Regarding Steven Leyba
You wrote on my talk page:
 * Jerzy
 * While you clearly have more experience as a wikipedia user than I, I feel it is unfair of you to propose to delete my work based on an assumption on your part that happens to be incorrect. Steven Leyba is a legitimate painter, performance artist, published author, and musician. He is well known in many circles, and for you to say that creating an article about him and his work is akin to "self promotion" is completely unfair and also completely untrue, as I am not him. Perhaps Leyba doesn't interest you on a personal level, but surely you must know that others have differing opinions and tastes than you. Now, on the other hand, if my formatting is incorrect (i.e. not citing sources accurately, etc) then that is another matter. I admit that I am still learning and fine tuning my wikipedia skills, and I am more than willing to rectify any technical mistakes. But to write him off entirely as unworthy of an article, etc, seems unjustified. Furthermore, your harsh manner is confusing and seems wholly unnecessary, in my opinion. --rebecca 07:37, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

_ _ Hi, Rebecca/Undream, and please don't let me leave you as discouraged as you sound, as that was not my intention. For starters, please note that removing the ProD tag i place is something you can do unilaterally. (I think that is usually more effective after adding evidence of notability than before, so that someone doesn't send it to WP:AfD as soon as they see that the ProD has failed without improving the basis of the ProD nomination. But on the other hand, pay attention to the ProD clock, so that it doesn't go past the waiting period by accident.) _ _ I'd also like you to know that sometimes i nominate bios under WP:CSD, and even if i don't delete them unilaterally as i'm permitted to if i'm convinced they qualify, they may disappear in minutes or overnight. Sometimes all i see as needed to be sure they are deletion-worthy is the concurring opinion of one other admin; in this case, i thot instead that it was important to have several days for, hopefully, several or many editors to consider its merits and make improvements in the evidence for notability. ProD may sound like me wanting imminent deletion and being likely to achieve it, but in fact it is unlike either of those, because so much here works through our collaborative editing process: it was my way of recruiting colleagues (including you, i'm pleased to see) to participate in making a decision that i not only am not prepared to make alone, but didn't have a strong opinion on when i tagged it with ProD, and don't expect to look at carefully enough to end up reaching a strong opinion. (It's simply outside my areas of competence and of strong interest, and my stumbling on it, in the course of helping keep the LoPbN index of bios orderly and useful was for me simply occasion to figuratively shout "Hey, could somebody who knows about performance art and in-your-face painting take a look at this?" _ _ I hope you found the comments i left in the article text, next to sentences whose display i suppressed, without pitching them out, in the hope that someone would reword them or offer evidence for their content, and put better information in their place. To the degree that my manner really was harsh, the intent was not to discourage or insult, but to avoid pussyfooting and risking ambiguity about how important it is to establish verifiability of notability of the subject, and how far from those i saw the text that i found as being. And as i said elsewhere on WP, in the last week, regarding a bio whose subject i can't recall, all too often what i call "bombthrowing" by artistic people is evidence of lack of notability that has led them to try jumpstarting their visibility with works or situations that produce more attention via conflict than via artistic quality. That burden is not always fair; Mapplethorpes and Serranos have to suffer thru being mistaken for the guys exhibiting toilet bowls that have the words "No Shit" written inside, and i can't tell which Leyba is. You may be the editor best equipped to tackle the burden of correcting my bad guess, and if you or someone else succeeds, i'll applaud (tho it'll then imply my being wrong. _ _ Do check out at least our editing tutorial and WP:V, and look for relevant Wikiprojects and various resources at Portal:Arts. These are likely to be more helpful in the long run than just my suggestions left in commented-out portion of pages. And tho there are surely others more than i likely to answer efficiently, i'll try to answer further questions you pose for me. --Jerzy•t 09:08, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Archiving your talk page
Deleting past talk, without using an archiving scheme and providing lks to the archives, is frowned upon. In your case, deletion of the talk about deletion of your autobio (and perhaps other matters) makes a particularly bad appearance, in light of your seeking treatment as a non-WP-savvy user after two years and a couple of hundred edits, and the number of AfDs you are currently involved in. --Jerzy•t 19:41 & 19:43, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Steven Leyba facts
Write your articles with REFERENCED FACTS and they might not get deleted. I found this lot in half an hour:

The article needs a list of shows, e.g. at the Museum of Porn in Art, Zurich and the LA show Vaudeville Flesh,(click artists) his books and the video documentary on him,, (the latter shown at the 4th Independent San Francisco Film Festival) performances such as the Spoken Word Festival in Stockholm,, published texts by him and where he is mentioned such as New York Foundation for the Arts' Arts Wire Current.

Don't cite the cached version of links. That's just to make it easy to find the name for the time being. See also useful pages.

File source problem with File:Lakeview.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Lakeview.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

Speedy deletion nomination of Blood Fountains
A tag has been placed on Blood Fountains requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Non-free rationale for File:Satanicbible.gif

Aaron Hill (baseball)

Aaron Walter Hill (born March 21, 1982) is an American former professional baseball second baseman. Hill played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Toronto Blue Jays, Arizona Diamondbacks, Milwaukee Brewers, Boston Red Sox, and San Francisco Giants.

