Talk:Galaxy effective radius

message: The information in the page is so out of date, words just fail me. 
These papers on this were published around 1969. Whoever introduced this text here has absolutely zero idea of how or why effective radius means. The graphic regarding galaxies shown here is irrelevant. 
The ideas behind this date back to the idea of the theoretical estimating of mass distribution. It relies on finding a radius-magnitude relationship. The concept is to describe the mass density / density profile out to the edges of the galaxy, to the theoretical dark matter halo. Reff is represented in arcsec, and sometimes relies, in modern times, on tracers using globular or planetary nebulae. I.e NGC 5128 tracers is 300 arcsec / 6 arcmin, for example. The galaxy is 25.7×20.0 arcmin, or roughly five times larger. Hence, describing galaxies by there half-light diameters is just nuts. Worse is that you have to also know the surface brightness, calculated from the magnitude, then assume the distribution of the light, follows some general law (which has differing values based on some average, that is different between astronomical types), and somehow out pops some diameter.  
Please if you know what this about say so, else stop mucking around with things you don't understand. IMO. it calls either deletion or starting completely from scratch.
:Q. Do spiral galaxies have effective radii? (Why doesn't the article say so?)
:Q. What is the distribution form of a density profile of an elliptical galaxy including the dark-matter halo. 
In the end, why so complicated. Foe most uses, the diameter is based on the RC3, UGC or PGC galaxy catalogues gives diameters based on photographic emulsions. Known the magnitude limit, sets the galaxy size, which is based on the exposure time. This determines the apparent size of the galaxy. Knowing that, means you determine, from the distance, the true scale of the galaxy. Please forget this half-radius stuff on elliptical galaxies. Arianewiki1 (talk) 06:02, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

message: This should probably just be redirected somewhere else, but I'm not sure where. It appears that the phenomenon described is merely radiant heating of a sample to the point of incandescence.

Talk:Associated Provincial Picture Houses Ltd v Wednesbury Corporation

message: Right now, Wednesbury unreasonableness just redirects to this article about the case. As the concept of Wednesbury unreasonableness isn't just about this case (future cases have built on it like in GCHQ [1984] where Lord Diplock referred to it as "irrationality", etc.), and so I think it deserves its own article. There is already an article for Wednesbury unreasonableness in Singapore law which does a good job - but we need one from a more international perspective (e.g. including perspectives on English law and how it is now being increasingly challenged/replaced with the doctrine of proportionality).
As of now, as both articles are merged, I will put the Administrative Law infobox in this article.

message: It would be interesting to have some information on the long term consequences for the cinema following this judgement.
Did Wednesbury Council ever change their decision?
Did any of Wednesbury's successor councils ever change the decision?
Is the cinema still operational?
If not, did the ruling have any influence on the decision to close the cinema?

thread_title: What Happened Next?

message: I have changed the reference to English courts citing this case to UK courts. I am minded to alter the article further to elaborate that, whilst not binding in Scotland per se, the ruling has been followed north of the border and is certainly now incorporated by a long line of authority into Scots law. 
I am also somewhat concerned that the explanation of the ratio of the case is somewhat misleading. It is true that Wednesbury is referred to by the courts as authority for the proposition that only peculiarly unreasonable decisions will face judicial sanction. However, it would be more accurate to state that the case is cited as the leading authority which establishes that the judiciary may interfere with the decisions of administrative bodies on the basis of their substance. It is secondary to this that the ruling defines the scope of that judicial power to be restricted to cases of only the utmost unreasonableness.

Talk:William H. Emory

message: I came across this person in a magazine article and checked out Wiki ... I have written a number of engineering bio articles and have had them "critiqued" for references ... So by that standard, this piece is missing a lot of inline citation ...it seems that the detail is there but still ...I think one of the strengths of Wikipedia is the references/citations ... This article should have more citations ... There are a number of good sources for this type of biography... The reader may peruse one of several articles on these West Point cartographers such as George Washington Whistler as an example. The article does give an good number of material at the bottom but is not working into the article...  
I did however add a few references that supported a recent article on this gentleman and will come back around to working into the article ... I also added the civil engineering references and categories ... 
I don't have the heart to flag it with one of the "needs work" banners... But I will add this to my list of articles to work on ...

message: Nostalgia phone, Still have my Nokia 3410 with all the buttons all worn down.You can't get it anymore in shops so it should really be in the past tense here.
The Nokia 1100 and 1101, with comparable features are still sold (at half the price)- I suppose they survive in the modern mobile market because they are lighter and also the battery lasts three times as long as the 3410,(they also have a very useful torch feature bright enough to read with. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.142.53.209 (talk) 17:35, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: If the 3410 is the successor to the 3310 as the article states, then it's unlikely that it was released in early 2001. The 3310 was released in the final quarter of 2000 (according to its article, which sounds about right from my recollection) and I bought my 3310 in mid-2001. If the 3410 had been released in early 2001, it would certainly have replaced the 3310 (a mere 3-6 months after the 3310's release?!) if it *was* the latter's replacement- by the time I got round to buying one.
(I appreciate that this personal comment does not constitute a citable "fact", merely that it provides ground for believing the original uncited comment is dubious and requires a reliable reference).
Also, the 3410 user manual states copyright 2002-2003. The linked version is revised, so I suspect the original may be older, but this still implies a 2002 release date.
All in all, "2001" needs evidence or it should be removed.

Talk:Rally Norway

message: As would seem logical (being in line with the broad approach taken by the RAC Rally/Rally GB and 1000 Lakes/Rally Finland articles, for example), I have redirected 'Norweigian Rally' (sp?) here, an event which I presume must have been some kind of distant precursor to the current Rally Norway, as the Tom Trana article, for example, records him as having won such an event in the 1960s. Not having kept up my usual WRC anorak standards over the last few years, what with encroaching 'real life' committments, I can't remember whether this is the first time Norway has ever held a WRC round... is it? And regardless of whether it is, are there any specialists out there who can flesh out this article with information on the supposed pre-2006 manifestations of 'Rally Norway'? Was the 'old'/'pre-2006' event, say, a high-coefficient ERC round? MRacer (talk) 21:40, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

message: The name Dorr Felt in its simplest form might at first appear logical, except that without his middle initial "E." –for  "Eugene"– the name is almost unrecognisable for those of us who still remember the ubiquitous use of Comptometers, and the Felt & Tarrant Mfg Co, and the later Comptometer Corporation, (with some small offices still using these machines into the mid-1980s to the early 1990s).  
Felt's habitual use of his middle initial Dorr E. Felt  was without exception in business, (and to such an extent that it led some, who had merely heard the name spoken, to think that it was either Dorry Felt  or Dorrie Felt, (and possibly even a woman; a diminutive of Dorothy.) 
I might point out that the article on F. Scott Fitzgerald is so named, and neither Francis Fitzgerald  nor Scott Fitzgerald, because the writer was only ever known as F. Scott Fitzgerald.   So too with Dorr E. Felt,  who was never known as either  Dorr Felt or Dorr Eugene Felt, but always Dorr E. Felt.   
I should therefore like to propose a name change to the article.
