  • 12:2412:24, 14 May 2024 diff hist −21‎ Trading Places ‎ →‎Critical response: Corrected errant reference to "financial system" as insider trading is not part of this system. Also removed laughable modern reference to "dismantling the financial system" two protagonists in one comedy are unlikely to dismantle any system. Indeed no individuals can ever "dismantle" any system. They can however expose and possibly influence or shape it. Does the contributor honestly believe that anyone ever expected a story arc where Winthrope and Valentine stir up so... Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 12:1512:15, 14 May 2024 diff hist +44‎ Trading Places ‎ →‎Critical response: Incorrect reference to "financial system" corrected. The article does not refer to the financial system. Clearly the system appeared to function correctly in the movie, the corruption was the insider trading based on espionage. None of that is, or has ever been part a designed part of the "financial system". It could be described as a vulnerability of the system, but that's no different to how armed bank robbery is part of the financial system Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 12:0712:07, 14 May 2024 diff hist +2‎ Trading Places ‎ →‎Critical response: Incorrect paraphrase from the citation, corrected with the verbatim. Only an idiot would assert that "money isn't important". It is extremely important to the vast majority of people on the planet. Even if they are content with their wealth or income they would concede that their lives would be drastically affected if they suffered new or worsened financial hardships Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 11:5811:58, 14 May 2024 diff hist +14‎ Trading Places ‎ →‎Plot: In correct refence to 'street smarts'. The whole movie is about nature, nurture and it unfolds that nurture is the winner, for these protagonists. This reference to street smarts is probably confusion regarding Valentine's application of human psychology to the prediction of trader behaviour Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 11:5311:53, 14 May 2024 diff hist −13‎ Trading Places ‎ →‎Plot: Removed ideologically charged reference which attempts to assert a far broader set of hierarchies than treated in the movie Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 11:4811:48, 14 May 2024 diff hist −93‎ Trading Places ‎ Removed redundant hyperbole, every film has been reassessed, and always will. Every film receives positive and negative reviews. If there is a relevant review from time of release, based on the society it was created for (as a beautiful, diverse work of social satire for the time) then it must be supported by citation Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 11:4411:44, 14 May 2024 diff hist −84‎ Trading Places ‎ Irrelevant revisionist commentary removed. If a political point is to be made of this masterpiece of diversity then it must be supported by citation Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 11:4011:40, 14 May 2024 diff hist −272‎ Trading Places ‎ Irrelevant and incorrect reference to a sub-genre of romantic comedy. The two main protagonists have no romantic relationship. If this is deemed relevant it must be supported by citation. Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 00:1500:15, 14 May 2024 diff hist +79‎ Trading Places ‎ →‎Plot: It can't be coincidence that they were Long Squeezed on Orange Juice. A very humourous film with a very humourous ending. Tags: Reverted Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 10:3610:36, 6 June 2023 diff hist +31‎ North American Charging Standard ‎ It is not law that Tesla use CCS on their cars or on their charging equipment. The 2014 directive has an exemption for single manufacturer networks (so as not to hold the huge benefits that Tesla has given to electrification in the EU). Tesla voluntarily moved their cars to CCS so that owners have a better experience with more choice on where to charge. Tesla voluntarily added this to their charging network. The only inducement of any kind is that government funding would of course be predica... Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 11:0511:05, 6 June 2022 diff hist +9‎ Lunar Roving Vehicle ‎ →‎Mass and payload: Further fixes to tense. The rovers are multiple and still extant, and may be reused, but will definitely be preserved. Past tense can apply to verbs ("were mounted") but the frame(s) ARE a certain length, and the HAVE two seats. We're going back, and thet are waiting to be used again.

  • 11:0011:00, 6 June 2022 diff hist 0‎ Lunar Roving Vehicle ‎ →‎Features and specifications: Fixed tense in two places, the vehicles are still there, and it is suspected that by merely replacing the battery they can be used again. Also the correct term is BEV. Electric powered is a far more vague legacy term Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit
  • 10:4310:43, 6 June 2022 diff hist +2‎ Lunar Roving Vehicle ‎ The platform incorrectly modified "drivetrain" to hybrid drivetrain. This vehicle is not hybrid. Also drivetrain includes motors, inverter and should really include battery, so transmission is the correct term anyway Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit

  • 23:4023:40, 27 November 2021 diff hist −38‎ Themyscira (DC Comics) ‎ Removed deeply offensive leap of logic. The reference of it being a single gender world is a factual observation. To say that it is regarded as a feminist utopia is an insult to feminists. For the simple reason that regarding a world with no men in it as a utopia, is essentially the very definition of hate speech. Replace 'men' with any ethnicity or sexuality and this will become patently obvious. Yes there is a the technicality that single-gender worlds are listed under feminist utopias the...
