James Barbour

James Barbour (June 10, 1775 – June 7, 1842) was an American politician, planter, and lawyer. He served as a delegate from Orange County, Virginia, in the Virginia General Assembly and as speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates. He was the 18th Governor of Virginia and the first Governor to reside in the current Virginia Governor's Mansion. After the War of 1812, Barbour became a U.S. Senator (from 1814 to 1825) and the United States Secretary of War (1825–1828).

Early and family life
James Barbour was born in what became Barboursville in Orange County on June 10, 1775. Barbour was the son of Thomas Barbour (who held a seat in the Virginia House of Burgesses in 1769) and his wife, the former Mary Pendleton Thomas. His grandfather (also James Barbour, 1707–1775) had patented lands in Spotsylvania County in 1731 and 1733, and his uncle of the same name James Barbour also served in the Virginia House of Burgesses (1761–65, representing Spotsylvania County). Both sides of his family were among the First Families of Virginia and early settlers in Orange County and westward. By the time James was born, the Barbour family had owned over 2,000 acres (8 km2) and enslaved several people. However, the family suffered financial reverses during the American Revolutionary War and its aftermath. Nonetheless, James finished his formal education with private tutors and an academy run by James Waddel at Gordonsville, Virginia. His brother, Philip P. Barbour, would later become Speaker of the United States House of Representatives and Associate Justice of the Supreme Court.

On October 29, 1792, Barbour married Lucy Johnson, the daughter of Benjamin Johnson, who had represented Orange County in the General Assembly in 1790. They had three daughters (one of whom, Frances, died as an infant in 1802); the second, Frances Cornelia, married William Collins of Baltimore. They also had four sons, including James Barbour and Benjamin Johnson Barbour (1821–1894, later rector of the University of Virginia).

Early years
Barbour served as deputy sheriff of Orange County beginning in 1792. In 1794, he was admitted to the Virginia Bar. With wedding gifts from his father, as well as by building his legal practice and running his plantation, Barbour was able to build up personal wealth. His friend and neighbor at Monticello plantation, Thomas Jefferson, helped design the mansion in which Barbour lived most of his adult life, called Barboursville. By 1798, Barbour owned several enslaved people and would expand that plantation over the years, as would his somewhat neighbor on the other side, President James Madison at Montpelier plantation.

House of Delegates
Orange County voters elected Barbour to the Virginia House of Delegates in 1796, and he became that body's youngest member. Reelected several times to that part-time position, he served until 1804 and again from 1807 to 1812. Barbour became known for eloquence, and served on various committees, rising to chairman of several, including the Committee of Privileges and Elections and the Finance Committee. Peers elected him as Speaker of the House of Delegates for many terms.

Barbour held strong Republican beliefs, similar to his neighbors Jefferson and Madison. He vigorously opposed the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798 and used his rhetorical eloquence to support the Virginia Resolutions. Barbour believed the Acts and their supporters threatened the United States, stating, "to make an expected attack from abroad a pretext for attacking the principles of liberty at home has drawn aside the curtain and clearly illuminated for all who are willing to see." Barbour refused to support legislation increasing Executive powers, especially unchecked powers.

In the House of Delegates, Barbour took pride in writing the bill establishing the Literary Fund of Virginia, passed on February 2, 1810. This provided some funding for public education in each county in the Commonwealth. Barbour later requested that the only inscription on his tombstone be a reference to this Act, affirming his firm belief that society would progress only through education. However, he also believed intellectual abilities were connected with gender, race, and land ownership.

Governor of Virginia
In 1811, Barbour declared his candidacy for the governorship but lost to the incumbent, George William Smith. However, Smith died in office on December 26, 1811, during a fire at the Richmond Theatre. On January 3, the Legislature convened and elected Barbour governor. At the time, British raiders were impressing American sailors (including Virginians, especially near Hampton Roads and Norfolk). Barbour favored war with Britain, which he viewed as the only way to end British interference with U.S. sovereignty. Barbour's father had trained the Orange militia, so the new Governor knew their inadequacies. Governor Barbour sought funding for Virginia's militia on February 11, 1812, and personally toured the tidewater region most at risk.

