Talk:Fujian tea ceremony

The black tea serve in Kung-fu (Pinyin Gung Fu)tea ceremony originate from the Saochonng variety, originate and evolve from China Fujian state. In chinese word, Kung-Fu has few meaning. i. The popular martial art. ii. works that need lots of effort and skill. It seems the second meaning are more likely. Sltan

it is not for just black tea it is for all leaf teas (not japanese powered tea). the reason for gongfu brewing is because of yixing small teapots, where the temperature and water and tea amount can be monitored easily, now there is a kind of black tea that is called "gongfu black tea" but that is a name of a tea not a brewing method (gong/kung/kong Fu---tea brewing method). i dont want to get knit picky about words but kungfu or gongfu means "do with care and skill". in tea culture we usually say gong not kung this also helps to differentiate the chinese (kung-fu) fighting method (one of many) and the chinese gongfu tea brewing method one of many). in fujian they have many methods of making tea there is no "one" fujian tea ceremony, what i mean is the article fujian tea ceremony is actually the gongfu (kungfu) "skill" method of brewing tea that is practiced in fujian. the gongfu tea ceremonies not exactly the same for every region, but are similar in the following the teas can be any kind, as long as it is leaf tea not powdered tea, the methodology of gongfu tea ceremony or gongfu brewing methodology is to brew good tea and to enjoy the tea, and usually socially, with others and casual talking. --Sherdwen 04:50, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Votians

Map
Can we get an English map? The current map is very confusing. Where exactly are the Votes positioned on this map in adjacency with the Ingrians and Izhorians. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.206.181.191 (talk) 21:13, 9 May 2018 (UTC)

 * a location map per request, but I feel this could be further improved. Unrelated, consider becoming a registered editor. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 21:21, 5 September 2021 (UTC)

Requested move 3 September 2021

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Moved to Votians per WP:NOGOODOPTIONS and WP:NATURAL#1. I know that it wasn't even mentioned below, but hey, as a closer I have a unique chance to supervote here. More seriously, "Votians" has ample Google Books hits, does not seem to be outdated as "Vods", and is unambiguous, so it seems to tick all the boxes. Should anyone disagree, please ping me on my talk, or just open another RM, since this one reached no consensus about the best target. No such user (talk) 14:46, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

P.S. I redirected Votes to Vote (disambiguation) as the safest option; it's an unlikely search term for "voting" so we'd better guide against potentially ambiguous links. No such user (talk) 15:07, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Votes → Votes (ethnic group) – WP:ASTONISH, no clear primary topic, Voting gets 4,648 views compared with only 1,043 Votes for the ethnic group. Google, Images and Books only returns the voting meaning. Either Votes should redirect to Vote (disambiguation) or redirect to Voting or be a separate DAB page. Another possibility for the target is Vote people like others in Category:Ethnic groups in Russia.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 17:07, 3 September 2021 (UTC) — Relisting. Jack Frost (talk) 02:01, 12 September 2021 (UTC)  — Relisting. —usernamekiran (talk) 14:27, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Oppose, although would be okay with moving to Vote people instead - but if moved so, Votes redirecting to Vote people with a hatnote would be preferred. Again, readers don't randomly pluralize things they're searching for, and it seems highly unlikely that 1/4 of the people looking at "Voting" tried to search it up with "Votes".  Finally, WP:ASTONISH isn't relevant here, but that's a debate for another time.  SnowFire (talk) 17:48, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Per WP:PLURALPT the "normal situation is that a plural redirects to its singular" and the voting meaning clearly has more long-term significance and WP:NWFCTM says "it is not our goal to astonish our readers" and WP:PRECISION says "Usually, titles should unambiguously define the topical scope of the article" which the current one doesn't since to most people "votes" is the voting meaning not the ethnic group.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 21:28, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Move to Vote people, and retarget to Vote (disambiguation) as R from plural plus R ambig. Plural redirects to the singular form often attract bad links (you'd be surprised how many editors think that, , , , , and so on could only refer to a sports team). Such bad links take effort to monitor, degrade the encyclopedia, and give ammunition to people who have nothing better to do than find foolish things in Wikipedia. Don't give them the opportunity. Narky Blert (talk) 20:24, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Move to Vods per WP:NATURAL, this spelling is also used . 162 etc. (talk) 22:07, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Move to Vods per User:162 etc. The current title is too easily confused with votes as in voting. J I P  | Talk 02:06, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Move to Vods as per above.--Ortizesp (talk) 20:24, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Move to (undecided)  Votes (ethnic group): "Votes" is a very ubiquitous reference of voting in English, whether the tallying of "votes", or a rallying chant of the women's suffrage, i.e. "Votes for women" redirecting to suffrage article. I would not have known about the ethnic group without a hatnote, disambiguation page, or a link in related articles. Oppose Votes → Vote people due to the confusion with voting this may create, resulting in a subsequent R from move. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 19:57, 5 September 2021 (UTC) (edited 06:11, 18 September 2021 (UTC))
 * Move to Votes (ethnic group) or something similar per User:Crouch, Swale. "Vods" is far less frequently used in the English language when referring to Votes. ExRat (talk) 22:12, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Relisting comment: There is clearly consensus that the page should be moved. However, further discussion to establish a clearer consensus regarding the destination (Vods vs Votes (ethnic group) vs Vote people vs ) and the fate of the original page (Votes) would be helpful. --Jack Frost (talk) 02:08, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I have no strong feeling which of those three should be the basename; but the other two should redirect to it, being created if necessary. Narky Blert (talk) 11:45, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I'd probably go with either Vote people per CONSISTENT or the suggested Vods if NATURAL is satisfied. Per WP:NOGOODOPTIONS we can just pick the best one in another week if there isn't a clear consensus which to use but we have a clear consensus that the group isn't primary. I'd recommend redirecting to the DAB to avoid problems with incoming external links.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 20:56, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree with Crouch, Swale. NOGOODOPTIONS para 4 applies. Narky Blert (talk) 22:25, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
 * As said, I'm fine with whatever destination is decided upon, except Vote people. I am firmly opposed to that destination, because it is not clear whether it refers to ballot casting, or an ethnic group, as I've stated above. If I had to pick one so that the move will go through, I would make Votes (ethnic group) the destination, unless Vods is demonstrated to be common usage; I have no idea if "Vods" could be considered a slur. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 05:30, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Well I guess Vote people may be too ambiguous and perhaps a RFD is needed after this RM if we don't choose that option.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 17:35, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment. Other than the two examples given by 162 etc., the only other sources for the use of "Vods" in English I could find were a book called Russia by Alfred Rambaud published in 1898 and The Races of Europe by Steven Coons Carleton published in 1939. So, I'd just like to reiterate that Votes, in English, is by far the most common name. Votes is used almost universally in English when referring to the people, just as their language is called Votic. Would be foolish to assign a rarely used or archaic term to an ethno-linguistic group because of some perceived confusion by Wikipedia readers. ExRat (talk) 08:56, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
 * Relisting comment: even though there has been discussion after last relist, there is still no consensus. Pinging all the involved editors: . Courtesy ping to last relist-er . —usernamekiran (talk) 14:27, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
 * No change in my vote: Support → Votes (ethnic group), Strongly oppose → Vote people. Thank you for the ping. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 17:11, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Support some move so this title can redirect to Voting or a DAB page. I oppose Vote people as confusing, the rest are fine if supported by sources.  I don't speak Finnish or Russian but I think "VUH AWE TUH" and not "VUH OWE TUH" is how this should be pronounced, so some other latinization should be preferred anyhow. User:力 (power~enwiki,  π,  ν ) 17:01, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Support Votic people. Without some better evidence, I oppose "Vods".  "Votic people" avoids all the confusion with the English verb "to vote", and appears accurate.  Second choice is Votes (ethnic group), I think I am opposed to all the other proposals I have seen. User:力 (power~enwiki,  π,  ν ) 16:34, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Inquiry this article seems to have two English sources, and one uses "Vots" as the demonym. What are these sources used to attest that "Vote" even is the common name? User:力 (power~enwiki,  π,  ν ) 17:01, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Votes:, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , etc... ExRat (talk) 03:41, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks; I am convinced but it may help others if you identified 3-5 of the most high-quality sources rather than 20 sources of a mix of quality. (I can and may do so myself if you don't want to, but as it's your list I figure I will give you the opportunity to curate it first.) User:力 (power~enwiki,  π,  ν ) 16:34, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Somewhat confused. Those are all good quality sources and I'm not sure what I am supposed to curate. I was merely demonstrating that "Votes" is the most common demonym in English. ExRat (talk) 20:15, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. And redirect Votes to Voting as a clear primary redirect. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:16, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Support Votes (ethnic group) per nom. I've never heard "Vods" before and "Vote people" is just confusing. "Votic people" is decent as well, and we already have Votic language, and I wouldn't be opposed to that either if the closer chooses it. ASUKITE 21:06, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

