Talk:J. Donald Cameron

message: I have made signifigant changes to the article. I have added more on his tenor as Secretary of War and Pennsylvania's U.S. Senator. I know he has been labeled as a "political boss", however, I avoided this term since this might not be a neutral.  According to H.W. Brand's 2012 new book on Grant, I have put emphasis on how Grant and the War Department under Secretary Cameron secured the nation from a second secession. I have also mentioned the Great Sioux War that Cameron had to contend with immediately after his appointment. Please feel free to edit, discuss, and improve the article. Thanks.

thread_title:  Signifigant changes made 

message: ,
For what it's worth, I agree with the removal of the images of the daughters. In general, the pictures could benefit from cropping so that they don't look messy. 
It's not usual to include images of children. It's even not usual to add images of spouses, although I often do if one is available. Generally, the times when images of children are included are when the person is an artist and the images are works of the subject of the article - or if the children are noteworthy and there is more than a slight mention of them. In this case, I agree that they are unnecessary.
The article currently has a nice polished selection of images.–CaroleHenson (talk) 02:35, 27 March 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Rocket from the Tombs

message: *The Atlanta Starlight Drive-in's Drive-Invasion, the group's most recent gig as an opening band for Sourthern Culture on the Skids, 9/3/06, marked a sad breakdown for singer, Thomas.  Upon discovering that the event's principal MC had touched his microphone, Thomas experienced a panic attack, and began uncontrollably cursing and sobbing.  Other members of the band were ultimately able to console the singer and explained it away as germ-phobia.  They were ultimately able to finish the set before a somewhat bewildered festival crowd.
*Any reference for Thomas' alleged 'breakdown'? 
**Yes, any? Is this just a random, unsourced anecdote? If this isn't a quote from a proper source, it's blatantly POV. Anazgnos 07:59, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I can find no printed source that indicates that William Sandys had a middle name. A quick google seach reveals that many sites mention that the middle initial is "B.", but I fear that they are all copying the information from this very page. Can someone come up with definite evidence that he had a middle name, and if so, what was it? Also the sentence about the "current" fashion for Merry England seems to be old fashioned.

Talk:Corfitz Ulfeldt

message: "His character was marked by ambition, avarice[,] and absolute lack of honor or conscience"; "he migrated to Stralsund in Swedish Pomerania[] and began the intrigues which have branded his name with infamy"; he "entered the service of his country's deadliest foe, for the express purpose of humiliating his sovereign and enriching himself"; &c.
Can we get some sources and context for this stuff? I don't want to say that the traditional Danish narrative is unimportant, but it certainly isn't the whole picture. Even Benedict Arnold is a hero to the British. Wouldn't the Swedes look kindly on this guy? Wouldn't historians view him as an able courtier simply performing as well as he could given the nature of his times and situation? — LlywelynII 11:13, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Not so much traditional Danish narrative as traditional Encyclopedia Britannica 1911 narrative. In Denmark his traditional role as an arch-traitor was revised and nuanced way back in the 19th century with the popular publication of the prison memories of Leonora Christina Ulfeldt, so I wouldn't mind deleting the quoted passage completely or at least trimming all of the weaselwords and antiquated judgements and replace it with a neutral wording instead. --Saddhiyama (talk) 17:07, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

WP articles should not refer to plain "antifreeze".  There are now two chemicals commonly used for car antifreeze.  Ethylene glycol is traditional, more toxic, and reduces wood rot.

thread_title:  [[WP:MEDCAB]] 

message: Isn't it a bit adventurous to state that this language/dialect/variety has a total of exactly 2,787,625 speakers (not 1 more, not 1 less)? Numbers of speakers are usually mere estimates (and mere rough ones at that), because how could one count every last speaker of a language with figures in the millions and be absolutely sure that not one was left, and be sure that not one was counted in that shouldn't? (people are continually dying and being born, so the population of an area is in constant change and using exact census figures is fictitious to a certain extent since it tries to freeze an essentially fluctuating quantity, and besides census figures include born-deaf people, for example, apart from the fact that languages and dialects have fuzzy borders with their closest relatives and people may have varying degrees of fluency, so it is often very subjective to try and draw clear limits so as to define which persons speak and which ones do not speak a certain language variety). So it looks ridiculous to use such an overly precise number for what can be nothing but an estimation. Giving a rounded figure such as "over 2,750,000" or "aprox. 2,800,000" would be more realistic and credible. 213.37.6.23 (talk) 13:46, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm no expert, but that's what the source says.  I reffed the figure, and gave the exact wording in the footnote.  I would assume with some digging you could find a more rounded figure which is similarly referenced.  If so you should change it (as you are correct, it sounds very odd).  But until you find a source, we should keep the figure with a reputable reference.  T L Miles (talk) 14:18, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

message: 1.  Dall never uses the word "Illuminati" in his book.  It does not appear.  Thus, the impression of its use in the Wikipedia article is as a deliberate, politically-motivated smear on Dall, to paint him as a member of the lunatic fringe, which is NOT correct.
2.  Re:  Dall became involved with the "racist Right's ill-fated efforts at forming a third party".[10]
By what justification is some unrelated author (Diamond) permitted to label (smear) Dall as a "racist" in the Wikipedia article?  That is pure biased OPINION of some unrelated third party and has nothing to do with the FACTS about Mr. Dall's life.  It is an inappropriate entry in the Wikipedia article.

message: The article Site-specific functions of Central Neuropeptide Y was recently created, deleted as a copy-vio, and then recreated with a less close paraphrase (although I think it's still too close).  Furthermore, the creator of the article appears to have a conflict of interest, as her user name is a shortened version of the names of one of the principal authors the study that was closely paraphrased.  I don't know much about the subject material (I saw this originally while patrolling recent changes), but it seems to me that this other article should really be merged in here as it seems to be just a sub-topic of this main topic.  Alternatively, the other article needs to be rewritten, so that it's not so close a paraphrase and it's more encyclopedic in tone.
