Talk:Lotus Eleven

message: In the last few years efforts have been made by several people to correct basic errors in the current (as of May, 2011) description of the Lotus Eleven, but these efforts have been blocked by others for reasons unknown. It should be seen as fair and appropriate to bring these differences out in the open and discuss what the problems might be. For example:
-- The Lotus Eleven Series 2 was never referred to as the Lotus 13, and why the assertion otherwise is so prominent in the Wikipedia entry is baffling. Lotus never had a type 13, and the supposition that the Eleven S-2 was that is not based on facts. Why not call the Lotus 3b the Lotus 4, or the Elite S-2 the type 15 or some other number?  Even the Series 1 designation for the Eleven came at a later date, to differentiate it from the S-2. An Eleven is either just that or an Eleven S-2.
-- The Eleven LeMans was usually fitted with a Coventry Climax FWA 1100cc engine. The car was designed for this engine and horsepower output, although it obviously could handle more. About twenty Elevens were fitted with Climax FWB engines (1500cc) and they did just fine with them. But the assertion that "LeMans" Elevens were generally 1500c (supported only by a single coffee-table book as reference) doesn't change the facts. Factory records, contemporary and preserved histories, and anecdotal evidence show the vast majority of Elevens with Climax engines had FWAs. Remember, the car dominated the 1100cc class worldwide, and they did it then with just an 1100cc engine. 
-- Why is the description of this vintage racing car allowed to be a lead-in to a commercial advert for a replica? The description of the Westfield as a faithful copy of the real thing is laughable. Another two hundred pounds and lower horsepower? Chapman and those who helped him design the Eleven would be sick if they saw this nonsense. The flattery of imitation is one thing, but to group an agricultural-tech replica with what was a cutting-edge milestone among racing cars is not truth but silliness. 
The entire description of the Eleven is worthy of a complete re-write. My question is who is going to try and obstruct this. If the points raised above (and there are more) can be challenged, this would be a good place for those who have thus far blocked corrective efforts to state their cases.

thread_title: Untitled

message: My hunch is that the Thomas Beaumont who purchased the puteal in 1827 was Thomas Richard Beaumont (1758-1829), married to Diana Wentworth, daughter of Sir Thomas Wentworth, 5th Bt. (Burke's Peerage), immensely rich, enlarging and improving Bretton Hall. His son, Thomas Wentworth Beaumont (1792-1848), had suffered a ruinously expense bid for re-election to Parliament just the year before, in 1826; it cost him £40,000 and was the subject of a duel (Bretton Hall archives). T. W. Beaumont was so strapped for cash when he inherited in 1829 that he sold off almost all the contents of Bretton Hall in 1832 (Bretton Hall archives), though apparently not the immovable puteal.

message: Some bacteria can use both elemental sulfur and sulfate as a source of energy.
How can sulfate SO42- be used as energy source? You can't oxidize it further, as far as I know. For example, in anammox, Brocadia uses NO2- as electron donor - just my association. It (sulfate) can be used as e- acceptor, as in sulfate reducing bacteria, though.

thread_title:  BiH coastline 

message: I'm surprised to see the term "nationality" in the 2013 census results, which supposedly indicated that almost 98% of the population were "Croats" and fewer than 2% either "Bosniaks" or "Serbs". This suggests that almost all the inhabitants of this Bosnian town are foreign nationals, which if so would surely be a world record. You would also expect such an overwhelming majority of Croats to have called for Neum to secede from Bosnia and join Croatia, solving in one fell swoop the current problem of Croatia's division into two parts by this tiny intrusion of Bosnian territory, with time-consuming border checks at both ends (Bosnia is not in the EU, whereas Croatia is) - a problem Croatia is now attempting to tackle by building the costly and controversial Pelješac bridge across the entrance to Neum's harbour. What I suspect is that most of Neum's people are in fact Bosnian nationals, though this is not indicated anywhere in the article. Like other Bosnians they may consider themselves either Bosniaks (i.e. Muslims), Serbs or Croats, but that is surely not the same thing as "nationality" (even if that is the literal translation of the term used on the census forms). It is also significant that the percentage of people calling themselves "Croats" rose substantially (from 87%) and the percentage of people calling themselves "Bosniaks" or "Serbs" fell substantially (from just under 10%) since the 1991 census - held in the year that war broke out in the former Yugoslavia, eventually spreading to Bosnia. The difference could be explained by the unsurprising tendency of displaced Croats from elsewhere in Bosnia to concentrate in areas with a large Croatian majority, as close as possible to Croatia proper, and the equally unsurprising tendency of Bosniaks and Serbs to move away from such areas.
Anyway, I feel that a less ambiguous term than "nationality" should be used here - such as "stated ethnic affiliation".213.127.210.95 (talk) 15:38, 5 March 2018 (UTC)
