message: How stupid is it to robotically transcribe numbers off some computerized result thus:
:As of the census[2] of 2010, there were 745 people, 6 households, and 2 families residing in the village. The population density was 564.4 inhabitants per square mile (217.9/km2).

The racial makeup of the village was 66.0% White, 26.2% African American, 3.5% Native American, 0.4% Asian, 0.1% Pacific Islander, 1.6% from other races, and 2.1% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 10.1% of the population.
:There were 6 households of which 16.7% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 33.3% were married couples living together, and 66.7% were non-families. 66.7% of all households were made up of individuals and 16.7% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.

message: So, when was Boys Town founded?
I've come across four different years --- two here in Wikipedia (1917 and 1921) and two in a Boys Town mailer I got celebrating Boys Town's 100th anniversary (which is either in 2019 or 2020).
Can one of these dates be verified? 2600:8800:784:8F00:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 14:30, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

message: I want to reduce - ideally to zero - the number of bot edits I'm doing. I get sick of complaints about false positives, and the IE web control on my computer is faulty so I get gigabytes of cached files on my HDD and AWB always crashes when I'm in bed as out of memory. I think I've done a hurculean effort already (150,000+ edits).
Really doing the tagging now is child's play with my plugin, and all it takes is a computer, a connection, and ideally a bot account. Can some other members consider getting bot accounts so we can continue on a collaborative footing?
It's my intention to finish :Category:Politician stubs. I'd like to hand over my partially completed :Category:Politicians list to someone else. It should be mostly free of false positives. Any takers? --kingboyk 12:33, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Talk:A. A. Ames

message: There are a lot of assumptions being made here that are not really appropriate to be made, because the information given does not support the conclusions drawn.  This source, which is "Progressive men of Minnesota." Published by The Minneapolis Journal, 1897, does not indicate that Ames was a member of the Scottish Rite.  What it says is: "Dr. Ames has been Master of Hennepin Lodge, No. 4, of the Masonic order; High Priest of St. John's Chapter, No. 9; Eminent Commander of Zion Commander, No. 2, Knights Templar, and Grand Chancellor of the Grand Commandery Knights Templar of Minnesota. He has been Chancellor Commander of Minneapolis Lodge, No. 1, Knights of Phythias, Grand Chancellor of Minnesota and Supreme Representative to the Supreme Lodge of the world from this jurisdiction. He was on the charter list of No. 44, Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, the pioneer lodge of the Northwest, and its first Exalted Ruler. He is a member of the G. N. Morgan Post, No. 4, G. A. R."
Note the date is 1897 on that piece.  If Ames was not a member of Scottish Rite (and the above article does not indicate that; it's about the only Masonic thing not there, and is therefore conspicuous by its absence), he was likely not a 33rd degree Mason, and likely did not become one.  Ames' obituary also does not claim current membership at the time of his death, nor does the 1897 piece; it merely says he served in certain offices at some unspecified point in time.  Keeping in mind that his trial was five years after the article above, he may very well have resigned or been expelled by then. MSJapan (talk) 21:07, 23 July 2013 (UTC)

Talk:A. A. MacLeod

message: Re: A A MacLeod
I wondered about the name change posted for his first wife. Marriage registration, signed in her hand, gives her name as Annie Mildred Hicks. Did you have another source for this? I have no information for the first two children. I see family tree for MacLeod in the Finstad book seems to attribute all four children to the second marriage, but there is no mention of a previous marriage. I also wondered if the detail about the death of the first wife was appropriate in the summary box like this. So much on causes of death not usually given there.

Talk:A. V. Alexander, 1st Earl Alexander of Hillsborough

message: I've removed a claim that Churchill was a "protectionist" Chancellor in 1924-9. Baldwin promised tariffs in the Dec 1923 election, but not in 1924-9. Churchill was a free trader and had defected from the Tories to the Liberals in 1904 on that issue. Protectionism was then brought in by the Ottawa Agreements of the early 1930s - Churchill was no longer a member of the government by then. I think we need a bit more detail on exactly which of Churchill's trade policies AV Alexander opposed, and why. Paulturtle (talk) 17:46, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Clay Tanner

message: I found a source from 1962 that states that Clay Tanner's birthname is Alan L. Honaker here. The timeline seems to match up seamlessly in that his first role is listed as the 1963 film A Gathering of Eagles, where he played the very minor role of "patient" and from 1963 onwards the "Clay Tanner"  moniker starts popping up in IMDB listings etc. I added the info to the article, but I removed it as I wasn't absolutely confident that they are indeed the same person. Perhaps someone has another source that can definitively confirm or dismiss the birthname? --Jezebel'sPonyoshhh 16:45, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Aaron Henry (politician)

message: I have deleted more than I intended in the Aaron Henry article: an entire section called "Later life" or "Post Civil Rights Work" or something. If someone could reverse that paragraph it would be better.
I question whether Henry's civil rights organizing work is related to two arrests for sodomy, and a later claim that he was living a man even though he was legally married to a woman. I was trying to delete the line about his so-called bisexuality because it wasn't clear how that was related to his previous civil rights work. I did not intend to delete the entire next paragraph. Sorry about that.
