Biting the Newcomer (my first day trying to be bold) Feb 2005
Please stop removing content from Wikipedia; it is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Carrp | Talk 18:48, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)

That, and we want links to the Pearl Video. WhisperToMe 19:02, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Carrp | Talk 19:04, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I was not experimenting, I did it on purpose. AND it's not vandalism, it's a matter of opinion.Laurap414

 * Laura, I received you email with the text "who the heck are you?". I'd be happy to correspond with you, but please contact me on my talk page. I understand that you would like the Daniel Pearl video links removed because they are offensive. I also find them offensive, but unfortunately that's not justification for removal of information. The best place to discuss your concerns is at Talk:Daniel Pearl. Carrp | Talk 19:23, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)

re: page I edited Hi. You might also want to sneak a peek at Substubs and Manual of style. Thanks, and please don't hesitate to call on me if I can be of help to get you started off right. - Lucky 6.9 01:15, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

PepsiAmericas
The Category:Corporation stubs is extremely overpopulated. When I started cleaning up the category, it contained (rough estimate) over 3,000 stubs. In order to clean up the category, many articles had to be moved to other categories (e.g. Bank stubs), and some new categories had to be created (e.g. Restaurant stubs). For now, drink-stub is imo a better location for PepsiAmericas than corp-stub. Corp-stub is very broad, and is meant as a net for articles that can't fit into an already existing category. Drink-stub indicates what kind of corporation PepsiAmericas is: a beverage-related corporation. This is not a golden rule though: if there are enough articles, a new stub category might be created: drink-corp-stub, in order to make a distinction between articles about beverages, and articles about the corporations producing beverages. I hope this answers your question. And no, you didn't do anything wrong ;) Aecis 18:48, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

I am a little confused about your comment on the dab talk. You can learn to pipe links at Piped link. You can put the date after your name by signing four tildas eg: ~. You can find out about the style of dab pages at Manual of Style (disambiguation pages). Can you please re-explain your suggestion. --Commander Keane 11:58, August 14, 2005 (UTC)

Semi-automated template substitution

 * This page was modified to semi-automatically substitute templates using Pathoschild's template list. // Tawker 17:40, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, this is a few days ago :) - What it was was the bot was taking templates and putting in the full text in instead of the template message. Take a look at WP:SUBST it might be able to explain a bit better than I can -- Tawker 04:00, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Soiling
hi there Laurap414! I noticed you added Soiling to AfD. There are a couple of things you did slightly wrong, and I hope you don't mind me letting you know (I saw your userbox!) Firstly, see Merge for advice on how to suggest a merger of pages. Secondly, when adding to AfD, remember to use the "subst" in section 2 of the "how-to nominate an article" guide on the WP:AFD page. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me! Con Dem Talk 05:33, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi there again. The thing to do when you see something that you think should be merged into another article, as in where there is overlap like in soiling, is to suggest a merge using Merge. An article that is "in outline format, not in full sentences" does not warrant an AfD - in this case, you should add a cleanup tag listed under Cleanup resources, or a wikify tag, if the problem is to do with formatting. Of course, you're very welcome to have a go at reorganising or reformatting an article yourself so that it fits in with Wikipedia's Manual of Style. The deletion policy lists those things which might make an article or image appropriate for listing under AfD. For non-controversial deletion of articles you can use the prod tag. If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page and I'll be very happy to help! Con Dem Talk 00:43, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Probably not. The software behind the website doesn't always redirect miscapitalized spellings automatically. In any case, I don't think the extra redirect is doing any harm. --DMG413 17:59, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Soiling
Hello Laura. Don't worry, I won't be offended. But I think that if it has to be merged, than strictly encopresis and fecal incontinence would need to me merged too. The 3 all mean pretty much the same with minor differences mainly depending on the context. I would like to do a "cleanup", meaning I could translate the article in lay-terms that are easier to understand and adding references and evidence. But I will only do it once the threat that the article will disappear shortly is being lifted, because I don't want to do the work just for somebody else to delete it. I think I have a very good article on this subject valuable for all who are affected by this problem, and I understand it needs cleanup. But I also understand Mr.Condem who thins that a Guide on Management doesn't belong to an Encyclopedia. Please make up your mind whether I should carry on with cleaning or not. I would NOT be happy to alter the Encopresis- or Fecal soiling- pages, because these articles are both very good as they are, and I don't want to mess them up. Greetings, Peter Aberpete 19:20, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi there. I have followed your order and done a spell-check, removed the ""s, and rephrased some sentences. I'm sure it is still not perfect, I'm new to Wikipedia and my English has always been crap. I can only do more if you tell me exactly where the problems are. With your permission I would remove the copyedit-tag. Greetings, PeterAberpete 01:54, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks from Mohammad Gani
Hello Laura, please pardon me as I could not figure out how to send a reply to you. Please feel free to send me private mail at. Once you have this email address stored somewhere, please delete it (and this message) from this page. I am thinking about the article title: entrepreneurship in economic theory. Thanks 70.31.37.205 22:53, 11 April 2006 (UTC)Gani

Laura, I would have no objection to merging my article with First Book of Nephi. The problem is that if a reader enters "Lehi's Dream" as a search term he gets nothing. If it is made possible for that reader to enter that search term and get First Book of Nephi that's fine. Anne Wingate

Hiram Abrams
Hey, thanks for putting the notice on the article. I'm fixing it now; I will delete the Hiram Abrams page and make the move, your copy and paste attempt to fix will be taken care of. Happy editing to you! Teke ( talk ) 03:29, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Vin DiCarlo
Thanks for mentioning the google cache (already realised that, I've been around on wikipedia for a long time!), but I recall even older versions of Vin DiCarlo (sadly it has been deleted a lot of times without a proper process, this is hopefully going to the first full AfD for it). Also the really annoying thing is the google cache doesn't give you the nice wiki code, only the processed version the googlebot saw on wikipedia. So I can't see that actuall wiki code to use in the article directly or the older versions. Oh well, is times like this that I wish I was an Admin. Would make it so much easier to improve articles like this. Anyway, thanks again for the thought with helping me out. :) Mathmo Talk 20:13, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

David Howe
Hi Laura,

Thanks for your question regarding the Robert ParkeHarrison page. I have added some text to support notability. I was (and am) hoping others will add more to fill out the page. Hopefully what I have added will do for now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DavidJHowe (talk • contribs) 03:22, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

WP:FRIENDLY documentation change
With this edit, do you mean that Friendly doesn't work in IE or that clearing your cache doesn't work in IE? Ioeth (talk contribs friendly) 15:52, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Oh -- since the documentation states that Friendly doesn't work in IE, I thought to remove the reference to Control F5. I can see how it would be confusing. Please feel free fix to be more clear, or I would be happy to. laurap414 (talk) 15:54, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * That makes sense! Come to think of it, I'm not really sure if it works in IE or not...I've never tried.  Are you using IE?  Ioeth (talk contribs friendly) 15:55, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

I am using IE6. I "installed" it and nothing seemed to happen when I refreshed. But then I saw that the page states several times that it only works in Firefox so I uninstalled it. How would I know it was "working"? laurap414 (talk) 15:58, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * If it was working you would see a couple of new tabs on certain screens. If you went to an article, you should see a "tag" tab and if you go to a user talk page, you should see a "welcome" tab.  There are screenshots on the documentation page that should give you an insight into what they will look like.  Ioeth (talk contribs friendly) 16:37, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Well IE6 doesn't even have tabs so doubtful that would work! Does the change to the documentation make sense, or should it be further modified? laurap414 (talk) 16:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * No, it doesn't add tabs into IE; it adds new tabs to the top of your Wikipedia skin. You know the page history and edit tabs...the new tabs will be like those.  Ioeth (talk contribs friendly) 16:48, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Ohhhhh those tabs!!! OK it added the tabs but when I click on it IE says "Error on Page" so the documentation is correct, no dice.

