Talk:Chagatai Khanate

Duration of the khanate
The Chagatai Khanate split into two parts in the 1340s, the Western Chagatai Khanate and the Moghulistan (or the Eastern Chagatai Khanate), but as the main text of the article suggests, this does not mean that the khanate ended in the 1340s. So I have changed the end year in the infobox to show the durations of the whole khanate, western khanate and the eastern khanate separately. The book "Transnationalism in Ancient and Medieval Societies: The Role of Cross-Border Trade and Travel" (page 82) by Michael C. Howard for example considers the Chagatai Khanate to end in 1687, but I agree there are probably sources giving different end years (although I should have left this message before actually changing the article). --Evecurid (talk) 00:58, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Successors
I recently added the Western Chagatai Khanate and the Moghulistan as successors of the Chagatai Khanate in the infobox because there were such articles. But the article Western Chagatai Khanate was deleted since then. Should it be kept as a successor to the Chagatai Khanate in the infobox of this article? Thanks for suggestions. --Evecurid (talk) 18:29, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Possible Flag
I believe that the supposed flag of the Chagatai Khanate should be added to this article. It should, of course, be specified that it comes fr the Catalan Atlas in the caption. I’m only proposing this because the article for Ilkhanate has the supposed flag on there, and I think it would look good for the same to apply on this article as well. 296cherry (talk) 07:12, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Marauders (Star Trek: Enterprise)

"Marauders" is the sixth episode of the second season of the American science fiction television series Star Trek: Enterprise, the 32nd episode overall. It first aired on October 30, 2002, on the UPN within the United States. The story was created by executive producers Rick Berman and Brannon Braga with a teleplay by David Wilcox. A similar premise had been included in the original pitch for Star Trek by Gene Roddenberry.

Set in the 22nd century, the series follows the adventures of the first Starfleet starship Enterprise, registration NX-01. In this episode, while in search of deuterium, Enterprise discovers a mining colony that is being controlled by Klingons who are bullying the inhabitants and hoarding their supplies. The crew conduct repairs on the colony and train the colonists to fight off the Klingons.

This episode was mostly filmed on location in a quarry in Ventura County, California, and the majority of the guest stars were stunt performers. Both Larry Cedar and Bari Hochwald had previously appeared in different episodes of Deep Space Nine and Voyager. "Marauders" was watched by 5.6 million viewers, the second highest audience for an episode of the second season. Reviews were mixed, with some critics responding negatively to the lack of consequences from the fight sequences, while another praised the characters interactions, and felt that it was a good example of the western genre.

Plot
Captain Jonathan Archer (Scott Bakula), Sub-Commander T'Pol (Jolene Blalock) and Commander Charles "Trip" Tucker III (Connor Trinneer) fly down to a small colony of 76 miners in order to trade for deuterium. They initially try to barter with Tessic (Larry Cedar), the colony's leader, but he appears reluctant to part with any of the 80,000 liters in inventory, which is being held for 'someone else'. After negotiations, a deal is struck − 200 liters of deuterium for four power cells and whatever medical supplies Enterprise can spare, on the proviso that the Enterprise crew can fix two offline pumps in two days.

Despite deuterium being a valuable commodity, Archer is startled by the lack of basic medical supplies and the run-down nature of the colony. The reason becomes apparent when seven Klingons show up to collect deuterium according to their 'regular arrangement'. When Tessic informs Korok (Robertson Dean), the leader of the Klingons, that they do not have all the deuterium because two pumps were not working, Korok hits him and gives them four days to meet the order. Later, when Tucker and Archer attempt to talk them into fighting against the Klingons, Tessic tell them to take their 200 liters and leave. Leaving does not sit well with Archer and he convinces the leader to resist with their support.

On Enterprise, T'Pol teaches some of the colonists how to evade edged-weapon attacks (from Vulcan martial-art 'Suus-mahna'), while Ensign Hoshi Sato (Linda Park) and Lieutenant Malcolm Reed (Dominic Keating) teach other colonists how to fire their weapons more accurately. Archer and Tucker then suggest the colonists shift the entire colony to the south 50 meters. When the Klingon marauders arrive, the colony appears deserted and silent. Finally the defenders show themselves, and in the ensuing fight the Klingons are lured into an area surrounded by the capped-off deuterium well heads. On cue, the wells are ignited, surrounding the Klingons with flames. Tessic then tells the Klingons to leave and never come back. After they depart, Archer is rewarded with 2,000 liters of deuterium by the grateful miners.

Production
The initial pitch for Star Trek by Gene Roddenberry included a similar episode premise called "Kentucky, Kentucky". This story would have had Captain Robert M. April and the crew of the S.S. Yorktown visit a human colony which had been previously attacked by Viking-like aliens. This resulted in the colonists reverting in appearance to that seen during the American frontier-era. April and his crew band together to help the colonists fight off the aliens.

Executive producers Rick Berman and Brannon Braga developed the story, which was turned into a teleplay by David Wilcox. It was directed by Mike Vejar, his fourth episode of the series, although he had also developed several more episodes of the other series in the franchise. Filming on "Marauders" began on August 21, 2002, utilising the standing ship sets. The shoot on the following day mostly took place on a sound stage, while the third day's on set filming used the shuttlepod set as well as a newly created ship's gym set. The remainder of the eight days filming took place on location at a quarry in Ventura County, California, located about an hour's journey north west of Los Angeles. Temperatures were mild for that time of year, but the actors were still told to wear sunscreen and drink plenty of water. The actors portraying the Klingons joined on the second of the five days on location, with the majority of them played by stunt men. According to Bakula, the set used for the colony was the largest built so far for Enterprise.

Robertson Dean played the sole speaking Klingon, he had previously appeared in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Face of the Enemy". Other members of the guest cast included Cedar, portraying the colonist Tessic, who had previously appeared in individual episodes of both Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Voyager. Likewise, Bari Hochwald also appeared in those two series. While appearing in "Marauders", she was also performing in the play Fedunn at the Odyssey Theatre in Los Angeles.

