The Love of Richard Nixon

"The Love of Richard Nixon" is a song by Welsh alternative rock band Manic Street Preachers. It was released on 18 October 2004 by Sony Music UK as the first single from their seventh studio album, Lifeblood (2004), and reached number two on the UK Singles Chart.

Content
The song is, according to the band, "a soundtrack to disillusion, hatred, love and never giving up". More specifically, the song is a sympathetic appraisal of former US president Richard Nixon and mentions some of his positive achievements, inevitably overshadowed by the Watergate Scandal. The timing of the single's release, two weeks before George W. Bush's victory at the 2004 US presidential elections, can also be seen as a statement by the band concerning the reputation of the USA's leadership at the time. In an interview with Repeat Fanzine, the band also said it represents how they feel in comparison to Radiohead. Nicky in particular commented that they feel like Richard Nixon compared to Radiohead's John F. Kennedy: "'If Radiohead are Kennedy, then Manic Street Preachers are Nixon: the ugly duckling who had to try 10 times harder than anyone else. Paranoid megalomaniacs.'"

The sound is more electronic than most of their previous hits, indicative of a slight switch in sound on Lifeblood; according to the band the song contains no guitars.

Release and reception
"The Love of Richard Nixon" was released on 18 October 2004 by record label Sony Music UK as the first single from the band's seventh studio album, Lifebood. Unusually, the three formats of the single—two CDs and a DVD—could be bought together for £5 at most record stores, encouraging multiple purchases of the single. The song reached number two on the UK Singles Chart, number 15 on the Spanish Singles Chart, and number 17 on the Irish Singles Chart.

Template on Newcomers Help Desk
Hello! I was wondering - you've been very efficient at copying questions to the Ref Desk when they needed to be. If your standard response ("Your factual question has been moved to the reference desk and is available here.") a template, or are you just typing it in manually?

Cheers! — QuantumEleven | (talk) 09:26, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

 * I usually type it manually the first time then just paste it, there usually aren't as many as there were today and I was actually thinking about making it a template, haha. Do you think that's a good way to handle those questions? I'm not really that familiar with the reference desk culture so I was somewhat concerned they would think we were dumping questions... Anyway, if you think a template would be good I'd be for it. - cohesion★ talk 09:31, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

 * I don't think we really need a template for this - after all, it's just a line of text with two links in it, it's just as fast to cut-and-paste (or even just type!) a response. As for 'dumping' questions on the Reference Desk, I've been hanging out there for a bit and I don't think it's ever been seen as a problem. Other users do the same by bringing over questions asked at the Help desk or from the Wikipedia mailing list. So I see no reason to stop! :)
 * Update: I just found a template from the help desk (Template:RD) which points the person asking the question to the ref desk so they can ask it again. IMO, what you've been doing (copying the question itself, as opposed to just pointing the user at the RD), even though it involves a bit more work, is far more constructive, and I think it's great that you go the 'extra mile'. Thanks for taking the time. — QuantumEleven | (talk) 09:43, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Yeah, that's good to hear about the ref desk people being ok with it :) . I think that template might be a little rough for some of the newcomers, I sometimes worry the idea of their question being moved and answered on another page might be a usability issue, having them pick the category and rewrite it I think would almost never happen. :) - cohesion★ talk 10:27, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

History of radar
Thanks for the reply. I have tried both Radar and radar but neither works for me. When I previewed this entry just now, the heading appears in blue, but when I click on it, it tells me that an article does not exist. Am I losing my metaphorical marbles already, or is there something wrong? 16:20, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

This is very odd indeed. I tried looking at it with both Internet Explorer and Firefox. Neither worked. I then took up its suggestion and tried creating an article called History of radar. The edit page appeared with the full article in it. I saved the article and it now works fine. Thanks but I am puzzled even so. Ever see the Twilight Zone? JMcC 18:37, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Location manager
i've noticed you've removed a link to the Teamsters from the article on location managers.

they are the duly elected representatives and labor organization of location managers on the west coast and as such, a useful link in the article.

i've looked over the List of policies and don't see any reason why they shouldn't be mentioned.

please cite your source.

thank you.

Seasee 05:34, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

 * The relevant policy is External links - specifically, the way I read it, external links should bring additional information on the subject. Having (briefly) browsed through the Teamster's website, they only bring information about themselves (who they are, what they bring to members...), not information about location management itself. Also, the Teamster's Union is a bit too localised for my tastes - if it was an organisation spanning all of the US (or maybe even across the Atlantic or south of the border?), it would suit the purposes of Wikipedia, which is a worldwide information source, much better. So, my view would still be that it should be removed, noble as the Teamsters surely are.
 * However, rather than doing this unilaterally, I wanted to check back with you first. Let me know what you think. And I just wanted to say that I appreciate that you sent me a message about this rather than unilaterally reverting my changes! :) — QuantumEleven | (talk) 06:53, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

 * PS Do you know about the Teamsters article? How about we just mention them in the article that way? — QuantumEleven | (talk) 06:56, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

 * i may not submit very often but at least i like to communicate with those that do when they critique my pages...i know the teamsters are a bit of a strange bedfellow for location managers but considering that the majority of the working feature location professionals are based out of hollywood and consequently, associated with the teamsters, i thought it was pertinent. the motion picture division is mentioned in the main Teamsters article and that article is mentioned in the Location manager article so it is my belief that you might as well cut out the middle man and jump straight to the parent organization but i'll submit to your judgement if you feel strongly about it. Seasee 04:18, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

 * What do you think of my change? — QuantumEleven 10:25, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

 * looks good....added the clause "in hollywood" to further distingush them from location managers outside the studio system. Seasee 22:58, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

you've removed the "wikipedia links" I've added to the Johnny Hallyday page.

 * 2) you should remove the link to the english wiki site from the FR site and the DE site, else there are dead links...
 * 3) why do you say it is not necessary? wikipedia he there to use ALL informations on one subject; why remove link to other langage?

thanks.

