Talk:Resurgam

The first...
I changed "was the first mechanically powered submarine put to sea" to "was one of the first mechanically powered submarines put to sea", because obviously Ictineo II came much earlier. Cromdog 21:05, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Engine
Was the engine designed by Eugene Lamm or Emile Lamm, or are these the same person? Drutt (talk) 23:04, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Curate's egg
I flagged the statement about the curate's egg nickname as "citation needed" because the phrase is generally held to have originated in 1895. 1878 obviously pre-dates that, so one of these "facts" must be mistaken. -Jason A. Quest (talk) 01:04, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * The fact appears in a few reliable sources, and in many other online news reports and so on, the latter which I would be a bit wary of. But that she had the nickname "curate's egg" does seem to be supported by the sources. Given that it was apparently because of her shape (the first Resurgam was much more egg-shaped than her successor - see heswall.today/2016/03/02/resurgam-how-wirral-shaped-world-the-first-powered-submarine/), the meaning is different from that later promulgated by Punch. It may be that the usage here simply reflected the ecclesiastical occupation of the inventor, and the shape of his invention. This is slightly strengthened by the possibility that when he built the first Resurgam, Garrett may well have been a curate, rather than having his own parish. It was only five years after his graduation, and he started out as curate in his father's parish. When Punch published their cartoon, a wholly new meaning of the phrase "curate's egg" appeared. This seems like a reasonable explanation for the discrepancy - all WP:OR of course until something appears in a WP:RS. I will add a citation to the article. 82.39.49.182 (talk) 10:19, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

More Useless Popular Culture
How do the last two items...

Resurgam' is inscribed on the headstone of the character Helen Burns in Charlotte Brontë's novel Jane Eyre.

Resurgam is a fictional planet in Alastair Reynold's novel "Revelation Space".

...have anything to do with the submarine? They seem completely random and I'd argue their removal.Xenomorph erotica (talk) 13:01, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't know the novel, but as space opera it's as likely to be a submarine reference as a theological one.
 * Jane Eyre could have some relevance, if worked in, as indicating (in the other direction) that this was just the sort of phrase in the mind of the average Victorian submarine-designing vicar. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:31, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
