Never heard of "rounding"? How much accuracy is required? 6 in (152.4 mm) or 6 in (150 mm) or 6 in (152.40 mm)? With a 1710ci engine, a couple of cc won't even be noticed. The template works. Learn to use it. TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura 13:09, 25 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

With all the respect, dear… (which was your name again? I couldn't get it!) 2 mm in stroke are CRUCIAL in engine technology and I already 'rounded' to the integer mm, which is the maximum I could accept in a not technical dissertation. 150 or 152 are 3 digit numbers, which means that we guaranty an accuracy if 3 (AND NOT 2!!!) digits, so I didn't add precision adding digits but corrected a 3 digit number, which I did believe (strongly!) to be dutifull respect without sliding to fanaticism for accuracy. As for your examples, this cheap 'template' works disastrously: with 5 digit (4 of which 'significative', being the comma a digit which doesn't add accuracy but must be typed and takes uselessly a space!) it writes correctly all the first 4 significant digits, with 6 (5 significant) it doesn't add any information besides a kind of 'statement' about the construction tolerance (it means that the factory doesn't allow herself to produce an engine with more than a hundred of mm discrepancy between cylinders, With 3 digits -all significant!- the first 2 are correct, the third is absurd, technically and methodologically speaking. So let's leave for a moment the technology and let's focus on methodology: an accuracy of only 2 digits can't be taken seriously to reach a result with 5 digits of accuracy (the displacement is given twice -also metric!- with a 5 significant digit accuracy) and the displacement number is correct till the fifth significant digit ONLY if you put a bore of 139,7 (which I've 'tolerated' to not correct in 140, 'ROUNDING", as said, to not be particular) mm and 152,4 mm for the stroke. So I ask you COURTEOUSLY (for the sake of the seriosity and the respect of the readers whom we should not assume to be superficial IMPOSING our opinion about caring or not if we give numbers which give near half a litre (441 cc!!) more or less in an about 28 litre engine) to go straight and precise to the exact value (|-1|). I will insist on it while thanking you for having express frankly your opinion, giving me the opportunity to argue mine, for sure a bit 'German', which was my education, and of the nuclear engineer I am :-D Have a happy new year!

°K

I see you have made several edits where you changed the correct "kelvins" or "K" to the incorrect "°K". The symbol "°K" was abandoned in 1968. See Kelvin#History.--Srleffler (talk) 15:33, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

PS. The degree symbol is °, not ˚. They look almost identical, but they are two distinct characters.--Srleffler (talk) 15:38, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I thank you so much, Srleffler, for both your contribution to make me an a bit less ignorant contributor on Wikipedia. In 1968 I was in a 'sit-in' to show our sorrow for the death of Jan Palach and so I skipped the news :-)
For the difference between ˚ and º, by decades I used the ˚C instead ºC and no one was so kind to me (or so attentive like you) to correct me (and it's a matter of fact that it's even easier to be typed ;-) May I ask you why this apparently silly difference of characters? What should ˚ indicate?
By the way, I'm not used to communicate here and I miss a kind of internal chat system, so I don't know if you will read these lines of mine, which I wish, to can express you my sincere gratefulness (today I've learned also the meaning of   (not breakable space on HTML), option/alt + space on Mac, so necessary to prevent the quantity to be separated by the unit and that I added to any measure).— Preceding unsigned comment added by GianMarco Tavazzani (talk • contribs) 14:23, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Unicode is used internationally, to write text in many different languages and for many different applications. As a result, it has a lot of symbols, some of which end up being very simiar to others. The character ˚ is an accent used above letters in some northern European languages (eg. Å). Unicode of course has characters with the accent already included, but it also provides a character for the accent on its own, in case a typographer has to make the accented letter by overlying the accent on a regular letter for some reason. You can read more about this accent character at Ring (diacritic). I'm not so sharp-eyed as to spot the difference myself, by the way. I only noticed the wrong character because I tried to search and replace "°K" with "K" and didn't find anything.
It's normal on Wikipedia that one leaves a message on another user's talk page, one "watches" the page for a little while in case there is any response. You can "watch" any article or page by clicking the star in the header at the top of the page (not in your webbrowser's controls; in the page itself). If you then click the "watchlist" link at the top right of the screen, you'll see a list of all of your watched pages that have changed in the last few days. Every article also has a "talk" page, which can be used for discussion about the article. Discussion usually focuses narrowly on how to improve the article. General discussion of the topic is discouraged unless the goal is to improve the article. When you post on any talk page (including your own), you should add the characters ~~~~ at the end of your message. When you save the edit, the wiki will convert it into a "signature" that shows your username and the date and time. This is very helpful in making conversations easier to follow.
Yes, the non-breaking space is very useful, and belongs between numbers and unit symbols. Thanks for adding it in.--Srleffler (talk) 17:37, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You are a precious, kind and patient 'fellow', Srleffler! I learned and I will explore more about the use of the 'interacting capabilities' with 'colleagues' and Wikipedia. THANKS AGAIN! GianMarco Tavazzani (talk) 13:55, 6 August 2019 (UTC) :-)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Your reason here GianMarco Tavazzani (talk) 18:39, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

