User talk:Wagtail~enwikinews

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 Wagtail. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Wagtail~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.

How can Assange protest that he wasn't informed of the charges against him if he is (by his own admission) constantly moving and changing his name and appearance? Doesn't their inability to speak directly to him just mean he's doing a good job of it? 131.216.101.205 (talk) 11:06, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

FIFA announce Russia to host 2018 World Cup, Qatar to host 2022 World Cup

December 2, 2010

Football's governing body, FIFA, today announced Russia is to host the, and Qatar is to host the. The decision was made by FIFA's 22 executive members, who conducted a ballot in today. Russia beat England, Spain-Portugal and Holland-Belgium to host the event in 2018. The Qatar bid was picked ahead of the United States, Australia, Japan, and South Korea to stage the 2022 tournament.

Deputy Prime Minister of Russia spoke briefly to react to his country's victory. "You have entrusted us with the FIFA World Cup for 2018 and I can promise, we all can promise, you will never regret it. Let us make history together," he said. Some analysts had suggested that Russia would not win the right to host the tournament, since Prime Minister Vladimir Putin had decided not to travel to Zurich, but remained in Moscow. FIFA President Sepp Blatter said of Russia: "I am sure that to organise the World Cup in that region, or that continent, it will do a lot of good for this part of the world."

Russia captain said he was "very, very happy" with the result. "It is going to have a huge impact in sports, in our economy, in the development of the country and even in politics. The influence of football in the world is huge. You can see that even today with the presentations and those who were making them," he said. "It’s going to be the best World Cup in history because Russians are so hospitable. I hope it will change the way that Europe and the world view Russia—and hopefully change the opinion of Russian people too."

'Today we celebrate, but tomorrow, the work begins'
Sheikh, the ruling of Qatar, praised FIFA for "believing in change". Al Thani, who was in Zurich for the announcement, added: "We have worked very hard over past two years to get to this point. Today we celebrate, but tomorrow, the work begins. We acknowledge there is a lot of work for us to do, but we also stand by our promise that we will deliver." Qatar urged FIFA to take "a bold gamble" by hosting the event in the Middle East for the first time. While only 1.7 million people live in Qatar, the bid representatives said that football is popular there. It was thought that there may be concerns that the extreme heat in Qatar would put the delegates off. Hassan Al-Thawadi, the chief executive of the bid, played down the fears. "We know it would be a bold gamble and an exciting prospect but with no risk," he said. "Heat is not and will not be an issue."

"Everyone is celebrating in the Middle East; everyone was behind us since the very beginning. They believed in us the whole way. And I’m so glad FIFA believed in us as well," Al Thani added. "I’m speechless, but very proud and happy. I’m so proud that the Middle East was recognised by FIFA. We are so privileged to have a tournament like this coming to our region for the first time. It shows the value of FIFA and what it stands for as an organisation. As I promised, we will not let FIFA down. Everything we have promised until now will become a reality." Speaking about why Qatar won the bid, he said: "What made us different is that we pushed the boundaries; we created new concepts, things which were not conventional but still very possible, very realistic for a country like ours. Therefore we are very proud to represent a new era, a new age for FIFA to look towards the future—the World Cup is for everyone.

'We gave it our best shot'
There was disappointment in the countries which were beaten by Russia and Qatar. "Naturally we are hugely disappointed. At the same time we gave it our best shot," said England ambassador. "It was very well presented by our bid team. All you can do is wish Russia well and hope they have a really good World Cup but I wish it was us." A journalist in Spain reported that there was "bitter disappointment here amongst Spanish fans," and added that the economic crisis in the country may have been to blame. American supporters watching on large screens in Washington, D.C. were, when it was announced Qatar had won, "simply stunned—no booing or tears, but disbelief; and then a minute later, every face shows honest disappointment," a BBC correspondent said.

The managing director for the Spain-Portugal joint bid, Miguel Angel Lopez, commented on losing out to Russia. “FIFA thought it was better to promote football in other latitudes and there we are," he said. "The decision is focused on taking football to regions which have never held a World Cup." Former Belgian footballer said: “Russia is a political choice and Qatar is an economic choice. You can say that to some extent the sport has been the loser with the decision for these two World Cups.”

, Japan's bid chairman and CEO of Sony said: “We had it in 2002—that was too big a mountain to climb. I was hoping we could get Japan another mission—the chance to do something spectacular in technology for society.” The vice-president of the Kuniya Daini added: “We had heard people say our bid was too soon so it’s possible that was the reason. We knew it would be tough but it’s still a big disappointment. We have set a target of hosting the World Cup alone by 2050 so we will be bidding again.” The Australian Sports Minister told local media: “We’re all pretty shattered over here. It was a bit unexpected because we thought we had run a first-class campaign to win. We did our best ... unfortunately it wasn’t the case.”

