Claude Hulbert

Claude Noel Hulbert (25 December 1900 – 23 January 1964) was a mid-20th century English stage, radio and cinema comic actor.

Early life
Claude Hulbert was born in Fulham in West London on Christmas Day 1900. He was the younger brother of Jack Hulbert. Like his brother he received his formal education at Westminster School and Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, where he was a member of the Footlights Comedy Club as an undergraduate.

Career
He began his professional career on the English stage. His first theatrical credit was in the revue His Little Trip in the Strand Theatre in 1920. The next year he appeared in the London revue Fantasia. In 1924, he was quite successful in the George Grossmith-Guy Bolton musical comedy Primrose, which led to a string of musical comedy roles for him from 1925 to the 1930s, including Sunny, Oh Kay, Song of the Sea and Follow a Star. Hulbert also was a hit on radio, thanks to his spontaneous manner of delivery, along with his nervous excitability and a stutter. In 1939, he returned to the London stage in the farce, Worth a Million. Subsequently, he was seen in Cole Porter's Panama Hattie (1943). In the 1950s, he appeared in numerous farces and in repertory theatre. In 1959, he made quite a splash as Lord Plynne in Frederick Lonsdale's Let Them Eat Cake

Although popular, his motion picture career was less successful than his brother's. He began by supporting the Aldwych farceurs before being handed his first lead in a weak B-film with Renee Houston and Binnie Barnes, Their Night Out (1933). His most successful solo film of the mid-1930s was Hello Sweetheart (1935); like most of Hulbert's starring comedies, however, its ambition was strictly small-scale; it seemed that British studios simply didn't see him as a major star. His flagging career was helped with Wolf's Clothing (1936), which starred him as a dithering diplomat, and Honeymoon-Merry-Go-Round (1940), where he played a bumbling bridegroom who unintentionally becomes an ice-hockey star.

He became a very capable partner for Will Hay after the comedian decided he wanted to do without his famous "stooges", Moore Marriott and Graham Moffatt. Hay's two films with Hulbert, The Ghost of St Michael's (1941) and My Learned Friend (1943), were the most successful of his later vehicles. Hulbert's film appearances, though, became scarcer as the 1940s wore on.

In 1951 Hulbert starred in audio recording of the play The Ghost Train, which was commercially released by Decca Records (Release Catalogue No.LK4040). In 1952 he starred in the West End in the title role in  Lord Arthur Savile's Crime, directed by his brother Jack.

Personal life
He was married to the actress Enid Trevor.

Death
Hulbert died on 23 January 1964 aged 63 in a hospital at Sydney, Australia, after having been taken ill whilst ashore during a round-the-world health cruise with his family.

Talk:Passport Canada

[Untitled]

 * To my untrained eye, it looks like this article needs a cleanup. The factual information, so far as I know, is correct, but the presentation's rather disjointed.  Perhaps sections on history, respectibility, security features, and recent news? Majromax 19:38, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * If you want to do that, knock yourself out. --Spinboy 20:07, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * Wow, nice work as-is. I plead lack of sleep for a reason to not edit now, but just the sectioning made an impressive visual improvement to the page. --Majromax 22:08, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

 * I don't have a link for the Kamel decision yet, it's only been released in French so far. Will have to update again soon.Rumplefurskin (talk) 14:21, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Proposed merge

 * Proposed to merge Canadian Passport Order into this page. Seems unlikely that one will be viewed without the other, as they dovetail into each other. There's already significant overlap (this page duplicates everything of substance in Canadian Passport Order). I came to update news concerning the passport order, and frankly it's a pain to have to do so twice in two articles. Also, although both this page and Canadian Passport Order discuss the same events, the information is presented in a slightly discrepant manner. I think it would be more efficient to just discuss the Order as one subsection of the larger article on Passport Canada, and this would ensure that there are no discrepancies between two overlapping articles about the Order.Rumplefurskin (talk) 14:05, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose. While there may be overlap, they're two very different things. GreenJoe 14:16, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Obviously they are different things. One is the order creating the agency and the other is the actual agency. However, the only relevance of the order is that it creates and sets the bounds for the agency. There's no unique information in the Canadian Passport Order page. I think a redirect to this page would be superior.Rumplefurskin (talk) 14:21, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * In the alternative, barring merger, I plan to copy holus-bolus the text from one page to the other, at least to maintain consistency and ease of editing.Rumplefurskin (talk) 14:30, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * In the further alternative, I just realized that there is a separate Canadian Passport page. There's an awful lot of overlap between all three of these pages, particularly regarding the source of passports in the royal prerogative and the on-again, off-again ability to refuse a passport on national security grounds. Some kind of consolidation would seem to be an improvement. Perhaps Canadian Passport Order would be more at home merged with Canadian Passport? Rumplefurskin (talk) 14:58, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Making both pages look the same defeats the purpose of having different articles. They really all do deserve their own articles, because they're all about different things. But I suppose if you had to do some merging, you could merge the order to the bottom of this article, and the the article on the Canadian Passport alone. GreenJoe 20:15, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * The change works well enough for me, however I would prefer to keep the first issue discussed under this article as relating to the National Security" as a whole as opposed to just Khadr. Khadr has his own article. He's only relevant here inasmuch as his story affects the history and powers under the Order. There's clearly a broader story here, with the more recent removal of the national security ground by the court in the Kamel case. Rumplefurskin (talk) 20:32, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Further reflection leads me to believe that we need to carefully parse the subject matter that is apporopriate under this page and under Canadian Passport. Part of the problem of discussing the national security/khadr issue is that it doesn't actually have anything to do with the Passport Canada agency - they are not involved in these decisions. The same is true also of some of the other issues listed in this page, such as the length of passport validity. These are issues relating to the passport itself, not the Agency. I think this page should in fact have most of its text moved over to Canadian Passport. What should remain is a description of the agency, issues relevant to the agency itself (such as the Auditor General's report) and a discussion of the Passport Order to the extent that it establishes the Agency.

 * 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. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: No consensus. Winged Blades Godric 10:34, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

Passport Canada → Canadian Passport Order – As Passport Canada is now defunct and the current article is almost 50-50 about the Canadian Passport Order, which remains in force as an Order-in-Council, it would be more effective under that title. Minimal reorganization would be required and no information would be lost. RA 0808 talkcontribs 20:34, 19 November 2017 (UTC) --Relisting. Mahveotm (talk) 11:23, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Lennon–McCartney

Analysis
Some info about their composition style would be nice. There's some stuff about it in the main Beatles article under "Musical style and evolution", and I'm sure there's more to gather. T3RT3L (talk) 17:16, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

Contributions
A Day in the Life" is the only later Beatles song that includes substantial contributions by both Lennon and McCartney

What about "I've got a feeling" from let it be? There are plenty examples of songs after Pepper where they each made substantial contributions. For example, on "Obla-Di-Obla-Da" it was Lennon who came up with the piano tune, without which the song would have lacked its chatchyness and, judging from early demos, would probably not appered on the white album--Crestville 19:39, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Input from other members
Quote"lennon-mccartney was used for songs without contributions from george or ringo" not nesseceraly true-what about elenor rigby,a hard days nights,etc? and surely george and ringo had at least some input on EVERY beatles song
 * It does say "written by"; the types of contributions you refer to would generally be in the area of arrangement. Jgm 22:39, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Non Beatles
The article makes no mention of songs written by Lennon-McCartney for other artists. jnestorius(talk) 01:52, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
 * You're correct. Feel free to mention them. Some notable artists in that category include Cilla Black and Peter & Gordon. —Gordon P. Hemsley→ ✉ 07:11, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Another is the Rolling Stones. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.162.155.94 (talk) 14:56, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Stub
This article should have much more information, after all John and Paul are the songwriters for the most well known group in the world

DK08 September 17 9:32

Article name
Shouldn't this article be named "Lennon/McCartney"? That's how I'm used to seeing it. --kingboyk 21:16, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Perhaps—I'm not familiar with the subject to comment really. However, the article suggests that the name was written on albums as "Lennon—McCartney". Theshibboleth 00:11, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

I never noticed it before but now that I look, yes, it is usually Lennon/McCartney. 4/27/06
 * Somebody changed it to Lennon/McCartney so I've moved the page to match. --kingboyk 12:05, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Shouldn't this article be titled "McCartney/Lennon"? That's how I usually think of the two. Paul was clearly the more visionary and did the majority of the writing of the melodies. -- CmdrMarmot 11 March 2011

Proposed change
I propose moving this page to (1)John Lennon and Paul McCartney or (2)Lennon and McCartney.

