Talk:Gamebird hybrids

message: The hybrids page had links to non-existent pages about chicken, peafowl, guineafowl pages.  I have photos and info on these that I could contribute to fill the gap.  Rather than create separate pages for each, I created gamebird hybrids to cover hybrids between gamebirds, including their hybrids with domestic fowl (will add more on duck hybrids later).  Info is derived from that on my own pages on hybrid birds, including own photos.  This is not copyvio (will add the GFDL statement to my personal webpage on its next update to keep licensing tidy).Messybeast 09:57, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

message: This article has bounced around a bit today, including between Derek Dooley (football coach) and Derek Dooley (American football coach). I agree with the use of the word American in the article name. The disambiguation is needed from Derek Dooley (footballer), who is connected with association football (or soccer, for American readers). Wikipedia:Naming conventions (sportspeople) has the convention that soccer players who are not American or Canadian are referred to as footballers, and athletes connected with American football should have American football as the disambiguation text.
Accordingly, while I think Derek Dooley (American football) would also be an acceptable title, Derek Dooley (American football coach) does the job very well—and better than Derek Dooley (football coach). —C.Fred (talk) 22:09, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

message: What am I missing here? It looks like the equation as written doesn't preclude the received power being greater than the transmitted power.
:\frac{P_r}{P_t} = \left( \frac{A_r A_t}{d^2\lambda^2 } \right)
Quick test, so what if A_r is 10 square centimeter, A_t is 10 square centimeter, d is one meter (100 cm), lambda is 1 cm
(10*10)/(100^2*0.01^2)= 100.

replies: text: Thanks for the citation. I'm still not sure what I'm reading. Can you give a top-level summary of how the receiver can receive more power than the amount transmitted? Skepticalgiraffe (talk) 13:47, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
replies: text:  In the original Friis transmission formula, P_r is the power available at the antenna port. This power available at the port of the receiving antenna, also referred to as "available power" at this port, is the greatest average power that can be drawn from this port by an arbitrary linear time-invariant (LTI) and passive load (see the Section I of ). It is well known that such an LTI passive load has an impedance equal to the complex conjugate \overline{Z_A} of the impedance Z_A presented by the receiving antenna. Thus, P_r is not the power delivered to the actual load of the receiving antenna, but the power that would be delivered by the receiving antenna if the impedance of this load was \overline{Z_A}. As you see, P_r and P_t correspond to different circuits. This is why power conservation does not prevent P_r from being larger than P_t. FreddyOfMaule (talk) 09:31, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Deutscher Werkbund

message: At one point "Deutscher" is misspelled as "Deutsche" (I've already corrected this). Since - unlike German - English doesn't inflect its nouns and adjectives, there's no reason to follow German inflections when writing in English. Since names never inflect in English, and English-speaking readers wouldn't expect them to, it would be confusing to change the endings of words whenever this would happen in German - in this case from "Deutscher Werkbund" to "the Deutsche Werkbund", just because in German it would be "Deutsche" after the definite article "Der". And in fact the organisation is referred to as "the Deutscher Werkbund" elsewhere in this article, so perhaps "the Deutsche Werkbund" is simply a typo. I see that the three Scandinavian language versions of this article don't add on their own definite articles at the end of the name - they simply call it "Deutscher Werkbund" throughout, rather than trying to turn it into "Deutscher Werkbunden" (or "Werkbundet"?), which really would be confusing! Perhaps there's a Wikipedia editing rule somewhere about this and similar problems, but if so I wouldn't know where to find it.31.15.247.228 (talk) 09:27, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

If my interpretation is correct, then the statement is false. Martin Opitz's Buch von der deutschen Poeterey was published in 1624, as is stated in the Optiz entry in Wikipedia and many other sources (including the text of Buch von der deutschen Poeterey on Project Gutenberg).

thread_title:  Sloppy Article 

message: Hello Friends. The section on the Perry Expedition and Aftermath contains the following sentence, which appears to be identical to a sentence in the entry for Matthew C. Perry. I will repost a comment I posted on the Talk page for that article: "In 1852, Perry was assigned a mission by American President Millard Fillmore to force the opening of Japanese ports to American trade, through the use of gunboat diplomacy if necessary." This statement clearly indicates that Fillmore, and by implication Pierce after him, authorized Perry to use gunboat diplomacy, in other words, threats and force. It is my understanding that the US government expressly forbade Perry to use threaten or to use force against the Japanese except in self-defense. The citation given for the reference to gunboat diplomacy is to "J. W. Hall, Japan, p.207." This citation is incomplete, as it does not cite the date of publication or the edition, and there is no further bibliographic description elsewhere at the foot of the page. It is clear, however, that the editor in question meant to cite Hall's "Japan: From Prehistory to Modern Times," for Hall wrote no other book with a similar title. I have the 8th (1978) printing of the original 1968 edition, and although the book is still on sale online, it appears to be a 2002 reprint of the same original 1968 edition since the pagination of both (and other printings) are the same. Despite a thorough search, I can find no indication that the book was ever revised and therefore assume that the pagination of the above citation and my own copy are identical. At any rate, page 207 of Hall's book discusses events more than a century before Perry's visit and makes no mention of Perry's mission. No other reference to Perry in the index leads to any statement indicating that the US government authorized Perry to use threats or force. Just to be clear, historians do widely agree that Perry did use bluffs and even ignored Pierce's order to decrease his squadron of ships to avoid seeming to threaten. The point, however, and my understanding, is that in making his bluffs and trying to seem threatening, and thus in using gunboat diplomacy, Perry was acting ultra vires. For these reasons, in the absence of additional citations, I feel the sentence as it stands, implying as it does that Fillmore authorized Perry's use of gunboat diplomacy, should be revised to reflect that such actions were taken on Perry's own initiative. Many thanks for your attention. Gunnermanz (talk) 09:30, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
