Talk:Regions of Italy

Regions not quite what they seem
At some point we're going to have to deal with this: the various articles usually assume that the modern region is the same as the ancient Roman region. The error — that's what it is — is particularly important in the case of Lazio (not the same as the ancient Latium), Puglia (which should not be called Apulia, see current usage of English speakers who actually go there, travel agents, etc.; and Apulia in Antiquity was significantly different) and, the worst one, Calabria (which in Antiquity referred to a totally different area: to what is now southern Puglia: i.e., to the heel and not the toe).

I've already taken care of Umbria, q.v..

It would properly be best to have an article Regions of Roman Italy, with the 14 Augustan regions, and each of them would have their article, on the same pattern as the modern regions; the evolution of the regions and their names might best be treated in those articles.

Then all the links would have to be checked, much as someone/something these days is going thru Roman and changing some of them over to ancient Roman. Bill 08:31, 4 June 2005 (UTC)

Mulukanadu Brahmin

The Mulukanadu Brahmins are a sub-group of Telugu-speaking Vaidiki Smartha Brahmins. Variations of the name of the community include: Murikinadu, Muluknadu, Mulukanadu, Mulakanadu, Moolakanadu and Mulikinadu.

Etymology
The name Mulukanadu follows the usual conjoint formulation of Brahmin communities: the word Naadu means "country" in all the south Indian languages; this is suffixed to the country whence the community hails, being in this case "Muluka". Thus, Muluka+Naadu=Mulukanadu, "people of the Muluka land." Muluka or Mulaka is identified and it is also known as Moolaka or Moolaka desa along with Asmaka in Satavahana regime.

T. V. Venkatachala Sastry's study of caste genealogy and sociology titled Mulukanadu Brahmanaru, in Kannada language, traces the genealogy of the Mulukanadu sect and its origins, customs and prevailing cultures. Mulukanadu has been called variously across an assorted array of inscriptions found in the region. The Brahmin community from this sect has an incessant relationship with the Telugu language and it can be deduced that the region corresponding to the origin of this sect is the middle Pennar region which is based entirely in the Cuddapah district. The area is itself known under different names during different periods of time. Dommaranandyala plates inscribed by Punyakumara mentions this region as Hiranya Rashtra. The first inscription that explicitly talks about Mulkinadu is of the Rashtrakuta king Krishna in Pushpagiri as Mulkinadu naidu maharajyam. Along with Mulkinadu, various other locations in the vicinity are called Renadu, Marjavadi, Pottapinadu, Pedanadu and so on.

There is another inscription by the king Kayastha Ambadeva (this is the same king who reigned the southern region of the Andhra Pradesh under the Kakatiya ruler Rudrama Devi) dated Saka 1214 corresponding to 1292 CE. Along with Mulkinadu, he also refers to other regions Penavadi, Pulivendla (present day Pulivendula), Sirivodu and Pottapi.

Another king of the Kakatiya dynasty Prataparudra who ruled between 1289 CE and 1323 CE had got inscribed in his Chanduvayi inscription in the Siddhavatam Taluk of Cuddapah district about the region of Mulikinadu in the year 1319 CE. The fact that these inscriptions also refer to other regions that are close by attests that the region Mulkinadu or Mulukanadu is indeed a region in Cuddapah district.

Yahoo! Music

'''Yahoo! Music''' was a brand under which Yahoo! provided music services including Internet radio, a digital music store, music streaming service, media player software, and original programming.

Yahoo! Music Radio
In June 2001, after the bursting of the dot-com bubble, Yahoo! acquired LAUNCH Media, which was facing financial difficulty, for $12 million. In addition to a website with music news and videos, it provided an Internet radio service that allowed users to create personalized Internet radio stations by rating songs selected by a recommender system. Users were also able to listen to music from 150 preset Internet radio stations. The service offered both an advertising supported free version and a subscription fee-based premium version. At the time of the acquisition by Yahoo!, the service had 7.4 million users.

In December 2008, the service was integrated into CBS Radio due to a rise in royalty rates, with CBS taking full control of the service, including advertising and sales and adding compatibility with Firefox and Safari.

The service was integrated into iHeartRadio in June 2012, providing listeners exclusive access to music events such as the iHeartRadio Music Festival. The service was shut down in early 2014 without any announcement.

Musicmatch Jukebox
On September 14, 2004, Yahoo acquired Musicmatch Jukebox for $160 million. However, the service was not integrated well, instead stagnating.

