Date wikilinks
Hi. Thanks for all your efforts on the 1988 Windies article. I wonder if you'd mind unlinking all the partial dates in your templates? The reader gains no knowledge from (say) the June 2 article, so convention is to wikilink only full dates in FAs. Cheers! --Dweller (talk) 13:45, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

WP:CRIC
Hello, Juwe.

I'm making improvements to the project main page and to the review processes. As you pointed out, the project scope doesn't say anything about templates and I'd like to add something. If you have any wordings in mind, could you please let me know? Thanks again. --BlackJack | talk page 05:26, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Hi BlackJack,
 * I have responded to the post on your talk page.
 * Cheers, --Juwe (talk) 06:30, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Hello again, Juwe. I had a look at this, which you mentioned on my talk page: ...and I think it had been put in Category:Cricket templates by mistake as it should have been in the navbox category. I've moved it there. There is a similar box on the infobox category page.

I think for the most part that it is a case of ensuring that every template is in the right category but also ensuring that articles don't get into the template categories. I've just removed half a dozen articles that had template text embedded in the article rather than a template call (as a result the noinclude doesn't work). I'll keep an eye on th etemplates as I go through things and make corrections accordingly. We do need to make sure that unused or useless templates go into the junk folder.

It looks as if there are just the four distinct template types: navbox, infobox, the CR category and these Australian colour codes. If we can structure everything that is there by using these four categories I think we will be okay. It's possible that another category type or two might need to be created but I don't think the problem is half so bad as it first seemed.

Best wishes. BlackJack | talk page 18:57, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

 * The 4 categories that you have suggested sound like a good start. However, I think that there probably are more than 4 different types of template around at the moment. I suppose it depends on the definitions you use, but I would say that this template: Template:Test match, while it might be classified as an "infobox", is really a different type of template altogether. Maybe it would fit into a category called (for example) "Match result templates". Regarding the Australian colour codes, this category might be OK to start with, but hopefully it will become a subcategory of "Team colour codes" in the future. I agree with having a "Junk templates" category, but I also think it would be good to have a "Miscellaneous templates" category for templates that, as yet, haven't been categorised (and future templates not yet conceived of).
 * Regards, Juwe (talk) 04:02, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Ashes / Non-Ashes
Juwe, the best thing to do is to create an inverted Ashes version of your non-Ashes template and use that in Ashes series articles with the non-Ashes template in non-Ashes series articles. That way, every article will contain a link to every series and the emphasis on series type will be appropriate. Regards. --BlackJack | talk page 07:39, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Absolutely. I will do that when I have a spare moment in the near future. Juwe (talk) 08:15, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

IPL Strike Rate/Economy Table Filters
Hi, I am the person who initially put these tables on that page (and had thought of those unnecessarily convoluted filters). I do agree that for bowling the filter proposed by you is better just because it is much simpler, and achieves the same thing that was intended in the first place (i.e. someone shouldn't be high on this list at the end of the tournament just by having 1 or 2 good performances). 20 overs cutoff ensures that the bowler has bowled in at least 5 matches, which seems a big enough sample to decide whether he REALLY was economical overall and not just on one bad pitch/against one bad opposition.

This, however, is not true for the batting filter if we just say that everyone over 150 runs qualifies. A single great performance (by McCullum, Symonds, Hussey etc) which might've been the result of a really good batting pitch and/or a weak bowling attack ensures that you will be high on this list even at the end of the tournament. That does not seem ideal to me.

So, in my opinion, either 150 runs is just too small a limit for this table and should be raised to maybe 200. But, probably more appropriately, we could make it something like at least 7 innings (considering that 14 matches is the minimum that every team gets to play) or maybe a combination of both (at least 5 innings and at least 150 runs, perhaps?).

Perhaps I have this stupid knack of coming up with convoluted filters when a simpler one will do the trick. If you can think of something better that will take care of this problem then please let me know about it. The problem I am speaking of is this couple-of-good-days-and-you're-top-of-the-heap nature of the 150 runs filter.

Thanks Rtyags (talk) 14:48, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Hi Rtyags.

 * I suppose the fundamental problem with those 2 tables is that they require filters at all, unlike the "most runs" and "most wickets" tables, and that it is potentially better for a player to have played fewer matches. For the "batting strike rate" table, when I changed the old filter to the new one, I was essentially trying to avoid the situation of having the table consist of the fastest scoring 5 batman out of the 9 or 10 highest scoring batsmen (as well as simplifying the filter to the reader).

