Baise moi
We do not appear to have any representatives of the "seventh art" on our featured articles list yet. I think this one is close to being worthy. Suggestions on what this and other articles about films need are very welcome. Self-nom. Pcb21| Pete 15:00, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Object. Has next to nothing on the book - how similar the plots are, whether the graphic nature of the film is similar to the style of the book. Warofdreams 16:06, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * Object. Needs much wikification, and while I'd ordinarily do it myself, I'm not equipped to do this. At least, I'd like links to pages explaining the various countries' movie rating schemes. Also, I'd like a little more discussion of the thematic meaning/significance of the movie. [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 16:29, 2004 Jul 26 (UTC)

Feminist
I think this is a good article, presenting the movie's controversy well. I was slightly concerned, however, by this sentence: "Critics have pointed to these scenes to suggest the film is not a purely feminist endeavour." This film was about rage, equally commited by men against women, women against men, men against men, and women against women. Not only is it not a purely feminist work, I'm not sure that it could be described as even being a marginally feminist work. Calling this film feminist tends to play into the hands of those who want to give feminism a bad name. Any thoughts? AdmN 14:56, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

 * You CAN'T give feminism a bad name -- feminism is just another word for "female chauvenism", unless you use it to mislabel egalitarianism.
 * Either way the movie is not exactly feminist. Tho I wouldn't say connecting the two would make feminism look bad, I agree the two don't exactly have anything to do with each other. Considering the indiscriminate violence, the movie is pretty egalitarian never the less. -- Ashmodai 14:00, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

Even so, that sentence needs to be removed/replaced. Why is it in the plot synopsis? - Calehay —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.210.186.171 (talk) 02:46, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Baise-Moi - Translation
My high school French tells me that the translation of this title is "Kiss Me". Am I missing something? The Movie Gazette says that the movie has been released in English internationally as both "Kiss Me" and "Fuck Me". In the US it was released as "Rape Me". Mentions of this title in Wikipedia say it literally means "Fuck Me". Is this an idiomatic translation or an error? --CloudSurfer 07:10, 19 Sep 2004 (UTC)

 * It's the difference between literal translation and slang. All three of those are correct, interpreted in certain ways. Mike H 07:16, Sep 19, 2004 (UTC)

 * In that case wouldn't it be better to change:
 * Baise-moi (literally translated as "Fuck Me", though "Rape Me" better typifies the intended meaning)
 * to
 * Baise-moi (literally translated as "Kiss Me" is used in the slang meanings of "Fuck Me" or, more accurately in this case, "Rape Me")
 * --CloudSurfer 07:23, 19 Sep 2004 (UTC)

 * I know "baiser" is to kiss, but I always used "bise" for kiss, which technically isn't correct since it isn't a real kiss per se. But yeah, I think what you want to change it to would be accurate. Mike H 07:26, Sep 19, 2004 (UTC)

 * Not being a Francophone I will leave this for a while to see what others who are more expert think. If this change is made here then a similar change is required in the entry for fuck. --CloudSurfer 07:31, 19 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Don't trust high school language teachers; they're sometimes wrong, in that they give wrong (by use, need, and context) forms for some words. (cf. one's perdance rather than perte for loss, or other crappy translations of phrases that aren't as hard as they claim). Baiser is a noun for kiss, but a verb for to fuck. Embrasser is to kiss. Also, baisser is to drop or lower (to go down?). lysdexia 07:50, 1 Nov 2004 (UTC)

 * The verb "baiser" means either "kiss" or "fuck", depending on the context. For example, "donne-moi un baiser" means "give me a kiss". "baisez-moi la main" litterally means "kiss my hand". However, "baise-moi" means "fuck me" and would hardly be understood as "give me a kiss". General rule: if it is not followed by a noun ("the hand", "the foot", or wherever someone might be kissed), it means "fuck". (I am French.) DaBa 21:45, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

 * French must be a killer language then. How do you say "Kiss me" or "Fuck my ass" (Don't look at me like that, I'm just quoting porn here), then? -- Ashmodai 14:03, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

Hell! "Embrasse moi" et "Sodomise moi"... If i were your teacher, i'd roughly accept "Fais moi le cul" ^^

The noun for "kiss" in French is "bisou." This is according to the Larousse dictionary. "Baiser" is the verb. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.156.43.8 (talk) 15:18, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

 * I disagree with the Larousse then (is that an English-French Larousse ?). Bisou is what you use with or in front of children or in a child like manner ( "give me a little kiss" ), otherwise it's (un) baiser (noun). The verb for either being embrasser or more commonly for a bisou, simply faire un bisou. Baiser the verb, in the 21st century, means to fuck, and trying to use it with another meaning, even a correct one, will lead to funny looks. If you're talking like an aristocrat then you could occasionally use it to ask a woman if you can kiss her hand, but frankly this is not a word you're likely to use even in that context, you just grab the hand and do it !

 * As for the title, "Fuck me" is accurate. When reading that title you can't know the movie will feature rape. Aesma (talk) 01:09, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

Litigation before the Conseil d'État
The initial wording of the article held the point of view that the CE acted under political pressure. In reality, the law, as it was written, specifies X classification for movies containing pornography and/or extreme violence. The movie had both realistic sex and very realistic violence, and thus there were valid legal grounds for such classification. Thus, I think it is unwarranted judgment on the part of the article to claim that this ruling was made "under political pressure"... In addition, it seemed to claim that the CE is subject to political pressure, which is itself a highly debatable issue. I changed the article accordingly.