Three fluid ounces
Band vanity. Local/unsigned band from Manchester. —Mar·ka·ci: 2005-02-7 13:21 Z

This page should not be deleted as it is about a genuine, and popular band on the UK, Manchester rock scene. This band is big enough to inform people about them. This is NOT publicity as is clear from the unbiased way the article has been written.It is purely informative.

This page is now preserved as an archive of the debate and, like some other VfD subpages, is no longer 'live'. Subsequent comments on the issue, the deletion, or the decision-making process should be placed on the relevant 'live' pages. Please do not edit this page.
 * Delete I enjoy quite a lot of Manchester music, but this seems below the bar for encyclopedic inclusion. Tried several search terms, for example "three fluid ounces" + Manchester; (three fluid ounces" + band; three fluid ounces" + music; 3floz + band; etc.  None brought relevant results. Andrew Lenahan - St ar bli nd  14:09, Feb 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * Additional note: When I did my research for this, the hit counter on their official site was at 206 visitors. This would seem to call into question the claim that they are popular or well-known even on a local level. Andrew Lenahan - St ar bli nd  14:17, Feb 7, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. The usual criterion for inclusion of bands is that they should have recordings published by recognized labels.   This is a low threshold for notability, although it might not seem so to a band that doesn't have a recording contract yet.   --BM 16:32, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Faure Gnassingbé

Question
A question - opposition candidate Bob Akitani is claiming he won the recent election and that the election was rigged. It's going to take weeks or months to sort out what happened in the election - should we refer to the fact that there's some controversy, especially since the front page of en.wikipedia currently states unambiguously that Gnassingbe won the election? Ethanz 22:16, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Untitled
It seems that his name is actually Faure Gnassingbé: "I, Faure Gnassingbe, elected president of the republic conforming to the laws of the republic, swear solemnly to respect and defend the constitution, and to loyally fulfill the highest duties assigned me by the country." I suppose we should move the article? Everyking 13:21, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Yes, probably should. Also I notice that the French wikipedia says he went to Georgetown, not Yale. The source for Yale is here, but I can't find any authority backing up Georgetown. Dbiv 20:11, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * I've read Yale today in Nice-matin. Probably from an AFP news ? - Ericd 22:09, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * There was an editorial in the Daily Telegraph in the last few days that read very like it used Wikipedia as a source - so watch out! There seems not to be a great amount of information on him from any other source. Dbiv 22:11, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Le Nouvel Observateur : http://permanent.nouvelobs.com/cgi/edition/qobs_imprime?cle=20050206.OBS8074, However the position of the African Union is a good new for Africa. Ericd 22:16, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Quelle et le nom du nouvelle preésident? confirms Faure Gnassingbe at the Togo government website: http://www.republicoftogo.com/fr/news/news.asp?rubID=1&srubID=72&themeID=1&newsID=9232

Would it be wise to add a criticisms section? There aren't a shortage of criticisms. Robert Solow went so far as to state that Gnassingbe would make his greatest contribution to development by dying (Celmens, Foreign Affairs, "Smart Samaritans," p. 135, October 2007) Montesquieu

Hello, who put this name for the predecessor of Faure ? it was his father !! Gnassingbe Eyadema... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.207.162.1 (talk) 09:40, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

At the end of this article is the sentence: "40,000 refugees fled to neighboring Benin and Ghana, most of whom have since been repatriated despite concerns." - is there a source for this? As far as I knew there were still large numbers of Togolese living in Ghana (particularly in Accra). Is there really any good information about how many refugees left and came back?

page size
Why is his page size so little se serving since 2005 and in politics since 2003 MichealJackton (talk) 02:11, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

Term dates
The dates for his term are incomplete. The article currently says that he was in office between Feb 5 2005 and Feb 25 2005, but that's clearly incomplete and may be slightly inaccurate. 2601:8C:4182:BBB0:F9B8:6569:B034:4F01 (talk) 03:41, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Most importantly, he's been serving as the elected president continuously since May 4 2005 so that definitely should be updated
 * The "Legitimacy" section states that the assembly legalized his succession on Feb 6. Should the start date be Feb 5, when he was sworn in as Acting President or Feb 6 when the assembly "legalized" it
 * He resigned on February 25 2005 and Bonfoh Abass served as acting president until May 4 2005. This article should probably say that Gnassingbé served from Feb 5 (or 6) 2005 - Feb 25 2005 and then again from May 4 2005 to present

Thai Nation Party

Thai Nation Party, or Chart Thai Party (พรรคชาติไทย, ) was a conservative political party in Thailand. It was dissolved by the Constitutional Court of Thailand on December 2, 2008, along with the People's Power Party and the Neutral Democratic Party, for having violated electoral laws in the 2007 Thai general election. Thereafter, most MPs founded the Chart Thai Pattana Party (Thai Nation Development Party), which became the Thai Nation Party's successor.

Foundation and first electoral successes
The Thai Nation Party was founded in 1974 by Chatichai Choonhavan, son of Field Marshal Phin Choonhavan, and his in-laws Pramarn Adireksarn and Siri Siriyothin, who were at the time major-generals like him. The three belonged to the "Rajakru clan", a military, economic and political interest group established by Field Marshal Phin. The party represented the rightist and pro-military wing of Thai politics during the relatively liberal and democratic years from 1973 to 1976. During the campaign for the election in April 1976, the party called for "the Right to kill the Left", and party chairman and Deputy Prime Minister Pramarn declared in a cabinet meeting on October 6, 1976, that it was the right moment to destroy the student movement, which was eventually executed in the Thammasat University massacre.

