Talk:USS S-4

message: The photograph in this article, labeled: "USS S-48 (same class as S-4)" is a lousy illustration for this article, because, as can be seen on the S-class submarine page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_S-class_submarine), that 'class' of submarines actually consisted of several different designs, and the S-4 was NOT the same design as the S-48. Just look at the differences in displacement, length, and armament between this page and the S-48's page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_S-48_(SS-159)).

:"She left Midway again 19 March, bound for Tokyo. During the entire patrol, with 26 days on station, she sighted only four torpedo targets, one of them a submariner's dream, an aircraft carrier, identified as Shokaku. Pompano fired six torpedoes at long range (4000yd, 3659m), and was credited with damage for 28900 tons.JANAC denied it postwar. ibid., p.926. It is likely the Mark XIV torpedoes prematured, as they did when Tunny attacked Taiyo in April. ibid., p.412-3.

Talk:Miguel Asín Palacios

message: Algazel is the Latin name for Al-Ghazali of Iran, which Latin name was extensively used in European learning beginning with the medieval period. The Latin name was adopted by other European languages, including Spanish. Accordingly, unless history is falsified or language conventions ignored, it's use is proper depending on the circumstances. Here, of course, the article is about an author who wrote in Spanish. 
It is quite common in all languages to initially use substitutions or approximate pronunciations for foreign words, which then become part of the common vocabulary. Accordingly in English, "Confucius" is still used for the ancient Chinese sage Kong Fuzi, "Charlemagne" is still used for the early-medieval emperor Karl der Grosse, "Florence" is still used for the Italian city of Firenze, and "Egypt" is still used for the country of Misr. For a Chinese or a German or an Italian or an Egyptian to object to such long-standing substitutions or approximations is generally understandable. Yet insistence that English-speakers suddenly break with convention to follow a foreign style is usually considered miss-guided, quixotic or pedantic. Certainly languages change, and learned words change, but past usage is also retained--unless objectionable for an intrinsic reason. 
The juxtaposition of multiple styles of names for historical figures or for regions can add cultural depth to a discussion, and show variety in the points of view. "A foolish consistancy is the hobgobblin of little minds," declared Ralph Waldo Emerson. Elfelix (talk) 00:27, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Redirects

message: I have removed a sentence stating "The Sturgeon class (SCB 188A) was built with the Flasher-type hull as part of their SUBSAFE redesign, along with an even larger sail. [Friedman, pp. 143–46]" The source does not in fact say this, it merely states "the design [indicating the Thresher and/or Flasher design] was then completely revised to become the Sturgeon class. [p. 143]" Friedman goes on to (correctly) say that the Sturgeon was a significant redesign.  The confusion about the "Flasher-type hull" likely stems from the fact that the Flasher and Sturgeon were exactly the same length, 292'6". One example of the difference between the hulls are the toroconical transitions between the cone and full-diameter hull, evident in the drawing on p. 149.
In fact, the decision to lengthen the Flasher, Gato, and Greenling (laid down as repeat Threshers with the same 278'6" length) came after the dimensions were set for the FY63 SSN, which became the Sturgeon.  The FY63 SSN preliminary design summary is dated 25 October 1962 and a memorandum titled "SS(N) 613, 614, and 615; Lack of adequate margin to accomplish the Submarine Safety Program on" is dated 24 November 1963.  The latter states, "it is recommended that these ships be lengthened 13'-9" [5 frames]..." Both documents can be found in Box 72, Entry P62 (Item S-13), RG-19, NARA, College Park, Md.
Normally I would not go into this amount of detail for a simple edit, but given that other edits that I have done have been reverted, I thought this prudent. Vepr157 (talk) 07:15, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

Talk:USS Permit (SSN-594)

message: I was a Navy Officer on the Permit from 1970 to 1974.  The statement in the article that the Permit underwent overhaul at Mare Island in 1969 is factually incorrect. To my recollection, the Permit entered the Mare Island shipyard in January 1971.  In late 1973 (or early 1974), we temporarily left Mare Island for Bremerton, Washington, where we were based for about 6 weeks while doing some at-sea testing.  After finishing the testing, we went back to Mare Island for a short time before leaving for San Diego in early 1974.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lt RWMoore (talk • contribs) 21:58, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Loïs Lane (band)

message: In the early 1990's, the backup band for Lois Lane occasionally played their own gigs.  (Think "The Band" which was the backup for Bob Dillon.)

I met the Klemann sisters as they were hanging at the bar watching their friends -- very nice ladies.  Anyway, 17 years is a long time and I can't remember the name that the backup band used when they played without the sisters.  Perhaps someone can contact them to make the article more complete?
