Sport research/Getting published

Universities and other research institutes genearlly rely on research as a part of their income stream. In Australia, the government's Excellence in Research Australia initiative assesses research quality within Australia's higher education institutions using a combination of indicators and expert review by committees comprising experienced, internationally-recognised experts. Part of this initiative encourages Universitity academics to publish in academic journals and funding for publications is determind by the ERA-determined quality of the journal. Publications do not just serve financial means though, they also assist the advancement of knowledge and improve society.

Open access
Sharing information helps to maximise its potential impact on society. Open access peer-reviewed publications and open access teaching materials offer greater potential for collective knowledge-development than restricted publication via proprietary publishing houses which only allows access to material to the economically privileged. In particular, many believe that scientific knowledge created by publically funded organisations (such as many Universities) have an extra obligation to ensure all public have open and free access to research created in these places. Open access thus forms another consideration when deciding on which academic journal to choose for submission for publication.

 * The Directory of Open Access Journals

Peer review
From Wikipedia's Scholarly peer review section

 * Scholarly peer review (also known as refereeing) is the process of subjecting an author's scholarly work, research, or ideas to the scrutiny of others who are experts in the same field, before a paper describing this work is published in a journal. The work may be accepted, considered acceptable with revisions, or rejected. Peer review requires a community of experts in a given (and often narrowly defined) field, who are qualified and able to perform impartial review. Impartial review, especially of work in less narrowly defined or inter-disciplinary fields, may be difficult to accomplish; and the significance (good or bad) of an idea may never be widely appreciated among its contemporaries. Although generally considered essential to academic quality, and used in most important scientific publications, peer review has been criticized as ineffective, slow, and misunderstood[by whom?] (see anonymous peer review and open peer review). Recently there have been some experiments with wiki-style, signed, peer reviews, for example in an issue of the Shakespeare Quarterly.[15]

An interesting debate on the justification, criticism, process and different types of peer review follow in the wikipedia entry.

The process
Most academic journals have a website with 'instructions to authors'. Every journal tends to have subtle differences in how they want work presented, especially the referencing style (check out to see if the journal already has a style in the referncing tool that you use, or you may be able to find one online). The instruction to authors describe the scope of the journal as well as the details of the layout they require for publication. After you have written up your research, and your co-authors have all agreed its ready for submission, most journals will have an online tool through which you upload your manuscript. Often figures need to be sent as separate files, and details of their format should also appeart in the instructions to authors.

Here is the instructions for authors for the Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise journal as an example.

Once submitted, your manuscript will go through a peer review process and decisions will be made about the appropriateness and worthiness of publication in their journal. Your manuscript will probably be rejected, or at least delayed, if you havent followed the instructions to authors. Hoppin has a published (open access) paper providing insights on how he reviews original scientific research articles and it would be a good idea to consider how your manuscript might hold-up to this scrutiny. Reviewers will generally suggest some changes, and ideally, the reviewer will provide lots of constructive criticism that will allow you to improve, and resubmit your manuscript.

The review process is an interesting undertaken in itself and a number of publishers and journals have provided articles offering advice to reviewers. Provenzale and Stanley write an article titled A Systematic Guide to Reviewing a Manuscript (open access) which is particularly useful for checking your own writing against prior to Journal submission, or even in the planning stages of a manuscript.

Handling rejection
According to a 2007 study, 62% of scientific papers have been rejected for publication at least once. Rejection is somewhat common, but it should be seen as an opportunity to improve the manuscript. Handling manuscript rejection is an excellent (open access) paper on your options and insights on interpreting rejection comments. Well worth a read.

Activity
Activities are mini-tasks that will give you some practice with the concepts of each section. Activities should appear here soon, if not, feel free to add some open access ones yourself.

Task

 * 1) Decide on a journal that you would like to get published in and your manuscript is appropriate for (always best to aim slightly higher than you think where it will get published)
 * 2) Read over their instructions to authors, make any formatting changes you need to.
 * 3) Submit for publication using their online submission process.
 * 4) Wait for the feedback. If you are published, congratulations! If not, have a good read over the comments, take a deep breath, and get on with the changes to improve your paper asap. Resubmit to either the same, or a different journal.

Resources

 * How to publish a scientific paper by Sharon Downes
 * How to write up your results for publication by Paul Doughty
 * Previous workshops at the University of Canberra about writing have been blogged by Professor Keith Lyons. Robert Brown (2010) workshops part 1 and part 2 as well as Louise Ada's (2009) excellent insights into getting published.

