Sources cont'd
Hi guys,

It looks like you have a lot of sources going already. I was thinking that maybe we could expand a little "Major Works" by browsing through Mulata de tal, El Señor presidente, Hombres de maiz, and of course Leyendas de Guatemala. However this might be more reading than we can handle or maybe its not entirely necessary(?). Regardless:

Asturias, Miguel Angel. El Señor presidente. Madrid : Universidad de Salamanca Grupo Santillana de Ediciones, 1995. (not the 1st ed.)

Asturias, Miguel Angel. Hombres de maiz. Buenos Aires : Editorial Losada, 1949.

Asturias, Miguel Angel. Leyendas de Guatemala. Buenos Aires : Editorial Losada, 1957.

Asturias, Miguel Angel. Mulata de tal. Buenos Aires : Editorial Losada, 1963.

It looks like we have a lot to work through! I'll add anything else I find tonight.

annotated bib
Hey group!

I just looked at my calendar - annotated bib is due soon! So, looking at the list, I'll see what I can dig up on the first 3 articles and book #2 (under bio), is that okay with everyone?

--Phxalana (talk) 08:56, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

annotated biblio
hello everyone,

i'm at koerner's and am going to start making my way through some of the books we have in our bibliography. alanna, i'm not sure what book you meant by the 2nd book. lets make sure we write down the names of the books we have begun reading so we don't overlap. i'll write down the ones i'm going to use in a couple hours. go team go!

--Trowan (talk) 21:25, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

So, i found a great book (university press) that i'm going to use for this assignment called "Las novelas de MAA: desde la teoria de la recepcion". Alanna is using the book by Richard Callan. I also took out a few other books that will come in handy later. good luck guys, --Trowan (talk) 19:59, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

mmm libraries
hey guys

so i'm at ikb right now - i've downloaded the second two articles and i'll read/annotate them hopefully tonight. i'll check out my Callan book tomorrow and read/annotate it then. for the first article - i couldn't figure out how to get back to the page i originally found it on... apparently EBSCOhost is very picky that way! anyway - i'll just stick to my 2 articles and the one book. if i have any extra time this weekend i'll try to knock out another book. i'll keep you guys posted!

happy readings! --Phxalana (talk) 03:09, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Game Plan
After Wednesday's class, this is more or less how we plan to go about editing this article as a group:

1. Read through the article* if you haven't already! Where is it lacking? Read through the discussion page criticism on the article as well to get an idea of how the article has evolved and where we can take it.

2. Read through the source(s) (the book and/or articles you wrote an annotated bibliography for) that you plan to use. Are they reliable sources*? Decide what sections of the article your sources are best applicable to.

3. Once you have decided what sections you are going to work on, begin checking the citations. Are they reliable sources? If not, maybe we can re-source them or delete them altogether.

4. Begin to edit using the information you have from your source. This will happen bit by bit. It is a process which can get a bit confusing. If lost, there are many wikipedia help pages to guide you through.

5. How is the grammar? Check for flow of ideas, use of verbs, fragment sentences, etc. Again, you can refer to the wiki "good article" page to see what they think is considered good academic writing.

Also, remember to keep in contact with the group! If you plan on creating a new section, let us know and we'll keep an eye out for relative information in our sources. Two of us might be working on the same section which could get confusing. Once you know what section(s) you plan to edit, let the group know as well. Throughout the process we can check how each other are doing and help edit.

 * Check wikipedia's definition of a "good article" and a "reliable source"

Good luck, --Trowan (talk) 19:52, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Because I know it can be confusing, here are quicklinks to info about Good Articles and Reliable Sources. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help! Scartol  •  Tok  18:45, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

new sections
Hola equipo,

I have sketches of material to start two new sections. One entitled "Magical realism" (Asturias' role etc.) and one on the role of myth in his writing. The later could perhaps be incorporated in the Mayan influences section if it seems like a better fit, but I've found 3 good articles on the subject and I have a feeling a new section could emerge. Any ideas for new sections? --Daquigg (talk) 04:08, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I've been away from this page (and all of Wikipedia) for a while, but I've finally got some time and I might be of some use. It sounds like the info. you plan to add, Daquigg, could go into the "Style" section; I actually imagine the main section being "Style", with general info. (including that which is currently there) listed before two sub-sections: "Magical realism" and "Mayan influence" (making it from an independent section to a sub-section of "Style"). Something like we did at Honoré de Balzac. Scartol  •  Tok  18:44, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

Great suggestion! i think i will follow up on that. maybe with a "use of language" and "surrealism" subsection as well. Working on it. Keep the criticism/advice coming :) --Trowan (talk) 04:54, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

Time to get down to business
Hi group,

I have begun editing all the sections that have nothing to do with his life, education, biography. If you have anything to add, please let me know. i plan to work on our style section and rework it as mentioned above. suggestions? --Trowan (talk) 04:52, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

also, i took out what alanna added under "style" because it was direct quotes. i cut and pasted it below in case she wants to use it.

For Asturias, the most serious threat to fiction today is its drift toward journalism, the reporting of factual events laced with a plot to give it the name of fiction (Callan, p.13). Nevertheless, the events he narrates are entirely fictitious, and readers are sometimes disconcerted to find that his novels are in no sense historical. Leaving facts to history, he creates a parallel world with its own events and people and borrow from actuality only the spirit of the times, which he often personifies in a created character (Callan, p. 14) --Trowan (talk) 06:04, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Looks like many of you are used to using MLA style for citations — but most of the citations in this article use a footnote format instead. There's no one format required for Wikipedia, but it should be standardized throughout the article. Since most of the citations are in footnote format, I recommend converting the parenthetical citations that have been added into footnotes. It's not too hard. Here are the basics:
 * Start with the opening ref tag:
 * That's it! Simple, eh? In the article code, the citation will look like this:   When someone reads the article, they will see a hyperlinked footnote; clicking it will take the user to the "Notes" section at the bottom of the page, where the info is. Scartol  •  Tok  13:15, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

awesome, i was wondering about that. thanks --Trowan (talk) 18:55, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

Wiki-links or Internal links
Hey group,

Just so you know, ONLY wikilink or add an internal link something once! ie the first time it appears in a paragraph!!!!!! do not overuse wiki links! --Trowan (talk) 17:38, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Actually the general policy is to wikilink the word/phrase the first time it appears in the body of the article, and not again afterward.. Here's the guideline for your convenience: WP:OVERLINK. Cheers! Scartol  •  Tok  20:23, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

Strange description of the fall of Árbenz
Is this politically motivated, or poorly worded?

The article currently has the US backing Guatemala against rebels. But the rebels win, overthrowing Árbenz.

Except that those rebels are US-backed reactionary rebels.

Questions
I believe that I've understood and correctly used/explained most of the historical Indian terms used in this article, but;

1. What is Mughal Sardari?

From the context I would guess its a position (general?) in the Mughal army.

2. What is the correct spelling of Shayeste Khan?

There seems to be inconsistency on how this name is rendered in English characters. I also found Shaista Khan in Shivaji.

3. Could someone confirm that Killedar means a garrison commander?

Or if it doesn't correct it.

4. I assume (from context) that Durga also means fort or maybe a fortified town.

Is that correct? But see current article Durga.

