replies: text: That puzzled me as well. It seems that Japan had some destroyers stationed in Malta, under the command of the Royal Navy (see Kaba-class destroyer), and presumably as compensation a bunch of German U-Boats were handed over to Japan at the end of the war. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 19:38, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Talk:List of Berkeley Landmarks in Berkeley, California

message: "List of Berkeley, California Landmarks, Structures of Merit, and Historic Districts" is confusing. "California Landmark" are a different list but because of the punctuation it reads unclear. PigeonChickenFish (talk) 03:04, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: Another option would be "List of Berkeley Landmarks, Structures of Merit, and Historic Districts in Berkeley, California", however I am less inclined to this choice because I noticed most of the other articles also have secondary types of heritage register status (in this example 'Berkeley Landmark' is higher than 'Structure of Merit') but they didn’t include this secondary type in the Wikipedia article name.

Talk:British R-class submarine

message: The R-class was a remarkable design and, as stated in the article, was the fore-runner of the modern Fleet ("hunter-killer") submarine.
My understanding is that, in 1947, the plans were collected from the Public Record Office and re-examined by the Royal Navy with the possibility of putting the thirty-year old design back into production. After further consideration, however, it was decided that this would not be feasible, because the accommodation of contemporary sensors required a minimum displacement of 1680 tons.  --Vvmodel (talk) 19:00, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The postwar Danish Delfinen class submarine was only 573 tons displacement (surfaced), so the talk of 1680 tons being the minimum may have just been a pretext for the Royal Navy to avoid having any coastal submarines. Salmanazar (talk) 15:28, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Importance, and later interest 

message: The R-class were the first Royal Navy submarines to be fitted with six bow torpedo tubes, number of torpedoes being considered more important than range or size of warhead carried when attacking U-boats.
British submarines from around then-on were intended to be used against warships, as most of the UK's likely enemies had little in the way of Merchant Navies, so the main type of vessel that was likely to be encountered were warships, so UK fleet submarines were given a bow tube arrangement of six tubes to ensure that they would have sufficient fire-power to hit and damage a large-size warship without reloading. This had the disadvantage of demanding that the hull section at the bow could not be circular, as for example, German U-boats with only four bow tubes, so the resulting hull was not as strong and had a lower crush depth than the equivalent German submarine. German submarines were optimized for attacking (mostly British) merchant vessels, so a four-tube bow armament was adequate. This accounts for the greater diving depth of the average U-boat over the equivalent RN submarine design. This need to maximise the bow salvo possible led to the later T class submarine having additional external (outside the pressure hull and reloadable only in port) tubes fitted, at one time resulting in a possible bow salvo of ten.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.40.248.28 (talk) 15:06, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Talk:German submarine U-125 (1940)

message: I've moved much of the text in the "Sinking.." section to a "Controversy" section, and changed the name to "Fate", to match the layout on other U-boat pages. Xyl 54 (talk) 12:33, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Layout

message: The more I look at this section the more I think it’s a bloody cheek.
Is it an attempt to throw some mud, to see if it’ll stick?
Is this even notable?
This isn’t  by any means  the first, or the only instance in the Battle of the Atlantic of survivors not being picked up; and Folkers, in U-125, sank 17 ships without offering any assistance at all to the survivors.
U-boats invariably fired on ships without warning, and made no provision for survivors afterwards; U-boats also generally fired on ships that stopped to pick survivors up, which is why DEMS instructions were to refrain from picking up their own men, let alone enemy sailors.
So why would they or anyone else expect different?
Is it even controversial?
If the U-boat Arm had acted within the “deeply-held code of conduct at sea”, or even within international law, they might have had some complaint. As it is, it’s maybe more remarkable that Snowflake was prepared to pick them up at all.
This isn’t supported by any reference saying that it is controversial, so who is it thinks it is?
Did it even happen? 
There’s no reference here to say this even happened in this instance, and I’ve never seen it mentioned in regard to U-125. Neither Kemp nor Neistle mention it in their accouonts of U-125’s end, and neither does Gannon, who’s probably the definitive account of the ONS-5 battle.
So can anyone give a good reason for it to stay?

Talk:German submarine U-185

message: If U-185 was sunk on 24 August 1943 and August Maus was one of the 25 survivors who became a POW, how was he awarded the Knights Cross on 21 September? The article itself is not at all clear and I can find nothing to suggest how this feat was achieved.
I've replaced 'returned' with 'docked' and 'sailed'. You can't return to somewhere that you haven't been to.
I've spaced out the entries in the table purely because they are easier to see on the edit page, (I realise it makes no difference on the article page).