The current: neither represent what is said or have any other useful meaning!
 * "Lennon/McCartney" (Lennon divided by McCartney?, Lennon over McCartney), or
 * "Lennon-McCartney" (Lennon minus McCartney?, Lennon to McCartney?, Lennon &mdash ; McCartney?)

Therefore I propose adopting the same approach as Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller or Abbott and Costello. However to avoid unnecessarily long wikilinks; most pages can adopt either
 * "[Lennon & McCartney]" (with a redirect) or the
 * "[John Lennon and Paul McCartney|Lennon & McCartney]" (piped) approach.

simonthebold 18:02, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

All in favour raise your hand and say aye(1) or aye(2)!

 * I'm in favour of keeping it the same. If you check any of the Beatles studio albums they are credited to "Lennon/McCartney" and this is, after all, an article about the songwriting partnership on Lennon/McCartney rather than a biograpy of the two. Now perhaps they intended that to read "Lennon divided by McCartney" - it's possible I suppose, they were on a lot of drugs - but I propose the were using the dash as an instrument of punctuation rather than a mathamatical symbol. By the same token, "Lennon-McCartney" probably means Lennon "hyphen" McCartney, punctuation rather than a mathamatical symbol. Probably gives it away when there's no numbers in the equasion, though I suppose the "o" in Lennon could be a zero.--Crestville 18:21, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * My point is that this article is  about the songwriting partnership not the form of typesetting choosen by some faceless EMI employee in 1963. If were going to be pathetic and pedantic we should also have a 'McCartney/Lennnon' article and 'McCartney-Lennon' article etc. etc. for the miriad of variations published around the world since 1962???  or maybe not.
 * I agree that in the grand scheme of things this is a fairly irrelevant issue, however I think the / (slash) looks ugly!! and that "and" cannot be misinterpreted! simonthebold 18:35, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * It's iconic and recognisable. I can see no good reason to change it. And no reason to be so touchy, mate. Removing all the vowels from the word "dickhead" is still pretty damn rude.--Crestville 19:46, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

 * On all my LP:s (and most CD:s) the song are credited Lennon-McCartney, not Lennon/McCartney. Also sv-wikipedia calls it Lennon-McCartney. It seems like Lennon/McCartney was not inveted as a name until later. 137.163.16.30 (talk) 09:04, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

The working partnership
The Everly Brothers were certainly the inspiration for the Beatles' harmony and musical sound and a great influence on them, but they did not write their own songs - so it didn't make a lot of sense to me to lead with the Everlys in a paragraph about Lennon/McCartney as a songwriting team. (And it didn't really flow properly) I suppose the point being made is that the Everlys' (and Holly) sound influenced L/McC to write songs that sounded like the ones that they sang? So I rearranged the section - see if it makes sense. Feel free to edit, of course.

I also added that Forthlin Road was Macca's home - this may be obvious to British fans, but it would not be known to Americans, so I thought the clarification couldn;t hurt. Tvoz 06:43, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Two of us
This section is too abbreviated - I'd expand it myself but I don't remember the details of the film. Is it focused on the two of them as a writing pair? because that's what this article is about - not about their personal relationship. I didn't remove it, but if the film is not largely about their writing collaboration, I'd say it is misplaced in this article, or the paragraph needs to be written a bit differently. Tvoz 06:43, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

A joint credit
It would seem better to say the only "known" substantial disagreement about authorship - we don't know what other disagreements they may have hashed out privately. And, in the end of the first sentence I took out "which are included here" because I couldn't figure out what it meant - if it should be in, it needs to be clarified. Tvoz 06:43, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Controversy
As I noted on Talk: Wings Over America, there's a discrepancy between what is said on that page and what is said on this page regarding who complained about Macca's reversal of credits on that 1976 album - here it says nothing about Yoko, and only that John did not complain as he didn't really give a damn at that moment in time; but on Wings Over America  it says that John did not make any comment, but that Yoko did - about that 1976 reversal. I don't know if she did, but if so, the graf in this article needs to be amended. Or that one.

Also unclear to me if the graf about Yoko's 1997 move of giving Lennon solo credit for Give Peace a Chance (which by the way, sounds perfectly right to me, but no one asked me my opinion) is in the right place - did this happen before, during, or after Macca made his "late 1990s" request about changing Yesterday to McCartney/Lennon? Tvoz 06:43, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

in general
I think this piece is good, but could be further expanded, at least by additional references - it's depending on 2 books now, and I would think there are other sources, and probably more to say about this writing team. Tvoz 06:43, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Post-Beatles Relationship
I feel that Wikipedia ignores John and Paul's relationship after the break-up, but I don't think the subject has enough substance to warrant an article about it. I imagine it would consist of Paul's lawsuit, his switching the songwriting credit order to "McCartney/Lennon" on the Wings Over America album, John's concession that their choice of a manager was wrong, A Toot and a Snore in '74, and finally the oft-mentioned instance when Paul showed up at John's house with a guitar and John, being too busy for reminiscing, sent him away. I'm probably missing something, so I hesitate to add it to the article, but I really think that this is an important aspect of both men's careers.

Why
Why isn't there a similar page for the Lennon-Ono partnership? 216.165.96.57 03:53, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Because as a team, Lennon/McCartney were two of the most popular and most accomplished songwriters, musicians, and performers of the last 50+ years, whereas Lennon/Ono weren't? John Cardinal 04:38, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Removed bit on McCartney solo compositions
Irrelevant to the article. The article is about songs credited to the Lennon/McCartney partnership. Vidor (talk) 22:14, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Something about the change in the order of names
When the band first started it was credited McCartney Lennon but Brian Epstein changed this as he thought Lennon McCartney sounded better. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.162.155.94 (talk) 14:59, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Michael Jackson owning publishing rights
Should it be mentioned that the Lennon/McCartney publishing rights are owned by Michael Jackson? It seems fairly appropriate. 90.21.254.204 (talk) 17:08, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
 * That might get a little messy. I don't think he owns all of their songs, so it could be misleading to say that he owns Lennon/McCartney publishing rights. In any event, if anything is added it needs a source. Ward3001 (talk) 18:44, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

 * "Sony Corp. paid Michael Jackson $95 million in 1995 to merge ATV with Sony and form Sony/ATV Music Publishing, a 50-50 joint venture, so it's probably more correct to say that Jackson now owns half the rights to the Beatles catalog."snopes.com. Some question the reliability of snopes as a source; nonetheless, it raises questions about stating that Jackson owns Lennon/McCartney publishing rights. Ward3001 (talk) 19:24, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Some information is at The Beatles. --Jerome Potts (talk) 08:32, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Legality
Is this legal? I would seem to me that this agreement should be illegal as claiming copyright on a work that one of them did not write could extend copyright based on years after death to when that last supposed author died and not when the only real author. Can someone claim there 1 month old baby was a co-author for this purpose? Zginder 2008-08-30T22:34Z (UTC)
 * People can assign ownership as they please, but this discussion is really not appropriate here. Talk pages are supposed to be for improving the article, not general discussion of the topic. See WP:TALK. Ward3001 (talk) 22:53, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