5. We're missing article for Sangram Durga, or maybe we're missing an article for Sangram and an expansion of Durga

6. Finally just general help with standardising the spelling and capitalisation of the historical terms and names (and titles) would be very helpful!

As you can see I'm not knowledgeable about Indian history. --Cje 08:51, 9 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Sacrament meeting

Sacrament meeting is the primary weekly Sunday worship service in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).

Sacrament meetings are held in the chapel of a meetinghouse by each individual ward (or branch). The service is presided over by the congregation's bishop (or branch president), unless a higher authority is present, such as the stake president or a general authority. Anyone is invited to attend, whether they are a member of the church or not. Sacrament meeting does not occur on the weeks when stake or district conferences, or the church's general conference are held.

Those attending sacrament meeting generally wear "Sunday formal" dress. Men wear suits and ties, and women wear modest dresses or skirts. Children are also encouraged to attend.

History
The first occurrence of a similar gathering to the current sacrament meeting occurred on April 6, 1830. This coincided with the organization of the Church of Christ, the forerunner of the LDS Church. This meeting included the administration of the Lord's Supper and the ordination of Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery as the "First Elder" and "Second Elder" of the church.

For much of the history of the church, sacrament meeting was held separately from other church meetings, often held on weekdays or on Sunday mornings. Sacrament meeting was the last meeting of the day on Sunday. In 1980, the church's First Presidency started the current "block" schedule, in which almost all church meetings were held in the space of three hours.

In October 2018, church president Russell M. Nelson announced plans to consolidate the Sunday meeting schedule. As a part of these plans, sacrament meeting was shortened from seventy to sixty minutes, and local church leaders were instructed to limit the announcements at the beginning of the meeting.

Preparation

 * Shortly before the start of the meeting, the bread and water – which constitute the sacrament – are prepared by one or more young men, generally teachers in the church's Aaronic priesthood.
 * After the bread and water are readied, they are covered with a formal shroud, which resembles a tablecloth.
 * Invitations to give prayers are generally extended by members of the bishopric or branch presidency.

Meeting

 * First, the conducting officer (usually a member of the bishopric or branch presidency) welcomes those in attendance.
 * An opening hymn is sung by the congregation.
 * The invocation, or opening prayer, is given by a member of the congregation.
 * Church business is conducted. This includes the announcement of assignments and callings, the call for consent on various issues and assignments, and performance of ordinances, such as naming and blessing children and the confirmation of recently baptized converts. As with the announcements, this is optional and is only conducted when necessary.
 * A sacrament hymn is sung by the congregation. As the song is sung, the priests of the Aaronic priesthood prepare the bread by breaking it into small (one inch or so) pieces. After this, the priests bless the bread. It is distributed to the congregation by deacons. After this, the priests bless the water, which is distributed in like manner. The prayers used are exact (see Doctrine and Covenants, ). If a mistake is made in the prayer, it is repeated from the beginning. Where sufficient number of Aaronic Priesthood holders are not available, Melchizedek priesthood holders prepare, bless, and pass the sacrament, as needed.
 * Various sermons, or speeches, also known as "talks", are delivered by previously assigned members of the congregation. Occasionally, visiting officials, such as members of the stake high council or stake presidency may speak. Often, congregational hymns or special musical numbers are included before or between talks. If it is Fast Sunday, (typically the first Sunday of every month), the congregation is invited to share their testimonies as they feel inclined, rather than hearing prepared talks. (See Fast and testimony meeting.)
 * The meeting closes with another congregational hymn and a benediction, or closing prayer.

Sacrament meetings usually last approximately 60 minutes. Other church meetings that follow, or precede, sacrament meeting include Sunday School and Relief Society or priesthood quorum meetings for adults; Sunday School classes, Young Women and Young Men classes for the youth; and Primary classes and a nursery for children. The sum of these meetings constitute Sunday services and typically lasts two hours.

Significance
Members of the LDS Church believe that the ordinance of the sacrament allows them to renew the covenants they made when they were baptized. It is meant as an opportunity to be forgiven for their shortcomings during the week and to begin anew with renewed conviction.

With the approval of the bishop, priesthood holders may administer the sacrament to those who are homebound or otherwise cannot attend sacrament meeting.

A collection plate is not passed as part of sacrament meeting, or any other church service. The church operates by lay ministry, and local leaders, teachers, and speakers are not compensated. Church members make private contributions to the church, including tithing.

Talk:George Wallace

Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment
This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 19 October 2021 and 17 December 2021. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Sheryl00.

First Republican
The article states in "Change of views before final term" that Emory Folmar would have been the first "Republican to be elected Alabama governor for the first time in the state's history" but this is contradicted by the List of Governors of Alabama which have William Hugh Smith and David P. Lewis as the 21st and 23rd governors of Alabama, both republicans, can some one please clarify this discrepancy?--Liamdavies 2:24, 8 November 2007 (+10GMT)
 * Good catch. Those were Reconstruction-era Republicans, when many former Confederates were disenfranchised, briefly breaking Democratic hold. I've corrected the article. CAVincent (talk) 03:03, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Missing some history
Shouldn't there be some reference to Wallace's involvement in the outcome of the Selma to Montgomery marches? I was surprised to find no mention of it--Stvfetterly 19:37, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

I was also surprised at how little attention is given to race in this entry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:283:8300:45D0:0:0:0:13B8 (talk) 11:07, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

A very minor point
What Wallace was in during WW II technically wasn't the U.S. Air Force, which didn't formally begin until 1947. He was in either the 'Army Air Corps' or the 'Army Air Force', which were certainly the predecessors to the USAF. Also, did he "enlist" or was he a commissioned officer (like most but certainly not all college-educated personnel were)? His rank would be a nice detail – and if he were actually a pilot, then he was almost certainly an officer.Rlquall 02:34, 8 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Actually, he was in the United States Army Air Forces. There never was an "Army Air Force."  (See the extensive discussion at the USAAF link).--Jpbrenna 03:00, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
 * I think the prior editor meant the USAAF by 'Army Air Force' (personal attack removed) 123.255.22.234 (talk) 10:09, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Speculation
With regards to:

 * It was perhaps because of the constant pain from his injuries that Wallace realized the harm his racist rhetoric and views had caused African Americans.

