replies: text:  OK, I think I've solved it.  It's the old No 1 slipway, which was alongside the Olympic ways (2 & 3). The one of the original four slipways which wasn't removed when the others were replaced to build the Olympics. A few of the sources are wrong, as they number the big ways as 1 & 2. Belgenland wasn't built on them.  I don't know if the ways were ever renumbered later? Andy Dingley (talk) 14:43, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  Sorry, I missed the third screw. If the date is a misprint for 1915 It would be before she was taken over as the Belgic. Failing that it would be when she was converted to a liner in 1923 but I can't see the screws being removed for that. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 18:29, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

Category talk:Browsers

message: I am not sure what to do about that one: Many Game Server Browsers also support other content like scanning for Music, Download-Servers, Teamspeak-Servers and so on. Should we open a general category "resource server browser" and place some game server browsers in it as a start? (e.g. qstat can search/scan/list/join Voice-Com-Servers, qtracker can search/scan/list/join Internet-Radio). Most likely there are similiard tools which have little to do with game server browsers although I don't recall one right now.
A good name should be "resource browser" or "general resource server browser". Its a bit stupid because while we have a lot of products which fit in this category it actually has no name itself. Even the "older" category "game server browser" was more or less named by the need to name a category, before this cathegory was named noone has ever used the word.Crass Spektakel 21:57, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Episode 2 (Primeval)

message: * Episode Two (Primeval) said "Giant spiders, most likely Mesothelae as Mesothelae featured in Walking With Monsters and these spiders are of the same design. (A colony came through the anomaly, returned home.)."
* List of creatures in Primeval#G says that they are Solifugae.
* Mesothelae says that no such giant spider is known; the animal in Walking with Monsters was originally Megarachne, which was thought to be a spider, but (too late for it to be left out of Walking with Monsters) it was found to be a eurypterid.

replies: text: There is no need to debate this. The official site says their related to the camel spider, a Solifugae. It was mentioned in the episode that they had pincers instead of fangs, they where even shown to have pincers in one scene, a Solifugae trait and the spider shown in Walking With Monsters is a different design and never really existed.

Talk:Reformation Wall

message: Is there any information about how these particular figures were picked for veneration? I would like to know why, for example, Martin Luther is not amoung the select.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thecrystalcicero (talk • contribs) 14:52, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It's because this is a monument to Calvinism, which was the particular strain of Protestantism that was born in Geneva.  As a result, it reflects key figures in Calvinism and related theologies (Prebyterianism and Puritanism), but not Lutheranism.  I would guess that, besides the theological differences, Lutheranism may have been excluded because, unlike the afore-mentioned British theologies, it came into direct competition with Calvinism in Switzerland and across continental Europe, leading to an emphasis on the differences.

message: I'm not clear what the purpose of this template is. The main 4 links do not have separate pages (and in my view do not need separate pages). The publications are not likely to be of mainstream interest and there is some controversy(!) over whether "Software patents under the PCT" ought to exist - a template of this type ought to include only the high level items; if "software patents" are such an item, why not "business methods" or "methods for treatment"?

Template talk:ConstellationsChangedByBayer

message: Bayer did not introduce Crux as a constellation. What he did was depict Crux as an asterism in Centaurus. I'll be back with more information, but Johann Bayer was very conservative and presented an essentially unchanged celestial globe. The first great constellation inventor in the modern times of astronomy was Petrus Plancius. Rursus 22:08, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed.  Crux is shown outlined on Centaurus (as reported on the globe by Plancius), but the table for Centaurus makes no mention of it.  The stars of the cross (Bayer's ε, ζ, ν, ξ, and f Cen.) are described as being in the feet or the ankles of the Centaur.  Leo makes no mention of Coma at all, either on the plate or in the table.  The stars of Coma are illustrated as a sheaf of wheat on the plate for Boötes (presumably just cut by him with his scythe), but the table makes no mention of it.  The only one of these claims clearly borne out is that various stars in the plate and table for Piscis Austrinus are noted as belonging to other constellations, including Grus (a new constellation introduced by the Dutch in 1597/98).  But this was not a case of Bayer dividing the constellation up; rather, he was reporting the arrangement of Plancius / Keyser / De Houtman. -- Elphion (talk) 18:13, 21 August 2021 (UTC)

message: Hi Folks,
Can someone clarify the definition of "harbour" and "port" used in this article? I just came back from Mopti. I can live with the notion of harbour if one considers the little enclave in the river as one. But I definitely didn't see any infrastructure which would justify the use of the term "port".
::I suppose it depends on how you define port and harbour.  I understand a harbour to be someplace boats moor which is protected or sheltered from the remaining waterway, and a port to be someplace cargo is loaded and unloaded from vessels.  So I would argue that that Mopti is certainly a port and possibly a harbour (I can't remember seeing any breakwaters there which enclose an area from the river).

Reverted back to: The outermost clothes are called the shell layer in case they block wind and/or water.
Perhaps the text needs to be more clear that the outermost layer may not be a shell layer. Consider a sweater over a t-shirt. The sweater is not a shell layer garment because it doesn't block wind or rain. Sweater isn't a reasonable "shell" against anything. The second sentence of the paragraph attempts to make that point.

thread_title:  Outermost layer may not be shell layer 

message: Edit on 08:09,9 March 2007 by 81.102.64.101 claims that the term "active layer" means the inner layer. Based on some googling there doesn't seem to exist a good consensus on this term. For instance:
* DuPont has a trademark "DuPont Active Layer", with definition: "A 20 micron, soft, very breathable, waterproof, windproof and stretchable monolithic polyester film, intended for lamination to a support fabric." Clearly that's intended for the shell layer.
* https://www.secured-url.co.uk/adventurepeaks/acatalog/Mid_Layer_Clothing.html describes a jacket as following: "Women's wind resistant hooded full zip active layer. The jacket excels for year round mountain walking, with fully protective features and a balance of windproofing, warmth and breathability in a women's fit."
If there are no objections, I'll remove or rephrase the active layer mention.
