CHLT-DT

CHLT-DT, virtual and VHF digital channel 7, is a TVA owned-and-operated television station licensed to Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada. The station is owned by the Groupe TVA subsidiary of Quebecor Media. CHLT-DT's studios are located on Rue King Ouest (near Route 112) in Sherbrooke, and its transmitter is located in Orford. This station can also be seen on Vidéotron channel 4 and in high definition on digital channel 604.

History
The station went on the air for the first time on August 12, 1956. It was owned by La Tribune, the city's major newspaper, along with CHLT radio. Like most television stations in Quebec, it was a dual affiliate of both CBC and Radio-Canada. It usually went on the air sooner than other Quebec stations, forcing it to fill the schedule with local shows. La Tribune was eventually acquired by Power Corporation of Canada, which sold CHLT to Telemedia in 1968.

When CKSH-TV went on the air on September 19, 1974, it took all Radio-Canada programming away from CHLT. Sherbrooke's anglophone population was too small for CHLT to be viable as a privately owned CBC Television affiliate. As a result, it joined TVA that same day after CBMT in Montreal opened a translator in Sherbrooke. Five years later, Pathonic Communications acquired CHLT and four other stations from Telemedia, forming a network which from 1986–1990 was branded as Réseau Pathonic.

Pathonic's stations often aired a schedule different from that offered on TVA flagship station CFTM-TV in Montreal. As a result, since CHLT's over-the-air signal reaches Montreal, it was also carried on CF Cable and Vidéotron's Montreal-area systems. For most of the late 1980s, CHLT claimed Montreal as part of its primary coverage area, even though Télé-Metropole, owner of CFTM, held a minority stake in Réseau Pathonic. However, in 1990, Télé-Metropole bought Pathonic and took full control of TVA. Since then, CHLT has basically functioned as a semi-satellite of CFTM, except for newscasts and commercials. CF Cable stopped carrying CHLT in the early 1990s, and Vidéotron followed suit in 1995.

For most of the time from the 1980s through the early 2000s, it was known on-air as "Télé-7" (TV-7 or channel 7), sharing a similar branding with sister station CFCM-TV in Quebec City.

During the analogue era, CHLT was one of TVA's most powerful stations; its terrestrial footprint extended as far as northwestern Maine. Also, as with CKSH-DT, CHLT enjoys cable coverage throughout selected areas of Northern New England, as far east as Augusta and Rockland, Maine.

William James Stillman

William James Stillman (June 1, 1828 – July 6, 1901) was an American journalist, diplomat, author, historian, and photographer. Educated as an artist, Stillman subsequently converted to the profession of journalism, working primarily as a war correspondent in Crete and the Balkans, where he served as his own photographer. For a time, he also served as United States consul in Rome, and afterward in Crete during the Cretan insurrections. He helped to train the young Arthur Evans as a war correspondent in the Balkans, and remained a lifelong friend and confidant of Evans. Later in life, he seriously considered taking over the excavation at Knossos from Minos Kalokairinos, who had been stopped from further excavation by the Cretan Assembly; he was, however, prevented from pursuing that goal further by a failure to obtain a firman, or permission, to excavate. Stillman wrote several books, one of which, his Autobiography of a Journalist, suggests that he viewed himself primarily as a writer.

Biography
Stillman was born in Schenectady, New York, in 1828. His parents were Seventh Day Baptists, and his early religious training influenced him throughout his life. He was sent to school in New York by his mother, who made great sacrifices so that he might get an education, and he graduated from Union College of Schenectady in 1848. Deciding at that time to pursue a career in art, he was one of the first students of the eminent Hudson River School painter Frederic Edwin Church, then fresh from his own studies with Thomas Cole and setting out on a career that would see him become the most famous (and financially successful) artist in America. Stillman had a contentious relationship with Church but picked up skills in the art of oil on canvas that would serve him well in the small but accomplished group of paintings by his hand that have survived, including, most famously, The Philosopher's Camp (Concord, MA Public Library). In 1850, Stillman traveled to England, where he made the acquaintance of John Ruskin, whose Modern Painters he had devoured; was introduced to J. M. W. Turner, for whose works he had unbounded admiration; and fell so profoundly under the influence of Dante Gabriel Rossetti and John Everett Millais that on his return home in the same year he became known as the "American Pre-Raphaelite." While Stillman had modest success as a painter and photographer, with far more productivity and innovation in the latter medium, his most lasting contribution to the arts in America was the founding of the periodical The Crayon directly under the influence of Ruskin. This publication had wide influence in his lifetime and since.

In 1852 Lajos Kossuth sent him on a fool's errand to Hungary to dig up crown jewels, which had been buried secretly during the insurrection of 1848–1849. While he was awaiting a projected rising in Milan, Stillman studied art under Yvon in Paris, and then, as the rising did not take place, he returned to the United States and devoted himself to landscape painting on Upper Saranac Lake in the Adirondacks and in New York City, where he started the Crayon. It numbered Lowell, Aldrich and Charles Eliot Norton among its contributors, and when it failed for want of funds, Stillman removed to Cambridge, Massachusetts.

There he passed several years, but a fit of restlessness started him off once more to England. He renewed his friendship with Ruskin, and went with him to Switzerland to paint and draw in the Alps, where he worked so assiduously that his eyesight was affected. He then lived in Paris and was in Normandy in 1861 when the American Civil War broke out. He made more than one attempt to serve in the Northern ranks, but his health was too weak; in the same year he was appointed United States consul in Rome.

In 1865 a dispute with his government led to his resignation, but immediately afterwards he was appointed to Crete, where, as an avowed champion of the Christians in the island and of Cretan independence, he was regarded with hostility both by the Muslim population and by the Turkish authorities during the subsequent Cretan uprising. In September 1868 he resigned and went to Athens, where his first wife (a daughter of David Mack of Cambridge), worn out by the excitement of life in Crete, committed suicide.

He was an editor of Scribner's Magazine for a short time and then went to London, where he lived with Dante Gabriel Rossetti. In 1871 he married artist Marie Spartali, a second generation Pre-Raphaelite painter, and a daughter of the Greek consul-general Michael Spartali, although without his permission. When the insurrection of 1875 broke out in Herzegovina he went there as a correspondent of The Times, and his letters from the Balkans aroused so much interest that the British government was induced to lend its countenance to Montenegrin aspirations.

In 1877–1883 he served as the correspondent of The Times at Athens; in 1886–1898 at Rome. During this time he was assisted in his photographic work by the nascent archaeologist and photographer, John Henry Haynes. He was a severe critic of Italian statesmen, and embroiled himself at various times with various politicians, from Crispi downwards.

After his retirement he lived in Surrey, England, where he died on July 6, 1901, at Frimley Green.

Publications
He wrote The Cretan Insurrection of 1866–1868 (1874), "The Amateur's Photographic Guide Book" (1874) On the Track of Ulysses (1888), Billy and Hans (1897), "The Old Rome and the New" (1898), The Union of Italy, 1815–1895 (1898), and Francesco Crispi (1899).

Criticism and legacy
Recent critics such as Andrew Szegedy-Maszak (in Antiquity and Photography, Getty Museum, 2005) have argued that Stillman's photography, especially an album of views of the Athenian Acropolis, displayed an artistic sensibility and a genius of a higher order than the rest of his work. The first series was photographed in 1869 and privately published in 1870; Stillman rephotographed the Acropolis in 1882 and subsequently reordered the combined series in a second album. Stillman's photographs, in their daring perspectives, in their creative synthesis (inspired by Ruskinian ideas) of aesthetic feeling and a scientific/scholarly perspective on architectural form, and in their incorporation of the Greek landscape and the modern Greek context of ancient ruins, show a startlingly modern sensibility for their time, a way of seeing utterly different from the commercial photography of contemporary Greeks and foreigners, whose representations tended to cater to the set expectations of the foreign philhellenic and touristic market.

Makaikhola

Makaikhola मकैखोला is a village about 26 kilometers northeast of Pokhara, Nepal.