Yahoo! Music Unlimited
In May 2005, Yahoo Music launched Yahoo! Music Unlimited, a music streaming service and digital music store. Users paid a subscription fee to access a library of over two million songs which could be either streamed or downloaded as DRM'd Windows Media Audio files and played from a computer in near CD quality sound. Subscribers could also download songs for transfer to CD or supported portable devices with an additional per-song payment. Yahoo! Music Jukebox was the software used for the service. The service required an active Internet connection. It was discontinued on September 30, 2008. The service was praised for its music quality, interface, and cheaper price than competitors.

Thomas McGuire

Thomas Buchanan McGuire Jr. (August 1, 1920 – January 7, 1945) was an American United States Army major who was killed in action while serving as a member of the United States Army Air Forces during World War II and posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor. He was one of the most decorated American fighter pilots and the second highest scoring American ace of the war.

McGuire was memorialized by the renaming of Fort Dix Army Air Force Base in Burlington County, New Jersey, to McGuire Air Force Base in 1948.

Early years
McGuire was born in Ridgewood, New Jersey, on August 1, 1920. He and his mother moved to Sebring, Florida in the late 1920s and McGuire graduated from Sebring High School in 1938. He enrolled at the Georgia Institute of Technology to study aeronautical engineering, where he played in the marching band, was a sergeant major in the ROTC cadet corps, and became a member of Beta Theta Pi fraternity. He left after his third year to enter the U.S. Army Air Corps Aviation Cadet Program on July 12, 1941.

United States Army Air Forces
McGuire would become one of the top scoring combat pilots in U.S. Air Force history. Civilian contractor Charles Lindbergh bunked with him for a time and flew as his wingman on several missions. Visitors recalled McGuire ordering Lindbergh around, telling him to run errands as though he were a servant. With a total of 38 enemy planes destroyed to his credit in World War II, McGuire was only two victories behind Major Richard Bong.

World War II
McGuire reported to the flying school in Corsicana, Texas, as an aviation cadet. He received further training in San Antonio, and was commissioned a second lieutenant and awarded his pilot wings at Kelly Field, Texas, on February 2, 1942. He was assigned to the 313th Pursuit Squadron at Selfridge Field, Michigan from February to May and the 56th Pursuit Squadron at Paine Field, Texas.

Combat missions
McGuire's first combat assignment was in June 1942, flying patrols over the Aleutian Islands in a Bell P-39 Airacobra while assigned to the 54th Fighter Group until October, before returning to Harding Field, Louisiana. While scoring no aerial victories in the Aleutians, McGuire was able to hone his skills as a pilot. In December 1942, he married Marilynn "Pudgy" Giesler shortly before he was transferred to Hamilton Field, California. In February 1943, he reported to Orange County Airport, California for transition training in the Lockheed P-38 Lightning.

In March 1943, McGuire was sent to the Southwest Pacific as a member of the 9th Fighter Squadron, 49th Fighter Group, Fifth Air Force, based in New Guinea. Two months later, the Fifth Air Force created an entire group of P-38s, the 475th Fighter Group in Australia at the behest of Lieutenant General George Kenney, the commanding officer of the Fifth Air Force. In mid-July, McGuire was transferred to the 431st Fighter Squadron, 475th Fighter Group. On August 18, 1943, Lieutenant McGuire was part of a group flying top cover for bombers striking at Wewak, New Guinea. Nearing their target, the fighters were attacked by Japanese aircraft. During the battle, McGuire shot down two Nakajima Ki-43 "Oscars" and one Kawasaki Ki-61 "Tony." On the following day, near the same location, he downed two more Oscars. This established him as an ace in two days. In September, he was promoted to first lieutenant.

McGuire's career nearly came to an end on October 17, 1943, when he scrambled from Dubodura, New Guinea to intercept approaching Japanese bombers being escorted by Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighters over Oro Bay, New Guinea. During the ensuing dogfight, McGuire observed at least seven Zeros attacking a lone P-38 that was trailing smoke. McGuire dove into the enemy fighters and quickly shot down three. The remaining four Zeros were able to attack McGuire and severely damage his aircraft. With his controls out, McGuire decided to bail out but as he exited the aircraft, his parachute harness snagged on something in the cockpit. From 12,000 to 5,000 ft McGuire struggled to free himself from the stricken fighter. Finally McGuire was able to free himself and deploy his parachute at 1,000 ft. He landed safely in the water and was rescued by a PT boat. McGuire suffered a 7.7 mm bullet wound to his wrist and numerous other injuries including some broken ribs. He spent six weeks in the hospital before he returned to his unit. For his actions on this day he was awarded a Silver Star and a Purple Heart. In late December, he was promoted to captain and became the operation officer of the 431st Fighter Squadron.

