Tylium

edit

Episode "1 x 10"? As far as I can see there is no such episode so what are you talking about? Plus you still haven't given the reference to the article. You have to add it to the main page - not make one up for the talk page. Cyberia23 21:51, 1 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

I see what you did, you're talking about "Hand of God". I myself don't recall the discussion of Tylium's scientific properties - so MatthewFenton said he'd check the episode. Sorry about the misunderstanding. The way it appeared and because I didn't remember the dialog made it look suspiciously made up. Cyberia23 22:08, 1 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Manufacturer

edit

Hi, I removed this addition from the infobox as unlike things such as weapons or fighters a manufacturer doesn't really have any bonded relationship with the spacecraft, they only build (not to mention you can have several manufactures) Matthew 08:53, 12 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Yes. Bracketed plurals should be avoided, that's not the point, however. Infobox Fictional Spacecraft was designed to be about the ship, i.e. it's contents, etc. Your addition is something that's generally minor in sf, e.g. the 'Toga in SAaB, it's built by Aero-Tech JLOA, yet that's nothing critical to the ship its self, none the less if you wish, you could start a thread on the discussion page and if people concur with you then I will accept that consensus.

Lucida typeface edits

edit

Hi Ylai. In your recent edit to the article on the typeface Lucida you add the pasage "Bigelow & Holmes, together with Y&Y." I wonder if you could please include a brief explanation of Y&Y? For some users it is likely self evident, for others it is not. Thanks. CApitol3 13:17, 5 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Plot of parton distribution functions

edit

The plot showing different parton distribution functions does not state which hadron the parton belongs to. I assume it is a proton so I have added this to the image text. If this is not correct please correct it. --Skou 10:38, 19 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Revision to Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire and Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri articles

edit

I noticed that you have revised either Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri or Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire.

I intend to revise those articles following the Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Article guidelines. There are more details on the discussion pages of those articles. I'd be interested in any comments you have. It would be best if your comments were on the discussion pages of the two articles.

Thank you.
