Talk:Landfill mining

message: --Alex 17:24, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

message: "The aeration of the landfill soil is a secondary benefit regrading the landfills future use." This doesn't make a lot of sense. Perhaps this means merely to say "regarding" rather than "regrading"? But even then it doesn't make a lot of sense. -Jmabel | Talk 00:15, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Group Machiels

message: The line "The concentration of aluminium in many landfills is higher than the concentration of aluminum in bauxite from which the metal is derived." seems like an exaggeration compared to the source's "the proportion of valuable and recoverable metals found in closed landfill
sites (eg, aluminium) can be as high as in some mined ore deposits."
Note the jump between "can be" and "some mined ore" to "many" and implied all mined ore.
Also note the quality of the source. This claim is based on an article by a lawyer, which lacks a lot of the rigor we might hope for for such a claim.
Maybe this should be revised or equipped with a better source. Metzger411 (talk) 06:09, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Exposure latitude

message: One of the problems with this may be that the term is used inconsistently within the filmmaking field to begin with - some use it as a synonym for exposure range or dynamic range, while the "purists" insist that latitude is the amount of over and underexposure you can make while maintaining an acceptable image. Since this is a somewhat subjective quality and also depends on developing and printing processes, it's not an absolute number, but should be somewhat less than the range of a stock. Girolamo Savonarola 12:37, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks much better to me. I wouldn't say clipping, though, since that's exclusively a digital concern. I'd probably say something like "the exposure can be shifted within the latitude without losing any range". That more correctly covers both the film and digital realms.

text: Since there seem to be two meanings of the word, I'd prefer if both versions would be stated. Peter S. 00:16, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't see the point, when there already is a page for the other usage. Certainly it can be mentioned and linked to - maybe at the top? But to use half of the article for a contradictory term which will only confuse things further seems a bit...sadistic? :) Girolamo Savonarola 00:18, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

text: Well, you said in your first paragraph here that the word is used in 2 different ways. If we refer to one definition by "only linking to it", we imply and enforce "only 1 way is the correct way" - and telling "the other way is actually correctly called something else". Which it isn't, if I understand correctly. "Exposure latitude" is used to refer to two concepts, and depending on who you are talking to ("normal cinematographers" and "old-school cinematographers"), they refer to two different things. That's why I suggest we talk about both definitions: because certain people use "latitude" for one thing, and certain people use "latitude" to talk about another thing. And no, I'm not sadistic - or just very rarely so :-D Peter S. 01:19, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  I changed it, but frankly, I'd be pretty damn confused if I stumbled upon this article myself. The first definition says "EL is dynamic range". The second definition says, "EL is something completely different that shouldn't be confused with dynamic range." I couldn't think of a good way to fix that short of nixing the first definition entirely. Alexdi 10:10, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Talk:RM plc

message: I'm not sure it is my place as an employee to make major edits, at risk of accusation of bias in writing style etc - however the page title and focus of the opening paragraph here isn't quite right? The structure of the Group is that RM plc owns (or has owned) various subsidiaries, including RM Education Ltd.
...so why is RM Education (a subsidiary) the title, and target of the RM plc redirect? And, opening text doesn't describe RM plc (more an outdated description of the subsidiary) yet the page goes on to have a section on plc Group-level "business structures".
It seems this is a hybrid of the two organisational levels that either needs to be separated out or the page restructured to correctly describe the business hierarchy. Either it is the page for RM plc (hence the redirect, and some content including plc divisions and subsidiary companies) or is just the page for RM Education Ltd (and so should ideally exist as a child page where the wider RM plc group content exists).
While it is correct that "RM Education Ltd" is perhaps the closest part of the Group to the original "Research Machines" business set up in 1973, the Group has evolved substantially over time. In modern day, even if combined with RM Results financials (reported separately to the City) the revenue share is only roughly equal to RM Resources (the TTS and Consortium brands) so it is no longer correct to call RM Education Ltd the 'principal division'. As presented in the 2020 Annual Reports, page 97 (50 in the PDF), the largest divisional revenue comes from RM Resources.

replies: text: There are plenty of roads that intersect Route 25A before the eastern terminus. They're just not state routes that go north of 25A. When you drive north on most roads on Long Island, and you reach NY 25A, you're usually at the end of that road. Otherwise the only place to go after that is some local street to the Long Island Sound, or in some cases the sound itself. NY 110 is the last one to continue north of 25A, and it doesn't become some county road or local street. ----DanTD (talk) 20:50, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I understand, but that would be better in NY 25A, not here.Mitch32(The Password is... See here!) 22:06, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Maybe, but it's 110 that crosses 25A, and the fact that it's the last one to do so that makes it unique. If you added this to the 25A article, you'd also have to add the fact that NY 101 is the only north-south road on Long Island to have a southern terminus with 25A, and that NY 108 is the only state highway on Long Island to have a northern terminus with 25A and no southern terminus with any other state highway. Those would be better suited for articles on NY 101 and NY 108 respectivley. The same goes for NY 110. ----DanTD (talk) 23:40, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

text: Thanks, y'all.  Yesterday I used 110 for part of my 16 miles ride from Pinelawn LIRR station to the Nikon camera repair shop in Melville and then, cameraless, onward to Huntington Station.
