ask the experts. There's been talk recently about the proposed <a href="/wiki/Equal_Rights_Amendment" title="Equal Rights Amendment">Equal Rights Amendment</a> to the US constitution after former president Biden stated the he considered the amendment to be ratified and part of the US constitution, as it had been ratified by 38 states, reaching the bar of three quarters of the states the Article 5 of the US constitution sets. </p><p>The National Archives disagreed and pointed to a deadline (later extended) for ratification set by Congress; since the required number of states had not been reached by the final deadline and since the deadline had not been extended further, it said, the amendment could not be considered ratified. </p><p>This appears to be plainly at odds with the text of <a href="/wiki/Article_Five_of_the_United_States_Constitution" title="Article Five of the United States Constitution">Article Five of the United States Constitution</a>, which contains no mention of Congress being able to impose a deadline, or in fact any other requirement, for the ratification process. The best argument I've seen in non-scholarly sources is, in essence, that "the 5th Amendment is silent on this", but that strikes me as unconvincing. The 5th prescribes a process, and there is no reason (that is readily apparent to me) to presume that this process may be changed by Congress in either direction. Just like Congress may not declare that ratification by one half of the states (rather than three quarters) is sufficient, it may not impose that additional steps must be taken or additional hurdles passed: say, it may not require that four fifths of the states must ratify and that three quarters is not enough. The Constitution prescribes what conditions are necessary for an Amendment to become part of the Constitution — but it also dictates that when these conditions are met, this does happen. </p><p>As such I find the National Archives' position to be inconsistent with the Constitution and the 5th, and Congress's attempt to impose an additional requirement in the form of a deadline strikes me as out of line with the Constitution, rendering said additional requirement null and void. </p><p><i>That said,</i> and this is where my question comes in, I am not a legal expert. I haven't studied law, nor do I work in or with law in any way; I am merely curious. And although appeals to authority are fallacious as far as logical reasoning is concerned, I don't doubt that the National Archives (as well as, presumably, Congressional staff) have considered this matter and concluded that yes, a) the imposition of a deadline by Congress, above and beyond the process prescribed by the 5th, is constitutional; b) meeting of said deadline is then an additional condition for ratification; and c) since this deadline has not been met here, the ERA is not part of the Constitution. </p><p>And my question is: why? On what legal basis? Surely Congress cannot create additional requirements out of whole cloth; there must be some form of authorization in it. What's more, since we are talking about a process prescribed by the Constitution itself, said authority must itself be grounded in the Constitution, rather than taking the form of e.g. a simple law (Congress cannot arbitrarily empower itself to change the rules and processes laid down by the Constitution). </p><p>I would be very grateful if someone with a background in law (professional or otherwise) could explain this to me.

That was the case with a few other amendments also, but they were ratified within the time limit, so there was no issue. It's possible someone will take this issue to court, and ultimately the Supreme Court would have to decide if that type of clause is valid. On the flip side, there is the most recent amendment, which prohibits Congress from giving itself a raise without an intervening election of Representatives. That one was in the wind for like 200 years, lacking a deadline. When it was finally ratified, it stood. ←<a href="/wiki/User:Baseball_Bugs" title="User:Baseball Bugs">Baseball Bugs</a> <sup><i><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Baseball_Bugs" title="User talk:Baseball Bugs">What's up, Doc?</a></i></sup> <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Baseball_Bugs" title="Special:Contributions/Baseball Bugs">carrots</a>→ <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Humanities#c-Baseball_Bugs-20250121113100-2003:D5:AF0E:DE00:95C4:DF2F:3B13:850E-20250121074200" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">11:31, 21 January 2025 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Baseball_Bugs-20250121113100-2003:D5:AF0E:DE00:95C4:DF2F:3B13:850E-20250121074200"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20250121113100","author":"Baseball Bugs","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Baseball_Bugs-20250121113100-2003:D5:AF0E:DE00:95C4:DF2F:3B13:850E-20250121074200","replies":["c-2003:D5:AF0E:DE00:C4C7:395C:56A3:A782-20250121165900-Baseball_Bugs-20250121113100","c-Khajidha-20250122135100-Baseball_Bugs-20250121113100"]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Baseball_Bugs-20250121113100-2003:D5:AF0E:DE00:95C4:DF2F:3B13:850E-20250121074200"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-2003:D5:AF0E:DE00:C4C7:395C:56A3:A782-20250121165900-Baseball_Bugs-20250121113100"></span>Thank you very much for your reply, much appreciated! I didn't know the deadline was in the proposal itself. I'm not sure I'm convinced that this should make a difference, since for as long as the proposed Amendment is no part of the Constitution, it really is <i>not</i> part of the Constitution and should not be able to inform or affect other provisions of the Constitution.

In my experience, Google searching for quote authentication has to be done intelligently. Misattribution of quotes has become the thing the internet and social media does best, so there's a lot of misattributed rubbish out there (and there's a select group of people who seem to get most of the undeserved credit: Oscar Wilde, Mahatma Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, Mark Twain, Will Rogers ...).