No matter what you think of the movie, the discussion about its rating etc...why does the english article feature a link to a french porn site ?

PORNOGRAPHIC ?????
I've just watched this (uncut version) and its clearly not a pornographic film, as described in the first sentance. There is more violence than sex. Suggest replacing pornographic with sexually graphic. The description \pornographic\ implies that the primary purpose of the film is the viewer's erotic gratification ... and this is clearly not the artistic focus here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.30.55.233 (talk) 23:03, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

And the discussion lower in the article outlines the controversy about the descriptor 'pornographic'... so it really shouldn't appear in the first sentance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.30.55.233 (talk) 23:08, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

Nelson River DC Transmission System

The Nelson River DC Transmission System, also known as the Manitoba Bipole, is an electric power transmission system of three high voltage, direct current lines in Manitoba, Canada, operated by Manitoba Hydro as part of the Nelson River Hydroelectric Project. It is now recorded on the list of IEEE Milestones in electrical engineering. Several records have been broken by successive phases of the project, including the largest (and last) mercury-arc valves, the highest DC transmission voltage and the first use of water-cooled thyristor valves in HVDC.

The system transfers electric power generated by several hydroelectric power stations along the Nelson River in Northern Manitoba across the wilderness to the populated areas in the south.

It includes two rectifier stations, Radisson Converter Station near Gillam at 56.36139°N, -94.61333°W and Henday Converter Station near Sundance at 56.50389°N, -94.14°W, one inverter station, Dorsey Converter Station at Rosser located 26 km north west of Winnipeg at 49.99278°N, -97.42833°W), and two sets of high-voltage direct current transmission lines. Each HVDC transmission line has two parallel overhead conductors to carry the positive and negative feeds.

A third line, Bipole 3, was completed in 2018, running from the new Keewatinoow Converter Station along the west side of Lake Manitoba to the new Riel Converter station on the east side of Winnipeg.

There are no intermediate switching stations or taps. All three bipolar systems have extensive ground return electrodes to allow use in monopolar mode.

History
Construction in 1966 of the 1,272 MW Kettle Rapids generating station required a long transmission line to connect it to load centers in the southern part of Manitoba. The Government of Canada agreed to finance installation of an HVDC line to be repaid by Manitoba Hydro when the load growth permitted the utility to assume the debt due to the line. Delivery of direct current electric power began on June 17, 1972.

One unit of the Kettle generating station was completed before the direct current converters were completed. For the winter of 1970 the bipole lines were energized with alternating current, contributing a useful amount of energy to the Manitoba system; a shunt reactor was installed to prevent excess voltage rise due to the Ferranti effect.

At that time, Bipole I used the world's highest operating voltage to deliver the largest amount of power from a remote site to a city, and employed the largest mercury arc valves ever developed for such an application. The line required construction of over 3,900 guyed towers and 96 self-supporting towers across varied terrain. Permafrost in some areas led to foundation settling of up to 3 feet (1 m).

The loan by the Government of Canada was discharged when Manitoba Hydro bought the line and outstanding debt in 1992. In 1997 a tornado damaged 19 towers of the DC lines. During repairs, some major customers were advised to curtail load, but imports over the 500 kV lines from adjacent utilities in the United States prevented serious interruption of power.

A third such line, called Bipole 3 was proposed, to run along the west side of Manitoba. On October 26, 2009, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, along with engineering and environmental experts, released an analysis which they claimed refuted each of the government's claims for why the line must be built down the west side of the province. The line was constructed on the western route and completed in 2018.

System components
The transmission system is currently composed of three bipole transmission lines with their converter stations and ground return electrodes to enable monopole operation.

Bipole 1
Bipole 1 runs 895 km from Radisson to Dorsey. It was originally rated to run at a maximum potential difference of ±450 kilovolts and a maximum power of 1620 megawatts. This results in an electric current of 1800 Amperes.

Bipole 1 consists of six, 6-pulse converter groups at each end (three in series per pole), each originally rated at 150 kV DC, 1800 A. Each converter group can be bridged at the DC side with a vacuum switch. Subsequent upgrades have increased the current rating to 2000 A and the voltage rating of most equipment to 166 kV per bridge (i.e., 500 kV total), although as of January 2013 Manitoba Hydro still report that the line is operated at +463 kV/−450 kV.

When it was built between March 1971 and October 1977, mercury-arc valves were used to rectify the alternating current. These valves, supplied by English Electric, each had six anode columns in parallel and were the most powerful mercury arc valves ever built. Each of them had a weight of 10200 kg, a length of 4.57 m, a width of 2.44 m and a height of 3.96 m. Between 1992 and 1993 the mercury arc valves of Pole 1 were replaced with solid state thyristors from GEC Alsthom, increasing the maximum power and voltage of the line to its current levels. The mercury arc valves of Pole 2 were replaced later by Siemens. By the end of 2004 the last of the mercury arc valves in Pole 2 had been replaced by thyristors.

At both Radisson and Dorsey, the thyristors are situated in the same hall where the mercury arc valves originally stood. At both locations, the hall has a height of 18.29 m, a width of 22.86 m and a length of 44.2 m.

Bipole 2
The Bipole 2 transmission line runs 937 km from Henday to Dorsey. Bipole 2 can transfer a maximum power of 1800 MW at a potential of ±500 kV. Bipole 2 consists of four 12-pulse converter groups at each end (two in series per pole) and was put into service in two stages. After the first stage in 1978 the maximum power was 900 MW at 250 kV, which increased to its present figure when it was completed in 1985.

