message: I believe that the reference to Utica College was a lame attempt at humour. Utica College is, in fact, an offshoot of Syracuse University and is a fine educational institution. 168.170.186.130 16:22, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Z-80 SoftCard

message: This seems to be written from a VERY odd point of view. It's not an NPOV problem, just person.
The claim above is a very interesting observation and one suspects might indeed win an award, if such were ever to be offered, for what might be the most (gloriously?) esoteric criticism ever made of any wikipedia article. (Ericross)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ericross (talk • contribs) 11:42, August 27, 2007 (UTC) 
I noticed a couple problems with this article that should be corrected:
1) "The SoftCard Legacy" section is pure opinion. It should be deleted.
If not, the following information needs to be corrected:
2) The failed successor to the Apple II was the Apple III (introduced by 1980). The Mac may be considered a successor to the Lisa. The II family went on to the //e, //c and IIgs sub-families, all of them largely regarded as home machines in a time business computing was synonymous to PC-compatibility.
3) the business legitimacy of the Apple II was not usually questioned. It was the first platform where Visicalc ran, effectively legitimizing personal computers as business tools.

Talk:Polyanhydride

message: Polyanhydrides is a new article to Wikipedia.  Please let me know if there are any improvements or additions that would make this article better. 
Thanks! (Mmbyron 16:55, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi Mmbyron, because you asked for improvements I just want to let you know that in my opinion the introductional part conatins a little mistake: "polyanhydrides degrade into non-toxic diacid monomers that can be metabolized and eliminated from the body". I think I do understand what is meant which is probably that Polyanhydrides have the potential to be used in vivo because after biotic degradation the monomer is left and in general they are non-toxic. But in fact there are toxic dicarbonic acids like acetylenedicarboxylic acid (which is probably not the best example). But hopefully you can follow my argumentation in spite of my bad english. Sorry for that. Thornfalko (talk) 15:01, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Frying Pan (guitar)

message: The article states that the instrument, "used a magnetic induction coil similar to that found in a telephone receiver".
First of all, an "induction coil", in the context of early telephony, is what we now commonly call a transformer. (I believe the term "induction coil" is still is use among telephone technicians.)
Second, a telephone's "receiver" (speaker) responds to the varying voltage (and consequently, current) in its coil by moving the receiver's diaphragm. This motion produces sound waves. The telephone's receiver therefore "transduces" electrical energy into mechanical energy - the movement of the diaphragm and the consequent production of sound waves.
In a significantly different manner, the magnetic pickup of an electric guitar produces an alternating current in its windings in response to the variations in magnetic flux caused by the vibration of the steel strings in the magnetic field. The pickup transduces the mechanical energy of the strings into electrical energy, and there is no significant acoustical component.

message: I've been watching this article for a while and now that I'm finalizing the full Mother 3 article, I'm BOLDly redirecting this article in. The characters have not received extended discussion in secondary sources (apart from maybe Lucas, with whom I have no beef, though I haven't quite looked into that article yet) and this current list is sourced almost entirely from primary sources or other sources heretofore declared unreliable (looking at Starmen.net though perhaps that opinion has evolved). In any event, this article collects trivia and minutiae about these characters that isn't encyclopedic in nature and would be best covered by a Wikia.

Template talk:Planned Chicago skyscrapers

message: The Template:Chicago Skyscrapers was getting filled with cancelled, proposed, approved, and under construction buildings.  The template states things like "Downtown Towers with 20 or more Floors."  If a building doesn't exist yet, it doesn't have any floors.

Talk:Aglaurus

message: This article gives two versions of the story of Herse and Aglaulus throwing themselves off a cliff; that's fine--mythology comes in lots of versions.  But then it says Aglaulus was turned to stone, and then it says she sacrificed herself, and then it says she had a kid by Hermes (who in one version turned her to stone not long after meeting her).  I'm guessing that these are all just different versions of the story of Aglaulus, but the phrasing that indicates that they're different versions breaks down/disappears halfway through the article.  And I don't know enough about the various versions to be sure which details belong to which version.  So the article needs some cleanup--probably just a matter of throwing in "according to yet another version of the story" two or three more times, but I'm not sure.  --Elysdir 17:27, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
