thread_title: Untitled

message: The date 19 March 1901 has been there since almost the inception of the article.  Can this be confirmed?  His IMDB entry says it was on 29 March.  --  JackofOz (talk) 01:49, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Date of birth

message: Can it be confirmed what precisely his judicial appointment was in Hampshire? Prior to the Courts Act 1971, County Quarter Sessions were presided over by a barrister (sometimes a County Court or High Court judge: occasionally even an appellate judge), chairing a bench of magistrates, and Borough Quarter Sessions (i.e. for Boroughs which had the privilege of holding their own sessions) were held before a Recorder, sitting alone (who seems usually to have been a barrister rather than a judge). If Ewen Montagu had been appointed to Hampshire, he would have been styled 'Chairman of Quarter Sessions'; if to one of the Boroughs within Hampshire which held their own Quarter Sessions (Andover, Bournemouth, Portsmouth, Southampton or Winchester) then he would have been styled a 'Recorder'.Ntmr (talk) 01:03, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Judicial Appointment

message: The post-nominal should have been KC instead of QC, I have made an edit to that effect. 
When he took silk, the UK had a King, therefore KC. Furthermore, last time I checked Charles III was a King, so even by modern standards (which post nominals do not follow), it should be KC.   128.151.150.25 (talk) 21:59, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: I fear your thinking is amiss. True, there was a king when he took silk, so he was initially a KC. Then George VI died and Elizabeth II became monarch, so all KCs automatically became QCs. He died in 1985, while Elizabeth was still reigning, so he remains QC forever. We don't keep on changing dead silks' postnominals every time there's a change of monarchical sex. That happens only for live silks. So, Montague was a KC who became a QC, end of story. -- Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 02:57, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Zero-product property

message: I hope someone will explain why this article exists.  Most of it seems to belong in the article on zero divisors.  The basic concept from the advanced-math viewpoint, as far as I know, is zero divisors, not "zero-product property", which is just a name for the property of not being a zero divisor.  Moreover, the name "zero-product property" is not standard; in fact, as far as I know, there is no generally accepted name for this property.  Usually this property of a ring is called "having no zero divisors".  Does someone has something to say about this?  Maybe I'm just very old fashioned.  (Quotation.) Zaslav (talk) 06:08, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: At least abstractly, the zero product property described on this page could be a more general concept than zero divisors, which are explicitly tied to rings. Perhaps other algebraic structures possess basically the same property. All the examples from the page are in rings, so unless this is actually the case, I agree that having two pages is unhelpful. 67.158.43.41 (talk) 09:06, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

text: This page has the nice property that people like me can understand most of it despite being ignorant about abstract algebra, including being ignorant about rings.  (I'm not proud of the ignorance, you understand; I'm just grateful that education about the zero product property was accessible.)  The section on "Application to finding roots of polynomials" is particularly welcome in answering the always-present question "Why should I care?"  In this case, I should care because the zero product property justifies the root-finding process discussed in eighth grade.  So without deterring anyone from improving and merging articles, I hope that the welcome, segmented education can be maintained.  DavidHolmes0 (talk) 02:08, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

Talk:List of beetle species of Great Britain

message: :(copied here from Stemonitis' talk page as a memory jogger)
I think splitting off some of the larger (super-?)families is probably a good idea; the page is already beyond the recommended article size. I also have some doubts about some of the common names; instances where "… depressum" and "… confusum" are calqued as "depressed …" and "confused …" always strike me as entirely artificial. It is not to be expected that very many beetle species have common names, but it's a lot of work to try and find out which ones are really used. --Stemonitis 14:47, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm confident that the Kinks song is not about this individual. The song comes from 1967, when David Watts MP was 16, and the nature of the lyrics make it very unlikely they can have been written about him.

message: There is a reference, that Vallabhacharya was born in Champaranya. The place mentioned is now called Champaran and it is part of East Champaran in Bihar. However, here it is mentioned that Champaranya is in Chattisgarh. I doubt the veracity of the fact. Secondly, Chattisgarh is totally towards the south of Bihar where as the pilgrimage was undertaken to Vaishali region. I am just browsing it and after counter checking the facts, I will myself correct.

Category talk:Argentine people of Basque descent

message: Why is this page being placed in categories suggesting it is part of an Argentine 'diaspora'?
The articles listed in this category are Argentines of Basque descent. I cannot think of any Argentines who have become notable in the Basque Country, it is all the other way round. The category, vastly underpopulated, has a President of Argentina, a Mayor of Buenos Aires and Che Guevara, who I can't believe ever visited Spain/France, although you can make a tenuous description of his leaving Argentina as part of a diaspora (his pan-Americanist outlook didn't respect borders though). These are immigrants or descendants of immigrants, not emigrants.
Can you please discuss this further here before changing? Perhaps we need a separate category for Argentines of Basque descent and Basques of Argentine descent but I severely doubt it. Mtiedemann 18:55, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok I now realise that the last change was not a complete revert, but I still think it too complicated and largely unnecessary to have each category 'looking both ways' and in common English parlance, surely they would be Basque-Argentines or Argentine-Basques. In addition, I think 'diaspora' is too strong (ie POV) a term, and many of those that left under the proceso, etc returned. Let's not confuse the terms. Mtiedemann 19:04, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I have seen the whole "Nero from DMC" thing being removed, and while I understand why this may have seemed like vandalism, please understand that as of DMC5, it -has- become an integral part of Nero's character, in terms of both identity and plot. In-game, he is called "dead weight" very early on by Dante (the second big protagonist and series mains character) and resents the latter over it throughout the majority of the story.
The fact that it was added to this page was not for the sake of memes, it is literally associated with the character in utmost importance. Making this page semi-protected over assumed "trolling" because of a lack of information from moderation is utterly petty when the addition is unanimously agreed on. There is no reason why this page shouldn't mention Nero, especially since Dante's "dead weight" quip was a big marketing push for the game in the first place, ever since the earliest leaks and the third major trailer. 96.127.235.174 (talk) 04:18, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