 * Your point about single performances being responsible for most of the 150 runs is a good one, although I don't like the idea of the qualification being just "at least 7 innings" as this could lead to some tailender having scored (something like) 50 runs off 22 balls over 7 innings and being at the head of the table. Maybe your idea of a combination of runs and innings is the way to go. I think "7 innings and 150 runs" might be appropriate, as "5 innings" could still easily lead to McCullum-type situations (he had 4 innings). At the moment, this combination has 26 eligible batsmen, which I think is a large enough pool, especially given that this will probably rise somewhat by the tournament end.

 * Finally, I don't think your filters were bad to start with. There were 2 things that made them more appropriate earlier on in the tournament:
 * Much less than the full quota of matches had been played and so it would be ridiculous to have a filter that said "at least 7 innings" when each team had only played 5 matches, or "at least 150 runs" if only 3 batsmen had yet surpassed this number of runs.
 * We didn't know what sort of runs totals batsmen would end up with for the tournament. I think that at the start of the tournament, I expected far more batsmen to have passed 200 runs and 300 runs by now.
 * So in summing up, I think that "7 innings played and 150 runs scored" is a good solution. What do you think? Juwe (talk) 18:33, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I think 7 innings and 150 runs seems a good enough filter that should give desirable results even at the end of the season. And as you mentioned, we might go with a modified version of my original filters for the initial part of every season. Rtyags (talk) 20:11, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Sounds good Juwe (talk) 20:13, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

 * I have posted this conversation on Talk:2008 Indian Premier League Juwe (talk) 21:50, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

2008 IPL
Are the semi-finals/final listings really necessary for the League progression table? Neither will the matches award the playing teams any points nor will all the teams play in those matches. Any information that it can possibly convey will only be redundant to 2008 IPL. --soum talk 08:13, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

 * I thought it was relevant because it gives a colour-coded form guide for the entire season, otherwise the table stops right before the 3 most important matches. It is true that there will be no points, but I thought we could just put "W" and "L" there instead (and I suppose alter the 1st note to say "group match" rather than "match"). I don't think that there will be an issue with just leaving some boxes white (or grey or whatever) given that the finals section is clearly demarcated. Also, given that the competition is called the "Indian Premier League", I thought that we should label the 2 stages as "Group stage" and "Knockout stage" (or "Finals") and use "League" to refer to the entire competition (similar to the UEFA Champions League). Finally, I don't think there is anything wrong with presenting information twice in 2 different ways (as 2008 IPL and 2008 IPL would), as long as it doesn't detract from the article as a whole in some way (eg by weighing it down in unnecessary detail). I personally don't think it does that as I don't think a reader would get any more bogged doen in the expanded table than the old one, but maybe you disagree?
 * Juwe (talk) 08:45, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

 * I wasn't judging right or wrong. Just whether it was really necessary. --soum talk 11:46, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Sure - and anyway, it is fine for you to say something looks bad if that is what you think. I won't take offence and am willing to change my opinion if a good argument is presented. I wasn't trying to be defensive either, just explaining why I made the change in the first place. Juwe (talk) 12:52, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

2009 IPL
It seems like the issue has been resolved. Do you still need me to intervene? --soum talk 07:48, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Regarding this issue I don't think so. However, it was very annoying (and wasted much time) when LeaveSleaves just tried to avoid the arguments I put forward and stuck to his position no matter what. I think he needs someone to have a word to him about actually reading, taking note of and debating the arguments put forward in discussions, and using a bit of common sense rather than scrambling for technicalities and rushing into AfD nominations. He might take it as an insult if someone tries to correct him, which he shouldn't. We all make mistakes and bad edits, and if they are pointed out we should just accept them and move on. This is not the first time I have had a problem with LeaveSleaves either, and I posted about the issue on WT:CRIC (with a link about the previous disagreement). If you put him on notice in some way (I'm not sure how exactly) that he should be cease employing unconstructive debating techniques, that would hopefully have some positive impact. Thanks Juwe (talk) 08:17, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Hey Juwe. Calm down, man! You will come along a lot of headstrong editors in the course of editing in Wikipedia. And that can be a very frustrating experience - so frustrating at times that it will make you not want to return to active editing ever again - but thats an occupational hazard that comes with being an Wikipedia editor, and almost everyone here has had to face it at some point or the other. Mediation is not going to be of much help here. Mediation can only help with resolving individual disputes, not make an editor change his editing habits. Particularly when he isn't uncivil or rude or disrespectful to other editors in the course of the discussion. Let's assume that he is warned but still continues, what then? There isn't a technical reason to block him from editing. So if he requests an unblock (which is handled by an admin other than the blocking admin), he is almost sure to overturn the block. The only thing that will work here is a community ban, which is a consensus reached by admins to disallow certain actions of certain editors. The first step to that is a call for an RFC. You could initiate an RFC against him. But I would not suggest you do it right now. There has been just two instances you say, and the community will be more inclined to wait and watch for the time being. Instead, I suggest you politely write him a note you (as a co-editor) find an impediment to the goal of collaborative editing, and request if he could keep that in mind for subsequent discussions. I will keep an eye on how it foes and jump in as necessary. --soum talk 01:42, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

