Talk:Water pollution

message: Here is more content that you deleted, User:Smokefoot. I don't think it should be deleted. Again, I think it would be fairly easy to find suitable references of this, even by just looking at the respective Wikipedia articles on acid rain for example:
* Acidity caused by industrial discharges (especially sulfur dioxide from power plants) or by increased carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere (see also ocean acidification). In industrialized areas, acid rain has in the past resulted in pollution of lakes and rivers due to air pollution with dissolved oxides of sulfur and nitrogen.
I don't have time today but I am just putting it here so that it's not forgotten. EMsmile (talk) 16:27, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I could see ocean acidification being a component of marine pollution, but I have not encountered concerns about CO2 content and especially not SO2 content of fresh water.   I mean atmospheric pollutants are unwelcome for sure and must interact with freshwater, but it is sort of a minor topic as far as I know. While on this topic, there must be lists of major water polluters and their effluents.  Pulp mills being one.--Smokefoot (talk) 16:41, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
replies: text:  I have now added the content about acidity back in with references in the section on atmospheric pollution under nonpoint sources. Yes, acid rain is more of a problem for fresh water, whereas CO2 is (eventually) becoming a problem for oceans. Both freshwater and oceans are part of water pollution, so they should both be included in this article. - Regarding a list of major (industrial) water polluters, I think that kind of content is available at industrial wastewater which we link to. There is also this article: Water pollution in the United States which we link to in the "by country" section.  EMsmile (talk) 08:19, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

thread_title:  Animals using their eyes... 

message: I think it's worth mentioning in the article that many individuals with dark skin exhibit naturally dark sclera (usually of a yellowish or brown tint, but sometimes orange), and this is a natural, benign condition. There are relatively few references on it, and this is on of the only I have ever come across: http://www.knowswhy.com/why-do-africans-have-yellow-eyes/
I've also read this is due to an excess of melanin in the eye, which is why you primarily see it in individuals with very dark skin, which seems more likely than the claim it's due to subconjunctival fat. Sadly, the most common reference I've found (mainly in old texts) is that this some "primitive" trait comparing it to the dark sclera of gorillas (which are usually jet black), even though one can observe it in very dark skinned humans across the world, even in non-africans. It would be helpful if someone could incorporate more extensive, verifiable references on this, if they do exist.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.110.235.68 (talk) 01:26, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Munchlax

message: How does anyone know it it's number is #387? This number is on both this page and the List of Pokémon by number. Could someone check whether this is right, please? NP Chilla 19:55, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: #387

message: Most of the other Wiki articles about 4th generation Pokemon have sections regarding which moves they have displayed in the movies/TV series, and are therefore considered confirmed moves in the games until otherwise disproven. Can someone more familiar with the movies and TV series please make a similar section for Munchlax? I've heard from various sources that in the anime May's Munchlax uses Focus Punch, Metronome, and Solarbeam, and in the 7th movie the featured Munchlax uses Extremespeed. This is mostly just hearsay though, so if someone who actually knows this for fact makes a section listing Munchlax's confirmed moves so far it would be much appreciated. --Thores 06:09, 05 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It would seem likely that Rest will probably be a default move for Munchlax, as it was with Snorlax. Or if Munchlax is obtained via egg (sense it is a baby pokemon) then Rest will probably be one of it's egg moves. Pound seems like it could also be included, because Munchlax is normal type. But then you'd have to consider the long list of other normal type moves that could be possible. And about what you said, It seems strange that Munchlax can use Solarbeam. But Metronome seems possible, only because that was one of Togepi's egg moves. And about Extreme Speed, it seems highly unlikely (alot more unlikely than solarbeam) that a baby pokemon would know such a strong attack. (Think about the instant KOs there would be). And about what I mentioned about pound, I noticed you included Focus Punch as an attack May used on the anime. So then there are several possibilites for it's egg moves, with them including one or two of the following attacks: Metronome,Pound,Rest and Growl. Focus Punch seems unlikely with Pound being a more preferred egg move among normal type pokemon. And Growl is also highly popular among normal and some baby pokemon. Solarbeam can automatically be removed from possibly egg moves because it's a grass attack. With Munchlax being a pure normal type it's obvious it's egg moves will be only normal attacks. (Unless for some odd reason it learns something like Bite, which I beleive is a Dark? type) HurricaneJeanne 07:42, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Official Sinn Féin

