Talk:McLaren MP4/15

message: Both this article and the Ferrari F1-2000 article say/suggest that the McLaren was faster but the Ferrari was more reliable (thereby enabling Schumacher and Ferrari to claim the championships). But if you look at the results tables, there are 5 retirements for the McLaren versus 8 for the Ferrari. Of course, it could be more complicated than that - some of the Ferrari retirements may have been caused by the drivers or team rather than mechanical unreliability, or the McLarens may have suffered from reliability problems which slowed them down but didn't cause outright retirements, but regardless, do we have a source to back up what's written in the articles?

replies: text: When I originally wrote this article, I was thinking specifically of the Schumacher-Häkkinen duel, in which Schumacher had two mechanical retirements and Häkkinen three during the season (including the memorable engine failure at the US GP nearing the climax of the championship).  However, Coulthard only had one mechanical retirement (unless his DQ from the Brazilian GP is also included), compared to Barrichello's two, so I'll change the articles accordingly.--Diniz(talk) 21:55, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

message: Trawling through Wikipedia I noticed this article was not written in the way that an encyclopedia article would be, so I'm flagging it as being written in an informal tone. Before removing this tag please discuss on this talk page and give reasons.
This article also obviously lacks research due to the fact that it says he was born in 'a long hot summer'. I can't find an exact date in a quick google search, in short I don't care that much, but if anyone can fix it up that'd be great.

message: I've created this article, mostly as a stop-gap measure to prevent an ugly redlink in vestigial structure.  As far as I can tell, none of the obvious articles dealing with this area existed prior to that, but I might have missed one.
My list of candidates would be:
*continuous variation - currently redirects here
*discontinuous variation - currently redirects here
*continuous vs discrete
*principle of continuous variation - I believe this is a synonym
*discretization - specialised mathematical article
Feel free to choose any title as a main title for the article and make this a redirect, or a short stub pointing to the new article;  I'm just fighting the redlinks.

message: I can find no evidence to prove that Tim was born on 13 May 1965 in Ventura (which is in Ventura County), California. According to the California Birth Index, no person named Tim (or Timothy) and no male person named Chapman was born 13 May 1965 in Ventura County. Therefore, information about the place of birth of the subject of this article must be considered erroneous. Unlike Tim, there is evidence of his brother's and sister's births in Ventura County. 
I changed the "Personal Life and Career" section, but cannot alter the main summary. I also added some additional information in this section, but none of it is verifiable, so someone may wish to change it all back. What I added comes only from Tim's personal knowledge and recollections.

thread_title: Untitled

message: It is typical for the article-writers on Wikipedia discographies to list up many more singles with each artist than really exists. 
The reason for this I believe is that the writers doesn't understand the difference between stock copies (i.e. records sold through shops) and promo copies (i.e. free records sent to reviewers and radio DJs - all of them stamped with 'Not For Sale'). They are usually just exact copies of forthcoming singles sent out shortly before the single release. But sometimes entirely different titles are sent out to promote the album). If listing all these entirely different titles one can often double the total number in an artificial way. 
Many of these discographies also assume that if a track is released as a video, then it's also released as a single. Correct most of the time, but not always. 
ONLY STOCK COPIES CAN COUNT AS OFFICIAL RELEASES, AND THEREFORE ONLY THEY SHOULD BE LISTED.
Why releases like Between Heaven And Hell and Live At Last is not listed together with, repectively compilations and live albums is also very strange. What is the reason for this?

Talk:Battlefield Earth (novel)

message: Just what the title says. The synopsis claims the psyclos are from other universes, but there's an intergalactic bank. I know SO MANY mistake a galaxy as another universe but... it's not. Haven't read the book itself, so yeah, are they from another universe, ie dimension, parallel reality, etc, or just another galaxy?
The bank's home office is in a different universe. The book's cosmology states there are sixteen known universes, each with its own physical laws and constants. For example, the Psychlos come from universe 1 while Earth is located in universe 16. The Galactic Bank is located in universe 3, but despite the name its operations encompass all sixteen universes. The name Galactic Bank is used as a marketing tactic to make themselves sound more local than they are. On the flip side, the Intergalactic Mining Company is the name of the company run by the Psychlos. The definition of "intergalactic" is "between two or more galaxies", and thus Intergalactic Mining Company would be the correct term, despite the fact that the galaxies reside in different universes.

thread_title: the posters

message: I know that people love to hate Atoms for Peace, but nevertheless, the focus should be on the largest and most important consequence of the speech and the subsequent policy change: civilian nuclear power for electricity generation. Yes, proliferation of nuclear weapons happened, and we can argue about whether it was, in truth, an unintended consequence, but civilian nuclear power was undoubtedly an intended consequence that was a direct result. The article makes no mention of the fact that, in addition to foreign pressures, President Eisenhower was also feeling pressure from fellow republicans to release to the free market an entire industry that, to date, had been completely within the control of the federal government. The Atomic Energy Commission was even decried as an "island of socialism".... I'm open to any discussion about adding this material, and willing to make the edits myself if there's consensus.

Talk:Time capsule (disambiguation)

message: There was a need to include Julian Barbour's concept in the disambiguation.  There was already a wikilink in the article Time pointing to Time capsule which clearly did not make sense.  I therefore added Barbour's concept here, and altered the link on the Time page afterwards. Stbalbach - you could have first checked by means of the What links here on the left of the window. Someone else has since removed it, so I will not now be reverting to my previous edit. DFH 15:24, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, two problems. It is unlikely that Julian Barbour's conception of a time capsule will have its own article. According to Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) this entry would not qualify. Dab pages are not for explaining a term, they are simply navigation aides that lead to the correct article - if the concept wouldn't have it own article, it shouldn't be listed. The second problem I see is in the Time article there is nothing wrong with linking time capsule, even though its not Julian Barbour's conception, because the concept is explained in the Time article, same sentence - wikilinks are just helpful "see also" type things they don't have to mean exactly what is being said. Another option is to make time capsule link to Julian Barbour's book article and create a stub with a short explanation of what is meant by time capsule there. -- Stbalbach 15:36, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