Making the announcement, Blatter said: "We have had four bidders for 2018 and we can have only one winner. Three of the bidding associations must go home saying 'what a pity'. But they must say football is not only by winning but football is also a school of life where you learn to lose. That's not easy." The 2010 World Cup was held earlier this year in South Africa, and Brazil will host the. When the bids for the 2018 and 2022 tournaments were announced in March 2009, Blatter praised the number of countries who wanted to host. "We are very pleased about the fantastic level of interest in our flagship competition, with all initial bidders confirming their candidature."

Thread:Comments:Wikileaks website attacked; millions of files to be released tonight/Comments from feedback form - "I am very impressed with what ..."

I am very impressed with what Mr.Assange has accomplished for free press. Truly impressive and worthy of a nobel peace prize. This website is the most important invention of our time and should be protected at all costs. It reveals the lies and deceit our governments constantly perpetuate and the fear that it invokes in our governments is a sign that we are on the right track. I feel that 100% transparency in our governments actions is the only way for us as a society to hold our countries responsible for the countless irresponsible decisions being made that are supposedly in our best interest. Thank you for everything you have accomplished Mr. Assange and keep it up!!! I wish you all the best in the future and pledge to help promote wikileaks in any way I possibly can. I am from Canada where the vast majority of our population seems to think our government is immune from the corrupt practices demonstrated by U.S politicians, when in fact, the reality of the situation is that our governments hands are even dirtier. Canada has been testing biological weapons for the U.S on a number of its military bases

(cfb suffield) in southern alberta and areas in the far north for a number of years now and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn that canada played a key role in the anthrax attacks in the U.S and the fear mongering the U.S government constantly perpetuates to keep its citizens from really looking and seeing the atrocities the CIA and NSA have committed against its own citizens.

User talk:Claude~enwikinews

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 Claude. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Claude~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.

Thread:Comments:Interpol orders arrest of Wikileaks founder to face rape charges/Assange wasn't informed of his charges/reply (2)

This is a difficult situation, because on the one hand, letting a man get away with rape would be a serious failure of the legal system and could be used to effectively smear WikiLeaks, but on the other hand, the timing of these charges are highly suspicious - and may be intented as a smear against WikiLeaks. I think there needs to be some serious investigation into the situation by independent parties - though that's not likely to happen any time soon.

Alassane Ouattara 'wins' Ivory Coast presidential election

December 4, 2010

Alassane Ouattara won the Ivory Coast's presidential on Thursday according to the country's electoral commission. However the Constitutional Council has contested the announcement. Ouattara was the challenger in the run-off against President Laurent Gbagbo. Supporters of Gbagbo have claimed that the vote should be blocked because of fraud in the north of the country.

The head of the electoral commission,, released the results of the vote while under armed guard. He announced that Ouattara had won 54% of the vote, while Gbagbo took 46%. Bakayoko was speaking from a hotel rather than the headquarters of the commission.

The vote was plagued with delays as violence took its toll on the country. Legally, Gbagbo's term ended five years ago, but supporters of the President have refused to accept his defeat. Up to eight people were killed at an opposition party headquarters by about 20 armed supporters of the president. The attack took place only hours after a 1900 UTC curfew had been put in place.

, the head of the Constitutional Council, also released a statement saying, "because of disagreements on the results of some regions, the independent electoral commission wasn't able to give the provisional results. The Constitutional Council — responsible for sorting out disputes in presidential elections — finds itself in charge, to find a solution to the disagreements, and proclaim the definitive presidential election results."

In last months first round of voting President Gbagbo was leading by 38% and Ouattara followed closely with 32%.

User talk:Indigo~enwikinews

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 Indigo. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Indigo~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 23:15, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:'Critical safety issue' with A380 engines

Lede
The lede is missing who and where. "Investigators" is too vague. --Pi zero (talk) 20:48, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Hopefully addressed  wacky wace  20:52, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Cause verification
Is the problem always a single misaligned component? In one particular case it was a particular misaligned component, but all I see in general in the sources is that a manufacturing fault increases the likelihood of fatigue cracking etc.; there might (for example) be more than one component that could be misaligned. --Pi zero (talk) 13:02, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * It looks as though the BBC article has been re-written since I wrote the article. The BBC article formerly stated that it was a misaligned component in all Trent 900 engines. I will re-phrase that part of the article to clarify what has now been stated.  wacky wace  13:40, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Now done.  wacky wace  13:43, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I have doubts about that edit, as it transforms the sentence from a general one that naturally fit into the lede but had a bit of no-longer-sourced content, into a specific one that doesn't obviously belong in the lede (nor elsewhere, I suspect — but while I might be able to tweak it myself to good effect... without compromising my uninvolved-reviewer status... I frustratingly don't have time to work it out just now, as I've got real-world tasks that will take me off-line for at least the next four or five hours). --Pi zero (talk) 14:28, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I know what you mean, I'm jut not sure how to go about fixing it... :-/  wacky wace  16:46, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

