Talk:Umm Kulthum bint Uqba

message: There seems to be resistance to the idea that Zayd ibn Haritha divorced Umm Kulthum. This is clearly stated in Ibn Sa'd, The Companions of Badr, page 32: "Zayd ibn Haritha divorced Umm Kulthum." If Ibn Sa'd is wrong about this, evidence should be produced.
The nature of Umm Kulthum's "trick" on Zubayr is apparent in the wording of Ibn Sa'd, The Women of Madina, page 163. After he had refused her initial request for a divorce, she caught him off-guard and annoyed him into issuing the talaq out of anger. She then gave birth on the same day (indeed "later"; but apparently only a few hours later). This meant she did not need to serve the usual three-month waiting period, as the birth of a child automatically ends this period.
Rather than assess whether Zubayr "knew certainly" or only "believed probably" that Umm Kulthum would refuse a second proposal from him (which we have no way of knowing), it is better to cite Zubayr's own words: "She will never come back to me."Petra MacDonald (talk) 23:45, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Sunpu

message: In point of fact, I'm not particularly opposed to the idea of having Sunpu remain a separate article, but I thought I could bring some attention to the issue by adding these merge tags.
#If we don't merge, or, I suppose even if we do, the section on Sunpu, and the overall section on Shizuoka's history need expansion badly.
#Heian-kyō, Heijo-kyō, Naniwa, do not have separate articles. But then, Edo does, although it's really short.
#If we don't merge, we need to figure out what to do with old names of existing cities, in terms of categories. Does it fit under "Category:Cities of Japan"? It doesn't really fit under "Dissolved municipalities" or any of those, as it's only been renamed and changed and grown, not really dissolved.

thread_title: Final episode discussion

message: Writer Stephen Volk has confirmed that there will be no Series 3 of Afterlife. Apparently this has nothing to do with Andrew Lincoln's character being written out, Volk and Lesley Sharp wished to continue and Volk had some ideas for a third series, but ITV have not commisioned another series despite saying the show was wonderful and "exactly the sort of thing we want to be doing" because the ratings have "not progressed". That's hardly surprising since they scheduled the show on Saturday nights, BBC1's strongest night. Seems there is some remote possibility of the BBC taking Afterlife on but it's unlikely. Shame. Regardless, I guess for ITV it's back to more of the same reality/celebrity nonsense. --MarkB79 01:53, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: A shame in a way there is to be no third series, but I still think the last episode was a great way of ending the show and it would almost have spoiled it for there to have been more. Angmering 07:29, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

text: No one listens to you because you don't know what you are talking about.  Robert is dead, Alison is still very much alive, although her powers seem to have diminished or disappeared altogether.  A third series would probably involve her seeking a way to renew her powers, since she seems somewhat lost without them. 71.200.138.227 12:38, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Wow, it's odd coming back to something you have no recollection of writing. I really had no diplomacy in the past. I still think the final episode heavily implied that Alison may have died along with Robert, and a third series would have rather ruined that ambiguous ending, but that's all OR obviously. Great show, must re-watch it at some point. Was it really three years ago? U-Mos (talk) 01:11, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Treadstone and Blackbriar are different operations, Blackbriar replaced Treadstone but has more powers than it's predecessor. This means Desh Bouksani who is a Blackbriar operative is not a Treadstone operative. All the other Bourne Ultimatum operatives work for Blackbriar and not Treadstone.I guess the question is, is this page about Operation Treadstone or Operation  and Operation Blackbriar? ≈ Seraph 22:13, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Blackbriar 

message: Some confusion about active operatives. There was the London assassin who killed Ross. He escapes via the London Underground. Second, there is the New York agent who Bourne wounds in the car crash, and allows Bourne to escape on the rooftop. He survives.
Both of these must at least have been Treadstone (former-), or more probably, BlackBriar.
Are these the same person (unlikely - how long would it have taken to activate a London operative and get him to NY)? Which (if any) is Paz? 81.109.255.197 (talk) 05:24, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:.gs

message: "The islands are occupated by the British Empire and are claimed by Argentina. In spanish the name of the islands is "Georgias del Sur", hence the letters are ".gs" and not ".sgi" (south georgia islands)"
This second sentence appears to suggest that the Argentine claim is accepted by the international standards body (the only logical explanation for their using a Spanish name) - which would not seem to be very likely.  The first sentence is worded in such a way that it appears to give the Argentine POV precedence over the British one.
It's not ".sgi" because by convention the two-letter ccTLD's are used.  It's not ".sg" because that's already being used by Singapore.  It strikes me in that case that reversing the letters would be a logical solution in English (to give "Georgia South").
For these reasons I have reverted the edit to the previous version by User:Thijs!bot. Pfainuk 14:49, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for reverting the above. It smells like crap. The full name of these islands are South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands. It's possible ISO came up with .gs by putting the first letters of "Georgia" and "Sandwich" together, since I believe ISO ignores common names used by nations in forming the codes. - Thanks, Hoshie 09:53, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

===Old trivia section===
*Shrivenham station was the site of railway accident in January 1936, when an express from Penzance ran into some coal wagons that had become detached from an earlier train just outside the station.
*The Automobile Association reports the driving time to Swindon as about 15 minutes, and the driving time to Oxford as about 35-40 minutes.
*A common element of confusion is that Shrivenham has the Swindon postal code and Swindon telephone area code, despite being located in a different county Oxfordshire rather than Wiltshire.
*HMS Shrivenham was a Ham class minesweeper.

message: Commentary in this article about unspecified people's opinions about the stature of a game show because of the value of the prizes as compared with the value of prizes on game shows in another country is pointless.  It is not encyclopedic, and has been in this article since 2005 without any source to back it up. Just because no one thought to remove it before now, does't mean it shouldn't be removed  now. It's had eight years to find a source and it hasn't. It adds nothing of substance to the article, so there is no value to its inclusion.