Bipole 2 crosses Nelson River at 56.459811 N 94.143273 W. There is a backup crossing of Nelson River at 56.441383 N 94.176114 W. It is not possible to directly switch the line to the backup crossing.

Unlike Bipole 1, Bipole 2 has always been equipped with thyristors. The thyristors, supplied by the German HVDC consortium (Siemens, AEG and Brown Boveri) used water cooling for the first time in an HVDC project. Until that time, the relatively few HVDC schemes using thyristors had used either air cooling or, as on the Cahora Bassa project supplied by the same consortium, oil-cooling. The thyristors were arranged in floor-mounted vertical stacks of four each (quadrivalves). Each set contained 96 thyristor levels in series, with two in parallel. These were arranged in 16 thyristor modules connected in series with 8 reactor modules.

Bipole 3
In 1996 an extreme wind effect damaged both Bipoles 1 and 2 and threatened to black out Winnipeg. Power was maintained by importing from Minnesota while the two existing Bipoles were repaired. To avoid a repetition of this event, and further improve the reliability of the power supply, Manitoba Hydro examined routes further to the west for their Bipole 3 line. The plans also include an additional converter station and feeder lines around the city. Bipole 3 construction started in 2012. The line was completed and entered service in July 2018.

The main elements of the Bipole III system are:
 * Keewatinoow Converter Station, located on the Nelson River near the site of the proposed Conawapa Generating Station at 56.65694°N, -93.85389°W
 * A 1,324 km bipolar transmission line operating at nominally +/-500 kV, running to the West of Lake Manitoba
 * Riel Converter Station, on the east side of the Winnipeg Floodway, in the Rural Municipality of Springfield at 49.86639°N, -96.94°W
 * Additional 230 kV AC lines for the northern collector system.

The line uses guyed steel towers in northern stretches of the line and self-supporting steel lattice towers in the southern part. On average there will be about two structures per kilometer. Each tower carries a bundled conductor for each pole. Each pole conductor is made of three sub-conductors equivalent to 1,590 MCM ACSR. Conductors are supported by toughened glass or porcelain strain insulators with a maximum clearance to ground level of 34 meters, with a minimum of 13.2 meters at mid span and maximum conductor sag. The top of the towers carries an optical ground cable providing grounding interconnection for the towers and optical fibers for control and communication of the system.

Typically the right-of-way for the HVDC line is 66 meters, with 45 meters cleared directly below the line.

The system is capable of transmitting 2000 megawatts from the Nelson River stations to loads in the south.

Ground return electrodes
Although normally each of the lines run as bipolar systems, if a pole is shut down for maintenance or a fault, the ground return electrode is used to maintain partial capacity operation.

Bipoles 1 and 2 share a ground electrode of ring type, 305 m in diameter, 21.9 km from the Dorsey Converter Plant at 50.17472°N, -97.40222°W. The Dorsey electrode is connected with the converter plant by two overhead lines on wooden poles, one for Bipole 1 and one for Bipole 2.

At Radisson, Bipole 1 uses a ground electrode of the same size and type as Dorsey, but only 11.2 km away from the station at 56.35611°N, -94.75472°W.

Bipole 2 uses a ground electrode 548 m in diameter, and 11.2 km from the Henday Converter Station 56.43389°N, -94.22278°W.

Bipole 3 has a ground electrode site near the Keewatinoow Converter Station at 56.58222°N, -93.95056°W connected by a 30 km electrode line. At the southern Riel Converter Station, the electrode line runs about 26 km to a grounding electrode site at 49.93667°N, -96.71694°W near Hazelridge, Manitoba.

HVDC Kingsnorth

HVDC Kingsnorth was a high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) transmission system connecting Kingsnorth in Kent to two sites in London. It was at one time the only application of the technology of high voltage direct current transmission for the supply of transformer stations in a city, and the first HVDC link to be embedded within an AC system, rather than interconnecting two asynchronous systems. It was also the first HVDC scheme to be equipped with self-tuning harmonic filters and to be controlled with a "Phase Locked Oscillator", a principle which subsequently became standard on all HVDC systems.

It was designed in the late 1960s and went into service in 1974. It ran from Kingsnorth power station as a 59 kilometers long bipolar (3-wire) underground cable. The positive pole operating at a voltage of +266 kV terminated at the converter station in Beddington near Croydon. The negative pole continued to run a further 26 kilometers at -266 kV line to a similar station at Willesden in North London.

There was also the possibility, if the converter station in Kingsnorth was out of service, to run the system as monopolar HVDC between the Beddington and Willesden stations. The HVDC Kingsnorth was one of the last HVDC schemes equipped with mercury vapour rectifiers, which were ARAG/4-valves designed by English Electric. Each converter station for 266 kV consisted of two six-pulse valve bridges for 132 kV switched in series, which were each fed via a star-star and a star-delta connected transformer.

Apart from the Nelson River Bipole 1 system in Canada, all later-built HVDC systems used thyristor valves. The Kingsnorth HVDC scheme could transfer a maximum power of 640 megawatts (320 megawatts per pole).

In 1981, one mercury arc valve at Willesden Static Inverter Plant, was replaced by a H200 thyristor valve, developed by English Electric.

The system described was shut down in 1986 or 1987 following system reinforcement on the network it was embedded in. However the capacitor banks located at Kingsorth were used for voltage control on the network. These were later removed from the system completely in the mid 1980s? (1990s?) as they contained PCB.

