Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! If you ave anything to ask just post a question in my talk page. Thanks for being alert on the vandalism! And have fun! Cheers, Muriel 09:24, 11 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Hi. American is the standard way to refer to Americans on Wikipedia. American is a different subject. RickK 03:04, 1 Dec 2003 (UTC) Thanks mate - i made a mistake for which i apologise.PMA 23:37, Dec 8, 2003 (UTC)

Hi PMA There is no need to apologize, You were unaware, It's not a big deal. Misterrick 06:30, Dec 16,2003 (UTC).

Hi. Please have a quick look at this. Gonorrhoea is the British (original) spelling, and Gonorrhea is the US spelling. I suggest we keep it at Gonorrhoea, because that is where the better article was developed. --snoyes 15:00, 12 Dec 2003 (UTC)
 * Oh, also: When moving a page in the fashion that you did, it is best to use the "move page" function, as that keeps the edit history of the article and therefore gives the correct credits to the authors. --snoyes 15:01, 12 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Hi. It's the UK spelling. You checked in a US dictionary. Thanks. Secretlondon 15:02, Dec 12, 2003 (UTC)

Thank you Secretlondon for the clarification. Misterrick, 06:25, Dec 16, 2003 (UTC)

See Talk:Joseph Stalin and let's discuss there. --Jia ng 01:19, 11 Jan 2004 (UTC)

I don't think this guy is using an anonymiser - just some regular dialup ISP. A really good place to look up IPs is, btw. The trouble with dialups is that you block one and they just disconnect and reconnect and usually get a new address. Tim recently blocked a whole netblock to try to keep out a persistent baddie, and inadvertently blocked at least one registered user (IP blocks block everyone, not just anons). There really isn't an easy technical solution to these guys, right now. -- Finlay McWalter 03:24, 22 Jan 2004 (UTC)

 * Oh, I should add - don't let losers like this get you down. We have more patience than they do, so we always prevail in the end. I know I may seem to have a somewhat lessez-faire attitude toward vandals, but it's mostly that I don't let them annoy me. My only complaint is that there doesn't seem to be a "nonchalantly blows nail varnish dry" emoticon, dammit. -- Finlay McWalter 03:37, 22 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Hi, your adminship vote seemed unlikely to pass, so I moved it here. Pakaran. 03:40, 7 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Misterrick
I would like have the opportunity to serve the Wikipedia community on a higher level. I have made many contributions and have proved myself to be reliable, I am on and monitor the Wikipedia site on a regular basis and I get along with other Wikipedia users including many of the admins. In my contributions you will see that I have kept my composure when pages that had contributed to were vandalized, Either I or another Wiki user reverted the page back to it's original text without any outbursts or anger on my part. I have also created a few new Wikipedia article which I thought would be in the interest of the Wiki community. I would also keep my Internet Relay Chat program open and set to the #wikipedia channel on the freenode.net server in the event that a user (including admins and newbies) need to contact me posthaste. Misterrick, 01 February 2004, 06:45 (UTC).

 * 200 edits? are you sure about that it seem like I've done a lot more edits then that and in response to posts that I have too little experience, I have to say that I know almost ever in and out on how to work the Wikipedia editing tools and I've made significant contributions to this site and I don't understand why you feel that I am too inexperienced and unlike previous attempts I will not withdraw my application because I feel strongly that I can be an asset to the Wikipedia website as an Administrator.

 * As I write this, you've made exactly 205 edits. →Raul654 09:26, Feb 1, 2004 (UTC)
 * Support. Two hundred edits is enough for us to form an idea of what sort of contributor you are. In particular, how you handle the current conflict -- over whether you are granted sysop rights -- will rapidly clarify the sort of admin you will be in the future. I'm going to press the "promote" button, if I can find my electronic remote (wait, it's here in my pocket -- no, that's for my car... I'll be back). --Uncle Ed 14:53, 3 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Ritchie Valens - good catch on the name, of course his real name is Richard Valenzuela. The plane took off from Mason City airport and crashed 5.5 miles from Clear Lake, not sure where that is in relation to Mason City Bob Palin 05:32, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC) Did some more research and on this page http://www.rockabillyhall.com/RitchieValens.html there is a photo of asigned poster where he signed without the 't' in Ritchie!

With regard to the individual Las Vegas officeholders' websites in the article on Las Vegas, Nevada, I've made a further suggestion on the Talk page there, toward providing the information without having so many external links. JamesMLane 06:19, 4 May 2004 (UTC)

don't fuck with me pal i'll rip your fucking head off if you keep making up bullshit pages.

67.15.42.16
I think your "on the verge of resigning my Wikipedia account" comment on Vandalism in progress shows that you're not ready for adminship. If you can't handle a single foul-mouthed anonymous jerk calling you names, you shouldn't be given the power to ban and delete.

That said, you're a real contributor, and this guy's a $@!* vandal. I'm quite disappointed that the admins who preoccupy themselves with such things haven't instituted a longer block. If he starts making trouble again after RickK's 24-hour block expires, I'm going to impose a longer one myself. -- Cyrius|&#9998 08:35, May 19, 2004 (UTC)

 * Actually when I said that I was on the verge of resigning my Wikipedia account because of this a**hole it was at a moment of anger to be honest I really never had any intention of resigning. As far as handling foul-mouthed anonymous jerks like 67.15.42.16 admittedly I let them push my buttons which I shouldn't have let happen. Misterrick 15:31, 19 May 2004 (UTC)

 * Good. I'd hate to see Wikipedia lose an actual contributor over an anonymous vandal. I've got his normal targets on my watchlist, and his contribs page bookmarked. Given his past history, it'll probably be a few days before he starts acting up again. But he's being watched. -- Cyrius|&#9998 18:22, May 19, 2004 (UTC)

Vegas casinos
Some time ago I commented that we ought to have an article on every major casino. I see that you've filled in many of the gaps -- good work! Inspired by your example, I got around to doing New York-New York Hotel & Casino. In that article I linked to two others that didn't yet exist and needed disambiguation -- Excalibur (also the sword) and MGM Grand (also the former name of MGM Mirage). You seemed to be using a "(Las Vegas)" ending rather than "(hotel-casino)" or some such, so I followed your pattern. Since then, however, someone else did the MGM Grand article without using the parens, so I changed the New York-New York link. The point of all this is that, if you happen to do the Excalibur, the existing link is to Excalibur (Las Vegas). There's a cross-reference on the Excalibur page, which of course is about the sword.

