Max Mutzke

Maximilian Nepomuk Mutzke (born 21 May 1981) is a German singer, songwriter and television personality. He gained public interest in early 2004 when he won SSDSGPS, a talent contest hosted in Stefan Raab's late-night show TV total. Mutzke subsequently qualified for and won the national pre-selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2004, Germany 12 Points!, and thus represented Germany with his debut single "Can't Wait Until Tonight" that year, eventually finishing eighth in a field of 24 participants. Meanwhile, "Can't Wait Until Tonight" debuted atop the German singles chart and became a top five hit in Austria and Switzerland. His eponymous debut album, a mixture of soul and pop songs in German and English language, was released in January 2005 and also reached number one in Germany, where it was certified gold by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI).

Mutzke followed this with a series of studios albums, which were released to varying commercial success, including ...aus dem Bauch (2007), Black Forest (2008), Home Work Soul (2010), Durch Einander (2012), Max (2015) and Colors (2018). In 2014, he represented Baden-Württemberg at the Bundesvision Song Contest 2014, where he finished seventh with his song "Charlotte". In 2019, Mutzke won the debut season of the German edition of the international music game show The Masked Singer. For his work as a recording artist, Mutzke has won several high-profile prizes such as the 1LIVE Krone and the Goldene Stimmgabel. Beyond his music career, he has been featured as a coach on the reality competition television series Dein Song.

Career
Mutzke started his career in a funk band called Project Five. He gained public interest in spring 2004 when he won SSDSGPS (Stefan sucht den Super-Grand-Prix-Star), a talent contest hosted in Stefan Raab's Late-Night-Show TV total. Afterwards he released his first single "Can't Wait Until Tonight" (composed by Raab), which entered the German single charts at No. 1 on 22 March 2004 and eventually met the conditions laid down for Max to be admitted into Germany's pre-selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2004 as a wild-card entry.

In the televoting of the final show on 19 March 2004 Max defeated nine other competitors (including established artists like Scooter or Sabrina Setlur). A majority of 92.95% of all votes made him the German entry for the 49th Eurovision Song Contest in Istanbul, where he finished eighth with 93 points.

Thereupon the singer went back to school and passed his final high school examination, before teaming up with Raab once again to finish his self-titled solo album in summer 2004. The record, a mixture of funk, soul and pop in German and in English language, debuted at No. 1 on the German album charts and spawned the singles "Schwarz Auf Weiß", "Spür Dein Licht" and "Catch Me If You Can". From May to June 2005 Max then went on a club tour across Germany, Austria and Switzerland, before touring with Katie Melua.

His second album Max Mutzke ...aus dem Bauch was released on 8 June 2007. His third album "Max Mutzke ... Black Forest" was released on 28 November 2008.

In 2010, he co-wrote the song "I Care for You" for Jennifer Braun, who placed second in the German national final for the Eurovision Song Contest 2010.

In 2020, Mutzke represented The Moon in the Free European Song Contest 2020 (which served as a replacement for that year's Eurovision Song Contest due to it being cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic) under the name "Der Astronaut" with the song "Back to the Moon". It came in third place with 85 points.

He competed in the for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 with the song "Forever Strong", ultimately coming second.

Talk:Crystal Palace

deletions by Ewlyahoocom
User:Ewlyahoocom deleted several entries here. I reverted that. Was there a good reason for it? And what does ivory tower have to do with this? DirkvdM 08:25, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Crystal Palace Laughlin doesn't have any page at wikipedia (and maybe it's also been shut down?) and isn't mentioned on the Laughlin page, so at best it would be a redlink (and redlinks don't belong on disambiguation pages). There's also no mention of any "Crystal palace" on the New Brunswick, San Antonio, New Mexico, or Sydney (or 2600: The Hacker Quarterly) pages. And then there's part of a dictionary definition at the bottom. None of these should be on this disambiguation page. (Ivory tower was a partial replacement for the dictionary definition.) ...(continued below) Ewlyahoocom 07:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Why wouldn't a redlink belong on a disambiguation page? It says a certain meaning of a word exists, which is useful info for an encyclopedia. Where else would one put that info? Then again, if you don't like the red, you don't have to make it a link. It's not a link page, it's a disambiguation page. Of course, if the subject does not merit or doesn't yet have an article of its own, it would have to be dealt with elsewhere, such as in this case in the place where that crystal palace is to be found, as is done with several entries. Deleting a meaning of a term just because no separate article has been written on it yet seems a bit silly to me. Note that I am an inclusionist. :) DirkvdM 08:04, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Manual of Style (disambiguation_pages) says "[l]inks to non-existent articles ("redlinks") may be included only when an editor is confident that an encyclopedia article could be written on the subject." These have been redlinks for a long time and there's little reason to suspect any new pages are going to be added for them -- unless you, as an inclusionist, are going to take this opportunity to add new pages for them. But I don't know if something should be considered notable just because it isn't included. I, as a mergist, would prefer you, at most, include that information on their respective city pages so the information can at least be vetted by the people that know those towns best. Ewlyahoocom 09:47, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Actually, I misused the term 'inclusionist'. I was talking about preserving the information, whereas these terms are about whether this should be put in a separate article. But that doesn't apply here. It's about in which 'article' it should go. Now this is not really an article but a disambiguation page. But if people look for a certain meaning of 'crystal palace' it should be mentioned here, so they can find a link to the city where that variety of crystal palace can be found. (Now if there is no article yet on that city that complicates matters, but there is an article on Laughlin, Nevada, so I added that link.) Of course, the info should also be put in the article on the city, but that doesn't mean it should be deleted here. DirkvdM 06:05, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

