Krusty's Fun House

Krusty's Fun House is a puzzle video game based on the animated sitcom The Simpsons.

Gameplay
The player directs small rats to an extermination area through complicated maze-like levels. The player controls Krusty the Clown, who must navigate through his Krusty Brand Fun House. Each level is a puzzle in which a number of rats must be exterminated. Using different objects and obstacles, Krusty must create a path for the rats to follow and guide them towards an extermination device. Other creatures such as snakes, Martians, flying pigs and birds attempt to hinder Krusty's progress by injuring him; he must throw pies in order to defeat them.

In each stage the extermination devices are run by a different character, including Bart, Homer, Corporal Punishment and Sideshow Mel.

Development
Acclaim Entertainment had the rights to The Simpsons brand and starting with the release of The Simpsons: Bart vs. the Space Mutants releasing several games. Between 1991 and 1993 there were over nine video games based on the series and among them was Krusty's Fun House.

The games developer was Audiogenic, a company who was developing a game for home computers that was very similar to what Krusty's Fun House would become. The original game was Rat Trap developed by Patrick Fox and Scott Williams, featuring a big-headed pink-haired boy who guided rats around a stage towards a machine by placing blocks in certain places to exterminate them and was released in 1991 for the Atari ST and Amiga and Commodore 64 computers.

The sole programmer for Krusty's Super Fun House was Douglas Hare. Hare was working as a freelancer on a potential original game for Audiogenic for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Audiogenic had sold the idea of reformatting Rat Trap as The Simpsons-based game which then led to Acclaim getting Hare to port the game. The games feature nearly the same background as Rat Trap. Douglas said that the game was basically added Simpsons elements, such as posters for Duff Beer in the background and the Rats were designed more to match the style of Simpsons artists Matt Groening. Hare only worked on the Super Nintendo version of the game.

Release
The game was released in 1992 for the Amiga, NES, IBM PC compatibles, Master System, Game Gear, Game Boy, Super NES and Mega Drive/Genesis. Acclaim published the console versions and sub-licensed the home computer versions to Virgin. The 16-bit versions on the Super NES and the Mega Drive/Genesis were entitled Krusty's Super Fun House.

There are two revisions of the Super NES and Genesis games. Version 1.1 has completely different music for the second and fourth world.

Reception
Super Play magazine gave the SNES version of Krusty a 79 percent rating and wrote "it's actually pretty good fun to play, although perhaps more of a Younger Player-oriented game than anything else. Not one to set your heart on fire, but a good solid game nevertheless." Computer Gaming World in April 1994 said that the computer version "is an above average arcade/strategy game that is ideal to burn away half an hour or so". In 1995, Total! ranked the game 75th on their Top 100 SNES Games summarizing: "A sort of reverse Lemmings in which you have to kill the little on-screen characters."

The Simpsons: Bart's Nightmare

The Simpsons: Bart's Nightmare is a 1992 video game developed by American company Sculptured Software based on the television show The Simpsons. The game, split into two parts, follows Bart on the street, trying to find his homework pages. The second part of the game consists of minigames. It was released on the SNES and the Sega Genesis. A sequel, Virtual Bart, was released in 1994. Production conflicts resulted in American game designer Bill Williams to leave the video game industry. The game received reviews from critics such as Entertainment Fun comedy and more!

Gameplay
The game is split in two parts. The first is set on a street (probably Evergreen Terrace, but referred to as Windy World). Bart walks around and has to find pages of his homework while avoiding enemies such as living post boxes and various characters from the show. Power-ups that Bart can collect include bubble gum (with which he can blow bubbles to repel enemies or collect floating blue Zs to restore his health), watermelon seeds (which he can spit at enemies to defeat them or make them change direction), pillows (which create a new health bar for him if he runs out of Zs), and his skateboard (which temporarily increases his speed as well as restoring and extending his health bar the longer he is on it). Jimbo and his gang will coerce Bart into strolling with them, causing Bart to lose control of his movements and have to move with them, taking damage as he does. Hitting a flying saxophone will summon Lisa Simpson with pixie wings to sprinkle fairy dust on Jimbo and his gang and transform them into rats, freeing Bart. However, if Bart is by himself, the Lisa pixie will turn him into a frog who cannot attack. If Bart catches a kiss blown to him by an old lady, it will revert him to his human form.

Principal Skinner occasionally appears and tries to dress Bart in his Sunday school suit. If the player walks into Skinner, Bart will change appearance and become very slow and not be able to fire at enemies; however, the suit will also protect Bart from taking damage from all enemies (save for Jimbo and his gang). The suit wears off after a certain amount of time, or when Bart jumps in a mud puddle.

When a page is found in Windy World, the player can jump onto it, where Bart will shrink down on the page, and the player has to choose one out of a selection of two randomly chosen minigames. The player must point Bart to one of the two color-coded doors to play a minigame and retrieve a lost page of Bart's homework. The doors and games are:

 * The green door: Bartzilla, a two-part minigame where Bart must stomp through the streets of Springfield and destroy the army with fire breath and visual lasers. After being zapped by a shrink ray, Bart climbs the Springfield State Building and fights "Homer Kong" and "Momthra."
 * The violet door: A journey into Bart's bloodstream, where Bart must use an air pump to inflate and destroy germs and collect five Smilin' Joe Fissions (a character from the first-season episode "Homer's Odyssey").
 * The yellow door: Itchy and Scratchy, where Bart is being attacked by the "team up" duo, as well as various other household objects that become enemies (the oven and vacuum cleaners shoot fire, the telephone explodes, Marge's picture drops eyeballs, etc.). All fire-based attacks are instantly fatal, with Bart crumbling to ashes. This is the only minigame divided into two separate parts; Bart must locate another page in Windy World before playing the second minigame.
 * The blue door: Bartman, where Bart flies over Springfield as a superhero. Along the way he fights many bosses, including Sherri and Terri in a hot air balloon, Barney Gumble on a pink elephant, Waylon Smithers in a blimp (Bart faces him twice), and eventually Mr. Burns in a biplane. Not only must he avoid the enemies, Bart must avoid clouds of radioactive gas. Bart also receives bottled Squishees from Apu on a magic carpet in this level, which serves to raise his energy bar.
 * The orange door: Idaho Simpson, where Bart must make his way through the balancing columns in "Temple of Maggie". There are two stages, each with a page reward at the end.

The minigames can be played in any order; the pages awarded will be 1 through 8 depending on the order they were retrieved.

Upon either failing the respective minigame (and not getting the page back) or completing the minigame (and receiving the page as a reward), the screen will flash back to Bart's room at night, which shows the number of points the player has and the number of pages collected, while Bart snores. Once a minigame is completed, it cannot be played again. Both doors will be the same color if there is only one minigame to complete.

The game ends when Bart loses all of his Zs (Windy World will be covered in a white fog, suggesting Bart's nightmare is nearly over) and takes damage one more time, or if he successfully completes all the minigames. Depending on how many pages Bart retrieves and how many points he gets, he is awarded a letter grade. Bart will hold it up for the player to see, and then slightly different endings are shown where the players sees the Simpson family's reactions to Bart's grade by having the paper affixed to the refrigerator, which is strikingly similar to the final scene in "Bart Gets an 'F'. If Bart is given an "F", the worst grade, the entire family is mad at him except Maggie, with slightly higher grades having at least Homer pleased with Bart's work. Lisa is always annoyed with Bart's work unless the player manages to get Bart an outstanding grade, in which case she will look at Bart's paper in disbelief.

This minigame-oriented gameplay gives the game an arcade style. Although much of the game could be categorized as a platformer, some of the minigames could fit in the shoot-em-up genre, particularly the Bartman and Bartzilla stages.

Plot
Bart Simpson falls asleep while studying and dreams of a strange universe where TVs and fairies roam the streets. The player must find Bart's lost homework and progress through the various levels to keep the homework pages and eventually wake up.