Reception
"Marauders" was first broadcast on the UPN within the United States on October 30, 2002. It was watched by 5.6 million viewers, equating to Nielsen ratings of 3.6/6 percent. This meant that the episode was watched by 3.6 percent of possible viewers, and 6% of those watching television at the time. This was the second most watched episode of the season, behind "A Night in Sickbay", which was broadcast a week prior.

J.C. Maçek III, writing for PopMatters, described "Marauders" as forming the first part of a loose trilogy of episodes within the second season focusing on re-introducing the Klingons to the series. The following episodes in the group were said to be "Judgment" and "Bounty". Jamahl Epsicokhan at his website Jammer's Reviews gave the episode two out of four, said that there was nothing exciting in "Marauders", and that the action sequences towards the end were unrealistic because despite all the apparent violence, not a single person even gets injured during the scene. He called the general premise "classic Trek", but that it lacked depth and didn't pose any interesting questions. He summed it up by saying it was "a bloodless, light-as-a-feather action show with handsome production values but absolutely and positively no edge."

Michelle Erica Green, reviewing the episode for TrekNation, said that the episode seemed to follow the same story as the 1998 animated film A Bug's Life, but was very much set in the western genre which inspired Roddenberry's original Star Trek pitch, with other comparisons to the 1960 film The Magnificent Seven. She felt that there was several scenes which enabled some character building moments for Hoshi, Travis Mayweather and Tucker, and described it overall as "a decent genre piece with good character work". In his 2022 rewatch, Keith DeCandido of Tor.com gave it five out of ten.

The Digital Fix noted this as an example of using the Klingons to provide a recognizable villain for the episode.

Home media
The first home media release of "Marauders" was part of the season two DVD box set, released in the United States on August 7, 2005. A release on Blu-ray Disc for season two occurred on August 20, 2013.

Society for Advancing Business Editing and Writing

The Society for Advancing Business Editing and Writing is an association of business journalists. Originally founded as the Society of American Business Editors and Writers, in 2018, it changed its name "as part of a broader effort to embrace a global focus on business journalism." Its headquarters is at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University in Phoenix, Arizona.

History
The Society of American Business Editors and Writers, or SABEW, was formed in 1964 to promote superior coverage of business and economic events and issues.

The movement began when the late R.K.T. (Kit) Larson, former associate editor of The Virginian-Pilot in Norfolk, Virginia, began talking with Charles C. Abbott of the University of Virginia about "the generally poor reporting of business news in the country's press". Larson organized several small seminars, and in 1961 put together a three-day session that attracted 60 business editors and writers. The success of that seminar resulted in another in 1963.

A permanent organization took shape in 1964 when the Society of American Business Writers held its first meeting in New York City. Joseph Livingston served two terms as the first president of the organization in 1964 and 1965. In 1984, the Society took a major step by voting to place its offices at the University of Missouri School of Journalism. In 2009, the Board of Governors voted to move the Society's headquarters to Arizona State University's Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication in downtown Phoenix, where it was established in September of that year.

Membership
Since 1990, SABEW began offering institutional memberships, and now entire business staffs at major newspapers, business journals, business weeklies, wire services, online publications, and broadcast outlets are members. By 2010, the SABEW has more than 3,400 members are from North America and several countries.

As part of its mission, SABEW sponsors an annual convention and specialized reporting conferences. Since the mid-1990s, it has recognized the best in business and financial news coverage with the annual Best in Business Awards. SABEW has a Canada Chapter which conducted its first Toronto event in 2010.

Talk:Sangguniang Kabataan

Untitled comment
THESE CLAN IS INVITING YOU TO JOIN AND FEEL THE DIFFERENCE...

I am concerned with the way the Sangguniang Kabataan article is being given more importance rather than the Katipunan ng Kabataan.

Writers seemed not to understand the basic provisions in the Local Government Code of 1991 which is the source law on the creation of the Katipunan ng Kabataan - as a nationwide government sponsored mainstream youth organization. The Sangguniang Kabataan is only a creation out of the existence of the Katipunan ng Kabataan. And because the Sangguniang Kabataan or SK is well-publisized rather than the KK, people tend to understand that it is only the SK that exist.

Added here, is the lack of articles on historical connection between the SK and KB or the Kabataang Barangay. My articles on Katipunan ng Kabataan and the Kabataang Barangay had been deleted. Researchers then would be content with article on Sangguniang Kabataan which very limited in scope.

Truthfully, the change of Katipunan ng Kabataan from Kabataang Barangay is purely political in nature. When President Aquino assumed the presidency, almost all Marcos-created things would be changed. Senator Pimentel, a staunch Aquino ally, who authored the Local Government Code, would likewise change the name of the organization from Kabataang Barangay to Katipunan ng Kabataan.

Thus, all last term elected KB officials would then become the transition SK officials, although the first election for KK officials was held only in 1992 - a year after the Local Governmetn Code of 1991 took effect. The last KB election was held before the 1986 EDSA Revolution. Since KB election were not mandatorily simultaneous unlike the present election for SK officials of the KK, it happened that in some parts of Manila and elsewhere in the Philippines, election for KB officials took place even after the EDSA Revolution.

Next thing is, what most writers don't seem to understand is that, Sangguniang Kabataan is born out of the Katipunan ng Kabataan. Sangguniang Kabataan is supposed to refer to the elected officers of the Katipunan ng Kabataan. SK in short is set of officers not an organization. KK is the organization. SK is federated but KK is not. After every election, the youth seem to forget the existence of the KK because the members themselves become inactive. Who are left to do things are the SK officials, hence they become popular than the KK. KK members only rises when there is KK Assembly which is mandatory under the law. The SK officials are mandated to hold assembly on members of the Katipunan ng Kabataan to report to them what they have accomplished and where their budget have gone. After this assembly, except in some chapters, members forget everything.

