Talk:Fish (cryptography)

message: Paul Gannon   is clear that the name was given by the Bletchley Park cryptanalysts to the links in the German Non-Morse wirelesss networks. Later, as a shorthand, Tunny was used for the Lorenz SZ40/42 and Sturgeon for the Siemens and Halske T52 machine. TedColes (talk) 13:46, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Fish wireless links

message: I wonder if the low value of Sturgeon was because it mostly or always used landlines which for England must have been hard to tap into. Since Sweden had those cables running through it's own country criss crossing to both Norway and Finland from Germany there must have been better material available, especially since Sweden's problem was more of a Diplomatic nature as she wasn't in the war and attempted to remain in that state.
Sweden for instance got the readiness reports of forces in norway to the last bomb as well as well as advanced warning of Operation Barbarossa including the Date.
Since it was deemed of little use is there a case given for this somewhere, i suspect it was for the above reasons.

message: I added Max Newman to this list as he and his department (the Newmanry) made a very major contribution to breaking Fish messages with the Robinsons and Colossi. However, this addition has been reversed by 92.8.21.232 why? TedColes (talk) 13:22, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The recent edit of the heading of this section produces an ambiguity, as the list might be thought to cover all senior staff at Bletchley Park.

This list is mostly LA, but there are all the Minneapolis, DC, NYC bands, and then there are those from the non-major centers, then there is the UK, and then there is the question of what the point of this list is hanging off in space like that.

message: Why do we even need this page at all, when a category would fulfill the purpose far easier, without all the cleanup and editing that is required to maintain this page? --Dogbreathcanada 19:57, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree.  I came across this page because it was linked to the page The Minutemen (band), with the intention of removing them from list list as they were most definitely not a hardcore act.  Many, many of the bands on this list are not hardcore punk bands either. Glowimperial 23:41, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

text: Category:Hardcore punk groups pretty much duplicates this list, and where it doesn't, a category tag in the band's article will fix the problem.  Check it out. Every band on this list now has an article, so there's no further need for a manually maintained list.  I put a "see also" link at the top of the article.  If your favorite bands are in the list but not the category, please fix the band's article by adding the missing category tags. Then we can get the database to do the work for us.  Thanks. --John Nagle 17:36, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Regarding the running times in the info box "Length Disc 1: 1:20:27 Disc 2: 2:02:47"...as written, looks like the times for the two disc set, disc one and disc two. 
I haven't done the math, but I know that discs don't hold two hours worth of music, so I'm assuming that it is the one disc edition and the two disc edition. Therefore, to alleviate confusion, I recommend rewriting it as

message: Please remove the    from the beginning of this message.
Rationale:
* The spaces cause the message to be misaligned with other "subtitle" messages. You can see an example of that at User:Amalthea/rd1, where "(Redirected from User:Amalthea/rd1)" looks indented compared to "Redirect page" and subpage breadcrumbs.
* The spaces make it more difficult to make software changes to improve how the "subtitle" messages look, see the discussion about aligning messages in T306675 and T307715.
* The spaces were added in 2008 with the explanation that "Message conflicts with subpage message", unfortunately the screenshot linked there is no longer available, and the author @CBM themself is inactive since 2018. There doesn't seem to be any conflict now, as far as I can see.

Talk:Haliotis

message: As usual for this situation, I moved the one-genus family to the genus name, but not to "abalone" because it refers to several different creatures. It would be good to include a list of "best-known" species at least. Stan 20:35, 18 Apr 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks Stan. I appreciate your improvements. The list of Haliotis species is coming. I'm in the process of checking and checking again the facts, since many authors differ on some names. JoJan 07:37, 19 Apr 2004 (UTC)

text: As far as I can see, in the abalone article the author writes about 'various SPECIES' and not 'GENERA'. In Haliotidae and Haliotis, articles I wrote, I only speak of ONE genus Haliotis. I don't think that there is any contradiction. But you are right in this respect : there is contradiction in the literature about the number of species. Some treat some species as subspecies, others don't. Anyway, thanks for your attention. JoJan 20:03, 10 May 2004 (UTC)

Talk:HMS Newcastle (D87)

message: Dear Sphilbrick,
I hope you are keeping well? You may remember our earlier exchange in August 2020. I am contacting you once again in your capacity as a member of the OTRS Team, after correcting two entries in the present article, where the table listing the  commanding officers was in error, as it was missing Commander (now Captain, retired) Hugh Daglish, who commanded HMS Newcastle in 1989-1991. Captain Daglish is a personal friend of mine and therefore pointed out the error to me over the last few days. Unfortunately, he was unable to provide me with online evidence to use as a secondary source to justify the corrections, but has instead provided me with the following PDFs: 1) a photocopy of his certificate of command, confirming his tenure from 12 August 1989 to 30 July 1991, and 2) a photocopy of his short biography, as an information sheet prepared by the Royal Navy for distribution to members of the public who visited the ship. Captain Daglish also pointed out that his successor, Commander David Harburn, served from 1991 to 1993. Please could you provide me with an e-mail address at which I will send you these two documents, to help you decide whether or not my edits are deemed acceptable, per WP:COISELF?

For the last decade it is properly called ARVC (arrythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy) since it has been classified by who in cardiomyopathies in 1994.

Yes, this is the Louis XIV cypher. It was invented/developed by one or more of the Rossignols and, after it went out of use, was unbroken until Bazieres managed. Still didn't answer the question about who the guy inthe Iron Mask was though.
As for Commandant, well... I think so, as I seem to recall he had some sort of military rank, but this may have been honorary or reserve or something. Beyond that...  ?

The only source for this statement is a light newspaper article from the 1980's. Dusty white exterior on cheeses is typically from beneficial molds, such as various forms of Geotrichum candidum and Penicillium camemberti - either intentionally added to the cheese during processing, or acquired naturally from the environment during aging.
