Congressman Thad McCotter to run for U.S. President

July 2, 2011

Republican Congressman Thaddeus McCotter of Michigan confirmed Friday, after weeks of hinting, that he will run for. McCotter, who has represented since 2003, has launched a campaign website and plans to publicly announce his intentions Saturday.

McCotter broke the news during an interview on Detroit's -AM radio station. He has publicly considered running since May when '  host asked him if he would enter the race. Last week, McCotter reportedly paid $18,000 to appear in Iowa's in August.

The run follows the release of McCotter's book Seize Freedom!, whose title serves as his campaign slogan and is featured on his website below the warning: "Your is endangered". McCotter has outlined five "core" principles for his campaign:
 * "Our liberty is from God not the government"
 * "Our sovereignty is in our souls not the soil"
 * "Our security is from strength not surrender"
 * "Our prosperity is from the private sector not the public sector"
 * "Our truths are self-evident not relative"

Although McCotter previously stated that "if I run, I would be in to win", he received only two votes in a  two weeks ago, and lacks the name recognition of his fellow challengers for the nomination. of the  rated it "virtually impossible" for McCotter to be nominated.

Other candidates for the Republican nomination include fellow Representatives of Minnesota and Ron Paul of Texas as well as former Massachusetts  Mitt Romney,  former Utah , former  Newt Gingrich, and businessman Herman Cain.

An adviser said McCotter is dissatisfied with the current candidates and "has something to say and has some ideas and some policies to put out there that nobody else is discussing right now...his presence in the race is going to force these issues and force this discussion that the country has to have right now."

According to , next month, as he campaigns for the presidency, McCotter plans to propose a bill.

Completeness
I think the article should include more info on his alleged financial problems. --SweetNightmares (talk) 02:28, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The sources did not mention any detail about these issues and, even so, these are Mitchell's personal struggles that are mentioned; whether or not he chooses to disclose more information about it is purely his own decision. Tyrol5 (talk) 17:13, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Congressman Thad McCotter to run for U.S. President

Difficulty verifying
Is there an unlisted source at work here?

This article says:
 * He has publicly considered a run since May after an appearance on Fox News' Red Eye program when host Greg Gutfeld repeatedly asked him if he would enter the race.

This would be inferring a lot more than I see in the source. I'm willing to take it as implied that it was in May, and I'd be half-willing to read an implication that it was actually on Red Eye — but it says "prodded" which really can't be assumed to imply a question (it could have been a statement "you should run"), and even if the prodding took place on Red Eye there's nothing in the source saying McCotter was on the program at the time.

So far, that's the most extensive verification problem I've tangled with. --Pi zero (talk) 22:46, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
 * No. I think I misinterpreted the source, I have corrected it.--William S. Saturn (talk) 22:52, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Comment/question about copy-editing from a novice editor
I'm not sure of the rules/conventions here. I found the article via a link from. I compared some of the text of the article to the text of the congressman's campaign website and when I saw an error (either typo or copy/paste) I tried to correct it. I see that my edit is under review, and I certainly understand that substantive changes are not to be made to a news article after it is published.

I have one suggestion for an additional clarification/improvement, not in the text of the article itself but rather in a wikilink.

I think the link on the text "House of Representatives" in the 5th listed source should direct the reader to the wiki article "United States House of Representatives" rather than to the more generic "House of Representatives". Over on regular wikipedia, I would just go ahead and make the edit -- over there, I know it's annoying for someone to write a comment about an article when they could have just gone ahead and made the edit if they thought it was justified -- but I don't want to create inappropriate waves here. Will await feedback (if any) and education (I have looked at some of the Help pages here, I see more guidelines for writing news articles than for editing them, for reasons that I understand -- i.e., wikinews is not an encyclopedia). NameIsRon (talk) 15:45, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Obvious typo corrections are okay even long after the article is published (we do those even to articles from years ago, though of course it takes an admin to implement those). The more interesting question in this case is the source of information: our article source that lists those points misspells it "soul".  I've suggested adding an external link to the campaign website, which should more-or-less clarify the matter... assuming another reviewer agrees that adding that external link now, more than 24 hours after publication, is within our archive policy.