Last thing is that Sangguniang Kabataan officials are federated at different levels. But on every level of each federation, only the Chairman, in the case of the Barangay chapter, or the president, in the case of cities and municipalities, represent their chapter in the next level federation. For instance, at the barangay level, all Chairmen of each barangay elect their federation president of their city or municipality. Next, their city (only component city) or municipal president represent the federation to elect their provincial president. At the national level, provincial presidents, president of HUCs and independent component cities elect the national federation president.

In all these federation elections, Katipunan ng Kabataan members have no involvement! That is why they become unknown personalities. The media only talks about the SK.

This is what I intend to correct!

Researchers and writers have limited information on the matter because even the Wikipedia is mislead by some writers on the topic. I'm trying write as much as I can to give the right information to those interested on subject because the Katipunan ng Kabataan I believe is unique only to the Philippine political system. It's an innovation in our system of governance where the youths have direct and active participation in governance at all levels whether in the legislatures or in the executive department.

This policy started during Marcos era in order to counter the massive recruitment by the Left on youths in the countryside.

SK UPDATES
The are some data  reflected in the  Wikipedia   of  SK  that   needs  to  be  updated,  for  instance,  the  members  of the Katipunan  ng mga  Kabataan   is  composed  of  15-21 years  of  age and  not  15-18,  while the age  qualification  for  SK  officials ranges  from  15-17 years  old.

There is  now  pending  in the Lower  House, the Committee on  Local  Government, chaired  by  Congressman  George  Arnaiz  two  proposed House  bills:  the  SK  Reform BILL   and  the  SK  Abolition bill. The proponents  of  the  Sk  Reform bill wanted  the  retention  of the  SK  at  the barangays with  more  significant  role  in  nation  building. The age  qualification for  SK  Officials   raised  from 18-24 years old. The rationale  behind  the  increase  of  age  qualification is  to  make  the  new  SK  generation  legally  responsible and    matured  enough  to be  reliable and  responsive to the call  of  their  respective duties.

On the  other  hand,  the  proponents for the  SK abolition  has  the  option to  replace it  with only  one Youth  Representative in the  barangay and  to  be  elected at  large  together with  other  regular  members  of  the  barangay  kagawads. The same  at  the  Municipal  or  City  level  where the  Youth  Representative  shall  be  elected simultaneously  with the  regular  members  of  the  Sanggunian. There is  no  mechanism  for  the  rule  of  succession, if  a  permanent  or  temporary  vacancy  may  occur.

The SKNF  headed  by the  incumbent President Louise  Gabriel del  Rosario is  pushing  hard  for  the  Sk  reform bill under  the leadership  of congressman, JV Ejercito,Party List Rep. Palatino, Akabayan Rep. Baggao, Congresswoman Maggie  del  Mar, Walden  Bello and the  fighting Congressman  Roilo Golez. The  fate  of  the  SK  organization will  be  tackled  again on  March  15,2012 where  the  LG  technical  working group will decide on the  issue.

Move to Youth councils in the Philippines should be undone
User:Green Giant moved this page from Sangguniang Kabataan to Youth councils in the Philippines. "Sangguniang Barangay" is common in English-language sources and has the benefit of being official. It is similar to Bundestag. Therefore more fitting with WP:CommonName. However I cannot figure out how to undo the move. --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 08:04, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

 * After looking into this, it seems that was the right move since this is an English part of Wikipedia and the name Sangguniang Kabataan is Tagalog.That-Vela-Fella (talk) 17:05, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
 * The test according to my reading of WP:Commonname is not where the word or phrase comes from but what do people speaking English use. Nobody I know calls them "youth councils". They are most common "SK" or "SK Council".  I believe that "Sangguniang Kabataan" is how they are listed on the ballot. See for instance SK Chairman.  My reading of the Wikipedia policy requires us to use the most commonly used name in an English language source and that is "Sangguniang Kabataan" or "SK"  --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 20:59, 17 May 2013 (UTC)

Move discussion in progress
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Sangguniang Panlungsod which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 02:14, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

SK's are independent of each other and therefore have no single leader.
Each SK is independently elected and operate independently of each other. As is the practice in the Philippines, they are brought together for form a variety of federations, including a national federation, but the chairman of the national federation has no say (or little say) over what happens in the tens of thousands of SKs across this large country. The SK Chairmen in each barangay is the chairman of each body. --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 02:46, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
 * User:112.202.18.113 is consistently changing this page to add in the Federation's leader as the leader of Sangguniang Kabataan. In my mind this is not correct. See above.  I hope that User:112.202.18.113 will post here so that we can reach a consensus per  WP:Consensus.--Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 05:56, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Now the User:112.202.15.178 IP address is making the same changes. Please discuss here whether the national federation president should be listed. --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 04:48, 28 September 2013 (UTC)

Merged SK Chairman article into this one
I merged the SK Chairman article into this one. That former was very short and had little information. Further there is little practical difference between the actions of the two. It seems easier and clearer to have one article that can tease out the difference if any. --Iloilo Wanderer (talk) 14:02, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Sloboda Ukraine

Sloboda Ukraine (Слобідська Україна; Слободская Украина), also known locally as Slobozhanshchyna (Слобожанщина, ; Слобожанщина, ), is a historical region in northeastern Ukraine and southwestern Russia. It developed and flourished in the 17th and 18th centuries on the southwestern frontier of the Tsardom of Russia. In 1765, it was converted into the Sloboda Ukraine Governorate.

Etymology
Its name derives from the term sloboda for a colonial settlement free of tax obligations, and the word ukraine in its original sense of 'borderland'. The etymology of the word Ukraine is seen this way among Russian, Ukrainian, and Western historians such as Orest Subtelny, Paul Magocsi, Omeljan Pritsak, Mykhailo Hrushevskyi, Ivan Ohiyenko, Petro Tolochko, and others. It is supported by the Encyclopedia of Ukraine and the Ukrainian Etymological Dictionary.