The Blue Jays selected Hill in the first round (13th overall) of the 2003 MLB draft and made his MLB debut with them in 2005. Hill was an All-Star in 2009. He is one of only five players in MLB history to hit for the cycle twice in one season. He won the Silver Slugger Award in both the National League and the American League, the first player to do so in MLB history.

Early life
At age 15, Hill and friends were participating in a soccer tournament in Park City, Utah. While on their way to a round of golf, a college student narrowly missed Hill's car and slammed into his mother's car following behind him. Hill's mother, Vicki, was killed as a result.

College career
Hill was originally drafted by the Anaheim Angels in the seventh round (200th overall) of the 2000 MLB draft. Hill turned down the offer, opting to attend Louisiana State University and play for the varsity Tigers baseball team. While at LSU, Hill posted a career .335 batting average with 23 home runs and 150 RBIs. In 2001, he played collegiate summer baseball with the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape Cod Baseball League, and was named a league all-star and the playoff MVP of Wareham's league championship team.

Toronto Blue Jays
Hill was Toronto's first draft pick (13th overall) in the 2003 MLB draft, and he made his major league debut on May 20, 2005, against the Washington Nationals, after being called up from the minor leagues a day earlier as an injury replacement for Corey Koskie. Hill would finish the game 2-for-4, and he recorded an RBI triple off Nationals pitcher Claudio Vargas for his first career hit as the Blue Jays won, 6–1. Although he was brought up as a shortstop, Hill appeared as a third baseman, a designated hitter, and as a second baseman during the course of the season. He finished the 2005 season with a .274 batting average, .348 OBP, and 25 doubles in 361 at-bats. After the trade of Orlando Hudson to the Arizona Diamondbacks, Hill became the starting second baseman for the Blue Jays in 2006, but was moved back to shortstop mid-season after the demotion of Russ Adams. After experiencing defensive struggles at shortstop, he was then moved back to second base, with John McDonald taking over at shortstop.

On May 29, 2007, in a game at home against the New York Yankees with Andy Pettitte pitching, Hill became only the second player in Blue Jays history to accomplish a "straight steal" of home.

Hill won a Fielding Bible Award at second base for his fielding excellence in 2007.

On April 4, 2008, Hill agreed to a four-year, $12 million deal that included a club option that could have run through the 2014 season. The contract would have been worth as much as $38 million if Toronto kept Hill in the fold for all seven years of the deal.

On May 29, Hill suffered a Grade II concussion in a collision with teammate David Eckstein during a game against the Oakland Athletics. Hill missed the remainder of the season.

Hill returned from his concussion during spring training. On July 5, 2009, Hill was selected by managers and players to take part in the All-Star Game in St. Louis. Hill finished the 2009 season with 37 doubles, 36 home runs, 108 runs batted in, and a batting average of .286 in 158 games. After the season, Hill received the AL Comeback Player of the Year Award. He was voted the Blue Jays Player of the Year. He was also honored with his second Fielding Bible Award.

Prior to the first game of the 2011 season, the Blue Jays announced that they had declined the three option years on Hill's contract. Hill was placed on the 15-day disabled list on April 24, retroactive to April 20, with a strained hamstring.

Arizona Diamondbacks
On August 23, 2011, Hill and John McDonald were traded to the Arizona Diamondbacks in exchange for second baseman Kelly Johnson. Hill hit his first home run as a Diamondback on August 28 against the San Diego Padres, a two-run shot to right field off starter Cory Luebke.

In Game 4 of the 2011 NLDS, Hill hit his first postseason home run. The Diamondbacks would, however, lose the division series to the Milwaukee Brewers in 5 games.

After the 2011 season, the Diamondbacks resigned Hill to a two-year, $11 million contract extension.

On April 7, 2012, Hill, who got moved up in the order to the #2 spot, went 2-for-4 with 3 RBI and two home runs against the Giants in the first and second innings, both off of Madison Bumgarner. This came after going 0-for-4 on Opening Day while hitting eighth. The D-Backs went on to win 5–4.

On June 18, 2012, Hill hit for the cycle against the Seattle Mariners. On June 29, 2012, Hill again hit for the cycle against the Milwaukee Brewers, becoming the first player to hit for the cycle twice in one season since Babe Herman in 1931 for the Brooklyn Robins and the first modern-era player to do so in the same month (John Reilly hit cycles a week apart in 1883).

Milwaukee Brewers
On January 30, 2016, Hill was traded to the Milwaukee Brewers along with Chase Anderson, Isan Diaz, and cash considerations for Jean Segura and Tyler Wagner. On May 7, 2016, Hill had a career day at the plate hitting three home runs and driving in seven runs. His home runs included a game-tying home run in the eighth inning and a go-ahead grand slam in the tenth inning. Hill had only hit three home runs in his previous 82 games at the time.

Boston Red Sox
On July 7, 2016, the Brewers traded Hill to the Boston Red Sox for Aaron Wilkerson and Wendell Rijo.