 * I'd say specifying which House of Representatives is within archive policy, and I'd self-sight it... except of course that I can't do so without also sighting the external link, which I've already chosen to leave for someone else (in the interest of getting a second opinion on that). --Pi zero (talk) 16:03, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Yohan. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Yohan~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:40, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Wikinews:Arbitration Committee/2011 election

The Arbitration Committee is a community-elected group of users who may hold hearings in serious disputes that cannot otherwise be resolved by the community (through discussions or quick, generally temporary actions by administrators).

In general, ArbCom hearings are intended to be about whether core policies like NPOV and Wikiquette are followed. The members of ArbCom can decide whether or not they want to hear a particular case brought before them through Requests for arbitration. Be aware that arbitration duty can still be rather time-intensive in complex cases, and that you will be required to recuse yourself from cases you are involved in.

The community must agree on nomination procedures by July 1, and election committee members by July 10. Nominations will be accepted until July 17. Questions and comments may be made during that time period, but no voting shall take place. Voting will take place from 2000 UTC July 18 to 2000 UTC July 30. Since the incumbent members' seats expire on August 3, the election committee must declare the winners by that date, and the new term begins on August 4.

Candidacy

 * All candidates must have an established, contributory, account on this project.
 * Members of the election committee are ineligible to run.

Voter eligibility

 * You must have at least 250 edits before July 1, 2011, 00:00 UTC to cast an eligible vote.
 * Your first main namespace edit must be prior to June 1, 2011, 00:00 UTC.
 * All Wikimedia Foundation board members, full-time staff, and paid developers are deemed eligible to vote, provided they have edited a Wikimedia wiki prior to June 1, 2011, 00:00 UTC in that capacity.
 * Administrators on this project are eligible to vote, even where they do not meet the above criteria.
 * Members of the election committee may only vote in exceptional cases (enumerated below).
 * Candidates may not vote for themselves.

How to vote

 * Eligible voters, per above criteria, should indicate support for the candidates they favor by using the support template in the relevant sub-section below.
 * The election is support-voting only. Any administrator, or election committee member, may strike oppose votes, abstentions, or comments not placed in the appropriate section.
 * Specific sections are provided for comments on, and questions to, candidates; such should be strictly limited to these sections.
 * Unsigned, ineligible, or IP votes may be struck by any administrator or election committee member.

Election results

 * Following the closure of voting, the six candidates with the highest number of eligible votes will form the new Arbitration Committee.
 * In the event of a tie, it is the responsibility of the election committee to schedule a run-off election, which should last not less than seven days. An interim Arbitration Committee will be formed with the clearly elected members.
 * Primary responsibility for the validation of votes, and their legitimacy, lies with the election committee.
 * The election committee is tasked with declaring the new members of the Arbitration Committee following the election, and any required run-off election(s).
 * All motions considered by the election committee must be approved by a simple majority of its members. All election committee members must be given clear notice and opportunity to comment, and vote, on a motion before the decision is finalized. Those not on the election committee may comment on any motion being considered by the committee.
 * If the incumbent Arbitration Committee is conducting business on August 3, then it will continue to serve as arbitrators until such business is concluded. The new Arbitration Committee will consider requests that are filed on or after August 4.

Nominations and voting

 * /Nominations and voting

Election procedure
Seeing the deadline to decide procedure is today yesterday, I propose we use last year's procedure, dates of course readjusted to the one's listed here. — Mike moral  ♪♫  06:03, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Since you did mention readjusting dates accordingly, I edited the 2011 election page here to reflect the July 10 date that's been discussed for settling membership of the election committee. Otherwise, this seems merely an elaboration of what's been before us for about two months, and is fine by me.

 * I've suggested putting the committee membership and nominations in their own top-level sections at the bottom of the page, figuring they should show on the page's table of contents. I also went so far as to list the names of the two people who have, thus far, said on the policy water cooler they would be willing to serve on the election committee.  --Pi zero (talk) 22:28, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Thread:Comments:U.S. space agency NASA sues ex-astronaut/Let the man do with the camera what he needs