 * I note use of the 'catastrophic' quote. I should caution that my understanding (I may have got this wrong) is that as-used in this context, it is not the sensationalism it appears to be and is, in fact, a well-defined term. If I'm right, it's something along the lines of a failure that compromises the ability of a particular function to be performed - in this case, the engine cannot work. In any event, here's the actual ATSB piece - that should be at least an external link, if not cited directly for information. We may also want to take a photo as fair use from there; unless, of course, they release under a free license. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 17:46, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * As far as I am aware, "catastrophic engine failure" is a genuine aviation term, and I can assure you it is certainly not intended to be sensationalist. I believe the term to mean the failure of an engine that involves, for example, an explosion or something coming off the engine during flight. In short, I think it means the failure of an engine that does not simply involve it stopping working (for example, due to lack of fuel), but a major, or "catastropic", event occurring in the engine. I will add the report as an external link.  wacky wace  18:05, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Parts coming out of the engine is an 'uncontained failure' i.e. the cowling did not contain the loose bits of crap. I think the definition of catastrophic is such that virtually all uncontained failures are catastrophic, though this rule of thumb does not work in reverse. Let me do some digging for a proper definition. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 18:14, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Catastrophic failure gives quite a general definition; Googling without any attempt to go in-depth gives several variations on this theme. All-in-all, it boils down to sudden and complete. Which makes a kind of sense. I'm happy enough with the WP explanation to link it. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 18:19, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Review of revision 1139483 [Failed]

 * I know they didn't ground them. Singapore "delayed" all flights while they carried out checks, and I remember reading that Lufthansa didn't ground them at all. I can't find any sources to prove these, though, so I think it might just be best to remove that sentence, it doesn't add a great deal to the article.  wacky wace  21:54, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Thread:Comments:Interpol orders arrest of Wikileaks founder to face rape charges/wiki leaks founder/reply (3)

It is interesting how America calls itself a free nation and a democracy and yet still believes in treason. If America valued free press, then they would praise Assange's leaks. It's very clear that the rape allegations are a cover for prosecution for "treason". Julian never raped anyone and I'm outraged that people are thinking of arresting someone so brave. It's not about national security or lives, all that is a excuse. It's just about politicians preserving their dignity, relationship with the rest of the world and their dark secrets. People need to know the truth and someone needs to speak it. To be balanced, it was a surprise and it did embarass the big shots. But how important are the politicians compared the people?

Thread:Comments:Interpol orders arrest of Wikileaks founder to face rape charges/Comments from feedback form - "Interpol orders arrest of Wiki..."/reply

In my opinion the article contains various flaws, effectively misleading the reader. Assange is neither wanted for arrest (it is only a detention order for questioning), nor has he been charged any crime (at least not yet). Also the rape accusation lacks basis. The Swedish technical law term does not correspond with the English word "rape". We should really fix this.

McCain needs to give his head a shake, something is seriously up with his stance on this issue - I believe he has hidden homosexual desires - hence his staunch opposition to the repeal.

The bottom line is that before this recent release by wikileaks, a Swedish judge through the case out of court because of a lack of evidence. As you say though, this situational is highly difficult. On the one hand, rape must be met with a swift response. On the other hand, there is probably no person on this planet who is more likely to be the victim of a smear campaign than Julian Assange.

Thread:Comments:FIFA announce Russia to host 2018 World Cup, Qatar to host 2022 World Cup/Surprising bids

As an englishman I was obviously gutted that I won't be seeing a world cup here for a good few decades at least, or however long Sepp Blatter can keep is claws in either the presidency of FIFA or life in general.

Haha to be fair this was my first instinct - we've been cheated out of it, it's a fix, everybody is against England. On reflection I think that they genuinely did want the WC to go to a country that hasn't hosted it before, the same with Qatar, this may be an indicator as to why England was plumb last! Why then, let us spend several years and several millions of pounds on a campaign we were never going to have a chance of winning - akin to BBC and ITV rigged phone in competitions.

So ok, we only got two votes - Australia got ONE?! They've never hosted a world cup, whereas Japan & Korea and the USA both have within the last 20ish years so it should have been a dead heat between Australia and Qatar right??

Speaking of heat...Qatar is hot. This concern is coupled with my only experience of sporting events in qatar/bahrain/abu dhabi etc in Formula 1. These venues are literally built in the desert and struggle to gain much in the way of attendence, I can only hope that this lack of interest/affluence that prevents spectators attending the F1 events does not translate to football.

I hope my concerns are unfounded and that we have two gd world cups on our hands and that the real loser isn't the sport at the expence of giving other people a go on the world cup stage.

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 Jontyl. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Jontyl~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.

Thread:Comments:British warship HMS Invincible put up for auction online/What's left?

The article says that the ship has been reduced to scrap in recent years. What does that mean? Is only the hull and the outer shape left intact? In my mind, reduced to scrap meant turned into a pile of metal; if that were the case, though, they wouldn't be able to auction it as a ship.

I think we should move away from treating this guy as some sort of hero. This isn't what it is supposed to be about, the powers that be are making this personal - let's not do the same! It distracts from the intended impact which is in the favour of those who would want to cover up leaks, not expose illegal actions, corruption and hypocrisy.

