Talk:Foreshock

message: It's not clear to me how the table of examples is really helping. It's just becoming yet another list of earthquakes. Either it needs to be reorganised to provide examples from different settings - extensional, thrust and strike-slip  and a few examples perhaps of the variation in amount of delay or it should go.

Talk:Syncline

message: For such a common geological term, this article seems too short. It needs to be expanded, including a discussion about why synclines are important. Compare Anticline, which includes a (too short) discussion of the economic significance.Verne Equinox 12:58, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Expand please

message: I removed the photograph of an anticline because five photographs and one drawing of synclines seem like enough, and because even though you can see a little bit of syncline at the edge of the photograph, the picture is of an anticline and belongs in (and IS in) the anticline article.  -Ddawn23 (talk) 03:38, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Talk:ATR.1 certificate

message: The legal basis for the ATR.1 certificate is the customs union between EU and Turkey.
The certificate is NOT an origin certificate (not in any way implied by the author), which the certificate is often referred to. The certificate proves that the product or products are put in "free circulation", meaning that they have gone through the import procedure, paid any applicable tariff in either EU or Turkey and can be traded between those two countries under the customs union.
Not all products are covered by the customs union. Coal and steel, and some agricultural products are not covered by the customs union, these products are instead covered by the Free Trade Agreement between EU and Turkey.

Talk:Preston Crossing

message: A mall is an enclosed building, so therefore Preston Crossing does not qualify as a mall. "Shopping centre" is an alternative terminology, but I'm hesitant to use it because it is usually seen as synonymous with mall. This is one reason why the term "power centre" has come into vogue. 23skidoo (talk) 19:34, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

message: I am certain that at one point this centre was promoted under the name "Preston Landing", to the point where I used this name in editing several neighbourhood articles (I've corrected the name). I've done a Google search and I've seen others referring to this place as Preston Landing too (and not just sites that "borrowed" the Wikipedia material with the error). Can anyone provide a source?

Talk:Demographic threat

message: In the article Demographic Threat I plan on talking about the ethnic/ racial group of Mexicans and the most recent Syrians entering the country. I will relay the information more on a neutral stand and try to stay away from a bias approach. This section of the article will talk mainly about the major increase of the immigration from these groups and talk about the problems that have arise from this. I will mention things like wars, economic crisis, and the countries standing to be able to talk about why the increase is happening. The examples I will use for the problems that will occur our things like living spaces, employment, and Health care and other kind of care that is supported by the government.
Below are the links I will use to compile to talk about the missing information in the U.S. Section:

Talk:Oamaru stone

message: Block-setting crane#Moa describes the 1872 construction of a breakwater at Oamaru, and two civil-engineering inventions: a new form of block-setting crane with which to build it, and the invention of the powered concrete mixer in order to cast concrete blocks to use. This is put down to a shortage of useful high quality stone in the area: that which is available is either too small (too broken or faulted in the quarry) or not resistant enough for a breakwater in a rough sea.

thread_title:  Bibliography - Volcano tectonic earthquake 

message: For an Environmental Science class, I was assigned to review this article. This article stub is incomplete and doesn't particularly focus on the given topic. The article talks more about earthquakes than the specific volcanoes the article seeks to educate the reader on. Additionally, of the sources that the article offers, one of them is broken and returns a 404 error when you try to click the link. This article needs to shift away from possible causes of tectonic earthquakes to the actual event of volcano tectonic earthquakes. Additionally, the only example it gives of this phenomena is just a link to the article. There's no explanation of what it means and the article offers links to adjacent materials with no real explanation of the given topic.

Talk:USS Porter (DD-356)

message: I don't have access to a copy of Frank (1990) which is cited as the source for the assertion that the Porter was sunk by a torpedo inadvertently launched from a US Avenger torpedo bomber which ditched near Porter.  I find it extremely unlikely that a torpedo could become live as a result of a ditching of an Avenger, which carried its torpedo in an internal bomb bay.  This would require an incredible sequence of events including (a) the opening of the aircraft's bomb bay after ditching, (b) the torpedo inadvertently released after opening of the bomb bay, (c) the torpedo becoming live and armed, (d) the torpedo heading straight for the Porter without having been aimed there (or alternatively, the torpedo circling, which it was not programmed to do.) 
While the records related to Japanese submarine I-21 may not support the torpedoing of Porter by i-21, there is substantial evidence that the Porter was sunk by a torpedo launched by a submarine and not by one from the ditched Avenger.  See Hammel, Guadalcanal:  The Carrier Battles, Crown Publishers Inc., New York, 1987, pp. 411-413, which contains a detailed account of the sinking of the Porter, including (a) three eyewitness accounts (including one from an aircraft overhead) that multiple torpedoes were sighted, one passing ahead, one astern, and one hitting the Porter, (b) a description of the rescue of the Avenger crew which indicates there was significant time between the ditching of the plane and the sighting of the torpedo which hit Porter.  --Navyhistorybuff (talk) 06:56, 7 December 2013 (UTC)

They are deposited by mineral-bearing waters that move upward by capillary action and evaporate during a dry season. There are different types of duricrusts, each distinguished by a dominant mineralogy. For example, ferricrete is dominated by sesquioxides of iron; alcrete is dominated by sesquioxides of aluminium; silcrete by silica; and calcrete (caliche) by calcium carbonate." Paul H.