San Francisco Giants
On February 17, 2017, Hill signed a minor league contract with the San Francisco Giants. Through 80 plate appearances, Hill managed just a .132 batting average with a home run, 7 RBI, and a strikeout to walk ratio of 13/11. He was designated for assignment on June 24, and was released five days later.

Molon labe

Molon labe (μολὼν λαβέ), meaning 'come and take [them]', is a classical expression of defiance. It is among the Laconic phrases reported by Plutarch, attributed to King Leonidas I in reply to the demand by Xerxes I that the Spartans surrender their weapons. The exchange between Leonidas and Xerxes occurs in writing, on the eve of the Battle of Thermopylae (480 BC).

Grammar
The phrase "molṑn labé" is in the Classical Greek of Plutarch, and does not necessarily reflect the Doric dialect that Leonidas would have used. The form ἔμολον is recorded in Doric as the aorist for εἷρπον, "to go, come". The classical pronunciation is, the Modern Greek pronunciation.

The phrase is participial, and the translation would be "when you come, take it!" This use of the participle is known as the circumstantial participle in the grammar of classical Greek, i.e. the participle gives a circumstance (the coming) attendant on the main verb (the taking). It is a form of hypotaxis, where English would use parataxis, the conjunction of two verbs, "come and take". This construction normally (but not always) occurs within narrative literature.

The first word, μολών (molṓn, "having come") is the aorist active participle (masculine, nominative, singular) of the Greek verb βλώσκω (blṓskō, "to come").

The aorist stem is μολ- (the present stem in βλώ- being the regular reflex of μλώ-, from a verbal root reconstructed as *melə-, *mlō-, "to appear" ). The aorist participle is used in cases where an action has been completed, also called the perfective aspect. This is a nuance indicating that the first action (the coming) must precede the second (the taking).

The second word, λαβέ, is the second person singular aorist imperative of λαμβάνω "take; grasp, seize". The entire phrase is thus in the singular, i.e. Leonidas is depicted as addressing Xerxes personally, not the Persian army as a group.

Origin
Plutarch cites the phrase in his Apophthegmata Laconica ("Sayings of Spartans"). The exchange between Leonidas and Xerxes occurs in writing, on the eve of the Battle of Thermopylae (480 BC):

The exchange is cited in a collection of sayings by Leonidas before the Battle of Thermopylae (51.2–15).

The main source for the events of the battle is Herodotus. According to his account, the Spartans held Thermopylae for three days, and although ultimately defeated, they inflicted serious damage on the Persian army. Most importantly, this delayed the Persians' progress to Athens, providing sufficient time for the city's evacuation to the island of Salamis. Though a tactical defeat, Thermopylae served as a strategic and moral victory, inspiring the Greek forces to defeat the Persians at the Battle of Salamis later the same year and the Battle of Plataea one year later.

Greece
Modern use of 'ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ' as a military motto appears to originate in the Kingdom of Greece during the First World War or the Greco-Turkish War. The motto was on the emblem of the I Army Corps of Greece and the Second Infantry Division of Cyprus (1940). The phrase was inscribed on the Thermopylae monument (1955), using an archaic script that would be appropriate for the time of the Persian Wars.

During the Cyprus Emergency between Greek Cypriot insurgents and British troops, Cypriot leader Grigoris Afxentiou on 3 March 1957 became surrounded by British forces outside his secret hideout near the Machairas Monastery near Lazanias, Nicosia. The British troops requested that he surrender his arms, but Afxentiou shouted molon labe in reply. Unable to flush him out and sustaining several casualties, the British forces resorted to pouring gasoline into his hideout and lighting it.

United States

Allusion to the phrase in an English translation ("come and take it!") is recorded in the context of the Revolutionary War, noted in 1778 at Fort Morris in the Province of Georgia, and later in 1835 at the Battle of Gonzales during the Texas Revolution where it became a prevalent slogan.

Use of the original Greek in the United States is more recent. Its use by militia organizations is reported for the 1990s or early 2000s. It is the motto of the Special Operations Command Central (SOCCENT).

In the United States, the original Greek phrase and its English translation are often heard as a defense of the right to keep and bear arms and opposition to gun control legislation.

Note: It seems like my edit at 20:51, 30 May 2005 got merged with another edit the same day due to a DB error or something. I just changed the last papagraph regarding the origin on Gunray's name. -

Looks like it fixed itself, n/m -

What was the official reason given for the Trade federations wanting Naboo?

- As far as I know, they blockaded it in protest of Republic taxation on trade routes. They stood to lose a great deal of power and money if the tax law went through, or something along those lines.

Connection to Ronald Reagan & Newt Gingrich
A passage should be added describing the origin of the name "Nute Gunray". It is highly likely that the choice of the name is meant to be a political statement by George Lucas critical of Ronald Reagan and Newt Gingrich.

Consider that if you switch the syllables, "Gunray" is almost phoenetically identical to "Reagan".

And "Nute" is phoenetically identical to "Newt". (Please note that the movie was produced while Newt Gingrich was the Speaker of the House. By the time the movie was released, Dennis Hastert was the Speaker.)

An editor with a good knowledge of Star Wars and 1990s politics should add an appropriate passage.

