Talk:Ela Gandhi

message: The Gandhi genealogy site lists her birth year as 1940, while her ANC biography lists her birth year as 1950.  --Blainster 22:17, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Note the mention of her being 12 years old in 1952, and the start of her social work career in 1965 (much more likely at age 25 than 15 since she attended university and recieved two bachelor's degrees.) So it seems the ANC biography, which is obviously sketchy anyway, was in error. I've reverted my edits to reflect July 1, 1940 as DOB. Glenn4pr 04:15, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Lockheed CL-400 Suntan

message: It is my opinion that this should not be redirected from suntan as the use of suntan with aircraft is likely unheard of.  I'm ex air force and son of a 21 year vet, never heard of the SR-71 called "suntan".  Even so, there are no cites, no real information or way to verify the info, and not enough information to justify a seperate article and a redirect.   I have removed the redirect for now.
I also feel it should be merged into SR-71 Blackbird as a subsection rather than be a stand alone article for the same reasons, along with the proper cites to substantiate the claims.

Talk:Index calculus algorithm

message: What a great algorithm, and well described!  It seems like the discrete

thread_title: [Untitled]

message: Although they're generally similar in run-time charactersitics, isn't the number field sieve actually faster for solving the duiscrete log in GF(p)?  (See the Chris Studholme paper for a description; it's not just a factorization algorithm.)  The index calculus algorithm is particularly fast for GF(2n), or generally GF(pn) for small p and large n, so it might beat out NFS there.
The index calculus algorithm has the great advantage that most of the computation is independent of the number to be solved for, so once you've completed stages 1 & 2, you can solve a particular discrete log problem quickly.

*Sir Kingsley Wood.  A talk to The Eltham Society by John Kennett, Thursday 6th December 2007
*Barnett, Correlli, The Audit of War, pub Macmillan, 1986, and Papermac, 1987, .
Of these (1) and (2) bring out Wood's achievement introducing PAYE for income tax (which we still have), and Post War Credits [Morrison disapproved of that because it tied that hands of the post-war Labour Government].
(1) Also brings out Wood's achievement glamorising the Post Office when he was postmaster general
In (3) Kingsley Wood emerges as the one great hero who opposed the 'new Jerusalem' ideas of Beveridge.   [Barnett seems to have regarded the implementation of Beveridge's ideas as a national disaster for Britain.]

Talk:Jimmy Velvet

message: The period when the two worked together is not clear. Did Mullins ever use the Velvet spelling on a release? Which releases did they collaborate on? Mullins used the Velvit name from the start in 1960.
Mullins' releases of "We Belong Together" can be recognized by "I'm Gonna Try" on the flip side - except for Velvet #201. On that one Tennant sang both the same songs. That may be where he started to take Mullins' place.
I don't see such a thing as listing references for the article. There is no definitive reference source, and presumably this can be it. How could I list things like LP covers, news articles, internet articles, letters from Velvet's associates etc?

There is no hard evidence for the decisive role played by the 4th Marquis. He seems to hide behind the committee where other members of the local gentry (Sir Robert Bateson) or nobility play the honorary roles. There is however his portrait with the tower in the background. His presence at the laying of the foundation stone and the absence of his stepmother at this ceremony seem to point to some lack of collaboration.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Johannes Schade (talk • contribs) 13:33, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
