Talk:Deniliquin railway line

message: For Echuca railway line, Victoria, how do you mean "the border crossing icon looks a mess compared to the main bridge one"?
As far as I can tell the image  is much clearer than the image , because in the latter I can't see what is border and what is river. --121.200.0.46 (talk) 02:31, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I just don't like the weird round thingy in the middle. Anyway, I believe the border crossing icon (as well as the rest of them) comes from the German Wikipedia and were intended for international border crossings. In this case it is a state border, with no border control, and the track is owned by the same people on either side under the 1922 Border Railways Act. In the end, it seems the issue is about what everyone thinks looks better! Wongm (talk) 03:51, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I know, but I just have trouble distinguishing between the river and the border. I personally don't have a problem with the 'round thingy', I just think the round thingy is clearer. --121.200.0.46 (talk) 03:55, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Revert to the original correct name "Deniliquin railway line". There is no reference to this line being know as "Murray Valley railway line", it has never been known as this name in it's history, also, a Google search returns no results for the changed name. This other name also will cause confusion with the Murray Basin Rail Project. -- ThylacineHunter (talk) 03:31, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

message: Jules Verne writes in In Search of the Castaways (Les Enfants du capitaine Grant) of a railway in Victoria. It goes from Melbourne to Sandhurst (which is the present Bendigo, I guess), via Kyneton and Castlemaine.  An accident on this line is important for the novel.  Is this that railway?  If so, it could well be mentioned in the article. Fomalhaut76 (talk) 14:15, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Rothesay-class frigate

message: '[T]he mortars were more effective for cold war warning...' Not clear.
:A depth charge can be fired to deliberately miss the target, and it will explode when it reaches its set depth, thus easy to use for a "warning shot". A torpedo cannot be reliably launched to deliberately miss, and even if it could there is no way to trigger the warhead. A torpedo that misses its target will continue to run until its motor stops, then it sinks without exploding. Thus a torpedo cannot be used for a "warning shot". Torpedoes are also orders of magnitude more expensive than low tech depth charges. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 20:29, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  NZ ships 

message: The lead of this article says: "The Rothesay class, or Type 12M frigates were a class of frigates". But we also have Leander-class frigate which says: "The Leander-class, or Type 12M frigates". Perversely, in the "See also" section of the Rothesay-class article, it says "Leander-class frigate – the Type 12M frigate, a general-purpose design following on from the success of the Type 12I". However, in the "See also" section of the Leander-class article, it says "Rothesay-class frigate, the preceding Type 12M frigate." Presumably the "M" suffix stands for "Modified" and the "I" stands for "Improved". We have yet another article, Type 12 frigate, which backs the "Rothesay-class Type 12M" and "Leander-class Type 12I" theory.
The only text I have to hand is Marriott, Leo (1990), Royal Navy Frigates Since 1945, Second Edition; which gives Type 12 for both the Whitby-class frigate and the Rothsay-class, and Type 12M for the Leanders. Thoughts anybody?  Alansplodge (talk) 15:21, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: According to Conway's the Rothesays were repeats of the Type 12 Whitbys and the Leanders are incorrectly referred to as Type 12s because other than hull form, the Leanders share next to nothing with the previous vessels. (pp. 519-520) Friedman in British Destroyers and Frigates calls the Rothesays a modified Type 12 design.(p. 368 in the electronic version) On page 439, it says the Leanders were not given a type designation because the class had already been given a name Leander. The final Rothesay hull was reordered as the first vessel of the Leander class. (p. 441) Still looking for info. Llammakey (talk) 17:20, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

text: Jane's Fighting Ships 1980-1981 says the Leanders were an improved version of the Type 12 but does not give a Type designation, unlike the Rothesays (Modified Type 12). Brown in Rebuilding the Royal Navy calls the Leanders Type 12s (p. 16 in the electronic version) and "Improved Type 12"s as the section heading on p. 200. Llammakey (talk) 17:26, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

message: Nearly 20,000 Americans and their foreign-national partners are being denied the right to live together in the U.S.—one of the many, many profoundly discriminatory consequences of the Defense of Marriage Act. Efforts at repeal have been building for awhile, but the new Congress seems unlikely to be sympathetic. The courts are the new frontier; there are now five challenges working their way inevitably to the U.S. Supreme Court. In the meantime, bi-national gay couples can always go to Canada, which provides asylum to gay people who cannot find safe haven elsewhere.

I'm not sure what he means precisely, possibly due to notational confusion. RayTalk 19:23, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  A comment 

message: One stated that for a holomorphic function f(z) the function \varphi(z)=\log|f(z)| is a subharmonic function. I think I have a counterexample, since this is only valid for functions which do not have a local maximum in G.
Let f(z)=z^2 and G=D(0,\tfrac{1}{2}), a closed disk centered at 0 with radius a half, then 
0 \leq \frac{1}{2\pi} \int_{0}^{2\pi} \log|r^2e^{2i\theta}|d\theta=2\log r < 0, if 0<r<1
  
Am I wrong?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.212.22.34 (talk) 15:41, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you confused f(0) and \log|f(0)| in your counterexample. If you interpret \log(0)=-\infty, (as one is supposed to do), the inequality really holds. Vigfus (talk) 20:23, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: But in the section Examples it is also stated, that for an analytic function f the function \log|f| is a subharmonic function. This is definitely not true. Consider for example the identity function  f(x)=x  on \mathbb{R}^1. Then \Delta \log|f(x)|=-x^{-2}, which is negative in general.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.152.55.74 (talk) 17:37, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