I noticed one of the names discussed on an old map, and added to that discussion, but the help desk suggested I ask a new question, so here it is. What is the origin of the name found on this map: <a href="/wiki/File:1855_Spruner_Map_of_Australia_and_Polynesia_with_an_overview_of_Discoveries_and_Colonization_-_Geographicus_-_AustraliaPolynesia-spruner-1855.jpg" title="File:1855 Spruner Map of Australia and Polynesia with an overview of Discoveries and Colonization - Geographicus - AustraliaPolynesia-spruner-1855.jpg">1855 map</a> listing a <i>Curé</i> island west of Pearl and Hermes. It also has "it" as Ouro, which is Portuguese for Gold. The second part of the question, is it possible there was an island west of Kure, that corresponds to something like the Hancock Seamount (<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.fao.org/4/a0337e/A0337E281.jpg">northwest of kure</a>) but has since collapsed into the sea but several hundred years ago might of been there? I find it odd so many islands were found west of Kure Atoll, and there is a clear mechanism they could be submerged is Kure is the farthest north coral atoll, beyond this the corals would likely die and stop the island growing. Secondly, the sea level has risen in the last centuries. Were they simply a midentification Kure, midway, etc.?

id="c-Chipmunkdavis-20250130063400-Rennie_Garden_1862_Act_of_Parliament"></span>Hello, according to an inscription at Rennie Garden (trying to figure out if it's notable), it states "in 1862 the Corporation of London secured the preservation of this garden, through an Act of Parliament" (can be read <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.londonremembers.com/memorials/rennie-garden">here</a> in full). The few sources I've found repeat this claim, without any details. We have <a href="/wiki/List_of_acts_of_the_Parliament_of_the_United_Kingdom_from_1862" title="List of acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1862">List of acts of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1862</a>, which touts itself as a "complete list". Unfortunately, the City of London is mentioned only once, the Corporation not at all, and the London-related bills seem to be all railways. I suppose it could be a railway bill given the location, but any ideas as to where more information could be found?

He is quoted as saying, "I always though the bar at the pub was the most photographed item that we had here, but no, everybody wants to take a picture of my bus stop with a Maccas sign next to it." Perhaps we should interpret this as a bus stop "coming soon" at his hotel.  ‑‑<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Lambiam#top" title="User talk:Lambiam">Lambiam</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Humanities#c-Lambiam-20250202073200-Nyttend-20250201193100" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:32, 2 February 2025 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Lambiam-20250202073200-Nyttend-20250201193100"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20250202073200","author":"Lambiam","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Lambiam-20250202073200-Nyttend-20250201193100","replies":[]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Lambiam-20250202073200-Nyttend-20250201193100"></span></dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading1"><h1 id="February_2" data-mw-thread-id="h-February_2-20250202054400"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-February_2-20250202054400"></span>February 2<span data-mw-comment-end="h-February_2-20250202054400"></span></h1><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Humanities&amp;action=edit&amp;section=42" title="Edit section: February 2"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONDESKTOP__{&quot;headingLevel&quot;:2,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;h-Ohanian-20250202054400&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;heading&quot;,&quot;level&quot;:0,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;h-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA-February_2-20250202054400&quot;,&quot;replies&quot;:[&quot;c-Ohanian-20250202054400-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA&quot;],&quot;text&quot;:&quot;How can Trump impose tariff on Canada when it is part of NAFTA&quot;,&quot;linkableTitle&quot;:&quot;How can Trump impose tariff on Canada when it is part of NAFTA&quot;}--><h2 id="How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA" data-mw-thread-id="h-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA-February_2-20250202054400"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA-February_2-20250202054400"></span>How can Trump impose tariff on Canada when it is part of NAFTA<span data-mw-comment-end="h-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA-February_2-20250202054400"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Humanities&amp;action=edit&amp;section=43" title="Edit section: How can Trump impose tariff on Canada when it is part of NAFTA"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-Ohanian-20250202054400","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA-February_2-20250202054400","replies":["c-Ohanian-20250202054400-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA"]}}--><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"><!--__DTLATESTCOMMENTTHREAD__{"id":"c-Baseball_Bugs-20250202180100-Xuxl-20250202112000","timestamp":"20250202180100"}__--><!--__DTCOMMENTCOUNT__4__--><!--__DTAUTHORCOUNT__4__--></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONMOBILE__{&quot;headingLevel&quot;:2,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;h-Ohanian-20250202054400&quot;,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;heading&quot;,&quot;level&quot;:0,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;h-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA-February_2-20250202054400&quot;,&quot;replies&quot;:[&quot;c-Ohanian-20250202054400-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA&quot;],&quot;text&quot;:&quot;How can Trump impose tariff on Canada when it is part of NAFTA&quot;,&quot;linkableTitle&quot;:&quot;How can Trump impose tariff on Canada when it is part of NAFTA&quot;}--></div></div></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Ohanian-20250202054400-How_can_Trump_impose_tariff_on_Canada_when_it_is_part_of_NAFTA"></span>How can Trump impose tariff on Canada when both countries are part of NAFTA?