The Nute part of it is more than likely a reference to Reagan's movie, "Knute Rockne, All American. I read several years ago that it was in retaliation to this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_Defense_Initiative DeathWeed (talk) 09:55, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Quite persuasive, regarding Gingrich - it's obvious in 1999 everybody familiar with the US political screen would read "Nute Gunray" as a reminiscence of Newt Gingrich which was quite quoutable at the time 188.130.179.3 (talk) 18:01, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

71.168.152.6 (talk) 06:50, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

the look of nute gunray also resembles the droopy, sagging cheeks of newt gingrich. as well. i think beyond just the name, the appearance is slightly inspired by him — Preceding unsigned comment added by 181.66.171.31 (talk) 11:48, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

Cleaned up
I've removed the three cleanup tags:
 * 1) Excessive summary - I pared as much from the plot summaries as possible while still retaining a brief synopsis of his roles in each.
 * 2) Sources - I added a source for the racism controversy and removed the weasel-worded excuse at the end of the section. If further sources are needed, please use tags at specific points.
 * 3) In-universe language - I think the way the article is organized into sections, each dealing with a different film/book/game, along with the removal of a lot of the unnecessary plot points, should take care of this.

Those were the big changes, along with some reorganization and general cleanup. As with pretty much all pop culture articles on Wikipedia, I'm sure there's still plenty more that could be fixed. Kafziel Complaint Department 06:50, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Shouldn't this article also include brief summaries of his role in the ongoing Clone Wars television series, such as his attempt to bribe the capture of Senator Amidala and his caputre and then later rescue by Ventress? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.90.238.126 (talk) 18:31, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Naturist. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Naturist~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Talk:Keith Joseph

Untitled
I think the "assesment" section of this page should be removed, not because I agree or disagree with the assesment as such, but simply ANY assesment is bound to be the authors opinion about a certain subject, and therefor by its very nature not a neutral point of view. Jcuk

In the second biography it says at one stage to the effect that "at this point his drinking was under control" (quoting from memory, so possibly not exact). Further details?

"Like many great political thinkers, Joseph was a failure in office."

Are there #any# political thinkers who were effective in office? (Was it Karl Marx or Lenin who said that the point of political philosophy is not to describe the situation but to change it?) - It was Marx. This was the last of his "Theses on Feuerbach." NRPanikker 13:44, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Regarding description as right wing
This is a vague term in the extreme, the changes in the Conservative Party in the 1970's very much were formed by the growth of Neo-Liberalism which was as Mrs Thatcher put it a project to "Roll back the Frontiers of the State", it is not an NPOV nor indeed is Neo-Liberal considered a negative term, Keith Joseph was from the early 1970's on in the vanguard of Neo-Liberalism - deregulation, ending big government and minimising government involvement in the economy - these are all parts of Neo-Liberal theory. On social policy Neo-Liberals could vary a lot from being very libertarian to being very strongly socially conservative.

In fact the term right lumps him together with people who favoured extensive state involvement in the economy but who had a very strong emphasis on a more authoritarian social conservatism.

 * Our job is to produce an encyclopaedia which is useful to people. Any article on Keith Joseph which does not describe him as being on the political right is being extremely unuseful. The Conservative Party are on the right of British politics, and Keith Joseph was on the right of the Conservative Party - not the authoritarian right, but the economic right. Fys. “Ta fys aym”. 13:48, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * He didn't use the term himself and preferred more specific technical terminology when categorising people and ideas.--Lord of the Isles 19:04, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Playground Slang

Relations
I 'vaguely recall' reading that he was related to another MP - if so, which? Jackiespeel (talk) 16:14, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

Name
Is the spelling 'Sinjohn' really correct? It is my own middle name and as far as I'm aware is always spelt 'St. John' since the pronunciation 'sinjun' is merely a verbal smoothing of the sound.Erwfaethlon (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 23:06, 19 May 2010 (UTC).

Maybe the spelling was chosen to distance him from the Christian saint, since his family was Jewish? NRPanikker (talk) 02:23, 28 March 2021 (UTC)

Why is so much of this article unsourced?
I am referring in particular to the elements of the article which seem to contain a pro-Thatcherite slant (coupled with, as usual, a subcurrent of anti-Heath sentiment). Pro-Thatcher and anti-Heath seems, sadly, to be the norm with so many Wikipedia articles. Still, at least this one doesn't (yet) include a quote from the odious Enoch Powell. Multiculturalist (talk) 22:12, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * It's basically a Keith Joseph fan page. Right wing Tory wonks are very active on WP with varying degrees of discretion and subtlety. Every WP article about British Conservative politicians active in the 80s displays this bias and I can't see that much can be done about it given the determination of the editors involved. --Ef80 (talk) 14:57, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

Edgbaston 1974 speech
According to the article, the speech was supposed to have been written by Alfred Sherman. But at the end of the paragraph it is credited to Joseph's assistant, Jonathan Sumption. Both are sourced but it is not clear from these. As it stands, the article contains contradictory claims.

