Talk:Varus deformity

message: reword the etiology to make it clearer.
how does the "v-air-us" mnemonic make sense? varus is bent inward, that would mean LESS air between the legs. Consider removing this incorrect memorization technique
Actually this whole section is wrong- VARUS is legs bent INWARDS. VALGUS is OUTWARDS.

Talk:Electronic paper display

message: I've made a couple changes.  Biggest one was the movement of the page as per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (capitalization).  Also, I added a proper introduction, and created a section for the original intro information.  The page still does not define what a WTCD is, and that is a very large problem.  WLU 12:59, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I agree.  I was going to move it myself, however my account wouldn't allow this until today.  I am planning on writing a proper intro.  I believe it can be properly differentiated from electronic paper. Cheers. Takenthesmeg
I think the page could use a bit more expanding before removing the context tag - it's still verging on a stub and you really have to read the electronic paper article to know enough to really understand it.  One option is to merge the info and references into the electronic paper article.  Up to you, think about it!  Might save a lot of work and duplication later.  Just my humble opinion.  WLU 02:02, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

text: When I get a chance - hopefully sometime soon.  I will go through all the reference material an expand the article.  Then, if that is not enough I will consider merging.  However, it may be that some of the Electronic paper article should be moved over to EPD.  As EPD is the term used by the E Ink Corporation, and may be the better term.  That is not to say I believe we should rename Electronic Paper - as this is clearly a separate definable concept.  Cheers.  Takenthesmeg 12:41, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Template talk:Haydn symphonies

message: There's so many symphonies that just putting the number and nickname really fills up a template.  I received positive feedback from my Michael Haydn test run that I figured I'd go ahead with Haydn and Mozart.
I'm thinking of possible ways to break up the list with strategically placed line breaks.  Lines for the Paris and London symphonies seem like obvious choices (with links to the pages for these groups as well), but not sure what to do with the ones in between.  For the rest of them, breaks every 10 or 20?  DavidRF 04:03, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Brisbane Water (utility)

message: Brisbane Water was a "Business Unit" of Brisbane City Council, and had been envisaged as eventually operating as a quasi-commercialised entity.
It ceased operating as a Business Unit soon after the (then) new Lord Mayor was elected, Campbell Newman.   He felt that the business unit needed to be reintegrated back into the Council management/reporting structure for more direct Council control.  To support this action, the Divisional Manager - Brisbane Water role was dissolved.  At the time, a post occupied by Jim Reeves.
Brisbane Water effectively ceased as an entity at this time, and the replacement Council unit was termed "Brisbane City Council - Water Distribution" or BCCWD.
Some of BCC's assets and bulk water supply functions were handed over to State entities in 2008, as part of Southeast Qld water reforms initiated by the Beattie State government.   However, the core business of water and sewerage service distribution and retail stayed with Brisbane City Council until mid-2010, when these assets and functions transferred to Qld Urban Utilities, a statutory authority owned by the its consituent local governments.
The 2008 bulk water asset/function transfers were to:
Southeast Qld Water Grid Manager
Seqwater (not "SEQWater", this was the name of a previous entity joint owned by SE Qld Councils and State Government, that also transferred its assets and functions to the State government in 2008)
Linkwater
Watersecure
Unfortunately, this is Original Research (I was a direct witness to the changes in governance) so hard for me to put into Wikipedia.

Talk:Bass management

message: The first paragraph of this article is nonsense created by a known wikivandal, so I removed it. (It was a slightly clever spoof of corporate management speak, but certainly not encyclopedic.) I applaud the contributors for actually adding meaningful content to this page, seeing as how it started as a vandal's dig at the Wikicommunity. Ddama 04:13, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed nonsense 