Sport research/Grant applications

Research often requires funding to allow it to happen, and many research careers will be judged (rightly or wrongly) on research monies won. So grant funding can be a big deal, and it's generally competitive, so isn't the easiest thing to attract.

Planning is key to the application, ensure you complete the grant application well ahead of time offering time for a number of reviewers to add comments. Most research institutes will have internal staff dedicated to this. Support from external organisations is also important, approach them early and with a well developed proposal to maximise the chance of their support.

Grant sources
There are lots of sources of grants and any organisations or associations associated with your field of study (e.g. Diabetes Australia, Exercise & Sport Science Australia) are a good place to start looking. There are also more prestigious grant funders that will offer greater funds but are also more competitive. In Australia, category 1 grants (the most prestigious) are dominated by Australian Research Council (ARC) and National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) funding. However, all grant applications tend to be similar in regards to required information although the length of applications can vary dramatically. Generally grants take weeks, or even months to put together and get colloborators together, so don't leave it to the last minute... Your competitors won't.

To find grant funding opportunities try these tools:
 * SPIN Database
 * Australian Government GrantsLINK

Most research institutions will have their own record of potential funders, so check with them as well. It is also worth looking at research published in your field. If the research has been funded the source of funding should be acknowledged in the paper and will give you an idea of which funding bodies and organisations to target for grant opportunities.

Grant writing
Organisations offering grants are generally bombarded with applications, so make sure the first page has all the information needed and can be read by experts in the field as well as the administrators who will also influence the decision. Typical sections include:

Project Summary
The summary should contain a stand alone brief of the project. Coming at the start of the application, this may be the only section that is read, so make it count. Similar to other research proposals, you need to address all the major issues that appear in the rest of the grant application, but keep it succinct and only add the most relevant information. Consider what reviewers will deem important and highlight these aspects in your summary. Things such as:
 * clearly addressing the selection criteria
 * need for research is shown
 * significance of research to a population
 * research design and methodology is able to achieve what it sets out to

Lay description
You need to be able to describe the project briefly to the lay public.

Background
Just like any research output you need to make a case for the research you are doing. The background of your prject should review the current literature, but go further by breaking it down to identify what else is needed. The background will generally include information such as; what is known in the area (research that has already been conducted), what is unknown or gaps in the literature (make a case for this using evidence wherever possible) and why there is a need to do the research (significance of the research to the body of knowledge on the topic).

Aims / Hypotheses
What are the aims and hypotheses of the research project? Does the research design address these? Have a look back at What is research

Designs & Methods
Address everything about research design and methods. Remember that experts will be looking at the proposal and asking whether or not the design is able to scientifically answer the questions being raised. To strengthen your application, even go as far as power calculations.

Significance
This section is crucial- why is the research important? How does it contribute to the world or a specific population? Address this clearly, showing the link between your proposal and some greater benefit with evidence and logic. Also articulate how the research is significant to the funding body's own objectives.

Significance
Here it is again, it's important, get it? What does the study hope to achieve or contribute towards? You do not want it to be a dead-end, satisfy a curiosity, help very few people or not be aligned to the funding body's objectives. You  do  want it to lead to further research, save lots of money (e.g. Health system), improve quality of life, reduce mortality, etc. Link the significance of the study to these values succinctly and with evidence.

Capacity/standing of researcher/team/institute(s)
Part of the selection criteria for most grants is standings and capacity of the researcher (team/institute) performing the research. This means a previous strong research record is a strong (sometimes critical) part of the application. This leads to strategic collaborations as well as well filled out applications. The researchers' record is fairly easy to do (publication lists, research in the area highlighted, previously successful research grant funding) but don't forget to address capacity. Does the institute already perform work in the area (either as research or consultancy), do they have the equipment and facilities required for the research already, does the research team having training in the required areas to perform the research?

Support from Partner Organisations
Applications are more powerful if others working in the area agree the research is needed and are prepared to support it. For instance, if doing work in diabetes, have the local Diabetes Association support it. This can be just in the form of a letter of support, but will say more if they agree to support the research more directly, this could be in terms of direct funds, provision of equipment, access to participants etc.

Have you consulted with the local community. Do they agree there is a need for the research or service? Get letters of support where possible to assist showing the significance of the work.

Budget
Prepare a realistic budget, include all the items you can think of, and also be prepared to alter the requirements if the funding body is only prepared to fund a portion of the work. Funders will point out what they are more or less likely to fund. Take note of this and ensure that you do not include items in your budget that will not be funded. In some cases it will be beneficial to show that the work can become self sufficient over time.