Who wrote it then? Plutonium27 (talk) 11:07, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Joseph inserted the controversial phrase into the speech which was written by Sherman.--Britannicus (talk) 11:29, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

 * So does that mean Sumption's claim can be dismissed? Plutonium27 (talk) 05:11, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

 * I wouldn't call it "Sumption's claim" because he has been indirectly quoted by an unknown person, he hasn't gone on record to take responsibility for it. However Joseph's biographers say this: "Ironically, although Joseph's close allies have treated responsibility for the phrase as if they were playing pass-the-parcel with a hand grenade, it seems that this section was almost the only contribution which Joseph made to his own speech. In recent months Sherman had taken care to remove additions to the texts which he provided, but on this occasion Joseph was so attracted by a phrase that he re-inserted it. [Note: ...So anxious was Joseph that the responsibility should lie with the true culprit that as late as 1989 he personally telephoned to correct a Times diarist who had attributed the phrase to Sherman; see The Times, 10 February 1989; interview with Alfred Sherman.]"--Britannicus (talk) 19:28, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Thanks for looking that up, Britannicus. Quite an long-running mess, ay? I expect the party was still reeling from the Rivers of Blood fallout. I wonder if Joseph's keenness to exonerate him was because of Sherman's closeness to his free-market protegee Thatcher and he didn't want to make her look bad like she enjoyed and employed the wisdom of someone who would consider this a reasonable proposition for a politician's speech. It occurred to me that presumably Joseph had read it through first and yet didn't see fit to put a line through it - but he now claims he wrote it? Wouldn't be the first time he took the fall for her, would it? BTW, Alfred Sherman page here looks like a fan has had at it. *sighs (have spent most of the night cleaning up this sort of thing and can't face another one...)
 * All the best Plutonium27 (talk) 05:38, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Whether he did or did not, the reliable sources claim Joseph wrote that part of the speech.--Britannicus (talk) 12:27, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
 * In a podcast on the BBC with Nick Robinson, Lord Sumption claims that he had nothing to do with the speech and first learnt about it through reading the newspaper. On the matter of provenance, he simply says it was written by Sir Alfred Sherman. — Preceding unsigned comment added by H.E. Nightingale (talk • contribs) 17:43, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

Date of divorce
The date of his divorce from his first wife is quoted as 1985 in the text, but 1978 in the box. Which was it? Valetude (talk) 12:53, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

 * According to his entry in the ODNB, they separated in 1978 and divorced in 1985. Crisso (talk) 11:20, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

'Bananas'
A longish paragraph concerned the story of Sir Geoff Palmer, who claimed in a 2015 radio interview that in the 1960s Joseph had addressed a racist remark to him ("go back where you came from and grow bananas") during an interview at Nottingham University. This story has since been questioned (see Charles Moore, "Spectator's Notes", The Spectator, 11 September 2015), on the grounds that there is no reason to suppose that Joseph could have been involved in this incident and that Palmer may have confused Joseph with someone else. Moore points out that Joseph was profoundly anti-racist and had no connection either with agriculture or with Nottingham University as the anecdote suggests. As the story is suspect (and is in any case WP:UNDUE in context), I have removed it awaiting any independent confirmation of its accuracy.--Smerus (talk) 07:42, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

Umbel

In botany, an umbel is an inflorescence that consists of a number of short flower stalks (called pedicels) that spread from a common point, somewhat like umbrella ribs. The word was coined in botanical usage in the 1590s, from Latin umbella "parasol, sunshade". The arrangement can vary from being flat-topped to almost spherical. Umbels can be simple or compound. The secondary umbels of compound umbels are known as umbellules or umbellets. A small umbel is called an umbellule. The arrangement of the inflorescence in umbels is referred to as umbellate, or occasionally subumbellate (almost umbellate).

Umbels are a characteristic of plants such as carrot, parsley, dill, and fennel in the family Apiaceae; ivy, Aralia and Fatsia in the family Araliaceae; and onion (Allium) in the family Alliaceae.

An umbel is a type of indeterminate inflorescence. A compressed cyme, which is a determinate inflorescence, is called umbelliform if it resembles an umbel.

Orangelo

An orangelo (Spanish chironja – C. paradisi × C. sinensis) is a hybrid citrus fruit originated in Puerto Rico. The fruit, a cross between a grapefruit and an orange, had spontaneously appeared in the shade-providing trees grown on coffee plantations in the Puerto Rican highlands.

In 1956, Carlos G. Moscoso, from the Horticulture, Agricultural Extension Service of the University of Puerto Rico noticed trees that grew fruits that were larger and a brighter yellow than those of the other trees on the plantations. Rootstock trials led to the development of the hybrid commonly known as the chironja. In Puerto Rican Spanish, the name is a portmanteau of orange (Puerto Rican Spanish: china) and grapefruit (toronja).

Orangelos are often eaten in the same manner as grapefruit (cut in half and eaten with a grapefruit spoon), but are sweeter and brighter in color than grapefruit, as well as being easier to peel. They are round to pear-shaped, with 9–13 segments.

