::Is the dragon meant to be identical between the coat of arms and the flag? Just asking, since that coat of arms image that you sent is by far the highest quality version I've been able to find, so I'd like to use it as a reference for both.

:::Also, and sorry that I didn't make this clearer in the original request, but the corrected version of the COA should actually have the surrounding embellishments along with the shield (namely the yellow crown/castle at the top, the yellow branches on both sides, and the intertwining scroll with the words "WAR EVEZ"), as in the link. Any chance that could be rectified in the new version of the file as well? Sorry again for the hassle.

File:GL Mk. II radar transmitter.jpg|The receiver side of the system
</gallery>
 
;Article(s):
: [[GL Mk. I radar]]
;Request:
:I would like to get separate illustrations of the two main parts of the system in this article, the transmitter and receiver. The image I've linked to above is the receiver. It is not obvious due to the low quality of the image, but the important part is a series of horizontal metal rods in front of the lower truss work that form the main antenna.

The only photograph I have found of the transmitter is [http://www.theobservationpost.com/blog/?attachment_id=2202 here]. It has even less detail than the image above though. I have also found an old illustration of it, but it is blacklisted so I can only suggest that one goes to https://en . topwar . ru to their page at /199210-britanskie-i-amerikanskie-radiolokatory-perioda-vtoroj-mirovoj-vojny-ispolzovavshiesja-v-sovetskoj-pvo.html. The image is about half way down the page (yellowish). The transmitter is overall very similar to the receiver in that it is a box on top of a gun carriage, and differs mostly in the details of the antenna and truss work. 

It is quite difficult to see the receiver antennas in the photograph, you can see a series of rods at the top of the lower truss, but I don't believe that is them, there is another row of rods below it but they are very difficult to make out. The illustration also lacks detail of the receiver antenna, but they would look very similar to the two seen on the transmitter.

::@[[User:Maury Markowitz|Maury Markowitz]] Is it an line illustration [https://www.ausairpower.net/XIMG/Fan-Song-Variants-S.png like this] or a more realistic (photo like) one you are looking for.  --''always ping me''-- [[User:Goran tek-en|Goran tek-en]] ([[User talk:Goran tek-en|talk]]) 16:05, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
::{{ping|Goran tek-en}} The first reference has the best quality and I think mostly you can use that as a guide. The first of the two images is the transmitter, which matches the one I have in the article. The active part of this system are a series of antenna "elements" (which together make the antenna as a whole) made from "have-wave dipoles", which are simply two wires placed end-to-end with a gap between them an a total length across the two one-half of the radio wavelength. The idea is like a guitar, if your "string" is one-half the wavelength of the note you play it will resonate, as long as you pluck it somewhere near the middle. Here you "pluck" it with an electrical generator connected at the mid-point.
::An interesting detail that is only visible in this image (not the ones I had seen earlier) is that the antennas have an interesting L shape, which I have not seen before. The "active" part of the antenna elements are the horizontal portions, which match the layout/polarization of the receiver antennas. I'm not sure what role the vertical portion plays, and none of my references seem to mention it. It appears they have connections at the top, but those might be supports, not electrical connections. Very interesting! Also note that the antenna mounted on the ladder has the same arrangement, but in this case it is upside down.
::The receiver is much simpler, with more "standard" horizontal elements. There are three of them along the main section, which you can make out in this image (barely) and then another mounted up top again. The idea was that the two on the outside part of the horizontal line would be compared to calculate the horizontal angle, and the upper one with the center to get the vertical angle. Also notice the whip-like vertical antennas behind the "ladder". There appear to be two of these, which strongly suggests they are IFF receivers. These are not part of the radar itself, they are a separate receiver tuned to the radios of friendly aircraft.
::This page is very useful, excellent find! 
::I did not see anything related on the ausairpower page, perhaps that is the wrong URL? [[User:Maury Markowitz|Maury Markowitz]] ([[User talk:Maury Markowitz|talk]]) 16:16, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