message: 'party became known as Official Sinn Féin'  - previous version had renamed, but I don't think the party was ever officially named 'Official Sinn Féin'.
Added explanation of 'official republican movement' largely to ease explanation of later splits etc.
Only further split in 1970s as far as I know was with INLA/IRSP. The IPLO was one of several later offshoots of the INLA. Dem Left split was in 1992, see below.
Added dates of both name changes.
Added info about Democratic Left although it may be more strictly relevant to WP article.
'Despite the numerous splits, and large migration to Workers Party, Official Sein Féin is still said to exist as a separate entity.' Definitely not. It officially changed its name to, first SFWP and then WP, without any splits. In the last couple of years some Workers Party members split off to form a new organisation based mainly around Newry called (confusingly) the Official Republican Movement. I didn't mention this because I wasn't sure it was important enough to mention.
Added factoid about Provos having initially been nicknamed 'pinheads' analogously with 'stickies'. Also added link to WP website. Palmiro 02:05, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)

message: I've merged the SFWP article with this one. There was nothing useful on its page that wasn't already here, and since it only represents another name for the same organisation a merge seemed better.

Talk:Bimetallic strip

message: Should delete: External link showing metal loop motor powered by warm water is not a bimetal but is nitinol, which does not work using the principles of bimetal, but rather comes from a phase change in the crystal structure of the nitinol alloy.  External link is misleading.
Change: spark igniter was changed to a piezo type, but these are not thermostat controlled. I would contact the contributor directly, but this was an unregistered user.
Expanded to become an electricaly powered spark igniter for decorative fireplaces.
If the contributor can back up the piezo ignition in gas dryers, please add explicity and notate in this page. Being a registered user has its advantages, please register.

thread_title:  [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Biography/Assessment#Class_parameter|Biography assessment rating]] comment 

message: I would like to contest the idea that the law of diminishing returns is a "universal truth." This is really a political economist's way of looking at it; but Henry Carey is a physical economist. Besides that, even the law of diminishing returns page questions whether this is a law. If truth be told, Marx himself did not think this was a law, rather, a mere function of the rise in constant capital in any capitalist system, with the resulting fall in variable, and, thenceforth, the loss of surplus-value to the capitalist. I am sure Carey has a solution to the law, but I haven't read enough of Carey to ascertain this. Will anyone be offended if we omit it? Please provide some explication. If we converse without "debating", things might even prove to be greatly enjoyable. And if I don't receive some responses within a few days, I may take it upon myself to delete it.

Talk:Compactification (mathematics)

message: As far as i can tell, compactification of extra dimensions in string theory has nothing to do with Stone-Čech compactification in point set topology.  In the first case, we simply choose a compact manifold (e.g. CY3) to replace a noncompact one, turning the spacetime M4xR6 into M4xCY3 by fiat.  We do not require that there exist an isometry (indeed, there will not be one), or even a continuous embedding from R6 into CY3, nor do we require any uniqueness.  In the second case, given a noncompact topological space, we look for a (in some instances unique) compact space with a continuous embedding.
I think they should be in separate articles.  The are simply not related.  Comments?
:Well, no. The Stone-Cech is the most complicated compactification, as the one-point is the simplest. Compactification with no continuity condition would be a strange thing (one can Stone-Cech a discrete space if one really has to ...); I suspect that the string theory usage is driven by certain motivations that could be explained, but if you are talking about non-compact to compact manifolds, there must be quite an amount of topology to carry over.
:So, some examples of compactifications would add to the article.
