Talk:Spiral bevel gear

message: Funny there is no mention of Nikola J. Terbo ? see http://mainfiancial.com/know-how/1503.html  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.243.106.82 (talk) 18:58, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nikola J. Terbo 

message: Hypoid gears are nearly universal in right angle drives.  To say that some trucks still use them is inaccurate.  It would be far more valuable to dig out just when machinist expertise and metallurgical alloys were adequate to pursue this design.  (I would guess in the 1920s, but I will look more before making such a statement.)  Also, it should be stated that with a hypoid gearset, multiple teeth are giving and receiving torque simultaneously.  (worm-sector and bevel gear sets involve nearly all power on one tooth each of the driven gear and the rotated gear--much more likely to fail through breakage)  It might not be an overstatement to suggest that the hypoid gears in the differential of a modern front drive or rear drive automobile or truck is the mechanical component least likely to fail, even after hundreds of thousands of miles.
A hypoid gearset is also one of the quietest ways to arrange a right angle power transfer.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.41.34.187 (talk) 23:17, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

message: Both Spiral angle and Spiral bevel gear have the same creator and the same single source.

Talk:Wigan (UK Parliament constituency)

message: The 'town of' Wigan, named 'Wigan', is a CONSERVATIVE town.  The outlying towns, which are not Wigan but are within the Metropolitan Borough of Wigan, are traditionally Labour strongholds. 'Wigan' is not.
There is a massive difference between 'Wigan' and Wigan 'Metropolitan Borough', which consists of many towns joined together for administrative purposes. Wigan is but one of these many towns.
This very fact renders this article worthless and, until these discrepancies are corrected, Wikipedia will remain unreliable as a source of correct information.

Talk:3 Canadian Forces Flying Training School

message: Hi .  I have a question about your removal of the badges from the bottom of the page a few days ago.  Presumably the set of badge images could never fit Wikipedia:NFCC#8 or not without significant commentary about them being added (which seems unlikely).  This wasn't just an issue with them being deleted from the commons and moved back to en, so adding a free-use rational won't help because of NFCC#8?  Cheers--Otus scops (talk) 23:14, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Basically. Since the files are labeled as non-free vs the old free status, they are under a completely different set of usage rules. Those rules really restrict what can be used. In this case the badges dont meet those requirements. Werieth (talk) 23:20, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Grade skipping

message: I added back the sentence on difficulties with social maturity. This is because students usually skip grades because of their intellectual maturity, but this does not necessarily go along with their social maturity. Also, while it may be best in many cases for students to wait until they're socially mature enough for the next grade, this is not always the practice, and is a potential source of problems for the student. I think it's best to mention this in the article.
I'm trying to find some good sources for this right now, and I'll add them in when I get them. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 19:56, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Everything I've read on this point suggests that this problem is quite rare, especially in the most common skip, which is just a single grade.

message: This article reads too much in favor of grade skipping without even discussing potential drawbacks.  Powers T 19:27, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I know multiple people who skipped one grade, and I know none who think it was bad for them.  More to the point, the published research says that it's far from being "deeply, deeply wrong".  It is generally not harmful for appropriately selected students, just like redshirting is generally not harmful for appropriately selected students, even though some of these older students feel bored with too-easy school work and feel socially disconnected from their too-young classmates.  That usually means they weren't appropriately selected, and is not evidence that others shouldn't be allowed to do it.  We need to be careful to avoid turning "I had a bad experience" into "it's bad for everyone". WhatamIdoing (talk) 06:07, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Sium suave

message: Based on sources such as this; http://www.life.illinois.edu/downie/Spalik_Sium_cpDNA.pdf
"The genus Sium includes twelve species that are widely distributed in Eurasia, North America, and sub- Saharan Africa (Pimenov & Leonov, 1993; Spalik & Downie, 2006). The Eurasian members include S. frigi- dum, S. latifolium, S. medium, S. ninsi, S. serra, S. sisa- rum, S. sisaroideum, S. suave, and S. tenue (the author- ships of the species names considered in this study are given in the Appendix). Sium suave occurs also in North America. In sub-Saharan Africa, the genus is represented by S. repandum; two additional species, S. burchellii and S. bracteatum, occur on the island of Saint Helena.",
I am pretty confident that the native range of Sium suave is Eurasian/American, and that someone who doesn't know much about botany has been confused by the fact that there are other members of the Sium genus native to Africa. I have edited this article to reflect my understanding. If anyone can find a reliable source for the claim that this species "comes from Africa", they are welcome to add it back in.
