thread_title:  Navy 

message: *Hello all. I've found this article today pretty much by accident, while using the search function to find the Armed Forces of Malta article. Since that other article felt short and unfinished and this main AFM article was getting a bit too long, I've decided to move the detailed information on the Air Wing from this main AFM article to the other one. I hope no one minds. Go over and take a look at it, if you like. I've preserved most of the original text and structure from both the older version of that article and the material copied from the Air Wing section in this AFM article. If anyone has any ideas or criticisms, feel free to voice them. --ZemplinTemplar (talk) 21:11, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

message: Just wondering, should Tuan Le be considered a French professional poker player since he was born in France or an American since he won his big tournaments in America? - Super Mario
* It's always debatable, but if you think about it, Tony G and Joe Hachem are considered Australian, Scotty Nguyen, Men Nguyen and many more are considered American, despite none of them being born there. This said, Carlos Mortensen lives in America but is usually considered Spanish. Likewise with Phil Laak who lives in the US but is usually considered Irish. When in doubt I tend to just use the definition in The Hendon Mob's database. Essexmutant 10:22, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Tuan Le is a friend of a friend of mine. He's of Vietnamese ethnicity, unless I'm mistaken; was born in France, raised in America; very much doubt he considers himself "French" in anyway, and may contact him about this. Alexander 007 23:34, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Prostitution in China

message: Is it appropriate to use female pronouns to refer to prostitutes in China...I know that the vast majority are probably women but are there transgendered and cross-dressing male prostitutes like in much of the rest of the world? Sure same as the she´s of Mongolia who are desperate for the legalization of prostitution. Modern Mongolian women who had the pure Mongol race killed for this reason as they prevented them by their law not to be sold  want to prostitute themselves internationally for a dollar per customer for life they also do not want to bear any children to be acceptable to any type of pimp even if illegal.
Look into sources pertaining to male Mongolian prostitution, or find sources that explain why Mongolian men would not engage or rarely engaged in prostitution. How did Mongolian women migrate to China for the sex work industry? How long would they remain at their brothels? Or would they perform solo work?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thompsts (talk • contribs) 23:32, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Red Hill, Australian Capital Territory

message: I feel this article would benifit from splitting Red Hill (the hill) from the suburb article. Photos of rocks located on the hill is way too much detail in an article nominally about a suburb. --Martyman-(talk) 05:32, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Currently the article to my mind is both about the suburb and the hill/ridge as per the introductory paragraph which mentions both.  The article is not yet of excessive length.  It is still very much in development and certainly needs improvement.  As it improves I hope the balance will also improve and it will become more coherent.

Talk:Subtraction without borrowing

message: * Only the basic algorithm for subtraction without borrowing is described here. In practice it is not always necessary to reduce by 1 the leftmost digit of the minuend, which is greater than the corresponding digit of the subtrahend. For example, consider
      65435
    - 23194
      -----
: In this case it is sufficient to change the third digit of the minuend from a 4 to a 3 and then the 35 to 99. The new minuend is then 65399 and the difference is 65435 – 65399 = 36, which equals to 35 + 1.
* I have heard from an elementary-school teacher that this method is the standard subtraction method that is taught in Portugal's elementary schools. So far I was unable to corroborate her information. I will appreciate it very much, if anyone, who knows how subtraction is or was taught in Portuguese schools, would contribute his or her knowledge here.