Development
Bart’s Nightmare was developed by Sculptured Software and chiefly designed by Bill Williams. Company meddling during the production of the game prompted Williams to leave the video game industry. The Simpsons creator Matt Groening was involved with the development of earlier video games based on the series, having final approval on all storylines and character designs. For Bart’s Nightmare, Groening altered the color of Bart’s eyes as he felt they were originally too yellow.

Reception
Entertainment Weekly wrote that "Falling asleep while doing his homework, Bart has to battle with the demons of his subconscious—imagining himself as, among others, a rampaging green Bartzilla and a caped Bartman. A surreal blast." Super Gamer reviewed the SNES version and gave a review score of 73% writing: "It looks as good as the cartoon, but sadly playability is irritatingly tough and not as imaginative as the graphics."

Marys Peak

Marys Peak (formerly Mary's Peak and sometimes still spelled this way) is a mountain in Benton County, Oregon, United States, just southwest of Philomath. According to the Benton County Historical Society, the native Kalapuya called the peak tcha Timanwi, or 'place of spiritual power. It is the highest peak in the Oregon Coast Range. It is also the highest point in Benton County, and ranks eleventh in the state for prominence.

On a clear day at the top of the peak, facing east, northeast, and southeast, one can see the cities and suburbs of the Willamette Valley, as well as the Cascade Range. To the west, the Pacific Ocean is visible on clear days.

The road to the peak now remains open in the winter. During the 2010–2011 winter, the Forest Service announced that it will leave the gates open to facilitate travel to the summit. The road will not be maintained, so a lifted 4x4 or four-wheel chains are required for motor access during the winter months.

On June 15, 2019, the Oregon Geographic Names Board unanimously endorsed a proposal to give Native American names to 10 unnamed creeks that flow down Marys Peak. The Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde and Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians were enlisted to be involved in representing the ancient indigenous groups and selecting the new names. The names proposed for adoption are in the languages of the Kalapuya, Wusi’n and Yaqo’n people who originally inhabited the land. The U.S. Board on Geographic Names unanimously approved the 10 names in September 2019.

History
Kalapuya oral history describes their ancestors climbing the mountain to escape a massive flood. It is an important spiritual site for the Kalapuya. In 1856, the United States government forcibly removed the southern Kalapuya bands from their homes, including the Marys Peak area.

Early American settlers grazed their livestock on the mountain. In the late 1800s, a community called Peak was founded on the northwest slope of Marys Peak. Peak's post office closed in 1917, and the community is abandoned today.

The name Marys Peak, given by settlers of European ancestry, may have been inspired by Mary Lloyd, who came to Oregon in 1845, and was known as the first white woman to cross the Marys River, which has its origin on the mountain, though there are alternate theories about the name.

The city of Corvallis began using the Rock Creek watershed on Marys Peak for its municipal water supply in 1906. As logging operations spread throughout the area, the Corvallis city government bought land in the Rock Creek watershed to preserve its water quality.

From 1946 to 1984, Shriners International held an annual picnic on the summit of Marys Peak to raise money for the Shriners Hospital for Crippled Children (now Shriners Children's Portland). A Statesman Journal article in 1982 reported that the event had raised more than 900,000 dollars since it began. In 1984, poor weather caused the event organizers to move locations.

Ecology
A grassland at the summit of the peak supports diverse wildflower species. The upper slopes are dominated by noble fir, and the lower slopes are dominated by Douglas fir and western hemlock.

The meadow contains several outcroppings of gabbro rock, which are often referred to as rock gardens. The most noted of these outcroppings covers four to five acres on a southern slope near the summit. The rock gardens support many wildflowers that grow well on thin, dry soils. These species include Cascade desertparsley, harsh paintbrush, Olympic onion, and spreading phlox.

In 1989, the Forest Service designated a 924-acre area on the upper slopes of Marys Peak as a Scenic Botanical Special Interest Area. This area includes the meadow at the summit, riparian zones, and tracts of noble fir forest.

Over the last several decades, noble firs have spread into areas of Marys Peak that were once meadow. To preserve the meadow ecosystem, the Forest Service had 3,000 trees removed from 25 acres of land. The trees were harvested by Miller Timber Services, a subcontractor of pulp and paper company Georgia-Pacific. The removal began in the fall of 2015.

In 2015, scientists from Oregon State University identified a type of ice crawler found on Marys Peak as a unique species. It was named Grylloblatta chintimini. "Chintimini" is an alternate spelling of "tcha Timanwi", the Kalapuya name for the mountain.

Bilingual Today, French Tomorrow

Bilingual Today, French Tomorrow: Trudeau's Master Plan and How it Can be Stopped was a controversial 1977 book by James Vernon "Jock" Andrew (1929–2020), a retired Canadian naval officer. It alleged that the prime minister Pierre Trudeau's policy of official bilingualism was a plot to make Canada a unilingually francophone country, by instituting reverse discrimination against Anglophone Canadians.

The book inspired the formation of the lobby group Alliance for the Preservation of English in Canada.

Satyricon (nightclub)

Satyricon was a nightclub in the Old Town neighborhood of Portland, Oregon, United States that operated from 1984 to 2010. It was the longest-running punk venue in the western United States, and has been referred to by some journalists and historians as the "CBGB of the West Coast." It is also the place where musicians Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love are said to have first met.

Located in a building that had served as a horse stable in the early 1900s, the club's owner, George Touhouliotis, founded Satyricon after acquiring a tavern that had operated in the building. Touhouliotis reshaped the tavern into a nightclub, and named it after the 1969 Federico Fellini film of the same name. Satyricon became a prominent music venue in the city, and hosted various local and touring punk and alternative rock bands throughout the 1980s and 1990s.

In May 2003, the club abruptly closed, after which it was acquired by new owners and reopened as an all-ages venue in 2006. It officially closed in November 2010, and the building in which it was located was demolished in July 2011. The club was the subject of a 2013 documentary titled Satyricon: Madness and Glory.

Background
The Satyricon, located at 125 N.W. Sixth Avenue, was formerly Marlena's Tavern, "a dark, narrow barroom on a seedy stretch." Prior to its establishment as a bar and restaurant, the building had served as a horse stable in the early 20th century before being converted into a tavern.

Satyricon was founded by George Touhouliotis, a former taxi driver who acquired Marlena's Tavern in 1983. Upon taking ownership, Touhouliotis re-conceived the location as a nightclub that would offer live music. He named the club Satyricon after the 1969 Federico Fellini film of the same name. At the time, the surrounding Old Town Chinatown neighborhood had a seedy and dangerous reputation. The block was characterized as Portland's skid row, "a real shithole of a neighborhood" with "open drug dealing, fights, knives, [and] guns." Local historian SP Clarke recalled that "A mere attempt to walk the sidewalks ... required a helmet and full body armor."

1980s
Satyricon opened in March 1984, and attracted a wide array of musical groups, as the club's booking agent made "no stylistic or hierarchical" distinction among the musical acts. Local punk bands the Wipers and Poison Idea became notable regular acts at the club, as well as various underground musicians. According to public documents regarding the business's liquor control license, Satyricon opened at 8 p.m. each night, and offered "live music and dancing" from 10 p.m. until around 2:30 a.m. Additionally, the club hosted open mic nights, poetry readings, and performance art exhibitions.

On September 20, 1985, Satyricon began offering food, which included a souvlaki take-out window called Eat or Die. By 1985, the club was selling around $7,000 of alcoholic beverages per month, and around $3,000 in food, with 20% of all food orders occurring through the take-out window. Owner Touhoulitis petitioned for the Oregon Liquor Control Commission (OLCC) to allow for relaxations on allowing minors into the club's bandstand area between March 1984 and July 1985, but multiple incidents in which minors infiltrated the bar led the OLCC to determine that "the premises [are] not suitable for increased access by minors." This largely had to do with the club's layout, which maintained little division between the bandstand and the bar. The interior of the building was described by journalists as such:

"As you step up to the long, obsidian-black bar, you may notice the Buddha that presides from behind the bar, the sensual art above, and stars on the ceiling. Explore a bit more and you'll find graffiti on the tables, an open-staged DJ booth, black & white checkered floors, and the infamous Round-table, in a corner, with a pentagram etched into it. Now, it's time that we enter the inner sanctum, the stage area. Plastered with hundreds of band stickers, that would take someone days to take in. Like a museum of modern art, you see the history dating back to its unveiling in 1983. The stage itself is comfortable, like an old basement rehearsal space with a high ceiling."

