General Motors W platform

The W-platform (also known as the W-body) was a General Motors automotive platform underpinning both mid size and full-size front-wheel drive cars — across the platform's three generations from 1987-2016.

Code named GM10, the program began development in 1982 under Chairman Roger B. Smith and debuted in 1987 with the Pontiac Grand Prix, Buick Regal, and Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme coupés — with the four-door sedan body style introduced for 1990.

The 1997–2005 2nd Generation, or W2 Platform, used both a 110.5 in full-size wheelbase as well as a 109 in mid-size wheelbase.

From 2005-2016, the W3 Platform used a 110.5 in, full-size wheelbase in sedan and coupe configurations, including for the Pontiac Grand Prix (2004-2008), Buick LaCrosse/Allure (2005-2009), Chevrolet Impala/Impala Limited (2005-2016) and Chevrolet Monte Carlo (2000-2007) — each with high performance V8 variants.

History
The platform cost $7 billion to develop, with engineering executed by the Chevrolet-Pontiac-Canada (CPC) group; also known as the small car division. The original program was intended to replace all midsize cars produced by Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Buick on the G and A platforms. This ultimately did not happen; while the A-platform Chevrolet Celebrity and Pontiac 6000 were quickly discontinued, the A-body Buick Century and Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera remained in production until 1996.

The plan was for seven GM plants that would each assemble 250,000 of the cars, or 21% of the total U.S. car market. It was badly executed from the start, but GM's 1984 reorganization, combined with changing market dynamics, wrought havoc with the program and it never recovered. In 2008, prominent shareholder activist Robert A. G. Monks noted that GM had lost $2000 on every car it produced in 1989, the year before the last of the original GM10's were launched.

The next iteration of the platform was known as the MS2000 or simply the W2 platform. Early versions used a transversely installed, fiberglass mono-leaf spring combined with struts in the rear. The "generation 1.5" W-body models had updated rear suspensions that used coil springs instead of the transverse leaf spring design inspired by the Chevrolet Corvette. For the 1997 model year the second generation W-body was released with a MacPherson strut coil spring design.

A revised and updated W3 platform was introduced in 2004, rather than a stretched Epsilon platform, as had been planned. Parma Metal Fabricating Division of Parma, Ohio was responsible for metal fabrication and final assembly took place at GM's Oshawa Car Assembly. The transverse use of GM's LS small-block engine in the W-bodies was a major addition for 2005.

The GM W Platform was phased out with the production of the new long-wheelbase Epsilon II platform. The last car produced on the W platform was the ninth generation of the Chevrolet Impala, which was replaced by the Epsilon-based tenth-generation Impala, beginning in model year 2014. GM continued to produce the W-body Impala to fleet customers only under the name Impala Limited until production ended in May 2016.

Stauffenberg

The Schenk von Stauffenberg family is a Roman Catholic Uradel German noble family from Swabia, Germany. The family's best-known recent member was Colonel Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg – the key figure in the 1944 "20 July plot" to assassinate Adolf Hitler.

History
The recorded history of the Schenk von Stauffenberg family begins in Swabia in the 13th century, when the family, who belonged to the Reichsrittern (Imperial Knights), originated from the settlement Cell, where they owned extensive estates surrounding the village and the Zollerberg.

Its first known member is mentioned in 1251 as Wernherus Pincerna de Celle, who in 1255 was appointed to the ceremonial court office of Schenk (title) (cup-bearer, sommelier, butler) with the Counts of Zollern. The officeholder was in charge of his lord's wine cellars and vineyards, and when the office of Schenk later became hereditary within the family, the title was adopted into the family name.

Surnames were appended according to the officeholder's place of residence, and so the family name varied between Schenk von Zell, Schenk von Neuenzell, Schenk von Andeck, Schenk von Erpfingen and Schenk von Stauffenberg. By the end of the 15th century, the family's permanent name was Schenk von Stauffenberg, which refers to Burg Stauffenberg, a former castle situated by a small cone-shaped mountain of the same name between the small town of Hechingen and its suburb Rangendingen in Land Württemberg. A tradition in the family also associates it with the Staufen dynasty.

The Stauffenbergs rose in the world in 1698 when Emperor Leopold I conferred upon the brothers Maximilian Gottfried and Johann Philipp the hereditary title of Reichsfreiherr (Imperial Baron). The family was later split into four branches: the Katzensteiner, Bacher, Wilflinger and Amerdinger ones. The former two became extinct during the 18th century, while a member of the Wilflinger branch was raised to the rank of hereditary Reichsgraf (Imperial Count) by Emperor Leopold II in 1785. Since the Wilflinger branch also became extinct in 1833, only the baronial Amerdinger branch remained. All now living members of the family are descendants of the brothers Franz Ludwig and Friedrich of the Amerdinger branch. Franz Ludwig was made a hereditary Graf (Count) in the Kingdom of Bavaria by King Ludwig II. Since then, there exist two sub-branches: one which holds the title of Count and one which bears the title of Imperial Baron.

