Talk:Dromaeosauroides

message: I'm finding that when using my tablet and tapping on the photo of the tooth (to get a pic of just the tooth) either here in the article's Infobox or on Wikipedia's main page under the "From today's featured article" section, I'm 'taken' (or go) to a blank black page/screen.
Is anybody else having this 'problem'?
And when I tap the back arrow, I end up on the page before either page with the pic of the tooth.
Weird, huh?

Talk:Ernst Alexanderson

message: It seems clear that the Christmas Eve, 1906 transmission by Reginald Fessenden was the first transatlantic voice/music transmission.  But which transmitter did he use? Was it Ernst Alexanderson's alternator, or the rotary spark-gap transmitter that he already had at the Brant Rock, MA. site?  Several Internet sources say that it was, indeed, Alexanderson's new alternator.  But the IEEE publication comparing Fessenden and Marconi's methods insists that it was the rotary spark-gap transmitter that made this broadcast, and the level of detail it gives is convincing (80 kHz tuned antenna, 1.8 m rotary gap, 50 electrode rotor driven by 35 kVA steam powered (125 Hz) alternator). But the same page has the intriguing paragraph here By the summer of 1906 many of the difficulties had been overcome and the Alexanderson HF alternator developed by GE for Fessenden giving 50 kHz was installed at Brant Rock. Various improvements were made by Fessenden and his assistants, and by the fall of 1906 the alternator was working regularly at 75 kHz with an output of one half a kilowatt. This was the beginning of pure CW transmission, (c.f. Alexanderson [1919] "Transatlantic Radio Communication", Trans. AIEE, pp. 1077-1093) which lends a bit of uncertainty to the explanation.  Evidently Fessenden had both transmitters in place, and we may need to track down these old publications, or find a definitive history text to resolve the differences in the Internet accounts.  --Blainster 03:36, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

message: The previous citation for the quote does not quite appear to be correct. The quote given comes from "The Wonders of the Invisible World" by Cotton and Increase Mather on page 283 (the noted title seems more akin to a chapter or essay within the larger work):
″This notwithstanding I will add; It were better that ten suspected Witches should escape, than that one innocent Person should be Condemned; that is an old saying, and true, Prestat reum nocentem absolvi, quam ex prohibitis Indiciis & illegitima probatione condemnari. It is better that a Guilty Person should be Absolved, than that he should without sufficient ground of Conviction be condemned. I had rather judge a Witch to be an honest woman, than judge an honest woman as a Witch.

Talk:Equijubus

message: "The type species, Equijubus normani, was described by You, Luo, Shubin, Witmer, Tang, and Tang in 2003 as a primitive hadrosaur ("duck-billed" dinosaur), although it may turn out to be a non-hadrosauroid iguanodont."
This is the altercation I made. The original line read "may turn out to be an iguanodont". I changed it because it implied the two were mutually exclusive cases, when they are not. If Equijubus is a hadrosaur, then of course, it is also an iguanodont, because hadrosaurs are nested within Iguanodontia. I assume the intent was to imply that Equijubus may be more basal than the Hadrosauroidea (unlikely but still), so I've tried to stay true to that.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.61.212.116 (talk) 11:37, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Eshanosaurus

message: If Eshanosaurus is really a therizinosaur, it would complicate the therizinosaur cladogram because it is older than Falcarius, the first therizinosaur of the Cretaceous period. The placement of Eshanosaurus within Therizinosauria follows Kirland et. al. (2005) and Xu et. al. (2002).

: To be honest, I haven't got a clue on whether Eshanosaurus is prosauropod or therizinosaur. I personally lean towards prosauropod (the idea of an Early Jurassic therizinosaur just seems...weird), but a lot of paleontologists want to go the other way. In summary: the debate continues.

message: The links to examples at the John Hopkins University require an $80 pre-paid subscription to be viewed. It doesn't seem to make much sense to include links to information only a certain few people can access.
The links at the bottom of this article are USELESS for probably 99% of the people who view this article, so I agree with the person above.
: I don't see what it hurts to include the links -- many academic institutions have subscriptions, and so many readers (who will tend to be students for an article like this) will be able to read the JHU Guide articles, which are much longer and more detailed than this one.