Hello! I see that you replaced some of the bands listed as "major articst" (an anon having replaced the others). Could you explain (here, or preferably on the article's Talk page) why they count as major, given that there are no Wikipedia articles on them, and Googling for a number of them suggested very much otherwise? Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 23:05, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I just reverted to the previous version as the annon edit removed a lot bands from the list including the band that coined the phase and genre (man is the bastard). The article needs work and the bands listed need stubs at least, but I didn't have time to do any of that at the time.Tombride 23:58, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Please discuss your edits
Before making anymore edits on the This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb page please discuss them on the talk page. I have cited 2 sources to back up my claim, and you have cited none. Basically you appear to be engaging in original research. Furthermore, you are close to violating WP:3RR (as am I, which is why I will not edit it again today).

Final Warning
If you edit the genre of This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb again, you will be reported for vandalism.

Not sure why you did what you did
Hi there, I wasn't planning on vandalizing our good friend's talk page, I just wanted to take my comments out of there. So, not sure why you took the liberty to do what you did, but, I'm sure you did it in good faith. Kroche14 04:49, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Rand Dyck Page
Hi. I've noticed you tagged this article for a copy right violation. In the last hour I've reverted this page twice as the copyright violation was removed. Once by user kroche14(who I see you reverted edits by in the past) and once by ip: 208.96.78.122 (whom I believe is a sock puppet of kroche14, and I've added a checkuser request for that). I'm just posting this as a heads up to maybe keep a watch on that page if you aren't already. Thanks! Tomb Ride My Talk 17:23, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
 * There is probably no need to do a checkuser request. This IP and this user edit the same pages, have the same edit patterns, and sometimes the IP signs with that user ID.  I wouldn't call it a sockpuppet, just editing while not logged in.  I know I have done it accidentally every once in a while.  And yes, I am watching that page.  Given this user's history, I think a few of us should.  -- JamesTeterenko 00:07, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: James, get over yourself. 208.96.78.122 22:45, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay, well, I guess the checkuser request was unneeded. Thanks for the clairification on that.  Tomb Ride My Talk 03:27, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Regarding the "rewrite" and whether it is a copyvio: Well, the list of publications does seem to be copied from his university web site.  Even the headings have the French translations like the original source.  The text does seem to be modified, but it does read like manipulated text from the original.  Let's let the people who monitor the copyright violations make judgement on this one.  -- JamesTeterenko 00:31, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

None of you let up do you? So far my experiences with Wikipedia has been most unpleasant, had I known member's of the Wikipedia community were this brutal I would not have invested as much time contributing to this online resource bank. All I can say at this point is that my perception of Wikipedia is forever changed and I will continue to hold the view that Wikipedia is poorly managed by people who take pride in making others' lives unnecessarily more difficult.

 * You're right! Darn the police for making the lives of criminals so difficult!  Tomb Ride My Talk 04:06, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Oh, for pity's sake. There are a few basic concepts here.  1) Wikipedia has rules and criteria.  2) Articles written in such a way that satisfies such criteria stick around and don't get reverted.  3) Articles that blatantly flout those rules and criteria get hammered.  4) Editors who routinely ignore those rules and criteria get watched very closely.  5) Editors who routinely satisfy those rules and criteria generally have their edits trusted.  What about these concepts is so hard to comprehend?  RGTraynor 14:40, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

 * HaHa. Come on now. You know better than to refer to me as a criminal. Let this silly war over editing articles come to an end now. It is beginning to appear as if we are all children. Kroche14 04:17, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Reminder...
When using template tags on talk pages, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:test}} instead of {{test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. — Ian Manka Talk to me‼ 03:03, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

John R. Solomon

John Roman Solomon (May 24, 1910 in Zoria, Manitoba – June 25, 1985 ) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada. He served in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1941 to 1957, alternately as an independent and as a Liberal-Progressive.

Solomon was educated at the University of Manitoba where he earned a law degree. He was called to the Manitoba bar in 1936 and worked as a barrister. Barry was the director for the Selkirk Board of Trade. He was also a member of the Ukrainian Self Reliance League.

He was first elected to the Manitoba legislature in the 1941 provincial election, for the rural constituency of Emerson. At the time, Manitoba was governed by a coalition ministry representing all of the major parties, and some independents. Solomon contested the Liberal-Progressive nomination, but lost it to Herbert Wright and entered the contest as a pro-coalition Independent Liberal. He defeated Wright by 701 votes in the general election.

Solomon joined the Liberal-Progressive party after the election, and was returned without difficulty in the 1945 provincial election. In the 1949 election, he was returned by acclamation.

Solomon lost the Emerson Liberal-Progressive nomination to Frank Casper in the buildup to the 1953 election, but campaigned as an "Independent Liberal-Progressive" and defeated Caspar by 174 votes. He resigned his seat in 1957, when he was appointed a county court judge. In 1971, Solomon was named to the Court of Queen's Bench of Manitoba and served until 1983.

He died in Winnipeg at the age of 75.

Disorganized offender

In criminology, a disorganized offender is a type of serial killer classified by unorganized and spontaneous acts of violence. The distinction between "organized" and "disorganized" offenders was drawn by the American criminologist John Douglas and Roy Hazelwood. These profiles were also studied and modified in the FBI's Behavioral Science Unit located in Quantico, Virginia. By classifying these offenders into different categories, the FBI is able to track down offenders by studying their behavior and habits.