In the 16th century, the Stauffenberg family acquired the Amerdingen castle near Nördlingen through marriage. Before that, the Stauffenbergs were owners of Wilflingen and Jettingen. Over the course of the years, further estates were added to the family's possessions, such as Schloss Greifenstein and Schloss Burggrub in Heiligenstadt near Bamberg, the Lautlingen castle near Ebingen on the southern slopes of the Schwäbische Alb, Schloss Rißtissen some twenty kilometers south of Ulm, and the Straßberg and Wildentierberg estates in Lautlingen near Albstadt.

After 1918, when the constitution of the Weimar Republic abolished all noble titles in Germany and declared them to be part of the family name, the family came to have two names in order to preserve the former titles of Schenk, Graf (Count) and Freiherr (Baron) as parts of the surnames.

Since the title of Schenk is considered to be of superior rank due to being a hereditary office title, it is placed before the noble title, which in turn is placed before the surname. The correct versions of the family's surnames are thus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg and Schenk Freiherr von Stauffenberg respectively. Two of the family's members also served as Prince-Bishops – of Bamberg (Marquard Sebastian), and of Augsburg and Konstanz (Johann Franz) – and thus they used the title of Fürst (Prince) instead of their other noble titles.

Notable family members

 * Marquard Sebastian Schenk von Stauffenberg, Prince-Bishop of Bamberg (14 May 1644 – 9 Oct 1693)
 * Johann Franz Schenk von Stauffenberg. Prince-Bishop of Constance (1658–1740)
 * Berthold Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg (15 Mar 1905 – 10 Aug 1944)
 * Philippe von Stauffenberg (born 17 May 1964)
 * Alexander Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg (15 Mar 1905 – 27 Jan 1964)
 * Melitta Schenk Gräfin von Stauffenberg (9 Jan 1903 – 8 Apr 1945)
 * Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg (15 Nov 1907 – 20 Jul 1944)
 * Nina Schenk Gräfin von Stauffenberg (27 Aug 1913 – 2 Apr 2006)
 * Berthold Maria Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg (born 3 Jul 1934)
 * Franz-Ludwig Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg (born 4 May 1938)

Allan Roy Dafoe

Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe, OBE (29 May 1883 – 2 June 1943) was a Canadian obstetrician, best known for delivering and caring for the Dionne quintuplets, the first quintuplets known to survive early infancy.

Biography
Dafoe was born in Madoc, Ontario, the son of a physician Dr William Allan Dafoe. He trained in the same profession and, in early 1909, he went into practice in Callander, Ontario, where he resided for the rest of his life.

On 28 May 1934 he assisted in the multiple births of the Dionne family, that saw the survival of the mother and all the children. This got international press notice. He continued to help care for the children for years, and became something of a celebrity in the onslaught of media attention. In response to public interest, a special nursery was built for the children where the curious members of the public viewed them. There was no charge to this, so it did not give the impression to the viewers they were exploiting the children. This was generally approved of at the time, but later generated criticism for the sideshow atmosphere it produced. Souvenir stands and other concessions surrounded the area where the quints lived.

Once the quints were born, Dafoe became one of their guardians, and he devoted little work to his medical practice, turning it over to others. He became wealthy from his pay as guardian and from multiple commercial endorsements and speaking fees.

In The Country Doctor (1936), a movie starring the quints, Jean Hersholt portrayed Dr. John Luke, a character based on Dafoe, and there were two sequels: Reunion (1936) and Five of a Kind (1938). When Dafoe blocked the idea of continuing the series, Hersholt created Dr. Christian, which had a long run on radio.

Dafoe's induction into the Circus Saints and Sinners Club of New York as "Doctor of Litters" in 1938 drew much criticism from French-Canadian groups who suggested such an honour (howbeit facetious; he arrived in a Rural Free Delivery wagon emblazoned "A. R. Dafoe--Mass Deliveries") was condescending and against the best interests of the quintuplets; such, in fact, eventually being used by the quints' father, Oliva, in his subsequent case to reclaim custody.

Dafoe was awarded an Order of the British Empire for his work with the Dionne quintuplets. He died on 2 June 1943 at age 60 from pneumonia and complications from cancer, and is buried at Park Lawn Cemetery in Toronto.

Today, his home is the Callander Bay Heritage Museum and Alex Dufresne Gallery in Callander, Ontario. It is located at 107 Lansdowne St. E. and tells the story of the history of Callander with a special focus on himself and the Dionne quintuplets.

Dunster House

Dunster House is one of twelve undergraduate residential houses at Harvard University. Built in 1930, it is one of the first two dormitories at Harvard University constructed under President Abbott Lawrence Lowell's House Plan and one of the seven Houses given to Harvard by Edward Harkness. In the early days, room rents varied based on the floor and the size of the room. Dunster was unique among Harvard dormitories for its sixth-story walk-up (it had no elevators); these rooms were originally rented by poorer students, such as Norman Mailer.

The House was named in honor of Henry Dunster, the first President of Harvard University.

