Talk:John Murray, 4th Earl of Dunmore

message: I'm much interested to see that he 're-sold his ex-slave soldiers after defeat'.  On the other hand I have actually seen the lists of land grants in Nova Scotia to these black ex-soldiers - which land grants are EXACTLY the same size as those granted to white volunteer soldiers from the various Loyalist Volunteer Regiments being de-mobilised up there in the 1783-4 period.   They didnt in fact like the climate, and later formed the nucleus of those, helped by a number of English philanthropists to return to Africa, and founded a new colony
of free men there.  
Its also interesting to see his sons serving in the Kings American Dragoons, (naturally called Murray, not Dunmore) and the unit being presented with colours by the then Prince of Wales, later Geo. 3rd, at a big ceremonial parade at Flushing Meadows, New York. A vivid description of this parade makes interesting reading.

message: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Appletons%27_Cyclop%C3%A6dia_of_American_Biography/Dunmore,_John_MurrayThe way the article is currently written, it implies that militia attacked Lord Dunmore at Porto Bello and wounded him before he took refuge on the British ship Fowey in June 1775. But the cited reference clearly refers to the attack and his wounding as occurring a year later, on Gwynn Island in July 1776.2603:6080:5A06:1200:61B7:E555:FB1C:6427 (talk) 13:30, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Rachid O.

message: His first Google hits (, , & ) make O an initial, not a whole surname. The first of these shows the cover of Dazzled Child, with his name displayed that way, and the third has sufficient slight "degree of separation" to the author to display a photo of him, in which he is posed differently from any hit for his name on Google image search.

Talk:Iphicrates

message: In his day, Iphicrates was most famous as the man who defeated the Spartans in open battle on land for the first time.  The article doesn't say this, although it shattered the image of Spartan invincibility and was the beginning of the end of Sparta's hegemony in Greece.  It should say something like
Iphicrates (Greek: Ιφικράτης) (c. 418 BC – c. 353 BC) was an Athenian general, the son of a shoemaker of the deme of Rhamnous,[1] who flourished in the earlier half of the 4th century BC. He was the first to defeat the Spartans in open battle and is credited with important infantry reforms that revolutionized ancient Greek warfare by regularizing light-armed peltasts.[2] He was never defeated in battle and had many military stratagems attributed to him.
Somewhere else it could also be added that
he never lost a court case, was never exiled, and Polyaenus attributed more than 63 stratagems to him - the greatest number for any single general.  He was the first Athenian strategos (general) to have his own name instead of his city's inscribed on the spoils of war. Simply to be able to say that you had fought under Iphicrates' command became a title of the greatest honour.

:::In July of 2008, she dismissed a copyright infringement and racketeering lawsuit against the Council on American and Islamic Relations, also known by its acronym C.A.I.R., filed by radio host Michael Savage.
needs further explanation.  
I believe this has something to do with the incident (before an appearance by GOP President nominee Sen. John McCain) in which, publicly, Savage repeatedly said Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama's middle name of Hussein.  What this had to do with C.A.I.R. or a lawsuit against them isn't explained.  
Without further explanation, I think it should be removed because, imo, all it does is raise questions which it doesn't answer.

message: Once being hard 'croaticentric', this croatian linguist is waking up and like many other nationalisticly inclinned linguists before him, tells the truth: Croatian and Serbian are just 2 variants of ONE SAME LANGUAGE. In the article, whose link I will put below, Katicic openly tells that 'Hercegovian dialect (Shtokavian), which is also taken to be the standard for the 'Croatian' language,-is same language with the Serbian dialects (also Shtokavian), and they (Serbian and Croatian) cannot be considered as different languages'. This is one more prove of the recent process of 'soberization' of many croatian linguists, even the nationalists ones, who were pressured to present lies about the language during the slowely dying HDZ natonalistic euphoria in Croatia. With this evidence of the facts about the Serbocroatian language, and many more to come from the big majority of now 'soberized' croatian linguists, cro-nationalists are slowely, but definitely losing their dirty separatistic war, which was full of lies and manipulations of the facts, and also against all the progressive and civilizated trends in today's linguistic world.
