Talk:James Fisk (politician)

message: I came across some information on Find A Grave that said James Fisk was the father of Willbur Fisk. I have not found this information anywhere else and Willbur Fisk's Wikipedia article shows that his father is  the Honorable Isaiah Fisk, but there are no sources cited. I wondered if anyone else had any information regarding this? Thank you...--BuzyBody (talk) 17:53, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Possible relationship to [[Willbur Fisk]] 

message: Every source I checked on Willbur Fisk (or Wilbur) names his father as Isaiah (1763-1859).  These include: Sketches of Eminent Methodist Ministers by John McClintock; The Life of Willbur Fisk by Joseph Holdich; and American Religious Leaders: Willbur Fisk by George Prentice.
Children of Congressman and Senator James Fisk and his wife Priscilla West that I have been able to identify include: 
*Stephen (b. 1787) 
*James Fiske(b. 1790) 
*Susanna Fiske (b. 1791)
*Roswell Fiske (b. 1793) 
*Priscilla Fiske (b. 1795) 
*Parizade Fiske (b. 1796) 
*Versa Fiske (b. 1798).  She married Franklin Bradley.
*Aice Fiske (b. 1802) 
*Zoroaster Fiske (b. 1804) 
*Parma Fiske (b. 1805).  She married Orlando Stevens and died in Minnesota on December 3, 1854.
I hope this helps.

replies: text: I think the term is used, at least archaically, in the USA as well.  Wonder if Racing project has any criteria for assessment, WPEQ marks everything "low" unless there's a darn good reason for something higher.  We may be a bit harsh, but seems to minimize assesment wars as people are less sad if that's the default so they don't feel insulted by it.

Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Musicians/Stub sorting

message: Pardon me if this is not standard procedure.
I am one of the stub sorters currently working on Musician stubs in the letters D, E, and F.  While I don't have issues with who should be "responsible" for sorting the musician stubs, I am concerned about this proposal.  First, many musician stubs include neither the nationality nor the instrument of the musician.  Second, this seems to double or triple the amount of sorting that will need to be done.  Third, this will require every nation to have the full gambit or both musical genres and instruments.  If one guy from Wales plays the mbira, will be get his own stub?  -Acjelen 22:08, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've marked this as historical; it didn't get much response and doesn't seem to be the way forward. The stub sorting project has a good track record and more dedicated resources. The onus should already be on them to work with other WikiProjects. Let's leave it at that for now. --kingboyk 10:48, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

The politican later said they talked about 15 minutes or so, it's misrepreprenting to say this is the "full interview."  Maybe it's the "longer version."  It's informative, and maybe it should be in there somewhere or in the "for further reading" section.SecretaryNotSure 15:18, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

text: Yes, the youtube video is badly named. It is, as far as I know (didnt watch it, I dont watch that show) the full reportage, I dont think the two extra minutes hurts the thre minutes shown interview.
