Talk:Oulton Broad North railway station

message: I travelled down the line from Lowestoft to Ipswich recently, and I carefully observed the line as it passed the OB North area. 
It is just possible to briefly glimpse the extreme end of the very long north platform of the OB North station when the line splits into two. However this part of the platform is unused and heavily overgrown with grass and weeds. 
The line itself passes a considerable distance from OB North station, there is a modern housing estate between the two. To build another platform directly to the south of OB North you would have to demolish several houses. I think it would be difficult to build another platform even where the lines split as it would be a long walk from the road - I will have to have another look at this the next time I travel on that route. 
I shall probably alter the text of the article and remove the suggestion that another platform can be built.

:I used to work as a train driver on both Norwich - Lowestoft and Lowestoft - Ipswich routes. Oulton Broad North Junction where the line to Ipswich branches off is only about 100 yards from the platforms at Oulton Broad North station. (see link on Windows Live Maps)
:It would be technically possible to build another platform serving the Ipswich line if the (single) track was re-aligned to allow space due to the new development. The fact this has never been done in over 150 years (?) makes me wonder if there would be a demand for it.

thread_title:  Rail line passes too far away 

message: There's every chance, although I need to check, that the company that built the Lowestoft - Norwich line wasn't the same as the company that built the Lowestoft - Ipswich line, hence different stations.
OR
There were deliberatly two stations built in Oulton, so that communities in North & South Oulton both had a convenient station to get to Lowestoft. I imagine that at te time of the lines being built (1870s?) few people travelled to London and/or Norwich from places such as Oulton although this is bordering on guessing.

Category talk:Absinthe

message: Since Absinthe as a topic is apparently split into multiple articles, including Absinthe and Absinthe in popular culture, I created a new category Category:Absinthe.  This way all the articles about Absinthe can be indexed under one category.  The new category is a subcategory of Category:Alcoholic beverages and Category:Distilled beverages, meaning that "Absinthe" now appears as a subcategory on those instead of just a page.
Of course, if there's a dispute about the new category, feel free to say so, but it seemed like the logical way to index it.  Meanwhile, I'll check for more Absinthe related articles to include.  I recommend any discussion on the topic be handled here. Dugwiki 17:00, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I often find it puzzling and confusing when I'm trying to explain the difference between a sound stage and one that is used for silent films (a silent stage?) that isn't soundproofed.

thread_title: Moved from main article

message: Yesterday I replaced some cited material with a different version of events. The text I removed was
I see nothing in the cited Yelton reference about lobbying the state legislature to transfer the county seat to Gainesville. Per Yelton, the legislature in 1852 authorized a vote to choose a new county seat. I don't know when the route for the railroad was revealed, but the Florida Railroad was chartered a year later, in 1853, with construction beginning at Fernandina in 1855, and reaching Gainesville in 1859. The vote to found a new town along the expected route of the railroad, to name that town Gainesville, and to make it the county seat, was taken at the (locally) famous picnic at Boulware Spring in 1854. The old courthouse building remained in Newnansville and a new courthouse was built at Gainesville. - Donald Albury 13:31, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Notional amount

message: This tells me absolutely nothing.
This whole area reeks of financial jargon - the definition given in this article re: notional value is almost completely useless.  A "notion" in regular english means something like a vague idea not quite a concept.  So one would expect that the word was used in order to refer to the regular meaning - and use it in some metaphorical sense.  So if someone knows what "notional" value is and could refer it to some meaning outside of the world of finance - so that we could understand it it would be appreciated.`  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Canuckistani (talk • contribs) 04:04, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Louis Le Vau

message: The portrait of Louis Le Vau published by Devêche (see :File:Louis Le Vau - Devêche 1981 p3.jpg) shows a man who closely resembles the sitter in the portrait from Versailles (see :File:Louis Le Vau.jpg), just younger and thinner. Note the similarity of eyebrows, nose, mouth, cleft chin, and even the pencil-thin mustache and the hairstyle. The depiction in the background of the portrait from Versailles of the north pavilion of the Petite Galerie as built in 1661 is also more consistent with Louis Le Vau. It is generally believed that Le Vau designed this structure after the fire of 1 February 1661, to replace the portion of the Louvre that was destroyed. Rabon's portrait of Ratabon was presented at the Salon of 3 July 1660, i.e., it was painted before the fire. It seems to me that Albert Laprade was probably correct to identify the subject as Le Vau. --Robert.Allen (talk) 06:40, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Oxford and Cambridge Cup

message: After the 1904 men’s eights race, the Oxford and Cambridge Cup went missing. It was later discovered in the possession of Harry Whiting, the stroke of the victorious Melbourne University Boat Club (MUBC) crew in that year.

thread_title:  Essay status? 

message: This essay perfectly typifies the majority of talk page discussions on Wikipedia. But even still, I see it as a good thing when matters can be ironed out right down to the most trivial detail. It only makes the encyclopedia that much more comprehensive and, in a way, more accurate. When it comes down to it, if people have the time to discuss the minor details, and there's no other more urgent related matters, then by all means discuss! It's the little things that count. -- œ™ 20:44, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  My thoughts on the essay 

message: There is no denying that much energy is expended at Wikipedia settling what seeing small issues, petty issues. But Wikipedia has large numbers of contributors. Some of us are high quality, a lot of us are in the middle of the bell-shaped-quality curve, and some of us are of truly,  dangerously low quality. Unfortunately, at least in my 'sample of one' assessment, a fair number of the low quality editors are busy, active, don't realize the damage they do. This 'configuration' is what causes a great deal of the "Parkinson's Shed" activity. The atomic reactor was not built according to the Wikipedia model. If it had been, there would have been much more furor about it, lasting much longer. Tapered (talk) 02:54, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

message: The article on Schlick has a section that says "Nelboeck claimed that Schlick's philosophy had "interfered with his moral restraint" - by which he probably meant that under the encouragement of Schlick's philosophy he had indulged himself homosexually."

If there is not much information about Nelboeck, or as the above author said that it is hard to get a clear answer through the fog of war propaganda, that itself should be noted on the page.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.30.2.130 (talk) 20:51, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