Welcoming Newbies == ==

Hey There,

I noticed you put a reference to a speedy tag on a new user's page without "welcoming" them. I always try to put a {subst:welcome!} on a newbie's page in addition to the warning -- encourages them to "try, try again", you know? Just a suggestion. We were all newbies once!! :-) Anyway good luck with the adminship. Cheers, laurap414 (talk)  —Preceding comment was added at 16:53, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Thanks for suggesting that. However, I don't believe WP:TW has a function to add {{subst:welcome!}} on a page when it is not there.

Saints
adminhelp Can someone please semi-protect New Orleans Saints? The Indianapolis Colts and Drew Brees are already protected. Also consider protecting other Superbowl articles. laurap414 (talk) 21:07, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
 * There has been a related debate on WP:VPR whether to preemptively change the protection for anticipated vandalism. The articles you mentioned have already had some vandalism. The Saints article has not yet been hit yet, but the article is on users' watchlists. Cheers. Zzyzx11 (talk) 21:18, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

 * Hi Laurap414, the users who respond to helpme requests are not necessarily administrators, so we don't have any power to protect these pages. You may wish to file your request at requests for page protection. Alternatively, you can use adminhelp if you need help specifically from an administrator. Thanks! -- Sh i r ik ( Questions or Comments? ) 21:18, 7 February 2010 (UTC)  THANKS!!!

I see what you are saying but then why is Colts protected (it's not a BLP)? Also the Saints has had some minor vandalism already today (not counting mine ;-). Cheers, laurap414 (talk) 21:24, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

 * I cannot speak for User:JForget, who was the one who protected that Colts article yesterday. I guess that admin felt there was enough frequent vandalism within the few hours before he changed the protection. As for the Saints article history there only has been a few edit to that page in the last few hours, not enough to protect now IMO. But that might change later today. Cheers.

New deal for page patrollers
Hi ,

In order to better control the quality  of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:28, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Make it look good
In the English Wikipedia a lot of material looks strange because our specific Romanian letters appear as boxes. I'm new at Wiki but very protective of Romanian literature and I want it to look good everywhere. I took the liberty to change the first sentence. The content is good, but if it doesn't offend anyone I'd like to change more of the spelling of this page as time permits. --Doina Collins 16:31, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

 * I see that my test edit of "Brasov" has been reverted by someone who has the Romanian "sh" on the keyboard. It can't be seen in the English Wikipedia on my average American computer. A lot of people must be seeing it the same way and it is very unpleasant to read, since English speakers can't guess what the empty boxes stand for. It's not clear to me what to do, but we have to do something to fix this problem, that English Wikipedia shows Romanian orthography in the most ridiculous manner on average American computers.--Doina Collins 14:31, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
 * First of all, there's a whole list of characters, including the Romanian ones, right beneath the box where you write articles. Second, what browser are you using? Boxes instead of special characters are maybe a 1998 phenomenon, not usually true today. Using Romanian characters is completely standard on Wikipedia – see, for instance, Braşov, Mureş County, Lucrețiu Pătrășcanu, and Gheorghe Şincai, not to mention the entire Romanian-language Wikipedia – so I would ask you to please stop removing diacritics. The fact that your browser is defective should not be allowed to diminish the accuracy of this encyclopedia. Biruitorul 20:24, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Lighten up, I only changed two letters as a test. Let's remember WP:AGF and WP:CON. I don't think we want to limit the appreciation of Romanian literature on the English Wiki only to the infinitesimal pecentage of English speakers that know the Romanian alphabet. I was alerted to the problem by American friends whom I sent to the English Wiki to learn about Romania, and they gave it up fast. Some have computers of about the same age as mine, and asked me "What's with the boxes?" and the others asked me "What are those extra letters?" I repeat, the English Wiki is for English speakers. The information about Japan does not spell Tokyo with Japanese characters. --Doina Collins 00:30, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
 * To begin with, sorry if I sounded harsh, but please don't tell me about the rules on your first day here–and remember this rule: WP:IAR. Second, someone did make a point similar to yours recently, and look at the reaction he got. The fact is that Romanian uses diacritics and anyone with more than a passing interest in the language needs to know them; plus, there are only five letters that use them. Third, you can tell your friends to try downloading a Romanian font. I myself could see Georgian characters only as boxes until recently, but then I downloaded a Georgian font and voilà! Of course, I still can't read Georgian, but it looks better than a series of boxes does. Fourth, while the title of the Tokyo article has its name spelled in English, it's also given twice in Japanese. Last, and perhaps most importantly, we have redirects, so that if someone types in, for instance, Brasov (as would be natural on a US keyboard), that will automatically redirect the user to Braşov. If you still don't believe me, though, you can take up this issue with Bogdangiusca, Dahn, Jmabel, Ronline, etc. Believe me, it's a non-starter at this point. Biruitorul 01:42, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

To put this more succinctly: it has nothing to do with your computer being "American". It's just a matter of what fonts you have on your computer. Fonts with broader coverage are readily available, and free. However, this is why many of us prefer T-cedilla and S-cedilla (Ţ and Ş) for online use rather than the more correct Romanian Ṭ and Ṣ, because so many fonts lack the latter. - Jmabel | Talk 06:23, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually, Ț and Ș are correct, not Ṭ and Ṣ. Biruitorul 02:25, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Oops, my sloppiness. Since I always use ŞşŢţ I hadn't properly looked. - Jmabel | Talk 02:02, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Fine examples?
While I am not Romanian and shouldn't really be expected to be even vaguely familiar with any of the names listed there, I do find it odd that no mention's made of Eugene Ionesco or Paul Celan... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.71.245.81 (talk) 06:22, 26 January 2007 (UTC).

 * No worries, are lots of important writers, not mentioned.--Silenzio76 (talk) 01:44, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Where is Norman Manea? Shouldn't he be in this article somewhere? Poldy Bloom (talk) 17:49, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Major removals without comment
was a sequence of anonymous edits that amounted to a major removal of names, without any discussion or summary. I'm not knowledgable enough to say what late 20th century authors really belong on this list, but at least some of the names were familiar to me, and I'm surprised to see them removed. Would someone more knowledgable please weigh in? Thanks. - Jmabel | Talk 00:17, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid I'm not very knowledgeable on this topic either, but as far as know, none of the names removed would necessarily belong to the list. What I want to say is that the list looked a bit unbalanced, with too much weight being given to the contemporary names. And most (if not all) of the names removed don't say anything to me (in terms of important Romanian literature). But someone more knowledgeable on contemporary Romanian literature should give his/her opinion as well. Alexrap 12:35, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

John 20:15

John 20:15 is the 15th verse of the twentieth chapter of the Gospel of John in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. Mary Magdalene has returned to Jesus' tomb and found it empty. She does not know that Jesus has risen from death and they begin conversing without her realizing his identity.

Content
In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads:

 * Jesus saith unto her, Woman,
 * why weepest thou? whom seekest
 * thou? She, supposing him to be
 * the gardener, saith unto him,
 * Sir, if thou have borne him hence,
 * tell me where thou hast laid him,
 * and I will take him away.