Sharon Beshenivsky article

 * Hi Andrew,
 * You reverted an edit I made over a POV issue, and commented it as 'revert vandalism', you also added the Blatantvandal template to my user page.
 * I notice from your editing history you have been involved in disputes with other editors where you have reverted their edits (clearly not vandalism) with the comment 'revert vandalism' or similar.

 * Whatever you think of my edits to the Sharon_Beshenivsky article, I strongly urge you to read Vandalism

 * If you controversially revert a valid edit and describe this as 'revert vandalism', then in the short term others may be tricked into not reviewing it, but it can also give the impression you have no real justification for the reversion.

 * Of course, it also gets you off to a bad start with another editor, and makes the situation more likely to result in a revert war.

 * I may be new to wikipedia, but please take the advice, sincerely given, of someone with a long experience of usenet and other debating fora, that strawman arguments do *not* help you win disputes.

 * For the edit I have made to the article I have given a reason in the talk page for why this is a valid edit, and removes a POV. You have done no such thing for yours.

 * For this reason if no others, my version of the page is more valid than yours. If you disagree, please explain why before reverting my edits again. If you can give a convincing argument why your version is NPOV and relevant, I will willingly revert my own edits.
 * Plastic rat 18:22, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

You have violated the three revert rule WP:3rr. Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you.-Andrew Duffell 00:13, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Hello again Andrew,

Do you not understand the hypocrisy in what you have just written, or is it a deliberate troll?

Once again, as I have now told you three times. I have provided justification for my edits on the talk page. You have not provided justification for your reverts on the talk page.

Please read and understand the above sentence, and then give me a response that shows you have done so, or I will conclude you are trolling.

To repeat for the 4th time: I have asked you to give the reasons for you reversions three times now. You have failed to every time.

Remember 'silence implies assent'. If you have no response to my arguments I (or anybody else) have no choice but to accept them.

Unless you can give a valid reason to remove my edits (or any reason, for that matter) your repeated reversions are vandalism.

For that reason I am adding the vandalism tag to your user page. Please read it more carefully than you have read the Sharon_Beshenivsky talk page.

PS it seems almost to easy to point out I didn't violate the three revert rule. Perhaps you should read the history page more carefully as well.

regards

Plastic rat

Do you know of any *folder* syncing programs?
I saw you wrote a review of folder syncing programs. What I need is a program that monitors two folders and all their subfolders and mirrors them, but does not mirror their files. Only the folders. Do you know of any such program(s)? Preferably FLOSS ones?--Logomachist 02:45, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Naming conventions (chemistry)

General rule
From Naming conventions: "Generally, article naming should give priority to what the majority of English speakers would most easily recognize, with a reasonable minimum of ambiguity, while at the same time making linking to those articles easy and second nature."

Organic compound names
Trivial names (non-systematic, or "common" names) are favored for use in titles of articles for organic compounds instead of systematic names. Trivial names are usually different from the preferred name following IUPAC nomenclature. For compounds lacking trivial names, as is often the case for complex structures, substitutive nomenclature or other systematic names may be used. The general rule is to use the name most commonly used to refer to the compound, as evidenced by use in reliable sources (in line with WP:COMMONNAME).

Classes of compounds may have more specific guidance on naming, such as the use of international nonproprietary names for pharmaceutical compounds (see WP:NCMED and below).

Examples of use of trivial names and not systematic names include: Systematic and other accepted names for the compound not used as the article title should instead be redirects tagged with the R from alternative name template and listed in the chembox as other names, with especially significant alternative names mentioned in the lede in bold font.

Groups

 * The groups of the periodic table are numbered left to right as 1–18, with the f-block groups (columns) unnumbered, as recommended by IUPAC (1988).
 * Note that "group" has a chemical meaning and "column" has the tabular meaning.

 * Alternatively, they may be named by their first element, e.g. "boron group" for group 13. (But per below, avoid iron group for group 8 as ambiguous.)
 * In the 1–18 scheme, f-block groups are unnumbered. There is no widely-agreed system of numbering these groups in the literature, so one should not be used.
 * Avoid labeling these groups as n/a (for not applicable?, or not available i.e. "not found yet"?). Best is to leave this group number blank. Provide textual description when needed. This also applies to any (theoretical) g-block groups.
 * To refer to such a group (column), list the elements explicitly, e.g. ytterbium and nobelium. Do not name by first element (ytterbium group). The reasons for this are that many of the expected first-element names have other meanings as rare earth separation groups (see "Non-column groups" below), and that referring to individual f-block groups in the literature is rare (so it's better to be explicit).

 * Hydrogen belongs to group 1 (not group 17 or floating outside all groups), and helium belongs to group 18 (not group 2).
 * "halogen" and "noble gas" are used to refer to the entirety of groups 17 and 18, per a 2016 IUPAC report about naming new elements Some sources focusing on superheavy elements may not consider tennessine (Ts) to be a halogen, or oganesson (Og) to be a noble gas, as their predicted chemistry is generally supposed to be quite different from those of their lighter congeners. Such more limited usage should be explained before its first occurrence.
 * A few groups have IUPAC-approved names, called trivial name, that may also be used:
 * alkali metal = group 1 except hydrogen
 * alkaline earth metal = group 2
 * triels = group 13
 * tetrels = group 14
 * pnictogen = group 15 (earlier pentels)
 * chalcogen = group 16
 * halogen = group 17
 * noble gas = group 18