Budget items will include costs such as:
 * staffing
 * equipment
 * consumables
 * participant related costs
 * facility costs
 * transport
 * promotion/advertising
 * costs of research output (publication/conferences)

Timelines
Prepare a realistic timeline of milestones of the project. Milestones will includes events such as:
 * ethics approval
 * participant recruitment
 * data collection
 * research/report output

Task

 * 1) Find a suitable grant to apply for, write 200 words on why it is suitable for your project (this will come in handy later)
 * 2) Complete the application and have a number of others (mentors) read over and comment on it.

Resources

 * Writing a good grant proposal by Jones and Bundy.
 * Hopkin's has general advice about scientific writing and specific advice about grants, proposals, and ethics applications in Writing Pre Data (slideshow).
 * The art of grantsmanship by Jacom Kraicer - ***Outstanding advice***
 * Guide for writing a funding proposal by S. Joseph Levine - a great source of info.

Lentivirus/Small-ruminant lentiviruses

The small-ruminant lentiviruses (SRLVs) are a genetically and antigenically heterogeneous group of viruses infecting sheep and goats. The small-ruminant lentiviruses ovine maedi-visna virus (MVV) and caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) cause encephalitis, progressive pneumonia, arthritis, and mastitis in sheep and goats. SRLV isolates are classified into five genotype clusters designated A through E. Maedi-visna virus-like strains belong to genotype A.  Caprine arthritis encephalitis virus (CAEV)-like strains belong to genotype B.  Genotype A infects sheep. Genotypes B and E infect goats.

SRLV's genome contains the gag, pol, and env structural genes and the vif, tat/vpr, and rev accessory genes characteristic of lentivirus genomes.

Constitutional and institutional law of the European Union.

Section C: Remedies and procedures in European Union law.

Chapter 5: Actions for failure to act.

Notes by Kaihsu Tai, 2010-12-17.

Legal basis
Should the European Parliament, the European Council, the Council, the Commission or the European Central Bank, in infringement of the Treaties, fail to act, the Member States and the other institutions of the Union may bring an action before the Court of Justice of the European Union to have the infringement established. This Article shall apply, under the same conditions, to bodies, offices and agencies of the Union which fail to act.

The action shall be admissible only if the institution, body, office or agency concerned has first been called upon to act. If, within two months of being so called upon, the institution, body, office or agency concerned has not defined its position, the action may be brought within a further period of two months.

Any natural or legal person may, under the conditions laid down in the preceding paragraphs, complain to the Court that an institution, body, office or agency of the Union has failed to address to that person any act other than a recommendation or an opinion.

Distinguish from actions for annulment, Article 263 TFEU. The content of the judgment, if the action is successful, is a declaration by the Court that an institution has acted unlawfully by failing to act.

Negative decisions
A party requesting the repeal of an act which is rejected cannot bring an action for failure to repeal under Article 265 TFEU; if this were allowed, it would provide a parallel recourse to Article 263 (actions for annulment) not subject to the same conditions: Joined cases 10 and 18/68 Eridania v Commission.

Locus standi
As in Article 263 TFEU, privileged applicants always have locus standi under Article 265 TFEU. The condition for locus standi for private applicants are the same in Article 265 TFEU as in Article 263 TFEU: Case C-107/91 ENU v Commission.

Complex socio-ecological systems

SEMINAR ON RESILIENCE OF COMPLEX SOCIO-ECOLOGICAL SYSTEMS

Instructors: Dr. Robert Buschbacher and Dr. Simone Athayde, University of Florida.

This reading and discussion group will be surveying literature related to Resilience of Complex Social-ecological Systems and discussing how these concepts can be applied in TCD (Tropical Conservation and Development) research and practice.

Participants will read approximately 2 articles per week, and post online comments prior to each meeting. Participants will take turns leading discussions; discussion leaders will also post a brief summary of each article online.

Our discussions will focus on the theory and concepts presented in the articles, and also on how we can apply these concepts to specific social-ecological systems where participants have worked or are planning to conduct graduate research. Participants will therefore have the opportunity to work on incorporating theory and concepts into their research proposals throughout the semester. The final assignment consists of each participant writing a brief reflection paper (1-2 pages), in informal writing, sharing their thoughts on how they might apply some of the main concepts and theories reviewed throughout the semester in their research.

On this web site, we will develop an annotated bibliography for each weekly topic. Please follow the link to each week's topic, where we will enter the literature citations, posting of pre-discussion ideas about the article, and finally a summary of the discussion on that topic.