Vegetarien75 (81.57.58.133 10:23, 24 April 2006 (UTC))

 * Hi there! I fully agree that we should have links between different language Wikipedias - but that's what the "in other languages" (autres langues) sidebar is for. If you type Johnny Halliday, it's a link that goes into the language sidebar, if you type fr:Johnny Halliday, it goes into the main text. That's why I removed the in-text links, as the sidebar links were already there. — QuantumEleven 10:45, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Hi! I am very sorry. I didn't know what was the language sidebar. Now I know! thanks. Vegetarien75 81.57.58.133 14:54, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Downloading Wikipedia
Hi QuantumEleven,

I had read a Make DIY magazine article from august 2005 that gave step-by-step instructions on how to make a portable encyclopedia using wikipedia and something like a palm pilot. The article is in depth on how to modify the electronic device,(how to add more memory, what software you need to tranfer files from your computer, etc), but it just glosses over how to download wikipedia, basically saying "then i downloaded wikipedia". The article had mentioned MySQL, and Apache but didn't give any details about them. From the wikipedia database download page it mentioned that SQL would no longer be supported, I went to Apache where they have tons of programs and code available to download but i have no idea what any of it does, or what specific program i need. Would MediaWiki work for something like that?

Any additional information you have about this would be great.

-thanks

Comment on Cannabis Corp
I agree it was basly written- that was a couple of paragraphs lifted from Cannabis Health, so I re-wrote it and added another reference (it was also reported in Forbes, the NY Times etc.) to make it a lot more clear. It really was a corporation, we really did have a patent, we nearly moved cannabis into Sched. 2 as the source of a legal pharmaceutical, and every time I go to my Harvard Business School reunions it's "Hey, McKinney, what's happening to our Pot Stock!"

Replaceable fair use Image:Gemini_South_observatory,_star_trails.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Gemini_South_observatory,_star_trails.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 fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 17:39, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Columns
Your edit to the SI page had an edit summary of:

 * removed column formatting - not necessary, and it messes up the header formatting)

Uh.... how so? What do you mean by "header formatting?" It certainly can't mess up the section headers, so I assume you mean something else by this...? And what browser are you using? At worst, columns should simply fail to display, a la Konqueror. They should show fine on most other browsers. Anyway, even if you think that columns shouldn't be used here, I'd strongly recommend using ;'s over low-level sections in a See also. This is a trend that's been used elsewhere on Wikipedia, but subdividing the See also section too much tends to needlessly bloat it, and stretches out the Table of Contents unnecessarily. See also sections should almost never have level 3 or more subsections. SnowFire 02:02, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the response. No problem as far as layout; I got the idea to use columns and ;'s elsewhere as well.  That said, not showing up at all on IE6 is rather vexing, since a lot of people still use IE6...  I wonder if there's some good fix for that? Might have to look into it.

Can you help verify translations of articles from German
Hello QuantumEleven,

Would you be able to help evaluate the accuracy of translations of Wikipedia articles from German to English Wikipedia?

This would involve evaluating a translated article on the English Wikipedia by comparing it to the original German article, and marking it "Pass" or "Fail" based on whether the translation faithfully represents the original. Here's the reason for this request:

There are a number of articles on English Wikipedia that were created as machine translations from different languages including German, using the Content Translation tool, sometimes by users with no knowledge of the source language. The config problem that allowed this to happen has since been fixed, but this has left us with a backlog of articles whose accuracy of translation is suspect or unknown, including some articles translated from German. In many cases, other editors have come forward later to copyedit and fix any English grammar or style issues, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the translation is accurate, as factual errors from the original translation may remain. To put it another way: Good English is not the same as good translation.

If you can help out, that would be great. Here's a sample of the articles that need checking:
 * 1) Herta Hammerbacher
 * 2) Ich hab Polizei

All you have to do, is compare the English article to the German article, and assess them "Pass" or "Fail" (the Pass and Fail templates may be useful here). (Naturally, if you feel like fixing an inaccurate translation and then assessing it, that's even better, but it isn't required.) Also please note that we are assessing accuracy not completeness, so if the English article is much shorter that is okay, as long as whatever has been translated so far is factually accurate.

If you can help, please ping me here to let me know. You can add your pass/fails above, right next to each link, or you may indicate your results below. Thanks! Mathglot (talk) 06:45, 11 June 2017 (UTC)

 * 2620 hits is non-noteworthy? This is a sarcastic listing—see nominating user's comments at Votes_for_deletion/PabloDraw, made immediately prior to this listing. Postdlf 07:53, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * This is not a sarcastic listing. Also see Votes_for_deletion/Remorse_1981: 368 hits, Votes_for_deletion/Remorse_1981: 766 hits, and Votes_for_deletion/RaD_Man: 3460 hits.  According to the currently applied logic (and suspicious distribution), 3500 must be the highwater mark.
 * Keep. I don't see why web hits on google should be the measure of noteworthyness - for various reasons, some topics tend to get discuessed more than others on web pages, so it's hardly an unbiased test. I favour the "use your brain" approach, and my brain tells me this is an entry of minor fame, and thus should be kept. ShaneKing 08:08, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep. I agree with ShaneKing that Google isn't everything.  One bias is the underrepresentation of all subjects from prehistory up until the explosive growth of the Web in the late 1990s.  I see that Doink was active in 1993, so this factor affects him.  Doink gets more Google hits than an Emperor of China, King Xiao of Zhou, even if you add in the hits for the alternate spelling "King Hsiao of Chou". JamesMLane 03:58, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)

T. Nagi Reddy

Tarimela Nagi Reddy (11 February 1917 – 28 July 1976) was a communist politician from Andhra Pradesh, India. He was born in a wealthy family in Anantapur district of Andhra Pradesh. He completed his schooling from the Rishi Valley School India, founded by Andhra philosopher Jiddu Krishnamurti. He would later study at Loyola College in Chennai and at Banaras Hindu University in Varanasi. During his student days, he got involved with nationalism and Marxism. His political activities got him jailed in 1940, 1941 and 1946. He revolted against his father who was a landlord and donated his land of over 1000 acres to landless labourers.

Reddy was elected to the Madras Legislative Assembly as a Communist Party of India candidate in 1951 from Anantapuram. He was elected to the Lok Sabha from Anantapuram in 1957. In 1962 he was elected to the Andhra Pradesh legislative assembly as a Communist Party of India candidate from Puttur. In 1967 he was again elected to the assembly, now as a Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)) candidate from Anantapuram. Neelam Sanjeeva Reddy, a two-time Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh and the sixth President of India, was Nagi Reddy's brother-in-law.