This seems to be to be entirely speculative -- it's not obvious that paralysis would lead to an understanding of racial oppression -- so unless anyone can justify it (e.g. with something Wallace said) I will remove it soon. --Saforrest 20:20, May 10, 2005 (UTC)

 * It certainly seems to be true (most of my family on my father's side lives in Alabama), but it is certainly a matter of perception and speculation, not of fact, and I would suggest that it should be removes unless someone come up with documented evidence very soon. Rlquall 00:27, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

It's not only speculation but there is good reason to believe that such a "change of heart" was not necessary. Wallace's early background and his close association with Big Jim Folsom seems to indicate a very moderate attitude on racial matters, for the time and place, and only opportunism and total lack of scruples took him down the racist path. When that didn't work anymore, it didn't work anymore. 65.79.173.135 (talk) 21:14, 30 November 2009 (UTC)Will in New Haven65.79.173.135 (talk) 21:14, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

 * I'd think it's also speculative that he ever truly believed he'd done anything wrong. His "turnaround" happened later in life after he'd lost close friends...and he could well have just been trying to tie up loose ends and improve his image as the end of life approached. You could say his actions changed, (long after the fact, as it were), but we'll never know what his real stance was, inside. Codenamemary (talk) 21:01, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Brain fever
What is this "brain fever" the article talks about? It sounds like he had malaria. Maybe he was treated with Atabrine, which, if the dosage isn't very carefully controlled, bores holes in your brain and can give you nerve and heart damage. They used it a lot during the war, and didn't realize how bad its side effects were until it was too late. They just new it helped with quinine-resistant strains of malaria, which they were desperate to find a medication for at the time. Anyway, the stuff was often bad news: Charles Orde Wingate went nutso after they gave it to him and tried to kill himself in the hospital. So maybe that's where Wallace's nerve damage come from? Can somebody find out? "Brain fever" is pretty vague. Lots of politicians who never heard a shot fired in anger seem to have that disease ;) --Jpbrenna 03:00, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Redemption
Did the Alabama African-American community accept Wallace's apology? Youngamerican 20:29, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * I think the second picture at this article on George Wallace gives some good evidence that yes, his apology was accepted. --Dylan Thurston 18:35, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

He was not forgiven for his racist actions. He is still held in high contempt in the Black community. His actions as well as others during the civil rights movement will never be forgotten. A true symbol of bigotry in U.S. history.

Alvin A. Harris —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.232.153.118 (talk) 21:39, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

One reason the Alabama Black community cannot and will not forgive Wallace is that they had very good indications when he was a young man and even in his years as a judge that he was not the bigot he turned out to be. He persecuted Blacks, not out of ignorance and hatred learned at his mother's knee but out of sheer opportunism. He knew better. That made him worse, in the opinion of many, than mad-dog imbeciles like Lester Maddox. 65.79.173.135 (talk) 21:20, 30 November 2009 (UTC)Will in New Haven65.79.173.135 (talk) 21:20, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Morrissey
While I highly doubt that Neo-Nazi, right-winger racist types who look up George Wallace biographies probably have no idea who I'm talking about (they probably write him off as a "faggy Brit", the pic at the top of the article looks like Morrissey. Just a thought. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.165.87.40 (talk • contribs).

You mean the picture of him standing in the doorway? I don't think you've got to be a right wing nazi to want to read the article, I found the fact that he renounced his previous views and his candid admission that he used racism as a means to election very moving.

The Nazis were socialist and thus left wing. Nearly all segregationists were democrats and also advocated increased welfare and social programmes making them left wing.

NOT SO AT ALL. The Nazis were neither socialist nor left-wing. Not by a long shot. The Nazi party was originally a small working-class party with a vaguely socialist agenda; that's why it was called the National Socialist German Workers Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei). When Hitler and his cronies took over that party, they didn't bother to change the name, with the result that they have always been known by the name of that party, "nazi" being short for "national socialist" ("nationalsozialistische"). But that's merely a word. There was and is actually nothing socialist about Nazis. Much less is there anything left-wing about them. Hitler actually tried to change the name to Social Revolutionary Party, but his proposal was nixed.

 * Oh, absolutely.
 * So according to you, desegregation was a Republican idea all along? It wasn't Truman who desegregated the military, it wasn't Johnson who passed the Civil Rights Act, oh no, none of that ever happened, did it (personal attack removed)?  The GOP dropped racial equality from its platform around 1900 and never got it back.  Desegregation after that was always advanced by Northeastern *LIBERAL* Democrats, who were willing to lose the South and therefore their political supremacy in order to bring about racial equality.  What did Republicans do?  They picked up the racist vote and sold out Lincoln's ideals for a chance at political supremacy.  Give yourselves a hand, boys.
 * "Nearly all segregationists were democrats and also advocated increased welfare and social programmes making them left wing."
 * The segregationists *were* leftists throughout FDR's administration. And why shouldn't they be?  The South benefited more than any other region from the New Deal.  But then they found out that their hard-earned tax money was also going to (shudder) black people - can you imagine?  A problem that was compounded when Truman desegregated the military and the party slid slowly more and more towards racial liberalism.  Which was when the Southern Democrats slowly started distancing themselves from liberalism and the New Deal legacy.
 * "The Nazis were socialist and thus left wing."
 * Ah yes, the shameless GOP "everybody who disagrees with me is a NAZI! thing. Here's a question; if the Nazis were socialist, why the hell was private property both respected and encouraged (Mussolini called it "a right and a duty") in Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy?  Why were all their economic reforms in favor of the business sector (abolishing unions, requiring workers to get the consent of their previous employer before finding a new job)?
 * Oh, another question; where the FUCK was the pro-rugged individual, pro-personal freedom Republican Party at the time when the Nazis actually existed, and actually were a threat to mankind? Oh, that's right.  Using every ounce of political power they had left to keep the country out of war, lest their sponsors in the business sector be forced to stop trading helium to Germany, or oil to Japan.

 * After you spewed all that vitriol, I have to ask: you do know that Wallace, whom this web page concerns, was a Democrat, right? 68.46.183.96 (talk) 08:30, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * He was a Southern Democrat or a Dixiecrat. He left the Democratic Party over race and civil rights, when he ran as a member of the American Independent Party in 1968.  He briefly sought the Democratic nomination in 1972, but I guess that was because he realized the black people could vote, and he would need their support.  Also, if "Republicans" were so much in favor of civil rights, explain this:  At the time the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed, there were 11 Southern Republicans in Congress:  1 in the Senate, and 10 in the House.  All eleven of them voted against the Civil Rights Act.Alexander Springstea (talk) 18:19, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

Erm... Southern Democrats, or Dixiecrats, were Democrats purely because Abraham Lincoln was a Republican. 87.114.210.160 (talk) 17:35, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

September 1963
According to this page, on September 10, 1963 "20 black students entered public schools in Birmingham, Tuskegee and Mobile, Alabama, following a standoff between federal authorities and Gov. George C. Wallace."

There's nothing in the article about this - just the similar standoff in June of that year. It looks like it should be mentioned but I don't know enough about the events to add to the article myself. --Spondoolicks 10:02, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Failed GA and reasons
I have reviewed this article per the criteria in WP:WIAGA and unfortunately had to fail it. The following issues arose for me vis-a-vis the Good Article criteria:

 * 1) It has some organization issues that affect the quality of the article. The section titled "Presidential Ambitions" for example, seems out of place for the flow of the article.  There are other issues in organization as well that interupt the flow and make it hard to follow in places.  (Early Life section separate from the Wives and Children section?  Maybe a unified personal life section would be better... )Also, some section titles have irregular capitalization.  See WP:MOS for more info.
 * 2) The article has some serious referencing issues. Large sections of text, which make assertions of facts, are unreferenced as to where those facts come from.  For example:
 * 3) The entire Entering Politics section
 * 4) Most of the American Independent Party presidential candidate section (there's even a FACT tag there!)
 * 5) The second half of the Second term as governor section
 * 6) The entire Change of views before final term section
 * 7) The entire Wives and children section
 * 8) Most of Wallace in pop culture section
 * 9) Fair use problems with the image "Wallace button.gif", which does not have an adequate Fair Use Rationale.

