10 June 2016
- 23:2023:20, 10 June 2016 diff hist +16 Mercury-Atlas 1 Since this is a paraphrase of a quote (and not a direct quote), we may improve it for readability, etc.
- 22:2622:26, 10 June 2016 diff hist −7 Advanced Cryogenic Evolved Stage Calling it what it really is and was linked to. "Energy" is also different than delta-v and it's delta-v that's needed for such a mission.
- 22:2022:20, 10 June 2016 diff hist −11 Advanced Cryogenic Evolved Stage Rmvd complification that made no sense because you *must* escape to be "interplanetary". Escape speed varies (by direction relative to moon, or by moon slingshot), but you still must get to that speed. This finer point is unimportant in lede too.
- 22:0222:02, 10 June 2016 diff hist +23 Centaur (rocket stage) →Double Bulkhead: A surprising purport needs a source.
- 21:5321:53, 10 June 2016 diff hist −3 Centaur (rocket stage) →Double Bulkhead: "low" TC is relative, what a vacuum does is *decrease* TC. Also a reduced TC never fully "prevents" all heat xfer, it just *reduces* heat xfer.
- 21:4921:49, 10 June 2016 diff hist +27 Centaur (rocket stage) Moved "double-bulkhead" to main body. Lead should be a summary of major points mentioned in the body. Body didn't mention this and it was not important enough to keep in lead.
9 June 2016
- 18:3218:32, 9 June 2016 diff hist −168 McHale's Navy (1997 film) Removed off-topic, unnotable digression. (This kind of thing is especially out of place in the lede section.)
- 00:1500:15, 9 June 2016 diff hist +2 ECryptfs added the ref that someone was complaining about being wanting.
8 June 2016
- 19:1019:10, 8 June 2016 diff hist −15 Recliner →History: "Father of the recliner"? Who says? Removed unsupported subjective melodrama. Added tag for unsupported assertion about initiating wide use.
- 18:5818:58, 8 June 2016 diff hist −21 Chaise longue →Origins: distinctive schmistinctive :-) (Removed subjective frill which is unencyclopedic.)
6 June 2016
- 19:3919:39, 6 June 2016 diff hist −24 Satellite Internet access →Geostationary unsuitable for low-latency applications: reduced overstatement and frilly "orders of magnitude".
5 June 2016
- 07:5807:58, 5 June 2016 diff hist −1 Helen Hunt typo
4 June 2016
- 17:3717:37, 4 June 2016 diff hist −5 Becky Ann Baker "best" is subjective, uncited
- 10:3410:34, 4 June 2016 diff hist −169 Sabal palmetto →Sabal 'Lisa': Google street view imagery from February 2015 and Google aerial view imagery from February 2016 show this to not be (or no longer be) the case.
- 10:1210:12, 4 June 2016 diff hist −101 Sabal palmetto →Cultivation and uses: "Alarming" is subjective/unencyclopedic. "Raising sea level" is dubious, uncited, vague. Amount of raise (if any) is probably too small to cause notable mortality (i.e. *mortality* by "RSL" is dubious/uncited).
1 June 2016
- 16:0216:02, 1 June 2016 diff hist −25 Dynamite →Form: It's unnecessary to specify units here.
29 May 2016
- 23:3223:32, 29 May 2016 diff hist −87 Flash (photography) →Electronic flash: not true (i.e. dubious and uncited). In the USA, electronic flash is called "electronic flash". :-) .
24 May 2016
- 18:1018:10, 24 May 2016 diff hist +25 Non-directional beacon →Technical: "Technical" was a little ambiguous, overly generic. Changed to "Antenna and Signal Characteristics".
- 18:0518:05, 24 May 2016 diff hist +256 Low-frequency radio range →Non-directional beacons: Rearrangement of paragraph(s) for smoother flow. Split up some long sentences.
- 17:4617:46, 24 May 2016 diff hist −7 Low-frequency radio range →Non-directional beacons: Removed a few extraneous characters.
- 17:4517:45, 24 May 2016 diff hist −301 Low-frequency radio range →Non-directional beacons: Removed very digressive detail which was not necessary here because it is covered in the NDB main article, and which was added in a way which three times derailed the reader off the original meaning of the sentence.
- 17:4017:40, 24 May 2016 diff hist −1 Low-frequency radio range →Non-directional beacons: fixed small typo, split up long sentence
- 17:3817:38, 24 May 2016 diff hist −142 Low-frequency radio range →Non-directional beacons: LFR is only mentioned here as an intro to NDB. Removed distracting digressive detail about LFR which was already covered elsewhere and was not germane to the NDB.
23 May 2016
- 02:3102:31, 23 May 2016 diff hist +33 Apsidal precession →Newton's theorem of revolving orbits: A radial force not affecting the radial motion of a free particle violates Newton's own F=ma. The way this is phrased is self-contradictory and therefore *inscrutable*. Can someone fix it before it's removed?