Thread:Comments:Files will risk 'countless' lives, Obama administration warns Wikileaks/Files will risk 'countless' lives, Obama administration warns Wikileaks/reply (4)

Mon contrere. There is much evidence proving that Obama was a: Born in Kenya b: A citizen of Indonesia c: Real name: Barry Soetoro d: not even a naturalized citizen, but actually an illegal immigrant. You have not done your homework. You can't expect that your mere patent statements like "There is no real evidence that Obama was born outside the US" can have any credibility. You are probably a spin doctor working for the New World Order. There IS REAL EVIDENCE that proves Barack Obama is a fraud and a liar. In fact, after thoroughly investigating Barry Soetoro, I can state - with proof - that there is no real evidence proving that Barack Obama (real name - Barry Soetoro) was born in - or even naturalized in the United States. If you would like to find out the truth about Barry Soetoro (aka Barack Obama), try checking out this web link: http://educate-yourself.org/cn/orlytaitzletter24feb09.shtml This is only one place to start to look. Also try doing a search for "Barry Soetoro". You will be very surprised at what you learn. As far as Obama and Co. being "pirates", they are. Remember the "law" they operate under is called "The law of the sea" (aka "Admiralty" "law"; "The rule of necessity") They operate under a false "presumption" that they (and all of us) are "at sea". Our "Birth Certificate(s)" are merely ship's manifests showing evidence that we are given a "berth (birth)" on the "ship of state" - that we are mere cargo on the "ship of state" - we are chattel property to be used or abused according to the whims of our "owners". The problem with this whole scheme is that it is all fraud. In reality they don't own us. They don't "own" anything. They don't have the right to tell anybody what to do, how to act, or what to think or say. If you want to get even more technical, try tracing the chain of title to the succession of the United States government. You will discover that the "United States" ceased to exist in 1933 - when it declared bankruptcy ("civil death"). What took over, was a coup d'etat - by an act of "piracy" - yes, boys and girls - an act of piracy. It was piracy, because they all agreed to pretend that we were all "at sea" and placed us under the ""law" of the sea". The "government" that took over in 1933 has no credibility, because it was not ordained - or sanctioned by We the People. So you could say that we have had - not a headless "government" - but no "government" at all at least since 1933. The current "government" is - legalistically speaking - an unregistered private corporation doing business as "United States" or "United States Government" or any number of other monikers it decides to use at it's convenience. But if you look at what they do - and not what they say, you will then understand that they are nothing more than a cabal of pirates. To suit you, you could call them "brigands" instead of pirates. Brigandage is piratical act(s) committed on land. Brigandage is "land piracy" [Black's Law Dictionary, 5th Ed.]. Thank you for your kind attention.

Thread:Comments:Files will risk 'countless' lives, Obama administration warns Wikileaks/Files will risk 'countless' lives, Obama administration warns Wikileaks/reply (5)

I am aware of the "Barry Soetero" conspiracy theory. The Kenyan birth certificate, a photograph of which has been circulating on the Internet, has been analysed and is most likely a forgery. I admit that I do not recall the Indonesia part, and am not familiar with it, but it sounds unlikely to me. Since you claim that my statements about a lack of evidence lack credibility, I would be very interested in hearing what evidence you have to support your claims - that website appears to put forward very little real evidence, and instead simply makes unfounded accusations that Obama is a Stalinist.

As for your references to the law of the sea, the Law of the Sea that you reference indeed only applies at sea, as the name suggests. The words birth and berth have entirely different etymologies, and nobody owns us (remember that insignificant little law the UN passed ages ago about human rights?) What is your complaint about the 1933 government, and why does it apply to the current government? Numerous new governments have been formed since then, in accordance with the relevant articles of the US constitution, whatever problems the 1933 government had (I am not familiar with that piece of American history; could you perhaps give me some more details?)

Dear Δενδοδγε: Any more discussion on this topic amounts to nothing more than mental masturbation. Your disingeniousness insults not only my intelligence, but the intelligence of others who read this information. It seems obvious you are not going to believe anything I - or others have to say about the fraud of Soetoro. You label it a "conspiracy theory". No. you are wrong. It is not a theory - but conspiracy fact. The story that Soetoro was born in the U.S. is the "conspiracy theory". You refuse to believe anything, but merely want to engage in ad hominum attacks against the messengers - not the truth. My advice: keep looking. There are hundreds of web sites dealing with the fraud. I checked you out. You are from the U.K. What could you possibly know - that would have any credibility - about American "law"? Please don't feel you have to respond to this update. Any more discussion on this topic between us would be useless. Besides, you and I are metely tiny atoms among the billions of beings in the human race. What could we possibly have to say - or do - that would mean anything?