The English Standard Version translates the passage as:

 * Jesus said to her, "Woman, why
 * are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?"
 * Supposing him to be the gardener,
 * she said to him, "Sir,
 * if you have carried him away,
 * tell me where you have laid him,
 * and I will take him away."

For a collection of other versions see BibleHub John 20:15.

Analysis
According to John, "Woman, why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for?" is the first thing Jesus says upon his resurrection. The first part "Why are you crying?" repeats the statement made by the angels in John 20:13. Jesus adds "Who is it you are looking for?" This question, which Jesus has asked others previously in the Gospel, is often read as a wider question of what people are seeking in their lives. That Jesus quickly understands why Mary is weeping is also said to show his greater understanding of humanity and human feelings than the angels.

Mary fails, for an unexplained reason, to recognize Jesus, but it is speculated that her sorrow is too overwhelming. Reformation theologian John Calvin and others read this as a metaphor: so focused is she on the worldly concern of who took Jesus' body, she is temporarily blind to the greater event behind its "disappearance". It is also possible she could not see clearly because she was weeping. She mistakes him for the gardener, generally believed to be one of the workers of Joseph of Arimathea. According to Calvin, how she addressed him in the original texts, translated as "sir", was the typical form of address for lower class labourers in the period, or according to Henry Alford, "the appellation of courtesy to an unknown person".

This is the only place in the Bible where the word gardener, κηπουρός (képouros), is mentioned. The word does occur regularly in secular works from this period. It is perhaps linked with John 19:41, which mentions that Jesus was buried in a garden. John is the only one of the canonical gospels to mention this.

The mention of the gardener is also perhaps linked to a Jewish story from the period which attempted to discredit the resurrection. One version of this story supposes that a gardener named Judas was worried that the crowds coming to see Jesus would trample his cabbages and he thus moved Jesus' body to another tomb. When Mary and others found the tomb empty, the resurrection myth was born. Von Campenhausen thus argues that the author of John added the mention of the gardener to try and counter this story. Schnackenberg thinks it is also possible that the Jewish story originated from this mention of a gardener.

Hoskyns and Lightfoot both support the idea that Jesus as a gardener is a metaphor relating to the Garden of Eden.

That Mary easily mistakes Jesus for a common labourer adds detail to why she has failed to recognize him. It seems to contradict the notion that Jesus' body was horribly mangled by the crucifixion. It also seems at odds with Kastner's view that Jesus was nude at the time of his resurrection as gardeners at the time would normally have been clothed.

Mary does not tell the supposed gardener of whom she is speaking, also seen as evidence of her single-mindedness. Jesus seems to encourage this confusion by addressing her as woman and asking questions to which he already knows the answer. Why he does this is still something of a mystery, though some ideas have been proposed. The suspense of Mary interacting with Jesus while not knowing his true identity does add considerable extra drama to the scene. The trope of a returning hero being unrecognized or in disguise dates at least to Homer's The Odyssey and was common in Greco-Roman literature for many centuries. Martin Dibelius links it to the many stories of the Greco-Roman gods walking among men and then suddenly revealing their divine nature. André Feuillet sees echoes of the Song of Sol in this passage.

The question she asks him implies that she hopes to recover Jesus' body and rebury it. F.F. Bruce suggests that this willingness to rebury Jesus shows that Mary must have been a woman of some wealth as such a reburial would have been a costly affair. Bruce also believes this initiative shows Mary's enterprising character. According to Leonard, St. Theresa read the same text as an illustration of Mary's audaciousness.

name
If his father's name was Rydz how did he come to be called Rydz-Smigly? Adam 23:33, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

 * As the Polska Organizacja Wojskowa was illegal and secret, most of its members (and later members of the Polish Legions as well) adopted a nom de guerre. Śmigły is just that - his pseudonym. It basically means Fast or Agile.

 * After the WWI and PBW, many former Legionists permanently attached their wartime codenames to their real surnames, usually as the first part (that's why Rydz is often called Edward Śmigły-Rydz: - ). This had probably something to do with the long Polish tradition of attaching the name of the coat of arms to the surname. See the article on Surname for details. Does that answer your question? Halibutt 02:04, May 31, 2005 (UTC)

It does, thankyou. I was going to ask why some books call him Smigly-Rydz instead of Rydz-Smigly, but you have answered that too. Could I suggest that these points be included in the article? Adam 05:26, 31 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Read the article thoroughly. He placed Smigly before Rydz when he became Marshal of Poland.

--Alexvonf 13:09, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

No problem. Halibutt 07:38, May 31, 2005 (UTC)

Anon question
What was his involvement in the atrocities against Germans in Polish controlled territories? http://www.jrbooksonline.com/polish_atrocities.htm

 * Dear anon. The book referencing the alleged atrocities was published in 1940 (Volk und Reich Verlag Berlin, 2nd. revised ed., 1940, 311 pp.). The above page (A White Nationalist Literary Resource) also justifies German invasion of Poland, denies Holocaust, Isreal's right to existence and contains similar garbage. Sufficient to say that the alleged 'Polish attrocities' never happened. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 15:24, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Dear Piotrus. That some statements in a source are not correct does is NOT sufficient to dismiss all of the statemenets. Read up on "necessary and sufficient conditions". Your statement "Sufficient to say..." is therefore false, especially where it is the contents of the referring "above page" that contains similar garbage, and NOT the "Volk und Reich" book itself. In effect you are saying that any links found on a webpage that had garbage in it are therefore also garbage. That is flatly NOT correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.56.235.32 (talk) 15:35, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Inaccuacies?
This article states that Rydz-Śmigły commanded the Lativan army in 1919. I do not believe this to be correct. Rydz commanded the Polish contingent sent to Lativa to help expel the Red Army from its territory. But I believe that the overall commander of the Allied forces in Lativa was the British general Harold Alexander. I will research this matter some more before making any changes.

Second, there is no mention of the fact that however delicately one may put this, that Rydz-Śmigły was not precisely Poland's greatest general. To be fair, Rydz was a very brave soldier and an able subordinate; his natural forte was command at the division and corps level. However, as commander in chief of the Polish armed forces, Rydz-Śmigły was promoted above his level of competence. To be fair, the military situation of Poland in 1939 was probably hopeless, and I think to blame the Polish defeat entirely on Rydz-Śmigły would be very unjust, but the point remains, that Rydz-Śmigły did not wage the most effective campaign as the job of being Commander in Chief was simply too big for him. I would imagine that some will disargee with this interpretation of Rydz-Śmigły and others may find this to be too POV, but perhaps a compromise can be worked out.A.S. Brown 19:46, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Rydz-Smigly speech in March 1939: Poland wants war... and painting of himself riding victoriously through Berlin's Brandenburg gate
Did not Rydz-Smigly hold a speech in appr. March 1939 (1/2 year before start of WW II), where he declared something to the effect,'that Poland wants war and Germany will not be able to stop this' ? How come this speech is missing in Wikipedia? There was also a painting in the Palace of Warsaw depicting Rydz-Smigly riding victoriously through Berlin's Brandenburg gate. Since he was a painter, did he painted that painting himself? There are a number of painting by him shown in this Wikipedia article, why not this one? MG
 * Hmm, where have you seen such picture ? --Lysytalk 21:50, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