Geographical extent
The territory of historic Sloboda Ukraine corresponds to the part of the present-day Ukrainian oblast (province) of Kharkiv (in its entirety), and parts of the Sumy, Donetsk, and Luhansk Oblasts, as well as parts of the Belgorod, Kursk, and Voronezh Oblasts of Russia.

Early modern period
Russia gained control over the territory as a result of conquests against the Grand Duchy of Lithuania during the Muscovite–Lithuanian Wars in the 16th century.

According to Russian and Ukrainian sources of the 16th–17th centuries, the region was initially part of the Russian state, which encouraged the settlement of this territory for defensive purposes. It was first colonized by the Russians in the first half of the 16th century and became part of a defense line used against Tatar raids. A second wave of colonization occurred in the 1620s to 1630s, largely in the form of Ukrainian Cossack regiments, who were allowed to settle there to help protect the territory against the Tatars.

The Cossacks who arrived in Sloboda Ukraine were under the sovereignty of Russian tsars and their military chancellery, and were registered in Russian military service. Many Ukrainian refugees arrived from Poland-Lithuania after the Ostryanyn uprising of 1637–1638 and received generous resettlement subsidies from the Russian government. For decades, Ukrainian Cossacks crossed the border into southern Russia to gather livestock. Still, many of them engaged in banditry, prompting Russia to establish a new garrison town on the Boguchar River to defend the land from Ukrainian bandits. Russia also resettled many of the Ukrainian refugees at Valuyki, Korocha, Voronezh, and as far as Kozlov.

Crimean Tatars and Nogai Tatars traditionally utilized the sparsely inhabited area of the Wild Fields on the border of Russia, immediately south of Severia, to launch annual raids into Russian territories along the Muravsky Trail and Izyum Trail. In 1591, a Tatar raid reached the Moscow region, compelling the Russian government to construct new forts, including Belgorod and Oskol in 1593, Yelets in 1592, Kromy in 1595, Kursk in 1597, and Tsarev-Borisov and Valuyki in 1600. Tsarev-Borisov, named after Tsar Boris I, was the oldest settlement in Sloboda Ukraine.

During those raids, regions near Ryazan and along the Oka River suffered the most. The conflict intensified with Russian territorial expansion south and east into the lands of modern Sloboda Ukraine and the mid-Volga River. Sometime between the 1580s and 1640s, the Belgorod Defense Line was constructed in Sloboda Ukraine, featuring several fortifications, moats, and forts, providing security to the region. After several Russo-Crimean Wars, Russian monarchs began to encourage the settlement of the area by Cossacks, who served as a sort of frontier guard force against Tatar raids.

Apart from the Cossacks, the settlers included peasants and townspeople from right-bank and left-bank Ukraine, divided by the Treaty of Andrusovo in 1667. The name Sloboda Ukraine derives from the word sloboda, a Slavic term meaning "freedom" (or "liberty"), and also the name of a type of settlement. The tsar would free the settlers of a sloboda from the obligation of paying taxes and fees for a certain period, which proved very enticing for immigrants. By the end of the 18th century, settlers occupied 523 Slobodan settlements in Sloboda Ukraine.

From 1650 to 1765, the territory referred to as Sloboda Ukraine became increasingly organized according to Cossack military custom, similar to that of the Zaporozhian Host (to the south) and Don Host (to the east). The relocated Cossacks became known as Sloboda Cossacks. There were five regimental districts (polky) of Sloboda Cossacks, named after the towns of their sustained deployment and subdivided into company districts (sotni). Regional centers included Ostrogozhsk, Kharkiv, Okhtyrka, Sumy, and Izyum, while the Sloboda Ukraine Cossack capital was located in Sumy until 1743. From 1753 to 1764, the imperial territory of Slavo-Serbia existed to the south.

Russian Empire Governates
The administration of Catherine the Great disbanded the regiments of Slobozhanshchina and abolished Cossack privileges by the decree of July 28, 1765. The semiautonomous region became a province called Sloboda Ukraine Governorate (Slobodsko-Ukrainskaya guberniya). Saint Petersburg replaced the regimental administrations with Russian hussar regiments, and granted Cossack higher ranks (starshinas) officership, and nobility (dvoryanstvo). In 1780, the governorate was transformed into the Kharkov Viceroyalty (namestnichestvo), which existed until the end of 1796 when it was again renamed Sloboda Ukrainian Governorate. Each administrative reform involved territorial changes.

In 1835, the province of Sloboda Ukraine was abolished, ceding most of its territory to the new Kharkov Governorate and some to Voronezh and Kursk, which came under the Little Russian General Governorship of left-bank Ukraine.

Soviet era
After the establishment of the Soviet Union, Sloboda Ukraine was divided between the Ukrainian SSR and the Russian SFSR. In the early 1930s, Ukrainization ended in the parts of Sloboda Ukraine located in the Russian SFSR, leading to a significant decline in reported Ukrainians in these regions in the 1937 Soviet Census compared to the 1926 First All-Union Census of the Soviet Union. The Ukrainian SSR reorganized its part of the region several times before establishing the borders of present-day Kharkiv Oblast in 1932.

During World War II, the region was occupied by Nazi Germany from 1941 to 1943.

Russian invasion of Ukraine
During the Russian invasion of Ukraine, several battles were fought in the region, including battles fought in Kharkiv, Trostianets, Sumy, Okhtyrka, Lebedyn, Izium, and Bakhmut.

Alice Robertson

Alice Mary Robertson (January 2, 1854 – July 1, 1931) was an American educator, social worker, Native Americans' rights activist, government official, and politician who became the second woman to serve in the United States Congress, and the first from the state of Oklahoma. Robertson was the first woman to defeat an incumbent congressman. She was known for her strong personality, commitment to Native American issues, and anti-feminist stance.

Until the election of Mary Fallin in 2006, Robertson was the only woman elected from Oklahoma to Congress.

