Talk:Hughes XF-11

message: Does anyone have information on the current whereabouts of the second XF-11 prototype?  The wikipedia articles for two other famous Hughes aircraft, the Hercules (Spruce Goose) and the H-1 Racer, include present-day location (museum) locations.  The location of the second XF-11 prototype, if it survives, might make a nice addition to the page.
Strawtarget (talk) 20:56, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

message: From the entry: Hughes did not follow the agreed testing program and communications protocol, and remained airborne almost twice as long as planned. An hour into the flight (after on-board recording cameras had run out of film), a leak caused the right-hand propeller controls to lose their effectiveness....
What does "effectiveness" mean in this case?  They stopped working?  They didn't work as well as they had previously?  Could a better word be substituted for the entry
Thank you. Rissa, copy editor (talk) 00:13, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I would take it to mean the prop-pitch controls stopped working. A hydraulic system (such as was used for prop-pitch control) doesn't work if it has no fluid. A better wording might be: "... caused the right-hand propeller controls to become ineffective...." FWIW. Jororo05 (talk) 22:15, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Sprevane

message: In the interests of determining what the best title for this article is, here are some Google Books results:
*Sprevane: 3/4 (2 English); also used by Encyclopedia Britannica 1911
*Sprevanen: 1 (English)
*Sprevaner: 1 (German)
*Sprevani: 5/6 (non-English, 1 Latin)
*Sprevjane: 2/3 (1 Slovenian, 1 German; previous article title)
*Sprevjani: 1 (German)
*Sprewane: 5 (non-English]
*Sprewanen: 15/22 (German, 1 English)
*Sprewaner: 2/4 (1 English)
*Sprewaners: 1 (English)
*Sprewanes: 1 (English)
*Sprewani: 1 (German)
*Sprewjani: 1 (Polish)
*Zpriavani: 19/23 (archaic; German and Czech)
There is no clear-cut standard English or Latin name as with some other tribes; it is obvious that "Sprevjane" is not  used in English works, however. I chose "Sprevane", as it has been used in Encyclopedia Britannica. Other alternatives would be considered, of course; there are probably other variations I have not considered.

message: I edited this page to remove garlic from the recipe since my Bulgarian girlfriend tells me this is absolutely false, and most recipes I've found on the web concur with her.

Talk:Destination Hotels

message: I deleted most of the properties, except the ones that had articles (though a couple of those don't seem particularly notable to me) and the Tarrytown one, which seems to be notable enough. The rest, unless they truly merit an article (for instance, if they have a notable effect on a particular location's economy like Sunriver does for Bend, Oregon), don't need to be included. If articles get written on any remaining *notable* properties, then perhaps they can be added back on a case-by-case basis. It would probably be better to discuss the additions here first. P.S.

thread_title: Bad choice of words

message: Did she die on June or July 20? The saintbox says June, as does the German wikipedia entry. However, this article's intro says July 20, and the cited source, the Catholic Encyclopedia (at least the New Advent edition online) agrees. Clearly, a correction needs to be made in the article, but I don't know which way to go. I added it to the saint's days section of general wikipedia calendar for July 20 (which already notes her under deaths earlier), hoping that someone capable of checking could do the correction. A Dominican perhaps?Jweaver28 (talk) 00:29, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems 20 July has been in the article since the first edit (based on the Catholic Encyclopedia). 20 June was added as the feast with the infobox, but the editor gave 20 July as the death date there. The death date was later changed in the infobox and persondata to match the feast date (and standardised here), but the article text has never been changed from 20 July. It seems we can reliably source 20 July for the death date (from the Catholic Encyclopedia), but there aren't yet any sources that I know of for 20 June (though the longer it remains in the article the more it will continued to be used on the internet). I've asked the editor who made the later changes to the infobox/persondata if he has any sources or was just harmonising the existing facts, and it seems the person who added the infobox isn't active. Finally, would it be possible that she died in July but her feast day was in June, or is it always on the date of death? --xensyriaT 12:25, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Cancel that, every other source that I've found gives 20 June, and even page scans of the Catholic Encyclopedia support this; it seems to me the New Advent digitization is probably the source of 20 July, and I've contacted the webmaster about it. I've also corrected the article to 20 June, with a footnote mentioning 20 July. --xensyriaT 12:45, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Update: The webmaster has checked against the original, confirmed it was a mistake and has said he will correct it with the next update. I've therefore removed the footnote. --xensyriaT 14:23, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

message: The Western Schism did not begin until well after Margareta Ebner's death. This page, as it currently stands, misrepresents the papal politics at play during this time. There was only one line of legitimate popes at the time - the popes who dwelt in Avignon. Louis IV attempted to create a Roman antipope during his campaign to Italy, but his antipope (Peter of Corvaro/Nicholas V) surrendered to and sought absolution from Pope John XXII within two years of his ascension.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.114.16.124 (talk) 14:49, 6 September 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Blackbeard: Terror at Sea

message: "The flag used in the film as Edward Teach's (Blackbeard's) pirate flag were in fact not his colors; but the flag of Captain John (Calico Jack) Rackham."
Well, it might appear so at first (and it was also my initial impression), because "Calico Jack's flag" is featured quite a lot early on in the first part of the miniseries. The reason for this is that it is narrated by Israel Hands who is at first a crewman under Charles Vane, the captain who would later be deposed by his men and replaced by his quartermaster John (Calico Jack) Rackham. The flag that is today identified as Calico Jack's was simply Charles Vane's in the first place. In footage of Blackbeard's ship flying a pirate flag the correct flag is indeed used. -- x-Flare-x{Talk) 01:03, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The contention of an earlier contributor (19 December 2014) that 'the basis of Chewa is Sotho' in particular the Sepedi dialect of Northern Sotho cannot be justified. It can be seen from the numbers, for example (Sepedi: tee, pedi, tharo, nne, hlano = Chewa: -modzi -wiri -tatu -nayi -sano) that the two languages are related only very distantly. His contention that the Maravi Empire was founded by a Sotho monarchy also seems to be without any historical foundation.Kanjuzi (talk) 04:23, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

message: I have seen many different stated lengths for this tunnel as I have researched it, and think we should decide on one for use across the Wikipedia articles that mention it.

Other sources describe the tunnel as 4,273 ft.  I thought I would bring it up here so we could reach a consensus and have a consistent length for Wikipedia.  What are your thoughts?

It would seem that they could be from anywhere the way those brackets are published. It would be much better and within keeping of wikipedia standards if editors would add more information to verify claims made. Also, listing of all the winning individuals every year on wikipedia is not really appropriate. Perhaps noting how the school did overall then clarifying more details on a separate website, such as one from and by the high school would be much more appropriate. --Kukini  hablame aqui 22:43, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