"In My Life"
If McCartney's quote in the section "A Joint Credit" is correctly stated, then he was mistaken about the origin of "In My Life". It could not have been part-based on "Tears Of A Clown" which was written in 1967 - two years after "In My Life". Probably McCartney was mixing it up with "Tracks of my Tears", also by Smokey Robinson and released in 1965, before "In My Life" was written. Maybe the quote should be qualified or explained, as it can't be accurate. 217.43.81.99 (talk) 09:30, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Reading the quote in Many Years From Now, McCartney was not as specific as the "A joint credit" section indicates. I do think he was confused about the specific Smokey Robinson/Miracles songs that were influences. He said, "I went down to the half-landing, where John had a Mellotron, and I sat there and put together a tune based in my mind on Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. Songs like 'You Really Got a Hold on Me' amd 'Tears of a Clown' had really been a big influence. You refer back to something you've loved and try and take the spirit of that and write something new." My suggestion is to use McCartney's actual words there so that we avoid an editor's interpretation of them. It's probably a good idea to mention that "Tears of a Clown" was released a few years after "In My Life". It's possible McCartney meant "Tracks of My Tears", but unless there is a source for that, then it's original research and shouldn't be added. (I say that even though I think it's likely he did confuse the two songs.) — John Cardinal (talk) 13:06, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Lennon/McCartney → The Songwriting Partnership of John Lennon and Paul McCartney — - The official name is The Songwriting Partnership of John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Do I need anymore reasoning? -- Krazycev   13  other crap 19:20, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Oppose - The common name of this partnership is Lennon/McCartney as the article is named now. No one refers to the partnership by the name you proposed. Furthermore, it's unlikely that anyone searching WP for information about the partnership would ever search for it by that name. You say that the "official name" is the one you proposed, but what is your evidence? — John Cardinal (talk) 21:35, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose Yes, you do. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:37, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Requester confuses the first nounal phrase in the opening sentence with an "official name" of the article, which it is not. See WP:LEDE, which makes this more clear.  Should Charlotte Corday be renamed to Marie-Anne Charlotte de Corday d'Armont?  Should John Lennon and Paul McCartney be renamed to John Winston Ono Lennon and Sir James Paul McCartney (currently redirects), respectively?  No, that way lies madness.  TJRC (talk) 01:46, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose - This is handled by Wikipedia categories. The article is in Category:Songwriting teams where you will find, for example Holland–Dozier–Holland, Gilbert and Sullivan, Jagger/Richards and Stock Aitken Waterman rather than The Songwriting Partnership of Mike Stock, Matt Aitken and Pete Waterman etc. Similarly in Category:Aircraft you will find Nikitin NV-4, BOK-2 and NIAI LEM-3 rather than The Nikitin NV-4 aircraft etc. PL290 (talk) 05:05, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Lennon/McCartney (or J.Lennon/P.McCartney) is the official credit for the tandem; extending it beyond that seems a bit confusing and not very necessary... Doc9871 (talk) 05:56, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Do I need any more reasoning? Yes. See WP:Official names. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 19:48, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Come and Get It
"Come and Get It" was not credited Lennon/McCartney on official releases. Check out the label of the single: http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?release=815826

Badfinger's releases (as well as the Anthology 3) credit it solely to McCartney.

-- ChrisB (talk) 17:53, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

 * Sorry... Thought it was. I'll remove it. — John Cardinal (talk) 21:07, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Cool! Thanks! -- ChrisB (talk) 04:28, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

Section deleted
I deleted the section on Beatles songs not written by Lennon/McCartney, on the grounds that the information is not relevant to this article, which is about the Lennon/McCartney songwriting partnership and joint credit. The only way I can see that information all together on one page is if there were some kind of article about "The songs of the Beatles" or whatnot, one which discussed all the songwriting credits for all the songs--John and Paul, Harrison's two songs an album, Ringo's rare contributions, various cover songs appearing on official Beatles releases, etc. I see this section has been a focus of dispute between Doc9871 and Wrapped in Grey. While I very much appreciate the work Doc1971 has put in on another article we've both been involved with I have to say that WiG is correct here. Vidor (talk) 19:33, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Joint credit date
Edited the article to clarify matters regarding when Lennon and McCartney agreed to credit everything they wrote jointly. The article stated that "the pair wrote songs together from 1958 to 1969", and implied that they agreed to credit everything jointly when they were teenagers, but "Cry For a Shadow" was credited to Lennon and Harrison in June 1961. Is there an authoritative source stating specifically when John and Paul agreed on a joint credit? Vidor (talk) 23:22, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Lennon himself in an interview with David Sheff (available online) said: "Paul and I made a deal when we were 15. There was never a legal deal between us, just a deal we made when we decided to write together that we put both our names on it, no matter what."
 * They were not 15 at the same time; Lennon would have turned 15 in 1955, McCartney in 1957. I guess he just means in Quarrymen days. (Incidentally, this is semi-quoted in the article, but states Lennon saying "15 or 16". This "or 16" is not in the transcript I have seen.) 86.182.192.78 (talk) 22:06, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Copyright violation: File:Lennon&mccartney.png
An admin has determined that File:Lennon&mccartney.png appears to be a copyvio of a photograph by Linda McCartney, and has nominated it for deletion.

Give Peace a Chance
Given that this song was published whilst the partnership was still active (with Abbey Road still to follow), the fact that it was credited (as was McCartney's "Goodbye" a few months before) to Lennon–McCartney does not require any particular justification. Hence remove the two statements (Lennon's & MacDonald's) attempting to justify this? In any case, neither statement gives any useful insight into the matter in hand, i.e. why, how, or indeed if, the credit was changed in the '90s (without permission from the credited parties?). The GPAC article also has no secondary sources noting or discussing the credit change. Uniplex (talk) 20:20, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Removed per the above: no source for primary fact; secondary facts moot. Uniplex (talk) 11:31, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

Dissolution
Lennon/McCartney was officially dissolved at the Polynesian Resort in Walt Disney World, Florida. The exact location is not known as May Pang (Lennon's girlfriend and assistant at the time) cannot recall it. Julian Lennon was also present and cannot recall the exact location.

From May Pang's memoirs:

"John, Julian and I left New York the following day to spend Christmas in Florida. On December 29, 1974, the voluminous documents were brought down to John in Florida by one of Apple's lawyers. "Take out your camera," he joked to me. Then he called Harold to go over some final points. When John hung up the phone, he looked wistfully out the window. I could almost see him replaying the entire Beatles experience in his mind. He finally picked up his pen and, in the unlikely backdrop of the Polynesian Village Hotel at Disney World, ended the greatest rock 'n' roll band in history by simply scrawling John Lennon at the bottom of the page."

 * This is a noteworthy (and much reprinted) account for sure, but it doesn't belong in this article's lede. It describes the dissolution of The Beatles, not the songwriting partnership of Lennon–McCartney. Certainly that partnership ended at that same time, but nothing in the source article tells us anything specifically about it – it does not say that the "Lennon–McCartney was officially dissolved", and indeed the words ""Lennon–McCartney" and "songwriting" do not appear even once. It's a wonderfully written paragraph, and it could work nicely in The Beatles, John Lennon, May Pang, Apple Records, even Disney's Polynesian Resort. But there is already plenty to say here about the songwriting partnership. SteveStrummer (talk) 01:52, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

'Joint Credit' Section
This is an important article so I don't feel comfortable just changing it, but there does seem to be a problem in the 'Joint Credit' Section. It states that: "Help!" has been universally recognized as solely a Lennon-penned composition. However, Paul McCartney claims to have helped on the "countermelody", estimating the song as "70–30" to Lennon.[23][24][25] During an interview with Playboy in 1984, McCartney stated that "John and I wrote it at his house in Weybridge for the film".[25] There are a couple of problems with this: 1. There is no reference to back up the claim that the song has been universally recognised as solely a Lennon composition. For such a far reaching statement there should definitely be a reference I think? 2. Even if it is universally recognised, that is completely irrelevant because the list is supposed to show the five instances where Lennon and McCartney disagree, not the instances where the universe disagrees with McCartney? There needs to be a link which shows that Lennon stated he wrote the song alone, but there isn't one even on the Wiki page for the song itself. That isn't to say that it doesn't exist, but surely it needs to be provided for this statement to remain in the article as is? 3. Putting all else aside, clearly if McCartney says he wrote some of the song, and some people must surely believe him, then the song isn't universally recognised as being written by Lennon alone??? FillsHerTease (talk) 04:28, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

"Other Credits" Section
I will cite liner notes after each song to verify writers. I will also re-word the first sentence because I can not find information stating that Lennon and McCartney were, indeed, the "primary" writers. I'm assuming that was an assumption by the editor. Though true it may be, I have not found the information to support the claim. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bgreco9 (talk • contribs) 14:54, 1 August 2016 (UTC) After doing that, I will remove the warning banner , if we are all cool with that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bgreco9 (talk • contribs) 14:56, 1 August 2016 (UTC)

Removing Warning Banner at the top
I think that the article is close to not needing the banner, what else could/should be done to get it removed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bgreco9 (talk • contribs) 14:57, 1 August 2016 (UTC)

"or McCartney–Lennon"
The first words of the article are "Lennon--McCartney (or McCartney--Lennon)". Why is this there? The songwriting credits *always* say Lennon--McCartney, and this caption is where the phenomenon stems from. In fact, Paul McCartney has tried to switch the names around for the song *Yesterday*, but was turned down by late John Lennon's wife.

