Talk:Brabham BT19/Archive 1

message: Just my thoughts, but I would put the picture of actual car upper part of page, that you could see it straight away when opening page and move Jack Brabham pic to the racing history section...--— Typ932T | C  08:19, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I expect you're right, but in fact that picture will probably have to go. It's on a fair use rationale, which is tricky to uphold when the subject still exists. There are in fact several pictures of it on Flickr (search for Brabham BT19), but none currently have the correct licensing. :( 4u1e 21:25, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  The Road to FA 

message: At4u1e's request, I have read through this article again. I know absolutely nothing about racing or cars, so I am a good test for the layest and most ignorant of readers. 
:*I gather there is some disagreement over the following sentence: Formula One is the highest form of single-seater racing defined by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), motor sport's world governing body. - The statement seemed a little broad in the context of the article. The rest of the paragraph is much more specific. It did not really help me understand Formula One racing either, since I wasn't sure what "highest form" meant.

replies: text: *Climax abandoned the flat-16 unit's development before the end of the year: 1965 was the last season run under regulations limiting engine capacity to 1.5 litres (92 cu in) and Climax's existing FWMV V8 engines, although less powerful than the 16 cylinder motor, proved good enough to propel Jim Clark's Lotus 33 to seven wins and the drivers' championship. - I found this sentence a little unwieldly and difficult to parse. Perhaps it could be broken up into two? There are a few other sentences like this, but I think they may have seemed wordy to me because I am not familiar with racing terminology or car parts. 
I think that the lay reader can get the general idea of this article without any problem; the editor(s) do a nice of explaining the concepts they introduce. Moreover, no article can perfectly cater to the uninformed and informed. :) Awadewit | talk 20:51, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Soviet Victory? 

message: The text says the task force was led by Komm. Wilhelm Meendsen-Bohlken, in Scheer, yet the infobox says the commander was Adm. Hubert Schmundt; so which is it? Which one of them was in charge? Also, Schmundt’s page says he was commander of all German naval forces in Northern Norway, but Kemp says he had been replaced as Flag Officer Northern Waters by an Adm. Kluber by this time.

thread_title:  Who was in charge? 

message: The infobox stated that the result was "Indecisive, strategic German victory". I've altered this to "limited German success": 'victory' is too strong a term for the outcome, and there was nothing 'strategic' about it; the operation didn't affect Soviet traffic on the Northern Sea Route unduly, and made no difference to the overall strategic position in the Arctic. If anything, it was a strategic failure... Anyway, I've changed it to something more realistic. I trust everyone is OK with that... Xyl 54 (talk) 15:55, 30 September 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Turnaround (road)

message: I have also seen a turnaround ramp on a controlled-access highway.  Traffic not wishing to cross the border from Louisiana to Texas on Interstate 10 can use the Sabine Lake Turnaround.  Traffic exits at I-10 west exit 1 on the right, but the ramp crosses under the bridge about to go over the lake and merges with I-10 east across.  I would not be surprised if there are more of these, especially at national border crossings involving Interstates.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Simonsa (talk • contribs) 12:20, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Spamhog (talk) 13:01, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  A bit chaotic? 

message: These two sections appear to contradict one-another:
Composition: "The primary component of water gels is methylamine nitrate". 
The citation for this claim is a page published by DuPont in their "products" section. It's not clear that they are referring to watergel explosives in general, rather than some DuPont product.
Preparation: "Water gel explosives are produced by combining nitroparaffins, usually nitromethane, with an aqueous salt solution and a gelling agent".
This section needs more citations. This claim is supported by a citation to a page on freewebs.com; the author of the cited page is not named. That's not obviously a WP:RS. 
Methylamine nitrate (aka methylammonium nitrate) is not the same stuff as nitromethane. 
Since these two mutually-contradictory sections comprise the majority of the body of the article, it's hard to see how anyone could have confidence in the article. I want to tag the article with some sort of "poor article" warning, but I'm not sure which tag to use. MrDemeanour (talk) 09:38, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Maturity (geology)

message: Presently, in Wikipedia there's no article for 'source rock' there's this article about Maturity (geology) which is actually 'mature source rock', that is, it's a type of source rock.  There's also Petroleum geology but its 'source rock' section needs to be improved.  It doesn't address the levels of maturity very much.   Maybe someone (with a greater interest in geology than me) who reads this can create a 'source rock' article, or modify the 'mature rock' article, or improve the 'source' (source rock) section of Petroleum geology.