In early May 1944, McGuire became the commanding officer of the 431st Fighter Squadron. McGuire wrote a book, Combat Tactics In The Southwest Pacific Area, for Fifth Air Force on 4 May 1944. On May 18, he was promoted to major. In December, McGuire became the Operation Officer of the 475th Fighter Group. On December 25–26, 1944, he downed seven Japanese fighter aircraft in just two days over Luzon, Philippines.

Last mission and death
January 7, 1945, McGuire took off from Dulag Airfield on Leyte and led a group of four P-38s – himself, Major Jack Rittmayer (who was visiting the area from the Thirteenth Air Force), Captain Edwin Weaver, and Lieutenant Douglas Thropp – on a fighter sweep over northern Negros Island in the central Philippines. Their aim was to gain victories. McGuire desperately wanted to pass Bong's score of 40 kills. Descending through cloud cover, McGuire's flight circled a Japanese airfield at Fabrica and then proceeded to a second airstrip at Manapla (also referred to as Carolina). As they approached Manapla, they were confronted by a lone Ki-43 "Oscar", which immediately engaged McGuire's flight.

Flying in the number-three position, Lt. Thropp saw the Oscar trying to attack him in a head-on pass. Thropp broke hard left. The Japanese pilot turned with him and fell into position behind him while firing. Major Rittmayer, flying as Thropp's wingman, turned sharply towards and began firing on the attacker. McGuire saw the Oscar was being engaged by Rittmayer and turned to face an imminent threat to the flight from the opposite direction. McGuire and his flight had encountered Warrant Officer Akira Sugimoto (杉本明, Sugimoto Akira), who was an instructor pilot with some 3,000+ hours in type. Sugimoto broke away from Thropp and Rittmayer and turned to find McGuire and his wingman Ed Weaver directly in front of him. Sugimoto was easily able to catch up and attack them from behind.

As Sugimoto approached Weaver from behind, Weaver radioed he was attacked and cut inside of the turn to present a more difficult shot. McGuire eased up on his turn rate in an effort to draw the attacker off of his wingman and onto himself. Sugimoto took the bait and switched his attack to McGuire. As Sugimoto approached from behind, McGuire rapidly increased his turn rate. This extremely dangerous maneuver, performed at an altitude of only 300 ft (contrary to McGuire's own dictates never to engage at a low altitude ), caused McGuire's P-38 to stall. It snap rolled inverted and nosed down into the ground. Despite the low altitude, McGuire nearly pulled out successfully; had he jettisoned his drop tanks at the start of the dogfight, he might have managed it. McGuire was killed on impact. Sugimoto was soon hit by gunfire from Rittmayer and forced to crash-land in the jungle where he was killed by Filipino guerrillas. Minutes later a Ki-84 "Frank" flown by Technical Sergeant Mizunori Fukuda avenged the loss of Sugimoto by attacking Rittmayer in a head-on attack. Rittmayer's cockpit was riddled with bullets and his plane was shot down, killing him. Fukuda's plane was soon heavily damaged by the two other remaining American planes but he successfully hard-landed back at his airbase. He survived the war.

McGuire's crash was witnessed by Filipinos who immediately rushed to the scene and secured his body so it would not be captured. In 1949, his remains were recovered by the U.S. Army and returned to the United States. He was buried with full military honors at Arlington National Cemetery on May 17, 1950. A memorial was erected at McGuire's fatal crash site on Negros Island in 2007, placed by aviation archaeologist and former fighter pilot David Mason. McGuire was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor due to sacrificing himself with his dangerous turn that ended up saving his wingman's life.

Military awards
McGuire's military decorations and awards include:

Medal of Honor citation

 * Rank and organization: Major, U.S. Army Air Forces, Fifth Air Force
 * Place and date: Over Luzon, Philippine Islands, December 25–26, 1944
 * Entered service at: Sebring, Florida
 * Birth: Ridgewood, New Jersey
 * G.O. No.: 24, March 7, 1946

"He fought with conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity over Luzon, Philippine Islands. Voluntarily, he led a squadron of 15 P-38's as top cover for heavy bombers striking Mabalacat Airdrome, where his formation was attacked by 20 aggressive Japanese fighters. In the ensuing action he repeatedly flew to the aid of embattled comrades, driving off enemy assaults while himself under attack and at times outnumbered 3 to 1, and even after his guns jammed, continuing the fight by forcing a hostile plane into his wingman's line of fire. Before he started back to his base he had shot down 3 Zeros. The next day he again volunteered to lead escort fighters on a mission to strongly defended Clark Field. During the resultant engagement he again exposed himself to attacks so that he might rescue a crippled bomber. In rapid succession he shot down 1 aircraft, parried the attack of 4 enemy fighters, 1 of which he shot down, single-handedly engaged 3 more Japanese, destroying 1, and then shot down still another, his 38th victory in aerial combat. On 7 January 1945, while leading a voluntary fighter sweep over Los Negros Island, he risked an extremely hazardous maneuver at low altitude in an attempt to save a fellow flyer from attack, crashed, and was reported missing in action. With gallant initiative, deep and unselfish concern for the safety of others, and heroic determination to destroy the enemy at all costs, Maj. McGuire set an inspiring example in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service."