History
The tower of Dunster House is inspired by, but somewhat smaller than, the famous Tom Tower of Christ Church, Oxford. Above the east wing is the Dunster family coat of arms, and above the west wing is the coat of arms of Magdalene College, Cambridge, where Henry Dunster matriculated in 1627. Magdalene College commemorated the relationship between the two universities by sending medieval tracery stones from the First Court of Magdalene; these are now set in the wall near the doors to J-entry of Dunster House.

Dunster is located on the banks of the Charles River next to the John W. Weeks Footbridge, which links Harvard's Allston and Cambridge campuses. From above, its architectural shape, unusual among the River Houses, resembles a branching flowchart due to the odd trapezoidal footprint of the land on which it was built. Dunster underwent a "full House renewal," a comprehensive renovation that was completed in 2016. It was the first of Harvard's residential houses to undergo such a full renewal.

Dunster, like many of the Harvard Houses, has many yearly traditions, including Keg Races in the fall, Messiah sing-a-long in the winter, the Goat Roast in the spring, and the yearly Dunster House Opera. It is known as one of the more social houses at Harvard, boasting popular Stein Clubs and formals in either the beautiful dining hall or courtyard.

As of the 2017-2018 academic year, Dunster's Faculty Deans (formerly known as "house masters") are Sean Kelly and Cheryl Chen. The House's first master was Chester N. Greenough (Harvard Class of 1898), English Professor and former Dean of Harvard College. Former faculty deans/house masters include Roger Porter and Ann Porter, Raoul Bott, and Sally Falk Moore and Cresap Moore. Gregory Davis currently serves as the Allston Burr Resident Dean. His predecessor was Michael Uy.

Dunster's mascot is the moose, inspired by the three golden elk on the Dunster family crest.

Notable alumni
Al Gore and Tommy Lee Jones were roommates at Dunster House in the late 1960s. Other notable Dunster alumni include Tatyana Ali, Christopher Durang, Lindsay Hyde, Dan Wilson, Michael Mainelli, and Jean Kwok. In 1995 resident Sinedu Tadesse killed her roommate Trang Ho in Dunster before committing suicide in a closet.

Kalacakra

Kalacakra was a 1970s German psychedelic underground band formed by the duo Claus Rauschenbach and Heinz Martin. Their sound carried a heavily eastern influence, with a lot of flute, sitar and percussions, and their style has been described as "mantric acid folk." "Kalacakra" refers to a Tibetan Buddhist concept of "time-cycles." The band released its only album, Crawling To Lhasa, in 1972. They recorded in German.

The album was re-released on CD in 2001 by Garden of Delights, featuring two bonus tracks absent from the 1972 release.

In 2002 after a gap of 30 years another album was released by the reformed band. The album was called "Peace" and contained a more New Age fare compared to the 1972 Krautrock.

Talk:The Zone (YTV)

Edited out the rumour about Paula Lemyre returning to the Zone. This is pure fan-speculation and came to be like this. Fan 1: "Wouldn't it be awesome if Paula was back?" - Fan 2: "Paula will be back? Awesome!!!" And since this is an encyclopedia and not a rumour mill, I removed it. In addition to that, Ms. Lemyre herself does not display any signs of returning to YTV and Corus. Furthermore, she's involved with another project at the moment. (84.20.58.61 18:16, 29 January 2007 (UTC))

this is useless---Wikipedia is not a TV Guide

no, the zone is an important part for kids growin up in Canada, I've spent so many hours watching it, lol

I think this article is useful, but needs to cover a bit more of the history of The Zone to be interesting. -Dunro

I added some info on the Zone hosts in the past, I'm so proud of it, nearly 90% of it is from my memories of watching The Zone ^_^ For the rest I checked up some names using the Internet Archive --Phred Levi 18:59, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Wow, your description almost seems to start around when I stopped *l*. I can't remember if Snit was the first "puppet co-host" after The After-School Zone became The Zone ... for some reason, I'm pretty sure that Warren (the green Grog?) was around after the show became The Zone. -- However, my brain is going more by my memories of set changes than anything else right now.  (The original after school zone set, a grey one, a blue one, and... the current one).  Dunro 11:24, Mar 19, 2005 (UTC)

For a large generation of children, and now adults in Canada, the Zone was a huge part of their childhood. This is as relevant (and since this information is VERY hard to come by), this is a very welcome, and acceptable article. And for the record: TV Guide wouldn't supply this either.

Stuff to add
I remember Daren Jones (from the Buzz) was on there for a while too.

How is the zone determined to be a "success" while breakfast zone and the others are a "failure" ? This goes into the question of why they even have the zone in the first place. Is it to slightly raise the amount of viewers, or to get people to keep watching after one show and stay for the rest? It must be important. That time could be easily used for lucrative commercials. --Havermayer 22:08, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * It says in the YTV article: "popular imported programming would run a few minutes short due to fewer ads being permitted compared to US stations. Instead of filling the time with public service announcements or other filler material, the idea of devoting several minutes between programs to interaction between live-action hosts was utilized, and has proven successful to this day."
 * The purpose wasn't just to keep people watching, they needed to fill that free time in between shows, so hence "The Zone" was created --Krakko 22:58, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Tito Lemmey=Carlos
At one point in The Zone while Sugar and Carlos were hosting, they brought in a guest host with a lie detector. At the end of that particular block, they used it to prove that Carlos was indeed Tito Lemmey.

