Talk:Department of Defense

message: This redirect to United States Department of Defense has been longstanding and many articles use it to redirect there. While it may help with standardization to point this redirect to Ministry of Defence, all the existing links to this article would need to be checked for their intended destination and pointed to United States Department of Defense if that is where they were intended before the change in made. Perhaps the recent change should be reversed in the interim? Whizz40 (talk) 05:35, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Truffle (disambiguation)

thread_title: Untitled

message: (please discuss here)
Currently, Truffle is a disambiguation page and this article, on truffles, is Truffle (fungus).  That seems strange.  I think the history is that at some point, Truffle was moved to Tuber (the truffle genus), and Truffle became a dab page.  I would think it would make more sense for Truffle to be the main article, and to have a Truffle (disambiguation) page.  Maybe also a hatnote for chocolate truffles, if that's a common confusion. --Macrakis (talk) 16:27, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

The contested parts are the following:
# A unique Flight Demonstration was performed by the Patrouille Suisse on September 7, 2014 at the Air14 Air Show in Payerne as they flew a 15-plane display with the PC-7 Team.http://www.air14.ch/internet/air14/en/tools/Info_medias/info_300814_1500.html Originally sourced with an unsuitable YouTube-clip, it is now sourced with a related source. No independent sources for this "unique Flight Demonstration" that seems to be a once of.
# A Pilatus PC-6 V-622 "Felix", painted in Patrouille Suisse colours, transports the commander, announcer and the team groundcrew. To my opinion not a member of the showteam but a special painted transport plane.
To my opinion, both sections are irrelevant and could be left out of the article without any damage. The Banner talk 19:42, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Ștefan Birtalan

message: Or both?
I gather that Birtalan was a Hungarian-speaking Romanian — not surprising for somebody from Transylvania. But shouldn't we clear up this business about his given name? The article title uses "Ștefan", whereas the infobox uses "István". Shouldn't both the article text and the infobox mention both names, if both were in common use?
Since Birtalan's name was never exactly a household word in the English-speaking world, I don't think we could apply the rule about the commonly used name in English, and so I think precedence should be given to the form that Birtalan himself preferred. Which one was that? Did he like being called Ștefan, or István? I rather imagine it was the latter, but I might be wrong.
Anyway, we should have something a bit better than the confusing situation that we have right now — an article title and an infobox title that disagree with each other. Now, I don't quite know how it should be; so somebody else will have to sort it out and make it into something a bit less confusing. Kelisi (talk) 17:25, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Meyers

message: I have restored the red-linked names because they represent names linked in the blue-linked articles in their descriptions. And I don't see what sense it makes to delete red-linked names but leave all the unlinked ones. There's certainly no basis in terms of notability. Are the deleted people really less notable than "wife of Kris Kristofferson" or "husband to Countess Marie Larisch von Moennich" (both of which also represent names mentioned, though not linked, in WP articles)? We might debate whether or not all those unlinked names belong, but if another editor has deemed a person sufficiently noteworthy to red link them in an article, they shouldn't be eliminated from the dab page--not without, at least, looking at the article in which they are linked and judging case by case. --ShelfSkewed Talk 19:38, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Clíodhna

message: Could somebody please do me a little favour.
That is to correct the spelling of Cliodna on the following page  
In this line of text the letter "h" is omitted:
It is also probable that another daughter was Cliodna, but sources treat this differently
Also for what it's worth, most users will search using the anglisised name. ~shrug~ 
Cliona is an anglisised version of the Gaelic name Cliodhna. It might be worth listing them as synomyns or something like that; as I drew a blank searching for Cliona's wave, but did eventually find this page [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cliodhna]
She is one and the same legendary character, ie. Cliona = Cliodhna

message: RTCA devoted substantial energy to addressing this matter internally.  RTCA provides guidance, in its documents, not standards.  The difference is that there is no "standard" means for complying wiuth the document.  And, as determined by the FAA (in the U.S.), if an equivalent or greater level of safety and reliability can be established by another means, the FAA will accept this other means.
RTCA's role is that of a technical expert.  This is not hte same thing as regulation, but is part of regulation.  RTCA has no regulatory authority but is extremely proficient in its ability to form teams with members from academic, commercial, and government institutions, who also speak different languages, and enage disprate regulatory agencies.
In my opinion, the cost of attaining an RTCA publication makes them less accessible than may be desired but their value exceeds this cost.  Outside of the many TSOs issued by the FAA, the only reference to DO-178B also refers to DO-254 and is a book entitled, "Avionics Certification: A Complete Guide to DO-178 (Software), DO-254 (Hardware)".

