Talk:Ōmuta, Fukuoka

message: What's going on here?
*This page was written in 2003, presumably  at Omuta Fukuoka. 
*It was moved in July 2010 to plain Omuta with the edit summary “disambiguation unnecessary”   
*It was moved back to Omuta F in October over redirect “per WP:MOSJ#Place_names"  
*It was moved back to Omuta on 31 July 2011 because “disambiguate unnecessary” 
*and moved back six hours later as apparently disambiguation is, in fact, “necessary” after all.  
None of these moves have been discussed, and the reasoning has been sketchy at best.
Can someone please decide whether disambiguation is, or is not, needed here, and say why that should be the case? At least then there’ll be a consensus of sorts to turn to the next time someone wants to play silly buggers. Moonraker12 (talk) 11:47, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Holophonics

message: Holophony (acoustic holography) was invented (and the term coined) by Maurice Jessel of CNRS in Marseille in the 1970's. Jessel did a PhD under the supervision of Louis de Broglie (the Physicist) in Paris in the 1960's. de Broglie wanted Jessel to generalise the work of David Bohm in Quantum Mechanics and de Broglie's own Pilot Wave Theory. This Jessel did, but chose to make his career in acoustics and is considered to be the father of Active Acoustic Absorption and Wave Field Synthesis. These subjects are covered very poorly in Wiki. I knew Jessel, and visited him in Marseille, and have worked in the area (on the Theoretical Physics side) myself. I will undertake to try to improve these Wiki entries but it will take me some time. Keithbowden (talk) 07:23, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

message: I removed a discussion from the main article, one anonymous writer called Zuccarelli's theory entirely incorrect, another one wrote as a comment to these two words:
Note: While the the theory and its objections seem fairly explained the "(entirely incorrect)" statement seems subjective.

Talk:Ōkuma, Fukushima

message: This article would benefit from a map showing the location of this town in relation to major cities in Japan. --Spangineerws (háblame) 04:44, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Better map? 

message: Okuma has become important because the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant is located there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima_I_Nuclear_Power_Plant  There are a couple of issues re the town's location.  First, the wording is currently "a town near Futaba District".  The word near looks wrong to me.  If you compare the map with the map of Futaba District http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Futaba_District_in_Fukushima_Prefecture.svg it looks like Okuma is within Futaba District.  Second, there is an Okuma Station http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%8Ckuma_Station on the railroad, but the location of Okuma Station given (on the related page for the Joban railroad line) appears to be roughly 80 km north of the location in this article.  For all I know, there are 2 locations named Okuma in that general part of Japan.  Would someone who really knows, please sort this out?  Oaklandguy (talk) 02:39, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I realize that you posted this over a year ago, but the town of Ōkuma (大熊町) and Ōkuma Station (逢隈駅) are in different prefectures and are unrelated except for their pronunciation.

Talk:North American Neuromodulation Society

message: The notability of this organization is currently unclear, since no secondary sources are cited. By the notability criteria for organizations, independent reliable sources are required to make sure that the subject is notable. These sources might be press coverage about the society, or books in which the society is mentioned. 
It is well possible that these sources exist; however they need to be cited explicitely in the article, in order to establish notability of the subject.
Please add these sources. For the time being, I am resetting the date counter of the “notability” warning tag (old date was October 06). I am also adding a tag requesting secondary sources.

Talk:Liberty (1881–1908 periodical)

message: @A. Randomdude0000 I notice you changed the name of the article from Liberty (1881–1908) to Liberty (19th century periodical).

Talk:MP-443 Grach

message: The article claims the pistol has a double action, and mentions a partially-concealed hammer.
Since it's not described as a "Double Action Only," I usually expect to see something about a decocking mechanism. I do not see that here. Further, the photo showing the pistol broken down into its major components doesn't appear to show a hammer on the frame. I would expect to see one sticking up above the level of the frame's rails.
If this is a striker-fired pistol, which would explain the lack of any apparent hammer, it is misleading to describe it in any of the usual "something-action" terms, as these most usually describe firing mechanisms incorporating a hammer. While I do sometimes see them (weirdly) applied to striker-fired designs, I would hold the position that it is done in error.
I don't know this pistol, but I post this in hopes that someone who does might see how to improve upon the description of it.

Talk:Judiciary Act of 1793

message: I'm the person who just tried to de-stubify the article.
The article as I found it was entirely about the 1789 (emphasis, NOT 1793) Judiciary Act.  I kept what I needed and jettisoned the rest.  The only research I did was to read th actual text of the 1793 Act, as referenced in the article.  Therefore, my summary amounts to original research.
I suggest that whoever goes and tries to fix this deplorable situation actually refer to a history of the US judiciary, or something of the sort, rather than just undo all my changes and leave the article in the nearly useless condition I found it in.
Depending on how things go in the next 24 hours, I may do this myself.

Talk:Volkswagen Type 4

message: I wasn't sure I wanted to get into editing this page, but I believe there may be an inaccuracy as to the German nickname of the Type IV Volkswagen.
When I Google 'VW Langnase' I find German Language references to the VW Super Beetle - this is logical as that vehicle is a longer-nosed version of the standard VW Beetle.  On the other hand, a common German language nickname for the Type IV is "Nasenbär" (in English, 'Nose Bear') referring to the South American mammal known as the Coati in English.  The only references connecting the term 'Langnase' to the Type IV are the Wikipedia ones or others that appear to have derived their information from Wikipedia.
A look at the German language Wikipedia page http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/VW_Typ_4  (...Die dadurch entstandene große „Schnauze“ des Wagens inspirierte die Bevölkerung, dem VW Typ 4 den Spitznamen „Nasenbär“ zu geben...(at 10 nov 2007)) seems to confirm the Nasenbär nickname.

replies: text: Being in an adventurous mood right now, I did it. Mostly because I distinctly remember the Nasenbär name, as opposed to Langnase.