Oscar Goodman
Looks like you noticed our old friend User:67.15.42.16 is back. I removed Dysprosia's 24 hour ban and put a 30 day ban in effect. -- Cyrius|✎ 02:38, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Arbcom questions
'''Voting for 2 members of the Wikipedia Arbitration Committee is now open. The main rule of this election is you MUST be a member of Wikipedia for a minimum of 3 month to cast a vote. If you qualify to vote then you may Click Here to cast your vote'''.

A quick - OK, actually, probably a long question regarding your candidacy for the arbcom. How do you think you would have ruled/would rule in the following cases?

 * Requests for arbitration/Irismeister 2
 * Requests for arbitration/Mr-Natural-Health
 * Requests for arbitration/Wik2
 * Requests for arbitration/Paul Vogel
 * Requests for arbitration/Mav v. 168
 * Requests for arbitration/JRR Trollkien
 * Requests for arbitration/Cantus
 * Requests for arbitration/ChrisO and Levzur

Thanks very much. Snowspinner 17:43, Aug 2, 2004 (UTC)

In response to your questions about my rulings if I were elected an arbitrator here is what I would do with the following:

1) In regards to Irismeister after reviewing the evidence of this case I find that since they have a history of making personal attacks and rude behaviour I would vote for a 1 year suspension of their posting privileges with the proviso that in 6 months following the initial suspension a review be made on whether the ban should be continued in full or limited privileges be reinstated with an additional proviso that if they are partly reinstated that if there is any further misbehavior on their part that they will be suspended indefinitely.

2) In regards to Mr-Natural-Health after reviewing the evidence of this case I find that this person should have their posting privileges indefinitely suspended because they have no regards for the opinions or the POV of other Wikipedia users and from what I have reviewed they can become very combative if another user posts an opinion or information in an article that is contrary to their opinion.

3) In regards to Wik2 after reviewing the evidence of this case I find that Wik2 is a hostile combatant on Wikipedia because they not only are they insistent on spreading they own opinion but not allowing other Wikipedia user to express their opinions, Further when they have had their Wikipedia account suspended they continued to misbehave by using sock accounts or posting anonymously in direct violation of Wikipedia policies. So an indefinite suspension of posting privileges until such time as they can prove that they are/will be a productive member of the Wikipedia community.

4) In regards to Paul Vogel after reviewing the evidence of this case I find that yes he did commit acts in violation of Wikipedia policies but instead of suspending him for a period of one year inclusively it should have been with the proviso that in 6 months following the initial suspension a review be made on whether the ban should be continued in full or limited privileges be reinstated with an additional proviso that if they are partly reinstated that if there is any further misbehavior on their part that they will be suspended indefinitely.

5) In regards to 168 after reviewing the evidence of this case I found that 168 did abuse his privileges as a Wikipedia Administrator because he reverted and protected pages without proper reason and continuously deleting a particular Wikipedia page. My decision would be to permanently deop them as an Administrator with no chance of being reinstated, A 1 month suspension with the proviso that if there is any further misbehavior on their part that they will be suspended indefinitely.

6) In regards to JRR Trollkien after reviewing the evidence of this case I found they are in a sense all definitions of an Internet troll. They have been extremely disruptive to the process of Wikipedia and as such they should have their Wikipedia account suspended for an indefinite period of time until they can prove that they are/will be a productive member of the Wikipedia community.

7) In regards to Cantus after reviewing the evidence of this case I found they did violate the three revert policy and that they were using sock puppets to make revenge revisions therefore I would vote for a 6 month suspension with a review in 3 months and the proviso that if there is any further misbehavior on their part that they will be suspended indefinitely.

8) In regards to Levzur after reviewing the evidence of this case I found that they engaged in revision wars and changed information on a Wikipedia page without leaving a proper comment and make changes anonymously including deletion of context with their own POV so therefore they should be suspended for a period of no more then 1 month and a proviso that in 6 months following the initial suspension a review be made on whether the ban should be continued in full or limited privileges be reinstated with an additional proviso that if they are partly reinstated that if there is any further misbehavior on their part that they will be suspended indefinitely.

Thanks for participating in the ArbCom elections. Danny 00:51, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Hi. They are posted on the Recent Changes page. Thanks. Danny 19:47, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I noticed you've added some info about April to my page. Thank you for doing so. April has a link to my site on her's and I have one to her site on mine. She's a great sister (the half part is a mere technicality) and I had intended to add a link as well but, I wanted to be certain that the staff would have no objection. As I'm certain you're already aware, she has a radio show on KABC in the Los Angeles market and a radio advertising company called Radio Savant Productions. Thanks again for your help and as for the Arbitration Committee, you certainly have my support! Sincerely, Stacy Paul Winchell

Crate training

Crate training is the process of training a pet to tolerate confinement in a dog crate or cage. Crate advocates often claim that dogs are "den-dwelling" animals and that a crate can become a "den" substitute and a familiar and safe location for the pet. Most puppies can eventually tolerate crate training if it is introduced properly. The initial stress from being confined can give way to "increased feelings of security, safety, and comfort" after repeated exposure to the crate. Long-term or excessive crate confinement "may lead to emotional and behavioral deterioration over time." On the other hand, if properly done, crate training can play a major role in housebreaking a dog as fast as possible. Confining a dog in a crate or cage restricts its movement and freedom, If crate training is not taken seriously, the dog may start soiling around the house.

Rationale
Proponents of crate training argue that dogs are den animals and that the crate acts as a substitute for a den. While this is a widely held belief, there is little evidence to support it. Borchelt (1984) states:

 * The average dog book refers to dogs as "den dwelling" animals and presumes that confining imparts a feeling of security to a puppy. Dogs, in fact, are not den dwelling animals, although in a variety of canids the dam will construct a nest (often underground) for the pups. The nest is a defense against predators and protection against inclement weather. The pups use it as a "home base" from which they explore, investigate and play. There is no door on the den which encloses the pups for many hours.

Nevertheless, a dog can learn to tolerate confinement in a crate and accept it as a place of comfort and safety. The Humane Society of America recommends crate training to create a place of security and comfort for a dog, while cautioning that it is not the best solution to animal behavior problems.

Crate training may also reduce stress and anxiety in a dog that later requires confinement in a crate when visiting a vet, when traveling, during recuperation from an injury, and when confinement is necessary to protect your dog while you are away for short periods of time.