This man, Mister Mitchell, is a hero by all standards, he risked his life and limb to explore space and grant us a greater knowledge and understanding of our universe. Nowadays many of us take for granted such knowledge, and some even think it was a waste. Everyone being entitled to their own notions and opinions(even if they are ridiculous) in my view it was a very important step for "humankind". In the here and now, these notions are fine and swell, but they give a sort of underlining to the story and the fact that NASA is taking legal action against one of our World's most courageous and celebrated living heroes. It is sad and downright wrong to do this to a senior, even more so to a senior with economical issues. The US should take better care of its Living Treasures, not just the immaterial, even more so because they ARE living, once they pass away all those personal experiences will be gone leaving only a Treasured Memory. Why would NASA do such a thing, after all they still boast about how they put men on the Moon, for Pete's sake they RISKED this man's life! I say he is entitled to keep HIS camera, he is an elderly man and putting him under such a situation is just ridiculous, not to mention they ARE putting him under duress risking HIS life once more to the pressure of the US legal system. Younger men get sick from attending court, end up bald and worse, and MR. Mitchell is no criminal (as far as we know). If this is what NASA is all about these days, bickering over something they would have thrown into the trash in all reality back then, no wonder they got their budget shredded (wasting of money on a lawsuit). This is sour affair, and it makes me sick to my stomach how low NASA officials have sunk. If they want the darned thing back, why they don't cough up the money they are spending on the lawyer and just pay Mitchell his price for having "secured and curated the equipment" and solve the issue. Elegant compromises are better than bruised wallets and even more bruised spirits.

I agree. NASA spending taxpayer money to sue a national hero over a piece of junk is a disgraceful situation.If this is how NASA uses it's budget, maybe it ought to be time to consider shrinking or closing NASA for making such shameful decisions in rough economic times. Why not auctioning off all NASA to lower the public depth.

US children who celebrate Independence Day more likely to become Republicans, says Harvard study

July 2, 2011

A study conducted by Harvard University researchers has concluded that children who attend an celebration are more likely to become  as adults.

Even attending a single fireworks display or flag-waving parade, specifically celebrations without rain, can be predictive of a child's future political leanings and voting habits. "One Fourth of July without rain before age 18 increases the likelihood of identifying as a Republican at age 40 by 2 percent, the share of people voting for the Republican candidate at age 40 by 4 percent, and the share of people turning out to vote at age 40 by 0.9 percent," the researchers claim.

Moreover, the data does not suggest that the base is affected at all by the holiday celebrations. "There is no evidence of an increased likelihood of identifying as a Democrat, indicating that Fourth of July shifts preferences to the right rather than increasing political polarization," the study claims.

David Yanagizawa-Drott, a public policy professor at Harvard and a co-author of the study, suggests that "the celebration of Fourth of July embodies certain ideas or values that are closer to the Republican Party," but adds that further study is needed to explain this trend. Another explanation offered by the study is that celebrations in Republican-dominated areas may tend to be more politically charged.

Thread:Comments:US children who celebrate Independence Day more likely to become Republicans, says Harvard study/Caveat

One complication here is that political dynamics are a moving target. If someone is at least 40 years old, and attended a Fourth of July event without rain before they were 18, that means they attended the event either while, or before, Ronald Reagan was president. One wonders how this correlation might vary depending on what year the person attended the event, or what year the person turned forty.

It'd also be fascinating to know how the probability of good weather on July 4 varies with geographical region of the country.

Over half of Romanian terminal grade students fail baccalaureate exam

July 6, 2011

Only 44.47 percent of Romanian high school students passed last week's 2011, according to the results published by Romanian  education authorities on Sunday. The baccalaureate exam in Romania is the secondary school educational qualification test, and passing it attests that a student has graduated high school and may be admitted to a university. This is dramatically different from 69.3 percent last year and 81.4 percent in 2009.

Sunday's passing figures are a record low since the exam was introduced in Romania and comes after new anti-fraud measures cut back on student cheating. These included installing cameras in examination centres and forbidding students from paying teachers to obtain higher scores. For this exam, 665 high school students were caught cheating, double the number from last year, and at one high school it was found that the exam answers were given to 111 pupils prior to the exam.

reported the lowest rate with 24.82 percent graduation, and reported the highest with 65.03 percent, down from 87.39 percent in 2010. In Bucharest the rate was 42.03 percent, the lowest since the.

The release of the results started a national debate on the possible causes of the drastic drop in scores, from the failure of parental participation, poor teacher pay and pay cuts, to student disinterest and lack of motivation. Critics say the educational system depends on rote learning and students are not taught to think independently. Students say the school curriculum is boring and out-of-date.

