Hi! In February and March 2007 you added some text to the article "Static pressure". I think this article is significantly in error, and has been since long before you made your additions. I have made my comments in the Discussion page. I am willing to re-work the article so I would be very glad if you look at the Discussion page and add your comments. Best regards.

Hi again Giuliopp. Thanks for your patience. I have assembled my response to your comprehensive contribution on the subject of static pressure, and posted it on the Static pressure talk page. Best regards. Dolphin51 ( talk) 05:06, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
Hi Giuliopp. I have posted again on the Static pressure Discussion page. Dolphin51 ( talk) 03:18, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
Giulopp: Glad you seem to like the Gman tag I gave you. If you could bring a flow to stagnation isentropically in tube with a denser liquid (i.e. water or mercury) and the other ed of the tube normal to the streamline. You of course would have the normal u-curve in it. What would the difference in column heights represent. Wouldn't that be the something close to the dynamic pressure? Mangogirl2 ( talk) 03:03, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Your point is too subtle for me. That difference in column height seems like a measurement to me. In fact I have used this technique for flow mapping in wind tunnels and around vehicles. I do not use just to determine the total speed of the vehicle as have some of your earlier comments about pitot-static tubes have implied. Mangogirl2 ( talk) 01:47, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Giuliopp: Sorry I torqued you off. I had more than one family member under my user name and decided to split myself off to a new name (while working on the trajectory optimization page. I cannot see how changing names during a typo session is a problem. The comment on the static pressue page was a silly impulse on my part but since it seemed already decided I thought it would be harmless. Obviously it bothered you and I apologize for that. Skimaniac ( talk) 04:23, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
Giuliopp: In the reply to me above I cannot find where I said the dynamic pressure entered one end of the tube. I believe I said the ram air enters one end of the tube. Please don't say the flow does not enter the tube because it is stagnated. There are streamlines in and out of the tube.--skimaniac
I've closed the report at
WP:SSP, as they've updated
User:Skimaniac to reflect the fact that their former account was at Mangogirl2 - I'll open dialogue with them to sort out redirecting the user page and user talk page of Mangogirl2 if they're no longer going to be using it. Thanks.