Crate selection
It is important to pick a crate that is the correct size for the pet and is appropriate for its purpose. Often larger crates come with some sort of divider so that a crate can grow with the pet. The correct size for a crate is just enough room for the animal to stand up without hitting their head, lay down and stretch out their paws and to turn around unimpeded. When using a crate in the home, make sure the crate is placed in a location that is comfortable. Avoid drafty areas near doors or windows, areas in the direct sunlight (which may become excessively hot), or areas adjacent to a radiator or heat source.

A crate for use at home can be larger than one used for travel. Crates used for international transport should adhere to international regulations stipulated by IATA. If the crate is too big the pet will be able to use one end for rest and sleep while using the other as a toilet, which will undermine one of the purposes of crate training.

A dog's natural instinct is to relieve themselves outside of the area in which they eat and sleep. So if a crate is small enough that they cannot possibly defecate while having enough room to sleep well away from it, a dog will 'hold it' as long as they possibly can. It is this instinct that facilitates using a crate as an aid for house training.

During air travel, an oversized cage does not permit the pet to use the sides easily as a brace during turbulence. Likewise, crates that are too small pose a health risk by restricting and preventing proper air flow and ventilation. This is of particular concern to domestic pets of a brachycephalic (short-headed) breed where the requirement is to allow extra room due to the high incidence of death in these pets during transport. Due to their shortened airways and limited ability to cool themselves through panting, overheating while traveling poses a risk to the health of such breeds.

Training
When crate training, it is important to use a training approach that is recommended by a reputable vet, trainer, breeder or a trusted training book.

Crate training is often practiced with new puppies as a method of house-training. Puppies naturally do not want to dirty the place where they sleep, so they will try as much as possible to hold it while they are in their crate. Of course, young puppies can not control their bladders for long: about one hour for every month of age. Owners of young dogs will have to continue to take the puppy outside frequently. The crate is the only space in the entire house that truly belongs to the dog, and if used appropriately, will become a safe haven for years to come.

Locking the dog in a crate and letting it whine, bark and attempt to escape is common but such attempts to introduce crate training may cause a negative association with crating. The dog should become slowly accustomed to the crate. This can involve making a crate an inviting place by placing small familiar toys inside, moving the pet bed into crate, leaving unwashed items of the owner's clothing inside, rewarding pets for entering the crate and remaining inside, incorporating the crate as part of play, feeding the pet in the crate, allowing the pet to explore and use the crate until it is no longer intimidating, and eventually building to the pet sleeping in the crate overnight.

Part of proper crate or cage training requires that the pet owner observe calm and relaxed behavior around the crate. The pet will attribute any emotional responses such as raised voices or other nervous behaviors to the foreign object in their normal environment. It is important for the owner not to create any negative associations with the cage in order for the pet to accept the crate in a calm manner.

Adverse effects
Without proper conditioning, dogs may vocalize their distress and make efforts to escape the crates. Crating suppresses the dog's behavior, removes the dog's freedom of movement and is a negative punishment (removal of reward) under operant conditioning. Dogs who do not react well to negative punishment may find crating highly stressful. Long term or excessive crate confinement "may lead to emotional and behavioral deterioration over time." To the extent that crating reduces the amount of exposure to different environmental and social situations, it can make dogs more reactive (fearful or aggressive) or intolerant of novel situations. Crating "may significantly exacerbate the distress and emotional reactivity associated with separation distress". Behavioral problems that compels owners to crate train in the first place, may be exacerbated by the negative effects of crating.

A dog may form a strong attachment to the crate eventually, feeling comfort and safety, after the initial feeling of distress and vulnerability. One dog behaviorist has compared this behavioral effect to Stockholm syndrome. Dogs that are trained to sleep in a crate, when allowed to sleep in a bedroom, can show signs consistent with that of separation distress, suggesting that dogs may love their crate "perhaps in some cases more than they love the owner." This bond with the crate may interfere with the human-animal bond and exacerbate bond-related behavior problems such as separation distress and owner-directed aggression.

Steven Lindsay in Handbook of Applied Dog Behavior and Training states that while "the role of crate confinement in the etiology of behavior problems has not been scientifically established [...] empirical impressions and logic dictate that it probably plays an important role in the development or exacerbation of many adjustment problems." He argues that "the widespread practice of routinely caging a dog at night and then again during the day for periods totaling 16 to 18 hours (or more) is an extremely problematic practice that should not be condoned or encouraged, because it probably underlies the development of many adjustment problems, including aggression." The purpose of crate training, he says, "should be to get the dog out of the crate as soon as possible, and to use the crate as little as possible in the service of training and space-management objectives."

Legislation
In Sweden, regulations forbid keeping dogs in cages or other enclosures below a certain size. Exceptions are made for some situations, such as during travels or at dog shows/trials. Even then, the dogs have to be walked every two hours or three hours. The size required for an enclosure to be exempt from such regulations starts at 2 m2—about the area of a single/twin mattress—for a small dog and up to 5.5 m2 for a large dog. Similar regulations exist in Finland.

Spain forbids the practice as well, as it is considered animal cruelty by its law of animal protection and well-being like we can see on the prohibition to "Use any gadget, mechanism or utensil intended to limit or impede their mobility except by veterinary prescription taking into account their well-being." as well as the mandatory to "Educate and handle the animal with methods that do not cause suffering or mistreatment of the animal, nor cause states of anxiety or fear."

Lennon–McCartney

Lennon–McCartney was the songwriting partnership between English musicians John Lennon (1940 - 1980) and Paul McCartney (born 1942) of the Beatles. It is widely considered one of the greatest, best known and most successful musical collaborations ever by records sold, with the Beatles selling over 600 million records worldwide. Between 5 October 1962 and 8 May 1970, the partnership published approximately 180 jointly credited songs, of which the vast majority were recorded by the Beatles, forming the bulk of their catalogue.

Unlike many songwriting partnerships that comprise a separate lyricist and composer, such as George and Ira Gershwin, Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, or Elton John and Bernie Taupin, both Lennon and McCartney wrote lyrics and music. Sometimes, especially early on, they would collaborate extensively when writing songs, working "eyeball to eyeball" as Lennon phrased it. During the latter half of their partnership, it became more common for either of them to write most of a song on their own with minimal input from the other, and sometimes none at all. By an agreement made before the Beatles became famous, Lennon and McCartney were credited equally with songs that either one of them wrote while their partnership lasted.

