Talk:Military history of the Netherlands during World War II

message: I think that one of the main causes of the famine was that the Germans confiscated food. Andries 17:53, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I know, blocking the transport routes between the agricultural lands and the Randstad both by allied advance in teh case of Brabant, and by teh Germans in an attempt to enforce their defenses (north) were the main cause of the famine.

message: This is a good article and I found it an interesting read. But I think it needs a clean up, some of the setences appear not to make sense (maybe it is just me).

thread_title:  Cleanup? 

message: This page seems to make the mistake of stating that Holland and the Netherlands are synonims. This is not the case. Holland is only a small part of the Netherlands in the west of the country. Using the word "Holland" in stead of "the Netherlands" is offensive to two thirds of the population of the Netherlands, who do NOT live in the region called "Holland". Thank you.

thread_title: Holland - Netherlands

message: This article has several issues. One is the use of peacock terms like "the Dutch army was considered a joke" or "most of them were in a pitiful state". This leads me to question neutrality of the statments, especially since they aren't sourced. Also, there is a repitition of information (it's mentioned that the Dutch army had old weapons twice) and other general problems in writing. I don't intend to put down those that worked on this article, but just believe it could use improvement. Homersmyid 22:46, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Okay, I'm not certain this author is really all that noted, or noteworthy, as I failed to find any books written by him in the UCLA online library catalog, nor in the Wellington city library catalog. - Eric 18:13, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure how they think Winnetka was never part of Canoga Park but it was when I lived there from 1962 to 1972. I lived at 20654 Lemay St and the rest of my address was Canoga Park, CA 91306. My phone number was 347-8196. I went to Fullfright Elementary School and John Sutter Jr. High. I never even heard of Winnetka the whole time I was growing up there. I do remember my parents reading in the paper that it was going to be subdivided. That was sometime shortly before my mother died there in 1972. My family moved away from there right after that. I remember because I have one of those memories like Marilu Henner. I remember most everything from my whole life.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.123.76.144 (talk) 03:51, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Any chance Revere could get it's own page?
:Most certainly. Seems like a good idea. I redlinked it and you can start the page here: Revere (comics). Don't worry about getting it 100% as other editors will spruce it up and get it in line with other entries. The important thing is content so be bold and get the ball rolling ;) .

Talk:Inter-American Development Bank

message: The article states:  "...borrowers will repay loans to the IDB before repaying other obligations to other lenders such as commercial banks."  But what happens when, as just now, the IDB forgives loans to poor countries?  Who gets stuck for the bad debt?  Doesn't this just make it easier for heavily indebted poor nations to repay private creditors like banks?  Will poor people really see any of it?  AlbertAlbericht 23:19, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Just wondering whether the stats here are accurate - I have a copy of General and Systematic Pathology, 5th ed, 2009 by Underwood and Cross that states 30-40% of incidences of lung cancer as adenocarcinoma. I don't want to change it in case the figures are wrong, but can anyone confirm this?
I believe they are referring to small cell Adenocarcinoma. This is the common form of the cancer. Large cell is the one that is classified as 10% in rarity. I hope this helps.Furballlady (talk) 22:16, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Pronunciation Guide? 

message: :The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 
The result of the move request was: page moved to Nicaea, Empire of Nicaea.  Consensus was to split.  Consensus was to move to Nicaea but there was no discussion on primary topic and moving Nicaea, which is a dab page, was not announced on that page nor discussed here.  So I see this move as the first step in making the split happen and allowing the other issues to be resolved.  Feel free to split out the portions on İznik correctly noting that the text was from this article.  Someone will also need to look at all of the links and make sure that they are pointing to the correct article.  Once that is done, feel free to list this as a move if the current name is not acceptable.  I'll note that a lot of the inbound links are from Nicaea (city) which appears to be ambiguous but this city could be the primary topic under that name.  Bottom line is that there were too many issues to resolve here and now. This discussion has been open too long so get started on the split and we can cleanup after.  If some simple admin cleanup is needed, leave a note on my talk page. Vegaswikian (talk) 18:37, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Rename to Nicaea 

message: Whose idea was it to move the article to "Nicaea, Empire of Nicaea"? The move request included no disambiguation, and even if it had, the one chosen is completely worthless. The Empire of Nicaea was a temporary successor state of Byzantium after the Fourth Crusade, and certainly not the defining geographical and historical factor about the city. "Nicaea in Bithynia" would have worked far better and be in keeping with placename disambiguation practice. However, Nicaea is certainly far better known the other locations of the name as the location of the Ecumenical Council that produced the Nicene Creed, and a disambiguation is not necessary: a clear case of WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. A rename per the original move request to simple "Nicaea" is in order here. I have already moved the dab page to Nicaea (disambiguation). Constantine   ✍  20:34, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Saks Fifth Avenue

message: According to the wikipedia article for the Hudson's Bay Company, Canadian ownership was brought back to the company in 2012, before Saks on Fifth was acquired by them. Unless the HBC was indeed not Canadian owned during the time of merger, I think that "Canadian-Founded Hudson's Bay Company" in the first paragraph should be replaced with "the Canadian Retailer Hudson's Bay Company" or something along those lines instead. Besides, the HBC was founded by the British centuries before Canada existed, so its incorrect anyway and should be changed. 2604:3D09:2078:E0:41AD:303A:D78C:D1A6 (talk) 05:10, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Canadian-Founded" 

message: Hi . I see that in July you made some edits to the Introduction to make that section sound "less promotional". However, some of your changes created a less accurate description of what Saks Fifth Avenue is today. It is true that the article began its life about the brick-and-mortar stores, which was a better reflection of what Saks Fifth Avenue was in the past. As time passed, however, the company's business changed. Saks Fifth Avenue is now a brand, which includes SFA stores and Saks (ecommerce), and this should be reflected in the Wikipedia article as it was before your edits. I don’t think the following request edits are promotional, but if you feel they are I am happy to discuss it with you.
*Please change the Introduction to the following, which more accurately describes what Saks Fifth Avenue is today, as explained above:
::Saks Fifth Avenue (originally Saks & Company; colloquially Saks) is an American luxury brand associated with Saks, a luxury ecommerce platform, and SFA stores, a chain of high-end department stores in North America. Founded by Andrew Saks, it is headquartered in New York City. The original Saks store opened in the F Street shopping district of Washington, D.C. in 1867. Saks expanded into Manhattan with its Herald Square store in 1902 and flagship store on Fifth Avenue in 1924. The chain was acquired by Tennessee-based Proffitt's, Inc. (renamed Saks, Inc.) in 1998, and Saks, Inc. was acquired by the Canadian-based Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) in 2013.
::, Saks Fifth Avenue's brick-and-mortar stores and e-commerce platform operate as separate companies, distinguished as SFA and Saks, respectively, with an exclusive partnership. Saks Off 5th, originally a clearance store for Saks Fifth Avenue, is now a large off-price retailer in its own right.
