Talk:Recirculating ball

message: So can anyone discuss the merits of rack & pinion system over the recirculating ball approach?--Hooperbloob 03:48, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't KNOW so I'm going to have to write this here but I think the main advantage of rack and pinion steering can go from lock to lock in fewer steering wheel turns. Also, on the BMW E39, every one used rack and pinion except the V8s because the larger engines meant a rack and pinion system was too large. Chrisjwowen (talk) 19:36, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: The recirculating ball type is used in off-road vehicles and trucks because it's stronger and more durable.  The rack-and-pinion type has to be replaced from time to time since they get bent or broken with hard use. Santamoly (talk) 06:20, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  I would term that instead as, "the obsolete and imprecise recirculating ball steering box has lasted longer in off-road vehicles, where its limitations are less obvious and its compact shape less prone to impact damage". These aren't really advantages, it's just easier to live with the disadvantages off-road. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:47, 19 April 2016 (UTC)

Who granted Vračarević dan ranks?  In what branches of Aikido? When?  How did he become 10th dan?  Is his style recognized by anyone else but him?  What are his ranks in Judo, JuJitsu and other martial arts referenced?    What diploma did Goza Shioda give Vračarević?

message: Morihiro Saito was 9th dan and even the instructors at Aikikai Hombu Dojo do not include any 10th dans, so I think it's highly unlikely that Ljubomir Vračarević is 10th dan.

message: The text was composed by Harry E. Nursten, Emeritus Professor of Food Science, University of Reading specifically as a contribution to Wikipedia and was wikified by me. Sinclair's ideas about essential fatty acids were generally scorned when first propounded and may have impeded his academic advancement, but seem to have been vindicated by recent scientific findings. His work on the famine associated with World War II has some interesting twists. For example, he was instrumental in getting many children to take cod liver oil daily.

There was no First Presidency between May 30 and June 5 1994. The infoboxes should not imply continuous service when that's inaccurate.

thread_title:  Recent citations 

message: The junction of IL 171 and I-355 is in an unincorporated area between Lockport, Lemont, and Homer Glen. Judging from the official IDOT map of Will County, last revised 2010-04-21, retrieved 2012-07-01 it is closer to a piece of Lockport than either of the other two towns. I-355 incorporated its junctions with IL 171  and 143rd Street into a single, long interchange. Sections of this interchange are within Lockport city limits. OTOH, it could also be listed as Homer Township, since it is in an unincorporated area.
The junction of IL 171 and US 12/20/45 is clearly within Willow Springs, as shown on the official IDOT map of Lyons Township, last revised 1997-12-31, retrieved 2012-07-01. Though they function as a single interchange, this map shows that the border between Willow Springs and Justice neatly divides IL 171's junctions with US 12/20/45 and I-294 into two interchanges, one in Willow Springs and the other in Justice.RogerD (talk) 02:33, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Armadillo Quintero

message: According to guidelines in the Manual of Style for fiction, I do not believe Armadillo Quintero qualifies as a major character. He is by no means a cultural icon, and does not take up a considerable amount of screen time over the course of the series. The guidelines say that if you are in doubt, and especially if the article is a stub (which that is, and has little hope of being expanded) you should merge the content into a list of characters. So that's what I'm proposing. I think there are a few characters who deserve and can support articles of their own, like the Strike Team members and Dutch, but Armadillo (to me) doesn't meet the requirements.

Even Patterson is border-line, despite his long career, considering that he had his championship period at a point of low competition, lost the title against Ingemar Johansson (barely champion material) and was chanceless against Liston. Ezzard Charles, however, is most certainly not an all-time great at heavy-weight (as opposed to overall or as a light-heavy). He hit a weak era and his greatest victories are against over-the-hill versions of Louis and Walcott, who got the better of him in the end.
Or to reverse the situation: If Ezzard is a great at heavy-weight, then so is Michael Spinks and Gene Tunney.
