Talk:Escapist (character)

message: I've expanded the article and tried to touch upon the character's publication history (novel and comics) as well as his background. Sadly, Wikipedia logged me out so the changes don't register as mine. This is me signing my work. Rajah1 11:12, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

message: As the character started as a fictional comic book character in a novel, only to later appear in actual comics, I think the old name Escapist (character) is better.  How do those here feel? 121.222.108.161 (talk) 12:37, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

Talk:USS North Carolina (SSN-777)

message: The ship's (old?) patch, :Image:USS North Carolina SSN 777 Patch.jpg includes the motto esse quam videri, which is the motto of the state of North Carolina, but the commissioning picture has the motto primus in proelio (translated as "First in fight"). A Navy webpage has a patch with that motto also, which seems a play on the slogan "First in Flight". What's the story? Was there a change made, or did some artist confuse the motto of North Carolina with that of North Carolina?

Talk:USS Claude V. Ricketts

message: I would like to have an external link included that points to The Big Nickel which is a site created to honor both the USS Biddle DDG-5 and, later, the USS Claude V. Ricketts DDG-5 as well as the crews that served aboard her.  The Big Nickel is a nickname given the ship by the crews, hence the name of the website.  There is currently no advertisement associated with the site and there are no plans, near or long term, to have any advertisements.  There are no fees required for participation, although crew members are requested to register.
The site is used to communicate with crew members and to allow them to exchange messages and information via a crew forum.  Although not yet an official association, it is anticipated that this will be discussed and passed at the next crew reunion to be held late April, 2009.
If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Thanks.

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a non-free use rationale.

Talk:Turning Torso

message: It is not clear to me from the article whether the building as a whole has a motor and turns, whether the individual segments of the building are linked to a motor and turn, or whether the building, once constructed, does not turn. A turn is a rotation in time. A twist is a fixed (constant) turn. If I find out from other sources, I will return and edit the article and this note. Otherwise, I invite others to figure this out from reliable sources. David Spector (talk) 00:20, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  But does the building turn? 

message: I'm deleting this part, because it's meaningless. It's the 45th tallest building in Europe overall and it's hard (and again, meaningless) to check which of them are residential and what does that even mean. Does 1 floor of apartment make building a residential building? Does it mean "mainly residential"? Then, I suppose, it's the second tallest after Triumph Palace. Does the residential space just need to be substantial? What is substantial? About 1/3? Then it's smaller than The Shard, Sky Tower or City of Capitals and I suppose some others. There's a few more that have some residential space. I don't see the point in checking how much, since the "substantial" part would be arbitrary. To illustrate further how meaningless it is - Turning Torso is smaller than Sky Tower, but it probably has apartments located higher (54th floor vs 48th floor). Probably, because there's no strict standard for a floor height.
If someone wishes to go over the list of the highest buildings in Europe and check which of them have residential area and how many, then be may guest.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.10.227.127 (talk) 17:12, 20 September 2013 (UTC)