The village spreads on either side of a small stream "kamdi khola". Paudel gaun also called Kamdi is on east and subedi gau is on the west of the stream. Literacy rate is over 70% while the unemployment rates are around 50% and those living in the village are mainly into agriculture. Because of this, for the last few years, the young population has been migrating to cities and foreign lands in haunt of jobs and new opportunities.

The village is now connected to the national network of roads via a dirt road. Residents now have access to electricity and telephone services as well. There is no hospital or health post in the village.

Janakalyan higher secondary school is the only high school situated in the village and serves as an educational central for surrounding villages as well.

New International (magazine)

The New International is a magazine of Marxist theory published first by the Socialist Workers Party of the United States (SWP) from 1934 to 1940, then by the Workers Party from 1940 to 1958, and then revived by the SWP since 1983.

Current format
Since the magazine's resumption in 1983, The New International has included articles written by leaders of the 'Pathfinder tendency' which left the Fourth International in the 1980s. Content focuses on speeches and resolutions of the SWP's biannual conference, and archival documents by Bolshevik and Castroist communists. It is now published roughly once every two years.

The magazine's last publication (online) was a 2008 issue with a covers story entitled "Revolution, Internationalism, and Socialism: The Last Year of Malcolm X" by Jack Barnes. Other articles were: "The Clintons' Antilabor Legacy: Roots of the 2008 World Financial Crisis", "The Stewardship of Nature Also Falls to the Working Class", and "Setting the Record Straight on Fascism and World War II: Building a World Federation of Democratic Youth that Fights Imperialism and War".

History
Martin Abern and Max Shachtman founded the magazine in 1934.

When Shachtman and his associates split from the SWP to form the Workers Party in 1940, they brought the journal to the new organization: an action regarded by the SWP as theft. The SWP replaced New International with Fourth International, later called International Socialist Review.

The New International Publishing Company published the magazine from 1934 to 1958 as "a monthly organ of revolutionary Marxism." From 1934 to 1949, it published monthly. Publication suspended from July 1936 to December 1937 and also in Jan. 1940. In this period, publishers changed several times:
 * January 1935 - June 1936: Workers Party of the U.S.
 * January 1938 - April 1940: Socialist Workers Party
 * May 1940 - May 1949: Workers Party of the U.S.
 * May 1949 - Spring/Summer 1958: Independent Socialist League

In the September–October 1952 issue, the major advertiser was the Labor Action Book Service (named after the ISL's newspaper).

The New International was discontinued around the time that the Shachtmanites entered the Socialist Party of America in 1958.

In 1983, the SWP refounded the magazine in co-operation with the Revolutionary Workers League in Canada.

Editors and contributors
The magazine's current editors are Mary-Alice Waters, Steve Clark and Jack Barnes. Assisting them are seven international consultants.

The original editors in 1934 were the magazines founders, Martin Abern and Max Shachtman.

In its initial period (1934–1958), the magazine's editors (or editorial board in the absence of listed editors) were:
 * July 1934 to December 1934: Max Shachtman
 * January 1935 to June 1936: Max Shachtman and John West (James Burnham)
 * January 1938 to March 1939:  board of James Burnham, Max Shachtman, and Maurice Spector
 * April 1939 to March 1940: board James Burnham and Max Shachtman
 * May 1940 to September 1941: Max Shachtman
 * Oct. 1941 to June 1943: Albert Gates (Albert Glotzer)
 * July 1943 to August 1945: Max Shachtman
 * September 1945 to May 1946: Ernest Erber (sometimes Shachtman as “editor”)
 * August 1947 to December 1947: Albert Gates (Albert Glotzer)
 * January 1948 to March 1949: Hal Draper
 * April 1949 to December 1949: Max Shachtman
 * January–February 1950 to January–February 1953: Emmanuel Garrett (Shachtman as “formal editor”)
 * March–April 1952 to 1958: Julius Falk as managing editor (Shachtman as “editor”)

The September–October 1952 issue lists Shachtman as editor and Julius Falk as managing editor. Contributors include: Gordon Haskell, G. Zinoviev, and Albert Gates (Albert Glotzer). Forthcoming issues would have contributions from Ben Hall, Shachtman, and Zinoviev.

Talk:René II, Duke of Lorraine

Untitled
It seems from contemporary materials that Rene himself was regarded as having succeeded his grabdfather as titular king. In those days, females were somewhat lesser beings. Thus, husband or son became king, if a woman inherited, in principle. In this case, it is highly likely that 1480-83, Yolande and Rene were seen as co-queen and co-king. 62.78.124.145 17:47, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Well, as I understand the theory, a heiress would usually have some male acting as her "representative". So for instance, a man marrying the heiress of some County would become Count "jure uxoris"; his wife was acknowledged as being Countess "in her own right", but it was her husband who actually ran the County. If she was widowed with a son, then her son would be Count, etc. "in right of his mother"; so she was recognized as being the heiress, but power was exercised by a man (and if he died, it would return to her until there was another male to exercise it, which was usually soon). Choess 18:16, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * It's rather unclear, though - for instance, neither Empress Matilda nor Margaret Beaufort was considered to be Queen, although Henry II and Henry VII, respectively, claimed their thrones through right of their still-living mother. At any rate, this succession table which has been introduced is insane.  While the nature of his claims to Naples should be mentioned in the text, I don't see a reason for the succession table to have anything besides Duke of Lorraine on it. john k 21:39, 9 July 2005 (UTC)

 * I can see removing the titular claims (Duke of Calabria should be titular, too), but Bar, Pont-a-Mousson, Vaudemont, Guise, and Aumale/Harcourt were all part of his lands, AFAIK. Do we have any style guidelines for these succession boxes? "Not insane" is a good guideline, but rather subjective... Choess 22:12, July 9, 2005 (UTC)

A. G. Macdonell

Archibald Gordon Macdonell (3 November 1895 – 16 January 1941) was a Scottish writer, journalist and broadcaster, whose most famous work is the gently satirical novel England, Their England (1933).

Early life and education
Macdonell was born in Poona, India to a Scottish family, the younger son of William Robert Macdonell, LL.D, an East India merchant and chairman of the Bombay chamber of commerce, and Alice Elizabeth, daughter of miller and art collector John Forbes White, who had trained as a doctor. The family subsequently lived in Aberdeen. His father was "a prominent personality" in Bombay, and "a devoted student of literature and the arts" who corresponded with the novelist George Gissing; his mother's sister, Rachel White, was a distinguished Newnham College, Cambridge-educated classical scholar and one of the earliest female teachers of the subject.

Macdonell was educated at Winchester where he excelled academically and at sports, representing the school at association football and golf.

Career
During World War I, he served for two years as a lieutenant of the Royal Field Artillery before being invalided out of the army, possibly because of shell shock (Lieutenant Cameron, the protagonist of England, Their England is sent home for that reason). The war had a profound effect on him, as it did with so many of his generation. Afterwards he spent two years in eastern Europe, firstly on the reconstruction of Poland, and then on famine relief in Russia. In 1922 he joined the staff of the League of Nations where he spent five years. Politically, he was a supporter of the Liberal Party. During 1923 and 1924 he unsuccessfully contested Lincoln as the Liberal candidate.

Macdonell made his living as a journalist in London, principally writing stage reviews for the London Mercury. In 1933, he became famous with the publication of England, Their England. The book gained considerable critical and popular acclaim, and won the James Tait Black Award that year.

Today, Macdonell is remembered mostly for this one book. It is regarded as one of the classics of English humour and is much loved by readers for its evocation of England between the wars. It is particularly cherished by devotees of cricket for its famous description of the village cricket match.

Although the rest of his books have been largely forgotten, several of them earned accolades during his lifetime. Among these are the novels How Like An Angel (1934) and The Autobiography of a Cad (1938); the latter was reissued in the UK in 2001 in Prion Humour Classics. Macdonell also wrote six mystery novels under the name 'Neil Gordon', one of them in collaboration with Milward Kennedy. He also wrote under the pseudonym 'John Cameron'.

Macdonell was also a connoisseur of military history, and wrote a historical study called Napoleon and his Marshals (1934).

