Talk:Roman Catholic Diocese of Ajaccio

message: I'd like to see more scholarship on this please. For example, the Phocians were gone lock stock and barrel long before Christianity. See Aleria on that one. These old encyclopedias are like old wine not quite properly aged; you can't really trust any given bottle; maybe you will get lucky, maybe not. On this one I would say, not.Dave (talk) 13:06, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Scholarship please

message: I removed the French Republic flag icon from the Infobox, in accordance with several sections of WP:ICON; specifically (quoting),
*"Generally, flag icons should not be used in infoboxes, even when there is a "country", "nationality" or equivalent field: they are unnecessarily distracting and give undue prominence to one field among many."
*"Flags make simple, blunt statements about nationality, while words can express the facts with more complexity." [Ajaccio  was not part of France for many centuries, the Republic of Genoa, the Republic of Pisa, and then it belonged to the Kings of France (whose flag was a large golden fleur-de-lys on a white background), and for a time to the Empire of Napoleon I, and the Empire of Napoleon III, not to the French Republic. The diocese was not an integral part of the political structure of the French state].
*"Do not rewrite history. Flags should not be used to misrepresent the nationality of a historical figure, event, object, etc. Political boundaries change, often over the span of a biographical article subject's lifetime [which includes details about individual bishops, some of whom were Italian]. Where ambiguity or confusion could result, it is better not to use a flag at all, and where one is genuinely needed, use the historically accurate flag."

Talk:Zellweger off-peak

message: I note that the bot has recently mentioned that this page is an orphan, that is, has no or few references to itself from other pages.  Not sure whether that matters, but in fact Zellweger is just one, rather old, example of a general technique of switching electrical devices on or off by sending signals over the electrical power mains.  I suggest that a new page might be put up about this general topic, and this current page should be one of several it references.  THen, my graph work should move to the new page, since the off-peak switch in question is not a Zellweger.
I have added the graph report I did on my Sydney home's electricity supply, and corrected the reference to the Zellweger containing radioactive material.  I have removed the citation needed comment, as I believe this corrected reference and the new references will serve as that.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by NickSharp (talk • contribs) 23:01, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

message: Ok - Are other certain Draft & Draught are the exact same concept, just country of use. US Navy ship will have 2 sets of Draft markings- One set match the concept presented = measured from the Keel (bottom of the hull) to the waterline. This draft is used for entry into tables to determine vessel's current Displacement. The second marking is Navigational drafts- measures down to the lowest/deepest portion of the ship in the water. IN some cases it is to the bottom of the Sonar dome - if present - is usually below the Keel. Different ships have different designs- Some ships have the propellor shaft at an angle - instead of parallel to the keel, and the vessels project the propeller and possible also the rudder below the keel    74.214.55.19 (talk) 00:51, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
