Talk:Justin Stewart

message: Where was Justin shown in Countdown to Destruction? NEVER. his last appearance was in True Blue To The Rescue.
It even says it in the article 
Justin has made one final appearance in Power Rangers: In Space, where he teamed up with his old teammates to save Lightning Cruiser and Storm Blaster.
His last appearance was saving Storm Blaster and Lightning Cruiser. 
please have it noted that justin is still a the blue turbo ranger and that there might be a possabilitty that the lLightning Cruiser might be
powering up his morpher that might be the reason that TJ could morph into the red turbo in forever red becouse storm blaster is powering up his morpher
The story about Justin loosing his youngest Ranger record ist wrong:
Noone should forget about one thing: Android Justin on Power Rangers Turbo episode "The Robot Rangers" wasn't even two years old and was able to morph. He was built by Zordon & Alpaha 5 on Eltar to fight the Evil. He and four other Robot Rangers were sent to earth to use the Turbo Powers of their similar looking human Rangers. So Anroid/Human Justin still holds the record for beeing the youngest Power Ranger ever, 'cause he was a Ranger and there's no doubt about it. It was no regular character that's right but it was Justin, he could morph (so he was a Ranger), was just created and tested and not even 2 years old. Whatever people like the character or not, he never lost the record - neither the actor Blake Foster, nor the story character Justin.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.73.240.62 (talk) 23:18, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Number of elements in J(x) 

message: I am quite sure that in the last example the operator A=\Delta (Laplacian) rather has to be considered on the Hilbert space of square integrable functions L^2\left(\Omega;\mathbf{R}\right) in stead of the Sobolev space H_0^2\left(\Omega;\mathbf{R}\right). The domain D\left(A\right) could either be chosen as D\left(A\right)=H^2\left(\Omega;\mathbf{R}\right) \cap H_0^1\left(\Omega;\mathbf{R}\right) or as some suitable subspace of this (e.g. compactly supported smooth functions).
Hence I want to suggest to modify this example in one of the following two ways:
* Consider H=L^2\left(\Omega;\mathbf{R}\right) for an open and connected domain \Omega\subset\mathbf{R}^n and let A=\Delta, the Laplace operator, defined on the dense subspace  D\left(A\right) of compactly supported smooth functions on \Omega. Then, using integration by parts,
::\langle u, \Delta u \rangle = \int_\Omega u(x) \Delta u(x) \, \mathrm{d} x = - \int_\Omega \big| \nabla u(x) \big|^{2} \, \mathrm{d} x = - \| \nabla u \|_{L^{2} (\Omega; \mathbf{R})} \leq 0,
: so the Laplacian is a dissipative operator.
or

Template talk:Discrimination

message: Articles like Anti-Austrian sentiment have not been on the list for more than a year. I was the one to remove some of them, and I checked each and every one before removing it. I could not find serious instances of discrimination in any of them. Opposition to the politics of a government is something very different from discrimination. I think we should stick to real discrimination like racism, antisemitism, homophobia, religious persecution, and similar crimes. Rsk6400 (talk) 16:51, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Change "Manifestations" to "Practices" in the top table: Part of a series on Discrimination.

I think it would help improve clarity of complex concepts to the average reader. 
I would also like the editors to consider changing the order of the list. Policies should immediately precede Practices. This would flow more logically into the next section, Countermeasures.

Template talk:Michael John LaChiusa

message: At present, this template has more redlinks than blue. I propose that all redlinks be deleted. Since this is a navigation template, it seems to me that it is useless to have a navigation to a non-existent article. See the section on "Navigation templates provide navigation between existing articles", especially: "Red links should be avoided unless they are very likely to be developed into articles, and even if they do, editors are encouraged to write the article first." (WP:NAV) I cannot predict when, if ever, articles on the redlinks will be written. 
I further propose that the title of the template be changed to "Michael John LaChiusa Work" or a variation on the word "work", because the works are 1) theatrical musicals; 2) operas 3)song cycles 4)other songs/work for which I have no name.  JeanColumbia (talk) 18:53, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Just to be clear, are you suggesting that the redlinked works be removed outright, or that the links themselves be removed but the titles of the works be left intact? As for your second proposal, I have no objection to a more inclusive and accurate title for the template. —MearsMan talk 19:31, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: To be clear: remove the redlinks, title and all. In other words, no title, no red-wiki-link. We do not lose the titles, they are all at the LaChiusa article. However, an alternate to my proposal is to delete the wikilink but leave the title. That, however, would not be useful, since this is, after all, a navigation template; without the wikilink there is nothing to navigate to! JeanColumbia (talk) 19:53, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, I thought that was your intention but I wanted to make sure. My biggest concern was that we not lose any valuable information in the process (just because they don't presently have articles doesn't mean they aren't notable, after all), but as you pointed out all the redlinked works are mentioned in the article on LaChiusa, along with many others. If/when articles are created on these works they can be added back to the template, so I see no harm in removing them. —MearsMan talk 20:12, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Template talk:Kurt Weill

message: If you want the box "as narrow as possible", then the way to do that is by setting the box width in the CSS properties, not by adding random linebreaks in the middle of titles. I set it at 20em but feel free to decrease that if you want.
Mahagonny-Songspiel isn't an opera, but neither is Johnny Johnson. Anyway, what's the point of such an arbitrary criterion? Isn't the point of this box to make navigation easier to articles about Weill's staged works?—Chowbok ☠ 23:07, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Right I have now reduced the width again. The point of the box is to list Weill's operas and musicals - that's what it says at the top of the box. If the Songspiel is not an opera or a musical it obviously shouldn't be there. BTW serial reversion doesn't facilitate this kind of discussion - it was unnecessary anyway because I had already left a message on your talk page. Hmm. -- Kleinzach (talk) 23:28, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: You can check the time of my message. I've checked Hinton in Grove and he does list M-Songspiel as a staged work, so although it's marginal there's no great harm in it being in the list.
