Talk:Union of UEA Students

message: the no platform campaign was an important issue as was really founded by the student body at UEA. If you think it needs editing please feel free to do so rather than just deleting it. 139.222.224.38 (talk) 18:56, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

message: Why does anybody consider this list even remotely encyclopedic? Maybe I'd grant that a list of artists at Woodstock is, but I don't see it in this case. —C.Fred (talk) 21:50, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: List of artists that have played

message: Granted, the list of bands that have played in the venue on campus doesn't belong here, and I agree, should go.  However, there is a lot of other content on this page apart from the list of bands which I think shoud remain.  There are whole sections on democratic process, and deleting the page on the basis of an item that, before the list was added, is simply one line, gets rid of a lot of the good stuff on this page.  
In terms of this organisiation, it has 14,000 members, plays a huge role in the life of the campus community (including lobbying and feeding into UEA's structures, which has an impact on the way in which the university runs) and also on local issues in the city of Norwich and also on the national stage (for example, lobbying the UK government not to introduce "top-up" fees, from which the combined pressure of the UK student unions nearly made Tony Blair's then-strong majority lose in 2003 (they only won by three votes)).  Student Unions across the UK have pages much like this.  
In short, deleting this page would be a short-sighted move.  Help improve it, rather than hit that delete button!  Reenie56 12:20, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've removed the speedy delete tag because I think that the article asserts that it is a notable organisation.

Talk:Zhuhai

message: Where this page describes Zhuhai as supplying 70% of the world's ribbons, it's unclear whether this refers to textiles (the way most English speakers would read it, but not suggested anywhere else as a significant industry) or ribbons used in printing devices (which the context suggests).

Cabin Questions:
1) When were the first set of cabins constructed?
*2017 
2) How many cabins are built?
*16 
3) How many cabins does the camp plan to build?
*26+ 
4) What is the staff/camper ratio generally in each unit?
*14 campers and 2 staff 
5) Do each of the cabins have toilets, sinks and changing areas?
*1/2 bath and 2 changing areas 
6) What are the general dimensions? 
*44' x 35'
7) What was the main motivation for moving to this next generation of lodging?

Talk:Curvature form

message: Isn't the curvature of a connection on P supposed to be a form on the base B?  In which case, how do we interpret the formula?  How does this relate to the discussion in Connection (vector bundle)?  gorlim (talk) 22:40, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

message: I'm opposed to merge Flat vector bundle into this article. Because Curvature form is distinguished with Flat vector bundle, which is called flat if the curvature form of its base manifold is vanishing.--Enyokoyama (talk) 13:45, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: That's certainly a valid point. The problem is redirecting flat connection to flat vector bundle: this is a redirect from a topic to its special case, not a good idea.

Talk:Curved space

message: I am confused.  The fact that: "an object constrained to lie on the surface of a sphere only has two dimensions that it can move in",  seems to be either a tautology (ie a straight line on the surface of a sphere describes an arc and an arc is a path described in two dimensions), or it considers the surface of the sphere as a local inertial frame.  However, neither seems to impact on the fact that a sphere not only looks three dimensional but is three dimensional.  
Movements of objects constrained to lie on the non-curved surfaces of any three dimensional object might be described in one or more dimensions while for a curved surface such a path cannot be described in less than two dimensions apart from with respect to it being a local inertial frame.   
It seems to me that a line drawn on the surface of a sphere will always curve relatively to both dimensions at a steady rate whereas for angular solids the path will only become two dimensional when it crosses an edge.  
Could this be clarified in the article in some way?
--LookingGlass (talk) 14:27, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It's true that any neighborhood on a curved surface is a three-dimensional object (as seen from outside), but an infinitesimal neighborhood is effectively flat, whence the "tautology". —Tamfang (talk) 22:36, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Two dimensional paths on two dimensional surfaces of three dimensional solids 

message: Of course, a sphere is a 3D object. It does not just LOOK like that, it is reality! Why do you, writer of this article, want to confuse people??? Stay with your surface, that's what you want to talk about, don't you? Yeah, it's 2D. By the way, in the next section you talk about spaces and I don't read anything about the relationship between a surface and a space. Be more clear, man! Not everyone has the same knowledge as you.

thread_title:  Surface of a sphere 

message: On the internet, perfectly misleading example showing Earth on the trampoline like fabric, has been depicted at many places to explain warp of spacetime. It is not correct example. For a sphere on trampoline like fabric it needs Earth's gravity to create that shape. Please refrain explanation using this example. Because it implies that cause of curvature in spacetime (gravity) is another gravity!

