thread_title:  How large ist the number of medieval manuscripts?  

message: How is this the largest library in Asia? The infobox states it contains 37 million items, while the article on the National Diet Library in Japan state it contains more than 41 million items. The official website of the NDL gives a figure of 43.4 million items for 2017. This page states the NLC contained 37.6 million items in 2017. I don't know if there are more current numbers available, but at least in 2017 the NDL collection was larger than the NLC collection, so I question the validity of the statement in the lead section of this article stating the NLC is the largest library in Asia.

thread_title:  Contradiction 

message: Why were the fact tags removed without adding sources?  Adding two authers in French at the end of the page is not very helpful as I am not disputing the whole story, just the tagged issues.  This is what I want references for.
ANSWER: The fact that all references on the planet are not in English is an obstacle to English-only readers. Alas, the world is made of so many countries that have the barbaric habit of maintaining their own languages. I'm sorry it's not helpful to you. What would be helpful though is a correct spelling.
"I know for sure that in Arabic literature and history there is no mention for such a story (let alone a poet); before adding the tag, I did a search in the net and the results were 0 in Arabic and only this page was referenced in English. (google search)"
ANSWER: you must be quite the scholar to believe that you know every possible item of Arabic literature and history, "for sure". Once again, if you limit your research to what is referenced online, especially by google, and especially in English, you won't go far in research.
"It may very well be a French story, I have no idea; but having it in French does not mean it's Arabic.  So I hope you can put forward some references I can actually look up.  Maybe in English so that everyone can". --Maha Odeh 12:51, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:René Sergent

message: Are you sure of your information below, which seems based on the French Wikipedia article, is correct?
English statement:
"and Duveen Gallery, a large apartment building at the corner of 5th Avenue and 56th street in New York City (1909-1910, demolished 1953)."
French Wikipedia statement:
"et donne des dessins inspirés de Versailles et de Gabriel pour le vaste immeuble de New York, à l'angle de la 5e avenue et de la 56e rue (1909-1910, détruit en 1953), dont la réalisation est effectuée par un architecte local, Horace Trumbauer."
I looked this building up in the New York Times from 1912 when it was just being finished. The writing is ambiguous but it appears to have been three stories, fifty feet high and solely a gallery for Duveen Bros., not a large apartment.
I suggest you go to the New York Times site at www.nyt.com and search 
the two archives (pre- and post- 1881) for the "Duveen Building" and see if this clarifies the matter for you. In particular, are you confusing it with some other nearby building? See the two stories, also in the New York Times, from 1920 that also come up when you search "Duveen Building"..
Christopher Gray, who wrote his 2000 NYT column "Streetscapes" partially about the building, will undoubtedly be able to provide authoritative information. He may be reached at:

Talk:Rebecca Boone

message: Here are the conclusions that I found when researching Rebecca Bryan Boone's life (see citations within the article):
* Rebecca's father is Joseph Bryan. His father Morgan Bryan is sometimes given as her father, which is likely because Rebecca lived with her grandparents after her mother, Hester, died.
* Rebecca's mother was Hester (Simpson and/or Hampton) Bryan. (The thought that Alee Linville Bryan was her mother seems to have started with a geneaologist in 1922, who didn't know or didn't consider the information about Rebecca and Martha being raised by their grandparents.)
* She had a full sister, Martha.
* Rebecca and Martha went to live with their paternal grandparents when they were very young. They moved with their grandparents and continued to live with them after their father married Alice (Alee, Aylee) Linville in Augusta, Virginia. Rebecca had about nine half-siblings.
* The "fire hunt" story seems to be a legend and was not likely true.
* The "Boone's surprise" legend, where Rebecca was said to have believed Daniel was dead and had an affair with his brother Ned (or perhaps another Bryan family member) seems to be a legend. There's no clear information that points to Rebecca giving birth to a child that was conceived during Daniel's absence. The most discussed scenario was that Jemima was not Daniel's daughter, but she was born 11 months after he returned to Rebecca. 
When looking at reliable sources (vs. genealogy, blog sources), I have a hard time finding information about:
* Whether her mother, Hester, is Hester Simpson, Hester Hampton, or Hester (Simpson) Hampton. There is very little information about her mother.
* Whether Hester and Joseph had a son, born before Rebecca, named Joseph Bryan, Jr.
Questions:
* Does anyone have reliable information (books, journal articles, etc.), though, that conflicts with the conclusions? 
* Is there information that clarifies Hester's maiden and perhaps former married name? Could she have been Hester Linville, sister to Alice, who was married once before marrying Joseph?
* Is there information about the life of Joseph Bryan, Jr., born about 1737?
Thanks so much!–CaroleHenson (talk) 01:57, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: There is also some confusion about a Joseph Bryan who is said to have married a woman named Hester about 1772. I could not find any public records to substantiate this and there is no mention in reliable sources about Joseph having lost his wife and remarried later in life (but there's so little about him, that's not surprising).–CaroleHenson (talk) 19:16, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Still searching for info about Hester, but it seems that she was born about 1720 and died about 1740. Need good sources for that, though.–CaroleHenson (talk) 19:18, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

Talk:St John the Evangelist Church, Woodley

message: Change from St. John the Evangelist Church, Woodley to St John the Evangelist's Church, Woodley - This seems to be an odd change to have made, as the person after whom the church was dedicated is John. The word evangelist indicates which John.  Therefore, I think the article should be called either "St John's Church, Woodley" or "St John the Evangelist Church, Woodley".  Locally it's known as St John's Church, but the full name as on their notice board is St John the Evangelist Church, Woodley (certainly not Evangelist's).

But in it's reduced size, both here on the image page and on the 30 St Mary Axe article, it looks grainy and out of focus.

Talk:Triumph TR8

message: Why is the first picture of a fixed head coupe TR8 when only the drop head coupe (convertible) was a production item?
There were 400 FHCs built, but they were specifically for the Group 4 homologation of the TR7V8 rally car. Admittedly, that issue is complicated because 150 were built, then the car was approved, then 250 more were built to complete the requirement. However, according to Neal Eason-Gibson (when he was motorsport director at the RAC), the FIA allowed such homologation "on intent to manufacture" at the time, and that is documented in an issue of Motorsport magazine from April 1978 covering the problems Vauxhall had with the homologation of the Chevette HS. The FIA did require these homologation specials to be "meant for the normal sale" and required documentation. So that explains why they were sold off and not scrapped when the FHC TR8 didn't go into production, like the O-series engined TR7 were. It also explains any literature on the FHC TR8.
So, except in the section on motorsport, all the pictures in this article should be of convertibles.

thread_title:  VW Family 

message: I do not understand the information in the info box where it states that the width of the Sharan changed from 2150 mm preface-lift to 1810 mm post face lift.   That's over a foot of difference in anglo-american measures, and the car didn't change that much between facelifts.   Does anyone have a handbook handy?   Otherwise (by way of a clue) I see that the French wiki gives the width as 2150 mm whereas German wiki gives the width as 1810 mm.   Neither bothers to differentiate between pre and post face lift widths.   IF the width were 1810 mm the car should appear a little wider than it is high whereas if the width is 2150 mm then it should appear much wider than it is high.   (Height is also affected by whether or not you are looking at one with roof bars:  though they all fit under the bar in a standard urban car park.)  But there must, in this context, be a better way to arbitrate between the two widths stated:  Im sure one of them is wrong.   Charles01 (talk) 19:06, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
