Talk:Free body diagram

message: I found this page rather muddled.  
The basic points about the free body diagram are missing:  
* free body diagrams are useful for statics and dynamics, depending on whether or not the system is in equilibrium, 
* a free body must never include its supports (otherwise it would not need a reaction force to maintain equilibrium), 
* the force vectors on the diagram must show magnitude, direction and point of application.  
Rather than getting bogged down with weight and inclined planes, it would be more useful to give clear instructions for static analysis (resolving forces and taking moments).  
That could lead to non-rotational dynamics, showing statics is a special case where acceleration is zero), and possibly also going on to rotational dynamics, introducing moment of inertia.

replies: text: I am in absolute agreement with you. A free body diagram does not contain any objects other than the one which is being acted on by certain forces. The given examples are not, in my opinion, even free body diagrams.

thread_title:  Non-RS 

message: I notice that much of this "health" section focuses on Aretha Franklin's weight. It is very rare for male celebrities to have "health" sections, especially those that focus on weight, regardless of body size. I think this section should be reconsidered for Ms. Franklin and in general across gender representation. For example, see Luciano Pavarotti's Wikipedia page for this discrepancy. It is well documented that women face far greater scrutiny for body shape and size than men in comparable roles in society, and that they face discrimination for not fitting a preconceived "feminine" appearance. Heinzam (talk) 07:22, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree.  I think generally health sections don't belong, as kind of a tabloidization, and here her health as happens with many older people became an issue toward her death, so no life long issue.

Thanks for moving this article from underneath me - I thought the article name was already long enough as List of regicides, etc., but now it is even longer. 
You'll note that the article contains, or was intended to contain, a section with details of associates who were prosecuted as Regicides even though they were not signatories. As such, the new name is inappropriate. Please revisit the article and remove this section. 
Also, this article is filed in categ Regicide under Charles I.

But a common feature of the definitions I have seen on the internet of an LDR i have read, that it's based on where each partner "lives" and thus would exclude say someone who is separated from their partner/spouse for weeks or a months for business/work but who otherwise normally lives with them. Also, the term LDR is mostly applied to unmarried couples' relationships.

message: The distinction made in the introduction, in my opinion, is wrong. A revolutionary is a person who is engaged in a political or social revolution, that is the transformation of society by the masses (the people) examples of revolutions are: The French Revolution and the Russian Revolution. A rebel is a person who is engaged in a rebellion that does not entail the changing of society by the masses, but by a part of the masses (e.g. an oppressed minority).
To say that a revolutionary is a successful rebel is total nonsense, in my opinion. I think the introduction to this category should be changed.
