message: The article currently lists "Ekaterina" as the Latvian form of this name.

I'd say that either "Katrīna" or "Jekaterina" should be considered the Latvian form of this name (at least one of them should definitely be included in the article).

message: This page has been renamed as a disambiguation (with two attempts to get the spelling right, neither successful); according to WP:NC-SHIP, repeated uses of the same ship name within a given navy just use that name as the page title of an index of ships (as can be seen with many other entries in :Category:Royal_Navy_ship_names).

Talk:Nothobranchius aff. taeniopygus

message: Please note that Nothobranchius aff. taeniopygus is not a species name (contrary to Nothobranchius taeniopygus, which is a recognized species). Instead it's taxononical status is unknown but the taxon has an affinity to Nothobranchius taeniopygus – as hinted by the "aff." i.e. species affinis remark. In layman's terms: "We found this fish that we can't yet name, but it looks really similar to Nothobranchius taeniopygus and is probably related to it." Hence Nothobranchius aff. taeniopygus is more of a placeholder name until further scientific proof can pinpoint it's place within the nomenclature.
This also means that (as with all "aff." names) "Nothobranchius aff. taeniopygus" is not a proper taxon name, since the same epithet can be used for several different groups of organisms waiting to be examined. The particular group mentioned by this Wikipedia article may turn out to be identical to Nothobranchius taeniopygus (in which case the "aff." is removed), or it may turn out to be an entirely new species (in which case it must get a new, different name since Nothobranchius taeniopygus is already occupied). –Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 10:13, 12 August 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Thervingi

message: The "quick summary" of "Arian" belief is just wrong.
* In the first place, there were many "Arian" traditions - I've been working on this over at Arian controversy but mostly just covering who, what, where, when and skipping why for now.
* It's not clear which traditions predominated among the Goths. Of course Wulfila greatly influenced Gothic Christianity in general. He signed the Homoian creed at Constantinople (359), but even Aëtius endorsed similar language at the time. Auxentius provides Wulfila's creed and Philostorgius specifically identifies Wulfila as an Anomoean.
* It's clear that the Arian traditions worshiped Jesus and therefore regarded Jesus as God, although the meaning of this probably varied considerably within both Arian and Athanasian traditions. Jacob Haller 01:15, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Religion

message: If the name means 'forest people', wouldn't it derive from Gothic triu, meaning tree? The etymology would then become trew-ing or triw-ing, with metathesis. Are there any sources that confirm this? CodeCat (talk)
:Good question. I'd like to see more info on this. I think Wolfram, although he identifies the Thervingi with the Visigothi, compares the etymology of Thervingi to that of Derevliany from tree. But you would need to explain the far-from-regular shift from triu to *Tiru[-iggos]. 71.191.226.223 (talk) 23:25, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Unfortunately, the etymology of Thuringii is also unknown, but may be analogous to that of Thervingi [both come from the same language family, both names at least superficially resemble each other, one name has been associated with forest people and the other group is also associated with forested regions] and more loosely analogous to Derevliany. 71.191.226.223 (talk) 23:30, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Etymology of the name 

message: Is there a reason that the modern Dneister River is referred to using the apparently (according to the Dneister page) Russian alliterative form "Dnestr"?

thread_title: George cross

message: The Order of Merit of the Italian Republic (Ordine al Merito della Repubblica Italiana) is not the highest award for gallantry. The statutes of the order clearly say that its purpose is to award "long and meritorous military service"  , not gallantry as such. On the other hand, the Gold Medal of Military Valor (Medaglia d'oro al Valor Militare) is awarded for "acts of military heroism -- performed courageously -- at the risk of life".  The Gold Medal of Military Valor is even higher in the Italian order of precedence than the highest class of the Order of Merit  . For these reasons I have substituted the Medal of Valor for the Order of Merit. --Pxos (talk) 08:18, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Ocean Park, Surrey

message: Conflicting sources here. The book, "British Columbia Place Names" by G. P. V. Akrigg, Helen B. Akrigg, says it is a Straits Salish or Halkomelem word meaning "dog face" (page 146, freely available through a Google Books search). "Know BC" suggested people retconned the etymology or something for the more marketable definition of "place of vision"...
May need some more research and reflection on that, the current dead link source doesn't appear to have a source itself when it worked either. 2600:4040:7A61:600:3010:18B2:8F72:22C8 (talk) 02:16, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

They were on a comparable scale and organized in the same way.  The Bureau of International Expositions uses the term in English.   Calling it an "Exhibition" makes it sound like an exhibit in a museum.  and makes it seem smaller than it really was;  it attracted millions of people.  I think this is worth further discussion.

message: There are some allegations of sexual abuse around former faculty of St. Augustine's College that have been edited in and out of the article. In the interest of meeting the standards around biographies of living persons, I think it's important that for such incendiary allegations, we should be extremely careful about sourcing.
