thread_title:  WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2008 

message: I'm proposing to merge the 3-sentence page American Workers League into this section, leaving that page as a redirect. There are basically 3 factual statements at issue, one of which is problematical.
The location of the first meeting is given by a source on that page as Mechanics Hall in Philadelphia, which I believe is a mistake. This article (no references in the whole darn section!) does not have a reference for its statement that the location was Mechanics Hall in New York City, but I believe that's correct, I just need to find the suitable reference.
The other two statements are are regarding 1) the egalitarian membership policy and 2) opposition to the Kansas-Nebraska act. These both have relevant-appearing references that I think would be welcomed here.  —jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 05:01, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks like a suitable reference was found for the Mechanics Hall claim, reassuringly published a few months before the American Workers League Wikipedia page was started. Klbrain (talk) 09:05, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

text: Weak opppose on the merge, because the American Workers League is an independently notable organization, influential in the context of 19th C. communism in the US. The current article isn't long, but is suitable for expansion. Also, history of the league after 1855 is independent of Weydemeyer's influence. My feeling is that we could use a summary/main format here, linking the section on the Weydemeyer to the 'main' page for the AWL. Klbrain (talk) 09:12, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

message: I fixed up as much as I could from the existing text.  One major thing I cleaned up was the titles of the books.  Not only were none of the titles italicized, as all book titles should be, they were all improperly capitalized.  This looks like a mistake carried over from the linked John Higgins' site, where the list was probably copied from.  Mr. Finchley Discovers his England should not be spelled capitalized Mr. Finchley discovers his England unless the UK has some capping rules we don't follow here in the US (I don't think they do).  Also most of the article abbreviations (Mr., Mrs., etc.) were missing the necessary '.' after them.  I assumed all the titles listed were novels and not short stories.  I just want to point all this out so it doesn't look like I mangled the article.  I did my best to bring it up to Wikipedia standards.
Lastly, although the article does cite some sources, they are only vaguely referred to and cannot easily be verified.  First, they have to be completely cited (magazine issue number, pages, article name) and should be <ref>'ed so it's easy to see which facts came from which sources.  If you have access to these facts, please include them in the article. — Frecklefσσt | Talk 13:36, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Assuming this article is using BrE, 'Dr.', 'Mrs.', etc. should more properly be written without the following full stop.

Talk:Joseph Wolf

message: In the London section, the second picture, of a cartoon by Wolf, has the caption containing the quote "[h]ighly learned makes a fool," with the period on the outside of the quotation marks, and the first letter of "[h]ighly" capitalized. Going by the Manual of Style section on typographic conformity in quotations, it seems to me that that the period should go on the inside, since "[h]ighly" is capitalized, implying that the full sentence is being quoted. Unfortunately, the inscription in the cartoon depicted is illegible to me (and possibly in German, Latin, or another language I don't know). Could anybody please tell me if I'm right or wrong about this? 
(Edit: The third sentence should have been written more to the effect of the following: "Unfortunately, the inscription that the caption box quotes in the cartoon depicted is illegible to me (and possibly in German, Latin, or another language I don't know), so I don't know which way it should be quoted." Sorry about that, and the fact that the edited sentence has "I don't know" twice. I'm also uncertain if the quoted sentence should have used brackets instead of parentheses, given that this whole edit is a parenthetical. Sorry if I made the wrong decision.)
(Edit: Normally I wouldn't apologize over a strikethrough, but since it was in the title of this section, I had to apologize this time. I was reverting it back to my originally intended title.)

message: "Beethoven however bested Woelfl in a piano 'duel' at the house of Count Wetzlar in 1799, after which Woelfl's local popularity waned." I have seen this written, but the only first-hand account that I know of says otherwise. A 1799 number of the Allgemeinen Musikalischen Zeitung (Leipzig) has this passage:
"After we have first featured the ladies, as we should, let us discuss the gentlemen. Among these, Beethoven and Wölfl create the most excitement. Opinions as to the advantages of the one over the other are divided here. However, it appears as if the larger party is tending towards the latter."
This is followed by some detail. Beethoven wins in free improvisation (per the author) and is second in his experience only to Mozart. Wölfl on the other hand "has at his disposal a thorough musical learnedness and true dignity in composition. He performs movements that appear nearly impossible to execute with a lightness, precision, and distinctness that is truly amazing... That Wölfl's unassuming and pleasing behavior gains over Beethoven with his sometimes haughty manner is very natural." Opus131 (talk) 05:22, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

message: Why is there no mention of his famous essays, especially "The Exiles of Florida", 1858 ???

thread_title:  no mention of famous Essays 

message: John Q. Adams, Joshua R. Giddings, and a few other members of the House of Representatives constituted themselves the Select Committee on Slavery, resolved to use every means to destroy that institution.  The defenders of the union knew that there was no use in attempting to discipline Mr. Adams, who served simply at his constituents' request, but decided to attack the second most prominent member, Mr. Giddings, hoping to scare all the rest of the members away and destroy the committee.  It was for this reason that the House censured Mr. Giddings, and the two parties then nominated a fusion candidate against him.  When his constituents returned him to office with 95% of their votes, it was clear that he, too, was immune to punishment, and the other members found that they, too, were not attacked.  I will put this into the article when I have located my source (probably not too long). J S Ayer (talk) 23:55, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Does that include a quote?  If so, where from?  In any case, under the constitution as it existed before 1865, the House of Representatives could do nothing to "destroy slavery" within the slave states -- even if there was an anti-slavery majority in the House, something which didn't remotely begin to happen until at least 1855...