On June 18, 1812, Congress declared war, so the War of 1812 began, and Barbour became "the war governor." Perhaps because of his wartime preparations (or willingness to risk his funds), Barbour faced no opposition and was reelected Governor in November 1812. However, by 1813, British ships had been raiding coastal Virginia. Some delegates opposed Barbour's support of President James Madison and national unity but nonetheless reelected him. In 1814, Barbour finally convinced the Legislature to approve raising 10,000 troops and placing that militia under Federal control. Washington D.C. was sacked before the Treaty of Ghent ended the war. Barbour also authorized exploration of the upper James River and received funding to improve Virginia roads. He was also the first Governor to inhabit the Virginia Governor's Mansion, designed by Alexander Parris. Virginians sent resolutions thanking the Governor for his strong and apt leadership during the war.

U.S. Senator
On December 1, 1814, Virginia's legislators elected Barbour (then 40) to succeed Richard Brent in the United States Senate. Although Barbour had previously opposed a national bank, President James Madison supported such, so Barbour became the Senate sponsor of a bill written by Secretary of the Treasury Alexander James Dallas, which authorized the National Bank with $50,000,000 in capital. It passed (although prior similar legislation failed).

Senator Barbour aligned with Senators John C. Calhoun and Henry Clay on internal improvements and slavery. Although his brother Philip P. Barbour served contemporaneously in the U.S. House, their stances and votes often differed. Senator Barbour proposed a committee on roads and canals, supported the Bonus Bill (authorizing spending the bonus from the national bank on internal improvements), and proposed a constitutional amendment to grant Congress the authority to appropriate money for internal improvements. Senator Barbour also opposed reducing the national army, supported a bill abolishing imprisonment for debts, and introduced the Navigation Act of 1818. That Act closed U.S. ports to any ships from British ports closed to U.S. ships. Barbour hoped this would encourage the British to open their ports. However, that effort failed. In 1823 a compromise led to the Elsewhere Act, which allowed for reciprocal trade.

Peers elected Barbour President pro tempore of the Senate in 1819. The 16th Congress, over which Barbour presided, adopted the Missouri Compromise on slavery. Barbour proposed combining the bill admitting Missouri (after he spoke in favor of allowing that state's voters to elect to support slavery) with the bill admitting Maine—both in an attempt to deny the Northern Senators an opportunity to gain four anti-slavery Senators. His speech may have foreshadowed the Southern position in the American Civil War after his death:

"Sir, no portion of the Union has been more loyal than the South. Is this your reward for our loyalty? Sir, there is a point where resistance becomes a virtue and submission a crime. Our people are as brave as they are loyal. They can endure anything but insult. But the moment you pass that Rubicon, they will redeem their much abused character and throw back upon you your insolence and your aggression."

As Senator, Barbour sponsored a resolution giving an honorary sword to Colonel Richard Mentor Johnson of Kentucky for his efforts in the Battle of the Thames in 1813. Johnson and Barbour would become quick friends following Barbour's efforts. Later, Johnson promoted Barbour's appointment as Secretary of War under President John Quincy Adams. However, that association with Adams, whom the Senate narrowly elected over Andrew Jackson, would later devastate both Senator Clay's (and Barbour's) political careers.

Virginia legislators elected the Jacksonian Democrat John Randolph of Roanoke to succeed Senator Barbour in December 1825. Like Barbour, he would defend slavery, although a member of the American Colonization Society like Henry Clay. Unlike Barbour, he would later emancipate the people he enslaved upon his death. Randolph opposed the national bank and the Missouri Compromise of 1820 that Barbour had helped Clay pass.

Secretary of War
Following Adams' inauguration on March 4, 1825, fellow Senators confirmed Barbour as Secretary of War and Henry Clay as Secretary of State. The War Department's primary functions were managing the army and overseeing Indian affairs.

Barbour soon came into conflict with Governor George Troup of Georgia, who wanted to evict Creek Indians from 5 million acres (20,000 km2) of land. Northern Creeks had supported Britain in the War of 1812, and Georgia planters had engaged in the Red Stick War to acquire Southern Creek lands. However, those Southern Creeks assimilated and supported the Americans during the war. Governor Troup's partially-Creek cousin William McIntosh had signed the Treaty of Indian Springs (1825), purporting to relinquish tribal lands in exchange for $200,000 for himself and installments totaling $200,000 for five other signatories. The U.S. Senate approved it by one vote on March 7, but tribal members protested vehemently, sentenced McIntosh to death, and killed him.

