Talk:Utagawa Kuniyoshi

message: The image of Musashi Miyamoto killing a monster said the monster was a Nue. This is wrong. It is clearly not a Nue. Also, it says he's killing a shark right in the picture, so I've changed it to "shark." Please keep it this way.

Talk:She-tragedy

message: Good article.  One question:  The Spectator as a female-oriented journal?  I had never thought that, given the contributors and the way it was the center of the Kit-Kat Club. Geogre 20:58, 10 Oct 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Comments

message: I think the following statements need some clarification: that the she-tragedies "demonstrated the psychology and behavior of women in their private sphere and presented it for public consideration, a new concept that emerged as women began to star in main roles instead of only supporting characters" and that "For the first time, plays were written that had a woman as the main character and that followed her experiences and emotions". 
These statements seem odd as currently worded, given that much earlier plays, such as Sophocles' Antigone, and Aeschylus' Agamemnon, have women in main roles and also explore their psychological lives.

Talk:Shipston-on-Stour

message: Can I just point out that the map used on this page, although from a 19th century Encyclopedia is a John Cary published in 1787?  I can tell because of the style used.  Compare this Cary map of Bucks dated the same year. -- Graham  ☺ | Talk 15:38, 11 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: The style is completely different, and the map looks nothing like any of Cary's. Have a look at the whole map  and compare to as many examples of cary's work as you like. This map was published in 1888. You will note, if you compare to to a Cary map of Worcestershire, that the county lacks the exclave of Iccomb (locally in gloucestershire), a large enclave of warwickshire and a smaller enclave of Herefordshire, all administratively affected in 1844. The style of the map is completely different, and rather more precise than Cary, too. It may have a long-evolved basis in a Cary work, but it shows the situation in 1888, not 1787. I can only suggest you look at a lot more Cary maps and get more of a feel for them; I've looked at dozens. 80.255 15:54, 11 Oct 2004 (UTC)

message: This category seems potentially highly problematic.  Was Stalin a socialist?  Is Tony Blair?

Also - there is a discrepancy where some offices are given in French, a temptation which I have largely resisted myself as this is the English Wikipedia - however I have not unilaterally altered this in case I caused offence

replies: text: Missouri Executive Order 44 →  – I believe the title "Mormon Extermination Order" better fulfills the criteria outlined in Wikipedia:Article titles.
# Recognizability and Naturalness: The use of the term "Mormon Extermination Order" extends beyond academic circles and has permeated popular culture, literature, and media. Moving would make it easier for readers to find and access the article, since it is a more intuitive and recognizable term
# Precision: "Mormon Extermination Order" accurately describes the content and significance of the historical event. The order called for the expulsion, or extermination, of Mormons in Missouri.
# Concision: The title "Missouri Executive Order 44" does not clearly distinguish the article from other executive orders issued in Missouri, none of which are notable enough for an article. "Mormon Extermination Order" specifically identifies the historical setting the event took place in. Gottagitgud (talk) 21:47, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Niels Ryberg Finsen

message: I know, most Finsen biographies call him a Dane, but this is not his true nationality. He was Faroese. Born in the Faroes and grown up there as the son of the gouvernor de:Hannes Finsen. His father was Icelandic and his mother a Dane, who lived in Iceland. Ofcourse, at this time Iceland and the Faroes were parts of Denmark, but this does not mean, that these nations were not existing with their languages and culture. Niels Finsen left the Faroes in the age of 14. It is almost impossible, that he was not speaking Faroese, independend from propably Icelandic and/or Danish spoken at home. Niels' brother Olaf lived over 50 years in Tórshavn (where he was born) and was a notable Faroese pharmacist and member of the town council (at least its president). In the Faroes, nobody doubts, that Niels Finsen is nobody less than their countryman. One of the most important streets in Tórshavn is the Niels Finsens gøta, where the Løgting is located and each year the Ólavsøka parade starts. He got thus the most prominent street of the country :) Arne List 14:44, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I've written that Finsen is Faroese/Danish, primarily because he was born in the Faroe Islands, but not to Faroese parents. His father was Icelantic, but went on to live in Denmark as Amtmand of Ribe. His mother was from Copenhagen, a large part of his family was from Copenhagen, he had many close relatives that lived in Copenhagen and finally he himself spent most of his life in Copenhagen - so Faroese/Danish. Saying that he was only Faroese would basing his nationality solely on his place of birth. Something I believe the many Faroese born in Denmark to Faroese parents would disagree strongly with, as following that logic they would not be Faroese. --Mecil 04:59, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Finsen was a Faroese, not a Dane