Giulio: I was hoping that you living in the EU you could help me out on something. I cannot remember the correct spelling for the French helo company Aerospatlie (doesn't look right to me either). If you could go the Grand Prairie, Texas page and fix the reference to that company. I would be most appreciative. Skimaniac ( talk) 02:37, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
Hi again Giuliopp! Some time ago an Editor visited Stall (flight) and added a new heading Accelerated stall. You added your excellent animated diagram Accelerated_stall.gif showing the forces on an aeroplane in turning flight. (I am most impressed by this animated diagram and I must congratulate you on it.)
On 9 August you revisited the topic, adding an explanation, and citing John Brandon’s web site The accelerated stall.
John Brandon is an acquaintance of mine and I disagree with what he has written so I contacted him and explained why I think his information is incorrect. He has replied, agreeing with my view. I understand he will rectify his web site when his time permits.
Here is my view of the matter. You may be interested in adjusting your text on Stall (flight). If not, I am willing to do so.
The stalling speed of an aeroplane or glider is measured using a slow, steady approach to the stall. The deceleration should be, nominally, one knot per second. When a test pilot investigates turning flight stalls he or she must also decelerate at about one knot per second. An accelerated stall is a manoeuvre in which the rate of deceleration towards the stall is significantly greater than one knot per second. In Flying Qualities and Flight Testing of The Aeroplane, (Blackwell Science Ltd (1996), Oxford,
ISBN
0-632-02121-7), Darrol Stinton writes (page 303):
Turning Flight and Accelerated Stalls
The difference between normal turning stalls and accelerated stalls lies in the rate of approach. Turning stalls are entered using not more than 30° of bank, but whereas speed is reduced at -1.0 knot/s in a turning stall, the accelerated stall is approached with an airspeed reduction up to -5 knot/s. … … During accelerated stall tests at constant applied ‘g’, airspeed reduces rapidly. In such tests the pilot is looking primarily at the adequacy of stall warning, particularly at aft CG and heavy weight in the take-off, en-route and approach/landing configurations.
Similar information is also available in Part 23 of the USA Federal Aviation Regulations, §23.203 titled “Turning flight and accelerated turning stalls”. (Prior to 1996, §23.203 used the expression accelerated stall, rather than the modern accelerated turning stall.) §23.203 distinguishes between turning flight stalls with deceleration of -1.0 knot/s; and accelerated turning stalls with deceleration between -3 and -5 knot/s. See FAR 23.203
For transport category airplanes, §25.201 also specifies deceleration of -1.0 knot/s, and decelerations greater than -1.0 knot/s, but FAR 25 does not use the expression accelerated stall; it simply refers to all banked stalls as turning flight stalls regardless of the rate of deceleration. See: FAR 25.201
My view is that the information presently at Accelerated stall would be entirely satisfactory if all references to accelerated stalls were changed to turning flight stalls. Do you agree? Dolphin51 ( talk) 06:12, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
On Orienteering, the frame around the symbol looks good. Thanks! That article has been selected for the upcoming Wikipedia CD, so we're pushing to improve it. More contributors are more than welcome. -- Una Smith ( talk) 16:40, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Hi Giulio, what makes you think that a composition recorded by the English Chamber Orchestra is not notable? -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 23:01, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
Thank you Giuliopp for your constructive criticism, comments, and help. I am new to Wiki and am learning the procedures. Please read my user page to learn who I am. Atomicjohn ( talk) 05:09, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
Hi Giuliopp, thank you for your many contributions to Wikipedia. I see you have been removing hatnotes from many articles. Readers arrive at articles via many different routes and often find themselves on the wrong page for many reasons. Hatnotes are very helpful for redirects to support readers moving on to find the right page. Please don't delete them. Thank you. Span ( talk) 22:04, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
I was like you up until not so long ago and thought that the more hatnotes the better. Then I figured out what disambiguation is really about and realised that a large number of current hatnotes are just unnecessary clutter. As it's often the case on WP, here too less is more. -- Giuliopp ( talk) 00:46, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
There is an extensive archive on the many struggles of incorporating or sub-dividing associate articles on the disappearance of Amelia Earhart. One of the main reasons not to divide the main article is that the disappearance theories are now inextricably linked to the Earhart mystique and serves to keep her in the public psyche.

Good news! You are approved for access to 80 million articles in 6500 publications through HighBeam Research.
Thanks for helping make Wikipedia better. Enjoy your research! Cheers, Ocaasi 15:29, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
When you made this title redirect to the primary topic, were you planning to change all the links to the article about the album? Right now they point to the primary topic, where the reader is then directed to the most pointless dab page I've ever seen. Hardly an improvement, is it?

Ciao, ho visto le foto che hai inserito della tomba di Ouspensky e mi chiedevo che tipo di interesse avevi per, quello che io reputo, uno dei più grandi personaggi dei nostri tempi. Roberto Xroberto77 ( talk) 09:16, 4 July 2013 (UTC) |
Ciao Roberto, grazie del caffè ma temo di doverti deludere: non nutro nessun interesse particolare per Ouspensky (che fino a poco fa non avevo mai sentito nominare). Sto semplicemente cercando di corredare quante più voci biografiche possibili con una foto del luogo di sepoltura, perlomeno di quei luoghi che mi capitano a tiro. Cordialità. -- Giuliopp ( talk) 20:59, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

I note you undid my edit to the "about"-template of Alula, arguing it is simpler. My point would be that it may be simpler but it is deceptive as well. The alula is not a feather. I'm not entering into an editing war as I regard this as a waste of time and energy, but I would appeal to your responsibility as a user to provide acurate information. Kind reards, -- Dwergenpaartje ( talk) 08:16, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