::::::::::{{ping|Goran tek-en}} I am curious about those too! The actual antennas are connected to these objects. The antennas themselves cannot be seen in this photo though, but the very first URL you posted above (lookout point) does show the antennas themselves more clearly, they are the L-shaped objects. I believe the circled object is just a support rod of some sort, and not really important. If you look on that same image, it appears there are several more of these connected to the truss work, connecting at several points on the antenna, so I think this was just a mounting system that was intended to keep the antennas SOLIDLY fixed to the truss so you didn't have to re-adjust anything after moving the radar site.
::::::::::The first of the two new URLs you posted solves a mystery! That image is clearly the basis for the line drawing I posted on the Russian page. It is very annoying they have watermarked this, as the image is in the public domain (it's PD-50 as UK crown). The receiver is the item in the center of the image, with transmitters on the left and right sides. The details of the receiver are slightly more obvious here, but it is still not great.
::::::::::The French PDF also has several images of GL systems. The page "Grande Distance" shows a Mk. I transmitter on the right, I've not seen a description of what the smaller truss above the main one does but I suspect it is part of the EL attachment. On the Pas tous pareils page we see a more clear image of those "supports" in the upper right, but again the detail is lacking. The lower-right image shows the receiver in what I assume is the folded-up state for travel. [[User:Maury Markowitz|Maury Markowitz]] ([[User talk:Maury Markowitz|talk]]) 13:07, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
:::::::::::@[[User:Maury Markowitz|Maury Markowitz]] Do you think [https://vc.airvectors.net/ttwiz_02.html the first image here] shows what the antennas should look like?  --''always ping me''-- [[User:Goran tek-en|Goran tek-en]] ([[User talk:Goran tek-en|talk]]) 14:07, 19 January 2025 (UTC)
::::::::::::{{ping|Goran tek-en}} The antennas on the receiver will look just like this. These are classic "dipoles", the horizontal rods in this image. They don't look like it here, but they are two separate rods, one on either side of the supports. If you look at the second from the top on the left you can see the small gap between them, but it's not easily seen in the other ones.
::::::::::::On the transmitter van, the antennas are different and I've never found out why. On the transmitter, the dipoles have extensions that go up, and appear to be the same length as the horizontal part. So instead of two horizontal letter I's, pointed end-to-end like - -, it is two L shapes, like ⅃ L. The rods you were asking about earlier appear to be supports, like the ones visible in the link you just provided, but with another set of them holding the top of the L's. I hope that makes sense!

::::::::::::::::::{{ping|Goran tek-en}} The structure looks perfect. I have only two suggestions: you have colored most of the "support" structure in a sort of green-grey, and the antennas in silver-grey. The exception is the support bars that connect the upper part of the L shaped antennas to the top of the truss, which are dark-grey. I think these should be the green color like the other supports below. The other is perhaps make the antennas themselves "brighter" ("lighter", "more visible"?) so that they stand out a little better compared to the truss. Other that that I can't see any other changes.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::{{ping|Goran tek-en}} Sorry, I just thought it would be easier for me to type it in directly than type it here. <s>But sure: "The GL Mk. II radar was a British radar system that was built starting in 1940, based on the earlier Mk. I units of 1939. The Mk. II consisted of two wooden cabins that were mounted on gun carriages that allowed them to rotate to point at targets. One, shown here, contained the transmitter electronics and antenna systems. The transmitter antennas are arranged in two parts, the four antenna elements making up the prominent horizontal row on the truss work, and a single similar antenna mounted above on the ladder-like support. The four horizontal antennas mixed together to narrow the beam down to about sixty degrees wide, while the single upper antenna mixed with the main signal to produce a series of vertical 'lobes' that allowed the altitude angle to be calculated. The transmitter and receiver shared a separate wheeled generator pack, not shown here."</s> '''I found the working URL and added the caption.'''

: This image was kindly created by {{ping|TheWanderingTraders}} in response to a request by me in January.

