message: Despite the weird edit wars - which I am NOT NOW a part of - this is a better read.
I do think there are many sections that are old cut/pastes with the editors not really understanding the content.
The article was confusing as to the chemical and the chemical emulsion formulated as the anesthetic- the infobox gives plenty of technical data on this chemical compound - but it is ONLY as an emulsified formulation that it becomes useful. If you look at a vial of the stuff - and I see it frequently - it says something like 'one or two percent P in soybean oil' etc. 
To be crystal PROPOFOL is a chemical. The stuff used by an Anesthesiologist is emulsified PROPOFOL.

Talk:Wide outside lane

message: Wide lanes unfortunately inspire some motorists to speed up, and also inspire double-parking.  Both of these effects were evident when wide outside lanes were tried in San Francisco in the 1990s, making the lanes very unsafe.  They were eventually restriped to have bike lanes, but at that point the habit of double-parking had been established and continues in the bike lanes.  Jym 20:11, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: On a street where double parking is practiced, it's hard to understand how the speeds could be high enough to warrant cyclists needing any kind of special facility at all.  If motorists are slowing down and stopping to park and even double park, other motorists must slow down, stop, and/or drive around them.  If they can do that, they can just as easily also slow down and/or drive around bicyclists.  That's just par for the course.  --Serge 22:19, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The motorist behavior is (and remains) as I described, both the speeding and the double-parking.  The behaviors do not always combine in safe or rational ways:  motorists speed from obstruction to obstruction, where they may swerve into another lane or they may slam on the brakes, depending.  BTW, I am not making a "special facility" argument, so please spare the knee-jerk refutation, Jym 18:19, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Not Universal 

message: Curb lanes aren't just widened to benefit bicyclists. Curbs are commonly offset at least one foot from the lane, whether or not bicyclists are considered. This is because vehicle drivers generally will drive closer to the centerline when vertical faced curbs are used, to reduce hydroplaining. splashing and spray from rainwater in the gutter. Also, bicyclists in a WCL, shoulder or bike lane are deemed to have a passenger car equivalence of zero, meaning they don't add to vehicle delays. I'm not sure how much of this belongs in the article, but it shows why the statement that "WOLs are generally considered to be facilities which primarily benefit cyclists" is misleading. --Triskele Jim 17:26, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

Talk:List of Major League Baseball career total bases leaders

message: According to the information given in this article, either the formula is incorrect or the description is incorrect.
If the description is correct (which I suspect is true), then the formula should be TB = H + (2*2B) + (3*3B) + (4*HR).
Otherwise, if the formula is correct, the weighting would be:
1 for first base, 1 for second base, 2 for third base and 3 for fourth base.
Will someone with some time please correct this mistake.
:Your mistake here is that H is not a single, it is any type of hit.  A HR is worth four bases, but one of them has already been counted in the H so we only multiply by three.  Same logic for 2B and 3B. →Vik Reykja 22:47, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I corrected the weights to reflect the essence of the definition, rather than the coefficients.  As mentioned previously, H = 1B + 2B + 3B + HR, therefore TB = 1B + (2*2B) + (3*3B) + (4*HR), or TB = 1B +  2B + 2B + 3B + (2*3B) + HR + (3*HR), or TB = 1B + 2B + 3B + HR + 2B + (2*3B) + (3*HR), or TB = H + 2B + (2*3B) + (3*HR). r. 07:49, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

message: The definition here clearly states that Total Bases only includes bases reached from safe hits. The distinction should be made though that this stat does not include any of the other ways in which a batter can reach base safely, since the name is a bit of a misnomer. Some people might assume (as I did) that Total Bases indicates the number of bases a player has safely reached.  
Is there even a recognized stat for this? It seems like there should be, but I don't know what it is. "Times on Base" at least includes some of the other ways a player can reach base, but it's a misnomer too because it also doesn't include every way a batter can reach base. It also does not count extra bases. I guess I'm asking whether there is a stat for:
(Total Bases) + (Base on Balls) + (Hit by Pitch) + (Reached by error) + (Fielder's choice) + (stolen bases).  Am I missing anything?   Thanks