I have made no deliberate personal attacks whatsoever in this thread, and I apologise if anything I ahve said has come across persoanlly (I sincerely doubt anything I have said is as personal or as insulting as asking another user why they have not yet committed suicide, but that is by the by). I am from the UK, but I am reasonably well versed in international affairs and a number of aspects of both British and American law. I have no doubt that somebody called Barry Soetero was once born in the USA - it is such a large country that most names are likely to come up at least once - but I have not yet seen any real evidence that it is Obama's real name. Since you now seem to wish to withdraw from this discussion, I assume you are unable to find any evidence that will please my sceptical mind. I respect your right to do so, and to continue believing that Obama is not an American citizen, but I am afraid you have not succeeded in convincing me.

British government scraps planned rules on pay equality

December 4, 2010

The British has scrapped plans by the previous government to change the rules on. The previous Labour government included a provision in the —Section 78—to allow the government the option to introduce regulations that would require companies to publish details of the difference in pay between male and female employees. If the government had activated such regulations, they would have come into force in 2013. The current government have decided not to activate this requirement and instead will only ask businesses to provide this data voluntarily and will set an "aspiration" to dramatically increase the number of women in senior positions in business.

, the Liberal Democrat MP and coalition Equalities Minister, in announcing the plans stated that the government wishes "to move away from the arrogant notion that government knows best, to one where government empowers individuals, businesses and communities to make change happen."

Featherstone announced the policy at the School of Management at, who have conducted research finding that only 12.5% of directors of FTSE 100 companies are women, up from 12.2% last year—"glacially slow" progress according to business commentator David Prosser.

Featherstone justified not implementing the pay audits due to the economic costs: "Right at this moment of financial peril to the nation is perhaps not the moment to introduce mandatory pay audits."

This breaks with a Liberal Democrat manifesto commitment, as well as contradicting Featherstone's own words two years ago in support of the audit: "A voluntary audit system for private industry is hardly worth the paper it's printed on. We need to know when the government actually plans to step in if progress isn't made."

Women's groups and trade unions have condemned this move. Dave Prentis, the general secretary of, Britain's second largest trade union, said that this is an example of the government "stripping down its commitment to equality".

Prentis continued: "It is a disgrace that women are still getting paid less than men. This move threatens to turn the clock back on all the progress already made with equal pay."

Ceri Goddard, the chief executive of the feminist campaigning group the, condemned the plans: "The persistent gap in pay between men and women is one of the starkest examples of inequality in the UK today. The government's decision not to bring into force section 78 is a huge disappointment and means this injustice will continue for a long time to come. The government has today consigned another generation of women to lower pay. Their proposal to rely only on voluntary business action on pay isn't just naive, it sends a dangerous signal that tackling discrimination against women is a choice, not a requirement."

, Featherstone's shadow minister on the Labour benches, called the news "another broken promise from the government" and said that "scrapping Labour's plan to increase transparency in pay is a backwards step for women's equality."

"The Case Against Barack Hussein Obama" Jun 4 Written by: Diana West Friday, June 04, 2010 5:55 AM

One of the bonuses of writing a syndicated column is the mail that comes in from across the country, from outside the Beltway and beyond the Bos-Wash corridor, often presenting the opportunity for fruitful exchange with similarly concerned fellow-citizens. One such exchange, which has been going on for years now and has developed into a long-distance friendship, is with John L. Work, a retired policeman and detective in Colorado with 24 years service in law enforcement and investigation with police and sheriff's office, as well as the Colorado public defender's office.

John, whose analysis has appeared at this website from time to time, has pulled together something very unusual and important, which I am publishing below. It is in the form of an affadavit, the kind of document he used to put together as a detective, amassing evidence in this case about the apparent concealment of documents attesting to the identity and activities of President Barack Hussein Obama. The fact is, the birth certificate controversy is only the beginning of the presidential mystery. There is so much we don't know for certain about President Obama. Inexplicably but intriguigingly, he has failed to produce his bona fides, while the media (and the White House media in particular), who could ask for them, don't care, or don't want to care.

I culled from John's affadavit what is undoubtedly an incomplete list of the Obama documents that we, the people, have just never gotten a look at due to Obama's decision not to let us look.

Sure, there's: (1) the original, long-form 1961 Hawaiian birth certificate. Then there's: 2) Marriage license between Obama's father (Barak Sr.) and mother (Stanley Ann Dunham) -- not found, not released 3) Obama's baptism records -- sealed 4) Obama's adoption records -- sealed 5) Records of Obama's and his mother's reptriation as US citizens on return from Indonesia -- not found, not released 6) Name change (Barry Sotero to Barack Hussein Obama) records -- not found, not released 7) Noelani Elementary School (Hawaii) -- not released 8) Punahou School financial aid or school records -- not released 9) Occidental College financial aid records -- not released. (These records were, however, subpoenaed but Obama lawyers succeeded in quashing the subpoena in court. No other Occi records have been released.) 10) Columbia College records -- not released 11) Columbia senior thesis -- not released 12) Harvard Law School records (not mentioned below, but not released) 13) Obama's law client list -- sealed 14) Obama's files from career as an Illinois State Senator -- sealed 15) Obama's record with Illinois State Bar Association -- sealed 16) Obama's medical records -- not released 17) Obama's passport records -- not released That's a lot of records sealed and not released. But there's much more to "the case." Read it and see what you as an American citizen think.