 * Triels (group 13), tetrels (group 14) and pentels (group 15) have been previously recommended by IUPAC (in 1970), and the former two are still used by them, though they are not in the most recent Red Book. Avoid rarer synonyms like icosagen (group 13) and crystallogen (group 14).
 * Avoid coinage metal for group 11, since "metal used for making coins" (see coinage metal) contains also metals outside of group 11, and roentgenium in group 11 is (for obvious reasons) not used for coins.
 * The group numberings with Roman numbers and "A" and "B" suffixes (like VIIA, VIII) should not be used, as they are outdated and ambiguous. For example, in the CAS scheme "group VIIB" denotes manganese group (group 7), while in the old IUPAC scheme it denotes halogen group (group 17). If they are used at all, context should clarify (disambiguate) into the 1–18 numbering. Care should be taken when translating old sources that use this nomenclature to modern terminology.
 * Some sets of groups have names:
 * The main group elements are the elements of groups 1, 2, and 13–18 (i.e. the s-block and p-block).
 * The transition elements are the elements of groups 3–12 (i.e. the d-block) – this in particular includes group 12 (although some sources do not include it).
 * The inner transition elements are f-block elements.

The scandium group (group 3)

 * The scandium group should by default be treated as containing the elements scandium (Sc), yttrium (Y), lutetium (Lu), and lawrencium (Lr). Lanthanum (La) and actinium (Ac), which in some sources take the positions of lutetium and lawrencium (especially in older sources), should not be in group 3. Care should be taken when employing sources that mention "group 3" or "group IIIB" or "group IIIA", since they may not always use this arrangement.
 * This group 3 set is established per the 1988 IUPAC report and per a subsequent 2021 provisional report by a IUPAC project dedicated to this constitution question
 * In fact, the old classification was based on erroneous early measurements of electron configurations, and was already criticised as "incorrect" by Lev Landau and Evgeny Lifshitz in 1948. The IUPAC report convention is accepted by most chemists and physicists considering the subject.
 * Note that the so-called "IUPAC(-published) periodic table" is not actually approved by IUPAC. It leaves the spaces below yttrium blank, and there is significant confusion among (and within) sources on whether that includes the lanthanides and actinides in group 3 or not; hence this form is also best avoided.

 * Alternative compositions of group 3 may be illustrated when describing the dispute, e.g. in Group 3 element.

Non-column groups

 * In case of commonly named "groups" that are not a column, such as Platinum group or Iron group, care should be taken that no confusion remains with column-wise periodic table group.

18 vs 32 columns

 * The periodic table can be displayed in either 18- or 32-column format, with the 32-column format as in Fig. 4 of the aforementioned 2021 IUPAC report. The forms present the same scientific statement and should be consistent with each other. The 18-column format cuts out the f-block rows, containing the elements lanthanum (La) through ytterbium (Yb) and actinium (Ac) through nobelium (No), and places them at the bottom of the table. Asterisks should be placed between groups 2 and 3 to indicate the theoretical position of these cut-out rows.
 * Note that these f-block rows do not equal the lanthanides/lanthanoids (La–Lu) and actinides/actinoids (Ac–Lr) which commonly extend to include lutetium and lawrencium.

 * Other structures, e.g. the Janet left-step or the 8-group form, should only be used when specifically illustrating such alternative periodic tables.

Blocks
At this English wiki, the preferred presentation coloring scheme of the elements is by blocks (s, p, d, or f).

The colours to be used are given in :

This template also gives colours for the higher orbitals:

Categorising elements
Categorisation is an attempt to classify all elements into one overall scheme, with each element in exactly one category (as opposed to listing non-completifying sets like coinage metals). A general classification is not achieved in sources (let alone without WP:NPOV and WP:OR). Such categorisation then is not to be used in general (for example, not as a general coloring of the periodic table).

A general colouring by metallicity is discouraged, because there are WP:NPOV and WP:NOR concerns: the borders of some categories can differ drastically between sources (e.g. metalloids), and there is no set of categories that are mutually exclusive and yet cover the entire periodic table (e.g. astatine is quite likely to be both a metal and a halogen). However, such coloring may be used to base and illustrate dedicated topics (such as in sections of metalloids). Individual, well-established "metallicity" categories, e.g. transition metal, post-transition metal, metalloid, rare earth metals etc., can be referred to without "all elements all once" colouring.

When a specific categorisation scheme is relevant (e.g. ), a periodic table-filling categorisation can be applied.

Element names
Traditionally, the names of three elements have been spelled differently in different parts of the English-speaking world. For articles about chemistry-related topics, Wikipedia follows the spellings recommended by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC):

These spellings should be used in all chemistry-related articles on English Wikipedia, even if they conflict with the other national spelling varieties used in the article.

This convention should also be applied to all compounds and derivative names of these chemicals: sulfate not sulphate; sulfuric not sulphuric; etc.

The English name of element 74 is tungsten and not wolfram: the latter was once adopted by IUPAC (in 1949), but is no longer recommended by them (even as an alternative) per the 2011 Principles. (Of course, the symbol is still W, and the name "wolfram" may be referred to when explaining why that is the case, or when quoting text in languages that use that name.) Similarly for derivatives (per the 2005 Red Book), use tungstate, tungsty, tungsta and not wolframate, wolframy, wolframa. (And similarly avoid the old names emanation and niton for element 86 outside historical contexts; there is a real confusion even in today's literature between radon meaning the element Rn and radon meaning the isotope 222Rn, but the way to solve that is by explicitly clarifying what is meant, not resurrecting archaic terms that have fallen out of use and may not be generally understood.)

Elements that have not been given trivial names by IUPAC may be referred to either by IUPAC systematic element names and symbols, or by atomic numbers. So ununennium and element 119 are both correct, and symbols Uue, 119, E119 may all be used in text. However, for natural disambiguation, the article titles should be at the systematic names.