It's unclear what you are trying to do. In any case, your account is not blocked. If you are unable to edit, please exactly follow the instructions which appear when you attempt to do so. Yamla (talk) 19:59, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

{{unblock-auto|...}} Clearing an autoblock

Due to the nature of the block applied, we need additional information before we can decide whether to unblock you. It is very likely that you are not personally blocked. If you are prevented from editing, it may be because you are autoblocked or blocked because of your IP address. Without further details, there is nothing further we can do to review or lift your block. Please follow these instructions:

  1. If you have a Wikipedia account, please ensure that you are logged in.
    Your account name will be visible in the top right of this page if you are.
    If it isn't, try bypassing your web browser's cache.
  2. Try to edit the Sandbox.
    If you are able to edit the sandbox, you are not blocked from editing. Either the autoblock on your IP address has already expired, or you weren't blocked in the first place. Either way, you can resume editing.
  3. If you are still blocked, follow the directions below:
    1. Copy the {{unblock-auto|...}} code generated for you under the "Unblock request" section.
    2. Paste the code at the bottom of your user talk page, and click save.
      If you cannot edit your own talk page, use the Unblock Ticket Request System to make your request.


This user's request to have autoblock on their IP address lifted has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Accept reason: Your unblock request is hard to understand, but I think I fixed the problem. If you still encounter problems, please follow the instructions in the block message. It tells us things that we need to know to help you. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 21:54, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Even if "https://utrs-beta.wmflabs.org/public/appeal/view?hash=1ce562a9162155cf11bcd02ac66168a2" says the block to be expired, IT IS NOT nor I had an answer about which kind of block it was (IP? Autoblock?). Today I submitted another appeal with number 295067872c23c86a28eadb20c82b384f at 2022-08-06 18:59:45 but, when I checked it, it said 'NOT FOUND'

Appeal for "GianMarco Tavazzani" Appeal status EXPIRE Blocking administrator

Block reason

Time submitted 2022-08-02 11:49:12 Appeal content Why should you be unblocked? Before to can even be able to tell you "Why should [I] be unblocked?" I should know why I was and I don't know how to know it by myself by clicking some link or so, thus I beg you to know how to know it without asking YOU, stealing your precious time. All that I could know comes from a pop-up telling about: "The account $7 has been blocked (disabled) by $1 for the following reason(s): $2 This block will expire on $6." which, apart from the fact that I am not comfortable handling $ (here we use now €), doesn't mean too much to me. That's why I would also be thankful to you if you would be so kind to tell me how to decrypt this currency symbol preceding a single-digit number. Thank you for your time; mine, at my age (70!) does not matter too much: as less you have in front, as more you become patient ;-) GianMarco Tavazzani GianMarco Tavazzani (talk) 20:01, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