President Adams renegotiated the Treaty of Washington (1826) on slightly more favorable terms to the native peoples. Both treaties provided for removal west of the Mississippi (as President Jackson would later do the Cherokee Indians on the Trail of Tears). Governor Troup was upset that the second treaty allowed some Creek to remain in Georgia and began a survey to prepare to sell those remaining lands and threatened to call out the militia. At that point, the federal government ceased protecting the Indians. All Creeks' lands were seized, and all Creeks removed from Georgia by 1827.

Diplomat
By 1826, President Adams was deeply unpopular compared to his opponent in 1824 (and presumptive in 1828), Andrew Jackson, as was Secretary of State Clay. Although some advocated Barbour as a vice-presidential candidate in the upcoming 1828 elections, Barbour sought an appointment as Minister to Great Britain. Critics claimed Barbour sought a "harbor in the storm" from the upcoming election.

Nonetheless, European intellectuals accepted the new ambassador. During the 1820s, Barbour was a member of the Columbian Institute for the Promotion of Arts and Sciences, as were other prominent military and medical professionals. On July 1, 1828, Barbour received an honorary LL.D. from the University of Oxford.

Final years
After President Adams' electoral defeat in 1828, Barbour returned to Virginia, announcing his candidacy for the General Assembly. However, Barbour's association with Adams and nationalistic policies made him unfavorable to the Virginian Republicans. Although his opponent was illiterate, the election was extremely close. And although Barbour was declared the winner, the election was contested. Before the legal decision, Barbour retired on February 16, 1831, citing the hostility in the Assembly against him.

Barbour continued to remain active in national politics. In December 1831, he attended the first national convention of the National Republican Party in Baltimore and was elected its presiding officer. The convention nominated Henry Clay for president in 1832 and John Sergeant for vice president. Barbour also became chairman of the 1839 Whig Party convention in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, which nominated Virginia-born William Henry Harrison for President (who won the election of 1840 to become the 9th President of the United States).

Death and legacy
After retiring from the Assembly, Barbour appeared and gave speeches to support political friends. One observer declared: "Gov. Barbour presented an imposing appearance, with a striking face, long, shaggy eyebrows, and head covered with silvery flowing locks; with a majestic and sonorous voice, he filled one's conception of a Roman Senator in the last days of the Republic." However, Barbour's health declined, and he spent his final months at Barboursville. He died on June 7, 1842. Senator James Barbour was buried in the family cemetery on the estate.

The grave and ruin of his mansion, Barboursville, remain within the modern Barboursville Vineyards. The ruin is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as well as included within the Madison-Barbour Rural Historic District. However, the tombstone is a modern replacement ordered in 1940.

In addition to Barboursville, Virginia, Barboursville, West Virginia is named in his honor, as are Barbour County, West Virginia and Barbour County, Alabama. However, Barbourville, Kentucky is probably named after his uncle James Barbour (burgess)(1734–1804). The Library of Virginia has his executive papers.

The Barbour family remained politically powerful in that area of Virginia for the rest of the century, despite no longer enslaving people after the American Civil War. His first cousin John S. Barbour (1790–1855) also served in the Virginia General Assembly and chaired the Democratic National Convention of 1852. J.S. Barbour's sons James Barbour and his elder brother John S. Barbour, Jr. served in the Virginia House of Delegates before the American Civil War, and James Barbour also served in the 1850 Virginia Constitutional Convention and the 1861 Secession Convention and in the Confederate States Army while his brother continued to run the Orange and Alexandria Railroad. After the war, John S. Barbour Jr. reorganized the state's Conservative Party as the Democratic Party and served in both the U.S. House and U.S. Senate.

There was no debate begun by the tagger which would indicate his POV concerns. I read the article and found no issues and therefore removed the tag.

