Talk:Derrick Davenport

message: So tell me how we are supposed to add information on a pornographic actor when the pornographic archive isnt allowed as a source, and when a direct link to the full video is dismissed as "meh, its just a promo vid"  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.24.183.240 (talk) 09:23, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I do not think Smut Junkies is what Wikipedia considers a reliable source. And a video of him is not a reliable source either, because he allegedly is doing that under a different name. When it comes to writing about living people, Wikipedia is very strict about that. If you want to see if Smut Junkies is a reliable source, there is a page to discuss that.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 19:27, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

text: No. Even if Mr. Davenport sent an email to Wikipedia (which would be something he'd have to do with WP:OTRS), it would not be a reliable source for information on this article. If he spoke to any news outlet and said "I did a video with ByGoneBoys where I performed under the name 'Derrick Greenleaf' and I also did a video with Otoko Art", then we could use that and write about it here. We need something other than links to videos and Smut Junkies (which is only good as an external link, really and is only used 32 times on this project) to say all of the things that were in the article. It's better to have a small article with no unsourced content on it than it is to have a large article full of information we cannot reliably prove, especially if it's about a person walking about on this Earth.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:16, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

text: To reitirate, we here at Wikipedia would rather err on the side of caution and have a short article with very little information that we can prove is true rather than have a large article full of information that we cannot prove is true. We are doing this for the sake of the subject of the article.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 22:29, 12 September 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Rodman gun

message: Consider the following facts:
*  Two 20-inch Rodman guns were emplaced at Fort Hamilton, New York.
* These were cast at the Fort Pitt Foundry.
* The original plans for the USS Puritan included 4 Dahlgren Guns with 20 inch bores.
* At least one of the Puritan guns was cast at the Fort Pitt Foundry, using the Rodman hollow-cast bore, water-cooled core technology. 
* The Puritan was re-designed to use two 20 inch Dahgrens.
* A  XX-inch Dahlgren shell gun  was sold to Peru.
The speculation is that a 20 inch gun, cast at Fort Pitt Foundry in the shape of a Dahlgren Gun, but cast with Rodman technology, was the "20 inch Rodman" sold to Peru. Four XX-inch Dahlgren shell guns were cast by the Fort Pitt Foundry between 1864 and 1867.  Three were accepted by the U.S. Navy, but saw no service.  The fourth gun was sold to Peru.
An additional question would be if all were cast using the Rodman technology. Pustelnik (talk) 12:24, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: 20 inch Peru Gun

message: There was one 20-inch iron gun M1869 in Russia. It was cast at the Perm iron gun facktory using slightly modifyed Rodman technology also. This gun was made on the order of the Russian Navy and fired 314 shots during the tests but never saw service. Now this gun stand in the City of Perm, RU as a museum artefakt.

Talk:Hans Delbrück

message: The subsection "In fiction" was subordinated to the top-level section "Hypotheses". I suppose one of the several mentioned occurrences of his name in fiction has given someone occasion for a "hypothesis" about what Brooks intended, but the subordination does violence to the obvious assumption readers are invited to make, that each subsection is about hypotheses that Delbrück put forward (about history).   Without changing the order, i am de-subordinating "In fiction" (i.e. making it its own top-level section) so its context is no longer implicitly "[Hypotheses] in fiction", but rather "[Hans Delbrück] In fiction".--Jerzy•t 03:21, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

message: "While the design was impractical for actual combat"?
Is this substantiated or is it a mere assumption?
Dsunlin (talk) 23:19, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  impractical for actual combat? 

message: The article starts by saying the sword was 25 inches long. It then counts off 6 inches of grip, 4 inches of crossguard(that's one hell of a crossguard...2/3 of the grip?) and 19 inches of blade...making that 29 inches. So, which is it? 25 or 29? Presumably the 4 inches refer to the WIDTH of the crossguard, but it doesn't say that. And grip is not hilt, meaning that the thickness of the crossguard, which looks to be at least an inch, isn't included either way. 85.229.59.216 (talk) 23:02, 25 July 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Manors station

message: A couple of points:
* "The old Manors station was closed on January 23, 1978, to allow for the construction of the Tyne and Wear Metro. This new station has two platforms in an underground tunnel, which opened on November 14, 1982."
* "Only a small number of main line services stop at Manors... All Tyne and Wear Metro services currently make a stop at the station, however." 
In case it needs pointing out, the Manors station on the Tyne and Wear Metro is a completely separate station to the original British Rail/Northern Spirit/Arriva/Northern Rail Manors station. With this in mind, was main line service (e.g. Central - Manors -> Chathill) ever suspended during Metro construction? 
Also:
* "From 1904 until 1964, the lines through the station were electrified: this was with both third-rail and overhead electrification. The East Coast Main Line was subsequently re-electrified in 1990." 
As I understand it, the mainline track through Manors (or the ECML as a whole) did not have any sort of overhead electrification until the late 1980s/early 1990s. AdorableRuffian 01:26, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

message: I removed the proposed deletion template that was placed on this article. I did not write the article. I just moved it from a disambiguation page. Obviously, the article needs sources and expansion, but I believe that the topic can support an article. For example, the tactics used in extractions could be added. Also, notable extraction operations, successful or not, could be added. One example is the failed rescue of hostages in the U.S. embassy in Iran after the revolution in 1979. I think that a proposed deletion template should be used when there is no hope of making the entry into an article, and I do not think that is the case here.
