Talk:Come, Tell Me How You Live

message: "The book then gives the impression that only one season was exclusively conducted at Chagar Bazar whereas the Mallowans were there for two years (1935–36). The narrative then further complicates matters by stating that other members joined these first expeditions such as Colonel Burn (referred to as "the Colonel" in the book) and Louis Osman (called "Bumps" after his own description of the Tells). In reality these two members and others joined the expedition in the spring of 1937 when the team extended their efforts to excavating not just at Chagar Bazar but also Tell Brak.[10] The chronology then reverts to being correct when the Mallowans finish at these sites and move for a short period of time to the Balikh Valley in 1938. In 1939 the international situation was deemed to be too dangerous to continue and the Mallowans did not recommence their archaeological work until 1947 with another surveying expedition, this time returning to Iraq."
This is both untrue and unfair.  Mallowan makes it crystal clear that the digs at Chagar Bazar took several seasons over a two year period.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by MacDavan (talk • contribs) 21:04, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Dutch Harness Horse

message: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124640811360577075.html seems to imply that the Amish particularly prize this breed. --Gwern  (contribs) 02:04 1 August 2009 (GMT)
:From the context of the article, it appears that it's more a modern prestige thing amongst those Amish folks who have both moved to Florida and who appear to be losing touch with their roots.  The Standardbred is the more common harness animal for the Amish.  The DHH as used in America is not a practical working horse, certainly NOT "plain".  Interesting article, though.

Talk:Bow Street, Ceredigion

message: I don't know enough about this subject to know who's "right" in the recent content dispute that's been taking place on this page. However, there are two policies that need to be considered - namely No original research and Verifiability. Whilst User:Weblog00/91.84.205.45 may have done some work in the archives at the National Library of Wales, I would consider this to be original research, unless the documents have been published, either in a book or online (including the NLW's own website if they have been published there). Having said that, a certain amount of local knowledge can be helpful in an article like this, provided the information is not contested.
To this end, I would request all parties to discuss their differences and opinions on this page, rather than keep reverting. Hopefully this will bring about a consensus of opinions. I do not want to have to protect this article, but if the dispute goes on without discussion, I may have to consider this (and will no doubt protect The Wrong Version). —  Tivedshambo  (t/c) 22:32, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Original research 

message: Dear Weblog00/91.84.205.45
Any constructive comments that enhance this article would be most appreciated, and you are indeed making some interesting points about the history of the area.  But it would be much better if you could qualify these with verifiable references to manuscript or published sources.  If you are aware of the existence of 15th century maps of the area, then this would be extremely significant, though I cannot see why these would be at the RCAHMS in Edinburgh (do you actually mean the RCAHMW?).  If you have reference numbers for items please quote them, rather than simply indicating the possibility of material being at a particular institution.
As to Rhyd-y-castell and Bryn-y-castell - much of the material used by Iwan Wmffre for his work on Cardiganshire place-names is held at the National Library of Wales; including Gogerddan Map 232 of 1790 which has Rhyd-y-castell marked but does not show any buildings where Bryn-y-castell is today.  The rent rolls for the Manor of Geneu’r Glyn, also at the National Library of Wales in the Goderddan Estate Papers, list “Rhyd y castell” in the 1750s, but by the 1780s have “Bryn Castell”.  All these records may be easily accessed at the National Library, together with all three volumes of Iwan Wmffre's The Place-Names of Cardiganshire
Your comments on Cwmsymlog are interesting, but might actually be better placed under an article for that village.  For your information Iwan Wmffre has this to say on the name - "The name Cwmsymlog may be derived from a variant of the local mwswm 'moss' (earliest form mwsswng 1546 [GPC s.v. mwswm]) with an epithetic [-l] (perhaps derived in emulation of the nW. mwsogl 'moss')." (ref. = The Place-Names of Cardiganshire, Vol. III, pp. 1077-1078 (BRA British Series 379 (III), 2004, ).  He at least would therefore appear to believe it to be a wholly Welsh place-name.