Can this be explained or be removed? Arno Sluismans (talk) 10:43, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

 * The "Please Please Me" LP and single, and the "From Me to You" single showed the writing credit as "McCartney–Lennon". Agreed, this bit of minutiae doesn't belong in the lead sentence where it could be interpreted as being another commonly used name for the subject, which it is not. Piriczki (talk) 12:59, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

The 1963 Twist and Shout EP (GEP 8882) also had two songs credited to McCartney-Lennon (Do you want to know a secret / There's a place). Tengilorg (talk) 09:53, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Lennon–McCartney
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Lennon–McCartney's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Fontenot/About": From Every Little Thing (Beatles song):  From Ticket to Ride:

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 12:01, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

Step Inside Love
The page for "Step Inside Love" says it's by Lennon-McCartney, but here it's listed as Lennon-McCartney-Harrison-Starkey. One or the other should probably be changed. 47.152.252.100 (talk) 20:08, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
 * This is a reference to the improvised "Los Paranois" on Anthology 3 which is a medley with "Step Inside Love." I've made that clear. Thanks. P-K3 (talk) 23:29, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

Lennon's Solo Releases
The article states that "Give Peace A Chance" was Lennon's third solo release, and therefore the fact it was still a joint credit is unusual, but this was in fact his first solo release, made even before Abbey Road (I think pointing this out as a weirdness being wrong is done above).

Akhil Reed Amar

Akhil Reed Amar (born September 6, 1958) is an American legal scholar known for his expertise in constitutional law. He holds the position of Sterling Professor of Law and Political Science at Yale University, where he is a leading scholar of originalism, the U.S. Bill of Rights, and criminal procedure.

Raised in California, Amar was an undergraduate in Yale College before receiving his legal education at Yale Law School. He clerked for Judge (later Justice) Stephen Breyer then became a professor at Yale Law School at the age of 26. He is one of the most frequently-cited legal scholars by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Amar has been active in the American Bar Association and the Federalist Society, with his work receiving awards from both organizations. In 2008, a Legal Affairs poll placed him among the top 20 contemporary American legal thinkers. According to a 2021 study by Fred R. Shapiro, Amar is the 18th most-cited legal scholar of all-time.

Early life and education
Amar was born on September 6, 1958, in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He has two brothers, one of whom is Vikram Amar, who is also a legal scholar and was the dean of the University of Illinois College of Law. His parents were medical students from India who met as students at the University of Michigan. His father became a professor at the University of California, San Francisco.

Amar grew up in Walnut Creek, California, and graduated from Las Lomas High School in 1976. He then attended Yale University, where he double majored in history and economics. As a student, he was a member of the Yale Debate Association, winning its Thacher Memorial Prize, and was a chair of the Yale Political Union. He befriended future journalist Richard Brookhiser in his first year in college, and graduated as a resident of Ezra Stiles College.

In 1980, Amar graduated from Yale with a Bachelor of Arts, summa cum laude, with membership in Phi Beta Kappa. He had developed a serious interest in history studying under professors Edmund Morgan and John Morton Blum, and chose to stay at the university instead of returning to California as he originally planned.

In 1981, Amar entered Yale Law School, where he became an editor of the Yale Law Journal. His teachers included Charles Black, Bruce Ackerman, Owen Fiss, Guido Calabresi, and Burke Marshall. In 1984, Amar obtained his Juris Doctor degree. He was a law clerk for Judge Stephen Breyer of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit from 1984 to 1985. He then interviewed for a clerkship with Justice John Paul Stevens but did not receive an offer.

Academic career
Amar joined the faculty of Yale Law School in 1985 as an assistant professor, then became an associate professor in 1988 and a full professor in 1990. From 1993 to 2008, he was the law school's Southmayd Professor of Law. He received the school's appointment as a Sterling Professor of Law in 2008. Amar's former students include four U.S. senators—Cory Booker, Michael Bennet, Chris Coons, and Josh Hawley—and government officials Jake Sullivan and Neal Katyal. Justice Brett Kavanaugh was also a student of Amar.

He is the author of publications and books, including The Words That Made Us: America's Constitutional Conversation, 1760-1840. Justices across the spectrum on the Supreme Court have cited his work in more than four dozen cases—the most among living non-emeritus scholars. In surveys of judicial citations and/or scholarly citations, he typically ranks among America’s five most-cited mid-career legal scholars.

He was elected a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2007. In 2008, U.S. presidential candidate Mike Gravel said that he would name Amar to the Supreme Court if elected president.

Amar, a self-described liberal, has since engaged in advocacy considered controversial among progressive outlets, bloggers, and professors. He argued in favor of Brett Kavanaugh's appointment to the Supreme Court and argued that overturning Roe v. Wade would not affect other privacy rights.

Since early 2021 he has co-hosted a weekly podcast, Amarica’s Constitution] with fellow Yale alumnus, Andy Lipka. Guests have included Bob Woodward, Floyd Abrams, and Gary Hart.

Personal life
Amar and his wife, Vinita Parkash, married in 1989. He has three children: Vikram, Kara, and Sara. He is politically a pro-choice Democrat.

Toledo Yacht Club

The Toledo Yacht Club is a private yacht club in Bay View Park, in Toledo, Ohio, located on the Maumee River, at the western end of Lake Erie.

History
The Toledo Yacht Club is among the oldest yacht clubs in North America. The Toledo Yacht Club was founded in 1865 with the name of Toledo Boat Club when two rowing clubs, the Undines and the Naiads, joined together and turned their attention to sailing.

The Toledo Yacht Club was incorporated on October 3, 1885. In 1904, the club readopted the name Toledo Yacht Club.

Clubhouse
The first club house was erected in 1878 on Gard Island near the mouth of the Ottawa River.

In 1890, a more elaborate structure with sleeping rooms and a second floor was built.

In 1896, a rival club, the Ohio Yacht Club, unsuccessfully attempted to take over the Toledo Yacht Club's Gard Island lease. Later that year, the two clubs merged under the name Toledo Yachting Association, maintaining city quarters in the Neptune Building in Toledo, Ohio.

When Bay View Park was developed, a 25-year lease was granted to the Toledo Yachting Association, and a wood frame club house was erected at the present site of the club in 1903.

In 1906, a fire completely destroyed the club and all of its historic contents. By 1908, a new steel reinforced concrete Spanish style clubhouse was built on the site. This historic building still remains basically the same and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 12, 1976.

Organization
The Toledo Yacht Club is a member owned corporation. It consists of a membership body, a Board of Trustees, and a Bridge of Officers who are elected individually. The Bridge Officers also serve as Trustees on the Board.

Officers
The Toledo Yacht Club is led by its chief executive, the Commodore. Next are the Vice Commodore and Rear Commodore. The club has a Financial Secretary, Treasurer, and Recording Secretary. These officers are collectively known as the Bridge. The previous year's Commodore serves as the Fleet Commander and Trustee, and there are five additional Trustees on the Board.

Additional titles of Fleet Surgeon and Historian are assigned by the Commodore, however, they are not members of the board of trustees.

The title Past Commodore is given to members who have served in the office of Commodore. Past Commodores are eligible for membership in the International Order of the Blue Gavel.

A. L. Smith was named the first Commodore in 1865. A full succession list of Toledo Yacht Club Commodores and their respective years of service will be added at a later date.

Membership
Membership in the Toledo Yacht Club is divided into several classes, defined by the club Constitution and By-Laws. (details to follow)

Events
Some of the events hosted by the Toledo Yacht Club include:
 * Back To The Bay
 * Mills Trophy Race
 * Commodore's Ball
 * Various Cruises

Affiliations
The Toledo Yacht Club is affiliated with the following organizations:

Yachting and Boating

 * Associated Yacht Clubs, (AYC)
 * Detroit Regional Yacht-racing Association [formerly the Detroit River Yachting Association] (DRYA)
 * Inter-Lake Yachting Association (I-LYA)

 * United States Power Squadrons, District 29, Toledo Power Squadron, USPS, Sail and Power Boating
 * US Sailing
 * Western Lake Erie Cruiser Association

Business

Hauntings
The Toledo Yacht Club was featured as a haunted case on the paranormal series Ghost Hunters on the August 24, 2016 season 11 episode "Children in the Attic". TAPS investigated with their client, and clubs & events manager Susan Hurst and her 11-year-old son, Hunter Spioch who made contact with "Jacob", a 10-year-old boy spirit who he claims told him he fell off the ballroom balcony because he was leaning on the railing. He fell off, landing on the hardwood floor, cracked his head and died in 1910. It is said that Jacob is seen on the balcony along with and his parents haunting the place.