At a press conference on Monday, Education minister Daniel Funeriu said, "These results are a mirror of our society. Romania is now at a crossroads...The nation should choose to encourage people who like to work rather than those who prefer cheating".

Cristian Alexandrescu, chief education inspector for Bucharest, argued that the exam was not taken seriously by students and the results prove that a student cannot obtain a diploma without effort.

"The moment of truth has come," Liliana Romanciuc, a school inspector in north-eastern Romania, told . "Success rates topping 80 percent were not possible. We were simply deluding ourselves."

Thread:Comments:US children who celebrate Independence Day more likely to become Republicans, says Harvard study/More likely to become... non-voters

US children who celebrate Independence Day more likely to become non voters, because the "non-voters party" is the majority party in the US with approximately 60% of the voting-eligible population in the US General Election 2010. Anyway, why this article has been categorized under category: Science and technology?

Hidden treasure worth billions of dollars discovered in Indian temple

July 4, 2011 Officials announced that a treasure containing sacks of diamonds and gold coins as well as golden idols, jewelry and other riches has been discovered in the secret subterranean vaults of, in the southwestern state of Kerala, India. Estimates of its worth have been rising and it is now thought to be worth US$20 billion.

The Hindu temple was built in the 16th century by the kings of the then  to serve as a royal chapel for the. The six vaults containing the treasure have been undisturbed for over a century. Assessment of the treasure began on June 27 after a lawyer concerned about the security of the treasure petitioned India's Supreme Court, which then appointed a seven-member panel of experts to inventory the treasure. The panel does not have the power to determine to whom the treasure will belong. Estimates of the treasure's worth are rising, provoking a heated debate as to how the treasure will be used in a country that has 450 million poverty-stricken people.

The, , announced on Sunday the treasure would remain with the temple, and security matters would be decided in consultation with the Travancore Royal Family, the temple management, and the temple priest. "The gold was offered to the lord. It is the property of the temple. The government will protect the wealth at the temple," Oommen Chandy said. Meanwhile, hundreds of armed police have been deployed around the temple to protect the treasure.

However, the view that the treasure should remain at the temple has been disputed. Among the dissenters is eminent jurist, who said the treasure should be put in a national trust for the peoples' benefit. "God’s wealth belongs to the people, not to the king. It’s meaningless to say that it belongs to Hindus or any particular religious community," said Iyer. "A mechanism should be devised to ensure that the benefits of it reach the poor and the needy and not the rich."

Five of the six vaults of the Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple have been inventoried.

On Saturday, reports leaked to the press revealed that the treasure, including a golden idol of and a golden 'anki', were found in one of the vaults, estimated to weigh 30 kilograms,  along with precious stones, silver, two coconut shells of pure gold and another golden idol as well as other jewels and valuable coins. The panel hopes to find more treasure when the sixth and final vault is opened, but the attempt was suspended on Monday because the iron door inside presented "technical problems" requiring further consultation before opening. This vault is thought to contain the bulk of the wealth.

Keralan officials in a preliminary estimate said that the treasure was worth over US$11.2 billion; those estimates have now risen to US$20 billion. Historians say that the temple's location on a site through which passed lucrative  support the higher evaluations.

"Traders, who used to come from other parts of the country and abroad for buying spices and other commodities, used to make handsome offerings to the deity for not only his blessings but also to please the then rulers," said P.J. Cherian, the director of Kerala Council for Historic Research

Some suggest that the profit from the sale of the treasure would be enough to wipe out the entire public debt of Kerala and fund future Kerala projects such as  seaports, airports and highways.

Talk:Over half of Romanian terminal grade students fail baccalaureate exam

Lede?
At this moment, the lede should be much shorter that it is, succinctly answering —for an international audience— as many of the basic questions as reasonably possible. --Pi zero (talk) 22:50, 3 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Exactly what is the news event? Release of test results?  If that didn't happen within the past day or two, the story isn't fresh.
 * Most of the information in the current first paragraph should probably be moved into a separate second paragraph.
 * An international audience will likely never have heard of the baccalaureate exam.
 * I made some changes and updated the article. Is it good now? The subject of the news is the unusually high number of students failing the exam. -- Petru Dimitriu (talk) 08:09, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Purely on form, it looks pretty good. From what I can tell there are also two independent sources (one source being from a different publisher than the others).