Macdonell wrote a number of plays for the theatre. These were mostly comedies, with titles like ''What Next, Baby? Or Shall I Go To Tanganyika'', and were performed on the London stage. He also engaged in amateur theatrics himself, at least in the early part of his career. A review of an amateur production in Thursley, printed in The Times in January 1930, notes that he played his role with "immense gusto" which was "vastly to the taste of the audience". Macdonell also wrote "The crew of the Anaconda" in 1940, a Boys Own ripping yarn type tale.

Macdonell was a regular contributor to The Observer, and also a well-known broadcaster for the BBC Empire Service. He was a keen sportsman and a first-rate golfer, representing the Old Wykehamists on a number of occasions.

He died suddenly in Oxford in 1941 at the age of 45. In his obituary, The Times called him "one of the leaders of the younger school of satirical novelists". He is buried at Wolvercote Cemetery in Oxford.

Marriages
Macdonell was married twice. His first marriage lasted from 1926 to 1937, and gave him his only child Jenny. In July 1937, his wife Mona sued for divorce. According to the suit, Macdonell had committed adultery in a hotel in London the previous January. His second wife was Rose Paul-Schiff, whose family was associated with the banking firm of Warburg and who had fled to England from her native Vienna just before the Anschluss.

History of the concept
The current organization of the article is kind of useless, as it gives no sense of the history or development of the concept, just giving a bunch of different uses of it in apparently random order. Wouldn't it make sense to (at least) put all these usages in chronological order, if not to actually try to determine what the original usage of the term is? john k 23:17, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

 * I think Asimov first popularized the idea. I agree that this article is sadly lacking when it comes to a history of the concept.  Onionhound 20:54, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Please don't remove real world references.
I just undid a revision that removed real world references within this fictional topic. The reason I did so was because the article has problems with being written largely in an "in-universe" (fictional) style. Reducing those complaints (tags), I feel, means providing as many out-of-universe (real world) references as we can. The editor's argument was "redundant". While I can agree the text is "a bit excessive" (not quite redundant), it's there for a good reason, I believe. —Aladdin Sane (talk) 15:25, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

 * The Warhammer paragraph especially needs rewriting. It's a huge single paragraph. Very difficult and uninviting to read. —Bisqwit 16:53, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

 * I tried to rework the Warhammer paragraph as best I could but it's unwieldly and needs an expert. I agree with Anon and Onionhound. Most of the info here belongs elsewhere. I don;t object to the format but perhaps it would be better to have a sentence or two, compares interesting/notable similarities/differences and link to elsewhere? Palendrom 01:30, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

 * I tend to think of hyperspace as a sci-fi concept. Is there anything in the Warcraft universe that specifically states it is related to hyperspace, and not merely to some magical plane? If not, I say let it go! On a related issue, would now be a good time to create a hyperspace in computer and video games article to place some of these in fiction bits?

The Erma Felna section is just plain wrong. Chrisweuve (talk) 11:44, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

Confusion between hyperspace and subspace
Many parts of this article confuse the concepts of hyperspace (a high-dimensional space) with subspace (a lower dimensional space). Subspace, as used in science fiction such as Cordwainer Smith or presumably Star Trek, is based on a sending artifacts or messages through a spatial dimension below or under normal 3D space. Hyperspace is used to send artifacts or message through a spatial dimension above normal 3D space. These are two distinct concepts that have been conflated in this article. Either subspace concepts should be moved to a separate article or the title should be changed to indicate the article deals with a variety of fictional concepts about space time including both hyperspace and subspace. Steevithak (talk) 16:19, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Subspace (fictional) redirects to this article, but I think it is better to have these together. Keep in mind this is fictional science. See subspace and hyperspace for the actual definitions of these words. In this article these words mean what the author of a particular work intends them to mean. The parts of the article that use "subspace" are the "FreeSpace universe" section, the "Star Trek" section, the paragraph about "overdive" and the introduction to the "Other forms" section. The "FreeSpace universe" section and the "Star Trek" section only use the word "subspace" and do not mix it with hyperspace, so those are fine. The introduction to the "Other forms" section simply mentions the some authors use "subspace" for the same thing that other authors use "hyperspace". The paragraph about "overdive" is the only questionable use of the word subspace, unless Murray Leinster (the writer) used the word "subspace" to describe overdrive. The only other thing I can add is perhaps the article should be moved to "Faster-than-light travel (science fiction)" or "Faster-than-light travel in fiction". There is already an article "Interstellar travel in fiction", but it is just a list of lists. This could be merged into that. Richard-of-Earth (talk) 08:10, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Admirably, I would agree with Steevithak, however in the light of http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/treknology/warp3.htm I have since revised my opinion. This interpretation, while lexicon symmetry is poor in my opinion: if hyperspace in = to subspace, than why call anything subspace at all; everything is just hyperspace; It does appear to be the prevalence convention. This is further evidenced by:
 * https://forum.gateworld.net/threads/25303-Hyperspace-vs-Subspace?p=5006583&viewfull=1#post5006583
 * https://scifi.stackexchange.com/questions/3191/how-does-the-theory-of-subspace-work
 * Due to the nature of the prevailing interpretation, I believe that it may be best for this page to be filled under Alternate Spacial Dimensions in science fiction. Refiling the page would better representing the broadness of the topic the page encompass. With the refile, topics such as FTL Drive, Subspace, and Hyperspace would all be better represented within the page. Seamus M. Slack (talk) 01:56, 24 July 2019 (UTC)

Giving the examples their own page
I've been looking though the examples with an eye for quality. Generally they run the gambit of ways to need improvement. That's not preternaturally great, given that the page as it exists also needs some changes to help length and writing style (removing the personal essay feel). Since both the examples and the page are in need of work, it seems like having them both together makes the page much more disorganized than could otherwise be achieved by having the pages separate. I really like the dedication that when into the example section, nor do I think it's off topic in spirit, only it makes the Hyperspace page too long. I'd really like to see the example section get the fine tuning that it needs. I think separating the two pages, Hyperspace and List of Hyperspace Depictions in Science Fiction, would help achieve a more concise reading experience.
 * List of Hyperspace Depictions in Science Fiction being it's own page would allow and  to come off of Hyperspace.
 * Then the parts of List of Hyperspace Depictions in Science Fiction could be more easily worked out on its own page.

 * Examples section was split off into it's own page. Seamus M. Slack (talk) 22:33, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

Problems with specific examples
This section of Talk has been moved to Talk:List of Hyperspace Depictions in Science Fiction.

Update
Well the splitting off of a list didn't last long, but it was just a massive list of in-universe fancruft which didn't deserve to survive. However, I rather feel that the article was lacking any useful examples, which is the opposite extreme. I have inserted some significant cinematic examples to the Later depictions section, written from a MOS:REALWORLD perspective, along with citations, which give the article a little more depth. The rest of that section is still unsourced WP:OR and could safely be deleted - whoever wrote that stuff clearly has no intention of adding sources. Cnbrb (talk) 14:51, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

 * I see the split content did not survive the Articles for deletion/List of hyperspace depictions in science fiction (I agree it was 99.99% irredimable fancruft). I am now rewriting this article removing surviving unreferenced content, and adding content referenced to reliable sources like SF reference works.