Mi Princesa Roja
In the fall of 2015 a production of a new musical was mounted in Madrid. Titled Mi Princesa Roja it tells the story of the doomed Spanish Phalangist José Primo Antonio de Rivera. The story of the demise of the Spanish royal family and the rise of the Republic, anarchism and fascism is a difficult political subject for a musical and the author has added a little emotional warmth by introducing Elizabeth Bibesco, wife of the Romanian ambassador, as a love interest. In thirty years of exploring the life of Elizabeth Bibesco I have never found a contemporary reference to her as "The Red Princess". However, it is certain that Princess Bibesco had romantic feelings for Jose Primo, though it is uncertain if they were ever consummated. And it is certain that Jose Primo harboured romantic feelings for Elizabeth, though it is equally uncertain whether they were consummated. After leaving Madrid in 1931 Elizabeth kept a close eye on the developments in Spain and in Germany. She wrote more than one anti-Hitler, anti fascist letter to the editor of the Times during the next few years. She also personally attempted, unsuccessfully, to broker a pardon for Jose Primo after his incarceration by Azana and the Republic. In 1940 her last book carried the dedication to Jose Primo that became the kernel of truth behind "Mi Princesa Roja". Elizabeth Bibesco was a complicated character who used the word "love" overly freely. In her life she saw herself as a romantic heroine; her dreams and wishes seldom led anywhere but to disappointment. Her relationship with Jose Primo de Rivera was probably one such romantic escapade - more dream than reality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.239.179.235 (talk) 00:34, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

Rising Stars of Manga

Rising Stars of Manga (RSoM) was an English-language comic anthology published by TOKYOPOP from 2002 to 2008, and a contest held by the same company. It was originally semi-annual, but switched to annual beginning with the 6th volume.

Each volume represented the results of a contest, in which aspiring comic book artists from all over the U.S. each submit a 15-20 page one-shot comic. Tokyopop staff select the best entry in each genre category (Comedy, Action, Mystery, Romance, Drama, Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Horror) to publish in the anthology. Each winner received a $1000 prize. In addition, a People's Choice winner was decided from around 20 entries by votes from online viewers or users of the Toykopop website. The People's Choice winner was awarded $500 and published in the anthology as well (although a genre winner could also be selected as a People's Choice winner). Before the seventh RSoM competition (in 2007), the staff of TOKYOPOP picked one grand-prize winner, a Second and a Third prize winner, and eight runners-up with no distinctions in genre.

The youngest entrant to become a finalist was 15 and the youngest to be published in the anthology was also 15, and the oldest had been 39. Finalists were offered a chance to submit a proposal to create a series of books, usually lasting three volumes. Other finalists have parlayed the exposure provided by the contest into manga/comics jobs at other companies.

A few of the winners had the beginning chapters of their comics serialized by syndication in the Sunday comics of various American newspapers (Peach Fuzz, Van Von Hunter and Mail Order Ninja), through the Universal Press Syndicate.

History
Tokyopop launched its first Rising Stars of Manga contest on August 15, 2002 and ended it on December 16, 2002, with more than five hundred American artists submitting their 15–25 page, English-language stories. Priscilla Hamby and Clint Bickham's "Devil Candy" won the grand prize while "Van Von Hunter: Circlet of Necromancy" by Michael Schwark and Ron R. Kaulfersch took first place. The second ran from June 1, to September 1, 2003; editors selected Lindsay Cibos's "Peach Fuzz"—later adapted into a three-volume manga of the same name —as the grand-prize winner and Nicholas Liaw's "Unmasked" as the first-place winner. The third ran from January 1, to March 15, 2004. "Atomic King Daidogan" by Nathan Maurer was chosen as the grand-prize winner and later expanded into a series. The fourth started on June 1, 2004, and concluded on August 16, 2004.

Tokyopop also created a Rising Stars of Manga contest for the United Kingdom; the first began on May 1, 2005.

Ford Futura

The Ford Futura is a large car that was made by Ford Australia between 1962 and 2008. Although the last Futura was part of the BF Series Ford Falcon range it was badged and marketed as the 'Ford Futura' rather than the 'Ford Falcon Futura'. Ford Australia first used the Futura name on the Ford Falcon Futura which was introduced in 1962 as the new luxury sedan in the Falcon XL Series range. The name was dropped from the XR Falcon range of 1966 and reintroduced in the XW range of 1969. It was discontinued again for the XC Series of 1976 and reappeared in the ED range of 1993. The name was used continuously by Ford Australia from that time until the replacement of the BF Series Ford Futura by the FG Series Ford G6 in 2008.