 * It wasn't a real lie detector. It was just a joke. Lie detectors look and work way different.
 * Yeah, I kinda thought that. But if they were maintaining that Carlos wasn't Tito Lemmey until then, and they "proved" themselves wrong out of nowhere, wouldn't that mean something? Random the Scrambled 14:41, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

--- What about the meaning of "i'm in the zone"? this seems to be completely forgotten. -- Pete_I

Where they are now
A user at a forum posted information he found about the hosts about where they are as of now - though, he couldn't find information on two of the PJs. Should this information be posted? Or would it merit another page? Or should it even be posted at all? Firehawk12 14:59, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Heavily revised and added history
I personally watched the first episode of the Afterschool Zone (although I can't recall the exact date, I think 1991 or 92) and I was quite a rabid follower. I've tried to include as much history as can remember and find regarding the early years. I've removed the references to Phil and Snit being the first incarnation of the program and written in the grogs and Warren. I have Warren's coup of YTV partially taped. I would appreciate more information on PJ Jenn however, the blonde female host from around '92/93 to maybe '97 as well as what the Saturday morning block (now called the Vortex) used to be called since it used to be directly tied into the Zone and featured the same PJs albeit on a different set. I can check my tapes later.

And yes, this is very crucial information to many Canadians from ages 5-30 who have all grown up with some incarnation of the Zone and the various PJs over the last 15 years. The Zone's cultural significance to maybe two generations of young Canadians is still very important and deserves more information.

The purpose of the Zone is to provide a segue-way into the next block of programming to retain viewers and it's grown a following for current viewers and strong nostalgia for many Canadians for whom the Zone was integral to their childhoods and young adult life. In the late 80s and early 90s, this was already popular practice on Saturday morning blocks and on targeted cable channels. By using these segueways, channels targeted at children or the youth market assuaged parental concerns about commercialism (which was rampant since the 80s in so-called "toy-oriented 30-minute violence commercials" as they were labled. These gave a chance to provide educational and inspiration stimulation (early YTV in 1988 was full of educational, health, and inspiration videos for young audiences - something the current YTV is seriously lacking). But the Zone was quickly simply just a variety entertainment segment that focused on the PJs and the other hosts (grogs, Snit, etc.) talking to the audience like those prevalent on other channels. As the 90s wore on the "get wierd" and "funky" image of YTV was probably most influenced by the Zone.

That said, what's the background on the "Keep It Wierd" part of YTV not being popular? I didn't like it, but this stems from the wierdness already in the show from the 1995-96 era which is markedly different from the wierdness of the current zone. I don't think it should be there as it's just viewer conjecture.

I'm afraid, I know almost nothing about the current Zone though, as I've grown up and stopped watching after the Phil and Paul era. I tried to fix some of the writing regarding the newer Zone (with Sugar, etc.), as it sounded somewhat "immature" and there were plenty of grammatical errors and framents...which is to be expected since those familiar would be younger audiences. I haven't really watched the Zone since the millenium so I can't verify or add any information to those sections.

I've also added a picture of Phil and Snit to provide more representation.

This article can be improved greatly by the addition of more information about the early 90s Zone and perhaps some more clarified and professional information regarding the Zone's more modern incarnations. If possible, an accurate listing of all PJ's would be helpful.

- You got it pretty damn well. Good job in with that endeavour, as I contemplated doing this myself, but couldn't find adaquate information. From what I can remember, relating to the Zone, you got them all.

PJ Phil, PJ Jenn, PJ Paul, PJ Jenny (PJ Katie of PJ Katie's Farm), hereon out they dropped that moniker. To my recollection, there were ~ two or three other PJS. A white guy with short blonde hair, and maybe two others, on at various times of the day. I remember that Phil wasn't originally on the 'pre-Zone' block with Jenn, but rather, someone else was.
 * More than that, there was PJ Jan, who is Janis Mackey-Fryer of CTV fame. Also PJ Rob, who is Rob Stefaniuk better known now for Phil the Alien.  Not sure what happened to PJ Aashna. 74.12.80.240 04:40, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

pj Phil
I've been looking for a while for more info on him, as an actor and musician (Razed In Black).

History or Current
''In its early history, the Zone had featured a group of puppets known as Grogs as the co-hosts. A large television with a frame resembling a piece of purple bubble gum with eyes and other mechanical miscellany called Snit(Atul N. Rao) was once a "host" on The Zone; after him came Elvayz, a talking bust of Elvis Presley, although this character too has been removed.''

The above text in the Current Version of the Zone should be moved to the history section. -Vvuser 01:28, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Spelling of Carlos' last name
I have reasons to believe that his name is spelt incorrectly on Wikipedia. According to Issue 31, Spring 2007 of Whoa! Magazine, Carlos was listed as "Bustamante" instead of "Bustamente" under Ink Slingers. However, I'm not going to change this because it could have easily been a typo.

The correct spelling is "Carlos Bustamante" - Knowledge based on attending school and dance classes with Carlos as a child.

