Really? Where did Thomas Aquinas use this phrase? (Anonymously contributed by User:82.93.10.238 )
- A preface to a call of "Original Research" no doubt. The Argument from Ignorance—"I've never heard this"—though so often employed at Wikipedia, is not a strong one. --Wetman 22:12, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
- A requirement for sourcing is completely acceptable, however, and attacking those who request that a subject be documented is frowned upon. User:Zoe|(talk) 22:19, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
- Requirements for sourcing commonplaces are all too often indulged in at Wikipedia by those who have not bothered to google. I bothered to google and have improved the article not the talkpage. Fair enough? --=Wetman 22:24, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Translation?
The article needs an elegant English translation of the Lope de Vega quote. Is anyone familiar enough with Dr. Taylor to recognize the context of Southey's quote? Holy Living?-- Wetman 02:18, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] GA failed
This article appears more like a list of the quotations of “Homo unius libri”. It lacks the structure of an article. In that regard, it fails criterion 1. As mentioned in the criterion, the article should have “a logical structure, introducing the topic and then grouping together its coverage of related aspects”. See Guide to layout which is basically a template toward the creation of an article. Make sure of the conformance to the other GA criteria before renominating the article. Good luck.