US market
Ford Futura was scheduled to denote a new sedan entry for the North American market in 2005 (the 2006 model year), the car it was destined for was renamed Ford Fusion while still under development, due to a trademark dispute. Futura proved to be owned by the Pep Boys auto parts chain, due to a tire line marketed by them under that brand. Ford's claim failed because the company had not used the name for more than three years.

The company did use the name sporadically for several decades. In the 1950s, the 1955 Lincoln Futura show car was produced; it was modified in 1966, used as the basis for the Batmobile in the Batman television series. In the early 1960s, the Ford Falcon had a specialty coupe submodel called Futura, and the same was true of the Ford Fairmont in the late 1970s.

Dutch market
In the 2000s, Ford in the Netherlands sold Futura special editions of many of its mainstream models.

Talk:Deal, Kent

Untitled
just thought i would leave a quick note to say that ive added in a like to the Walmer page, as well as the bit about the old navy yard, mainly to make a link to the Time ball page which i created, and know is one of Deals landmarks. Sorry if the stff i added has spelling mistakes in it! Tom.

Not sure how controversial this might be...
...but is Walmer much regarded as a separate village, or as part of Deal? I lived in Deal from 1975 to 1994, and personally never had much call to think of Walmer as a distinct village. A walk along the Strand surely confirms this... or are Walmer residents keen on retaining their nominally individual status? With Kingsdown, of course, there is a degree of separation.

I ask out of genuine interest. ormondroyd

 * I currently live in Walmer, and I can't honestly answer that question. It is separate in terms of parish boundaries, and it has its own councillors, but it is part of the Deal postal district.  Hmmm.  I guess I'm going to have to visit the local library again... Stewart Adcock 20:58, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

 * It's an interesting one. How much do local authority boundaries define the geography of a town or region (e.g. I live in Berkshire which no longer exists as a single government entity, causing much debate on Usenet about whether the county itself "exists". It's definitely still there though... I can see it out of the window). For me it's about the separation.  If I walk from Deal Castle to the Lord Clyde I have crossed into Walmer without any "typical" town boundary, which makes me question Walmer's status as an individual entity in modern times. Further inland, the boundary is even more blurred, I'd have said (from the top of Mill Hill towards Dover Road, for instance).

 * I suppose the same question could be asked of Sholden and Mongeham, although these are arguably small satellite entities on the fringe of the town rather than a large conurbation joined to Deal along a east to west boundary running the length of the town. Ormondroyd 22:30, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Travelling northward, toward the town centre, the "Welcome to Deal" signpost is near Deal castle, not at the southern outskirt of Walmer. That doesn't really answer the question though. Stewart Adcock 08:17, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

 * I always remember when I was a kid that at the top of the hill on the road from Dover (i.e. just as the houses start) there was the large "DEAL" sign with the Cinque Ports logo, then about 30 yards later there was a smaller "Walmer" sign. Have they moved the former sign north to the castle now? (I only get back once or twice a year and haven't noticed).  There's only one way to decide this matter properly and that's to have an angry edit war and flag the article as POV (joke) Ormondroyd 08:29, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

 * another point is how does History define a place, I can remember when doing a project at school about the towns history to be surpised at walmer (where i currently live)was most definatly a seperate village, therefore I always wight letters like Walmer, Deal, Kent > but if I was short of space, i just omit the walmer as i know that it all goes to deal sorting office no matter what, ans it isnt going to make any diffrence. for genral peposes, Walmer dont realy exist as a seperate enity. Vilage is probably the wrong word, somthingh akin to "district" is more appopiate. a bit like what you get in big cites. you dont get "Walmer Village Councle" like you might do with a seperate village, (not sure on that), but you do get "walmer parish councel", and "walmer in bloome compatisions" personaly, I think novbody considers it a seprate place anymore, as people as close as Dover will tell you... tooto 23:32, 24 July 2005 (UTC) not shure that helps much :-)