Please do not renumber all the presidents. You have no consensus to do this.-gadfium 19:40, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Please do not continue renumbering the Presidents. The way Presidental numbering is universally done is what we must show in Wikipedia. We do not redefine such things by our own logic, no matter how reasonable it might seem. -- Cecropia | explains it all ® 19:41, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Please stop renumbering the Presidents
As others have said many times before, it's not up to us to decide how to number the Presidents of the United States. Presidential numbering conventions are widely accepted norms that prevent conflicts like "Is Bush the 42nd or 43rd President?" from occurring. Here at Wikipedia, we don't try to change things like that. What if, say, an editor came along and decided the George W. Bush article should be titled "George Bush, Jr."? That kind of change wouldn't fly, because 99.99% of the world has agreed on George W. Bush as his name. Same with the ordering of the Presidents. If you don't like the way the Presidents are numbered, talk to the Library of Congress. If they, or the history profession in general, think you have a valid complaint, they'll change the ordering of the Presidents. THEN we can reflect that in our content. Wikipedia reports on the facts of the world; it doesn't introduce new ideas. For more information, see No original research.

Milwaukee Mile

The Milwaukee Mile is a 1.015 mi oval race track in the central United States, located on the grounds of the Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis, Wisconsin, a suburb west of Milwaukee. Its grandstand and bleachers seats approximately 37,000 spectators. Opened in 1903 as a dirt track, it was paved in 1954. In addition to the oval, there is a 1.8 mi road circuit located in the infield.

As the oldest operating motor speedway in the world, the Milwaukee Mile has hosted at least one auto race every year from 1903 to 2023 (except during U.S. involvement in World War II). The track has held events sanctioned by major bodies, such as the AAA, USAC, NASCAR, CART/CCWS, and the IndyCar Series. There have also been many races in regional series such as ARTGO.

Famous racers who have won at the track include: Barney Oldfield, Ralph DePalma, Rex Mays, Ted Horn, Johnny Mantz, Norm Nelson, Rodger Ward, Marshall Teague, Frank Mundy, Don White, Parnelli Jones, Paul Goldsmith, A. J. Foyt, Gordon Johncock, Mario Andretti, Al Unser, Jim Clark, Alan Kulwicki, Rick Mears, Tom Sneva, Michael Andretti, Nigel Mansell, Juan Pablo Montoya, Dario Franchitti, Kurt Busch, and Tony Kanaan.

On December 16, 2009, Wisconsin State Fair Park officials confirmed that the Milwaukee Mile would not host any NASCAR or IndyCar races in 2010. NASCAR confirmed that their June Nationwide Series date would remain in Wisconsin for 2010, as they announced they would hold a race at Road America for the first time since the Grand National Series raced there in 1956. NASCAR also announced on January 20, 2010, that the Milwaukee date for the truck series would be moved to August. The track hosted two ASA Late Model Series races in 2010.

IndyCar returned to the track in 2011, but the Mile was left off of the preliminary 2012 schedule after a poorly attended 2011 event that resulted in part from an inexperienced promoter. In February 2012, it was announced that IndyCar would return to the Mile on the weekend of June 15–16. The event was promoted by Andretti Sports Marketing, owned by former Indy driver Michael Andretti, and was billed as the Milwaukee IndyFest. The event included open-wheel racing featuring the IndyCar Series and the Firestone Indy Lights, as well as a driver question period and autograph sessions, music and other attractions. The series again left after the 2015 season when Andretti Sports Marketing went out of business. The track hosted no major professional races until ARCA returned in 2021.

Dirt track history
The track was a 1 mi private horse racing track by 1876. In 1891, the site was purchased by the Agricultural Society of the State of Wisconsin to create a permanent site for the Wisconsin State Fair (which it still is).

The first motorsports event was held on September 11, 1903. William Jones of Chicago won a five lap speed contest, and set the first track record with a 72-second, 50 mi/h lap. There were 24-hour endurance races in 1907 and 1908. Louis Disbrow won the first 100 mi event in 1915, averaging 62.5 mi/h.

Barney Oldfield's success at the Mile helped make him a legend. He set the track record in 1905 and raised his speed in 1910 to 70.159 mi/h in his "Blitzen Benz". In 1911, Ralph DePalma won the first Milwaukee Mile Championship car race, four years before his Indianapolis 500 win. Oldfield drove a gold car built by Harry Miller that completely enclosed the driver (called the "Golden Submarine"), and in June 1917, he beat DePalma in a series of 10 to 25 mi match races.

The July 17, 1933, race was rained out. Wilbur Shaw and the other drivers convinced the track promoters to run the race the following day and the term "rain date" was born.

Huge new grandstands were installed in the 1930s, with seating for 14,900 people. They replaced the original grandstands that had been built in 1914. A roof was placed over the grandstands in 1938. These grandstands stood until new aluminum grandstands were installed in September 2002.

The 1939 race was the first AAA Championship race.

The 1937 non-championship AAA event was best known for running 96 laps (instead of 100) due to a scoring error. It was won by Rex Mays, who continued his domination throughout the 1940s by winning in 1941 and the next race (after World War II) in 1946.

The tradition of hosting the "race after the Indianapolis 500" began in 1947. This tradition was famously referenced in the 1969 movie Winning where Robert Wagner's character delivered the line "Everybody goes to Milwaukee after Indianapolis".

The Milwaukee Mile held more national championship midget, stock, and Indy car races than any other track in the country between 1947 and 1980.

Open wheel
In 1954, the 1 mi track was paved, and an infield road course was created. The 1/4 mile dirt infield track was kept for weekly programs during the 1950s and 1960s.

In 1963, Jim Clark won the first victory for a rear-engined Indy Car in his Lotus-Ford.

In 1964, A. J. Foyt dominated in what was to be his penultimate race in a roadster. The rear-engine began dominating races in the 1960s, replacing the front-engine roadster, but not before one unexpected race. In 1965. A. J. Foyt had to tow his front-engine backup dirt car from Springfield because his primary car and crew would not make it to Milwaukee in time for qualifying. He prepared the car himself for pavement, and put the car on the pole with a speed of 107.881 mi/h. He led for 16 of 200 laps, and finished second.

In 1965. Gordon Johncock scored his first career Indy Car win at the Milwaukee Mile.

The track was repaved before the 1967 season. By 1967. both the 1/4 dirt track and 1/2 mile road course were closed to accommodate the pit area. Lloyd Ruby swept both USAC races held at Milwaukee in 1968, giving him three wins at the Mile including his first win there in 1961. The June 1968 Rex Mays 150 was a tragic affair as a three-car crash and ensuing inferno killed Ronnie Duman.

In the 1983 CART race, Tom Sneva finished first by 10 seconds. Post race inspection found an improper ground clearance on the side mount skirts, so second-place finisher Al Unser was given the win. On appeal, the decision was overturned, and Sneva was awarded the win two weeks later. Sneva would repeat the win one year later in a new 200 mile race.

The last sports car race was held on the infield road course on June 16, 1984. The track had deteriorated. It was repaved before October 2004. The course still hosts club road races sanctioned by the Midwestern Council of Sports Car Clubs.

In the 1985 CART event, Mario Andretti won the pole on his way to his fourth career track win. His son Michael won the next two races in 1986 and 1987. Milwaukee was also the site of Mario Andretti's first ever paved oval track win in Indy Car racing in 1966.

Al Unser Jr. won the 1990 CART race after Michael Andretti ran out of fuel with two laps to go. The victory was Unser Jr's first IndyCar win on an oval and was the ninth for the Unser family (father Al Unser Sr. and uncle Bobby Unser each have four).

