Talk:MV Caledonian Isles

message: Have recently spent a week on Arran, and could see the ferry all night through my hotel window. Thus it does not spend the night in Ardrossan harbour, but rather in Brodick. I'm not sure what the times of departure from each of the two ports is, but it is definitely not that shown on this page, at least at the moment. Shall try and find an up-to-date timetable!

Talk:MV Clansman

message: This is not the only MV Clansman to have been operated by Cal-Mac, the original vessel I remember operated on the Ardrossan-Arran route for many years before being replaced there by MV Isle of Arran.  The original Clansman was a converted vessel, a hoist loader I believe. This should perhaps be mentioned in the article, but I don't know if the original David MacBrayne company ever operated a vessel by that name. Douglasnicol 15:10, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

message: The change to "being repaired" is a bit of an exaggeration, she's been laid up at the James Watt Dock in Greenock for a few weeks (last checked on 13 July, when the Waverley spent a day there getting repairs and I went along to take photos) and I've been told that she's awaiting a replacement propellor from Germany.

message: I've added the fact the ship's being towed away, I'm not sure I've done it quite right (and the previous sentence may need tidying up but I can't find any facts other than that it's being towed). I've cited a source but the problem is it's the Tower Bridge schedule and after today it won't say anything about the ship. 87.80.97.137 (talk) 09:46, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nov 09 towing 

message: In British maritime acronym style I think the designation TS means 'Training Ship'. The Queen Mary is not a training ship.
She was often known as TSS but this means 'Twin Screw Steamship'.
The correct designation, in my opinion, should be TrSS as this means 'Triple Screw Steamship'.
I researched this and the Royal Institution of Naval Architects' acronmym list on their website agrees that TrSS is correct. RINA acronyms list92.22.75.98 (talk)
I found an old photo of the Queen Mary and the notes state 'TrSS' and I assume this is copied from the label on the photo Port Glasgow website of photos92.22.75.98 (talk)
:Thanks, but published sources use TS for turbine steamer – the Royal Institution of Naval Architects' acronmym list doesn't include TS in any meaning, but neither does it include PS, perhaps as turbine steamers and paddle steamers are no longer being built?  The Port Glasgow website appears too be selfpublished, so doesn't meet WP:SPS. For better sources, see Steamer TS Queen Mary returns to the Clyde - BBC News and Friends of TS Queen Mary - Bringing the only remaining Clydebuilt turbine steamer home to the Clyde. Equally good support would be needed to change the article. Interesting point, but article changes need reliable published sources which refer specifically to the topic of the article.

Talk:Greaseball the Diesel

message: I have hardly started on this article therefore it shouldn't be deleted! I haven't had time to add everything so please give me some more time!
-The Quidam
:Fair enough. The basic problem was that the initial versions of this article didn't mention Starlight Express at all - readers would not know that Greaseball is part of that musical. Partly because of that, the article looked more like an original story, which goes against Wikipedia policy. Please see WP:LEAD and WP:OR for further information and advice on these Wikipedia issues. We look forward to the additional content and cleanup on the article. Also note other Wikipedia guidelines such as WP:CITE and WP:MOS. Dl2000 05:13, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

message: "He is based on the British Rail Class 55 only he carries the Union Pacific livery. "
Erm...  how?   I'm sorry to keep challenging these assignments, but I can't see the logic behind claiming Greaseball is NOT based on one of the classic diesel Union Pacific engines!  These costume designs are in general not accurate enough to pin down to any one specific model of train.   If you disagree with me, please do justify your opinions, I am intrigued as to where you're getting the specific details to define the engines!

thread_title:  documentary 

message: In terms of trying to confirm/deny this story, this is the earliest newspaper report that I can find about a match between the two towns (Sept 1932)
However, there is nothing making a claim that it was the first interstate game. However, it seems that the match was in the planning at least from July 1922:
with various newspaper reports between them about the progress of the arrangements for the match, including this one which claims a first but the claim is "first time an interstate match has been played at a border town"
which isn't quite the same as saying first interstate match. Can anyone come up with any better claim than this? Kerry (talk) 12:48, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I have also found this 1905 article which talks of a Queensland vs New South Wales Rugby match (but fails to say if it was League or Union):

Talk:MV Captayannis

message: Displacement is given as 2620 tons.  This vessel is 396 feet (121 m) long and 56 feet (17 m) beam.  That's a pretty large ship and 2620 tons seems very low.  I checked the length on Google Maps and my measurement is very close.  It's not possible to check the other dimensions.  Displacement in tons is usually estimated by a formula: Displacement (Tons) = L x B x D x C / 35 where L = length in feet, B = beam, D = depth (i.e., the amount of water it needs to float when loaded), and C = the Block Constant.  The Block Constant C is essentially how much it looks like a box:  if it is in fact a box shape, C = 1.  It's not a box and C is usually in the 0.5 to 0.85 range.  Assuming it is 0.5, the most conservative, this calculation comes to 8000 tons, more or less.  This looks like a far more realistic number to me for a 120 metre ship.Cross Reference (talk) 01:13, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: As you say, it's was nonsense as written - it was in the article from early days, and I think 2,620 is probably the ship's NRT, for what that is worth.  For the moment, I have replaced that by the more commonly used, and sourced, , and will come back to the article in the next few days. Davidships (talk) 02:37, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Legal monopoly

message: A monopoly is legally defined as having a certain percentage of the market share (so its not necessarily that they are the ONLY seller - I think the article gets this right). A legal monopoly can be one that has been built and maintained by a private entity w/o any govt intervention or influence (not just one that is "exempted" by the govt). There are many examples of this. Monopolies are subject to stricter antitrust guidelines (e.g. can't sell below cost, price fix, etc...)
see:
http://www.ftc.gov/bc/compguide/maintain.htm
and if you can find the "legal def" (% of market share) also more pwr to you. 
Thanks.

Talk:Visual gag

message: Would "visual comedy" be a more appropriate title?  "Visual gag" implies that the article will only be about visual gags, not about visual comedy as a whole.  Visual comedy consists of visual gags, so it seems to me like it would be natural to rename the article so that it can cover a slightly wider subject. Esn 00:13, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, yes...and no.  You've got it in one--depends on what the article encompasses.  On the face of it, it would seem that there is much more material for "visual comedy" than "visual gag", so the question is, if this is moved to the wider "visual comedy", is there enough material for sight gag, or does a redirect suffice?  I would suggest that if there is to be a move, then the redirect should go to a specific section of the new article, which should be titled 'visual gag' or 'sight gag', otherwise you're going to mess up the internal links (annoys me when people don't at least 'try' to check 'what links here'...Quill 01:11, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

message: , I'm not sure it makes sense to call this an edit war, first of all. This is clearly a disagreement about what belongs in this article. The article is about a partisan organization, and therefore should include links and crosslinks to criticisms and praises from other people as per consensus in WP:RSes. Things like the link to the Freedom from Religion Foundation make sense, as AUSCS and FFRF often collaborate. Also, links to the Christian Right and Left articles make sense because this organization is widely seen as the Christian Left rebuking the Christian Right. it's staffed by prominent Christian religious individuals who protest the lack of separation of Church and State in the Religious Right.