In the mid-1980s, the club was frequented by local residents such as poet Walt Curtis and Courtney Love, the latter of whom met friend and bandmate Kat Bjelland there in 1984 through The Miracle Workers' frontman Gerry Mohr. The club is also notable for being the place where Love first crossed paths with her future husband, Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. In a 2010 interview, she claimed she met Cobain there in 1988 at a Dharma Bums concert where she was reading spoken word poetry, although other accounts state that the two met in January 1989 or 1990 when Nirvana was playing at the club, and that they playfully wrestled in front of a jukebox that night. Mark Arm of Mudhoney would later claim the story to be apocryphal, and that two in fact met while Mudhoney was touring with Love's band Hole in Europe in 1991. In a 2015 interview, Love clarified: "It was at the Satyricon ... I sometimes lie and say which bands were playing but I actually don't remember. But Nirvana was obviously playing. He was cute, he was attractive, and he was funny ... Everyone always writes that the song that was playing [on the jukebox] was Living Colour, but that wasn't it. It was "Dear Friend" by Flying Color.

Commenting on the various stories and lore surrounding the club, journalist Zach Dundas wrote: "The written record of the club's existence–which can amount to no more than 1 percent of the Whole Truth–is a florid tale of excess, controversy, creative chaos. And, yes, artistic greatness."

1990s
In 1990, a benefit LP record was put out for the club called "Satyricon ... the Album". It included tracks from local punk acts such as Poison Idea, Dharma Bums and Napalm Beach. Beginning in the early 1990s, Satyricon became a frequent host to grunge bands, including Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, and Mudhoney, among others. In 1993, Satyricon opened its own restaurant called Fellini, a nod to the club's namesake.

Dave Grohl played his first show with his post-Nirvana outfit Foo Fighters (after Cobain's death) at Satyricon. Other events, besides notable concerts, include a number of incidents involving notable people (including Courtney Love passing out) and a police riot in 1990.

Renovation and closure
In May 2003, Satyricon abruptly closed and was slated to be taken over by the owners of another (former) club in town, Moody's. It reopened as an all-ages club in August 2006 under the management of the owners of the Loveland, an all-ages venue in Portland. Mild renovations were undertaken, though a review of the club upon its reopening noted: "The club looks the same ... eerily so. Same bar stools, same black paint. At the same time, it looks unfinished, like someone decided to remodel, ripped up a few boards and then totally slacked off."

In October 2010, Ben Munat, the Satyricon's booking agent, organized thirteen "Farewell Satyricon Shows" for that month. Bands included Big Daddy Meat Straw, the Dandy Warhols (with original drummer Eric Hedford, playing songs from first two albums with some original guitars), Pond, Poison Idea, and Napalm Beach, with the final concert taking place on October 31, 2010. Commenting on the club's closure, owner Touhouliotis said: "I had gotten tired. A place like that runs on creativity and energy; it's not automatic. And by the late '90s, the turn of the millennium, my energy wasn't there."

Demolition and aftermath
Demolition of the building began in July 2011, after which many pieces of furniture, memorabilia, and parts of the building were "unceremoniously given away to anyone interested." The urinal trough in the men's restroom was reportedly acquired by a tulip farm in Gresham. The marquee above the club's entrance was believed to have been either stolen or destroyed in the demolition process, as it remained unaccounted for. In 2017, Courtney Taylor-Taylor, frontman of the Dandy Warhols, reported that he had found the marquee, which he had installed at The Old Portland, a wine bar he opened in 2016. The location of the original building is now home to the nonprofit Maybelle Center for Community and Macdonald West affordable apartments.

In popular culture
The club was used as a filming location for Gus Van Sant's 1985 film, Mala Noche. In 2013, after its demolition, a documentary about the club, Satyricon: Madness and Glory, was released.

Talk:Satu Mare

Wrong demographics ?
First of all, what is the point of the (most likely fabricated or misinterpreted) history of demographics since 1880? I don't see a history of demographics since 1880 in the wikipedia article for other multiethinc cities (for example Bruxelles).

Secondly, I've tried to find the "source of the source" (http://varga.adatbank.transindex.ro/?pg=3&action=etnik&id=2125), because I just doubt those figures are right (in 1880, 7.9% Romanians and 83,1% Hungarians). I've found this paper, an English translation of an article by the same cited Árpád E. Varga: http://www.kia.hu/konyvtar/erdely/erdang.htm. Quoting from the article: "[regarding the Hungarian-ethinity population in Satu Mare, in 1880 and 1910] Similar data are available in Kolozs/Cluj county (1.7 times higher with the proportion increasing from 33.2 to 38.9 per cent); in Szatmár/Satu Mare and Ugocsa/Ugocea (where the proportion increased from 44.4 to 55.1 per cent);" So, in 1880 there were 44.4% Hungarians in Satu Mare and in 1910 there were 55.1%. I remind you this information comes from Árpád Varga E., who is supposed to be the source of the demographics table in the current article - which contains strikingly different numbers. Since both seem to be of Hungarian origin, I can't say which is correct, but my link points to a published article whcich could be verified (Hungarians in Transylvania between 1870 and 1995, Original title: "Erdély magyar népessége 1870-1995 között", Published in Magyar Kisebbség 3-4, 1998 (New series IV), pp. 331-407., Translation by Tamás Sályi, Linguistic editing by Rachel Orbell , Published by Teleki László Foundation. Budapest, March 1999, Editors Nándor Bárdi, László Diószegi, András Gyertyánfy) , while the source of the table in the current article is just a set of tables which supposedly have as primer source the work of Árpád E. Varga (but could as well be a misinterpretation, sinche the source is not really mentioned - at least I don't see it - but I don't read hungarian). -Paul- (talk) 09:51, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Seemingly nobody seems to reply about the wrong data. Please see full text I was mentioning, below:

"In terms of Hungarian native speakers, between 1880 and 1910 the population gain above their natural growth in the region was between 180 and 200 thousand, while Romanian losses were between 130 and 150 thousand, depending on whether we take the birth rate figures of the last decade as retrospectively relevant, or calculate with the more balanced earlier figures for nationality growth. The Romanian losses were mostly due to emigration, which increased dramatically in the 1980s, especially in southern counties of historical Transylvania and became a mass movement at the beginning of the twentieth century. Hungarian population gains, on the other hand, included a migration surplus. However, the exact value of this cannot be determined, since we are unable to give a balance of internal population exchanges between administrative units with respect to the present borders. Nevertheless, the attraction of certain central points giving rise to migration among regions is well known. In Krassó-Szörény/Caraş-Severin and Hunyad/Hunedoara counties, where natural population growth was originally low, mining areas and rapidly developing industrial centres attracted Hungarians from a distance. Thus, in three decades their number multiplied between 4.7 and 4.2 times. The proportion of Hungarians therefore increased from 1.9 per cent to 7.2 per cent, and from 5.1 to 15.5 per cent for the two areas respectively. A massive increase can be seen in certain areas of Temes/Timiş and Torontál counties (the number of Hungarians increased 2.5 times, their proportion growing from 8 per cent to 16.6 per cent). In Arad county, where the increase in proportions was average, the number of Hungarians also grew rapidly (the figure in 1910 is 1.8 times higher than in 1880, with their proportion rising from 22.3 per cent to 29 per cent). Similar data are available in Kolozs/Cluj county (1.7 times higher with the proportion increasing from 33.2 to 38.9 per cent); in Szatmár/Satu Mare and Ugocsa/Ugocea (where the proportion increased from 44.4 to 55.1 per cent); and in the Bihar (Bihor) area, where the proportion of Hungarians rose from 39.8 to 44.4 per cent in spite of the high birth rate among local Romanians. The rise in the number of Hungarian native speakers in Máramaros/Maramureş also deserves attention: the number of Hungarian native speakers here increased 2.1 times over thirty years, and the proportion grew by 5 per cent to reach 19.4 per cent in 1910. At the same time, the serious local economic and social crisis in Szeklerland is well demonstrated by the fact that here, in the smaller language area of the eastern periphery of the country, in Csík, Háromszék and Udvarhely counties, the population increase among Hungarians fell far behind even the Transylvanian average because of losses resulting from migration." The above text can be seen on this page: http://www.kia.hu/konyvtar/erdely/erdang.htm, Hungarians in Transylvania between 1870 and 1995, Original title: "Erdély magyar népessége 1870-1995 között", Published in Magyar Kisebbség 3-4, 1998 (New series IV), pp. 331-407, Translation by Tamás Sályi, Linguistic editing by Rachel Orbell, Published by Teleki László Foundation. Budapest, March 1999