In 1968, T.N. Reddy broke with the CPI(M) and formed the Andhra Pradesh Coordination Committee of Communist Revolutionaries (APCCCR). He succeeded in attracting a large part of the CPI(M) cadre to APCCCR. During a brief period APCCCR was part of All India Coordination Committee of Communist Revolutionaries (AICCCR). Reddy was however very critical of the left adventurist line of Charu Majumdar. Instead, he wanted to promote a mass line. Thus, Reddy and the APCCCR were expelled from the AICCCR.

In 1975, Unity Centre of Communist Revolutionaries of India (Marxist-Leninist) was formed through the merger of the APCCCR with three other smaller groups. T.N. Reddy worked as a leader of APCCCR until his death in 1976. His most famous work is India Mortgaged.

Siblings: Tarimala Ranga Reddy, MLA and Samithi President Tarimala Krishna Reddy, Samithi President Tarimala Ramadoss Reddy, Communist leader.

Oxford Wits

The Oxford Wits, a term coined later, were an identifiable group of literary and intellectual aesthetes and dandies, present as undergraduates at the University of Oxford in England in the first half of the 1920s.

Their leader in fashion was Harold Acton, but their later leader in intellectual matters was more noticeably Maurice Bowra. Their attitudes were those portrayed and parodied in the nostalgic Brideshead Revisited of Evelyn Waugh, the most important literary figure to emerge from the group.

Others who are cited as Oxford Wits are John Betjeman, Robert Byron, Cyril Connolly, Brian Howard, Alan Pryce-Jones, John Sparrow, John Sutro, and Christopher Sykes.

Tipit
Hi. Could you explain to me, please, what makes Tipit a notable S4C programme along the lines of Pobol y Cwm and Dechrau Canu, Dechrau Canmol? Thanks. Vashti 17:56, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

RE: Tipit
I don't know much about S4C, except for watching it whilst there on holiday!!! However, in the listed: "Pobol y Cwm," "Dechrau Canu, Dechrau Canmol" and of course "Tipit" - are three different programmes, a soap, a religious program and a game show respectively, meaning there is some notability in it being that it is one of the only game shows broadcast in Welsh. Richard n 21:13, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Why have you answered this here? Are you User:Q4?  Do you know Wikipedia has a strict policy against sockpuppetry, or having more than one account?  I urge you to read it.

 * I find it odd that you've answered this question, are one of two people who added the Tipit link to S4C, and despite you "not knowing much about S4C", you and Q4 are also the only two editors to have worked on the Tipit page here! Regardless of any of this, please respect that we've already discussed in some detail what makes a programme a notable S4C programme, and just appearing on the channel or being an example of a genre is not enough.  The programmes that remain are ones with historical interest - that is, they have run for decades.

 * You can see this discussion on the talk page at Talk:S4C; if you'd like to add to it, you're more than welcome to do so. I am also curious as to whether you have any connection with the programme, such as being on the production team; if so, issues of vanity come into play. Vashti 14:39, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I apologise: I didn't realise! Richard n 20:10, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Wonnarua

The Wonnarua people, otherwise written Wanarruwa, are a group of Aboriginal Australian people united by strong ties of kinship, and who survived in family groups or clans scattered along the inland area of what is now known as the Upper Hunter Valley, New South Wales, Australia. Their creation spirit is Baiami, also known as Koin, the creator of all things and the Keeper of the Valley.

Language
The origin of the Wonnarua language is unclear; however, linguists group closely related dialects together under the description "language of the Hunter River/Lake Macquarie" (HRLM). That term denotes the geographical location of the closely related dialects rather than the name of the language group. The area extends from north of the Hawkesbury–MacDonald River (HMR) language and south of the Lower North Coast language (LNC). Exact geographical locations of the language groups are, at this stage, speculative.

Country
Their traditional territory, estimated to comprise an area extending over 2000 mi2, spreads from the Upper Hunter River above Maitland, west to the Great Dividing Range, towards Wollombi. The Wonnarua were bounded to the north by the Geawegal people, to the north–east by the Worimi peoples, to the south east by the Awabakal people, to the south by the Darkinung and to the west by the Wiradjuri people. The Wonnarua also had trade and ceremonial links with the Kamilaroi people.

People
The Wonnarua, at the beginning of contact with whites, are estimated to have numbered around 500.

The Gringai were a clan of the Worimi, whose traditional lands are in the Dungog area.

Native title
On behalf of the Plains Clans of the Wonnarua People, Scott Franks and Anor put in a native title claim on 19 August 2013. The document claimed rights over an area of roughly 9500 km2, embracing the catchment zone within the Great Dividing Range, the Liverpool Range, and the major rivers coming out of the Barringtons, under Yango. The claim included Singleton, Muswellbrook, Dungog, Maitland, and the shire council lands of the Upper Hunter. The claim was registered in January 2015 and referred to the Federal Court to deliberate over the claim and to make a determination. However, it was ultimately discontinued and removed from the register of native title claims on 2 March 2020. The discontinuance appears to have been the result of disputes with other Aboriginal people who claimed native title in the area but in a different way and these disputes led to an independent anthropologist, Dr Lee Sackett, being appointed by the Court to prepare a report to resolve the different views of native title in the area. Dr Sackett's conclusions were to the effect that key details of the claim's structure were not supported by the evidence.

 * Charles Frederick Maynard - an activist

User:Nickj/Pages With Bad Titles

 * Something to consider: Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Also want to read the talk page for this article.

Dear John letter
Dear Pages With Bad Titles Project,

There's something I have to say: It's not you, it's me. Now, don't look so shocked - you must have sensed it was over between us.

The harsh fact of the matter is, you no longer interest me like you used to. At first, the idea of cleaning up the namespace of Wikipedia articles to remove bad redirects appealed to me. Things like "The Director" pointing to "Osama Bin Laden" clearly had to go. I mean, not a single link to "The Director", plus how often do you hear people say "The Director is planning another terrorist attack". Never? Me neither! A link to the movie "The Director", now that I would understand. A definition of a director would have been fine too. Surely it would be no problem to clean up the worst guff out of the namespace, right? Ah, those were our halcyon, idealistic, and carefree days.

But then the rot set in: Getting anything deleted is a political process, which can be extended over several months. Worst of all, it suffers from the bikeshed problem. Everyone throws in their 2 cents, and the result is a very dissatisfying process whereby almost nothing gets done. The fundamental fact of the matter is, it's very easy to create new pages, very easy to edit existing pages, (both are which are great), but very slow and painful and difficult to get anything deleted (even if it has very dubious merit) - which sucks.