 * I, for one, can't judge the content as I don't read Romanian (for that matter, even automatic translation from Romanian to English looks pretty bad). I rather suspect I'm not alone in that, which could be a problem.  Hm...  --Pi zero (talk) 23:44, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Frankly, I was afraid that this will happen. -- Petru Dimitriu (talk) 10:18, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I rewrote the article using English sources. Hopefully it's ok, although I had to remove some very interesting information because it wasn't in the English sources. Mattisse (talk) 19:02, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called GoonerDP. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name GoonerDP~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:18, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Thread:Comments:US children who celebrate Independence Day more likely to become Republicans, says Harvard study/More likely to become... non-voters/reply (3)

I agree with the spectacle attendee's being more likely to never vote. I do not see the correlation between fireworks and Republicanism. I do think there is a correlation between those who attend organized religious ceremonies and Republican voting since the violations of the Constitution by both the Republicans and their friends within religion are matters of historical fact. The insane number of US citizens who do not vote has more to do with our dishonest elections than any other factor. I have to vote inside a Baptist church near my home which is a direct and overt violation of the US Constitution. I have sent many letters to the Election Board in my county (St. Charles, Mo.) to no avail. I have wittinessed vote suppression by County officials by means of not supplying enough machines at our church ballot place. I went to vote in a Presidential race and it took over an hour and one half to get to the machines. There were four machines---we normally had 20. When I got home I called and complained. I checked two hours later and the lines were down to normal after the correct number of machines were brought out--yes I looked in to verify. Republicans love stopping and making difficult as possible all voting activity as they win big when the count is down. Conclusion is Republicans are scum, criminal, sleazy, self serving, religious con artists!

Why? Why is this a subject of study? I am left to make the logical assumption that the reason for this analysis is to somehow show that attending July 4th activities as a child is somehow unfair to democrats??? This pushes me to make the next assumption that voting republican is somehow a bad thing in the eyes of the authors.

Bottom line, it is sad to see Harvard, considered to be one of our brightest institutions, with professors creating such crap! Especially right now when it is obvious Keynesian economic policy has failed the US. Out of all the things people could analyze we have professors from Harvard analyzing rainfall on the 4th of July to determine if they vote Republican... How pathetic!

Just to put more salt on this wound before I stop writing... I can't wait to see what increased taxes, inflation, another stimulus package and increased healthcare costs do for this country. All while our federal government allows the deficit to spiral out of control!!! Then you add on some illegal immigration, entitlements offered to everyone who wants to sit on their butt all day and 3 wars that we shouldn't be in... Is this the CHANGE you were looking for?

Pathetic!

Thread:Comments:US children who celebrate Independence Day more likely to become Republicans, says Harvard study/Pathetic/reply

The study isn't described well enough to understand the findings. (How many subjects were in it, how did they collect the data etc.)

 * From the ABC news article:

"The findings leave some questions unanswered, a contention that David Yanagizawa-Drott, the assistant professor of public policy of Harvard University's Kennedy School who co-wrote the study with Andreas Madestam of Bocconi University, seems to acknowledge."

"One thing not addressed in the report is that nearly every kid in America attends Fourth of July celebrations, but the Republican Party is a minority party."

 * From the CBS news article (which seems to make fun of the study)

"This is all based off of several assumptions, and whether or not they are generally regarded as truth is beside the point. Repeated over time, there is no way that the results would read the same or true. This study is a preliminary investigation and while it has its merits in terms of logic and persuasion, it lacks in cold hard irrefutable and repeatable data."

"Algorithms and rain charts aside, allowing or participating in 4th of July events probably won't be too dangerous in socializing your children or yourself, than what your child's best friend's parents believe or what is taught in school."

"Just to be on the safe side though, if you're liberal don't feed your child too many hotdogs and cap the fireworks to 15 minutes top. (We kid.)"

Thread:Comments:Report finds teen substance abuse is top public health problem in US/Implications for the War on Drugs

"A report issued Wednesday by the Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) at Columbia University finds the top public health problem in the United States is teen drug abuse, including the use of alcohol, tobacco, prescription drugs, marijuana and other controlled substances."