The text clearly states that in Szatmár/Satu Mare, the proportion of Hungarians was 44.4 in 1880 and 55.1% in 1910. Unfortunately the other digits cannot be verified. The strangest thing is that the author is the same as the indicated (and unverifiable) source of the table. The initial table lists as source a website which actually does not lists its source and could be very well fabricated data. I am removing the table and inserting the only verifiable information according to the text above. -Paul- (talk) 13:28, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

 * My dear rumanian history-falsifier-wannabe friend. Those numbers are for the county by the same name (Szatmár), not for the city. So the 1880 numbers are 44% in Szatmár County and 83% for Szatmár(németi). The city had Hungarian majority while the rural areas had Romanian majority. 85.67.116.223 (talk) 18:35, 15 January 2023 (UTC)

History
"and started to enjoy a prosperous life between the two world wars"

The truth is, Szatmarnemeti (Satu Mare) became a neglected city, hundred miles away from the new capital.

"The WWII was a catastrophic event in the life of Satu Mare as it was included in the area that fascist Germany took away from Romania and placed under the control of fascist Hungary (after the Ribbentrop-Molotov pact)."

In 1940 Szatmarnemeti's (Satu Mare) population was over 90% hungarian. As such the change was actually a welcomed event. Sadly, things got worse during March 1944 when the germans invaded the city and sealed the town's jewish population fate.

I've ask you firmly to not remove the two different interpretation!!!
Who's in charge here?!?!?
 * I'm saying: In 1919 Satu Mare was conquered by the romanian army.
 * the proof: april 1919, Aurel Lazar's official notice: "the romanian royal army have conquered and took possesion of municipal Satu Mare and county Satu Mare therefore these parts will be attached to the Kingdom of Romania"

 * The WWII part is completly misleading and untrue, it is the projecton of the former communist Romania history approach into our present days

i'm going to edit this page. here is what i'll remove:

Common Romanian interpretation: - useless

Common Hungarian interpretation: - useless

After the Treaty of Trianon of 1920, Szatmarnémeti (Satu Mare) became - after 1918 Satu Mare became - criztu interpretation

The area was finally occupied by the Romanian 4th.army - the area was recovered, not occupied. -- Criztu 28 June 2005 13:13 (UTC)

Don't do that. After almost a hundred year there are many different point of views related the history of this part of Europe. 1918 did mean nothing in the city daily life ... Nevertheless it was the last year of the WWI, the collapse of the dual monarchy ... that's all... The city was occupied by the romanian forces in april 1919. In Kolozsvar/Cluj even indemntity was taken ...
 * indeed, 1919. but not occupied. the consequent Trianon Treaty recognised ROmania's sovereignty meaning it wasn't occupation, but legal -- Criztu 09:45, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
 * How fast you are ;) So, I'm not familiar with international law but we all know the history is written by the winner, and the Trianon "bandit-treaty" (as it is called by hungarians) did nothing but subsequently approved the status of that time. Many other hungarian cities were occupied (even Budapest in august 1919) and the hungarians could blame themselves (pers. opinion: and the most stupid prime minister of all times: Karolyi, and the red Bela Kun) leting all this happens. (just think on the turkish national defense againts Entente forces) This isn't unusual in our present day history, either. Do something than make it legal ... --fz22 12:21, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
 * then we have Hungarian Interpretation and Rest of The Nations that signed the Trianon and Paris Treaties Interpretation. BUT, "occupation of a territory" reffers to the situation when an army or state takes control of a teritory illegaly. You'll have to demonstrate that Romania took control of Satu Mare illegaly. Otherwise, the word "occupation of Satu Mare by Romania" even in "Hungarian version" is provocative -- Criztu 12:38, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Provocative or not this is another way of seeing things happens 85 years ago. We both know how the romanian army reach the gates of Zion ... sorry Satu Mare ;), but the keyword is when: in 19 April 1919. And the Treaty of Trianon was signed a year later in June 1920 ... I'm just saying that this takeover was made by force, one army made an attempt to keep the teritory the other one wanted to conquer ... This is quite simple. This act of conquest became an act of so called liberation after 4 June 1920.
 * Our knowledge of the realities of thos times is limited to what we read. I read that there was a treaty undergoing in 1918 in order to settle the matter of Transylvania, and that the Bolshevics attacked ROmania and Romania protected what considered to be its territory. recognised as such by the Treaty of Trianon. Your POV is no better or worse than my Pov, then what should be the criteria for the wording of the article ? since UN states that Satu Mare is Romania sovereign, then Romania couldnt be in the illegal situation of occupying Satu Mare, unless you can bring an official document of the Parliament of Hungary stating that Satu Mare is a teritory of Hungary occupied by Romania and it declares the Treaty of Paris void. This will be the "Hungarian interpretation" that i recognise as Hungarian interpretation -- Criztu 14:19, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
 * My grandfather was 14 year old when he saw the "glorious" romanian army, crossing the Eastern Carpathian Mountains. And he also have heard from his father what he said when the most stupid hungarian prime minister of all times and his ministry of "defense" declared: "I don't want to see soldier anymore" ... the hungarian army numbered around 1.5 million was almost intact, ... wasn't defetead but drawn back from the Italian and southern front lines ... smashed up by the bolshevics afterwards.

The first military convention which made mention of demarcation lines was accepted and signed in Belgrade on November 13, 1918, by the delegates of the Karolyi government and representatives of General D'Esperey. This new Convention among others prescribed a line of demarcation which ran across the whole of south and east Hungary from Beszterce in Eastern Transylvania, southward to the Maros River, west along the Maros through Szabadka. Baja, and Pecs to the Mur River. Though Allied troops were to occupy the region south and east of this line, Hungarian administration was to continue to operate. After November 13, 1918, however, the region was occupied by Serbian and Rumanian troops (Hungary had expected this area to be occupied by troops of the Great Powers). This action greatly alarmed Hungary in view of the territorial claims of Serbia and Romania to the area and the fact that the Hungarian administration was immediately deposed.