: {{ping|JonH}} ''Given your choice of (a,b) and (c,d),'' the top vertex should remain (a+c,b+d)... the top vertex label is not the problem. Looking at the second diagram on [https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/29128/why-determinant-of-a-2-by-2-matrix-is-the-area-of-a-parallelogram this web page], ''for the (a,b) and (c,d) you have chosen,'' the correct formula for Diagram{{nbsp}}A area is '''bc-ad'''—which yields a positive number.  I've added Diagram{{nbsp}}B above, which has the (a,b) and (c,d) labels switched versus yours. Would you rather just use Diagram{{nbsp}}B which has the determinant-familiar '''ad-bc''', or add "absolute value symbols to the formula in Diagram{{nbsp}}A? I'm not sure what the goal is with this request. Please clarify. —<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;color:dark blue;">[[User:RCraig09|RCraig09]] ([[User talk:RCraig09|talk]])</span> 04:27, 16 February 2025 (UTC)
:To try to clarify this, I will set out some of the history:
:* In 2007, ''File:Area parallellogram as determinant.svg'' was created with vertices {{math|(0, 0)}}, {{math|(''c'', ''d'')}}, {{math|(''a'' + ''c'', ''b'' + ''d'')}} and {{math|(''a'', ''b'')}} reading anticlockwise.
:* In 2009, it was changed to have vertices {{math|(0, 0)}}, {{math|(''a'', ''b'')}}, {{math|(''a'' + ''c'', ''b'' + ''d'')}} and {{math|(''c'', ''d'')}}.
:* Years passed with no changes.
:* In 2024, I started a [[Talk:Determinant/Archive_3#Using_column_vectors_to_represent_points|discussion]] where I pointed out that the article [[Determinant]] used the row vectors of the matrix <math>\begin{pmatrix} a & b \\c & d \end{pmatrix}</math> to represnt points, and that nowadays points are usually represented by column vectors, so the article could be simplified. The discussion confirmed this, but no change was made immediately.
:* In January 2025, I made a request (now [[Wikipedia:Graphics Lab/Illustration workshop/Archive/Jan 2025#Modified version of an SVG diagram|archived]]) to have a modified image with changes to two of the labels: from "(a, b)" to "(a, c)" and from "(c, d)" to "(b, d)".
:* ''File:Area parallelogram as determinant modified'' was created with those two changes.
:* The article [[Determinant]] was changed to be simpler and to use the modified image.
:* On 7 February, it was pointed out at [[Talk:Determinant#Using_column_vectors_to_represent_points]] that the vertex (a + c, b + d) should now say (a + b, c + d). I had known back in 2024 that this change was needed, but I forget to include it in my first request. Sorry.
:* On 10 February, I created this request to change the third vertex.
:* On 11 February, {{ping|QuickQuokka}} made the requested change, so the vertices were in the order {{math|(0, 0)}}, {{math|(''a'', ''b'')}}, {{math|(''a'' + ''b'', ''c'' + ''d'')}} and {{math|(''b'', ''d'')}} reading anticlockwise.
:* At 20:25 12 February, 2025 (UTC), I was happy with the changed image, so I noted on the Determinant talk page that it was now fixed, and clicked a link to thank QuickQuokka.
:* An hour later, the image was changed to have the vertices in the order {{math|(0, 0)}}, {{math|(''c'', ''d'')}}, {{math|(''a'' + ''c'', ''b'' + ''d'')}} and {{math|(''a'', ''b'')}}.
:* As {{ping|RCraig09}} says, the diagram is now wrong because ''bc-ad'' is negative.  But it is also wrong because it is using the row vectors to represent points and so it does not correspond to the text of the [[Determinant]] article.
:The simplest fix is to revert ''File:Area parallelogram as determinant modified'' to the version dated 07:19, 11 February 2025.  I can do that, but there has also been a change to the transparent background which might be desirable, so I will wait to allow further discussion.

:By the way, the Stack Exchange page linked to above includes a diagram dated 1985, and seems to be using the older convention of row vectors to represent points. [[User:JonH|JonH]] ([[User talk:JonH|talk]]) 19:05, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

:: I have an engineering background and understand the math basics, but here on Wikimedia I'm a Graphics Dude who's waiting for a concise request or instruction on what exactly is needed. It sounds like JonH is calling for more discussion, so I'll not take any action until the goal is clearly expressed. —<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;color:dark blue;">[[User:RCraig09|RCraig09]] ([[User talk:RCraig09|talk]])</span> 22:52, 23 February 2025 (UTC)
