Talk:Lviv Metro

message: There are dozens of proposals, but is it necessary to include all of them. 2020 is a long way away, considering that construction has not even began yet, nor is there even a proper plan. In any case it is not even official. Do you mind if I afd it?--Kuban Cossack 19:54, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It is official (the Lviv city council approved it), but do as you decide. I am not very experienced. --Seregelly  talk  19:58, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: What exactly did they approve? At most it would be geological surveys, you can't begin to build or plan a metro without those and if they do take place this is something that has to be officially approved on state level. Only then can a Metro enter into a stage of "planning" which would mean that it probably will be built. Considering that Lviv is under a million population I heavily doubt that it would be even by 2030. In any case I know nothing of any geological surveys, so really this is just a empty article, as there is really nothing to write about... No offense, but there are dozens of cities on the ex-USSR that "officially" claim to have a Metro being developed with no work being carried out. --Kuban Cossack 20:08, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Naoyuki Itō

message: I'd just like to point out that this person' first name is quite hard to decypher, but it's been confirmed (in furigana) in at least one official publication -- the Saint Seiya Hades databook, released about 10 years ago.
In this, the official spelling is 'Naozumi', not 'Takamichi'.
Confirmed here (in French): http://ency.cyna.fr/staff-13.html
86.70.12.243 (talk) 13:42, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll add Naozumi as an alias. Common name may still prevail here. If Ito has a website / blog where he romanizes his name or there's an interview that pronounces his name as such then this can be revisited.  At this point the article barely survived a PROD and the equivalent Japanese wikipedia article has yet to exist. The French site is an encyclopedia fan website so you would need to dig up the furigana from the databook. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:07, 7 October 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Japanese websites that provide a pronunciation guide use -yuki though. I think -zumi would be the reading if the final character were 住 rather than 往, but if you look at the opening credits of Kanon for example you can clearly see that it's the latter. I think someone involved in the compilation of the French databook might have consulted a source with a typo or misprint of some sort, or might have misread the character.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.61.180.106 (talk) 16:16, 4 October 2021 (UTC)

message: Firstly I don't think the standard version of the name should be the Sanskrit spelling. The Middle-Indic spelling Suddhodana is more historically appropriate. Secondly the word odana is defined by the PTS dictionary as "boiled (milk)rice, gruel." In other words odana does not refer to "growing rice" as the article claims, but to cooked rice.

Talk:Freeway motorcycling restrictions in East Asia

message: I have deleted the territory from this article, for two reasons.
Firstly, there is no specific restriction on motorcycles with regard to their use on expressways, although a relevant clause does exist, preventing 'any vehicle with an engine capacity lower than 125cc' from entering expressways.
Secondly, the clause mentioned above is by no means unique to the territory, since it is based on a similar clause in the Highway Code also current in the Irish Rules of the Road, and the slightly higher cited figure on engine capacity is, in my opinion, more appropriately attributed to the much later date of introduction of the Expressways Regulations, which is 1992, rather than to an attempt to take account of any specifically local circumstances.

Talk:Rabbi Tarfon

message: According to the Jewish Encyclopedia, Tarfon swore that he would burn any book that came into his possession that was written by a Christian scribe, even if the word "God" occurred in it (see Shab. 116a).[3]
However, some Jewish commentators explain that Shabbath 116a ruled on the question of what was expected of a Jew on the Sabbath in respect of putting out a fire. A Jew may neither put such a fire out, unless life is in danger, nor save any item from such a fire with the exception of any Torah scrolls written by hand on parchment. (Other Jewish books, for example literature, law and other religious books, would be left to the fire on the Sabbath.)
: Shabbath indeed starts by talking about what to save from the fire. But his statement was general, that he would burn any book that was written by a Christian including the names of God [that hypothetically, he would light them on fire during the week, so he would certainly let them burn], and I do not know of any Jewish commentator who says otherwise.  Who are these some? 206.181.86.98 (talk) 19:29, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Dubious

message: Wikipedia normally does not use titles such as Dr., Sir, etc. Most articles about rabbis are listed without "rabbi". So for consistencies sake, should this article be reverted back to Tarfon? I would say yes unless he is overwhelmingly called "Rabbi Tarfon", instead of "Tarfon".

# This guy appears to be very famous.  If you give google maps "Kadita, Israel" the map brought up is for the area, with an "A" balloon on the "Rabi [sic] Tarfon Tomb."

Category talk:English antiquarians

message: The correct term for a person who studies antiquities is an 'Antiquary', plural 'Antiquaries', not 'Antiquarian/s'. 'Antiquarian' is normally an adjective describing the activities of an antiquary, such as 'an antiquarian pursuit', 'of antiquarian interest', etc. Although 'antiquarian' used as a substantive has precedents as early as 1610, it is that unusual English usage, an adjectival absolute (which is to say 'an antiquarian [person]' the 'person' being understood). It would be similar if one were to refer to a Bishop as 'an Episcopal'. 'Antiquary' (with spoken emphasis on the first syllable, Ant-iquary) is the actual substantive or noun form for the person, derived from the word 'antiquity'. See Shorter Oxford English Dictionary corrected 1964 edition, page 77. I therefore propose that this category should be redirected to 'English antiquaries'.