Talk:Citron melon

message: If anyone has a good photo of the vine of this plant in the flowering stage, it would be helpful since I have seen fruits like this growing in community gardens and backyards in Los Angeles.  Recently a huge quantity was donated to a local foodbank and some clients were perplexed as to what to do with it.  The article was helpful to a degree.  More info on it's use in Latino and Mexican Cuisine would be helpful.  The reason I even found this article was because I was trying to help clients find out more about the fruit they were being given as their "Vegetable allotment", many of them were old and of Eatern European Jewish descent.  They guessed it might be something to pickle just by cutting it open but some general info on New World uses would be helpful.  I'll try to gather some info myself, but other editors with an interest in this area are politely invited to help improve the article.  Thank you! LiPollis (talk) 19:02, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Kiselgof

message: Kiselgof, Zinovy Aronovich (1878-1939)
This article was inspired by information from Margot Leverett, clarinetist from the Klezmer Mountain Boys .  Margot once performed with Russian musicians who gave her a gift of two books which contained beautiful songs collected during the early 20th century, which had been recently discovered in St. Petersburg.  After seeing few internet references to this ethnomusicologist, I decided to start this page to collect information I have found about him and the music he collected.  
If you search Google for: kiselgof, zinovy
The following link contains relevant information: 
I found one book at the Workmen's Circle bookstore in New York City  which contained songs collected by Kiselgof: 
Jewish Community Center of St. Petersburg
Center for Jewish Music
Jewish Folk Melodies
collected by Zinovy Kiselgof
Republication of the collection prepared by the Jewish Folk Music Society in Petrograd in 1915
St. Petersburg 2001
The copyright page lists the following information:
Second, corrected edition

The book includes 24 melodies with chord symbols, dynamics, and metronome settings.
Paraphrasing the introduction:
The melodies are part of a unique collection of Yiddish folk songs, synagogue melodies, Hasidic Nigunim, Purimshpils, and instrumental music gathered by Kiselgof during the 1913-14 ethnographic expeditions organized by Semyon An-sky (Rappoport) to small towns of the Volhynia District and Byelorussia, where he used a phonograph to record thousands of examples of Jewish musical folklore.  Members of the Jewish Folk Music Society interpreted and described these collected works.  The songs in this book were first published in 1915 in Petrograd.
Two products are published by the Klezmer Mountain Boys which contain information about songs which are derived from the ethnomusicological studies of Zinovy Kiselgof and Moshe Beregovski.  They can be found on this page: 
1. The liner notes to the CD: Margot Leverett and the Klezmer Mountain Boys describe the sources for 3 of the songs.
2. Sheet music for several of these songs can be found in these books:
The Art of Klezmer Clarinet and Margot Leverett and the Klezmer Mountain Boys for Bb or C instruments
Since this music is very meaningful to Klezmer musicians and people of Jewish heritage, I encourage anybody with verifiable information to edit this post, so it may become a bibliographic reference for study.

thread_title: Krueger era

message: I have updated key figures and other basic facts about the company.
While doing so, I noticed the "Controversies" topic that was added anonymously on 1 September 2020 regarding an issue involving the Maltese politician John Dalli. Only the first sentence had a source reference, and the source in question was a press release by the European Commission, which makes it non-independent relative to the topic.
Reading the John Dalli article and its talk page, it is clear that several topics related to Dalli are highly contentious, not least the one that was the focus of the recent addition to the Swedish Match article. In line with the principle that "contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced should be removed immediately and without discussion" (see WP:BLPRS), I have deleted the topic in question.
It is also worth mentioning that the topic seems to be rather peripheral with regard to Swedish Match, as neither the single source cited by the deleted text, nor the treatment of the same topic in the John Dalli article, seems to indicate any active involvement by the company beyond the reporting of a suspected corruption scheme to the European Commission. --OttoG (talk) 23:12, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Total mixed ration

message: TMR stands for "Total Mixed Ration", it isn't a way to feed cows, it's what you feed to them. Usually, it contains: hay; silage; grain; minerals, and macro-nutrients... I think the article should be flushed out a bit, to explain this, your thoughts?
Extract from Holstein (cattle) article: ...greater use of Total Mixed Ration (TMR) feeding systems. Total mixed rations (TMR) continue to expand in use on dairy farms. A 1993 Hoard's Dairy survey reported that 29.2% of surveyed U.S. dairy farms had adopted this system of feeding dairy cows. A 1991 Illinois dairy survey found 26% of Illinois dairy farmers utilized TMR rations with 300 kg more milk per cow compared to other feeding systems. [16] The American type of operation (North and South America) is characterised by large loose-housing operations, total mixed ration feeding (TMR) and relatively many employees.
I think the term is very much used to describe the system, as it is largely to do with the mixer-wagon (US: diet feeder) required for the job. I probably released the article too soon, as it only has "overview" for the moment. I am going to include other sections, notably an example, and a breakdown of typical ingredients. Or maybe someone else will come in to help? Tractorboy60 14:58, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Not Only for Dairy Cows

message: One thing that is missing, is that feed is also analyzed for copper, magnesium, zinc, selenium, and sulphates.
Thanks, I will incorporate this, although if in a TMR you only use home grown forage which has been analysed, and "straights" for complement, usually you can add standard levels of minerals and trace elements as the cost is relatively low. Sulphates are almost never needed, though, as most rations contain more than enough. Calcium and Phosphorus are the most important, and then Vitamin A and D, Cu, Zn, Se, other trace elements and sometimes essential amino acids. Tractorboy60 15:34, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