Lennon–McCartney compositions have been the subject of numerous cover versions. According to Guinness World Records, "Yesterday" has been recorded by more musicians than any other song.

Meeting
Although McCartney had previously seen and noticed Lennon in the local area without knowing who he was, the pair first met on 6 July 1957, at a local church fête, where 16-year-old Lennon was playing with his skiffle group the Quarrymen. The 15-year-old McCartney, brought along by a mutual friend, Ivan Vaughan, impressed Lennon with his ability on the guitar and his version of Eddie Cochran's "Twenty Flight Rock". Soon afterwards, Lennon asked McCartney if he would join the Quarrymen; McCartney accepted. The duo's first musical idols were the Everly Brothers, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, and Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, and they learned many of their songs and imitated their sound. Their first compositions were written at McCartney's home (20 Forthlin Road), at Lennon's aunt Mimi's house (251 Menlove Avenue), or at the Liverpool Institute. They often invited friends—including George Harrison, Nigel Walley, Barbara Baker, and Lennon's art school colleagues—to listen to performances of their new songs. The first song that Lennon and McCartney wrote together, according to Mark Lewisohn, was Too Bad About Sorrows.

Writing chemistry
Lennon said the main intention of the Beatles' music was to communicate, and that, to this effect, he and McCartney had a shared purpose. Author David Rowley points out that at least half of all Lennon–McCartney lyrics have the words "you" and/or "your" in the first line. In Lennon's 1980 Playboy interview, he said of the partnership: "[Paul] provided a lightness, an optimism, while I would always go for the sadness, the discords, the bluesy notes. There was a period when I thought I didn't write melodies, that Paul wrote those and I just wrote straight, shouting rock 'n' roll. But, of course, when I think of some of my own songs—"In My Life", or some of the early stuff, "This Boy"—I was writing melody with the best of them."

Historian Todd Compton has noted that there is some truth to Lennon's statement regarding McCartney's optimism. However, it does not tell the whole story, as some of McCartney's most characteristic songs are tragic, or express themes of isolation, such as "Yesterday", "She's Leaving Home", "Eleanor Rigby" or "For No One".

Although Lennon and McCartney often wrote independently—and many Beatles songs are primarily the work of one or the other—it was rare that a song would be completed without some input from both writers. In many instances, one writer would sketch an idea or a song fragment and take it to the other to finish or improve; in some cases, two incomplete songs or song ideas that each had worked on individually would be combined into a complete song. Often one of the pair would add a middle eight or bridge section to the other's verse and chorus. George Martin attributed the high quality of their songwriting to the friendly rivalry between the two. This approach of the Lennon–McCartney songwriting team—with elements of competitiveness and mutual inspiration as well as straightforward collaboration and creative merging of musical ideas—is often cited as a key reason for the Beatles' innovation and popular success.

As time went on, the songs increasingly became the work of one writer or the other, often with the partner offering up only a few words or an alternative chord. "A Day in the Life" is a well-known example of a later Beatles song that includes substantial contributions by both Lennon and McCartney, where a separate song fragment by McCartney ("Woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head ...") was used to flesh out the middle of Lennon's composition ("I read the news today, oh boy ..."). "Hey Jude" is another example of a later McCartney song that had input from Lennon: while auditioning the song for Lennon, when McCartney came to the lyric "the movement you need is on your shoulder", McCartney assured Lennon that he would change the line—which McCartney felt was nonsensical—as soon as he could come up with a better lyric. Lennon advised McCartney to leave that line alone, saying it was one of the strongest in the song.

Though Lennon and McCartney's collaborative efforts decreased in later years, they continued to influence one another. As Lennon stated in 1969, "We write how we write now because of each other. Paul was there for five or ten years, and I wouldn't write like I write now if it weren't for Paul, and he wouldn't write like he does if it weren't for me."

Joint credit
When McCartney and Lennon met as teenagers and began writing songs together, they agreed that all songs written by them (whether individually or jointly) should be credited to both of them. The precise date of the agreement is unknown; however, Lennon spoke in 1980 of an informal agreement between him and McCartney made "when [they] were fifteen or sixteen". Two songs written (primarily by Lennon) in 1957, "Hello Little Girl" and "One After 909", were credited to the partnership when published in the following decade. The earliest Beatles recording credited to Lennon–McCartney to be officially released is "You'll Be Mine", recorded at home in 1960 and included on Anthology 1 35 years later.

Some other compositions from the band's early years are not credited to the partnership. "In Spite of All the Danger", a 1958 composition that the band (then The Quarrymen) paid to record to disc, is attributed to McCartney and George Harrison. "Cayenne", recorded at the same time as "You'll Be Mine", is a solo McCartney composition. "Cry for a Shadow", an instrumental recorded during the Beatles' sessions with Tony Sheridan in June 1961 (one of the only full instrumentals the group recorded), was written by Harrison and Lennon.

By 1962, the joint credit agreement was in effect. From the time of the Beatles' A&R Decca audition in January that year, until Lennon's announcement in September 1969 that he was leaving the band, virtually all songs by McCartney or Lennon were published with joint credit, although, on a few of their first releases, the order was reversed (see below). The only other exceptions were a handful of the McCartney compositions released by other musicians (viz. "Woman" by Peter and Gordon in 1966 (McCartney using Bernard Webb as a pseudonym), "Cat Call" by Chris Barber in 1967, and "Penina" by Carlos Mendes in 1969). Lennon kept the joint credit for "Give Peace a Chance", his first single with the Plastic Ono Band.

After the partnership had ended, Lennon and McCartney each gave various accounts of their individual contribution to each jointly credited song, and sometimes claimed full authorship. Often their memories of collaboration differed, and often their own early and late interviews are in conflict. In 1972, Lennon offered Hit Parader a list of Beatles songs with comments regarding his and McCartney's contributions to each song. In his response to the article at the time, McCartney disputed only one of Lennon's entries.

 * "Help!" (1965)
 * Lennon described the song as co-written in 1965 interviews. In late interviews, he claimed full authorship. McCartney's stated help was on the "countermelody", estimating the song as "70–30" to Lennon. In 1984, McCartney said "John and I wrote it at his house in Weybridge for the film."

 * "Ticket to Ride" (1965)
 * In 1965, Lennon claimed that the song was "three-quarters mine and Paul changed it a bit. He said let's alter the tune." However, in 1980, Lennon said that McCartney's contribution was limited to "the way Ringo played the drums". In Many Years from Now, McCartney said "we sat down and wrote it together ... give him 60 percent of it."

