Talk:Greenwich Pier

message: Today, , I again removed the sound of water gently lapping against the pier. JoBrodie, I see you are fairly new to wp, so I will post here to explain. We don't put random information on wp with no editorial merit that adds nothing to the article in question. The sound media you added contributes absolutely nothing to anyone's understanding of the pier. If it were the sound of the pier collapsing after a tidal surge, with people screeming, then that might be more meritorious, but it isn't. The justification links you gave are not relevant. WP policy and guidelines is what matters. Try NOT instead, or TRIVIA or any of many other wikipedia pages. I hope that helps. Roger 8 Roger (talk) 06:01, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Tuen Mun Ferry Pier

message: I want to merge this article with the Ferry Pier (KCR) article because they are at the same location and they are about the same transportation hub.  If possible, I would also like to include some information about the bus terminus and Pierhead Garden in this proposed new article.
Sir Studieselot 02:13, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: They are not the same thing. The LRT station was named after the pier, just as many bus terminals do. They're not one single facility (e.g. Tsuen Wan West Station and its bus terminal, Hung Hom Station and its bus terminal). It is for the same reason there are two articles on the two Kowloon Tong stations, two articles on Tsim Sha Tsui and East Tsim Sha Tsui stations, two articles on Hong Kong and Central stations, but one article for Nam Cheong Station (since it is one facility, instead of two facilities connected like the former examples). The LRT station was named as such because of its proximity to the pier, which is the best landmark in that area. You won't merge the articles on Siu Hong Station and Siu Hong Court, or the proposed Kai Tak Station with the retired Kai Tak Airport. — Instantnood 21:32, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Agreed. This shouldn't be merged. The Ferry Pier is a place where ferries berth, whereas the KCR article specifically relates to the LRT stop/terminus. Links should be made between the two articles, and the introduction should indicate the scope of each article, giving links to relevant articles where necessary. The precedent that has been set in this case is that each KCR stop/station has an article of its own and specifically relates to the transportation stop/hub. Other services nearby should rightly have their own article. СђrΐsτσρhΞr ScЋδlτξη 15:17, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm wondering if it's appropriate to cite British Orders after his name, given that as an American military officer, while he could accept the orders, it would have been considered inappropriate and questionably legal for him to use them, himself, owing to a constitutional prohibition on titles of nobility.

message: This article is necessarily speculative, but this section takes the cake:
:There are several rumors floating around aviation message boards regarding Y1 and its appearance. Some feel that Y1 will be similar, if not the same, as the current 737, only with composite structures and new efficient engines. 
:Others believe Boeing is going with a high wing design, similar to that of the C-17. There have been rumors of a patent submitted by Boeing regarding an aircraft of this type. 
:The third group believes that Boeing will go with a T-Tailed, rear-mounted engine design, similar to that of the MD-80 and Boeing 717. This configuration would phase out the 717, MD-80, and the EMB-145, as well as compete with the Airbus NSR. Whether Boeing would go for such a radical change to the 737 remains to be seen.

message: Amalthea and Auðumbla from Norse tales seem associated, they may be indo-european but may also be a later cross-over re-adoption in addition.

message: Actually the discussion of skerry formation transcends Norway—that's how most northern skerries were formed. The only ones that may not have been formed by direct glacial action are those in the United Kingdom (and I just don't recall ever seeing a discussion of their formation), but they got named skerries by the Norsemen, who were presumably describing an island type and not a formation mechanism.
