replies: text:   Thanks for reviewing the article. I've been involved in  debates in several articles and had not checked up on the Clymer article during this time. Sorry for the late response. Will look into the items you brought to my attention directly. As for not citing all the content, sometimes this can occur if the statements are just general with no pressing reason to cite, but if you feel this isn't appropriate, please point out any item in question so I can deal with it. -- Gwillhickers (talk) 21:49, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

text: * Mitman, 1973, pp. 235-236, was used to cite the ornamentation, the counterweight, etc on Clymer's Columbian Press.  Moran, 1971. pp. 285-286 was used to cite the Albion press in that it was a "reposte" to ("upstaging")  Clymer's fancy designed press. -- Gwillhickers (talk) 22:34, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

text: *  I substituted Mitman for Moran, as Mitman covers the aspects of Clymer's early life. -- Gwillhickers (talk) 23:04, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Charles Hazelius Sternberg

message: The picture of Sternberg with the horse skull at the McKittrick Tar Pits cannot be the Frontispiece of "Life of a Fossil Hunter". That book was published in 1909, many years before Sternberg moved to California. The frontispiece to Fossil Hunter is a head shot of a much younger and leaner Charles H. Sternberg (available for download at Google Books). The picture does not appear in "Hunting Dinosaurs in the Bad Lands of the Red Deer River, Alberta, Canada", first published in 1917 (also available at Google Books). Nor does it appear in the third edition of "Hunting Dinosaurs" (1932), in which Sternberg added a chapter on his move to California and excavation at McKittrick. It does appear in such books as Katherine Rogers (1991) "The Sternberg Fossil Hunters." 144.39.6.3 (talk) 20:30, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: This doesn't appear to be something that can be substantiated. This source essentially cites an unnamed person who heard Sternberg say Kamiakin's head would look good at the Smithsonian, but assuming that the account is correct, it is not known who actually removed Kamiakin's head. That Sternberg removed Kamiakin's head is a rumor, and not verifiable. Emjackson42 (talk) 15:09, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Chen Cheng-siang

message: It is currently unclear whether this person is notable enough for an article on Wikipedia, since no secondary sources are cited. By the notability criteria for biographies, independent reliable sources are required to make sure that the subject is notable. These sources might be, for example, significant press coverage about the person (about him, not about his employer or organization), or an independent biography. 
It may well be possible that such sources exist. However, currently no such sources are  cited in the article. Please add such sources to establish notability.
At the moment, the article cites a source that shows he wrote contributions for Encyclopedia Brittanica (as far as I understand it); but what would be needed are sources that write about him.
For the time being, I am replacing the “importance” tag with “notability”. Sorted as part of the Notability wikiproject. --B. Wolterding 12:41, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Christen C. Raunkiær

message: :Christen C. Raunkiaer → Christen C. Raunkiær — The article was recently moved with no prior discussion even though it had been at the previous title for a little more than four years and I can't make sense of the explanation given in the edit summary (Move from "æ" to "ae". This is a matter of orthography rather than spelling. "ae" is just as correct and not so archaic.) so I'm requesting it be moved back to the correct title. This clearly is a question of spelling (and orthography is the study of correct spelling), "ae" is not as correct and there is nothing archaic about the letter æ. (Maybe that editor was mistaking the letter æ for the rare ligature æ?) 77.215.191.91 (talk) 13:16, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I've reverted my move, since it has been challenged. I do indeed believe it to be a ligature. Hesperian 14:31, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay. The key point is that Raunkiær is a Danish name. Although this is the same typographical symbol as the ligature that used to be common in Latin texts until the 18th century or so and occasionally has been used in English in words of Latin origin (such as encyclopædia), æ has the status of a letter in Danish with its own place in the alphabetical order and all. While it is the convention to convert æ to ae when æ is unavailable for some technical reason, doing so is nonetheless considered an error. 77.215.191.91 (talk) 15:45, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