If these problems can be fixed, feel free to renominate for GA again. Good luck and happy editing. --Jayron32| talk | contribs 23:50, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Paralysis
After Wallace was shot, was he completely paralyzed, or paralyzed from the waist down, or what? The article should be more clear on this. --MasterA113 19:59, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Fixed infoboxes
Jere Beasley was never Governor of Alabama (he never held the office). Beasley was Lieutenant Governor serving as Acting Governor during Governor Wallace's absence (due to assassination attempt injuries). Also List of Governors of Alabama listes Wallace as the 45th Governor (the 45th state Governor), the list numbers Governors by individual (only) even though a governor may have served non-consecutive terms. GoodDay 19:11, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Wallace's gubernatorial number
The List of Governors of Alabama numbers those governor's by individual not by office. Therefore, even though Wallace has served on three separate occasions, he's still only numbered as the 45th Governor. GoodDay 15:06, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Presidential campaign in 1968
George Wallace presidential campaign, 1968 was made by copying George Wallace and they are still almost identical. The copy was kept at Articles for deletion/George Wallace presidential campaign 1968, so the section in George Wallace should be a summary per Summary style.

Symbol of bigotry
Gov. George Wallace's legacy will be forever tarnished. He along with Bull Connor, are true symbols of bigotry in U.S. History. The actions of racist like this man and others brought about the very change they fought so hard to avoid.

Lincoln comparison
Anyone attempting to use Lincoln for a contrasting comparison to Wallace on views about race and segregation would be best be advised to look at the fourth Lincoln-Douglas debate of 9/18/1858.

“I say then I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races, -- that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.”

Lincoln may have possibly changed his views somewhat, but nothing I've ever seen has indicated more than ambivalence on his part. His issue was that slavery was wrong, not discrimination and inequality before the law, as based on race.

Removal of unsourced material
I removed this passage:
 * A black lawyer recalls, "Judge George Wallace was the most liberal judge that I had ever practiced law in front of. He was the first judge in Alabama to call me 'Mister' in a courtroom." Later, when a supporter asked why he started using racist messages, Wallace replied, "You know, I tried to talk about good roads and good schools and all these things that have been part of my career, and nobody listened. And then I began talking about niggers, and they stomped the floor."

because the "black lawyer" quote is unsourced, and the "good roads" quote is not found anywhere on the page linked in the citation. TremorMilo (talk) 18:03, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Seriously? The latter part was sourced, the former part was easily sourceable. Considering that the tag was only placed there this month, this removal is unacceptable. Str1977 (talk) 00:03, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

I practiced law in the South from 1982 to 2000. Once a judge got to know a lawyer, he called him by his first name. If a judge referred to a lawyer as "Mister," it indicated a begrudging acceptance of the status and nothng more.Alexander Springstea (talk) 18:15, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

Dixiecrat addition
Was Wallace ever officially in the Dixiecrat Party of Strom Thurmond? From what I know, he was a Southern Democrat, but nothing really beyond that. If that's the case, there's really no point in listing his affiliation as 'Democratic (Dixiecrat)'. One (talk) 19:08, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

 * No, Wallace was not a Dixiecrat. In fact, to the contrary, Wallace refused to walk out on the Democrats when Thurmond's delegation left the convention. Any such labellings are probably due to Wallace having similar goals and, indeed, leaving the Democrats later to run as a third-party candidate. Recognizance (talk) 07:09, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Religious affiliation
This entry currently gives Wallace's religious affiliation (in a box under his photo) as follows: "Religion Born-again Christian (after 1964) / Baptist (before 1964)"

Biographies I've seen say that Wallace was a Methodist. See, e.g., Jeff Frederick, Stand Up for Alabama: George Wallace, at pp. 113, 355, 429 n.33 (Tuscaloosa: Univ. Alabama Press,  2007).

Can anyone clarify what basis there might be for identifying Wallace as a Baptist rather than Methodist? Eric Alan Isaacson (talk) 19:02, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
 * good point. Carter, Politics of Rage, p 137 quotes Wallace on national TV calling himself a Methodist in 1963.Rjensen (talk) 19:13, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

1968 third party presidential run
Fourth paragraph currently reads: "Wallace retracted the invitation, and chose Air Force General Curtis LeMay instead. LeMay was chairman of the board of an electronics company, and the company would dismiss him if he spent his time running for vice president; Hunt set up a million-dollar fund to reimburse him for any losses." (emphasis mine) - who or what is Hunt? This bit is quite confusing without that piece of information, could someone clarify it please?

Ta! Beccaviola (talk) 12:33, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

PS this page is complaining of a ref error, how do I fix it?

It's Texas oil tycoon H.L. Hunt. He was a vocal opponent of the Democrats and certainly had the money and conservative/southern ties to fund such a campaign. Hunt and his son Bunker were visible supporters of Wallace in '68. I'll see if I can edit that into the paragraph.

Ostensibly
The lead section reads, He is best known for his Southern populist, pro-segregation attitudes during the American desegregation period, convictions he ostensibly renounced later in life. Now I'm no George Wallace fan--the man was a complete demagogue, in my opinion. But this sentence is a bit POV, I believe. Why? To renounce something carries with it the connotation of a public declaration. (See Miriam Webster, "1. to give up, refuse, or resign usually by formal declaration" and Dictionary.com, "2.to give up by formal declaration: to renounce a claim."). As such, the use of the word "ostensibly", which clearly carries the connotation that he did not really do what follows, implies that Wallace was still a segregationist. Now I personally think that leopards don't change their spots; Wallace either was a racist until the day he died or he was a non-racist in 1960 who just wanted to get elected. But the point is, it is a fact that he did make formal, public declarations repudiating his earlier stances (and got a lot of black votes by doing so). So the word "ostensibly" has the effect of smearing him as a potential liar, when in fact, we cannot ascertain that without being able to read his mind or heart. HuskyHuskie (talk) 06:22, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Perhaps one could say he "publicly renounced" prior views, which leaves what he felt inside out of the equation. We have no way of knowing what his true feelings on race were at that later time, either way. Codenamemary (talk) 21:09, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Having no way of knowing what his true feelings on race were, we must defer to what the reliable sources say. Xenophrenic (talk) 22:23, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, I guess someone didn't like "publicly renounced," even though that's at least what we KNOW happened. It got reverted back. I wonder why someone would possibly object to that? I don't think it's in dispute that he publicly renounced his former stance.Codenamemary (talk) 20:29, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

Hope I didn't switch this to earlier version, somehow
The language had been changed in something I added to the lede ("....with unforgiven sin" to "...his sins unforgiven"). I just thought it was better to stick with the phrasing that's in the cited source, as the sincerity of Wallace's "change of heart" is such a contested issue. Anyway, I was comparing the edits, and now it looks like the original phrasing is back (good) but what else did I do (bad)? Ugh. Codenamemary (talk) 01:31, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

Record length of service?
The article seems to say that Terry Branstad is the only person who served longer as a governor than Wallace's 16 years. But that doesn't seem to be true. George Clinton was governor of New York for 21 years (1777-1795 and 1801-1804). I'm not sure if there are others, but this ought to be checked out. john k (talk) 15:16, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

Witheld Knowledge of Wife's Precancer cells
As a cancer patient myself, I find the following sentence troubling in several ways: "In 1961, in keeping with the custom of the time to shield patients from the emotional impact of discussion of cancer, Wallace had withheld information from her that a uterine biopsy had found possibly precancerous cells."