Talk:List of places in California (S)

message: There was a dairy located at 2046 Stillman Street, Selma, California at the turn of the 20th century.  It was called Lloyd's Dairy or Stillman Street Dairy.  Bill Lloyd ran a dairy on the north side of Stillman Street west of McCall Avenue for several years.  The dairy corrals and barn have been gone a long time, but the Lloyd house still stands (now over 100 years old) at that site. 
Everyone liked Lloyd's dairy.  He delivered milk in a cart with a step on the back to stand on.  He put the quarts and pints in a crate and hired two young boys to run to the houses with the full bottles and pick up the empties. He drove a big gentle horse that seemed to know where all the customers lived and stopped at all the places so the milk could be delivered.  That was long before they pasteurized milk and it was sold raw.  Tuberculosis among cattle wasn't common in those days.
The people started building homes north of downtown when the area got built up south and west of Selma's town site, but Lloyd stayed with his dairy until about 1915 or 1916.  The neighbors didn't complain very much about the cattle, but building lots were selling good and fast. Bill Lloyd was a fine man.  His friends told about how he'd leave milk at two or three places when he couldn't collect for it.  There were three or four kids at each of the places and he said the kids needed milk.  
A long ago reporter, L. R. "Tango" Johnston, who was a noted Selma history buff in his day, collected this information. The title of the column read "The way it was; Stillman Street's dairy".  Additional information outside of the article: Pioneer Selma resident William Lloyd born June 11, 1852 passed away January 31, 1925 after a lingering illness.  William Lloyd passed away at his home in Selma on a Saturday evening.  He had been sick for over a year and had been confined to his bed for the past six months.  
Mr. Lloyd came to Selma from Missouri in 1886 and had resided here continuously ever since.  He was well known and held in high esteem by a large circle of friends.  He was a native of Illinois, aged 73 years, 8 months and 20 days.  He was survived by his wife, Jane (8/28/1861 - 2/10/1947) along with three sons, Frank and Walter of Fresno, and Ralph of San Francisco.  Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd had another son, William "Willie", who was born in 1885 and died in 1913. 
The home that they built is still in excellent condition and has become a wonderful home for us. Bill and Karla   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.31.170.51 (talk) 03:29, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Dave Schweisguth 21:41, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Something seems wrong with this line: "When people talk about the 'Seven Hills' of San Francisco, they refer to the 55 original hills: Telegraph Hill, Nob Hill, Russian Hill, Rincon Hill, Mount Sutro, Twin Peaks and Mount Davidson."  Seven hills are listed following the colon, not 55.  So what's the number 55 doing there?  Either some words are missing, or some words should be eliminated.

Talk:Sulaym ibn Qays

message: I removed the Legacy section, it's misleading and unreferenced. The Khoi cite claims that Sunnis narrated from Sulaym Ibn Qays in reliable collections but makes no citations as to which Sunni collections he's speaking of. In any case, even if Sulaym was narrated from, "The Book of Sulaym ibn Qays" which is purportedly his has nothing to do with the Sunni chains nor is the book mentioned by the Sulaym's alleged contemporaries or some of the earliest Muslim scholars. Furthermore, the link to the "playandlearn.org" website was also misleading as playandlearn similarily didn't cite a single Sunni source that allegedly transmits from Sulaym. In fact, the playandlearn link doesn't even discuss Sulaym as being found in Sunni collections and the passing reference made to Sunnis isn't about Sulaym but about some alleged narrations in Sunni collections concerning the Shi'a concept of Imamah. xx-Mohammad Mufti-xx 11:38, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Legacy

message: It says there is some doubt about Sulaym Ibn Qays al Hilali existence though it quotes grounded sources about him having existed, in reality the problem is deeper. Kitab Sulaym Ibn Qays is deeply controversial because both Sunnis (who obviously will oppose Shiism and anything related) and Shia scholars of the Rationalist school (quite a few) rejected this book for personal reasons. But the traditional scripture dating back to over a millenia of Imamiyyah/Twelver Islam always praised this book and the author. 
Sulaym Ibn Qays is quoted in numerous Shia books as a narrator himself, Kitab al Kafi of Shaykh Kulayni among others. Shia muhaddiths and Shia scholars of the scripturalist school never denied his existence nor the authenticity of his book.
The book creates controversy because of the jealousy it created from its early development on the contrary of other hadiths collections and traditions.
