* Created Lemon (surname) page and moved people with the name "Lemon" to that page.
* Added links to Lemon (surname) and Lemon Tree to "See also" section.
* Removed "See also The Market for Lemons" from the entry for lemon (automobile).  The "Market" link is mentioned on lemon (automobile)
* Also removed the following for they do not belong on a "Lemon" disambiguation page. These are topics which include the word "lemon", but are not senses of of the word "lemon" that correspond to encyclopedic topics whose articles could logically be titled simply "Lemon":
** lemon battery, is a battery made using a lemon.
** Lemon Demon, Neil Cicierega's internet band.
** Salts of Lemon, a bleaching agent made from Potassium oxalate (and the links were both red anyway...)

message: I find it strange to start the article by defining the topic of the article, "Heimskringla", as the name of the saga. The article is about the saga, not about its name. A discussion of the background for the name belongs further down in the text. There were also some factual errors about first Danish translation. It is also wrong to say that "Norway", and "Dane" didn't have their present meanings at Snorre's time.

Talk:Motility

message: Ogv file format for the media file near the start of this article is an outstanding choice. Ogv, after all, is a format that can be included as one of the formats for html-based video. Usually, when ogv is used in web video, it works best when mp4 is also used. That way, it works for almost all browsers, because almost all browsers work awesomely with mp4, so  browsers will automatically select mp4 and ogv will not interfere.  In this article ogv wisely is used, without accompanying mp4, which achieves the goal of making the media unplayable without a program not installed on most phones. I work with quite a few media formats all the time. After dozens of tests across windows and Mac computers, the ideal solution for playing ogv video I found was to produce video in mp4 and webm formats, then load those two formats. In this configuration, ogv works perfectly because it is not involved. An example of a video setup in this configuration is viewable at https://legacy-systems.biz/longview2500/public_links/public/usa/things_threatening_to_destroy_our_country/marxist_subversion_of_the_united_states/index.php  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:2C1:C200:D480:7867:803E:431C:D4EE (talk) 08:40, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

Some other examples would be nice. Vivacissamamente
*Terminal alkynes are alkynes that end (or begin, perhaps) with the triple bond and thus are also termed monosubstituted alkynes.

message: Could there be an IPA to show the difference between alkyne and alkene? User:GKFXtalk 11:29, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I was wondering that. Alkene is definitively /əɫkiːn/ (schwa as l is nearly a syllabic L, dark l with k, e with magic e making /iː/, just as -ane is /eɪn/). Alkyne I have always heard it pronounced /əɫkiːːn/ as in a very long vowel, which is non-standard for English (unless at the dentist /ɑ::/). But then again y plus magic e is not a valid mix as y in Modern English behaves like a terse i /aɪ/ (mid word), a lax one /ɪ/ (end, blame French spelling) or rarely a /u/ (Greek), so /əɫkaɪn/ (rhyming with cytokine, not cane), but I have never heard it said that way. I should note that when I pronounce alkyne I think I pronounce it /əɫky:n/ (/y/ like German ü), but I think that is too much Old English as I say it with dude. --Squidonius (talk) 15:13, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: Naming

message: Greetings from the Hanwell Observatory, Oxon., U.K., where gamma Vir. has been measured at least annually since 1998.38, with the exception of 2022, during which time this magnificent revolving star-system has swept through 274 degrees of its orbit, down to the latest measure on the 12.5-inch telescope here last Sunday evening of position-angle ('p.a.')= 354.1 deg. +/- 1.1, at 2023.38. For comparison, the prediction for this date from the most recent orbital ephemeris is 353.5 deg.
  A recent critical review of the whole series of Hanwell measures has demonstrated that the measured p.a.s have generally been within about 1 degree of subsequently established definitive values (which are not merely those taken from any single orbit computation), even through the 0.3-arcsecond periastron of 2005, and sometimes even closer, while never being more than 3 deg. out at worst. This should be borne in mind when looking at the tabulation of observed and predicted p.a.s given in the main article here. The ancient Strand orbit of 1937 was already wildly divergent from the true motion of this binary even before the 2005 periastron and has now long been completely irrelevant.  If the Wikipedia team would like to see a longer account of this work (450 words about), I'm happy to supply that.
