Talk:Zabriskie Point

message: This article needs to have the coordinates put at the top, just like Manly Lake has. 168.150.253.55 03:41, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The label for this picture was "Panoramic view from Zabriskie Point, looking northeast towards Furnace Creek". If the view is toward the northeast why is the file name "south panorama". There's no further elucidation in the file description. Given the file name I suppose the view is toward the south or else the file is named wrongly or obscurely. Not knowing which, I've removed "looking northeast towards Furnace Creek" from the label. Herostratus (talk) 21:29, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  re [[:File:Zbriskie Point South Panorama 2012.jpg]] 

message: OK, both chem and bio research go on there. But that's implausible unless the *purpose* of the "secret chemical and biological research station" is to do bio-chemical (or "biochemical")  research", more naturally described as a "bio-chemical ..." or "biochemical..." research station. I shall check  for an existing ref supporting the odd locution, and return here, not to apologize for my reasonable surmise, but to denounce here the colleague's presumable failure to note that their wording here failed to heed the example of a presumably better educated and/or more professionally-behaving colleague or source. (No, one need not be a professional to edit here. All are welcome, but all could, and IMO should, strive to emulate the attention to precision that, sadly, few but professionals succeed well at it: it calls for motivation, but such motivation is not often found without the motivating force of society-relative rewards, so "no blame attaches" JerzyA (talk) 12:39, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

Talk:Zmudowski State Beach

message: The section "Marine Debris" discusses marine debris in general, nothing specific to this state beach other than the first sentence, "Marine debris has been found in the Zmudowski State Beach," which is true of every single state beach. Instead of including that information here, the article should link to an article about marine debris in general.
The section "Littering" consists of a single sentence stating that littering is illegal and fines are handed out at the beach, which is dated information that references a dead link. It should be removed.
Also remove reference to use of the beach by nudists and permanent dead link, let someone else chase that down.
Done. Also added an  template to the page, mostly copying Moss Landing State Beach, and added an image from the Zmudowski SB website image gallery :File:Zmudowski_State_Beach_Sign.jpg.
Updating class of article from "Stub" to "Start", accordingly. Updating importance of article from "low" to "mid" (as per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_California/Assessment#Importance_scale)

Talk:Tharunka

message: *Joestella has proposed merging Blitz into this article. I believe that Blitz should be kept separate from Tharunka as they are separate publications, and if they were to be covered on the same page, then the page should be broadened to Student newspapers at UNSW or something similar. Having one publication redirected to the other would have people believe they are the same publication and considering the amount of student media already covered on Wikipedia, I think Blitz warrants an article, given it has been running for over ten years now, has more than just "what's on" and is certainly more prevalent on the UNSW campus these days than Tharunka. Certainly if all else fails, than both articles (Tharunka and Blitz) should be merged into the Arc @ UNSW page similar to what is being proposed for the previous organisations pages at the moment (Talk here).Oppose merge CHANLORD [T]/[C]  17:06, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Tiddalik

message: ==Untitled==I have my doubts about the current "Origin" section. As a child growing up at Yuendumu in Central Australia, I heard this story from old Warlpiri people who told me that one of the standing rocks at Juka Juka that looked like a frog was part of this dreaming. Note there are "water holding" frogs around Yuendumu, but there are not eels, pelicans, or islands which were not included in the version I was told.
I suspect this is a very old tale that probably originated in Central Australia but spread widely and evolved to take on local details and relevance as it spread. The rainbow serpent tale another dreaming that is also widely known with many variants across Australia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DonovanBaarda (talk • contribs) 03:58, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Vũng Rô Bay incident

message: It was interesting to read of the Vung Ro Incident.  I was assigned to the 362nd Signal at Nha Trang (20-km south of Vung Ro) from June of 1964 to June of 1965.  The information we got was only rumor, but we expected it was related to an expected enemy Spring offensive.  There was only about 180 Americans at Nha Trang at the time, including two platoons from the 362nd, the 5th Special Forces Camp, the 8th Field Hospital and part of the 339th Transportation Company.  In early June 1965, about 5,000 Army soldiers landed in Nha Trang to open up a new Port Facility at Cam Ran Bay, 20 km south.  Nha Trang fell April 1, 1975.

Talk:Dimetric projection

message: The simulation games mentioned (as well as the Civilization series)use a very specific dimetric projection--the grid is always twice as wide as it is tall. (Ref: http://moonsims.asi.org/tech/objects-4.html) You get that view by rotating the object of interest by 45 degrees in the horizontal plan, then view from an infinite distance 30 degrees above the horizontal plane.
The 2:1 ratio (as well as having a height and width in even powers of 2) avoids a lot of floating point operations when you're painting the image on the screen.  Is there a name for that specific type of projection?  
Greg 06:00, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Informally I have often seen it called "2:1 isometric" by artists (as opposed to e.g. "4:3 isometric" used in some other games). This is simply the ratio of a single floor tile - so a "true isometric" tile would be "2:1.154" by that naming scheme. --Allefant 15:50, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Different? 

message: This article is in need of a good cleanup. Part of the problem is that the article both discusses Thai basil as one particular variety and discusses the three different types of basil used by Thais. Ideally, the latter would go into some other article, such as the Thai cuisine article or the main basil article (which itself needs to be rewritten to separate "basil" as a group (i.e., Ocimum spp.) from "sweet basil" (O. basilicum). In any event, it might be worthwhile to make this article about O. basilicum var. thyrsiflora, but devote a section to discussing the three varieties of basil in this article, since I would imagine a lot of people would expect to see that discussion in an article about Thai basil.
