Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Knightsbridge University

message: I respectfully ask you to delete the comment referring to Kennedy-Western University being a diploma mill. Kennedy-Western has filed suite with the State of Oregon and according to this suite it may not be referred to as such. The United States government now recognizes KWU as an "Unaccredited University". You say that a VfD page should not be reedited but I strongly disagree when such a page is being used as an example and can be viewed by the general public. Since this is an incorrect I ask you to revise these comments. Piercetp

message: In the American edition of Hickory Dickory Death published by Dodd, Mead and Company, the inspector is named Sharpe, not Japp.  Are there two separate inspectors, or is this the case with all of the American publications?  Sharpe is first referenced on page 61, the second page of Chapter 7.  ("Upstairs, Mrs. Hubbard was facing Inspector Sharpe * * * ") This seems to call into question whether the anime in fact did change the name, or simply adopted a change already made by another source.

message: Some characters such as Yuki Minaguchi and Shizuna Kusaka (née Kasahara), as well as the elder brother of Konishi, appeared in this earlier series, about a masked high-school student with superhuman strength. Japanese Wikipedia makes reference to this; it's only a minor point, but perhaps worth mentioning in this article? The title character, Tani, also appears in Air Master vol. 1 in an extra story. Tanikamen was reissued (in kanzenban format) due to the popularity of Air Master in 2003.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.144.66.25 (talk) 21:37, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, just to clarify my previous comment: in volume 1 of Air Master, an extra story shows Aikawa interact with a pregnant woman and her husband. These are Tani and Shima from Tanikamen, where they were highschoolers. In the 2003 reissue of Tanikamen is an extra chapter where a nine-year-old Aikawa encounters (and sort-of fights, showing off her acrobatic skills; it even says on-panel "Maki Aikawa, later known as the Air Master") a high-school-aged Tani. Not a big deal, maybe, but perhaps an interesting thing to note? 78.144.66.25 (talk) 21:43, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Aishiteruze Baby

message: I removed "(corm)" from the end of Yuzuyu's character description.  According to this Wikichan article, "corm" was a fan translator's mistake (and a funny one at that).  As this seems to only be a mistake of a fan translator, and not official dialog, I did remove it.  It's a fairly popular Internet meme, so it will probably show up again.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Partymetroid (talk • contribs) 01:54, August 25, 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: No, it just happens that Audi uses Haldex in the transverse engine cars and Torsen in the longitudinal ones.  I don't know if it was due to cost or packaging constraints of the Torsen, or possibly the Torsen platforms were designed by Audi & the Haldex platforms by its VW parent.204.95.48.184 (talk) 22:56, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Missing Models 

message: There is something confusing (contradictory) about the description of the Torsen when the inner wheel leaves the ground:
"... the slower-moving wheel always receives more torque than the faster-moving wheel. [...] If one wheel were raised in the air, the regular Torsen units would act like an open differential," 
If that is true then when the airborne wheel starts spinning faster than the wheel on the ground according to the first statement more torque will go to the wheel on the ground.  This is the opposite conclusion to that in the text:
"... and no torque would be transferred to the other wheel" (the "other wheel" being the wheel on the ground).
Explain the statement that "the slower moving wheel *always* receives more torque" and why this can be true even when the Torsen acts as an open differential.  Maybe the problem is the use of the word "always" instead of a description of the conditions under which the slower moving wheel gets more torque.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.146.21.163 (talk) 05:24, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

"Four poetic riddles describing real and fictional women are given, and three of them are solved, two by Archie, and one by Wolfe. The fourth is never solved within the text."
I recently read the novel, and I spotted five verses, all of which are solved. Archie gives the solution to the first two magazine riddles, Wolfe answers the third given (the eighth within the contest), Archie gives the fourth (the ninth) and one of the contestants gives the solution in a later chapter, and we only hear of one of the tiebreaker riddles and Archie does give the identity of that solution as well.

Talk:Keiichi Morisato

message: I believe the note about "strong one" is wrong because:
1) According to my dictionary, the character "kei" in Keiichi's name means "firefly". There are characters read "kei" which mean strong but they're written differently.
2) I'm not sure but in most languages one means just "number one". Using one as an unspecified noun (as in "strong one") is probably not common outside of English.
--84.245.67.190 09:58, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Strictly speaking, it does not make sense in English either. If you wrote `strong 1' it has a different meaning to `strong one'.  The number one and the indirect pronoun have different meanings, different etymology: they are only homonynms (like witch and which). There is no language, let alone Japanese, where that would actually make sense, therefore it is clearly wrong. Elric of Grans 21:58, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Unorginized comments

message: I surely could not imagine a most idiotic, hopeless, stupid, pathetic anime character not even in my wildest dreams +_+
:It's so obvious that Keiichi Morisato is homosexual.  He's a very deeply closeted gay.  He's from a very strict, old-fashioned traditional background. He attends a very tough, conservative high tech school.  He's so repressed that Keiichi himself is probably unaware of his true feelings.  His "wish" for a "goddess like Belldandy" to stay by his side is more of a wish like E.M. Forster's Maurice Hall's wish that he could just turn "straight" all of a sudden like his lover Clive Durham did.  Keiichi's discomfort around women is far beyond shyness.  He's supposed to be romantically in love with Belldandy but starts dry-heaving and shuffling away whenever she touches him.  He's far more comfortable around his burly ex-roommates from school.  He really needs to just come out of the closet, he'll be much happier even if he does lose the respect of his traditional background and conservative university.