What was supposed to be fun started to feel just like work. If I wanted a political nick-picking non-productive process, then I'd sit in a work meeting, where I can at least be paid for my efforts. Doing it on my own time just isn't fun. In short, I decided that it wasn't worth the effort, and that I didn't care any more.

So the spark died. The passion was gone. So you see, it's over between us. Now, go, and don't come back.

Sayonara, Nick.

P.s. Do not under any circumstances phone me at 4 in the morning when you're drunk and plead for me to take you back - I'm telling you now it won't work!

Redirects listed for deletion on 20th October 2004
List of suggested redirects for deletion (these were listed on 20th October 2004):

 * There exist redirects to Existential quantification - Too general; Not linked to by anything; Used commonly in standard English; Only a redirect.
 * Update: Still there - apparently this term has a well-defined mathematical meaning.
 * There are redirects to Existential quantification - Too general; Not linked to by anything; Used commonly in standard English; Only a redirect.
 * Update: Still there - apparently this term has a well-defined mathematical meaning.
 * Common practice redirects to Common practice period - Too general; Only linked to by 1 page; Used commonly in standard English; Only a redirect.
 * Update: Fixed - Been deleted.
 * The Director redirects to Osama Bin Laden - Too general; Not linked to by anything; Used commonly in standard English; Only a redirect.
 * Update: Fixed - A disambig page was added.
 * In Fact redirects to George Seldes - Too general; Not linked to by anything; Used commonly in standard English; Only a redirect.
 * Update: Fixed - A disambig page was added.
 * Australian Capital redirects to Australian Capital Territory - Too general (e.g. "Sydney is an Australian Capital city"); Not linked to by anything; Used commonly in standard English (in Australia); Only a redirect.
 * Update: Fixed - Changed to redirect to a better target.

List of Redirects to include in next batch of proposed deletions

 * The el redirects to Metro - Too general; Not linked to by anything; Used very occasionally in standard English with a different meaning ("the el nino effect"); Only a redirect.
 * Update - actually, this one should probably be "The El", rather than "The el", in which case I would have no objection to it.
 * The stretch redirects to Pitching position - Too general; Only linked to by 1 page; Used occasionally in standard English with a different meaning ("The stretch of road between"); Only a redirect.
 * Dead wood redirects to Coarse woody debris ; Too general; no links; only a redirect; being used in a different meaning to everyday english ;
 * I've changed this one too. Rich Farmbrough 12:55, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Thank you.
 * One and one redirects to Plus and minus signs ; no links; only a redirect; being used in a sometimes different meaning to everyday english (e.g. "All for one and one for all.").
 * I've changed this. Rich Farmbrough 12:38, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Thank you again!
 * Earliest known use redirects to First day of issue (about postage stamps); Too general; only 1 link; only a redirect; being used in a different meaning to everyday english e.g. "The earliest known use of the name is..."
 * First to redirects to List of firsts ; Too general; has no links; only a redirect; being used in a different meaning to everyday english (e.g. "The Municipality was one of the first to declare ...");
 * Liverpool road : My fault, I added this, then moved it to Liverpool Road, so I request the original mis-capitalized page to be deleted.
 * Update: Turns out different capitalizations are fine, so this one isn't actually a problem.

Too general, but will probably not be able to get votes needed for deletion

 * for all redirects to Universal quantification - vague; Very common in English; Only a redirect; Only linked to by 5 pages.
 * Update: Changed my mind - I still don't think it's great, but I no longer object so much to this.
 * Sun sign redirects to Astrological sign - Only linked to by 2 pages; Used occasionally in standard English; Only a redirect.
 * Update: Changed my mind - no longer object to this.
 * less than redirects to inequality - Too general; Only linked to by 5 pages; Used commonly in standard English; Only a redirect.
 * Update: Changed my mind - no longer object to this.
 * Andrew redirects to St Andrew - vague; proper noun; Very common in English; Only a redirect; link to by about 15 pages.
 * Update: Fixed - has been made in a disambiguation page.

Require further investigation or confirmation

 * Therefore - Too general/vague; Does not appear to be linked to by anything; Used commonly in standard English; Only a redirect.
 * Update: still there, could still be improved by being a disambig page (e.g. also link to Deductive reasoning, maybe I think therefore I am, etc.).
 * Bad content - the City - lists the City of London, which is silly because in any English-speaking city, "the city" will tend to refer to that city's CBD. As a result, another entry has been added for a canadian city. Taken to the logical extreme, does every city in the world need to add itself under "the city" ?
 * Update: Tried to fix by adding a more generalised definition.

Things that need disambiguation pages
Redirects that I previously thought that should be deleted, but which I was wrong about because their capitalization means that they're OK (see explanation by Derrick Coetzee below). These pages probably need disambiguation pages instead though.

 * Skeleton Crew should probably have its title changed; is about a Stephen King book; not the defintion of skeleton crew as used in everyday English.
 * Right, that's what skeleton crew would be about, if it existed. If it existed, Skeleton Crew would probably also have a disambiguating link. Proper-noun style capitalization carries information. Derrick Coetzee 00:36, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

 * The Foundation redirects to The Foundation Series - Too general; Only linked to by 1 page; Used occasionally in standard English ("The foundation of society is based on ..."); Only a redirect.
 * General Public is a music band, has a different meaning in everyday english (e.g. "open to the general public").
 * Department of Agriculture - assumes US Department of Agriculture, but could just as well be any country's (e.g. Australian Department of Agriculture)
 * Partially disambiguated.... Rich Farmbrough 13:57, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * War Time - example: "meet war time demand". Page defines US-style timekeeping during the war.
 * Young Offenders Act is specific to Canada, but Australia has one of these too.
 * Out of Control is a comedy series, but the sentence "the killer rampaged out of control, shooting innocent bystanders" indicates that this would usually not be an appropriate link.
 * Struck Down is a music album, but in English is either means kill (as in a person), or stopped / reversed (as in a legal ruling or piece of legislature).
 * Change of Heart is about a cartoon show, but in everyday English it means an alteration in feelings.

