 the mostly popular principle is V-Sorb 2800 static volumetric nitrogen adsorption principle
The V-Sorb 2800 is a commercial instrument.  The neutrality of this statement is disputed.

message: Has anyone thought about including the one-point-measuring method on the page?
It saves conducting several experiments to determine Va for a single sample. Instead, the following approximation is used:
Vm = Va * (1-(p/p0))
This approximation may be used if the constant C is much larger than 1.

message: The current definition of "P and P0  are the equilibrium and the saturation pressure of adsorbates at the temperature of adsorption,..." seems to be inverse of what it should be, i.e. P - saturation pressure, P0 - eq. pressure.

message: According to the article "Namahage in Japanese means blister."
Not according to my dictionary it doesn't. Not even close.
The kanji used for Namahage are 生剥げ .  The first on it's own means 'life, genuine, birth' and (I think) 'fresh'. The second means 'come off, peel, fade, discolour'.
Blister can be sokomame, mame, houshin, mizubukure or odeki.

thread_title:  Ray Allen's shot is now "The Shot" 

message: This is one of those things in which you're going to get a different description of what happened depending upon who you ask. A Jordan or Bulls fan is going probably call it a great play from start to finish, while a Cavaliers fan may say "he pushed off", " he ran into" with the implication being that Jordan committed an offensive foul that wasn't called. The best thing to do in my opinion is try to keep the language as neutral as possible and describe the basic physical movements of the play without any puffery or implication of an uncalled foul being committed. This is why I undid changes made in June 2015 with this edit. Clarification is fine, but unsupported subjective interpretation is not.
At the same time, if there was controversy regarding whether a foul should've been called which received coverage in the US national sports media, then that can be added supported by citations to reliable sources. Local media from Chicago or Cleveland probably should be used carefully since it may be more of a case of editorializing than critical commentary, but any official statements from the NBA regarding the play (if the NBA did that back then like it occasionally does now) might be worth mentioning if such statements can be supported by citations to reliable sources. -- Marchjuly (talk) 23:48, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

message: This article was once nominated for deletion, mostly because it's the only one for any of the roughly 120 US-Canada border crossings.  Probably the right solution is to write one for all of them, but that is quite an undertaking.  Some articles exist for international bridges and other edifices located at the border, but so far the only other US border crossing articles are for US-Mexico crossings.

thread_title:  Free Label 

message: I just added the tag to the page; here's my rationale for merging: Template: Infobox Education in the United States and Template: Infobox HighSchool are both very descriptive and adequate infoboxes. However, they are largely the same and it causes a lot of confusion, not to mention inconsistency, when editors use one or the other irregularly. Template: Infobox Education in the United States has considerably more descriptive and appearance options and is more attractive, as well. Merging the best of the two templates would remove the inconsistency and create an overall better infobox.
I thought it would be a good idea to propose this, rather than just carry it out, since both templates are so widely used and important within school articles. Tserton 03:29, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line

message: Opening on June 14 this year, Zōshigaya Station (Tokyo Metro) is being or has been constructed directly underneath Kishibojin-mae Station. Neither articles have been created, but an idea would be to create just one for the two because of the shared location. Such an article may be titled, for example, Kishibojin-mae and Zōshigaya Stations. This will be in line with standard practice of having just one train station article for one location. For example, Shinjuku Station is just one article when in fact it is a stop for several different lines. Confusingly, by the way, the station after Kishibojin-mae on the Toden line is also called Zōshigaya Station (Toden). —Tokek (talk) 22:11, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Comments

message: I've reverted a series of good-faith edits that added a statement to the effect that the Niobrara flows through 0.12 miles of South Dakota before entering the Missouri.
First and foremost, we need citations for this: not just "I looked at the map", but some kind of official document.  The map may not be accurate: for instance, I just looked at the USGS topo map at mapper.acme.com, and it shows a clearly-defined Nebraska-SD border running north of Goat Island, in the Missouri between Yankton and Vermillion.  In fact, the status of Goat Island wasn't resolved until 2016 (, ), and the resolution involved turning it over to the National Park Service rather than assigning it to either state or partitioning it between them.  Point is that the state boundary isn't as clearly defined as it looks on the Google map; and complicating things, the point at which the Niobrara enters the Missouri undoubtedly varies with the level of the latter river.  Without citations from some kind of very official source, we shouldn't include this.
Even if we can document that it's really, officially the case that the Niobrara runs through a fraction of a mile of South Dakota, a detailed explanation of that shouldn't be in the lead section, which is supposed to be a summary of the most pertinent facts in the article.  Put it in the body of the text, with citation(s). Ammodramus (talk) 20:30, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
