If, as a contributor, you are, or are closely tied to, the title subject, please refrain from direct editing (see WP:OR).

Talk:Lost Trail Pass

message: I seem to recall that the pass got its name because the 19th-century surveyors plotting the border between the Montana and Idaho territories, who were supposed to follow the Continental Divide, lost the divide there and followed another ridge line for hundreds of miles before realizing their mistake.  The powers that be decided to make the surveyed line the border, and the pass was named for the mistake.  Any truth to this? Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 17:53, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Chukwuma Nzeogwu

message: Neutrality disputed:  the author refers to Nzeogwu's coup, in which the senior members of the government were massacred, as a 'glorious moment'.  Plainly, murdering unarmed civilians was an act that many would believe the perpetrators should not be proud of.  Additionally, the article also suggests (without evidence), that in retrospect western governments prefered a Gowon to a Nzeogwu.  No evidence is cited to suggest that the west had any role in any of the Nigerian coups of the 1960s.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pugnaciousignatius (talk • contribs) 17:46, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  While the argument for what precipitated after the failure of the "Five Majors" attempted revolution can be made on the basis of the events that transpired, nihil obstat the same argument can be vice-versa. What remains is what we know, Nzeogwu (hate him or love him) was a disciplined highly-intelligent officer - as eluded by his military colleagues who would've rather killed himself for his own beliefs (as alleged by his sister) than be captured - true hallmarks of ancient chivalry (which are rare to come by today). Be that as it may, the events of 66' set during the twilight of Decolonisation of Africa; and admist the chaos which independent Africa had to go through ranging from the Congo (where Nzeogwu saw action) to the multi-faceted continental crisis of national identities and finally Apartheid down south, it could be argued that Nigeria had it better than most other countries compared with say Algeria which fought a brutal seven-year independence war with its French colonial masters. You might bring up the Nigerian Civil War to counter that hypothesis, however I'd reply by saying in the course of nation-building history has shown that a civil war can serve as glue for a fractured society: whether it be the United States after the American Civil War or the rise of the Soviet Union after the Russian Civil War - as unimaginable as it seems, the deaths of millions of ones own citizens resonates deeply and creates an invincible aura which endures the spirit of times. Dont get me wrong, I am in no way in support of Nzeogwu and his barbaric crusade of January 1966, and also not a advocating a revanchist agenda. However, I insist that calm and mental clarity be considered as the discussion is one which needs to be handled with reason, as opposed to emotions.

Talk:Claes G. Ryn

message: The list of students Ryn has mentored isn't particularly controversial as these things go, but it lacks any citations, so it's not clear whether every student is notable and worth mention - not to mention whether they're actually former students. And if students, were they dissertations students, or just students mentored in some other way? In any event, this laundry list needs a little attention. When I have a chance, I'll see if I can find any sources. But should the whole section be truncated in the meantime? Perhaps just a sentence on the most notable students?

thread_title:  Students 

message: Added link to existing Wikipedia article on 'Dushu' magazine. Added exact quote on notability of 'Dushu' magazine. (I left the reference in 'raw' form as 'https://newleftreview.org/issues/ii49/articles/yongle-zhang-no-forbidden-zone-in-reading'; someone can probably improve it to a Wikipedia standard format.) To improve readability, I added two section headers "Research and Teaching" and "Influence in China". I, too, agree that the student list as it currently is in a poor format. It should be re-written and shortened to identify the most notifiable students and the exact nature of his "mentor-ship". I don't know this field so I am unqualified to make these improvements. Hopefully another editor will be able to complete this task.  Seki1949 (talk) 07:16, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Camas prairie

message: I know it's not listed on USGS, because I already looked at Topozone's search index, and it's been years since I've been down I-5, but I recall an exit in the Vancouver WA area for Camas Prairie; or maybe Something-else Prairie I guess; but could it be a subdivision/neighbourhood name that's not indexed on USGS (like many in most cities)?  I know I've seen Camas on an exit sign for sure, and I know I've seen something-Prairie; maybe I'm fuzzy on remembering them combined.  There are camas patches in BC, too, but because they tend to be in mountain country "prairie" is hardly the word that would be used ;-)Skookum1 06:28, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