message: This is the second time that someone has made an edit claiming that Finsen was Icelantic and I'm wondering on why this is. Is it a common held belief in Iceland? I have presented the arguement that Finsen should be considered Faorese/Danish because he was born in the Faroe Islands, but spent most of his life in Copenhagen. His mother was Danish, his father lived in the Faroe Islands and later for a very long time in Denmark. To call him Icelantic because his father was born in Iceland is a bit of a stretch. Can anyone present a counterarguement? --Mecil 13:06, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Berkshire Downs

message: I always thought this was located above Kingsclere, in Hampshire and south of the River Kennet. The article 'Watership Down' confirms a Hampshire location. But this article defines the Berkshire Downs as north of the River Kennet.   
So either Watership Down isn't in the Berkshire Downs -or- we have the wrong definition of the Berkshire Downs. Thoughts -- Chris j wood 01:02, 11 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, I think I have resolved this one. I've noticed that recent maps seem to refer to the whole downland area around West Berkshire/North Hampshire/South Oxfordshire/North Wiltshire as the North Wessex Downs, after the AONB of that name. So rather and try and make rather vague differentiations, I've created an article on that and redirected the others at it. Now Watership Down fits perfectly. -- Chris j wood 20:44, 11 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Quartz (graphics layer)

message: Until now, under 'Quartz 2D & Quartz Compositor', the end of the first paragraph read...
In Mac OS X v10.4, Apple introduced Quartz 2D Extreme, which allows Quartz 2D to leverage supported GPUs for rendering. In Mac OS X 10.4, Quartz 2D Extreme is not enabled by default, as it offers few speed improvements in its current implementation.[4]
... with the citation at the end pointing to the Quartz section from Ars Technica's review of Tiger. The claim that 'it offers few speed improvements in its current implementation' is not at all supported by anything in that review, though -- in fact, the author claims exactly the opposite, and provides lots of numbers and bar graphs to back it up. I have no idea how somebody could have drawn any other conclusion.
So... i have changed that paragraph to the following:
In Mac OS X v10.4, Apple introduced Quartz 2D Extreme, which allows Quartz 2D to leverage supported GPUs for rendering. In Mac OS X 10.4, Quartz 2D Extreme is not enabled by default, because it may lead to video redraw issues or kernel panics.[4]

Talk:Current teachings of Prem Rawat/Archive 1

message: Seeing as I put the first paragraph together, I think I need to be clear about my intent in doing what I did. To summarize the above exchange, I put the phrase in about "from [Rawat's] point of view" simply as an overall blanket textual attribution, to try to eliminate the need for sentence-by-sentence attribution. However, the material that was added (mostly) includes sentence by sentence attribution anyway, so perhaps my effort was in vain. I think either the material's internal attributions or the first paragraph's overall attribution probably should be removed. Let me also be clear that, as also appears from the above exchange, I did not intend to suggest with my first paragrpah that this article can or must be restricted to PR's version only and no context or other viewpoint could be included. I do not have the authority to declare such a thing, nor would I want to. --Gary D 00:51, Oct 10, 2004 (UTC)
:That was always understood, Gary. The issue at hand is the need to have in WP an overview of the teachings as they are taught nowadays by PR. Readers need to be afforded that possibility, don't you think? In particular as the whole history and evolution from the early days through the 80's has been covered at length in the main article and the criticism article has plently of that stuff as well. In the context of the teachings as taught over the last ten years and today, I do not see much place for critics POV for the simple fact that they have not been students for decades and surely they can only speculate about the subject. Of course, if there is any criticism about the teachings as presented in the article, surely it needs to be included. Let's wait and see.--Zappaz 02:36, 10 Oct 2004 (UTC)