The 1991 CART event, however, was dominated by their archrival Andretti family. For the first time in the worldwide history of auto racing, three member of the same family finished 1–2–3. Michael Andretti won the race, second went to his cousin John, and third to his father Mario. Michael's brother Jeff finished 11th.

Milwaukee was in danger of losing its CART date in 1992. To save the date, the fair board hired Carl Haas to organize all track activities.

The 1992 CART event was again won by Michael Andretti. In 1993, reigning Formula One champion Nigel Mansell got his first oval track win on his way to winning the CART championship. In 2000, Juan Pablo Montoya gave Toyota its first CART win. History was made again when in 2004 Ryan Hunter-Reay led all of 250 laps to the victory. The final Champ Car race was held in 2006, with eventual champion Sébastien Bourdais winning.

The Indy Racing League IndyCar Series came to the Mile in 2004. Dario Franchitti won the inaugural event. His team, Andretti Autosport has won three races at the Mile with Tony Kanaan winning in 2006 and 2007. The other races have been won by Penske Racing drivers Sam Hornish Jr. in 2005, Ryan Briscoe in 2008, and Chip Ganassi Racing driver Scott Dixon in 2009. After a one-year absence from Milwaukee, Franchitti won in the series' return to the track in 2011, for Ganassi. After promoter conflicts in late 2015, it was announced that the series would not return for the following season. After an eight-year hiatus, the IndyCar Series is scheduled to return for a doubleheader in 2024.

AAA/USAC sanction
The Milwaukee Mile was for decades the site of the most important races on the AAA, and later USAC, stock car racing calendar. The first AAA race was held on July 9, 1950, and was won by local racer Myron Fohr. After the AAA ended competition in 1955, following seasons were sanctioned by USAC. Don White, the all-time winner in AAA/USAC Stock Car history, holds the most victories in stock car competition at the Mile with 14.

NASCAR sanction

NASCAR held two Busch Series stock car races at Milwaukee in 1984 and 1985. The 1984 field was full of NASCAR Winston Cup drivers: Alan Kulwicki (2nd), Dick Trickle (3rd), Bobby Allison (4th), Davey Allison (5th), Dale Jarrett (6th), and Darrell Waltrip (25th). The 1984 race was won by Sam Ard.

On July 3, 1993, the NASCAR Busch Series returned to Milwaukee. The event was won by Steve Grissom. In 1996 Wisconsin native Dick Trickle was passed with four laps to go by Buckshot Jones, who nosed out Mike McLaughlin and won the race from the furthest starting spot (32nd) and by the closest margin of victory in NASCAR Xfinity Series history (.002 seconds). The Busch Series ran every year from 1993 to 2009. Five drivers who won the NASCAR Busch race at Milwaukee went on to win the Busch Series championship in the same year (Steve Grissom in 1993, Randy LaJoie in 1997, Dale Earnhardt Jr. in 1998, Jeff Green in 2000, and Greg Biffle in 2002). Biffle became the first repeat winner when he scored back-to-back victories in 2001 and 2002. Despite Trickle having come the closest previously, two NASCAR Busch Series races have been won by Wisconsin natives (Johnny Sauter/Necedah in 2005 and Paul Menard/Eau Claire in 2006). Menard also became the third driver to make the race at Milwaukee his first career series win, joining Jones in 1996 and Casey Atwood in 1999.

The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series (CTS) began racing at Milwaukee in its inaugural season in 1995. Mike Skinner won the event. The 1996 event featured 17 lead changes. The CTS has returned every season since 1995. Ted Musgrave became the only repeat winner when he followed up victory in 2001 with a second triumph in 2004, both behind the wheel of the No. 1 Mopar Performance Parts Dodge for Jim Smith and Ultra Motorsports. Musgrave is also the only Wisconsin native to have won the race. Two drivers have the distinction of having won both a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race and a NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Milwaukee. Ron Hornaday won in the truck race in 1996 and the Busch race in 2004, while Greg Biffle won the truck race in 1999 and the Busch race in 2001 and 2002.

The track was resurfaced after the 1995 season. In 2003, temporary Musco lights were brought in for the Champ Car World Series event. The temporary lights were also used for the CTS and Busch Series events in 2005 and 2006.

The following is a map of Milwaukee Mile:

Lap records
As of August 2023, the fastest official race lap records of the Milwaukee Mile are listed as:

Track length of paved oval
The track length is disputed by the three major series that run at the Milwaukee Mile. The NASCAR timing and scoring used a length of 1.00 mi. The IRL timing and scoring used a length of 1.015 mi. CART used a length of 1.032 mi between 1997 and 2006. For the Truck race in 2023, NASCAR also uses the 1.015 mile length.

NFL stadium in the middle of the quarter-mile oval
The infield of the quarter-mile dirt infield track at the Mile near the current media center was also the location of a football stadium, informally known as the Dairy Bowl. It hosted the NFL's Green Bay Packers from 1934 through 1951, including the NFL championship game in 1939, a 27–0 shutout of the New York Giants on December 10 to secure a fifth league title.

In 1940 and 1941, the Dairy Bowl also served as the home of the Milwaukee Chiefs of the third American Football League. The 50-yard line sat where the start-finish line is currently located. The city's own entry in the NFL, the Milwaukee Badgers, lasted just five seasons, from 1922 to 1926, and played at Athletic Park, renamed Borchert Field in 1928.

User:IRON^HAND

Welcome to Wikipedia!!

About your addition to Wolverine...

In order to avoid flame wars over his strength and agility level we have decided to only describe his obvious powers and leave qualities such as strength and agility as ambigious.

However, you are correct in that his agility level is supposed to be beyond the human range. His agility in in the "enhanced" range. Nightcrawler and Spiderman would be in the truly Superhuman range.

However, everytime anyone tries to put down accurate stats for Wolverine someone comes in quoting an outdated Marvel Universe and starts the mother of all flame wars so we have decided to leave the entry essentially the way it is. Any improvements will likely be in illiteration, diction, and grammarical correction..

But don't be deterred from contributing here on Wikipedia!!!

Jenaro Pérez Villaamil

Jenaro Pérez de Villaamil y d'Huguet (3 February 1807 – 5 June 1854) was a Spanish painter in the Romantic style who specialized in landscapes with figures and architectural scenes. He often inflated the scale of the buildings relative to the figures to make them more impressive.

Biography
He was born in Ferrol, Galicia. In 1812, he was enrolled at the military academy in Santiago de Compostela, where he assisted his father, who was a professor there. He went to Madrid in 1820 to study at the "Reales Estudios de San Isidro" (now part of the Colegio Imperial de Madrid). Three years later, he went to Cádiz to enlist in the army fighting the "Hundred Thousand Sons of Saint Louis" sent by the Duke of Angoulême. He was wounded and briefly held as a prisoner of war. Afterwards, he remained there to study at the "Escuela de Bellas Artes".

In 1830, he went to San Juan, Puerto Rico, with his brother Juan (died 1863), who was also a painter, where they decorated the Teatro Tapia and remained there for a few more years, working as scenographers. Upon his return to Spain in 1833, he made the acquaintance of the Scottish painter David Roberts, who had a decisive influence on his style. He settled in Madrid in 1834 and became a member of the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando the following year. In 1840, he was named honorary court painter to Queen Isabella II. During the regime of Baldomero Espartero, from 1840 to 1844, he left his wife and young child and lived in self-imposed exile in France and Belgium, using artistic affairs as an excuse for his absence. After travelling through Europe, he returned in 1845 and obtained the chair of landscape painting at the Academia, where he later became the director.

He returned to Galicia for an extended stay in 1849 and made extensive travels throughout Spain until 1852, when he began to suffer from liver disease. He died in Madrid two years later, aged only forty-seven.

Lassie (1954 TV series)

Lassie is an American television series that follows the adventures of a female Rough Collie dog named Lassie and her companions, both human and animal. The show was the creation of producer Robert Maxwell and animal trainer Rudd Weatherwax and was televised from September 12, 1954, to March 25, 1973. The eighth longest-running scripted American primetime television series (after The Simpsons, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Gunsmoke, Law & Order, Family Guy, NCIS, and American Dad!), the show ran for 17 seasons on CBS before entering first-run syndication for its final two seasons. Initially filmed in black and white, the show transitioned to color in 1965.