Having been alive in 1961 and having had surgery in 1964, I find it impossible to believe a doctor would withhold critical information from an adult patient but would tell her husband unless there were very extenuating circumstances such as the final days of a terminal illness. This is a very serious allegation being made against the doctor and George Wallace. Also, just how would someone find out about what amounts to a felony if true. I would like to hear some discussion about this matter.TL36 (talk) 22:25, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

 * If Wallace were alive today, we should remove the contentious statement immediately, per Wikipedia's policy on the biographies of living people. However, since he is long dead, and the doctor is not identified, we can consider the accuracy of the material at our leisure. It's not entirely clear, but the statement appears to be referenced to "Carter, 1995". In turn, that seems to be ISBN 0-8071-2597-0 - a book about Wallace and related topics. If we wish to challenge the statement, we should find out more about the book and whether it is a reliable and independent source, and whether it does indeed claim these facts.

 * Relying on personal experience won't help us much - I was born well after the 60's, but I can give you a much later anecdote from personal experience that has some similarities. Strange things happen sometimes.

 * You may very well be right - the book may be wrong, the book may not say that, the book may have been misinterpreted in good faith by the person or people writing this Wikipedia article. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 00:07, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Google Books finds, for me, a preview of a relevant passage based on the ISBN I gave. The preview indicates that the book says (1) the uterine biopsy indicated the "definite" presence of cancer; (2) the doctor informed her of this "shortly after he received the lab report". The short passage available for preview does not mention any involvement by Mr Wallace (no relation to Marsellus Wallace) in these discussions, and specifically says the doctor told Mrs Wallace directly. I'll add some appropriate tags to the disputed sentence in the article. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 00:15, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

 * The sourced pages from Dan Carter's book are given as 310-312 and 317-320. Page 311 and 312 are apparently unavailable on google while page 310 only has three pertinent sentences ending with Mrs. Wallace remarking that the doctors may have gotten rid of the cancer for now but that it would return.  These sentences seem to conclude a passage on Mrs. Wallace's cancer so it seems page 309 would be the one to review but it also is not available.  Pages 317-320 deal with the last stage of her illness with her passing away on page 320. Since the book is discussing her cancer on the given pages, I think Carter's book is indeed meant to be the source of the sentence we are questioning.  However, since the dubious sentence gives the year 1961 and all of these pages deal with events occurring in 1967 and 1968, I wouldn't think seeing the unavailable pages would help.  If something about Mrs. Wallace not being advised of her precancerous cells is actually in Carter's book, I think it's in other pages, possibly earlier in the book.TL36 (talk) 05:13, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Standing in the Schoolhouse Door
There are a number of difficulties with this section.
 * 1) The "our troops" suggest that this is possibly a direct citation from somewhere, but it is not clear where.
 * 2) The Brown v. Board article given as a reference is incorrectly linked, at least for accessing it today. A correct link would be http://www.neh.gov/humanities/2004/marchapril/feature/brown-v-board
 * 3) The article in question does not substantiate the facts stated in any useful way, hence I have not amended the link.

I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, an expert on Wallace, and I do not feel equipped to correct these issues per sé, but they do need to be addressed to improve the quality of the article. PaulJCompton (talk) 09:25, 14 August 2013 (UTC)PaulJCompton

Political party
Does anybody knows George Wallace was a Republican?

George Wallace was a conservative. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.168.148.136 (talk) 01:33, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

Wallace was a Democrat. Not the kind of Democrat we think of today, but we should stick to facts.Chagallophile (talk) 14:53, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

Wallace was a Democrat, during the last days in which the Democratic Party still counted ultra-conservative white Southerners among their coalition. Shortly after his departure, Nixon's 'Southern Strategy' brought about the realignment that sorted all the conservatives into the GOP, and most of the centrists and left-leaning liberals into the Democratic Party. Trilobright (talk) 16:56, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

He was a Democrat for his entire political career, except in 1968 when he was apart of the American Independent Party. After finishing his term as Governor of Alabama, he later revealed he supported George H.W Bush over his two Democratic opponents (1988,1992). However, he was a solid Democrat for all of his life before, including during the Presidencies of Reagan and Nixon. Azaan Habib 22:10, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

Trilobright's mythology of Nixon and the "southern strategy" does not sit well with the fact that apart from in 1976 when Carter won, carried by votes of Southern Democrats, Republicans got 426 or more electoral votes from 1972 until Clinton, who himself continued to win Southern states as a Democrat. In fact it wasn't until Democrats nominated a Northerner (Gore) against a Southerner (Bush) that they lost the South. Also Nixon supported desegregation and even affirmative action. 84.215.97.155 (talk) 04:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

removal of insult
I am taking out the sentence saying Wallace ""earned the title 'the most influential loser' in 20th century U.S. politics." It is not something that can be "earned;" it is a cheap shot when referring to someone who won a major office four times; it is merely the opinion of two people; and it does not belong in the lead paragraph. People often use Wikipedia to insult those that cannot defend themselves, as a way to feel good about themselves, but applying 21st century standards to 1960's society is inappropriate.Chagallophile (talk) 14:48, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

I am also taking out the statement that Wallace "sold his soul to the Devil." Would anyone allow that sentence to exist for other politicians like Hillary Clinton, Jeb Bush, John F. Kennedy, Chester A. Arthur or Abraham Lincoln? No.Chagallophile (talk) 14:52, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
 * "influential loser" No it is not "merely the opinion of two people." It represents analysis by leading scholars based on years of research. Wikipedia reports what the RS discover. The statement is not insulting -- it puts him in the ranks of William Jennings Bryan, Eugene Debs, etc.  Rjensen (talk) 15:00, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I tweaked the wording a bit. Drmies (talk) 15:03, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I tweaked it into this: With four unsuccessful runs for President (three as a Democrat and one on the American Independent Party ticket), he was a loser. However his impact on American politics was enormous. he was given the appellation "the most influential loser" in 20th century U.S. politics, according to biographers.... Rjensen (talk) 15:07, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but that phrase, in Wikipedia's voice, is too strong for my taste. Drmies (talk) 15:09, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I do not think that the Faustian line should be removed if the sourcing is good; the line is clearly given as an opinion, and if that opinion, which is highly relevant, is made by a respectable scholar in a respectable publication, it should stand. But there's the problem. The system of documentation is messed up and unclear. The reference given is Carter 1995, but a. there is no bibliography and b. there is no "Carter 1995" in the notes, not that I can see. There is a Carter 1996, and a few references to it (but it's not cited in the first occurrence, very sloppy), but no 1995. There is a poorly cited Carter 1998, in note 36. Drmies (talk) 15:08, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

Sentence in the lead
The sentence, "He is remembered for his Southern populist and segregationist attitudes during the mid-20th century period of the Civil Rights Movement and activism, which gained passage of federal civil rights legislation in the mid-1960s to enforce constitutional rights for all citizens", is potentially misleading. If read quickly, it could give the impression that Wallace's attitudes gained the passage of civil rights legislation. It would even be pushing it to say that the legislation was a reaction to his stand against integration. I am therefore removing the reference to the legislation and replacing it with the things for which he is best remembered: the 1963 inaugural address and the Stand in the Schoolhouse Door. Scolaire (talk) 12:21, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

A little confusion
I'm a bit confused about a section in this article. In the "Early life" section, it states "...he entered pilot cadet training in the United States Army Air Corps. He failed to complete the course, however, and as a staff sergeant flew B-29 combat missions over Japan in 1945." I am not any expert on things pertaining to this, so I'm curious how Wallace flew combat missions when he did not complete his pilot cadet training? Was the cadet training for something else? Is there another explanation? I'm just writing this so the article can be clarified. --1990'sguy (talk) 15:48, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

Party Affiliation
Wallace was more than just a Democrat during his career. While a series of IP editors are edit warring over the first sentence of the article, the second sentence says, "He sought the United States presidency as a Democrat three times, and once as an American Independent Party candidate, unsuccessfully each time." This seems sufficient to address his two significant party links, especially considering the national significance of his presidential runs. IPs, make your case here rather than edit warring.

