Talk:Bunratty

message: ...sorry, but my initial reaction to this page was to nominate it for deletion or at the very least to be merged with the Bunratty Castle article. There is absolutely nothing here that establishes any sort of notability (see WP:NOTE)! Virtually all the so-called references are the websites of commercial businesses used as sources on themselves! Of the actual reliable sources WP:RS, two were media reports about a retail business that burned down and was not reopened. Wow! The other RS is the Census - but that only offers proof that the village is not even significant enough to figure there. According to the previous version of the page, the only notable event in the village's history seems to be a motorcycle accident - and even the source for that is a WP:SPS! No need to point out that WP is not a directory or a guidebook (WP:NOTGUIDE). This tourist guide stuff might be appropriate at Wikivoyage...so why not post it there?  
Here is the SPS material, maybe someone can find another source for this and restore it:
At 2pm on Sunday the 10th of July two British Army motorcycle despatch riders crossed the bridge from Limerick and, despite some local people trying to warn them of the breach, both plunged into the Raite River.  Private Williams split open his head on the stonework and lost consciousness as he fell. The other rider saved himself but Williams was seen by a local publican Mrs Ryan and her daughter, to go under.  His body was swept down the river and found by a local farmer two or three weeks later, caught up in bulrushes on the eastern bank two hundred yards north from Bunratty Bridge.  The local farmer who found him had also witnessed the fatality. He dragged the body from the river and buried him nearby in marshy ground.  During the civil war the Governor Generals secretary in Dublin wrote to Richard Mulcahy seeking help in recovering Williams body.  The Free State Army spent several days in 1925 excavating the banks of the Raite river looking for William's remains. Even though they had the assistance of the farmer who discovered and buried the body it was never recovered. They concluded that the remains had sunk too deeply into the marshy ground to be recovered.http://www.cairogang.com/soldiers-killed/williams-july-21/williams.html
Let's give this page another chance by stripping it down and getting rid of all the commercial advertising. If someone can add stuff that establishes notability, fine. Otherwise, I still think this should be deleted/merged to Bunratty Castle.Drow69 (talk) 10:55, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  units ? 

message: Note that I specifically refer to "cylinders", and am considering revolvers in the following offhand analysis.
None of the references listed in this article is adequate. Beyond that, essentially all of the info on this subject that can be found on the "net" is useless. Since gun manufacturers do not publish the yield points for their cylinders (or (easily determined, so I assume the test is done, but the data kept "in house"), published pressure data is only useful for "ballpark" estimation of relative peak stress produced in an adequately strong chamber.
:For the record, cylinder strength data can be easily developed by attaching strain gages to an actual production cylinder, pressing a small metal plug in one end, filling the cylinder with silicone or urethane elastomer, and then compressing it with a properly fitted piston instrumented with a load cell. Test engineers will recognize what I am describing as an isostatic pressure test of hoop stress. Additional data would then be collected by testing a number of cylinders to failure and analyzing contributing factors to failure, performing followup low-cycle fatigue testing, and finally the determination of a safe limit. The data could then be used to evaluate strain data collected when the cylinder is used as designed in an actual gun frame (also instrumented to detect topstrap yield).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.127.3.249 (talk) 15:04, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't believe the term "cylinder" in this article refers to revolver cylinders. In reference to copper or lead unit of pressure (CUP or LUP) "cylinder" refers to the cylinder of copper or lead crushed by the piston in the chamber of the test barrel. The amount of crush in these cylinders is then measured to determine the amount of pressure generated by firing the cartridge. -- Naaman Brown (talk) 14:32, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Portal talk:Pornography/Did you know/Archive

message: Rather than just have four, pathetic DYKs sitting out there, I turned this page into a table.  I added two message boxes at the top -- one designating the page for DYKs which appeared on Wikipedia's main page, and the other describing how people can add DYKs and what they should do when they add one.  I then went back about eight months in Wikipedia's DYK archives and added all the pornography-related DYKs I could find (there are roughly 12 of them; I may have missed some, sorry).  I populated the table.  I then changed the Pornography Portal site to select one DYK at random from the DYK entries here.
To add a DYK entry, just click on the next empty link, and add and save the entry.
As people add DYKs, they will need to increase the "max" number on the Portal main page.
I hope this change is all right with everyone. - Tim1965 (talk) 20:17, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

message: I see on the page "...that the nudie cutie The Adventures of Lucky Pierre was the first sexploitation movie to be filmed in color?" Lucky Pierre was released in 1961, and Russ Meyer's The Immoral Mr. Teas in 1959. Am I missing some distinction? Because Mr. Teas is in color, and, as far as I've always known, it's considered a sexploitation/"nudie-cutie"... I supposed there's no way to fix this now though...

I think it was Friedman & Lewis' first "nudie cutie", but the genre was initiated by Meyer (as far as I know). Wasn't Doris Wishman making her nudist colony films from 1960?... I see some of this is attributed to Friedman, who can be forgiven for blowing his own horn, if that's the case here. Or possibly he was just saying it was his & Lewis' first work in the genre?...

Talk:North Eastern Province, Sri Lanka

message: The opening paragraph reads ' the area (i.e.: northeastern province) is known as sri lanka's Tamil Country ' and gives a BBC citation. The BBC citation states  'A trip to Sri Lanka's Tamil country - A sudden phone call gave the BBC's Sri Lanka correspondent Charles Haviland rare access to the the war-battered north of the island... ' which implies that the BBC writer referred to the 'north' of Sri Lanka as 'tamil country'. No-where in the article does it refer to the 'eastern province' or the 'northeastern' combined province as tamil country. 
So the statement in the opening paragraph lacks a credible citation. Please provide a credible citation (pref BBC or UN report) that the northeastern province of Sri Lanka was referred to as 'tamil country' or it will removed.

# It wasn't clear to me (who was consulting it to clarify the table at Pearson Cup and confirm my conclusions at World Series#Local rivalries). All the scores started with the greater number (5-2 rather than 2-5), so there was no way of testing my eventual hypothesis about who won besides looking at the Winning Pitcher (e.g. Andy Pettite);
# Under WP:Accessibility, while color is encouraged, it should reinforce some indicator that's visible on a monochrome screen or to color-blind eyes, rather than serve as the sole indicator; and

Talk:Ramones band members

message: The Ritchie spelling is incorrect according to just about every source I've ever seen. Dee Dee himself uses the proper "Richie" in Lobodomy:Surviving The Ramones, as does Jim Bessman in Ramones: An American Band and Jim Fields in End of the Century. I've also seen commentary from Joey's brother who interviewed him some years back, using the "Richie" spelling. I believe the earliest reference may have been a 1976 issue of Punk. Whoever insists on using the "t" spelling needs to provide a citation. Here are the current Google results for each spelling;
[] Richie Stern
[] Ritchie Stern (and most are erronious Wiki entries)
*That is true except for the Ramones book Ramones: An American Band in which Joey Ramone discusses Ritchie and the fact he was in the band for two rehearsels. He even goes on saying Ritchie later was a button manufacturer.
But this is just an issue of spelling. I did notice On The Road With The Ramones uses the 'Ritchie' spelling, and what the hell, I don't have Bessman's book with me at the moment so I could be mistaken about the spelling in that, but I maintain that most other sources (including Dee Dee's autobio and the 1976 article) use 'Richie'.
BTW, it's likely that what Joey meant by "button manufacturer" was simply that he was making pinbacks and hawking them outside shows. Roz666 06:11, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