 * painting at the palace in Warsaw MG 3/3/2006

Well, there's no proof that he said something like that but it's quite possible. In the early 30th Pilsudzki in his letter to the French head of state claimed that the situation in new born nazi Germany is critical and sooner or later Germany will be dangerous for peace. So he suggested that the best bet possible is to make a joint millitary action aiming at Hitler's regime. (Frence never admitted there was letter like that but according to Polish historians there are proofs in archives). Concluding, if Rydz-Śmigły said that, then it was due to the situation in nazi Germany. Since 1936 it became clear that Hitler was preparing Germany for war. In 1939 and before there were a few occurance like Austria annexation, Czech's Sudety annexation, Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact, some territorial demands from Poland. These are facts. If Poland invaded nazi Germany, it (Poland) would be the bad one and the Germany would be a victim but...at least millions of people would have survived. Unfortunately Poland did not preventivelly attacked nazi Germany and you know well what happened next. PS. Being honest I do not believe that Śmigły really said that. In 1939 German army was the biggest and the most powerfull one in the whole world.(Source?) He knew that. Attacking this "Giant" allone would be a suicide and Śmigły was not an idiot. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.27.118.202 (talk) 10:29, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Munich Agreement
the article also leaves out the fact in the Munich Agreement, Poland was given the so-called Olsa area from Chekoslovakia; this area was immediately occupied by Polish troops. The description of the pre-war Polish politics seems to me also to be a bit of a whitewash (the aggressive stands of the Polish state indicated e.g. by the ultimatum to Lithuania is not even mentioned). Maybe a more neutral historian should give this page a work-over.

Somoe more comments: I think it is unfair to post Polish discussions in an English language document; we would also like to know how R-S died - was it the AK, the Germans, the KGB or natural causes??

23.06.2007, Gerald

The discussion in Polish at the top of the page is not about how did Rydz-śmigły die. They are arguing about which wikipedia (German or Polish) is better. The answer is: Rydz-Śmigły was murdered by Gestapo. And the first suggestion of yours. It is true that there is no any information about Olsa, Lithuania but it is much more complicated. There is no answer which would be accepted by everyone as the true one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.27.118.202 (talk) 10:47, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Alleged Quote
Polish Marshal Rydz-Smigly:"...Poland wants war with Germany and Germany will not be able to avoid it even if she wants to...." allegedly quoted that way by the Daily Mail, August 6th, 1939

--196.209.104.19 (talk) 19:41, 1 June 2008 (UTC) it's fake, August 6th 1939 - ita was Sunday and there was no Daily Mail (or Sunday Mail) printed that day (first print on Sunday - 1982).

 * do you have a source for that claim that the Daily Mail was never printed on a Sunday and therefore, not on August 6, 1939?

 * You mentioned 1982...seems you did a hatchet job of research and mixed up the fact that the independent newspaper Mail on Sunday debuted in 1982. That has nothing to do with the [Daily Mail] --80.150.5.134 (talk) 12:37, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Resources about Rydz-Śmigły in English
One English source (a book by Seidner) is listed in the current article. I would appreciate anyone pointing to any other works in English. I would imagine there is a richer set of journal articles in English---but is there no biography in English? That would seem to be a bit of a missing piece as far as the interwar history of Europe is concerned, especially of Eastern Europe, at least for those of us not lucky enough to read Polish. Regardless of his competency and/or politics (and I'm sure Poles hold strong opinions of all persuasions to this day!) Rydz-Śmigły's would seem to be a fascinating career to study in the context of the struggle of the eastern European states to survive between the Bolshevik Revolution and the Nazi aggressions of 1938 and 1939...Bigbalagan (talk) 16:46, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Snap pea

The snap pea, also known as the sugar snap pea, is an edible-pod pea with rounded pods and thick pod walls, in contrast to snow pea pods, which are flat with thin walls. The name mangetout (French for "eat all") can apply to snap peas and snow peas.

A snap pea named "butter pea" was described in French literature in the 19th century, but the old snap pea was lost in cultivation by the mid-20th century. The present snap pea originated from Calvin Lamborn's cross between a shelling pea mutant found in 1952 by Dr. M.C. Parker and a snow pea cultivar. Researchers at Twin Falls, Idaho hoped that the cross might counteract twisting and buckling seen in varieties at the time. With this cross, snap pea was recreated and the first new snap pea was released in 1979 under the name 'Sugar Snap'.

Snap peas, like all other peas, are pod fruits. An edible-podded pea is similar to a garden, or English, pea, but the pod is less fibrous, and is edible when young. Pods of the edible-podded pea, including snap peas, do not have a membrane and do not open when ripe. At maturity, the pods grow to around 4 to 8 cm in length. Pods contain three to nine peas. The plants are climbing, and pea sticks or a trellis or other support system is required for optimal growth. Some cultivars are capable of climbing to 2 m high but plants are more commonly around 1 to 1.3 m high, for ease of harvest and cultivation.

Cultivation
The snap pea is a cool season legume. It may be planted in spring as early as the soil can be worked. Seeds should be planted 1 - 1+1/2 in apart and 1/2 - 1 in deep in a 3 in band. It tolerates light frost when young; it also has a wider adaptation and tolerance of higher temperatures than some other pea cultivars. Snap peas may grow to 2 m or more, but more typically are about 1.3 m. They have a vining habit and require a trellis or similar support structure. They should get 4–6 hours of sunlight each day. Plant pea seeds in soil with a pH of between 5.8 and 7.0 for best results.

Cultivars
Below is a list of several snap pea cultivars currently available, ordered by days to maturity. Days to maturity is from germination to edible pod stage; add about 7 days to estimate shell pea stage. Amish Snap is the only true heirloom snap pea. PMR indicates some degree of powdery mildew resistance; afila types, also called semi-leafless, maintain an erect, interlocked, plant habit that allows good air movement through the canopy and reduces risk from lodging and mold.

• Sugar Ann, 52 days, 1984 AAS winner

• Sugar Bon, 56 days

• Amish Snap, 60 days, tall climber, heirloom

• Cascadia, 60 days, PMR

• Sugar Daddy, 60 days

• Super Sugar Snap, 60 days, PMR, tall climber

• Sugar Snap, 62 days, tall climber, 1979 AAS winner

• Super Snappy, 65 days, PMR

• Sugar Lace II, 68 days, PMR, afila

Production
Commercial snap peas for export are produced in Peru, Guatemala, Colombia, Zimbabwe, Kenya and China.

Culinary
Snap peas are often served in salads or eaten whole. They may also be stir-fried or steamed. Before being eaten, mature snap pea pods may need to be "stringed," which means the membranous string running along the top of the pod from base to tip is removed. Over-cooking the pods will make them come apart.

Dakshineswar Kali Temple

Dakshineswar Kali Temple or Dakshineswar Kalibari is a Hindu navaratna temple in Dakshineswar, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. Situated on the eastern bank of the Hooghly River, the presiding deity of the temple is Bhavatarini (Kali), a form of Mahadevi or Parashakti Adya Kali, otherwise known as Adishakti Kalika. The temple was built in 1855 by Rani Rashmoni, a Zamindar, philanthropist and a devotee of Kali Maa. The temple is known for its association with Ramakrishna and Ma Sarada Devi, mystics of 19th century Bengal.

The main temple was inspired by Navaratna style Radhakanta temple in Tollygunge, built by Babu Ramnath Mondal of Bawali Raj family. The temple compound, apart from the nine-spired main temple, contains a large courtyard surrounding the temple, with rooms along the boundary walls. There are twelve shrines dedicated to Shiva, Kali's consort, along the riverfront, a temple to Radha–Krishna, a bathing ghat on the river, a shrine dedicated to Rani Rashmoni. 'Nahabat', the chamber in the northwestern corner just beyond the last of the Shiva temples, is where Ramakrishna and Maa Sarada spent a considerable part of their lives.

