message: Firstly I'm sorry if this isn't standard format for writing on discussion pages, I'm still a fairly new user so I'm not too sure about how to go about some aspects of editing.
All I really did to the article was reword it so that it wasn't in as many sections. I'm not aware of many of the facts of this case, so I didn't add any new information - it still needs work to make it better, but hopefully what I've done might be something of a start. Please feel free to revert it all if it isn't an improvement. If anyone reads this soon, then have a nice summer ^_^

thread_title: Contradiction with [[French Gendarmerie]]

message: I think it must be explained what the terms section, group and team mean in the article. When it says that a Lieutenant is "in command of a section (infantry)" is that the same as a section in the US/UK army? When it says that a sergent is "in command of a group", what is this group how many men? Likewise there should be a definition of a team, so that readers can understand the difference between a caporal and say a British corporal.

Talk:Transpirational pull

message: I have tried to read the article several times and I must say I do not understand at all. How can evaporation drive the water transport. This must be explaioned in the article.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.251.156.87 (talk) 18:07, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: [Untitled]

message: I am not a specialist on this area but I have been trying to make sense by reading this page and the linked pages. I realy had trouble understanding the principle of operation of transpirational pull because of two wrong words used in the following paragraph. I capitalized these words and I believe they must be replaced by the parenthesised words. This way, what this article and the related ones claim makes sense.
"A common misconception is that water moves in PLANTS(XYLEM) by capillary action, the movement of water along a small-diameter conduit (such as a capillary) as a result of surface tension in the meniscus at the leading surface of the moving water. Surface tension does play a critical role in water movement in PLANTS(XYLEM), as described above, but the relevant surface occurs at the site of evaporation within leaves, not within the xylem conduits, and that surface does not typically proceed along any conduit. Water movement within the xylem conduits is driven by a pressure gradient, not by capillary action."
:Good point. I fixed it.--Curtis Clark 05:23, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  A small correction 

message: Since the obvious 
"A common misconception is that water moves in xylem by capillary action" 
has been highlighted above, below there is what seems so be contradictory statement
"This attractive force between molecules allows plants to draw water from the root (via osmosis) and then through the xylem (via capillary action)"
Saying that water moves through the xylem via capillary action is both true and a misconception. Which is correct?

message: Was his middle name really "Adolph" rather than "Adolf"? That's a bit surprising.

replies: text: Is it a common variation in Germany? At one time "Adolph" was a reasonably common English name, but I was unaware it was ever a German name. Mostly I just want to make sure his name isn't being translated; I really hate it when people translate names (as opposed to merely transliterating them when their original language doesn't use the Latin alphabet). I'd have to agree that the evidence in this case, what there is of it, is that "Adolph" was the name he used. --Trovatore 18:31, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: 'Adolph' might actually be an English name (or the English version of German 'Adolf', or so). However, this doens't bar anybody from christening a non-English person 'Adolph'. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf lists some German Adolphs. Ncik 01:07, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Middle name

message: My rule of thumb for mathematician bios is that the main article should be under the form of their name under which they most often published; the fuller form of their name can appear in the article (compare Steve Jackson (mathematician). According to that rule, if others agree with it (can't find anything directly on-point in the style manual), this article should be moved back to Hans Rademacher, though Hans Adolph might still appear in the article text. If "Adolph" was introduced in order to distinguish him from Hans-Bert Rademacher, then maybe someone should write at least a stub on the latter. --Trovatore 19:18, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Merry Christmas

message: The assumption that someone typing 'Merry Christmas' into a search window is looking for info about the holiday instead of the greeting itself is absurd. Why on earth would we REDIR to Christmas when we have  a mature page with 680 words devoted entirely to the subject  for which they actually searched? 
If we send them to what they asked for and they REALLY want Christmas, it is the second link in the article's lead. On the other hand, getting from Christmas to what they actually asked for is a tortuous word search puzzle. The link to Merry Christmas is buried 6,773 words down in an article over eight thousand words long. Better yet, it's tucked into the middle of a section called Reformation into the 19th century. Yeah, that's intuitive. 
Can someone please point me to the WP:CON that led to this? If, on the other hand, no consensus was built for this, I suggest we change the REDIR. If people object, then the WP:CON discussion can happen. Kevin/Last1in (talk) 22:15, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Lord Blackthorn

message: I removed this from the article for now:
When the Avatar comes to Serpent Isle in search of Batlin, Blackthorn even assists the Avatar in his quest, albeit without revealing his true identity. 
(The theory that Blackthorn stayed with the monks is merely speculation by a select group of fans. There is nothing in the game connecting the monk to Blackthorn, and it actually contradicts Ultima IX: Ascension)
Yeah, in the light of the article, I suspected it was the salt tide monk guy who refuses to tell his name, but it would be odd if the Avatar didn't recognise him. Oh well, I hope the rewording is slightly better.
Anyway, I didn't read the books in SI that well; did any of them really say that Blackthorn did stay with the Xenkans - is at least that an established fact? --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 20:45, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