In the subsequent elections 1976, 1979, 1983 and 1986, the party consistently was the second-strongest party. During the 1980s, the party deideologized itself. It was a "government party" that tried to be part of the ruling coalition at any rate. Only between 1983 and 1986 it was the main parliamentary opposition. According to then-secretary general Banharn Silpa-archa, "for a politician, being in opposition is like starving yourself to death."

Chatichai and Banharn governments
In the general election of 1988, the Thai Nation Party won the most votes, resulting in its leader Chatichai Choonhavan becoming the prime minister. Chatichai was the first democratically elected Prime Minister of Thailand in over a decade. Chatichai's government became known as the "buffet cabinet" for its members scrambling overtly over the distribution of public funds. The Thai Nation Party advocated a reinforcement of the role of Parliament, in which many businessmen from the province were represented who had gained wealth and growing political ambitions, vis-à-vis the traditionally powerful, but not democratically legitimised administration. Chatichai's government was deposed by a military coup d'état in 1991. The putschists accused the Prime Minister and several other members of the cabinet of having acquired "unusual wealth".

After the March 1992 general election, the Thai Nation Party — now led by Air Chief Marshal Somboon Rahong — joined a military-sponsored coalition led by the Justice Unity Party (Samakkhi Tham), under coup leader General Suchinda Kraprayoon. During the street protests and bloody crackdown of Black May 1992, it was therefore considered one of the "devil parties". One of the party's factions rejected this alliance and left the party to found the National Development Party (Chart Pattana). It was led by former Thai Nation leader and Prime Minister Chatichai.

After return to democracy in 1992, the Thai Nation Party became the main opposition force against the Democrat-led government of Chuan Leekpai. In a 1993 representative survey, 50% of the respondents identified the Thai Nation Party as the most corrupt of the country. In 1994 Banharn Silpa-archa, a billionaire construction building contractor and "godfather of Suphan Buri", became the party's chairman. The party won the 1995 elections that were heavily tainted with vote-buying. Banharn became Prime Minister, but his government coalition broke as early as in November 1996. After new elections, Chart Thai was in opposition against the short-lived government of Chavalit Yongchaiyudh. In November 1997, it joined a seven-party coalition supporting Democrat Prime Minister Chuan Leekpai.

During the Thaksin premiership
In the 2001 elections, the Thai Nation Party won 41 out of 500 seats and formed a coalition government with the largest party, the populist Thai Rak Thai, formerly led and co-founded by tycoon Thaksin Shinawatra. The party lost some seats in the 2005 elections, despite the support of the popular politician and former "massage parlour" owner Chuwit Kamolvisit. The party won 11.4% of the popular vote and 27 out of 500 seats. Due to policy conflicts, the Chart Thai Party subsequently defected from the coalition with the Thai Rak Thai party. The party, along with the 2 other largest opposition parties, boycotted the elections of April 2006 hoping to make it impossible for a new Thai Rak Thai-led government to form.

After the 2006 coup
The Thai Nation Party participated in the 2007 general election and won 8.87% of the vote (37 of 480 seats), coming in third after the People Power Party (led by former Thai Rak Thai members) and the Democrats. In January 2008, the Thai Nation Party joined the PPP and five others in the six-party coalition government.

Along with the coalition members People Power Party and Matchima, the Thai Nation Party was dissolved by the Constitutional Court on December 2, 2008, with party executives banned from Thai politics for five years, amid charges of electoral fraud during the 2007 election. The non-executive MPs of the parties were given 60 days to defect to new or existing parties. MPs from the Chart Thai and Matchima parties announced that they would stick with MPs from the PPP party in forming a new government, but failed to do so due to the party dissolution. Thereafter, most former Chart Thai MPs and members convened to found the Chart Thai Pattana Party (Thai Nation Development Party), which has been part of the coalition government since 2008.

Hackers....What are they and what is their culture?

 * -- This disambiguation pages leads to excess segmentation. There are multiple sub-articles that were formerly one sole article, and it's likely that anyone interested in one would be interested in the rest. The "Hackers" article was large, but not unduly cumbersome, and the distinctions implied by the way the articles are divided leave out the possibility for grey areas and drift that were possible in one cohesive article. Several of the "Hacker" sub-articles should be conjoined. Does anyone have any thoughts pro or con? -- Adrian 16:27, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

User talk:Pilaf~enwiki/Live Preview

Excellent idea - well done! But does it work for us antediluvial throwbacks who still use the classic skin? "monobook.js" is a bit of a clue, but I live in hope ... -- ALoan (Talk) 13:23, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * I'm afraid not, as far as I know other skins do not allow CSS or JavaScript extensions (correct me if I am wrong please), so you'll have to switch to MonoBook if you want to use this. Sorry. Pilaf 16:08, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * A theoretical work around, if you really can't live without the classic skin, is to modify your monobook.css to mimic the classic skin. It's not a trivial solution though. Pilaf 16:15, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks - I wondered if someone had already done this - Gallery of user styles seems the most likely candidate, but ultimately not a lot of help. If anyone has a monobook.css that emulates the classic skin, I'd be very grateful if I could copy it... -- ALoan (Talk) 14:13, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * You can use this with the classic skin, as I am doing right now. You have to edit your standard.js file instead of monobook.js. Lupin 20:42, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

Can you add how to install it on Wiktionary ? Thanks. Yann

 * I think the only change required is that instead of the local /w/index.php?title=User:Pilaf/livepreview.js... path, you have to use absolute http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Pilaf/livepreview.js... I have tried that on cs: Wikipedia and it seems to work fine. --Mormegil 16:27, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * No, that won't always work fine as you need to define a few variables per wiki. Moving from en.wikipedia to en.wiktionary or en.whatever should be very easy as most things remain the same (especially namespaces). Generally the best way to implement it in some other wiki is by copying to that wiki and configuring the system variables. I will write a tutorial on how to use it on other wikis later, in the meanwhile please let me know where you are using it as I need to keep track for when I release updates. I need some means of centralized organization. Pilaf 17:16, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Can someone please post exactly what is needed to get this working on another mediaWiki implementation, or link to the most current instructions?? I've dug through Pilaf's various pages, Live_View, InstaView, examined monobook.js, instaview.js, tried including the vars mentioned above... forced reloads, cleared browser cache, tried different browser... I can't get it working, what am I missing?! I just implemented MediaWiki for a software documentation project. Thanks anybody. --emjayess 4 Mar 2006

 * Very nice work Pilaf, very handy! I was wondering if you could help me with something similar. I want to make my own modification to the Edit page but I am not sure how to do so (I will probably work it out but if you could tell me it would help a lot). Once again, thanks for the very handy tool. --Yelhsa 14:53, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)

