Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/List of places blurred out on Google Maps

message: I'm surprised nobody has even mentioned security. That should be everyone's job to some extent. If Google Maps has been told not to provide certain images for security purposes, then I hope the high muckymucks of Wikipedia would cooperate if intelligence agencies asked for Wikipedia:Office Actions to remove this list. I hope nobody uses it as a list of good places to bomb. Art LaPella 13:56, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia is not censored. The formless possibility of governmental intervention is no reason for us to pre-emptively watch our every move. We are also not sure why (or even if) the images are manipulated by Google; we can hardly avoid begging the question if we speculate on the motives. If the Office is involved, they will handle the situation as they see fit; the public will not be invited to decide their course of action. It is best, therefore, to constrain our arguments for or against deletion based on the current content policies and guidelines. — Kaustuv Chaudhuri 14:46, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Sälen

message: I added the information about the local airport basing upon the work of our Swedish sister team : https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sälen_Trysil_Airport . But how to make a proper reference in the article? Jan olieslagers (talk) 20:36, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi. To insert a reference (footnote), you must first have a valid source (a newspaper article or similar). Then you may follow the instruction here on how to insert the source as a footnote. If the source is online, you should hyperlink it; but off-line sources (like books) are also valid and then you just write the source without hyperlinking. If you are new at this it may be a bit of try and fail, before you get it, but it's easy once you get used to it. Iselilja (talk) 22:07, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you for thinking along. I am afraid I did not word my question clearly enough: refererencing an external source is easy and clear, with < ref > < / ref > tags.

thread_title:  completely discharged lead acid battery 

message: Most articles describes Trickle Charge as a methode to keep a battery charged at a high level, quasi a counterbalance to the self-discharge. But this is not quite correct!
Trickle Charge indeed is used to recover a deep discharged battery until a sufficient state of charge for "normal charging" is reached. This is carried out by a reduced charging current (30 ... 150mA).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.154.74.51 (talk) 14:10, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Different understanding of Trickle Charge 

message: The Float voltage article does at least cite one source, but it doesn't define float voltage.  It does define float charging, which redirects to here.  So let's put the meager contents together and make it more sensible.  That source will be a good one for trickle charging.  Dicklyon (talk) 18:11, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge proposal:  [[Float voltage]] into [[Trickle charging]] 

message: Need better article content about Trickle Charge vs Float Charge. Seems like Float Charge means applying a constant (top-off) voltage, intended to keep battery fully charged. Trickle Charge seems to mean applying a rather constant (low) current, hoping that this will keep a battery fully charged -- without inadvertently overcharging, which would be bad. Which all leads to needing to understand when Trickle Charging is OK, or not so good... For example, solar chargers for cars that sit for a long time between uses -- what features would make such equipment good or bad for the life of the lead acid battery.-71.174.185.30 (talk) 16:59, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Trickle Charge vs Float Charge 

message: * Vague in that "rate" as used in the first line does not say current (in amperes). (to distinguish from float charging which is based on voltage rather than current)
* Contradictory/confusing, in that it says it is the rate that balances the self-discharge rate, but also says that it causes electrolysis (gassing) which self-discharge wouldn't. - Rod57 (talk) 22:20, 4 June 2023 (UTC)

thread_title: Move article back - article is inaccurate and misleading as is

message: Bloomberg  appears have up-to-date information, though is it "inome" or "Inome"? I'm not sure it matters much anymore, but it looks like it is supposed to be "inome" without any capitalization.
I didn't realize inome was doing business as Intelius once again (looks like the switch happened sometime last year), and some of the press is treating them as two different companies when they are not, including Geekwire. So inome dba Intelius was bought, rather than the Intelius division being spun off as a new business or two separate companies being bought out as Geekwire reports. Anyone have a different take on this? --Ronz (talk) 15:46, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Forage War

message: It has been stated above that the article exhibits bias, and another editor asked for an example. I don't know if bias is the right word, however I am troubled by the article's over reliance on David Hackett Fischer as a source. In his Washington's Crossing he wrote one paragraph on the incident at Drake's Farm and ended with the sentence, "As the Americans lay dying, the British troops brutally plundered their bodies with great violence."(p. 378) Fischer's source for this story is a magazine article from 1967, which gave no further sources as to where it (the article) got this story (Fischer, p. 538, New Jersey History, Fall-Winter, 1967, p. 227).  In the next footnote Fischer gave an issue of the Pennsylvania Packet for 1777 as a source, yet newspapers of the time did not have the kind of editorial standards we think of today. Did the incident at Drake's farm ever happen? Were the casualties merely the result of skirmishing rather than brutal plunder? There is no way of knowing unless some better source than Fischer can be found, and I suggest there is no way of knowing at all. The claim of British misbehavior at Drake's Farm may be true - or may be simple propaganda.Catherinejarvis (talk) 22:44, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
