message: "To cover <something> with one's own chest" (закрыть собственной грудью) is a Russian idiom carrying pompous overtones, that has been widely used in propaganda for ages.

Talk:Roger Dudley

message: I would like to point out that just because a historic person states that another person was alive or dead at a certain period of time does not always mean they were.   People are imperfect with imperfect memories and imperfect knowledge.   In my own family, doing genealogical research, I have discovered numerous errors in records.  One should always try to verify basic facts through additional sources.  If two sources do not agree then seek a third.   My grandfather's grave stone and death record states he was born in 1896 but his birth record, draft record and census records show he was born in 1894.  So this means that my grandmother, the source who supplied his date of birth to the town clerk and the person who carved his head stone, was mistaken and got her dates mixed up or my grandfather might have lied to her about his age.   Point being that if an official record from Massachusetts in 1956 can be wrong about a date of birth then it is even all the more plausible that someone from over 400 years ago could just as easily be mistaken about the date of death of someone they knew or knew of.  Until this is resolved by examining additional sources, no date should be presumed correct for the date of Roger Dudley's death.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:9000:FF00:8E:75F7:9E61:F857:54F3 (talk) 02:33, 29 January 2020 (UTC)

replies: text:  "Nominating this article gives it a bump for a Russian-speaking person to add some more reliable sources" So you admit it's notable, you just wanted to cause panic to force an editor like me to drop everything else we have to do for the sake of this article instead of fixing it yourself? Please do not abuse the AFD process in that manner. If you know an article is notable, like this one, DO NOT NOMINATE IT FOR DELETION. Leaving comments against deletion on AFDs that should not exist in the first place takes time away from other edits that need to be done. Please knock it off, withdraw the nominatation, apologize to all involved. You should have noted your concerns here, on the talkpage, the proper way, rather than using deletion as a bullhorn to draw attention to an article you think really needs it - there are thousands of articles in need of attention, we can't be everywhere at once, and screaming with the deletion nomination really makes me want to downgrade this one on my to-do list.

message: The statue actually says "BARTHOLOMEO COLEONO BERGOMENSI OBMILITARE IMPERIVM OPTIME GESTVM", but the one in the States loses the H and the H and the E.  Why is that?  Why is the article named one way and not the way on the statue?  Is the original statue wrong? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.222.217.206 (talk • contribs) 13:12, 24 March 2007
:The name on the statue is in Latin, not Italian, so his name is presented in the vernacular. Also, since I don't know whether his name may have been rendered in medieval Italian with or without an "h" (sometimes for old spellings it may have been either), I can also posit that his name has been "modernized," just like we would do with a figure like Saint Peter, for instance. No one called him Peter: they would call him Cephas or Petrus, along those lines. But since his name has a modern equivalent, that's how he is commonly known. Alekjds talk 03:35, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Perceived lack of balance

message: I'm italian (from Rome, where this funny story is widely known) and I can tell you that the person in this article is a fraud, he was never an imam and is not or has never been a muslim. He was also faking to be president, secretary general of many invented italian muslim associations (also real ones, but he just faked to be part of them and letters of injunction were sent to him). In fact, he is not only right wing, but he recently "converted" to hinduism, as you can see in his facebook page. 
He also wrote recently: "Chiudere le moschee ed espellere gli islamici dall'Europa: unica soluzione per vincere questa guerra! Marine, sei sempre una grande, Vladimir aiutaci tu!" (close all the mosques and expell muslims from Europe: the only solution to win this war!) 
His story is quite funny anyway, he managed to scam a lot of important journals which only wanted to write something pro-israeli without caring about their sources.

calling finns "poro's" is so '99 :D
but it really is outdated. reason for such stupid vulgarity (propably) comes from deep soviet times: 
when in 1960's was opened Tallinna Kaubamaja (first mall in Tallinn), then basically, all over from russia slightly richer russian shoppers came here to buy things, that in here actually were a bit more western, better quality and nicer and stuff, than in russia.
of course they were disliked alot. and now, after re-independene, it seemed, that this trend is continuing! and stupid estonians(incl. me), who didn't understand, that unlike back then now it's profitable for us, we're talking about our relative-nation and all those other little things taking in count also, finns were called poros. luckily, few years ago that practise ceased to be. that word is not used anymore in estonia. over. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.196.38.190 (talk) 19:20, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

This is rubbish. Estonia is much poorer than Finland. The second sentence contradicts the claim (made above) that Finns come to Estonia for cheap shopping. That some goods may be more expensive in Estonia is due to the smallness of the market, not Estonians' high living standard.