Merge Notice
Just added a merge notice at the top. People are more likely to look under Hyperspace than Hyperdrive, ya? Davidpk212 20:31, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

 * I'm inclined to think the merge is good idea. With redirects, of course, so that looking up "hyperdrive" would link you to the "hyperspace" article. KarlBunker 22:34, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

 * I vote against the merge/move for now. There are currently three articles on traditional science fiction FTL drives: jump drive, warp drive, and hyperdrive. Hyperdrive is as relevant a search term as hyperspace. I agree that hyperdrive and hyperspace are related concepts but even if merged that does not mean that the term "Hyperdrive" should only go to the BBC TV series. If anything, we may need a disambiguation page. Rillian 22:58, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

If the proposal has one more vote, I'll do the business and merge it. Davidpk212 18:34, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Merging, even though it didn't get another vote. Davidpk212 16:44, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

 * I undid the merge to continue the discussion. Two votes after just three days of discussion does not constitute a consensus. Rillian 22:58, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

 * I think Rillian has some good points, so I'll change my vote to no merge. KarlBunker 23:34, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Done?
I am done expanding/verifying content here with the sources I have access to, and I am not sure there is much left. There is still some ORish content here, which, while correct, needs referencing or removal. Ping User:TompaDompa, User:Daranios, User:Jclemens... if no-one can find refs for the content that I tagged as citation needed, it probably needs to go? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 23:55, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok, many of the CN tags are quotes from primary sources. The Lensman series has been on my to-read list for decades; I doubt I'll ever actually get to it. Some of the latter ones can absolutely be cited. I'm sure I've got plenty for Babylon 5. We might want to note wormhole travel more explicitly, as that's a feature of DS9 and Farscape.  I'm not seeing anything tagged that's controversial or ridiculous enough that it needs to go, unless you're taking this to GAN sometime soon? Jclemens (talk) 00:34, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
 * @Jclemens While we can of course confirm some plot content with primary sources, this risks turning this back into the usual laundry list of "all works that mention the word hyperdrive", a bad style that is the course of so many 'in fiction' article that wer are slowly rewriting (per AfDs past and present, and also this is how this article looked ~10 years ago). As such, I tend to think that only examples mentioned in sources with analysis are relevant, although of course per IAR and consensus on talk we can ignore this if some super relevant cases arise. And you are right, nothing here is controversial or wrong, it is mostly correct and on topic - the problem is OR. See for example Earth in science fiction and Space travel in science fiction and their talk pages. For both of these topics, I and others have identified relevant themes/aspects that could be discussed further, but are simply not covered in RS (see ex. talk of Earth, my comments in the talk post at 9:31 am, 21 August 2021). It is unfortunate when we have to face the fact that our articles are obviously incomplete, and the only way to fix it on Wikipedia is OR. No good chouce, but policy wise dictates such content needs to be removed (at best, I think it can be copied to talk and kept here until sources are found...).

Underspace from Star Trek
I've redirectes Underspace from Star Trek here, because its a form of hyperspace. It's mentioned in the Star Trek Fact Files and the Star Trek Encylopedia. Maybe other source, that i don't have. It is therefore worth mentioning. --Mark McWire (talk) 22:19, 9 November 2021 (UTC) In addition, both compilations / books clearly count as secondary sources, no primary sources.--Mark McWire (talk) 22:20, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

 * Compilation books are not considered seconary, as they are just more official fancruft. If you can find an independent source mentioning this, we can add this term to the list of synonyms, but I don't see why we need a dedicated paragraph. This is exactly the type of content that was split into Articles for deletion/List of hyperspace depictions in science fiction and deleted subsequently (you can still see this in the history of our article here if you look at how it was ~10 years ago or so). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 22:23, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

 * Can we at least leave it like that? --Mark McWire (talk) 22:32, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * @Mark McWire I think this type of content is not encyclopedic and lowers the quality of articles. We should avoid extesive detail that just summarizes fiction (WP:ALLPLOT, etc.). This is why over the last few years a number of articles have been either deleted or rewritten, see for example Earth in science fiction, Near future in science fiction, Far future in science fiction, Comets in fiction, and others. The relevant rewrite is about removing content like the one you just added, and instead adding the analysis of significance/influence/reception/etc. I strongly recommend you look at the history of these articles, past and presence, and that you look at how hyperspace itself looked 10 years ago (see discussion above about how it was rewritten since). I'll also ping some editors who have been active in related discussions so they can offer us more guidance: User:TompaDompa, User:Daranios, User:Jclemens. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here  09:09, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I've removed the new section and changed the redirects to Later depictions, because the terms already mentioned there. But like said in Talk:Warp drive, the warp drive itself has no connection to hyperspace. --87.176.102.228 (talk) 10:05, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I was just about to argue that at least stating the term underspace + where it comes from is a positive thing for this Wikipedia article, but thanks to the latest edits there is now an independant source for it. So that should settle that, I guess. Daranios (talk) 11:54, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I disagree. Any transformation of a work into another format is necessarily secondary, just like a film review would be. This prejudice against derivative works describing fictional elements from a popular, rather than scholarly, perspective really has no basis in policy, and I'm inclined to characterize it as just that: an unfounded prejudice., feel free to disabuse me of my impression, but the sad fact is that I've never had a complaint when writing Game of Thrones articles using summary-of-the-week posts from pop culture sites, but multiple dead-tree independent books on Stargate, Babylon 5, Farscape, etc. are derided as insufficiently scholarly to count as RS. Jclemens (talk) 17:34, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * @Jclemens Pop culture sites are sometimes ok, sometimes not, but they are not what we are discussing here. What we are is the Star Trek Fact Files magazine : "designed to provide information about the Star Trek universe from an "in-universe" point of view." I am sorry, but it doesn't seem reliable or in-dependent to me, plus when you look at the diff in question, this was a trivial technobabble term that appeared in a single episode (see https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Underspace ). Plus the paragraph also contains editorializing OR "There is also a counterpart to hyperspace in Star Trek [called underspace]". I stand by my original assessment that a paragraph on this is UNDUE here, and frankly, probably UNDUE anywhere on Wikipedia outside the article on that particular episode (leaving whether it's notable for another discussion). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 20:57, 10 November 2021 (UTC)

OR removed
I have removed the following paragraph, which appears more or less sound but is not properly referenced and I couldn't find good refs for it. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:05, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

Though the concept of hyperspace did not emerge until the 20th century, along with space travel as a whole, stories of an unseen realm outside our normal world are part of earliest oral tradition. Some stories, before the development of the science fiction genre, feature space travel using a fictional existence outside what humans normally observe. For example, in Somnium (published 1634), Johannes Kepler tells of magic travel to the moon with the help of demons. Note: Somniumis mentioned in http://www.sf-encyclopedia.com/entry/space_flight

Giuseppe Giacosa

Giuseppe Giacosa (21 October, 1847 – 1 September, 1906) was an Italian poet, playwright and librettist.

Life
He was born in Colleretto Parella, now Colleretto Giacosa, near Turin. His father was a magistrate. Giuseppe went to the University of Turin, studying in the University of Turin, Faculty of Law. Though he gained a degree in law, he did not pursue a legal career.

He gained initial fame for his play Una Partita a Scacchi ("A Game of Chess") in 1871. His main field was playwriting, which he accomplished with both insight and simplicity, using subjects set in Piedmont and themes addressing contemporary bourgeois values. He wrote La signora di Challant (La Dame de Challant, The Lady of Challand), based on a novella by Matteo Bandello, for noted French actress Sarah Bernhardt, produced in New York in 1891.

Giacosa wrote the final polished version of the libretto for Giacomo Puccini's Manon Lescaut, which had been begun by Ruggero Leoncavallo, Marco Praga, Domenico Oliva, and Luigi Illica. He also wrote the librettos used by Puccini for La bohème, Tosca and Madama Butterfly in conjunction with Luigi Illica. Illica supplied the plot and dialogue, and Giacosa polished the libretto into verses. Also well as the one Act play of The rights of the soul".

Gavriil Adrianovich Tikhov

Gavriil Adrianovich Tikhov (Гавриил Адрианович Тихов, 1 May 1875 – 25 January 1960) was a Soviet astronomer who was a pioneer in astrobiology and is considered to be the father of astrobotany. He worked as an observer at the Pulkovo Observatory from 1906 until 1941. After undertaking an expedition to Alma-Ata to observe the solar eclipse of September 21, 1941, he remained and became one of the founders of the Kamenskoe Plateau Observatory, the Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute, and the Kazakhstan Academy of Sciences.

G. A. Tikhov was born in Smolevichy, near Minsk, in the family of a railway employee, the family often moved from place to place. He began to study at the gymnasium of Pavlodar, and completed secondary education at the Simferopol gymnasium. Living in Simferopol, he once saw two bright stars in the clear evening sky. He learned from the teacher of the Simferopol gymnasium that these stars are the planet Venus and the star Sirius. At the Simferopol Public Library, he read two astronomical books. "I read these books with exciting interest, and my fate was decided. In the spring of 1892 I will never forget - then I irrevocably decided to become an astronomer," he writes in his memoir, 60 Years Near the Telescope. At the gymnasium observatory, he first looked through a telescope.