Bugs
Nice idea! I have a couple of bugreports/feature requests, if you are interested: Anyway, thanks for a piece of good work!
 * Links like  should be rendered like Foobar, i.e. the first colon-separated prefix should be ignored for rendering, currently it is broken completely.
 * This was implemented and working, must've broken it accidentally. I'll fix it right away.
 * Links like  (dtto :Image:) should ignore the initial colon.
 * It's in my to do list.
 * The namespaces ignore translation, e.g. on cs:,  should render an image (Soubor: is equivalent to Image: there). This is understandable, but maybe there could be at least some "local setting variable" in users' Monobook.js, similar to $wgUserName.
 * This is already possible, you just need to copy the livepreview.js to your own wiki (fr, de, whatever) and configure the system variables at the top of the script. Namespaces are variables which can be localized.
 * Oh, perfect, I haven't hoped for that! :-)
 * The time format with  is different from MediaWiki's. I know, I am nitpicking. :-)
 * I know, I was hoping nobody would notice ;) It's low priority, but I might fix it at some moment.
 * Here's the code to fix it: Replace the two calls to Date with: d=new Date; d.getUTCHours+":"+d.getUTCMinutes+", "+d.getUTCDate+" "+monthname[d.getUTCMonth]+" "+d.getUTCFullYear+" (UTC)". Hope you don't mind all my patches and suggestions. ;-) JesseW 19:16, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * The yellow-red frame should finish with some, because otherwise, if there is some floating object inside, it continues even under the frame.
 * I know, I loosely tried to implement this recently, but I was really sleepy and didn't want to keep messing with it (the first attempt failed). I'll do it soon.

--Mormegil 16:27, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks for your reports. Perhaps I should open a section for bug reports as there are many things to fix yet. Pilaf 17:10, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Some more nitpicking:
 * displays [#], but it is probably a feature (not counting the links).
 * It is indeed a feature, but rather an ugly hack, so I'll try to implement links numbering.
 * If a line indented by a colon contains a smilie, it is broken. (e.g. )
 * I'll take care of that.

--Mormegil 10:03, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * BTW, last night I uploaded a new version which fixes a couple bugs (not in your list though) plus implementing the clearing you suggested. Thanks again! Pilaf 13:38, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Hi again! Some problems were fixed, thanks! But some still remain:
 * Colon-indented items are displayed wrongly. It is IMHO the worst problem. Try the following:
 * blah blah
 * foo bar
 * baz

Thanks again for this great piece of code! --Mormegil 16:34, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * should ignore the colon (it already works for :Category)
 * should display cs:Foobar, currently it is broken (it already works for things like meta:Foobar).

 * Oops, hadn't noticed that problem with definition lists (indented text). I'll get to it soon. Pilaf 13:50, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)

More bug reports/feature requests
First of all, great work. I'm steping through the code right now(I'm a paranoid guy...), and it's interesting.
 * Implementing raw signatures - i.e. not adding anything to the wpUserSignature - I don't know if accessing the preferences would be a PITA, but adding a option like wpPrefRawSig shouldn't be too hard. I may send you a patch for it sometime. If you or anyone wants to see the semi-commented version of the code that I made, let me know and I'll post it to the wiki. JesseW 17:55, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

md5 function is old-fashioned
This is a great tool! When writing my popups tool, I noticed that images with utf8 characters caused problems in my md5 function. It seems that Live Preview is similarly afflicted: try a live preview on this section, containing Image:ErzsébetBáthory.jpg. The md5 hash is computed incorrectly. A functioning javascript utf8 md5 function is at and there's a local copy at User:Lupin/md5-2.2alpha.js. Lupin 16:02, 6 August 2005 (UTC)

Suggested improvements
Not certain whether to put this here or on the article but here goes: Something like: +==========================+ | preview of article      | |                         | .                          . .                          . .                          . |                          | +==========================+  |  :cy:...              | | :gd:...              | +==========================+ | :Category:Test       | +==========================+ Making the links live to allow for testing would be good: this already works well on the regular text section. I figure this shouldn't be any extra load given that you're already taking account of them (and ignoring them). --Phil | Talk 13:40, Feb 21, 2005 (UTC)
 * Show interwiki links as a separate section at the bottom
 * Show categories as a separate section at the bottom

 * Good idea, I'll try to implement it later. I've been trying to refactor the code a bit lately so that it becomes more flexible (currently I can't implement multiline nowiki tags properly plus some other stuff), so this may come along with that in the next version. Thanks a lot for the suggestion. Pilaf 22:12, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I've implemented switching the accessKey from the regular preview to live preview
If anyone else wants the code to switch the alt-p accesskey from the regular preview to Live Preview, it is availabe from my User:JesseW/monobook.js file. Pilaf, if you want to add this, feel free. JesseW 18:54, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

License, source code?
Hi, under what license did you release your script, and is there an unpacked (possibly commented?) version of the source code available? Thanks, AxelBoldt 19:44, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

 * License is BSD. Updates coming soon. Pilaf 22:15, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Meanwhile, I converted the current source to an indented version (with help of Mozilla's js function pretty printer). Maybe others can use this as well. Arbruijn 21:34, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Minor rendering problem
I'm trying it now and liking it very much, but two small things I notice that Live Preview renders wrong are with this:

Same thing, with the wiki code visible:

Problems are:
 * 1) Image should show the description link as "(talk)", but Live Previews as " (talk)]] ".
 * 2) The "Same thing" text in the nowiki tags should appear as text, but in the Live Preview it appears as a second identical image.

-- All the best, Nickj (t) 22:59, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Fixed for next release. Pilaf 19:26, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

Problem on links beginning with /
BUG: Although Wikipedia treats a link like /foo as a link relative to the current article name, ie User_talk:Pilaf/Live_Preview/foo, Live Preview currently treats such relative links as absolute, and so links to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki//foo. jnothman talk

 * Fixed for next update. Pilaf 22:16, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

Offline preview
Your Live Preview certainly has the capability, but can I get it to give me a preview when I'm offline? I haven't installed it yet, but from the description it works off a wikipedia aritcle, so only works online at the moment.--Commander Keane 05:12, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

 * How do you get the current contents of a page which you want to edit if you're offline? Or do you mean to start from scratch? It could be modified to work offline in that sense. jnothman talk 08:15, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Yes, I meant from scratch. I'm going to be offline for a week and want to work on the layout of template. Since I'm a bit hit-and-miss with the wiki table code a preview would be very useful. I could also download content first and work with it offline later.--Commander Keane 16:11, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Here's a very neat offline version of Live Preview by Sverdrup: (save it as livepreview.html or whatever you prefer). By the way, a new LP version with some bugfixes is in the works, stay tuned. Pilaf 02:08, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

Minor syntax error
I have been trying to understand how your code works and in doing so I noticed that (I think) "this._parse_inline_nowiki=function(str)" should be just "_parse_inline_nowiki=function(str)"

It works in javascript in the browser because (I think) "this." refers to the global object and so the function is declared just where it would have been. I only noticed this issue because I was translating the code to run on an ASP page at my server [] so that I could watch it work.