Education, teaching, and early public service
Robertson was born at the Tullahassee Mission in the Creek Nation, Indian Territory, to missionaries Ann Eliza (née Worcester) and William Schenck Robertson. Her maternal grandfather was Samuel Worcester, a long-time missionary to the Cherokees. The 1860 United States Census shows the family living in Creek Nation, Indian Lands, Arkansas. Her parents translated many works into the Creek language, including the Bible. In early life, Mary Alice Robertson was self-taught under the supervision of her parents. She attended Elmira College, in Elmira, New York.

Career
Robertson started working as a clerk in the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) in Washington, D.C. (1873 to 1879). She returned to the Indian Territory and taught briefly in the school at Tullahassee. Later she taught at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, from 1880 to 1882. It was the model for Indian boarding schools across the country.

Robertson returned to the Indian Territory, and established the Nuyaka Mission. It was run by Presbyterians who reported to the Creek Council. She taught in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, where she had charge of a Presbyterian boarding school for Native American girls. It eventually developed into Henry Kendall College and then the University of Tulsa.

Robertson was appointed by the BIA as the first government supervisor of Creek Indian schools, and she served from 1900 to 1905. She was next appointed by President Theodore Roosevelt as the United States postmaster of Muskogee, Oklahoma, serving from 1905 to 1913. She was the country's first woman postmaster of a Class A post office. During World War I, she provided a canteen service to local troops in what was the start of the Muskogee Chapter of the American Red Cross.

Representative
Robertson became more involved in politics. She was elected by the 2nd District of Oklahoma as a Republican Representative to the 67th Congress, narrowly defeating the incumbent William Hastings. She was the first woman to defeat an incumbent representative in a general election. She served from March 4, 1921, to March 3, 1923, but was unsuccessful in running for reelection in 1922 and was defeated by Hastings.

Robertson was the second woman to hold a seat in Congress, after Representative Jeannette Rankin from Montana, who served from 1917 to 1919. Before the expiration of her term, Rebecca Felton was appointed for one day to the Senate, and representatives Winnifred Huck from Illinois and Mae Nolan from California both won special elections; they were the third, fourth, and fifth women to serve in Congress. During her term, Robertson became the first woman to preside over the House of Representatives, on June 20, 1921.

Robertson was the first woman elected to Congress after passage of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution guaranteeing women the right to vote. She opposed feminist groups such as the League of Women Voters and the National Women's Party. Robertson voted against bills funding maternity and childcare on the grounds that they were an unwarranted governmental intrusion on personal rights. This earned her the support of the Daughters of the American Revolution, of which she was a member. She also voted against the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.

Later life
Robertson was appointed by President Warren G. Harding as a welfare worker at Veterans Hospital Number 90 at Muskogee in May 1923. She retired to run a 50-acre dairy farm. She also owned a café, named Sawokla. In 1925, her home and café were burned down by her opponents in retaliation for her votes in Congress.

M Ocean View

The M Ocean View is a light rail line that is part of the Muni Metro system in San Francisco, California. Named after the Oceanview neighborhood, it runs between San Jose and Geneva and Embarcadero station, connecting Oceanview, San Francisco State University, and Stonestown Galleria with the city center. The line opened on October 6, 1925.

Route description
The line runs from Embarcadero station in the Financial District to Geneva Avenue and San Jose Avenue near City College of San Francisco in the Balboa Park neighborhood. The downtown portion of the line runs through the Market Street subway, which it shares with three other Muni Metro lines. It continues through the much older Twin Peaks Tunnel, emerging at West Portal Station. From there, it follows West Portal Avenue to the Saint Francis Circle, where it then takes its own right-of-way to 19th Avenue. The portion of the line on 19th Avenue between where it joins 19th near Eucalyptus Drive and Junipero Serra Boulevard is a right-of-way separated from the street. This section has two stations with high-platforms, one at the Stonestown Galleria on Winston Drive and the other at San Francisco State University on Holloway Avenue. It continues on 19th Avenue past Junipero Serra to Randolph Street. At the end of Randolph, the M uses Orizaba Avenue to get to Broad Street and takes that to San Jose Avenue. The rest of the line follows San Jose Avenue to Geneva Avenue, where the line loops around the Metro yard there on the corner opposite from Balboa Park Station.

Operation
The M Ocean View begins service at 5 a.m. on weekdays, 6 a.m. Saturdays and 8 a.m. Sundays, with the end of service occurring around 12:30 a.m. each night. Daytime headways are 10 to 12 minutes.

Service on most of the route is provided by overnight Owl buses during the hours that rail service is not running. The serves the portion between Embarcadero and West Portal, and the  serves the portion between West Portal and SF State. On weekends, the M Ocean View Bus service runs from 5 a.m. until the start of rail service. The bus line largely follows the rail line, but it uses surface streets to parallel sections where the rail line has dedicated rights-of-way.

History
The M Ocean View line began operation on October 6, 1925, as a shuttle service from St. Francis Circle to the wye at Broad and Plymouth in the city's Ocean View District. It was extended through the Twin Peaks Tunnel to the downtown Ferry Building on October 31, 1927, but reverted to a shuttle service on February 27, 1928. The shuttle service was replaced by buses on August 6, 1939, but streetcar service returned on the full length of the line on December 17, 1944. On June 6, 1948, the Transbay Terminal became the inner terminus of the line. While many streetcar lines were permanently converted to buses after World War II, the M Ocean View remained a streetcar line due to its use of the Twin Peaks Tunnel. Service was diverted to Duboce Avenue, Church Street, and 17th Street on December 2, 1972, due to construction of the Market Street subway. On August 30, 1980, the line was extended to Balboa Park BART station. The full line was partially converted to modern light-rail operation with the opening of the Muni Metro system on December 17, 1980. Eureka Valley in the Twin Peaks Tunnel was originally a stop in regular service, but the station was closed in 1972 and replaced, ten years later, by Castro Street Station when the Market Street subway system opened.