Talk:Vast right-wing conspiracy

Echo Chamber
Echo chamber links here. Why? 195.7.54.2 16:37, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Conservative Media
What/who is this term referring to? Its used a couple times in the article as a nebulous entity. Is there a better way to say this? If not, it seems to not be needed. 172.131.58.54 08:39, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Dittos. There doesn't seem to be any reference to the secret decoder wheels. I got one.  Did you? ;-) Jlambert 02:04, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

 * "Conservative Media" refers to media that is conservative...don't see how it could be any more clear. --Tim4christ17 21:44, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

 * So...just Fox? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dubc0724 (talk • contribs) 07:53, August 11, 2006

Considering the EVIDENCE, how can anyone state that any of the major media outlets are "Conservative"? Or is it just by comparison?

Current Usage
This section is not NPOV, it only shows one side of the issue. The Ken Starr investigation did not discredit the notion of a "conspiracy" as there were many prior attempts to smear the Clintons that turned out to be baseless. There are commentators on the Left who have stated that, for all intents and purposes, her statement was correct. --George100 01:51, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Very true, I cleaned it up some. C56C 21:51, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Yes, there are numerous commentators on the Left who have supported Hillary Clinton's claim. Of course, that doesn't make her claim any more accurate.  One could just as readily point out the numerous commentators on the Right who think she was just pounding the pavement for sympathy points. Corrected for MASSIVE errors --- the preceding version couldn't possibly have been written by anyone who'd done research beyond surfing a few blogs. SOURCE material, people...go to the SOURCE, not to the OPINIONS. Calbeck 16 March 2007

Validity? Please!
How does Richard Mellon Scaife financing conservative groups and causes validate the "Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy"? I mean, by that logic, there most definately is a "Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy". I mean, George Soros makes Scaife look like an amateur when it comes to throwing scads of money at political groups. Soros dedictated himself to ousting a sitting president, for pete's sake. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 131.50.151.8 (talk) 09:15, 13 December 2006 (UTC).

 * The difference in this case is that Soros used his money to fund legitimate political groups during an election while Scaife bankrolled various investigations to dig up unrelated sleaze right from the start of Clinton's presidency. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.74.86.152 (talk) 17:08, March 19, 2007

 * Mudslinging goes back to Sally Hemings, and before that, Jefferson's smear campaign against Washington. Time alone has rendered it nearly honorable. As for legitimate, I don't see how Astroturfing to get McCain-Feingold passed qualifies. Somercet (talk) 09:58, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

This article is badly misguided
This article is badly misguided. "Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy" is not a real thing, but rather a famous phrase uttered by someone. It's worthy of an article, but the article should just discuss the phrase, who said, reactions to it regarding its appropriateness and validity, and its use in the media and language and popular culture. But in addition to this, the article delves into the details of various Clinton administration controversies, duplicating and sometimes even going into greater detail than the actual articles on those controversies - Whitewater (controversy), Troopergate, Paula Jones, etc. Then the article debates some of these controversies - also inappropriate. And the article misses some basic facts about later reactions to the phrase, most importantly from Hillary (she later said that the word 'conspiracy' was poorly chosen, since all that went on was pretty above ground, but she stands by the rest of it).

So, all the explanatory detail should be moved and merged into the individual controversy articles where it belongs. The debate about the controversies needs to be removed; the debate about the phrase can stay. Models of what this article should be like include I did not have sexual relations with that woman and Mission Accomplished.

