Talk:HMM-268

message: Squadron Insignia
"HMM-268's unit insignia was designed by Captain John L. Tuck and Corporal Jean Montes. The background of half blue and half black signifies the squadron's day and night capabilities. The Red Dragon is a legendary monster conceived to possess both protective and terror inspiring qualities and has been used as a military emblem since ancient times. The dragon represents the medical evacuation and logistic support missions of the squadron as well its offensive troop assault and reconnaissance insert missions. The dragon is clutching a pearl in its right hand signifying its striving for perfection. His alert posture symbolizes HMM-268's readiness to perform all missions assigned."
the above is from the HMM-268 WestPac 1982 cruise book
The first HMM-268 Red Dragon patches were made in Okinawa in the summer of 1980, with all of the stitching done on a light blue backing cloth.
I can provide a scanned image of the original patch, which quite frankly, looks a helluva lot better than that horribly devolved dragon on the current patch (is it even gripping a pearl? And all the detail is gone!)
Corporal Jean Montes was not credited in the book, and was a personal addition. I have first hand knowledge of his participation in the drawing of the dragon, which was later stylized by Captain Tuck; and I can actually provide an early rendering of said dragon, which actually appears in the squadron's 1980 "cruise book."
Also - only as a note to you, the editor - that the reformation of the squadron meant that nearly every other squadron provided men to the effort. Squadrons do not regularly give up their best personnel. HMM-268 was soon populated with the air wing's "problem children." Some had attitude problems, others had alcohol problems, while still others had drug abuse problems. Now, this being the spring of 1979, LSD tabs with a red dragon printed on them were popular. The suggestion - and ultimately the adoption - of the Red Dragon being the squadron's symbol is more than mere coincidence.

Talk:Congius

message: "It was equal to the larger chous" seems a little odd. Three is not equal to the larger four, nor a pint equal to the larger liter. TheGrappler 07:07, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It may make sense. My understanding is that there were two chouses: a smaller and a larger one, the latter equal to the congius. But I agree, it should be made clear somewhere, preferably in an article about the chous. Kpalion 08:25, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, there was a smaller Chian chous and a larger Athenian one; there were about 8 Chian choes to 7 Athenian choes. I don't know whether the Athenian one is equal to the congius or not, though. --Delirium 11:32, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: The article says the congius is roughly equivalent to 2.5 liters. However, the article Ancient Roman units of measurement says the congius is equal to ca. 3.25 liters. Perhaps the pints used in the reference were not US pints but Imperial pints? 6 Imperial pints = 3.41 l; 6 US pints = 2.84 l. Kpalion 08:55, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Cite Before Blocking

message: In my case the inability of Admins to cite a policy violation caused a case to ultimately go before ArbCom where the ArbCom was unable to find a violation of policy that justified the original Administrative action.  Unfortunately a small handful of editors failed in this regard.
Pervasive blocks by Admin who failed to cite a violation 
RfAr case where the original violation was never found to have existed 
Unfortunately in this case, while trying to demonstrate that the policy violation did not exist the offending Admins repeatedly blocked me, refused to demonstrate a policy violation, and worked to convince others that a violation occurred.
They even created new false violation accusations and failed to substantiate them as well.  Their actions resulted in a disruption on Wikipedia.  If this guideline were in place and followed, then an improper action could have been easily remedied.  Instead ArbCom laid the blame of disruption on me instead of with the true cause.

Talk:VMFA-214

message: I think there is some question about Boyington's 6 kills as part of the flying tigers.  I think it is officially 4.5 because they devide the total kills among all the pilots at the battle, but Boyington insists that this is unfair because two planes flew top cover and never engaged so he calculates his kills as 5.5 and rounds up to 6.
Boyington has officially been creditted with 3 1/2 victories in China according to AVG records.  This has been laid out pretty well in the book by Bruce Gamble, "The Black Sheep: The definitive account of Marine Fighting Squadron 214 in World War II".  The six AVG victories can best be described as Boyington's personal fantasy.
:Wukovits' Black Sheep also debunks Boyington's claim of six kills with AVG. Since the Boyington article also uses the lower numbers, I am changing this article to be less specific about the number of kills, leaving the discussion to his own article. --137.200.1.106 (talk) 20:12, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Boyington's kills

message: Is it really appropriate to call VMA-214 a fighter squadron in the first sentence? There isn't an "F" in the squadron name, nor in their current aircraft (AV-8B, which possesses sub-par fighter capabilities). They were certainly a fighter squadron in World War II, flying fighter sorties as well as flying fighter aircraft and even being titled a Fighter Squadron, but today they are an attack squadron. If no one objects, I'm going to change it to read "... is a United States Marine Corps attack squadron consisting..." to be more accurate and more in line with other Marine Attack Squadrons.