 * "In My Life" (1965)
 * Lennon's entry for "In My Life" was the only one that McCartney disputed in his response to the Hit Parader article. Lennon said that McCartney helped only with "the middle eight" of the song. McCartney said that he wrote the entire melody, taking inspiration from Smokey Robinson songs.

 * "Eleanor Rigby" (1966)
 * In the 1997 biography Many Years from Now, McCartney recalled writing the music to "Eleanor Rigby" on a piano at Jane Asher's family home in Wimpole Street, and then playing it to Donovan, who supported that the song lacked any serious lyrics at that point. In 1972, Lennon said that he wrote 70 percent of the lyrics, but Pete Shotton, Lennon's childhood friend, remembered Lennon's contribution as being "absolutely nil". In 1985, McCartney said that Lennon had contributed "about half a line" to the song, but elsewhere (including a 1966 interview) he describes finishing the song with more substantial collaboration with Lennon. Harrison also contributed to this song. According to journalist Hunter Davies, the last verse was finished with all the Beatles giving suggestions in the studio.

 * "And Your Bird Can Sing" (1966)
 * McCartney claimed to have helped on the lyric, estimating the song as "80–20" to Lennon. In Hit Parader, Lennon did not acknowledge any contributions from McCartney.

 * "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite" (1967)
 * In Hit Parader, Lennon said he authored the song and took the words from a circus poster. He did not acknowledge McCartney as a contributor. In 2013, McCartney recalled spending an afternoon with Lennon writing the song based on the poster: "I read, occasionally, people say, 'Oh, John wrote that one.' I say, 'Wait a minute, what was that afternoon I spent with him, then, looking at this poster?'"

Lennon–McCartney vs McCartney–Lennon
In October 1962, the Beatles released their first single in the UK, "Love Me Do", credited to "Lennon–McCartney". However, on their next three releases the following year (the single "Please Please Me", the Please Please Me LP, and the single "From Me to You"), the credit was given as "McCartney–Lennon". According to McCartney, the decision to consistently order the credit with Lennon first was made at an April 1963 band meeting. With the "She Loves You" single, released in August 1963, the credit reverted to "Lennon–McCartney", and all subsequent official Beatles singles and albums list "Lennon–McCartney" (UK) or "John Lennon-Paul McCartney" (US) as the author of songs written by the two.

In 1976 McCartney's band Wings released their live album Wings over America with songwriting credits for five Beatles songs reversed to place McCartney's name first. Neither Lennon nor his wife Yoko Ono publicly objected to the flipped credits.

Many years after Lennon's death however, in the late 1990s, McCartney and Ono became involved in a dispute over the credit order. McCartney's 2002 live album, Back in the U.S., also used the credit "Paul McCartney and John Lennon" for all of the Beatles songs. When Ono objected to McCartney's request for the reversed credit to be used for the 1965 song "Yesterday", McCartney said that he and Lennon had agreed in the past that the credits could be reversed, if either of them wanted to, on any future releases. In 2003, he relented, saying, "I'm happy with the way it is and always has been. Lennon and McCartney is still the rock 'n' roll trademark I'm proud to be a part of – in the order it has always been."

An in-depth analysis of the legal issues was the subject of a 66-page article in the Pepperdine Law Review in 2006.

Subsequent Paul McCartney live albums Good Evening New York City (2009) and Amoeba Gig (2019) featured original credit to Lennon-McCartney songs. The new Paul McCartney and Wings live-in-the-studio album One Hand Clapping (2024) featured reverted credits to the Beatles songs.

Lennon–McCartney and others
A number of songs written primarily by the duo and recorded by the Beatles were credited as follows:
 * "What Goes On" (1965): Lennon–McCartney–Starkey
 * "12-Bar Original" (1965): Lennon–McCartney–Harrison–Starkey
 * "Flying" (1967): Harrison–Lennon–McCartney–Starkey
 * "Jessie's Dream" (1967): Lennon–McCartney–Harrison–Starkey
 * "Los Paranoias" (1968): Lennon–McCartney–Harrison–Starkey
 * "Dig It" (1969): Lennon–McCartney–Harrison–Starkey
 * "Maggie Mae" (1969): Arrangement by Lennon–McCartney–Harrison–Starkey
 * "Suzy Parker" (1969): Lennon–McCartney–Harrison–Starkey
 * "Free as a Bird" (1995): Original composition by John Lennon; Beatles version credited to John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr
 * "Christmas Time (Is Here Again)" (1995 edit of 1967 fan club version): Lennon–McCartney–Harrison–Starkey
 * "Now and Then" (2023): Original composition by John Lennon; Beatles version credited to John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr

The German-language versions of "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "She Loves You" were also credited to additional songwriters for assisting with the translation. "Komm, gib mir deine Hand" was credited to Lennon–McCartney–Nicolas–Hellmer, and "Sie liebt dich" was credited to Lennon–McCartney–Nicolas–Montague.

Cultural impact
Lennon–McCartney, as well as other British Invasion songwriters, inspired changes to the music industry because they were bands that wrote and performed their own music. This trend threatened the professional songwriters that dominated the American music industry. Ellie Greenwich, a Brill Building songwriter, said, "When the Beatles and the entire British Invasion came in, we were all ready to say, 'Look, it's been nice, there's no more room for us… It's now the self-contained group- makes, certain type of material. What do we do?" In 1963, The Sunday Times called Lennon and McCartney the greatest composers since Ludwig van Beethoven.

The Lennon–McCartney brand would prove to be a model for several other songwriting teams in the rock genre, including, according to Lennon, the Rolling Stones' Jagger–Richards partnership. Subsequent Beatlesque songwriting teams attracted comparisons in the media to Lennon–McCartney. The new wave band Squeeze's partnership of Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook was dubbed the "new Lennon–McCartney" by music writers. Difford and Tilbrook expressed ambivalence about the comparison: Tilbrook felt that they "got a bit pompous" as a result, while Difford noted that, although the tag was "very useful" to Squeeze for getting the attention of radio programmers, the label "might have been a burden" on Tilbrook "because he had to live up to the challenge of [the Beatles'] kind of songwriting, which he didn't need to do because he's such an incredible songwriter in his own right." Record Mirror pondered in 1980 whether Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphreys, the founding duo of electronic band Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, were emerging as "the Lennon and McCartney of the electronic world"; music journalists subsequently began to describe the pair as "the Lennon–McCartney of synth-pop".