 * pls add info on the situation. I only object to formulations like "Satu mare was cut off from its ethnic kinsmen in Hungary" when it is known that Romanian ethnics from Transylvania were equally cut off from their kinsmen in Romania during the Kgdom of Hungary, with a difference: the romanians were prohibited from living in the cities of the Kgdom of Hungary. Also, using sentence "Romania conquered teritory that is now part of Romania" is provocative. Whats wrong with "Satu Mare became part of Romania" ? -- Criztu 07:26, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
 * That formulation is OK to me. That's another reason having two POW ... According to the census of 1910 Satu Mare had a population of 45,000, out of which 94.5% were Magyars. Etnic borders in general have nothing to do with countries borders. Doesn't matter if the HU-Ro border is near Predeal or Satu Mare, the etnic boundary in 1920 was east of Satu Mare, Carei, Oradea. Just take a look over an etnic map. Romanian colonies -Ianculesti, Lucãceni, Marna Nouã, Horea, Scãrisoara Nouã- were planted near the Ro-Hu border after 1920. (The peoples living in that regions called them even today colonies! They were settled from the Maramures, Salaj, Apuseni region). A clear policy by Romania to change the etnic composition of those areas.
 * The romanians were prohibited from living in cities?? Nonsense... just an urban legend. --fz22 06:27, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Interesting discussion, gentlemen. Fz22 is right, the ethnic boundary was east of Satu Mare - I don't intend to be offensive, but - deep in your heart - don't you admit, Criztu, that it (I mean this new border) was not the optimum solution? You are right in stating that Romanians in Transylvania had the right of self-determination - but why on Earth these poor guys in Satu Mare were not given the same rights? They were "cut off" - and if railways, etc were a bit far west, then say, Debrecen would have been cut off as well. It is history now, but I think the POV of Fz22 is justified here. Vay 04:34, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Self determination? You're kiding me. Maybe you don't know, but there was so called Romanian Memorandum adressed to the Entente's representitives about the etnic composition of the teritories claimed by Romanians. These areas were as folow: historical Transilvania, Satu Mare, Bihor, Arad, Csanad, Maramures, Ugocsa, Bekes counties. The Banat region was not included in accordance of the agenda prescribed by the committee. Banat was a separate "game" played with the Serbians. In 1910 there were 2,346,478 Romanians, 2,012,090 Magyars and 322,383 Germans out of a total of 4,854,397. Sorry to say that, but the Romanian delegation members simply falsified these datas to be more suitable for their purpose. Thus they got 1,664,986 Magyars, 295,133 Germans and of course 2,519,215 Romanians. Ordinary arithmetics ... So much for the self determination--fz22 06:40, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

WWII question: as you can see for you the city was recovered, but occupied for me. As a matter of fact let me remind you the city was part of the Hungarian Kingdom for over 700 year, 260 was under habsburg occupation and 22 year under Romanian rule ... Thinking we are in 1944. Thank's a million.--fz22 07:01, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

 * The Treaty of Trianon recognised the sovereignty of Romania over Satu Mare. Signed by Hungary. Signed by Romania, signed by France, Germany, etc.
 * agree with you

 * The Vienna Award placed Satu Mare under Hungary's control. Not signed by Romania (actualy not sure if ROmania didnt sign). Signed by Germany and Hungary and Italy.
 * Of course she signed it. Romania (threaten by Hungary) was who asking Axis power to be their adjudicator.

 * The Paris Treaty rendered the Vienna Award void. Signed by Hungary, signed by Romania, France, Germany etc.
 * Sure, but an international threaty is not only meant to settle the new/former borders ... The citizenship question, recompansation are also included into a treaty.
 * You can consider Wikipedia an encyclopedia that holds the truth that the UN and other International legal bodies are trying to hide and things like that. But I consider Wikipedia a reflection of what UN and International legal bodies currently consider as legal Treaties. That Satu Mare was not occupied but "became part of Romania" in 1919, and that Romania didn't occupy Satu Mare after WW2, but recovered it -- Criztu 12:50, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Until a new international treaty will render the Paris Treaty void, the situation is "Romania recovered Satu Mare at the end of WW2 -- Criztu 09:31, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

Mayor's name
I've corrected to hungarian orthography ... His name was change from Gyula to Iuliu involuntary, like many others name during Ceausescu era ... Emanuil Gojdu's name was also changed to Gozsdu Mano, but nobody in Romania use this form ...

 * See http://www.satu-mare.ro/persoane/ilyes.html.en. In the english version of the mayor's office website, it's Iuliu. :D --Mihai -talk 18:53, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

One question and the only two possible answers for it: Which country belongs now this town? if that country is Hungary then the Hungarian interpretation should be the valid one. If it's Romania then the Romanian interpretation should remain on wikipedia.

 * The previous phrase has no meaning. The rule for names is to use that one which the person and the media uses. Just google for "Gyula Ilyes" (excuse my Hungarian), you will find there's almost no mention of it.--Luci_Sandor (talk, contribs) [[Image:Flag of Europe.svg|20px]] [[Image:Flag of New Jersey.svg|20px]] 19:49, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

 * The Hungarians put their family name first, so you should be searching for "Ilyes Gyula", but yes, there are fewer results than for "Iuliu Ilyes". bogdan 20:02, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

 * The name of the mayor is Iuliu Ilyes, not Gyula Ilyes. The website of the city gives the name Iuliu Ilyes in the Romanian, German and English versions (I haven't checked Hungarian). Thus, Gyula Ilyes is incorrect in the infobox. [[Image:Flag of Europe.svg|20px]][[Image:Flag of Romania.svg|20px]] Ronline ✉ 02:05, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

History section (It is forbidden to mention the unification of Transylvania with Romania?)
About this edit : What is the problem about mentioning facts (Unification of Transylvania with Romania) ? I qutoe: ''This is a not a neutral but a specifically ethnic related POV. Would it have become without the Romanian military invasion of Transylvania in 1918?'' - This is an encyclopedia not a "scenario checker" (What would be if it this would`t happen). We should write facts only, not how some of us see this event. Adrian (talk) 17:18, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think there's much ambiguity over what happened: Transylvanian Romanians voted to join the Kingdom of Romania, which promptly sent in troops and began setting up an administrative apparatus — in December 1918. These are the facts on the ground, acknowledged, I might add, by the Allies, who set up a line of demarcation between Transylvania and Hungary — in November 1918. In no way did Hungary control Transylvania beyond this date. De facto, it became Romanian in 1918. De jure, all doubt ended at Trianon in 1920, but there was never any question of Hungary holding sway until that time. Indeed, let us not forget that during the previous year, Romania controlled much of Hungary! Given this, our articles should speak of Transylvanian localities as having joined Romania in 1918, not 1920. - Biruitorul Talk 17:52, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I don`t think that the year is the main problem but it seems to be mentioning the unification of Transylvania with Romania (as I said in the tittle of this section).Adrian (talk) 22:10, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