VERY impressive bit of code. It gets a lot done in fewer lines than I would use. Did you translate this from the MetaWiki code or write it off the top of your head? I have yet to find the WikiText to HTML code in the MetaWiki source or I would answer this question myself. :) --Jamesnewton 01:21, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Sorry about the totally mangled code. Unfortunately I lost the original human-friendly, commented version in a HD crash, but I have since decided to take it up anew, so I will be publishing the "source code" very soon. The error you mention is a product of some major code rearrangement I made at some point, and is already fixed in the latest (not yet released) version. Thanks for your compliments, and yes, I wrote it up from scratch just comparing against Mediawiki's output (that's why it has some discrepancies). Best wishes, Pilaf 04:54, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

Bug: !! th divider
Live preview does not properly handle !! for table header cells. See Help:Tables. jnothman talk

 * Fixed for next release. Pilaf 17:07, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Second button required to re-hide
Now that the layout of the edit page has changed, would it be possible to add in a second button, next to the "Live Preview" button, to hide the output? Because the preview is now showing between the text box and the edit summary, editing a long page means that the "Save/Preview/Changes" buttons get shoved way down the bottom of the page by the LivePreview. You could maybe rename the current button "Show Live Preview" and name the new button "Hide Live Preview": it would presumably need to be disabled until you actually showed something… HTH HAND —Phil | Talk 14:50, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Will fix. Pilaf 22:26, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Name change
After some thought I decided to change the project's name to InstaView in order to avoid conflict with MediaWiki's Live Preview feature. Thanks to everyone who submitted suggestions. Pilaf 22:26, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Problem on links beginning #
Similar to the / problem, except that Wikipedia's own preview doesn't do this properly either. jnothman talk 22:53, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Problem with links starting :
Foo shows as Category:Categories|Foo and links to Category:Categories|Foo which can't exist. It should show as Foo. Same goes for interwiki, eg a Hebrew article.

A different problem occurs with My pic. It correctly displays as My pic but links to :Image:mypic.jpg instead of Image:mypic.jpg. Indeed Image:mypic.jpg produces the incorrect link as well:

jnothman talk 22:53, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Nicking installation tips from popups
Tools/Navigation popups has some good stuff you could borrow. First, they provide a template that can be subst to install the needed javascript into monobookjs, very nice. Also, apparently you can install this in other skins, and they havethe necessary files linked for each. Pimlottc 08:10, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

True "instant" preview?
Is it possible to make the live preview update automatically on each keystroke? That would be much more handy and pretty darn slick. You can inject a onchange handler into a pre-existing textarea, can't you? If not, greasemonkey could be used. Pimlottc 08:10, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Having it update onChange would probably bog the browser down, as the entire document would be converted and rendered with each stroke. Having it update in short time intervals wouldn't be such a bad idea though. Pilaf 03:17, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

not offline enough
I want a totally offline preview, no past or future connection required. libtext-wikiformat-perl and parsewiki are OK but don't do tables. --User:Jidanni 2006-07-29

 * Read above under Offline preview. Pilaf 16:08, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Wishlist
Will (Talk - contribs) 05:27, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Please find a way to expand templates. The preview's usefulness is rather limited as is.
 * Please watch the #if's. If you preview User:Will Pittenger/Archive Indexer with your tool, the #if's are ignored or improperly handled.
 * Please find a way to properly display inter-wiki links. I like to test each one before I sumbit it.  Waiting for Wikipedia's preview takes longer.
 * Any support for ?

Small wish: Give the InstaView Button id and name attributes
Thank you for this very useful work. Great! I have a suggestion to extend its usability a bit further: add attributes id="InstaView" name="InstaView" to the input element that represents the button. This will enable users to simulate a click on this button using Javascripts document.getElementById method. I use this currently with the Mozilla keyconfig extension to have a keyboard shortcut to the usual preview button. --tomaschwutz (talk) 16:59, 22 November 2008 (UTC)

User:DavidFarmbrough

English/American Real Estate and media person based in Wisconsin, USA, formerly a London real estate lawyer.

I enjoy creativity and my family. I have been a writer, radio broadcaster, photographer, and a newspaper editor. I was co-chairman of the Betty Boop Festival from 2010 to 2018, dedicated to helping boost my home town of Wisconsin Rapids by bringing in visitors, celebrating the work of one of its sons (Grim Natwick, original top animator of Betty Boop), and educating children and adults in animation, art, and cartoon history. I have been on various non-profit boards including Wisconsin Rapids Children's Museum Inc., the Central Wisconsin Literacy Council, the city's ADA Advisory Board, the Board Of Trustees of McMillan Memorial Library (past President), my ELCA church's Worship Board, and Friends Of Rapids Music. I am currently on the board of Wisconsin Rapids Community Theatre (President), Central Networking (past President), and serve on the Wisconsin Realtors' Association's committee for Diversity, Equity, And Inclusion. I am a member of Mid-State Poetry Towers, and River Cities 'Riters.

Writing
I started writing book reviews for my youth club's magazine Explorers Bulletin, when I was a boy. My first paid writing was in around 1983, when I started writing music reviews and articles for Musicnet, the music magazine of Prestel. I edited the Trent Players' magazine Trent News, and wrote many articles for this. I have had reviews published by Celestial Toyroom, Cybermag, Outpost Gallifrey (an excerpt from which was featured in the Daily Express) and the BBC's own website. While studying for my MA, I edited the Birkbeck College magazine, Lamp And Owl, wrote some articles and contributed photographs. I have written many reviews for Amazon.com, amazon.co.uk, and the Internet Movie Database. I have contributed many hours of writing and editing to Wikipedia, and several articles for Axis magazine between 2004-2008, and had an article on the dreaded 'Home Information Packs' published by Solicitors Journal in 2008. I have written many articles for various news organisations and journalists, including political opinion, "how-to" guides, and reviews. I had a regular column "A Different View" in 100 issues of the Voice Of Wisconsin Rapids newspaper for four years and occasionally provided arts reviews and interviews for that paper. I also wrote political and other articles to order. I wrote scripts and directed video's made by Hearts Media and interviews for a Central Wisconsin news site Life At The Center. I was founding and managing Editor of the Wisconsin Rapids City-Times from 2013-2014.

Photography
I worked as a portrait photographer, and have had pictures published in the local newspaper, maps, and over 3,500 on Google Earth, with over 50 million views. I have had many photographs in my city's weekly papers. My pictures have been used in nine election campaigns, company and church newsletters, real estate agents, the website for Fleischer Studios, radio stations Y106.5 and Mix 96.7 and bands' Myspace and facebook pages. My pictures have been used by a London newspaper and a London radio station. I have also taken pictures on both a paid and voluntary basis for many local organisations and charities. In 2012 I came second in the "Best Photographer/Videographer" category in the People's Choice Of South Wood County awards. I taught photography for two terms at the outreach department of the University Of Wisconsin (at Stevens Point).

I started taking photographs when I was a child, and during a photography course aged 11 became fascinated with the photography of my London surroundings. I took a set of transparencies of North West London in 1978 of which I am very proud, including some of the Trellick Tower and Kensal Green Cemetery.

I developed the digital process which produces 'reflectograms', a digital art made by capturing textures and colours and then reflecting them. My art is available on Redbubble.

Broadcasting
In the 1980s, I ran and DJd on a pirate radio station "Radio Enfield" with a friend, playing mainly old music but also contemporary songs. I have also DJd for parties and clubs. From 2010 to 2013, I worked for Mix 96.7 in Central Wisconsin where I had two shows at the weekends (Saturday 2-8 p.m. and Sunday 11a.m.-3p.m.) until December 2012 when the station closed.

