Talk:Trocadero

message: The information at the top was about the battle, the area in Paris, and the London restaurant. All the info was also in each article. The so-called Trocadero (disambiguation) dab page did not include restaurants, and both were mostly disambiguation and also mostly a mess. It even said the battle closed in 1965 (or was it the area of Paris?), not quite clear. If the editors from the above 2005 discussion want an article detailing the relationship between the battle, the area nad the restaurant, why not add an article Trocadero (name origin) or the like? No, never mind, I'll do it, but really the two articles should just mention that the name comes from the battle. Chris the speller 04:02, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Organizational studies

message: Organizational studies and Organization studies are two underdeveloped articles that have both existed since 2004. What am I missing? Why are there two different articles with such similar names and content? Also note that Organization Studies redirects to Organizational behavior, where the hatnote says "For the academic field, see Organizational studies". I am proposing a merger of Organizational studies and Organization studies. If this is a good idea, which should be the target article? Please discuss.

Talk:TWERPS

message: "Some of the installments also came with a plastic dice."
Was it one die? or Were they dice?  Dice is plural, die is singular.  I would edit this but I don't know which is correct:  'a die or dice... also how many sides?  May I suggest " came with a six-sided die" or whatever is accurate, since role playing games often used dice of more or less than the standard six sides of a cube-shaped die.Pedant 05:48, 2004 Oct 24 (UTC)
'Dice' as singular is in at least as common use as 'die'. --Apeloverage 13:17, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That isn't the case. A Google search turns up 148,000 for "a die" ("chance" included and "hard" [for 'die hard'] excluded in search terms for accuracy), whereas there are 66,400 for "a dice" (same search terms), most of which aren't about singular dice. This is as it should be, since singular 'dice' is incorrect. Perhaps the people you know use singular 'dice' more often, but universally, it's far less common than 'die'. -kotra 00:40, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Britannica 

message: There are a few titles I'm not sure how to translate: 
*El año pasado por agua - I'd conjecture "Last year by the water". Do others agree?
::This is a tricky title to translate. "Pasado por agua" is the name for soft-boiled eggs, but the title applies to an autum with heavy rains. Maybe "The year that rained cats and dogs"?
*Agua, azucarillos y aguardiente - Agua of course is "Water", and there's not much to do with aguardiente except to explain it as a strong liquor. 
Azucarillos is a new one to me; obviously from azucar, "sugar", I'd guess "sweets" or "candies", but I wouldn't guess with confidence. 
::Yes, "azucarillo" was a sweet made from sugar, eggs and lemon, which was drinked dissolved in water. This could be loosely translated as "sugar cube" - so how about "Water, sugar cubes and spirits"?
*El dúo de la africana - Well, literally, "The Duo of the African (female)", but I'm sure that someone who knows the piece could explain more felicitiously.
:: Sure, this one is easy. "La Africana" is the opera "L'Africaine" from Meyerbeer, so this one is "The Duet from L'Africaine". Diego Moya 16:38, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Nero Claudius Drusus

message: This article cites almost no references for its content. I am not an expert in the area, otherwise I would make the changes myself. I know that ancient sources are reliable to widely varying degrees, and some discussion of that may be in order. Magic1million (talk) 05:43, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  More Citations Needed 

message: according to the article:
"Interestingly, soon before his death he wrote a letter to Tiberius complaining about the style in which Augustus ruled. This letter was delivered to Tiberius as he was with Augustus and Livia and when asked if he could read it was told he must read it out loud. He tried to avoid bad parts but Livia saw through his attempt and after reading ordered Drusus back to Rome."
there is no citation for it. it is depicted in I, Claudius. Augustus is not upset with the arguments Drusus makes against the extraordinary powers of Augustus and the obsequiousness of the senatorial order, but Livia clearly takes it as a direct attack on her influencing events from behind the throne as it were. I'm not sure if it's fictional or not, but as there is no source cited it may well be.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.168.167.231 (talk) 07:19, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

message: In the course of some recent edits, the following sentences were removed, perhaps by accident:
His family was granted the hereditary honorific title "Germanicus", which was given to his eldest son before passing to his youngest. Augustus later wrote a biography of him which does not survive. By Augustus' decree, festivals were held in Mogontiacum at Drusus' death day and probably also on his birthday.Suetonius, Claudius I.1.3

thread_title:  Website Inactive 

message: I’m interested to hear other editors’ views on this article’s hatnote pointing to the project-space essay Wikipedia:A nice cup of tea and a sit down, which was introduced by Special:Diff/954858826 — in particular, whether other editors think the essay should be linked from this mainspace article.
At the moment, my personal view would be that it shouldn’t, as my view (albeit a rough one and open to change) would be that only significant Wikipedia-space pages should be self-referenced in article-space. Given the relative lack of notability of the essay itself, I also think it’d probably be unlikely that people would be accidentally coming across this article, intending to visit the projectspace essay. I’d be interested to hear others’ views on it, though.

The only set of figures I have seen has a third order yet (though all three have similarities with the gods of prosperity tending to be on the right, happiness on the left and Bishamonten and Benzaiten near the middle). Is there a significance to the order, and are there traditions, or is it arbitrary?

message: "The Japanese invasions and occupations of Kiska on June 6 and Attu on June 7 shocked the American public, as the continental United States was invaded for the first time since the War of 1812. T"
I'm not from around there, but do you really regard an island well out in the sea as continental?
I appreciate they are on the same plate - I assume they are - but isn't the distinction between the continental USA and the rest that you can in general walk to the continental bits from each other, and you can in general not walk to the others?  Deleting "continental" wouldn't do any harm to meaning there, I think.  Midgley (talk) 10:54, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: A late reply, I was extremely busy this time last year so this slipped past me. "Continental" when referring to US states is generally understood to mean "everything but Hawaii" (although sometimes it is misused to mean "the contiguous 48 states").