 * It is a bit of a tricky problem, considering that he appears to genuinely believe he has done nothing wrong and does make various constructive edits to wikipedia. I also admit that he tries to remain civil in discourse, even if refusing to address the issues raised by another party is in fact uncivil. I don't even seek to have him blocked, I just want him to know he can't get away with grossly wasting other people's time with unacceptable conduct in discussions etc. I have actually already left a post (as yet unreplied to) on the talk page of an admin who appears to commonly deal with dispute resolution (see here User talk:PhilKnight). I am not too convinced about writing him any notes either, as he failed to engage with me constructively at the best of times and was especially recalcitrant when I made any negative remarks about his conduct. Maybe, like you suggest, I have jumped the gun a bit, but I can just see many more wasted hours occurring if someone, other than myself, doesn't put him on notice. Juwe (talk) 02:10, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

 * From the "For What It's Worth Department"...all box scores for American Major League Baseball list the home team second, as do ALL the other professional and semi-professional teams. I'm not sure what the historic connection is between the two (Cricket/Baseball) but I know there is one. The Home team may also be bold or in italics or with an H but even then, the Home team is always shown under the Visiting team. It's the standard way.--Buster7 (talk) 18:14, 8 June 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Buster7 (talk • contribs)

 * Hi Buster7,
 * I appreciate your information about baseball scores, and I realise that to non-cricket-fans the listing of the batting order might not seem that important. However, cricket differs from baseball in some important ways. I will just give you a brief and simplistic explanation of what I mean. In a cricket match, teams will bat for either one innings each (in cricket innings is singular as well as plural) or two innings each, contrasting with baseball's 9 innings per side matches. Batting innings are generally very long as well, as it is difficult to get batsmen out and an innings finishes only when the entire team of 11 has batted (and 10 of them have got out). A typical innings might see 250-300 runs scored. Thus, for a one innings per side match, you have a team that spends the first half of the match "setting a target", and the second half "defending the target" while the other team tries to "chase it down". The tactics batting first and batting second vary greatly, and the tactics of the chasing side will vary depending on the size of the target. One factor that exists in cricket, but not baseball, is that there is often a limit to the number of balls ("balls being bowled" is equivalent to "pitches being pitched") a batting team can face. Thus, teams will want to score as quickly as possible, but also ensure that they don't lose all their wickets (ie, use up all their 10 outs) too quickly. What "fast scoring" and "losing wickets too quickly" mean depends entirely on the context of the match, and in particular on the team batting order. I imagine that in baseball, due to the relative low-scoring, the fact that a significant scoring play may occur at any time (eg a 3-run homer), and that there are many innings per side, the batting order is considerably less important to match tactics. In addition, when balls are bowled, they will land on the playing surface in front of the batsman before reaching him, and the characteristics of this surface affect how easy the ball is to play. During a match, the characteristics of this surface will change in various ways, generally, but not always, making batting more difficult later on.

 * These are some of the reasons why it is important to list teams by batting order in a match. It is also the standard way of presenting cricket scores, not just on wikipedia, but generally too. This is why I initially changed the score summaries of the particular wikipedia page to display teams in order of batting order. I was not even aware of the wikipedia consensus at the time, but it seemed like the logical thing to do. Only afterwards did I discover that there was a strong wikipedia consensus on the issue, and it supported my format. I included the "(H)" symbol to preserve the home team information, which would otherwise have been lost by my edits. The "(H)" would not be appropriate in all circumstances though, as, for most series between international teams, matches will only occur in one coutry, and so adding an "(H)" would just look silly and unnecessary.

IPL Team Colours
Hi Juwe, I was just wondering about your team colours for the IPL. I like them, but I can't find them anywhere else. I see they're self-made, but did you invent them yourself? RatnimSnave (talk) 15:33, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi RatnimSnave, I actually got the idea for them from seeing Template:Leagueicon, which is being used for rugby league teams around the world. I saw that these .svg files had been created by using the program Inkscape. Basically, I downloaded inkscape and imitated the design of the leagueicon pictures, using the colours of the various IPL teams. Juwe (talk) 06:07, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

It's a great idea and I think it works well. I'm surprised there isn't some equivilant in the official productions by IPL. RatnimSnave (talk) 10:14, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Big Number Change

The Big Number Change addressed various issues with the telephone dialling plan in the United Kingdom, during the late 1990s and early 2000s, when the country was running short of new telephone numbers.