Talk:Off-roading

message: The article uses both words, and it needs the input from a subject-matter expert to rule on when which term is needed. For example, the "Competitive trials" heading has a subheading "RTV trailing" and a subheading "CCV trialing." The first sentence of the "RTV trailing" section is "RTV (Road Taxed Vehicle) trialing is the most common form of trailing." Eribosot (talk) 09:37, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Trialing or trailing? 

message: This is just a temporary message before I get to work on this page. There is A LOT of confusing use-cases for grammar, comparisons, and terms that I am unfond of. That Trophy Truck thing I wrote was mostly a big shift of some core concepts applied to that section, which probably did not belong there, anyway. I do intend to edit the Trophy Truck as well, because it is a garden of misinformation that I assume was fed to the (understandably) gullible editors of that page by (not as understandably) untrustworthy, yet popular media outlets. With the Trophy Truck page edited and this one, everything will line up much better. I am also contemplating making some Wikipedia articles dedicated to specific types of auto suspension, as that topic is severely lacking on this website. Even more specific to what I am currently ranting about: Somebody even asked for an explanation of bypass-shocks on the Talk section of the Trophy Truck article, which of course, was a wish not granted. This is, of course, not a very importanr message, because it will be irrelevant very soon, but I wanted to post it as some sort of way to save myself from being murked for making unusual edits that don't link up correctly yet. Putting a hyper-link with text that reads "Trick Truck", yet leads to an article named "Trophy Truck" is probably an easy way to get a "troll" stamped on your forehead.

replies: text: I can sort-of see why the article may have been nommed for deletion.  Half of the article is more about the type of manga production developed there, which has little to do with the place ITSELF.  In other words, the same info could be found in other articles, perhaps even the main manga article itself, and it would be more relevant there.  Now, is this place, say, actually designated as a historical landmark?  Is it still standing?  It sounds like not - what's there now, and is there any sort of memorial?  In other words, there's a potential for a good article here, but its a bit borderline as it stands.  I wouldn't nom it for deletion myself, but I probably wouldn't vote to keep it either.

Talk:Basil Valentine

message: There seems to be a link between Valentinus & Shakespeare's character Friar Lawrence in Romeo & Juliet. Compare these two extracts:
Valentinus:
All herbs, trees, and roots, an all metals and minerals, receive their growth and nutriment from the spirit of the earth, which is the spirit of life. This spirit is itself fed by the stars, and is thereby rendered capable of imparting nutriment to all things that grow and of nursing them as a mother does her child while it is yet in her womb. The minerals are hidden in the womb of the earth and nourished by her with the spirit that she receives from above
''
Friar Lawrence:
Now, ere the sun advance his burning eye/The day to cheer, and night's dank dew to dry,/I must upfill this osier cage of ours/With baleful weeds and precious-juiced flowers./The earth that's nature's mother is her tomb:/What is her burying grave, that is her womb;/And from her womb children of divers kind/We sucking on her natural bosom find./Many for many virtues excellent,/None but for some, and yet all different./O'mickle is the powerful grace that lies/In plants, herbs, stones, and their true qualities./For naught so vile that on the earth doth live/But to the earth some special good doth give.
There are obvious echoes in Shakespeare's text. Lawrence is a Franciscan, Valentinus was a Benedictine, but Lawrence in R & J talks about his Art and is a maker of potions and medicines. Frances Yates thought Lawrence was based on the Venetian Franciscan Friar Giorgi, Christian Kaballist and author of De Harmonium Mundi. Perhaps Shakespeare was giving a nod to both Valentinus and Giorgi in R & J. ThePeg 21:45, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