Semi-protected edit request on 30 October 2018
Saw this was in the revisions. the sentence "far-right democrat" is not factual. This is blatant propaganda this "far-right" descriptor needs to be removed. This is a historical revision. Also it advances an inaccurate use of political spectrum. A spectrum, must be a spectrum, "used to classify something, or suggest that it can be classified, in terms of its position on a scale between two extreme or opposite points" This means we have defined points. The political spectrum is the space between total freedom and no freedom. Wallace's views would not be towards the right of total freedom. There is no spectrum justification that works to define his believes as being of the "right".05:29, 30 October 2018 (UTC) Theeditfix (talk) 05:29, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Far right is a commonly used term to describe politicians and others who profess views such as ""segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever." Tom (North Shoreman) (talk) 12:50, 30 October 2018 (UTC)

"Right" does not stand for freedom. That is liberalism. Far-right politics stands for Ultranationalism, Nativism, Authoritarianism, Nazism, Neo-Nazism, Fascism, Neo-fascism, Chauvinism, Xenophobia, Racism, Anti-communism, and Reactionary views. Dimadick (talk) 13:23, 30 October 2018 (UTC)

The real problem here is that Democratic Party flip-flopped it’s viewpoint on race, being the party that spearheaded is eugenics in the early part of the 20th century. He was also very much a part of the Democratic Party, which is on the left of the political spectrum, and was also for segregation. You can’t revise history. This edit needs to be removed as it is an obvious attempt at slandering today’s conservatives. You can say his views on segregation were hateful but they didn’t come from the political right. He was clearly on the political left. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Michaeljmaher (talk • contribs) 18:21, 1 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Far right is not the same as a normal conservative, and the democratic party has not always been left wing. Tornado chaser (talk) 18:41, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I would be surprised if Jacksonian democracy is considered left-wing. Dimadick (talk) 16:30, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

Yes he was not far-right, there isn't any such evidence. It's clearly an editor thinking racism = right wing, but racism is not a political ideology - today's Communist China and yesterday's Communist USSR were just as racist in their ethnic cleansing campaigns. I would say he was a segregationist Democrat, but otherwise on the normal political spectrum. Azaan Habib 22:15, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

He was governor three times
Under Governor Wallace's picture on the top-right side of the page, it should say, "47th, 50th and 52nd Governor of Alabama"

He was governor during these years: 1963–1967, 1971–1979 and 1983–1987

My source: https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Governors_of_Alabama

 * The Alabama Department of Archives and History Website as well as the List of Governors of Alabama page lists Wallace as only the 45th Governor of Alabama. If an Alabama Governor serves for multiple non-consecutive terms, as Wallace did, he is still considered to fill only one spot in the list of governors. For example, James Folsom also served non-consecutive terms as Governor but is still only considered the 42nd Governor of Alabama.

Last Term as Governor
In the edit history of the page, some users have edited the infobox section to include incorrect dates of Wallace's last term as governor. The dates of Wallace's last term as governor was from January 17, 1983 until January 19, 1987. Please see the Alabama Department of Archives and History Website.

Portrait description
The description of Wallace's portrait on the infobox dates the image to 1962, on Wikimedia it is undated. However looking at images of Wallace at the time as well as late images of him, it is clear the image was taken at a later date, likely as his gubernatorial portrait in 1971.

Most Recent Electoral Vote for Third Party?
Referring to Wallace’s third party campaign in 1968, the arricle states:

“As of the 2020 Election, he remains the most recent third-party candidate to receive pledged electoral college votes from any state.”

I believe this statement is false because Libertarian candidates John Hospers and Tonie Nathan received a pledged electoral vote from a “faithless elector” in the following cycle (1972). Scott Cousland (talk) 10:46, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

 * This statement is technically correct, as the electoral vote given to the Hospers/Nathan Ticket in 1972 was from a faithless elector, and originally pledged to vote for the Nixon/Agnew Ticket.
 * The statement mentions that Wallace was the "most recent third-party candidate to receive PLEDGED electoral college votes from any state”, pledged referring to the electoral college votes going to the winner of the state, which Wallace won 5 of the 50 states in 1968, those being:
 * -Alabama (Won with 65.9%)
 * -Arkansas (Won with 38.87%)
 * -Mississippi (Won with 48.32%)
 * -Louisiana (Won with 63.46%)
 * and
 * -Georgia (Won with 42.8%)
 * Therefore, the statement is correct and "as of the 2020 Election, [Wallace] remains the most recent third-party candidate to receive pledged electoral college votes from any state.” HistorianL (talk) 18:28, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

George Wallace image dispute
I’ve been noticing that there has been much discussion of which portrait should be used for George Wallace. Any chance we can come to some sort of agreement? I personally find the 1983 portrait to be ugly and the 1962 one to be nicer but that’s just me. (eye)rizz (talk) 00:34, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

Friedrich Tiedemann

Friedrich Tiedemann FRS HFRSE (23 August 1781 – 22 January 1861) was a German anatomist and physiologist. He was an expert on the anatomy of the brain.

Tiedemann spent most of his life as professor of anatomy and physiology at Heidelberg University, a position to which he was appointed in 1816, after having filled the chair of anatomy and zoology for ten years at Landshut, and died at Munich. He was elected member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1827. In 1836, he was elected Honorary Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland.

Life
Tiedemann was born at Cassel in Prussia (now central Germany), the eldest son of Dietrich Tiedemann (1748–1803), a philosopher and psychologist of considerable repute.

Friedrich studied medicine at Marburg, Bamberg and Würzburg Universities from 1798 and graduated in 1802. Undertaking practical experience he gained his doctorate (MD) from Marburg in 1804, but soon abandoned practice.

From 1804, he became a Docent, lecturing in Physiology and Comparative Osteology at Marburg University. In only one year (1805) he was raised to Professor aged only 24. This was as Professor of Zoology, Human Anatomy and Comparative Anatomy at Landshut University. In 1816, he moved to Heidelberg University as Professor of Physiology and Anatomy and remained there until retiring in 1849.

He was elected a Foreign Fellow of the Royal Society of London in 1832 and an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1838.

He died in Munich on 22 January 1861. He is buried in the Alter Südfriedhof in Munich (Old South Cemetery).