Overview
The first was an update to a small number of geographic dialling codes in response to the rapid late-1990s growth of telecommunications and impending exhaustion of local numbers in several cities. The change greatly expanded the pool of available numbers within those places while retaining 'local dialling' (the ability to dial local numbers directly, without needing to dial an area code first). The change affected the dialling codes assigned to Cardiff, Coventry, London, Northern Ireland, Portsmouth and Southampton. The new numbers launched on 1 June 1999 and ran in parallel with the old numbers for a period until culminating in the large switch on 22 April 2000. All of these places moved to eight-digit local numbers ensuring sufficient local capacity for many decades (London saw a five-fold increase in capacity, for example). No other geographic area codes were affected.

The other set of changes affected mobile, non-geographic and premium rate numbers, completing a series of steps first detailed almost a decade earlier. In the early-1990s, mobile, non-geographic and premium rate services had used nine-digit numbers with various codes such as 0402, 0645, and 0898 scattered among the similar-looking geographic area codes such as 0384, 0562 and 0949. The number of available codes for new services was quickly dwindling. In 1995, PhONEday partially addressed this by altering all geographic area codes to begin 01, freeing up hundreds of codes beginning 02 to 09 for other uses. Existing mobile, non-geographic and premium rate services continued as before, using various codes from 02 to 09 and with nine-digit numbers.

In 1997 and 1998, mobile, non-geographic and premium rate numbers started to be issued with ten digits and using only specific new prefixes: 070 for personal numbers, 076 for pagers, 077xx, 078xx and 079xx for mobiles, 0800 and 0808 for freephone, 0845 and 0870 for non-geographic revenue-share numbers and 090x for premium rate numbers. Within each of these groups some smaller number blocks were held aside for the older 9-digit mobile, non-geographic and premium rate services to move into at a later date. The Big Number Change put those final parts into place. Mobile, pager and personal numbers that had not yet been moved to the 07 range were done so on 30 September 1999, and the old numbers remained in parallel until 28 April 2001.

At the end of the process, there were no numbers in the UK beginning 03, 04 or 06. Additionally, the 02, 05, 07, 08 and 09 ranges were only lightly used. With PhONEday in 1995 and the Big Number Change, the UK had achieved huge spare capacity for new services and simple to understand prefix groupings: 01 and 02 for geographic numbers, 070 for personal numbers, 076 for pagers, 07624, 077, 078 and 079 for mobiles, 0500 and 080 for freephone, 084 and 087 for non-geographic and 090 for premium rate. Further new allocations would initially conform only to those groupings. Over the following decade, the 030, 033, 034, 037, 055, 056, 074, 075, 091 and 098 ranges would also come into use for new services or for further expansion of old services.

Geographic number changes
These changes set the following areas to use 02 area codes and eight-digit subscriber numbers.

Great Britain
Note Under the change, the two London areas were reunified under the single (020) code. New numbers beginning with 7, 8 or (later) 3, 4 were allocated regardless of location.

All of the above areas now have an eight-digit local number, in place of their previous six or seven-digit local number. For a short while, you could use either number for local dialling, but local access to the old, shorter numbers was switched off after a few months of parallel running.

Within London, new 70xx xxxx, 71xx xxxx, 80xx xxxx and 81xx xxxx numbers became available for general use. These began to be allocated anywhere in London, with no regard for the 1990-2000 inner/outer London geographical split.

In all of the other areas, new BC0x xxxx and BC1x xxxx numbers became available for general use at the same time (where 'BC' stands for '76' in Coventry, '20' in Cardiff, etc.).

Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, the situation was more complicated. While the primary reason for the changes was the lack of numbering capacity in Belfast (01232), this was not the only reason. When STD codes were introduced in the 1950s, Northern Ireland was allocated only 14 area codes for 34 charging groups. Normal practice in Great Britain was to allocate one area code per charging group but, as calls to Northern Ireland were national rate from anywhere in GB, it was not seen to be necessary to differentiate between all of them. So, area codes covering multiple charge groups ("mixed" areas) were created; in practice this meant that some areas had longer area codes. For example, while Enniskillen was allocated the area code 0365 (0EK5), Kesh was allocated 03656 and Lisnaskea 03657. As a result, numbers in Enniskillen could not begin with 6 or 7, as this would conflict with those of Kesh or Lisnaskea.

