thread_title: Shipping currents!

message: I have not been able to find a reference for the claim in the existing article of current speeds up to 22 knots. When I look at the Saltstraumen tidal current graph and tables at https://www.barentswatch.no/en/saltstraumen/ I have yet to see a current speed over 1012 knots. Note that these tables use the main channel current speed, which seems appropriate when comparing current speeds with other channels, and is what is used in tide tables used for navigational purposes. 
Can anyone point us to a reference for the Saltstraumen of comparable authority as, say, the tidal current table published by Fisheries and Oceans Canada at http://www.tides.gc.ca/eng/data/currents/2016 for Canadian tidal currents?

thread_title:  Saltstraumen current speed 

message: This is written under the section "Name" in this Wikipedia-page:
"The first element is the name of the district Salten and the last element is the definite form of straum, meaning "stream" or "water flow"."
But under the name section on the Wikipedia page for the district "Salten" this is written: 
"The district is named after the Saltfjorden (Old Norse: Salpti), and the fjord is probably named after the famous Saltstraumen. Even though the word salt has the same meaning in the modern Norwegian language as in the English language, these names most likely have nothing to do with salt, but are derived from an old (obsolete) word salpt with the meaning "strong stream"."
Both can't be true, but I don't know what version is correct so I can't correct it.

thread_title:  Recursive name reference? 

message: The above account of the Saltstraumen is rather different than what The Norwegian Pilot reports.[3] The Pilot’s description of the normal current is based on the time of the high tide at Bodø. The greatest southbound current occurs about one and a quarter hours before Bodø high tide, when the inflowing current reaches about seven knots. This is not encyclopedic, but it's not clear which paragraph is actually the OR.       StarM 14:11, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

I struggle to understand why they are a part of the "Ideology" parametre, but I understand why they are in the "Ideology" section.

Talk:ISU-122

message: For any german tank destroyer. This line: "with rare exception (only JagdPanzers, JagdTiger, and Elefant were strong enough to resist the BR-471" is vague and inaccurate.
I assume it probably was meant to mean "JagdPanther" or perhaps Jagdpanzer IV, but since I'm not sure, I won't change it. Whoever did the original insertion should clarify/correct. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SenorBeef (talk • contribs) 19:32, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Firing tables of A-19 122mm gun state that armour piercing capability was 155 mm at 500 m under meeat angle 30 degrees with normal direction to the armour plane. German tests state some lesser value of 128 mm under the same conditions but this is probably due to ammunition and measurement methodics differences - Germans had not advanced APCBC projectile BR-471B (they had only standard AP BR-471) and in 1945 when it made first appearance on the battlefield, Germans had no time for writing scrupulous report about captured materiel. But it was quite enough to defeat glasis plate of Jagdpanzer IV and JagdPanther. the link to the Soviet armour penetration tests report (unfortunately in Russian). This report clearly states that front armour of Panther (with approx. same thickness and slope as JagdPanther) was punched by BR-471B at distance 2500 m with significant power to punch at much more distance. In Soviet test only full front projection of Ferdinand/Elefant and JagdTiger superstructure (not hull) was immune to A-19 fire. LostArtilleryman 06:42, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Jagdpanzer" is a generic term 

message: "the gun had poor armor performance"
Hmmm really? Penetrating (according to battlefield.ru) 100mm at a 30 degree slope at 2 km. AKA outclassing pretty much every German gun except the monstrous ones (i.e. pak 43 etc.)
Lack of sub-caliber/shaped charge rounds is a non sequitur as 1.) Zaloga says that there was a shaped charge shell for the gun and 2.) German stocks of sub-caliber were pretty minimal by the implementation of the ISU-122/ISU-152/IS-2 etc.

message: I note that the DVD version has cuts due to rights issues. This may be why it has never been repeated. Does anyone know what the cuts are? Its common for shows of this period to have rights problems with music not cleared for home video release. It may be more than this though. Maybe somebody knows.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.99.112.58 (talk) 13:11, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The cuts will be background music in pub scenes and the like, it is very common. 'Only Fools…' DVDs have a lot of these. The BBC can play chart hits in the background when they broadcast but GOLD and home release would have to be okayed by the rights holder so some scenes tend to be edited down a bit or have the soundtrack redone. By the late '90's the BBC would dub in background music in post production.
Does anyone think we should mention the fact that the third episode was postponed due to the Jamie Bulger incident (for the ridiculous reason that it showed children in a supermarket)? .. 
Might not have been Bulger actually, the incident in which two children were taken from a supermarket. Or perhaps a child took another child from a supermarket. And then there was a railway track involved, it's all very nasty.

text: It's probably because it represents real public broadcasting values: here advertising is life-destroying falsehood. At a time when the BBC is preparing to whore itself out to the highest bidder, manned almost entirely by people who would work for commercial TV if it paid them enough, it's an unpalatable reminder of how great they so recently were.
I agree - complaints about dead ducks (the duck was made of silk actually) and racism are contrived. The reason this gem is almost impossible to get hold of is simply its politics, which were fairly lefty and elegant at the time, and would now seem like Marxist TV, made all the 'worse' by being convincing and slickly done. Not allowed I guess.
The title, by the way, is a reference to the "If you see Sid, tell him" TV advertising campaign for the privatisation of British Gas. One of the writers told me that the cutesy, faux-chummy style used to promote privatisation prompted them to write the show.