An annotated bibliography is a list of citations to books, articles, and documents. Each citation is followed by a brief (usually about 150 words) descriptive and evaluative paragraph, the annotation. The purpose of the annotation is to inform the reader of the relevance, accuracy, and quality of the sources cited. A guide on how to prepare an annotated bibliography with some examples and suggestions can be found at: http://olinuris.library.cornell.edu/ref/research/skill28.htm

 * List of Participants

 * Other Annotated Bibliography entries

User:Kaihsu/EUlawC6

Constitutional and institutional law of the European Union.

Section C: Remedies and procedures in European Union law.

Chapter 6: Member state liability for failure to comply with EU law.

Notes by Kaihsu Tai, 2011-10-17.

Equivalence and effectiveness
In principle, the Member States implement EU law within their existing legal systems, retaining procedural autonomy: Case 33/76 Rewe v Saarland. However there are two conditions: equivalence and effectiveness. National procedural “rules [1] must not be less favourable than those governing similar domestic actions [2] nor render virtually impossible or excessively difficult the exercise of rights conferred” by EU law; “a rule of national law preventing the procedure laid down in” Article 267 TFEU (preliminary rulings) “from being followed must be set aside”: summarized in Case C-312/93 Peterbroeck v Belgium.

“Where a directive is transposed belatedly into a Member State’s domestic law and the relevant provisions of the directive do not have direct effect, the national courts are bound to interpret domestic law so far as possible, once the period for transposition has expired, in the light of the wording and the purpose of the directive concerned with a view to achieving the results sought by the directive, favouring the interpretation of the national rules which is the most consistent with that purpose in order thereby to achieve an outcome compatible with the provisions of the directive”: Case-212/04 Adeneler.

There is no requirement for the national court to “raise of its own motion a plea alleging infringement of the provisions of Community legislation, since neither the principle of equivalence nor the principle of effectiveness require it to do so”: C-222/05 van der Weerd.

ECJ can review national administrative decisions which by court of final instance judgment has become final, without a plea relying on EU law by claimant in the national court; there is no “limit in time for making an application for review of an administrative decision that has become final. The Member States nevertheless remain free to set reasonable time-limits for seeking remedies”: Case C-2/06 Kempter.

To ensure effectiveness, interim relief can be granted by national courts in challenges of compatibility with EU law; but effectiveness does not require providing new remedies in national law such as a free-standing declaration of incompatibility: Case C-432/05 Unibet v Justitiekanslern.

The Francovich principle
A Member State is liable to compensate individuals for loss caused to them as a result of a breach of EU law for which the Member State is responsible: Case C-6/90 Francovich v Italy. "[Union] law confers a right to reparation where three conditions are met: [1] the rule of law infringed must be intended to confer rights on individuals; [2] the breach must be sufficiently serious; and [3] there must be a direct causal link between the breach of the obligation resting on the state and the damage sustained by the injured parties."

This includes wrongful acts by the legislature: Joined cases C-46/93 and C-48/93 Brasserie du Pêcheur v Germany and The Queen v Secretary of State for Transport ex parte Factortame and Others. This also includes an incorrect ruling by the judiciary causing “a serious breach”: Case C-224/01 Köbler v Austria, confirmed in Case C-173/03 Traghetti del Mediterraneo. Therefore, state liability covers all three Montesquian branches of governance.

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 Delitus. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Delitus~enwikiversity 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 23:31, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Gammaretrovirus

The Gammaretrovirus (mammalian type C retroviruses) is a sister genus to the lentivirus clade. Like the lentivirus, it is a member of the Orthoretrovirinae subfamily of the retrovirus family. The Murine leukemia virus (MLV or MuLV), the Feline leukemia virus (FeLV), the Gibbon ape leukemia virus (GALV), and Xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) are members of the Gammaretrovirus genus. XMRV is a relative of MuLV that can can be isolated from human prostate tumor cells. Both ends of Gammaretrovirus genome are flanked by long terminal repeats (LTRs). The gag region of its genome codes for MA, pp12, CA, and NC. These accessory proteins are cleaved by protease. The pro/pol region codes for PR, RT, and IN. These are also cleaved by protease. Genomes of mammalian type C retroviruses contain a UAG termination codon between the gag and pol coding regions. The env gene codes for SU and TM which are again cleaved by protease.

Office suites

Applications for office purposes, such as editing documents and spreadsheets, are good uses for the OpenOffice suite of applications. If you are migrating from a Windows environment, this suite is very similar to Microsoft Office, with similar applications and file formats.

OpenOffice can typically be installed through your distribution's package manager. If not, check the OpenOffice website, here. They should have your distribution and processor type available. OpenOffice comes with applications called "Writer" (documents), "Calc" (spreadsheets), "Base" (database management), "Impress" (presentations), and "Math" (expression editor).

