message: Karl Marx’s ‘Address of the International Working Men's Association to Abraham Lincoln’ was presented to Charles Francis Adams in London on January 28, 1865.
Adams replied to Marx on the same date: ‘I am directed to inform you that the address of the Central Council of your Association, which was duly transmitted through this Legation to the President of the United States, has been received by him.’
I don’t see how the President could have received the document on the same date. (The transatlantic telegraph was still a few years off.) Valetude (talk) 10:21, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

thread_title: Bot-created subpage

message: "On 1881, President Chester A. Arthur nominated Gray to a vacancy on the Supreme Court of the United States; he was confirmed the following day, replacing Nathan Clifford."
This is at odds with what the source for the article claims.
I quote the full timeline there:
"
President Chester A. Arthur nominated Gray to the Supreme Court of the United States on December 20, 1881, and the Senate confirmed the appointment on January 8, 1882. Gray served on the Supreme Court for twenty years. He submitted his resignation on July 9, 1902, to become effective on the appointment of his successor.
"
I wonder where this "following day comes from. The first part of the sentence does not ven mention a day.--Paul Pieniezny (talk) 09:00, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  What's with the unsourced quotes? 

message: Hey, the second paragraph of the Early Life section in this article appears to be problematic. The first sentence of this paragraph very much reads as an unexamined summary of this part of her early life story based solely on her own point of view about the circumstances of the historical context. There are some troubling and potentially inflammatory historical arguments, particularly in regards to the activities of the Japanese in Hong Kong. It appears to display a clear bias and seems to be couched in the kind of hyperbolic claims that are shared within a national group. Also, it reads as clearly the work of someone writing in English not as their first language, with grammatical errors and a telltale lack of clarity.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.187.18.221 (talk) 21:55, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed re: Japanese in Hong Kong. Sexual slavery in WWII was certainly present, but also well documented.

Talk:OC Transpo Route 61

message: In 1999, the 96 used to be similar to what the 87 does now (at least West of downtown). Then it was merged with the 97, leaving the 96 slot vacant for one (or two?) years, then reintroduced in its current configuration. If someone has old route maps from that period, it would be encyclopedic to include that historical note. -- RealGrouchy 00:49, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
Talk:OC Transpo Route 97

message: While I felt that the recent AfD was somewhat rude, there was a suggestion on the 95 thread to "standardize" as a UK bus route has...not a bad suggestion.....Regarding route 97, there have been a couple of prior incarnations of this routing since the Transitway started in the 80s..perhaps some chronology would be good, as well as the present 97.

Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:33, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: Balance in lead section

message: This article goes from listing him as "Anglo-Irish", to "Ulster Scots", to:
 "Like many other Scots 'Planters' in Ulster during the seventeenth-century, the Sloane family were almost certainly of Gaelic origin, Sloane probably being an anglicisation of Ó Sluagháin."
What does this even mean? The "Ulster Scots" page describes them as having roots mainly in the Scottish Lowlands, not Gaelic Ireland. Sloane appears to have been Gaelic-Irish on his paternal side, and English on his mother's side, like many other Irish Anglicans of his day. Please provide an appropriate cite for the "Ulster Scots" claim or I will remove it. Thanks.Jonathan f1 (talk) 13:43, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Autism Society of America

message: Having trouble verifying this statement:
:The organization has promoted pseudoscience about autism, such as vaccine denialism
The linked source https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/naturopaths-and-the-anti-vaccine-movement-if-you-cant-dazzle-em-with-real-science-baffle-em-by-getting-a-law-passed/ mentions the Autism Society exactly once, and only parenthetically:
: (Lynn Redwood, President of SafeMinds, and Lee Grossman, president and CEO of the Autism Society of America, both of whose organizations buy into the scientifically discredited notion that vaccines cause autism)
That source does not seem credible to me: it's a ranty blog post. 
Some other sources from a quick Google search:
* https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/naturopaths-and-the-anti-vaccine-movement-if-you-cant-dazzle-em-with-real-science-baffle-em-by-getting-a-law-passed/, purportedly quoting an ASA press release from February 2005 that I can find no evidence of elsewhere on the web, and on an extremely sketchy website. 
* https://qctimes.com/news/local/vaccine-additive-banned-in-iowa/article_94bd6c34-53eb-51c9-a52a-047c92bfe600.html , from December 2005, "... the Autism Society of America says there is no known cause for autism, but that it most likely is genetic."
* https://www.musictherapy.org/a_message_from_executive_director_lee_grossman/ , a 2019 statement from (I believe the same) Lee Grossman in which he says "I support the scientific evidence and consensus statements that vaccines do not cause autism." 
* http://www.autism-society.org/news/statement-of-the-autism-society-of-america-on-vaccine-safety/ , a 2019 statement from the ASA saying the same
It's possible the ASA (and/or Lee Grossman) changed their position at some point, but I'm struggling to find a reliable source that they ever did promote vaccine denialism. -Apocheir (talk) 17:09, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

If this is true, the main Universal Music Group page may also need correcting, since it lists Brushfire as a sub-label as well.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.162.68.181 (talk) 11:37, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
