message: Origin no longer exists.  It was bought by EA, later turned into a team at EA, and then disbanded alltogether -- it no longer exists in any way, shape, or form.  The people who run UO are called the "UO Team" at EA now.

message: Found in the expansion section:
"Mondain's Legacy (August 30, 2005) Introduced a new race, elves, and a new skill, spellweaving. Several dungeons were also added. This is the only UO expansion to be released as a "download only" product."
Completely wrong, you could buy it at many places like walmart, kmart, etc, any of the big retailers, you might not have been able to find it though, because they didn't wheel out the display case with the products.

message: A couple weeks ago I removed several shard emu ext. links and someone just re-added them, dead links and all. I will go through and explain, one-by-one, why I removed those selected links: 
* Epsilon - dead link
* UOP (Ultima Online Project - never produced a release, just CVS snapshots from 3 years ago, site hasn't been updated since 2002
* Legend Server - leads only to an ad that has nothing to do with UO or emus
* Tupi Server Emulator - not updated since 2002
* Revelation - inactive since 2002, officially ended development in Sep 2003

message: In the article it states that when trammel was created mutual consent was needed to fight there. Can someone confirm this?

The only way you could fight in trammel had to do with guilds and factions but maybe thats what it means by consent? Either way maybe this needs to be clarified?

Talk:Overlay (programming)

message: I added a sentence that the Unix exec() function is essentially an overlay of all of a program's code.  Although usually used in conjunction with fork(), as that article suggests, it can be used to chain from one program to another - we used to call these core loads - or even to load a new program and later flip back and reload the original caller. Peter Flass (talk) 12:14, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Reviewing articles chain loading and overlay (operating system), I believe the two should be merged, and furthermore merged into this one.  I would also think that "overlay (operating system)" would rather have been about the use of overlays in OSs, such as DOS/360's use of logical and physical transient areas or OS/360's use on non-resident SVC routines.  Anyone have thoughts? Peter Flass (talk) 16:31, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Alternatives to overlays? 

message: While overlays originated on machines without virtual memory, they continued in use on machines with virtual memory, and their utility was in allowing programs to fit within an address space smaller than the total amount of code. Until MVS/XA, IBM had machines with physical memory larger than te address space, and other vendors did as well. Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 02:26, 5 August 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: According to the past productions section at Center Stage, Happy End was produced there in the 1994-95 season; "Happy End by Bertolt Brecht (book/lyrics) & Kurt Weill (music), Directed by Irene Lewis". I guess the reference in the article is to the version with the revised book/translation by Michael Feingold, although there is no listing for the show after the 94-95 production, so I do not know where it was performed (will check on this later).

replies: text: Also, the Latin word "maior" is a comparative, so if you wanted to quibble with the translation, the alternative would have to be something like "Greater" rather than a simple "Grand."

I have added the links for names in the article that I felt may either already be on Wikipedia or possibly should be.  I have also added minor content (mention of his other son, Leonard Slatkin).  Seeing that, on my original save, the 'wikify' box was added, I have attempted to do as much of that as I can.