 * OK, so then aren't we're in agreement: that if the term actually appeared anywhere on the target article then it can be included here -- but as long as it doesn't, then it doesn't belong here either? Won't the reader following the link to Laughlin (or Sydney, or New Brunswick, etc.) be confused when they find no mention there of Crystal Palace? And if the information is of so little note that the editors of those pages won't include it, then why should it be rotting over here all by itself? Ewlyahoocom 10:48, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

 * When I said I was an inclusionist I meant that I don't want to delete any info, provided it's true and relevant (is there a term for this? - additionist?). If something needs to be done with the info (such as include it in other pages as in this case) then one should do that or leave it for others to do, but not delete it. Of course I could just do that now myself, which would settle this, but I want to illustrate the principle. I see Wikipedia as a work in progress (and it will remain so for at least a few years). It is ok if things are not perfect at some moment because someone who notices this will correct it. Such as the confused 'visitor' you mention. That's the way Wikipedia works. No-one is a simple 'visitor'. Everyone participates. I often write things badly because I can't find the right words (I'm Dutch). Rather than decide not to include the info I concentrate on getting the info right so someone else can improve what I wrote. I just had a big fight over an article I wrote (Hiroshima (film)) where someone thought it was badly written and deleted half the article. In the end I got my way, and now the deleter has rented the film and has started editing in his own version. At least one other person has joined in, so I'm now at ease. I'll return in a while to see what they have done and then maybe change it around a bit again. That's the way Wikipedia should work. You don't have to get it right straight away. DirkvdM 08:12, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Once again I can only suggest you re-read the manual of style. In the bigger picture, why are you over here wasting time talking to me? As an inclusionist what you should be doing is voting Keep on every article deletion proposal. You can find lists at User:AllyUnion/AFD List and http://tools.wikimedia.de/~interiot/cgi-bin/queries/en_proposed_deletion -- but hurry: 100's of articles are being deleted every day! Ewlyahoocom 10:16, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Eh? Did you leave out a smiley or do I misunderstand something? I already said that I used the wrong word, this is not about inclusionism but about preserving info. DirkvdM 04:54, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

 * I don't care what you call it: there's hundreds -- maybe thousands -- of articles being deleted every day! These aren't merger proposals, and mostly this is information that exists nowhere else in Wikipedia. When these articles are deleted that information is gone with no trace that it ever existed. Don't you care about the preservation of that information, too? If you don't rescue the information at Bojo, Beta butterfly, Subbamma, Tim Shephard, Lumisoft, Wippit, Heartland Electric, Inc., Menopausal Helpline, How to become a car dealer, Raiden Fighters X, Cristy's Cake Shop, Five little speckled frogs, Walmarting, etc. then who will? (Did you even read any of the proposals or articles? Did you even look at the list?) Some of these articles will probably have been deleted before you even read this -- but's it not too late to save the others: if you act now! Ewlyahoocom 08:07, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Ah, so that's what you meant. Alas I only have one lifetime. This is just something I ran into, so I deal with this. Don't ask me to save the world. My little corner in it suffices. :) DirkvdM 07:56, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Then you're just a hypocrite ("When I said I was an inclusionist I meant that I don't want to delete any info...") wasting my time. I'm finished talking to you. Ewlyahoocom 08:26, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Eh? This discussion has taken a wrong turn somewhere. I though we were having a nice discussion and now all of a sudden you've started being, well, rude, really. Please explain what you mean. What makes me a hypocrite? DirkvdM 17:30, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
 * No reaction, so I'll re-revert and see what happens. DirkvdM 07:02, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Redirecting the Crystal Palace page to the Crystal Palace (disambiguation) page.
I've changed the Crystal Palace entry. It had been used to redirect to The Crystal Palace. The page now redirects to the Crystal Palace (disambiguation) page. As a resident of the Crystal Palace, London area, with a very good knowledge of the history of The Crystal Palace, I believe a search for Crystal Palace should lead to a Disambiguation page. Looking at the Disambiguation page it seem there is no need to put the word disambiguation in the page name. First time editing Wikipedia and not to sure how to move the Crystal Palace (disambiguation) history to the Crystal Palace page, or if this should be done. --Kelmorn 18:48, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

 * (continued from above)... That mostly leaves the other London based "Crystal Palaces" -- all of which seem to derive their name from the old building. And although Crystal Palace F.C. has the most links, the links to disambiguation page (about 80 links and 1 link), even the ones about football, mostly seem to intend to reference the old building (or the site of the old building (or the old replacement building? (or the site of the old replacement building? I admit: I do find the page at The Crystal Palace a little confusing))). But I'm not any expert on London or football, and I might even be misreading British English (or "sports" English), so if you tell me it needs to be the disambiguation page you probably know better than me. However, I will ask that you go through these remaining pages that link to this disambiguation page and disambiguate the erroneous links so they reference their proper pages. To get rid of the "(disambiguation)", since the move is obstructed, we'll have to have an Administrator do it: see Requested moves. Ewlyahoocom 07:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

 * A term should ideally link to what most people will mean by it. And the 'experts' on this are, I suppose, people who live in the area. If, to them, 'crystal palace' is an ambiguous term, it should be a disambiguation page. But that should then remain in the title. In other words, I think things are fine the way they are now. DirkvdM 08:09, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

one more ..?
Please help me out, I strongly remember a scene (fictional or real?), where "crystal palace" was the code name of an air wing command center, perhaps during WWII? Thanks in advance! a x p de Hello!  13:08, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Move this page?
Might it make sense to move The Crystal Palace to Crystal Palace and Crystal Palace to Crystal Palace (disambiguation)?

