Talk:Industrial applicability

message: re: "The industrial application requirement is related to the requirement of sufficiency of disclosure, i.e. the fact that a "patent application must disclose the invention in a manner sufficiently clear and complete for it to be carried out by a person skilled in the art". [3]"
- It seems to me that the board does not really intend to indicate a link between the requirements but merely notes that those of both articles will be failed in the case of a perpetual motion machine. In other cases there will be no such link. I propose deleting this paragraph Drshok
:Thanks for your note. I have added the condition: "When an alleged invention does not comply with the generally accepted laws of physics, ...". To me, it is interesting to present the possible link, in some cases (and at the EPO), between the non-susceptibility of industrial application and the sufficiency of disclosure, when the alleged invention cannot be carried out due to a violation of a fundamental physical law. --Edcolins 14:01, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Slave clocks

message: Can you tell me what the problem is?  These are clocks that are part of our heritage and there is not other reference to them elsewhere on wiki as far as I can tel.Deben Dave 21:56, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Wikipedia articles use the singular form for common nouns. This is the same subject as slave clock anyway. This article seems to suggest that the master clock provides actual electric power to the slave clocks rather than just a sync pulse, but as long as the purpose is synchronization, the difference is trivial even if correct. I'm not familiar with the subject, but I don't understand how or why a master clock would need to provide actual motive power to slave clocks, which have to be wired to the wall to get a sync pulse and might as well use mains power. --Tysto (talk) 07:06, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Talk:2006 Stanley Cup Finals

message: I have done some research to find more players who were on the roster during the 2006 Stanley Cup Finals.  I have found that David Gove, Keith Aucoin, and Craig Kowalski, were on the team's roster; but did not qualify to be engraved on the cup and didn't make an appearance.  I also found that they were also on the ice during the celebration and held the cup.  Should I cite sources, make a roster template, list them on the roster, and note that they did not qualify for being engraved on the cup?  108.0.244.168 (talk) 20:13, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Nothing should be done, only those who play in games are considered officially on the roster which is why they didn't get their names on the cup. -DJSasso (talk) 12:11, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It appears that you don't want me to list everyone who was in a Stanley Cup picture with a footnote that they did not appear, for some reason.  Some other Wikipedians, including Resolute, think that it's fine to present these facts if I can cite that they were in the picture.  What's wrong with including everyone in a team's celebration if it is a fact?  It appears that you might be some Devils fan who agrees with General Manager Lou Lamoriello, that only qualifying players should be in the team picture, like how Willie Mitchell wasn't in the picture in 2000; and trying to impose your beliefs on other teams.  That is subjective, which is irrelevant.  That is up to the teams.  It's objective, however, that most other teams include non-qualifying players in the team celebration.  They are on the roster in the sense that they are eligible to actually dress and play if the coach chooses to do so, even though they did not appear; but not, however, officially on the Stanley Cup roster engraved on the cup.  What is wrong with listing them in articles and distinguishing them from the official championship roster on the cup with a footnote?  108.0.244.168 (talk) 19:56, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: Regarding references. Most of the story is hard facts which are in  Barnes & al which don't seem to me to need indivual citations. The whole business of who gave it the name 'Spitfire' does imo need a cite because it is something most sources are vague about it, I think it's generally attributes toe the then chairman of Vickers? Mitchell is on record as disliking it... back to the subject of citations it seems to me  broadly that if the putative fact is from a source outside the major sources on the 224 (such as contemporary issues of Flight or refences in some individual's memoirs).TheLongTone (talk) 15:16, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  re-emphasis of article 

message: The article starts out with an assertion that Specification F7/30 was meant to produce a replacement for the Gloster Gauntlet - It wasn't. The Gauntlet hadn't even entered service properly when the Type 224 first flew. The F7/30 specification was meant to produce a successor to the Bristol Bulldog "Zone-fighter" (capable of use both in the day and at night with a radio) with a view to it approaching the level of performance of the then-new "interceptor" class (day only, no radio) Hawker Fury. The Gauntlet was ordered to specification 24/33, some three years after F7/30 was first drawn up and only the year before the type 224 flew. - Read "The British Aircraft Specification File" by K Meekoms and EB Morgan.

It refers as after the Spanish-American war it was decided that the US would take control of the islands and has been the only time the US has officially been an imperial power, President McKinley was advised by General Francis V. Greene that the "the least difficult and most profitable path [Green argued] was for the United States to retain all the islands and to provide in the best measure possible good government and economic development on behalf of the native popualtion."

message: My recollection, from what I read in a textbook in school, is that when Dewey's navy was leaving Hong Kong for Manila the British privately said to themselves, "Those Americans are such nice chaps. Too bad we'll never see them again." Or something to that effect, implying that the U.S. Navy would get thrashed by the Spanish (when in fact, the opposite happened. I can't seem to find this quote anywhere on the internet, and it may have just been hearsay, but this is the first time I've ever read about the British "cheering" the Americans. In fact Britain and America were naval rivals right up until the First World War. Is anybody else familiar with the quote I've mentioned, and if so, do you know where I can find it so I can insert it into the article? --Antodav2007 (talk) 22:18, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Cheering" 

message: Hi,
   I think the historically rilvarly between the US and UK Navies was more to do with the legacy of Impressment, but this was stopped by the British in 1812 (which made the War of 1812 pointless.. but thats a whole new article!). The naval rilvarly with the USA only really became significant after the First World War- remember that before this the UK felt itself comfortable ahead compared to the US. I mean, the UK dispensed any possible war senarios against the US in.. I think 1904? So they wern't too concerned with a war anyway.
I think I do remember the quote you mentioned in my readings but I'm afraid I can't help with what book- it was a while ago and they got put back in the library!

Talk:William Brown (fictional boy)

message: There are too many pages for this topic. They should sensibly be merged as follows:
* Just William - main page, linked from
* William Brown (disambiguation)
* this page  - merged as proposal into Just William
* Outlaws (fictional characters) - already speedied into main page
* William Brown - individual books on their own page, linked from Just William
* William Brown - television series, etc linked from Just William or maybe on that page
There is an existing category for this topic and it needs looking at. It lists all the books and thus there should be articles for all the books, or the category needs pruning. My own take is that although these books are important in their own context, that context is currently not seen as being that important; however, in the long term, as a mirror of family, cultural and political issues of their times, seen and interpreted through the eyes of a young boy, makes an encyclopedic treatment arguably irresistible as a social document.
