message: Working with WP:FRAT to improve the use of the :Template:Infobox Fraternity. I've added a tracking category for if the "type" parameter exists, it must have a value (if not, it goes into a tracking category), but I've gotten some requests for more advanced including (generalized) put into a tracking category if the value for a specific field isn't of the form , with year month and day (so no value and  also counts as problematic.

Talk:Sonamukhi

message: A city(town with a municipality) that connects Bardhaman(Burdwan), Bishnupur, Durgapur and Bankura and soon to be connected with Panagarh surrounded by forest on one side and River Damodar on the other side is one of the verdant jewel of Bankura district. It is a blend of tradition and modernization and has improved vastly in terms of education, agriculture, roads and railways. The Bankura Damodar Railway has started its operation from Masagram(chord) to Bankura.(During day time it starts from Mathnashipur). The train is itself an object to behold, a biodiesel run engine with its front shaped like a beak of a bird. The forest is popularly known as Chunporar math or Chunpora jungle is the home of Jackals, Hyenas and Elephants. The jungle is rich in Sal trees famous for timber and leaves used to make plates. The most predominant river is the Shali river and its canal the Bonparul. And where these 2 rivers cut each other perpendicularly there is the aqueduct with a narrow footbridge for adventure seekers. Adjacent to the Chunpora forest there is the deserted Alqatra/Tar factory which looks eerie from inside and a well in it whose depth seems infinite until you throw a stone(advice: dont risk your lives by looking into the well).
If you are an adventure seeker you can roam in the forest at day time but be cautions of elephants, there are innumerable streams which can quench your thrust during exploration but keep your compass ready. You can take a dip into Shali river or any other brown coloured ponds, not the green or black ones. This place is made for adventure. Even Sonamukhi Railway station is surrounded by jungle.
Coming back to the city you will find the Sonamukhi municipality, Bindubasini Jubilee High School, Sonamukhi Super Market, the Chowrasta(junction of Bishnupur Road, Durgapur via Pakhanna Polashdanga road, Burdwan Road and Bankura road). Yes there is also a Sonamukhi college and Sonamukhi girls school along with BJ High School. An engineering college is also being built. Now come to the city streets, surprised to see concrete roads, yes thats what municipality is for. The residents do enjoy water supply two times a day and electricity with few cuts. Industry both small and medium is thriving here along with agriculture. Interested in heritage, sonamukhi wont disappoint you,as there are temples and havelis centuries old, the famous needle and many such things. Sonamukhi is emerging, there are ATMs, Recharge shops and yes, Cyber Cafes. Well, there is also a cimema hall.
Rise of Sonamukhi will be more prominent when the bridge across Damodar comes into existence, connecting Panagarh and Sonamukhi which are very near to each other and land rates will surely increase.

message: The article currently implies doubt that this species was endothermic, evidenced by a statement that warm-bloodedness is a disadvantage when combined with a small body size. I'm not a biology expert, but the average body size of modern endothermic mammals and birds seems to indicate that whatever tradeoffs are necessary to maintain both warm-bloodedness and small size are well worth it. --Raphite (talk) 05:38, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Talk:USS Oklahoma City (CL-91)

message: I removed the footnotes flag because it was annoying and somewhat incorrect.  Like the vast majority of articles on US warships, this article is nearly a verbatim version of the ship's entry in DANFS.  Sometimes Wikpedia's obsessive footnoting style works well, but here it doesn't.  To use it, you'd have to footnote every sentence.  A possible solution, one that I am going to try to see what the reaction is, is to say at the beginning "Unless otherwise noted, all information below is from...".  But back to the big issue.  Most US ship articles are little more or nothing more than the DANFS entry.  If this one is flagable, then probably hundreds more are.  If we are to flag, we should do it consistently. And given that their probably are hundreds, do we want all those flags hanging around forever? Busaccsb (talk) 17:10, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  ARM missile shot 

message: I wanted to edit the title of this page from USS Oklahoma City (CL-91) to USS Oklahoma City (CL-91/CLG-5/CG-5), but could not edit the title.
I served on the USS Oklahoma City (CG-5) between 1977-1979. But when I looked it up on the web, I only found your reference to USS Oklahoma City (CL-91) and NOT (CG-5) and so I thought it was a different ship until actually looking into the article.
Thus I recommend changing the title to include all of her nomenclatures CL-91/CLG-5/CG-5.

Talk:Morlet wavelet

message: Why has this article been marked as being in need of expert attention? Jon Harrop 04:11, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Expert 

message: The formula and discussion of "central frequency" is wrong. From the formula for the Fourier Transform of the Morlet wavelet, it
is clear that the peak is near omega=-sigma, NOT omega=+sigma as stated in the final line. The following formula for omega_Psi is also wrong; just differentiate the Fourier Transformed wavelet to see that.
Of course, there are many definitions of the FT. The one used here uses exp[+i omega t] in the kernel. If you use exp[-i omega t] instead, you get the same formula, but containing exp[-(sigma-omega)^2/2] instead of exp[-(sigma+omega)^2/2], and the peak is near omega=sigma.
Alternatively, if you want to stick with your FT formula, you need exp[-i sigma t] instead of exp[+i sigma t] in the original wavelet formula.
