Talk:John Plamenatz

message: This is odd. The article had his birth/death dates as January 15, 1912 – July 1975. The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography has May 16, 1912,  – February 19, 1975. Same year, but different dates in both cases. I don't know if the birth date could be explained by the old style/new style difference (although I thought only Russia was affected by this) or the records in Montenegro being sketchy, but why the difference in death dates? In any case, I have gone with the Oxford dates, but I wonder where the previous values came from. Herostratus (talk) 00:17, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Dates

message: Sorry, But I'm having a little trouble understanding why Plamenatz is being described here as Serbian rather than Montenegrin.
*Is the case being made that there is no such thing as a "Montenegrin", there are only Serbians who happen to live in a part of the world called "Montenegro" (and therefore, I suppose, articles such as Montenegrins and List of Montenegrins etc. are invalid) or
*Is the case being made that Plamenatz, in particular, was not Montenegrin (and therefore would not belong in the otherwise valid article List of Montenegrins)?
It seems like it's the former case that's being made, e.g. with the reference to THROUGH THE LANDS OF THE SERB, by Mary E. Durham and so forth, if I'm understanding this correctly. If that's the case: that's silly, It's an idiosyncratic position, and cut it out. Just stop it.
If it's the latter case that's being made, could someone explain to me why he's Serbian when:
*He was born and grew up in Montenegro, and
*his family had lived in Montenegro for generations, and
*his father was Foreign Minister (a post that states don't usually given to foreigners and that would generally indicate integration an into a state's ruling elite and therefore into that state, at the political level at least).
Maybe there is a simple explanation. I don't know what it would be, though. If it's a matter of his family having emigrated from Serbia X generations ago, I think it'd be debatable that members of the family remain Serbian forever, and I'd like to see some proof that his family didn't intermarry with Montenegrins and adopt Montenegrin customs and so forth. "Montenegrin of Serbian extraction" might be an OK compromise, if this could be demonstrated to be true. Herostratus (talk) 04:56, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

message: The titling of this picture is problematic.
As first, the picture is taken from the site www.crohis.com,

But, that was not mentioned in the licensing, neither about sources of this picture.
Second, the picturename on en.wiki is distorted.
Original form on the sourcesite is called "pucicn.jpg".
Second, his signature can be seen at the bottom of the picture. It says "Nikola Pucić", not some "Pozza". In fact, he fought whole his life for Croatian cause, unification of Croatian lands and against the italianisation of southern Croatia. 
But, the uploader of this picture has ignored the stating of the source (site www.crohis.com) and Pucić's personal declaring, putting italianised nameform in the imagename on en.wiki. That's perfidious way of distorting of historical data. Kubura 20:05, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Viktor Jansson

message: The article says:
:Jansson was born in Helsinki in 1886 to Julius Viktor Jansson and Johanna Theresia (Karlsson). His father worked at the Stockmann department store, later owning a haberdashery store.
Something is wrong here. The Stockmann, Helsinki centre store was only built in 1930, when Viktor Jansson himself (not his father) was already 44 years old. Perhaps this should mean the older premises of the store? JIP | Talk 19:59, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The Stockmann business was founded in 1862 according to this Stockmann document so it is perfectly possible that his father worked for them. I agree with you that his father could not have worked in the new 1930 building, since he died when Viktor was six (about 1892). Stockmann must have had other premises during the 68 years from 1862 to 1930 where he could have worked. I don't think that the article claims that he worked in the 1930 building. Thanks for raising this. — Hebrides (talk) 22:40, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Gazela

message: :"This information is not correct. The ship has initially been built as a schooner in Southampton, United Kingdom, on 1837, ordered by Messrs. Russel & Co. and registered in the port of Limerick, in Ireland. By 1853 the ship was sold to british owners and re-christened Dolphin. Between 1853 and 1867 the ship had several british owners, being the ship registered in the port of London. In 1867 the Gazela was purchased by portuguese owners (Messrs. Jose Jacinto da Luz & Co.) who kept her sailing using the same name at least until 1874. During this period she was registed both at Lisbon and in Ponta Delgada (St. Miguel Island, Azores) and put to sail between the islands, the continent and the U.K., mostly to transport general cargo and fruits (oranges and pineapples). In 1874-1875 she was bought after a court auction in Ponta Delgada by Mr. Abraham Bensaude, who became his only new owner. In this occasion the ship changed her name to "Gaselle" and was registered in the port of Horta (Fayal Island, Azores). During the two following years the Gazela was used to transport goods between the Azorean islands and Lisbon. In 1877 the Gazela carried small repairs and altered her rig to become a brigantine resuming her operation to the last previous traffic and simoultaneously to be also used to fish whales in the Atlantic. In 1883 the ship was in Cacilhas (Lisbon) for small repairs for about two months. When leaving the yard from mr. J.A. Sampaio she was re-christened again with the name "Gazella", registered at Lisbon but still employed under the same operations (cargo - fishing whales). In 1891 the ship has been transfered to a society known by Parceria Geral de Pescarias, which placed her by 1896 to fish cod in the Newfoundland waters. In 1901 she has carried out a major re-building in J.M. Mendes yard at Setubal, changing again the rig to a barquantine, keeping the same shape seen in the present. Therefore it is my opinion that the Gazela can be considered the oldest sailing ship in the world still afloat with 175 years of age."
