Talk:Aristodemus of Miletus

message: The text is nearly unreadable and is entirely unusable. I assume that the article's referring to the Seleucid empire as "king of Asia" and that the whole article is about the machinations of the Hellenistic fluctuations of power during the battles between the Seleucids, Ptolemies, Pergamum, and the Aegean League. However, except for a vague reference to the subject being SOME time in the 300's, there is no way to locate him in place.
I would be tempted to say that the subject fails "notability," except, of course, that it doesn't. It merely does so when written with a mouth full of marbles and a head full of smoke. Ordinarily, I would turn some of the passive voice constructions to active voice, but that's hard when the nouns and verbs are unmoored in place and time. Hithladaeus (talk) 12:11, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

The word “dead” was here when the quote was introduced by Savidan, but it is either mistranscribed or out of context. -Ahruman (talk) 09:44, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

message: :Seniority is the name of a magazine catering to the aging population of Northern Ohio.
I could be wrong, but this doesn't sound like a notable magazine. I removed this text from the article (particularly because it doesn't fit in very well).

message: My experience (working in the UK for 20+ years, in USA for 10+ years) is that this is an American concept. I have never heard of anyone "claiming seniority" in the office in England. Now it may be that I haven't worked in unionised industries in the UK, so it may apply there. But I haven't heard of it in discussions of labour relations either. So is it an American concept?

Talk:Arthur Chichester, 1st Marquess of Donegall

message: The article has since its creation stated that Chichester was created Baron Fisherwick in 1790 in order for the Government to obtain his support in the Irish House of Commons. This is exceptionally unlikely for the following reasons: (1) from 1765 Chichester, as Earl of Donegall, was a member of the Irish House of Lords and therefore would have been ineligible for a seat in the Irish House of Commons; (2) even if he was a member of the Irish House of Commons no other reference is ever made to his election there (Chichester was elected as an MP for the House of Commons of Great Britain in 1768 but that is a completely different [non-]issue, and anyhow he left his seat there in 1774, 16 years before being made Baron Fisherwick, so it is unlikely that this is where the confusion has arisen); (3) Baron Fisherwick was a title in the peerage of Great Britain and so would have entitled Donegall to sit in the House of Lords of Great Britain, it is unclear how giving Chichester the right to sit in a far more prestigious Parliament 'overseas' would have encouraged him to remain in Ireland and vote there rather than going to sit in this more prestigious Parliament. If a source exists which can both (a) verify this claim, and (b) explain why these rather unorthodox forms of 'patronage' were employed great, otherwise I propose removing the dubious parts of this claim.

Talk:Batch distillation

message: First, let me say that I think this is an extremely well researched article. I converted all of the references in the text of the article to the Wiki recommended  and  format. In so doing, the text contained a reference to Lang et al. (1999) but the reference list did not contain that reference ... so I included a "citation needed" tag next to that text reference. Also, the reference list included a thesis by Hilmen Eva-Katrine but there was no reference in the text to that thesis ... so I moved that thesis listing to the Further Reading section.
I also converted the three book references in the Further Reading section to the Wiki preferred  format and added some missing info to them (i.e., ISBN numbers). - mbeychok 04:00, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

in Diagram of a Batch Stripper there are two product outlets and the description is confusing if compared to the diagram.  There is a rather minimal heating source through the re-boiler with the charge entering the column at ambient temperature.
in Diagram of a Middle Vessel Column there is no mention of how the set-up is charged (into the middle vessel no doubt) and the method that the products flow through the middle vessel are not indicated or described in any way, basically just through flow or some other magic. There is a rather minimal heating source through the re-boiler with the charge entering the column at ambient temperature.

Talk:Arthur P. Gorman

message: Gorman was a regular player for the "National" baseball club of Washington or Washington Nationals in 1865. The club was established 1859, joined the NABBP for 1861 and 1864, but 1865 is its first season lightly covered by the leading secondary sources on the league. All clubs outside greater New York dropped out during the war, but some presumably continued to practice and play locally.
August 28 and 29, the Nationals played road games "at" the Philadelphia Athletics and Brooklyn Atlantics, the strongest teams in Philadelphia and greater New York. The scale of other intercity tours that season was New York to the Mohawk River valley or Philadelphia to New York. 
Gorman played both games. Limited records for the season show clearly that the Nationals were overmatched by "the best" and suggest that Gorman, in his mid-twenties and apparently well-matched with his teammates, would soon have been replaced for intercity competition at least. The club improved its team and undertook the first western tour (or "national" tour) in 1867. In 1866 Gorman was not among ten men known to play at least 5 of 15 games.