When McCartney teamed up with Elvis Costello in 1989, Costello's acerbic style earned him comparisons to Lennon in his role as McCartney's collaborator. McCartney, despite conceding that Costello has "got a bit of Lennon in him", characterized the pairing as "a new thing".

Beatles catalogue
The Lennon–McCartney songwriting partnership makes up the majority of the Beatles' catalogue. The first two UK studio albums included 12 cover tunes and 15 Lennon–McCartney songs, with one track ("Don't Bother Me") credited to George Harrison. Their third UK album, A Hard Day's Night (1964), is the only Beatles album made up entirely of Lennon–McCartney compositions. The next album released, Beatles for Sale (1964), included six covers and eight Lennon–McCartney originals. The subsequent release, Help! (1965), had two covers and two Harrison compositions along with ten Lennon–McCartney tracks; it was the last Beatles album to feature a non-original composition until Let It Be, which included an arrangement of the traditional Liverpool folk song "Maggie Mae". Among the songs in this post-Help! output, Harrison contributed between one and four songs per album, and Starr wrote two songs in total and received a joint credit with Lennon and McCartney for a third ("What Goes On"). In addition, "Flying" and "Dig It" were credited to all four Beatles. The rest of the catalogue came from Lennon and McCartney.

Lennon and McCartney gave songs to Starr to sing, and to Harrison before he started writing his own material. As for the songs they kept for themselves, each partner mostly sang his own composition, often with the other providing harmonies, or they shared lead vocal. If each contributed a fragment to make a whole song, he might sing his portion, as in the case of "I've Got a Feeling" and "A Day in the Life". "Every Little Thing" is a rare example of a Lennon–McCartney song in which one member of the partnership was primary composer (McCartney) but the other sang lead vocal (Lennon). McCartney sings in unison with Lennon on the verses, but Lennon's vocal is more prominent. McCartney sings the high harmony on the chorus.

In January 2017, McCartney filed a suit in United States district court against Sony/ATV Music Publishing seeking to reclaim ownership of his share of the Lennon–McCartney song catalogue beginning in 2018. Under US copyright law, for works published before 1978 the author can reclaim copyrights assigned to a publisher after 56 years. McCartney and Sony agreed to a confidential settlement in June 2017.

Non-Beatles songs
Several songs credited to Lennon–McCartney were originally released by bands other than the Beatles, especially those managed by Brian Epstein. Recording a Lennon–McCartney song helped launch new performing-artists' careers. Many of the recordings below were included on the 1979 compilation album The Songs Lennon and McCartney Gave Away. Beatles versions of some of these were recorded; some were not released until after their split, on compilations such as Live at the BBC (1994) and The Beatles Anthology (1995–96).

In April 2024, the surviving Beatles sons James McCartney and Sean Ono Lennon worked together on the song "Primrose Hill" for McCartney's upcoming album.

Four songs and a soundtrack album were released during this period but credited solely to Paul McCartney:

Unreleased songs
The following compositions are believed to have been written by Lennon and McCartney, but never officially released by the Beatles or any other artist except as noted below. Many have appeared on Beatles bootlegs, an exception being "Carnival of Light". The list of unreleased songs includes some of the earliest Lennon–McCartney joint works dating back to the Quarrymen, the group that evolved into the Beatles. Several of these songs were revisited during the Get Back sessions of early 1969.

Category talk:Genetic diseases and disorders

Huntington's disease question
Congenital disorders -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Congenital_disorders

Genetic_disorders -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Genetic_disorders

The question to ponder is... Is Huntington's disease - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huntington%27s_disease genetic, congential or both? I'm sure it is genetic... yet think it is not considered congenital- 'cause onset isn't until late in life.

Interesting is that in the Huntingon's article they say 'inherited' --yet another synomym...? "Inherited diseases" could be a synomym for 'Genetic disorders' ...?

It would be good to have a discussion somewhere that sorts this out.

Double listing of congenital genetic disorders?
What is the WikiStyle on double listing of category listings? If a disease is indeed a congenital genetic disorder, ought it to be listed in both categories Category:Category:Genetic disorders AND Category:Congenital genetic disorders, OR ought it be listed only in the subcategory Category:Congenital genetic disorders? There is wide variation between articles in these two categories as to how this is handled (see the list in the article). Needs cleanup. N2e 02:45, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Congenital genetic disorder category is a subcategory of Genetic disorders. So articles mustn't be listed in both of them. Yes, needs big cleanup. :( NCurse [[Image:Edu science.png|22px]]work 13:18, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

 * But, to be honest, Congenital genetic disorder should be merged into Genetic disorders. I understand that not all types of genetic disorders manifest early after birth (see Huntigton's disease), but the mutated gene or condition is inherited in both cases. NCurse [[Image:Edu science.png|22px]]work 13:21, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

 * There should really be one main category Genetic disorders. The small number of other genetic disorders that are not present at birth could be in a subcategory Acquired genetic disorders. --apers0n 17:38, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I agree with Apers0n's suggestion re a small sub-category of GD for acquired GDs. And definitely concur that we do not need both GD and CGD categories. N2e 19:26, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Then I ask a botowner to move all articles in CGD to GD. NCurse [[Image:Edu science.png|22px]]work 19:31, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Done - Bot_requests... NCurse work 19:37, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Moved. Ask me if you need anything else. alpha Chimp  laudare 04:28, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks! N2e 02:07, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Acquired genetic disorder?!?
I have no idea what this new category means or why any of the diseases within are considered acquired. If it's a difference between a spontaneous germline mutation, that certainly is not acquired, as it is present since birth (see Smith-Magenis syndrome). If it's radiation or chemically induced mutation, then that again is not an acquired genetic disease. That's cancer or radiation sickness or whatever else you want to call it. As for Gulf War syndrome, I'm not going to wade into that hornet's nest but needless to say I don't believe that, if there is such thing as an acquired genetic disorder, these articles/categories belong in it! If you use the words acquired genetic disease to describe genetic mutation that occurs after birth, then the entirity of oncology, etc. would have to be there. In brief, I think that the category should be deleted unless further discussion can bring to light some aspect of medicine that my post-call state is overlooking. Sorry in advance if that's the case! InvictaHOG 15:35, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * You have a point, but in that case surely oncology should be a subcategory of Category:Genetic disorders anyway? --apers0n 07:48, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * There are several ways to approach the division of the genetic disorders category. One could go with "genetic diseases caused by mutation in a single gene" vs. "genetic diseases caused by mutations in multiple genes" and "polygenic genetic diseases." This would allow splits between, to give examples, 1) CF, 2)Omenn syndrome and 3) diabetes mellitus. However, it seems a rather cumbersome split. Alternatively, a mechanistic approach could be taken, with "deletions," "translocations," etc. but that complicates diseases which occur through multiple mechanisms. A division based on chromosomes such as "x-linked," "mitochondrial," "autosomal," and "epigenetic" might work, but there are syndromes which would fall in multiple categories still. Taking out obvious easy categories such as "DNA methylation" would not make much of a dent, but is simple to accomplish.