Alcohol? Legal, but not to minors. Tobacco? Legal to adults. Prescription drugs? Readily obtained. Marijuana? Illegal (and by far the safest of the aforementioned). Alcohol and tobacco are both deadly drugs that corporations urge on US citizens. Prescription drugs are powerful concoctions that pharmaceutical companies urge on US citizens. Marijuana.... is not physiologically addictive and can be grown in your backyard. The researchers emphasize the tenderness of the teenage undeveloped brain; however, they fail to mention CAFFEINE, the most widely consumed psychoactive drug of all, and its ubiquitous presence in the American childhood. Or adulthood. Perhaps there is "cleaner" (more moral? sustainable? healthy) money in making marijuana a readily available recreational drug in all 50 states, while subsequently banning all advertising of these deadlier drugs. That's right! No tobacco commercials, no alcohol commercials; Sacred Liberty is rightfully limited if it endangers anothers'. The overwhelming evidence shows that a more nuanced understanding of drugs must accompany our legislation for and against them: "just say NO" is fucking bullshit.

The results of this study are confounded by the researcher's bias that all use is abuse. Smoke the ganj if you can.68.7.64.48 (talk) 18:25, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Thread:Comments:Report finds teen substance abuse is top public health problem in US/Implications for the War on Drugs/reply

The study is concerned with the public health implications, not with legality or illegality. Alcohol is implicated in something like 40% of serious or fatal automobile accident, for example. Also China, the US and other countries are trying to reduce the use of tobacco because of the tremulous strain tobacco-related disease put on the health care system in countries. The heavy use of marijuana (whether legal or illegal) has been shown to retard social and intellectual development when used by pre-teen and teen-ages. Caffeine has not been shown to have noticeable public health effects, although an individual person may experience harmful side effects, such as tachycardia.

Agreed that advertising of drugs and alcohol etc. glamorize and encourage the use of these substances. The study notes that effect and that it is harmful. The study emphasizes the society in general, and many parents and school personnel, normalize the use of drugs, and thereby encourage their use.

Remember, the U.S. tried to outlaw the use of alcohol in the Prohibition and it didn't work. The solution is education as well as proper role-modeling by adults. If adults are using (as the study says 42% of children live in homes where one or more adults are abusing substances), then children will grow up thinking substance abuse is normal.

Wikinews:Arbitration Committee/2011 election/Nominations and voting

Meh, I might as well stand. Seems like a good job, little work, no pay, nothing ever gets sent to arbcom anyhow :) BarkingFish (talk) 15:03, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Comments and questions

 * ArbCom duty isn't completely zero (it wasn't this past year for me, e.g.), despite the rarity of requests for arbitration. Also, you're agreeing to put in significant time if it comes to it.  ("Be aware that arbitration duty can still be rather time-intensive in complex cases".)  --Pi zero (talk) 03:58, 21 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Pi zero. I should really have noted that I wasn't intending that to be a complete statement of my intention to run for the ArbCom - it was more a placeholder until I thought of something better.  I am aware that there is work to do, even if it's not a great deal, and I am prepared to put the effort into my time on the commission should I be elected.

I've been around for almost three years now (and on enWP for a while before that), and an admin for about two and a half. In that time, I've managed to avoid upsetting anyone too much, and have played a part in the resolution of a couple of disputes. I'm standing mainly because I think the most important thing in an election is variety of choice (and with so few active users, variety is hard to come by), and I would be willing to serve on the Arbitration Committee if the community decides it wants me to. If not, that's fine too, but I think I'd do a decent job of it. DEN DODGE  George Watson  10:15, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi!

I'm a quite recent contributor, and I've done some decision-making recently, including:
 * Turn away the Wikinews:Requests for permissions/Removal/Diego Grez (sysop) event, being the first to oppose and generally showing that the reason is somewhat one-sided, although 100% of votes before me were support.
 * Take some efforts to resolve a debate by asking each side some questions (1, 2) which helped each of them to clarify their own position and possibly had pacifying effect.
 * Take some softening action at this section to prevent a possible misunderstanding.
 * Suggest to use a more detailed template for the DR process at the May 8 Workshop to have it possible that one isn't opened until needed (the template includes questions about previous steps undertaken).
 * Generally take positive, catalysing role in conflicts that I happen to see, especially if the sides are both worthwile contributors.