(And then the phrase The Crystal Palace at the beginning of the first mentioned article would be modified to say The Crystal Palace, with the word "The" not bold.) Michael Hardy (talk) 18:02, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

WikiProject Musicals
Hi! I'm leaving you this message because your name is listed as a participant in WikiProject Musicals (previously WikiProject Broadway) or I feel you may be interested in the project. It seems that the project has laid dormant for quite awhile, but I would like to work toward getting it up and operative. I have a few ideas that I've outlined on the talk page, and would love your input. Working together, I think we can signifigantly improve the quality of the articles relating to musicals on Wikipedia. — Music Maker  06:08, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

WP:WPMT Article Assessment
Hey! I was looking at the article assessment page and noticed that you marked two articles as being A-Class, so I wanted to check them out. I noticed, though, that neither of the articles are referenced at all! That's a big no-no, and without references they wouldn't even make it past a Good Article nomination, which would mean, even if the prose is better, that they're at B-Class right now. Just wanted to let you know before you assessed any other unreferenced articles. Thanks! — warpedmirror (talk ) 12:03, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Command (computing)

69.40.17.163 (talk) 03:21, 9 October 2015 (UTC) Re the formatting - I think it doesn't look very nice to bold and italicise and whatever to all the different parts of a command, and it suffices to just explain below the example which is the command. Don't forget that the string with which the program was invoked itself is treated as an argument. Dysprosia 00:08, 20 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Well, I'm not going to immediately agree or disagree, but the convention does seem to be used in other parts of the wikipedia, like Adverb. Hmm, people should agree to 1 convention and stick to it. Sounds like the stuff holy wars are made of. ;-) I'll just wait it out and see what people agree on. 80.126.238.189 16:40, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

 * I think the formatting on Adverb is incorrect anyway - bolding should be reserved for the title of the article and italics should be used for emphasis. In any case, adverb isn't that comparable to command (computing)... Dysprosia 21:38, 22 Mar 2004 (UTC)

We need more on how to enter into command modes or command shells in various OS. I 'm (going to work right now but) looking to explain from pathping how to use this command to a computing newbie; I want to be able to reference a command window in an explanation of Start, Run, CMD ... umm... and might come back and do that. However. The article needs to explain how to get to a point at which you can use a CLI; that would be my main point. --Tagishsimon

 * That should probably be under command line interface, not here. Dysprosia 09:21, 18 May 2004 (UTC)

Congrats on the launch of the probe. I was wondering if you might know a friend of mine who also works on the Gravety Probe B project, however he's an employee of Stanford, and I don't really know how many are on the project. Gentgeen 09:24, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Charles F. Adams-class destroyer

The Charles F. Adams class is a ship class of 29 guided-missile destroyers (DDG) built between 1958 and 1967. Twenty-three were built for the United States Navy, three for the Royal Australian Navy, and three for the West German Bundesmarine. The design of these ships (known as project SCB 155) was based on that of Forrest Sherman-class destroyers, but the Charles F. Adams class were the first class designed to serve as guided-missile destroyers. 19 ft of length was added to the center of the design of the Forrest Sherman class to carry the ASROC launcher. The Charles F. Adams-class were the last steam turbine-powered destroyers built for the U.S. Navy. Starting with the succeeding Spruance-class, all U.S. Navy destroyers have been powered by gas turbines. Some of the U.S. Charles F. Adams class served during the blockade of Cuba in 1962 and during the Vietnam War; those of the Royal Australian Navy served during the Vietnam War and Gulf War.

New threat update program and decommissioning
Although designed with cutting-edge technology for the 1950s, by the mid-1970s it was clear to the Navy that the Charles F. Adams-class destroyers were not prepared to deal with modern air attacks and guided missiles. To reduce this vulnerability, the U.S. Navy began the New Threat Upgrade (NTU) program. This consisted of a number of sensor, weapons and communications upgrades that were intended to extend the service lives of the ships. Under the NTU, these destroyers received improved electronic warfare capability through the installation of the AN/SLQ-32(V)2 EW Suite.

The upgraded combat system would include the MK86 Gun Fire Control System with AN/SPQ-9 radar, the Hughes AN/SPS-52C 3D radar, the AN/SPG-51C (Digital) Fire Control Radars, and the Naval Tactical Data System (NTDS). These ships were also planned to have the ability to launch several Harpoon anti-ship missiles, which were to be installed in their MK-11 or MK-13 Tartar missile launcher.