 * My best thought is that we not mess with the genetic disorders section too much. A different subcategory could be made for the "polygenic" diseases so that hypertension and diabetes can be separated out. A separate subcategory for "cancer genetics" is also appropriate, though the genetics for proliferative diseases which are not cancer will not fit there. Any way that I look at it, an acquired genetic disorder category does not make much sense - I still cannot think of a disease (other than benign and malignant cellular proliferations, aging, etc) which fits in the category. InvictaHOG 17:33, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

 * I have listed the category at CfD here --apers0n 05:14, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Adding new disorder to list
Could someone add Fabry disease to this list? I've recently added a lot of info to the article for the condition, and would like it to be represented here, too!

 * Done. NCurse work 15:02, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Adding another disorder to the list called idic15
Hi NCurse please add this syndrome to your list as well idic15 also called inverted duplication 15

 * I've added the to the article and started to clean it up. --apers0n 07:42, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! for adding the category to the article. Will you also include the name of the disorder to the Genetci Disorders list? I can't see it in the alphabethical order. Thanks in Advance, Antal

 * I also changed the name of the page to Isodicentric 15 --apers0n 23:53, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks Apers0n! :) NCurse work 08:10, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Not genetic
Since when is Gulf War Syndrome genetic, seriously, I saw it in the list, therefore I suggest removing it from the list. Series premiere (remake) (talk) 09:59, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

I have warned the user at 198.246.32.99 to stop vandalizing this and other pages (he is also messing with the VH1 and G4 pages). If he does it again (he has been warned a total of four times so far), he will be reported. --Kilby 20:35, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

Programming
I would like to say that, like all of the other "nostalgia" networks, this network has corrupted. Many of the old shows, like What epeated. This is obviously a very low budget operation for Nickelodeon (read: Viacom). When this channel was first picked up by my cable provider, there were literally only 5 or 6 different segments, so you'd start to see them loop after just an hour. Now it's at least a bit more mixed up. --MMX 05:32, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

I would prefer that there be no commercials. However, I will agree, that this network has become (if I'm using the word correctly) stagnant, showing that same old shows over and over again ever since Pumping GAS got cancelled. It feels as though this network isn't even aware of its own existence anymore...

Getting the axe
Somehow I feel that GAS might eventually get the axe. Reason is all they do is show the same old shows over and over again and Nick Arcade is only shown at the wee a.m. hours of the morning and there hasn't been any new shows lately. Anyone else feel this way. rksexy2finger

 * I agree. It was bad that they removed Double Dare, but kept Double Dare 2000. They need more Nick game shows. They have the programming, just not the interest. 67.188.172.165 18:08, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Yeah they still have rights to those shows they took off oviously because they were made by Nick so of corse they'll always have rights to them. I may contact them about this sometime. rksexy2finger

Only Regular Figure It Out
Figure It Out Classic is on the network only. Wild Style and Family Style were removed from the network. I'm glad for this because family talents and secrets are not as prestigious, and animal-related talents and secrets can be disturbing, like pigeon bowling. I agree with the overpopulation of pigeons, but that doesn't mean you can use them like a bowling ball.

Figure It Out
Figure It Out Family Style Still runs on Nick GAS. Once in a blue moon Figure It Out Wild Style airs. The show descripiton on the tv guide still says Figure It Out even when wild style or family style is on.

 * The original Figure It Out seldom airs. I'm thinking that it was dropped in favor of the themed versions. 67.188.172.165 19:24, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Since Figure it out Wild and Family Styles didnt air alot in the past few weeks they are now playing more often than not and in a few weeks reg FIO will come back on more than Family and Wild Styles--71.52.200.202 22:14, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

I hope that they change the lineup because legends and guts repeat alot and almost everytime I channel surf one of those shows are on! I do like those shows but nick gas really needs more! They show the same shows over and over.--Pinkhayzze 21:15, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

As of today the Nick GAS webpage on Nick.com says it is "under construction", possibly indicting a change in format of the website, television channel or both and second thought the Nick GAS will probably be change to Nick Rewind channel on next year which it shows Live Action featuring Games, Sitcoms, Reality and Sports with no Animated Shows, so say goodbye to Nick GAS forever and welcome Nick Rewind.

Sorry to break this to you, but the website you posted has no relevence whatsoever to the Nick GAS channel. As a result, I removed it. Brittany Ka 13:17, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Nick Rewind Channel
Please stop adding information about Nick GAS being turned into a rewind channel. A fan site is not enough proof to add the information. When/If Viacom (who owns Nickelodeon) issues a press release then the infomation can be added. Tazz765 23:48, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

As of today the Nickelodeon GAS webpage on Nick.com says it is "under construction", possibly indicating a change in format of the website, television channel or both. Several insiders are reporting a major shift in programming currently to take place sometime in June. The network will be revamping the format to appeal to a newer generation. Nickelodeon GAS will no longer showcase older programs and will be offering all original content targeted to the tween demographic.

Does anyone have a sorce on this?

 * No, this is just the same vandal that keeps adding this nonsense to the main article.Tazz765 03:48, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Finders Keepers
Well, looks like Finders Keepers has been moved to 2:00a E/T. That's another show that's being knocked off the daytime lineup. It and Nick Arcade should simply be removed or brought back to daytime, afternoon, or evening. 67.188.172.165 19:26, 2 September 2006 (UTC).

Finders Keepers has been removed from Nick Gas replaced it is Figure It Out & Legends Of The Hidden Temple.

When did that happen? 69.141.79.71 19:01, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

If it is the 2am est one, you will see legends of the hidden temple. if it is the 5am est one, you will see figure it out. it's sad how nick is slowly taking away the old shows. I bet next up is get the picture or nick arcade being replaced with Guts or something like that.

