416
as being married ONLY to Nathan Gelber, having two children by him, and divorcing in 1989.  Her Wikipedia page doesn't mention Gelber at all (as at 17 Jun 2013, at least), but refers to two different husbands not mentioned at thepeerage.com...and the first of whom she'd've been in serious breach of some laws, if she married someone else before divorcing the first.  A Google search frequently refers to Nathan Gelber, but where Charlie Linston is concerned, any refs there are (and there aren't many) circularly refer back to Wikipedia, without further comment.  Of Mark Robson, there is even less (none, in fact, of a Google search '+Mark Robson +Churchill'). Are two Henriettas being conflated here, or is the marriage information on her page otherwise being confused with someone else?

Talk:Larry Heard

message: There's a factoid floating around that seems very obviously the product of some lazy research that Larry Heard was a face model for the Half Life series. Maybe a small note should be added to this page about this misconception. But honestly, I don't have a clear source either way, it just seems obvious to me that it's a different guy. His Discogs page makes no mention of going by "The Count," and that seems proof enough to me. 2601:5C1:4500:A00:9CE6:EC34:F3F7:FDB0 (talk) 00:14, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

Talk:LaTasha Jenkins

message: I took this out as I added the information of a reportedly failed A sample test in late July 2006. It seems she was not retired after all? I was a bit extra liberal because that paragraph had a Wikicode comment actually making up the sentence "Apparently Jenkins retired in 2003", which made me think it was inferred from not showing up in major sports events. Of course, feel free to add it back if there's sources actually saying she retired for some time at that point. -- Northgrove 19:11, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:GolfCross

message: This game was invented by Burton Silver, the inventor of the (fictional) Japanese art of Kokigami and furtling, the (fictional) Victorian erotic art of finger manipulation, and many aspects of this game look somewhat suspicious, for example, the superb flight characteristics of the oval golfball.
However, there are a number of websites worldwide that claim to offer courses for this game. Presumably, if enough people play a game that looks like a spoof game, presumably it becomes a real game...
If this is a real game, can someone provide an independent verifiable source for GolfCross being played by numerous third parties that does not lead back to Brton Silver, his website, his book, or his associates as a source? For example, video footage of GolfCross being played by third parties, or news stories where someone has actually seen it played, oval balls, goals, and all. As ever, blogs don't count. -- Arthur Frayn 11:29, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

The media still talk about his game in the 2002 Grand Final, but never mention the Game that got Collingwood to that Grand Final."

What kind of an impact did he have on late-night TV at the time? What do people say about his respectful interviews with people like Mohammad Ali? 
I realize I'm asking for a lot, and it would take someone who knows very much about him to fill out the texture of the impact he had, if any, on TV and US culture. (The "if any" is intended to be provocative LOL!)121.163.188.1 (talk) 14:18, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
