Talk:Sigfried Giedion

message: The text says: "Sigfried Giedion ... sometimes misspelled Siegfried Giedion". Yet I see the OUP, which published his books, called him Siegfried.  So does the Minnesota Uni. Press. The corresponding German entry simply says: "Sigfried Giedion (teils auch Siegfried geschrieben)". I do not know German, but that I guess that means "sometimes spelled Giedion"), which is different from "misspelled". Perhaps we could change it to reflect the German?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.27.181.141 (talk) 08:17, 7 April 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Robert Smirke (architect)

message: According to Wikipedia Millbank Prison was designed by William Williams in 1812 in accordance with the utilitarian principles laid down by Jeremy Bentham. The Williams design was subsequently adapted by Thomas Hardwick who began the construction in the same year. Hardwick resigned soon after and John Harvey took up the role. He was dismissed in 1815 and Robert Smirke took over and completed the project in 1821, at a cost of ₤500,000.
So Robert only managed the completion of the project and did not design it surely? BeckenhamBear (talk) 09:03, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

text: I don't have an issue with removing that item from the lead. I don't think it's necessary to put in each time a ship fires a weapon into the lead paragraph. USS Mason (DDG-87) is another example of another IP anon adding the same material to the lead. This seems to be an example of recentism bias. I don't think that each combat action is needed in the lead, ie missile firings. Every time a tomahawk was fired has not been typically included in the lead. I'd be fine with removing it from the lead in the Carney article as well. --Dual Freq (talk) 17:50, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Talk:USS Hué City

message: The naming of this Aegis-configured cruiser was for the 1st Marines operationally directed battle that opened within the city of Hué, Thua Thien Province, at the onset of the 1968 Tet Offensive in the Republic of Vietnam (RVN).  The official 1st Marines After Action Report delineates all the fighting units involved in the Battle of Hué for which the 1st Marines (infantry regiment, along with attached units) received the Presidential Unit Citation (Navy version) and indicates that the Battle of Hué ended circa 23 February 1968.  Although certain Army and Air Force individuals, many Army of RVN indviduals and certain ARVN units, as well as a few Army 'Dusters' (attached to 1st Marines), fought within the city, the Battle of Hué (for which the ship has been named) technically was the Marine battle fought from within outward.  The U.S. Army fought major battles outside and around the city from the south (101st Airborne - including Operation Mingo follwing official 'Battle of Hué) to the west & north (1st Cavalry [Airmobile], better known as 1st AirCav).  The ship is not named for these battles fought at the same time during the Tet Offensive.  Thus saying 'named for U.S. Marine and U.S. Army battle' is technically incorrect as applied to the naming of USS HUE CITY.  As 1st Battalion/1st Marines S-2 at onset of Battle of Hue, then Bravo 1/1 rifle company commander for most of the battle, the details of all this, as well as reviewing of and assisting in corrections to official 1st Marines After Action Report, are known to me in great depth and considerable scope.  Also please note that the caption under the Official Seal of the ship is incorrect:  it should read 'Official Seal'.  The 'Crest' is only that part above the Shield of the Coat of Arms within the anchor-chain  and belt around the Coat of Arms.  One can understand this better by going to the 'navysite.de' reference cited on the article page. RbtBlack (talk) 14:41, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Talk:USS Monterey (CG-61)

message: It is confusing that the U.S. Navy named a ship after a battle in Mexico with almost the same name as a city in California. And then they spelled it wrong to really screw up Wikipedia editors.
To be clear, the city in Mexico is spelled Monterrey, and it was the site of a battle of the Mexican-American War in 1846. The U.S. Army prevailed and writings of that battle tended to anglicize the spelling by removing the extra 'r'. Several other towns in the United States have been named in honor of this battle, and all dropped the extra 'r'.
The exception of naming the American towns after the battle in Mexico is the city of Monterey, California, named after the bay it lies along, which was named to honor the Count of Monterrey, the viceroy of New Spain at the time of its naming by Sebastián Vizcaíno in 1602. The Mexican city of Monterrey was named Ciudad Metropolitana de Nuestra Señora de Monterrey in 1596 in honor of the wife of the same Count of Monterrey.
In conclusion, even though the U.S. Navy ship is spelled with one 'r', it is for a battle in a Mexican town that uses two r's, but all the American generals who wrote of their victory dropped the extra 'r'. Clear? Highspeed (talk) 18:51, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

message: Hi, I changed the definition because in a true definition subject and object should be in its correct position. In
The subject is "power", but it is not correct, subject should be a prime number, I persist that this definition is more illustrative:
:In mathematics, a prime power is a prime number to the power of a positive integer.
Additionally, the word "single" in the first definition is redundant, we have "prime number" and "composite number", here "single" is redundant. Hooman Mallahzadeh (talk) 17:09, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  While I agree that the sentence is, at present, somewhat awkward, your revised version is much more awkward.  The theory you put forward here (ignoring the misuse of the word "subject") is definitely wrong: the word "power" can refer both to the exponent and to the result of exponentiation ("8 is a power of 2" is idiomatic mathematical English, at least where I'm from) so a prime power is a power, but a prime power is most certainly not a prime number.  If I get some time (& remember) I will think about how else that sentence could be made clearer. --JBL (talk) 22:07, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