Viewpoints
Tiedemann devoted himself to the study of natural science, and, upon moving to Paris, France, became an ardent follower of Georges Cuvier. On his return to Germany, he maintained the claims of patient and sober anatomical research against the prevalent speculations of the school of Lorenz Oken, whose foremost antagonist he was long reckoned with. His remarkable studies of the development of the human brain, as correlated with his father's studies on the development of intelligence, deserve mention.

Tiedemann was one of the first persons to scientifically contest racism. In his article entitled "On the Brain of the Negro, compared with that of the European and the Orang-outang" (1836), he argued based on craniometric and brain measures taken by him from Europeans and black men from different parts of the world that the then-common European belief that Negroes have smaller brains and are thus intellectually inferior is scientifically unfounded and based merely on the prejudice of travellers and explorers.

In 1827, he became a correspondent of the Royal Institute of the Netherlands, and when that became the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1851, he joined as a foreign member. He was elected a Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1849.

Tiedemann was influenced by Jean-Baptiste Lamarck and accepted the transmutation of species. Science historian Robert J. Richards has written that Tiedemann "joined the basic notion of species evolution, of a Lamarckian flavor, with the proposition that higher animals in their embryological development recapitulated the morphological stages of those lower in the scale." Writing in 1913, Hans Gadow noted that Tiedemann in 1814 had identified a basic function of sexual selection in preventing less fit males from propagating, and fossils as showing gradual metamorphosis of species over geological time.

By the 1860s, the tobacco historian Friedrich Tiedemann had reported several cancers of the tongue brought on by smoking.

Family
In 1807, he married Frauline von Holzing. He was later married to Charlotte Hecker.

He had a daughter Elise.

One of Tiedemann's sons, Gustav, was a casualty of the 1848 uprisings.

His son Heinrich immigrated to Philadelphia and became a physician in Philadelphia's Germantown Hospital. Perhaps influenced by his father's work, he objected to the Darwinian contention of a continuity between humans and apes.

Legacy
In 2007, Brazilian geneticist Sergio Pena called Tiedemann an "anti-racist ahead of his time".

Ernst von Dohnányi

Ernst von Dohnányi (Hungarian: Dohnányi Ernő, ; 27 July 1877 – 9 February 1960) was a Hungarian composer, pianist and conductor. He used the German form of his name on most published compositions.

Biography
Dohnányi was born in Pozsony, Kingdom of Hungary (today Bratislava, Slovakia). Born into the old noble Dohnányi family, he was the son of Frigyes Dohnányi (1843-1909) and his wife, Ottilia Szlabey. He first studied music with his father, a professor of mathematics and an amateur cellist, and then when he was eight years old, with Carl Forstner, organist at the local cathedral. In 1894 he moved to Budapest and enrolled in the Royal National Hungarian Academy of Music, studying piano with István Thomán and composition with Hans von Koessler, a cousin of Max Reger.

István Thomán had been a favorite student of Franz Liszt, while Hans von Koessler was a devotee of Johannes Brahms's music. These two influences played an important part in Dohnányi's life: Liszt on his piano playing and Brahms on his compositions. Dohnányi's first published work, his Piano Quintet in C minor, earned approval from Brahms, who promoted it in Vienna. Dohnányi did not study long at the Academy of Music: in June 1897 he sought to take the final exams right away, without completing his studies. Permission was granted, and a few days later he passed with high marks, as composer and pianist, graduating at less than 20 years of age.

After a few lessons with Eugen d'Albert, another student of Liszt, Dohnányi made his debut in Berlin in 1897 and was recognized at once as a performer of high merit. Similar success followed in Vienna and on a subsequent tour of Europe. He made his London debut at a Richter concert in Queen's Hall, with a notable performance of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4. He was among the first to conduct and popularize Bartók's more accessible music.

During the 1898 season, Dohnányi visited the United States, where he gained a reputation playing Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4 for his American debut with the St. Louis Symphony. Unlike most famous pianists of the time, he did not limit himself to solo recitals and concertos, but also appeared in chamber music. In 1901 he completed his Symphony No. 1, his first orchestral work. Although he was heavily influenced by established contemporaries, notably Brahms, it displayed considerable technical skill in its own right. Dohnányi married Elisabeth "Elsa" Kunwald (also a pianist), and they had a son, Hans, in 1902. Hans was to be the father of the German politician Klaus von Dohnányi and of the conductor Christoph von Dohnányi, longtime Music Director of the Cleveland Orchestra. Hans distinguished himself as a leader of the anti-Nazi resistance in Germany and was ultimately executed in the final stages of World War II. In addition to Hans, Dohnányi and Elsa Kunwald also had a daughter, Greta.

Following an invitation by the violinist Joseph Joachim, a close friend of Brahms, Dohnányi taught at the Hochschule in Berlin from 1905 to 1915. There he wrote The Veil of Pierrette, Op. 18, and the Suite in F-sharp minor, Op. 19. Returning to Budapest, he appeared in a remarkable number of performances over the following decade, notably in the Beethoven sesquicentenial year of 1920/1921.

Before World War I broke out, Dohnányi met and fell in love with a German actress (also described as a singer), Elsa Galafrés, who was married to the Polish Jewish violinist Bronisław Huberman. They could not yet marry as their spouses refused to divorce them, but nonetheless, Dohnányi and Elsa Galafrés had a son, Matthew, in January 1917. Both later gained the divorces they sought and were married in June 1919. Dohnányi also adopted Johannes, Elsa's son by Huberman.

During the short-lived Hungarian Soviet Republic of 1919, Dohnányi was appointed Director of the Budapest Academy, but a few months later the new interim government replaced him with the prominent violinist Jenő Hubay after Dohnányi had refused to dismiss the pedagogue and composer Zoltán Kodály from the Academy for his supposedly leftist political position. However in 1920, with Admiral Horthy becoming Regent of Hungary, Dohnányi was named Music Director of the Budapest Philharmonic Orchestra and as such promoted the music of Béla Bartók, Zoltán Kodály, Leo Weiner and other contemporary Hungarian composers. That same 1920 season, he performed the complete piano works of Beethoven and recorded several of his works on the Ampico player-piano-roll apparatus. He gained renown as a teacher. His pupils included Andor Földes, Mischa Levitzki, Ervin Nyiregyházi, Géza Anda, Annie Fischer, Hope Squire, Helen Camille Stanley, Bertha Tideman-Wijers, Edward Kilenyi, Bálint Vázsonyi, Sir Georg Solti, Istvan Kantor, Georges Cziffra and Ľudovít Rajter (conductor and Dohnányi's godson). In 1933 he organized the first International Franz Liszt Piano Competition.

In 1937 Dohnányi met Ilona Zachár, who was married with two children. By this time, he had separated from his second wife Elsa Galafrés. He and Ilona travelled throughout Europe as husband and wife, but were not legally married until they settled in the United States. After Dohnányi's death, Ilona, in her biography, launched a campaign to quell his reputation as a Nazi sympathizer. Peter Halász continued this in an article titled "Persecuted Musicians in Hungary between 1919–1945", which portrayed him as a "victim" of Nazism, and by James Grymes, who in his book called Dohnányi saw him as "a forgotten hero of the Holocaust resistance".