Although I may easily expect a failure due to the relative shortness of the time I've spent with the community (which doesn't exceed a couple of years), I think I may be ready to competently facilitate and resolve large problems case accepted here.

Comments and questions

 * - Since you are nominating this currently sitting Arbitrator in absentia, and you state that you don't expect them to be able to accept the nomination within the alloted period, could you clarify the rules should this person be elected, and subsequently refuse the seat? Would the election be recounted to see who out of the remaining candidates took the next highest vote amount, or would the vote have to be recast? BarkingFish (talk) 19:17, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The best way to settle that is to simply take the next highest vote count, of course following the procedure for ties if needed. — Mike moral  ♪♫  19:24, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * As I recall, last year we had a two-way tie for sixth place, and were all set up to have a runoff, when one of the top five withdrew. That was taken to mean we didn't need a runoff after all.  Which (if I've got it right) is a precedent for re-applying the original counts when someone withdraws after the election.  --Pi zero (talk) 20:04, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Yup, last year we decided to just promote the next highest person in vote count. Didn't 2 people end up withdrawing last year, meaning that number 7 and number 8 actually ended up being seated in the 5th and 6th slots? I could be mistaken about that though. Gopher65talk 00:17, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Whoops. This has just made me realize, we've overlooked something crucial to answering BarkingFish's question.  There are two entirely different cases here.
 * If someone pulls out while the election process is still ongoing, the election committee decides how to apply votes of the community to the situation.
 * If a member of ArbCom declines to serve after the election process has ended (including certification of the results by the election committee), then the ArbCom has one less sitting member. Until an election changes that — and realistically, that means next year's regular election, because the community isn't going to go to the bother of a special election to fill one empty seat on a committee whose size is already chosen to be robust against recusals.
 * Last year, a candidate withdrew while regular voting was still open, and then an elected member of ArbCom pulled a Sarah Palin a few days after being elected — while a runoff for the sixth seat was just getting underway. So that filling two seats, instead of one, was well within the purview of the election committee.  But after the election process is complete, those not elected are simply non-members of ArbCom, and trying to claim otherwise would have a serious legitimacy problem.  (One could see the question going all the way to... well, we don't want to go there.)  --Pi zero (talk) 02:05, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Hidden treasure worth billions of dollars discovered in Indian temple

treasure?
Hi,

Suggesting here that the word 'treasure' for temple assets be removed. The correct word is assets, as per this reference by P J Cherian, director, Kerala Council for Historical Research and the director of the archaeological excavations at Pattanam in Ernakulam district. ..असक्तः सततं कार्य कर्म समाचर | असक्तः हि आचरन् कर्म..  Humour Thisthat2011  06:36, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Also note "The Antiquities and Art Treasure Act of 1972 says that if you or any institution has artefacts or materials with cultural or historical value, the state has no problem in you possessing it. Nevertheless, you cannot misuse, melt or export them. That is why the Supreme Court has ordered for the preparation of an inventory of the temple assets." in the same article. One can not therefore value it in terms of weight legally.

 * As a sidenote "We cannot destroy the assets by melting or selling them to 'solve' the present deficiencies and difficulties. It will not be much different from a thief stealing them for his/her own rational convictions!" ..असक्तः सततं कार्य कर्म समाचर | असक्तः हि आचरन् कर्म..  Humour Thisthat2011  07:25, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

 * ❌, this is a rather confusing request. I see no indication the treasure is being valued by weight. I don't for one second agree that 'assets' is a better term. 'Assets' is a rather cold description one would use for a pile of gold ingots. 'Treasure' properly conveys the cultural and historical value alongside the financial one.

This reads like a white house press release. Where are the concerns that the birth certificate was fake?

Thread:Comments:Hidden treasure worth billions of dollars discovered in Indian temple/Who decides?

The article states that the panel that are inventorying the treasure do not have the power to establish ownership and that the priest says it belongs to the temple. Is it his place to decide this? I'm not sure it was clear whether he was just claiming it or whether he indeed has the power to do so.

Thread:Comments:U.S. President Barack Obama releases original birth certificate/Comments from feedback form - "This reads like a white house ..."/reply

The article is based on a White House press release of the birth certificate and on news article reports of the release and reactions to it. The original birth certificate was released by the White House, according to news sources, because of concerns that the prior certification of birth was fake.