During the 1980s, the Reagan Administration chose to accelerate production of the Ticonderoga-class cruiser guided-missile cruisers and build the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer guided-missile destroyers, both classes with the Aegis Combat System that was considered more effective than NTU-upgraded ships, to gradually replace all existing destroyer and cruiser classes (especially the expensive nuclear-powered cruisers). The result of this was that only three of Charles F. Adams-class destroyers, USS Tattnall (DDG-19), USS Goldsborough (DDG-20), and USS Benjamin Stoddert (DDG-22) received the full upgrade. Other ships, of the class, such as Charles F. Adams, received only partial upgrades, which included the AN/SLQ-32 and Harpoon Missile upgrades, that were intended to extend their service lives until the Arleigh Burke class could reach operational capability.

The United States Navy decommissioned its last Charles F. Adams destroyer, Goldsborough, on 29 April 1993. The Australian and German navies decommissioned their last ships of this class by 2003. Four ships of this class were transferred to the Hellenic Navy in 1992, but those have also been decommissioned.

USS Charles F. Adams (DDG-2) was originally planned to open as a museum ship sometime in 2018, but those plans were put on hold and the ship was sent to be scrapped in 2020. The GERMAN DESTROYER Mölders was made into a museum ship, but all of the other destroyers in the class have been sunk as targets, sunk for diving wrecks or sold for scrap.

Hellenic Navy
Four destroyers were transferred to the Hellenic Navy;

 * GREEK DESTROYER Kimon (formerly USS Semmes)
 * GREEK DESTROYER Nearchos (formerly USS Waddell)
 * GREEK DESTROYER Formion (formerly USS Joseph Strauss)
 * GREEK DESTROYER Themistoklis (formerly USS Berkeley)

Lütjens class

The Lütjens-class destroyer was a modification of the Charles F. Adams class for the Bundesmarine (the Navy of West Germany). It differed from the Charles F. Adams class in the layout of the crew accommodations, the location of the bow sonar, a second large aerial mast and different funnels.
 * GERMAN DESTROYER Lütjens (scrapped)
 * GERMAN DESTROYER Mölders (Museum ship)
 * GERMAN DESTROYER Rommel (scrapped)

Perth class
The Royal Australian Navy had three Charles F. Adams-class units constructed to their own specifications (these ships were designated the Perth-class destroyer). Although broadly similar to the US Navy's vessels, the Australian ships were fitted with the Ikara system instead of the ASROC that was fitted to the American units. The three ships were:
 * HMAS Perth (D 38) (sunk as a dive wreck)
 * HMAS Hobart (D 39) (sunk as a dive wreck)
 * HMAS Brisbane (D 41) (sunk as a dive wreck)

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 Cyndi. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Cyndi~enwiki 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. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

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.

Disambiguation link notification for May 19
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Webconverger, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Git (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 23:32, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

Article Kiosk software
I'm okay with the edit you did (except for the accusation of the link being spammy). Those 8 years seem a long time ago.

I'd suggest to review that article again (especially all referals and see also links) and make it really spam free. I just took a look at one of the software which is linked as being free. Third link on the official website of that kiosk software says "pricing". Any reason why you didn't remove that link? BroncoPfefferminz (talk) 13:47, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

Maybe you should read http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.html Free software != Free of cost necessarily Hendry (talk) 16:33, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

First: If you list a product as "free" a normal user will always see that "free" as being free of cost. Second: Could you please explain why this product is listed at all? Does the linked article contribute any additional information to understand what "kiosk software" stands for? Does it solely represent "kiosk software"? Why are others missing or why have other kiosk software products been removed? After we have agreed upon the fact that this software is not free of cost - and thus commercial interests cannot be denied - to accuse the other links as being spammy seems to have double standards. BroncoPfefferminz (talk) 20:54, 14 December 2013 (UTC)

1) I agree there may be some confusion. Nonetheless the basic product of Webconverger is indeed free of cost, thousand of people browse the Web this way without payment using this Opensource "free software". http://webconverger.com/screenshots/#webconverger-is-usable-unconfigured 2) It's listed since it has a Wikipedia page of its own. Solely? No, there is 2 other kiosk products listed in See Also. Your PDF is suspect. It's not a Wikipedia page. It's not even a Web page. It's 8 years old. What are your motives? Hendry (talk) 01:04, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

Image:Isu townengineering.JPG
Hi. When you uploaded Image:Isu townengineering.JPG, you did not specify complete source and copyright information. Another user subsequently tagged it with GFDL-presumed and, for some time, it has existed on Wikipedia under the assumption that you created the image and you agreed to license it under the GFDL. This assumption, however well-meaning, is not legally sufficient and the tag is being phased out. Images using it are being deleted.

This image has been tagged for deletion and will be deleted in one week if adequate copyright information is not provided.

If you, personally, are the author of this content, meaning that you took the photograph yourself or you created the chart yourself (and it does not use any clipart that you did not create), please retag the image with a free image copyright tag that correctly describes your licensing intentions, usually GFDL-self or PD-self. Please also make sure if you have not already done so that you write a good description of what the image depicts, when you took the photo, and other important details. This will allow Wikipedia to continue using the image.

If you did not create the image or if it is derived from the copyrighted works of others, please keep in mind that most images on the internet are copyrighted and are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others and does not use images unless we know that they have been freely licensed.

Kabardian language

Kabardian, also known as East Circassian, is a Northwest Caucasian language, that is considered to be the east dialect of Adyghe language. Circassians reject west and east dialects to be different languages and refer to them both as "Circassian".