When new elements are recognised, do not change the names and symbols to those proposed by the discoverers until the public comment period expires and IUPAC makes the final announcement! (The symbol has changed between the initial proposal and the final recommendation before, in the case of copernicium: originally proposed as Cp, but became Cn.)

Isotopes

 * Isotopes are named and identified as [element]-[mass number] with regular lowercase and hyphen (carbon-13), or by equivalent symbol format 13C (in wikicode: 13C). Avoid 13C, C-13, C13 (and avoid like single character, as used in Wikidata).
 * Metastable states are noted by format tantalum-180m1, 180m1Ta. The number $⟨^{1}⟩$ can be omitted when there is only one isomeric state, e.g. tantalum-180m, 180mTa. You may use a nuclide template. Corresponding letters also used in literature, these are not used in this wiki: $⟨^{m n p q}⟩$.
 * The hydrogen isotopes are exceptions where the common special names may be used:
 * Protium (= hydrogen-1, 1H).
 * Deuterium, D, 2D (= hydrogen-2, 2H).
 * Tritium, T, 3T (= hydrogen-3, 3H).
 * Chemical formulae with deuterated solvents (for example, in NMR use) are customarily described with "D" as chemical symbol: CD3OD, methanol-d4; CD3SOCD3, DMSO-d6 (regular notation would be C2H3O2H). These established systems are acceptable, provided they are consistent within an article.

 * Some isotopes have had historical or confusing names and symbols, these are to be avoided (except when quoting historical usage): e.g. thoron (Tn) (220Rn), actinon (An) (219Rn), ionium (Io) (230Th), radiocarbon (14C).

 * It is permissible to use the atomic number rather than the symbol in contexts about history when anachronism is to be avoided, e.g. "In 2003, the collaboration at the JINR discovered 288115 and 284113" (because at that point those elements had not yet been named). But this should be avoided outside talking about history. Avoid using the systematic element names in such contexts even when talking about history, because they are not supposed to be used once the element actually has a trivial name. For isotopes of undiscovered elements, either systematic names (e.g. 296Uue) or atomic numbers (e.g. 296119) are acceptable for the symbols, but only the systematic names can be used for the full names (e.g. ununennium-296, not element 119-296 which nobody uses).

Theoretical elements
Elements with atomic number Z ≥ 119 are theoretical elements, they have not been discovered (synthesized). Regarding public-page creation and content (reader-visible pages, such as artricle, category, template):

 * Element page: Articles pages, by systematic name, exist for E119 up to E184: Ununennium (Element 119).
 * These are either full articles (like Ununennium) or redirects (like Unbitrium, 58 redirects). This serves readers searching for these element names.

 * Redirect element articles like Unbitrium (Element 123) R:
 * Per WP:notability and WP:Reliable sources, these articles can and may only be created with content when substantial information is available.

 * Secondary public pages for element articles, like Isotopes of unbioctium,, Category:unbioctium:

To compare: Disovered element Oganesson (E118) has its article, plus all five secondary articles; none is a redirect.

 * Effectively this means that currently public-page creation, by content or redirect, is not permitted nor needed. See also documentation at.

Capitalization of elements and compounds
The names of elements and other chemicals should be written without abbreviations and treated as common nouns. They do not have special capitalization or italic formatting (see MOS:CAPS and MOS:ITALIC) regardless of the origin of the name unless appropriate for the start of a sentence or part of a title. The symbols for elements should always be capitalized.

 * Use: Iron and californium (Fe and Cf) are metals. After I iron my clothes, I will go to California.
 * Avoid: Iron and californium (fe and cf) are metals.
 * Avoid: Iron and Californium (Fe and Cf) are metals.
 * Avoid: Iron and californium (Fe and Cf) are metals.

Prefixes that are such as sec-, tert-, ortho-, meta-, para-, α-, β-, D -, L -, (+)-, (−)-, (R)-, (S)- and the numerical prefixes are not considered part of the name: they each follow their own capitalization and italics rules, and it is instead the first letter of the main part of the name that is treated as the "first letter" of the name to be capitalized where appropriate. Exceptions are cyclo, iso, neo, and spiro which are considered part of the name and therefore not italicized or hyphenated. Substituent groups are also considered part of the name.

In former versions of the IUPAC recommendations, names were written with a capital initial letter. This practice has been abandoned in later publications. IUPAC policy differentiate proper names from things named after proper names. This rule (full name uncapitalized but symbol capitalized) applies also to isotopes and nuclides, when completely written out: thus 14C but carbon-14.

Prefixes in titles
When the chosen article title starts with a prefix including positional identifiers (ortho-, meta-, para-, N-, O-, α-, β-, γ-, etc.), isomeric identifiers (sec-, tert-, etc.), stereochemical identifiers (cis-, trans-, (E)-, (Z)-, etc.), chiral identifiers ((R)-, (S)-, D -, L -, (+)-, (−)-, etc.), or numbers, the first letter after the prefix in the name should be capitalized: hence titlecase 1,1,1-Trichloroethane not 1,1,1-trichloroethane. A redirect from the uncapitalized version should be created to simplify linking from other articles.

Non-numerical prefixes are italicized and uncapitalized in titles (tert-Butyl alcohol, for example). Both numerical and non-numerical prefixes are followed by a hyphen. The template DISPLAYTITLE is used to display titles which start with lowercase letters or include italics.

Note that cyclo, iso, neo, and spiro are considered part of a chemical name (such as isopropanol) and not considered prefixes. No hyphens or italics are used in these cases.