All this meant that while Enniskillen's numbers could be six digits long, Kesh's and Lisnaskea's (and those of other dependent exchanges) could only be five digits, due to the 9-digit limit of the length of a phone number at the time. This severely restricted capacity in these areas. As a result, at the Big Number Change, all these dependent exchanges were migrated to different numbers than their parent exchanges; in this instance while Enniskillen's 01365 (the 1 coming from PhONEday) was migrated to 028 66, Kesh went from 013656 to 028 686 and Lisnaskea from 013657 to 028 677. This meant that Kesh could expand into the rest of the 028 68xx range.

Note that the new numbering scheme groups numbers together such that the first digit identifies the county in alphabetical order. The exception is the Greater Belfast area where all numbers begin with 9, regardless of the county. The full list of changes for Northern Ireland is as in the table above.

National dialling only ranges
In London, old National Dialling Only 0xx xxxx and 1xx xxxx numbers were migrated to new 0axx xxxx and 1axx xxxx numbers (where 'a' is mostly 0 or 1, so far).

In all of the other areas, old National Dialling Only 0xxxxx and 1xxxxx numbers were migrated to new 0aax xxxx and 1aax xxxx numbers.

The migration from old to new numbers was as follows:

Special services and freephone
The following changes were made to non-geographic numbering ranges to bring them in the 08xx special services range. The 0500 (Mercury FreeCall) code remained in use after The Big Number Change, but no new numbers were allocated after 28 April 2001. The 0500 range was eventually ceased on 3 June 2017, with numbers transferred to 0808 5xx xxxx equivalents during a three year transition period prior to that date.

The 0800 (BT Freefone) code has remained, but no new nine-digit numbers have been allocated since 1997. Instead, all 0800 numbers issued since that time have ten digits after the leading 0 or +44.

Premium rate
The following changes were made to non-geographic numbering ranges to bring them in the 090x premium rate range.

Personal numbers
Personal numbers moved to the 070 range.

Mobile numbers
The following changes were made to mobile phone numbering ranges to bring them in the 07xxx mobile numbers range.

Pager numbers
The following codes for pager numbers were also changed, so that all are in the 076 range: Non-standard pager prefixes beginning 01 were moved to their new 076 allocation.

Some of these codes, as indicated by the arrow "→", had already been changed during PhONEday to add a "1" after the initial zero, and now they have been changed again.

Numbers for drama
These fictional numbers were originally made available by Oftel for dramatic purposes; for example, for quoting in TV, radio and film programmes. Ofcom revised the list some years after the Big Number Change, and explained: "Telephone Numbers recommended for drama purposes cannot be allocated to Communications Providers for their customers because of the potential influx of calls that customers may receive should their Telephone Numbers be shown in a drama."

Although not directly connected with the official Big Number changes, these number allocations were updated with the new prefixes and with additional areas, as well as changing from 10 to 1000 numbers allocated per block, around the same time as the other Big Number changes occurred.

Misunderstandings
Some widespread misunderstandings about area codes came about with the Big Number Change, most notably with London area codes. There is a widespread but erroneous assumption that London has several area codes – 0203, 0204, 0207 and 0208 – whereas, in fact, it has just one: 020. Similar misunderstandings came about with a few other area codes.

First edit to User talk:Mmx1 is 26 June 2006 here. Succeeding edits relate to same F-14 topic until here, when the topic shifts to a list nominated for deletion. Note that the edit seems to indicate this second meeting happened by chance.

I could not find any common pages edited by Wiarthurhu and Mmx1 in the last thousand edits by both, outside of the F-14 dispute.

I think it is fair to say there is no stalking here.

The only incivil comment against Mmx1 in the last 500 edits: Misformed Crap.

The only personal attack against Mmx1 in the last 500 edits: What really !@!#$%es me off about WP.

I don't see any pattern of WP:CIVIL, WP:NPA, or WP:STALK here. I must admit after reading some of the debate I am feeling sympathetic to Wiarthurhu since he does appear to cite numerous sources to support his position. I have of course not read anything by Mmx1 so I cannot say if his position is reasonable. Galindo 04:02, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Ocean Waves

Ocean Waves, known in Japan as I Can Hear the Sea (海がきこえる), is a 1993 Japanese anime coming-of-age romantic drama television film directed by Tomomi Mochizuki and written by Keiko Niwa (credited as Kaoru Nakamura) based on the 1990–1992 novel of the same name by Saeko Himuro. Animated by Studio Ghibli for Tokuma Shoten and the Nippon Television Network, Ocean Waves first aired on May 5, 1993, on Nippon TV. The film is set in the city of Kōchi, and follows a love triangle that develops between two good friends and a new girl who transfers to their high school from Tokyo.