Talk:Time-sharing

JOSS on JOHNNIAC
JOSS on JOHNNIAC from Rand Corportation is not mentioned as an early time-sharing system. When I was working on the design of the APL\360 supervisor with LMB, JOSS was quite influential. Also there was a PDP-1 based time-sharing system at MIT written in 1961 which should be included.Rdmoore6 03:39, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Please feel free to add something about them. Speaking personally, I'm always interested to see information added by people who actually worked with the early time-share systems. We already have an article on JOSS and it would be good to link it with this article. As for the PDP-1 system, I'm sure a little information on it would be worthwhile, if we don't already have something. -- Derek Ross | Talk 05:03, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

First mention
In the proceedings of the 1954 MIT Summer Session on "Digital Computers - Advanced Coding Techniques, page 16-2, it says, "John Backus said that by time-sharing, a big computer could be used as several small ones; there would need to be a reading station for each user." This is the earliest reference to the idea of time-sharing a computer that I have seen in print. This proceedings is available here: http://bitsavers.org/pdf/mit/summer_session_1954/Digital_Computers_Advanced_Coding_Techniques_Summer_1954.pdf Paul McJones (talk) 20:27, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Right enough. This demonstrates that the concept was known to the inner circle of computer pioneers by 1954, although it would have been difficult or impossible to implement on contemporary computers. However I don't think that those proceedings would count as public dissemination. Only a very few people would have seen them. -- Derek Ross | Talk'' 06:21, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I think they count, it was published. John Backus was thus knowingly the first who mentioned the concept of time-sharing publicly. How many people could access the publication, and how many accessed it, doesn't really matter. Everyone with enough interest could likely in a way or another obtain that paper also.Eiusmod (talk) 22:26, 29 June 2016 (UTC)

John McCarthy did not "leave to work on Project MAC," he left MIT for Stanford and became a professor there in 1962, before Project MAC was started. (See Wikipedia). McCarthy's Reminiscences On The Theory of Time-Sharing are no longer online at Stanford but can be found at http://innovation.it.uts.edu.au/projectjmc/computing-science/timesharing.html. Teager and McCarthy presented a paper titled "Time-Shared Program Testing" at the ACM meeting in August 1959.

McCarthy, Teager, Corbato, Minsky and other MIT professors were active in advocating time-sharing in the late 50s/early 60s. Corbato, Daggett and Daley were the implementers of CTSS, which was demonstrated in 1961. Project MAC began with two man parts: the AI Lab and time-sharing research. The time-sharing research part began by using CTSS at the MIT Comp Center, and then Project MAC obtained its own IBM 7094 and there were two installations running CTSS at MIT. Time-sharing research was initially focused on finding out what one could do with time-sharing. There was a Summer Study at MAC in the summer of 1963, where computer scientists from many organizations experimented with CTSS. By 1965, Project MAC had set up plans to build Multics, a new OS, using CTSS as the development tool.

Stanford batch processing video
Does anyone know where I might find the video referenced in the section under batch processing? ("Programmers at the universities decried the inhumanist behaviors that batch processing imposed, to the point that Stanford students made a short film humorously critiquing it.") Google gives me nothing.

The section implies that the video was an example of the movement that led to the birth of human-computer interaction as a discipline, so it would be nice if we could have a link to it somewhere. Mariojv (talk) 18:39, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

@Home
Is the increase in scientific-based programs like SETI@Home or LHC@Home considered "cloud computing" (and thus not deserving of mention) or should this maybe me mentioned as a form of modern time sharing? Alucardtepes (talk) 19:37, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

No interrupts?
This text is questionable:

"Throughout the late 1960s and the 1970s, computer terminals were multiplexed onto large institutional mainframe computers (Centralized computing systems), which in many implementations sequentially polled the terminals to see whether any additional data was available or action was requested by the computer user. Later technology in interconnections were interrupt driven ..."

First hardware interrupts were on UNIVAC I in 1951, designed by the same guys who made ENIAC, these were only for overflow though. IBM 709 introduced in 1958, had hardware interrupts for I/O, almost all computers produced since 1960 had hardware interrupts, including IBM 360 mainframe computers. Or maybe some additional polling was meant by that, but this text gives an impression that these computers had no interrupts at all.

In time-sharing systems like CTSS, the input from consoles was written in the buffers in the supervisor, by interrupts, then when a return character was received, the control was given to the supervisor that dumped the running code and decided what to run next. This is how time-sharing system is implemented, it is difficult to see how can it be made in another way. Also mainframe computers in the 1960's and 1970's mostly had no time-sharing and run all in batch mode, because there were no successful time-sharing operating systems for IBM 360/370.Eiusmod (talk) 05:17, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Huh? CP/CMS followed byVM/370, MTS? I think the text confuses BTAM 3270s, which were polled. Peter Flass (talk) 16:46, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

No article in Wikipedia about Robert C Daley
I thought about creating an article in Wikipedia about Robert C Daley. But then i thought i'm not able to do it, the requirements for such articles are so strict that they will delete it straight away. I had a big trouble when i created an article about Dennis Allison, it was almost deleted.

If you look at the CTSS source code, the authors of most of the code of its kernel are Robert C Daley and Peter Bos. Don't you find it weird that there is no article in Wikipedia about the man who wrote most of the kernel of the first time-sharing operating system in the world. He also wrote its disk system, which was the first implementation of the disk filesystem in the world, a software that in essence is still in use today. He was the co-author with Corbato, of the first paper about CTSS. Don't you find it weird that there is no article in Wikipedia about the man who first created so many most important things that are still used in the operating systems today. Is it normal, one's popularity should not depend at all on what one does, but instead on some completely different things? Eiusmod (talk) 22:04, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Not a book
You'll note that Rapidata is used AS AN EXAMPLE; there were 32 such ..." per the article.

Granted there were time sharing services in the UK, and probably in France too.

The amount of text, info re pricing, etc. is for a book, not an article of this type. 'Nuff said. Pi314m (talk) 09:06, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

Dead Link
Ref. 7 is correct, the link https://www.computer.org/web/csdl/index/-/csdl/proceedings/afips/1958/5053/00/50530046.pdf however dead, to: Bauer, W. F., Computer design from the programmer's viewpoint (Eastern Joint Computer Conference, December 1958) One of the first descriptions of computer time-sharing. – The quote is frequent however, see https://www.histo.cat/sabies/Bob-Bemer and for an example time sharing Basic system http://www.findtube.de/cgi-bin/lexikon_HP_Time-Shared_BASIC_en.html and search for "Bauer". – Fritz Jörn (talk) 11:09, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

Unclear sentence: Batch Processing
This sentence doesn't seem to make sense:

Newer batch processing software and methodologies decreased these "dead periods" by queuing up programs were developed: operating systems such as IBSYS (1960).[3] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C6:7B85:FC01:35D8:103A:1A64:6E32 (talk) 17:33, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Farhud

 (الفرهود) was the pogrom or the "violent dispossession" that was carried out against the Jewish population of Baghdad, Iraq, on 1–2 June 1941, immediately following the British victory in the Anglo-Iraqi War. The riots occurred in a power vacuum that followed the collapse of the pro-Nazi government of Rashid Ali al-Gaylani while the city was in a state of instability. The violence came immediately after the rapid defeat of Rashid Ali by British forces, whose earlier coup had generated a short period of national euphoria, and was fueled by allegations that Iraqi Jews had aided the British. More than 180 Jews were killed and 1,000 injured, although some non-Jewish rioters were also killed in the attempt to quell the violence. Looting of Jewish property took place and 900 Jewish homes were destroyed.

