Talk:Clifton station (Staten Island Railway)

message: This article currently claims:
: North of this Clifton station are the remains of the South Beach Branch cutoff and a dismantled bridge.
However, according to  the merge took place before reaching Clifton travelling northward from the end of the South Beach Branch line.  This implies that the merge switch lay to the south of Clifton not to the north.  Unless someone can find another supportive reference I would like to change "North" in the cited article sentence to "South" (i.e. as the first word in the sentence).  67.86.73.252 (talk) 03:23, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Oakwood Heights station

message: The text of this article appears to be lifted (copyvio?) from . That external reference mentions "Open cut, island platforms, beige color." (sic).  However, another editor left "2 side platforms" in the infobox and that claim appears to be backed by the image at :File:Oakwood 'Heights SIR jeh.JPG which has "ghts" on the platform name sign (indicating correct station in the photo) and clearly depicts a side platform, not an island platform. I have tagged the claim of an island platform in the article text as needing a better citation.  If none can be found in a reasonable amount of time I will switch the article text to agree with the Infobox and to disagree with the stationreporter web site. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 01:27, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:HNLMS Jacob van Heemskerck (1939)

message: The ship was launched 16 September 1939, but the photo of the launch has description stating it is from 10 May 1940. The ceremony and the gathered crowd does not fit the circumstances of the first day of surprise invasion of their country...
It is accepted that the ship made a successful run for Britain early after the invasion started and that would not be possible with the state it was in when this photo was taken.
Also for example this source describes situation on the the fateful 10 May 1940 for the ship as already moored: "War with Germany breaks out early this morning. The Jacob van Heemskerck is still uncompleted moored at her dockyard, but fortunately has her propulsion system been installed and tested. During the day, as much equipment as possible is brought aboard, including 6 20 mm machineguns. On this day, the ship is prematurely commissioned by her executive officer, Lt Cdr A. van Foreest..." 2A02:8308:109:8000:C060:2325:63CA:E807 (talk) 20:51, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Framework Class Library

message: Base Class Library is much more commonly referred to than Framework Class Library, which is highly generic and should probably always be preceded by .NET. BCL has had an article for the last year, whereas FCL was just added and currently clones the other. It needs a lot of work to justify the dual articles -- if it can be justified. Template:DotNET should definitely link to BCL rather than FCL. --David Gannon (talk) 01:24, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, this is a copy. But it will not remain one for long. I just wanted to get some material here. I'm waiting for someone to respond to my questions before I continue. My idea is to have a FCL namespace-tree here. And then give each namespace its own article, possible containing a list of its classes and some reading material about it. --Stefán Örvarr Sigmundsson (talk) 01:42, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

text: And since the FCL is the superset of the BCL we should have FCL in the template. I intend to remove all the non-BCL namespaces from the article BCL, because the only reason they are there is that someone didn't feel like putting much effort into the job, so the BCL article ended up with false information. --Stefán Örvarr Sigmundsson (talk) 01:59, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  BCL vs. FCL 

message: It looks like Base Class Library has already been incorporated into the Standard Libraries (CLI) article, even despite some pushback.  (See above discussion.)  So here's what should be an even less contentious proposal: this short, stubby article doesn't need to exist—it should be merged with the Standard Libraries, too (and be made to redirect there).  AFAICS, the distinction between the "Framework Class Library" and the "Standard Libaries" is that the latter refers to the APIs defined in the relevant ECMA standards, and the former refers to the "classic" .NET Framework's implementation of those APIs.  The distinction is too subtle and the article too old and its content to short to make any credible argument that this page deserves to exist on its own.  So let's merge it. 2605:6000:1019:C064:5473:5A4:4724:3F07 (talk) 19:46, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: This is not a good idea. It would be better to merge Common Language Runtime (CLR) and Framework Class Library (FCL) into .NET Framework since they are both components of it and implement parts of Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) (which includes foundational class libraries aka Standard Libraries (CLI)). Your suggestion is similar to proposing to merge Common Language Runtime (CLR) into Virtual Execution System (VES) (which I would also be opposed to). Note: the foundational class libraries are now implemented as CoreFX in .NET Core. 2600:1700:EDB0:A060:F489:6C3D:58C2:C0AF (talk) 18:12, 24 June 2019 (UTC)

Am I confused?  How can f be a bijection from a hyperelliptic curve to the Riemann sphere except in the very special case where X *is* the Riemann sphere?  I think we should delete "bijective morphism" and say something like "branched covering".   John Baez (talk) 04:08, 12 December 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: It's not necessary to discuss a bold merge of an unnotable character. Its not a controversial procedure. Nothing wrong with character pages that prove their notability, but merging a character that fails the policy WP:N is not controversial. Objecting to the merge/redirect will most likely see that page at AfD, which is compeltely unnecessary. At least now it point's you to an appropriate page, and AfD might delete the article all together without a redirect. Dandy Sephy (talk) 04:17, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Nothing was merged in this case, so it is incorrect to say that a merge was done.  I do think the current paragraph in the characters page is sufficient, so changing this page to a redirect is fine in my opinion.  Despite this, I disagree with you that it is not a controversial procedure.  This page was created a year and a half ago, and has had several editors, so some people are clearly going to disagree with redirecting it without merging any of the content.  I think in such a situation it is appropriate to at least leave a comment stating why none of the content was merged.  While it may have also seemed obvious to TheFarix when he made the edit, again, I don't think it would be obvious to the various editors of this page why none of the content was merged.  Also, I want to mention that I undid the similar change to the Negi Springfield page, and I think that is a different situation.  As the main character in the series, I think he would have too little description if the page was redirected without a merge (he has almost nothing written about him in the character page right now). Calathan (talk) 05:04, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not going to dwell on it too much as we agree the action makes sense, but People simply disagreeing doesn't necessarily make it controversial (admittedly theres a difference between editors being inexperienced and performing inappropriate actions, this would be the former if there was a reaction). In this case, the action and justification isn't controversial (bold and to policy and established procedure ), but I can see why some may see it as such if they ahd worked on it. On the other hand, at some point most of the character pages will need merging for much the same reasons, in which case a discussion would most likely be advisable (but not necessarily essential!) due to the number of the changes. Although I'd say Negi Springfield is probably controversial, but thats a discussion for elsewhere (reliable 3rd party notability still needs to be proven, main character or not)  Dandy Sephy (talk) 16:11, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Sources make it clear that the name "Middag" was only used by the Dutch and, by extension, other Westeners. What confuses me is that "Middag" is the Dutch word for "afternoon" or, historically, "noon" (literally: "midday"). My first thought was that they had simply tried to "Dutchify" the native name, but then why would they use such a commonly used word? Surely calling something the "Midday Kingdom" or "Afternoon Kingdom" must have been for a reason? "Middag" barely even resembles "Dadu". ivdnt.org shows that the word "middag" had the exact same meaning and spelling back in the 1600s. Are there any sources that shed light on this?