Tikhov invented the feathering spectrograph by using the commonly occurring chromatic aberration to his advantage. By installing a ring-shaped diaphragm in front of the objective he enabled an observer to deduce the color and spectral class of a star very easily. He was one of the first to use color filters to increase the contrast of surface details on planets. He was appointed head of astrobotany in Alma-Ata, and investigated the possibility of life on other bodies in the Solar System.

The crater Tikhov crater on the Moon, the Martian crater Tikhov, and the asteroid 2251 Tikhov are named in his honor.

In popular culture

 * In the episode 5, season 3 of Star Trek: Discovery 'Die Trying', a botanical repository starship is named Tikhov.

Matthew 3:12

Matthew 3:12 is the twelfth verse of the third chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament. The verse occurs in the section relating the preachings of John the Baptist. In this he uses the imagery of harvesting wheat to describe God's judgement.

Content
In Koine Greek it is:

 * οὗ τὸ πτύον ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ
 * διακαθαριεῖ τὴν ἅλωνα αὐτοῦ,
 * καὶ συνάξει τὸν σῖτον αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν ἀποθήκην,
 * τὸ δὲ ἄχυρον κατακαύσει πυρὶ ἀσβέστῳ.
 * Hou to ptyon en tē cheiri autou, kai
 * diakathariei tēn alōna autou,
 * kai synaxei ton siton autou eis tēn apothēkēn
 * to de achyron katakausi pyri asbestō.

In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads:
 * Whose fan is in his hand, and
 * he will thoroughly purge his floor,
 * and gather his wheat into the
 * garner; but he will burn up
 * the chaff with unquenchable fire.

The World English Bible translates the passage as:
 * His winnowing fork is in his
 * hand, and he will thoroughly
 * cleanse his threshing floor. He
 * will gather his wheat into the
 * barn, but the chaff he will
 * burn up with unquenchable fire."

For a collection of other versions see BibleHub Matthew 3:12

Analysis
This verse describes wind winnowing, the period's standard process for separating the wheat from the chaff. Ptyon, the word translated as winnowing fork in the World English Bible is a tool similar to a pitchfork that would be used to lift harvested wheat up into the air into the wind. The wind would then blow away the lighter chaff allowing the edible grains to fall to the threshing floor, a large flat surface. The unneeded chaff would then be burned. As with the axe already placed against the tree in the preceding verse, the winnowing fork is already in hand, emphasizing the nearness of judgement.

Winnowing forks, generally made of wood, were common at the time, and several dating from this period have been found. Modern scholars mostly agree that the term "winnowing fork" is the most accurate but older versions have fan, shovel, broom, and other translations. In the Eastern Orthodox church the word was most often interpreted as broom and a common icon shows Christ holding a broom.

In this verse John the Baptist is still assumed to be addressing the Pharisees and Sadducees. The eschatological imagery is quite clear. The wheat represents those who are truly repentant, the chaff those like the Pharisees and Sadducees who are not. The messiah will clear the world, and those that are worthy would be brought into his "barn" while those that were unworthy will burn in unquenchable fire. France notes that unquenchable is in no way a synonym for eternal and that no doctrine of eternal damnation for the wicked should be read into this passage.

Textual witnesses
Some early manuscripts containing the text of this verse are:
 * Papyrus 101 (3rd century)
 * Codex Vaticanus (~325–350)
 * Codex Sinaiticus (~330–360)
 * Codex Washingtonianus (~400)
 * Codex Bezae (~400)
 * Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus (~450)

Commentary from the Church Fathers
Rabanus Maurus: By the fan is signified the separation of a just trial; that it is in the Lord’s hand, means, ‘in His power,’ as it is written, The Father hath committed all judgment to the Son.

Pseudo-Chrysostom: The floor, is the Church, the barn, is the kingdom of heaven, the field, is the world. The Lord sends forth His Apostles and other teachers, as reapers to reap all nations of the earth, and gather them into the floor of the Church. Here we must be threshed and winnowed, for all men are delighted in carnal things as grain delights in the husk. But whoever is faithful and has the marrow of a good heart, as soon as he has a light tribulation, neglecting carnal things runs to the Lord; but if his faith be feeble, hardly with heavy sorrow; and he who is altogether void of faith, however he may be troubled, passes not over to God. The wheat when first thrashed lies in one heap with chaff and straw, and is after winnowed to separate it; so the faithful are mixed up in one Church with the unfaithful; but persecution comes as a wind, that, tossed by Christ’s fan, they whose hearts were separate before, may be also now separated in place. He shall not merely cleanse, but throughly cleanse; therefore the Church must needs be tried in many ways till this be accomplished. And first the Jews winnowed it, then the Gentiles, now the heretics, and after a time shall Antichrist throughly winnow it. For as when the blast is gentle, only the lighter chaff is carried off, but the heavier remains; so a slight wind of temptation carries off the worst characters only; but should a greater storm arise, even those who seem steadfast will depart. There is need then of heavier persecution that the Church should be cleansed.

Saint Remigius: This His floor, to wit, the Church, the Lord cleanses in this life, both when by the sentence of the Priests the bad are put out of the Church, and when they are cut off by death.

Rabanus Maurus: The cleansing of the floor will then be finally accomplished, when the Son of Man shall send His Angels, and shall gather all offences out of His kingdom.

Gregory the Great: After the threshing is finished in this life, in which the grain now groans under the burden of the chaff, the fan of the last judgment shall so separate between them, that neither shall any chaff pass into the granary, nor shall the grain fall into the fire which consumes the chaff.

Hilary of Poitiers: The wheat, i. e. the full and perfect fruit of the believer, he declares, shall be laid up in heavenly barns; by the chaff he means the emptiness of the unfruitful.

Rabanus Maurus: There is this difference between the chaff and the tares, that the chaff is produced of the same seed as the wheat, but the tares from one of another kind. The chaff therefore are those who enjoy the sacraments of the faith, but are not solid; the tares are those who in profession as well as in works are separated from the lot of the good.

Saint Remigius: The unquenchable fire is the punishment of eternal damnation; either because it never totally destroys or consumes those it has once seized on, but torments them eternally; or to distinguish it from purgatorial fire which is kindled for a time and again extinguished.

Augustine: If any asks which were the actual words spoken by John, whether those reported by Matthew, or by Luke, or by Mark, it may be shown, that there is no difficulty here to him who rightly understands that the sense is essential to our knowledge of the truth, but the words indifferent. And it is clear we ought not to deem any testimony false, because the same fact is related by several persons who were present in different words and different ways. Whoever thinks that the Evangelists might have been so inspired by the Holy Ghost that they should have differed among themselves neither in the choice, nor the number, nor the order of their words, he does not see that by how much the authority of the Evangelists is preeminent, so much the more is to be by them established the veracity of other men in the same circumstances. But the discrepancy may seem to be in the thing, and not only in words, between, I am not worthy to bear His shoes, and, to loose His shoe-latchet. Which of these two expressions did John use? He who has reported the very words will seem to have spoken truth; he who has given other words, though he have not hid, or been forgetful, yet has he said one thing for another. But the Evangelists should be clear of every kind of falseness, not only that of lying, but also that of forgetfulness. If then this discrepancy be important, we may suppose John to have used both expressions, either at different times, or both at the same time. But if he only meant to express the Lord’s greatness and his own humility, whether he used one or the other the sense is preserved, though any one should in his own words repeat the same profession of humility using the figure of the shoes; their will and intention does not differ. This then is a useful rule and one to be remembered, that it is no lie, when one fairly represents his meaning whose speech one is recounting, though one uses other words; if only one shows our meaning to be the same with his. Thus understood it is a wholesome direction, that we are to enquire only after the meaning of the speaker.

England, Their England

England, Their England (1933) is an affectionately satirical comic novel of 1920s English urban and rural society by the Scottish writer A. G. Macdonell. It is particularly famed for its portrayal of village cricket.