Muni Metro
In the early 1970s, Muni began planning an extension of the J Church line over new track to Balboa Park station, then over the M Ocean View line to the high-ridership San Francisco State University station and Stonestown Galleria station. A Final Environmental Impact Statement for the new track was released in 1983; it was opened for non-revenue moves in August 1991 and began revenue service in June 1993. Original plans called for the two existing stations to be rebuilt with high-level platforms, and a pocket track to allow J Church trains to turn back. After objections from neighbors, the pocket track was removed from the plan.

The first phase of the 19th Ave. Platform & Trackway Improvement Project required the line to be replaced by buses south of St. Francis Circle from June 19 to October 23, 1993; the new platforms at the two stations were opened when service was restored, though several minor stops along 19th Avenue were left permanently closed. The second phase required full bustitution beginning on July 30, 1994; rail service was restored to Stonestown on November 19 for holiday shopping, and on the rest of the line on January 28, 1995. Some weekday J and M service was through-routed beginning on March 27, 1995; this lasted until a rail replacement project on the M in February 1998. Full combined J/M service was planned upon completion of the automated train control system and the Muni Metro Turnback; however, this was never implemented even after the construction projects were finished.

In 2010, Muni replaced the rail junction just south of St. Francis Circle station. Rail service south of West Portal station was replaced with buses from May 17 to September 4. The line was temporarily replaced by buses from June 25 to August 24, 2018 due to the Twin Peaks Tunnel shutdown. During that time, a new traffic signal with transit signal priority was installed where the line crosses the northbound lanes of 19th Avenue at Rossmoor Drive, and red transit-only lanes were painted to indicate that drivers must not block the crossing.

On March 30, 2020, M Ocean View light-rail service was replaced with buses due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Light-rail service on the M resumed on August 22, 2020, with the routes reconfigured to improve reliability in the subway. M Ocean View and T Third Street service were interlined, running between Sunnydale station and San Jose and Geneva (Balboa Park station). M Light-rail service was re-replaced by the M Bus on August 25 due to issues with malfunctioning overhead wire splices and the need to quarantine control center staff after a COVID-19 case. M rail service resumed on August 14, 2021, with the line terminating at Embarcadero again, as the K and T are again interlined.

Subway proposal
The M Ocean View moves at only 8.5 to 9.5 mph during afternoon commute hours over a 2 mi distance along 19th Avenue/Highway 1. The slow speed is attributed to trains stopping at multiple busy street crossings. In addition, the majority of riders access 19th Avenue stops from the west side of 19th, since Stonestown Galleria, San Francisco State University and Parkmerced are all located west of 19th. In order to access the stops, which are located in the median of 19th Avenue, pedestrians cross three lanes of traffic and a turn lane. In San Francisco, 55% of severe and fatal pedestrian accidents occur on 7% of its street miles, which includes the 19th Avenue/Highway 1 corridor. In response, the San Francisco County Transportation Authority published studies in 2010 and 2014 which explored options to facilitate pedestrian access and improve travel times.

The full-subway option was chosen for further development and named the Muni Subway Expansion Project (MSXP). Under the preliminary concept for MSXP, the rail line would remain underground past West Portal station. K Ingleside would branch off from the underground line and surface on Junipero Serra Boulevard just south of Saint Francis Circle. M Ocean View will remain underground along the current right of way under West Portal Avenue and 19th Avenue, branching off at Holloway to Parkmerced. The underground line would continue with J Church service along 19th until surfacing just east of the intersection of 19th and Junipero Serra, then continuing on to Balboa Park via Randolph, Broad, and San Jose.

The current West Portal station would most likely have to be redesigned as a two-level station with the K/M lines on the lower level and the L line on the upper level. New underground stations would be constructed at Saint Francis Circle (K/M lines), Winston Drive (M, serving Stonestown), Holloway (J/M, serving SF State), and Parkmerced (M). A potential infill station could be constructed at Ocean Avenue in Lakeside Village. Several existing surface stations would be removed; in most cases, they would be replaced by underground stations. The proposed full subway line would continue past Parkmerced with a long tail track; that tail track could be extended in the future to connect to the Daly City BART station via the M line. The total cost of the full subway line project was estimated at approximately $3 billion.

Muni Forward project
In 2022, the SFMTA begin planning the M Ocean View Transit and Safety Project, a MuniForward project intended to improve reliability of the segment between Junipero Serra Boulevard and Balboa Park station. Initial proposals released that September included transit lanes and platform lengthening on San Jose Avenue, consolidation of several closely spaced stops, and four new traffic signals. A revised proposal in May 2023 eliminated one stop consolidation and two traffic signals, but added modifications to the terminal at San Jose and Geneva. , "quick-build" implementation of some changes is expected to begin in late 2023, with main construction beginning in 2026.

In May 2024, the Federal Transit Administration awarded the SFMTA $4.7 million to construct accessible platforms at eight Muni Metro stops, including three M Ocean View stops.

Station listing
The M Ocean View line stops at large stations for the downtown section of the route and on 19th Avenue and at smaller stops on the rest of the line. Most of the smaller stops are nothing more than a sign on the side of the street designating a stop and a few others are concrete 'islands' in the middle of the street next to the tracks that provide access for wheelchairs. Muni bus routes provide service to all stations and other systems with access to the stations are noted.

K Ingleside

The K Ingleside is a hybrid light rail/streetcar line of the Muni Metro system in San Francisco, California. It mainly serves the West Portal and Ingleside neighborhoods. The line opened on February 3, 1918, and was the first line to use the Twin Peaks Tunnel.

Route description
The outer terminal of the K Ingleside is at Balboa Park station, where it shares a terminal loop plus loading and unloading platforms with the J Church. The line runs in a dedicated median in Ocean Avenue as far as Ocean Avenue/CCSF Pedestrian Bridge station, then in mixed traffic to Junipero Serra and Ocean station. Surface stations are typically boarding islands located between the tracks and the outer traffic lanes. The line again has a short dedicated median on Junipero Serra Boulevard. It joins the M Ocean View at St. Francis Circle station, from where the lines run in mixed traffic to a junction with the L Taraval outside West Portal station. The K Ingleside runs through the Twin Peaks Tunnel and Market Street subway to its inner terminal at Embarcadero station.