History
The Dakshineswar Kali Temple was founded around the middle of the 19th century by Rani Rashmoni. Rani Rashmoni was a Mahishya by caste and was well known for her philanthropic activities. In the year 1847, Rashmoni prepared to go upon a long pilgrimage to the sacred Hindu city of Kashi to express her devotions to the Divine Mother. Rani was to travel in twenty-four boats, carrying relatives, servants, and supplies. According to traditional accounts, the night before the pilgrimage began, Rashmoni had a vision of the Divine Mother goddess Kali in a dream and reportedly said, "There is no need to go to Banaras. Install my statue in a beautiful temple on the banks of the Ganges river and arrange for my worship there. Then I shall manifest myself in the image and accept worship at that place."

Profoundly affected by the dream, Rani immediately looked for and purchased a 30000 acre plot in the village of Dakshineswar. The large temple complex was built between 1847 and 1855. The 20 acre plot was bought from an Englishman, Jake Hastie, and was then popularly known as Saheban Bagicha. Partly old Muslim burial ground shaped like a tortoise, considered befitting for the worship of Shakti according to Tantra traditions, it took eight years and nine hundred thousand rupees to complete the construction. The idol of Goddess Kali was installed on the Snana Yatra day on 31 May 1855 amid festivities at the temple formerly known as Sri Sri Jagadishwari Kali, with Ramkumar Chhattopadhyay as the head priest. Soon his younger brother Gadai or Gadadhar (later known as Ramakrishna) moved in and so did his nephew Hriday to assist him. On 31 May 1855 more than 1 lakh (one hundred thousand) Brahmins were invited from different parts of the country to grace the auspicious occasion. The next year, Ramkumar Chattopadhyay died, and the position was given to Ramakrishna. His wife, Sarada Devi, stayed in the south side of the Nahabat (music room) in a small room on the ground floor, which is now a shrine dedicated to her. Ramakrishna was responsible for bringing much in the way of both fame and pilgrims to the temple.

Rani Rashmoni lived for only five years and nine months after the inauguration of the temple. She fell seriously ill in 1861. Realizing that her death was near, she decided to hand over the property she had purchased in Dinajpur (now in Bangladesh) as a legacy for the maintenance of the temple to the temple trust. She accomplished her task on 18 February 1861 and died on the next day. After her death, her sons-in-law took to celebrating Durga Puja in their respective premises.

Architecture
Built in the navaratna or nine spires style of Bengal architecture, the three-storeyed south-facing temple has nine spires distributed in the upper two storeys, and stands on a high platform with a flight of stairs, overall it measures 46 ft square and rises over 100 ft high.

The garbha griha (sanctum sanctorum) houses an idol of goddess Kali, known as Bhavatarini, standing on the chest of a supine Shiva, and the two idols are placed on a thousand-petaled lotus throne made of silver.

Close to the main temple are the row of twelve identical Shiva temples built facing the east in the typical aat-chala Bengal architecture, they are built on either side of the ghat on the Hooghly river. To the North east of the Temple Complex is the Vishnu Temple or the Radha Kanta Temple. A flight of steps lead to the columned verandah and into the temple where a silver throne rests with a 21+1/2 in idol of Lord Krishna and a 16 in idol of Radha.

James R Scales Fine Arts Center

The Scales Fine Arts Center is home to Wake Forest University's performing and visual arts departments. Named in 1979 in honor of James Ralph Scales, the 11th President of Wake Forest, the facility consists of two sections that are now referred to as Lower and Upper Scales but was once described as "one great hallelujah." Lower Scales houses the theatre, dance, and art departments while Upper Scales is home to the music department.

Dedicated as "The Fine Arts Center" in 1976, the lower wing houses the Harold C. Tedford Main Stage Theatre, the Ring Theatre (a theatre-in-the-round), the Eleanor Layfield Davis Painting Studio, and the Mary Duke Biddle Greenroom. Also located in the lower wing is the Hanes Art Gallery, named for Charlotte and Phillip Hanes, and an arts slide library dedicated to Andrew Lewis Aycock, retired Professor of English, who made the collection possible.

The music wing, dedicated in 1982, houses Brendle Recital Hall, a 630-seat performance space named for James David Brendle. A dedicated space for student performances, Brendle Hall is also the home of the Secrest Artists Series as well as hosting visiting speakers and the Lilting Banshees Comedy Troupe.

Herzogenaurach

Herzogenaurach (Herziaura) is a town in the district of Erlangen-Höchstadt, in Bavaria, Germany. It is home to two major international sporting goods companies, Adidas and Puma, and Schaeffler Group, a car parts manufacturer.

Geography
Herzogenaurach is situated in the Middle Franconia area of Bavaria, 23 km northwest of Nuremberg. The town is located on the Aurach river, a tributary of the Regnitz river.

History
Herzogenaurach was first mentioned in a document from 1002 under the name of Uraha when Holy Roman Emperor Henry II granted the town to the Prince-Bishopric of Bamberg.

In 1948, when Adolf Dassler and Rudolf Dassler left their shoe company to make their own, the town was called "the town of bent necks"—people looked down to see which shoes strangers wore.

Economy
Herzogenaurach has gained global fame as the birthplace of two giant sporting goods companies: Adidas and Puma, each founded respectively by brothers Adolf Dassler and Rudolf Dassler, after an acrimonious familial split in 1948. Operating since the 1960s, both companies' headquarters are still located in the town, originally on opposite sides of the Aurach River, and brand loyalty was sharply divided as well. For many years, Adidas and Puma workers would not associate with each other, and even when Adolf and Rudi died, they were buried in opposite ends of the town's cemetery. These differences have cleared up over the years.

The headquarters of Schaeffler Group, a manufacturer of car parts, is also located in Herzogenaurach.

Sport
In keeping with the traditional social divide between supporters of Adolf Dassler and of Rudolf Dassler, the town's two football clubs were divided by the Adidas/Puma split: ASV Herzogenaurach was supported by Adidas, while FC Herzogenaurach endorsed Puma's footwear. Both clubs still play at amateur level.

The Argentina national football team were based in Herzogenaurach for the 2006 FIFA World Cup.

Néstor De la Torre, Mexico's Director of National Teams, said the Mexico national football team (Selección de fútbol de México) would gather for 12 days in the city, its last stop before heading to South Africa for the 2010 World Cup.

The German national football team stayed at the Adidas "Home Ground", both in preparation of the European Championship 2021 and during the European Championship in 2024.

Herzo Base
Herzogenaurach was the location of a military airfield beginning in the 1930s. The airfield was originally designed as an airfield by a French architect and constructed by the Deutsche Luftwaffe (Air Force), named Deutsche Fliegerschule (German pilot school). Initially, the post was limited in its use as a Hitler youth training school due to limitations imposed by the Versailles Treaty after World War I.

However, fighter pilots soon began training in civilian clothing. In March 1936, the Luftwaffe took official control. The airfield was mainly used as a fuelling point for aircraft providing air cover for troops during the invasion of Austria and Czechoslovakia. In early September of each year, planes took off from the airfield to fly over the annual Nazi party rally (Reichsparteitag) staged at Zeppelinwiese (Zeppelin Field) in Nuremberg.

