Talk:Aldgate, South Australia

message: How can this place be both a town and an Adelaide suburb?  The cited source merely quotes a real-estate figure, someone who's an expert at selling property but not someone who's an expert in local government or political geography.  The phrase "town and suburb" sounds much more like a US meaning of suburb (i.e. a satellite town surrounding the big city) than the Australian sense.
The state government's suburb map has Aldgate marked as a suburb, but Angas Valley and Wynarka are treated likewise (as are remote locations like Olympic Dam), together with every other spot in the state.  (Apparently they're treated like the localities mentioned in Suburbs and localities (Australia).)  We really ought to have a citation from a reliable source, not merely a real-estate salesman, before proclaiming this an Adelaide suburb.  Nyttend (talk) 01:02, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: That source refers to Aldgate as a "Hills suburb", which leads me to wonder whether they were simply conflating Adelaide suburbs with Adelaide Hills suburbs. --Gronk Oz (talk) 04:16, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Local government areas of South Australia lists the Adelaide Hills LGA as being part of "Metropolitan Adelaide", which is supported by the LGA.SA government web site here.  So Aldgate is a suburb in the Adelaide Hills LGA, which in turn is in Adelaide Metro.  That sounds to me like it qualifies as being a suburb of Adelaide.--Gronk Oz (talk) 04:35, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Daylight (1996 film)

message: I found the extant synopsis to be overly specific in some places and overly vague in others. It also contains gross inaccuracies, e.g. there is nothing in the movie that proves that the Nord character is "a famous mountain climber." He is a CEO and a sports enthusiast. 
I have seen this movie many dozens of times. I own the DVD. Here is my proposed synopsis. If anybody has the gonads to paste it over to the main page, go ahead. If not, I may myself.
*****
Daylight is a story about an explosion in a New York City tunnel, and the ensuing escape of some survivors. A carful of diamond thieves madly rushes through the tunnel to avoid the police. The driver loses control and crashes into a trio of trucks illegally carrying toxic and explosive chemical waste. The resulting explosion seals shut both ends of the below-water tunnel, and poisons the remaining air. Kit Latura (Sylvester Stallone), a former chief of the NYC Emergency Medical Service, decides that he might rescue the survivors by entering the tunnel through a ventilation shaft. He descends harrowingly through the shaft and its fans into the tunnel but is unable to provide the survivors with a way out, as the fans cannot be shut down a second time. Things get worse: part of the ceiling collapses and Kit has to create another smaller explosion to keep the water from coming in. This helps, but, "I only slowed it down, nothing can stop it." They need more, and George (Stan Shaw), a tunnel cop, gives them a clue as to where some dry ground might be. They find it, but it doesn't stay dry for long. However, they find yet another passage to a room which has an exit that leads to a grate in the floor of a garage (which is evidently located at the end of a pier). Everybody still alive at this point makes it to daylight except for Kit and Madelyne (Amy Brenneman), who have missed their chance. Kit and Madelyne swim to the roof of the tunnel. Kit sets an explosion that, he hopes, will cause a "blowout," and it works. They both are driven through the roof of the tunnel, through the riverbed, to the surface, where they are immediately rescued.

Talk:Sha Wujing

message: This page describes Wujing as a sand-dragon, which I don't think is accurate.  In all the translations I've read he's just a water monster; the only animal I've read him being related to is a shark.  Describing a Japanese Kappa as a dragon is also a big stretch.  Also, the Mortal Kombat character seems to have no relationship to Wujing, as he is neither fat nor a drunkard.  Maybe the editor was thinking of Chu Pachieh/Wuneng (Pigsy).
AFAIK, he was only a human-based Yaoguai.
-
I agree whole-heartedly to the above. Sha Wu Jing is a water demon, not based on any animal whatsoever.
IMPORTANT: The reason I am adding links and not content is because the Wikipedia format does NOT allow me to organize the information in a manner that will make it much more easier for readers to read and comprehend. It is also useful if readers just want to skim through the upper parts to get to the information they want.
I have noted on the page that Sha Wujing has fairly clear antecedents in earlier works. It might be worthwhile to outline some of these earlier versions if that is not going beyond the scope of this article. ChinaStudent (talk) 10:06, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

