Talk:Eucalyptus tereticornis

message: In this edit, "Smith gave it the specific epithet tereticornis from the Latin teretus ("terete", meaning circular in transverse cross-section) and cornu ("horn"), in reference to the horn-shaped bud cap." was replaced by "The specific epithet (tereticornis) is from the Latin words teres (becoming tereti- in the combined form) meaning "terete" and cornus meaning "horn", in reference to the horn-shaped operculum."
In the latter case, the text is sourced by p. 322 of Boland's et al. Forest Trees of Australia (2006). The source however writes: "Latin teretus (terete, circular in transverse cross-section, tapering or narrowly conical), cornu (horn), in reference to the opercula". This edit does seem to misrepresent the source. 
However, the source is also mistaken. The original description of Smith in A Specimen of the Botany of New Holland (1893-1895, p. 41) is: "E. tereticornis, operculo conico tereti laevissimo calyce triplo longiori, umbellis lateralibus solitariis. Lid conical, round, very smooth, thrice as long as the calyx. Umbels lateral, solitary." Tereti is here the ablative case of the nominative case teres and not of the suggested form teretus. We can not refer to Boland et al. (2006) and quote something else (as that would violate Wikipedia:Verifiability "The cited source must clearly support the material as presented in the article.") Additionally, Boland et al. (2006) may be an unreliable source for etymology. Besides this etymological mistake, various other etymological errors can be found in Boland et al. (2006). However, we can not directly refer to Smith for the full 
etymology, as Smith does not explicitely mention that tereticornis is derived from teres and cornu. I would suggest to remove (in the near future) "from the Latin words teres (becoming tereti- in the combined form) meaning "terete" and cornus meaning "horn"" (already corrected to "cornu") as it does misrepresent the cited source, but advise against reinstating the false etymology of Boland et al.

replies: text: It does matter! If you do have a reliable reference to prove any one of the women is a lesbian, it may have a relationship as to why she would choose to sing in an all-women's band, because they sing music related to their heritage and life experiences. Thus, it would have an impact on what songs they choose, and why. And we do have a GLBT task group here in Wikipedia. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 19:26, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Category talk:Agglomeration communities in France

message: (I am making a request here because I do not want to write it several times on each article's page.) 
There are several articles in this category of En.Wikipedia about French agglomeration (metropolitan) communities that have French titles. They should be changed to English language titles. These include:
* Communauté d'agglomération du Bassin de Thau
* Communauté d'agglomération de Marne et Gondoire
* Communauté d'agglomération Melun-Val de Seine
* Communauté d'agglomération du Pays de Meaux
All of these should be renamed from "Communauté d'agglomération du/de ..."  to "Agglomeration community of ..." to match the many articles with similar titles in this category.
This is a request for an editor to make these changes because I do not know what steps are necessary. Charvex 09:34, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

message: an article should be added for demon apocalypse. Techo 09:49, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Demon apocalypse 

message: The Grubbs Grady article is pretty good overall, but it tends to stray from the character and leans more to summarizing the books!
The "Demon Time" paragraphe for example is completely copied from the Book section. It's a good and nicely written summary (this coming from someone who hasn't read the actual book yet!) but it's probably a good idea to tweak Grubbs' article a bit and make it more about him, rather then the general events in the books. (Mentionings of Kernel becoming blind for example, are best reserved for Kernels own page, and it's easy enough to alter)
It's a challenge, because Grubbs is such a major character, but is anyone willing to help me out? Fantasia-spirit 08:24, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Here's the problem with those links. I put the first one on imdb but they removed the inverted commas for some reason, also blogs aren't used as sources on Wikipedia. The reason why I put Ola in inverted commas is because they are used in this press release. It is possible that the BBC has it wrong (it wouldn't be the first time) so if you feel Ola is her middle and not her nickname, feel free to remove the inverted commas. I should point out that I reverted your placing of her maiden name as it went against the WP:MOS. --Philip Stevens 09:08, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I see.  But I'm puzzled that you included a nickname at all when submitting her birth name to IMDb.  True, people do sometimes have nicknames even before they're born, but do such things really count as part of a birth name? -- Smjg 17:50, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

I have done quite a bit of research about him from 1860-1865, including his role in the plot and the April 19, 1861 riot, his arrest and his movements during the war.

message: The External links section should be limited to a very short list of websites that are highly related to the article's subject.

Per Wikipedia:External links#References and citation, "Sites that have been used as sources in the creation of an article should be cited in the article, and linked as references, either in-line or in a references section. Links to these source sites are not 'external links' for the purposes of this guideline, and should not normally be duplicated in an external links section." As an additional point, references can also serve the purpose of establishing the notability of the subject of an article.