During the Western Allied invasion of Germany in April 1945, the United States Third Army seized the airfield. It was designated as ALG R-29. It was first occupied by a transportation unit followed by the USAAF 354th Fighter Group in May. In May 1946, the 2nd Radio Corps took over the installation and renamed it "Herzo Base". In 1947 the base was occupied by the U.S. Army Security Agency up until 1971, when it was replaced by the 210th Field Artillery Group (re-designated as the 210th Field Artillery Brigade on 16 September 1980) which occupied Herzo Base until 1992. Herzo Base was included in the base closure plan. On 4 August 1992, the installation was officially returned to the German Government. It has since served as a civilian recreational airfield, with ICAO code.

International relations
Herzogenaurach is twinned with:
 * 🇦🇹 Wolfsberg, Austria, since 1968

Chemical King

Chemical King is the name of two characters in the DC Comics universe. The first was Mr. Lambert, who was murdered under the direction of Alfred Stryker in "The Case of the Chemical Syndicate", the feature story of Detective Comics #27. The second character named Chemical King is a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes in the 30th century.

Fictional character biography
Chemical King was born Condo Arlik on the planet Phlon, the son of Darvon Arlik, (though some sources state he is from the planet Valdow ). He is a mutant with the power to act as a human catalyst and manipulate the speed of chemical reactions.

Chemical King's name is first mentioned in "The Adult Legion" story in Adventure Comics #354, where his future self is stated to have sacrificed himself to prevent World War VII. These stories were believed to be true glimpses of the Legion's future, and it was not until years later that they were revealed to belong to a different possible timeline.

In Chemical King's full debut (Adventure Comics #371), he is a member of the Legion Academy and works undercover to infiltrate the Legion of Super-Villains. After graduating alongside Timber Wolf, he becomes a full Legion member in Adventure Comics #372 (September 1968). Chemical King appears in few subsequent stories afterwards. Plagued with self-doubts over the usefulness of his powers, he dies in Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes #228 (June 1977), sacrificing his life to stop Deregon, a Dark Circle agent and the governor of Australia, from starting World War VII, thus fulfilling the prophecy of his first posthumous appearance.

Later the sorcerer Mordru resurrects Chemical King and millions of other corpses as part of a plan to conquer the universe. The "zombie" Chemical King displays limited imagination with his abilities, igniting pockets of methane gas and starting fires. He is readily disposed of.

Post Zero Hour
In post-Zero Hour continuity, he first appears in Legionnaires #59 (April 1998) then again in issue #64 (September 1998). He is not a Legionnaire, but instead works as a reporter. According to the Encyclopedia of the DC Universe, he was supposed to be in a relationship with Invisible Kid, but this was never verified in the comic. This version of the character has dark skin, instead of the Caucasian skin of the pre-Zero Hour version.

Post-Infinite Crisis
The events of the Infinite Crisis miniseries restored a close analogue of pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths Legion to continuity, as seen in "The Lightning Saga" story arc in Justice League of America and Justice Society of America and in the "Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes" story arc in Action Comics. In Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds #1, an image of Condo alongside Invisible Kid and Ferro Lad can be seen in the Superman Museum, confirming that he is still dead.

In the Legion Academy storyline featured in Adventure Comics (beginning with #523), one of the Academy trainees is a native of Phlon named Hadru Jamik, a.k.a. Chemical Kid, whose father used a genetic modification based on Condo Arlik's mutation to grant Hadru the same abilities. The elder Jamik is later forced to give the same modification to a female criminal named Queega Semk to cover his illegal gambling debts. Semk, now calling herself Alchemical Girl, then attempts to force further accommodations out of Jamik using strongarm tactics, only to be beaten and captured by Chemical Kid and his fellow Academy trainees; Semk's genetic modification is then stripped from her by Glorith. Following the events of Flashpoint, Chemical Kid and other Academy students become full members of the Legion, as replacements for Legion members believed deceased.

Powers and abilities
Chemical King is a mutant with the power to act as a human catalyst. He can speed up or slow down any chemical reaction; for example, he can cause iron to rapidly rust, or even burst into flames from rapid oxidation. His powers can affect the chemical reactions in the human body, rendering an opponent unconscious from shock, but take several seconds and can only focus on a single opponent at a time. Late in his career, Chemical King displayed the ability to change energy reaction rates as well, causing batteries to lose power and force fields to decay. As the final act before his death, he used his powers to alter and absorb vast amounts of radiation capable of paralyzing Superboy.

Equipment
As a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes, he is provided a Legion Flight Ring. It allows him to fly and protects him from the vacuum of space and other dangerous environments.

In other media

 * Chemical King makes a cameo appearance in the Legion of Super Heroes (2006) two-part series finale "Dark Victory".
 * Chemical King appears in Legion of Super-Heroes (2023), voiced by Eric Lopez. This version is a council member of the Legion Academy.

Medical Reserve Corps

The Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) is a network in the U.S. of community-based units initiated and established by local organizations aimed at meeting the public health needs of their communities. It is sponsored by the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response (ASPR) of the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The MRC consists of medical and non-medical volunteers who contribute to local health initiatives, such as activities meeting the Surgeon General's priorities for public health, and supplement existing response capabilities in times of emergency. The MRC provides the structure necessary to pre-identify, credential, train, and activate medical and public health volunteers.

The Medical Reserve Corps Program (MRC PO) is the national "clearinghouse for information and guidance to help communities establish, implement, and sustain MRC units nationwide."

As of January 2020, there are 839 local MRC units and 175,283 volunteers. MRC units are present in all 50 U.S. states, Washington, D.C., Guam, Palau, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

History
Following the September 11th attacks in 2001, President George W. Bush called for the establishment of the USA Freedom Corps, a "Coordinating Council... working to strengthen our culture of service and help find opportunities for every American to start volunteering". The Freedom Corps was to have three components: responding to crisis, rebuilding communities, and sharing compassion with the world. The Medical Reserve Corps was created as an extension of the Freedom Corps. As of 2017, there are 957 active MRC units.

Affiliations
The MRC is a partner program of Citizen Corps, a national network of volunteers dedicated to ensuring hometown security. Citizen Corps, along with the Corporation for National and Community Service and the Peace Corps, are part of the President's USA Freedom Corps.

The MRC PO also has a cooperative agreement with the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO). This agreement enables NACCHO to assist the ASPR's Medical Reserve Corps Program Office in enhancing MRC units' ability to meet local, state, and national needs through collaboration, coordination, and capacity-building activities. These activities include:

 * Coordinating the distribution of grant funding
 * Developing a national marketing strategy
 * Publishing a quarterly national newsletter
 * Assisting in the planning of regional and national meetings
 * Developing materials, resources, and tools to strengthen the knowledge and skills of MRC members

In addition, NACCHO's relationship with almost 3,000 local health departments further serves as an avenue to promote the MRC program at the local level.

Local and national organization
Locally, each MRC unit is led by an MRC Unit Director and/or Coordinator, who matches community needs with volunteer capabilities. Local MRC leaders are also responsible for building partnerships, ensuring the sustainability of the local unit, and managing resources. Partnerships typically include local public health and emergency response agencies, community businesses, and neighboring MRC's. Local MRC units are typically housed under Health Departments or other local governmental organizations.

Nationally, the MRC is guided by the Medical Reserve Corps Program Office, housed in the HHS ASPR Office of Emergency Management. The MRC Program Office serves as a clearinghouse for information and best practices to help communities establish, implement, and maintain MRC units nationwide. It is authorized by the Public Health Service Act, Sec. 2813 42 U.S.C. 300hh-15, and its budget has been $6 million per year, reduced to $3.9 million in FY 2020 and FY 2021. It sponsors an annual leadership conference, hosts a Web site, and coordinates with local, state, regional, and national organizations and agencies to help communities' preparedness. There are also Regional Coordinators (RCs) in all ten of the Department of Health and Human Services regions.