The Farhud took place during the Jewish holiday of Shavuot. It has been referred to as a pogrom which was part of the Holocaust, though its inclusion as such has been disputed. The event spurred the migration of Iraqi Jews out of the country, although a direct connection to the 1951–1952 Jewish exodus from Iraq is also disputed, as many Jews who left Iraq immediately following the Farhud later returned to the country, and permanent Jewish emigration out of Iraq did not accelerate significantly until 1950–1951. According to Hayyim Cohen, the Farhud "was the only [such instance of Jewish shops and synagogues destroyed, Jewish girls being gang raped, and mob violence ] known to the Jews of Iraq, at least during their last hundred years of life there". Historian Edy Cohen writes that up until the Farhud, Jews had enjoyed relatively favorable conditions and coexistence with Muslims in Iraq.

Independence of Iraq
After the Ottoman Empire was defeated in World WarI, the League of Nations granted the mandate of Iraq to Britain. After King Ghazi who inherited the throne of FaisalI, died in a 1939 car accident, Britain installed 'Abd al-Ilah as Iraq's governing regent.

By 1941 the approximately 150,000 Iraqi Jews played active roles in many aspects of Iraqi life, including farming, banking, commerce and the government bureaucracy.

Iraq in World War II
Iraqi nationalist Rashid Ali al-Gaylani was appointed Prime Minister again in 1940, and attempted to ally with the Axis powers in order to remove the remaining British influence in the country.

Much of the population had retained significant anti-British sentiments since the 1920 Iraqi revolt, although the Jewish population was viewed as pro-British during World WarII, contributing to the separation of the Muslim and Jewish communities.

In addition, between 1932 and 1941, the German embassy in Iraq, headed by Dr. Fritz Grobba, significantly supported antisemitic and fascist movements. Intellectuals and army officers were invited to Germany as guests of the Nazi party, and antisemitic material was published in the newspapers. The German embassy purchased the newspaper Al-alam Al-arabi ("The Arab world") which published, in addition to antisemitic propaganda, a translation of Mein Kampf in Arabic. The German embassy also supported the establishment of Al-Fatwa, a youth organization based upon the model of the Hitler Youth.

The Golden Square coup

In 1941 a group of pro-Nazi Iraqi officers, known as the "Golden Square" and led by General Rashid Ali, overthrew Regent Abdul Ilah on April 1 after staging a successful coup. The coup had significant popular support, particularly in Baghdad. Historian Orit Bashkin writes that "All, apparently, yearned for the departure of the British after two long decades of interference in Iraqi affairs".

Iraq's new government then was quickly involved in confrontation with the British over the terms of the military treaty forced on Iraq at independence. The treaty gave the British unlimited rights to base troops in Iraq and transit troops through Iraq. The British arranged to land large numbers of soldiers from India in Iraq to force the country to show its intentions. Iraq refused to let them land and confrontations afterward occurred both near Basra in the south and to the west of Baghdad near the British base complex and airfield. The Germans dispatched a group of 26 heavy fighters to aid in a futile air attack on the British airbase at Habbaniya which accomplished nothing.

Winston Churchill sent a telegram to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, warning him that if the Middle East fell to Germany, victory against the Nazis would be a "hard, long and bleak proposition" given that Hitler would have access to the oil reserves there. The telegram dealt with the larger issues of war in the Middle East rather than Iraq exclusively.

On May 25 Hitler issued his Order 30, stepping up German offensive operations: "The Arab Freedom Movement in the Middle East is our natural ally against England. In this connection special importance is attached to the liberation of Iraq... I have therefore decided to move forward in the Middle East by supporting Iraq."

On May 30 the British-organized force called Kingcol led by Brigadier J.J. Kingstone reached Baghdad, causing the "Golden Square" and their supporters to escape via Iran to Germany. Kingcol included some elements of the Arab Legion led by Major John Bagot Glubb known as Glubb Pasha.

On May 31 Regent Abdul Illah prepared to fly back into Baghdad to reclaim his leadership. To avoid the impression of a British-organized countercoup, the regent entered Baghdad without a British escort.

Michael Eppel, in his book "The Palestinian Conflict in Modern Iraq", blames the Farhud on the influence of German ideology on the Iraqi people, as well as extreme nationalism, both of which were heightened by the Golden Square coup.

Antisemitic actions preceding the Farhud
Sami Michael, a witness to the Farhud, testified: "Antisemite propaganda was broadcast routinely by the local radio and Radio Berlin in Arabic. Various anti-Jewish slogans were written on walls on the way to school, such as "Hitler was killing the Jewish germs". Shops owned by Muslims had 'Muslim' written on them, so they would not be damaged in the case of anti-Jewish riots."

Shalom Darwish, the secretary of the Jewish community in Baghdad, testified that several days before the Farhud, the homes of Jews were marked with a red palm print ("Hamsa"), by al-Futuwa youth. Al-Sabawi also instructed Jews in Baghdad to pack suitcases and to wait to be taken to "detention camps" "for their own safety".

Two days before the Farhud, Yunis al-Sabawi, a government minister who proclaimed himself the governor of Baghdad, summoned Rabbi Sasson Khaduri, the community leader, and recommended to him that Jews stay in their homes for the next three days as a protective measure. He had planned for a larger massacre, preparing to broadcast a call for the Baghdad public to massacre Jews. However, the broadcast was never made since al-Sabawi was forced to flee the country.

During the fall of the Rashid Ali government, false rumors were circulated that Jews used radios to signal the Royal Air Force and distributed British propaganda.

