Talk:Ivan Mazepa

message: "He expanded the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, the primary educational institution of Ukraine at the time, to accommodate 2,000 students, founded schools and printing houses". Since during that time Ukraine was a part of the Russian Empire, this sentence should be mentioned as "primary educational institution of Ukraine and Russian Empire". The Moscow State University has been founded only in 1755 by M. Lomonosov who spent some time in Kyiv-Mohyla Academy himself (look into appropriate articles about Moscow University and Lomonosov).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.187.102.37 (talk) 23:13, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

message: ==Untitled==
Folks, I don't know what you were taught in school, but I was always taught that you do NOT alphabetize based on the 'T' in 'the' or 'A' or 'An.' The definite and indefinite articles (the, a, an, and their equivalents in other languages) are ignored for the purpose of alphabetization.
:This is an issue with the people who categorised those novels, not with the category. If you wish, you can find the articles and change the category such that they read Name of the novel, The instead of just plain Category:Science fiction novels. -- Grunt (talk) 02:51, 2004 Aug 17 (UTC)

Talk:World records at the 2004 Summer Olympics

message: This page needs to be clearer in what record was broken "Men's Individual (70m): South Korea's Dong Hyun Im, 687" - I a not sure what this is saying - what is the 687? It would also be interesting to have information on the previous record, when it was set - by how far it was exceeded. I have no information, and so cannot do this myself--Oldak Quill 02:50, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I've added "points" after the archery results to address this concern; a fuller explanation (how points are awarded in archery, etc.) seems out of place for this page.  I'm ambivalent about the idea of listing the records that were broken, as it runs the risk of cluttering up the page. If it can be done without becoming obtrusive, that'd be fine, but I don't otherwise see a strong necessity for it.  --Shmuel 20:23, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Talk:M-209

message: The page currently says the M-209's wheels were used to set the key:
:From the code clerk's point of view, the M-209 was simple to operate. There were six wheels on top of the box that each displayed a letter of the alphabet through a window, and he could set these six wheels to provide the key for enciphering a message. This only gave a limited number of possible keys, but as will be discussed momentarily there were internal settings as well that could provide a much greater range of key settings.
However, David Kahn in The Codebreakers (see pp: 428-429) says that the key material consisted of the settings of the pins on the wheels and the positions of the lugs on the "cage".  The positions of the wheels were set to a random position which was transmitted in the clear to the recipient.  In other words, the initial positions of the wheels acted like an initialization vector.
I'm inclined to trust Kahn, but I was wondering if there is another source which contradicts him.  I'll wait a few days and then make the change. Peter 03:27, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Yep, it seems it could do with fixing. The manual  talks about "internal" and "external" "keying elements"; as you note, the initial positions of the wheel ("internal") were used as an IV, and sent in the clear (or optionally encrypted somehow). The "external keying elements" were the positions of the lugs and the settings of the pins. — Matt 03:49, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Judo at the 2004 Summer Olympics

message: Would somebody knowledgeable please explain in the article why two bronze medals are awarded? (I presume it's because no third-place bout is held between semifinal losers; but why is that? Other Olympic tournament-based sports do have a consolation match.) Doops 03:44, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: From the looks of it, the bronze medal winners must win their last matches (both of them) to win the bronze medal. Both semi-final losers must are sent down to the repechage which all the losing judokas are in, and they play the winner's there. Why the two winners dont play eachother though for the bronze medal is beyond me. Earl Andrew 06:33, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, now I see the repechage: stupid of me to write an offhand comment without looking into things at all. But I have to say: not only is it unclear (as you mention) why the repechage doesn't include a bronze-medal match, I can't even figure out who goes into the repechage. It doesn't seem to be set up quite like the "losers' bracket" of a classic double-elimination tournament. Doops 07:09, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, here's the system. Kinda bizzare! A single-elimination format determines the winners of the gold and silver medalists, while a double repechage...determines the two bronze medalists. ... All athletes who lose to a main-draw semifinalist participate in the repechage of their respective pool. Following a single-elimination format, two repechage winners emerge, one from Pool A and one from Pool B. The Pool A repechage winner competes against the losing semifinalist from the Pool B main draw, with the winner earning one bronze medal; the Pool B repechage winner faces the losing semifinalist from Pool A's main draw for the second bronze medal. Both losers from the two bronze-medal matches place fifth. [Quoted from http://www.nbcolympics.com/judo/about.html] In other words, the eventual fortunes of the competitor who defeats you determine whether or not you're invited back to the repechage.
