Talk:Hugh Montgomery, 1st Viscount Montgomery

message: As Montgomery of Alamein came from a long-established Ulster family, it would be interesting to know if there is any connection. When he became famous, it was claimed that he could trace his descent back to a French nobleman called Montgomery who came over with William the Conqueror. Was Hugh Montgomery descended from that person? Valetude (talk) 12:59, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Bogd Khan Mountain

message: The 8th Jebtsundamba Khutugtu became Bogd Khan only in 1911 (before that time, the title Bogd Khan seems to have referred to the emperor in Beijing). However, at least the name Khan Uul already appears before 1911: the chuulgan of Tusheet Khan aimag was called Khan Uulyn chuulgan, and also the Russian geographer Pevtsov calls it Khan Uul in the report of his 1879 journey across Mongolia (according to the GDR translation, anyway). So while this doesn't really rule out that the Bogd in Bogd Khan Uul is really from an association with the Bogd Khan, it makes this association at least unobvious enough to not accept it without further proof. On a sidenote, the mountain really was named after an existing person in the 1950s. Guess after whom? Yaan (talk) 12:06, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Since, as your examples show, the "Bogd" in "Bogd Khan Uul" only appears after 1911, I still think it's more than obvious. The old "King Mountain" was then explicitly dedicated to a specific king. --Latebird (talk) 16:22, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

message: WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.
As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals.  So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely,      — The Transhumanist    07:51, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Callistemon pallidus

message: Having read this page whilst seeking correct identification for this plant, I made further checks and WCSP (World Checklist for Selected Plants) confirm that the accepted name is still C.pallidus. M.pallida is still listed as a Synonym. The confirmation of this is the reference: 
Govaerts, R., Sobral, N., Ashton, P., Barrie, F., Holst, B.K., Landrum, L.L., Matsumoto, K., Fernanda Mazine, F., Nic Lughadha, E., Proença, C. & al. (2008). World Checklist of Myrtaceae: 1-455. Kew Publishing, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.
Additionally to that, I checked with the APG website: Stevens, P. F. (2001 onwards). Angiosperm Phylogeny Website. Version 12, July 2012 [and more or less continuously updated since]. and whilst they were not specific, they did not mention any significant changes to Callistemon and Melaleuca but they did cite another article by Edwards et al Edwards, R. D. [et al. 2010], Craven, L. A., Crisp, M. D., & Cook, L. G. 2010. Melaleuca revisited: cpDNA and morphological data confirm that Melaleuca L. is not monophyletic. Taxon 59: 744-754 which as the title suggests that there may need to be changes to this taxon. Whilst I confess I have not read the article in question, the original reviser stated that the 2006 paper by Craven proposes a change only. Also, having read Plantdrew's revision note, where he confesses that most sources still place it in Callistemon, I think that is sufficient to confirm that the revision be undone.

I just added a little note to the Union section, referring to Australia also being in relative proximity to the HRL, along with Japan. The Torres Strait is 150km or so at its narrowest extent, and the islands in the Strait are Australian territory, too - which would put Union member Australia close to HRL members Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. --Nerroth (talk) 23:45, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Minor corrections 

message: There appears to be dissent about the dates of manufacture and first registration of the blue Vauxhall Cresta estate PA pictured (at 13 March 2015) on this entry.   For the record, here's what the tax office thinks:
:Vehicle make VAUXHALL
:Date of first registration 22 May 1962
:Year of manufacture 1962
:Cylinder capacity (cc) 2651cc 
You can check these data for yourself at 
The UK tax office is not infallible, especially in respect of older cars and especially if (as sometimes happens with older Vauxhalls) the cars were first registered in Australia and then imported to the UK thirty years later after the originally  British registered ones had undergone a sustained encounter with the British climate and come second.   
As far as engine size and year of manufacture are concerned, there are times when the tax office will simply enter the information as declared to him by the owner.   But in this case, and in the absence of powerful contrary evidence, I think we may take it that the car was both (1) manufactured and (2) first registered in 1962.   On the overwhelming balance of the available evidence.

Talk:Vauxhall Carlton

message: My eye was caught by the opening statement of this entry, that the car was produced by Vauxhall in the United Kingdom.   It was certainly sold by Vauxhall, but does anyone know whether or not it was actually assembled in Luton (or even with the smaller cars at Ellesmere Port...)?   I remember the Carlton sort of crept onto the UK market place without fanfare, rather as the very fist Cavaliers had done a few years earlier, and with the Cavalier this reflected the fact that all the first Cavaliers were assembled in GM's (relatively small) Antwerp plant.   I don't know whether (or not) something similar happened with the Carlton.   Unlike the Cavalier, the Carlton never really got to sell in large numbers, so in economic terms it would maybe have made more sense simply to run a few batches of right hand drive Rekords down the Ruesselsheim line with the Vauxhall nose panels and badges from time to time.   This is speculation, but if my speculation is correct, then we presumably should write that the Carlton was 'sold by Vauxhall in the UK' rather than that it was produced by Vauxhall in the UK.   Or?    Regards  Charles01 (talk) 19:42, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It's one of those things where, since it's in doubt and the existing statement is unreferenced, we should immediately change it. "Sold" is acceptable without a reference because it's common sense — anyone interested in the field knows it to be true.

Talk:The Girl in a Swing (novel)

message: Further to the above, it may be of interest that the first printing was actually withdrawn before the original official publication date of the book in the UK which was, according to the usual industry practice of the time, embargoed - that is, no copies were meant to be sold to the public before the specified date, a matter of routine administration and contractual obligation between publisher and bookseller.
As also was the usual practice, copies had been sent out to wholesalers and booksellers up to several weeks before the publication date so that the book could be advertised in a maximally effective co-ordinated manner while still being displayed and sold from the outset of publication day.
To my recollection, the urgent request from the publisher to booksellers to return all copies came only a few days (less that a week) before the publication date. Strictly, none should have reached the public, but likely a few had already been sold, and of course a number of review copies, perhaps numbering in the low hundreds, would also have been sent out.
I'm not sure if any of this might usefully be added to the article. I can't suggest any independent references (unless there are contemporary mentions of it in the industry's main periodical, The Bookseller) - I know of it because I was myself a bookseller at the time. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 90.197.66.175 (talk) 13:21, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
