Talk:YesAsia

message: This article is really a mess. It is essentially advertising for YesAsia, and is full of unfounded claims, and weaselly language related to legal threats from Disney.

Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history/Campaignboxes/Stats 26 Jan 2006

message: * Note: 421 specific Campaignbox entries in this list
* Two generic templates (Template:Campaign & Template:Campaignbox)
* Two templates use the "name" of Campaignbox, but do not use the actual template.  
* 417 specific campaign templates  
As of 25 Jan 2006, list contains  
* 11 fictional campaigns included (Star Wars, LOTR, Star Trek)
* 16 re-directs
* Leaving ~390 unique Campaignboxes
** Lots of American Civil War Campaignboxes.  40 at the excellent new article Western Theater of the American Civil War
However, the list at Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Campaignboxes shows 321 entries (I counted this morning).  
So it seems that list is missing about 70 Campaignboxes.  Or there are alot of non-obvious re-directs.
Use this list anyway possible, suggest marking if anything has been fixed. Maybe someone else could cross-reference the two lists and find the missing articles?  Wendell 05:36, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Naval Support Facility Kamiseya

message: Text moved from article:
In September of 1875 a fire broke out in the main working area known as "The Tunnel", a converted, semi-underground bunker used in World War II for manufacturing torpedoes.  Twelve men died in this fire.  Early reports attributed the fire to improper installation of an incinerator, which had been recently installed to vent up through an interior wall without adequate insulation around the vent pipe.  Testimony given by at least one witness during the subsequent investigation supported this; the wall where the Navy later stated that an electrical short started the fire was cool to the touch even when the area was filling with smoke and a fire was evident.

Talk:Weyl's postulate

message: Nonsense!  The hypothesis just says that the world lines of the dust particles (model galaxies or whatever) are vorticity-free.  This is indeed true for the FRW dusts, FRW fluids, and many closely related models such as the Bianchi dusts.  But there are plenty of cosmological models which do not satisfy this hypothesis but which can be described as big bang models!  There are even models close to the familiar FRW models which exhibit nonzero vorticity.  ---CH 04:03, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Fundamental assumption of big-bang theory?

message: :It's not complete nonsense, because the requirement of the orthogonality of the base sets in any coordinate system is a simple axiom of all physical vector spaces.  It is a foundational tool of quantum mechanics, and of electromagnetism as well, and it is thus independent of a cosmological model.  This article states that it is in need of an expert - and this is true for as it stands it is terse at best and only through my math and physics background can I make heads or tails of it. I will be glad to put it on my watchlist and to improve it, and if there are any other astrophysicists or applied mathematicians who can help make this article readable, let's discuss the improvements we can make.  If you do not have a strong background in math and physics, please discuss proposed changes here on the talk page before making them, or otherwise cite your changes with supporting peer-reviewed literature or a revert is more likely on the changes.  Let's make this article a good one! Cheers, Astrobayes 20:49, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Considering it is one of the three basic assumptions of modern cosmology (citation e.g.: d'Inverno's introducing Einstein's relativity) I have increased this article to mid from low importance.

In addition it should be more prominently cross-referenced in the other cosmology articles as required.

Talk:Oxyanion

message: There are two stubs, oxyanion and oxoanions, covering the same subject, though the content is different.  A quick Google search shows oxyanions:oxoanions are in the ratio 4:1, and oxyanion:oxoanion are in the ratio 60:1.  Therefore I am proposing that oxyanion become the main article, with oxoanion, oxoanions and oxyanions being redirects.  One problem is that I note there is a :Category:oxoanions, should this be renamed to :Category:oxyanions?  I don't have strong opinions either way (I've heard both oxy and oxo), is there a name recommended by IUPAC? Whatever we choose, we shouldn't have two parallel articles. Walkerma 04:13, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I searched the Pubmed database of medical/biochemical literature and find 24 uses of Oxoanion and 632 uses of Oxyanion. The ISI Web of Science finds 137 for Oxo and 959 for Oxy.

thread_title: Merge notice

message: An oxyanion or oxoanion is a chemical compound with the generic formula AxOyz− (where A represents a chemical element and O represents an oxygen atom).
Would water (hydrogen oxide) and hydrogen peroxide be considered oxyanions, because they don't seem to be named as oxyanions.  My thought was that the "A" had to represent another substance other than oxygen or hydrogen. 64.107.219.15 (talk) 22:45, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Water is H2O and not negatively charged. It is not an anion and therefore cannot be an oxyanion. I guess the above definition fro oxyanions [AxOy]z− needs to be amended with x,y,z>0. Same for hydrogen peroxide [H2O2]. It's not anion. However the hydroxide anion OH- could well be considered an oxyanions of hydrogen (A=H, x,y,z=1). I don't see any reason to exclude H from being A. But it is afaik unusual to refer to hydroxide anions as oxyanions. Theroetically also the suproxide anion [O2]- and the peroxide anion [O2]2- could be considerd oxyanions, with A=O. But I don't know if that is considered at all. 2A02:1205:C69F:FC20:CABC:C8FF:FEA7:3DAD (talk) 16:21, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

message: I know it might cater to the biased editors, but I'm just throwing the idea out there for a criticism section. Surfrider's involvement in California's Marine Life Protection Act process has not been without controversy. They have made pro-closure statements claiming to represent fishermen and water-users besides surfers, and this has caused a lot of outrage among socal fisherman who feel that they are being disenfranchised by misrepresentation.

Talk:Curvilinear coordinates

message: For someone who doesn't already know what curvilinear coordinates are, the intro is confusing, especially the second sentence:
# The article should mention at the very beginning that each point will have its own coordinate system, since this is what curvilinear coordinates are about in the first place (i. e. curvilinear coordinate systems are local coordinate systems).
# It is unclear how the mentioned transformation can lead to the curvilinear coordinates (it does by differentiation).
# If the local coordinate systems for all points are defined by a single function in this way, local invertibility is not enough; it needs to be a differentiable transformation and the total derivative needs to be invertible at every point.
# It sounds like the local coordinate system at a point P was to be used to get a coordinate representation of the point P itself, while in most application the curvilinear coordinates are only useful if the coordinate system at the point P is used to represent a vector different from P, for example the value f(P) of some function f.
I will slightly rewrite that part of intro unless there are objections to any of these points.

message: It looks like someone tried to change from the more tradition \vec b_i=\partial \vec r/\partial q^i to a seemingly more consistent \vec h_i = \partial \vec r/\partial q^i, so that its magnitude is h_i .   However the fact that b^i is also used (for the reciprocal basis) means that you would also need an h^i=1/h_i, which is not consistent with the literature.  Thus I feel this new notation is confusing.  Also, this notation of \vec h_i replaced \vec b_i in some, but not all sections of the article, further compounding the confusion, see, for example: Covariant and contravariant bases.

message: Alternate as an adjective means "every other", just as the verb to alternate means to go back and forth between two positions. Alternative means a second choice or option. It's a very common mistake, to the point where the casual reader is not aware of the incorrect usage. (Check out alternate, which I haven't edited.) Alternative is the correct word to use in the article, since Master Quest is an optional version of Ocarina of Time, not every second version. Changing this to an incorrect word to avoid two v sounds in a row is just silly. --Pagrashtak 04:49, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, "alternate" can also hold the meaning "constituting an alternative", according to Merriam-Webster.( And for that matter, "alternative" can mean "occurring or succeeding by turns".)