Operation
The K Ingleside begins service at 5 a.m. on weekdays, 6 a.m. Saturdays and 8 a.m. Sundays, with the end of service occurring around 12:30 a.m. each night. Weekday daytime headways are 10 minutes. Weekend daytime headways are 12 minutes. Service is provided by overnight Owl buses during the hours that rail service is not running. The serves the portion between West Portal and Embarcadero, and the  serves the portion between Balboa Park and West Portal. The K Owl bus runs a limited number of trips during late nights and early mornings.

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, on weekends, service is provided by K Ingleside Bus, which runs from 5 a.m. until the start of rail service. The bus line largely follows the rail line, but it uses surface streets to parallel sections where the rail line has dedicated rights-of-way.

Market Street Railway
The Market Street Railway opened a branch – built in just six days – of its Mission Street line along Ocean Avenue to Victoria Street on December 4, 1895, to serve the new Ingleside Racetrack. The line was extended to the Ingleside House (where Ocean Avenue now meets Junipero Serra Boulevard) shortly thereafter. The 1906 earthquake damaged many cable car and streetcar lines; in the aftermath, the United Railroads (URR) – successor to the Market Street Railway – closed many cable cars lines and expanded the electric streetcar system. The URR resumed service on the Ocean Avenue line on May 6, 1906; the line (route 12) was soon extended to Ocean Beach via Junipero Serra Boulevard and Sloat Boulevard.

Municipal Railway
The San Francisco Municipal Railway (Muni) opened its K line along with the Twin Peaks Tunnel on February 3, 1918. The line originally ran from St. Francis Circle station along West Portal Avenue, through the tunnel, along Market Street to Van Ness Avenue (joining the J Church at Church Street), and along existing tracks on Van Ness Avenue to Pine Street. On June 1, 1918, the J and K lines were removed from Van Ness Avenue and extended along Market Street to a loop at the Ferry Building.

The existing URR streetcar service on Ocean Avenue formed a barrier to continued Muni expansion into the Ingleside district. On November 25, 1918, the city and the private URR signed the "Parkside Agreements", which allowed Muni streetcars to use URR trackage on Ocean Avenue as far as Harold Avenue, as well as on Taraval Street, in exchange for a cash payment and shared maintenance costs. The K Ingleside line was extended south on Junipero Serra Boulevard and east on Ocean Avenue to Miramar Avenue on February 21, 1919. On May 18, it was extended several blocks further east to Brighton Avenue, then two blocks south on Grafton to a stub-end terminal at Grafton Avenue.

Every other inbound car on Sundays and holidays continued onto the L Taraval line (rather than to downtown) beginning on April 13, 1919; this ended on October 21, 1923, when the L Taraval line was extended to downtown at all times. Every other inbound car operated to the new East Bay Terminal beginning on January 15, 1939; all cars ran there starting on January 1, 1941. Muni bought the Market Street Railway (ex-URR) in 1944; route 12 service was removed from Ocean Avenue on April 8, 1945, leaving just the K Ingleside. On April 21, every other outbound K car was extended on Ocean Avenue and Onondaga Street to Mission Street, providing a direct connection to route.

On January 21, 1951, the crosstown route replaced streetcars on the K and L lines on evenings and holidays. All-rail service returned on May 18, 1952, at which time the trackage on Brighton Avenue was abandoned and replaced with the Phelan Loop at Phelan Avenue near City College. Service past the loop to Mission ended on October 10, 1952, although trackage as far as San Jose Avenue was kept for non-revenue moves to the carhouse.

Service was diverted to Duboce Avenue, Church Street, and 17th Street on December 2, 1972, due to construction of the Market Street subway. On April 23, 1979, the line was lengthened to Balboa Park BART Station. Initially, only supplemental trips running from West Portal and using newly-in-service Boeing Light Rail Vehicles (LRVs) served the new extension, weekdays only, and most K-line service continued to use PCC streetcars running from downtown to Phelan Loop. The LRV shuttle service ended in February 1980, and PCC-operated service was extended to Balboa Park but lasted only four months before the weekday service was replaced by a temporary K-L crosstown route using LRVs (and weekend service cut back to Phelan Loop). Additional changes to the service configuration followed until finally on December 17, 1980, the K line became operated as a through service from Embarcadero Station to Balboa Park, using LRVs, on weekdays only. Weekend service continued to use PCC cars until September 1982, when the Muni Metro became fully operational.

From February 2001 to June 7, 2003, K Ingleside service was cut back to St. Francis Circle and replaced by buses on Ocean Avenue for the Ocean Avenue Reconstruction and Improvement Project, a major street repaving and utility replacement project. The Muni tracks and overhead power system were replaced, boarding islands were reconstructed, and accessible platforms built at Ocean and Lee.

Following service changes on June 30, 2007, the K Ingleside and the T Third Street lines were spliced together inside the Market Street subway tunnel, though keeping their respective line designations, resulting in an upside-down horseshoe-shaped route from Balboa Park to Bayshore and Sunnydale. At West Portal Station, inbound K trains heading towards downtown change their signs to the T line; conversely, at Embarcadero Station, T trains heading into downtown change signs to the K line. The trains show the ultimate destination of the spliced lines rather than the intermediate "terminus" of the individual line.

Later changes
Service on the line was modified from June 25 to August 24, 2018 due to the Twin Peaks Tunnel shutdown. The underground section of the line was closed west of Castro station, while the surface section of the K line was through-routed with the J Church line.

On August 25, 2018, at the conclusion of the shutdown, Muni began running permanently two-car trains on the K/T line (as had been used east of Castro during the shutdown). Because of insufficiently-long boarding islands, the rear car was closed on the Ocean Avenue section of the line. Passengers in the rear car on outbound trains were forced to move to the front car at Junipero Serra and Ocean station, and inbound K trains did not open the rear car to passengers until passing Junipero Serra and Ocean.