Ocean Waves was an attempt by Studio Ghibli to allow their younger staff members to make a film reasonably cheaply. However, it ended up going both over budget and over schedule. In 1995, a sequel to the novel, I Can Hear the Sea II: Because There Is Love, was published. In the same year, a TV drama was produced mainly based on this work starring Shinji Takeda and Hitomi Satō.

Plot
In Kōchi, Taku Morisaki receives a call from his friend, Yutaka Matsuno, asking to meet at their high school. He finds Yutaka with an attractive female transfer student, Rikako Muto, whom Yutaka was asked to show around. Rikako is academically gifted and good at sports, but also arrogant. Taku believes she is unhappy about leaving Tokyo.

On a school trip to Hawaii, Rikako asks Taku to lend her money, as she has lost her own. As Taku has a part-time job, he lends her ¥60,000. Promising to repay him, she warns him not to tell anyone.

Back in Kōchi, the third year begins with Rikako making a friend, Yumi Kohama. Rikako has not returned Taku's money and he wonders if she has forgotten. Out of the blue, a distressed Yumi calls Taku, explaining that Rikako had tricked her into coming to the airport on the pretense of a concert trip, only to discover that their real destination is Tokyo, tickets paid for with Taku's money. He races to the airport and goes to Tokyo with Rikako in place of Yumi.

When Taku and Rikako get to her father's residence, they discover that Rikako's father has already found a new lover. Rikako's father thanks Taku, repays the loan, and arranges a room for him at the Hyatt Regency. Rikako, disappointed in her father, joins him and explains that when her parents were fighting, she had always sided with her father, but had now discovered that he was not on her side. Taku offers his bed and attempts to sleep in the bathtub. The following day, Rikako kicks Taku out so that she can change clothes to meet a friend for lunch. After exploring Tokyo and catching up on sleep at the hotel, Taku receives a call from Rikako asking to be rescued from her former boyfriend, Okada. When he arrives, he becomes angry at the conversation, and chastises Rikako and Okada for being "bores."

Back home, Rikako ignores Taku but tells her friends they spent a night together. Yutaka also tells Taku that he confessed to Rikako but was brutally rejected, prompting Taku to confront Rikako in class. They argue in the corridor, where she responds by slapping him and he hits her in return.

The autumn school cultural festival arrives and Rikako becomes more distant from the other girls, many of whom openly dislike her. Taku sees Rikako defend herself from another student who tries to assault her and comments that he is impressed with the way she handled herself. She slaps him but runs away tearfully with regret. After seeing Rikako crying, Yutaka punches Taku for not standing up for Rikako, calls him an idiot, and walks away. None of the three talks to each other for the rest of the year and all begin attending different universities.

Taku, Yutaka, and Yumi reconnect at a class reunion several years later; Rikako does not attend. While reminiscing about high school, Yutaka comments that he punched Taku because he was angry that Taku had held off on pursuing Rikako due to her mistreatment of Yutaka. He was angry his friend had foregone a beautiful possibility on his account as the two watch the sunset and the ocean waves. After the class reunion party, Taku learns that Rikako was visiting Tokyo instead of being at the reunion to meet "someone who likes to sleep in bathtubs." Later, back in Tokyo, Taku inadvertently has a glimpse of Rikako from across a train platform and runs to meet her. Rikako waits for him instead of boarding the train.

Production
The film is based on Himuro's novel which was first serialized, with illustrations by Katsuya Kondō, from the February 1990 to January 1992 issues of Animage magazine. The monthly installments were collected in a hardcover book published on February 28, 1993, with some episodes omitted. Both the book and its sequel were republished as a paperback in 1999, with some pop culture references updated. Kondō served as the character designer and animation director for the adaptation. Production of Ocean Waves was controlled by Studio Ghibli, but much of the animation was produced with the assistance of J.C.Staff, Madhouse Studios, and Oh! Production, who had worked with Ghibli on past projects. This film is the first Ghibli anime directed by someone other than Hayao Miyazaki or Isao Takahata. Tomomi Mochizuki, who was 34 years old at the time, was brought in to direct. The film was an attempt to make anime solely by the young staff members, mostly in their 20s and 30s. Their motto was to produce "quickly, cheaply and with quality", but ultimately it went over budget and over schedule, and Mochizuki claimed he developed a peptic ulcer because of stress.

Reception
The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reports that 89% of critics have given the film a positive review based on 18 reviews, with an average rating of 6.6/10. On another aggregator Metacritic, it has a score of 73 out of 100 based on 4 critic reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".

