Talk:Diffusion (anthropology)

message: It seems that "diffusion" in anthropology may mean either "trans-cultural diffusion" (TCD) or "diffusion of innovations" (DoI), usually within a single culture. Someone had edited the body of the article to include DoI, but the head parag still mentioned only TCD.  I have fixed the head parag to mention both senses. However, since DoI has its own article, I also reduced all the DoI material to a single parag in the head section, with a link to said article. All the best, Jorge Stolfi 01:51, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

replies: text:  Guys, maybe you should study more before making judgements. The poisoned were not "his people that he disagrees with" but traitors collaborating with the occupants. It was during WWII, and if it would be possible, they would be imprisoned and/or executed (as happened to many after the war). As for the "murder" (now obviously removed), I agree that "execution" fits the encyclopaedia and this case better, however the trial was unjust, so the outcome was wrongful execution, which some people tend to simply call "murder" ... Of course, under the war circumstances the trial would lead to execution anyways, there was enough good evidence, but the conviction was based on wrong accusations - things he couldn't have done as he had been imprisoned already etc. - so it was miscarriage of justice = so called murder. --213.175.37.10 (talk) 13:22, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: I amended the dates to include 1858. The source, Redressing the Balance, says info on her is 'sketchy' and includes both dates. I didn't look very deeply, but it seems other sources merely reiterate the 1855 birth date without referring to the uncertainty. Of course, a source which says one or the other is wrong would resolve this. cygnis insignis 11:39, 23 February 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: In Agnes Repplier: Lady of Letters by George Stewart Stokes (who interviewed Repplier), "On November 4, 1851, Mrs. Repplier gave birth to her first child, Mary. ... Four years later, on April 1, 1855, a second daughter was born, duly christened "Agnes" ... Four more years went by, and Mrs. Repplier bore another child. This time it was a boy." Also, "the role of rebel was a dangerous one in a convent school in the late 1860's, especially when one was only fourteen. And so it happened that in July 1869, ... Agnes was dismissed." Agnes and Elizabeth Robins Pennell were best friends, both attending the Convent of the Sacred Heart in Torresdale, PA. Pennell was also born in 1855. Also, "A few months more than sixteen, Agnes Repplier set out on her own." This was ca. 1872. Londonjackbooks (talk) 20:03, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

text: Further, census records for 1870, 1880, 1910, 1940 all show ca. 1855/56 estimates based on age at time of census. One census record (1920) seems to be in err, and may be a source of confusion. It states that older sister Mary was then 66, Agnes 62, and younger brother Louis 68 at the time (in that order). Two passport applications list 1855 as birth year, as does her death certificate (aged 95 at death in 1950) and entry in St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church records for the family vault (vault no. 7; aged 95 at death on 15 Dec 1950).

Talk:Department of Health and Social Security

message: The Department of Hate and Social Sickness (DHSS) was set up as a direct response to the Department of Health and Social Security (DHSS). It involved more than forty artists in all and lasted for a period of three years. Installations and performances took place throughout London and the group was included in a BBC film called "The London Underground". The group was set up as a direct response to Thatcher's attack on the unemployed and had a large following in East London. It influenced several other art collectives. Why should alternative culture be removed? Isn' this a kind of fascism. I believe some mention of the DHSS should be included in this section

Talk:Ivo Herenčić

message: The final part of the first paragraph of the World War II section is a bit unclear. Presently it reads:
According to Tomasevich (War and Revolution in Yugoslavia, 1941-1945, Occupation and Collaboration, p. 59) Ustaše travelled by train from Pistoia to Trieste and there were provided buses before proceeding via Sušak to Karlovac. They reached Yugoslav border at Sušak at 2.10am on April 13. On April 14, Filippo Anfuso (sent by Mussolini personally) flew to Zagreb and then proceeded to Karlovac where he stopped Ustaše from moving further towards Zagreb before Pavelić confirmed he would cede territory to Italy. They reached Zagreb in early morning of 15 April.
While the article does not say that Ustaše travelled from Karlovac to Zagreb on 12 April, the passage appears to imply this. Since the article is currently a GAN, I do not wish to edit it in order to avoid appearance of instability, but maybe the nominator  or a future GA reviewer might wish to address this potential for confusion.--Tomobe03 (talk) 16:46, 4 July 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Marko Orešković

message: This was originally added in 2005 by  basically unreferenced, and expanded by me using info from  on sr:wiki ():
: In late 1980s the official version of his death was challenged by Serb nationalists. Instead, it was attributed to his alleged opposition to official Party policy.
: General Gojko Polovina, commander of the VI Lika Division who fought together with Orešković, gave this alternate description in the magazine "Student", and named two partisans who allegedly killed Orešković in the village of Očijevo. The same Polovina is, by his own testimony, known to have commanded partisan units that acted more like the Chetniks than like the Partisans, given that they were composed of Serbs only and committed reprisals against Croatian population. It is unclear how Polovina could amend the description of Orešković's death without implicating himself, given that it was actually he who wasn't acting in compliance with the official Party policy.

Prema jednoj nepisanoj tradiciji došli su već sa Frankopanima iz Italije. No to nije dokazano." 
Full quote form page 265.:
"Moj djed Ljudevit Kvaternik rođen je u Praputnjaku kraj Meje (kotar Bakar-Sušak). Tamo je i naša obiteljska kuća ("Stammhaus"), koja je još 1942. postojala. Njegova žena, moja baka s očeve strane, Marija Frank, podrijetlom je katolička Njemica iz Bavarske. Ova obitelj Frank nema ništa zajedničkog s onom sa strane moje majke. Koliko sam mogao do sada ustanoviti, Frankovi sa strane moga oca potiču tamo negdje iz okolice Regensburga. Moja baka rođena je u Gorskom Kotaru, njezin otac, a moj pradjed, došao je iz Njemačke kao činovnik grofova Thurn i Taxis. Odakle potječu Kvaternici nije ustanovljeno. Prema jednoj nepisanoj tradiciji došli su već sa Frankopanima iz Italije. No to nije dokazano. U Gorskom Kotaru i Primorju to je ime dosta rašireno. Iz braka moga djeda Luje sa Marijom Frank potiču ova djeca: Slavko (moj otac) rodjen 25. 8. 1878. u Komorskim Moravicama, Petar Milutin ([1.X. 1882.], ubijen u Crikvenici 10. IV.1941.), Ljubo, živi u Bavarskoj, i Zlata (umrla u Zagrebu 1957.)." 
Slavko Kvaternik's father was Ljudevit Kvaternik. Ljudevit's wife was Marija Frank and she was of German descent (and had no relation to Olga Frank who was Slavko's wife, Josip Frank's daughter and Dido Kvaternik's mother).