Social satire
One of a genre at the time, the novel examines the changing nature of English society during the interwar period. The style and subject matter recall the works of Evelyn Waugh and P. G. Wodehouse, Macdonell's contemporaries, as well as earlier writers such as Jerome K. Jerome. It is also known for its description of traditional village cricket. The novel is purported to be a roman à clef. The novel won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for fiction in 1933. The title alludes to the refrain "England, My England" of the poem "Pro Rege Nostro" by William Ernest Henley.

Plot
Set in 1920s England, the book takes the form of a travel memoir by a young Scotsman who has been invalided away from the Western Front, "Donald Cameron", whose father's will forces him to reside in England. There he writes for a series of London newspapers, before being commissioned by a Welshman to write a book about the English from the view of a foreigner. Taking to the country and provincial cities, Donald spends his time doing research for a book on the English by consorting with journalists and minor poets, attending a country house weekend, serving as private secretary to a Member of Parliament, attending the League of Nations, and playing village cricket. The village cricket match is the most celebrated episode in the novel, and a reason cited for its enduring appeal. An important character is Mr Hodge, a caricature of Sir John Squire (poet and editor of the London Mercury), while the cricket team described in the book's most famous chapter is a representation of Sir John's Cricket Club – the Invalids – which survives today. The book ends in the ancient city of Winchester, where Macdonell went to school.

CHAU-DT

CHAU-DT is a French language television station serving as an affiliate of TVA in Carleton-sur-Mer, Quebec, Canada. It broadcasts an analogue signal on VHF channel 5 from a transmitter near Rue de la Montagne in Carleton-sur-Mer.

Owned by Télé Inter-Rives, its studios are located on Boulevard Perron/Route 132 in Carleton-sur-Mer. This station can also be seen on Rogers Cable channel 4 and digital channel 610.

History
The original owner of CHAU was Dr. Charles Houde of La Télévision de la Baie des Chaleurs, who put the station on the air for the first time on October 17, 1959. Initially, like all other Quebec private TV stations, CHAU was a dual CBC/SRC affiliate airing both English and French shows. For CHAU, the ratio of English to French programs was 7:13. The station entered Radio-Canada's microwave network on March 24, 1960, and became an all-French station in 1968 when Montreal's CBMT opened a rebroadcaster in Carleton. In 1978, it became one of the last Canadian stations to air local programming in colour. In 1979, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) gave CHAU a mandate to extend TVA service to northern New Brunswick and the Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine region as part of an effort to improve French-language television service in those areas. Accordingly, around 1980, CHAU began carrying TVA programming in off-hours. It became an exclusive TVA affiliate on December 18, 1983, when Radio-Canada opened a rebroadcaster of CBGAT in the Carleton area.

In 2000, CHAU-TV was one of four television stations purchased from the Power Corporation of Canada by Corus Entertainment, and the only one located outside Ontario. It was soon resold.

CHAU picks up the TVA signal from its sister station in Rivière-du-Loup, CIMT-DT, with both stations' logos used in network promos.

CHAU-DT holds the distinction of owning the largest rebroadcaster network of any privately owned station in Quebec. Its rebroadcaster network blankets the Gaspé, and it also operates three rebroadcasters in New Brunswick. The station's main signal also covers most of northern New Brunswick—its city grade signal covers Campbellton, while its grade B signal reaches Bathurst. It also operates a bureau in Bathurst. CIMT also operates a rebroadcaster in Edmundston, and between them the two stations provide TVA service to the entire province.

CHAU-DT was approved by the CRTC for and had plans for converting its transmitters to digital by the August 31, 2011, digital transition deadline, though none of its transmitters are subject to this deadline; neither the Gaspésie region nor the Campbellton area are designated as a mandatory market for digital television conversion. CHAU-DT converted all of its transmitters to digital in November 2011.

On June 6, 2018, Télé Inter-Rives filed an application with the CRTC to add a transmitter in the Magdalen Islands, expanding its already-large coverage area. If approved, this transmitter would receive the call sign CHAU-DT-12, broadcasting on VHF channel 12 at 100 watts from a tower in Cap-aux-Meules. The station had also expressed its interest in offering news coverage for viewers on the islands and work with independent media producers for further local content that would air on CHAU-DT and its repeater network, including the proposed CHAU-DT-12. The new repeater will broadcast on a channel previously used by local Radio-Canada repeater CBIMT - it and CBMT repeater CBMYT channel 7 closed down July 31, 2012, when budget cuts forced the closure of the CBC and Radio-Canada's remaining analogue transmitters. The closedown of the CBC/Radio-Canada repeater network had left the Magdalen Islands without any aerial television service, due to its location far from the mainland.

Transmitters
CHAU-DT-5 was approved by the CRTC on April 8, 2013, to relocate its broadcasting frequency from channel 13 to channel 11; the station's owners cited interference from CBC Television station CBCT-DT in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, which also broadcasts on channel 13, as the reason.

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Hedley

Hedley
[ Vote here] (16/7/7) ended 02:18 3 June 2005 (UTC) (withdrew by candidate)

I'm making a self-nomination now as I personally believe i'm ready for administrator responsibilities. I've been a Wikipedian since the 18th of February and currently have roughly 1,500 2,000 edits. I feel that I am a responsible user who takes active part in all areas of Wikipedia (including VfD, the mailing list and IRC). I believe that I have completed the Wikipedia learning curve, and that I am ready to further help the community by becoming an administrator. As an administrator I feel I would be better equipped to help deal with vandals and their vandalism, which I frequently do already, and that I would be better equipped to as a whole make Wikipedia a better place. Hedley 18:01, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