1. Szatmárnémeti / Satu Mare had been controlled by Hungarian forces until March 1919 and Hungarian troops gave it up as a result of the Romanian miltary offensive in spring 1919. This is the fact related to this specific town. 2. It is ironic to think that a then predominantly Hungarian populated town 10 km of the current Hungarian border became part of Romania due to the declaration of the december 1 demonstration and not as a result of the Romanian military offensive approved by the Paris Peace Conference. Its is also hardly believable that Romanian troops invaded Transylvania as a result of the said resolution. In 1916, no such decision had been passed.... 3. I think that neither Romanian national legends, nor Hungarian ones should replace facts and we need not insert national POV here. Rokarudi
 * 1) You are talking about Hungarian–Romanian War of 1919. As Biruitorul said in November 1918 this city after this union was controlled by Romanian forces, what happened afterwards can be written in the history section, but not censoring a part of the Romanian history(unification).
 * 2) What offensive do you think? It is not our to think but to state facts.
 * 3) But this is not any POV, it is just a fact: In 1918, as a result of the Union of Transylvania with Romania, Satu Mare ceased to be part of Austria-Hungary - fact. Don`t mix the war in 1919.
 * 4) By this, you are saying that the unification of Transylvania with Romania never happened(that it was a part of some sort of offensive attack)? Or that it is not worth mentioned? Or it should`t be mentioned? But I guess it is important to say for a village(Chibed) that never had more than 3000 inhabitants to say in detail what administrative part in the Kingdom of Hungary was ? Don`t you think that you are cenzuring a part of the Romanian history that this city also took part in? Adrian (talk) 18:55, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
 * 1.) Szatmárnémeti was controlled by Hungarian forces (Székely division) until the 2.) Romanian offensive started on 15th April 1919. Biruitorul was wrong at this point, so your statement is simply false. I do not understand why you again push an invalid argument instead of checking your facts. The Romanian-Hungarian war of 1919, although not an inappropriate one, is also a Romanian POV expression, as from the Hungarian POV, the country faced intervention of Romanian, Czech, Serbian and French forces at the same time and, Hungarians refer to it as the Romanian or eastern front as part of the intervention of the entente. The "unification" of Transylvania with Romania happened from the Romanian Point of View, but did not happen from the Hungarian Point of View, the latter considering the change in control as occcupation or annexation. As neutral point of view should be implemented, the expression 'unification' is not appropriate here, especially when replacing town specific data. Rokarudi--Rokarudi 08:14, 17 August 2010 (UTC) I suggest improving this section by (1) stating the specific facts regarding the town-spcific events of the process of the change in control and (2) by giving a background which uses encyclopaedic expressions that reflect both Hungarian and Romanian concept as to how the change of souvereinty over Transylvania happened. In this frame even the rocess of unification as one part of the picture may be mentioned. Rokarudi--Rokarudi 08:21, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok. Can you please prove this ? That this city was under Hungarian controle untul 15th April 1919, because we have Union of Transylvania with Romania that states otherwise. About your personal POV (declaring it as the general Hungarian) is irrelevant here, this official event that was recognized in Hungary also (this was the cause of 1919 war) was as the unification not "unification" as some Hungarians might think therefore your arguments here are invalid. If you can`t prove that this city was under Hungarian control until 1919 I will change this in the article according to the events in world and Romanian hisotry. If some users don`t recognize this unification it doesn`t mean that it did`t happen or that it is invalid - NPOV Adrian (talk) 08:32, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * This is unbelievable, for example, if I say that I don`t recognize the Great Hungary and say that is the official Romanian POV (because it is my personal and therefore it must be the official too, and I of course can`t be wrong) then in every instance where we mention this "entity" we must delete it, and find a "compromise" that states some other event, just to avoid mentioning this real state(Kingdom of Hungary) ??? Sorry, but your comment has no sense and again you can`t maintain a NPOV in Romanian-Hungarian matters. Adrian (talk) 08:44, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * As to the frontline on 15/16 April, 1919, see File:Hungarian-Romanian War.de.png that is indicated in the Hungarian-Romanian War article. It will present no difficulty to find that Satu Mare was east of the frontline on 15/16 April, 1919. What is questioned by me is not that Transylvania became part of Romania, but that the process should be refererred to by the term "unification" in a context where others than Romanian readers are given information as the term unification is the Romanian perception of two-sided issue. Whether Kosovo was liberated or occupied, gained independence or seceded is a question of point of view, so we have to be careful in choosing the right term. The term unification also implies what is only valid from the Romanian point of view and this is the problem here. By the way, do you seriously believe that once the Declaration of 1st December, 1918 was declared by the Romanian participants at the mass meeting, and all of a sudden Transylvania became part of Romania? Unification declared, unification made?.Rokarudi--Rokarudi 11:14, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Ok. Let`s state the facts. Now, according to the time line and history this sentence is a fact In 1918, as a result of the Union of Transylvania with Romania, Satu Mare ceased to be part of Austria-Hungary and should be present in the article. I don`t see any problem here, except that you are bothered with this part of Romania`s history (the unification) and personally think that this never happened. Unification was made when the majority of representatives from various Transylvanian cities/places voted for the unification. Adrian (talk) 11:35, 17 August 2010 (UTC) We have this time line as a proof for this, can you please prove otherwise? Adrian (talk) 11:43, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) Austria-Hungary dissolved on October 31, 1918 following military defeat in the First World War.
 * 2) After that the Union of Transylvania with Romania happened, December 1 [O.S. November 18] 1918 by the assembly of the delegates of ethnic Romanians held in Alba Iulia. Where we can see that from this date Transylvania (Satu Mare included) became a part of Romania. About this union there isn`t the "other side". This union as such was recognized and a new border between Romania and Hungary was established. If you take it like that as I said, Romanians don`t recognize the Hungarian rule in Transylvania so we should delete everything about that and to achieve some "compromise" where we can avoid some important facts.
 * 3) As a Hungarian response to this unification the Hungarian–Romanian War of 1919 happened.

Reference not valid
Since you choose to ignore the time-line per assume good faith I will not revert these "changes" yet. About this the reference has 3 problems for now: This page is not credible and if you really want to introduce this you need to find a valid reference. Adrian (talk) 11:18, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

 * 2) The author you claim to be is Béla Köpeczi who seems to be like a credible person but on this web page there is no sign of him but instead it is written by Zoltán Szász who is some unknown person.
 * 3) It is a pro-Hungarian web page where information can`t be trusted.

Sorry, but your comments are wrong again. Please, go to the main page of the referenced book and you will see that: Rokarudi--Rokarudi 12:32, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
 * 1)	The 'ghost web page that you can create in 5 min' belong to the Hungarian Electronic Library which is a on-line section of Országos Széchenyi Könyvtár (National Széchényi Library) being the largest Hungarian public library established by count Ferenc Széchényi in 1802.
 * 2.)	The book is the English version of the 3 volume Erdély Története, one of the most comprehensive handbooks on this subject. Academician Béla Köpeczi was the chief editor while Zoltán Szász wrote the chapter on 1918-1919. He may be unknown for you, otherwise he is renowned historian, see his activity here: . The reference shows only the page where the concrete piece of information can be found.
 * 3.) As per 1.
 * I am not questioning this facility but the connection of this web page with the library. Sorry but Zoltán Szász can`t be taken seriosly and this page about him in Hungarian doesn`t mean anything to a non-Hungarian reader, but Ok. Then I have links1;2;3 that states that Transylvania and Crisana also unified with Romania On the 18th of November 1918 which means that Satu Mare from that date became a part of Romania exactly as the sentence said In 1918, as a result of the Union of Transylvania with Romania, Satu Mare ceased to be part of Austria-Hungary and became part of Romania. as it should be re-introduced to the article as it was. Adrian (talk) 18:23, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

We have to distinguish betweeen promises, declarations, actual control and international recognition. Transylvania was promised for Romania by the Entente for its entering the war in 1916. Romania confirmed its borders with Austria-Hungary in the Bucharest Treaty. (promises) The Romanians of Transylvania declared their intention to join Romania, while Hungarians to preserve the territorial integrity of Hungary. The Romanian government declared Transylvania to belong to Romania, while the Hungarian government insisted on that the territorial integrity of Hungary is not given up (declarations). The Romanian army - step by step - got the area concerned under his control between December 1918 and April 1919. (actual control), Treaty of Trianon - (international recognition). I understand that in the perception of many Romanians, a Romanian territory simply joins Romania, so it must be the result of unification and not that of military occupation or decision of great powers but this is an encyclopedia, so we are looking for a neutral POV to the extent it is possible in such issues. Internationally, the territory became part of Romania in 1920, while the actual control was acquired when Romanian army occupied it, for the satisfaction of Romanian population. The intentions of the national communities of Transylvania was an important political factor not directly decisive. Rokarudi --Rokarudi 21:35, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

 * And what about this source ? It states, for example, that in 1880 only 5% of the population was Romanian and 88.8% Hungarian. If the table to be refined, it should be done based on other reliable sources, such as the one I have just cited. K œrte F  a   { ταλκ }  18:21, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Regarding your source, Keortefa, it seems interesting but I've noticed that the 1930 census data are wrong. They do not match the official census data which are available. I wouldn't want to generalize, but many some Hungarian sources tend to distort the actual data (that doesn't mean all of them). This one might be the "distorting" type because the cesus of december 1930 is well-recorded.

