Talk:Forest Research Institute (India)

message: Although this institute has a long history and English as its native tongue, most forested countries have a national forest research institute, so I think this is a general term. 
Thus this article should deal and describe these institutes in general and each national, private or commerial research institute should have a separate title under a category of research institutes and forest research institutes.  
:Category:Research institutes 
:Category:Forest research institutes
Pihka 21:01, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd disagree with Pihka on that. In my view, this article is correctly named for its subject, though there is clearly the possibility of a new global article on Forestry research. Meanwhile I've added a few stubs to :Category:Forest research institutes and a Forest research (disambiguation) page. Since :Category:Forest research institutes is a sub-category of :Category:Research institutes, I don't think we need to use the higher-level one too. I'll copy this talk to the dab page for reference.--Mereda 08:37, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree with the first comment, and suggest that this article be renamed Forest Research Institute (India). To add to the confusion, Forest research currently directs to a UK govt organization. FYI, there is now also a new List of forest research institutes. DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 13:10, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

message: The correlation between HOMA and estimated from clamp studies is given here as 0.88:
"This model correlated well with estimates using the euglycemic clamp method (r = 0.88)."
Discussion points:
1. no citation is given
2. the value seams too high, compare for example:

Talk:Names of Moldavia and Moldova

message: Victor Spinei  says, quoting another author, that germanic mulda may have originally meant riverbed, probably coming from latin mulctra  meaning milking pail/trough Anonimu 12:51, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: [Untitled]

message: Is it by any chance possible that the name could have come from "Mol + Dava", as in Ziridava (Arad), Dava (Deva), etc. ? [Dava being an old Indo-European word for God, (as in Latin 'deus', 'divus', for instance), meaning also 'strengthened city' or 'fortress']. Any hints or suggestions are welcomed. Thank you. -- Lucian.
P.S. : "Black Wallachia", "Black Sea" -- any connection ? (except the geographical one, of course).
:"Black" in "Black Wallachia" comes from Turkish system of cardinal points. Black = North. Black Sea most likely comes from it's color especially near Danube. -- AdrianTM 17:49, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Question 

message: The word Moldova (< *Maldava 'Young person, being') has South-West Baltic (Thracian) origin; -ava is typical Baltic ending (Daugava, Kandava etc.). It comes from malda 'young', cf. Old Prussian malds 'young', as also Slavic molod (< *mald-) 'young'.
Roberts7 22:54, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: This is wrong. Reason 1 is that the name Moldo was given to a dog, which has nothing to do with Slavic names. Reason 2: the "Slavic" -ova ending for feminine nouns comes from Turkic ev ('house, housewife, family, marry' = family surnames = ancient Oghur tradition among Slavs). Furthermore Moldo is found in Kyrgyz Turkic names.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.134.130.83 (talk) 11:18, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

message: The term Gm is practically never seen in general encyclopedic material. What's wrong with saying millions of kilometers,
which along with the AU is the normal expression of interplanetary distances?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.73.22.113 (talk) 03:28, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why is Gm used here and practically nowhere else in Astronomy articles? 

message: The article states that Icarus was the record holder for closest perihelion distance until the discovery of 2000 BD19 in 2000. This seems to be erronous since at least the asteroid 1995 CR has a perihelion distance of 0.1193 AU, which is much closer than Icarus. Should that be corrected? Renerpho (talk) 22:32, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Edit. As the asteroid 1995 CR was only observed at the opposition in 1995 and only recently re-discovered (in 2014), I wondered if the orbital elements would have been known with the 1995 observations only. I checked that by calculating the orbit myself (using only 1995 observations), finding that the perihelion distance was known to be 0.11911 +/-0.00017, fairly accurate...Renerpho (talk) 22:45, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Good catch. 1995 CR was observed from 1995 02 03 through 1995 02 23 giving it a 20 day observation arc with many observations. But 3200 Phaethon (1983 TB) with q=0.14 upstaged 1566 Icarus before 1995 CR and 2000 BD19. -- Kheider (talk) 16:00, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Vincients Wood

message: Sorry to have cut the final para to the bone, but it was just too "tourist-brochurey" to be true, and a long way from wikipedia's NPOV ideal! I also cut a couple of street names and de-wikilinked most of the others, apart from Moss Mead and Long Dragon Piece: I guess those two might get their own pages in due course, the others are much less likely. Apart from that, the article's fine, but it could do with a few more details/finishing touches, if anyone can help:
*Do you have any photos of the wood? A good picture or two would be worth including (and worth 1,000 words of brochure-speak!). If not, perhaps you could get permission to upload the one from the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust website? 
*It looks as if Vincients qualifies as a Bluebell wood, so perhaps a link to/from that page might be relevant? It could be the start of a List of notable bluebell woods...
*Does anyone know the derivation of the name "Vincients"? (It caught my eye first as a possible typo for "Vincent's") 
*OS Grid Reference? and/or external link to aerial photo/map?
SiGarb 13:19, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Good call, I basically just reworded most of the text from the signs in the wood itself when I wrote the article. As for photos, I was going to get some last year when I made the article but this being England it started raining and hasn't stopped yet. Not long enough for me to be bothered to get out there and shoot some photos - I will as soon as I can though. Secondly, it probably is a bluebell wood, though I don't know what the qualifiers a wood needs to be declared bluebell! I checked around lots and everywhere that the wood is referred to, it is 'Vincients' as opposed to 'Vincient's'. I've never known it with an apostrophe anyway. All your suggestions are good, in all honesty. I'm gonna try to get some photos sometime this month. Dragonfly888 23:16, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Don't take your pictures yet! I'd wait until (a) it stops raining and (b) it looks pretty! Large carpets of bluebells do a bluebell wood make, I reckon! The Wiltshire Wildlife trust pic shows lots, and I presume it must have been taken in this wood, or they wouldn't have used it on that page. So late April or early May will be the best time, I'd say. BTW, it wasn't just the apostrophe I was referring to, but the extra "i" in Vinc(i)ents. A local family, perhaps? SiGarb 00:21, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have seen virtual bluebell rugs in there in summer! I had a look on the signs in the forest and they don't say anything about the derivation of the name. You're right, I should wait a while until I get some shots of the wood... Dragonfly888 21:31, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