It is spoken mainly in parts of the North Caucasus republics of Kabardino-Balkaria and Karachay-Cherkessia (Eastern Circassia), and in Turkey, Jordan and Syria (the extensive post-war diaspora). It has 47 or 48 consonant phonemes, of which 22 or 23 are fricatives, depending upon whether one counts as phonemic, but it has only 3 phonemic vowels. It is one of very few languages to possess a clear phonemic distinction between ejective affricates and ejective fricatives.

Some linguists argue that Kabardian is only one dialect of an overarching Adyghe or Circassian language, which consists of all of the dialects of Adyghe and Kabardian together, and the Kabardians themselves most often refer to their language using the Circassian term Adighabze ("Adyghe language"). Several linguists, including Georges Dumézil, have used the terms "eastern Circassian" (Kabardian) and "western Circassian" (Adyghe) to avoid that confusion, but both "Circassian" and "Kabardian" may still be found in linguistic literature. There are several key phonetic and lexical differences that create a reasonably well-defined separation between the eastern and the western Circassian dialects, but the degree to which the two are mutually intelligible has not yet been determined. The matter is also complicated somewhat by the existence of Besleney, which is usually considered a dialect of Kabardian but also shares many features with certain dialects of Adyghe.

Kabardian is written in a form of Cyrillic and serves as the literary language for Circassians in both Kabardino-Balkaria (where it is usually called the "Kabardian language") and Karachay-Cherkessia (where it is called the "Cherkess language").

Like all other Northwest Caucasian languages, Kabardian is ergative and has an extremely complex verbal system.

Since 2004, the Turkish broadcasting corporation TRT has maintained a half-an-hour programme a week in the Terek dialect of Kabardian.

East Circassian dialects/sub-dialects

 * East Circassian
 * Kabardian
 * West Kabardian
 * Kuban
 * Kuban-Zelenchuk (Cherkess)
 * Central Kabardian
 * Baksan (basis for the literary language)
 * Malka
 * Eastern Kabardian
 * Terek
 * Mozdok
 * North Kabardian
 * Mulka
 * Zabardiqa (1925 until 1991 Soviet Zaparika)
 * Baslaney dialect (Бэслъыныйбзэ)

Phonology
The phoneme written Л л is pronounced as a voiced alveolar lateral fricative mostly by the Circassians of Kabarda and Cherkessia, but many Kabardians pronounce it as an alveolar lateral approximant  in diaspora. The series of labialized alveolar sibilant affricates and fricatives that exist in Adyghe became labiodental consonants  in Kabardian, for example the Kabardian words мафӏэ  "fire", зэвы  "narrow", фыз  "wife" and вакъэ  "shoe" are pronounced as машӏо, зэжъу , шъуз  and цуакъэ  in Adyghe. Kabardian has a labialized voiceless velar fricative which correspond to Adyghe, for example the Adyghe word "тфы" ( "five" is тху  in Kabardian. In the Beslenei dialect, there exists an alveolar lateral ejective affricate  which corresponds to  in literary Kabardian. The Turkish Kabardians (Uzunyayla) and Besleneys have a palatalized voiced velar stop  and a palatalized velar ejective  which corresponds to  and  in literary Kabardian.

Consonants

 * 1) In some Kabardian dialects (e.g. Baslaney dialect, Uzunyayla dialect), there is a palatalized voiced velar stop  and a palatalized velar ejective  that were merged with  and  in most Kabardian dialects. For example, the Baslaney words "гьанэ"  "shirt" and "кӏьапсэ"   "rope" are pronounced in other Kabardian dialects as "джанэ"  and кӏапсэ.
 * 2) Consonants that exist only in borrowed words.

The glottalization of the ejective stops (but not fricatives) can be quite weak, and has been reported to often be creaky voice, that is, to have laryngealized voicing. Something similar seems to have happened historically in the Veinakh languages.

Vowels
Kabardian has a vertical vowel system. Although many surface vowels appear, they can be analyzed as consisting of at most the following three phonemic vowels:, and.

The following allophones of the short vowels, appear:

According to Kuipers,
 * These symbols must be understood as each covering a wide range of sub-variants. For example, i stands for a sound close to cardinal  in 'ji' "eight", for a sound close to English  in "kit" in the word x'i "sea", etc.  In fact, the short vowels, which are found only after consonants, have different variants after  practically every series defined as to point of articulation and presence or absence of labialization or palatalization, and the number of variants is multiplied by the influence of the consonant (or zero) that follows.

Most of the long vowels appear as automatic variants of a sequence of short vowel and glide, when it occurs in a single syllable:

This leaves only the vowel. Kuipers claims that this can be analyzed as underlying when word-initial, and underlying  elsewhere, based on the following facts:
 * occurs only in the plural suffix [ha], which does not occur word-initially.
 * is the only word-initial vowel; analyzing it as makes the language underlyingly universally consonant-initial.
 * Certain complications involving stress and morphophonemic alternations are dramatically simplified by these assumptions.

Halle finds Kuipers' analysis "exemplary". Gordon and Applebaum note this analysis, but also note that some authors disagree, and as a result prefer to maintain a phoneme.

In a later section of his monograph, Kuipers also attempts to analyze the two vowels phonemes and  out of existence. Halle, however, shows that this analysis is flawed, as it requires the introduction of multiple new phonemes to carry the information formerly encoded by the two vowel phonemes.

The vowel appears in some loan words; it is often pronounced.

The diphthong is pronounced  in some dialects. may be realised as, as  and  as. This monophthongisation does not occur in all dialects.

