Talk:Diving activities

message: I think this article should be merged with Scuba. DJ Clayworth 21:25, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)

message: The article is suitably referenced, with inline citations. 
:It has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged is cited. Any format of inline citation is acceptable: the use of <ref> tags and citation templates such as  is optional. There is uncited material, but it will probably be simply a matter of tracking down which sources apply, as there does not seem to be any controversial material.
The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies. 
:It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for , although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing. There is room for improvement, but no obvious major omissions. Should be adequate for B-class.
The article has a defined structure. 
:Content should be organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind. Complies.
The article is reasonably well-written. 
:The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but it does not need to be "brilliant". The Manual of Style does not need to be followed rigorously.Looks OK to me.
The article contains supporting materials where appropriate. 
:Illustrations are encouraged, though not required. Diagrams, an infobox etc. should be included where they are relevant and useful to the content. Adequate.

Talk:Out (baseball)

message: I'm pretty sure that when a proper batter is called out on appeal due to an improper batter hitting in his place in the order, the putout goes to the catcher.  This isn't mentioned in the article that deals with abtting out of order.  This should be mentioned in the section that explains how a putout is sometimes assigned to the nearest fielder.  There may be other technical putouts that credit the catcher. WHPratt (talk) 18:08, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

In the comic, 'our' Ben Urich is up late at night, pondering the whole Daredevil/Nuke sitution. At an apparent telepathic nudge from the Watcher, he goes on a whole 'fantasy' based on the title question. In the end we see him dismiss it all as just a story.

:::*A photograph showing the tight knot of tourists standing in front on the painting trying to squint through the glass - also showing painting in gallery context done by User:Montrealais
:::*An oblique photograph of the frame illustrating the tripple layered bullet-proof glass
:::*A close up showing surface crakling of the paint
:::*A detail showing the painting techniques, such as sfumato
:::*A photograph of the back showing the condition of the wood and any other identifying marks
:::*A shot of one of the towns where the painting was stored during WW I and WW II
:::*Marcel Duchamp's corrupted version, L. H. O. O. Q.
:::*A historical photograph showing the acid damage in 1956, or its restoration
:::*A historical photograph showing the painting on tour or being transported
:::*A historical photograph of Vincenzo Peruggia, who once stole the painting (at Vincenzo Peruggia)
:::*One of the X-rays of the painting showing the underpainting (another X-ray was being taken this year).
:::*The merchandising shot could be replaced with a photo showing a wider range of merchandise
:::Of course the real problem, as User:Benc says, is that many of these picture would be very difficult to obtain under GFDL.

Talk:Vicarius Filii Dei

message: Historically, the letter W began as a double u, at a time when u and v were not differentiated. This digraph was used in the earliest Old English texts, but was replaced by the runic letter wynn (ƿ, like a p with a large loop), which remained in use over most of the Old English period. The digraph uu for the w sound appears in Old High German manuscripts, and it appears in this form in modern printed editions. Several instances appear in the following manuscript: http://c8.alamy.com/comp/EABEG6/historic-manuscript-the-wessobrunn-prayer-or-the-wessobrunn-creation-EABEG6.jpg 
The treatment of W as a numerical letter, equivalent to V+V = 10, is centuries old. This is shown in an old diversion called the chronogram, in which a sentence was constructed, the numerical letters of which add up to the current year. In Europe (and Britain) this was commonly done in Latin, but one ingenious one for 1642 appears in both Latin and English, where it is obvious that W was regarded as a double V: "'TV DeVs IaM propItIVs sIs regI regnoqVe hVIC VnIVerso." – "O goD noVV sheVV faVoVr to the kIng anD thIs VVhoLe LanD." This example appears in some (not all) editions of Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable.