Can Anyone Fix The Broken Carlos Link?
Under the pic of Sug and Carlos, his name is spelled wrong as "Bustamante" and that link goes to a scientist born in 1951. The right spelling according to Sug's site and YTV's magazine is Bustamente. However I can't find a way to correct the spelling in the caption under the pic. Does anyone know how to do this? Please fix it... Also I think Carlos needs his own article and it should be mentioned he was a background actor/dancer in that Lindsay Lohan movie Confessions of a Teen-age Drama Queen, which is quiet a good movie, you can see him right behind Lindsay on the stage in the rehearsal scenes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.95.55.204 (talk) 06:05, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Stig Dagerman

Stig Halvard Dagerman (5 October 1923 – 4 November 1954) was a Swedish author and journalist prominent in the aftermath of World War II.

Biography
Stig Dagerman was born Stig Halvard Andersson in Älvkarleby, Uppsala County. He later took his father's surname Jansson and then changed his name to Stig Dagerman in his teens. In the course of five years, 1945–49, he enjoyed success with four novels, a collection of short stories, a book about postwar Germany, five plays, hundreds of poems and satirical verses, several essays of note and a large amount of journalism. He died in 1954, having shut the doors of the garage and run the engine.

Literary style and themes
Dagerman is representative of the Swedish literary movement fyrtiotalism. His works deal with universal problems of morality and conscience, of sexuality and social philosophy, of love, compassion, justice, fear, guilt, and loneliness. Despite the somber content, he also displays a wry sense of humor that occasionally turns his writing into burlesque or satire.

Legacy
The annual Stig Dagerman Prize awards individuals who, like Dagerman, promote empathy and understanding through their work.

In 2023 the centenary of Stig Dagerman's birth was celebrated in Sweden with various events and staging of plays. In Stig Dagerman's native Älvkarleby a park was namned after Dagerman and a statue of him was placed there.

Gerardus Johannes Mulder

Gerardus Johannes Mulder or Gerrit Jan Mulder (27 December 1802 – 18 April 1880) was a Dutch organic and analytical chemist.

Life
Mulder was born in Utrecht and earned a medical degree from Utrecht University.

He became a reader of chemistry in Rotterdam and in 1840 he was appointed professor at Utrecht University.

Protein
Following a suggestion by Jöns Jacob Berzelius, Mulder used the term protein in his 1838 paper, "On the composition of some animal substances" (originally in French but translated in 1839 to German). In the same publication, he also proposed that animals draw most of their protein from plants.

Mulder "was the first to propose a theory concerning the causes of the differences between albumin, casein, and fibrin, and other substances more or less similar to them in physical properties and in their chemical behavior when exposed to reagents. Analyses of these substances showed that their percentage contribution with respect to carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen were so similar as to suggest that they contain one common radical." This radical, a macromolecule, had formula and was known as protein. The variations in albuminous substances were attributed to peripheral bonds of protein to sulfur and/or phosphorus. Justus Liebig and his students sought to determine the structure of proteins, but until the methods of Emil Fischer and Franz Hofmeister became available, the amino acid decompositions were unknown.

Augustus Voelcker was Mulder's assistant for a year from 1846.

In 1850, Mulder was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. He died in Bennekom.

Image copyright problem with Image:Dunster.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Dunster.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

Image:Dunster.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Dunster.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

You'll want to keep an eye on NPOV/FAQ for pseudoscience issues, and oh, you might want to keep an eye on Mackan79: He's taken to deleting the majority view from the Expelled article.

FM, it may have come time to do something about that editor. He is basically a reincarnation of Moulton, only with a different ID proponent. He has literally caused disruption on every single article he has edited with regards to Marks plus he has a serious COI that needs to be addressed. Should I take this to ANI for a report?

Richard Sternberg controversy
I see you made changes to the Richard Sternberg page, removing the contributions shown here:. Can you please provide an explanation for removing this information from the paragraph? Especially on a subject so controversial, it's important to articulate information in as neutral a fashion as possible. The previous version only presented a single side of the controversy, biased against R. Sternberg in the initial paragraph. Presenting Sternberg's position on the issue (with references) is not only more informative for the reader but also maintains an accurate account of the controversy itself.

Tony Zirkle userfication

Expelled POV
I am trying to figure out why you removed the POV notification I added to the Expelled article yesterday. The article reads like an enormous, exquisitely detailed and interlinked refutation of the film. It doesn't present any material in the film except for the purpose of debunking it.

