Talk:Rurouni Kenshin

message: From , 2019: "... reverse blade sword...for the longest time, this was nothing more than a legend... recently in Chiro City (in the Chiba Prefecture of Japan), a sword with dragon carvings was discovered in an old family storage shelter ... the sword that was found was only 11 inches, and the blade itself was only 8.6 inches, so it really counts more as a kogatana than a full katana, but it does have the reverse blade aspect, which is unheard of in anything the size of a kogatana. Short tanto (dagger) blades like the kubikiri have also been designed with a reverse blade, and used in Japanese history, but they were extremely rare, and usually did not have a point. While it may not be the full length of an actual Sakabato...perhaps, there is more to the story of Rurouni Kenshin  " 89.201.201.113 (talk) 01:48, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  maybe not entirely fictional ? 

message: I've been talking with Xexerss about the most suitable cover for the infobox. While I like the one currently used, I feel it would be better to use one where the characters have their eyes open. Shueisha offers:
*http://www.shueisha.co.jp/books/items/contents.html?jdcn=08871499871499315501 this version of the first cover which not only has both Kenshin and Kaoru with their eyes open but also prominently shows Kenshin's sakabato which is a quite prominent item in the series. There are other versions of the same cover but the format is not vertical but instead horizontal, making it harder to recognize. Any ideas? Tintor2 (talk) 22:39, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I think either tankobon cover would be appropriate. I don't mind the current Volume 28 cover, but if you think the Volume 1 works better, I won't contest it. GhostStalker (Got a present for ya! / Mission Log) 03:37, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

text: The issue that I have with the first volume cover of the digital release (as I stated on my talk page before) is that it doesn't include the Jump Comics imprint logo, and the fact that obviously it's not the cover of the first edition, which is preferred by WP:BOOKS. The cover image of the second volume, featuring the four lead characters, seems appropriate to me  (although I don't have issues with the current 28th volume cover). I don't know what would be the best criteria to choose. Xexerss (talk) 03:50, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Injective cogenerator

message: User:Charles Matthews This rather isolated page is densely written, and really needs to be taken in hand.

The example about cogenerators in a category of topological spaces doesn't quite fit the definition, as the category doesn't have a zero object. AxelBoldt 23:35, 3 Feb 2004 (UTC)

message: The statement Assuming one has a category like that of abelian groups, one can in fact form direct sums of copies of G until the morphism f: Sum(G) →H is surjective makes no sense.  What are G and H supposed to be here?  Is it supposed to be true for any G and H (which it is not)?  Is G supposed to be a generator?  Do we know that the category has a generator?  Most importantly, what is the reference?  Lichfielder (talk) 08:43, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Abelian group case 

message: The article does not actually provide a definition for the concept of injective cogenerator.
The definitions given for generator and cogenerator objects in categories having a zero object (as such an unnecessary restriction) are incorrect.
They would imply that \mathbb{Z}/2 is both a generator and a cogenerator in the category of modules over the ring \mathbb{Z}/4, while in fact it is neither.
The formulation of the section titled "In general topology" is vague and incorrect. The closed interval [0,1] of the real line is indeed a cogenerator in the category of completely regular spaces, and the same goes for the open and half-open intervals. However, no interval is injective as an object of this category, since there exists a continuous map into it defined on the circle minus a point which cannot be extended continuously to the entire circle.
It seems best to replace the entire article.

:In particular, note that because Internet Explorer overwrites certain Windows system files, it is usually not possible to reinstall Windows after upgrading Internet Explorer.

Talk:Wadden Sea

message: Is Wadden Sea really the common name in English for all of the area? I would assume it is appropriate for the Dutch part as a translation of Waddenzee. But it seems a bit odd to use a semi-Dutch term when it comes to the Wattenmeer (German) and Vadehavet (Danish). --Sasper 02:24, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it seems Wadden Sea is a well-established name in English. A lot of traditional placenames in the English language are semi-foreign and a confusion of forms, so there is nothing odd in that. I searched in the Library of Congress catalogue and I found a publication by a Danish biologist from 1951 using the word "Waddensea" and several ones written by Dutch authors ("Wadden Sea") from the 1950s and onwards. Since the 1970s or 1980s the term has been common for both Dutch, Danish and German publications in English. --Sasper (talk) 11:55, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Page protection request 

message: although the article lead states that 3061 games were released for the console, i can't seem to find a reliable source supporting this.  in fact, as of this writing, the targeted "List of PlayStation games (A–L)" article states that there are 4105 games in wikipedia's list of games for the console (which spans two articles).  the article body had actually stated that 7918 games were released, before this number was  from the article about a week ago, apparently because that value counted releases of a game in different regions as different games.  since there appears to be disagreement on exactly how many games were released for the console, would it be better to avoid giving an exact number?  for example, "A total of 3,061 PlayStation games were released" could be replaced with "Thousands of PlayStation games were released".i am also unsure about the accuracy of the value of "967 million" in the lead.  this doesn't seem to be supported by the article body, which mentions the value of "962 million" instead.  note that the cited source is actually from sony itself, and the number is based on sales up to and including the first quarter of 2007.  would rewording the statement to use an approximation be more prudent here as well?  one possibility is to replace "967 million units" with "nearly a billion game units".  note that i added "game" in my suggestion to more clearly distinguish game units from console units.  dying (talk) 12:59, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