Writer
Writer is the document editor of the OpenOffice suite. If you have used Windows or Mac versions of Microsoft Word, Writer should feel very familiar to you. It has many of the same features and has compatibility with Microsoft Word.

After Writer starts, you may start typing your document. To format text with elements like Bold or Italic, simply highlight the text you would like to format and click the respective buttons.

Calc
Calc is the spreadsheet editor of the OpenOffice suite. If you have used Windows or Mac versions of Microsoft Excel, Calc should feel somewhat familiar to you. It has many of the same features and uses the same concept of cells.

Long terminal repeats

Long terminal repeats (LTRs) are sequences of DNA that repeat hundreds or thousands of times. They are found in retroviral DNA and in retrotransposons, flanking functional genes. They are used by viruses to control of gene expression and integration. For example, a retrovirus genome might contain the following features:

 * LTR -- gag -- pol -- env -- LTR

The LTRs are partially transcribed into an RNA intermediate, followed by reverse transcription into complementary DNA (cDNA) and ultimately dsDNA (double-stranded DNA) with full LTRs. The LTRs then mediate integration of the retroviral DNA via an LTR specific integrase into another region of the host chromosome. Retroviruses such as Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) use this basic mechanism.

quiz
{Long terminal repeats (LTRs) are sequences of DNA that ________ hundreds or thousands of times. + repeat - repeats - repeating - repeated
 * type="[]"}
 * Correct! LTRs are sequences that repeat multiple times.
 * Incorrect. The subject 'sequences' is plural, so the verb should be 'repeat'.
 * Incorrect. The verb form 'repeating' doesn't fit the sentence structure.
 * Incorrect. The sentence is in present tense, so 'repeated' is not appropriate.

{They are found in retroviral DNA and in retrotransposons, ________ functional genes. - finding - finds + flanking - flanked
 * type="[]"}
 * Incorrect. The verb form 'finding' doesn't fit the sentence structure.
 * Incorrect. The subject 'They' is plural, so the verb should be 'flank'.
 * Correct! The LTRs flank functional genes.
 * Incorrect. The sentence is in present tense, so 'flanked' is not appropriate.

{They are used by viruses to ________ of gene expression and integration. - control + take control - taking control - took control
 * type="[]"}
 * Incorrect. The preposition 'to' requires an infinitive form of the verb.
 * Correct! Viruses use LTRs to take control of gene expression and integration.
 * Incorrect. The verb form 'taking' doesn't fit the sentence structure.
 * Incorrect. The sentence is in present tense, so 'took' is not appropriate.

{The LTRs are partially transcribed into an RNA intermediate, followed by reverse transcription into complementary DNA (cDNA) and ultimately dsDNA (double-stranded DNA) with full ________. - LTR + LTRs - LTR's - LTRing
 * type="[]"}
 * Incorrect. The word 'LTR' is singular, but the context suggests a plural form.
 * Correct! The LTRs are transcribed and then integrated into dsDNA with full LTRs.
 * Incorrect. The possessive form 'LTR's' is not appropriate here.
 * Incorrect. 'LTRing' is not a valid term.

{The LTRs then mediate integration of the retroviral DNA via an LTR specific ________ into another region of the host chromosome. - integrase - integrases + integrase - integrating
 * type="[]"}
 * Incorrect. The word 'integrase' is singular, but the context suggests a plural form.
 * Incorrect. The word 'integrases' is plural, but the context suggests a singular form.
 * Correct! The LTRs mediate integration via an LTR-specific integrase.
 * Incorrect. The verb form 'integrating' doesn't fit the sentence structure.

{Retroviruses such as Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) ________ this basic mechanism. - use + use - uses - using
 * type="[]"}
 * Incorrect. The subject 'Retroviruses' is plural, so the verb should be 'use'.
 * Correct! Retroviruses, like HIV, use this basic mechanism.
 * Incorrect. The subject 'Retroviruses' is plural, so the verb should be 'use'.
 * Incorrect. The verb form 'using' doesn't fit the sentence structure.

Group-specific antigen

Group-specific antigen (gag) is the genetic material that codes for the core structural proteins of a retrovirus.

gag in HIV
gag proteins are encoded by the gag gene, and provide structural elements of the virus.

 * gag = p24 + p6 + p7 + p17

p24 makes up the viral capsid. When a Western blot test is used to detect HIV infection, p24 is one of the three major proteins tested for, along with gp160 (= gp120 + gp41). p6 and p7 are included in the nucleocapsid. p17 provides a protective matrix (a protein that forms a scaffold during virion assembly).

