Hi,
I was going to put the answers where you asked the questions, but I would probably get ripped apart (justifiably, if I'm wrong). I was about to delete what I wrote and then decided that if nobody else responds the following stuff may be a little useful.
Hopefully this isn't common knowledge.
1) How do the detectors that can be set up at either slit work?
2) What happens if you have 3 slits in a line? in a triangle shape? unevenly spaced? what if they are round pinholes rather than slits? I've never seen these variations mentioned. I assume that a different pattern appears on the screen for each arrangement of slits/holes.
3) Water waves sent through small gaps make a moving pattern on a screen as the waves move. Does the electron/photon pattern vary over time, or is it static? I don't remember from class, it's been a while!
4) If you gradually increase the separation of the slits, does there come a time where the photons/electrons no longer pass through both? Does each particle pass through both anyway? If not, then how, if you send them through 1 at a time, does a particle which passes through 1 slit only know the other slit is there?
5) If detectors on both slits detect 1 photon, I assume they slow it down but don't stop it, which makes it not coherant with say, another photon sent through the other slit at the same time? But the article says that the light doesn't have to be coherent for the diffraction pattern to show up.??
Well, nobody is really sure how many ships there were, as different sources give different numbers and combinations. There was a big discussion on comparing the sources a while back, but I'm not sure if it came to any real conclusion. Kirill Lokshin 04:35, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

... in the text of an article should have the format [[Month DD]], [[YYYY]] or [[DD Month]] [[YYYY]] but not [[Month DD]] [[YYYY]]. Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers) has more detail. :) Gazpacho 20:30, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
You will see that having gone back to the wikilinked dates, I have been sorting the appearance of the list so that the year is clearly seen. I think it willb e finished ina day or so and then we will have both an easily read list by year and functioning date preferences. On a separate note; "dude" is not an accepted form of address.

The article Action of 16 April 1695 has been nominated for deletion due to lack of sources demonstrating notability. Since you are an editor in good standing and continue to be interested in naval historical articles, I assume this is a workable stub, but it might help if you could expand the article or add sources showing why the battle is important, and come to AFD to resolve an apparent date problem. --Dhartung | Talk 22:17, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Re: List of naval battles (note lack of caps) There is nothing wrong with the links off the article. Those with action of are followed to the article (I just tried it) and clicking on a red link takes you to edit a new article. I think you are getting me confused with the editor that put all the dates including those that were part of an article name into datelink format. May I point out (again) that messages to me belong on my talk page not my user page. Otherwise I won't get "You have new messages" flagged up. GraemeLeggett 09:19, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I recently looked over your edits of Black Death. Although you marked the edits as minor, the change log showed the edits to be significant: . It took me a second look to see that you were mostly changing spacing. It would have been very helpful if you had provided an edit summary, and then I would have rested assured at first glance that you weren't a vandal. Just a note for the future.

Hi, I'm not a sysp but when reporting to WP:AIV can you please leave a short description, this makes it much easier for sysops to block users and it does ask for you to keep it short, if they vandalise after their last warning then just write something like:

Dear SpookyMulder, I'm not certain about using the usertalk facility on Wikipedia, so would appreciate - and indeed welcome - any exchange to be via email (you can reach me through sailing.navy@btinternet.com). I'm a naval historian, specialist in naval vessels of the Age of Sail and the author of several books on British (and other) warships on the pre-1900 era - perhaps you're familiar with my books on "The 50-gun ship" or "British Warships in the Age of Sail" (the latter is being published as a series in several volumes). I've undertaken a large amount of research over the years, both in Britain (I'm a reader at the NMM,PRO, etc), France and elsewhere, from which most of my information is taken (I have also benefitted from the original research of others who have generously passed their findings on to me). I have what I believe is a complete record of French Naval vessels from 1700 onwards (I will tackle the 17th century later). I have made a start on the articles on French ships of the Line and French sail frigates, but have an awful lot more work to do (frankly, the MAJORITY of ships are missing from the Wikipedia lists) which will doubtless occur piecemeal over coming months. I'd certainly welcome any help you care to give. Regards, Rif Winfield

Hello. Please be courteous to other editors and use edit summaries when updating articles. The Mathbot tool shows your usage of edit summaries to be very low:
Using edit summaries helps other editors quickly understand your edits, which is especially useful when you make changes to articles that are on others' watchlists. Thanks and happy editing! --Kralizec! (talk) 11:19, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on French ship Marat (1794), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}}
to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Gene Nygaard 10:55, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article List of Turkish early battleships, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Hi, I'm uncertain if you too are in favour of the title of the page to be changed to S-boat with a redirect from E-boat? I changed all the E's in the article text to S, but had the edit changed back to E. I tried again as it seemed that most people on the talk page agreed that they should be referred to as S-boats instead of E-boats, but again, it was changed back to E-boats. I never said the page should title should be changed, just the text, it seems weird to say E-boat then have an S number after it. What do you think? Troy von Tempest (talk) 07:54, 20 July 2018 (UTC)