Article titles for compounds and related topics should reflect how the compound name is commonly written and use Greek letter prefixes if appropriate, e.g. Α-Ketoglutaric acid, using DISPLAYTITLE to display as α-Ketoglutaric acid, not Alpha-Ketoglutaric acid and displaying as alpha-Ketoglutaric acid. In the article page name (article location) it is important to use the uppercase Greek letter, even though it can be easily confused with uppercase Latin letters in many cases, so that DISPLAYTITLE (or alternatively, lowercase title) will work properly. It is also essential to ensure redirects exist for all possible typed variations of the compound name so searchers can easily reach the appropriate article.

Use of Stock nomenclature
Stock nomenclature for inorganic compounds is based on the indication of the oxidation number (as a roman numeral, in parentheses) of each of the major elements in the compound, e.g. iron(III) chloride. It is widely, if sometimes incorrectly, used on Wikipedia for the titles of articles about inorganic compounds. It is not obligatory, as there are other acceptable methods for naming these compounds, but it is often preferred as the most common non-ambiguous name for a substance. The following guidelines are based on current WikiBestPractice:

 * 1) Only the cationic element (i.e. the element whose name appears unchanged in the compound name) is assigned its oxidation number. Except in rare cases (none at present), we do not assign the oxidation number in the anion: hence potassium permanganate not potassium manganate(VII), sodium hypochlorite not sodium chlorate(I).
 * 2) There is no space between the end of the element name and the opening parenthesis: hence silver(I) fluoride not silver (I) fluoride. Note that this is an exception to the usual English style for parentheses.
 * 3) It is not necessary to specify the oxidation number when there is no possibility of ambiguity in the compound title: hence sodium chloride not sodium(I) chloride.
 * 4) Stock nomenclature should be used for predominantly ionic compounds. Compounds with a substantial degree of covalency should be named by stoichiometric nomenclature: hence titanium tetrachloride not titanium(IV) chloride. However, it should be noted that ionic vs. covalent (not to mention metallic and van der Waals bonding) is a continuum and that many such situations will require significant editorial judgement (e.g. mercury(II) chloride, which is in fact a molecular compound, or ruthenium(IV) oxide which exhibits metallic conductivity).

Names of oxyanions should in general follow the names in Table X of the IUPAC 2005 Red Book. Exceptions can be made if an alternate name is much more common in the literature, e.g. xenate rather than xenonate (don't generalise this to radon though, as it would create an ambiguity between radon and radium).

Drug-related articles
Where a compound has a WHO international nonproprietary name (INN), this should be used as the article title (see WP:NCMED). Exceptions would be where the pharmaceutical use of a certain compound is secondary to other applications (commodity chemical, synthetic intermediate, etc., agriculture or industry).

Redirects

 * From Deletion policy: "Don't worry, redirects are cheap."

Redirects should be created for:

 * Alternative names for the compound, including acronyms where appropriate;
 * Alternative capitalizations, where there is a numerical prefix in the article title;
 * Formulas of simple compounds; for example H2O → water.

Exceptions
Even with the best will in the world, no set of guidelines can cover every case. Some articles on Wikipedia have non-standard titles through consensus that this is the most commonly used name (in scientific circumstances) for the compound concerned, whatever IUPAC or the other rules suggest. For example:

 * ethylene oxide not oxirane
 * phosphine not phosphane (and for substituted phosphines, arsine, stibine, and bismuthine)
 * Wilkinson's catalyst not chlorotris(triphenylphosphane)rhodium
 * Vaska's complex not carbonylchlorobis(triphenylphosphane)iridium
 * titin not methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylalanyl...(189,768 letters)...isoleucine

Please do not revert-war over the naming of an article: the best place for discussion is on the article's talk page or (failing that) at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Chemicals.

Organic compound classes and functional groups
For articles about classes of organic compounds, the singular class name from the IUPAC "Glossary of Class Names" is usually used, e.g. alkane, carboxylic acid, ether, ketone, acyl chloride. Articles about functional groups should use the name most commonly used to refer to the group in reliable sources (generally, the name of the corresponding radical) followed by the word "group", e.g. alkyl group, carboxyl group, phenyl group, carbonyl group, trimethylsilyl group, triflyl group. In many cases, the compound or compound class and corresponding functional group are discussed in the same article, generally using the compound class as the article title with the name(s) of the functional group redirecting there (although the opposite is possible).

For groups of compounds named after a simple parent compound, articles about the group should be located at the plural of the parent compound name, e.g. hydrazines, silanes, boranes, diphosphenes. Similarly, salts and esters of carboxylic acids should collectively be referred to by the plural of the carboxylate. In some cases, the group of compounds (e.g. triflates), the functional group (e.g. triflate group), and the carboxylate (e.g. triflate) will warrant a separate article; whether the article should be titled by the compound group, functional group, or carboxylate should be decided on a case by case basis depending on the group and how the article is constructed. Related terms not chosen as the title should be redirects and mentioned in the lede in bold font. In cases where the carboxylate is not generally considered as a functional group, the plural may either redirect to the article about the parent acid (or the carboxylate if there is a separate article about the carboxylate), or be a separate article or chemistry index that lists salts and esters of the parent acid (e.g. benzoates). Rare cases may have separate articles for the carboxylate, functional group, and group of compounds. Hatnotes should be used to link between these similarly named pages to facilitate navigation between these closely related topics.

