Talk:Tollmann's bolide hypothesis

message: "The 7640 BCE evidence is consistent with the dates of formation of a number of salt flats and lakes still extant in dry areas of North America and Asia, suggesting that the strikes may have occurred in oceans, causing multiple-kilometer-high waves that penetrated deeply into continents, and/or causing large amounts of saltwater to be pushed into orbit and fall down as rain, leaving salt lakes in deserts. Surface salt is always a temporary geological phenomenon, because rain dissolves salt." Where is a salt flat that can be securely dated 9590 Before Present (ie "7640 B.C.") that was formed all at once? These "dry lakes" are formed of shallow varves. The "B.C." style of dating demonstrates the context of this assertion. If this text can't be made more credible, it should be removed, unless it can simply report a quote to Tollmann to similar effect. --Wetman 15:20, 27 May 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: The "Evidence", B.C.

message: Wetman presents very valid points in his comments. as far as Tollmann is concerned. First, Kristan-Tollmann and Tollmann (1994) contains no reference to impact-generated tsunamis having created the salt lakes. Thus, unless their book, which is difficult to get a copy of and is written in German, contains reference to the formation of salt lakes by comet impacts, the association between salt lakes and impact generated tsunamis is not part of Tollmann's hypothetical bolide theory. Rather, it appears that the association between comet impacts and salt lakes and flats was instead proposed by Uriel's Machine instead of by Dr. Kristan-Tollmann and Dr. Tollmann.

replies: text: Same scrutiny should be applied for "large amounts of saltwater to be pushed into orbit", which is unphysical. The article seems to be a mixture of modern established theories about bolide impacts and wild unphysical additions. I think I'll add some inline templates where the physics becomes weird.

replies: text: This proposal was redirected to one encompassing all U.S. schools. However, the current list doesn't fit with either standard naming convention or the proposal, so I'm altering it to conform with the former. This means that districts will be listed by name alone in most cases; in those where they may share a district name with that of another location, the format is Name (County), i.e. Springfield Local School District (Summit County). A disambiguation page should also be created, i.e. Springfield Local School District. Messes like this are what happen when editors deviate from standard naming conventions without wide acceptance.

Astonished? Maybe a few decades ago, but nowadays there are plenty of trumpeters who can handle it on a natural trumpet. I'm not feeling very bold at the moment, but I will remove (or rephrase) this if nobody objects. EldKatt (Talk) 20:40, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Talk:The Silver Branch

message: I have read the disambiguation guidelines, and I am still uncertain what to do about this one. I don't think it's a problem right now, but possibly in two, five, twenty years it might be. So to future-proof it, I can see three ways to do this: 
* As I have done it now. The (better-known, I believe, and certainly older) novel having the main "the silver branch" (henceforth TSB in this comment!), and mentions of a later book and a likely source for the name. 
* TSB page covering any and all silver branches. Chronologically, Bran's would come first, then this one, then the Kennealy book. Doubtless there are or will be more.  
* disambiguation page for TSB, with then the contents of this page about Sutcliff's book at "TSB (Sutcliff novel)". I think this is a bit of a silly option because there are no articles on the other silver branches. There is no article on Ms Keannealy herself yet, even, let alone her books, although she has been a red wikilink for quite some time; and I think there is little to say about Bran's silver branch beyond what is said in the Voyage of Bran page, so it would turn into one of those two-sentence wiki articles which have little potential for expansion. 
Or you can list this on VfD, of course, which is a fourth approach but one which I hope no-one takes!
