Talk:Chu (river)

message: Kazakh spelling of river is Shu. Chu is the russian, Chuy or Chui the kyrgyz spelling. It should be Shu river. Alibek2030 (talk) 15:56, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It's important not simply to change any internal links from Chu River to Shu River without attention to consequences, because now the link Shu River guides to a text about a river called "Shu" in China, which is not at all related to this river. So if there would be a decision to change the name of this article, all the links would have to be changed to "Shu River (China)" and "Shu River (Kyrgyzystan and Kazakhstan)" or less clumsy "Shu River (Central Asia)" ... but mayby the title "Chu River", though it reminds of Russian, nevertheless is shorter and more practical. Certainly it's a fact that only the first 115 kilometres are in Kyrgyzystan, then for 221 kilometres the river is the border between Kyrgyzystan and Kazakhstan, and the last 731 kilometres are in Kazakhstan (and no single kilometre is in Russia).

I'm unsure about the accuracy of this nowadays - it may be outdated. I'm no expert on cameras, so beware that I may be speaking out of my ass. 
However, we were shooting pretty low-light for Payne and Redemption, and it handled it beautifully.
And we had it displayed on a HD screen, so I'm unsure what other "data output" this could be talking about.
But like I said, this is totally not my field. Maybe clarify the line, for those of us who know nothing? DewiMorgan 16:33, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Burana Tower

message: Either this site addicted to travel has copied wikipedia, or the wiki author has copied it, or they are both derived from the same source.  
There are differences, but at the same time the articles read too similar to not have some common origin.  
I'm not the author, so I don't think I should be sending any GFDL notices ... but perhaps someone should think about it as it is a commercial site.
: From the page history, I think this is the composite of a lot of small edits rather than one big copy and paste from a separate site. That would suggest that it is more likely that "Addicted to Travel" copied from Wikipedia rather than the other way around. Least that's my guestimate Jztinfinity (talk) 08:52, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Ground glass

message: I noticed that there is an article on frosted glass that overlaps this one to some extent. I suppose that "ground glass" is a *specific* method of producing frosted glass.  I suppose that some ground glass surfaces are indeed produced by mechanical grinding, either with a solid abrasive or with a solid tool and powder abrasive.  Does the term "ground glass" include sand-blasted glass?  In any case, some of the appliations listed in "ground glass" (such as ambient lighting) should probably be moved to that article.  All the best, --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 20:56, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ground glass vsFrosted glass 

message: I've added a section "Poison" which refers to the use of ground-up glass (i.e., minuscule/microscopic fragments of glass) to injure people when ingested. The problem is, I'm not sure whether the concept of ground-up glass belongs in this article, which is essentially about matte glass products.
So:
(a) Should the article intro say the term "ground glass" may refer to "either matte glass or minuscule glass fragments"
(Not sure about this as the article would then be about two unrelated concepts.)
(b) Should there be a separate article for ground-up glass?
(Not sure about this as I doubt there's scope for a full article.)
hould the ground-up glass be in some other article?
(Not sure about this as I can't find another suitable article.)
NB: to the average person, I think the term "ground glass" means what I'm calling "ground-up glass".
Thoughts?

Talk:Avid Free DV

message: It is not true that copies of the software not obtained from the Avid website are useless because of the serial number. Copies are frequently distributed on CD, both by Avid resellers and by computer magazines. It is true that a serial number is required, but it doesn't matter where the software is obtained. It is possible to obtain a serial number without downloading the software, just by going through the registration process; all you have to do is cancel the download as soon as you are given the serial number.

thread_title:  Hmmmmm 

message: These two sentences are not quite accurate. Here is one sentence and reason for deleting:
* Much like a biological artery, an arterial road carries large volumes of traffic between areas in urban centres. 
This statement is applicable to freeways because relatively speaking, arterial volumes are much less than for freeways.
Here is the other sentence and reason for deleting:
* They are noted for their lack of residential entrances directly onto the road (except in older or denser communities).
The example photo that was previously provided, of the Sydney Eastern Arterial Road, shows this is not the case. This road has driveways most of its length into private garages as can be seen from Google map, aerial view for the length of this road. While newer arterial roads often have no residential garage driveways (as was indicated), the fact remains that most arterial roads do have at least some residential garage driveways today. 
Added this clause:
* Where geography permits, they are often spaced every half-mile in a grid network ...''
If you look at maps of large, flat urban areas (e.g., Los Angeles County, San Fernando Valley north of Los Angeles or Santa Clara Valley in California), you will see the arterial grid system in Google maps when zooming out to about half inch per mile of map. The freeway system is separate from this.

Talk:Fullscreen (aspect ratio)

message: With the advent of 1.78:1 television sets, as opposed to 1.33:1 ones, full-screen DVD versions of widescreen films are arguably obsolete, but some retailers (such as Wal-Mart) insists that full-screen (or 1.33:1) versions of films originally in widescreen be made available.  If a full-screen DVD is played on a 1.78:1 television set, the image would be pillarboxed (thus having vertical black bars).  If Blu-ray becomes the standards, then full screen would definitely be obsolete.  There will probably be no 1.33:1 Blu-ray discs of films originally presented in widescreen.