Qualifications
First degree in English Literature from Birkbeck College, University of London where I studied black British writing, post-colonial writing, Shakespeare, classical epic and science-fiction under (among others) Professors Isobel Armstrong and Roger Luckhurst, and an M.A. in History Of Film & Visual Media, also from Birkbeck, where I studied under Professors Laura Mulvey and Ian Christie. My research report was on recovering our lost television heritage and my dissertation was on deaf people's access to television and film. My M.A. was presented to me by the late Eric Hobsbawm. I am a member of Convocation of the University, and was on my college's University Challenge team in 2001. I obtained my Wisconsin real estate licence in 2018 and my broker's licence in 2022, followed by the NAR's At Home With Diversity and Commitment To Excellence certifications (both 2022).

Personal
Married, living in Wisconsin, USA with my wife, son, and four step-children. I enjoy singing well and playing instruments badly. My brother is the "Wizard Of Wikipedia" User:Rich_Farmbrough, one of the few humans to make over a million edits to Wikipedia. Distant cousin to Detroit Spinners member Henry Fambrough, photographer/writer Florence Farmborough, photographer William L. Fambrough and American foopball coach Don Fambrough. Descendant of James Flawn.

Wikipedia contributions
While not being as prolific as my brother, I have made over 7,000 edits to Wikipedia since 2005. I wanted to contribute photographs, but unfortunately, Wikipedia's requirement for me to lose ownership of my pictures and the way that policy is enforced dissuade my wholehearted participation.

Talk:Hattrick (video game)

Hattrick nominated for MMOGCM
I have nominated Hattrick for the Massively Multiplayer Online Game Collaboration of the Month. Please take a second to look at Hattrick's nomination over at the MMOGCM nominations page. -DMurphy 23:20, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Material added by 80.86.98.234
This material does not appear to satisfy Wikipedia's verifiability policy, from which I quote:

 * "Questionable sources are those with a poor reputation for fact-checking or with no editorial oversight."

There is no editorial oversight in a forum posting.

 * "Material from self-published and questionable sources may be used as sources in articles about themselves, so long as:

 * it does not involve claims about third parties;"

Since these edits (and the questionable source cited) details claims about the behaviour of third parties, it fails to satisfy the verifiability policy.

If a source from a mainstream publication with editorial oversight (e.g. a gaming magazine) can be cited for this, then the information may be able to be added back. Until then, it should not be. - Mark 07:52, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Re:Material added by 80.86.98.234
I see your point and you are right. Although the case is real, and the abuse is obvious, I can't prove anything, because it's my word against theirs. This material intended to show that sometimes the decisions of the GMs are not the correct ones, and that the Senior GMs are also impassible to the appeals. I wanted to show that the abuses are tolerated, and despite my statement no changes were made regarding this decision. I'm very disappointed, and I'm sorry I "invested" two years of my life in a game I thought it was a fair-play promoter. Sorry for the trouble! You have nothing to do with this...

Save God it was only a game... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.86.98.234 (talk) 13:57, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

NPOV... 5.3 Scandal.
Significant data missed:

1st, (unofficial) voting on National Coaches forum. Coaches voted for changes. 2nd, change of rules as rollback for age reform. Any eligible (for this world cup) player before age reform become eligible after change of rules. 3rd, mad night. September, 14.

HT: Preferansist, coach of U-20 Russia. 195.131.163.29 14:07, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Economy section
Does anyone else think the Economy section of the Problems sections is too opinionated... not to mention unreasonably negative? It comes across as being written by a particular use with a major objection to the game, while the points about difficulties retaining players are verifiably false, given the many long-time users. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zealotus (talk • contribs) 14:35, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion reason
Trophy Manager was speedy deleted, and hattrick is basically similar in terms of notability, so I speedied it. Smartyllama (talk) 18:43, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, Trophy Manager is played by less than tenth of the number of people that play Hattrick. I think that anything that's as big as a small state should be kept. I don't mind adding references to the article, as there must be some. I've seen even couple of TV-programs that interviewed Hattrick users. --Jhattara (Talk · Contrib) 07:06, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

'Problems within the game' section
This section is entirely unsourced, and much of it, especially the economy subsection, is quite PoV. Anything that can be done to improve it or source some of it? Bastun BaStun not BaTsun 10:50, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

 * I agree though I am unsure what to do about it aside from deleting the passage. Unmasked (talk) 22:52, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Neutrality
The entire article is pompous, biased, and oversized - with many redundant sections. That's my opinion. I have labeled it for Neutrality Check because there's a big question about the article's neutralit point of view. It's an advertisement. Cafa80 (talk) 17:56, 28 July 2008 (UTC)Cafa80
 * I disagree, and since you don't cite any specific examples, I fail to see where you're coming from. If you disagree with the overall tone of the article, be bold and change it.  If you think it's a fundamental problem with the article, cite some specifics.  The article has a sizable "Problems within the Game" section, so it's not really an advertisement for the game.  It's pompous?  Okay, that's your opinion, but you fail to give any specific examples of pomp.  The same goes for bias.  And the size of the article has nothing to do with Neutrality... an NPOV dispute is designed to resolve the language of the article, not the size.  Either get into specifics or this dispute holds no value.  -DMurphy (talk) 23:25, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
 * The 'interesting' part is how for over a decade Hattrick's Wikipedia page is protected from deletion, but if a user wants to create a page on their competitor Trophy Manager, that page is immediately deleted. So much for Wikipedia's neutrality. This page needs to be deleted, period. It doesn't meet any criteria required to keep it.

8/12/08 Copy-edit
I finally had some extra time and found myself in the mood to do so today, so I contributed a fairly intensive copy-edit. Hopefully it will help to resolve some of these advertisement and NPOV claims.

A few notes on the edit:
 * Removed the "Registration" section, as it is very non-essential information.
 * Greatly reduced the oversized "History" section to only development-related information and bare-bones feature additions.
 * Removed lots of original research/analysis, particularly in the Geographic Distribution section.
 * Reduced the size of some of the charts to include only essential data.
 * Re-arranged things to match other Wiki articles.
 * I only edited through "International Play." I will try to get to the rest at a later date.

Before adding any content back, please consider that I have done this edit for the ultimate benefit of the article, since as it stood, it was heading straight for deletion. Our biggest problem is still references - I have been saying this for two years now! -DMurphy (talk) 05:13, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Further Improvements
Here are some ideas on where to improve this article in the future:
 * "In-game Problems" needs a full copy-edit to reduce its size and increase its readability for the average reader.
 * The "Administrators" section should be combined into one paragraph, instead of one for each type of administrator.
 * The "Outside" section needs a more descriptive title, and needs to be cleaned up. Some sections might need to be combined/removed.
 * The references need to be wikified, as per WP:CITE.
 * A new history section with a paragraph or two of info pertaining to the release history of the game could be nice.
 * Above all, look for third-party sources.

I am no longer an active user of Hattrick, so my expertise in this article is limited. However, I would still like to see this article succeed. -DMurphy (talk) 10:25, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

Charles, Count of Soissons

Charles de Bourbon (3 November 1566 – 1 November 1612) was a French prince du sang and military commander during the struggles over religion and the throne in late 16th century France. A first cousin of King Henry IV of France, he was the son of the Huguenot leader Louis I de Bourbon, prince de Condé and his second wife, Françoise d'Orléans-Longueville (5 April 1549 – 1601). He gave his name to the Hôtel de Soissons after his title Count of Soissons.

