Talk:Aspect ratio (aeronautics)

message: In aviation, the aspect ratio of aircraft tapered wings is found by dividing the square of the wing span {b} by the total wing area (S): 
AR = b2/S
If the wing has a constant chord, the aspect ratio is the result of dividing the wingspan (b) by the value of the chord (c):
AR = b/c
Similarly, if the value of the mean geometric chord is known, the aspect ratio is the result of dividing the wingspan by the value of the mean geometric chord:
AR = b/cmean

Talk:Legal origins theory

message: This article needs some factual touch-ups which I'll try to fix in the next couple of days, but I have one question. The final line states that legal origins is controversial among financial economists and scholar of corporate law. I'm not sure that's entirely correct, particularly since it's without a source. That was likely true after the first few years when LLSV published their first article ("Legal Determinants of External Finance") in 1997, but I'm not sure that in 2010 this is accurate anymore. My reading of the literature generally is that the overwhelming majority of financial economists accept the proposition of legal origins whereas scholars of corporate law who are not economists generally have far greater disagreement over the legal origins position. From what I read, in the circles of financial economists the debate is generally how great the effect is and on the issues of legal convergence, and even large consensus on that is emerging in recent years. Is it really true there is still hot debate among financial economists because I just don't see that? Seelum (talk) 18:10, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Competitive inhibitor

message: I'm not sure that it is correct to call non competitive inhibition allosteric.  Certainly they are similar with regard to the inhibitor (and activator in the case of allosteric enzymes) binding to a site other than the active site.  however, allosteric mechanisms will change the Km whereas non competitive do not change the km.  They are different classes of inhibition by definition.  So I'm qualifying it.  David D. (Talk) 04:48, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

message: The text states:
"In competitive inhibition, the molecule binds to the same active site as the normal enzyme substrate, but doesn't activate it."
But some competitive inhibitors do activate the enzyme.  E.g., the essential fatty acids Dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid, arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid are all mutually competitive inhibitors for cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase.  Other definitions on the web, such as here, don't put this restriction on. David.Throop 19:15, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  GPL 

message: Yep, I used to have one of those.
It sounded great, but almost as soon as I got it I had to migrate from Win95 to Windows XP, and although Korg had made a big deal about understanding how important driver support was to buyers, when the PCI didn't take off (high initial cost, many initial delays), they took a pragmatic decision to cut their losses and not spend more money to develop an XP-compatible driver for it. So mine spent a lot of time gathering dust or dangling from auxiliary secondary PC's in homebrew Heath-Robinson-type network arrangements while I waited for mLAN to get its act together. In the end I gave up and sold the thing. The card probably still has its fans out there. 
Oh, and it was a ....very.... long PCI card, it wouldn't physically fit in some PCs.

Talk:Bernard Barker

message: "Barker was a paid CIA agent at the time of the break-in." He had previously been on the CIA payroll. But the assertion that he was on it at the time of the break-in is to my understanding, a theory, not an established fact. Unless a reference can be furnished I believe that I will delete this sentence.
As well, though he was on the CIA payroll and participated in various CIA operations including the Bay of Pigs invasion, I do not believe that he was ever a "CIA agent" per se.

Talk:Theodore Streleski

message: So someone had changed the spelling to "deLeeuw", which broke the link to Karel de Leeuw, so I changed it back.  Then I changed the other instances for consistency.  Then I started to wonder and checked into it.  Google returns about twice as many hits for "karel de leeuw" as "karel deleeuw", but they  aren't all about the mathematician.  On MathSciNet it seems that he himself wasn't consistent; some papers have him one way and some the other (though rather more seem to have the space than not).
Anyway I don't feel strongly about it if anyone has a strong argument for the no-space.  But in any case there should be a redirect so that both spellings are blue links. --Trovatore 05:06, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: The article on Alumnus#Usage says that an alumnus is "a former student and most often a graduate of an educational institution." There is no denying that he is a former student, and although he is not a graduate, he might be still considered an alumni.  I think these decisions have to do with the school's preference. My alma mater chooses to list all former students as alumni, but I do not know about Stanford. -- ТимофейЛееСуда.  03:11, 6 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, per the Stanford Alumni Association to be a part of the Alumni Association, one must "have completed a minimum of three academic quarters as a matriculated, degree-seeking student, in a degree-granting program." So basically, since Streleski was an enrolled student in the PhD program (degree granting) for many  years, he would be eligible to join the Alumni Association although they might refuse him for not being in "good moral character."

thread_title:  Separate page for the Local Government Area 

message: I hid (rather than removed) the controversies section for the following reasons:
*As it was written, the section read like a list of criticisms of one councillor. "Cr Nick Adams this... Cr Nick Adams that... Deputy Mayor Nick Adams something else..." For that reason, I slightly rewrote the section to de-emphasise the list aspect.
*Being an article about a place, a list of controversies about a particular person is out of place. It wouldn't be an issue if the section referred to controversies concerning multiple people or, especially, the entire council considered together.
I think that, if the person is notable (and a local politician probably is), then the controversies as currently listed should be at Nick Adams (Councillor) rather than Municipality of Ashfield.

Selim is very much a public figure in Australia, and it is quite unfortunate that no article exists about him on Wikipedia because whenever you look for a summary of who he is and what he has done no neutral or well sourced article can be found. 
At the very least, I would expect that if he isn't a notable figure then it should be discussed on WP:AFD before the article is summarily deleted.
