message: I heard about this guy's X-Prize donations, but when I lookd him up here, found out all about his other stuff. Not only that, but a Doctorate, and an officer of the order of Canada? I think I've got some kinda new role model or something here :) Geology isn't really a passion for me now, but hey, wealth is wealth, and he's sending it where it's needed.

Talk:Trencher (machine)

message: I'm removing the description of the Jardinator because I believe it is better classified as a bucket-wheel excavator as opposed to a trencher.  I'm using the definition that a trencher is a tool for creating a ditch or trench; earthmovers like the Jardinator that move earth for other purposes (e.g. surface mining) don't strictly fit this definition even though I have sometimes heard them called trenchers. —Kymacpherson 14:00, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

This article is exemplary of the extremely poor quality of scholarship demonstrated in most of the articles related to Jewish topics, including articles concerning the Biblical subjects. I only slightly modified the article to fix clear absurdities that were made up out of thin air. As with most articles to which I have made contributions, I have left alone most of the poorly sourced and poorly analyzed mess to let serious students know not to rely on Wikipedia.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yosefsimcha (talk • contribs) 20:10, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Merge E6 and E47

message: When the page was moved from E06 to E6, the standard Wiki way of preventing broken links was used. But this isn't enough - since the route's name is E6 and not E06, we should avoid "E06" in our articles. Just linking to European route E06 might be enough for wikipedia's internal consistency (it redirects here to E6), but is not sufficient - we should avoid reader confusion by never speaking about a "E06" road (except in historical and other contexts of course).

Other artist discographies don't list the B-sides, such as

The revised listing is easier to read. Plus, the Grass Roots aren't considered a seminal artist like Elvis or the Beatles.
If you want the B-sides included, add them yourself to the better formatted version.
I'm therefore planning to revert the edit back to the chart listing a previous editor posted.

message: Some of the sections of the article (the character bios on T.J Hawkins and Karl Hahn, as well as the info on MERGE and TRIO) could stand to be trimmed/condensed somewhat.

message: I just tagged this article for fansite. There seems to be huge amounts of detail into the nuances of the characters, and hardly any regarding the series impact to the real world. Any actual content about the plot of the novels themselves seems to be only incidental to exposition about the characters.

Talk:R-60 (missile)

message: The article describes the missile as being fitted with proximity fuses. As I understand it, most air-to-air missiles are designed to detonate within close range of an enemy aircraft, rather than hitting it directly. The article also describes later versions of the missile being weighted with depleted uranium in order to improve penetration (the provided source is down, but there is an admittedly crappy source here, from Newsmax). Are later versions designed to strike the enemy aircraft, and if this is not the case, what function does the depleted uranium serve?

Given that pilots have complained that the AIM-9 lacks "hitting power" in the past, the tiny size of the R-60 makes one wonder at how effective it would be. I've seen it pointed out that its 6.6lb explosive charge is not much more than a large autocannon shell (although admittedly not many autocannon shells use expanding-rod warheads). I'm not saying that it's a useless missile, just that it seems that the article would remark on this fact, given that it is by far the smallest aerial guided missile out there..45Colt 20:50, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
