Talk:Churidar

message: An editor has been inserting an ambiguous image of a sculpture dating to the 5th century CE, and claiming that it shows a woman wearing a churidar.  The sculpture merely shows a woman wearing a leg bracelet.  The editor has moreover replaced a longstanding image in the article with this dubious one.  He has produced a "source" published by a non-standard publisher that does not constitute WP:RS.  I have removed the image, but I suspect the editor is looking to edit-war.

replies: text: Even if I grant you that, where are the "churis, or excess folds"  (Recall text from the article: "The excess length falls into folds and appears like a set of bangles resting on the ankle (hence 'churidar'; 'churi': bangle, 'dar': like).)  This page, after all, is about a particular type of leg garment, not any leg garment. Pictures in apparel-related articles are meant to unambiguously illustrate the apparel, which I'm afraid this low-res picture of a sculpture does not do.

message: The image on the page does not demonstrate the emotion of Anticipation in any way.

replies: text: @NintendoTTTEfan2005: I can't edit 10,000 US roadway articles to remove additional examples of falsely implied concurrencies. If other articles are wrong in practice, we don't improve Wikipedia by making this article also wrong in practice so that it is consistent. Instead, we improve Wikipedia by correcting the other articles to follow the best practice, which isn't to falsely imply a concurrency that does not exist. Now, the manpower to do a sweep to make such corrections may be lacking since most of the roads editors have moved off Wikipedia in the face of bigger issues.

replies: text: Ok, thanks for the info. I am pretty new to editing Wikipedia pages, so I am probably just getting unnecessarily frustrated. This might also have something to do with the fact that perhaps those junctions are with multiple major highways that aren't concurrent with one another and Wisconsin Highway 30 is definitely not a major highway (at least now it isn't).

Talk:Buchanan, Tennessee

message: I wanted to elaborate on my edit. The previous revision cited Tennesse Place Names by Larry Miller which claims, "At the time this locality was being settled—the first part of the 1840s—President James Buchanan held office. So residents applied his name to the hamlet." This is either very misleading or erroneous. Buchanan held presidential office from 1857-1861. He was a PA senator from 1835-45, and Secretary of State from 1845-49. It seems highly unlikely that, if indeed the town was incorporated in the 1840s, a comparatively minor political figure from another state would have a town in west Tennessee named after him.
My family is from Buchanan, TN. I've visited grave plots in town that date back to the early 1800s, and the name Buchanan is common (as is my sirname, Greene). Therefore it seems most likely that the town was named after the Buchanan family that resided there, not the President.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zakgreene (talk • contribs) 19:25, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

message: The structure(s) existed, but the only place the name appears in historical documents was in the Cumberland Compact. Settlers, land agents and politicians of the time called it by different names, including Bluff Fort, Bluff Station, French Lick Fort, Cumberland River Fort. Also, it wasn’t originally just one fortification, but a collection of individual “forts” or stations within a settlement area; the forts were widely separated each on it’s own land grant. The settlement was officially named Nashville in 1784. The article probably ought to be moved to a name as used, because “Nashborough” lacks historicity, even though it makes a nice precursor to Nashville. Sbalfour (talk) 14:47, 23 March 2021 (UTC)

message: Please correct.  This is a common error.  I do have a copy of a sketch of Col. John Donelson by a contemporary but I do not know how to add it to this page.  
If you don't believe me, contact The Hermitage historian. 
Col. John Donelson is my fifth great grandfather through two of his daughters and I have done extensive research.  I certainly would add more content to this.
He left a journal of the journey he led on flatboats from the Watauga settlement to Nashville which President Teddy Roosevelt highly praised.  
And his is the first signature on the very important Cumberland Conpact which the settlers signed when they formed what is now Nashville.  There is a large statue of Col. John Donelson and James Robertson on the Cumberland River in downtown Nashville.

message: They were VASTLY DIFFERENT ORGANIZATIONS. As a Crichton Alum I find this page infuriating. Crichton was a board run small Christian Liberal Arts College. Victory was a terrible consequence of association. The closing of Crichton occurred a few years after I had graduated; as a result of many changes I witnessed that took place over Crichton’s last years. The board had dissolved and all admissions staff were laid off. Then the building was acquired by an online entity and any students who wished to remain (or who were stuck close too close to graduation) were grandfathered into an entirely different FOR PROFIT doomed-to-fail-degree-machine of an institution. Most of my academic peers HATE the association made between these two entirely different organizations. And any faculty or student that could transfer elsewhere did so by the droves.

:The magazine was founded by Michael Goff in 1992 as Editor in Chief and President. He and first hire, Executive Editor Sarah Pettit built the largest circulation gay publication ever and for the first time attracted world-class writers and contributors and mainstream advertisers to fund it.
:A key ingredient in Out's success at attracting high brow advertisers who had never considered targeting the gay market before was that the magazine offered a safe environment in which no pornography or personal classifed advertisements were allowed. By removing this significant barrier, advertisers were able to utilize this new national print media vehicle to reach a marginalized audience and effectively showcase their products and services. In less than two years, Out surpassed The Advocate, the only other national gay magazine and one which had been in existence for 30 years, in circulation and scope of advertisers.