The vowels can have the semi-vowel  in front of it.

Orthography
The official alphabet used for writing Kabardian, is Cyrillic alphabet, including additional letters, totalling 59 letters. Digraphs, trigraphs, and one tetragraph, are counted as independent letters on their own. The Cyrillic alphabet in its current form has been the official alphabet since 1938. Kabardian alphabet, while having minor differences reflecting dialectical variations, is very similar to orthography of the Adyghe language, the other prominent Circassian language.

Kabardian is also unofficially written and taught in Latin, in some diaspora communities, especially in Turkey where government-backing of a Latin-based script has been a cause for controversy and opposition among Kabardians who still overwhelmingly favor Cyrillic.

History

Prior to the 19th century, Kabardian did not have a literary tradition yet, and it did not have a native orthography. At the time, Ottoman Turkish was used as the literary language by Circassians. Starting in the 1820s, efforts at compiling and standardizing Arabic-based scripts were undertaken by various Kabardian literaturists, and by the early 1920s, an officially-adopted Arabic-based script was in widespread educational and literary use. However, in 1924, Kabardian Arabic alphabet was discarded and replaced with Latin.. A second version of Latin script was adopted in 1930. This lasted for another 6 years, and in 1936, Latin alphabet was discarded in favour of Cyrillic. Kabardian Cyrillic alphabet underwent an iteration of modification in 1938, and the 1938 version has been in popular and official use eversince.

First ever notable attempt at compiling an orthography for Kabardian was conducted by famous Kabardian poet, Sh. Nogma, in 1825. His alphabet consisted of 42 letters, including 15 letters introduced by him, some of which had unusual forms, diverging from the conventional rasm (base of letters which are then used for addition of dots and diacritics). His alphabet thus didn't take hold.

In 1830, in collaboration with Russian philologist and orientalist, Gratsilevsky, Nogma developed a Cyrillic-based script for Kabardian.

Over the decades, the popularity in use of Arabic-derived script increased. In 1881, the poet Bekmurza Pachev compiled a standardized Arabic script for Kabardian consisting of 39 letters. He published various literature and wrote poetry in this version of the alphabet. The Arabic alphabet was gaining universal acceptance and increasing usage among Kabardian Circassians.

In 1908, Nuri Tsagov compiled another iteration of the Arabic alphabet, better suited for all consonant and vowel phonemes of Kabardian. This version of the alphabet was widely accepted, with many authors utilizing it to publish books and literature, including a primer. The alphabet gained official status in education and later also inspired the standardization of Arabic-based orthography for Adyghe language by Akhmetov Bekukh.

In line with the general linguistic policy of the Soviet Union at the time, the existing Arabic script was replaced with a newly developed Kabardian Latin alphabet in 1924. Khuranov is credited for first compiling the first version of Latin alphabet in May 1923. This version closely resembled the Latin alphabet adopted for Adyghe language in 1927. This alphabet consisted of many newly created letters, some even borrowed from Cyrillic. Another interesting feature of this iteration of Adyghe Latin Alphabet was that there was no distinction between lower case and upper case letters. Each letter only had one single case. The alphabet consisted of а b w d g ꜧ е ӡ z ž ⱬ i j k ⱪ q qh l  lh m n o p ph r s š ş t th v f fh x х̌ ɦ c ç ch y h u è ù â ỳ.

Kabardian Latin alphabet underwent another update in 1925. In this version, many of the newly created letters were removed in favour of introduction of accents and diacritics over base Latin letters. In this version, upper-case/lower-case distinction was reintroduced. The alphabet consisted of the following letters: A a, B b, V v, D d, E e, G g, Gu gu, Z z, Ž ž, Z̧ z̧, Ӡ ӡ, Ꜧ ꜧ, Ꜧu ꜧu, I i, J j, K k, Ku ku, Ⱪ ⱪ, Ⱪu ⱪu, Q q, Qu qu, Qh qh, Qhu qhu, L l,, Lh lh, M m, N n, O o, P p, Ph ph, R r, S s, Š š, Ş ş, T t, Th th, U u, F f, Fh fh, X x, Xu xu, X̌ x̌, X̌u x̌u, ɦ, C c, Ç ç, Ch ch, Y y, H h, ', Ù ù, Je je, Jo jo, Ju ju, Ja ja.

In 1930, Kabardian Latin alphabet was replaced by a new version derived from the nationally-adopted new standard, Yañalif.

In 1936, Kabardian was one of the languages in the Soviet Union to switch to Cyrillic alphabet. Tuta Borukaev, Kabardian public figure and linguist is credited with the compilation of the first official Cyrillic alphabet for Kabardian. They consisted of the following: А а, ’А ’а, Б б, В в, Г г, Гъ гъ, Д д, Е е, Ж ж, Жь жь, З з, И и, Й й, К к, К’ к’, Л л, Ль ль, Л’ л’, М м, Н н, О о, П п, П’ п’, Р р, С с, Т т, Т’ т’, У у, ’У ’у, Ф ф, Ф’ ф’, Х х, Хь хь, Хъ хъ, Ц ц, Ц’ ц’, Ч ч, Ш ш, Щ щ, Щ’ щ’, Ъ ъ, Ы ы, Ь ь, Э э, Ю ю, Я я. The extensive reliance on use of apostrophes made the alphabet inconvenient to learn and use. Thus two year later, in 1938, N.F. Yakovlev led a commission that reformed the Cyrillic alphabet to its present form.

