Talk:Romanian numbers

message: On a recent SCOLA news broadcast from Moldova, the anchor pronounced 2008 as douǎ mii uopt (note the nonstandard pronunciation of the 8).  I went back and listened to it again, and I'm sure she said this in at least two different parts of the newscast.  Is this a common pronunciation in Moldova?  I didn't see it mentioned in the article (uopt is mentioned as a dialect pronunciation, but only for a very small community that is nowhere near Moldova).  Comments, anyone?

thread_title:  Dialect pronunciations 

message: In a recent (on or about May 16?) broadcast of TVR's Telejurnal news program, it sounded very much to me like the weather reporter said treizeci şi un de grade (un, not unu).  I played it back again and again, and if she did in fact say unu, I confess I simply couldn't hear it.  Any thoughts?  Richwales (talk) 06:38, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It must be a mispronunciation. There is no way a native Romanian would ever mean to say treizeci şi un de grade. Also it is most probable that if she did pronounce it that way, just about all native listeners would think they heard treizeci şi unu de grade, with their brains doing the automatic correction. I guess both phenomena (the mispronunciation and the autocorrection) happen very often in every language. — AdiJapan 15:39, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Mary Hayley Bell

message: The sentence "In the run-up to World War II, Francis Bell was the Defence Security Officer in Singapore in 1936 MI5" is muddled and probably inaccurate. The date is either 1936 or "in the run up to World War II", not both. If he was a DSO he was not MI5.Royalcourtier (talk) 06:17, 4 February 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Defence security officer not MI5 

message: It should be noted that, for a number of years, the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) has carried an incorrect credit for Mary Hayley Bell — The Shrike (film). She is listed here, billed 17th in the cast listings. That credit actually belongs to the American actress Mary Bell who also appeared in the Broadway version of the play and whose photograph appears in Wikimedia Commons. The same photo is appended to Wikipedia's entry for The Shrike (play).
As of this writing, the article's section header "Stage/film roles" credits Mary Hayley Bell with appearing on Broadway in 1928, when she was 17 years old, and in 1935, although she lived with her parents in Hong Kong, Tientsin and Singapore until 1939. There is no indication that Mary Hayley Bell, whose acting roles were confined to a handful of small parts in England, ever performed in the U.S. There are two separate listings for the American actress Mary Bell in IMDb (here and here) as well as in the Internet Broadway Database (IBDb) (here and here). —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 23:49, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

Is that correct, even if you count a LaTeX editor as a TeX editor?
The article calls it a front-end to the LaTeX typesetting system,

To me, a TeX editor must be able to open (not import) any TeX document, modify
and save (not export) that document again. I'm not convinced that is what LyX does.

message: I don't have access to full copies of some of these sources, so there may be more in some of them:
*Coal Age Volume 84, 1979 - "Safety is a major consideration, especially because of the abundant methane and bad roof. In 1969, an explosion at the company's Guadalupe No.2 mine killed 153 men."
*Múzquiz crónicas de su historia, By Homero A. Rodríguez · 1996 - "de 1969 en minas de Barroterán, 153 mineros de toda la región mueren al explotar en cadena las minas 1 y 2 lammadas de Guadalupe;"
*EL CARBÓN ROJO DE COAHUILA:AQUÍ ACABA EL SILENCIO - (on example sentence) page 15, "Para la mayoría en México, la región carbonífera de Coahuila solamente existía en el imaginario popular porque recordaban alguna explosión en las minas, como la de Minas de Guadalupe (Barroterán, 1969), en la que murieron 153 mineros, y que fue portada de la revista Life." - claims the accident was on the cover of Life magazine, but I have been unable to verify that.
*The Accidental Century – Prominent Energy Accidents in the Last 100 Years - lists 176 fatalities, which disagrees with other sources
*http://herzog.economia.unam.mx/publicaciones/econinforma/pdfs/359/brucelish.pdf
*Mexico: miners trapped after explosion 22 February 2006
*The Lack of Other Jobs Traps Mexicans in Perilous Mines, Feb. 24, 2006, New York Times "The mines have taken their toll, with at least 115 major accidents, costing more than 1,300 lives. The largest disaster occurred in 1969, when an explosion trapped and killed 153 miners at the Barroterán Mine."
*This week in history: March 25-31 - gives some details on the accident
*RECUERDAN TRAGEDIA DE MINA GUADALUPE 1 April, 2018 - commemoration of accident
I will also note that I was a little worried by all the sources that just list the accident with few details that dated from some time after January 6, 2006 (date of article creation), but the 1979 and 1996 sources (and the news piece of the disaster commemoration) make me confident that this is not a case of WP:citogenesis.
