Talk:Water tank

message: Wikipedia is not a how-to-guide. The purpose of this article is not to give design tips to potential purchasers of water tanks. Nor is Wikipedia an advertising board- we're not here to promote tanksystems. As the recent edits have appeared to contradict both of these prinicples, I am going to revert them. Please discuss proposed changes here. -Will Beback 22:14, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Problems

message: Hi, I've added a pic of a historical water tank, but I think all of this article needs to tie in better with Cistern. Remember that the article is about the concept, not about the different terms used for it. So, maybe think about water tank and cistern: are they the same concept? If yes, merge the articles ( I can help). If not, what is the difference? Can you make it clear?  You'll probably want to discuss with the editors of cistern.
Sorry to suggest this work without doing much to help - I was just passing on my way to another article! Cheers, JackyR | Talk 22:37, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Bahrain Freedom Movement

message: The following was removed because it is an entirely POV statement.
:This duality of name reflects a duality of message depending upon whether it has an English or Arabic speakign audience. As such the two names are crucial to the presentation of the organisation's message. In English, it criticizes Bahrain’s government from a liberal progressive perspective, highlighting issues of discrimination, unemployment and human rights and is careful not to indicate an Islamist agenda as it seeks to undermine the credibility of reforms since 2001. In Arabic it criticizes the government over so-called morality issues and the 'genocide' represented by immigration.

replies: text: Hi, I'm the original author of this section from the The Da Vinci Code (film) article. Someone transferred it from there and created a new article.  I don't want to trim this down; I had a hard time finding the sources regarding this article.  It is a really a hard work for me and it will go to waste if it will be slimmed down. I think that The Da Vinci Code (film) article is already beyond the recommended article size, so we can no longer merge it there.  I propose that The Da Vinci Code (film)#Reactions_to_the_film should have a new article together with this one (The Da Vinci Code in the Philippines).

Talk:Mercury cadmium telluride

message: There seems to be a contradiction between the statement
"Owing to its cost, the use of HgCdTe has so far been largely restricted to the military field, remote sensing and infrared astronomy research. Military technology has depended on HgCdTe for night vision. In particular, the US air force makes extensive use of HgCdTe on all aircraft, and to equip airborne smart bombs. A variety of heat-seeking missiles are also equipped with HgCdTe detectors. HgCdTe detector arrays can also be found at most of the worlds major research telescopes including several satellites. Many HgCdTe detectors (such as Hawaii and NICMOS detectors) are named after the astronomical observatories or instruments for which they were originally developed."
 and 
"HgCdTe is often a material of choice for detectors in Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometers. This is because of the large spectral range of HgCdTe detectors and also the high quantum efficiency."
What is true?  As there is an FTIR spectrometer in pretty much every better chemistry lab, one statements must be incorrect...  Could someone who is familiar with construction and sales knowledge of FTIR specs please clarify this?  Thanks!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.13.72.198 (talk) 13:11, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Why edit warring is bad for the soul 

message: Greetings. I'm a teahouse host and a Mr. Deror Wong who says his title is Senior Executive Corporate Communications & CSR DID posted the following question: The information under History isn't accurate. Would you change them to: Singapore Press Holdings Limited was formed on 4 August 1984 through a merger of three organisations - the Straits Times Press group, the Singapore News and Publications Limited and Times Publishing Berhad which was later de-merged from SPH in 1988. The merger brought together the English, Malay and Chinese newspapers under one roof. SPH later also bought Tamil Murasu Pte Ltd. He has received the standard reply that since he is (I think) a member of Singapore Press Holdings he can't edit the article and we can't just take his word for what is accurate information. But I thought it worthwhile to post his comment here in case he is right about the accuracy and in case someone can verify it in an independent source. I noticed that there seems to be some controversy here and I'm not trying to take sides or stir things up, just thought perhaps his comment might have merit if it can be verified. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 01:55, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Centennial High School (Calgary)

message: Are there any articles or anything supporting the existence Link Crew? Surely searching "Link Crew + Centennial" on the Alberta Education website would come up with something if it's "home to one of only three Link Crews in all of Alberta." Although by searching this, it comes up with one result, which is completely unrelated to this school and a supposed "Link Crew" (since "link" and "crew" come up in separate instances in the article, but never together). Furthermore, nothing is displayed about this on Centennial's own website or school profile on the CBE. So, there's two sections in the article about a "Link Crew" that most people haven't heard of and there isn't any proof of actually existing, not to mention certain things in the article leading me to believe it's just a ruse.
I attended the school for three years. It does indeed exist. It mentions it here: http://schools.cbe.ab.ca/b870/Publications/Registration%20Start%20Up%20Package%202009.pdf search for link in the document you will get three hits.

message: The Volvo 3314 or civilian C202 was nicknamed "Valp" ("puppy") and mainly used in Scandinavia by civilians, industries and militaries.
As for the Land Rover, the Valp prototype was on the plain US Jeep chassis and drivetrain. In the late 40s, the French has even made by Duriez" a Fordward Control on Jeep chassis. I've got my Valp in 1959 engined with the Volvo 504 Amazon B16 4 cylender, going to Tunisia. Years later, the rig was reengined with B18 in the 60s. 
Back to the US and Canada in 1968, Valp was upgraded with the brand new B20, the same than the one on my 122S. She was winterized with body insulation and super heater at front and rear!!! She is on retirement in a barn, as for myself, by now!