Also the current table contains wrong data for 1930. What should we do about this? Here is the real data: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ro/a/a0/Satmar1930pop1-1.jpg So the table contains this info: 1930 - 53,010 total population, with Romanians 28.9% and Hungarians 57.1%, while the offical data is Municipality (=city) of Satu Mare: total - 51495, Romanians 16251 (=31,6%) and 21916 (=42,6% rounded up!). To me, it seems yet again that the some Hungarian-ethnicity editors have a "not-so-well-hidden" agenda of messing with history and population data on all the wikis (believe me, I know what I'm talking). Now who is going to correct the table? The table citation is a website which actually contains only tables and doesn't indicate any source. How can we check the other data? Should the table remain there? -Paul- (talk) 12:28, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Have you at least read my source? The current source is just a website which mentions as source the author, but doesn't mention any source. This data is unverifiable, while my data is from a clear source (and hungarian too). -Paul- (talk) 09:14, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Paul, if you claim that the (referenced) data is wrong, then bring the correct data with a different reference, not remove what we have. bogdan (talk) 18:29, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't understand. I've already brought the correct data in the Wrong Demographics section above (above means scroll up!) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Satu_Mare#Wrong_demographics_.3F

Here it is again: Seemingly nobody seems to reply about the wrong data. Please see full text I was mentioning, below: "In terms of Hungarian native speakers, between 1880 and 1910 the population gain above their natural growth in the region was between 180 and 200 thousand, while Romanian losses were between 130 and 150 thousand, depending on whether we take the birth rate figures of the last decade as retrospectively relevant, or calculate with the more balanced earlier figures for nationality growth. The Romanian losses were mostly due to emigration, which increased dramatically in the 1980s, especially in southern counties of historical Transylvania and became a mass movement at the beginning of the twentieth century. Hungarian population gains, on the other hand, included a migration surplus. However, the exact value of this cannot be determined, since we are unable to give a balance of internal population exchanges between administrative units with respect to the present borders. Nevertheless, the attraction of certain central points giving rise to migration among regions is well known. In Krassó-Szörény/Caraş-Severin and Hunyad/Hunedoara counties, where natural population growth was originally low, mining areas and rapidly developing industrial centres attracted Hungarians from a distance. Thus, in three decades their number multiplied between 4.7 and 4.2 times. The proportion of Hungarians therefore increased from 1.9 per cent to 7.2 per cent, and from 5.1 to 15.5 per cent for the two areas respectively. A massive increase can be seen in certain areas of Temes/Timiş and Torontál counties (the number of Hungarians increased 2.5 times, their proportion growing from 8 per cent to 16.6 per cent). In Arad county, where the increase in proportions was average, the number of Hungarians also grew rapidly (the figure in 1910 is 1.8 times higher than in 1880, with their proportion rising from 22.3 per cent to 29 per cent). Similar data are available in Kolozs/Cluj county (1.7 times higher with the proportion increasing from 33.2 to 38.9 per cent); in Szatmár/Satu Mare and Ugocsa/Ugocea (where the proportion increased from 44.4 to 55.1 per cent); and in the Bihar (Bihor) area, where the proportion of Hungarians rose from 39.8 to 44.4 per cent in spite of the high birth rate among local Romanians. The rise in the number of Hungarian native speakers in Máramaros/Maramureş also deserves attention: the number of Hungarian native speakers here increased 2.1 times over thirty years, and the proportion grew by 5 per cent to reach 19.4 per cent in 1910. At the same time, the serious local economic and social crisis in Szeklerland is well demonstrated by the fact that here, in the smaller language area of the eastern periphery of the country, in Csík, Háromszék and Udvarhely counties, the population increase among Hungarians fell far behind even the Transylvanian average because of losses resulting from migration." The above text can be seen on this page: http://www.kia.hu/konyvtar/erdely/erdang.htm, Hungarians in Transylvania between 1870 and 1995, Original title: "Erdély magyar népessége 1870-1995 között", Published in Magyar Kisebbség 3-4, 1998 (New series IV), pp. 331-407, Translation by Tamás Sályi, Linguistic editing by Rachel Orbell, Published by Teleki László Foundation. Budapest, March 1999

The text clearly states that in Szatmár/Satu Mare, the proportion of Hungarians was 44.4 in 1880 and 55.1% in 1910. Unfortunately the other digits cannot be verified. The strangest thing is that the author is the same as the indicated (and unverifiable) source of the table. The initial table lists as source a website which actually does not lists its source and could be very well fabricated data. I am removing the table and inserting the only verifiable information according to the text above. -Paul- (talk) 09:09, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I must stand corrected - my reference, in that paragraph, is about Satu Mare county, not city. I will correct the information in the article and I think it should remain there because it is interesting to notice that, although the proportion of Romanian speaking population in the city of Satu Mare was of 7,95 and 6,3% in 1880 and 1910 respectively, the Romanian population in the area (the whole county) was in a quite larger percentage, of 44.4% in 1880 and 55.1% in 1910. -Paul- (talk) 09:48, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I am messing Romanians and Hungarians the other way I know - I've corrected in the article too. The 44.4% in 1880 and 55.1% are Hungarian speakers in the county. -Paul- (talk) 10:07, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Demographics based on nationality or language?
The "Historical population of Satu Mare" table contains some questionable data. I have managed to identify the source of error: the census for some of the years including 1930 were recorded based on both "native language" and nationality. The a and n letters after the years (1930a and 1930n) in the cited source mean Anyanyelv and Nemzetiség (language vs nationality), concepts also explained in the abstract of this article. Nevertheless, the contributor who inserted the table decided to handpick the most convenient set of data- that based of declared native language, instead of declared nationality. Amost 10'000 (ten thousand) Romanians declared Romanian nationality of Hungarian language (possible result of the half a century of Magyarization): year  total    romanian hungarian 1930a 53010    15372    30380      / by language 1930n 53010    17679    21940      /by nationality -Paul- (talk) 13:08, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Inconsistency in climate section?
In the Climate section, there is this sentence: "As the city is in the far north of the country, winter is much colder than the national average, with an average temperature of −17 °C (1 °F), lower than values recorded in other cities in western Romania like Oradea (−15 °C (5 °F)) or Timișoara (−17 °C (1 °F))."

The section then says Satu Mare's climate has a Cfb classification, which appears to rule out a winter average temperature of −17 °C (because the coldest month in a location with Cfb climate is not supposed to have an average less than −3 °C). The climate table also confirms this, with winter average low temperatures well above −17 °C.

I note that the source does mention the temperature −17 °C, but for the above reason, it seems implausible that this is the average winter temperature.

It therefore looks like there is a self-contradiction in this section - can someone figure out how it gets resolved? 67.87.19.22 (talk) 04:12, 17 August 2014 (UTC)

"Gara Ferastrau"?
First of all, the name of the railway station has been changed decades ago to "Satu Mare Sud". Second, the station's name was never "Ferastrau". It was "Ferestrau". I'm aware that in the current Romanian language the right form for "saw" is "ferastrau" but this is not about the language, we're talking about a name. A very old one.

Names don't follow rules. If one's I.D. holds the name "Adholph", that's his name regardless of any rule.

Near the station there is still a street called Strada Garii Ferestrau.

The name was used because next to the station there was a big lumber mill with a steam powered saw. In fact, the large volume of the wood handled by the lumber mill was the reason why a railway station was built there.Srelu (talk) 23:33, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

Does Satu Mare lie in the Maramures region?
Hello!

I'm confused about this matter, so I thought I'd start a discussion. There is a number of maps depicting the Maramures region in both Maramures and Satu Mare counties, like these:, 2, 3. However, others show a separate region in the area, called "Satmar" or "Satu Mare": 4,,.

Obviously, neither of these maps can be considered a source which provides the answer. But those different looking maps can be misleading and confusing, so I thought we'd discuss this. On the Maramureș article, the region, as depicted on, does not include the Satu Mare area. If we presume that the historical Maramures is based on the Hungarian Máramaros County, then Satu Mare is also not included, having been part of the Szatmár county.

