Talk:Werner von Blomberg

message: You know, there were a number of places in "Deutsches Reich" which bore the name
"STARGARD", or similar:
 
1. Stargard in Pommern (now Stargard Szczecinski, Poland)
2. Stargard (Burg Stargard) in Mecklenburg
3. (Preussisch) Stargard, near Danzig (now Starogard Gdanski, Poland)
4. Stargardt (Brandenburg).
To give the exact place, one should name "Stargard in Pommern" here
Thanks,

thread_title: Stargard/Pomerania !

message: The claim made here (which I had to remove twice) that Frau von Blomberg was a former prostitute is erroneous. Both Len Deighton in his book Blitzkrieg and Ian Kershaw in Volume 2 of his Hitler biography say quite clearly that the Frau Blomberg's criminal record was for posing for pornographic photos, not prostitution. The claim that Frau Blomberg was a former prostitute was just a malicious smear on the part of Hermann Göring to discredit Blomberg, something that far too people are willing to repeat today, presumably because it sounds more salacious-A.S.

message: It says in the article thatAnglo-Saxon culture is derived from Scandinavian culture, but as only some of the Anglo-Saxons came from Scandinavia (Jutland), I wonder if this is entirely true and should be in the article? Drogo (talk) 14:08, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think this is true or should be in the article. Old English is a western Germanic language (though influenced by Old Norse). Also, the remark about Goths fighting mounted being 'relations' of the Angles and Saxons (if those indeed made up the main bulk of the immigrants from the continent, better call them Anglosaxons) is not true. First, 'Goths' is too broad a term. Second, Goths are only very distantly 'related' to the Anglosaxons (their languages differed very much, Western Germanic language vs Eastern Germanic language). Third, Goths had a only slightly more mounted warriors then other Germanic groups. The phrase as it is now "(their relations the Goths did fight mounted)" should for accuracy be changed to: "(the Huns, who weren't related to Anglosaxons at all but lived around the same time, did fight mounted).

message: No, leave it as it is. The sources don't say liberally democratic, they simply say that Cuba is not a democracy. The addition of the Cuban constitution is somewhat irrelevant as it's a primary source - what they themselves say they does not take priority over independent sources. The rationale  for "yes" are also faulty: it's not up to us as editors to introduce our own interpretations into the text (that democracy is difficult to define, therefore we must narrow it down for the reader, even though the sources don't say this); that's WP:OR. The rationale for "yes" seem to rely entirely on one user's disagreement with the conclusion of the sources and attempting to correct their definition for them. This is explicitly not what we do. Instead we simply present their conclusion, which is simply that Cuba is not a democracy. — Czello (music) 07:42, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

In these typology should be listed not only overall state geographic latitude and longitude extreme points, but mainland and regioni one's too, like Brazil's article. It is possible to add extreme settlements also. Moreover, extreme points are elevation ones too, like in Extreme points of Switzerland, another country with few or no islands at all. When all this data are present, the list is too specific to be part of the global country article and IMHO should be a separate article. --EH101 (talk) 11:06, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Paulley 16:09, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I moved it back. The article is too stubby without the title history to warrant a breakout. I'm not sure we really need to list every title defence; we don't in other championship articles, it isn't particularly useful information, and it would quickly get unmanageably long. Adding a column for number of defences in a given reign could be valuable, however.  — Gwalla | Talk 17:58, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: There's nothing that suggests Jay & Aries will be the champs from here on out; merely that Aries will be Jay's partner for the match against the Age of the Fall.

Tromboneguy0186 (talk) 20:40, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes, while you have a point here, it would be pretty Russo-riffic for Jay to select a partner for every title defense, and ROH is a promotion that tries to be everything but that.
