Talk:Curzon Street

message: Leconfield House on Curzon Street is a former MI5 HQ.  . They have also used Curzon Street House on the same road. Secretlondon 09:58, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: MI5

message: The street is thought to be named after George Howe, 3rd Viscount Howe however it is not until after his death that the title of Earl Howe was taken by someone with the last name Curzon. Before this time it was called Mayfair Row.
Perhaps that's the wrong George Howe.  George Howe, 3rd Viscount Howe was the 3rd Viscount Howe under the First Creation.  Whereas George Curzon-Howe, 2nd Earl Howe was the second Viscount Howe under the second creation.  I believe that this George Curzon-Howe was patron of Curzon Chapel.  See 
GEWJ 22:03, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think this is taking it in the wrong direction: perhaps the statement in the article is unclear.  The references suggest that the street was called Curzon Street in 1748, which is before anyone from the Howe family gained the name Curzon.  That is where the confusion lies: where exactly the road name changed and why. -- Roleplayer 00:16, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Name 

message: This section has some references that look pretty trivial to me. Any objection to my culling them?
OTOH there's a passing reference in Ian Fleming's 1961 novel Thunderball (ca. p.16) that implies this was a favourite location for "tarts" (presumably in the 1950s). Not mentioned in the article, if true this would be quite interesting for such an upscale Mayfair district. Anyone know anything reliable on this? --D Anthony Patriarche (talk) 11:19, 25 December 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Wenford Bridge Pottery

message: The notability of the subject is a bit questionable. By WP:N, notability of a topic means that it has been covered in independent reliable secondary sources. Some sources are given in the article. However, they seem to be self-published sources and hence are not undoubtably reliable. Some of them are also associated with a person mentioned in the article (Seth Cardew), so they are not independent. 
So it is not clear whether "Wenford Bridge Pottery" deserves its own article. In any case, it is not too long; so I propose to merge it into the article about Michael Cardew (who is undoubtably notable).

message: My family is from Putre and Arica where the practice is still common and is certainly not peruvian. It's done in easter islands, in sicily(known as Forni di terra cruda), in all of bolivia and the andes, and across chile with the name Curanto. We were andean before we were divided by all these borders.

For example; Several stones are necessary for a clambake and cannonballs are sometimes used?  - Maybe in 1830 cannonballs were used!  Stones help distribute heat evenly but are not necessary because you've dug a hole and are heating a volume of earth that bakes your seafood.

Similar language is in the Liberty engine page, which reads that the Liberty OHC valvetrain was somehow copied from the later Mercedes DIIIa.  If it was indeed copied or otherwise influenced the Liberty engine's valve train, please provide your source.  If the writer has simply noticed the similarity and made an assumption, the about quote needs to be removed as conjecture; likewise the similar text in the Liberty article. 2600:8805:8100:1C:433F:CE24:BCF7:D57C (talk) 11:47, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

This sort of redacting of another editor is definitely against our guidelines, so I am undoing it.
I'm sure Fryer is a very nice person and probably knows a lot about Egyptology. He describes himself here  as someone who has worked with computers for over a decade and whose interests include music (I play classical guitar, piano, harpsichord, and recorder with varying degrees of skill), Egyptology (especially the Ancient Egyptian language), gardening (when I have time), reading (science fiction and fantasy - when I don't need to be reading technical stuff).

Talk:Lipodystrophy

message: Hi, in the "Antiretroviral drugs" section, I would like to remove the statement "(mainly the protease inhibitors)" as this is too generic of a "warning".  Recent studies by the AIDS Clinical Trials Group (ACTG: http://www.aactg.org/ -- http://aactg.s-3.com/) [article: http://www.aidsmap.com/en/news/D412C57E-5683-415D-B807-04E69DE1AABF.asp] showed that regimens that contain efavirenz, though simple and generally well tolerated, actually appear to INCREASE risk of lipodystrophy, not decrease. Indeed, in the same study, a boosted protease inhibitor regimen (lopinavir/ritonavir; Kaletra) was shown to cause less lipo when partnered with any nucleoside combination.  As a result, I believe the field still contains way too many unknowns to make such a broad statement.  If anyone disagrees, or can provide specific citation for this statement then let me know.