Talk:Cusp (singularity)

message: The term cusp in the title should be ordinary cusp. The ordinary cusp is given by the equation x2 + y3 = 0. There are many different kinds of cusp, e.g. a rhamphoid cusp (coming from the Greek meaning "Beak-like") given by the equation x2 + y5 = 0. Notice that the ordinary cusp and the rhamphoid cusp are not diffeomorphic to each other, and so from a singularity point of view are quiet different. I shall start making some changes now. ~~ Dr Dec (Talk)   ~~ 17:25, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  This Article Needs re-writing 

message: I'd like to ask several questions about this article:
1. The "Examples" section seems hard to follow for a mathematically savvy non-specialist. Surely there are a lot of examples of geometric objects with cusps, that could be mentioned and linked to. For example, how about cardioid? Or is the cusp of a cardioid only a cusp according to some broader definition of cusp than the one used here? If so, then the article ought to start with the broader definition first.
2. The lede doesn't actually define cusp -- it says: "In the mathematical theory of singularities a cusp is a type of singular point of a curve. Cusps are local singularities...."  "...[A] type of singular point..." doesn't narrow it down enough. Also, the lede should give an intuitive idea of what a cusp is, in addition to defining it completely.
3. Is it a necessary condition for a cusp that the one-sided derivative at the cusp be the same in both directions (on both branches)?
4. The lede says "The plane curve cusps are all diffeomorphic to one of the following forms: 
x2 − y2k+1 = 0, where k ≥ 1 is an integer."  Yet the image in the lede shows x3–y2=0 as an example. This seems to be inconsistent. Is it actually consistent, or is this evidence that the diffeomorphic comment in the lede is too narrow?  Duoduoduo (talk) 14:47, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Talk:J. B. Lenoir

message: Regarding Lenoir's death, I think the article has the facts crossed. The reports at the time suggested he died in a car accident, as do the lyrics of "The Death of J.B. Lenoir". According to Mayall, Lenoir's wife later told him that the reports were incorrect and Lenoir had actually died from a heart attack. This can all be cited in the documentary The Soul of a Man and Mayall's own liner notes to The Best of John Mayall And The Bluesbreakers (As It All Began). Regarding Lenoir's limited popularity, mistaken reports of his death don't seem unlikely. This should be remedied in the article. --Bentonia School 16:12, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Andes Yue

message: There is some guidance on use of Chinese characters in English Wikipedia in the Manual of Style.  This article has too many of them.  For instance, "Begin With Music" (一切從音樂開始) only needs to be written once in Chinese, and the interviewees who have their own English Wikipedia pages such as Dave Wong and Faye Wong should only be written in English.  
Some other points to improve: 
* state year of birth
* remove excess detail about interviews in Sept 2006 
Even when the article has been improved, it's not clear that the subject is notable enough to keep his own article in English wikipedia, especially as there isn't one on him in Chinese Wikipedia.  - Fayenatic london (talk) 22:44, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Scalp Level, Pennsylvania

message: I have wondered whether it would be appropriate to enter the story often told among members of my extended family about how Scalp Level got its name.   This is written up in detail in the "Eash Family Record and History," a copy of which is available at the Somerset Co (PA) Historical Society.  That volume quotes an article from the Johnstown Tribune, May 24, 1932.  This is reported along with a personal note from my great grandfather, Tobias Ashe, Entry number 743,in the Eash Family book referenced.   (Tobias Ashe was deceased long prior to my birth)  I believe the content of that volume is public domain. To make a very long story somewhat short, my great great grandpa, Jacob Ashe, Jr, was clearing land for a gristmill and gave the order to to his men, referring to the trees, "Scalp 'em level, boys."  That land has been known as Scalp Level ever since.  One of Tobias Ashe's sons was Bowman Foster  Ashe, founding president of the Universtiy of Miami.  The father of Jacob Ashe, Jr. was Jacob Eash, first Amish Bishop of Somerset County.  The Amish group he was associated with became Mennonite as a group after his death and was located in northern Somerset County and into Cambria.  It was not connected with the  current Amish group at Springs, PA near the Maryland line.   Frog one (talk) 18:49, 12 February 2013 (UTC)