Hungarian language/Alphabet

See also the corresponding artice on Wikipedia.

The alphabet

 * Digraphs:Some consonants look like two (or three) English symbols and represent a single Hungarian letter.

 * Long vs. short:The alphabet lists all the short and long vowels, but not the long consonants . Nonetheless each letter has a long variant, which alters the meaning of the word. Long vowels are indicated by acute (ˊ) or double acute (˝) -- the only diacritic in Hungarian. Long simple consonants are written doubled (fusson); long digraph consonants have only their first letter doubled (messze). Thus, long digraphs are written as followed:
 * ccs (=cs+cs), ddz (=dz+dz), ddzs (=dzs+dzs), ggy (=gy+gy), lly (=ly+ly), nny (=ny+ny), ssz (=sz+sz), tty (=ty+ty), zzs (=zs+zs)
 * unless they are cut from each other at the end of the line, in which case they are written separately (vissza → visz-sza). It may happen that two identical digraph consonants meet in a compound word on the roots' boundary, but from grammatical view that is not a long consonant and is written accordingly (lánynyak).

 * Foreign letters:Note that there are no q, w and x letters in the (official) Hungarian alphabet because they do not occur in native Hungarian words. Also there is no y letter on its own, but it occurs in digraphs gy, ly, ny and ty. In exceptional cases, unusual letters may occur in Hungarian words, such as the x in Xénia (name), or ch in pech (=hard luck) being a single letter pronounced as in German. Other similar words, such as szex (=sexuality, sexual intercourse), are widely spread and used, but they eventually have their own translation without foreign letters.

 * Sorting:When sorting words alphabetically, diacritic is not taken into account, unless it is the only difference between the two words, in which case the acute comes later. For example: kád, kar, kár, kor, kór, kos, kör are alphabetically sorted . Long consonants are treated like two short ones, and digraphs are taken into account. For example: egzotikus, egyéb, lócukor, loccsan, locsog are alphabetically sorted. Note that distinct consonants may accidentally look (and may or may not sound) like digraphs, but those are treated as separate letters when sorting.

Vowels
The pronunciation of a vs. á and e vs. é noticeably differ from each other, while the others only differ in duration.

Vowels in groups like ie, eu etc. are always pronounced independently.

Consonants
The letters j and ly are pronounced exactly the same. The latter is less common. There is no general rule by which the spelling of an unknown word containing j or ly could be deduced.

It is not unusual that a simple consonant is accidentally followed by such a digraph that it looks like a long digraph (meggyón, vasszeg). In that case the pronunciation may and may not be affected.

Stress
Primary stress is always on the first syllable of a word. Elongated vowels in non-initial syllables can also seem to be stressed to the ear of an English speaker, since length and stress correlate in English.

Hungarian language/Vocabulary

Calendar
---

Verbs (ige - igék)
grammar: Hungarian verbs

Numerals (számnév - számnevek)
In numeric notation the decimal mark is comma, thousands separators are spaces and ordinal numbers (1st, 2nd etc.) are those followed by a dot.

Pronouns (névmás - névmások)
It is important to notice that the Hungarian language do not specify gender at all.

Personal pronous + substantive verbs (személyes névmások + létigék)
The personal pronoun, if not stressed, is usually left out because it can be deduced from the substantive verb.

For the formal "you", see the section.

The "became" column is usually not listed in grammatical tables because it is a derived form. Those are the future substantive verbs in past tense, and they express an event in the past.

Possessive pronouns (birtokos névmások)
It is not necessary to include the possessive adjective (my, your etc.) because of the unique suffixes.
 * Where is my car? = Hol (van) az autóm?
 * Your car is in the garage. = Az autód a garázsban van.

T-V distinction: formal vs. informal
The second person ("te/ti" for "you") in both singular and plural is informal. The formal variant is the personal pronoun maga or ön in singular third person, and maguk or önök in plural third person. If the possessive adjective is present, the singular suffix of the owned object is used even for plural "you".

Hello.

I'm Brian McNeil, an active Wikinewsie, and a project bureaucrat over there.

My Wikinews user page can be found here, containing much more information about me, plus links to my published articles there.

My interest in Wikiversity is to 'resurrect' the Journalism school, and develop a study course to aid people in becoming effective Wikinews reporters and reviewers.