thread_title:  Curcumin web sites 

message: I have deleted a part of the lede as it is unreferenced, out of place, and conflicts with other articles here on the same subjects.
The passage deleted is in bold:
"A curcuminoid is a linear diarylheptanoid, with molecules such as curcumin or derivatives of curcumin with different chemical groups that have been formed to increase solubility of curcumins and make them suitable for drug formulation. These compounds are natural phenols .."
The lede of the Diarylheptanoid article states:
"The diarylheptanoids are a relatively small class of plant secondary metabolites. .. They can be classified into linear (curcuminoids) and cyclic diarylheptanoids. The best known member is curcumin, .. "
A curcuminoid is a linear diarylheptanoid, and a diarylheptanoid is a plant secondary metabolite, and, as this article itself later makes clear, the chemicals used to increase solubility are not in themselves curcuminoids.  Curcumin is a curcuminoid, as too is demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin - see e.g [Turmeric|Turmeric]].
I have edited the lede accordingly, but if the deleted passage is nevertheless correct and relevant is some manner, then that should be made clear by means of suitable contextualization and reference (and the other articles corrected accordingly) before adding it back in.

thread_title:  Timeline 

message: The article mentions the device aka "Stevens lanyard," but why no further mention of the inventor of the Stevens Release (as I learned of it while jumping at his "Stevens Paraloft" in Antioch, CA circa 1978)?  Perry D. Stevens invented the RSL and chose not to patent it to allow widespread proliferation.  Virtually every military on Earth with a paratrooper force had RSL's in use within 10 years I was told.  Who knows how many countless lives were saved by his invention?  Stevens died March 24, 2018 from cancer.  (RIP)  I wish there was a Wikipedia page on him.  He was one of the early pioneers of skydiving.  He was known for his stern, firm and demanding militaristic type training to assure high safety-consciousness.  I recall my pre-first jump training.  In the training barn you'd hang from a mock parachute and he'd be shaking your harness violently so you're flopping around uncontrollably while he's yelling at you describing different kinds of chute malfunctions so you'd have to rectify the situation while he was shaking and yelling at you with the altitude dropping, obviously trying to build confidence so you could handle a real emergency if ever needed.  He was also very critical when giving a random inspection of the chute that you packed for yourself before a jump - which we all appreciated even/especially if a flaw, however minor, was found.  And believe me, he'd find them all. SanJoseRobert (talk) 22:21, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

Talk:99-yard pass play

message: Pardon my ignorance, but what is being measured here?  Surely not the distance the football was thrown.  Is it from where the quarterback was standing to the goal line?  Or from the line of scrimage to the goal line? Northwestgnome (talk) 15:18, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: These plays were ones where the quarterback threw from the end zone. The pass went varying distances to the receiver, who ran for a touchdown. The line of scrimmage was the 1 yard line. Thus the record books and spportswriters call it a 99 yard pass. In the ones I have looked up in old newspapers so far, the pass ranged from 3 to 44 yards. Passing from the end zone is extremely risky, since an interception is likely to result in the other team scoring immediately or in the 4 play series. It is more likely as a desparation play by a losing team late in the game. I've found no cases, and expect to find none, where a QB threw the ball from one end zone to a receiver in the other end zone. There is also some uncertainty as to exactly what yard line the receiver was on when he caught it, like Studstill's reception being on the 44 or 45 per UPI and AP respectively.

*The inside (WP) notability is ascertained by three references : I created this stub against the red links I found haphazard. 
The process is making the stub richer with external information and references if needed and more links that are examples of the trust's action. It is not tagging quicker and quicker.
