Talk:Multiverse (DC Comics)

message: I assume the images you use to illustrate comic-book articles are of such poor quality because you're the only site on the entire internet that still worries about DC taking legal action if you use an image of Superman to illustrate a webpage about Superman, but is there really any point at all in illustrating an article about a fictional Multiverse with an extremely detailed map of the whole convoluted kaboodle reduced to such tiny dimensions that no details whatsoever are visible? You might as well have a photo of a kitten for all the use it would be. In fact, that would be an improvement, because at least your readers would be able to see what it was.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.143.52.132 (talk) 21:09, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ridiculously Small Map 

message: The "Divine Continuum" concept introduced in Flashpoint Beyond posits a parallel Space/Time structure to DC's multiple realities, with the Omniverse existing on the Space side and representing various conceptual frameworks for different worlds, but with Hypertime existing on the Time side and representing dynamic growth of realities as people make consequential decisions and the timeline splits as a result. It also groups previous Crises accordingly, with the Crisis on Infinite Earths, Infinite Crisis, Final Crisis, Multiversity, Dark Nights, and Dark Crisis being “Space Crises” dealing with the nature of the Multiverse; but with Zero Hour, The Kingdom, Flashpoint, Convergence, Doomsday Clock, and Flashpoint Beyond being “Time Crises” that alter the timeline. 
Should the in-universe history of the Multiverse be restructured with this in mind, with two narratives presented corresponding to the Space and Time Crises? 2603:6010:900:2556:C469:409A:2DB7:F1C7 (talk) 09:47, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

thread_title: Electrifying

message: Though i'm no engineer i was a bit surprised about the size requirements of a SMES facility with a potential storage capacity of 1GWH:
"To achieve commercially useful levels of storage, around 1 GW·h (3.6 TJ), a SMES installation would need a loop of around 100 miles (160 km)"
On the other hand, one can read the following passage in the listed sources [9]:
"Theoretically, a coil of around 150-500 m radius would be able to support a load of 5000 MWh, at 1000 MW; depending on the peak field and ratio of the coil's height and diameter."
Given that my math is still correct and 5000 MWh equal 5 GWh, were does that difference come from? Miles vs meters? Thanks for helping me out --Ikajo 14:43, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Double hyphen

message: I have never seen a double hyphen (or graphical equivalent) used to separate the two parts of a name. Japanese usage appears to be a middle dot to separate components of a katakana word, or else a space or no marker at all. The latter two options are frequently seen in peoples' names in kanji. Rhialto
Actually, double hypen appears rather frequently. However, I'm not exactly sure about the rules governing its usage; I know that they are used in cases like between 'bin Lādin' or for the '-' in cases like al-Tikriti, but I haven't seen them used between, say, George Bush. I don't know if it's a replacement for '-' or merely an alternative to ・

message: Your article on kingfisher mentions that a kingfisher's eye lens has evolved into an egg-shape.  Here is the excerpt:
"They are able to see well both in air and under water. To do this, their eyes have evolved an egg-shaped lens able to focus in the two different environments."
This seems to counter Wikipedia's NPOV least in regards to evolution vs. creation.      I think the above statement would need to be verified in order to stay in Wikipedia.  Or, perhaps take the evolution assumption out entirely and edit the statement to read:
"They are able to see well both in air and under water. To do this, their eyes have an egg-shaped lens able to focus in the two different environments.
This would express a more neutral point of view.  Is there any agreement?

Talk:Manhigut Yehudit

message: Manhigut Yehudit (Jewish Leadership) in Hebrew is a movement begun by Moshe Feiglin to make Israel a more Jewish state. It is presently a faction of the leading Likud party.
:Manhigut Yehudit failed to receive any Knesset representation (according to polls they would have gotten around the 38th seat)due to the law stating that no person convicted of a crime containing moral turpitude within the last 7 years may be elected to the Knesset. Moshe Feiglin was convicted of blocking roads in protest at the Oslo agreements in the early 1990's while a co-leader of the Zo Artzeinu movement which was formed to fight against Israeli land handovers. There was considerable controversy regarding whether blocking roads in political protest contained moral turpitude.

message: I believe there may be a mistake in the reason for the switch from silver to cheaper alloy, or if not an actual mistake, the reason may be overstated.
Lend-Lease was predominantly free aid and I have found no references to the loan of silver under this program.
I believe the most significant reason was the repayment of other loans from the US during WW2 (not part of Lend-Lease) and immediately post WW2 e.g. Anglo-American loan.
Furthermore, the UK was still repaying loans for the costs of WW1 from the US into the 1930s. Due to the 1930s depression, there was a moratorium on these repayments, but post WW2, the repayments were due again.
In fact WW1 debts to the US were not finally paid off until 2015. For more information, see History of the British national debt.

replies: text: You are confusing two issues again. £0.0125 is just a number, but it is one that is meaningful to a modern and international readership that has no familiarity with £sd counting. That this happens also to be similar to the post-1971 format of presenting sterling is essentially coincidental. It is not "historically dubious", any more than it is to give the modern SI equivalents of apothecary's weights and measures. The real issue is that the purchasing power of a golden guinea was vastly more than that of £1.05 today. The only way I can see to resolve that issue is to add a footnote that uses  to provide that purchasing power information.
