Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/Skysmith's list of missing articles/Architecture and Engineering

message: I saw your post on the architecture discussion page. You know, a good place to start looking for glaring omissions in the world of architecture, I think, is at the National Register of Historical Places WikiProject. I come across a lot of missing architectural topics in my work on Registered Historic Places in Illinois. That's how I came to start most of the articles in :Category:Barns as well as French Colonial. I have noticed there is no article for a Jerkinhead roof aka Jerkin roof. Those lists are a good a place to start and can be found on the NRHP project main page, down the page a bit.A mcmurray 15:00, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Saw your post

message: Skysmith, puzzled.  After working to resolve some of the missing architects on your list, I see that many slightly-wrong entries have been re-instated by your last update.  I'm guessing there's some sort of semi-automated process at work here.  For instance, there is no significant Boris Lofan, but I resolved that to Boris Iofan, and your latest update has made the nonexistent Mr. Lofan reappear.  Same with Irving Gill vs. Irving J. Gill, etc.  Just as a suggestion you may want to look at that architect list for accuracy.  Cheers.  --Lockley (talk) 07:57, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Besides the fact that there are no references, I believe that the main problem is all abstraction, no specifics. Abstract means that you pluck an idea out from the specifics, so that presents a certain problem for us here. No specifics. We have to guess what all these abstracts might mean, when a couple of instances would allow us too the priviledge of abstraction.

Talk:Suspension keel

message: Hi. This was added to the main page, unreferenced. I have removed it to this page as most of it is anecdotal, and the way in which it has been written does not make it clear exactly what is happening. How does changing where the suspension is mounted affect the performance in dirty air? Also, the Toyota TF105 was a single-keel car, while the TF105B was a zero-keel suspension geometry but retaining the now redundant keel. While the MP4/20 was completely keel-free, as was the TF106. In which case, what is the point about the 105B trying to say? And as far as I recall JV's off was the result of trying to brake hard on the marbles, and his lack of grip was more to do with that than anything else?
Another note of interest on the zero-keel design is how zero-keel cars react in dirty air (coming up behind another car, specifically in a attempt to overtake).  Zero-keel cars would suffer massive understeer in these conditions, requiring the driver to go off the racing line to avoid the understeer, or use heavy breaking just to turn the car.  Examples of this is in the 2005 British Grand Prix at Silverstone where Kimi Raikkonen in his zero-keel McLaren MP4/20 was suffering understeer when getting in the dirty air of the F2005 Ferrari cars, thus not being able to over take in a track that has a reputation of an overtaking friendly track.  Another example in the 2005 season is Toyota introducing the TF105B for the later part of the season.  At the time, Toyota Technical Director Mike Gascoyne copied the suspension mountings of the McLaren MP4/20.  Toyota driver Jarno Trulli then complained about how the car didn't suit his driving style and how he was suffering major understeer while attempting to overtake others.  It should be taken under consideration though that since the TF105B still had a single keel (using the suspension mounting stylings of the MP4/20), the understeering could be a result of the suspension mounting itself.
A final example would be the 2006 Canadian Grand Prix.  Ralf Schumacher was having trouble driving his Toyota TF106, complaining of poor grip with Jacques Villeneuve in his BMW Sauber F1.06 catching up.  In one of the corners, Ralf nearly came to a complete stop and Jacques tried to pass Ralf by going on the outside, however Jacques' zero-keel BMW Sauber suffered massive understeer while in Ralf Schumacher's dirty air and ended up hitting the wall, taking him out of the race.
Some comment and discussion on here would be good, or better still a decent reference for this behaviour. If you want to reinclude some of the points here, could you condense them and keep them encyclopedic. Cheers! Pyrope 12:10, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Henry Alford

message: I have owned Alford's Greek Testament since around 1968, the 4 volume Moody Press edition. For figuring out what a verse means in the NT, I know of nothing better. Alf succinctly sets out the possibilities. This was written in an age where educated Englishmen knew Greek since their youth, trained in Greek, Latin, & the Classics. The Greek text is at the top of the page. Immediately below is a textual apparatus. Alf edited his own Gk testament. Below that in 2 columns are commentary including a running translation. 
He has introductions to the books, which I think are still valuable. Overall, I rate Alf superior to its successor set, the Expositor's Greek Testament. 
Alf is premil & Arminian; he thinks u could lose your salvation. But he doesn't seem to know about pre-tribulationism. 
DRAWBACKS: 
1) Alf assumes you are a scholar & a gentleman & know Latin. So he may give a comment like this: "The medieval monk, Euthymus Zig. precisely explains this verse:" Then Alf just like quotes the Latin & moves on. Oh that someone would reissue this book with the Latin put into English. 
2) The textual apparatus of course doesn't have the 20th century discovered papyri. 
3) I don't find all the symbols in the textual apparatus comprehensible or having the same meaning as in, for example, the United Bible Society's maroon NT. 
AN ENGLISH EDITION EXISTS 
There is an English edition of this work in existence (no Greek text at the top of the page; I think it has KJV & English RV at the top). But I am not sure that this English ed translates all the Latin comments of the Greek edition. 
I wish someone would revise this work; someone who really knows Greek. When I really want to know what a verse or Greek phrase means in the NT, my best bet is till to reach for Alf & ask, "What's it all about, Alfy?"

Template talk:Novel year

message: While removing some articles from "Year books" to more specific categories, I noticed that the "Year novels" categories are both under "Year books" and "Year fiction books" (the same appears to be true for the "Year short story collections"). The fiction books is not marked as a non-diffusing category, so I've come here to ask if the categorization should remain as it is now (and marking "Year fiction books" with the proper "non-diffusing" template) or if we should remove "Year novels" from "Year books". Courtesy ping to , who initially made the change in the template. Isabelle 🔔 13:02, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I never changed the parent cat on this template (and on "Year short story collections") partly due to not wanting to make too bold of an edit without a discussion like this, and partly due to the fluidity of "fiction" and "novel". But a novel is generally understood to be a work of (and subcategory of) fiction, so I would support removing "Year novels" from "Year books" once and for all. Thanks for the ping! Οἶδα (talk) 21:18, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text:  I agree with you that novels are understood to be works of fiction (as our article on the subject states), so I went ahead and made the necessary changes to move "Year novels" to "Year fiction books" exclusively.