Among the diasporic Circassian communities, the situation with respect to orthography has been more complex. Some groups have advocated for use of Latin or Arabic in line with the language of the larger society in which Circassian communities reside. On the other hand, since the adoption of Cyrillic in Circassia others have advocated for continued use of Cyrillic as it helps maintain contact with the Circassian homeland and the literary tradition there. This divergence goes back to the early 20th century, when in 1909, Muhammad Pchegatlukov developed a new and independent Arabic-based writing system in the Ottoman Empire. His proposed script didn't manage to displace the main orthography of the time in the Circassian homeland, i.e. Nuri Tsagov's script.

More recently, there has been developments in Turkey. In the 2000s, the Konya-based Adyghe Language Teaching Association (ADDER) has compiled a Latin alphabet for Kabardian. While many in the Circassian community have opposed the move, the endorsement of the project by Turkey's ruling party, AK Party, has resulted in the boosting of ADDER script and its usage in development of new educational material. The alphabet consists of the following letters:A a, B b, C c, Ç ç, Ć ć, D d, E e, É é, F f, Ḟ ḟ, G g, Ǵ ǵ, Ğ ğ, H h, Ḣ ḣ, I ı, İ i, J j, Ĵ ĵ, K k, Ḱ ḱ, Ǩ ǩ, L l, Ĺ ĺ, M m, N n, O o, Ö ö, P p, Ṕ ṕ, Q q, R r, S s, Ś ś, Š š, Ş ş, Ṩ ṩ, T t, Ṫ ṫ, U u, Ü ü, W w, V v, X x, Y y, Z z, Ź ź, '

Kabardian Cyrillic Alphabet
Table below lists the 59-letter Kabardian Cyrillic Alphabet. Dighraphs, trigraphs, and a tetragraph are counted as independent letters.

ADDER Latin Alphabet
Since the genocide and forced expulsion of Circassians in their homeland in the second half of the 19th century, most Circassians have been living as diaspora communities in countries such as Turkey, Syria, Jordan, and elsewhere. In fact more Circassians live in the diaspora than within Circassia. As far as orthographic conventions among diasporic communities is concerned, a majority of diaspora Circasians have tried to follow the conventions and literary practices in place among people living in the Circassian homeland. This is to help diaspora communities maintain ties to their homeland. Therefore, before 1924, the Arabic-based scripts developed for Western and Eastern (Kabardian) Circassian, also took roots among the diaspora communities. This is also why for the past decades up till today, the majority of Circassians, be they in Turkey or Jordan or elsewhere, have adopted the Cyrillic alphabet and insist on educating the new generation in Cyrillic alphabet.

Nevertheless, the issue of orthography hasn't been without controversy among diaspora communities. In the 2000s in Turkey, the Konya-based Adyghe Language Teaching Association (ADDER) has compiled a Latin alphabet for Kabardian. While many in the Circassian community have opposed the move, the endorsement of the project by Turkey's ruling party, AK Party, has resulted in the boosting of ADDER script. Since then, government-endorsed education material and primers have been prepared in ADDER Latin script.

Table below lists the 49-letter Kabardian Latin (ADDER) Alphabet and their respective Cyrillic equivalents. Highlighted letters aren't considered independent letters, but are digraphs and are used to correspond to specific Kabardian phonemes.

Kabardian Arabic Alphabet
Below table shows Kabardian Arabic alphabet, as it was the official script of Kabardian Circassian between 1908 and 1924, compiled by Nuri Tsagov.

Grammar
Kabardian, like all Northwest Caucasian languages, has a basic agent–object–verb typology, and is characterized by ergative–absolutive alignment.

Señor Wences

Wenceslao Moreno Centeno (April 17, 1896 – April 20, 1999), known professionally as Señor Wences, was a Spanish ventriloquist and comedian. His popularity grew with his frequent television appearances on CBS's The Ed Sullivan Show during the 1950s and 1960s. Later, he became popular with another generation of fans on The Muppet Show.

Early life
Wenceslao Moreno Centeno was born in Peñaranda de Bracamonte, Salamanca. His mother was Josefa Centeno Lavera and his father was Antonio Moreno Ros. His mother was born in the province of Salamanca. His family on both sides were Roman Catholic.

At age 15 he learned how to juggle. He then joined a circus act of some friends.

Throughout his career, he maintained a residence in Salamanca, vacationing there every summer. He became one of the benefactors of the Convent of Saint Teresa of Avila (1515–1582) in Alba de Tormes, Salamanca, at which he attended Mass every Sunday when there. The street that leads to the convent received the name of Señor Wences while he was alive. Several other places in Salamanca and in Castille have streets named for him.

Career
Performing under the stage name "Señor Wences", Moreno was known for his speed, skill, and grace as a ventriloquist. His stable of characters included "Johnny", a childlike face drawn on his hand, placed atop an otherwise headless doll, with whom the ventriloquist conversed while switching voices between Johnny's falsetto and his own voice with great speed. He opened his act by drawing Johnny's face on his hand, on stage. He would first place his thumb next to, and in front of, his bent first finger; the first finger would be the upper lip, and the thumb the lower lip. He used lipstick to draw the lips onto the respective fingers and then drew eyes onto the upper part of the first finger, finishing the effect with a tiny long-haired wig on top of his hand. Flexing the thumb would move the "lips". Moreno performed a scene using Johnny in the 1947 musical Mother Wore Tights. The inspiration for Johnny came from his school days when the teacher punished him for imitating classmates and answering "present" when they were absent. His punishment was to clean the inkwells and he smeared some of the ink on his hand, then clenched his fist to create the face.