The website Animé Café gave the film 4/5 stars, noting it to be "A graceful and mature offering from Ghibli's younger generation". On the other hand, Otaku USA criticized the film, describing it as "[Ghibli's] most lackluster film in comparison to everything else they'd done until Tales from Earthsea".

Release and home media
The film premiered on Nippon TV in Japan on May 5, 1993, as part of the network's 40th Anniversary schedules.

Japan
Following its initial premiere, the movie was released on VHS and Laserdisc by Tokuma Shoten on June 25, 1993, through the "Animage Video" imprint. Originally, Ocean Waves was not initially part of the Disney-Tokuma deal due to its status as a television movie, but was eventually included as part of an agreement extension and so was re-released on VHS by Buena Vista Home Entertainment Japan on July 23, 1999.

BVHE Japan released the movie on DVD on August 8, 2003. A remastered version was initially released by Disney as part of the "Ghibli ga Ippai Director's Collection" boxset in December 2021 before gaining a standalone release on April 20, 2022.

A Blu-Ray release was released on July 17, 2015, by Walt Disney Studios Japan.

Internationally
In 2008, distribution company Wild Bunch announced that it had licensed the film to a number of European releasing companies, including Optimum. It was released in the UK under the title Ocean Waves on January 25, 2010 shortly before the planned theatrical release of Ponyo, as part of the Studio Ghibli Collection.

United States
Disney originally had the rights of distribution of Ocean Waves in United States, but they never released the film onto any home media platform, likely due to its more mature content when compared to most Ghibli movies.

In 2016, GKIDS announced that they would release Ocean Waves in limited North American theaters starting on December 28 of that year and expanding during early 2017. It was later released on US and Canada from January 3, to March 24, 2017. The film earned US$12,039 upon its screenings on December 28, 2016.

The film was released on DVD and Blu-ray by GKIDS on April 18, 2017, with only the Japanese audio with English subtitles. a dubbed version had not been released, making it the only Ghibli production that is not a short film to not have an English dub.

Willesden Jewish Cemetery

The Willesden United Synagogue Cemetery, usually known as Willesden Jewish Cemetery, is a Jewish cemetery at Beaconsfield Road, Willesden, in the London Borough of Brent, England. It opened in 1873 on a 20 acre site. It has been described as the "Rolls-Royce" of London's Jewish cemeteries and is designated Grade II on Historic England's Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. The cemetery, which has 29,800 graves, has many significant memorials and monuments. Four of them are listed at Grade II. They include the tomb of Rosalind Franklin, who was a co-discoverer of the structure of DNA.

In 2015, the United Synagogue, which owns and manages the cemetery, was awarded a grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to restore some key features of the cemetery and to create a visitor centre, a permanent exhibition and a web-based education project. The cemetery's heritage project, House of Life, officially opened up the cemetery to visitors on 7 September 2020: it has a programme of public outreach events that have included walking tours, an online literary festival ("Life Lines") and an exhibition at Willesden Library.

History and heritage listing
The cemetery, developed on ground purchased from All Souls College, Oxford, was opened in 1873, three years after the United Synagogue was established by Act of Parliament. It was expanded in 1890, in 1906 and between 1925 and 1926. The cemetery and its funerary buildings, in English Gothic style, were designed by the architect Nathan Solomon Joseph (1834–1909).

In 2017 Historic England listed the cemetery at Grade II on the grounds of: its being the first venture of the United Synagogue; its having associations with many influential families and individuals who are buried there; its overall design by a prominent Jewish architect; "the quality, opulence and variety displayed by the monuments as a group, reflecting both Jewish traditions and English influences"; and its survival – "the Old Cemetery remains intact, whilst the subsequent evolution of the cemetery is well-documented and legible".

War graves and listed war memorial
The cemetery has 33 Commonwealth service war graves from World War I, six of which form a small group by the Assembly Hall, and 77 from World War II, 22 of them grouped in a war graves plot. These include the grave of Dudley Joel (1904–1941), businessman and Conservative Party politician, who died in World War II.

In place of a Cross of Sacrifice, a memorial designed by Ralph Hobday in the form of an obelisk was placed in 1961 by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission opposite the World War II war graves plot. It commemorates both world wars. Israel Brodie, the Chief Rabbi, consecrated the memorial, which was unveiled by Field Marshal Sir Gerald Templer. The first national Jewish war memorial in the United Kingdom, it is Grade II listed.