Offender background
The disorganized offender usually originates from a turbulent family situation and has dealt with assault from family members growing up. They are also typically low-average or below-average intelligence. Their actions demonstrate poor work ethic and they are apt to be regularly fired or reprimanded at work. In the cases where a disorganized offender has a steady work ethic, they work blue collar jobs or jobs which require little or no use of reasoning. They are socially inadequate and possess little to no interpersonal skills. They limit their social interactions with others and tend to isolate themselves. Most disorganized offenders have never been married or in a serious relationship before. It is common that a disorganized offender may claim to be heterosexual, but evidence will usually suggest that their sexual relations align with paraphilia. Some disorganized offenders have exhibited homosexual tendencies, but in such cases, any homosexual contact they may have is usually a symbolic act of dominance or an offshoot of their paraphilia.

Disorganized offenders often have an innate fear or anxiety towards people, especially strangers, and they tend to live in a complex delusion that they have constructed in their mind. This delusion that they have created often leads them to commit acts of violence, both intentionally and unintentionally. Ed Gein, for example, exhumed the corpses of women that reminded him of his mother. He also consumed parts of them because he believed that he could preserve his mother's soul inside of his own body. He then created a "female suit" made of human flesh that he would wear when assuming his mother's identity. These offenders also commonly have obsessive thoughts and behave frantically, hence why the crime scenes for these offenders are messy.

Habits and crime patterns
Disorganized offenders do not venture far from their homes when committing murders, as they often lack consistent traveling methods (such as a car). During the assault, disorganized offenders are usually not aware of their actions or the repercussions; they are caught up in the delusions they have deemed reality instead. They do not plan out who their victims will be, it is merely situational; they are either chosen at random or are people they know personally, and physical characteristics may not play an important role. The disorganized offender's actions are based mainly on spontaneity, which is why physical characteristics may not be as relevant to them in the moment. A common pattern found in disorganized crimes is that the victim is depersonalized as well. These individuals kill for the sole purpose of control and dominance, a trauma response to the abuse they faced at a younger age.

During the crime, the offender may be using drugs or alcohol. The murder is sadistic; the disorganized offender uses overkill. A disorganized offender may stab their victim repeatedly, even after death. They may also dismember or cut the body, including parts of the face. Because the crime is unplanned, the murder weapon is usually found near the scene and there are fingerprints or DNA left on scene as well. A common method used by disorganized offenders is the "blitz" attack, which is where the offender uses extreme force on the victim to gain control over them. They do not attempt to hide or conceal the crime; the body usually remains where the crime occurred.

Interview techniques
The FBI has tracked a plethora of patterns for the disorganized offender, and they have also compiled a list of interview techniques that will help the offender open up or confess. One particular strategy is connecting with the offender on a personal level. Creating a bond and having the interviewer highlight that they understand the offender will help them feel more comfortable in the situation. Disorganized offenders are not used to frequent social interactions, and therefore it is crucial to not immediately jump into the crime scene investigation and interrogation. Instead, approaching the situation in a roundabout way by discussing other events and then casually bringing up the main concern is another way to build trust. Taking an aggressive approach is not going to be successful in this scenario; trust is the key in this interaction and interviewers should aim to build a connection with the offender. Finally, it is noted that interviewing disorganized offenders during the nighttime is effective, mainly because most disorganized offenders prefer nighttime and this may open up communication easier than during the day.

Well-known examples
Some examples of well-known disorganized offenders are Jack the Ripper (mentioned above), Richard Chase, and Herbert Mullin. All of these individuals have been studied, and the patterns arising from their actions and their backgrounds highlight that they are disorganized offenders.

Radiotelevizija Slovenija

Radiotelevizija Slovenija (Radio-Television of Slovenia) – usually abbreviated to RTV Slovenija (or simply RTV within Slovenia) – is Slovenia's national public broadcasting organization.

Based in Ljubljana, it has regional broadcasting centres in Koper and Maribor and correspondents around Slovenia, Europe, and the world. RTV Slovenija's national radio services operate under the name Radio Slovenija, while the television division carries the name Televizija Slovenija or TV Slovenija. The names are sometimes Anglicized as Radio Slovenia and TV Slovenia, respectively. There are three national and four regional radio services, which can all be heard online as well. RTV Slovenija also finances the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra and the RTV Slovenia Big Band.

The legal foundation for the institution is the Radiotelevizija Slovenija Act (Zakon o Radioteleviziji Slovenija). It is the only public nonprofit broadcasting organization in Slovenia to operate both radio and television stations. The law also requires it to air radio and television services for the country's two indigenous linguistic minorities, which it does in collaboration with the regional broadcasting centres in Maribor (for the Hungarian-speaking minority) and in Koper (for the Italian-speaking minority). Approximately 73% of RTV Slovenija's funding comes from television licence fees.

History
Radio Ljubljana signed on the air for the first time on September 1, 1928, with experimental broadcasts. By October 28 the radio station already had a scheduled programme. On April 11, 1941, the station's transmitter in Domžale was destroyed and the station was occupied by Italy.

