Talk:Richard Simpson (martyr)

message: I don't know how to fix "He was imprisoned in York for the Catholic religion," but it is strangely worded, and the context makes it sound like imprisonment was part of his academic career.  Jkelly 20:59, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for pointing that out. I agree it's a bit clumsy. I've changed it to "He was imprisoned in York as a Catholic recusant". I'm not sure how well-known the word "recusant" would be outside the UK, but I think it's more elegant and is accurate, and I've wikilinked it to the definition. If you're not happy, do feel free to speak up again. ElinorD (talk) 22:55, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Minneapolis Domestic Violence Experiment

message: Why is this worthy of an article? The New Zealand Police have a policy (particularly in cities such as Hamilton or Waitakere) of arresting the male involved in any 'domestic violence' incident (regardless of whether violence has actually occurred, regardless of who is damaged) and locking him up for twenty-four hours. As far as I am aware, this approach has not decreased the incidence of domestic violence in New Zealand, which has one of the highest rates in the 'developed' world. Perhaps it might even contribute to its increase? Duh.

replies: text: The Minneapolis study influenced the New Zealand pro-arrest policy (and other countries), in addition to influences on policy in the U.S.  Correct approach or not, the tremendous influence of the study on policy is highly notable, as is the debate and controversy regarding the study and pro-arrest policies. --Aude (talk) 16:32, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Photo of Lawrence W. Sherman? 

message: On a quick reading this article seems very short of quantitative detail. "Arrest was found to be the most effective police response. The study found that the offenders assigned to be arrested had lower rates of re-offending than offenders assigned to counseling or temporarily sent away." The same wording could be used for an improvement of 1% or 90%. The same lack of detail is found elsewhere in the article. If the detail is buried there and I've missed it, it should be summarised in the introduction. Pol098 (talk) 22:04, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Ivan Aguéli

message: See Trial of the thirty. The following statement contradicts Jean Maitron's account of the trial (according to which only Ortiz, Chericotti and Bertani were given sentences, and all others acquitted), and he is an authoritative source on the matter:
"In 1894 he was arrested for association with French anarchists such as Maximilien Luce and Félix Fénéon and hence in the famous "Trial of the thirty" sentenced to 4 months in the Mazas prison . While in prison Aguéli used his time to study the Koran and Oriental languages."

Talk:Federalist No. 21

message: "Central" government can be taken as a loaded phrase, as in a "centralized" government.  However, the Founders specifically gave us a de-centralized, not centralized government.  Federalist 45, among others Federalist Papers(and the Convention), highlights this fact.  "The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite."  The States were to handle pretty much everything(de-centralized) as opposed to the general government handling everything.(centralized)
More importantly, the text of Federalist 21 uses the word "central" a grand total of zero times.  The new government is referred to either as a "general government" or a "national government" in the Federalist, just as they did during the 89 days of the Constitutional Convention.
The Founders did not have a centralized government in mind when they built the constitution as it was basically just a decade prior that they had fought a war against King George's big centralized government. Progressingamerica (talk) 23:20, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Brzeg

message: My mother was from Brieg.  She lived there with her family from 1932-1945.  She was 18 years old when she and her family fled the Soviet army.  The article says " Its German population was violently expelled first by Hitler's Army that moved its own population further into Germany and declared Brieg "Festung Brieg" and later on by Soviets and Poles after they captured the city".  My mother never once mention being "violently expelled" by Hitler's army.  They were glad when they saw German soldiers.  Maybe the authors of this article should talk to someone who was actually there.
In her trek westward she was captured by Czechs in Pilsen.  She and other women were treated awfully by the Czechs.  She eventually escaped and made it to Germany.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pgg804 (talk • contribs) 04:58, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Franklin K. Lane High School

message: The article has two different statements about who the school is named after. The Location section says "The school is named for Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior during the administration of President Woodrow Wilson." while the Information section says "The high school is named for the Canadian-American politician, Franklin K. Lane." Neither has a cited reference and I did not find anything in the References or External links to resolve this obvious conflict. Since the school is in the USA, I tend to believe the former is correct, but there is nothing to prove that. Therefore, I have tagged both as citation needed. Can someone help resolve this? Thanks. Truthanado 00:58, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've cleared it up.  I've avoided the word "Canadian", as Lane was born in the colony of Prince Edward Island, and left for California before it became part of Canada.  It's all properly reffed.--Wehwalt (talk) 16:48, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Who is the school named after?

message: This school was phased out and broken into separate schools in the 2000s.  This school is not in operation under the title in this article.  The old code number (K___) does not apply to this school.  A student cannot apply to this school, as named here, nor can a teacher apply to this school.  The school, rather, has been split into four different schools, with different students, staffs, performance statistics and missions.  If there are references on the internet, these are legacy references.

