It is with much sadness that I am going to fail the GA nomination of this article for now, definitely without prejudice -- please renominate!  The article is pretty well written, but there are a few snags.  First off, it seems that this article is very short (but packed with references!).  I think perhaps a little expansion is in order (especially the significance of the topic).  I also think we could get a few more pictures in the article.  One of the sources (#9 I believe) is a wikipedia internal reference (though I applaud the inline citation formatting).  I think that with some work this could be a more comprehensive article worthy of WP:GA status.  /Blaxthos 06:59, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I don't have a source on hand- I think one of Herzog's DVD commentaries for Woyzeck or Stroszek. If I recall correctly, Herzog got Bruno to take a vacation from work to do Woyzeck, but then decided that Bruno was wrong for the part. Bruno was still available though, so he created Stroszek in a matter of days and shot it with Bruno. Woyzeck eventually got made later with Kinsky. Staecker (talk) 12:14, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Category talk:Roads in Miami-Dade County, Florida

message: An interesting little "factlet" (not "factoid" because this bit of trivia is indeed a fact) is that Miami-Dade County has some of the highest numbered streets in the United States (if this is not true, please let us know!). Miami streets and avenues follow a grid pattern: the meeting point is Miami Avenue and Flagler Street in the heart of downtown Miami. This divides the city into four quadrants: NE, NW, SE, SW. Most, but not all of the towns and communities in Miami-Dade County conform to this street numbering system. After carefully scanning maps I found a SW 297th Ave. and also a street as far south as 424th St. However, the most remote intersection I could find was SW 217th Ave. and 400th St. The northernmost street I could find is NE 212th St. If anyone has additional information, please post a comment.

replies: text: It seems there may be a few places like that.  For instance Gainesville, Florida, on googlemaps shows streets going as far west as SW 298th and over 200s going east for most of Alachua County, Florida.  I don't know of any that go as far as in the 400s like Dade County does.  Perhaps other cities in other States?   -     Marc Averette 14:40, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I too have seen the maps and have gone as far as SW 237th AV (there is a state park there that I have visited). I will later in the week attempt to find the more extreme avenues. SW 424th ST does exist (it is the only #'d street after 400). There is a prison on the road and it connects to U.S.-1 on the way to the Florida Keys.Bsd987 (talk) 00:47, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Was Una her real name?  Either way, what is her full birth name?  Elsquared (talk) 05:16, 26 August 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: yes, all sources have her given name as "Una".  Some sources give "Kohnfelder" as her surname at birth, and some other-language Wikipedias include that in her articles; however, that name is not included here because none of the sources we've seen appear to be "reliable" by en-wiki's standards.  Her father's surname was "Merkel" and her mother's surname before she married her father was "Phares", so there seems to be a lot of confusion out there and no reliable sources weighing in.

Talk:Durward Kirby

message: I apologize for changing this to "Kerwood," which was how I remembered it, after someone else apparently already had attended to the spelling. I have since watched one of the cartoons on YouTube and the voice actors are clearly pronouncing the second R, so I was wrong, although the cartoon I saw did not show the name in any onscreen titles, which may have been what I remembered. If "Kirward" is correct, however, then it is incorrect to say that the spoonerism was based on a mispronunciation, so I took that part out when reverting the spelling. Richard K. Carson (talk) 04:55, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Concerning that Rocky & Bullwinkle serial, the article states that Kirby was convinced not to pursue legal action, but in that case, why was it not seen for many years (it did turn up on Nickelodeon, c. 1990), and why have several sources attributed that situation to a suit, or at least a threat of one, from Kirby?

message: If a reliable source could be found for the reason he was given such an unusual name (from relative or neighbor, from a place, from a fictional character such as "Quentin Durward" by Walter Scott, for instance) ) it would improve the article. Edison (talk) 05:21, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Why "Durward?"

