Talk:Victor, Prince Napoléon

message: Was there ever a serious Bonapartist movement in Westphalia? Or was any Bonaparte ever seriously interested in Westphalia after the defeat of Napoleon I? I believe the mere descendance from a king doesn't make a person a "pretender", so I would suggest deleting the references to Westphalia in the table. -Oudeístalk  19:54, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Conan I of Rennes

message: Please either provide some reliable sources for his year of birth, or just remove it. I don't believe he was born in 927.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.247.27.221 (talk) 14:03, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Regarding "requests" please remember that wikipedia is supposed to be a collaborative medium and that identifying your participation is very helpful. I have added a link to the English language article on Hoel which contains info on Guerech. There is material there. Note that some of the info on Dukes of Brittany comes from English sources and resides mostly in supporting articles from English language wikipedia and others comes from French wikipedia. 
regarding his birth date.....It only appears in the succession box. If you have a better date with reliable sources please provide it. Just because you "don't believe it" doesn't mean it should be removed. Rather, if you are skeptical the right thing to do is to discuss further here and when various contributors have the time, they will try to address the issue with greater specificity. We should leave it as is for now, in my opinion. You can provide a more detailed discussion, while identifying yourself, here on on my TALK page for this article. Thank you.

message: See also section comes before notes/refs. see WP:ORDER in the Manual of Style.  "A bulleted list, preferably alphabetized, of internal links to related Wikipedia articles. Portal [singular] and Wikipedia books links are usually placed in this section"—see WP:SEEALSO. Multiple portals unnecessarily clutter the article and conventionally only one, the principal portal, is used. Besides, most are linked internally. The tags I just added to the lead will hopefully provide time to support these claims in the body of the article with quality source citations as per WP:REFB. Lastly, brief vacancies between counts and other officeholders during this period was not unusual. Bearpatch (talk) 19:54, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

message: So Conan I "was the son of Judicael Berengar, succeeding his father as Count of Rennes in 970. ...

Talk:Northeast Airlines

message: Northeast Airlines' patron historic aviator was Amelia Earhart
Advertising:
In the late 1940's, Northeast Airlines used an advertising jingle on Boston radio stations.
"Take your trip in a Yankee ship,
Aloft in the blue today,
 [ missing words ] in a Yankee ship,
For comfort all the way.
No finer ship, no finer crew,
 [ missing line ]
 [ missing line ]
Take your trip in a Yankee ship."
Information Technology:  
In 1968 Northeast Airlines installed dual IBM 360 model 65s in a data center in Andover, Massachusetts.  The data center also housed keypunch operators, a turbine-powered generator, tape drives, and four banks of 9-unit 2314 disk storage systems.  Northeast implemented IBM's Programmed Airlines Reservation System (PARS), which also contained a message switching system for Northeast's teletype network.  PARS was able to accept reservations a year in advance, and included an overbooking feature.  It was more advanced than the contemporary SABRE system because it maintained individual passenger name records.
Personal recollection of author, former data center employee.

message: There is something really wrong with the dates in this short article. It says she was the Mistress of Louis XVI of France who died in 1793 but she was born in 1785 - was she his mistress at the age of 8?! It also says she as married in 1802, had two children and THEN met the king!! Then it talks about incidents with the king in 1817, 1821, 1822 and then the article implies that the king died in 1824.

Talk:Adalbert I, Count of Vermandois

message: Do we really need a 1000-character description of the fact (historically irrelevant, as nobody but later genealogists seems to have noticed) that they were distant cousins? Agricolae (talk) 00:50, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: There are several points being overlooked here. By today’s standards they might be considered distant cousins but by canon law of the time they were considered too close for marriage. The note also points out the history of repeated intermarital alliances in this branch that were not cases of simple consanguinity and affinity, but for which another more descriptive term was coined, ‘affinal relinkings’ (fr: renchaînement alliance). Also, it was by anthropologists not genealogists. I could have added that Adalbert I and his wife Gerberge have been the subject of anthropological studies as examples of affinal relinkings and this branch of the Carolingians disregarding canon laws for their own gains. But I kept this note as brief as possible (actually, 750 characters/164 words), but still adding educational value for those readers interested in following up on this. I also find it interesting you’d bring this up given your authorship of a much larger note on William de Warenne’s page, which was on the subject of genealogy. I will say that, although lengthy (since you appreciate accurate counting, it was 2295 characters/490 words), it seemed to provide additional information some readers might appreciate. So I assumed you saw the value in such notes. BTW, thank you for reminding me the note here was unfinished and unsourced. Also, I should not have said there were no records of a dispensation, but in consulting my notes I quickly discovered why. This branch, of which Adalbert was a member, had a history of circumventing canon laws regarding consanguinity and affinity and it is important to point this out. As per WP:TPA an article “Acknowledges and explores all aspects of the subject”.Bearpatch (talk) 17:22, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Continuing WP:TPA, " i.e., it covers every encyclopedic angle of the subject."  Every encyclopedic angle, not everything that has ever been said about the subject.

Talk:Oliver Belmont

message: The article does not put together very well the information available on Wikipedia. The Belmonts were Gilded Age "barons", one of the families that started from nowhere and nothing but because of fortuitous circumstances acquired immense fortunes. Once they got started there was no limit to the expansion of their wealth due to there being no income taxes and no labor laws. They spent their best time in Newport building these huge "cottages." Expense was no object. They were deliberately ostentatious and exclusive, which is charicaturized by one of the media available. Oliver is depicted with a snooty look saying "Don't touch me" in Latin. The whole topic of August's judaism as well as his wealth is left incomplete. August is mentioned in Birmingham's "Our Crowd." He came to this country as an agent for Rothchild's banking firm, but when that went bankrupt in America he started his own bank, which took off like a rocket. He hid his judaism, like the other "our crowd" gentility, and being handsome and affable as well as a capable financier soon married a Protestant girl of good family. He converted to her religion, which was episcopalian, and overtly we heard no more about judaism. Oliver's mother undoubtedly got him into St. Paul's, one of the best private schools around, and set him up for the USNA, where today the words of one of her ancestors, "Don't give up the ship," glare through the door of Memorial Hall. He was a cooperative young man though unenthusiastic up until the day of his majority. Then he did as he pleased, which turned out to be quitting the navy, marriage and horse racing. The Academy had its effect. At the end of his life he began to feel meaningless and turned to the government for meaning. Unfortunately he was yanked out of it by appendicitis and death. His time was up. Just using all the links now available someone should put together a meaningful article that shows the course of Oliver's life and position in society. Right now we have scattered and random half-truths.Botteville (talk) 11:26, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

message: Some edits a few months ago have rejected the documented parentage of William, as son of (an) Adelaide, a relationship that appears in two contemporary records and has been fully cited.  The explanation given for this is that William could not have married the daughter of Fulk I were his mother Fulk's granddaughter.  While entirely true, the problem is not with William (b. say 976) being grandson of Fulk II (b. ca. 905).  The problem is with William (b. say 976) being son-in-law of Fulk I (b. ca. 870, d. 940).
