message: I think I found the source of the Chipperfield story 
in Martin Middlebrook's book "The Nuremberg Raid" (1973)
"serving .. as a navigator with 619 Squadron under his real name of FL Chipperfield"
Addinsell was 40 in 1944 totally impossible he served as RAF navigator. 
I suspect an research error by Middlebrook.

thread_title:  Chipperfield, part 2 

message: Roy's role was a bit overdone by someone...
"From December 1935 to January 1943 I orchestrated every bar of all Richard Addinsell's music for films and broadcasts. I must state firmly that I did not compose any of it. We developed a method wherby he would play his music on the piano (he could stretch a twelfth with either hand), and I would rapidly take it down to paper as he played. His contribution to the orchestrations was to say 'this is strings only, that is oboe, give that to the horns' and so forth, and I would eventually take my draft away and complete scoring in all details..."

replies: text: I am not very good looking these kinds of things up, but was it Roy Douglas that was the one who transcribed "I will be in love with you always" (song played twice in the 1945 film, "Blithe Spirit"), once in the middle of the film, and again somewhat toward the end, and which I assume was composed by Richard Addinsell, and which appears to be confused by some with Dolly Parton's "I will always love you" - - two entirely different songs?   The main page of this article would be improved if it contained a list of Richard Addinsell's songs.   216.99.198.239 (talk) 05:23, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Like other orchestrators/arrangers and "Musical Directors" (eg Muir Mathieson), Roy Douglas's work most often went unacknowledged in the film credits, thereby concealing their 'grey' contributions. In a boldly encyclopaedic spirit, I've tentatively started supplying this sort of information in the information boxes of some of the films Addinsell composed music for... waiting to find out how other film buff editors are going to react (yikes!).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by MistyMorn (talk • contribs) 19:02, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

text: I've reverted that until we discuss it a bit more. I don't think it makes sense to add 'election years' like the 1909+ ones. Prior to 1909 it seems to me that multiple elections were held throughout the year, every year. They don't seem to resemble the 1909+ elections in which elections for all electorates were all held on one date every 3 or 4 years.  I just want to make sure we decide how to handle that. -- Barrylb 09:40, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh dear. Does that mean that the Legislative Assembly, prior to 1909, had the same sorts of periodic elections that the Legislative Council does now? If that's the case, that makes things a lot more difficult. As for the data, however, one can't copyright facts, so I don't see a problem with republishing the data. Rebecca 09:55, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Talk:List of English words of Kurdish origin

message: According to etymonline, the word "tiger" is "possibly from an Iranian source" . Citation is needed from a reliable, neutral source (i.e. not Kurdish) in order to prove the words "tiger" and "tigris" are in fact from Kurdish and not another Iranian language. --334 14:47, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it seems weird that the word Tiger is claimed to be Kurdish and there is no source to support it. Also, maybe we should put this page up for deletion, its only 3 words, two of which may not even be Kurdish. Whats the point?Khosrow II 15:05, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The Oxford English dictionary gives "Gr. tigris, a foreign word, evidently oriental, introduced when the beast became known" for the etymology of the word "tiger."  It is, of course, completely unrelated to the word Tigris, which has nothing to do with the proposed etymology, tij "sharp."  The name of the river is attested already in the Sumerian texts and has a perfectly acceptable Sumerian etymology, even if it may have passed into Greek (and thence to the western languages) through Persian. --Leo Caesius 14:08, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I find it deeply offensive that you keep reinserting the term "Anglo-Irish" to describe Irish Anglicans, as if they were something less than real Irishmen.

replies: text: I realise that Protestants in the Republic don't like the label "Anglo-Irish" and I can see why thay don't. But the phrase "deeply offensive" is perhaps an over-reaction. After all many Protestants in the North refer to themselves as "Ulster Scots" and I'm not sure why "Anglo" is more offensive than "Scots".

message: Seeing as how the F-22 uses the F119-PW-100 variant, and in fact its what you're directed to on the Pratt & Whitney website, I think its worth mentioning in the article's text. Also, I have read several published sources that state the maximum thrust of the F119 to be 39,000 lbs. I'm not sure if this is classified, or simply an early and inaccurate estimate. Either way, I think we can all agree that the thrust of the F119 is greater than 35,000 lbs., so I think "+"  should be added after "35,000" under "Performance."