Semi-Protection
Is it possible to get semi-protection on this page since it seems to be unregistered users adding the nonsense? Tazz765 23:59, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

the bad news is Get the Picture will expected to be removed by the end of September 2007 because it did'nt air in morning or evening hours so it will be needed replaced by Nickelodeon GUTS or any other show at 1pm ET, 4pm ET & 3am ET meaning Nick Arcade add more airings in morning,noon or evening. the good news that before being switch to broadband, the network planned to air finale week on 12/24-30/07.68.188.126.78 17:47, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Why is that bad news? "Get the Picture" was the worst game show of the glory years by far. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.210.59.96 (talk) 07:01, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Nick GAS to become an online-only service
On December 31, 2007 Nickelodeon GAS is slated to leave the digital cable channel lineup and become an online-only service, with The N slated to take over Nick GAS's channel position after splitting from Noggin. DirecTV has confirmed that they will air both Noggin and The N. It is unknown if Dish Network, even though it carries Nick GAS, will carry The N in their lineup.

Putting scheduled end date in infobox
Recently, there has been edit warring over whether the infobox should have the scheduled end date of December 31, 2007. I personally think we shouldn't add the end date until it actually goes off the air, but that's my opinion. What do you all think? RJaguar3 | u  |  t  02:33, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

DISH and GAS?
Is there a reason why Nick GAS is not off of Dish Network yet? Or is it just because they are waiting until 6PM on 12/31 or until 2008? GD1223 (talk) 15:53, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Who knows, Nick GAS should still be a black screen (For it was starting after 6:00 AM, witnessed by viewers.), but it's back to broadcasting it's normal daily schedule for some reason.  DietLimeCola (talk) 16:47, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

The reason why Nick GAS is still on Dish Network because Get the Picture has not been removed from lineup but it's been on GAS since 1999, Nick Arcade not yet been reinstated in the daytime and Both Global GUTS and the original Double Dare not have been back on the schedule. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.230.151.128 (talk) 21:05, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

OFF THE AIR
It is now official. Nickelodeon Games & Sports is now Off the Air. iO still shows the channel saying Off Air with the logo being Nick GAS and the 3 letter title being GAS. I'll add the ending date and a part of the article that says it's now off the air. I also should mention that The N is now airing on this channel. 68.197.90.193 (talk) 00:59, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
 * That's what Nick GAS has scheduled weeks/months ago, but due to Dish Network's brilliant planning, Nick GAS is back on the air (This was a last minute change, and last minute changes usually do not appear on the schedule). DietLimeCola (talk) 02:47, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Dish Network airing this channel - not a glitch?
Many of us believed the fact that Dish Network was still airing Nick GAS to be the fault of glitches incurred as a result of the switch. However, it turns out that this may be completely intentional. Read here. EPX2 (talk) 01:08, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Viacom did not plan for this of course, this is flat out Dish Network's doing. Viacom expected Dish Network to make the change, but for some reason they're not doing it for whatever reason. Like I stated before, starting at 6AM on 12/31/07, Nick GAS was nothing but a black screen, but about two hours later (after DirecTV corrected the problem), Viacom put Nick GAS back on the air probably due to Dish Network's request.  We need people with Dish Network to view Nick GAS every once in a while until the official switch is made or until Nick GAS goes off the air again. (because as scheduled, the channel should not be broadcasting anything right now).  Due to this, the close date of this channel might have to be changed too if it continues to air programs tomorrow and beyond. DietLimeCola (talk) 02:39, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for keeping us updated, however I don't think it's going off the air until late January. Has anyone checked out the broadband channel on Turbonick though (I can't because I don't have Windows Vista), it might be showing the exact same programming as the one on Dish Network. If so, then Nick GAS may stay on way longer than we thought. DietLimeCola (talk) 16:23, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

It's time to lock this article for awhile
Once again, people from the message board, theN.com, have been putting false statements on the Nick GAS and the N articles. Dish Network has brought out no new news about the switch -- or if there will ever be a switch. It's obviously not an error/glitch, because reprogramming shouldn't take over a year (they say January 31, 2009 - remember when GAS didn't shut down -- they brought up all sorts of dates just like this one). Seems like those people at theN.com can't get over the fact that the switch isn't happening and it may never happen and obviously don't know how to make anything on Wikipedia look real nor do they bring up a reliable source.

Messed Up Nick Gas
There is one bumper, Tony Hawk's Trade Trick, where the sounds were all there, but the voices were nowhere to be found. They had this version, and a fixed version with the talking that still airs to this day.

Nick GAS had a bug that lasted about 2 months where the logo was a bit bigger and the bumpers desynched in sound for the last ten seconds of them.

I am not 100% sure. I have a few friends recording the channel and caping all the shows in high quality DSRs. Once all the shows are completed, I could care less what happens to the channel. It's just run by computers now, and that really shows how much Viacom really is not interested in this channel anymore. (JALsnipe (talk) 17:35, 13 April 2009 (UTC))

Nick Arcade
There were a total of 85 episodes taped. When Nick Arcade aired on Nick, each season was broken up into 40 episodes. The remaining 5 are still unaired to this day. When Gas started, 64 out of the original aired 80 episodes were re-run. Now, Gas only shows 57 out of those 64. I was lucky enough to find a copy of the aired pilot before it was removed from the Nick Arcade lineup. I'll post my Nick Arcade ep list here in a little bit.

Aldergrove, County Antrim

Aldergrove is a hamlet and townland sub-division in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. It is within the townland of Seacash and parish of Killead – 6 mi south of Antrim and 18 mi west of Belfast. It is part of the Borough of Antrim and Newtownabbey.

The name Aldergrove is more commonly used to describe the major airfield to the north east of the hamlet. Two long runways serve both the civil Belfast International Airport and the Joint Helicopter Command Flying Station (formerly the military base RAF Aldergrove).

The first jet aircraft to make a non-stop transatlantic flight flew from Aldergrove on 21 February 1951: An RAF English Electric Canberra B Mk 2 (serial number WD932) flown by Squadron Leader A Callard of the A&AEE flew to Gander, Newfoundland, Canada. The flight covered almost 1,800 nautical miles (3,300 km) in four hours and 37 minutes. The aircraft was being flown to the United States to act as a pattern aircraft for the Martin B-57 Canberra.

Aldergrove railway station opened on 13 November 1871, and closed in September 1960.