Career
Born in Nogent-le-Rotrou, Soissons joined the Catholic League during the French Wars of Religion despite his older half-brothers' Protestant affiliations. He left the royal court disenchanted soon thereafter however, and was won over to the cause of Henry of Navarre.

Charles fought for Henry at the battle of Coutras in 1587, was then introduced and secretly engaged to Henry's sister Catherine. He attended the Estates General at Blois in 1588, fought back the League's forces at the battle of Saint Symphorien in 1589, was taken prisoner at Château-Giron and, escaping from Nantes, joined forces with Henry at Dieppe. After the battle of Ivry he led the king's cavalry in besieging Paris in 1590, and proved his worth at the sieges of Chartres in 1591 and of Rouen in 1592. Although he briefly joined in the scheme of his brother Charles, Cardinal de Bourbon, to form a third party in the kingdom, he attended Henry's coronation in 1594. He fought loyally at the successful siege of Laon. Peace having been concluded with Spain, he commanded troops in the war in Savoy in 1600. He had been inducted into the Order of the Holy Spirit in 1585 by Henry III. Henry IV made him Grand mâitre of the royal household and governor of the province of Brittany in 1589. In 1602 he was made governor of the Dauphiné, and of Normandy in 1610, in which year he was also present at the coronation of Louis XIII. After Henry's death later that year, Soissons opposed the policies of his widow, the queen regent Marie de' Medici. In 1612 Samuel de Champlain convinced Charles to obtain the office of Lieutenant-General from King Louis XIII, which he did.

After the Bourbons obtained the French crown and the Princes de Condé and their heirs apparent (by right of their rank as premier princes du sang) became known, respectively, as Monsieur le prince and Monsieur le duc, Charles came to be styled Monsieur le comte at court. That honorific was borne also by his son Louis and, subsequently, by the Savoy counts of Soissons who inherited the countship from Charles's daughter, Marie, princesse de Carignan, even though they ranked as princes étrangers in France rather than as princes du sang.

The death of Henry IV in 1610 weakened Samuel de Champlain's chances of successfully colonizing New France, and, by the advice of Pierre Dugua, Sieur de Mons, he sought a protector in the person of the Count of Soissons, who accepted the proposal to become the “father of New France,” obtained from the queen regent the authority necessary to preserve and advance all that had been already done, and appointed Champlain his lieutenant with unrestricted power. In his commission to Champlain, Soissons styles himself “lieutenant general of New France,” but he died soon after issuing it.

Family
As the youngest son of a cadet branch of the royal dynasty, Louis could not expect a large patrimony, but was allotted the countship of Soissons from among the Bourbon estates inherited from his paternal great-grandmother, Marie de Luxembourg. He also obtained the countship of Dreux and the seigneuries of Châtel-Chinon, Noyers, Baugé, and Blandy. In 1601 Charles wed Anne de Montafié (1577–1644) who, although not of royal blood, brought to the Bourbon-Soissons her father's countship of Montafié in Piedmont, as well as her mother's seigneuries of Bonnétable and Lucé. Of their five children, three survived childhood:

 * Louis de Bourbon 1604-1641, had illegitimate issue.
 * Louise de Bourbon 1603-1637, married Henri II d'Orléans, Duke of Longueville
 * Marie de Bourbon 1606-1692, married Thomas Francis, Prince of Carignano

Charles's illegitimate daughters by Anne Marie Bohier, daughter of Antoine, seigneur de la Rochebourdet:
 * Charlotte, bâtarde de Soissons (d.1626), became abbess of Fontevrault
 * Catherine, bâtarde de Soissons (d.1651), became abbess of Perrigne in Maine

Charles de Soissons died at Blandy 1 November 1612, of puerperal fever (¿???) according to Père Anselme, and was buried in the Soissons' family tomb in the charterhouse of Gaillon, where his wife and son would also be buried (The Chartreuse de Bourbon-lèz-Gaillon, built in 1562 one km from the Château de Gaillon by Charles, Cardinal de Bourbon, who was buried there, was sold during the French Revolution and demolished in 1834).

Treaty of Perth

The Treaty of Perth, signed 2 July 1266, ended military conflict between Magnus VI of Norway and Alexander III of Scotland over possession of the Hebrides and the Isle of Man.

The Hebrides and the Isle of Man had become Norwegian territory during centuries when both Scotland and Norway were still forming themselves as coherent nation-states, and Norwegian control had been formalised in 1098, when Edgar of Scotland signed the islands over to Magnus III of Norway. In Norwegian terms, the islands were the Sudreys, meaning Southern Isles.

The treaty was agreed three years after the Battle of Largs in 1263. Michael Lynch has compared the treaty's importance with that of the Treaty of York of 1237. The Treaty of York defined a border between Scotland and England that is almost identical to the modern border.

Largs is often claimed as a great Scottish victory, but the Norwegian forces, led by King Håkon IV, were not fully committed to battle and the result was inconclusive. Håkon had planned to renew military action the following summer, but he died in Orkney during the winter. His successor, King Magnus VI, sued for peace and the Treaty was agreed after negotiations in Perth during 1265 and 1266.

In the treaty, Scotland confirmed Norwegian sovereignty over Shetland and Orkney and Norway recognised Scottish sovereignty over the disputed territories in return for a lump sum of 4,000 marks and an annuity of 100 marks. The annuity was paid during subsequent decades, until its cancellation as part of the agreement for the marriage of James III of Scotland and Margaret of Denmark, Queen of Scotland in 1469.

Talk:Catalan solid

table broke
When I was reformatting the article a bit I added a new column to the main list table and now the table formatting is all broken and i cant figure out why, everything is in the right place but the boxes and shading refuse to draw, hopefully someone knows why and can make it work properly again

Arkanoid0 (talk) 07:44, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
 * It's because you inserted a period into the "class = ..." command in the table; I have fixed it. --JBL (talk) 13:58, 12 December 2021 (UTC)

test table
This table shows the catalan solids, grouped in parallel to the Wythoff constructions of the Archimedean solids given at Uniform_polyhedron, and named by Conway polyhedron notation operators. Tom Ruen 20:01, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Here's some alternate pictures: Tom Ruen (talk) 00:21, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

I replaced all of them. 4 T C 10:47, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

 * These are ok, but my opinion is the ball-rod diameters are unnecessarily large, not showing any useful information about the polyhedra. You can make them smaller in Stella by right clicking on the "Use sphere and cylinder" tool button. SockPuppetForTomruen (talk) 21:25, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Catalan solid. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

You reverted my last edit with the explanation "I'm not sure if replacing transparent ones is better". That's not what you did in the edit, so it's a strange edit summary. If the edit summary is the new discussion page - am I supposed to revert back and also write my answer in the edit summary? Anyway, I also don't agree with what you seem to say. I makes sense that there are solid and transparent versions (and it makes sense that the transparent versions are next to the wireframes in the table). I replaced the orange solids with the ones whose colors match the duals. So what exactly would you do instead? Watchduck (quack) 11:41, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

 * You edited a lot. You removed the transparency in the "Symmetry" section, and made them larger. I understand why you like to color vertices and edges to show duality of elements, and I presume that's why you made them bigger, but even at 100 pixels, it is hard to see, so this might not be the best place for them. And the muddy-gray face colors for the Catalans isn't very attractive. I do wonder if we shouldn't add images with the names in the first section. Tom Ruen (talk)

