Talk:Noggin the Nog

message: :every episode began with the words, "Listen to me and I will tell you the story of Noggin the Nog, as it was told in the days of old..."
Really? I thought the incantation was "In the Lands of the North, where the black rocks stand guard against the cold sea, in the dark night that is very long, the men of the Northlands sit by their great log fires and they tell a tale...". Marnanel 04:19, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)

thread_title: Introductory text

message: I'll argue some points here in case anyone else has a strong opinion (and because I don't have time to edit just now):
* Graculous certainly does not arrive "randomly" and in any case that hardly seems NPOV.
* Can anyone tell me the episode where Noggin and Nogbad play chess?  I believe that this is one of the books, not the TV series.
* While we're at it the books are not mentioned.

Talk:10BASE2

message: I made a change which I thought made it more readable, but was reverted.  The original, and now reverted text, says: and the 2 supposedly refers to the maximum segment length of 200 meters, though in practical use it can only run up to 185 meters. (The IEEE rounded 185 up to 200 to come up with the name 10BASE2, for consistency with the general standard).   The maximum segment length in the standard is 185m. It will work on longer runs with better cable, and shorter with lower quality cable, but the number is 185m. They could have named it 10BASE1.85, but decided to round it to 10BASE2.  (I prefer lower case, as in 10base2, the IEEE seems to disagree, but that is a different question.)  The 2 comes from rounding 1.85 up, the standard never says that it is 200m, or that in practical use it can only run 185m.  The current text seems a complicated way to say that it is rounded, while implying something that the standard does not say. Can we do better?  Gah4 (talk) 03:49, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps a simple "and the 2 refers to the rounded up maximum segment length of 185 m"? You're right that the text is inacurate as it says 10BASE2 is supposed to support 200 m but doesn't in practical use. --Zac67 (talk) 09:33, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Present Tense 

message: There is currently edits, and edit summaries, about RG59 and other 75 ohm cables. The National Semiconductor Application Note AN-620 for the 8392 transceiver chip on how to do it. Because collision detect depends on measuring voltage based on a current source, that has to be adjusted for other impedance cables. The UN allows for 75 and 93 ohm cable. It might be possible to modify transceivers, following the UN. I know some have used 75 ohm cable with 50 ohm terminators. For two stations near the end, that might work. There will be a reflection, but maybe not too much. But really, if you want to do it, modify the collision detection. Gah4 (talk) 02:55, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

message: Looking at the article right now, it seems quite POV against effeminacy; I'm probably going to take a crack at revising it towards a more NPOV ideal.  For one thing, there are many who view effeminacy as attractive.  There's also the issue of including the current context with regards to gender issues, identity, roles, and transgenderism. - Korpios 16:49, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually... seeing as how effeminate is a redirect to gender role, the bulk of this article would actually make an interesting move/addition to prescriptions regarding gender roles, fleshing it out to more of a full-length article rather than a stub.  It can then also redirect to gender role.  - Korpios 16:55, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)

thread_title: Contradiction for origin of name

message: Although the pronunciation a-dras'-tee-a is common in astronomical web sites, some agree with the Dictionary of Classical Mythology (JE Zimmerman, Harper & Row, 1964) and the Columbia Encyclopedia in having a'-dras-tee'-a. The difference depends on whether you look to the Latin or to the Greek: most names from the Greek classics have been filtered through Latin, and the accent has often shifted. Astronomical bodies that we've known of longer, such as the Galilean satellites, have a Latinate pronunciation, whereas there's often dispute with more recent names. 
Since the Greek penult is heavy, the literary English (Latinate) pronunciation has penultimate stress. The Greek spelling is included for those of you who'd prefer that instead. --kwami 02:13, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Visayan Tarictic Hornbill

message: Is this article about the Tarictic Hornbill, P. panini, or the Mindanao Hornbill, P. affinis?. Are the races listed actually races, or should they be shown as other species in the genus Penelopides?
Bird articles should be capitalised (Wikipedia convention), and I've added a taxobox and author.
: Hi,  well it was meant to be Mindanao hornbill (P. affinis). But I posted the wrong image. Your edition was very nice but quite premature though since I got the notice about the error from Callan Bentley just today. I will correct it by re-editing it to p. affinis, moving the image to a separate article about p. panini. I already got a fresh image of p. affinis from Noah Jackson who is currently in the island of Panay, Philippines doing research and preservation work on the birds. I will be uploading the image soon. 
Regarding the race and genus, I am not an expert on this. Perhaps Noah can help us clarify this matter.

replies: text: Galileo never imaged Elara, as it's one of Jupiter's small irregular outer moons. Also, because of its small size, it is most likely not round. I've seen images like that listed as images of the outer Jovian moons before on some random websites, but I have no clue why or how that started.

Talk:Orthosie (moon)

message: Since final -ia, -ie, and -ee in Greek loans are all traditionally pronounced [ee-uh] in English, this moon should probably be pronounced the same as Orthosia, [or-THO-see-uh]. However, I received the following email from someone at JPL who signed only as "Ellis": 
"Pronunciation of the moon names is an iffy thing at best.  We still don't have universal agreement on the pronunciation of the Galilean satellite names.  I can make an educated guess, but that is all it is:
  Euporie (you-POOR-ee)
   Orthosie (ore-THO-see)
  Pasithee (PASS-i-thee)"
: Seeing as "pronunciation of the moon names is an iffy thing at best", why aren't the moon names using broad transcription, like the rest of WP? I don't think you can expect laymen to understand the distinction between [i] and [ɨ] which is phonetic, not phonemic for many speakers of English and should not be used inside of slashes.  The same goes for [ɵ] and possibly others used in other moon names. -Craig Pemberton (talk) 14:53, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

:From my French Canadian point of view, it'd rather be KIV-ee-ook.
:Urhixidur 18:46, 2004 Aug 13 (UTC)
Heard back from Michael Kusugak, who proposed the name. NASA had given the pronunciation as "kee-VYOOK" in a press release, with the accent messed up (which happens surprisingly often). Michael said, 
"You are right about the accents. Kiviuq is pronounced Ki' vi uq (kee' vee oq, the q is gutteral, pronounced in the back of the tongue)." 
I'd imagine that for many English speakers, "KIV ee oke" might be an easier pronunciation. As for the [o] for 'u', Inuit has only three vowels, long & short 'a', 'i', 'u', generally pronounced more or less as their IPA values. However, "gutteral" (uvular) consonants like 'q' and 'r' strongly affect any adjacent vowels, making i and u closer to IPA [e] and [o]. --kwami 05:55, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)

The chapter is entitled, THE BEGINNING OF THE KIVIUQ LEGENDS. When one of the moons of Saturn was named Paaliaq, I was very surprised and honoured because Paaliaq is my own creation.
