Talk:Peculiar velocity

message: I'm wondering why we need the 'In the real Universe...' qualifier -- as opposed to what? Wouldn't saying just 'Galaxies are not distributed evenly throughout observable space, but typically found in groups or clusters' do just as well? Also, am I alone in finding a few odd turns of phrase in this article? Greginnj 23:03, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: In the real Universe

message: These terms seem to be used interchangeably here. IMHO they are different. Velocity is how fast something is going, but motion incorporates many other things including vector and I suppose rotation as well. Kortoso  (talk) 22:53, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Velocity versus motion 

message: In the Cosmology section, it would probably help to find an article or source describing the grouping of galaxies.  Right now, the sources listed at the bottom of the page are essentially definitions.  Articles describing the use/purpose of a peculiar velocity will help strengthen this page.  It may also be a good idea to put in some mathematical formulas that may apply/help describe what exactly peculiar velocity is in a more quantitative form rather than qualitative. Mgoumas (talk) 01:36, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Notes on Sources

message: I think it would be useful to mention some ways in which peculiar velocities are important in some cosmological computation. Perhaps how to compare peculiar radial velocities and recessional velocities. Kg5601 (talk) 16:55, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Sipapu

message: Both my wife and I recollect that during one of our tours (probably the (Mesa Verde Long House tour since this was ranger-guided) that someone said (or else we read: could have been the Mesa Verde Step House or the Aztec ruins or Chaco Canyon's Pueblo Bonito) that sometimes the sipapu appeared in a wall rather than in the floor. Does anyone have a source for that? Meanwhile I'll hunt for a source . . . wvbaileyWvbailey 16:16, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sipapu also appeared in the walls (?) 

message: If the fire was on the level of the main floor, it would be helpful to include some language to distinguish the sipapu from a fire pit.  Ahazred8 21:48, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The fire pit would be a sizable depression in the floor, or perhaps in a raised area above the floor bounded by stones, or perhaps in a depression that also had side walls. But the sipapu was (usually) its own little hole (a few inches in diameter) in the floor and not apparently used for fire. Or a depression in a side-wall of a quasi-below-ground structure. That is my understanding of it. wvbaileyWvbailey 22:25, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

A New York Times Article from 2017 (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/23/us/havasupai-native-american-tribe-school-lawsuit-arizona.html) cited a Havasupai lawsuit in which it was stated that there were about 730 enrolled members of the tribe.

* - "Until about 1850, legends about Nanabozho — also spelled Nanabosho or Nanabush — depicted him as a giant godlike figure. He controlled the seasons, formed the world's natural features and taught the Ojibwa how to hunt, cultivate food, tap maple trees and use healing herbs. 
Sometime in the 20th century Nanabozho's persona changed and he became a trickster figure who often took the form of a hare."

Talk:15th Army Group

message: Sorry, but there is no such thing as a British/American Army Group, or a US Army Group for that matter. The Army Groups established by the Allied Expeditionary Force were entirely international in allegience, and were assigned their commanders to achieve political gain. Army Groups consisted only of a Headquarters and Headquarters Company, and nothing more. Their only reason for existance was to Command, Control and Administer the units assigned to its geographic area. Army Groups have no permanent existance, and they have not been maintained on the Active or Inactive rolls. They have all been Disbanded, and will NOT be reestablished unless another World War is declared. Frankly, they all should be moved to the new headings of Allied Army Groups; First Allied Army Group, etc.

message: So is the original meaning of Wakan Tanka a little like the Hebrew word ELOHIM? ThePeg (talk) 03:08, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it basically means "ineffable," I think (since that sort of implies both "very important" and "incomprehensible").  As far as I can tell, the Sioux view of god(s) is sort of similar, in philosophy, to Neo-Platonism; their religious teachings involve statements that seem to be similar to the Platonic idea of Forms.  ELOHIM is an "honorific plural" (somewhat like using "vous," the plural "you", to be polite in French) of the word LOAH, whose basic meaning seems to be "a god".  The personal name of the Jews' God is YHWH, which means something like "I am," which may reflect the Jewish (and Christian) belief that God's nature is pure existence.

The other article is long as it is, but not to the point where a merger is unviable.