 * Self-nomination. Hedley 18:42, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I would like to thank everyone for their comments and their votes in this RfA. Unfortunately it is clear how things are going to go, especially after the dispute regarding messages I allegedly sent on another forum, so I will be withdrawing this Request for Adminship. I'm disappointed about the ways it gone, and I feel I may have been the victim of a mis-understanding or simple dislike toward me with one or two of the votes. I will take the constructive comments onboard and will be back in one month with more contributions behind me. I hope to by then of cleared things up with those I have differences with, and to of become a strong enough editor to gain a secure consensus in my Request for Adminship. Hedley 02:14, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Well I'm sorry to hear that you are withdrawing your adminship and I hope that you feel comfortable either accepting a nomination or re-nominating yourself in the near future. Jtkiefer 02:23, Jun 3, 2005 (UTC)
 * I'll probably be re-nominating myself by mid-July, after I address issues brought up here. If i'm nominated by somebody else a month from now i'll happily accept. Hedley 02:24, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Support
 * 1) I trust Hedley to be responsible with his powers. 1500 edits is not that low at all, and really I think that edit counts is a poor way to measure admin-qualities. gkhan 23:49, May 29, 2005 (UTC)
 * 2) Yep. — Dan | Talk 01:39, May 30, 2005 (UTC)
 * 3) Cool. JuntungWu 13:37, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 4) His apology and clarification shows that this user is responsible, and his edits show he is dedicated to the Wikipedia.  Bratsche talk  random 01:28, May 31, 2005 (UTC)
 * 5) Support, active and useful editor. I don't even see any need to chew over what exactly his involvement was in the fake article business—whatever it was, newbies have certainly been excused worse behavior. It's assumed that noobs haven't seen the wiki light. As long as Hedley became a trusty user after the incident, which I'm convinced of, just forget it. Extra points for the selfnom! Bishonen | talk 10:05, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 6) Support. Nadavspi | talk 22:49, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 7) Changing my vote to support. Grutness...  wha?  02:40, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 8) Support. Ambi 06:47, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 9) Support. James F. (talk) 16:58, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 10) Support. I thought I had already voted, but I guess not. Linuxbeak | Talk | Desk 19:01, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * 11) Support. Well yes I'm new to wikipedia. I can still vote, I'm already contributing. I believe wikipedia needs more dedicated persons like Hedley. QBorg 21:53, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 12) Party! — Trilobite (Talk) 00:05, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * He's apologised: what's the big deal? smoddy 14:17, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC) Vote changed 22:35, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 1) Support. Yay Hedley! User:Luigi30 (Υσηρ ταλκ ΛυηγηΛ) 15:50, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Oppose
 * 1) Slightly Oppose. Personally I find Hedley's politics concerning some articles based on personal bias. --Master Psychologist 09:09, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 2) * I shall comment my vote a little bit. Personally I like "vandal hunters", but not those who are deleting something and keeping something other, basically in a clear pattern that has nothing to do with notability or some wiki preferences. --Master Psychologist 09:14, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 3) ** As this is an accusation i'll make a short response. The user is referring to my removal of several names from child prodigy, which I did with the help on JRM and Gkhan. Our discussion can be seen at Talk:Child prodigy. To note, Master Psychologist believes I should not have removed the names and this is possibly the basis for his vote. Hedley 13:31, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 4) I really want to oppose, but I'm clearly biased, due to my contact with User:David 5000 Oh, what the hell, A qualified oppose. This user didn't get to a good start. This post from an external forum suggests that the reason he informed Wikipedians of his fake articles was to get other users in trouble: he was trying to get back at certain people. Anyway I don't think he's been a member long enough and he doesn't have enough edits to his name. Dmn / Դմն 23:35, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 5) *Fair enough. The forum post you link to doesn't think it really mean anything regarding my Wikipedia conduct. How am I suppose to defend my actions of reporting them in any other way than that? The articles, the game, and the cleaning them up is in the past and I feel that my recent contributions and administrative qualities are what should be judged here, not my first few edits. Hedley 23:52, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 6) **Do you think you have enough edits to be an admin?Dmn / Դմն 23:57, 30 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 7) ***To quote Gkhan above, "edit counts is a poor way to measure admin-qualities". I think I have made enough contributions for people to judge my ability to become an administrator. I've currently made around 1,700 edits - when you became an administrator yourself you'd only made a couple of thousand. In my opinion it is quality over quantity, and those who vote here - and those who have experience of myself - can decide as to whether or not I am good administrator material based on the quality of the edits I have made. Hedley 00:05, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 8) *Add the lie Hedley just posted below, to my reasons for voting against. Dmn / Դմն 14:49, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 9) oppose for now. i'd like to see a few more months of activity with the community and the software. Kingturtle 18:53, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 10) oppose for now. I have to wait and see. --Jondel 01:01, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 11) Oppose. Before anyone dismisses this as simply being vindictive, please read to the end, my opposition is based on more than the vandalism incident. As has already been discussed, Hedley and I (and others) were involved in a game on the CoolClarity message boards - both of us made two or three vandalisms, nothing more.  About a month later I found that I had been blocked, after Hedley decided that he needed to drop someone else in it to save his own skin.  This is the text of a private message that I received from him on the CoolClarity message board on 20th March: "If you want to know the whole truth, in this PM, I was just trying to impress the big guns in the Wikipedia room by coming clean by adding Zakir Raman to VfD. When I supplied them the info on the link to here, they noticed you and I guess I spoke to some strict admins about it because they put you up on the RfC. I don't intentionally mean to grass anyone up, but I wasn't gonna say that on Wikipedia.. Thing is, I didn't want to get a block, so I was defending myself. No intention to be hostile toward you or anything, but I was stuck in a situation where it was defend you and get blocked, or go on the side of the admins and come away fairly clean.." I don't think someone who is willing to twist the truth like that to further his own Wikipedia career is suitable to be an admin. My other objections revolve around the two occasions that I have encountered Hedley while making edits on here.  The first involves the page Nelson Piquet, Jr., which I created in October.  In March I was informed on my talk page by Hedley that "Hey, your article Nelson Piquet, Jr. was a duplicate of an existing article on him, so i've changed it to a redirect. You'll find there was an article of more depth already at Nelson Angelo Piquet."  Of course if you compare the history of both pages 1 2 you'll see that Hedley was wrong: my page was there five months earlier - when I questioned him about this on his talk page I didn't receive a response.  The second issue is about the page for the racing driver Mathias Lauda.  Hedley created the page with the incorrect title 'Matthias Lauda', but when I renamed the page he quickly reverted it to the incorrect version without checking whether he was correct.  Again my questions went unanswered.  These experiences make me think that Hedley is inclined to make comments and edits without checking his facts first - I'm concerned that Wikipedia would give moderator powers to someone who acts without checking whether his actions are justified first. David 5000 08:08, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 12) *I completely deny writing the quoted private message. I sent him a private message apologising for the inconvenience, and noting that I was not intentionally trying to 'diss' him, but I did not write what he has quoted. Their community is inparticularly hostile toward me now and I would not be surprised if they were planning to completely rig this vote with opposes. I also deny the claim that I don't answer talk page messages - your message was posted on your own talk page, so I didn't see it, and was not a question. Finally, to note the below comment, my CC account was 'conveniently' disabled recently so anyone could of been on it. I'm not going to respond to David further. Hedley 14:02, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 13) **There's a very simple way to prove that Hedley is lying here. If a trustable third party Wikipedian wants to check, I will happily give them my CoolClarity username and password to read my private messages and prove that I was sent the quoted text on 20 March 2005, 00:48.  I would put a screen shot of it up, but I'm sure I'd be accused of faking it.  I thought you might dismiss my points as being part of a conspiracy against you, but I hardly post on that message board at all either, so you're wrong about that.  And you still haven't answered my main reason for opposing anyway - the fact that in my experience you're quick to make changes without checking the facts first. David 5000 14:19, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 14) ***I've been shown this message and I can assure you David 5000 is telling the truth here. Perhaps Hedley will rethink his denial? Dmn / Դմն 14:46, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 15) ***David 5000, I would be interested in seeing this message. Instead of having someone verifying it, though, could you post your account and password here so everybody can check it? Afterwards you could change your password. That way would be a lot fairer I think- we can all find out who's telling the truth. Flcelloguy 16:50, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 16) ***Or if you're unwillingly to give your password to everyone (I would respect that opinion), maybe get 5 current admins to verify? The truth is the most important thing we must discover here. Flcelloguy 16:52, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 17) ****David 5000 and the Cool Clarity staff are capable of forging a message from me, including the date and time of send. I never sent the quoted message and so I no doubt think that if he is so happy to give out his password, he must have a message from my account which has been edited accordingly. Hedley 17:01, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 18) ****I would rather not give my password to everyone, but the 5 admin idea sounds good - email or message me and I will happily give you my login details (once I'm sure that you're trustworthy!!). Hedley's excuses are becoming increasingly far-fetched.  First he denies the existence of the message, then he claims someone else might have logged into his account and written it, now he's claiming that I involved the admins of a large online community to edit one personal message?  Methinks he doth protest too much - I would NEVER claim that someone else said something if it was not true. David 5000 19:27, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 19) *****I can confirm that the quote appears to be genuine. I am not convinced generally that Hedley did particularly wrong, but I have changed my vote to neutral because I am not totally convinced.  That is not to say that I don't think Hedley would make a good admin, just that I want to have some slightly-suspect good faith issues ironed out.  I would support in the future. smoddy 22:46, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 20) Reluctant oppose for now. Seems like a very nice person on IRC, and does have many good contributions. I would like Hedley to stay involved. However, past vandalism must be balanced by a long good history, in my opinion, and the history here, while high enough to regard as a good contributor, is just a little bit too low to balance yet for admin status yet. Jonathunder 16:16, 2005 Jun 2 (UTC)
 * 21) Oppose the incident being discussed suggests the user is lacking a a level of maturity that I would expect from an admin. --nixie 01:44, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Neutral
 * 1) Hrm.  I like Hedley, but 1500 edits is a tad on the low side for me.  I like the breadth of contributions, though there is an issue with respect to edit summary usage.  He pointed out the fake article contest he was involved in (more info here).  Some decent vandal fighting, but I can't reward the actions regarding the fake article creation.  If I hadn't encountered Hedley before, I'd probably oppose.  CryptoDerk 18:31, May 29, 2005 (UTC)
 * 2) *I appreciate your honesty. When I made the two 'fake articles' I had no experience of Wikipedia previously - It was just another website, and so I just gone ahead and done what the user on the forum said. Now that i'm established as a contributor, and now that I believe i'm a responsible user, I can look at that and see my mistakes. As it is in the past I hope it doesn't act as a permanant burden to me, as i'm past that - I happily reported it all after i'd become a regular Wikipedian. As for the edit summaries, I now 99% of the time use them for all non-minor or talk page edits (I've forgotten once or twice although that happens to everybody). Hedley 18:41, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 3) Tentative neutral. I've just read the whole "fake page" incident (read it here), and it does seem that Hedley has "come clean" and was truly just following in on a joke. However, the latter part of the page (the outside opinion by DMN) does somewhat worry me. However, we've got to give him the benefit of the doubt- he has made many quality contributions since then and has not been vandalizing again. One should not be punished or scarred forever for one incident. The reason I'm voting neutral is because I feel the length of time since the incident is a little bit short. The incident was about 2 1/2 months ago (the responses were all dated 3/19/05). Hopefully Hedley has not done any more vandalizing since then, if you haven't, Hedley, give it another month and then I'd support you. Thanks for your contributions though! Flcelloguy 22:53, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 4) Something is telling me this user has done something before that I didn't like. But I can't remember what. Everyking 09:55, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
 * 5) *Thanks for sharing! :) El_C 06:12, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * I feel pretty much like CryptoDerk, above, does. I've seen good work, but under four months and 1500 edits is a little on the slim side. Will willingly support in future if performance continues at the current level, though. Grutness...  wha?  00:48, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC) Yeah. okay, you convinced me.
 * 1) While recent edits seem like he is on a good path, with few edits and questionable practices in the past, I must be neutral. However, in another few months, with no further issues, I see no reason why not. Burgundavia (✈ take a flight?) 13:38, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)
 * 2) The concerns of concerned people concern me. – ugen64 01:38, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 3) *I'm concerned that others concerns are concerning you, but my concern is that others concerns shouldn't infuence your concerns. gkhan 14:18, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)
 * 4) Hedley, you probably need another month or so under your belt at the currently level you're going. Right now, those questionable edits take up a very noticeable percentage of your overall contributions. happened 2 1/2 months ago, which is a bit little too early for me. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 16:23, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 5) *Sorry for responding, but a 'very noticeable percentage'? The questionable edits took up exactly 5 edits of my 2,000. Hedley 16:27, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 6) **Sorry, I lost my train of thought and now corrected that phrase above. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 16:31, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * 7) While I am fairly certain that this user is trustworthy, I think I would prefer to see some more time editing first, to confirm good faith. This is not a slight on Hedley, just to say that I want to see more editing first. A month and I would probably support.  smoddy 22:35, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Comments

