Talk:Green Great Wall

message: In English, the two common names (a bit confusing) is "Green Great Wall" or "Great Green Wall" (notice the order of the "Great" and "Green"). After doing a search, the name "Green Great Wall" is somewhat more formally and commonly used both in English news and English-language Chinese state news media. 
However, the official name of the "Green Great Wall" project in China is called Sanbei Forest Shelter Project. See here. Heilme 09:48, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: More correctly: Three-North Shelter Forest (not forest shelter). -- Миборовский 18:22, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Direct Chinese translation is Shelter Forest. But after taking into account English grammar, it sounds more correctly Forest Shelter. Xinhua uses Forest Shelter too, I don't know why. Heilme 09:31, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: And "Sanbei" is more like a name. Don't translate literally to "Three-North", sounds funny. It refers to north, northeast, and northwest China. This reforestation project covers 13 province-level regions. Heilme 09:36, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, a "forest shelter" would be something that shelters forests... a la "animal shelter". A "shelter forest" would be a forest that creates some kind of shelter, as is the case here. But if the official name is "Forest Shelter" than that should be used... -- Миборовский 02:26, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I don't think the project is to create windbreak. It's more like a massive reforestation project. And as said, it covers all 3 northern region of China ("Sanbei") which contains 13 province-level regions. Heilme 09:43, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Rupert Boneham

message: I would argue that the following statement has no empirical basis:
"Many of those same detractors believe that Survivor: America's Tribal Council was orchestrated" 
Who is "many"?  How did the author come to obtain this knowledge?  It seems like more of a statement of the author's opinion, speaking of "many detractors" to increase credibility.
*I think the entire article needs to be sourced, not just this one statement.  While you are correct to assume this statement needs facts to back it up, so do statements such as his "genuine" strategy and the fact that he was "well liked by fellow competitors."  Generally, the entire article needs to be cited. TommyP 06:12, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Vickers F.B.5

message: I have restored the edit, as I am ARL's grandson and heard this and other stories from the great man himself.
The pilot of the FB1 that crashed was killed and the design was deemed a failure, despite my grandfather traipsing across an Irish bog to get to the plane, where he dismantled the engine to discover the lack of oil. He was on his own and therefore not witnesssed. 
I suppose that the reference to the entry can be me: Mr Giles Duncan Edmondston-Low TD
I have the obituary that my father (Mr Richard Cecil Edmondston-Low CEng, AFRAeS, FBIS (1909-1982) wrote for The Aeronautical Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, April 1970.
If you would like it, you would be welcome to have it. Wikipedia won't publish an obituary, even if the RAeS released the copyright, but I leave the rest up to you.

:The above (with a little detective work) turns out to be about the Vickers F.B.5 article. It seems to me to be common sense (perhaps I am just old-fashioned in imagining there is such a thing), but DO "digitally sign" your posts with four tildes "~" signs so we know who we're talking to - and do give a clear indication of the article we're talking about. Obituaries (and other "anecdotal" sources) are NOT "encyclopedic" - this has nothing directly to do with copyright as such, it's just that they are notoriously subject to error: including errors of transmission, not to mention the tendency for human memory to muddle different real (and imaginary) events. Without going onto great detail, The event described seems on the face of it highly unlikely. Unlikely events do (rarely) happen, but they cry out for a "reliable source". Independent (and documented) confirmation in fact. --Soundofmusicals (talk) 20:24, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

I can convert if needed, but I have no real feel for how high 8,535 metres is - whereas 28,000 feet tells me precisely what could be expected. Could we please keep both on there?

text: i'd put Imperial first as it was built in feet and inches. GraemeLeggett 11:53, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd be inclined to agree with both of those, but went for minimal editing. Although altitude in metres was used commonly at one point... it was official policy in the Soviet Union. Feet make for more convenient numbers, though... funny how Imperial tends to work out that way. McNutcase 18:42, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The whole of the western aviation world works in altitudes in feet, and speeds in knots. It has done since the end of the Second World War. As McNutcase says, only the former Soviet Bloc used metric measurements and I believe they may have gone over to feet and knots since the end of the Cold War.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.40.251.42 (talk) 11:48, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Both the Guppy and Mini Guppy were built from Boeing 377's. There is no info available in the text of either article that allowss one to compare; there is nothing about the size of the cargo compartment or load capacity in the article on the regular Guppy, and there is no info box listing specifications like max takeoff weight, etc, in the MG article.

Anyone know anything about this album? Peter Jensen July 16, 2006.
The album "On Our Way Up" I have learned since my last comments as being an unauthorized release of early Doobie Brothers demos from 1970. As such I think it shouldn't be included and I am therefore removing it from the list. It's a bootleg in other words.--Peter Jensen 04:47, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Disambiguation of "Vogel"

message: This section could still use a few references. I added one from Stiff by Mary Roach. Could more specifics be added in this section as well? Such as how the London Burkers modeled their crimes after Burke and Hare? It might be beneficial for readers to learn that anatomists paid these body snatchers to gather more cadavers to dissect. 
It could also be useful to point out that having your body dissected in the 19th century was looked at as being a punishment worse than death, which is why criminal bodies were the only ones being dissected before body snatchers came around.
Herophilius might be discussed in this article since he was the first physician to dissect human bodies. Herophilius was known as the "Father of Anatomy". He was later accused of dissecting up to 600 live criminals.

Talk:C to Java byte-code compiler

message: I haven't seen this product myself, but I assume (I could be wrong) that it can't achieve 100% C compatability? I would think doing nasty things with pointers would be able to break such a system? Mrjeff 11:43, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Not necessarily; such a compiler would have to follow the C specifications, not emulate the behaviour of existing compilers like gcc. Many "nasty things with pointers" are specified as "undefined behaviour". You're right in that many existing applications may fail, but I'm not sure that it's impossible to emulate all of C's specification on the JVM. Wouter Lievens 09:57, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