message: I have no idea when this person was born. IMBD (not a reliable source for this kind of information -- they're sloppy) has him as August 24, 1912. Find-a-grave (also not a reliable source for this kind of information -- also sloppy) has him at August 24, 1911.
There there are a bunch of sites that have him at one of these two dates, split about evenly. I'm confident that all of these sites are just copying the date from some other source (whether IMBD, Find-a-grave, or other sites) without actually researching it. Then of course there's the mirrors of our own article.
However, Find-a-grave has a picture of his gravestone. It looks like a legit pic and there's no reason to assume it's not. And August 24, 1911 is chiseled into the granite. That could certainly be wrong. Families do get these things wrong. But I think that's the closest thing was have to a reliable source, so let's go with that until we can get hold of a birth certificate or obituary in a reliable paper or something.

thread_title:  Birth date 

message: Kirby did not spend the entire war period in the navy.  There is at least one recording (Nov. 3, 1943) of Kirby announcing the news on the CBS Daytime Radio Newspaper with Bernadine Flynn, which was sponsored by Crisco.

Talk:Frequency changer

message: There's a sort of converter that used to be common and doesn't seem to be mentioned... one consisting of a  large transformer in which the secondary winding was on a rotor, and the primary the stator. The ones I knew were synchronous, driven by a smaller motor to gain 10 Hz so they could run on Australia's 50 Hz mains and produce the 60 Hz that some IBM mainframes demanded.
http://www.georator.com/ProductRotaryMotorGenerator.html
describes some similar machines, but wound on one shaft so that the motor was synchronous too. That's not necessary with a belt-driven system... most of the energy is going into the primary coils, so the synchronous dynamo locks on and the motor just has to follow suit.

message: The article makes it clear that Personality Crisis is a notable band, it contained members that have gone on to play in other notable bands, their sound was very influential in later punk rock.It's interesting that the person tagging the article for deletion has interests in classical music etc., nothing wrong with that but leave discussion of articles on punk rock to people who know what they're talking about.
:It would seriously help if someone could turn the article into readable English. It's not quite coherent.

Talk:Eifel Transmitter

message: It is the tallest architectural structure in the German county Rhineland-Palatinate.
So the article should not be deleted!!
The article is no stub any more! Do not delete!
It reads:
"Until 1985, the Scharteberg transmitter used a 160 metre tall guyed mast. However this mast did not allow good reception in deep valleys, so in 1985 a new, 302 metre tall, guyed, steel framework mast was built"
Haps the aforesaid makes one wonder what is the difference between a guyed mast and a guyed, steel framework mast - could the unalikenesses betwixt the older and newer mast be set out?

Talk:Robert Lowe

message: already moved. --RegentsPark (talk) 02:53, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: So why isn't this titled Robert Lowe?

message: Lowe spoke against the Royal Titles Bill in 1876 at East Retford and implied that Queen Victoria had been responsible for the bill's introduction. As a result, when the Liberals returned to power in 1880, Victoria made it clear that she would not accept any ministry that included Lowe.[1] Nevertheless, he was raised to the peerage as Viscount Sherbrooke against the express wishes of Queen Victoria, but with the backing of William Gladstone (a peerage that would become extinct upon his death). 
: So, what's going on here?  I understand that the monarch acts on the advice of her Prime Minister, however, when it comes to honours she has more personal prerogative.  There are certain knighthoods that are within the monarch's personal gift, for example.  Peerages are not just simply announced and that's that; they have to be formally created by Letters Patent, signed by the Queen.  So, are we saying someone physically forced her to sign the document (... against the express wishes of Queen Victoria)?  Or are we saying she reluctantly agreed to Gladstone's recommendation that she approve the peerage and sign the Letters Patent?  That's not the same as saying it happened against her express wishes, which sounds like someone else did it without her knowledge or consent - which is an impossibility, because her signature would absolutely have been required.  --  Jack of Oz  ... speak! ...  04:39, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