Narration
Wrather's wife, Bonita Granville Wrather, who was the series' associate producer, narrated numerous episodes throughout the run of the series, usually the beginning and/or ending of multi-part episodes.

Writers
Many early episodes were written by Robert Maxwell under the pseudonym Claire Kennedy. In later years, the writing partnership of Robert Schaefer and Eric Freiwald was responsible for over 150 episodes. They were also responsible for developing the idea of having Lassie with a forest ranger.

Theme music
Lassie used several pieces of theme music during its long broadcast history. For the first season, "Secret of the Silent Hills (Theme from the Lassie TV series)", is used for both the opening and ending theme. Composed by William Lava, the orchestral theme was originally created for the 1940 radio show The Courageous Dr. Christian.

For the second and third season a variation of this theme, titled simply "Lassie Main & End Title", was used for the opening and ending theme. Raoul Kraushaar, the music director for the series, is the listed composer for the theme; however the changes he made to the original are so slight that only a trained ear can tell the difference. The third theme used for the series is an orchestral rendition of the aria, "Dio Possente" (Even Bravest Hearts May Swell) from Charles Gounod's opera, Faust. The exact time this theme started being used is uncertain due to conflicting records; however it is agreed that it was the third series, and was used for at least part of season four for the change of ownership of Lassie.

The most famous of the Lassie theme songs appeared at the start of the fifth season. Copyrighted as "Lassie Main & End Title", the composer credit has never been definitively claimed to this day. The melody is whistled by Muzzy Marcellino. Nicknamed "The Whistler," it remained the series theme for the rest of the "Martin years". With the coming of the "Ranger years", the opening and ending theme was changed to an orchestral version of "The Whistler". Beginning in season 17 (where Lassie traveled alone), and continuing throughout the Holden Ranch era, the theme was changed again, this time to Nathan Scott's arrangement of the traditional folk tune Greensleeves, which became the series theme song for the rest of its run. For the final two seasons, the familiar closing visual of Lassie standing on a hill and lifting her paw, was replaced by the credits on a green background, and flashing from one slate to the other instead of scrolling as in most of the series run. Television composer Nathan Scott scored the music to nearly every episode between 1963 and 1973, except for four episodes.

Plot and themes
The first 10 seasons of the series saw Lassie living on a farm, first with the Miller family (Jeff, his mother Ellen, and her father George - who was called "Gramps" by Jeff). Season 4 saw the Millers taking in young orphan Timmy, who then lived with them on the farm, as well as the unexpected death of Gramps, (reflecting the real life death of actor George Cleveland, who played the character), and with that the Millers moved off the farm, but Timmy and Lassie would stay behind with his new foster parents, Paul and Ruth Martin, who also took over the farm. All 10 of the Miller/Martin farm seasons would for the most part focus on "boy and his dog" adventures with Jeff or Timmy getting involved in some sort of trouble, and Lassie eventually coming to the rescue.

Seasons 11–16 were the "Ranger years" of the series, as Lassie (because she was not able to go to Australia with the Martins when Paul got a job teaching agriculture there) was taken in by U.S. Forest Ranger Corey Stuart (who appeared in a few episodes of season 10) and began to work with the U.S. Forest Service. Color filming was exploited during the Ranger years with Lassie and her friends sent to exotic locations such as Sequoia National Forest and Monument Valley, creating miniature travelogues for viewers. Other rangers would be featured during the latter part of this era when Robert Bray (who played Stuart) left the series.

For season 17, the program shifted gears again and became essentially an anthology series, with Lassie traveling on her own, getting into different adventures each week (similar in format to The Littlest Hobo and, later, to Here's Boomer). No explanation was given as to why Lassie was no longer with the Forest Service. Some episodes during this final CBS season were animals only.

During seasons 18 and 19 (with the series having moved to first run syndication), Lassie was taken in by Garth Holden (played by Ron Hayes) who was in charge of the Holden Ranch – a home for orphaned boys – which he ran with his college-age son and his friend. This (somewhat) brought the show back to its roots by giving Lassie a farm/ranch home base, which is where she settled in for the final two years of the series.

Broadcast history
First-run Lassie was televised September 12, 1954 to March 24, 1973 with its first 17 seasons airing on CBS Sundays at 7:00 p.m. EST. In 1971, in order to promote community-related programming among local affiliates, the Federal Communications Commission moved primetime Sundays to 8:00 P.M. EST with the institution of the Prime Time Access Rule. CBS executives felt Lassie would not be well received in a time slot other than its traditional 7:00 p.m. slot, and, with the network's other family programs set, the show was canceled. (Lassie was among several shows that CBS canceled during this time period as part of a change in its target demographics.) Lassie then entered first-run syndication with Jack Wrather and Campbell's Soup still on board, and remained on the air for another two years with its final episode airing in March 1973. All totaled, 591 episodes were produced.

An animated reworking, Lassie's Rescue Rangers, followed in fall 1973, immediately after the original series ended (the pilot movie aired in 1972 while the live-action series was still on the air). Lassie's Rescue Rangers was denounced by both Weatherwax and the National Association of Broadcasters, the latter of which made note of the animated series' "violence, crime and stupidity."

Later series
In 1973, ABC created an animated Saturday-morning animated program called Lassie's Rescue Rangers produced by Filmation.

In 1989, what was essentially a sequel series, The New Lassie – featuring Jon Provost as Steve McCullough – aired in first-run syndication. In its seventh episode ("Roots"), June Lockhart reprised her Ruth Martin role when Steve McCullough is revealed to be the adult Timmy Martin. It is revealed that Timmy was never properly adopted by the Martins and consequently was forced to remain in the U.S. when Ruth and Paul emigrated to Australia. Timmy was then subsequently adopted by the McCullough family and began going by his middle name Steven. In 1992, Tommy Rettig made a guest appearance in the final episode, "The Computer Study". This would be his last television appearance prior to his death in 1996.

In 1997, a modified remake – also called Lassie – debuted, airing in the U.S. on the then new Animal Planet cable network. This show (which was filmed in Canada and set in Vermont) also revolved around a boy named Timmy and his dog, though differences in setting and character circumstances precluded it from being an exact remake of the original series.

From 2014-present, a new animated series called Lassie or The New Adventures of Lassie was aired. Lassie lives with the Parker family, 10-year-old red-headed Zoe and her family, Ranger Graham Parker and Dr. Sarah Parker (a veterinarian), in the Grand Mountain National Park. Her best friend is Harvey Smith, whose mother Beth works in the park visitor center. Harvey's late father was a mountain climber. The children's antagonist is a snooty rich girl named Samantha Humphrey. Two seasons were done, the first with traditional drawn animation and the second season with computer-generated animation. The second season (tagged as Season 1) is available on Paramount Plus.

DVD releases
The series was released to DVD between 2001–2007.

Comics
The TV series was adapted into a comic book by Dan Spiegle, distributed by Gold Key Comics.

Ratings
Every year of its 17-year run on CBS, Lassie placed first in its time slot, Sunday 7:00 P.M. EST, and often ranked among the top 25 shows on television. The show's highest ranking years in the Nielsen ratings were the Martin years when the show placed #24 in 1957, #22 in 1958, #15 in 1959, #15 in 1961, #21 in 1962, #13 in 1963, and #17 in 1964. The only Martin year Lassie did not climb into the top twenty-five was 1960, when it ran opposite Walt Disney Presents on ABC and Shirley Temple Theater on NBC. However, Lassie still ran opposite Disney when the Disney anthology television series moved to NBC in 1961, and still managed to climb into the Top 25. With the advent of the Forest Service seasons, the show began a steady decline in ratings.

Awards and honors
(All awards listed given during the time of, or specifically related to the TV series)
 * Two-time Emmy Award winner for Best Children's Program (1955, 1956)
 * 1956 Peabody Award
 * Three stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (Lassie – 1960, June Lockhart – 1960 for television, Jon Provost – 1994)
 * 1967 U.S. Department of Agriculture Conservation Award (awarded to Lassie for promoting conservation during the series' Forest Service era)
 * Timmy Martin's shirt, jeans, and Keds displayed at the Smithsonian Institution

Cultural impact
Jon Provost called his autobiography Timmy's in the Well! because a well was the one place Timmy never fell into—abandoned mine shafts, off cliffs, into rivers, lakes, and quicksand, but never a well.

