Talk:Quintus Tullius Cicero

message: Cicero was the cognomen of Quintus Tullius's brother Marcus Tullius. It was a nickname specific to him, meaning "Chickpea". Maybe Quintus began to use it in later life, as many did.

message: Hi, sorry for my english. In this links there is a copy of a well known sport diary of barcelona the day after of the final match. There is a interview to WILLIAM MILSNE, (i think in fact is Billy Milne from arsenal the manager of the team and the article says its Arsenal manager... not the chelsea manager named in the article.
And the BARCELONA manager at the time of the final matches was the mitic Helenio Herrera, also interviewd in this link, not DOMENEC BALMANYA, fired from the club months ago, the first edition of the FARIS CUP was very large, during 3 years, DOMENEC was the manager at the start of the torunament, but at the time of the final matchs im sure (and here is a confirmation) was HELENIO HERRERA...
I can imagine something similar happens with the LONDON XI managers, there was different managers during the tournament.

For example, aspirin is now a general moniker for acetylsalicylic acid based pain relievers when originally it was a trademarked product name. the word "ass" originally denoted donkeys but, due to common usage, can also now mean, "A vain, self-important, silly, or aggressively stupid person."

thread_title:  Edited the entire article 

message: This section needs to be removed or heavily revised. As written, it's incorrect and misleading. The hourglass figure is considered desirable, but fashion designers do NOT design clothes that fit the hourglass figure. They design clothes in an hourglass silhouette that creates the illusion of an hourglass figure.
The one reference quoted to support the idea that fashion designers "design clothes that fit the hourglass body shape" is the link to https://www.universityoffashion.com/blog/tag/hourglass-figure-type/
If you read the article, it actually says that "most famous for the hourglass silhouette is Christian Dior and his New Look, as seen above. Nipped in at the waist, and balanced at the shoulder and the hip, many designers have worked to achieve this ideal including Charles Frederick Worth, Azzedine Alaia and of course, Alexander McQueen."
The hourglass silhouette is the shape of the CLOTHING, not the shape of the woman the clothing is designed to fit. The clothing is designed to create the illusion of an hourglass body shape.
George Simonton, a professor of fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City is quoted as explaining: "The silhouette fools the eye with its shaping and construction". https://www.realsimple.com/beauty-fashion/clothing/wardrobe-basics/build-wardrobe-style-fashion-icons#principle-define-an-hourglass-silhouette
Also refer to the the Wikipedia article on Clothing sizes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clothing_sizes that includes size charts that show that most clothing is designed to fit a rectangle or a spoon (pear) body shape, which are the most common body shapes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_body_shape

Talk:Theodosius of Bithynia

message: Tripoli is in Lybia and not in Bithynia. The name Theodosios of Tripoli is a confusion coming from the article von Theodosios in the byzantinian Suda.--Meilenweit (talk) 13:55, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Tripoli, Bithynia

message: Theodosius in the past often claimed to be from "Tripolis", based on a mistake from the Suda Lexicon (as of recently, quoted in the article.) However, the Suda Lexicon does not explicitly say which Tripolis this was supposed to be (there were several cities/regions by that name at the time – it's Ancient Greek for "three cities"), and the intended one is not immediately clear from context. I didn't do any kind of exhaustive search, but I can't find any clear scholarship about it, and there is some ambiguity here. Nonetheless, it is very useful to readers to be able to click through a link to Tripolis which explains that Tripolis or Tripoli means "three cities" and was the name of several historical (and modern) places.
User:Onel5969, apparently one of Wikipedia's most pedantic petty bureaucrats, insists on repeatedly removing this disambiguation link, despite its obvious benefit to readers and benefit to the encyclopedia project, based on an exaggerated misquotation of Wikipedia's manual of style. He has already blown past the three revert rule (User:Onel5969: if you want a policy page about basic Wiki etiquette please carefully read WP:BRD, and note the crucial "discuss" step; it's not BRRRR, stop edit warring), and in addition to refusing to engage on the talk page, is now making arrogant threats.

Talk:Patty Larkin

message: Earlier when this article was included in two new categories, "Lesbian musicians" and "LGBT people from the United States", I reverted the edit simply because it was unsourced.  Although a fan of Ms. Larkin, I had missed that particular fact about her and thought that it should require a source before placing it there; after all, there is a difference between "out" and "outed".
Sources were provided, but now it simply a statement in the article, "She is openly lesbian".  I have no problem with that fact, but is the statement itself germane to the article?  It seems to be irrelevant to the rest of the article, and should either be elaborated upon as to its particular importance, integrated into another portion of the article to define its relevance to her music, or removed.  As is, it seems like a trivia factoid.
--  Couillaud (talk) 16:44, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that it's sort of a hanging factoid.  This is not to say it's unimportant, but any long-time fan of Larkin might not have any idea about her sexual orientation, as it doesn't seem to be a subject of her songwriting or any of her public conversation.  I'm still fine with the article's categorization, but unless there's at least a second and third sentence to add about this, I don't think it's relevant.  Mitchell k dwyer (talk) 18:15, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Then until such time as someone can come up with something specific (like it being a large influence on her art or part of her political activism), it should be treated as a "hanging factoid" (I like that term, much better than my own "trivia factoid"), and I have moved the reference to External links (it's a good review of Red=Luck) and removed the single sentence.  -- Couillaud (talk) 19:50, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Publius Licinius Crassus (consul 97 BC)

message: T.R.S. Broughton, in his standard work The Magistrates of the Roman Republic, does not give "Dives" as an additional cognomen for this P. Licinius Crassus. The consul of 205 BC does have this cognomen; but it is debatable whether the cognomen was used for even the most famously rich Licinius Crassus (Marcus, the triumvir). One scholarly article on this is B.A. Marshall, "Crassus and the Cognomen Dives," Historia 22 (1973) 459–467. I don't necessarily put this forth as the most authoritative source, but as a place to start. Matthias Gelzer thought the consul of 97 did use the Dives; others have disagreed. This is a far less important point than the general chaos surrounding the organization of the Licinii Crassi in Wikipedia, to which this article contributes some clarity.