- 02:2602:26, 23 May 2016 diff hist −118 Apsidal precession →General relativity: That rotation of apsides can happen w/ only a *radial* force is dubious & uncited (enough to be removed immediately). That GR has effect of making an effective 1/r4 force would, if true, be surprising enough to require a citation.
- 02:0202:02, 23 May 2016 diff hist +320 Apsidal precession →Newton's theorem of revolving orbits: Removed "superseded" because it was never really in use. Added that it *is* historically notable, but not valid (due to the non-existent inverse-cube force it predicted/required).
- 01:3301:33, 23 May 2016 diff hist +5 Talk:Apsidal precession →Perturbation theory section still vague, uncited, and now it's dubious.: typos
21 May 2016
- 23:2623:26, 21 May 2016 diff hist +1,502 Talk:Apsidal precession →Perturbation theory section still vague, uncited, and now it's dubious.
20 May 2016
- 23:5523:55, 20 May 2016 diff hist +110 Apsidal precession →Newton's theorem of revolving orbits: Split up long sentence. Made it a little more clear that this model is *not* a valid one. Maybe that's why he didn't promote it?
- 23:3123:31, 20 May 2016 diff hist +1,211 Talk:Apsidal precession →Perturbation theory section still vague, uncited, and now it's dubious.
- 23:0923:09, 20 May 2016 diff hist −108 Apsidal precession The change actually added vagueness and dubiousity. I'll explain more about what I mean on the talk page...
9 May 2016
- 16:1516:15, 9 May 2016 diff hist −12 Apsidal precession →Newton's theorem of revolving orbits: Removed subjective "intriguing".
- 09:4009:40, 9 May 2016 diff hist +72 Talk:Apsidal precession →Perturbation theory section still vague, uncited, and now it's dubious.
- 09:3809:38, 9 May 2016 diff hist +281 Talk:Apsidal precession →Perturbation theory section still vague, uncited, and now it's dubious.
- 09:3509:35, 9 May 2016 diff hist +33 Talk:Apsidal precession Separated out that dangling reference.
- 09:3309:33, 9 May 2016 diff hist −104 Apsidal precession As per Mmeijeri's suggestions. It still has the "method vs. model" apples v. oranges comparison (making it inscrutable) which needs to be addressed.
- 03:1303:13, 9 May 2016 diff hist +2,386 Talk:Apsidal precession →Perturbation theory section still vague, uncited, and now it's dubious.: new section
- 02:2302:23, 9 May 2016 diff hist +124 Apsidal precession →Perturbation theory: Added Skorekeep's words from his/her edit summary.
8 May 2016
- 05:4505:45, 8 May 2016 diff hist −146 Apsidal precession So you know it, and now I know it, and edit summary readers know it, but it isn't clear in the actual writing. You're better able to fix it than me so could you do that? (adding a source too please?) In the meantime it's vague, ambiguous, and uncited.
- 05:3505:35, 8 May 2016 diff hist −104 Dolly Sisters Removed caption containing unencyclopedic poorly-justified speculation ("presumably").
7 May 2016
- 03:5203:52, 7 May 2016 diff hist +7 Ciudad Juárez It's a collage (not a montage). :-) .
- 03:0303:03, 7 May 2016 diff hist −146 Apsidal precession →Perturbation theory: Removed unsourced and ambiguous remarks about perturbation theory. More accurate than what?
5 May 2016
- 17:3417:34, 5 May 2016 diff hist −46 Ribblehead Viaduct →History: Simplified sentence for flow (mostly by the removal of excessive extraneousity).
- 17:2717:27, 5 May 2016 diff hist +44 Ribblehead Viaduct →History: "Humber car" is not a well-known term (is it a type of rail car for example?). Added link for context, changed "car" to "automobile" to distinguish it from a "rail car".
- 17:1917:19, 5 May 2016 diff hist −395 Ribblehead Viaduct Whoops, finished previous edit.
- 17:1817:18, 5 May 2016 diff hist +388 Ribblehead Viaduct Revised detail-by-digression long (run-on?) sentence to be a little easier to follow (I hope).
- 16:4516:45, 5 May 2016 diff hist −377 Jericho (2016 TV series) Removed WP:OR (orig analysis from primary source). Also not Notable, films like this are rife with such language modernisms. (We wouldn't say something set in Elizabethan times is "inaccurate" when characters speak in modern English.) Tag: section blanking
- 10:2610:26, 5 May 2016 diff hist −1 Chingachgook Tense. The book "is", and the character "is" in the books. It's not like the character "was" in the books and is no longer.
- 09:4209:42, 5 May 2016 diff hist +11 On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog →Context: "was now" --> "had by then become"
- 01:3801:38, 5 May 2016 diff hist −51 Vandenberg Space Force Base →Early space exploration: Removed vague "worn out" explanation that wasn't given in the cited ref.
