Talk:Buck–boost converter

message: Why are the equations for \Delta I_L_off diffrent in these two articles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_converter#Continuous_mode and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck%E2%80%93boost_converter#Continuous_mode)?

message: thumb | Fig. 1
This is supposed to be an inverting buck-boost converter, yet in the schematic, the polarity on the input and output sides is the same. On the off-cycle, the inductor current flows in the same direction as on the on-cycle, so the polarity has to be opposite. This is very confusing for anybody trying to learn this stuff. --Rhombus (talk) 18:43, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I assume you are referring to “Fig. 1”, where Vo is measured relative to the same bottom rail as Vi is measured. The circuit does actually invert the voltage, but that will just affect the sign of Vo. However this seems to be a common misunderstanding; see #Equation of contention above.

thread_title:  Principle of operation 

message: The second last equation in the section "Continuous Mode" states: V_o / V_i = - D / (1 - D). This is correct. When I solved this equation for D, purely algebraic, I get: D = V_o / (V_o - V_i). So in the denominator we have a minus instead of a plus sign. Or am I wrong? I am learning this topic for school.

Talk:Kilt accessories

message: The only material imported from the Kilt article which was heavily edited (as contrasted with expanded) was the section on underwear. In the original article, this occupied between 20 and 25 percent of the entire article. In the imported material, it was almost 2/3 of the total. Even after the additional material on other more substantive matters regarding kilt accessories was added, the amount of space devoted to what is basically a trivial discussion (or even largely unverifiable "private research") was excessive to the point where it could fairly be said to not conform to NPOV policy.
The photo which used to "adorn" that section belongs on the Uncyclopedia.

Talk:Firm (disambiguation)

message: This page originally said that the band that wrote "Arthur Daley E's Alright" in 1982 was also the band that wrote "Star Trekkin'" in 1987.  I don't think this is necessarily true, from what little I've been able to turn up.  Also, the fact that a more major band (the one we have the article The Firm (band) for) showed up in between 1982 and 1987 seems to me to make it likely that the earlier band was defunct at the time the Page/Rodgers band was formed. If anyone can turn up a source that says they're the same band, please re-merge the entries. --TreyHarris 19:40, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Null (computer programming)

message: What are these sentences supposed to mean? Could someone give an example? The null string is not the same as the content of a string variable set to a null value. Null strings do not create 3-valued logic, in contrast to null values in strings. If you are referring to, for example, Java, when you say String s = null, that sets the reference s to null. There is no String object. -- Schapel (talk) 22:14, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The sentences have been changed to something that seems more reasonable. However, the sentence Null strings do not create 3-valued logic seems wrong. a.equals(b) can be true, false, or result in a NullPointerException in Java, depending on the value of a in Java. That's not exactly the same as 3-valued logic, but there are 3 different results. -- Schapel (talk) 22:54, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I am thinking more about strings in a database. A string field can contain a null string or have the null value. A null string is perfectly defined and does not give rise to 3-valued logic, being equal to only itself and unequal to any other string. A null value in a string field S makes the value undefined: the comparisons S = any string and S <> any string are both false. −Woodstone (talk) 04:20, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Tim Vigil

message: Tim Vigil isn't major (he works in horror/mature illustration à la Frazetta, and some comics), but quite notable enough in the comics business. Notable enough that:
* He has an IMdb entry , because his graphic novel was adapted by no less than Brian Yuzna 
* Most of his solicited merchandises (comics, posters, etc.) prominently feature his name as a prefix, because it sells.
* His name is among those acquired by eBay as a Google AdWords, too.
Solicitations excerpted from Diamond's commercial catalog Previews:
* (solicited in 1999) ART OF TIM VIGIL DARK UTOPIA #6 -- For 14 years, Tim Vigil has been producing amazing impromptu art on the world-wide comic convention circuit. During that time, hundreds (if not thousands) of original pieces have found their way into the eager hands of avid fans. This art, coveted by its owners, has essentially been lost to the public eye… until now. Dark Utopia #6 is proud to present an entire edition featuring the unearthing of some of these lost treasures. It's cover-to-cover ink, lead, blood, and sweat in a Vigil art event no one ever thought they'd see!
* (solicited in 2002) TIM VIGIL'S WEBWITCH #1 -- The wait is over! Tim Vigil is ready to unleash an all-new masterpiece, 5 years in the making!
* (solicited in 2005) TIM VIGIL'S 80'S LADIES BARWARE SET -- Tim Vigil inspires this suave barware tribute to the 80's. The "80's Ladies" set includes four groovin' cobalt blue glasses each hand etched with a hip chick on front, and Vigil's 80's ladies logo on back. All glasses include a certificate of authenticity hand-signed and numbered by the etcher.

Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Good articles/General

message: With the Good Article standards, what do we do about sources? the sources can't very well be quoted with video clips from the game, do we just ignore it in terms of aspects of gameplay? I'd like to give 1 or 2 articles good article status but I don't know if they meet the criteria or not. Homestarmy 19:59, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It would be possible to reference critical appreciation of the game (game reviews in magazines and online can be referenced in the standard way). Some aspects of gameplay might be tougher. There are always the game manuals. For some other games there are "complete guides", cheatbooks and various other texts available that could be referenced accordingly. Unfortunately some things are difficult to reference in that way. For instance, AFAIK it is possible to complete Deus Ex without the player actually killing another game character. I don't know this because I did it myself, or because I've ever seen anyone else do it, or because I found an official manual declaring it to be possible, or because there is an interview with a developer (another possible citable source!) declaring it to be possible. I know it because it got discussed on an online forum linked to by the article's talk page (if I rememeber correctly!) in which one member declares how he did it and several disbelieving members confirmed they got it to work.

replies: text: Surely too extreme. I would agree with removing the genre fiction examples, though: writing sequences of novels in a given universe or around a particular character is the default, rather than anything very interesting. I'd agree to cutting back the list to "literary fiction" as it is generally understood. Then I think the way forward would be table format, chronological order, references, critical comments.

The first numeral of a BIN is not sufficient to determine the issuing bank.  While the article attempted to do a good job explaining the differences, it is not complete.  The 13 digit exception does not apply to MC and Visa.  Not all account numbers beginning with 3 are AMEX.  The BIN ranges described for AMEX are inaccurate.  Diners' Club International uses multiple BIN ranges that begin with 3, and were ignored from this article completely.  Combine that with the many non MC/Visa/Disc/Amex/DCI BINs available, inspection of the the full BIN should be described and required.

No. The BIN database is very large and it is constantly changing. BIN tables are used for routing and determining the issuer of the card. Because of gift and other private cards, there may be duplicate owners of cards in a specific BIN range. Additionally, card numbers that contain letters in addition to digits are beginning to be seen.
yes, just found "http://www.mars-soft.net/banksbase.htm"