On April 1, 1949, the first TV laboratory was established in Ljubljana, but was separate from the radio station. However, the task of setting up a television service was eventually assigned to Radio Ljubljana. Second radio program started in 1951. On November 11, 1958, the TV channel got a regular schedule, but it was shared by other Yugoslav republics, with TV Ljubljana getting around 30% of airtime. TV Ljubljana produced its first broadcast for Eurovision, showing ski jumping in Planica, in 1960. During that decade, the amount of programming produced exclusively for Slovenian audiences increased substantially. On April 15, 1968, the main evening newscast was broadcast in Slovene for the first time. It had previously originated in Belgrade and was produced in Serbo-Croatian.

In 1970, the RTV Slovenia record label was established. In 1971, TV Koper/Capodistria, a subsidiary of RTV Ljubljana, was launched as the first bilingual TV station in Slovenia, serving the Italian community in Slovenia and Croatia. However, it enjoyed huge popularity in many parts of Italy. There, RAI still had a monopoly on television, so many Italians eagerly tuned into the new Yugoslav station, which broadcast mostly in color. Private companies built transmitters and translators in various parts of Italy that made TV Koper-Capodistria (generally known as "Telecapodistria" in Italy) available to millions of Italians. Because the station used the PAL color standard, Italians bought PAL TV sets in large numbers, ending the hopes of the French government that Italy might adopt its SECAM system instead. With the advent of privately owned, purely commercial television in Italy, the station's popularity eventually began to diminish.

Starting from 1974, TV Ljubljana's main service was also gradually converted to color. In 1981, they aired the children's television series 40 Green Elephants. In 1984, teletext was introduced, whereas the digitalization started in 1986. In the 90s, Radio Ljubljana started transmitting an RDS signal.

At first, TV Ljubljana's second television network primarily relayed programs from other Yugoslav television stations. In the late 1980s, however, the percentage of TV Ljubljana's own programs on the second network increased dramatically.

In the year when Slovenia became independent in 1991, the institution was renamed to Radiotelevizija Slovenija (from RTV Ljubljana). On January 1, 1993, RTV Slovenija was admitted as a full active member of the European Broadcasting Union following the collapse of Yugoslavia, and began participation in the Eurovision Song Contest.

In the mid- to late 1990s, TV Slovenia began to face increased competition from Slovenia's commercial television stations. In 1995, RTV Slovenija published its first web page. Radio digitalization started in 1995, whereas the digitalization of television broadcasting started in 1999.

In 1997, satellite broadcasting started via Hot Bird 3. In 2001, RTV Slovenija's Multimedia Centre was established to help introduce new technologies. A new multimedia web portal was introduced in 2002. This portal includes regular news updates, broadcast archives, and the live transmission on line of most services, both radio and television. RSS feeds were introduced in 2005. The public broadcaster referendum, 2005 was approved by a slight majority of voters, but the referendum saw a very low turnout. On November 12, 2005, a law was passed stating that Radio-television Slovenia is "a public institution of special cultural and national importance..."

In May 2008 TV Slovenia began airing a new TV channel, TV Slovenija 3, dedicated primarily to live Parliament coverage. In August 2008 TV Slovenia broadcast their first HD event – Olympic Games 2008 on test DVB-T channel. The Slovenian public broadcaster law referendum, 2010 was rejected by voters. In 2011, analogue signal was abandoned.

Legal framework
The 1994 Law on RTV Slovenia regulates public broadcasting. RTV Slovenia has a Programming Council and a supervisory board; RTV is required by law to be independent and autonomous, to respect human integrity and dignity in its programs, to observe the principle of impartiality, and to ensure the truthfulness of information and the pluralism of opinions and religious beliefs. The law also requires the public broadcaster to provide radio and TV programs for the Italian and Hungarian minorities in Slovenia.

After EU accession, the new 2005 Law on RTV Slovenia reintroduced a dominant role of the state and the executive in the appointment of RTV's governing bodies, excluding civil society institutions (e.g. universities, association of writers, and sports organisations) which were previously involved. The draft law raised several domestic and international criticisms, including from the International Federation of Journalists and the Council of Europe, but the Slovenian institutions dismissed most of them and went along with adopting the new law in November 2005, which was later narrowly confirmed by 50.7% of voters in a special referendum.

The current governance system of RTV Slovenia allows control over almost all managerial bodies and over the appointment of all key editors to the governmental majority. Majority parties also control the majority of the new Programming Council and supervisory board of RTVS, thus being also able to appoint RTVS' Director General, who will in turn appoint and manage the directors of radio and TV, the editors-in-chief, and the senior management. This governance system is deemed a threat to the independence and credibility, trust, and respect with the public of RTV Slovenia by the European Journalism Centre. The following period indeed saw a host of cases of political interference in the editorial and journalistic work of the Slovenian public broadcaster, whose public credibility (particularly for the TV) fell dramatically.

The Varuh pravic poslušalcev in gledalcev ("Listener and Viewer Ombudsman") of RTV Slovenia was appointed for the first time in 2008, according to art.16 of the RTV Slovenia Law, to "address the comments and suggestions of viewers and listeners" and "give instructions to the director-general regarding changes that must be effected on channels."