Farhud (1–2 June 1941)

According to Iraqi government and British historical sources violence started when a delegation of Jewish Iraqis arrived at the Palace of Flowers (Qasr al Zuhur) to meet with the Regent Abdullah, and were attacked en route by an Iraqi Arab mob as they crossed Al Khurr Bridge. Iraqi Arab civil disorder and violence then swiftly spread to the Al Rusafa and Abu Sifyan districts, and got worse the next day when elements of the Iraqi police began joining in with the attacks upon the Jewish population, involving shops belonging to it being set on fire and a synagogue being destroyed. Many Jewish girls were gang-raped and children maimed and killed in front of their families.

However, Zvi Yehuda, a professor of Jewish Studies, has suggested that the event that set off the rioting was anti-Jewish preaching in the Jami-Al-Gaylani mosque, and that the violence was premeditated rather than a spontaneous outburst. Mordechai Ben-Porat, who later became the leader of the Iraqi Zionists, described his experience as follows: "We were mostly cut off from the center of the Jewish community and our Muslim neighbors became our friends. It was because of one Muslim neighbor, in fact, that we survived the Farhoud. We had no weapons to defend ourselves and were utterly helpless. We put furniture up against the doors and windows to prevent the rioters from breaking in. Then, Colonel Arif's wife came rushing out of her house with a grenade and a pistol and shouted at the rioters, 'If you don’t leave, I will explode this grenade right here!' Her husband was apparently not home and she had either been instructed by him to defend us or decided on her own to help. They dispersed, and that was that – she saved our lives."

In some instances, common criminals came to the help of the Jews. In one case, a young Muslim woman, who, ironically, had been looting with her sister, saw a pogromist attacking a young Jewish man. The attacker responded by stabbing her to death. He was later convicted of murder and hanged. A man known to be a thief protected roughly 100 Jews in his neighborhood, forcing the local baker and grocery store owner to give them food. Jews themselves also fought back, using knives, rocks, pistols, and clubs.

The dean of Midrash Bet Zilkha, Yaakov Mutzafi, raced to open up the gates of the yeshiva to shelter the victims of the Farhud who were displaced from their homes, and secured money for their upkeep from philanthropists in the community.

Civil order was restored after two days of violence in the afternoon of 2 June, when Prime Minister Jamil Al Midfai imposed a curfew and shot violators on sight. An investigation conducted by British journalist Tony Rocca of the Sunday Times attributed the delay to a personal decision by Kinahan Cornwallis, the British Ambassador to Iraq, who failed to immediately carry out orders he received from the Foreign Office in the matter, and initially denied requests from British Imperial military and civil officers on the scene for permission to act against the attacking Arab mobs. The British also delayed their entry into Baghdad for 48 hours, which some testimonies suggest was due to having ulterior motives in allowing a clash to happen between Muslims and Jews in the city.

Casualties
The exact number of victims is uncertain. With respect to Jewish victims, some sources say that about 180 Jewish Iraqis were killed and about 240 were wounded, 586 Jewish-owned businesses were looted and 99 Jewish houses were destroyed. Other accounts state that nearly 200 were killed and more than 2,000 injured, while 900 Jewish homes and hundreds of Jewish-owned shops destroyed and looted. The Israeli-based Babylonian Jewry Heritage Center maintains that in addition to 180 identified victims, around another 600 unidentified ones were buried in a mass grave. Zvi Zameret of Israel's Education Ministry says 180 were killed and 700 wounded. Bashkin writes that "a constant element that appears in most accounts of the Farhud is a narrative relating to a good neighbor [...] Judging by the lists of the Jewish dead, it seems that Jews in mixed neighborhoods stood a better chance of surviving the riots than those in uniformly Jewish areas." According to documents discovered from the Iraqi Jewish Archive, more than a thousand Jews were murdered or disappeared.

When the forces loyal to the regent entered to restore order, many rioters were killed. The Iraqi Commission Report noted that: "After some delay the Regent... arranged for the dispatch of troops to take control... There was no more aimless firing into the air; their machine guns swept the streets clear of people and quickly put a stop to looting and rioting." The British Ambassador noted that the second day was more violent than the first, and that "Iraqi troops killed as many rioters as the rioters killed Jews." The Iraqi Commission Report estimated the total number of Jews and Muslims killed at 130. Eliahu Eilat, a Jewish Agency agent estimated 1,000 as the total number of Jews and Muslims who died, with other similar accounts estimating 300–400 pogromists killed by the Regent's army.

Iraqi monarchist response
Within a week of the riots, on 7 June, the reinstated monarchist Iraqi government set up a committee of inquiry to investigate the events. According to Peter Wien, the regime "made every effort to present the followers of the Rashid 'Ali movement as proxies of Nazism".

The monarchist government acted quickly to suppress supporters of Rashid Ali. Many Iraqis were exiled as a result, and hundreds were jailed. Military courts were convened to try the rioters and those responsible for the coup. A number of men, including Yunis al-Sabawi and multiple Iraqi Army officers and policemen, were legally sentenced to death in consequence of the violence by the newly established pro-British Iraqi government.

Long-term impact
In some accounts the Farhud marked the turning point for Iraq's Jews. Other historians, however, see the pivotal moment for the Iraqi Jewish community much later, between 1948 and 1951, since Jewish communities prospered along with the rest of the country throughout most of the 1940s,  and many Jews who left Iraq following the Farhud returned to the country shortly thereafter and permanent emigration did not accelerate significantly until 1950–1951. Bashkin writes that "In the context of Jewish-Iraqi history, moreover, a distinction should be made between an analysis of the Farhud and the Farhudization of Jewish Iraqi history – viewing the Farhud as typifying the history of the relationship between Jews and greater Iraqi society. The Jewish community strived for integration in Iraq before and after the Farhud. In fact, the attachment of the community to Iraq was so tenacious that even after such a horrible event, most Jews continued to believe that Iraq was their homeland."

Either way, the Farhud is broadly understood to mark the start of a process of politicization of the Iraqi Jews in the 1940s, primarily amongst the younger population, especially as a result of the impact it had on hopes of long term integration into Iraqi society. In the direct aftermath of the Farhud, many joined the Iraqi Communist Party in order to protect the Jews of Baghdad, yet they did not want to leave the country and rather sought to fight for better conditions in Iraq itself. At the same time the Iraqi government which had taken over after the Farhud reassured the Iraqi Jewish community, and normal life soon returned to Baghdad, which saw a marked betterment of its economic situation during World WarII.

