Talk:Zübeyde Hanım

message: But this is a newspaper article. How can there be a copyright violation from a summary taken from it?
I googled a couple random sentences and they were exact quotes from the article.  It's fine to summarize, but do your best to put it in your own words.  A good idea is to combine a few different sources.  Trying rephrasing the info you already have, but mix in some other sources.

I'd really like to see an English statement of him confirming this! (Quite obviously he can communicate in English — his text at  is in English, too.) Lupo 10:49, 18 Aug 2004 (UTC)
replies: text:  You are welcome to write to him in English, I have written the URL for his contact info above. I have written to him in Turkish because it is the mother tongue of both of us and looking sincere works better than looking formal in Turkish culture. I told him that if we use this, other people will "freely" change and redistribute it. I didn't use mercilessly or even for commercial purposes, but in Turkish language there is no ambiguity for "freely", it basically means "without limitation". BTW, I am not sure calling this his text is fair, he is the editor, not the author, but he certainly knows English. ato 16:19, 18 Aug 2004 (UTC)

#Mustafa Kemal's reaction to her second marriage is not clear. In one sentence we read that he is distanced and   in the second sentence we read that Mustafa Kemal did not speak to her until her marriage ( the word over missing ?)
#There is also a problem of timeline. Turkish war of independence is given before Balkan wars. (War of independence 1919-1922 and Balkan wars 1912-13)

message: I wonder why this article is named Zübeyde Hanım. Her name is simply Zübeyde. 'Hanım' is in fact a Turkish term of address for a woman (like 'Lady' or 'Madam') and not part of her name.

message: :After graduating from college in 1968, and attending the Officers Candidate School of the US Marine Corps for a mere two and a half months, Foreman's radicalism began to take shape.
Unless I am mistaken, USMC Officer Candidate School is either one 10-week course or two 6-week courses over two summers.  Thus, Foreman's "two and a half months" would not be "mere" since that is apporoximately 10 weeks.  Perhaps he was in OCS for two and a half weeks? CrypticBacon 23:40, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Time in OCS 

message: I have long regarded this wikipedia page as unfairly skewed towards Foreman's notoriety born in the 1980s in his Earth First! collaborations. But my own familiarity with him began when he and John Davis spun off from the Earth First! publication and its leaders to create their own science-leaning collaborations with the science of conservation biology — and that collaboration deserves even more attention in this wikipedia entry. That new collaboration began with the launch of the journal Wild Earth. Now that Foreman is dead, there are objective obituaries to use for editing this wikipedia entry. Thus far, I have only edited the first para, for which I cited an Oct 2022 article in the Arizona Daily Star newspaper. I will continue to do more editing in the days ahead, as the current version skews toward his 1980s activism and ignores his strong collaboration with conservation biologists (and thus significant accomplishments) in the final 3 decades of his life.Cbarlow (talk) 17:45, 17 January 2023 (UTC)

The word יהודה does not mean "praise."  According to Genesis 29:35, Leah chose the name to resemble the Hebrew word for "thanks", not "praise", and the word isn't the same in any case—"thanks" is תודה (toda) or הודיה (hodaya), not יהודה.

:Cos we can mate, cos we can. Actually, considering the film is banned in several countries, it may be worthwhile for readers from those countries to be able to know what happens in the film, and perhaps why it was banned.
That is not a synopsis. That is the entire movie, and as such is completely inappropriate. Should be removed.

Talk:Tsuruga Castle

message: I recommend naming articles on castles by place rather than by name. Lots of castles have nicknames: Rijo, Karasujo etc. but they're more widely known in English by the name of the city. So, I think this should be merged into Aizu Wakamatsu Castle. Fg2 23:14, Aug 5, 2004 (UTC)
:I agree. It is known between historians that beautiful naming like this "castle of crane" makes many ambiguities. There are at least two other Tsuruga Castles in the Gifu prefecture and the Ōita prefecture. So the Japanese historians avoid it. Tsuruga Castle is the name for tourism.

Talk:Esperanto pronunciation

message: Orthographic <kz>, as in ekzemple, is the one place where Esperanto orthography is not phonemic. This is because most people find it difficult to change voicing in the middle of a consonant cluster. Russian <футбол> "futbol" is [fudbol], for example, and <водка> "vodka" is [votka]. Many Esperantists try to pronounce <kz> as [kz], but in practice it usually ends up being a fully voiced [gz]. 
(The other solution, a fully voiceless [ks], would cause confusion because the sequence /ks/ is already highly frequent. In fact, it was precisely in order to avoid homographs with <ks> in prefixed and compounded words that Zamenhof started using <kz>. Evidently he decided that spelling this as <gz> would be too alien to people used to seeing these words with <x> or <ks> in their native languages, even if they pronounced them [gz] as the Spaniards do.) 
Anyway, <kz> is one of those irregular details that throws people first starting out on the language (I know it puzzled me), and I think should be included in the chart. --kwami 23:07, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: Hmm. The egzismo article states that [kz] in non-compounds isn't habitial for non-Slavs, implying that it is habital for Slavs. However, Russian (and if I remember correctly, Polish and Czech) have complete regressive voicing assimilation of obstruant clusters even in polymorphemic words. [I just changed my examples above.] I can only think that Zamenhof expected <kz> to be pronounced [gz]! --kwami 00:20, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

text: Yes, Polish is the same. <jakże> "how" is pronounced [jagʒe]. There are other bits of Polish phonology that show through in Esperanto, such as -ĉj- (Polish <ć>). --kwami 11:48, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
