Talk:Color–color diagram

message: I have not yet completely familiarized myself on the rules about which images may be used here, so I stayed on the safe side and only included an image that already had its fair use verified. I would like to see an example color-color diagram included though at some point, if possible. I could even include one that I created for a class I took, if that is allowed, but it would be by far be preferable to get one that was created by a professional astronomer.

Talk:List of popes by length of reign/Archives 1

message: Why is this there?  No disrespect to him, but in the context of this list, he's just somebody on the list, not the longest reigner. Why not a photo of a painting of St Peter?  Or, if we accept that nobody knows what Peter looked like, why not a photo of Pio Nono, who was, after all, the pope with the longest accurately dated reign.  JackofOz 01:35, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Why not list all the popes in order of their reign?  Is there anything special about the number 10?  There are thousands of lists on Wikipedia, and very few of them arbitrarily stop at the top 10, most are a lot longer.  In this list in particular, the unnecessary existence of a cut-off point has created more trouble than it's worth.  Besides, the full list would be just as useful and fascinating as the top 10.

This would obviate the need to have 2 separate lists (Longest Reigning Top 10 and Shortest Reigning Top 10), and would obviate this interminable discussion about whether Peter is in our out.  My opinion remains that there is nothing magical about the number 10.  Let's list all of the buggers.  JackofOz 00:53, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

Talk:MedStar Washington Hospital Center

message: I was wondering why Steve Scalise is being listed as one of the people being treated at the Hospital. There have been plenty of "famous" people to be treated there. There is no list of them, so I do not understand why he is being singled out as "special". 
* It treated victims of the June 2017 Congressional baseball shooting, including U.S. House Majority Whip Representative Steve Scalise, R-LA, who was listed in critical but stable condition.
I move to delete the sentence. Anyone else agree with this? - Lady Meg (talk) 20:16, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I have deleted the sentence as it had nothing to do with the History of the hospital and it's rather tacky to put up a sentence about one person being treated at the Hospital, even if he is a Representative. Other people from that incident were treated there and if you add one, you should then have a whole list of everyone "special" who has been treated there.

Talk:Maundy Gregory

message: I recall in about 1980 reading a biography of Gregory which states he died in a French hospital from effects of alcoholism. It is questionable he would have been allowed a supply of alcohol in an internment camp run by the Nazis and the book's comment was that deprivation of alcohol hastened his death.

The agenda mostly remain the same, they are only redistributed between the ministries. Normally, along with this, they are renamed. Thus, a new ministry may have several predecessors. The problem to be solved is to keep track of these changes. 
Perhaps we should keep (maybe even rebuild) the old articles as about historic ministries and create new ones for ministries with new names. So we can reference the predecessors neatly. Wschroedter 13:03, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Maurice J. Tobin

message: The Infobox says he died in Scituate, Massachusetts, while the body of the article says he died at home in Boston. Which is correct?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.49.205.24 (talk) 20:20, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Inconsistency 

message: Here is part of the opening paragraph on the Massachusetts State Government Web site:
:A protégé of James Michael Curley, Tobin was elected a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives at age twenty-five. After serving on Boston's school committee from 1931-1937, Tobin shocked the political establishment by challenging and beating his mentor, James Curley, in the 1936 Mayoral race.
Notice how closely it resembles the text in the article:
:...he graduated from Boston College before entering politics as a protege of the legendary James Michael Curley. Tobin was elected to the Massachusetts House of Representatives at the age of 25, serving from 1927 to 1929. He served on the Boston School Committee from 1931 to 1937, before shocking the political establishment by defeating Curley in the 1937 race for Mayor of Boston.

Talk:Forest Recreation Ground

message: Not sure the name really has much to do with Sherwood Forest and this lacks a citation at the moment. I've noticed that Edward IV created a new park or forested area for himself, based on Nottingham Castle, and Larkdale, one of the areas earmarked for it, seems to be an area north of the city centre, possibly including what is now the Forest rec. Larkdale St is just across Forest Rd. He extracted part of Larkdale from Dale Abbey to grant them a licence to appropriate Heanor church. See Calendar of Patent Rolls, Edward IV Henry VI, 1467–1477, p. 479. It's possible, I guess, that this is why the area got to be seen as a new royal forest. Not sure how long Edward IV's forest lasted, or even whether the project actually got off the ground, but I can imagine any population clearances or oppressive restrictions making a big impact at so late a date, when forest law was in steep decline. I feel a bit impertinent mentioning this because, although I was educated nearby and worked for several years right next to the Forest, I never thought at the time to do any serious research on the subject and am a complete neophyte on Nottingham local history.