Unless there are objections, I intend to modify the article accordingly. Wasted Time R 01:18, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

 * So done. Article definitely needs further improvement, however.   Wasted Time R 23:56, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Your approach sounds sensible. I agree that the article should focus on the phrase and not go into excessive detail about debates over the various controversies. All that's really needed is an overview of background material to give context to the phrase. As you say, those controversies are covered in detail at their own pages, and readers who are interested in learning more can go to those articles.--Eloil 21:30, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

Hit piece on the Clintons and apologetics for conservatives
Such sections as the absurdly-titled "Validity, or the lack thereof" and the plugging of "In 2005, professional conservative author Byron York played on the phrase with his book The Vast Left Wing Conspiracy: The Untold Story of How Democratic Operatives, Eccentric Billionaires, Liberal Activists, and Assorted Celebrities Tried to Bring Down a President — and Why They'll Try Even Harder Next Time." make this article POV and basically an apologetic section for conservatives and critics of the Clintons.--Folksong 05:53, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

 * I disagree. "Validity, or the lack thereof" tries to examine the accuracy of the phrase, which even Hillary Clinton agrees was somewhat inaccurate.  If you want to improve the section, go ahead.  The following section shows some usages of, and references to, the phrase in popular culture.  Nothing wrong with that.  The York title, as with many books by professional conservatives, is so hyperbolic that it undermines its own argument all by itself.   Wasted Time R 10:57, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

 * This article has serious issues in terms of NPOV; it looks like it was written by a Republican. The reality is that there was a coordinated smear campaign against Clinton organized by the Republican party, and they attempted to impeach Clinton over a blow job, and this has more or less been shown - Republicans pushed for investigation after investigation, continued to produce anti-Clinton smear literature, ect. The article makes it sound like this was not the result of the Republican party attacking President Clinton, which it was, though I think most intelligent people would agree it was obviously not a well-kept secret. Titanium Dragon 14:26, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Yes, there was a coordinated campaign against Clinton from the earliest days. It was organized by professional Clinton-haters, who had some overlap with the Republican Party but in many cases were out there in their own universe.  And some of the Clinton would-be scandals, such as Mena Airport, Troopergate, and Paula Jones, came out of this campaign.  But other Clinton scandals came from elsewhere, such as Whitewater, which was driven by The New York Times, and Lewinsky/impeachment, which was brought on by Clinton himself when he foolishly decided to lie in front of a grand jury, rather than admit a truth which would not have surprised anyone or done him much harm.  The article needs to make these distinctions.   Wasted Time R 17:26, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

 * This is very true, though the latter impeachment thing was pretty much the Republicans attacking Bill Clinton and the Democratic party. It didn't work and everyone thought it was stupid, which was why it failed in the end. Titanium Dragon 22:17, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

There was no conspiracy. Not only did Clinton lie to a federal judge (committing perjury, which he was eventually disbarred for,) he received a blow-job during a national security meeting (a federal offense.) He also did nothing for the economy as President. That was the internet boom and Congress.

With Rush's typical tongue in cheek
This phrase is entirely biased. First of all, it purports that Rush Limbaugh is a comedian, which is an OPINION, not a FACT. He is admittedly a "right-wing water carrier", not a comedian. Second, it attempts to delve the depths of Rush Limbaugh's mind and ASSumes he is being ironic when, for all we know, he is being, for once, blatantly honest. RARoth 22:44, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Taken care of. RARoth 18:26, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Michael Savage, Al Franken, Michael Moore, and so many others are in the entertainment industry, they often state this on the air and in their publications (even though Mr. Franken is currently running for public office, his career has been in entertainment).

Just because I don't laugh at Al Franken's jokes doesn't mean he's not a funny comedian--comedy is subjective! Just because another doesn't laugh at Rush Limbaugh doesn't mean he's not a funny comedian--we all like different stuff! Heck, some people even laugh at Ann Coulter's jokes!

Too much Political Correctness is killing American's rights to free speech. We either have the right of free expression or not. If we have the right to not be offended by others, then all of us better just sit down and shut up because somebody somewhere will be offended no matter what we say...

 * Is this post even related to the article? J.Rly (talk) 04:55, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Right
Rush Limbaugh is not even talked about in this article! so i recommend that the previous post be cut as it has nothing to do with the article and this is not a talk page to debate your Polictial ideas FYI no one here cares. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.13.118.232 (talk) 21:13, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

further comment
The article mentions the attacks on Clinton but not the many more on Obama. And i belive that David Brock said that it is not a "conspiracy" but that it is all in plain view.99.13.118.232 (talk) 21:52, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Vast left-wing conspiracy
This should be added: "Kellyanne Conway says Kavanaugh allegations feel like "a vast left-wing conspiracy"" (https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/kellyanne-conway-says-kavanaugh-allegations-feel-like-a-vast-left-wing-conspiracy/ar-AAAzvGw?li=BBnb7Kz) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.160.236.29 (talk) 21:07, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Ill-defined and outdated
Hey. We all know about Project 2025 by now, which is just the most recent fruit that grew out of this conspiracy. Others being the no-abortion policy which was in the works for 50 years, renewed attempts to establish a state religion, the plans to process migrants in concentration camps, etc. This article is ill-defined and reduces the topic (of the existing reactionary movement in the US) into a laughing stock (of allegations by Clinton who mentioned that movement in the context of the Levinsky affair). --Enyavar (talk) 11:52, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Gaspard Dughet