Not having seen the movie, I wanted to know if it was worth watching, but the article postively exudes POV. I didn't find out most of what I wanted to know, even after reading a few thousand words. It's just too long and too negative. keno (talk) 00:27, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Tag
Felonious, neither of the sources that are cited for the first half of the sentence provide any verification for the second half which states: '... the list is intended to lend support to other Discovery Institute campaigns, such as "Teach the Controversy", "Critical Analysis of Evolution", "Free Speech on Evolution", and "Stand Up For Science"'. Neither of those sources even mentions this list, so they certainly could not be used to source the claim that the list is "intended" for such and such purpose. Now, I fully believe this claim, but it still needs to be cited. I'm looking for an adequate citation, but without one the tag must remain.PelleSmith (talk) 03:34, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Pleanty of other sources do. Either you're promoting the Discovery Institute's obfucation line or you're clueless on the subject. Which is it? FeloniousMonk (talk) 03:46, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Well its not the former since I believe the claim to be true ... that the DI is using the petition to further the promotion of ID. To your second point I suggest instead of calling other people clueless you help the project and just provide the sources.  Clearly in my clueless naivete I cannot find a source to back the assertion that I believe is true, but you probably can, given how not clueless you are.  So please do.  Thanks.PelleSmith (talk) 04:03, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * The source you have found does not substantiate either the disputed claim at the Picard page, that the petition promotes ID, or even the non-disputed claim that I have asked for sourcing for at the petition page, that the DI uses the petition in its campaigns. Would you care to explain what exactly you think this source tells us?PelleSmith (talk) 04:15, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

 * To anyone objective it does. But since you insist, I'll add another. I've literally a dozen more. You can reject them one by one and we'll see how this ends up. FeloniousMonk (talk) 04:19, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you for providing a source that actually connects the petition to "other campaigns." Unfortunately this is of no help to us at the Picard page where we need a source that connects the use of the petition directly to the promotion of ID, something not mentioned in the second source at all.  Providing such a source would be of great help.  If you have one, or two, or ten please do post directly to the talk page there.  As I said it would be a very big help. Thanks.PelleSmith (talk) 04:21, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Two primary sources have been provided supporting the content and saying the same thing, you have simply just rejected them. I can keep adding sources and you can continue rejecting them. Fine by me. FeloniousMonk (talk) 04:32, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * You are talking about the Picard page I assume. Neither of your sources say what you want them to.  In fact, the one you just added states emphatically that "challenges to Darwinian evolution are not the same as proposed solutions, such as the scientific theory of intelligent design."  Oddly you have just strengthened the opposition to the point you are trying to prove by showing that the DI itself does not conflate those who challenge Darwinian evolution (e.g. those who signed a petition to that effect) with those who support intelligent design.PelleSmith (talk) 04:48, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * So you say, the person who thinks partisan primary sources are to be taken at face value and ignores Verifiability... FeloniousMonk (talk) 05:39, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Re:Evidence of Meatpuppetry
I admit, I edited for Moulton. However, 1)I did not make changes word-for-word, but close to it, 2)I support Moulton's unbanning and have edited Wikipedia under another account, 3)I support Moulton's rewording of the text, and 4)Meatpuppeteering is when an editor is recruited, not when a person says something should be done and an editor feels it's the right choice and does it. I don't see what's wrong with Moulton's proposal. Instead of attacking me for agreeing with his proposal, why don't you offer some constructive criticism on the proposal itself. --PlatanusOccidentalis (talk) 19:13, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

 * The manner in which you said it sounded like a threat to me, or else I wouldn't have brought it up with you. "Stop it or you will be blocked" is not a threat. "I'mma make sure you won't make another incivil comment again!" is a threat. See the difference? Mike H. Fierce! 22:34, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Stop.
Stop trying to drag me into the dispute with the blocked user Moulton by labeling me a "meatpuppet" or "WR editor." It's completely false, a personal attack, and I had no interest in dragging this out further.  krimpet ✽  02:04, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

 * "That's right folks, I forgot to mention we re-programmed Krimpet a week or so ago and we are finally putting her to use." If you don't want to be seen as acting on behalf of a banned editor you shouldn't be making the exact edits at the exact article that a banned editor is calling for. And don't say you weren't aware of Moulton's requests, I've diffs showing you were. You involved yourself the moment you started editing the Picard article with the very edits Moulton was calling for. FeloniousMonk (talk) 04:50, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Someone mentioned the article in passing on IRC and I clicked on it - as a fellow woman in computing, her article piqued my interest - and I noticed it was a BLP mess and a COATRACK, so I made a couple tweaks to improve it. This is meatpuppetry? The "diffs" you claim to have are a canard. I was only tangentially aware that Moulton had his prints on the article on the past - I thought his ban was for creationist POV pushing in general. And as far as I can tell, Moulton when he was here was trying to rip out the whole section that I tweaked, not improve it. (And that random smartass quip on WR wasn't sanctioned or approved by me at all - "re-programmed?") I'm kindly asking you to stop dragging me back into this. I was glad to see that woman's BLP improved in the end, through whatever roundabout means it ended up taking, and I don't want to squabble more. But it seems like you're just trying to continue this dispute and seek a pound of my flesh. Don't.  krimpet ✽  05:16, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * If that's the story you want to stick to, then please, by all means go ahead. It's laughably improbable given your edits exactly match Moulton's requested edits verbatim and their precise and limited nature, but if that's what you want us to believe, it's your call. FeloniousMonk (talk) 05:37, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