The Case Against Barack Hussein Obama

The writer, John L. Work, a retired commissioned Colorado Peace Officer and a citizen of the United States of America, herein presents the following facts and circumstances regarding The President of The United States, Barack Hussein Obama. This writer states to this Honorable Court of Public Opinion that Barack Hussein Obama has failed to truthfully disclose to the American People a substantial amount of documentary evidence about his origins and history, to wit:

Barack Hussein Obama, AKA Barry Obama, AKA Barry Soetoro, AKA Barry Dunham, DOB 8-4-1961, the duly elected and sworn President of The United States of America, has not proven that he is Constitutionally eligible to hold that Office. The reasons this writer believes this to be true are as follows:

1) Former Pennsylvania Deputy Attorney General Phillip Berg states in a lawsuit filed in 2008 that Obama’s father, Barack Obama, Sr., was at the time of Barack, Jr.’s birth a British subject of Kenya, Africa.

2) Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham (DOB 11-29-1942), was not old enough to legally confer American citizenship on Barack, Jr. at his birth.

3) Affidavits sworn to and signed by Rev. Kweli Shuhubia and Bishop Ron McRae say that Obama’s paternal grandmother, Sarah Obama, stated during an interview conducted in both the Swahili and English languages that she was present at Barack Obama, Jr.’s birth in Mombasa, Kenya.

4) Publication of Hawaiian newspaper birth announcements in 1961 did not necessarily constitute proof that a birth actually occurred within the State and offer no legal substantiation of citizenship in and of themselves; further, during 1961  Hawaii’s law allowed issuance of Hawaiian birth certification for babies born outside the United States

5) In his book “Dreams from My Father” Obama claims that, following his birth, his married parents lived together in Hawaii until 1962. Jerome Corsi (Ph.D. Harvard University), an internationally recognized scholar, author and investigative reporter, has discovered documentary evidence which shows that in fact Stanley Ann Dunham and her new-born son Barack, Jr., moved to Seattle, Washington within two weeks of his birth;  and that Stanley Ann started Fall semester classes there as a university student.

6) Jerome Corsi has been unable to locate any recorded evidence in Hawaii of either a marriage between Barack, Sr. and Stanley Dunham, or that they ever lived together.

7) Aaron Klein, author of The Manchurian President, reported in the October 27, 2009 World Net Daily that Obama’s wife, Michelle Obama, publicly stated that Stanley Ann Dunham was single when she had Barack, Jr.

8) The Maui News published a report on January 21, 2009, in which former teachers Aimee Yatsushiro and Katherine Nakamoto said that Obama attended Noelani Elementary School from 1966 to 1967. No records from the school have been released.

9) Circa 1967 Stanley Ann Dunham married an Indonesian Muslim named Lolo Soetoro (DOB circa 1935).

10) The Soetoros lived in Jakarta, Indonesia where Barack, Jr. attended Franciskus Assissi school under the name Barry Soetoro, registered as a Muslim. He later attended an Indonesian public school.

11) Stanley Soetoro divorced Lolo in 1980. No records of either Stanley Ann’s or Barry Soetoro’s repatriation as citizens of the United States from Indonesia have been released.  No name change records have been released.

12) A report published by Chelsea Schilling on 6-9-2009 in World Net Daily says: a) that Obama attended Punahou School in Honolulu on a scholarship from 5th through 12th grades, and graduated in 1979. b) that none of Obama’s Punahou school financial records have been released.

13) Schilling’s report further states: a)  that Obama attended Occidental College in Los Angeles from 1979 to 1981. b) that attorney Gary Kreep of the U.S. Justice Foundation served a subpoena on the College for Obama’s financial and scholarship records in order to determine if Obama, who was studying on a scholarship, attended Occidental as a foreign national.  c)  that attorneys for Obama intervened and got the subpoena quashed in Court. d) that none of Obama’s Occidental financial records have been released.

14) Schilling’s report also states: a)  In 1982 Obama transferred from Occidental to Columbia University in NYC. b) that while he claims to have been active in the Black Student Organization, no one among a number of prominent student leaders interviewed by the New York Times recalled Obama being there.  c)  that Fox News contacted 400 Columbia students from that time period – and not one of them remembered him. d) that Obama graduated from Columbia in 1983, but school officials claim they do not have a copy of his senior thesis.  e)  that Obama has refused to release his Columbia transcripts.

15) Schilling’s report further states that Obama entered Harvard University Law School, graduated in 1991 and that he served as the Editor of The Harvard Law Review.

16) Schilling’s report also says: a)  that Obama has not released his medical records. b) that Obama’s passport records have never been released  c)  that Obama at one point in his life traveled to Pakistan, using a passport of unknown origin   d)  that all files from Obama’s years as an Illinois State Senator are sealed.  e)  that Obama’s law client list is sealed. f) that Obama’s records with the Illinois State Bar Association are sealed.  g)  that Obama’s baptism records are sealed. h) that Obama’s adoption records are sealed.

