Talk:Harold Gilliam

message: 3.18.09 removed text of entire editorial about Presidio and added a link to Chronicle page. (Hank Chapot, not logged in)User:68.164.171.135 (talk) 
:(content added back by Kyle1278, possibly as a good faith response to its appearance as a section blanking/vandalism, which it wasnt. no comment made here by this editor. this comment inserted to clarify the sequence of events)Mercurywoodrose (talk) 20:18, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I contest this revert (ie having the editorial put back in after it was removed) Harold Gilliam wrote hundreds of editorials. For someone to cut and paste one of many, probably an opponent of the Fisher Museum in the Presidio, doesn't seem to be good for a wikipedia page unless you want to cut and paste massive quantities of Gilliam's words. I think the link to said editorial was a better answer Hank chapot (talk) 20:47, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I added links to a sampling of Gilliam's output as an environmental editorialist. Removed the cut and paste from editor Kevin Danaher, though the  article he was interested in is represented in first external link. Hank chapot (talk) 04:33, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The editorial which was removed was copyrighted material, and could not stay here, no matter how important or representative of gilliams work, and no matter who the editor was or whether they represent or sympathise with any external group. the number of links to his work is excessive. I will try at some point to trim back the list of links to essential ones, maybe one link to a chronicle work and a few others. fixed up the article somewhat, as the formatting and style was all wrong. also clarified sequence of events on talk page, as it was confusing at first to me. Note: Kevin Danaher is not currently about the activist by that name, but originally was, and was created by the subject of the article, so Kevin Danaher (activist), appears to be the same person as the editor who added the gilliam piece here. I probably agree with his sentiments, but this is not the place to fight the good fight, esp. if content added doesnt meet WP guidelines.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 20:04, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

message: The 1881 timetable of the New York and New England Railroad denotes for one express train that in the East Thompson, Ct., station "the train does not stop, but the rear cars are detached" (Traveler's Official Guide, June 1881, page 32).

Talk:Harry Smith (poet)

message: I'm not at all sure that this subject meets the general notability guidelines.  He seems to have a personal connection with both publications listed (The Smith, and PresaPress: see here), which gives the impression that these works are largely self-published.  I have been unable to find any reliable sources to support the text, apart from the one review I've used (which is probably not good enough). But I do recognise that I may have missed something.  Modern poetry can be quite difficult to source and a name like Harry Smith is bound to bring up a huge number of irrelevant hits on Google. I've tagged it for the Poetry Project and will post a message there to ask someone to take a look.--Plad2 (talk) 07:35, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Beta Coronae Borealis

message: The article states that "it also has the traditional name Nusakan". Obviously, five questions immediately arise:
:(1) What sort of tradition (e.g., the astronomers' tradition, the Japanese tradition, the Inuit tradition, etc.)?
:(2) What language is the source of the term Nusakan?
:(3) What is the term Nusakan intended to mean when it is used by those adhering to the tradition described in (1)?
:(4) Are there any other competing/conflicting traditional names?
:(5) Has there simply been a mistake in  the English of the text; and, therefore, should the text have read something like "it also has the common, non-scientific name Nusakan"?
Hope that someone can clarify this . . . 129.94.6.28 23:01, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: http: //www.constellation-guide.com/constellation-list/corona-borealis-constellation has this explanation for the name Nusakan:
Its traditional name, Nusakan, comes from the Arabic an-nasaqan which means “the (two) series."  No source is provided. Bcuthbertson (talk) 15:49, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: See Paul Kunitzsch and Tim Smart: A Dictionary of Modern Star Names, Sky Publishing, 2006.  The "series" are two more or less linear lineups of stars that demarcate "The Pasture" (a traditional Arabic constellation covering parts of Hercules and Ophiuchus).

Talk:Verzló

message: Hello,
My name is Ana Guerrero I live in California, USA and I am 15years old. I am a 10th grade student at Narbonne High School (http://www.narbonnehigh.org/) in the Los Angeles metropolitan area.
As part of a class project, my History teacher has asked me to contact a school in ICELAND. I am therefore trying to locate a History (or English – in non-English speaking countries) teacher in your school who would be interested in an e-mail exchange between our classes. With Global Warming an increasing concern to all of us, everywhere, I am hoping to find out how this issue is affecting young people in ICELAND.
Could you please put me in touch with a History (or English – in non-English speaking countries) teacher in your school who might be interested in such an exchange? If you would like to contact my teacher, Mr. von Bergman, you can reach him via the school website at http://www.narbonnehigh.org/apps/staff/.
Thank you very much.

Talk:Claude Renoir

message: The picture shown is of the wrong Claude. It is a picture of his uncle. It was painted before he was born.
A follow up comment from me - a new editor (as a result of seeing this glaring mistake):  repeating the above. Will someone please remove the picture as it is indeed of the wrong Claude.  ie this picture is of Claude Renoir, SON of the famous painter and born 1901 whereas the article is apparently about his grand-son Claude born after this picture was painted.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jewelr (talk • contribs) 11:53, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

message: I can vouch for most of these names (at least the capitals). I know that most are used or at least sound very credible as translations (that is, we would not used the originals). See my last edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Icelandic_exonyms&diff=559366241&oldid=557482141
for an exception, that is just a literal translation. Eldland is also a literal translation but it's not a city that I'm familiar with to know that the translation is NOT used.
Lundúnir is used frequently for London, at least in the government radio. There is no mention though that this is not universal like say, Kaupmannahöfn (for Copenhagen). At least as many use just London and maybe that should be mentioned? I would think Bergen is also for Björgvin (maybe more).
Never heard Kolkata used, didn't know Kalkútta was obsolete, maybe it is maybe it isn't, not something you hear on the news every day.

thread_title:  Doubt about some names 

message: Per this discussion with Freigut in German Wikipedia, I believe that several entries in this list aren't really exonyms but mere adaptations of the original names to Icelandic spelling, often to ensure the correct original pronunciation, or transliterations. Examples include Lúanda and Búdapest where the acute accent is simply used to prevent the "u" being pronounced as an Icelandic u, which is [ʏ] (like German ü, Near-close near-front rounded vowel), or Jerevan, which is just a different transliteration of the original Armenian name. Per Endonym and exonym, an exonym is an "established, non-native name for a geographical place ..." such as Germany for Deutschland or Prague for Praha - or Icelandic Páfagarður for Vatican City. Mere spelling adaptations of the native name aren't exonyms. Therefore, I propose to exclude these not-really-exonyms from the list. Gestumblindi (talk) 14:45, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Helen Gardner (critic)

message: , thanks for expanding this; she certainly deserves this. I'm going through JSTOR, and a few minutes there provide at least two reviews for her Religion and Literature ([www.jstor.org/stable/3726216], [www.jstor.org/stable/514275]), a set of lectures that warrants a bit more than that sneer from the NYT (that citation needs completion). Those lectures, as well as her other work, is noted as having been influenced by her lifelong, stern Anglicanism, and I don't see that in the article yet either. Anyway, it seems as if her main problem with New Criticism as well as with structuralism was that both tend to do away with the author, and she was strangely fascinated by the concept and the person of the author.