Welcome back to Wikiversity
Hello, Brian. I reckon you are the same as User:Brianmc who participated here once or twice before. Welcome back to Wikiversity. —Caprice 11:48, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * And, you'd be right. ;-) I simply could not be bothered when renaming to chase down all my accounts cross-project.
 * I must say, the Journalism school is a pig's breakfast layout-wise. Not to mention some of the atrocious grammar - some of which I've corrected. As there seems to have been some namespace hackery, the page has a load of dead-end edit links. Lemmie see if I can start resolving that. --Brian McNeil / TALK: Here ~ There 12:11, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

 * I would add, Caprice, that I'm also the curmudgeonly git who chased one of your alter-egos off Wikinews due to fundamental failure to understand the project's inner workings, and waffling in the extreme. Don't bring up the subject of ethics in journalism until you've obtained a signed-in-blood, legally notarised, promise to tell the truth from Andy Coulson. :-D --Brian McNeil / TALK: Here ~ There 12:34, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Who is Andy Coulson (and why is he not a source of reliable information)? —Caprice 12:41, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I suggest following the link to his Wikipedia biography; I was referring to ethics, not reliability. --Brian McNeil / TALK: Here ~ There 12:51, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I did follow the link, but (as you probably know), Wikipedia is not a trustworthy source of reliable information on the backstory of living people. However, it may (on occasion) be a source of amusing information, misinformation, or disinformation on juicy scandals.  As to ethics in journalism and mass media ethics, I trust you will find appropriate resources on those topics to flesh out the languishing course materials here on Journalism.  —Caprice 13:30, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * For this purpose, Wikipedia is adequate. I would certainly not advocate use of it as a source. --Brian McNeil /TALK: Here • There The Other Place 14:46, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Hey
Welcome back. If you need anything, I'm still use skype. :) Ottava Rima (talk) 16:14, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi Ottava; right now I've rarely got Skype access. What I'm hoping to do on WV is put together a structure for a short series of workshops on contributing to Wikinews. I was 'fishing' in my local Edinburgh library, and could easily - for free - book their Connect PC lab of 13 machines for every Friday afternoon in February. WM UK may assist funding printed material, and I'd hope to start this as a much more proactive recruitment campaign.
 * Right now, I'm picking out a reading list - with the intent that some is online, all available via local libraries, and I've 'recruitment fliers' up mid-January. All going well, and assuming a 33-50% dropout rate, I get a half dozen people covering news from Scotland on Wikinews.
 * Postscript: What is the story with my initial "greeter"? You might want to answer that by email. I don't want to kick life into the embers of a wiki-drama, and would value some 'sane' situational awareness. --Brian McNeil /TALK: Here • There The Other Place 18:57, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
 * It might help if you knew that Caprice = Moulton. :) We'll be in touch when I get a chance. I had something similar to a guide on writing Wiki pages, by the way. I never finished it, but it is kinda pointless for me to do so with my current status. :) Ottava Rima (talk) 19:50, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

 * The 'nom-de-plume' list dost not help; I worked that out hours ago (What sort of journalist would I be if I didn't ;-D).
 * Anyway, since we last 'crossed swords',I've been to the local Uni open day and chatted with the Prof on their journo course (Her comment: "I recognise your byline, straight into 3rd or 4th year"); been interviewed by someone from the Reuters Institute at Ox, and caused merry hell for many. --Brian McNeil /TALK: Here • There The Other Place 19:59, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Pics
Good good. :) Not the best pictures but glad you received them.  If you want me to upload them to Commons, let me know. :) --LauraHale 10:50, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

School:Journalism/Intro

Welcome to the School of Journalism in Wikiversity

Journalism is a discipline of collecting, verifying, analyzing and presenting information gathered regarding current events, including trends, issues and people. Those who practice the craft are known as journalists. Journalism may be dangerous, but is considered essential in the modern world.

News-oriented journalism is often described as 'the first draft of history.' Although journalists frequently write news articles to a deadline, publishers usually proofread and copyedit submissions prior to publication.

"'The window to the world can be covered by a newspaper.' -Stanislaw Lee, Polish poet (1962)"

Journalism on Wikinews

Overview
Wikinews is the news-based Wikimedia Foundation sister project to Wikiversity and Wikipedia.

Erik Möller, the current (2010) deputy CEO of the Foundation, is generally credited with being instrumental in getting the project off the ground. With a focus on news, the project is frequently overshadowed by current events on Wikipedia - which, naturally, attracts a far larger contributor base. There are stark differences between "The Free Encyclopedia you can Write", and "The Free News Source you can Write". Encyclopedic articles are continually developing - whereas news articles are a snapshot of what is known at a point in time.

