Talk:Lotah

message: Lotah is a utensil to hold water or milk. Usually made of copper or brass, it has round shaped bottom and smaller neck. Lotah does not look like a tea pot. It is a spherical vessel. Unlike teapot it does not have a crane-like neck. It is a multi purpose utensil. - 24.62.86.79
:I moved up the above comment in the article to the proper section for now. The shape 24.62.86.79 describes still makes it "teapot" similar for me as a northern European. Over here teapots/coffepots/milkjugs come in all shapes and sizes and materials. They can be spherical, cylindrical, have six or eight corners and have a long, short or crane-like neck or no neck at all, just a short tip. They can be made of glass, cheramics or metal. And we have similar utensils for non hot content made in plastic. And it wouldn't surprise me if that utensil is used for many purposes. For instance over here many of my friends use a teapot when watering their indoors plants. So the question is if the word "lotah" specifically refers to a toilet utensil or a general "fluid container with a pouring tip". -- David Göthberg:] 02:20, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Telecommunications in Thailand

message: This doesn't differentiate between the landline and mobile service.
Having lived in Bangkok for 6 months (I'm from England, and have lived in Hong Kong for 6 months aswell, both places with mobile phones), I've found the mobile phone service here (in general; it is the same for many friends here on other network providers) to be pretty poor! I often cannot contact mobile numbers (from mobile/landline), with a frequency which increases dramatically during bad weather.
Not sure whether that would be worth mentioning in the article?

I was wondering if this was the correct place to ask why the character called Running Buffalo, who is almost literally in half the movie, yet he isn't mentioned AT ALL?

thread_title:  Biological Crosslinks 

message: Dear community, I am workng with epoxy resins, and I was very surprised to read that the IUPAC calls something a cross-link only when there are four or more chains evolving from. If you used this definition on thermosets, the entire molecular network would consist only of cross-links. We usually call it a cross-link if something (e.g., an atom) is connected to the molecular network by three bonds. For example, a primary amine that reacts twice with an epoxy group to form a tertionary amine will be a cross-link then. Wouldn't that definition be correct as well - or even more correct for that matter?--Polis Tyrol (talk) 12:36, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Magneto-calorific effect

message: The article currently claims
"The Magneto-calorific effect produces a change in temperature when a ferromagnetic object temperature crosses the Curie Point. Above the Curie Point the material becomes merely paramagnetic, this phase transition to the paramagnetic state can be exploited to turn heat into electricity."
This seems obviously wrong to me.
Say I cool some object, starting above the Curie transition temperature, cooling it until it is below the Curie transition temperature. *Of course* that object will now be colder than when I started. But it seems to me that *I* am cooling that object.
Unfortunately, I don't know enough about Magnetic refrigeration to fix the article.
(I thought that the Curie transistion temperature is constant, but perhaps it shifts slightly depending on something else? Like what? Barometric pressure? Electric field?)

message: I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure there's an error/inconsistency between the paragraph on the "sporic life cycle" and the accompanying figure. At the very least, the description of a "spore" is missing.

thread_title:  [[Final Fantasy VIII]] Points 

message: The use of the name "Vicks" in Final Fantasy 3 US (VI) is more likely a result of a probable typo in the Japanese version than any fault on the translator's part (unless you count not recognizing the Star Wars reference a fault). Unlike every other appearance of the character in any Square game (at least according to the Japanese Wikipedia entry (Wikipedia:ビッグス&ウェッジ)), FFVI spells his name with a "ku" (Romanized to "bikkusu") instead of a "gu" ("biggusu"), making "Vicks" a reasonable guess since the Japanese "b" sound is used to approximate both English "b" and "v".
On the other hand, there's no excuse for using "Vicks" in Chrono Trigger except to make it match FFVI.
I could just edit the article... but I'd rather explain it and let someone else do the work :). Preferably someone who's registered.

I'm trying to decide on something to do with the music. Since Soul Calibur II did not give each character their own level, I'm not sure we can truly say the theme songs really belonged to anyone; they were mostly just written as background music for the stages.
