thread_title: Der Alte?

message: The article says that Adenauer was forced to resign after the Spiegel scandal. What confuses me is that this scandal took place in November 1962, yet Adenauer remained Chancellor until October 1963. How can it be that he remained in office so long?
:Adenauer did not resign because of the Spiegel scandal (only defense minister Franz Joseph Strauß was forced to resign due to the scandal). He resigned because of a promise made in 1961 (forced upon him by the FDP as a condition to form a coalition with Adenauer's CDU/CSU)  that he would resign before the next elections (which were in 1965). The scandal may have put additional pressure on him to keep his promise, but it wasn't the main reason for his resignation.--141.100.201.16 (talk) 11:47, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: In simple terms: He refused to offer recognition to the rival German government of East Germany, and disputed the status of the Oder–Neisse line as the new border between East Germany and the Polish People's Republic. Remember the border was decided in negotiations between the two communist states, and West Germany was not part of these negotiations. Dimadick (talk) 01:14, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Märkischer Kreis

message: The page should be called "Märkischer Kreis" as that is the name of the district when standing alone. I guess it was moved to "Märkische Kreis" because of the introductory sentence. It lacks the "r" there in mixing german and english grammar (the german sentence would have been "Der Märkische Kreis ist..."). But I am not sure if that is the correct way to add german words into an english sentence. andy 21:44 9 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Talk:Cat Scratch Fever

message: ok maybe it's just me, but isnt "cat scratch fever" about venhereal diseases? getting infected by a "pussy"?
:It's possible, but I think "cat scratch fever" actually refers to the feeling that he gets when he sees the ladies. It's a fever that he gets from the ladies. --Tony Feld (talk) 00:17, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: For Ted's sake, the song primarily refers to the real cat scratch fever (i.e. infections kiddies get from scratches), since the lyrics state that he was 10 years old when he first got it. Secondly, there is also the image of hot women (cats) scratching your back during sexual frenzy.

Talk:Paper size

message: ‎I reverted an IP's edit with summary: "Standardized American paper sizes. Comparison against ISO sizes was bias in assuming the base had no--arbitrary--reasoning behind it while ANSI claims it was to reduce waste." This misses the point. Apparently (the ANSI blog tells us) the original "Letter" paper size was chosen as way (somehow?) to save waste. But this does not mean that they carefully chose a 17:11 aspect ratio for a particular reason. (Perhaps it was all to do with standard sizes of large paper sheets.) Whereas the 1:√2 ratio was chosen specifically to make half-sheets the same shape. In these terms, the 17:11 ratio is entirely arbitrary. Imaginatorium (talk) 16:01, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reverting ref to ANSI blog 

message: The article writes, "The JIS A-series is identical to the ISO A-series except that it has slightly different tolerances." However, I've noticed that since 2019, this seems to formally not be the case. https://kikakurui.com/p/index.html lists 2 articles for JISP0138:1998, that based on using machine translation seem to say that the tolerances are identical to what Wikipedia lists for ISO 216, and notes that they have "harmonized" the standard for tolerances in the second article. There's also a number of web pages pre-dating 2019 that list tolerances for JIS P 0138 that are identical to ISO 216, so I'm guessing while it wasn't official it was just easier for companies to adopt the same standard as ISO for a while now. Anyways, can someone source a more official location for the JIS P 0138 documents?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.249.80.247 (talk) 05:07, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
thread_title: JIS tolerances

message: I noticed the page has two diagrams that are almost duplicates--one that illustrates A sizes in comparison with US sizes at the top, and one that illustrates A sizes alone in the A series section. At first I was thinking of removing the one that has just the A sizes and moving the A sizes with comparison in its place since it has more information, but now I'm thinking that the one with just A sizes needs to be where it is, since the US sizes are just for comparison and not part of the A series. Anyone have any ideas how to make this better, or is it already good as it is? Zidane2k1 (talk) 16:56, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Spectral envelope

message: There's some ambiguity in the purpose of this page (an important topic, imo).  Has Spectroscopy Project has laid clame to it?  The definition comes from the citation by Schwartz, using the term in an acoustic context.  I'm not invested in any particular context, but I think the scope should be made clear.  For now, I'll assume its more broad interpretation.  Jimmy Hers (talk) 02:58, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

message: I'm trying to figure out exactly what an envelope is and find the current definition unclear: 
:"A spectral envelope is a curve in the frequency-amplitude plane, derived from a Fourier magnitude spectrum. It describes one point in time (one window, to be precise)." 
Is the following a correct interpretation?
:A spectral envelope is a curve in the frequency-amplitude plane of a time series at one point in time within the series.  Such a curve is most easily derived by conversion of a window bracketing a point in time to the frequency domain by application of a Fourier transform. Jimmy Hers (talk) 02:58, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

message: Wikipedia has a data glove page, which offers basically the same info as this one. I think they should be merged.
Also, the names Dataglove and Cyberglove are trademarked, by Virtual Technologies Inc. and Sun respectively. The generic name of this kind of devices is wired glove. What about making a "Wired glove" page, where ALL the info about this kind of devices goes, and making all the "Cyberglove", "Dataglove" etc. pages redirect to it?

Talk:Ambient music

message: I removed the mention of Blind Willie Johnson's "Dark Was the Night" as an example of ambient music. 
1. This is factually wrong. Whatever the article cited said, that music is not ambient. It's one of my favorite pieces of music. I have huge respect for it. But it is not ambient.
2. This is confusing to the reader. It doesn't communicate what ambient is.
This is the text I removed:
> According to a 1998 article in The Wire, Blind Willie Johnson's 1928 single "Dark Was the Night, Cold Was the Ground" could be filed under ambient music, deeming it "a piece of country gospel improvisation, slide guitar with vocal hums and moans, but no lyrics."
