Talk:MacBride Principles

message: To my knowledge, the MacBride Principles have not been approved by neither the Irish Government not the Catholic Bishops' Conference in the US. A few Irish-American Bishops may have publicly supported them, but certainly no Catholic bishop in Ireland. Their main supporter has always been Fr. Sean McManus of the Irish National Caucus.
There were serveral versions of the MacBride Principles, as the first one(s) were to a certain extent out of touch with the harsh realities in NI. Thus, some of the less realistic principles were dropped in the process.
I am sorry to say that my impression of the article is that it seems to have quite a strong Irish-American lobby tendency, which does not have a positive influence on its neutral appearance.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Markus Büchele (talk • contribs) 21:38, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Les goddams

message: I removed this part. Some say that "some french" use it as a derogatory for brittish. They don't. None does. I'm french, i've been living in France for 32 years, I should know. And I never even once heard it. 100% urban legend.
I've hear it many people say it, just like how Australians call British 'Poms'. It's probably mainly use in sporting events when a country verse England. I know in cricket people chant "Goddam English" Phu2734 10:30, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Count Dracula (fictional character)

message: I don't know why this much needed page has been slated for a merger as soon as it was created. Count Dracula the fictional character is a different entity to Dracula the novel. The latter is not a biography of Dracula but rather a work of fiction in which Dracula (along with Van Helsing, Harker Lucy Westenra etc - all who have seperate wikipeda articles) appears as a character: somewhat infrequently at that...Similarly Prince Hamlet the character is different from Hamlet the play. Isn't this obvious??? Colin4C 12:21, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Wall Around a Star

message: Currently, this article seems to get most if not all its information from a single, apparently non-reliable source, the Internet Book List. This includes a large quote which makes up most of the article, which probably runs afoul of fair-use conditions, especially since it's also most of the non-infrastructural part of the IBL page. (A triple offense if the "summary" is taken verbatim from the back cover of the book itself, which was implied by the earlier version of this article, but which I couldn't readily verify.) I've tagged it to call some attention to it, but anyone interested in this article should realize that it's vulnerable to deletion due to the excessive quoting. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 12:44, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

This was the version of his name he used professionally--on all his credits, books, etc.  As far as I can determine, he did not use "Herbert Franklin Solow" professionally.

Talk:Robert Stewart, 1st Marquess of Londonderry

message: (1) "It's not exceptional in the slightest [for Presbyterians to rise in the ranks of the ANglican Ascendancy] and Robert Stewart was not the only Scottish protestant to hold office in Ireland". While he may not have been the only Dissenter to hold public office, Stewart's rise through the titled ranks of the Anglican aristocracy was exceptional for a Presbyterian which is why, as noted, he and his son quietly converted to the Church of Ireland. 
(2) "as a protestant and planter, British colonist, he had rights which Catholics didn't have, the Penal laws were very soft on Protestant Presbyterians." Yes, of course, he had rights Catholics did not have, even after the Catholic Relief Act of 1793 (and as the article notes, Londonderry did not press for reform benefiting lower orders of Protestants, let alone for full rights for Catholics). While this biographic lead may not be the palce to discuss it, the Penal Laws with their sacremantal tests were comparatively "soft" on Presbyterians although hard enough to contribute to the grievances (including refusal to recognise the validity of Presbyterian marriages and baptisms, and exclusion from most public offices) that encouraged mass emigration to the American colonies and, even after Penal-Law endorcement eased or fell away, support for the United Irish cause.

replies: text: according to "Confucius analects: with selections from traditional commentaries" by Edward Gilman Slingerland (2003, ISBN: 0872206351, 9780872206359), the traditional chronology is 2357-2257. Also take into consideration that this is a single, seemingly legendary figure with no Archeological evidences or evident cosmological event during their time which can give any clue on them. So no accurate chronology or any chronology can be done seriously, it's all speculations, or fuzzy calculations according to classic resources which were created hundred of years after the actual time discussed.

In the reign of Emperor Yao (2357-2261 B.C.) -- we return to Dr. Ping-Hua Lee -- 'the making of canals, connecting the ditches in the fields with the rivers, and the deepening of the rivers for the purposes of drainage, inaugurated the immense systems of canals found in present-day China.'"

message: thanks for help.  When Lesion and I did this, we had a discussion about S/S.  The problem was that there are so many causes for tooth ache (and the S/S so specific to each) we decided to include them with each cause.  At first we would list the causes, then a seperate section for S/S but it became too disjointed.  OK to leave that way, or does it need to be reformatted prior to FA submission?

message: How about including - as 'trivia'? - the fact that Huéscar declared war on Denmark in 1808/1809 because Denmark supported Napoleon.

Ariana Disambig has the most complete info, and a lot of the listed things found on Ariana (name) and at Arianna, however, Ariana (name) also lists some of the Ariannas and the page at Arianna has a lot more entries than found on either Ariana page.

It is amazing that this so-called encylopedic article contains nothing about his second marriage or children including the rake and good-for-nothing Philip (whose own Wikipedia entry mentions that his father was the Marquess of Wharton).  
I really wish that you had put in a template for Unreferenced (as in asking for citations), or asked for style corrections (clarifications on whatever is unclear), rather than deleting everything I added.