Talk:SPECMAP

message: Could someone clarify exactly what this article is about?  I've been trying to re-categorize it for a while - it was originally in the root of the astronomy category, but that doesn't seem like the best place for it.  From the limited results provided by google, it seems to maybe be related to ice cores and atmospheric oxygen abundances, in which case it probably belongs in either Earth sciences or atmospheric sciences, but I'm not an expert in that area.  For now, I've removed it from the astronomy category until it can be properly categorized.  Cosmo0 (talk) 23:25, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Smack (ship)

message: Was this type probably developed out of the Dutch smak ships? They were popular cargo vessels in Belgium and the Netherlands from the 16th century on and were later introduced in Germany. The smaks were however two-masted from the beginning with a yardarms main rigg. At least the names are strikingly similar though. De728631 (talk) 23:05, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

message: The article doesn't tell us what the criteria are or a smack, or what the difference is between them and other similar boats, or what the main boat classifications are.

message: I would take minor issue with the statement, "Although Dolciani is not well known by the general public..." I would suggest that she is actually better known than that. Several generations of high school students will recognize the name almost immediately, having learned their primary algebra from her books, including Modern Algebra: Structure and Method, which was a standard text within many school boards during the 1960s and 1970s.

This seems surprising considering that bever is the direct dutch word for beaver, the animal (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Proto-Germanic/bebruz). The similarly named dutch settlement of Beverwijck that later became Albany, New York (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beverwijck) was named after the beaver fur trade of the time. 2604:6000:1109:204A:A4A3:8D4E:7227:33F5 (talk) 00:02, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
Talk:Linda Keen

message: A proposal to delete this article as "not notable" has been added today by user 198.103.223.51.
Since many of this user's previous edits concern Canada, I suspect that it is not coincidental that this notice has been posted on the same day as the highly controversial (in Canada) dismissal of ANOTHER Linda Keen as head of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission following last month's radioisotope shortage (see http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2008/01/16/keen-firing.html). If so, the proposal is in effect to delete the mathematician Linda Keen merely because another Linda Keen has suddenly become notable.
This is not the way to deal with the problem. If two Linda Keens are notable, then there should be two different Wikipedia articles. The existing article should be renamed (or "moved to" in Wikispeak) "Linda Keen (mathematician)", and a new article can be created with a name such as "Linda Keen (Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission)" or "Linda Keen (nuclear energy administrator)". In addition, we will need a "disambiguation page" named just "Linda Keen" with links to the two others, so that readers who type in "Linda Keen" are presented with the choice.

Talk:Nerses Balients

message: I've removed the following content :
:However, Edouard Dulaurier actually only mentions that Nerses may have exagerated Hetoum's accomplishments somewhat, specifically disputing that although Ghazan sent 15,000 men as far as Gaza Hetoum probably did not go farther to Cairo, but does not challenge the account of the Mongol's capture of Jerusalem and Hetoum's visit to the Holy City for 15 days afterwards.Receuil des Historiens des Croisades, Historiens Armeniens I, Chronique du Royaume de Petite Armenie, p. 659-660 Note 1, p.659:"The account of the battle of Homs, in which Ghazan routs the Egyptians, on December 23, 1299, can be compared with that of Hayton, De Tartare, cap. XLII, and the narration of M. d'Ohsson, Hist. des Mongols, liv. VI, Chap. vi, t. IV, p.233-240. It is obvious that Nerses Balients added here a few fantastic details, devised to enhance the role played by the king of Armenia Hetoum II, as an auxiliary of the Tartars. We can very certainly put in doubt the pursuing of the Egyptians by this prince, after the battle, as far as the place named Doli by the compiler, which he located near Cairo. Indeed, the Mongol general who had been dispatched with a body of 15,000 men to pursue Sultan Nacer, did not go farther than Gaza, and stopped at the desert limit between Syria and Egypt". End of the note.
I think its important if articles are to have a neutral point of view, that we avoid editorialising. Discussing what people don't say inevitably leads to the writer's interests and emphasis coming through and is pretty close to WP:OR. If a third party has discussed the fact that these things are not challenged, I would support referencing that but find it being raised by our article to cross the line from reporting to analysis.

replies: text: Thanks WJBscribe for the comment. Of course, mentionning and quoting the works of an historian (who is otherwise extensively referenced by modern scholars on this very subject) is not OR in itself, and does have informational value.