 * [You removed the transparency in the "Symmetry" section...]  Do you think it is needed there? The Archimedeans are not transparent either.
 * [...but even at 100 pixels, it is hard to see...]  I think the visibility of the vertices is fine (see right). What I find more important is that the Catalans have the same orientation as the corresponding Archimedeans. So corresponding edges are actually orthogonal to each other.
 * [And the muddy-gray face colors for the Catalans isn't very attractive.]  It has to be a color that is unobtrusive as vertex color in the Archimedeans. This is essentially a question of taste, and it would not be a terrible idea to ignore it.
 * [I do wonder if we shouldn't add images with the names in the first section.]  Then we would basically have two redundant tables. The short table of names in the introduction can be justified because it is just that - short.
 * I don't see that your current version is better than my last version. What do you think is the actual improvement - apart from "orange is better than muddy-gray"? Watchduck (quack) 19:35, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

 * I am still waiting for an answer. Could you please point out one advantage - apart from being orange - that the orange solids have ahead of those with direction colors?
 * Concerning the "muddy-gray": I have a new monitor that shows colors the way they should be, and an old one whose colors have become a bit pallid. On the new one I see what I would call a warm beige, while on the old one it's closer to muddy-gray. I don't think we should worry which shade of which color is better anyway, but if that's what you want to do, please make sure that your monitor actually shows the correct colors. Watchduck (quack) 12:57, 10 March 2018 (UTC)

first sentence syntax
First sentence says "In mathematics, a Catalan solid, or Archimedean dual, is a dual polyhedron to an Archimedean solid." My mental parser trips over this right between "dual polyhedron" and "to an ...". Should something be between there? attached to? converted to? Don't grok. Could someone fix who knows what this should say? Tnx! 65.153.86.114 (talk) 19:51, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Nothing is missing, but maybe the structure isn't as clear as it could be. I made a tweak, what do you think?  --JBL (talk) 20:26, 24 February 2023 (UTC)

 * In slightly expanded form, it is a polyhedron which is dual to an Archimedean solid. Sounds clear to me. AnonMoos (talk) 23:36, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Yeah, makes much better sense to me this way - thanks! OTOH, since these shapes are far away from my expertise, I probably shouldn't fuss about sentences which wouldn't confuse others for whome the article was written.  Actually, I got here because I just wanted to look up dodecahedron. 65.153.86.114 (talk) 16:17, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Great, thanks. Ideally Wikipedia articles should be readable by people who don't already know everything in them!  :)  --JBL (talk) 17:46, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

Gloria Hatrick McLean

Gloria Hatrick McLean (March 10, 1918 – February 16, 1994) was an American actress and model.

Early life
Gloria was born on March 10, 1918, to Edgar B. Hatrick of Larchmont, New York. Her family spent the summers at The Broadmoor hotel and resort. She attended the Finch School in New York and spent two years studying drama at a dramatic school.

First marriage
On August 16, 1943, she married Edward Beale McLean Jr., a son of heiress Evalyn Walsh McLean and Edward Beale McLean, heir to The Washington Post. McLean, whose mother had owned the Hope diamond, had previously been married to Ann Carroll Meem, of Washington, D.C., from May 1938 to July 1943. Together Edward and Gloria had two sons: Ronald (born 1944) and Michael (born 1946). Ronald died on June 8, 1969, aged 24, in Vietnam as a commissioned Marine officer.

In January 1948, Gloria and Edward divorced and in October of that year, he married Manuela "Mollie" Hudson, the former wife of Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt Jr.

Second marriage

On August 9, 1949, Gloria married James Stewart, who adopted both children from her first marriage, Ronald, then age five, and Michael, age three. Together, she and Stewart had twin daughters born on May 7, 1951: Judy and Kelly. Kelly Stewart became an anthropologist.

According to her obituary in the Los Angeles Times, "Mrs. Stewart was active on the boards of the Greater Los Angeles Zoo Association, Natural History Museum, African Wildlife Foundation and St. John's Medical Center, and was a regular at charity dinners, dances and other events supporting those groups. ... She shared her husband's interests in skeet shooting, fishing, animals and travel. A fan magazine in 1985 called their partnership 'Dream Factory's Outstanding Marriage. From the 1950s onward, Mrs. Stewart was a supporter of conserving big-game animals, rather than hunting them, and in time brought her husband around to the same viewpoint.

The couple remained married until she died of lung cancer on February 16, 1994, at the age of 75; he joined her in death on July 2, 1997, aged 89, his last words being, "I'm going to be with Gloria now."

Dubai Internet City

Dubai Internet City (DIC) (مدينة دبي للإنترنت) is a neighborhood and an information technology and business park created by the Government of Dubai as a free economic zone in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

History
Dubai Internet City, a member of Dubai Holding subsidiary TECOM Investments, was founded in October 1999, and it opened its doors in October 2000. It was established by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.[8] It housed 100 companies at launch. In August 2000, Siemens Business Services (SBS), Cisco, and Sun Microsystems received Dubai Internet City’s first major infrastructure contracts.

As of 2019, DIC housed over 1,600 companies and has become the regional base of many of the world's news agencies as well as the main digital content generator for Arabic media.

Data center infrastructure provider Khazna announced it was establishing two new data centers in Dubai Internet City in 2022. In the same year, Intel announced the opening of its first artificial intelligence research and development center at Dubai Internet City. Visa established its headquarters for the CEMEA region and technology conglomerate Meta Platforms also established its regional headquarters in the UAE at Dubai Internet City in 2022. In December 2022, Dubai Internet City broke ground on a new area named Innovation Hub Phase 2.

In 2023, Dubai Internet City signed a strategic partnership with German Entrepreneurship GmbH to provide support to German start-up companies seeking to do business in Dubai. In the same year, technology company Yango expanded its offices into Dubai Internet City.

The economic rules of DIC allow companies to be exempt from all taxes and customs duty for a period of 50 years guaranteed by law. The park’s status as a free economic zone  also allows it to offer 100% foreign ownership, similar to other designated economic zones in the United Arab Emirates.

These freedoms have led many global information technology firms, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Google, Dell, Intel, Huawei, Samsung, SAP, Microsoft, IBM, Oracle Corporation, Tata Consultancy, 3M, Sun Microsystems, Cisco, HP, Nokia, Cognizant, Accenture, and as well as UAE-based companies such as Tecom Group, Ducont, to move their regional base to the DIC. DIC is located adjacent to other industrial clusters such as Dubai Media City and Dubai Knowledge Park (formerly Dubai Knowledge Village).

Dubai Internet City is a frequent participant in the GITEX GLOBAL trade show.

Location
Dubai Internet City is about 25 kilometres south of downtown Dubai city, on Sheikh Zayed Road between Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It is located adjacent to Dubai Marina, Jumeirah Beach Residence and the well-known Palm Jumeirah, areas which are rapidly becoming three of the most exclusive (and expensive) residential areas of Dubai. DIC is less than 1 km from the sea coast and is near several five-star hotels. The nearest metro station the eponymous Dubai Internet City station on the Red Line of the Dubai Metro, located on Sheikh Zayed Road.