It was only after the Iraqi government initiated a policy shift towards the Iraqi Jews in 1948, curtailing their civil rights and firing many Jewish state employees, that the Farhud began to be regarded as more than just an outburst of violence instigated by foreign influences, namely Nazi propaganda.

On October 23, 1948, Shafiq Ades, a respected Jewish businessman, was publicly hanged in Basra on charges of selling weapons to Israel and the Iraqi Communist Party, despite the fact he was an outspoken anti-Zionist. The event increased the sense of insecurity among Jews. The Jewish community general sentiment was that if a man as well connected and powerful as Shafiq Ades could be eliminated by the state, other Jews would not be protected any longer, and the Farhud was no longer seen as an isolated incident. During this period, the Iraqi Jewish community became increasingly fearful.

Remembrances
A monument, called Prayer, located in Ramat Gan, is in memory of the Jews who were killed in Iraq during the Farhud and in the 1960s.

1 June 2015, was the first International Farhud Day at the United Nations.

Morgaine le Fey (DC Comics)

Morgaine le Fey is a supervillainess appearing in DC Comics, based on Morgan le Fay, the mythical sorceress and half-sister of King Arthur. She debuted in The Demon #1 (September 1972), and was created by Jack Kirby.

Fictional character biography
Morgaine le Fey is the ancient sorceress of Arthurian legends. Her history is slightly different from the legends, but she is a sorceress gifted in the arts of black magic. In Madame Xanadu #1 (2008), Morgaine (or "Morgana") is revealed as a sister of Nimue Inwudu (the future Madame Xanadu) and Vivienne, the Lady of the Lake. All three women are said to be descended from the "Elder Folk", survivors of the fall of Atlantis that evolved into the Homo magi, explaining Morgaine's affinity for magic. While Nimue is shown as kind and caring about the early, magic-free Homo sapiens, Morgaine exhibits a mean streak, treating the new human breed as little more than playthings, using contempt even towards her kinder little sister.

After several centuries of manipulating humans and taking many lovers (including Julius Caesar), Morgaine sets her sights on Uther Pendragon, High King of Britain. Her advances are rejected, as Uther only has eyes for Igraine, the wife of Duke Gorlois of Cornwall. Seeking to meddle in their lives, Morgaine assumes a magical glamour and disguises herself as one of Igraine's daughters, but this causes her to be exiled from the Elder Folk. Her sister Vivienne gives her shelter on the isle of Avalon. Following the Flashpoint event, which altered the timeline of the DC Universe, this history appears to have been revised. In the Demon Knights series, Morgaine and Nimue are biological daughters of Igraine, who is identified as a Fae.

In the early 6th century, Morgaine trains her sisters Morgause and Elaine to be adept with sorcery like her. Following Gorlois' death at Uther's hands, Morgaine blames her half-brother King Arthur (Uther's son) for stealing her and her sisters' birthright. She conspires against him throughout his time on the throne and seeks the destruction of Camelot.

In the waning days of Camelot, Merlin merges his demon familiar Etrigan with a man, Jason Blood, as part of a last-ditch effort to defend the kingdom against Morgaine le Fey's assault. Following the fall of Camelot, Morgaine continues to practice her dark arts and retains her youth for many centuries, always seeking more power and a new kingdom to rule. By the 20th century, Merlin has arisen anew and tricks Morgaine, causing her to lose her youth and beauty which she had preserved using her magics. She wishes to replenish her youth with Merlin's secrets. She forces Jason Blood to bond with Etrigan the Demon again and to lead her to Merlin's tomb. Etrigan eventually strives to keep Morgaine le Fey from restoring her youth with the powers of Merlin.

In Batman Family #17, the Huntress's use of the Justice League transporter frees Morgaine le Fey (who captures the Philosopher's Stone). Le Fey seeks a baby with latent demon powers in the maternity ward where Man-Bat's wife is giving birth. Several women give birth to demon children as a result. Etrigan also appears and together he and Man-Bat defeat le Fey.

Also in pre-Crisis continuity, Morgaine's daughter Morgana is one of Wonder Woman's foes, a mischievous young witch. In the post-Crisis timeline, this character is no longer referenced and Morgaine herself has gone on to become an enemy of Wonder Woman.

Morgaine later attempts to steal Wonder Woman's eternal youth, not realizing that Wonder Woman has already given it up. Her spell backfires and she disintegrates into dust. She retains enough magic for a resurrection, however, and returns to battle Etrigan and Wonder Woman on many occasions.

Morgaine returns in the series Trinity, teaming up with a mysterious man called Enigma and the alien warlord Despero to usurp the symbolic position of Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman. The trio of villains succeed in creating an alternate timeline with their efforts, but the spell is not entirely successful, as "Despero" is revealed to be Kanjar Ro in disguise and disrupts Morgaine's enchantment.

While her bid for godhood is disrupted, she nonetheless acquires magical might to enslave the Earth by infusing an already powerful supervillain team with the might of the Major Arcana of the Tarot, giving them a measure of control over reality. As she is part of this Dark Arcana team, as the High Priestess, she has also this measure of control, allowing her to bring Europe and most of Asia Minor under her control, and ultimately lead the forces of good back to America for a final showdown of the powers of the Arcana.

This bid also fails, as the divinely-empowered Trinity of Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman return from their exile and destroy the Dark Arcana's reality-based powers, vanquishing Morgaine's control over Europe. Morgaine, during the part of the series where she enjoys the massive power boost, is portrayed as a power-drunk menace, scorching the Earth as she walks; her powers are used so recklessly and dangerously that even her Dreambound soldiers defect and join forces with the heroes in a plan to bring her down. Ultimately, she seeks the aid of Krona, first, to enslave, and later, to destroy the Earth, as she preferred to have it blasted to nothingness than allow it to remain outside of her control. When this alliance failed, Morgaine offered Krona the soul of Enigma's daughter, causing him to turn on her. Morgaine is defeated, and she is imprisoned in a stone idol, which is placed in the custody of Jason Blood.

During the Brightest Day crossover, Mr. Terrific mentions that Morgaine is among the dozens of magical beings driven insane by Alan Scott's Starheart. According to him, Morgaine was spotted in New Mexico, where she was going on a rampage.

Morgaine appears as a member of Hawkman and Hawkgirl's group The Immortals, advising Kendra Saunders/Lady Blackhawk to use the brain of Anti-Monitor to destroy the Dark Multiverse.