Questions for the candidate

A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
 * 1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? (Please read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.)
 * A. I'd be happy to participate in all chores, especially maintenance of VfD and tracking down/dealing with vandals and their vandalism. In general i'm happy to do whats needed, at the time.
 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A. I'm pleased with some of my early articles like Aqua (band), simply because the articles were inaccurate and weak before I worked on them. I was pleased with fixing them. Also, I cleaned up Dragostea Din Tei which i'm happy with, and i'm happy with 2005 GP2 Series season also. On a side note, i'm happy with how User:Hedley/April Fool's Day, 2005 turned out as well. In general, though, every little speedy delete i've posted or minor edit i've made is a contribution, and i'm happy with those too.
 * 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and will deal with it in the future?
 * A. Once I failed to follow WP:POINT when trying to put across my case in the VfD for Radio KoL (which resulted in merge). I created a similiar article to try and say "if that can stay, so can this". I wasn't happy with my actions and have since learned from those mistakes. Also, as some may know, my first Wikipedia experience was as part of a 'make a fake article' game on a forum. I had no Wikipedia experience prior to that, and so participated, making two fake articles. Eventually, after I become a contributor, I reported the articles and (I hope) cleared my name.

Antonio Stoppani

Antonio Stoppani (24 August 1824 – 1 January 1891) was an Italian Catholic priest, patriot, geologist and palaeontologist. He studied the geology of the Italian region and wrote a popular treatise, Il Bel Paese (Italian for "the beautiful country"), on geology and natural history. He was among the first to propose a geological epoch dominated by human activities that altered the shape of the land.

Life
Born in Lecco, Stoppani studied theology and became a priest in the order of the Rosminians. He was ordained in 1848, a year of turmoil with the Siege of Milan. During this siege, the Five Days of Milan, he became a hero for his role in the use of hot air balloons to send messages out of the besieged city. Along with Vincenzo Guglielmini, he ensured that the balloons could move over the walls of the city from the Seminario Maggiore di Porta Orientale and carry messages to rally the Italians against the Austrian Empire. He later became professor of geology in the Royal Technical Institute of Milan, and was distinguished for his research on the Triassic and Liassic formations of northern Italy. Stoppani was important as a popularizer of science. His most popular work, Il Bel Paese, conversazioni sulle bellezze naturali la geologia e la geologia e la geografia fisica d'Italia (1876) ("The Beautiful country, conversation on the natural beauty of geology and the physical geography of Italy"), after which Bel Paese cheese was named by Egidio Galbani (the wrapper for the cheese included a portrait of Stoppani ). It presents, by means of 32 didactic, scientific conversations supposedly in front of a fireplace, ideas and concepts from the natural sciences, in language accessible to the average 19th-century reader. It was so popular that it went into 120 editions by 1920 and was a textbook in schools. It deals especially with geological curiosities and the beauty of the Italian landscape. He commented on Italians who "know almost nothing about the natural beauty of our country; yet take delight when someone calls it a garden" and that the English fall in love with just one thing and devote their energies, emotions, and life to arrive dead or alive at the summit of mountains. His introduction to natural history declared that "man should never disappear from nature, nor should nature disappear from man". Stoppani, like many other clergyman naturalists of the period, was a supporter of the concordismo, a school of thought that sought to find concordance between the teachings of the bible and evidence from geology. He promoted the idea that Catholics needed to learn science and that the bible was to be interpreted rather than taken literally. He was also an important figure in "Catholic Alpinism", a movement that sought to use mountains to tell God's glory. Stoppani was however a critic of the ideas of evolution that Darwin's publication had brought into Europe.

Stoppani's works on palaeontology and geology include: In this last work the author discussed the glaciation of the Italian Alps and the history of Italy during the Pleistocene age. Stoppani described several species of fossil molluscs while other fossil species have been named in his honour, including Fedaiella stoppanii Marini 1896 (a snail), Placochelyanus stoppanii Oswald 1930, Lymnaea stoppanianus Coppi, 1876 and Gyraulus (Gyraulus) stoppanii (Sacco, 1886). Most of his collections are in the Museo di Storia Naturale, Milano, the building of which he was responsible for constructing as director from 1882 to 1891. Stoppani Glacier in Tierra del Fuego is named after him.

Stoppani was the great-uncle of Maria Montessori, famous for her work on education; he was the uncle of Maria's mother Renilde. The Italian painter Giovanni Battista Todeschini (1857–1938) was his nephew. An oil painting of Stoppani made by Todeschini is held in the Public Museum at Lecco.

Anthropocene
In 1873 Stoppani acknowledged the increasing power and impact of humanity on the Earth's systems and referred to the anthropozoic era an idea that was possibly based on George Perkins Marsh who lived in Italy and whose work, Man and Nature, was translated into Italian in 1872. In a later edition of Man and Nature published as The Earth as Modified by Human Action in 1874, Marsh noted: "In a former chapter I spoke of the influence of human action on the surface of the globe as immensely superior in degree to that exerted by brute animals, if not essentially different from it in kind. The eminent Italian geologist, Stoppani, goes further than I had ventured to do, and treats the action of man as a new physical element altogether sui generis. According to him, the existence of man constitutes a geological period which he designates as the Anthropozoic era. ‘The creation of man’, says he, ‘was the introduction of a new element into nature, of a force wholly unknown to earlier periods’." The idea of a new geological epoch, the anthropocene, was proposed in 2000 by Paul Crutzen and Eugene Stoermer. While some have pointed to the ideas of Marsh, Stoppani, Teilhard de Chardin and Vladimir Vernadsky (noösphere) as precursors, others have pointed out a distinction in the geological epoch proposed by Crutzen. Whereas the effects of man proposed in the past were small and gradual, the effects are sharply marked in Crutzen's anthropocene.
