Talk:Department of State (Ireland)

message: I have removed the column on past departments as titles have changed so many times that we could easily list five/six past names in the case of some departments. Djegan 21:06, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

message: I have a full list of name changes at User:Jnestorius/List of changes in Irish government departments; it also lists a few functional transfers, but not most of them. Garret Fitzgerald has criticised the way it only takes a statutory instrument, as opposed to an act of the Oireachtas, to effectively abolish one department and/or create another, by the legal expedient of renaming, moving all the old functions out, and/or moving a bunch of new functions in. The current Department of Transport is not, legally speaking, the one created in 1959; that was abolished in 1983. The current department was created in 1973 as the Department of Public Service. jnestorius(talk) 20:14, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

message: The reason I would say Guo Jia is in the
game series is because he was always around
Cao Cao or either giving out good advice to
Cao Cao when the time was needed.
More or less, Guo Jia and Cao Cao (And a few
others) see things on the same level of battle.
And that is why Cao Cao favors Guo Jia so much
in the novel. (So that is why he is in the game
series.)

This event saw the debut of the Ferrari marque (with the Tipo 815).
As the entries for Ferrari and the Tipo 815 state, while the car was designed by Enzo Ferrari it was not possible to call the car a Ferrari to to contractual issues with Alfa Romeo and the car was officially named the AAC tipo 815.

message: The Wikipedia page says: "When it resumed in 1940 during war time, it was dubbed the Grand Prix of Brescia, and held on a 100 km (62 mi) short course in the plains of Northern Italy that was lapped nine times."
According to everything I can find, including the excellent Grand Prix History site (http://www.grandprixhistory.org/mille_miglia_1940.htm), the triangle from Brescia to Cremona to Mantua back to Brescia measured 104 miles, not 100 kilometers. Using today's roads and Google Maps, it's about 184 km. Using nine laps of 104 miles apiece, it would have been a 936-mile race, not the 558 miles suggested by the Wiki entry.

Talk:Les Mistons

message: In what way do the following sentences enhance our understanding of the film, its merits and its context?
  Thus he also became a predecessor of French film directors such as Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amelie) 
Since Truffaut's death in 1984 as one of the most respected film directors France has produced, it would be surprising if his work has not influenced a great number of his successors.
  In 2013 the Museum of Modern Art in New York screened this film together with Truffaut's The 400 Blows. 
Does a showing at MOMA warrant a Wikipedia entry? Has the film ever been seen anywhere else, like Buenos Aires or Beijing?
I suggest that both sentences add nothing and could well be deleted.

Talk:Team Penske

message: Hi all,
I cleaned up the CART and IndyCar race results so that they looked a bit more visually appealing, but I'm discovering that for many seasons past users have just lumped both the Penske and the March or Lola chassis together under the same row. Whenever I can I try to separate the chassis and give them their own row, even if it doubles the size of the chart.
My problem is that there are several seasons in the 1980s where I just don't know which chassis was used at which event. In 1987, for example, the season page details who used which chassis at each event, so I could rely on that to rearrange the race results. But in 1986, I have no idea, and that's why they're still lumped together in one row. A similar problem is with the engines, but that comes up less often (I separated the Ilmor and the Mercedes engines in the 1994 race results and gave each their own row, for example).
Anybody have any idea what specific chassis Penske ran back in the '80s at each event? Or even why Penske didn't commit to his own chassis during this time? I'm genuinely curious.
