This article shares a lot in common with the NNDB article on Brook Taylor. Don't know if it's plagiarism or just that both share material from Encyclopedia Britannica. (edit) |

[edit] Pronunciation
What is the correct pronunciation of "Taylor" (where the stress goes)? Reminiscenza 22:39, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- According to the OED it is 'teɪlə(r) using the International Phonetic Alphabet. The ' shows that the first syllable is stressed. The OED entry specifically mentioned Brook Taylor. Mehmet Karatay 12:10, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

- I hadn't realised there was an alternative, but good to be complete :-) —DIV (128.250.80.15 (talk) 07:20, 1 May 2008 (UTC))
[edit] Priority
Article says work was unpublished, and claim to priority was "unjustly" disputed. "unjustly" seems needlessly POV, considering that I understand legally (these days) the tendency can be to go with the earlier publication date. —DIV (128.250.80.15 (talk) 07:22, 1 May 2008 (UTC))