Talk:Federalist No. 67

message: The Constitution doesn't say anything about the President appointing Senators.  The original document (pre-17th Amendment) provided that the executive of each state should appoint senators in case there was a vacancy, but the appointment was only good till the end of the next legislative session for each particular state.134.126.230.214 (talk) 01:34, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

message: The article makes the following claim: "Several American citizens are challenging the standards; they are fighting for a way to enable the United States to re-elect presidents when necessary – maybe after two years."
Who is advocating for this? There is no evidence that such a movement exists in the United States. If this is an idea held by just a few individuals, then name them (but in that case it may not be an idea with much political importance). The "maybe" is also doing a lot of work here. Are these supposed reformers advocating for two year terms or not? 2600:6C64:617F:AC90:852C:3A25:A8B6:6E70 (talk) 18:25, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Hans Fruhstorfer

message: Hello. Hans Fruhstorfer was my great grandfather and I cannot seem to find any personal information about him anywhere. Someone wrote this article with knowledge about his movements, which I doubt will be expounded upon in the citations and sources provided in the article, as they seem only to deal in the specifics of his work and not at all with him personally, and so therefore, someone has access to more information somewhere. My father told me what little he knew about Hans Fruhstorfer, and his grandmother would tell him very little. There always seemed to be this great mystery about him, such as where did all of his money come from? He had OODLES of it! I have found articles on his widow, my great grandmother, the Comtesse de Mileant, but they all deal with her life after my great grandfather died, and usually refer to him as a German to whom she was married prior to marrying the count, and nothing more. I would be so obliged if someone would be kind enough to give me some information or at least point me in the direction of where I might obtain this information myself. Thank you in advance.

message: As a representative for GTCR, who are my client via my employer The Harbinger Group, I am here with some corrections and requests for this Wikipedia article. As I have a financial connection I will only make requests and not edit the article, and will clearly disclose my connection.
I have three quick edit suggestions for the page's infobox. 
*Change "Founder" to "Founders", since the firm has several of them.
*Update the "Total assets" figure to US$24.1 billion (FY 2020)
*Update "Number of employees" to 99
My source on the latter two changes is a Crain’s Chicago Business report from August 2021, which is the most recently published information I could find for both of those numbers.

Wikipedia talk:Today's featured article/June 18, 2007

message: I propose the following changes to tomorrow's Featured Article blurb:
#Wikilink "Ortoiroid" to the article on the Orinoco river.  It's an unfamiliar term and I can't find an article on the Orinoco people or culture to link it to directly.  
#"...history began with the settlement... by the Ortoiroid culture..."  Better to say "settlement... by the Ortoiroid people...".
#In the proper noun phrase "Spanish-American war", "war" should be capitalized.  Also wikilink "Spanish-American War".
I propose the following slightly altered new version:
The history of Puerto Rico began with the settlement of the archipelago of Puerto Rico by the Ortoiroid people, sometime between 3000–2000 BC. At the time of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the New World, the dominant indigenous culture was that of the Taínos. The Taíno culture died out during the latter half of the 16th century because of exploitation, war and diseases brought by the Spanish. Puerto Rico was the key to the Spanish Empire since the early years of the exploration, conquest and colonization of the New World. The smallest of the Greater Antilles, Puerto Rico was a major military post during many wars between Spain and other European powers for control of the region during the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries. In 1898, during the Spanish-American War, Puerto Rico was invaded and subsequently became a possession of the United States. The first part of the 20th century was marked by the struggle to obtain greater democratic rights from the United States. The Foraker Act of 1900, which established a civil government, and the Jones Act of 1917, which granted Puerto Ricans U.S. citizenship, paved the way for the drafting of Puerto Rico's Constitution and the establishment of democratic elections in 1952. However, the political status of Puerto Rico, a Commonwealth controlled by the U.S., remains an anomaly, more than 500 years after the first Europeans settled the island. (more...)
