Talk:2007–08 NCAA football bowl games

message: It would be really cool if the main table were sortable (as some I've seen on other articles). That would allow the reader to find more easily by Name, City or see them ranked by payout, rather than just chronologically as they are now. If someone already knows the secrets of those, it would be great if you could fix it up. Otherwise, I suppose I might go find one and see if I can hack my way through it.

thread_title: Hawai{{okina}}i and Mainland Games

message: Please DO NOT in any way or form list teams until OFFICAILLY confirmed by schools, bowls or BCS.  There was a list that had Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl and LSU in the National Championship contest. Only Ohio State was in the BCS Title game, Southern California in the Rose Bowl, Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl and Virginia Tech in the Orange according to the listings and tie-ins. I reverted to that edit as none of the sources were confirmed, and will be released between 8 PM and 8:30 PM US EST this evening (12/2/07).  All others will follow. NoseNuggets 2:40 PM US EST Dec 2 2007.
:Also, please do not place teams in either the winning or losing columns or the respective bowl game pages.  Since the game has not been played out yet, it wouldn't make sense to do this.  It will just get reverted until the game is finished.  RIPLIUKANG (talk) 10:42, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: An evangelist and a missionary are not the same. And my point is that because so many LDS members are missionaries, it's rarely a defining characteristic of them, suitable for disambiguation. --BDD (talk) 20:48, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: He goes forth amongst the outlaw bikers to preach about god, that being his mission, so is a missionary, the same as the LDS members preaching to the gentiles, and unlike megachurch pastors who preach to the faithful while using TV shows to evangelize to the masses. As LDS members frequently become missionaries, the term "missionary" is therefore ambiguous when LDS members are part of the topics to be disambiguated against, so needing additional disambiguation.  -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 00:18, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: Luxembourg national anthem

message: Can anyone clarify John Stafford Smith's name? Is "Stafford Smith" a compound surname, or is Stafford a (middle) given name? He is referred to simply as Smith in several places in the article, implying that Stafford is a given name and not part of his surname, but as Stafford Smith in two places using phrasing that suggests that Stafford Smith is a compound surname.Rks13 (talk) 09:56, 18 November 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Clarify surname? 

message: A reliable source is needed to support that . In addition, it also needs a reliable source that states it was not the cause of Smith's death, that Smith's cause of death was confused with the death of Anacreon. Citing Pliny as to the cause of Anacreon's death does neither. Schazjmd (talk) 20:47, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

Talk:John Stringfellow

message: * Sorry, guys, but Stringfellow is a fake - Lilienthal was definently the first!!!
Stringfellow constructed a ramp. His airfoil was incapable a generating lift because it was flat See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Stringfellows_flying_machine.JPG. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airfoil.
Whilst this may be true of John Stringfellow and William Henson's early efforts eventually Stringfellow did build a plane that flew in 1848. Initially on a wire until it gained enough airspeed for free flight, albeit only a short distance indoors, this was indeed free powered flight (until it hit the wall). The replica model on display in Chard Museum (on loan from the Science museum) defiantly has an aerofoil section though probably not as efficient as that later devised by Lilienthal following his extensive research with gliders.
In truth both men made valuable contributions in the pursuit of heavier than air flight, but neither could possibly succeed until the invention of the internal combustion engine.

Talk:John Taylor (Baptist preacher)

message: I've added important material, both from Taylor's own account and contemporary writers, about his land and slaveholdings, which effectively put him in the planter class, as defined by modern historians. This provides a more balanced look at the state of the members of the Baptist Church at the time, as they had come to an accommodation with slavery.  It also demonstrates the potential for men to advance themselves on the frontier, where land was relatively cheap. In the eighteenth-century movement, early Baptist preachers in the South called for the abolition of slavery. By this time in the nineteenth century, some were rising from relatively lower-class origins to become planters and slaveholders.Parkwells (talk) 16:44, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk:List of video games set in London

message: I think that the layout of the page should be changed to be similar to the layout of List of video games set in New York City. I propose that the list should be split into two sections: "List of games which feature London" and "List of games which feature a fictional city closely based on London", and that the lists should be made into tables. This would allow the games to be sorted alphabetically by title, by the year of release, or by genre. The current system contains separate lists for each genre, which causes some difficulties as genre can be somewhat subjective, and many games fall into multiple categories. To help show the layout I have copied the first few entries of the tables below (note that the size of the tables has been changed slightly by making them collapsible). I think this system is better, but I wanted to check that no-one had any issues with it before going ahead with a major change. Please feel free to comment on the style, and let me know if there should be any changes to it. If there are no comments here, I'll go ahead and make the change in the next couple of days.

Talk:Albert Henry Hime

message: Noticed that this section has very little information. Here is some information I have written up for a school report. Dont know how much it could help but It's worth placing here just in case it does help.
Sir Albert Henry Hime was born in 1842 to Rev. M.C. Hime and Harriett Lloyd. He was educated in Portora Royal School, Enniskillen, Trinity College, Dublin and the Royal Military Academy. In 1861 he was commissioned into the Royal Engineers. He was promoted to Captain in 1874, Major 1881 and retired in 1883 as a Lieutenant Colonel. Most of his time in the military was spent in Natal as a roads, railway and harbour engineer. He was later elected to the Natal Legislative Council. In 1884-85 he surveyed the Natal-Orange Free State border and during this survey he discovered many of the rock paintings in the area. From 1897 to 1899 he was Minister for Lands, Works and Defence and from 1899 to 1901 during the Boer War he was Prim Minister. He stayed in office until 1903.
He played an important role in stopping the 1906 Zulu Rebellion and afterwords he retired to England. He was made a CMG in 1886 and was awarded a knighthood in 1900. He became a Privy Councillor in 1902. He was awarded honorary degrees of Doctor of Law from the Universities of Dublin, Cambridge and Edinburgh. The Town of Himeville near Unberberg Natal is named after him.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.202.188.55 (talk) 19:21, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