Other listed monuments
There are three other Grade II listed monuments at the cemetery:

 * The tomb of Maximilian (Max) Eberstadt (1844–1891), who was secretary to the British merchant banker Ernest Cassel. His tomb was designed by Edward Burne-Jones.
 * The tomb of Rosalind Franklin (1920–1958), a chemist and X-ray crystallographer, who was a co-discoverer of the structure of DNA
 * The tombs and burial enclosures of Baron Mayer Amschel de Rothschild (1818–1874), a businessman and Liberal Party MP, his wife Juliana (1818–1874) and their daughter Hannah Primrose (1851–1890), who became Countess of Rosebery and a political hostess and philanthropist. Their tombs were housed in a mausoleum constructed in the 1890s, but this was destroyed by a Second World War bomb in 1941.

12 Monkeys and Source Code
Out of idle curiosity,what made you think of 12 Monkeys while you were watching Source Code? I really liked both movies but haven't seen 12 Monkeys in so long I don't remember it very well beyond a few specific scenes. So I'm kind of wondering if there's something I don't recall that's causing the connection for you. Figured I'd ask you here instead of on the article since it's more fan chatter than article improvement. Millahnna (talk) 09:42, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

The way I saw it was as follows: There's the idea of a single subject being sent into another world repeatedly in order to save lives and the exploration of which world (the one where he's being sent, and the one he's sent to) is more real. I'm surprised reviewers haven't been noting the connection I can't think of too many movies that directly focus on a character trying to figure out which world is real (especially in a sci-fi context). Tyler Szabo 23:28, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Huh. I see what you mean now.  I forgot about the repeating factor in 12 Monkeys. It really has been a long time, I guess. I don't think I've seen 12 Monkeys since it came out on video. When you spell it out like that I'm a little surprised, too.  I'm sure some analysis type stuff will come out over the next year about Source Code; it's the type of film that draws that kind of attention (there's already been some about the theoretical physics of time travel).  I'll keep an eye out for anything making the comparison and see if anything comes up we can use.  Millahnna (talk) 05:18, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Aesthetic taste

In aesthetics, the concept of taste has been the interest of philosophers such as Plato, Hume, and Kant. It is defined by the ability to make valid judgments about an object's aesthetic value. However, these judgments are deficient in objectivity, creating the 'paradox of taste'. The term 'taste' is used because these judgments are similarly made when one physically tastes food.

Hume, Kant and Bourdieu
David Hume addressed the subject of aesthetic taste in an essay entitled “Of the Standard of Taste”, one of four essays published in his Four Dissertations in 1757. "Of the Standard of Taste" is highly regarded for its insights into aesthetics. While Hume is generally seen as an empiricist, in matters of taste, he can be classified as an ideal observer theorist, allowing for individual and cultural preferences. Hume distinguishes between sentiments, always correct as they reference only themselves, and determinations, which can be incorrect as they refer to something beyond. Beauty, for Hume, is "no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty". This, according to Hume, makes judgments of beauty and taste sentiments rather than determinations.

Hume argues that beauty lies in the mind, not the object, and opinions about beauty are influenced by cultural conventions, subject to change. He introduces the concept of a true judge, an individual with "strong sense, united to delicate sentiment, improved by practice, perfected by comparison, and cleared of all prejudice." The combined opinions of these rare individuals form the standard of taste, existing within them. This standard is not to be confused with contemporary art critics; the true judge does not apply a standard to objects but possesses ideal perception, enhancing their ability to appreciate beauty. Hume suggests that improving perception leads to better taste.

For Immanuel Kant, as discussed in his Critique of Judgment, beauty is not a property of any object, but an aesthetic judgement based on a subjective feeling. He claims that a genuine good taste does exist, though it could not be empirically identified. The validity of a judgement is not to be ascertained by means of the general view of the majority or some specific social group because taste is both personal and beyond reasoning. Nonetheless, Kant stresses that our preferences, even on generally liked things, do not justify the objectivity of our judgements.

Bourdieu argued against the Kantian view of pure aesthetics, stating that the legitimate taste of the society is the taste of the ruling class. This position also rejects the idea of genuine good taste, as the legitimate taste is merely a class taste. This idea was also proposed by Simmel, who noted that the upper classes abandon fashions as they are adopted by lower ones.

Bad taste
Bad taste (also poor taste or vulgarity) is generally used to deride individuals with 'poor' aesthetic judgment. Bad taste can become a respected and cultivated (if perhaps defiant and belligerent) aesthetic, for example in the works of filmmaker John Waters, sculptor Jeff Koons, or the popular McMansion style of architecture.

A contemporary view—a retrospective review of literature—is that "a good deal of dramatic verse written during the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods is in poor taste because it is bombast [high-sounding language with little meaning]".

Grayck argues that individuals can only be judged as having poor taste if their tastes are informed by the aesthetics education they received.
