Talk:Scott domain

message: I wanted to point out that this explanation
"Obviously, such a supremum only exists (i.e., makes sense) provided X does not contain inconsistent information; hence the domain is directed and bounded complete, but not all suprema necessarily exist."
seems confused w.r.t the original paper of Dana Scott, Outline of a Mathematical Theory of Computation, 1970. In the original paper, every subset X of D has a supremum. 
The supremum T of a domain D is described as an overdetermination, such that for x,y in D, x U y = T intuitively means that x and y are inconsistent with each other. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:b07:644e:c37f:fdeb:ef8b:6c7f:4da1 (talk • contribs) 23:04, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Now I don't remember everything I once knew about domains, but I can be quite clear that the definitions didn't come from a 1970 paper, which incidentally I haven't read. Denotational semantics as a field did not spring fully formed from the mind of Dana Scott in 1970, so it's unsurprising that the definitions there are different. Rather the definitions here came from a book, from the "Cambridge Tracts in Theoretical Computer Science" series, with the teal cover. I think it was Mathematical Theory of Domains by Stoltenberg-Hansen, Lindström & Griffor, from 1994. There "Scott domain" means "algebraic bounded-complete dcpo", a structure defined precisely so as to get rid of the inconsistent suprema. Specifically, it does not require that all suprema exist, only that "has an upper bound" is equivalent to "has a least upper bound". Hairy Dude (talk) 01:07, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

message: Hi User:Hoang1032006, thank you for your work on Tungsten trioxide. You have included a figure of WO3 as a monomer, :File:Tungsten-trioxide-(monomer)-3D-balls.png. Do you have any literature on the structure of this form, because it indicates double-bonds between tungsten and the oxides? Also, the compound is a solid, with a crystal structure (shown in the article) that does not feature the WO3 monomer (but WO6 octahedra). So, unless you have a good reference for the monomer, I would remove this file from the article. Furthermore, please keep the lead of the article shorter - the reactions should be in the body of the article, the start is only for the most important infos included in the article below.

Talk:Francis, Duke of Teck

message: *It is incorrect to call him "Prince Francis, Duke of Teck". This is an incorrect transference of British usage to a German title. Prior to becoming Duke, Franz was "Fürst von Teck". Although this is translated in English as "Prince von Teck", it was not the dynastic "Prinz" but was, rather, a title of German nobility, and as such ranked below "Herzog (Duke) von Teck". Styling him as "Prince Francis, Duke of Teck" is wrong because 1. he never used that style himself, nor was he properly known as such in England or Germany, and 2. it is improper, exactly as if the Marquess of Cambridge were to be promoted to Duke of Cambridge and proceeded to style himself "Marquess Francis, Duke of Cambridge". The ducal title superceded and "hid" the princely title, save for his issue. Queen Victoria's gift to him of the style of "Highness" did not convert Teck into a British royal dukedom, nor did it change the terms on which the Wurttemberg dukedom was granted.Lethiere 13:51, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: "An" in title

message: I would disagree with the synopsis of the father/daughter relationship; preceding the whole batteries/cooking debacle which appears to show dan ackroyd's character as out of touch with his daughter, is a scene in which alyson hannigan's character tells her father that she is now wearing a bra. Note that he doesn't fight her on the issue, he trusts her and accepts his girl is growing up and nothing he can do will change it. When she comes to him later talking about eating batteries, he interprets her apparently genuine concerns as displaced concern for their relationship; albeit wrongly. The strength of their relationship (5 years without him having a romantic interest in his life; that's a lot of quality time) shows later in the film, when she reneges on a deal with Celeste in order to stop her father from being hurt.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.9.33.173 (talk) 00:06, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Rawdon Billing

message: The hill is a popular place for locals to walk dogs or just go for a stroll and take in the natural environment as well as stupendous views down both the Wharfe and Aire Valleys.
The Billing was used as a quarry in 1800’s and was used as a base for carving stone during the building of Leeds Town Hall, which was to be famously opened by Queen Victoria in 1858.
Since the quarry's closure a few years later The Billing lay as we know it today, this was all until the outbreak of war. Newly built Leeds Bradford airport was a prime target, therefore The Billing acted as a very good blockade. Old quarry stones as well as purpose designed concrete blocks were used to hide gun men positioned on the hill to shoot down any suspicious aircraft. 
Many of the remains of bunkers from the war can still be seen on The Billing today. We have a hint that the devices were successful as there are reports of a spitfire crash close to BaytonLane during World War two. By the end of the war The Billing became dormant once again and developed into the landmark that we know and love today. With help of thebilling.co.uk and ‘The Billing Conservation Society’ the hill looks to have a bright and illustrious future ahead of it.  
Walking on The Billing…
There are many designated footpaths on The Billing and it is a wonder slice of nature in urban surroundings. Please take care when walking on The Billing especially during the summer months when cattle are grazing. Please make sure you keep to the footpaths and take your litter home. 
The View from The Billing... 
The view from The Billing is one of the best in the area. In one direction you can look down the Aire valley towards Leeds in one direction and Shipley in the other. On a clear day you can see the outline of Ferrybridge and Drax power stations and Emley Mast.  
In the other direction, on a crisp day you can spot the small outline of York Minster, but only if you are very luckey. The view down the Wharfe valley towards Ilkley and Beamsley Beacon is also a sight to behold.
It would be a good idea to add some of this information to the article, particularly if there are some references that can be cited.

message: The paragraph detailing Pomponia's relatives needs some backing up. "Asinia Pollionis filia" is Latin for "Asinia, daughter of Pollio" - where does this come from? What is the source for Pomponius Graecinus marrying Asinius Pollio's daughter? --Nicknack009 14:58, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: There is a Asinia Pollionis f(ilia) Asini Celeris known to us from an inscription found in Tusculum (CIL XIV 259). It is possible that she was originally a daughter of Gaius Asinius Pollio (consul in 23 AD), but was adopted by her uncle Servius Asinius Celer. Maybe she is to be identified with Asinia Agrippina, (another) daughter of Asinius Celer. However, there is no direct indication in our sources for a marriage between Pomponius Graecinus and an Asinia, except for the passage of Tacitus mentioning Pomponia Graecina morning over the death of Iulia Drusi Caesaris. From this passage it is derived that Pomponia was a relative of her and therefore would be a descendant of Vipsania Agrippina and Gaius Asinius Gallus. The mother of Pomponia (, F.O.S. nr. 640.) is mentioned in Ovids lettres to Graecinus (if of course she is his daughter!), but her name is not mentioned. Therefore we can't compare names.