May I know why the heck are you adding evidence to a RfC that closed almost 9 months ago? Please, if you have evidence that shows Moulton doing meatpuppetry, then use a proper forum, aka, one that is active and where sanctions can be taken. --Enric Naval (talk) 05:47, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I've included the recent evidence of Moulton engaging in meatpuppetry on the talk page of the RFC, not the RFC itself. Furthermore, doing so is established convention at Wikipedia, not without precedent, and well within Wikipedia policy. FeloniousMonk (talk) 06:02, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * But one of the reasons because User:Moulton was nominated for deletion was because it linked to evidence collected by one user, instead of just linking to "official" pages like RFCs, ANI threads and arb cases. What you are doing amounts to trying to run around the discussion at the MfD. You are adding your evidence right behind the "enough" section that User:Moulton links to, which has almost the same effect as linking directly to a page with evidence collected by you. Please remove that evidence and post it on a page on your userspace or post it at ANI. --Enric Naval (talk) 06:09, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * That's your impression of why it was nominated for deletion, there are others. You don't seem to have a firm grasp of how RFCs work or this situation; individuals compile all the evidence in an RFC, period. And editing RFCs is open to all, with the one caveat that you do not alter the comments of another. Since Moulton is already banned for disruptive editing, there's noting to bring up at AN/I. All there is for us to do now is compile any evidence of any further disruption he causes from offsite such as recruiting and directing meatpuppets, and keep it in a central location for any admin or editor seeking more detail can find it, and the right place for that is his RFC's talk page since some of the community is not comfortable with it on his talk page at the moment. I suggest you become better accquainted with the situation and the policies and conventions around dealing with banned editors and RFC before deleting the evidence presented there: That is the proper place for it as was suggested at the MFD. FeloniousMonk (talk) 06:27, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Notice that Random832 has blanked the page where the evidence was originally hosted as a courtesy, and note his comment on wheter the evidence should be posted anywhere . According to a comment by Krimpet, and older version of the page being discussed appears to have evidence against him. From context, it appears to be the same evidence that Krimpet is removing from the RfC. I'll just make a comment on the MfD for others with more knowledge of RfCs to review this matter. I think that adding the information there after removing it from the user page could not be totally correct, and I would like other people to take a look. --Enric Naval (talk) 06:51, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, I won't do the comment at MfD after seeing Fill's comment. If he thinks that it's ok, then that's enough for me Ah, I'm not sure, I'll sleep on it. I still think that you should ask an uninvolved admin to review this. --Enric Naval (talk) 06:55, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * At the end I decided to add myself to the list . Since the MfD is closed, I went to bitch complain to ANI . Notice that I later changed the section headings for technical reasons unrelated to the rest of the issue --Enric Naval (talk) 11:01, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

AIDS denialism
Would you mind commenting on the talk page what "undue weight issues" lead you to revert my change (which was also accompanied on the talk page by a thorough analysis of the section and its sources)? This section has been the subject of discussion and a turtle-paced edit war for well over a year, and undue weight has in fact been a point for keeping it out.

More AIDS "denialism"
Excuse me. Could this edit by MastCell  be regarded as "disruptive editing" per Requests_for_arbitration/Hkelkar

If your answer is negative, could you please explain me why it is not?.

There´s no consensus at the talk page (we are tied 3 to 3), I am providing reasons for that text being in the article and trying to rework the text to reach consensus  and then MastCell appears like a Deus ex machina and with no comment at the talk page just deletes again a new re-worked (and very shortened) version of the stuff he deleted in 2007.

Maybe it is out of my naiveté, but I thought this kind of edits were frowned upon here.

And no, this is not an issue of "denialists" versus "mainstreamers". This user summarized very well why "denialist" views should be detailed and refuted

Thank you for your attention Randroide (talk) 20:26, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

 * There's no voting for content. It either is acceptable or not.  MastCell is one of the best editors of medical articles out there, so I doubt you'll get support here or anywhere else.   Orange Marlin  Talk• Contributions 20:42, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Um, no, it's not disruptive. Read WP:NPOV: "NPOV says that the article should fairly represent all significant viewpoints that have been published by a reliable source, and should do so in proportion to the prominence of each. Now an important qualification: Articles that compare views should not give minority views as much or as detailed a description as more popular views, and will generally not include tiny-minority views at all." FeloniousMonk (talk) 05:07, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

 * THen, I do not understand why you restored that content

 * The article compares no views. The article is about a minority view, that of the "denialists". Anyway, if you think that´s a good edit, that´s more feedback for me. Thank you. Randroide (talk) 07:46, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Article in need of NPOV seeing-to
I happened across the article on Charles Hodge (whilst aimlessly following links from the William Demski page). Just one quick read-through of the contents revealed some alarming weasel words, and on giving it a more thorough looking-at, I thought I'd better add my concerns re its considerably NPOV stance onto the Talk Page - which I see has not been added to for over 2 years! I was only vaguely aware of the ID Wikiproject so followed the links, saw your name (which I recognized from just 'around') and hope you'll be able to help out. I'm probably not the best person to take this on but am prepared to do what I can. This article appears to have remained under radar for a very long time and I hope it can now be sorted. Thanks. Plutonium27 (talk) 14:15, 27 June 2008 (UTC) Addenda - Just checked out the History. Most of the article's text was from a 1914 work (this is mentioned in a line at the end of the article), added to the orignal version of the article (just a basic biog framework re Princeton) by User:Flex in Spring 2005. The Edit Summary noted it needed POV checking. This seems not to have been done. A short para (re slavery) was added shortly afterwards. Since then, the edits have been confined to several Category shuffles/additions and the like, some recent vandalism of the common-or-garden insertion of a line or two pertaining to the subjects sexual abilities - but no major revisions to the text else.

