thread_title:  NEW CEO 

message: After reading this section about the Tandy Corporation buyout of the bankrupt RadioShack chain in the 1960s:
“Private-label brands from lower-cost manufacturers displaced name brands to raise Radio Shack profit margins;[citation needed] non-electronic lines from go-carts to musical instruments were abandoned entirely.”
I cannot help but feel like the irony of this should be commented upon in some manner. The article should note that at the company’s highest point(which is stated as 1991), RadioShack’s inventory was full of those very same items. Tandy brand remote controlled toys, appliances, musical synthesizers, etc with Realistic and Goldstar included. It seems the very same items contributed to an even more disastrous fall. 98.235.68.109 (talk) 04:04, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

thread_title:  Senile 

message: This section seems to rely heavily on the old Britannica publication from 1911 and the 1893 Russian BE encyclopedia: maybe update it a bit? Like the (slightly more recent) work of Dietrich Geyer on the connections between internal and foreign affairs of Russia, or even Andreas Renner's book on the public sphere and nationalism, with its various internal/external 'questions': Italian, Polish, Baltic German, Prussian. Also, expand on Gorchakov's idea of Russia's 'special mission' in Asia - contrasted with its more European neutrality policy in the same period. Quite accessible publication could be Schimmelpenninck van der Oye's chapter on Russia's foreign policy in the Cambridge History of Russia, vol. 2. I'm sure there are more recent works on Gorchakov I'm not familiar with. Just saying. 2001:1C02:190D:6300:657E:B8CE:E652:E2ED (talk) 15:17, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Detachable collar

message: A photo would be very helpful. It's hard to comprehend if you haven't seen one before.
I found false-collar by a link within wikipedia from Eton College, so if it is deleted, that link
will have to be updated.  If it is removed from wikipedia then at the least it ought to be included
in wiktionary.
: It should probably be contained within Wiktionary but as the false collar has no impact outside of Eton (unlike "stuck-up", which has entered common English parlance) it should be removed from Wikipedia no matter what. VfD supported.
Well, what about calling it a 'detachable collar' then?  I created a 'detachable collar' article and linked
it to this, but maybe it should be the other way around.  And, there's an article on 'collar' with a lot
of different types of collars listed (all in red, no working links), but NOT false collar or detachable collar
which could have a valid link.  And I added external links to articles about detachable collars.
:It was my knowledge that a 'detachable collar' is in fact the original collar. It has only been in this century that collars w heere attached to shirts. - Matthew238 23:03, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: That's a common belief, but actually attached collars are older; you can see them on Elizabethan shirts here  and here , and eighteenth-century shirts also had attached collars that fold over like modern collars.  PKM 00:18, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