message: Just a small question. Does Sha Wujing really know no transformation? Well there is some old saying that Sun Wukong knows 72 transformation, Zhu Bajie 36 and Sha Wujing 18. And if my memory serves me well, Sha Wujing transformed into a goose-keeper once. Just for discussion.Chrisliu (talk) 08:56, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Removed Mortal Kombat 

message: This entry has some major problems and with all due respect to the work already on display, it probably needs to be rebuilt from the ground up unless the original author(s) can provide citations throughout. Other thoughts: The entry should differentiate between SWJ as he appears in the Ming hundred-chapter novel, as he appears in earlier incarnations, and as he appears in later retellings of the narrative. The Ming novel should probably remain the focus. Primary source citations should include authoritative, scholarly editions of the novel in both Chinese and English. The best English edition to use would probably be Anthony C. Yu's four volume The Journey to the West (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1977-1983). A good option for the Chinese would be “Xiyou ji 西遊記” (Zhongguo gudian wenxue banhua xuanji 中国古典文学版画选集, Zhuan Xihua 傳惜华, ed. Shanghai renmin meishu chubanshe 上海人民出版社, 1981).

Talk:R-K Life History Theory

message: Ah, the article is already here; R/K selection theory, when I searched earlier I could not find it on wikipedia. Someone else should merge &/or redirect. My apologies. Nagelfar 04:34, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

message: This article is much more of a stub than R/K selection theory so should probably be merged into it.  That said, it doesn't really contain anything extra, so a redirect might be better.  The one extra thing it does introduce is attributing r-/K-selection to E. O. Wilson.  I've had a quick check and apparently it stems back to a book by Robert MacArthur and E.O. Wilson from the late 1960s ("The Theory of Island Biogeography"), which in turn stems from a joint paper of their's from 1963.  If no-one objects, I'll re-direct this article as suggested, and add this information about MacArthur and Wilson to R/K selection theory.  Cheers, --Plumbago 10:12, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've just tracked down the 1963 paper, but it contains nothing about r/K.  It's possible that the book does, but I've not got access to that to check.  Anyone care to clarify this?  --Plumbago 10:23, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Having now (finally) looked at Pianka (1970), it references MacArthur & Wilson's 1967 book as the source of r and K selection.

Talk:Soifon

message: This may be just a minor thing that is opinion, but my understanding of this is that it should either be the Japanese romanization "Soi Fon" or the Chinese "Sui Fong."

replies: text: I agree with Lunar's reasoning, but it seems that everyone so far has spelled it Soi Fong. There must be a reason for that - do you know it? I just looked at the manga and it doesn't seem like Soi Fong is written anywhere, but maybe I missed something. Please try to find out the reason why eveyone uses Soi Fong, if not, then we can probably change it, but IMO there needs to be input from more users. -- Ynhockey 20:49, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I know, the only reason for people be using Soi Fong is because they take her real lastname (Fong, in Fong Shaolin) and apply to the codename. But we know that's not the case, if the codename had a family name on it, Yoruichi would just call her "Soi", not "Soi Fong"... and, well, every official source that shows the romanization of the name (the games and S.O.U.L.s, the character book) use "Soifon", never Soi Fong. I really think the wrong romanization, even being popular, should not be used in Wikipedia. Oh, and sorry for eventual bad english, not my original language. Access Timeco 13:12, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

It's quite an odd claim to make about anyone without citing proof. In Googling around the only other references are pages that are now citing this anecdote on Wikipedia!

message: I looked up the subject of jettisoning munitions before landing, and everyone who sounds knowledgeable says that Navy pilots would never jettison expensive munitions like guided missiles just to land, unless there was an emergency. They frequently jettison dumb bombs, drop tanks and fuel, but never missiles (provided a standard loadout), and it largely has to do with the maximum safe landing weight of the aircraft, not the safety of the munition (although the powerful warheads of a 500lb bomb would do a lot more damage than any missile would, which helps give incentive to ditch those). So I don't understand the part about the safeing system "allowing them to land with unexpended ordinance". Perhaps the system makes it safer to land with these missiles, but they already routinely do it, so I don't see how it "allows them" to..45Colt 14:21, 30 March 2014 (UTC)
