Talk:Jack Fahy

message: This section was listed as follows and is both POV and unsuppported. Very interesting so am keeping on talk page.
Haven't researched the entire VENONA files, but I can attest to the fact that Jack Bradley Fahy died in 1947 of TB.I was six months old. He and Kathleen McInerny adopted me @ seven days from a private hospital in mid-town Manhattan.Whatever he did or didn't do during the war is cloudy, but what he did during the Spanish Civil War was commendable. I'm very proud to bare his name. Juan Bradley Fahy.

thread_title:  Are we sure? 

message: The original edits referred to a "History Channel documentary" as a reference, but without anything more to go on, it's impossible to prove.
Maybe the reference saying he's a composite character got it wrong, or maybe the composite character is based on a real person by that name plus other people.  Who knows?  The article is in WP:AFD now. With this much uncertainty, I hope this dies there.  If it is the fictional character, it's not notalbe enough to survive, so it should die as well.  If it's the real person, I haven't been able to find anything, which is a strong but not certain indicator of non-notability.  davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 16:53, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Jack March

message: Jack March managed a tournament in Cleveland from 1950 to 1964 (and not 1955 to 1962 as previously suggested) and he called it pompously the "World professional Championships". It was more or less considered as the US Pro championships from 1953 to 1962 though in reality there was no official US Pro Champs at all during these years and in World Tennis magazines this tournament was never called "US Pro Champs" but "P.O.C. World Pro Championships" in the first years and "xxxx" "World Pro Championships" in the last years with "xxxx" varying along the years (for instance in 1962 "xxxx" = "Pepsi-Cola" so "The Pepsi-Cola World Pro Championships") Carlo Colussi (talk) 10:13, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Jacques La Ramee

message: I'm really confused in regards to the lineage indicated, as the parents Joseph and Jeanne had a son in 1784 but he was named Joseph Medard, not Jacques.  As it is customary in Quebec, child were baptized very early on usually within days of being born, and twins would typically be baptized on the same day.  So if we assume that the Joseph (mentioned in The Mountain Men and the Fur Trade of the Far West, Vol. VI.) had indeed a brother named Jacques, this particular Jacques would not be born in 1784 as it is the birth date of Joseph and there are no records of a twin.  It gets further confusing as Joachim Fromhold indicates it is a son of a Francois that would have been named Jacques, but the only son named Francois from the marriage of Joseph and Jeanne, was born in 1804.  It is doubtful that this fits the timeline in the historical records.
Therefore, based on these observations, the parents and/or birth date of Jacques may be erroneous.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ekscrypto (talk • contribs) 14:40, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Talk:XploRe

message: Removed notability header. Xplore has extensive uses in financial modelling. Several books are built around this environment, of which I am familiar with Semiparametric Modelling of Implied Volatility by Matthias Fengler published in the Springer Finance Notes Series. Several resources both online and in print are available to users, and in my experience several "quantlets" are unique to this environment and it makes non parametric estimation very flexible.

Talk:James Botting

message: The James Botting article says that he has executioner from 1817 to 1819 and that two of his notable executions were in 1820 (Cato Street conspiracy) and 1824. The article also states that his successor was his assistant John Foxton.
The [John Foxton]] article says that he succeeded James Botting as executioner in 1818 and that he was responsible for the execution of the Cato Street conspiracy members in 1820.
There are obvious inconsistencies between these two articles, although I cannot determine what the actual story should be.

Talk:List of climbing knots

message: I am trying to find the primary knot climbers use to attach their harness to the belay line.  However, searching this article for "harness" doesn't obviously find it.  The matches are:
: Girth hitch: This hitch is commonly used to attach loops of runner to harnesses, bags, other kinds of equipment, and to natural features like rock knobs or brush/tree trunks for protection  and
: Yosemite bowline: Also called a bowline with a Yosemite finish, this is another way of tying the rope to the harness
So where is the "principal way" to tie a rope to the harness?  —EncMstr (talk) 17:50, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

Talk:James Pimm

message: This page is quite badly inaccurate and whilst it gives a source at the bottom of the page, the source cannot be seen.
If James Pimm was married to the two women listed, the 2nd was certainly not his final wife. It is clearly recorded on the 1851 and 1861 Census a being married to Mary S. (Mary Southernden Mallery). 
I can provide various sources supporting this, and have yet to find anything supporting the events listed on the main page.

Talk:Jane Barnell

message: Is there any readily-accessible public-domain source for fleshing out this article? In particular the text as it stands leaves me wondering how old she was when she was 'sold' — was her beard already growing by then? She couldn't have been terribly old if that first circus abandoned her at an orphanage.
I'm willing to look for the names of her three previous husbands, if someone can direct me where to look; I've never done genealogical research, so while I know the records almost certainly exist somewhere, I don't know where to start looking. From Barnell's appearance and birth location, there's a fair chance she may be related to my fiancee, which would make it even more interesting for me to look into the vital-statistics info for this article.

thread_title: Excellent article

message: Nick's additions of photo material from the PD Collection were mostly of Ru Official Ware and unrelated to the subject at hand. The Mongol Period celadon bowl was indentified as a product of Laohudong from a study of excavation reports. My article itself is ongoing and will be revised. The Ge Ware subject had been raised in various excavation reports and is not yet resolved. This needs to be expanded and clarified. I have studied and collected Chinese ceramics for over 40 years in Japan. I am fluent in both Chinese and Japanese and am a sinolgist by training. I appreciate Nick's comments and input although I sometimes disagree. (Iwanafish)
I have to disagree with Iwanafish's comments above. I put in links to pictures of two pieces of porcelain in the Percival David Foundation (PDF), both of which in my opinion could not possibly be confused with Northern Song Ru wares. However, neither my opinions or Iwanafish's opinions count for much on Wikipedia. Wikipedia demands references from reliable sources, which is what I provided for the two specimens from the PDF. I note that Iwanafish does not provide references to substantiate the very strong statement in the caption of the picture that the brown bowl shown was made at the Laohudong (Tiger Cave) kiln. I would ask him to provide such a reference and also to revert his edit of the article to reverse his deletion of the PDF references. Regards, Nick. Nick 08:38, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