New policy proposal and draft help
Scientific standards

I have drafted a new proposal and would like help in clarifying, adjusting, adapting, and improving it. It is based on five years of work here at Wikipedia (not always the prettiest, I might add). I think it summarizes the opinions of a great majority of editors as to how to handle scientific situations. This proposal serves as a nexus between WP:NPOV and WP:RS for cases where we are dealing with observable reality. It is needed because there are a lot of editors who don't seem to understand what entails best-practices when writing a reliable reference work about observable reality. I don't pretend that this version is perfect, and would appreciate any and all additions, suggestions people may have for getting to some well-regarded scientific standards.

Note that these standards would apply only when discussing matters directly related to observable reality. These standards are inspired in part by WP:SPOV but avoid some of the major pitfalls of that particular proposal. In particular, the idea that SPOV even exists is a real problem. However, I think it is undeniable that we should have some standards for writing about scientific topics.

See also WP:SCI for another failed proposal that dovetails with this one. I hope this particular proposal is more in-line with the hole I see in policy/guidelines for dealing with these situations.

Notability of Leadership University (web portal)
A tag has been placed on Leadership University (web portal) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. HrafnTalkStalk 13:26, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

wp:NPOV
For a great many years there has been an almost-loophole at this policy "cite facts, including facts about opinions, but not opinions themselves." I have always interpreted this to mean that a verifiable account of someone's view is encyclopedic. However, some people read this to mean that Wikipedia should emphasize facts, not opinions. And opinions = views. I think this line of thinking leads to a contradiction in the policy (that we must include all significant views from reliable sources) and undermines the dictum, "verifiability, not truth."

The problem is, there is a user, user:Zaereth who states excplicitly on his user page that he is opposed to our NPOV policy and wishes to change it. And he has been trying to edit the "loophole" I mention above to mean that we should strive to present the truth. He has teamed up with user:QuackGuru who is claiming that there is another policy called "state facts accurately" which he believes means that certain claims do not have to be attributable to any source (since they are "facts" - i.e. a total subversion of "verifiability, not truth."

Currently, the discussion is happening on the bottommost sections of the talk page (there was a convenience break). I think the discussion really could benefit from the input of experienced editors with real institutional memory and I am asking that you consider participating in this discussion until this issue at NPOV is satisfactorally resolved.

Citation clean up at Climate change denial
I'm trying to clean up some issues with Climate change denial. One of the issues relates to sources. I noticed some footnotes link to Wikipedia, which is not acceptable. Your editincluded several sources, many of which look fine. I'm specifically referring to the source with the title "Timeline, Climate Change and its Naysayers". The url you added may have been fine at the time, but someone changed it later, possibly because it no longer worked. I checked, and it doesn't go to the article in question, nor have I been able to find the original article.

As you were the editor to add this, I assume you have special interest in keeping this link. I plan to post at Talk:Climate change denial about this and other issues, with the expectation that we need to find a good citation or remove the reference.

Vocational Certificate of Education

Vocational Certificate of Education, usually shortened VCE or Vocational A-Level or AVCE, was a vocational qualification that used to be available in further education colleges and sixth forms in the United Kingdom.

Subjects and assessment
VCEs were available in many subjects including Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Health and Social Care, Hospitality and Management, Leisure and Recreation, Travel and Tourism and Business. Some students preferred the vocational system due to its practical 'hands-on' nature.

The qualification was created in September 2000 to replace the Advanced GNVQ, with the main change being that the marking system was altered from the three level Distinction, Merit and Pass system to A–E grading, bringing the AVCE into line with A-Levels. The AVCE was intended to lead on to higher education or employment and was made up of modules, each covering different aspects of the subject. Some of these modules overlapped and some institutions chose to merge their content. Students had to complete a set number of modules in order to qualify for an AVCE:

 * AVCE Double Award - 12 units (worth two A-levels)
 * AVCE Single Award - 6 units (worth one A-level)
 * ASVCE - 3 units (worth one AS-level)

Assessment was by a mixture of continuous assessment, based on a portfolio of evidence, and externally set and marked examinations.

Withdrawal
The regulatory body, the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA), along with Welsh equivalent ACCAC, decided in June 2004 to withdraw the Advanced VCE, with the final candidates starting in September 2004. They created and piloted an "Applied GCE (AGCE)" qualification to replace the AVCE. Edexcel withdrew AVCE ICT in June 2006 but students were able to re-submit coursework until November 2006 and could re-sit exams until January 2007. The GNVQ is still currently available in two forms – Foundation and Intermediate levels – which both work up to the Advanced level. This was withdrawn in 2007. The decision to withdraw the qualification proved unpopular.