 * This is definitely of interest! I am currently trying to put right the mistaken idea that all named places in Kent are automatically villages if they are not towns/cities. Sholden, although having parish council status (has it?) should be included, IMO, in a part of this article. I have therefore included it with Walmer as part of the town, as can be seen Peter Shearan (talk) 10:02, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Perhaps a section discussing where the boundaries are should be added? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.216.226.50 (talk) 01:03, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Mining industry
Anyone else agree that a section on the town's century or so of coal mining would be relevant? or should there alternatively be a Kent mining industry article which references Deal (if there isn't one already). I can have an attempt if people think it's worth doing. Ormondroyd 09:58, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

 * It would definitely be a worthwhile addition, but I know almost nothing about the topic! Stewart Adcock 19:44, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

 * There is a Kent Coal Field page already, with a link to this one Wavy (talk) 10:12, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

Official website
I removed the link to the "official town website" because although it exists, it is virtually empty. There is certainly no useful information that would qualify it for inclusion under WP:EL rules. Trying to find anything at all on that website just ends in frustration.--Shantavira|feed me 18:48, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

"...(or Deale or Deal Sands)"
I've never heard of either of these, and there's no citation. Where has it come from? Ormondroyd (talk) 10:58, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I have removed it pending a reliable reference, it was added an IP user in January. MilborneOne (talk) 11:24, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

References section broken
someone seems to have broken the references section on the main article, the items 4 & 5 are effected. not sure how to fix. 2.216.226.50 (talk) 01:07, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

Illegality of crest
Someone might want to deal with this.... Nick Cooper (talk) 23:14, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

 * That link is to a trivial news story from two years ago. The town council "dealt with it" a few weeks later.--Shantavira|feed me 13:21, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

Deal Cinemas
as a child I lived in Deal from1947-1956 and there were 3 cinemas then, not two as claimed in the entry - The Odeon, The Royal and The Regent 125.209.161.2 (talk) 06:04, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

Weather box
User:Martinevans123 User:PaleCloudedWhite I do not think that a settlement should have a weather box referenced to a weather station outside the area concerned, rather weather boxes should only be used if the weather station is inside the area covered by the article. Hence countries and regions could justifiably have one, but not villages nor many towns. The one in the article should be removed, perhaps leaving a link to a page which justifiably includes one. SovalValtos (talk) 12:09, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Fully agree. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:16, 24 June 2015 (UTC)

Use of Photos in the Notable people section
A disagreement arises between myself (ArbieP) and SovalValtos about whether to show four photographs alongside the Notable People section for Deal, Kent. These are the photos in question:

The case in favour is that they add a little colour and life to the words of the article and the mixture of photos makes for an attractive contrast. This is particularly so, for example, between James Arbuthnot and Norman Wisdom.

The case against is that the photographs are better on their linked pages. Using images gives the individuals undue weight, as none of them had a major impact on Deal. They do more to illustrate the individuals than they do for Deal.

Contributors with an interest in Deal, Kent are invited to have their say here

ArbieP (talk) 17:44, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

 * I am not sure the images add anything to what is an article on Deal, some of the "notable people" have little to do with Deal so adding a picture doesnt really represent an image of Deal that adds to the article. I would vote for not including them. MilborneOne (talk) 20:52, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

 * I feel sorry for Deal if it's so boring it needs a 1965 black and white photo of Norman Wisdom (taken in Schiphol) to add a little colour and life. But I agree with MilborneOne. It's obvious that Deal is spoilt for choice with famous people, and I don't see how one could fairly choose between them. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:00, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

 * Somewhat relevant but I had an issue with Arbie adding these sorts of images on a lot of town articles back in what August or so, Ofcourse I wasn't gonna go on a one man crusade and start reverting however I did have an issue, Arbie seeing as myself and indeed others have an issue it might be better for you to get consensus for your additions instead of simply adding them and getting into a thousand and one disputes with people. – Davey 2010 Merry Xmas / Happy New Year 21:26, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

 * The case in favour given above is aesthetic, which does not comply with the guidance given in MOS:PERTINENCE, which says images should not be primarily decorative. Incidentally even with adding images for just four of the over 20 Notable People listed, they extend outside the section in desktop view. No objection to the images themselves they are just proposed for the wrong article.SovalValtos (talk) 17:34, 30 December 2017 (UTC)

