Talk:Leather

message: There are loads of leather terms that could do with defining on this page
* pull-up leather
* aniline leather
* semi-aniline leather
* rub-off leather
* pigmented leather
* nappa  / napa leather
Perhaps there needs to be a 'Terms' section, alongside 'Grades'. Chumpih t 04:13, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Aniline is covered in the full-grain entry; "aniline leather" really refers to the type of dye used (see aniline dye) and is basically a shortened way of saying aniline-dyed full grain leather. Some of these terms are just simple combinations of adjective with "leather" and don't really need a separate mention, but a glossary of leather terms may be helpful for some parts. oknazevad (talk) 13:20, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text:  You have just reverted an attempt to include the glossary here.   Please consider WP:OWN. Chumpih t 10:40, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: WP:AGF, but that was a poor insertion, and worthy of reversion - definitely not a case of ownership.  I would have removed it as well.  I'm not sure that any kind of glossary is really necessary - certainly as per oknazevad, most of the terms are not really a glossary in any case.  Perhaps draft up your proposal either in your own draft, or on the talk here?  Chaheel Riens (talk) 12:35, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you. Exactly what I was going to say. It was incomplete and should have been drafted elsewhere first, otherwise it clogs the edit history.

Talk:Linguist (disambiguation)

message: This has been the topic for discussion on the Linguistics talk page, but the right place to settle the dispute is here, as the sense in question is one that is not dealt with in the article Linguistics.
MrsCaptcha, seeing that the polyglot sense is well established according to all major dictionaries (e.g. OED, M-W), that in fact it precedes the scholar sense historically and that contemporary speakers of English still tend to use linguist in this sense: what is the reason you insist on withholding this piece of information from our users who might in fact be looking for it?

Talk:Lorentz transformation

message: I think that section gives a false idea of the Lorentz transformations , based on the fact that the boosted observer F’ is supposed to measure time intervals by observing a clock at rest in F !
But why should he do that ? He simply takes his own clock (wristwatch time) ! Which of course runs at the same rate than the clock at rest in F ! 
And by using his own clock he will measure the correct proper time in F’ !
The Lorentz transformations are an intrinsic Physical property of Spacetime! That is  completely forgotten in the traditional presentations !
--Chessfan (talk) 07:42, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Good point. I have reworded the paragraphs to avoid the ambiguous "boosted observer" and to make sure that "ticks" refer to single events, so that time intervals are measured "between two ticks". I also changed the order to remain closer to the standard sources. - DVdm (talk) 08:16, 11 October 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Physical implications of time dilation. 

message: The Lorentz Transformation  article is very  math oriented. But you failed to mention the Geometric Algebra (GA) approach , which is much easier than the tensorial method. For example , I could show you , based on many papers by Hestenes, Doran , ... that all the very basic results of Special Relativity , time dilation , length contraction , time and length units , are contained in a single GA relation
e’0 e0= e’0 . e0 + e’0∧e0
But sorry , I will not do so , because that could be qualified original research !

thread_title:  Dual Map 

message: The linear system presented in the "linear system" section of this page seems to contradict the definition of linear systems given by Wikipedia -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_system.  In the definition, a system must have the properties of superposition and homogeneity.  The linear system present here does not have either. In particular, this page implies that y = mx + b could be a linear system, while https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_system states that it cannot be (y = mx + b has neither the property of superposition nor homogeneity).  Note that y = mx is linear with regard to both pages.  How can this conflict be resolved?  Flexpicker (talk) 19:55, 9 October 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: The equation y = mx + b is a trivial system of one equation in one unknown.  I think we can say that this system has the properties of superposition and homogeneity in a trivial sense.  In fact, some systems of several equations which have no unique solution reduce to y = mx + b.  While considering your post, I looked at the articles Linear algebra, Linear system, and System of linear equations and noticed other problems.  They needed a definition and citations.
