Talk:Floating tone

message: The definition of floating tone is too narrow. I think the example given is a special case: a floating tone which is associated with a phonologically empty morpheme.
More common, I think, are floating tones associated with an overt morpheme such as a prefix, and which dock on an adjacent vowel. For example, in Okphela, a Niger-Congo language of Nigeria, the main negative morpheme is distinguished from the present tense morpheme by tone; the present tense morpheme (á-) carries high tone, and the negative morpheme (´a-) imposes a high tone on the syllable which precedes it:
  oh á-nga 'he is climbing'         óh a-nga 'he didn't climb'
The relative clause marker of Okphela has a high tone whichs docks to the right. RCs begin with relative marker ni´ ~ n´.  The second variant of REL occurs before vowels.

Talk:Atellan Farce

message: I love the Authorship section as well as the Controversy sections.  There was a lot of fascinating material there.
The History section should be more developed.  Perhaps that is in the works during a second draft.  One possible idea is moving the Commedia del'Arte information to the History section.  I would just like to hear more about how Atellan Farce came about, how it was performed, does it effect any performance genre in the current era.
I would also be aware of saying, "Some people" or "Some historians."  Is there any historian you're talking about in particular?  This is something I believe I need to watch out more myself in my own work.

replies: text: There is even more confusion than this confusion. If I understand correctly, the interval topology (I^+(x) \cap I^-(y)) is the same as the path topology for any globally hyperbolic manifold (i.e. for any cosmology except pathological theories like Gödel metric). In a manifold with a closed time-like curve the interval topology will be coarser, likely even trivial. But the article actually mentions two topologies under the name "Alexandrov topology": the interval topology (Hausdorf) and the I^+(x) topology (a coarser, non-Hausdorf). Apparently (an original research starts here), there is also a non-Hausdorf version of the path topology. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 19:11, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

message: Not mentioned as a useful reference, see this autobiography "Ready for Sea" by H.P.K. Oram, whose remarkable Royal Navy career included his 1918-19 service as a First Lieutenant of K6 : Chapters XVI "Fleet Submarine", and XVII "Black Night" are particularly relevant. 
Shortly before Oram formally took up his K6 role, he had sailed aboard K7 during the dreadful night in which both K4 and K17 were lost with 107 killed. K6 collided with K4 fatally; last in line, K7 over-ran the sinking K4.
In his concluding Chapter XVIII, Oram observes that "K6 was never easy to control when submerged ..". 
The 1976 Futura Publications paperback edition includes two interior K6, as well as one external "steaming at speed" K-class pictures. ISBN 0 8600 7302 5
Regarding the talk item "Diesel Engines" above, Oram's last chapter specifically mentions "Life in the boiler room..". He discusses a "dirty sea" astern that was swamping into the K6 boiler room air intakes while sailing at 12 knots, so a Convoy decision was taken to switch to the K6 diesel engine propulsion, at 7 knots.
