Talk:Iodine-123

message: why is it useful that iodine 132 gives out gamma radiation?
Assuming you mean I123, the gamma radiation is useful because it is penetrating. In the context of medical imaging, this means that the emissions can escape the body and therefore can be imaged. 8/6/17.
Actually, it is usually given as a capsule- I just had this and it was a huge to-do because of me not being able to swallow it so they melted it special for me and I drank it. It's the 131 that's usually drunk.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.20.23.77 (talk) 21:47, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I couldn't fix the reference at the moment. You are correct that I-123 is usually given as a capsule-- this minimizes the danger and mess of spills. I-131 is given as a drink because they don't want the concentrated local radiation from a capsule before it disolves. I-123 doesn't have any local radiation because its betas are too weak. The gamma radiation from I-123 is seen on the scanning camera, looking at the thryoid. I-123 is useful because it gives out only gammas and almost nothing else, so it doesn't cause local tissue damage and cancer, like low dose I-131 might (see that article).

Portal talk:Formula One/Next Grand Prix

message: / : it seems that while this page should be auto-updating every week, it didn't do it since at least the beginning of 2018 season. E.g. Portal:Formula One still shows 2018 Australian Grand Prix as being next event. Could you take a look and fix it? cherkash (talk) 03:05, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe the page is still updating properly (i.e. it is correctly reporting that the next race is "Round 1"), it's just that the "Round 1" subpage (Portal:Formula One/Next Grand Prix/Round 01) hasn't been updated yet at the end of the 2018 season. BTW,  hasn't edited since 2011 and  seems to edit rather infrequently these days (only 1 edit in the last month), so we should probably remove their names as people to contact.  has been updating the "Round XX" subpages at the end of the season for the past few years.

replies: text:  For week 48 (this week), it transcludes Portal:Formula One/Next Grand Prix/Round_01, which was recently updated from Australia 2018 to Australia 2019.  This portal will require manual maintenance, unless we transclude the year number and hope that the venues and sequence never change. Certes (talk) 00:06, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think the current mechanism is OK; it just requires updating once a year (which has just been done) and then it pretty much works fine for the next 12 months. There's just a little wrinkle this year in that the 2018 season finishes 1 week before the 2019 season; I think we can manage that on a case by case basis.

Talk:Demographics of Switzerland

message: On the column it says that the nationality is "Swiss" and then the breakdown on ethnicity.
Where do these percentages come from?
When I look at the figures from the Federal Statistical Office, the percentages are extremely suspect to me.
Is a naturalized Balkan resident of Zurich one of these 65% or does he belong to the other 6%? What about his child if the child's mother is also a naturalized citizen but originally from the UK?
Which official body in Switzerland keeps records of ethnicity?

thread_title: Cannibal Trains

message: Despite what the article says, this locomotive probably doesn't use AC motors per se, rather it must be the so-called "universal" motors, which are DC motor designs with modified connectors. These are fed with low-frequency AC current, that results in a significant but still tolerable amount of arcing and sparking. (Arcing becomes intolerable over 25Hz AC in large sized universal motors. The very meaning of the 50/3 = 16,66Hz traction system was to allow use of universally connected DC motors under the 15kV catenary.)
Nota bene: in railway traction the name of "AC electric motor" is usually reserved to honest AC motors of the Tesla / Dolivo / Kando heritage, built with squirrel-cage or slip-ring designs. 82.131.156.136 (talk) 22:23, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Hydraulic clearance

message: Hi,
I consulted the original source for this formula : Majumdar 2002 "Oil hydraulic systems : Principles and maintenance" New Delhi Tata Mc Graw Hill page 164  (ISBN 0074637487).
The formula given by Wikipedia differs from the source.
The formula in the source seems erroneous (coefficient 1,2 in the denominator !??), and besides, is hampered by the use of non-coherent units for the following parameters :
QL (leakage vol. flow rate)
delta P (pressure drop)
dynamic viscosity (mu).
The formula in Wikipedia does indeed seem to make sense, ON CONDITION that the following set of units (along SI conventions) be adopted :
Q vol. flow rate  :  m^3/sec
Delta P  :  N/m^2, Pa
Spool diameter d  :   metre
radial clearance c  :  metre
Clearance length L  :  metre
specific mass  rho  :  kg/m^3
kinematic viscosity nu : m^2/sec 
May I suggest you add this units information in your document, for clarity
Regards