17) An AP report published on 6-27-2004 in the Sunday Standard online edition states that Obama was born in Kenya.

18) Mayhill Fowler reported in the April 7, 2008 Huffington Post on an Obama April 6, 2008 fundraiser speech, during which Obama claimed to have traveled to Pakistan when he was in college. On 4-18-2010 this writer followed Mayhill’s link to an audio-recording of the speech and found that it has been removed from the site.

19) Jerome Corsi reported in World Net Daily on 10-26-2008 that Obama’s original long-form birth certificate is sealed by Hawaii’s Governor, Linda Lingle.

20) On 11-13-2008, attorney at law and author Debbie Schlussel published a copyrighted report of an investigation she commissioned to be done by retired ICE Agent Stephen Coffman into Obama’s Selective Service registration documents. Coffman’s evidentiary findings led to Schlussel’s conclusion that Barack Obama “...either didn’t register for the draft or did so belatedly and fraudulently...”

21) On 8-10-2009 Hawaii Department of Health spokesperson Janet Okubo refused to verify the authenticity of an image, generated by computer and released to the press corps by Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt. LaBolt said that the image depicted was Barack Obama’s birth certificate.  Okubo also refused to confirm the veracity of a second and different online computer-generated Hawaiian Certification of Live Birth, posted by FactCheck.org.

22) On October 1, 2009, Susan Daniels, a citizen of the State of Ohio and a licensed private investigator for the plaintiffs in United States District Court Case SACV09-00082-DOC (Anx), Captain Pamela Barnett et al v. Defendants Barack Hussein Obama, Michelle L. R. Obama, Hillary Rodham Clinton, Robert M. Gates, and Joseph R. Biden, filed an affidavit with the Court.  Daniels’ affidavit states that she has found evidence proving that Barack Obama’s Social Security Number was issued by the State of Connecticut between 1977 and 1979; further, that Obama’s Social Security Number appears to be originally associated with a man who was born in the 1890s and is now deceased.

23) Susan Daniels filed a second affidavit with the Court on October 19, 2009, which says that further investigation uncovered eight different Social Security Numbers for Barack Hussein Obama in addition to the number to which she alluded in her first affidavit, and two different Social Security Numbers for Michelle Obama.

24) This writer states to this Honorable Court of Public Opinion that there is no known evidence of record to this date which shows that Barack Hussein Obama ever lived in Connecticut.

25) Article 2, Section 1 of the Constitution of The United States of America mandates that “...No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States...”

Wherefore, this writer believes he has shown reasonable grounds to believe that Barack Hussein Obama has deliberately, unreasonably and with guile concealed nearly all records of his personal documented history from public scrutiny; and that requests to view those records are reasonable, rational and within the American People’s province. This writer believes the People of The United States have a right and responsibility to demand that all of the afore-described sealed records be released in order that the electorate may examine them to finally determine who Barack Hussein Obama really is, and whence he came.

Bunch of questions
Thanks. --Yair rand (talk) 23:33, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) Are all articles published displayed on the main page?
 * 2) What makes something "newsworthy"? Newsworthiness doesn't really explain much, but since WN has portals that, I assume, could at some point be full news sources for small topics/locations, the standard for newsworthiness is quite lower than that of the regular media? Could someone tell me which of the following things would be usually newsworthy (if any): the stuff that gets into the Wikipedia Signpost, news that gets put up on video game news sites, minor news about a small area of technology or something, news about competitive events that most people have never even heard of, news relevant to a very small area?
 * 3) Article layout in a nutshell says that articles should "aim for at least three paragraphs". Is this required? Is there any way to create articles about things that can't be stretched out to that size?
 * 4) Is this the right place to ask these questions?
 * All news is published on main page (but not all articles are made lead articles where they get a blurb+pict on main page [although many/most do]. All articles get listed under latest news on the main page).
 * Newsworthiness is subjective. Signpost stuff is generally considered out of scope because we want to avoid reporting on ourselves (and by extension wikimedia) unless its something really newsworthy. The canonical example of something not newsworthy is User:Edbrown05/Grass in Uncle G's back garden continues to grow. If its something that is not newsworthy enough to get into a local small town paper, it probably isn't newsworthy. (what is newsworthy is a matter of debate, at times similar to deletionist/inclusionist debate at 'pedia). If in doubt, feel free to ask (irc is best, but leaving a message here, or on someone's talk page is also fine).
 * Three paragraphs is the minimum for normal articles. You can also do a collection of multiple super short articles - Wikinews Shorts: January 21, 2009 which don't necessarily have to be 3 paragraphs.
 * This is as good a place as any to ask. Many wikinewsies hang out on WN:IRC, and that is also a very good place to ask (and will probably get you a faster answer).

