Talk:List of Sakura Wars characters

message: Right now, there are flag icons next to the place of origin for each character.  However, those are the national flags today, while the story was supposed to take place in the early 20th century.  At that time, the national flags of China and of Germany, at least, were not the same as the ones today.  Shouldn't one show the historic flags instead of the flags today?  In fact, I do not find showing the flags a good idea at all, as it is bound to spark all sorts of unnecessary questions regarding political and historical correctness.

message: to remove the following statements
In 2006, Bucheon SK abandoned their own fans and moved to Jeju without any fore notice and renamed themselves Jeju United FC. They became second immoral club after FC Seoul. It can be compared with the Milton Keynes Dons F.C.'s franchising case. Fans of Bucheon_FC are denying that this franchise is not the successor of Bucheon F.C.
it is the fact that SK betrayed the fans of Bucheon F.C. Wikipedia does not reserve the right to blame those who critize the move of SK to Jeju. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.76.179.12 (talk) 12:36, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Billy Smith (ice hockey)

message: Since not everyone knows the quirks (silly ones) of official statitsitcal scoring in hiockey.  I think it should be explained in an ENCYCLOPEDIA article that getting credit for scoring a goal is not the same as in football.  Hockey does not have an own goal stat thus Smith's "goal" should always be explained in general audiences that include non hockey types. Bona Fides 14:33, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Name 

message: The text in this article appears to be a direct copy of the school's own website in violation of WP:COPYVIO.
The infobox claims a founding date of 1604.  The categories claim "Educational institutions established in the 1600s" and "Educational institutions established in 1874".  The text (and the school) claim 1874 and 1874 for the constituent parts.  William Watkiss Lloyd (1813–1893) would appear to have been 61 when the school was founded.  In short, the dating is a mess needs sorting out.
For the last 5 years there has been a request for citations to support the article.  At the moment the only citation is the school website which gives the more modern dates. Martin of Sheffield (talk) 11:15, 13 February 2018 (UTC)

message: "a pioneer of coeducational schooling in the 1960s and International students in the 1980s". I think this is the wrong way around. When I was at the school (1966-1972) there was a flourishing International Centre, but no girls. A very small number of girls joined the sixth-form in the 1970s and early 1980s, including Emma Johnson (clarinetist). I don't think it became fully coed until the mid 1980s. I hardly think this counts as being a pioneer of coed schooling.--RichardVeryard 10:36, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

message: The difference between Deus Dat Incrementum and Dat Deus Incrementum seems highly implausible. Deus Dat... is usual for the Tonbridge motto, but Dat Deus... is carved in stone above the entrance to the science block (I remember it after 50 years). I suppose one could say that Dat Deus... might mean that God gives increase, but does not hire it out or sell it; but to suggest that God could be the recipient of increase (from what source?) is daft, even for an atheist. It comes from Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, Chapter 3 verse 6.
This section should merely quote the motto, and mention its common bond with Westminster and Marlborough. The Judd School is also in Tonbridge, and is a sister school, governed by the Skinners' Company, so the common motto is not really remarkable.

thread_title:  The earliest labyrinth 

message: Thus hyphened in some early editions of Shakespeare's plays. 
The Midsummer Night passage relates to a love-spat between Oberon, King of the fairies,and Titania, Queen. Sexual imagery is clear from words such as wanton, nine-men's morris (then played with upright pegs), and tred. The play was performed before (and to amuse and celebrate)the union between Queen Elizabeth and Robert Dudley. Oberon is in German 'bear', the Dudley crest.
'Queynte' or 'queinte' is a term used by Chaucer in the Miller's Tale (Canterbury Tales) to denote the female pudenda:
"Full prively he caught her by the queinte." And the medieval unicursal labyrinth was used by women seeking fertility, which walking its length early in the morning alone, was believed to promote.
There is little doubt that the 'quaint' in 'quaint-maze' was NOT an adjective, but describes a particular circular shaped maze resembling a queynte. Regardless that the term has been forgotten and has not made it to the Oxford English Dictionary.122.57.152.168 (talk) 22:41, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
