Talk:Moo

message: Hi CK, I've noticed that you've removed the cattle reference twice now.  That reference has been on this page for a long time and if you follow the cateogory 'animal noises' you will find there are a lot of other similar articles for other animals.
Please consider not reverting.

replies: text: I only removed it once mate, an anonomous removed it the first time, with the correct edit summary "Wikipedia is not a dictionary" (editors seem to have a hard time understanding the dabs are not a repository of information, they are to designed to get you to your desired location. Someone doesn't search for cattle by typing in "moo"). The anon was correct, but the core of the problem is how we are going to deal with these animal sounds. It doesn't make sense to categorise a dab, since the "MUD text-based virtual reality system" is not an animal noise. Any ideas? And no, I won't be reverting again.--Commander Keane 11:00, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Someone could create a single page for listing animal sounds (and, it wouldn't have to be just English; so it would be a good way to expand all our horizons).  Then, Moo could DAB to the animal sound page; Cock-a-doodle-doo would redirect, etc.  Just a thought; although, I doubt that very many people wake up in the morning thinking: "What animal goes oink?  I think I'll check Wikipedia." So, the number of redirect and DAB pages can probably be kept quite small. Neier 11:39, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

text: It's shouldn't be under that category. Someone was trying to use a category as a list of animal sounds - but categories are not lists so I removed the category from the page.

Talk:Torpedo net

message: I deleted this paragraph because it doesn't seem pertinent to the topic:
"Also, major navies had already begun deploying a new class of warship named the torpedo boat destroyer (later shortened to "destroyer"). After the destroyer's successes against torpedo boats and the latter's demise as a tactical weapon, destroyers were primarily targeted against submarines, the use for which they are best known today."
The torpedo boat may have disappeared as a major torpedo-launching threat, but its disappearance was made up for by the submarine.

Talk:Richard McBride

message: I don't know if it was at the Conservative leadership nomination or at an earlier MLA nomination, but the story goes that McBride was exhorted to run by backers in the back of the hall who called out to him in the Chinook Jargon and then pulled him aside to talk things over in the same language, which was known to most long-time residents of BC.  The reason they did this was to "cut out" the non-BCers in the room from what it was they wanted to say.

Talk:General Directorate for the Protection of State Secrets in the Press

message: Isn't the image at the head of the article a bit biased, no matter how "good" it is? I am no supporter of censorship and agree with the general sentiment of the picture, but to push the anti-censorship pov might be a bit much.

replies: text: Your comparison is incorrect. In your analogy, the image is actually the image of cows slaughtered in the article slaughterhouse.

Talk:Douglas A-26 Invader

message: We have a not realiable source that says there was confusion between the two B-26s, clearly it didnt confuse the USAF as it did not have any Marauders left by 1948. So has anybody got a reliable source that explains who was confused. MilborneOne (talk) 14:48, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: An editor added a reliable ref that does support the "confusion claim", but even that source, the National Museum of the United States Air Force doesn't say whom it actually confused. Since the two aircraft were not in US service at the same time under the same designation, I can only assume the confusion was to museum staff. - Ahunt (talk) 22:10, 24 December 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably mainly kids and generalist journalists who get confused. :) But I don't doubt there is some confusion, as both are WWII era aircraft, regardless of when the designations where used. I do remember someone on Wikipedia confusing the two within the past few years, so it does happen. BilCat (talk) 02:53, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Disambiguation is already in place, so surely the paragraph in the lede should be moved to the Notes section ? PeterWD (talk) 12:18, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

text: They would be referring to the general public (and not the kids - usually their granddads) - the Marauder was subject to considerable media attention during the war and so was very familiar to the public, the Invader not so much as the US media tended to provide a disproportionate amount of coverage of common, obsolete or failed types, while ignoring more capable aircraft the Germans and Japanese might want to actually know about. By the end of the war, there was little interest in piston powered medium bombers, and so the Invader barely got a mention, so people still get the two confused all the time, not having heard of the Invader. I haven't kept any of the books I have read that were specific to the A-26, but I recall seeing the confusion being mentioned more than once, perhaps in the more generalist sources. - NiD.29 (talk) 12:08, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

message: this sentence :
"The electrons are formed by collision with nitrogen because nitrogen exhibits a low excitation energy, so it is easy to remove electron from nitrogen molecule. "
The electron comes from the radioactive emitter, that why it is used... so what does this sentence mean ? The collision between nitrogen and what ?

replies: text: I agree. The sentence is very confusing. What happens is that the primary electron from the radioactive source releases many more electrons by collision with nitrogen.

message: Why should "Circus" be "misleading in this context"? There are others as such in London - Oxford, Piccadilly (although now the statue of Eros stands in its centre, wasn't always so), Cambridge. The modern roundabout is predated by "this context". I don't see why that modern version should lead to such a comment: surely the historical aspect should?

Although the term circus has been used around the world in various places for a circular intersection, it is most common in England and almost unknown around the rest of the world where other terms like roundabout are common. Without a clarification for people unfamiliar with the word being used in this way, it becomes extremely confusing as for most of us, a circus is where you go to see circus animals and clowns.