Suggested move
There are four variants of this name (Google hits):

 * Gaspar Poussin (293)
 * Gaspar Dughet (170)
 * Gaspard Poussin (593)
 * Gaspard Dughet (658)

Dughet was adopted by Nicolas Poussin, hence the family name change. This article, based on the 1911 Britannica, calls the painter Gaspar Poussin. The top Google hits for this name are WP mirrors. The current Britannica calls him Gaspard Dughet. The category on commons is also called "Gaspard Dughet". Unfortunately, I created a redirect Gaspard Dughet pointing to this article, so it now takes an admin to move the article to what I believe to be the correct location. Rl 08:43, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hi Olgeralbanian, {{welcome}} to wikipedia. Thanks for working on Albanian literature, but please edit Albanian literature, which is the correct title, not Albanian Literature. Kappa 08:43, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Copyright
Please note that Wikipedia has a strict copyright policy outlined at Copyright.

You would appear to have added copyright material at Onufri and duplicated it at The Icon Painter Onufri.

Firstly, you can make the second article go to the first using a redirect like this:

 * 1) REDIRECT Onufri

rather than duplicating it

Secondly, we have had to mark both of these as probable copyright violations. 17:57, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Untagged images
Hi, I noticed you have uploaded quite a few images without copyright tags (the list is here). As with text, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted images, and uploaded images need to be tagged so that we know whether they're OK to use (see Image copyright tags for reference). Could you go through these images and fill in the image tags?

Alternatively, if you could leave a note at my talk page telling me where you got the images, I'd be glad to fill in the copyright tags for you. Thanks! Junkyard prince 19:41, 31 July 2005 (UTC)

Image:000 0058.jpeg
Thank you for uploading Image:000 0058.jpeg. Its copyright status is unclear, so it may have to be deleted. Please leave a note on the image page about the source of the image. See Image copyright tags for a list of copyright tags that you can use. Thank you.

Image:DerKalase.jpg has been listed for deletion
P.S.: Apparently Wikipedia is really cracking down on unsourced images, so please tag them very soon if you want to preserve them. --Calton | Talk 03:29, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Kostandin Kristoforidhi
A tag has been placed on Kostandin Kristoforidhi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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

WWE RAW / Dudley Boyz
Wikipedia naming conventions states that articles should be named after the most common / best known name. The Dudley Boyz have been known as The Dudley Boyz for about a decade and as Team 3D for about a week. We don't move articles just because the subject of the article has taken a new name. In addition, the Dudley Boyz article is not just about the tag team, it's about the ECW stable. Furthermore, there is already an article at Team 3D, and Team 3D (professional wrestling) will not return many search results.

WWE refers to RAW simply as "RAW", not "Monday Night RAW". McPhail 17:21, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Hey. Is there any chance you can put on the pages of the logos you uploaded for the WWE RAW article the source of where you got the logos from. If you don't do them soon, they're bound to be deleted for lack of source. --Oakster 22:21, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Wjzycw46alt.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:Wjzycw46alt.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Fair use rationale for Image:Bud-shootout-logo.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Bud-shootout-logo.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Unspecified source for Image:Bud-shootout-logo.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Bud-shootout-logo.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self-no-disclaimers tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 15:35, 16 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Image:Bud-shootout-logo.gif
I have tagged Image:Bud-shootout-logo.gif as orphaned fairuse. In order for the image to be kept at Wikipedia, it must be included in at least one article. If this image is being used as a link target instead of displayed inline, please add article name to the image description page to prevent it being accidentally marked as orphaned again.

Image:LWO.JPG
I have tagged Image:LWO.JPG as no rationale, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Some examples can be found at Use rationale examples. Please also consider using or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags/Non-free. Thank you.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:91Stanley.JPG}
Thank you for uploading Image:91Stanley.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:
 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

WCYB and WMYT
You're absolutely right. The three relevant factors for listing a TV station's location are its city of license, studio location and transmitter location. If any of those are in different states (TN/VA for WCYB or NC/SC for WMYT), the station should be listed with both states. I don't know if there's been any actual discussion of this point, but that's the argument I'd make. JTRH (talk) 01:49, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

Out-of-market cable carriage
Hi! Just a thought/suggestion: Out-of-market cable viewers are a very small part of a TV station's audience, and I'm not sure they're even included in its ratings. For example, I don't think WBTV, its advertisers, or A.C. Nielsen pay much (if any) attention to how many viewers the station may have in Tennessee. Researching exhaustive lists of which out-of-market systems carry a particular station, and keeping them current, seems to me to be an awful lot of work on a pretty small part of what a reader needs to know about the overall topic.