message: This article has become somewhat visible because of this link. I have no idea what Ddama removed some years ago, but what has been left (largely unchanging) is one person's opinion about bass crossovering in surround sound (including LFE) systems. it is a sufficiently complex field (with multiple suppliers of hardware and software and multiple suppliers of varying competence of source material), that a single paragraph is ipso facto not adequate coverage, whatever your particular approach to such matters.  Without references to external sources, whether one imagines the claims made here are adequate or accurate, it's headed right into deletion territory. 
Those interested in the subject should make an effort, now that the article has become somewhat prominent to clean it up, lest someone add it to the deletion pile. ww (talk) 07:34, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I strongly disagree with this. Since User:Ddama removed the initial nonsense, the stub has contained uncontroversial, accurate, and useful information. The only controversial claims contained in the cited note are about how to mix using the LFE, and these claims are not contained in this stub. I agree the topic is worthy of more than a single paragraph, but that is not a valid reason for deletion. I am confident that if this stub was ever cited for deletion, the consensus would be keep.

thread_title:  Added as link at subwoofer 

message: I did not propose the merging of LFE crossover into Bass management (proposed on July 10, 2010), but I support it. They are different names for the same thing, so having separate articles does not make sense. HairyWombat 21:09, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merging of LFE crossover 

message: This is a weak and confusing article. It lacks most content, and the table is downright mystifying--why would the LFE signal be "merged" with the sub after base management? It still exists, and is still directed over the .1 connection. It might make more sense to say that the L+R low frequency is "gone" (having been merged with LFE).

message: Currently, the page says that the novel Plumes was adapted into the movie The Big Parade. This seems like it can't be accurate - Plumes is a novel about the post-war experience of the wounded veteran, while The Big Parade is much more focused on the actual experience of the soldiers in France. I think What Price Glory might have been a bigger inspiration for the movie, instead.
Also, I've read one scholar who argues Plumes was a success at the time and another who says it was a critical flop and Stallings suppressed the novel after its first edition (and that What Price Glory was much more successful, in contrast).

Talk:The Barb

message: Below find  the racing record of The Barb (AUS) 1863. All results, bar the first race,  may be found in digitised copies of the Australasian Turf Registers which can  be found at  https://collection.racingmuseum.com.au/highlights/turf-reg/objects.  
There are a few points of  note.
Re The Barb's first start  where he finished 4th-6: According to Douglas M Barrie (The Australian  Bloodhorse, 1956, at p348) The Barb unseated his rider (perhaps before the  start) at his first start at Homebush, Sydney, NSW and this appearance is not  usually counted among his 23 career starts which is not correct.  In a summary of his racing career, the  Sydney Morning Herald of 3 May 1869 p5 records that he finished behind  Blondin in the Homebush Trial Stakes on Easter Monday 1866. The actual race  report (Sydney Morning Herald 3 April 1866 p5) indicates that Tait's colt  (then unnamed) was placed 4th of 6 when the race was restarted.  Hence he is recorded as finishing 4th-6 at  his first start in the racing record below.
Douglas M Barrie ((The  Australian Bloodhorse, 1956, at p349) states that The Barb was beaten by  Fireworks in Randwick Handicap of 2 May 1868.   However the Sydney Morning Herald of 3 May 1869 (p5) does not record  The Barb contesting the 1868 Randwick Handicap. The 1868 Australasian Turf  Register records that he was withdrawn from the race (p91).
On 2 May 1868 The Barb was  disqualified from first place in the Queen's Plate as the jockey weighed in 2  pounds light.
In the Randwick Plate of 12  Sept 1868 Mr Tait owned both competitors and declared The Bard to win.  Both horses cantered around the 3 mile race  distance in an unoffical time of 10 minutes.
The  horses wikipedia page states "The Barb is also listed in the Millers  Guide as running 2nd in The Shorts at Randwick in 1875."  The 1875 Australasian Turf Register  descobes the horse as: "Mr. J. Tate’s bl h The Barb, 4 yrs" so is  not the same horse.  The index to that  1875 publication also has another horse called "The Barb" racing  that year however further investigation of results indicated is was a typo  and was correctly named "The Bard". 203.221.62.110 (talk) 09:30, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