On March 30, 2020, Muni Metro service was replaced with buses due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Rail service returned on August 22, 2020, with the routes reconfigured to improve reliability in the subway: K Ingleside and L Taraval service were interlined, running between Taraval and Sunset and Balboa Park station; no K Ingleside or L Taraval service entered the subway. At that time, buses replaced rail service west of Sunset Boulevard to allow for construction. The T Third Street line was interlined with the M Ocean View line instead of the K Ingleside. The forced transfer at West Portal was criticized by disability advocates. K Ingleside light-rail service was replaced again by the K Bus on August 25, 2020 due to issues with malfunctioning overhead wire splices and the need to quarantine control center staff after a positive COVID-19 case.

K Ingleside light-rail service resumed again on May 15, 2021; again, through-routed with T Third Street. On January 7, 2023, the T Third Street line was rerouted into the Central Subway ending 16 years of being interlined with the K Ingleside, which will terminate at Embarcadero.

Future
In 2023, the SFMTA began planning work on the K Ingleside Rapid Project, which is intended to increase capacity and reduce travel time on the Ocean Avenue portion of the line. Planned changes include longer platforms at four stops to allow use of two-car trains, elimination of one stop, and transit lanes between Junipero Serra Boulevard and Lee Avenue. , "quick-build" implementation of some project elements is planned for early 2024, with construction of the full project taking place from 2027 to 2029.

Several long-term changes to the line were proposed in 2016. An SFMTA rail strategy plan proposed a 3 mile light rail line from Balboa Park to Bayshore station, likely to be an extension of the K Ingleside. Its costs were estimated between $260 million and $610 million, with completion in the 2030s. A proposal for a M Ocean View subway included the K using the new subway as far west as St. Francis Circle, with a new portal in the median of Junipero Serra Boulevard.

Station listing
The K Ingleside line stops at concrete boarding islands in the middle of the street next to the tracks. Some stops have raised platforms for accessibility.

While a relatively short one compared to the Battle of France, there's still a series of campaigns during this Battle that led to its Fall. ZKang123 (talk) 11:56, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

Infobox edits
result – optional – this parameter may use one of two standard terms: "X victory" or "Inconclusive". The term used is for the "immediate" outcome of the "subject" conflict and should reflect what the sources say. In cases where the standard terms do not accurately describe the outcome, a link or note should be made to the section of the article where the result is discussed in detail (such as "See the Aftermath section"). Such a note can also be used in conjunction with the standard terms but should not be used to conceal an ambiguity in the "immediate" result. Do not introduce non-standard terms like "decisive", "marginal" or "tactical", or contradictory statements like "decisive tactical victory but strategic defeat". Omit this parameter altogether rather than engage in speculation about which side won or by how much.

 * Which bit of this did you miss? Keith-264 (talk) 20:32, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

 * @Keith-264 Which bit of: "Said criterion is not an absolute rule. The majority of the most popular conflict articles on this website utilize bullet points in their "result" sections." did you miss?
 * Here is just a sample of some massively popular military conflict articles (some of which are featured) that use bullets in their "result" section:
 * World War I
 * World War II
 * Attack on Pearl Harbor
 * Operation Barbarossa
 * Guadalcanal campaign
 * Battle of Midway
 * Battle of the Bulge
 * That should put this to rest. The criterion you are citing are not hard and fast rules. Stop being anal-retentive for no perceivable reason. BUZZLIGHTYEAR99 (talk) 20:48, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Do you know how many articles there are? Has it not occurred to you that other articles not conforming to the standard is no excuse for your edits? You really need to consider your position given that you have been warned about this so often by so many editors. Keith-264 (talk) 20:52, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I forgot to mention BOLD, revert, discuss cycle and WP:civil. Keith-264 (talk) 20:56, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm discussing it with you here now. You have failed to provide adequate reason so far. I have also been perfectly civil with you, the irony is you are the one who initiated the confrontational nature of this dialogue. BUZZLIGHTYEAR99 (talk) 21:03, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Except that all of those articles are viewed and edited by a colossal number of people, it isn't some oversight that they all have bullet points; they're a useful tool for quickly imparting a reader with relevant knowledge. Furthermore, the excerpt you cited previously does even prohibit the use of bullets, explicitly or implicitly. You are being extremely pedantic. BUZZLIGHTYEAR99 (talk) 21:00, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * "this parameter may use one of two standard terms: "X victory" or "Inconclusive"" QED Keith-264 (talk) 21:10, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * And yet how many articles that get viewed by millions of people every day still use bullets in the result? QED
 * Here's an incomplete list for you again:
 * World War I
 * World War II
 * Attack on Pearl Harbor
 * Operation Barbarossa
 * Guadalcanal campaign
 * Battle of Midway
 * Battle of the Bulge
 * You haven't provided any reason why there shouldn't be bullets either, other than anal-retentive adherence to guidelines that have already been demonstrated to not be absolute. BUZZLIGHTYEAR99 (talk) 21:17, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

I don't have to justify following a rule and I couldn't if I wanted to as I helped to make it, it's a conflict of interest. All you have to do is read this "this parameter may use one of two standard terms: "X victory" or "Inconclusive"" Keith-264 (talk) 21:21, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

 * When you're being faced with numerous examples of said rule not being upheld, yes you do. All you have to do is read the countless major articles that don't. The logic you keep trying to recycle has been proven to be a fallacy. You're starting to sound like a case of WP:ICANTHEARYOU BUZZLIGHTYEAR99 (talk) 21:33, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * "this parameter may use one of two standard terms: "X victory" or "Inconclusive" Keith-264 (talk) 22:12, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Confirmed case of WP:ICANTHEARYOU. That logic has already been refuted. Come up with a legitimate reason to oppose the edit or you will continue to be ignored. BUZZLIGHTYEAR99 (talk) 03:46, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