Off topic Walmer content
Deal and Walmer are adjoining but separate towns, Civil Parishes or Communities. The current consensus is that there are separate articles on Deal and Walmer rather than mingling material into one article. User:Lloydmayer wishes to add material relevant to the Walmer article to this one on Deal with the justification that 'Walmer is part of Deal'. Should content in the future be mingled into one article or continue to be kept in two separate articles?SovalValtos (talk) 10:45, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

 * For the avoidance of doubt, the Royal Marines rifle ranges at Walmer were part of the former RM barracks at Deal. Lloydmayer (talk) 11:00, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Lloydmayer please could you give a source for a rifle range at Walmer. I can only find references to a range along the coast near Oldstairs bay south of Kingsdown,. not one in Walmer The barracks themselves seem to have been in Walmer not Deal..SovalValtos (talk) 11:36, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

 * From Moonraker: “They scrambled down a steep cliff-path to the beach and turned to the right beside the deserted small-arms range of the Royal Marine Garrison at Deal.” During my time, the RM barracks were always known as RM Deal; RM Depot, Deal; or RMSoM, Deal - though they may have historically been referred to as RM Walmer. Now all converted into flats, apartments, and new-build homes. :-( Lloydmayer (talk) 12:42, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
 * We now have enough with the Moonraker quote to edit the mention of the Fleming novel without giving undue detail or mentioning off topic settlements such as Kingsdown or Walmer.SovalValtos (talk) 21:05, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

SR Combat Organization

The Combat Organization (Боевая Организация, or the Fighting Organization) was the terrorist branch within the Socialist Revolutionary Party of Russia. It was a terror sub-group that was given autonomy under that Party. In his memoirs, group member Boris Savinkov called the group the "Terrorist Brigade." (This phrasing was followed in his own memoirs by Whittaker Chambers, an American spy for the Soviets. )

History
In 1902, Grigory Gershuni founded and led the group. In July 1904 they murdered the Russian Minister of the Interior, Vyacheslav von Plehve.

In 1904, Gershuni was arrested, and Yevno Azef succeeded him, with Boris Savinkov as his deputy. Azef, a double-agent in the employ of the Tsarist secret police Okhrana, changed the Terrorist Brigade's mode of attack from firearms to dynamite. In its middle period (1903–1906) the brigade's members included more than a dozen women and more than four dozen men—some nobles, honorary citizens, priests, and merchants. Most were 20–30 years old; 19 Jews, and two Poles. In 1908, Savinkov succeeded Azef, but the group disbanded shortly thereafter.

Ministry (government department)

Ministry or department (also less commonly used secretariat, office, or directorate) are designations used by first-level executive bodies in the machinery of governments that manage a specific sector of public administration.

These types of organizations are usually led by a politician who is a member of a cabinet—a body of high-ranking government officials—who may use a title such as minister, secretary, or commissioner, and are typically staffed with members of a non-political civil service, who manage its operations; they may also oversee other government agencies and organizations as part of a political portfolio. Governments may have differing numbers and types of ministries and departments. In some countries, these terms may be used with specific meanings: for example, an office may be a subdivision of a department or ministry.

Canada
The federal Government of Canada uses the term department to refer to its first-level executive bodies.

Subdivisions
In Canada, first-level subdivisions are known as provinces and territories. Five of the ten provincial governments use the term ministry to describe their departments (Ontario, Quebec, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, and Alberta) but the other five, as well as the three territorial governments, use the term department. Despite the difference in nomenclature, both the provincial and federal governments use the term "minister" to describe the head of a ministry or department. The specific task assigned to a minister is referred to as his or her "portfolio".

United Kingdom
In the United Kingdom, all government organisations that consist of civil servants, and which may or may not be headed by a government minister or secretary of state, are considered to be departments. Until 2018, the term "ministry" had been retained only for the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Justice. On 8 January 2018, Prime Minister Theresa May announced that the Department of Communities and Local Government would be renamed to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government to emphasise her government's prioritising of housing policy. In September 2021, Prime Minister Boris Johnson reverted the ministry to a department, renaming it the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities and giving it the responsibility of overseeing his government's levelling up policy.

