thread_title:  Springbok? 

message: The article now makes no mention of lions and tigers springbok, but reads "Venda is divided into small areas, such as Mukhase, where pure water can be found running off the mountain." What does this mean? What are these small areas? Political divisions? Geographical divides? Caves? And why is Mukhase the most prominent. This sentence should have some context, or be removed, it's not helpful as it stands now. Greenman (talk) 22:32, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

The Eastern Roman Empire was reconquering provinces which were once on its domain, isn't that a reconquest? Or are you quoting someone, because it's not necessary there.

Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Common outcomes

message: I'd like to add something about when and whether being named after helps with notability. People (things) that have streets named after them, species named after them, topographical landmarks, that are patrons of schools or other institutions... do we have any common outcomes here?

replies: text: I'm not aware of any. I would presume that when a street is named after someone, there would be some coverage even if hard to find, but I would not take the street name itself as proof of notability, just a sign that someone needs to try harder with local/regional sources.

Talk:Robert Walpole

message: Under the section where it talks about the ascension of George I to the throne, it says that he was Queen Anne's "distant cousin."  While it's true that, without the Act of Settlement, his place in the line to the throne would have been distant, that's only because of the relatively large number of children people at the time had.  They were actually just 2nd Cousins, because of their mutual descent from James I.  Thoughts on changing it? OrthodoxLinguist (talk) 19:43, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Distant cousin language 

message: When viewing on mobile, the first blockquote (i.e. 'Speck says that Walpole's uninterrupted run of 20 years as Prime Minister "is rightly regarded..."') is split by the infobox. This is undesirable/confusing, as it effectively breaks the article mid-sentence. Is there a technical solution to this and, if not, perhaps the article can be reworded so as to avoid such an awkward break?