Many states have appointed State MRC Coordinators to help plan, organize and integrate MRC activities within the State. The MRC Program Office staff and the RCs collaborate with the State Coordinators to better integrate with local and state planning and response activities. All local MRC units are encouraged to collaborate with State Coordinators.

Skills and training
Members include doctors, nurses, mental health counselors, health educators, and other medically trained people, as well as people without medical training, including administrators, chaplains, drivers, interpreters, logistics specialists, radio operators, trainers, etc. Members receive free training in emergency response and decide how many hours they are willing to volunteer each year.

Local chapters can verify credentials to be ready for emergencies, or use the Emergency System for Advanced Registration of Volunteer Health Professionals. Liability insurance varies by state.

Local activities
Members do activities and training on their own time, which may be outside working hours, or time off work arranged with their employer. Activities include, but are not limited to:

 * Supporting local public health while also advancing the priorities of the U.S. Surgeon General; which are to promote disease prevention, improve health literacy, eliminate health disparities, and enhance public health preparedness
 * Emergency Sheltering
 * Disaster Medical Support and Mass-Casualty Incidents
 * Assisting local hospitals, clinics, and health departments with surge personnel needs
 * Participating in mass prophylaxis and vaccination exercises and community disaster drills
 * Training with local emergency response partners
 * Providing first aid services for fundraising and other events

Chopping of FairMormon mention
I chopped this line, but it was reverted by GSwarthout.

FairMormon, a Mormon apologist site, details various rebuttals and explanations for the differences.[50][51]

The reason for reverting was given as: "Presenting both sides is an admirable goal and reasons given for removal are not convincing." Firstly, "presenting both sides" is indeed an admirable goal but this is not wikipedia policy. "Both sides" are only mentioned if both sides conform to WP:RS and WP:NOTABLE and do not violate WP:UNDUE. Googling FairMormon every hits it from the FairMormon organisation itself. To be considered a reliable source, we generally need 3rd parties that mention it. Please provide some evidence that this is a reliable source.

But my main problem with the text is that is says nothing. We can assume that apologists for every religion will disagree with people to say there cosmology is false. For this text to be encyclopediac, first we need to ensure it is a reliable source. If it is, we need to detail some of their rebutalls and explanations in the article, not just say that they exist. Ashmoo (talk) 10:49, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

 * See WP:GHITS
 * Try something that filters out hits on the orgs own websites (fairmormon.org and fairlds.org), something like this: https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=-site:fairmormon.org+-site:fairlds.org+FairMormon
 * FairMormon is notable enough to have a WP article.
 * Thanks-- 155.95.90.245 (talk) 21:59, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Thanks for addressing my concerns. But I'm not questioning the notability of this article but the reliability of this source. I admit the 'google hits' thing should count as an argument. I just used it as a general illustration. If you have evidence that this is a reliable source, please provide it. (Wikipedia itself can't be used as source according to its own rules).
 * But even we prove it is a reliable source, my second problem should also be addressed. Ashmoo (talk) 14:09, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
 * This page is clearly either made by anti-mormons or complete idiots.
 * So many simple things just convoluted and stupefied.
 * A Person using symbolism, doesn't equate to what is used being the actual thing symbolised.
 * The term planet originally meant a body in the heavens(space). Stars have always been called planets or planetars even since I was a kid 40+ years ago.
 * Kid should have tried looking for the actual roots of the word, instead of some new age google definition.
 * By the way I am not a member of that church, but I do have some family who are, and are good honest people.
 * I am sure if they somehow got offended, it wouldn't be out of disagreement or dislike, but purely the wishy-washy, poorly written, misrepresentation of their religion.
 * As for me. I find it offensive purely because it is these kind of convoluted nonsensical lies that get people asking me if members of my family in that church worship aliens or other weird crap which even most 2 years olds wouldn't be dumb enough to ask.
 * Guess they have to have no idea, because they think that if they read 1 passage from a book it is enough to magically brainwash. Just as stupid.
 * Kids too busy getting taught about politics and socialism instead learning common sense and how to research properly. You don't have to agree, you don't have to read their magical brainwashing scriptures, but you don't have to write bullcrap comments either.
 * What a joke. 2001:8003:2056:BC01:E580:2AB:4604:B73 (talk) 14:00, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

Ralph Vaughan Williams and the English hymnal
This mention under "popular culture" is misleading. It gives the impression that VW's work was somehow related to the LDS song, rather than the common folk tune which preexisted the LDS hymn. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.253.32.92 (talk) 23:01, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

== Book of Abraham - translated - when? ==

from the intro : The Book of Abraham is traditionally held by several Latter Day Saint denominations as having been translated from an Egyptian papyrus scroll by Joseph Smith.

translated when? do Mormons have a whole nother story about the provenance of the text? Does Joseph Smith travel through time? I just want to be able ensure that the intro of this article is clear about other known facts about the origin of the book of Abraham & make it clear if Mormons have a different version of that text, or think the text only dates back to the mid 19th century, or what the deal is.

Obo Addy

Obo Addy (January 15, 1936 – September 13, 2012) was a Ghanaian drummer and dancer who was one of the first native African musicians to bring the fusion of traditional folk music and Western pop music known as worldbeat to Europe and then to the Pacific Northwest of the United States in the late 1970s. He taught music at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon.

Biography
Addy was born into the Ga ethnic group in Accra, the capital city of Ghana. He was one of the 55 children of Jacob Kpani Addy, a wonche or medicine man who integrated rhythmic music into healing and other rituals. Obo Addy's earliest musical influence was the traditional music of the Ga people, but he was also influenced as an adolescent by popular music from Europe and the United States, and performed in local bands that played Westernized music and the dance music of Ghana known as highlife. The Kronos Quartet commissioned a string quartet from Addy for their 1992 album Pieces of Africa.

Addy was employed by the Arts Council of Ghana in 1969, and played his native Ga traditional music in the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, Germany. He moved to London, England, and began touring in Europe. In 1978, he moved to Portland, Oregon in the United States, where he taught at Lewis & Clark College. He also led weekly drumming workshops at Portland's Lincoln High School.

In 1989, he founded the Homowo African Arts and Cultures organization, a non-profit which sponsors the annual Homowo Festival of African Arts in Oregon. The organization was later renamed as the Obo Addy Legacy Project.

After a long battle with liver cancer, Addy died on September 13, 2012.

Awards and honors
He was awarded a Master's Fellowship from the Oregon Arts Commission and Regional Arts & Culture Council, and the Oregon Governors Award for the Arts. In 1996, he became the first native African to win a National Heritage Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts, which is the highest honor in the folk and traditional arts in the United States.

Repairable component

A repairable component is a component of a finished good that can be designated for repair.

Overview
Repairable components tend to be more expensive than non-repairable components (consumables). This is because for items that are inexpensive to procure, it is often more cost-effective not to maintain (repair) them. Repair costs can be expensive, including costs for the labor for the removal the broken or worn out part (described as unserviceable), cost of replacement with a working (serviceable) from inventory, and also the cost of the actual repair, including possible shipping costs to a repair vendor.

At maintenance facilities, such as might be found at Main Operating Bases, inventory is controlled by site personnel. Maintenance personnel will formally "turn-in" unserviceable items for repair, receiving a funding credit in the process. These "turn-ins" will be fixed, reconditioned, or replaced. Maintenance personnel can also be issued repaired or new items back from inventory. These processes are assisted by automated logistics management systems.