Other countries
Some countries, such as Switzerland, the Philippines and the United States, do not use or no longer use the term "ministry" and instead call their main government bodies "departments". However, in other countries such as Luxembourg a department is a subdivision of a ministry, usually led by a government member called a secretary of state who is subordinate to the minister.

In Australia at the federal level, and also at the state level, the term ministry refers to the ministerial office held by a member of Cabinet, the executive, which is then responsible for one or more departments, the top division of the public service. The collection of departments responsible to a ministerial office and hence the minister, is referred to as the minister's "portfolio".

New Zealand's state agencies include many ministries and a smaller number of departments. Increasingly, state agencies are styled neither as ministries nor as departments. All New Zealand agencies are under the direction of one or more ministers or associate ministers, whether they are styled ministries or not. Each body also has an apolitical chief executive, and in ministries and departments these chief executives often have the title of Secretary.

In Indonesia, the term ministry (Kementerian) is used. From the New Order to 2009, the office was known as department (Departemen).

In Malaysia, the term ministry is used for all but one government cabinet portfolio. The Prime Minister Department is the only portfolio that uses department instead. All government portfolios in the Peninsular Malaysia states use committee, while Sabah and Sarawak state governments following the federal government's style in naming certain portfolios.

In Hong Kong, the term bureau is used, and departments are subordinate to the bureaus.

In Mexico, ministries are referred to as secretariats.

In 1999, the ministries of the federal government of Belgium became known as federal public service, the exception being the Ministry of Defense which kept the original designation.

In the Republic of China, ministry is used.

In the People's Republic of China, ministry is used.

In Portugal, the organization adopted by the XXI (2015–2019) and the XXII (2019-2024) governments ceased to expressly foresee the existence of ministries, with the portfolios of the ministers being instead referred as "government areas" and having, in theory, a more flexible organization. Although the term "ministry" has been eliminated from the Government communication and from most of the new published laws, it continues to be used in some legislation, especially those referring to some government areas that existed for a long time as ministries (Finance, National Defense, Foreign Affairs, Health, etc.). The term "ministry" also continues to be used as the vernacular to refer to a government area.

In Nigeria each ministry is led by a minister who is not a member of the Nigerian legislature (due to the separation of powers) and is responsible to the popularly elected president.

In Lebanon, there are 21 ministries. Each ministry is led by a minister, and the prime minister is the 23rd minister of the Lebanese government.

In the European Union, the equivalent organisation to a national government department is termed directorate-general with the civil servant in charge called a director-general (in the European Commission, the political head of the department is one of the European Commissioners).

The government departments of the Soviet Union were termed people's commissariats between 1917 and 1946. Ministry was used, thereafter.

In popular culture
The term ministry has also been widely used in fiction, notably in satires and parodies.

Books and films
Portrayals of various fictional government ministries include:
 * The Ministry of Magic is the governing body of the wizarding world of the United Kingdom and Ireland in the Harry Potter series (not a department of the British Government responsible for magical affairs). It is led by a Minister for Magic.
 * In the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four there are four Ministries in charge of Oceania: the Ministry of Truth (education, culture and propaganda), the Ministry of Love (the interior, security and policing), the Ministry of Plenty (economic affairs) and the Ministry of Peace (war and foreign affairs).
 * The Ministry of Information Retrieval features in the film Brazil.
 * The Ministry of Social Coherence appears in an Estonian comedy series Riigimehed (Statesmen).

Television

 * In Yes Minister the Department of Administrative Affairs (DAA) is responsible for the administration of other government departments and the British Civil Service. This ministry had a number of other responsibilities, including National Health Service administration, local government, organising state visits by foreign leaders, enforcing European regulations, the arts and telecommunications.
 * The Thick of It is set at the fictional Department of Social Affairs, later called the Department of Social Affairs and Citizenship, or "DoSAC" for short.
 * The Ministry of Silly Walks is the subject of a sketch in Monty Python's Flying Circus.
 * The Spanish television show El ministerio del tiempo follows the exploits of an investigative team in the fictional Ministry of Time, which deals with incidents caused by time travel that can cause changes to the present day