(I scoured the ATSC 3.0 standards for any mention of PSIP and came up empty.)

William Nelson, 1st Earl Nelson

William Nelson, 1st Earl Nelson, 2nd Duke of Bronte (20 April 1757 – 28 February 1835), was an Anglican clergyman and an older brother of Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson.

Life
Born in Burnham Thorpe, he was a son of the Reverend Edmund Nelson (1722–1802), and the Nelson family had been settled in Norfolk for many generations. The Reverend Edmund Nelson was Rector of Hillborough and of Burnham Thorpe in that county and married Catherine Suckling, whose maternal grandmother Mary was the sister of Robert Walpole and of Horatio Walpole, 1st Baron Walpole of Wolterton. Their fifth but third-surviving son was the renowned naval commander Horatio Nelson.

He was educated at Christ's College, Cambridge, matriculating in 1774, graduating B.A. 1778, M.A. 1781, D.D. 1802. He was ordained deacon in 1779 and priest in 1781.

He became rector of Brandon Parva in Norfolk in January 1784, and went to sea that year as a naval chaplain on HMS Boreas (commanded by his brother the future Admiral), but obtained his discharge in October 1786 and returned to Brandon Parva. He became rector of Hilborough in 1797, and a prebendary of Canterbury Cathedral in 1803.

William Nelson succeeded by a special remainder, which included his father's and sisters' male issue, to one of Horatio Nelson's baronies (Baron Nelson, of the Nile and of Hilborough in the County of Norfolk, created in 1801) upon the latter's death at the Battle of Trafalgar on 21 October 1805, as well as to the dukedom of Bronte, of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. A month later, on 20 November 1805, in honour of his late brother's achievements, he was created Earl Nelson and Viscount Merton, both of Trafalgar and of Merton in the County of Surrey, again with a special remainder including the male issue of his sisters.

He was reportedly an ambitious man, and used Nelson's mistress Emma Hamilton's generosity and hospitality when it served his purpose, including hosting his son Horatio at her home during the Eton school holidays, but cut both her and Horatia Nelson, Emma's daughter by Lord Nelson, off after Nelson's death. He did not respect his brother's wishes to look after Horatia.

He moved to Trafalgar Park after Standlynch Park was renamed thus by an Act of Parliament in 1814.

He died without surviving male issue, Horatio (recently made Viscount Trafalgar) having died at the age of 19 of tuberculosis in 1808, and all of his British titles passed to Thomas Bolton, the son of his sister Susannah. The Sicilian dukedom of Bronte passed to his daughter Charlotte, wife of Samuel Hood, 2nd Baron Bridport.

There is a memorial to him in the crypt at St Paul's Cathedral.

Family
Nelson married firstly Sarah Yonge, daughter of Rev. Henry Yonge, on 9 November 1786. They had two children:
 * Charlotte Mary Nelson (1787–1873), 3rd Duchess of Bronte, married Samuel Hood, 2nd Baron Bridport
 * Horatio Nelson (1788–1808), styled Viscount Merton and Viscount Trafalgar

After Sarah's death on 13 April 1828, at the age of 71, Nelson married the much younger Hilare Barlow, daughter of Admiral Sir Robert Barlow, on 26 March 1829.

Talk:Multi-exposure HDR capture

First HDR paper
The article cites a 1993 talk by Mann as the first presentation of HDR algorithms. But there's no public link or documentation to support this. I suggest replacing this citation with the following early HDR paper: https://repository.upenn.edu/cis_reports/248/ Aaronh (talk) 20:25, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Added more example exposures
I've added some example exposures of the HDRI. I can't get the positioning looking nice though. If someone else wants to have a go then be my guest. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deanpemberton (talk • contribs)
 * I think it wasn't you who added the picture at the beginning of the Article, but IMO, that should be removed. The colors are vomitive, and it isn't a representative example of what HDR is. While I don't like it very much either, the NY shot further down the page is much better in this regard. At the very least, I think, they should be swapped. ~ Polymeris (talk)

Move discussion in progress
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:High dynamic range which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 21:18, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Even though I have been a watcher and participant, this is a confusing situation which I'd need to spend much more time to figure out. Point being is that it is unlikely to obtain the required feedback. IMO proposed changes and discussion regarding them should be located and centered at the page(s) involved. North8000 (talk) 21:41, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