Another popular Señor Wences character was the gruff-voiced "Pedro", a disembodied head in a box. Señor Wences was forced suddenly to invent the character when his regular, full-sized dummy was destroyed during a 1936 train accident en route to Chicago. Pedro would either "speak" from within the closed box, or speak with moving lips – simply answering "s'awright" ("it's all right") – when the performer opened the box's front panel with his free hand to ask questions of Pedro. A large part of the entertainer's comedy lay in the well-timed, high-speed exchange of dialogue between him and his creations, because of the difference in their voice pitches.

Part of his act involved throwing his voice while his mouth was otherwise engaged (i.e., smoking or drinking), and rapidly switching between multiple voices. Another favorite prop was a telephone, with the ventriloquist playing both sides of a telephone conversation. For the "caller" he simulated a "filtered" voice, as it would sound over a telephone wire to a bystander. This voice always began a conversation with a shouted "Moreno?" – using the true surname of Señor Wences, who would respond "No, Moreno is not here."

He usually built up to a big finish that combined ventriloquism with juggling and plate-spinning. As he performed his routines, Pedro and Johnny would heckle him.

Although he was an international favorite for decades, his main career was made in the United States, where he arrived in 1934 or 1935. In addition to live performances at nightclubs, he appeared regularly on television variety shows, including frequent appearances on CBS's The Ed Sullivan Show, where he was a guest 48 times, on Broadway, in Las Vegas casino theaters, and in feature films.

Much later in his career he was introduced to a new generation of fans on The Muppet Show. His last television appearance was on The Very Best of the Ed Sullivan Show #2, a retrospective in which the nonagenarian talked about "Suliban" and performed a brief spot of ventriloquism.

He pronounced his professional name using traditional Castilian, which in English sounds like "WEN-thess". After Sullivan would announce him, mispronouncing his name as "Señor Wen-sess", the ventriloquist would correct Sullivan's pronunciation subtly, by introducing himself to the audience: "Hello, I am Señor Wen-thess".

In the early 1980s, a Tri-state Honda dealer's commercial featured Señor Wences with Johnny. Pedro's "s'awright" was a voice from the elaborate glovebox. Señor Wences would point out all of the features of the automobile to which Johnny would reply, "Ees Standard", "Stan-dard!", and "Nice!" This may have been the final commercial appearance of Señor Wences. It was shot in Puerto Rico because its star declined to travel to New York. Tony Belmont, at the time the president of Alan Freed Productions, was his agent and manager throughout the 1980s, and he secured Señor Wences a spot performing at Ruth Eckerd Hall, among many others. In 1986, he made a guest appearance on The Garry Shandling Show.

In 2009 Señor Wences was featured in the ventriloquist comedy documentary I'm No Dummy, directed by Bryan W. Simon.

One of his performances was shown on BBC Television in March 2022 in an edition of the Dusty Springfield Show from 1966.

Catchphrases
One of the Señor Wences trademark bits of shtick (referenced several times below) involved his dialogue with a deep voice emanating from inside a box. At the opening of the dialogue he would shout, "Hello in the box!" At the conclusion of the dialogue, he would open the lid of the box and ask "S'ok?" ("It's ok?") and the box voice would answer "S'ariiight!" immediately after which Señor Wences would shut the lid of the box. In 1959, the phrase was adapted for use in the closing credits for the Hanna-Barbera cartoon show Quick Draw McGraw where sidekick Baba Looey, trapped inside a chest, falls off a stagecoach driven by Quick-Draw whose shout "Hey Baba Looey" is met by the response "S'awright".

Another routine involved explaining to his hand puppet Johnny that something was easy (or difficult) to do, to which the puppet always would reply the contrary, such as, "Easy for you, for me ees very deefeecult!" in his Spanish accent. These catchphrases were incorporated into a record Señor Wences released in 1959 by Joy Records (New York), featuring the songs "S-All Right? S-All Right" and "Deefeecult For You – Easy For Me".

Death and legacy
Moreno received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the US National Comedy Hall of Fame in 1996. The ceremony was immortalized via video through the National Comedy Hall of Fame.

Despite his retirement by age 100, the famous Señor Wences puppets, Johnny and Pedro, "continued working". Ventriloquists Jay Johnson, Rickie Layne, and Michele LaFong performed at Moreno's 100th birthday celebration at the New York Friars' Club (where he was made a lifetime member ), and he was so impressed with LaFong that he befriended her. Not only did he give his puppets to her, but he also taught her how to perform his classic routines. Las Vegas headliner Michele LaFong continued to perform Señor Wences routines after the performer's death, using some of the original characters. Another famous ventriloquist who was present at Señor Wences' birthday party, and who met him there for the first time, was Paul Winchell.

Moreno died on April 20, 1999, three days after his 103rd birthday. He had been residing in Midtown Manhattan on 54th Street, just around the corner from the Ed Sullivan Theater. That section of 54th Street has been named Señor Wences Way. His portrait can be seen at the Players Club in New York.
