Talk:Y. B. Rowdy

message: The move deserves discussion and reconsideration. The subject of this article was known by a name that was translated into English as "Rowdy." The initials "Y.B." appear to have been assigned later as a pun ("Why be rowdy?") and we need to establish whether this was a name the subject actually used or chose to be known by. According to the Find-A-Grave link, his military tombstone is engraved "Y B ROWDY" but his medal citation and all other (scanty) online references refer to him as "Rowdy" or "Sergeant Rowdy." --ℜob C. alias ALAROB 13:35, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

message: I have removed lengthy excerpts from 19th century newspapers. We already cover Rowdy's cause of death in the article based on a more recent and more scholarly source.

Talk:Mexica

message: I can't remember the source now, but in searching for the origin of the word "mexica" I remember running across a Spanish reference detailing how a foreign group (Maya?) called the people of the Valley of Mexico "Mexica."  I believe this to make sense to me.  In this sense, the Tenochca, and every other Nahuatl speaking political group, such as Azcapotzalco, Xochimilco, etc, are all Mexican.  This may even be true of earlier cultural/political groups, such as Teotihuacan or Cuicuilco, etc.  Thus, it is very likely -- and there seems to be no evidence to the contrary -- that there was a pervasive Nahuatl-speaking cultural group which dominated pre-Spanish Valley of Mexico, who were synonymously known as "Mexica," and later as "Mexicanos" by the Spanish.  "La lengua Mexicana" is definitely Nahuatl.  But "Aztec" is not a historical term -- it is a meta-historical term coined by a later historian (Humbolt?) who latches-onto a mythological/historical origin of the Tenochca and thus coins the term.  But, since "Aztec" is not a technical term, it may be used to refer to many groups, as it often is.  The way I see it, the Tenochca are the people of the state of Tenochtitlan; Mexica (or Mexicanos) are the larger Nahuatl speaking cultural group in and around the Valley of Mexico, and those culturally linked to these groups, such as at Colima, Atitlán (Central America,) Cempoala, etc., and "Aztec" is a Western concept of any unspecified Mexica group.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rbarka (talk • contribs) 07:16, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

message: I've removed a one-liner, added by an unregistered user, that Vered gave a recital at "the prestigious St. Paul's School" in early 2009.  As one who attended schools that, I imagine, must be hopelessly less prestigious, I blush to confess that I am not familiar with that institution and don't immediately see why one recital there bears singling out from the others Vered has offered over the course of her career.  That said, I'd be happy to see the reference return if appropriately fleshed out to explain its notability.  Alternatively, perhaps it could serve as a springboard for listing various notable recitals by Vered. Drhoehl (talk) 00:43, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

*High levels of spelling variation
*Incredible skill with blank verse and crowd scenes
*Neutral writing, as compared to the popular Queen's Men Acting company, who were known for anti-Catholic propaganda plays.
*Deep knowledge and exploration of the human mind, which was unprecedented in his day.

thread_title:  Two points 

message: Just a note to other editors (and to help clarify for the admins dealing with the CSD tags)... After a move against consensus (from Shakespeare's style to William Shakespeare's style) back in 2012/2013, Tom tried to fix this with a two-step move back via Wm Shakespeare's style. I'm unclear on the details of what happened, but in any case we ended up with the following mess ("name → name" indicates a redirect) :
*Shakespeare's style (main article, all good)
*William Shakespeare's style → Shakespeare's style
*Wm Shakespeare's style → Shakespeare's style
*Talk:Shakespeare's style → Talk:William Shakespeare's style
*Talk:William Shakespeare's style (this talk page, different name than main article)
*Talk:Wm Shakespeare's style → Talk:Shakespeare's style
In order to fix this I've tagged the current Talk:Shakespeare's style (the redirect) for speedy deletion to make way for moving Talk:William Shakespeare's style to that name. In addition I've tagged Wm Shakespeare's style and Talk:Wm Shakespeare's style for speedy deletion (under G6 since R3 explicitly excludes redirects created by page moves, but in this particular case I think that's wrong: the page move was for technical/houskeeping reasons and the redirected name highly unlikely). --Xover (talk) 06:10, 27 October 2015 (UTC)