So, if Satu Mare is not part of Maramures, but also not of Crisana, what is it then? Romania is traditionally divided in its 9 subregions; every part of the country is also part of one of said regions. You do hear the expression "Banat, Crisana and Maramures", but not "Banat, Crisana, Satmar and Maramures". Any opinions? Lupishor (talk) 20:43, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
 * It is a matter of the opinion. For me, Maramureș is just what the Hungarian county covered, and Satu Mare is in Crișana. But some will say that it is part of Maramureș and others will say that it is part of Sătmar. I would avoid using Sătmar as a separate region from Crișana but we probably shouldn't chose between Crișana and Maramureș, but just say Satu Mare may be considered part of both regions. Super   Ψ   Dro  22:37, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Well, according to the Crișana article, the region's northern border is the Someș river, which goes through Satu Mare. Thus, about half of the city is, indeed, in Crișana. But what about the other half? If you consider Maramureș to be only made up of the Hungarian county's land, then it means that there still is a piece of territory between Crișana and Maramureș. Lupishor (talk) 23:37, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
 * If we took that river as the border of Crișana, I would include the other half of Satu Mare in Maramureș. It is better to avoid using Sătmar as a separate region from both. Although it's still a Crișanan city to me. I always though of Crișana as everything between the Carpathians and the border with Hungary (or the Tisza) that isn't Transylvania, Banat or Maramureș. The fact that there are no sources discussing something like this leaves this issue to the users' interpretation. I would use "Satu Mare [...] may br included in the regions of Crișana, Maramureș, or both" in the lead and "Crișana/Maramureș" in the infobox. Super   Ψ   Dro  09:11, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

Dharma Bums (band)

The Dharma Bums were a U.S. garage band, consisting of Jim Talstra, John Moen, Jeremy Wilson, and Eric Lovre. They named themselves after the Jack Kerouac book The Dharma Bums.

The band was formed in 1987 in Portland, Oregon, United States, by members of two local bands, The Watchmen and Perfect Circle (no connection with the later bands The Watchmen or A Perfect Circle). Their first album, Haywire, was produced by Scott McCaughey (lead singer of the Young Fresh Fellows) and recorded for the PopLlama label in 1989. McCaughey later played their debut to Frontier Records boss Lisa Fancher, who was impressed enough to re-release the album. One of the tracks, "Boots of Leather", proved to be an enduring college radio hit.

In 1990 the more polished album Bliss was released on Frontier Records. Featuring greatly improved songwriting, this release covered subjects including rape, adolescence, and suicide in a mature fashion built on ragged rock textures. Dharma Bums released their third and final album Welcome in 1992 and then disbanded. Wilson went on to form the alt-rock band Pilot.

Many in the local Portland scene had expected the Dharma Bums to be a breakthrough alternative rock act of the Northwest music scene. Some biographers, such as Melissa Rossi, author of Courtney Love: Queen of Noise, and Poppy Z Brite, author of Courtney Love: The Real Story, write that Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain first met each other at a Dharma Bums concert in Portland — when Nirvana served as the opening act. In an interview with Fuse TV posted on YouTube on March 11, 2012, Courtney Love herself says, "I met (Kurt) in 1988 at a Dharma Bums show."

Virtual Bart

Virtual Bart is a video game developed by Sculptured Software and published by Acclaim Entertainment. It was released for the Super NES and Genesis in 1994. It is a game based on the American animated television series The Simpsons and features Bart Simpson and other Simpsons characters.

The official guide to the game (Virtual Bart Official Game Secrets, Prima Publishing, 1995; re-published by the author, 2019) was written by Steve Schwartz. Although originally slated to be a guide to all Simpsons games, it took over a year to obtain the necessary permissions, limiting its coverage to only Virtual Bart.

Gameplay

Virtual Bart consists of several minigames, similar to Bart's Nightmare. Unlike Bart's Nightmare, the game does not feature a hub world and each stage is selected randomly using a spinning roulette wheel. Gameplay for Dino Bart, Baby Bart, and Pig Bart consists of platforming, while Class Picture, Mount Splashmore, and Doomsday Bart consist of different play styles.

All stages feature a time limit. If the time runs out, the player loses a life. Additionally, all stages except for Class Picture feature a health bar, which decreases every time Bart gets hit. Several stages feature corn dogs that restore Bart's health, as well as extra lives.

Once a stage is completed, it cannot be repeated; if the wheel lands on an already-completed stage, it will continue spinning slowly to the nearest remaining stage panel. If the wheel lands on the skull or corn dog panel (which quickly alternates between showing each item), the player will lose or gain a life, respectively.

If the player fails a stage, they lose one life and are taken back to the roulette wheel. Failure when the player has no extra lives prematurely ends the game. Otherwise, the game ends after all stages are cleared.

The game consists of six different stages:

 * Dino Bart: Bart is a dinosaur and runs across a primitive Springfield, and rampages throughout mountains while defeating several primitive humans that resemble Simpsons characters. Bart attacks with his tail and can roar, defeating all enemies on screen after picking up certain items. If the stage is completed, a prehistoric Homer is seen frozen in a present-day museum.
 * Baby Bart: A baby Bart follows a moving ice cream truck by escaping his home and swings his way out of his home, ending up in his local street way, and eventually a circus. Bart can use his diaper as a parachute to slow his fall while airborne, and can use his pacifier as a projectile. If the stage is completed, Bart enters the ice cream truck, with a younger Homer chasing him.
 * Pig Bart: Bart is a pig who has been captured and taken to Krusty's Pork Factory, but manages to escape, and sets off to free the captured pigs. Bart can only walk and jump, and must switch levers to free captured pigs. If the stage is completed, the pigs escape and Bart is hailed as a hero by the pigs.
 * Class Picture: Bart intends to ruin his school's Picture Day shooting by throwing tomatoes at all of his classmates. After he succeeds, the school schedules a reshoot, which Bart intends to ruin by throwing eggs at his classmates. Bart must throw tomatoes and eggs at his classmates in a 3D field. Bart has a limited number of projectiles, and if he runs out of tomatoes or eggs, or if any adult characters are hit, the player fails the stage. There are 2 rounds. If Bart succeeds, Bart will be the only student not to have been splatted in the photo shoot.
 * Mount Splashmore: Bart enters the Mount Splashmore water slide and must make it down safely. The stage is played from a forward-facing view, centered behind Bart. Bart must avoid obstacles and make it down to the end of the slide before time runs out. There are several forks in the slide's path. Choosing the wrong path either leads to a stuck Homer, which wastes time and sends Bart back up to the fork; or to an early exit that instantly kills him. Several power-ups appear, such as a clock that adds extra time and a surfboard that grants temporary invulnerability. If Bart manages to reach the end, he will exit the slide, splashing Sherri and Terri.
 * Doomsday Bart: An explosion at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant causes Springfield to become an apocalyptic wasteland. Bart must make his way to the Springfield entrance on his motorcycle while avoiding Jimbo and Kearney. The level plays in a 3D view, where Bart drives along a road while avoiding the two bullies' attacks. Bart can attack and can speed up his motorcycle. Passing a checkpoint extends time. If the stage is completed, Bart makes it to his house in time to watch The Krusty the Clown Show.

Plot
At a science fair, Martin Prince presents a virtual reality device that displays six educational exhibitions. However, Bart causes the device to malfunction and gets trapped in it. Bart must complete the six programs to escape the machine.

If Bart successfully completes every stage, he escapes from the device. Homer then enters the malfunctioning device, which explodes shortly thereafter. If the player gets a Game Over, the system "hangs" and the real Bart is trapped inside the device.

Reception
Electronic Gaming Monthly scored the Super NES version a 4.8 out of 10, commenting that "The control is awful (like on the dinosaur stage), the stages unappealing, and the whole thing seems rushed."

Reviewing the Genesis port, GamePro praised it as being "[virtually] identical" to the SNES original. They commented of the game itself that "The humorous variations on Bart, different game play (including behind-the-Bart racing and a shooter level), and cameos of Simpsons nitwits all combine to keep the action intriguing and funny."

Please stop adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you were just trying to experiment, then use the sandbox instead. Thank you. --W(t) 07:27, 2005 Jun 7 (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 Makong. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Makong~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.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 01:16, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
