message: The Hino section seems out-of-date. The March 2006 announcement and the expected beginning of production in the next month seems unlikely.
Parts of the section imply that production has not started, but on sentence says that the plant is producing cars.

Is there any relationsip between the Hino plant and the Toyota plant?

Possible problems: there are only two alternatives - should there be more to warrant a disambig page?  Also, I piped the link (which the disambig guideline says not to do) to the automotive feature, so it would point directly to the discussion of the 'three on the tree' term in the manual transmission article.  I am also not sure if it would be appropriate to rename the article about the band as "Three on the tree (band)" or similar. 68.13.240.14 (talk) 22:40, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Euler force

message: The first paragraph started with "'.. the Euler acceleration .. is the fictitious tangential force that is felt as a result of any radial acceleration". This is incorrect as an acceleration is not a force. The paragraph went on to give further details about the acceleration, some relatively spurious (etymology, aliases, a note about the article). The article subject itself was only mentioned in the second paragraph. "The Euler force .. is related to the Euler acceleration by F = ma, where a is the Euler acceleration". I've reworked the intro to remove the error and to mention the force first. I think it's an improvement but someone may object to my use of the word "reactive". If so, please reword it rather than reverting. 78.147.60.116 (talk) 14:56, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

Template talk:WSF Ferry Classes

message: I think this template should be converted to use the standard navbox template, then moved to the bottom of the relevant articles.  I see two ways to do this, either:
Option #1:
... or option #2:
The advantage of the first option is that it could also be used as a navbox for the individual ferry articles as well; but, it ends up being a very tall navbox when not collapsed.  While the second option is more comparable to the current structure.
Does anyone have a preference on which of these should be used? --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 22:48, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: As a possinble option #3 (or #2.5), you could use #2 for the class articles, and then make separate navboxes for each class. This would result in smaller boxes which might look nicer, but a fairly large number of separate navboxes. Overall I) think I'd go for #1 as it is the most informative, even if it is quite big. -- Kjet (talk · contribs) 11:44, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Talk:James Rand Jr.

message: While I have seen it claimed that the Library Bureau **invented** the vertical file, I am not convinced that that is true.  It is undoubtedly true that the Library Bureau was an early manufacturer and supplier of filing cabinets, file folders, etc.  Also it is true that the Library Bureau ran schools that taught filing.   Bob Bolin, Business Librarian, University of Nebraska-Lincoln
:*Whether you, or I, or anyone else is "convinced" of the origination of the filing cabinet is irrelevant.  The citations say so.  I'm no expert, either, I freely admit, but the citation says so.  If a citation from a reliable source can be found which contradicts the current citation, then Wikipedia is clear on what happens: Both citations are made, the claim stays in the article, and a footnote is added which says that there is a dispute about the invention of the filing cabinet.  Preferably, the article on "Filing cabinet" (if there is one) should be the final word, and this article shoudl agree with what is in that one (if one exists). - Tim1965 (talk) 00:47, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Is he authoritative enough that we should take his views seriously? But either not as authoritative as above, or likely to be biased on this subject.

message: The randomness of this wording could be interesting, but what exactly is the 'particular formation' which occurs in Great Britain and China? Is it a specific kind of hillock/knoll? or is it hillocks/knolls in general? - if so, it would be interesting to explain that in the whole of the world hillocks or knolls are (somehow) more often a specialist geographical feature to Britain and China then the rest of the world. Furthermore, since the article has a picture of Waterloo, maybe it could be mentioned that hillocks can be man-made. Also maybe some mention of hillforts, barrows and the etymology of -ock in the word: hillock.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.151.233.233 (talk) 05:53, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
