Talk:Microwave

message: In the growing field of superconducting quantum computing, microwaves play a significant role. For example, a number of superconducting qubit architectures rely on microwave pulses for control and readout. I think this information could be worth bringing up. To my best knowledge, I don't think it's mentioned in the article anywhere yet. Just a comment. — QB2k (talk) 08:16, 20 December 2022 (UTC)

message: In the History section, can we have consistency when mentioning the early inventors nationalities? Either add the nationality of all mentioned or remove them. There is a German physicist, Indian physicist and a Russian physicist. No mention of Maxwell, Lodge and Rayleigh being British and Righi being an Italian physicist.
Bose was in fact British Indian and in modern terms he would be classed as Bagladeshi not Indian.

Talk:Michael Hutchence

message: There's something inconsistent. The article is categorized in Burials at Forest Lawn Memorial Park (Hollywood Hills), which is an American graveyard. Now, how is it compatible with the fact that he was dead in Sydney, Australia and, most of all, as the inscription on his cenotaph in Sydney reads, his ashes were scattered in January 1998? -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 00:29, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: I understand your frustration at the lack of explanatory text to provide better context. As a start, I added a bit explanatory context to the lead; see what you think. Proposed deletion, I think, was to the wrong approach to handling this, in part because the article is not hopeless and can be improved. Website application design and relational databases are very worthy topics to cover, but are off-topic for this article, which is specifically about the MySQL product.

"In January 2010, before Oracle's acquisition of MySQL AB, Monty Widenius started a GPL-only fork, MariaDB. MariaDB is based on the same code base as MySQL server 5.5 and aims to maintain compatibility with Oracle-provided versions."
suggests that the first version of MariaDB was based on MySQL 5.5.
But version 5.5 is when MariaDB stopped tracking changes from MySQL.  The project was forked from MySQL before that.  As can be seen if you follow the citation link
The MariaDB wikipedia page indicates that v5.1 was created in October 2009.  v5.5 was released in 2012.

replies: text: It's difficult to have accurate dates here.  The Europeans were still using the Julian calendar, which by that time had accumulated at least 10 days of error in comparison to the solar date.  That is, the summar solstice for 1520 was probably around June 11th according to Cortes' calendar.  Madman 22:41, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If you take June 30th as Noche Triste, the strongest narrative from multiple sources (Diaz/Cortes) is Moctezuma was sent out to calm his people and hit with a stone/stabbed "two or three" (Diaz) days before he died. It seems to have taken him several days to die, all while fighting was happening. Diaz gives a casual "next day. Then the next day" narrative, but it suggests Moctezuma was wounded June 28th. Cortes, who also does the "Next day, next day" narrative (Letter to Charles) says he was hit in the head and died "within three days" and that he had his body taken out to his people by prisoners while still in the palace. Cortes describes at least two more days of combat before Noche Triste. Florentine Codex gives no timeline but says his body was retrieved but cursed by the people. Duran says his body was abandoned on Noche Triste and discovered in the palace later. Aguilar suggests Cortes murdered the rest of the prisoners after he died and dumped all the bodies outside the palace. Anyway, I'd put my money on June 28th and his death probably factored into them wanting to leave ASAP. It's all a mess. - Nawledge — Preceding undated comment added 18:53, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
