message: Given a mass of 1.1 times that of our sun, it's simple enough to calculate the (hypothetical) total carats: 10^34.
In short scale, that would be ten billion trillion trillion (as edited).  In long scale, it would be one thousand billion trillion, so I suppose one could put the exponent in paranthesees to avoid confusion.  If anyone feels like it.

thread_title:  Rename article? 

message: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BPM_37093 says BPM 37093 has the following stated mass and radius: Mass of BPM 37093 = 1.1 * 2e30 kg or 2.2e30 kg or 2.2e33 grams and Radius of BPM 37093 = 0.0057 * 6.957e8 meters = 3966 km 
SO, using these two figures from Wiki, I get 8.42e6 grams per cm cubed density, which seems to be non-physical. I'm assuming Wiki is wrong unless I've erred but I've done this calculation too many times to doubt myself.
I hope this issue can be resolved simply and that Wiki will rectify it. RFRules (talk) 22:26, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

message: It appears that somebody removed some sentences from my modification stating "original research". The sentence explained that Jean Bart was still very famous in Northern France... Well... I'm afraid that there is nothing original there, it's more than common knowledge. It's not as if the statue in front of the city hall was his. Well, the harbor is named after him too. Inhabitants still sing songs to praise him (kneeling in front of the statue)...

OM and Officine Meccaniche have been separate articles. I have written a new entry just now under "OM (Officine Meccaniche)".  Outside Italy, OM is better known and I feel "Officine Meccaniche" sounds generic for those who are unfamiliar with this company. I think the two previous entries should be completely deleted. Redirection to the new entry, however, seems to be helpful.

thread_title: Links in headings

message: There is a little... well, not such a little problem with the sortability of the lists. Namely, the lists can't be sorted by any other criteria, but in alphabetical order of the countries, since there is no way to by-pass the "rowspan problem" In other words, by default, the arenas in the lists are grouped by country and sub-grouped by the city, but if you try to sort them in any other way, they become scattered and the tables become unreadable. It's a bug that can be fixed easily, by removing rowspan number and listing the country in every row, but I don't have the will to do that, so, if there is someone willing, I'd appreciate that.--Vitriden (talk) 03:52, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

I also claim that Slashdot people usually are smelly and eat their

Furthermore, I claim that anybody that hasn't noticed by now that I'm an

Finally, it's clear that I'm not only the smartest person around, I'm also
