Talk:Lee Navigation

message: I remember reading somewhere that the canal was used for transporting war materials. Particularly, Spitfire and Hurricane engines manufactured in small engineering workshops in London and Mosquito parts constructed in previously furniture workshops. I have not been able to find a reference for this use, or indeed any idea where the materials were going for final assembly. Anyone else any ideas on this? Cheers.

Talk:George Gustav Heye

message: The article says "George Gustav graduated from Columbia College (now Columbia University) in 1896…" I'm pretty sure Columbia was already a "University" by that time.

Talk:Nicholas Alexandrovich, Tsesarevich of Russia

message: The Wiki article on Nicholas's younger brother (Alexander III) states that Nicholas had a highly sophisticated education, unlike Alexander himself. But there is no mention of Nicholas's education in this article. Valetude (talk) 22:14, 24 March 2017 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: no consensus (non-admin closure). I would even say there is a consensus against moving Alexei's article. No prejudice against a new discussion focussing solely on Nicholas Alexandrovich, Tsesarevich of Russia.  Jenks24 (talk) 09:59, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Use "Tsesarevich" for both My understanding is that "Tsarevich" was used for any son of Tsars, while Tsesarevich was for the heir apparent. As these two fellas were the heirs apparent, that title should be applied to them. Unless of course sources demonstrate a shift in the meaning. estar8806 (talk) ★ 23:01, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The title should be Tsarevich, the common English term. The question has come up before and that was the decision before. I haven't edited the article for Nicholas Alexandrovich but that would be my vote for a title for that page as well. Anything written about this lesser known Romanov in English also has generally used the term Tsarevich or Czarevich. Bookworm857158367 (talk) 17:28, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

text: By contrast, use of the term "Tsarevich" in relation to the name "Nicholas Alexandrovich" seems to mainly be used in reference to the future Tsar Nicholas II (see here, here, here; latter two links require WP:TWL access)). ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 15:13, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Gregorio Luperón

message: Saying that the parents "forced" the children to sell the goodies on the streets distorts the past and gives the impression as if they had many options or that if the kids would not grow to understand how the business if a family enterprise. Of course, we are against children labor today, and there are many good reasons why this type of raising kids would be ideal, but not only was working in the family business pervasive, but it was seen as the best way to teach kids responsibility and hard work, and most importantly, a trade. I will be changing this wording and if there is one of you who would think differently, please, let us talk about it here. I would respect and welcome a scholarly debate about this issue.

Talk:Gerrit Verschuur

message: The current format and emphasis of this article is bad. If he did indeed pioneer the measurement of the interstellar magnetic field using the Zeeman effect, then that is the most important thing about him as far as this encyclopedia is concerned, and it should be in the first or second sentence of the article, not buried in the fourth paragraph after details of his career, other jobs, and family life. There should also probably be more about that breakthrough than about his "current research" on apparent associations between Milky Way gas clouds and WMAP observations of cosmic microwave background, since his peers all seem to think that these associations are spurious.

Talk:Guillaume Lekeu

message: "In general, Lekeu is regarded as a highly talented composer who died far too young" may be an overgeneralization. For example, William S Newman (The Sonata Since Beethoven, p 544-5) was tempted "to ask whether even the 'much promise' does not need re-evaluation", and remarked that  "the more curious harmonies and irregular textures ... do not sound like gropings toward new styles but like the unlearned crudities of an average student who got a late start". Fenneck (talk) 22:40, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Lekeu's 1890 piano trio goes on for just under an hour, very slowly, with much repetition, and it's hard to avoid the conclusion that he really didn't have much to say. The movements are marked I. Lent (15'); II. Très lent (19'); III. Très animé (8'30"); IV. Lent (13'40"). The piece is not at all a dirge, such as Shostakovich's 15th quartet which is filled with elegiac adagios; Lekeu's melodies have no sense of mournfulness or regret. It's just very slow, very long, and very repetitious. Much the same could be said of his other compositions - in general Lekeu had little to say, and took an extraordinarily long time to say it.

thread_title:  You can't rely on this as an explanation: Φ 

message: The current definition given for an informal fallacy is "an argument whose stated premises fail to support its proposed conclusion".  Doesn't that make every inductive argument an informal fallacy?  But then the page goes on to say that inductive arguments can be convincing, even if they are informal fallacies.  So--what makes something an informal fallacy?  Is an informal fallacy just an unconvincing argument?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.37.62.241 (talk) 22:20, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

message: The article is about "informal fallacies." But then the body of the article describes "formal fallacies," and "inductive fallacies," and never mentions "informal fallacies."

Is that correct?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:30A:C08C:A6F0:21C:B3FF:FEC3:2572 (talk) 12:26, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
