Talk:Deconsecration

message: This article was written because I found the subject interesting and could not find good definitions for the term beyond the Catholic Church. It's my first attempt at an article, so please be gentle with your criticism but feel free to tell me what I did wrong either here or on my talk page. I'm hoping this endeavor will be a positive learning experience for me. Getting my feet wet as it were. I look forward to watching the evolution of an article from it's inception. badmonkey 23:19, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Improvement needed

message: What is actually involved in deconsecration? Some kind of ceremony or just a striking from the records? I'm surprised by the last sentence that says it's a protestant practice not known in the Catholic Church. My intuition tells me it ought to be the other way round: I can imagine protestants thinking of their places of worship as simply a building where the faithful gather to hear the word of God, and if it no longer serves that function it is simply a building, while I imagine Catholics to be more concerned with the sanctity of spaces based on their having been consecrated. I have heard that holy relics are placed in most or all Catholic churches when they are built or consecrated. Presumably these are removed? If they aren't, wouldn't whoever is using the building as an office or nightclub or whatever be desecrating the place, in the Catholic imagination? Beorhtwulf (talk) 22:55, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Talk:J. Storer Clouston

message: I request Mais oui! to desist from continually changing “Orcadian” to “Scottish”.
“Orcadian” is a perfectly legitimate term widely used to describe all those people I have contributed articles about – as Mais oui! would discover if he took the trouble to read some books on Orkney.  For example:
: The Orkney Book  edited by Donald Omand
: The New Orkney Book by Shearer, Groundwater and John D. Mackay (this is school textbook from the 1960s)
: An Orkney Anthology, edited by J.D. Robertson
As an instance, the introduction to the last of these books begins with words: “Ernest Walker Marwick was a distinguished Orcadian ..”  My article on Ernest Marwick is one of those where Mais oui! has been determined to constantly change “Orcadian” to “Scottish”.
Furthermore, the term “Orcadian” gives extra information that is lost if it is replaced by “Scottish”, analogously to the information that would be lost by replacing “Scottish” by “British”,  or “British” by “European”.  Therefore, Mais oui!’s changes are diminishing the quality of the information in Wikipedia. 
As noted on the “Orkney people stubs” discussion:  
:“Comment- Mais_oui! has a history of going through articles changing "British" to "Scottish"- so it isn't very surprising he is opposing the changes you made. Astrotrain 19:41, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I believe his cousin Colonel John Graham of Fintry (joined the 90th Regiment when it was raised by Thomas), hailed from Fintry in Dundee only a kilometre or so from the Balgowan in Dundee.

message: We have only one scientific reference - Freedman 2014 - for the origin of the Saluki, and that is in the Fertile Crescent. I grow tired of the ongoing Arabian versus Persian changes made to the lede of this article, that use Freedman 2014 as the source. The perpetrators are clearly located in Iran and Arabic countries, based on the results of Geolocate. I encourage this article's watchers to be a bit more diligent and immediately challenge uncited nonsense when it appears in the first paragraph. William Harris • (talk) • 11:22, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rivalry 

message: Capitalization of breed name should be standard on this page Greyhound/Sloughi/Whippet/Saluki.
The information on 'physical capacity' is either trivial or incorrect.
Saluki and Whippet speed over distance should be measured, hence known to be 'faster over longer distance', not 'thought to be.'
Whippets are most decidedly not faster over longer distances than Greyhounds.
Breed cardiovascular properties, maximal oxygen consumption, muscle fiber properties etc. promote speed and endurance; padded feet not so much. 
Hawks and falcons used in conjunction with sighthounds do not gouge the eyes out of their prey; they strike at the head of the prey, confusing and slowing it. --Richard Hawkins (talk) 22:22, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Breed name capitalization & physical capacity 

message: I was looking for info on genetic weaknesses, since it's kind of a given for any "pure" breed. The article doesn't straight up say  "salukis are more likely to get X versus a mongrel." Maybe the history of this breed is long enough that it's been strengthened? Idk. All I found quickly was https://www.pets4homes.co.uk/pet-advice/saluki-dog-hereditary-health-and-average-longevity.html which first states everything's good, then vets say breeders should watch for hip dysplasia, then gives a list of possible genetic conditions. I don't know enough about the breed to reflect reality, and it doesn't give a percentage of incidence vs mongrels. If anyone is interested in doing a better job on health issues I would be grateful.

message: Certain portions of this article seem to violate WP:NPV, especially in the repeated claims of Emperor Duzong abandoning his duties. Some other examples of this include claims that his "intelligence was lower than a normal person", that his attempts to inquire into the state of the nation were merely a facade, and that historians find his ascension to the position of heir confusing. Although I do not know enough about this subject to properly correct this article, in my opinion it seems to break WP:NPV and so should be changed by someone with knowledge on this subject.

thread_title:  History of the text after initial composition? 

message: According to Victor Spinei: "An entry in the so-called Suidas lexicon drawn up at some point during the second half of the tenth century, claims that Dacians were now called Pechenegs. This can only mean that the Pechenegs werre ruling over the lands of ancient Dacia, which were inhabited at that time by Romanians." (). Consequently, the Suda itself clearly identified the Pechenegs as Dacians; therefore, the statement in the article about the Suda's reference to the Romanians under the ethnonym "Dacian" is clearly misleading. I assume, that that statement is actually an original synthesis of sentences from the cited scholarly work (Brezeanu's book).