Mad parodied the show as "Lizzy", where it was revealed that the collie was actually a circus midget in a dog suit, while the real Lizzy was a dimwitted mutt. In an episode of The Flintstones ("Dino Goes Hollyrock"), the character Dino wins an appearance on the smash hit TV show "Sassie" starring a heavily made-up and snobby girl dinosaur and her Lassie-like adventures.

Belgian comics artist Willy Vandersteen created his own version of the TV show with a collie named Bessy in 1954. Apart from the fact that his comic strip starred the same dog breed with a similar name, it had little to do with the series overall, since the comic was a Western comic.

Humphrey Barclay

Humphrey Barclay BEM (born 24 March 1941) is a British comedy executive and producer.

Career
Barclay was educated at Harrow School, before reading Classics at Trinity College, Cambridge, where his first foray into show business was via the Amateur Dramatic Society. He then appeared in Cambridge Footlights revues alongside Tim Brooke-Taylor, Bill Oddie, John Cleese, Graham Chapman, David Hatch, Jonathan Lynn, Jo Kendall and Miriam Margolyes. Barclay was offered a job as a BBC radio producer and soon afterwards put together the team who performed the comedy show I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again (four series starting in 1964). Moving to television, Barclay oversaw Associated-Rediffusion Do Not Adjust Your Set (1967–69).

Following the ITV franchise changes of 1968, Barclay joined London Weekend Television (LWT), for whom he produced the Doctor... series (1969–77). One episode in that series involved a hotel proprietor and his wife and was written by John Cleese. Barclay said at the time that he thought there might be a series in the characters. Later, Cleese created Fawlty Towers for the BBC.

In 1975, he produced the Donald Sinden/Elaine Stritch sit-com Two's Company, which received the "Best Situation Comedy" BAFTA nomination in 1977. Barclay became Head of Comedy at LWT in 1977 and supervised successful series, including No, Honestly and A Fine Romance (1981–84). In May 1980, he unveiled Metal Mickey as a show "with the appeal of Star Wars, the Daleks and Mork and Mindy".

Following criticism at the Edinburgh International Television Festival of what was seen as casual racism in the LWT series Mind Your Language (1977–79; 1986), Barclay commissioned No Problem!, transmitted by Channel 4 during 1983–85, the first original black-made sitcom for British TV (an earlier series featuring a black family, The Fosters (ITV, 1976–77), had been a remake of a US show).

Barclay left LWT in 1983 and formed Humphrey Barclay Productions, which produced the media satire Hot Metal (ITV, 1986–1988), medical sitcom Surgical Spirit (ITV, 1989–95), and sitcom Desmond's (Channel 4, 1989–94) with black characters. In 1996, he returned to LWT as Controller of Comedy and, in 1999, became Head of Comedy Development for Granada Media International.

Though already in partial retirement, in April 2002, he joined Celador Productions as Development Executive.

Inheritance
In 2000, Barclay was adopted into the royal family of Tafo, a village which is a three-hour drive north-west of Accra in the Kwahu region of Ghana, while there to attend the funeral of his friend, the actor Christopher (Gyearbuor) Asante. As a chief of the community, he now bears the title of Nana Kwadwo Ameyaw Gyearbuor Yiadom I, Nkosuohene of Kwahu-Tafo. Barclay is active in helping to raise funds for the community, which has had unemployment levels of more than 80 per cent. He has teamed up with Ikando Volunteers to help provide skilled volunteers to the community. He is in the line of descent of the Barclays of Mather and Urie, a Scottish lairdship.

He is a descendant of David Barclay of Youngsbury (1729–1809), a Quaker banker who famously manumitted all of the slaves he acquired in English Jamaica as the result of a debt. In 2016, through an introduction via Verene Shepherd, the Jamaican historian of diaspora studies, Humphrey Barclay met with a distinguished African American descendant of one of the slaves freed by his ancestor.

A deputy lieutenant of Argyllshire was commissioned by the Lord Lieutenant of Argyllshire. Deputy lieutenants support the work of the lord-lieutenant. There can be several deputy lieutenants at any time, depending on the population of the county.

File folder

A file folder (or simply folder) is a kind of folder that holds papers together for organization and protection. File folders usually consist of a sheet of heavy paper stock or other thin, but stiff, material which is folded in half, and are used to keep paper documents. They are often used in conjunction with a filing cabinet for storage. File folders can easily be purchased at office supplies stores.

File folders are usually labelled based on what is inside them. Folders can be labeled directly on the tab with a pen or pencil. Others write on adhesive labels that are placed on the tabs. There are also electronic label makers that can be used to make the labels.

File folders can be made from plastic or paper. When paper is used, it is preferable that it is made from paper pulp with long cellulose fibre, such as kraft paper or manila paper.

File folders are a core organisational tool of bureaucracy, business administration and scientific management. The medical profession, in particular, make heavy use of file folders for individual patient records, usually collated ready to hand in rows of filing shelves of filing cabinets in alphabetical order, and continues to do so in many practices despite the ongoing migration toward electronic health records. File folders are also prevalent in the filing systems of the legal profession.

Elimination of paper records, and the file folders used to organise these, is a goal of the paperless office. Document imaging through document capture software remains a labour-intensive process for archival materials; archival records often end up boxed in Bankers Boxes packed with file folders in secure storage facilities, with a retrieval time of hours to days.

Terminology
File or folder are other terms used for file folders, but file folders is a common name for the item in the United States. Manila folders are likely the most common, but file folders come in many different forms. In the United States, letter and legal sizes are common.

The exact way to refer to this kind of folder is somewhat unclear. There is no internationally standard term. The term file folder seems to be one that dominates North American language, but does not seem as common in other countries. As stated, some refer to file folders simply as folders, but in North America, this is confusing because folder can refer to several different things. Others use the term manila folders, but this is confusing because not all file folders are made of Manila hemp. This type of folder is sometimes incorrectly referred to as a "vanilla folder."

Another commonly used folder type is the hanging folder, which has hooks on all four corners that slide over a rail. Normally, hanging folders are used to file one or more manila folders, and it is not a common practice to put loose sheets directly into hanging folders. When some documents need to be retrieved, the corresponding manila folder(s) are removed from the hanging folder. The hanging folder itself is left in its place on the rails.

Occasionally, the term for the item changes based on its context. Some may refer to file folders as files when they are being used for storage. For example, one might say, "Would you get me the file on the Patterson case?" Or someone might say, "That information is with the files on the insurance claims." File folder or just folder seems to be how many refer to the item when it is being purchased or not containing any paper yet. For instance, someone might say, "Would you give me an empty folder from the box? I need to make a file on the Thompson estate." Or someone might say, "When you run to the store would you get me some legal size file folders?" Then again, office furniture that holds paper documents is invariable referred to as a Filing cabinet or simply a file cabinet, and never a folder cabinet.

The terms are even more distorted in their digital counterparts. In computing, the word "folder" (or, in some cases, "file folder") is often used as a synonym for "directory", while the word "file" is universally used for actual data items on a disk (sometimes called "documents", especially on the Apple Macintosh). In Unix-like systems, this is resolved to some degree by the creed "everything is a file"; folders are themselves just a special type of file, and many commands (to copy, delete, move, or rename) can be executed without knowing whether the file identifies an entire folder or not.

Tab style/cut
File folders can have tabs in them. Tabs are often helpful when many files are being stored together and there needs to be an easy way to differentiate them. The tabs can be on the top of the folders (common in business offices) or on the end/side (common in medical offices). Tab sizes vary and are designated based on the size of each tab in proportion to the total length of the folder. They can be:

 * Straight cut. There is one long tab.
 * $1/3$ cut. There are three tab positions, each is approximately $1/3$ of the total length of the folder. Essentially, tabs are cut to be in the left, center, or right positions.
 * $1/5$ cut. Similar to the $1/3$ cut, except there are five tab positions, each being $1/5$ of the total length of the folder.
 * $2/5$ cut. There are only two tab positions, the right and the right of center (ROC) positions. ROC is somewhat like a left position, but doesn't extend to the end of the folder because the tabs are only $2/5$ of the total length.
 * $1/2$ cut. There are two tab positions, left and right.

Tab positions
Because tabs can be cut in different positions, the position of the tab can be referred to as well. For instance, for the $1/3$ cut style, folders with tabs in the farthest right position are considered to have a tab in position number three.