In 1934 Dohnányi was once again appointed Director of the Budapest Academy of Music, a post he held until 1943. According to the 2015 entry on Dohnányi in New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, "From 1939 much of [Dohnányi's] time was devoted to the fight against growing Nazi influences." By 1941 he had resigned his directorial post, rather than submit to the anti-Jewish legislation. In his orchestra, the Budapest Philharmonic he managed to keep on all Jewish members until two months after the German invasion of Hungary in March 1944, when he disbanded the ensemble. In November 1944 he moved to Austria, a decision which drew criticism for many years. Musicologist James A. Grymes has defended Dohnányi's actions during the war, crediting his solidarity with Jewish colleagues and his actions to help some escape from Nazi-occupied countries.

From 1949, Dohnányi taught for ten years at the Florida State University School of Music in Tallahassee. He became an honorary member of the Epsilon Iota chapter of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia fraternity there. He and his wife Ilona became American citizens in 1955.

In the United States, he continued to compose and became interested in American folk music. His last orchestral work (except for a 1957 revision of the Symphony No. 2) was American Rhapsody (1953), written for the sesquicentennial of Ohio University and including folk material, for example, "Turkey in the Straw", "On Top of Old Smokey" and "I am a poor wayfaring stranger".

His last public performance, on January 30, 1960, was at Florida State University, conducting the university orchestra in Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4, with his doctoral student, Edward R. Thaden, as soloist. After the performance, Dohnányi traveled to New York City to record some Beethoven piano sonatas and shorter piano pieces for Everest Records. He had previously recorded a Mozart concerto in the early 1930s in Hungary (No. 17, in G major, K. 453, playing and conducting the Budapest Philharmonic),and also his own Variations on a Nursery Tune, the second movement of his Ruralia hungarica (Gypsy Andante), and a few solo works (but no Beethoven sonatas) on 78 rpm. He had also recorded various other works, including Beethoven's Tempest Sonata and Haydn's F minor Variations, on early mono LPs.

Dohnányi died of pneumonia on 9 February 1960, in New York City, ten days after his final performance, and was buried in Tallahassee, Florida, where he had taught at the university for ten years.

Influence and legacy

 * The BBC issued an LP recording taken from one of his last concerts, heard in 1959 at Florida State University, in which he played Beethoven's piano sonata Op. 31 No. 1 and Schubert's piano sonata D. 894. The Testament label has reissued the recital on CD in a set that also includes three of the pianist's own short pieces that he played there as encores, a short recital of his works that he played at the 1956 Edinburgh Festival, and a few that were broadcast on the BBC in 1936.
 * Dohnányi's three volumes of Daily Finger Exercises for the Advanced Pianist were published by Mills Music in 1962.
 * The Warren D. Allen Music Library at Florida State University's College of Music holds a large archive of Dohnányi's papers, manuscripts and related materials.
 * The Hungarian government posthumously awarded him its highest civilian honor, the Kossuth Prize, in 1990.
 * An International Ernst von Dohnányi Festival was held at Florida State University in 2002. The LSU professor Milton Hallman was a student of his and in 1987 recorded a CD called Works For Piano containing some of Dohnányi's most notable music.

Compositions
Dohnányi's composing style was personal, but very conservative. His music largely subscribes to the Romantic idiom. Although he used elements of Hungarian folk music, he is not seen to draw on folk traditions in the way that Bartók or Kodály do. Some characterize his style as traditional mainstream Euro-Germanic in the Brahmsian manner (structurally more than in the way the music actually sounds) rather than specifically Hungarian, while others hear very little of Brahms in his music. The very best of his works may be his Serenade in C major for string trio, Op. 10 (1902) and Variations on a Nursery Tune for piano and orchestra, Op. 25 (1914). His Second symphony is a major work which he composed during the Second World War. It is uncharacteristically sombre, notably in the third movement, which is grotesque and dissonant.

Brunei International Airport

Brunei International Airport (BIA) (Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Brunei, Jawi: لاڤڠن تربڠ انتارابڠسا بروني ),, is the primary international airport and official airport of entry; one of two airports in the Sultanate of Brunei Darussalam, on the island of Borneo.

Located near Bandar Seri Begawan in the Brunei-Muara District, it serves as the home base and hub for Royal Brunei Airlines (RB). Additionally, the Royal Brunei Air Force (RBAirF) is also headquartered at Royal Brunei Air Force Base, Rimba, which is located opposite the 3,685 by main runway on the north-western side, within the aerodrome's environs. Brunei International Airport serves international destinations across Asia and Oceania, as well as flights to the Middle East and London Heathrow.

History
Commercial air transport in Brunei Darussalam began in 1953, with the establishment of air service links connecting Brunei Town (present-day Bandar Seri Begawan and capital city of Brunei) with Anduki (near the oil town of Seria) in the Belait District. Initial flights linking Brunei to British Malaya, North Borneo, Sarawak, Singapore, and overseas destinations were primarily provided by Borneo Airways and Malayan Airways. Airport services were operated from the Berakas area at an old runway site built by the Japanese during World War II. It was known then as Brunei Airport.

The growth in popularity of air travel in the 1970s resulted in a significant increase in civil aviation. Suddenly, the old airport at Berakas was swamped with activity, operating beyond its capacity. This situation prompted the government to scout for a new site to build a modern international airport. The construction of a new airport began in 1970, in Mukim Berakas in the Brunei-Muara District, because this location was easily accessible from all areas of the country. The airport became operational in 1974, and its runway was one of the longest runways in the far east.

In tandem with these developments, Royal Brunei Airlines, initially known as Royal Brunei, took flight on May 14, 1975, utilising the newly constructed Brunei International Airport as its hub. Founded on 18 November 1974, the airline marked its inception as a significant milestone in the burgeoning era of Brunei's aviation history.

Expansion
In 2008, it was announced that a study to review necessary expansions and modifications was completed, and a masterplan was written up soon after. The masterplan consisted of different phases, and Phase 1, which included upgrading the existing air-conditioned passenger terminal building and the cargo terminal, was targeted to be completed by end of 2013. Phase 1A was already completed on 1 October 2013, with the opening of the new arrival hall. The capacity of the airport was to be increased to three million passengers by end of 2014. After Phase 1 was completed, Phase 2 was planned be initiated in 2022; this included the construction of a new terminal, which will be able to accommodate up to eight million passengers. Currently, the runway is being upgraded to allow bigger aircraft such as Airbus A380 and Boeing 747 to operate more easily.

Facilities
Brunei International Airport consists of an international terminal which can handle up to three million passengers, a cargo terminal with a capacity of 50,000 tonne of cargo, and a royal terminal where the sultan's flights are based.

Future New Zealand (Dunne)

This party should not be confused with the better-known Future New Zealand, a continuation of the Christian Democrats.

Future New Zealand was the name chosen by Peter Dunne for the party he founded after leaving the Labour Party. After spending several months as an independent, Dunne formed Future New Zealand as a centrist party in late 1994. The new party lasted only a short time before being overtaken by United New Zealand, established by a group of centrist MPs from both major parties. Dunne opted to integrate his Future New Zealand into the larger United in 1995, hoping to establish a broad centrist coalition. Dunne later became leader of United when all its other MPs were defeated in the 1996 election. In 2002, United merged with a different party also named Future New Zealand, and adopted its modern name, United Future.