In the Navy/Marine Corps supply system repairable items are identified with certain two character cognizance symbols (COGs) and one character Material Control Codes (MCCs).

In United States Marine Corps Aviation, repairables are managed by the Repairables Management Division of the Aviation Supply Department.

In the United States Air Force, repairables can be identified by their ERRC designation or SMR code.

Talk:Holographic memory

Well, there it goes. . . . The idea I had in 1982 to multiplex holographic storage in a transparent crystal matrix, has now been verified; now engineering work proceeds. Also in 1982, I mentioned that 'one day' I'd see this realized, and in likelihood---since I probably would not be working with any R&D teams or think tanks---I'd one day be one of those fellows who "knew the Mayor." Yet, things like 3-D holographic storage are not amenable to kitchen table prototypes. (Thanks for listening.) What is quite remarkable are the 3-4 schemes now for multi-plexing, including ones for rewriting. Ways of embedding multiplexed layers inside a transparent matrix had always seemed the engineering obstacle that must be overcome; of course, corruption from neighboring embedded layers is still not a cleanly solved issue. Collaboration or conversation anyone? --Paul K. sac89148@saclink.csus.edu

The scoutmaster let us keep whichever ones we were interested in, and I always took a lot of the PC Worlds, PC Magazines, Compute!s, Computer Shoppers, etc. The point of this is, I distinctly remember reading about crystal holographic storage in one of these magazines, and always wondered what happened to the idea or why it never manifested.

Some text copied from HowStuffWorks?
I'm pretty sure the last few paragraphs of this entry were lifted from the HowStuffWorks article on holographic memory (or else HowStuffWorks lifted it from here). The section I'm referring to starts with "Holographic memory is a technology that uses a three dimensional medium to store data ..." and continues to the end of the main section. It seems to have been introduced in revision 49423106 on 2006-04-21 (anonymous editor from 202.88.234.114). Some of the text occurs in a different order than it appears in the HowStuffWorks article, but it's still word-for-word.

Furthermore, the added content adds little to the article and does not integrate smoothly into the flow. I'm a little hesitant to just blow it away because I'm a WikiNewbie and not really confident enough to do something like that. Please advise on how I should have handled this!

The Fumble

In American football, The Fumble is a play that occurred during the 1987 AFC Championship Game between the Cleveland Browns and Denver Broncos on January 17, 1988, at Mile High Stadium in Denver, Colorado. The fumble occurred late in the fourth quarter of the game and cost the Browns a chance to tie the contest; the Broncos went on to win the game and the AFC Championship, advancing to Super Bowl XXII.

Background
One year earlier, the Browns and Broncos faced off for the conference championship at Cleveland Municipal Stadium. Broncos quarterback John Elway led a game-tying, 98-yard touchdown drive that became known as simply The Drive, which sent the game into overtime where the Broncos won.

For this matchup, things were not initially as close. The Broncos scored two early touchdowns on a pass from Elway to Ricky Nattiel and a run by Steve Sewell. They added a run by Gene Lang in the second quarter, while all the Browns were able to do was produce a field goal by Matt Bahr.

The second half, though, was a different story for the Browns. Trailing 21-3 entering the third quarter, quarterback Bernie Kosar and his star halfback Earnest Byner helped lead the Browns back. Kosar threw a third quarter touchdown to Reggie Langhorne, and after the Broncos added a touchdown, Byner added two of his own via a pass from Kosar and a run. A Rich Karlis field goal closed the scoring in the third quarter, and the Broncos’ lead was reduced to seven.

Kosar led another touchdown drive in the fourth quarter that culminated with Webster Slaughter catching a four-yard pass to tie the game at 31. After Elway responded by finding Sammy Winder for a touchdown to regain the lead, the Browns again began moving the ball down the field. They managed, once again, to cross the fifty-yard line and drive deep into Denver territory.

The play
On second down at the Denver eight-yard line, with the Browns needing five yards for a first down, Kosar handed the ball off to Byner on a trap play. With the running lane he intended to use overrun with Broncos defenders, Byner turned and headed left and found space. He had the first down and saw a chance to score the tying touchdown. The only two defenders between him and the end zone were Broncos defensive backs Jeremiah Castille and Tony Lilly. As Castille closed the gap to meet Byner, Byner instead of continuing to veer left straightened his run to avoid running directly into Castille. Although Castille did not stop Byner's progress and bring him to the ground, Castille managed to knock the football out of Byner's hands at the three-yard line. Byner's momentum carried him forward into the end zone and colliding with Lilly. Castille recovered the fumble at the three-yard line, giving the Broncos possession of the ball and preserving the seven-point edge.

Aftermath
The Broncos ran three plays to gain a total of nine yards while forcing the Browns to use their remaining time outs. On the ensuing fourth down, Broncos coach Dan Reeves had his punter, Mike Horan, take an intentional safety rather than punt out of his own end zone; Horan did as he was told and ran around in the end zone for five seconds for good measure.

After the ensuing free kick, the Browns were thwarted on their last drive, when a Kosar Hail Mary pass came up short; the Broncos won, 38–33, and moved on to the Super Bowl.

Reactions
On ESPN Classic's "The Fumble, the Story of the 1987 AFC Championship", the Browns' then-head coach Marty Schottenheimer analyzed the play, showing that the fumble was not entirely Byner's fault. Schottenheimer stated: "The Browns' wide receiver #84, Webster Slaughter is supposed to take ten steps then block Castille to the outside. Instead, he wanted to watch the play."

Castille said: "I was thinking, 'I got burned the last time I tried to bump-and-run [Slaughter]', so instead I stepped back six-to-eight yards before the snap, so I could better see the play unfold. I saw it was a draw play and that Byner had the ball. I remember thinking that Byner ran all over us that entire second half, so there was no way I was going to tackle him. Instead, I went for the ball the whole time."

Schottenheimer continued: "Earnest never saw Castille coming. Earnest was the reason we were still in the game at that point. He had several heroic runs and catches over the course of the second half that allowed us to have a chance to tie the game at 38. All of these heroics, unfortunately, were overshadowed by a single draw play from the eight-yard line."

Dick Enberg, the play-by-play announcer of the broadcast on NBC, noted: "And wasn't it ironic that Denver got the ball back on the two-yard line? Wasn't it just one year ago where the Broncos were on their own two before putting together what became 'The Drive'?"

ESPN.com Page 2 writer Bill Simmons used "The Fumble" as an argument for why the Browns should be considered one of the most cursed franchises in sports. He also describes their fan base as "tortured" following this play. His article, "The Levels of Losing," appeared January 29, 2010.

Aftermath
Despite being primarily remembered for "The Fumble", Byner had a successful career. After spending another year with the Browns, he was traded to the Washington Redskins prior to the start of the 1989 season for running back Mike Oliphant. In his five seasons with Washington, Byner was selected to play in the Pro Bowl twice (1990, 1991) and won a Super Bowl in the 1991 season. In that season's Super Bowl XXVI, he caught a touchdown pass in the second quarter, and the Redskins won, giving him the NFL Championship ring he could not win with the Browns.

He ended up going back to Cleveland for two more years, and finished his career in 1998, after spending two years with the transplanted Baltimore Ravens. In his 14 NFL seasons, Byner rushed for 8,261 yards, caught 512 passes for 4,605 yards, and scored 72 total touchdowns (56 rushing, 15 receiving, one fumble recovery). At the time of his retirement, Byner ranked within the NFL's top 30 all-time leaders in rushing attempts, rushing touchdowns, rushing yards, and total yards.