Through negotiation with Google News, project bureaucrat Brian McNeil successfully arranged listing of the English-language Wikinews project in Google's index-cum-agregator; adopting the Wikimedia extension for Flagged Revisions, and technically implementing a formal peer review process which parallels that of traditional journalism to meet Google's requirements and address a perennial contributor gripe.

This, by-and-large, makes Wikinews a unique publisher of Citizen journalism.

Discussion questions

 * What societal benefits can citizen journalism provide?

Neurodegenerative disease

Welcome to the Wikiversity learning project about neurodegenerative disease. Initially, the emphasis of this project is on recent biomedical research into the fundamental causes of neurodegenerative disease.

Parkinson disease
Mutations in the human LRRK2 gene can cause Parkinson disease. It has been suggested that the LRRK2 protein (a protein kinase) can activate a programmed cell death signaling pathway in neurons (see The Parkinson Disease Protein LRRK2 Transduces Death Signals Via FADD and Caspase-8 in a Cellular Model of Neurodegeneration).

The fly Drosophila has been used to study the functional roles of proteins that have been associated with neurodegeneration in Parkinson disease (see The Dopaminergic System in the Aging Brain of Drosophila). Recently (published December 15, 2010), evidence has been described for a role of LRRK2 in the regulation of synapse formation (see LRRK2 Kinase Regulates Synaptic Morphology through Distinct Substrates at the Presynaptic and Postsynaptic Compartments of the Drosophila Neuromuscular Junction). Hypothetically, disregulation of LRRK2 might disrupt synapses and lead to neurodegeneration.

In 2008 Zenobia got a M. J. Fox Parkinson's disease Therapeutics Development Initiative grant. In 2010 Zenobia is working with the drug company Lundbeck to develop inhibitors of LRRK2 (see).

Sport research/Presenting your work

There are lots of ways to present your work, whilst the focus is on the traditional academic stand-up style presentations a number of ways you can present your work are discussed.

Oral Presentation
There is nothing like practice and you will often have no idea how you come across until you get feedback from others or even video record yourself and review it.

Content
The content will clearly depend on the purpose, but a typical post-research presentation will include: Keep this tight, its not a literature review, just creating context for the audience. Don't assume the audience can see the importance of the work, point it out. Add the scientific rigour and rationale for the work Give a good account of what happened, but you probably won't need the nitty gritty. Present the results of interest (generally not everything) and do so Discuss the results, how do the results fit with any hypotheses or aims, what was unexpected - how can this be explained, perhaps note some limitations of the work and place your findings within the wider context of research in the area. So how does the work contributed to the real world? Wrap it all up for everyone so it's nice and clear. Sometimes it's a good idea to keep some information back, not the important stuff, but something that you think you might get asked about... then you can impress the audience with your witty answer.
 * Background
 * Significance
 * Aims/Objectives/Hypotheses
 * Methods
 * Results
 * Discussion
 * Practical relevance
 * Conclusion
 * Questions

Style
Make sure you present yourself in an appropriate manner, so dress suitable and don't slouch. None of the There are the obvious style tips such as don't rush, speak clearly, look out at the audience, don't have too much writing on each slide, but there are other important tips too. Make sure you use images and figures effectively. Physically turn and point aspects out, use a laser pointer, the mouse or your hand. It can help to explain a concept related to your work, or the methods or of course the results. Most results are presented more effectively as figures and in this day and age of infographics, there are lots of options, don't get stuck on traditional figures if your data is better represented another way (but maybe keep the traditional in a few slides after the presentation for when questions come up). If the image does not contribute to the story you are telling though, don't use it.

How much writing do you put on a slide? Enough to give the audience something to focus on, but not enough that you don't have to talk at all.

Poster Presentation
The resource compiled by Will Hopkins on creating posters has become outdated in respect to the available printing options now common, but many of the common element and tips remain true. Printing options now include relatively cheap printing on materials such as satin on A0 but the options are seemingly endless, limited to your imagination and any requirements placed on you by teachers/conference organisers etc. All of these can be easily created using programs such as Microsoft's Powerpoint, or Apple's Keynote, not to mention much more powerful graphic's programs. Tip: It's easy to change the dimensions of the slides on these programs in settings so you don't loose quality by blowing up the presentation at print time.

Make the poster stand out and look attractive, but you still need to fit in the important stuff, just the same as for the oral presentation above. You need to put enough information on the poster that effectively transmits the scientific values of the research, but don't put too much information that the poster looks "busy" or the writing is too small to read from a few metres away. It is not likely to be easy and you need to gain a powerful control of concise language.

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 RKB. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name RKB~enwikiversity 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 23:48, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 06:18, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
