Talk:Phasor measurement unit

message: I chose to edit the history section as it needs better context of why these devices are important in today’s power systems and potential uses for distribution systems as well. The article simply just mentions how the device was invented. The operation section needed to be updated with information about the new operating techniques of PMUs and uPMUs for distribution systems. Additionally some statements about how they currently operate are incorrect. Lastly, the applications section also needed to be appended and more detailed to include applications uPMUs. (Alexander Fiore 8 December 2016)
This page is written like an advertisement promoting a technology.  It has a positive bias with speculation.  More importantly, it doesn't reveal what synchrophasors actually are.  (What a mathematical construct like phasors has to do with synchronized timing measurements eludes me.  I don't think many other people will do better.)  OTOH, a web search reveals many references, so it seems to be notable.  Saligron 13:04, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Others cleaned out the commercial nonsense.  I have added some bridge concepts so that the relationship is clearer, also links to applications in power systems.  I deliberately used non technical language on the intro and image so that folks can get a surface understanding without the need to dive into the math details.  -J JMesserly (talk) 00:55, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Requested move 

message: SynchroPhasor is defined by IEEE C37.118-2005 Standard for Synchrophasors for Power Systems, IEEE Power Engineering Society, as: 
"A phasor calculated from data samples using a standard time signal as a reference for the measurement.  Synchronized phasors from remote sites have a defined common phase relatinship."
Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) is defined by the NASPI PSTT PMU Definition task group May 22, 2008 as: 
"A device that provides as a minimum synchrophasor and frequency measurements for one or more three phase AC voltage and/or current waveforms.  The synchrophasors can be single phase or symmetrical component values. The synchrophasor and frequency values must meet the general definition and minimum accuracy required in the IEEE Synchrophasor Standard, C37.118-2005."

thread_title: Musical numbers

message: The statement that Isabel Jay was in the 1904 London cast, later replaced by Ruth Vincent is, I think, incorrect. Both The Times (19 May 1904, p. 10) and The Manchester Guardian (19 May 1904, p. 12) reviewing the premiere of the English version state that Ruth Vincent played Véronique (exceedingly well, by both accounts). I know not The Play Pictorial, cited as reference for the existing wording, but I suspect that our two most authoritative daily organs must outweigh it. — Tim riley (talk) 08:39, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that Vincent originated the role in London.  I just added a scan of the musical score to the article and it lists the original cast as starring Vincent.  However, some sources say that Isabel Jay played the role.  See this and this.  Perhaps she replaced Vincent?  Or perhaps she was in another company?   Here is a photo of the original company, but I can't make out the caption, can you?

Talk:L'Amour de loin

message: "La vida breve" is definitely not a work of Jaufre Rudel. All we have of Jaufre are about half a dozen poems (or songs) in Occitan language, one of which ("Lanquan li jorn son lonc en mai"), mentions the "amor de lonh" 
"Lanquand li jorn son lonc en mai,
m'es bels douz chans d'auzels de lonh,
e quand me sui partitz de lai,
remembram d'un'amor de lonh:
vauc de talan enbroncs e clis,
si que chans ni flors d'albespis
nom platz plus que l'inverns gelatz."
"La vida breve" is by de Falla (or an novel by Juan Carlos Onetti). The phrase has been used also by others (it probably is based on the Latin saying "vita brevis, ars longa", but Jaufre Rudel has nothing to do woth it. 
Jaufre became a hero in Romanticism, when people believed his songs to have a biographical background. Which probably wasn't the case at all. (Authors who used the subject: Heinrich Heine, Algernon Swinburne, Ludwig Uhland, Giosuè Carducci, Edmond Rostand.)
To put it shortly: Saariaho's opera is based on a text by Amin Maalouf, which is inspired on Romantic writings inspired by Rudel.

Talk:Descriptive poetry

message: This stinketh mightily!  The critical distinction is muddleheaded and belongs with the year 1911.  The attempted distinction is between topographic poetry (a minor form) and things like Cowley's The Task, I suppose.  However, it's so thoroughly coterie that it never had much of a lasted effect, at least not in terms of engendering other poetry.  The English, for example, didn't really buy it.  I'm not sure that it had very long shadows in France, either.  However, the name of this article, the name of the distinction, is a repetition of the unrefined parlance of 17th c. critics translating 17th c. French neoclassicists.

Talk:Wilhelm Groener

message: There are some factual inaccuracies in this article in its current form, although the general contents are consistent with Groener's signficance. For example, Groener did not have a field command in the Ukraine, he was Chief of Staff in the Army Group Eichhorn. Admittedly, this position had important command functions under the Prussian-German system of dual command, where the commander and the chief of staff shared responsibility. Also, Groener did not succeed Hindenburg as Chief of the General Staff; he was Hindenburg's First General Quartermaster, and he resigned this post at the same time that Hindenburg stepped down. On the other hand, his position under Hindenburg gave him effective operational control over the German army. Some of these inaccuracies might stem from Wheeler-Bennett's book. mrs 13:51, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: I made the corrections Dr. Stoneman suggested.  I considered mentioning that, while Groener certainly wanted to take action against the SA, his desire to keep a lid on things for Chancellor Bruening and the double-dealing of his protege, Schleicher, meant that he was long seen as the _obstacle_ to effective action against the SA.  However, unless one did a big info-dump about the prevailing political crises it would be a little unclear, and he was quite anti-Nazi, so perhaps it's alright as-is.  142.167.161.66 (talk) 16:04, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
