Talk:Roy Morgan

message: For some reason this page was nominated for AFD.  Result was overwhelming keep, strangely enough.  Regards, Ben Aveling 13:21, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The reason it was nominated was that this page appeared to be a nn, corporate vanity page offering no info apart from that available on the company's website, and no explaination as to why its notable enough to get an encyclopedia entry. AnAn 02:16, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: AfD and notability

message: Is it just me or does this article seem like one giant advertisement for Roy Morgan? I also note that in terms of Australian state and federal polling, Newspoll is always far more accurate with their predictions compared to the election outcome in comparison to Roy Morgan... not to slag Roy Morgan in any way but it's just what i've noticed and what others would notice if they look at the figures...

replies: text: Roy Morgan Research →  – Or, just Roy Morgan? The current name of the polling company is just Roy Morgan, but this is set up as a DAB page, but there's only one other true alias, which could be dealt with in a hatnote (Gramps Morgan). I could have moved it myself, but thought it best to canvass a couple of opinions as to the best solution, first. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 07:15, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Jackal (The Day of the Jackal)

message: I've made two significant changes; firstly, I changed the claim that the book was published "moments after" de Gaulle's death to "shortly after" - the previous claim is invalid as de Gaulle died in 1970. Secondly, I deleted the Trivia remark about the Jackal taking his name from an animal predator, as this is so obvious as not to be worth saying. Jon Rob 13:26, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Changes made 

message: The following I have removed from the page itself, as it looks like it should be on talk anyway.
When the real Charles Calthrop was discovered missing from his apartment but had not seen fit to take his passport with him the British police assumed that he was travelling on a false passport. One of the ways anyone could obtain a false passport in those days was to apply in the name of a deceased child. The British police checked recent passport applications against death records and came up with the name Duggan. Clearly the real applicant for this passport was not Calthrop, but finding the name was not luck at all. It was the result of following a long and methodical process. You are correct to say that he may not even have been British.

thread_title:  Removed for the page itself 

message: The Jackal is described as (looking like) "a tall, blonde Englishman in his early thirties". However he may or may not be English - or Scottish. The identity that he had adopted is that of "Alexander Duggan who died at the age of two and a half years in 1931"- notably a Scottish (or perhaps Irish) boy, not an English one.Royalcourtier (talk) 01:24, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Upper structure

message: I am attemting a re-working of this article which recognises that "upper structures" are first and foremost a jazz specific method for composing and improvising. It is not a general term which gets used in discussion of western or any other kind of music apart from jazz. If it does then it is by way of an anology with jazz practice.
I've moved the article from 'upper structure triad' as that's not how Levine refers to it in his books, which are the primary written sources for students of jazz piano and arranging. Anyway, all help appreciated. Please let me know what you think. It's still a work in progress, but I'll keep coming back.Dr McV (talk) 08:42, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That's true that Levine just says "upper structure," but I would be in favor of moving the article back to "upper structure triad." The term "upper structure" is used in many different ways and isn't as specific. "Upper structure triad" is clear and unambiguously refers to one type of thing. Atpal (talk) 00:03, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Re-write 

message: I recognise that most of this needs referencing, and I plan to do this by consulting Tim Richard's books as well as the Levine when I have them handy. Will maybe some of the websites on the jazz project list too. Any help appreciated. Dr McV (talk) 13:25, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: I did a lot of Hatha Yoga in my youth, around 45 years ago. I don't remember downward dog at all from that time.
I started going to yoga classes around 5 years ago and it was completely different from former days. Just about every 2nd or 3rd posture for the whole hour was downward dog. It was completely alien to me.
I just came from a yoga class this evening in which they did downward dog about 20 times in a one hour class. There was no plough position, no shoulder stand, no sitting twist, and so on. (I don't remember the Sanskrit names for these familiar and basic asanas.)
What on earth is going on? What is called Hatha Yoga in the US in the 21 century is absolutely unrecognizable from the Hatha Yoga familiar to those of us who practiced it in the 1960s and 1970s. ---Dagme (talk) 05:45, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Francis Wayland Parker

message: Have just come across the following Encyclopædia Britannica and came to Wikipedia to expand a bit. The wikilink in the article just redirects, which suggests (correct me if I'm wrong) that an editor considered it relatively unimportant. Shouldn't Wikipedia contain at least the same articles that the Britannica considers relevant... or is destined to become just a continuously updated fansite for pop stars?

replies: text: I haven't got the source I used to hand at the mo but this extract from a 1910 History of the Isle of Man puts it in Ireland and "probably" Man too. Run-rig is recorded at Alwinton in the C18 (section 6.7.1)and this source talks about a type of run rig was used generally in northern Northumberland. adamsan 22:07, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Where else are they: Cumbria 

message: There seems to be some confusion here.
Run rig and rundale are systems of land occupation.  Ridge and furrow is not, it's a cultivation pattern which could occur in any system of land occupation where arable farming is done with non-reversible ploughs.  Surviving ridge and furrow topography is therefore an indication of systems where it was used – including (at least) the run rig, rundale and English open field systems.  I've tried to amend run rig to reflect this.--Richard New Forest 10:38, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Run rig, rundale, open field, ridge and furrow

message: The article suffers from a number of expression and interpretation errors as well as general mistakes. The image provided in the article should identify the evidence as rig and furrow strips which were/may have been administered on a run-rig system of tenure. As for the description of run-rig itself, it is flawed. While a certain land or township would be divided between farmers, the use of the word strip is a problem, because this applied not just to farmed portions but also the waste baulks between them or between neighbouring townships/lands. Also, each farmer or family did not have to receive just one rig. This varied greatly. Sometimes the land was divided into three rigs per family, two rigs, three rigs and a cross rig, etc.  Finally, the changes in the 18th century did lead to the transition to crofts, but this was concentrated in the Highlands and Islands. In other areas it was simple separate farms per tenant/proprietor family, and arranged into rectilinear enclosed fields. This dominated in the Lowlands and some Highland areas. The article, as it is, is far from an adequate and factual account of the run-rig system. 82.43.88.129 (talk) 22:58, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Lewis E. Welshofer Jr.

message: Abed Hamed Mowhoush says that he died on November 26.  Did the court conclude that Welshofer performed actions that caused his three-days-later death, or did they conclude that he died from something else but with Welshofer's actions as major contributing factors, or was the date of death disputed (perhaps he died on November 23?), or something else?  Perhaps he was convicted of negligent homicide for someone else's death?  Right now, the story in this article ends with the guy in the sleeping bag, and only by mentioning the conviction am I left to guess that Mowhoush died.  2001:18E8:2:28CA:F000:0:0:CB89 (talk) 12:17, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