Organometallic compounds
The general article about the organometallic chemistry of an element should be entitled "Organo[element] chemistry", e.g., organomercury chemistry, organopalladium chemistry, organozinc chemistry. The IUPAC definition of an "organometallic compound" includes boron, silicon, arsenic, and selenium, so this title guideline also applies to organoboron chemistry, organosilicon chemistry, etc. For consistency this is extended to even obvious nonmetals, e.g. organoxenon chemistry. The related pages "Organo[element] compound" and its plural should generally be redirects. Some flexibility can be used if the article is heavily weighted toward a specific topic, such as the case for organolithium reagent, so long as the other forms redirect there. In some cases, a broad-concept article regarding the organometallic chemistry of an element may not yet exist; in these cases it is adequate to redirect these terms to an appropriate section of another article. On the other hand, depending on the metallic element, it may well be appropriate to have additional articles covering specific compounds or groups of compounds, or specific reactions.

Forked Deer River

The Forked Deer River system is the main drainage of the central portion of West Tennessee. Locals pronounce the first word of the river's name with two syllables, as in “Forkéd”.

The Forked Deer consists of various streams designated "Forked Deer" and their tributaries. Much of the Forked Deer drainage basin was initially wetlands; however much of this area has been drained and most Forked Deer tributaries have been channelized for agricultural purposes. In the mid-20th century much of this was done under the auspices of the Obion-Forked Deer Basin Authority, a Tennessee state agency. Environmental concerns have led to the cessation of channelization on a widespread basis; the federal government's "no net loss" policy regarding wetlands means that further channelization must be offset by creating new wetlands, called "mitigation lands", elsewhere.

Much of the channelized flow is routed into the Obion River just above the mouth of that river into the Mississippi, other streams related to the system have their own mouths into the Mississippi. In some areas where the historic channels are left in place even after the bulk of the flow has been routed into new ones, the historic channels at times still demonstrate considerable flow, especially after heavy rains.

Local historians record that barges and small riverboats plied the Forked Deer in the early 19th century as far up river as the present location of the city of Jackson. Siltation from agricultural run-off eventually choked the river, and channelization became a major focus of West Tennessee politicians until the 1970s. River cutoffs have left numerous small finger lakes that are popular with local crappie and bass fishers. Otherwise, the river is a slow-moving canal with little scenic appeal.

Sharpshooter (professional wrestling)

The Sharpshooter, also known as the sasori-gatame (蠍固め or サソリ固め; English: scorpion hold) and the Scorpion Deathlock, is a professional wrestling submission hold. Similar to several holds such as the cloverleaf leg-lace, the Boston crab and the standing reverse figure-four leglock, the move was invented by Japanese professional wrestler Riki Choshu, and was popularized by Sting and Bret Hart as the Scorpion Deathlock and Sharpshooter respectively.

The hold begins with the opponent supine on the mat. The applying wrestler steps between the opponent's legs with their own left leg and wraps the opponent's legs at shin level around that leg. If they decides to cross the opponent's legs around their own right leg, they have to cross the opponent's right leg over to the left or the left leg over the right. Holding the opponent's legs in place, they then grab the opponent's leg which they have crossed over the other and steps over the opponent, flipping them over into a prone position before leaning back to compress their lower back. This move is used more commonly by Canadian wrestlers, typically in Canada, to get a bigger crowd reaction, since it is associated with Bret Hart and the Hart family; Canadian wrestlers Edge and Chris Benoit were also notable users of the move.

History and variations
While Bret Hart is the wrestler with whom the Sharpshooter is most often associated, Ronnie Garvin and Sting were the first wrestlers to prolifically use the hold in North America, during which time it was called the "Scorpion Deathlock", deriving from the original Japanese name. In Hart's autobiography, he noted that prior to his first major singles push, Pat Patterson asked if he could do the move, which he was familiar with from Japan, but did not know how to execute. Hart revealed that the only person in the locker room who knew how to execute the move was Konnan, who taught it to Hart. Its name was based on Hart's "Hit Man" nickname (from the underworld slang hit, murder). In WWF publications of the era, Bret's father Stu Hart, long known as a trainer in the game, was generally given credit for devising the move. Edge innovated an inverse variation, which he has dubbed the Edgecator, where he would apply the hold normally, only to face the opposite direction and kneel on the opponent's legs.

The Sharpshooter was infamously used in the Montreal Screwjob at Survivor Series in 1997. Shawn Michaels applied Hart's own Sharpshooter on him. Vince McMahon double-crossed Hart by ordering referee Earl Hebner to ring the bell and award the match to Michaels, despite Hart never having submitted. This moment would be referenced within kayfabe through various future events; McMahon repeated the action at the next year's Survivor Series in 1998, as part of a storyline, during the "Deadly Game" tournament final between The Rock and Mankind. Another occurred on Saturday Night's Main Event XXXII, during a Street Fight between Shawn Michaels and Shane McMahon.

Scorpion cross lock
Also known as an inverted sharpshooter combined with a double chickenwing, this hold sets up the same as the sharpshooter, with the opponent supine on the mat with the applying wrestler stepping between the opponent's legs with their right leg, and wrapping the opponent's legs at shin level around that leg. However, instead of stepping over the opponent to flip them, the applying wrestler flips the opponent over from left-to-right, keeping the opponent in front of them. The applying wrestler then leans over the opponent and grabs their arms, applying a double chicken wing to the opponent. The applying wrestler then squats back, lifting the opponent's torso into the air. The move was used by Bull Nakano and formerly used by Saraya Bevis, which was coined as the PTO (derived from their then ring-name Paige).
