Talk:Joseph Wambaugh

message: I was startled to see Wambaugh's article ranked "low importance" in the California portal. As a tenured professor of humanities I've taught courses on California Culture for twenty five years. Wambaugh was virtually the poet laureate of Southern California for twenty years, documenting the rising tide of "diversity" and the shift in cultures. He was LA's novelist the way Neil Simon was NYC's dramatist during those years, a public figure, not just an author. The novels have the quality which Steven Marcus claimed Dickens had-- they described social phenomena before the academics noticed it. People learned about their own LA by reading Wambaugh, the way they had once learned about the London around them by reading Dickens. Both men are compulsively readable, as well.  In addition, his success was part of the rise of the American bestseller, thanks to his association with publicist Jay Allen. There is a famous story of every cop in the city buying a copy of New Centurions when it was released, vaulting the book into the best seller list and public notice. His nonfiction is sober and influential. The Onion Field may be the best of his books as literature, and remains a fine critique of the criminal justice system.  He was frequently called a conservative  but his love for Mexican culture and immigrants moderates that. He seems more of a working class man who believes actions have consequences. The tragedy of a son's death in Mexico, an auto accident, is the rupture in his career. There are great opportunities for research. Anyone trying to understand the Weltanschauung of Southern California from 1970- 2000 should turn to Wambaugh. Profhum (talk) 06:37, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

message: Copied from Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Opera:
This page seems to be lacking detail of her career in Europe: we get detail about her start and then her later work with Opera North, but not much to explain how it came to pass that it was she partnering Domingo - and doing such a job of it - in the 1989/1990 Salzburg Festival Ballo. almost-instinct 20:00, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably this discussion ought to be transferred to Talk:Josephine Barstow, but I'll answer here for now.  I don't think that she had much of a career in continental Europe.  The Salzburg appearances, IIRC, were because Karajan suddenly decided that she was to be his next diva.

message: Free BMD has a Josette P Simon born in Leicester in the 2nd quarter of 1959. Is that the subject of this article ? RGCorris (talk) 12:56, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Even if it is we should not be using primary sources.  I'm not clear what the problem was with the source for her date of birth that was just removed -- it was a reliable source that said she was 16 in February 1976, so she was born in about 1959. Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 21:42, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: , I see you have a source for 1960 as the year of birth, but it would be a remarkable coincidence if the above BMD record is wrong.  That record is the only Josette Simon to come up in FreeBMD, and it is from Leicester.  Perhaps we should go back to just "c. 1959", which doesn't contradict your source directly? Mike Christie (talk - contribs -  library) 13:18, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: There are two books, one published by the RSC (who employed Josette) stating 1960 as the birth year.  She may have been born with another name (i.e. Josette may be a middle name, or stage name.)  Also note that the entry on FreeBMD does not correctly link back to a source document. ("The page number is not within the range expected for the district. Note that there a number of possible reasons for this, including an error in the district, the page, the volume, the date or the type of entry.

replies: text: Truth in and of itself does not make it notable and you still haven't justified its relevance.  You apparently have a thing for citing the worst fielding percentages among qualifiers, but unless there is something notable about the "badness" of the fielding percentage, it's a minor stat of no relevance.  If you notice, player boxes here do not mention fielding statistics at all. LightningMan 12:48, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Player boxes only mention a few stats.  I believe that there is a max of 5 or so.  The major stats urls all mention fielding percentage.  That is what makes it notable as a stat.  And this fellow is a league leader in low fielding percentage.  That is notable, as he has distinguished himself.  I'm not aware that he has led the league in any other area during any year of his major league career.  Your first points were baseless and arbitrary -- you picked 40 games, not the qualifying stats.  Now, you are trying to concoct/assert other arguments.