Anyone care to review Robbery suspect flees on riding mower?
This story was already going somewhat viral when I wrote it; it wouldn't be a bad thing if we could pick up some of the audience that goes with that. (Just don't assume I didn't screw up badly.) --Pi zero (talk) 14:14, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

Title Change
A review of my page said that my title was insufficient. How do I change it?ΦAbhaiΦ (talk) 15:00, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
 * On the top right hand corner of the screen there is a bunch of tabs like 'edit', 'view history', etc. There should also be a drop down menu. One of the entries of the drop down menu should be 'rename'. Click that. If you have trouble please don't hesitate to ask. (Note, If you're a new user [new = registered an account less then three days ago] you can't move pages until you're listed as autoconfirmed in special:preferences. If this applies to you, please ask someone else to move it for you, making sure to tell them what its current name is and what its name should be). Cheers. Bawolff ☺☻ 05:37, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Note, diego seems to already have done this for you. Bawolff ☺☻ 05:38, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
 * User account was [ created on the 12th]. --Pi zero (talk) 11:43, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Allow me to do my cracked record routine and say the software is moronic; if somebody can create a page they can rename it. It makes sense. Blood Red Sandman  (Talk)   (Contribs) 11:47, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Before publication, yes. After publication, right now it's too easy to rename.  It's possible that a solution to the latter would help alleviate the former (since a "request rename" tab could be presented to registered users before they're autoconfirmed).  --Pi zero (talk) 19:42, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I suspect many FlaggedRevs users would vote for a "request rename" bug. Off the top of my head, I can't remember all the details on the anon/new/autoconfirmed/reviewed currently in-effect.Definitely should be driven with Wikinews' usage for preliminary definition of the change request. --Brian McNeil / talk 22:52, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Permissions are listed at special:usergrouprights. If we want new users (or even anon's) to be able to rename stuff, its a trivially simple config change (the type that devs will do without a fuss if there is "community consensus"). The issue comes in with the interaction with flagged revisions not applying to page moves (I thought there was a bug for that. Maybe not, or in any case couldn't find it). Bawolff ☺☻ 03:06, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Clarification: by " 'request rename' tab", I meant to refer to an idea I'd floated at the tail end of a policy thread back in June, Limit page move to reviewers?. Only reviewers could actually perform page moves, but everyone would have a "request rename" tab (or something) that could be used to put a template on the talk page requesting that a reviewer please move the page to such-and-such. The template would be somewhat akin to editprotected, but presumably it would have a button on it so that a reviewer could grant the request with a single click. --Pi zero (talk) 04:46, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

? creating a category
I am new to wikinews and would appreciate advice about how to create a category to include articles related to the English county of Somerset. On wikipedia I edit quite a few articles related to Somerset as part of WikiProject Somerset. I have recently revised the Somerset Portal and it is currently a Featured Portal Candidate. As part of this it has been suggested I add a link to relevant stories on wikinews - however I have no idea about the best way to achieve this - any help appreciated.Rodw (talk) 22:14, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

'Completely irresponsible' woman called emergency services to report theft of snowman

December 4, 2010

Police in Kent, England have described a woman who called the to report the theft of a  as "completely irresponsible." The woman rang after noticing the snowman outside her house had vanished.

"There's been a theft from outside my house," she told the operator. "I haven't been out to check on him for five hours but I went outside for a fag and he's gone." When asked who had disappeared, the woman said: "my snowman." Chief inspector Simon Black said that the call "could have cost someone's life if there was a genuine emergency and they couldn't get through."

The woman told the operator: "I thought that with it being icy and there not being anybody about he'd be safe. It ain't a nice road but you don't expect anybody to nick your snowman." Black said that they had spoken with the woman and warned her not to call unless she was in an emergency.

Even though abusing the emergency services system is a prosecutable offence in Britain, she will not be charged. "In this case the woman genuinely thought this was a theft that she should report it because she'd used coins for the eyes and teaspoons for the arms," Black added.

Yeah, you're a typical clueless 'Nigel'. Belgium happens to be home to most of the really heavyweight European institutions; NATO, EuroControl, European Commission and Parliament.

So, how much power and influence does your local hicksville have?

Thread:Comments:Interpol orders arrest of Wikileaks founder to face rape charges/Assange wasn't informed of his charges/reply (5)

Correction: The details that were brought to my attention were that there were two women filed complaints. Both in Sweden, whilst Julian was working to secure residency and full protection under Sweden's press laws for Wikileaks.

What's unusual is, neither complaint is 'clear-cut rape'; both women stated that something consentual switched to non-consentual. One case, apparently, is a woman saying JA refused to stop when a condom broke...

I've had condoms break - one more than one occasion. I've noticed; never-ever has my female partner felt the breakage.

So, yes, the whole thing stinks. There's some irony in JA seeking to exploit Sweden's strong press laws, then facing their strong rape/women's rights laws. It stinks. To be honest, it looks like mega-clumsy cold war playbook shtick. What next? Polonium via a spiked umbrella in his chosen UK hidey-hole? Puh-leeze.