Splitting the page
This page is currently mixing multiple topics related to HDR. The main topic developed in the page is the technique of capturing and combining multiple exposures in order to increase the dynamic range that the camera can capture. This topic is big enough to have its own page. Other HDR topics can either be moved to the general page about High dynamic range or to a topic-specific pages such as the High-dynamic-range rendering page or the page about the newer HDR display technology. This will allow every topic to be more deeply developed and this will also reduce the confusion between the different topics. — SH4ever (talk) 18:01, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * With all the edits and the title change, no part requires splitting anymore. SH4ever (talk) 21:23, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

Requested move 18 December 2021

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Moved. The proposer has asked at that this request be treated as WP:OTHEROPTIONS suggests. So the possible options as nominated by the proposer, editor SH4ever, are as follows: For now, the title will conform to WP:CONCISE and renamed to Multi-exposure HDR capture. Thanks and kudos to the nom for your input, and Happy, Healthy Editing! (nac by page mover)  P.I. Ellsworth  - ed.  put'r there 19:00, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
 * HDR image capture from multiple exposures
 * HDR capture from multiple exposures
 * Multi-exposure High Dynamic Range capture
 * Multi-exposure HDR capture

High-dynamic-range imaging → HDR image capture from multiple exposures

The current naming is not good because high dynamic range imaging is a broader topic that includes capture/creation, encoding and displaying/printing. Except of some minor parts of the lead, this article is entirely focused on the specific technique of capturing HDR images by taking and combining multiple exposures. The broader HDR imaging topic is actually discussed in High dynamic range. This article is actually a split of HDR imaging and should thus have a more appropriate naming. SH4ever (talk) 20:55, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
 * In the past HDR imaging was nearly only about the multi-exposures technique, so the article naming made some sense at that time but today HDR imaging goes far beyond that (especially with the advent of HDR-TV), making the old naming no longer valid. SH4ever (talk) 21:14, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
 * In this book, HDR imaging is treated as a broader topic that includes HDR capture from multiple exposures and also other topics such as HDR displays. At the time the book was written, HDR display only meant "a display with a high contrast". Today the term "HDR display" has an additional meaning and is mainly used for "displays compatible with HDR-TV". HDR-TV is one more topic included by the broader topic HDR imaging; as this 2016 book shows. SH4ever (talk) 15:19, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

For short: "HDR capture from multiple exposures" is a subset of "High-dynamic-range imaging". This Wikipedia page is about "HDR capture from multiple exposures". The Wikipedia page about "High-dynamic-range imaging" is High dynamic range. SH4ever (talk) 17:28, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Other propositions:

HDR capture from multiple exposures: Shorter, still recognizable, less confusions (the can be used for capturing both still images and videos). SH4ever (talk) 15:23, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

Alternatively, the page can be named to something like "Multi-exposure High Dynamic Range capture" or "Multi-exposure HDR capture" to make the title shorter and maybe more recognizable. SH4ever (talk) 21:22, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

Lead after the move
After the move, the lead should be slightly changed to fit the new name. I made that change in this draft: Draft:HDR capture from multiple exposures. The rest of the article doesn't need change. SH4ever (talk) 16:51, 26 December 2021 (UTC) The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Drabacks
There is a benefits section, so there should also be a drawback section, not just scattered drawbacks. Jidanni (talk) 02:43, 2 December 2022 (UTC)

Gitega Province

Gitega is one of the 18 provinces of Burundi. Its capital is Gitega, which is also the national capital. It has a population of 725,223 as of 2008 and an area of 1979 km2.

History
After Burundi attained full independence on 1 July 1962, there was a military coup d'état in which the king was overthrown and monarchy disbanded in 1966. When King Ntare V tried to reinstate his kingdom, he was assassinated in 1972 at the Royal Palace of Gitega.

On 26 April 1996, army attacks at Buhoro killed some 230 civilians. On 21 October, some 70 Tutsi students were burnt alive at Kibimba. In March 2007, President Pierre Nkurunziza announced that Burundi had plans to transfer the capital from Bujumbura to Gitega. According to him, the central location of the city makes it "an ideal place to better serve the majority of the population". The capital was moved on 24 December 2018.

Geography
Gitega Province is located in central Burundi. It has an area of 1979 km2 and has a population density of 366.5 individuals per square kilometre. Gitega is a central highland province along with Kayanza and Muramvya. It is south of Ngozi Province, east of Kayanza Province, Muramvya Province and Mwaro Province, north of Bururi Province and Rutana Province, west of Ruyigi Province and Karuzi Province, and south of Ngozi Province. Most of Gitega Province lies in the Kirimiro natural region. The extreme east is in the Buyogoma natural region.

Communes
