Talk:Victoria Bitter

Packaging
I've been outside of australia for 3 years but when I was last there you could get VB in 750ml bottles (tallies), 250ml bottles (throwbacks) and 1 litre cans shaped like kegs. that last one may have been a promotional thing but I don't believe the list of packaging in this article is correct. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.46.226.92 (talk • contribs)

 * Down in Victoria 750ml bottles are known as longnecks, and they are still available. I have never seen a 250ml bottle, nor do I know anyone who would be seen dead with such a poofy little bottle! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.94.135.59 (talk • contribs)

 * Well the idea of the 'poofy little bottle' is:
 * A) You can keep it cold
 * B) You can skull it

 * Up in Dublin 500ml cans are the standard as are pint glasses. Here nobody would be caught dead with a pissy little 365ml bottle nor a 375ml Schoona. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.46.230.53 (talk • contribs)

 * You smash Throwies you moron!!!!
 * 24 throwies for $25 is a sweet deal, and always a good start to a night!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.222.154.146 (talk • contribs)

PS you've been out of Aus for THREE years mate, things change here, Longies are 800mls now, and you've always been able to buy throwies in NSW! Stay in cold Britian drinking your "manly" 500ml cans you idiot, dont you know temperatures get above 40 degrees for a fair part of the summer months here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.222.154.146 (talk • contribs)

 * We're arguing on the same side you drongo. It's the victorian who was disputing the existence of throwbacks.  I was trying to have them added the article.  My remark referring to the size of pints/cans in Dublin was in response to his idiotic remark that no-one would be caught dead with a 'pissy little throwback' in victoria.  I was demonstrating a flaw in his logic which implied that bigger is always better and a throwback is for pussies.  Furthermore, if you'd bothered to read my response to that mexican, my argument was that a throwback can be kept cold and you can skull it!

 * Furthermore, having lived in Brisbane for 25 years I know exactly how warm it gets. To suggest it is above 40 degrees in NSW for a large portion of the summer months is an incredible exageration!  The avg daily high temp in brisbane in summer is 29.  It might get to 40 once or twice each year... but most years it doesn't get that hot at all!

 * I'll be back in Australia in 3 weeks time for my annual holiday there. I'll see if I can find an 800ml VB tallie. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.254.168.102 (talk • contribs)

 * oh. And Ireland isn't in Britain you moron. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.254.168.102 (talk • contribs)

Sorry Champ, i see your point, i should've checked the page history before shooting my mouth off but i'm an irrational New South Welshman and it pisses me off when people bad mouth my throwies!!!

"oh. And Ireland isn't in Britain you moron" - you should understand being an Aussie how much we love grouping all those northerners together, Northern Irelands part of Britian - I love making gross generalisations - Actually Northern Ireland isn't part of Britain. Britain is the name of the arrow shaped island which contains Scotland England and Wales, infact there is no such country as 'Britain'. The name of the country in it's shortened form is 'The United Kingdom' or simply the 'UK'. This also includes Northern Ireland. - So there!

 * Yep, that's why they constantly imply NZ is part of Australia or that we're all the same.

I haven't herd the term "throwies", but in Victoria they are known as "Grenades". They are very hard to find in shops. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.79.8.191 (talk) 23:04, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

UK Students drinking VB mixed with gin
whatever happened to that particular comment? I find it amusing, please bring it back! Jivesucka 16:27, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

VB on tap
From my experiences down in Mexico its harder to get VB on tap there (the so called home of VB) than it is anywhere else in Aus.
 * Yep. That's because tooheys went around and bought a large percentage of the pubs down there.  Pubs owned by tooheys don't sell VB =)  It's quite funny actually.  CUB had to buy a bunch of pubs in retaliation.

For a while last year they Upped the Size of Throwies to a 285ml middy pack. That was pretty sweet.

I guarantee you'll be able to find a 800ml Longie mate - Thats standard issue across all CUB Longnecks these days! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.222.154.146 (talk • contribs)

 * I can get VB in Dublin. We have 1 bottlo i'm aware of that sells it.  Costs about AUD$5 for 1 stubby but I happily pay it over drinking the european crap on offer.  Would prefer a good XXXX tho. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.254.168.102 (talk • contribs)

New South Welshpeople, get a dog up ya! Calling Victorians, Mexicans is a stupid Americanism that has no place in the Commonwealth of Australia, not to mention it being racist. And anyway Tooheys has lost a large percentage of pubs that they bought because their beer was crap and have gone back to CUB. 203.208.69.48 17:30, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

Victorian is a 'race'? Wow ... Anyhow, in NSW 250mls are also commonly called 'twist tops'. Htra0497

Firstly, I've only ever heard of the 250ml ones called "grenades", but I guess different regions different slang.

What I wanted to talk to everyone about was the "Interstate and humorously," part, I don't want to delete it because it is something that can never be proven, but I mean really, do people actually call VB "Vaginal Backwash", "Vile Brew, or "Virgin Breaker"? "A pot of Virgin Breaker please".

Other than 17-year old school kid who think they are cool, I doubt most of this slang is actually in use, and would probably be better removed from wikipedia. Just my opinion Disco

Actually they are quite commonly used... I'd say Vaginal Backwash, and Vomit Beer are the most common

It gets caled "cats piss" a lot round here. but then again i am a bit of a bumpkin i suspose. Raya 85 13:24, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

A joke????
FROM ARTICLE: The most recent advertising campaign features David Boon, although an number of other ads are occasionally screened, such as one which promotes Australia's love of barbecuing meat, including its national emblems, the kangaroo and emu.

This to me suggests there's an ad which shows the barbecueing of kangaroo and emu meat. It also implies Australians love barbecueing of kangaroo and emu meat. I believe neither to be true. Was this added as a joke or it just clumsy wording? I don't watch enough commercial TV to know if a BV ad with barbecueing exists. Asa01 03:20, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

 * VB's latest ad campaigns have been spoofing the 'old' "For a hard earned thirst ..." campaign so yes, it is a bit of a joke (the ads not wiki article). Htra0497 16:50 30 June 2006 (AET)

 * Does the advert jokingly suggest people barbecuing Kangaroos and Emus? Asa01 07:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

 * I've seen the ad, it does have a reference to being the only country in the world where people can eat the animals on the coat of arms. Look on youtube for the full ad. Tim Chuma 05:01, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Nothing wrong with BBQing kangaroo. It's damn tasty. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)

Tinnies?
Do people really say this? I've never heard a single person say tinnie. I'm a victorian and have spent a reasonable amount of time in city and country pubs and usually only hear of cans, stubbies and longnecks. Definitely never 'tinnies'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.243.99.2 (talk) 11:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Tinnies is what i call tinnies. Applies to all canned beer, not just VB —Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.27.67.17 (talk) 09:27, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Cans are called tins in some parts of the UK so i guess its plausible that it could be called Tinnies down under 134.36.93.46 (talk) 17:08, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Centeal West NSW's has tinnies 114.72.193.53 (talk) 11:40, 2 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Born in 1968 I recall that tinnies was common slang in the 1970s and early 1980s for a can of beer. Cans seem to be less common today, and the word itself seems very outdated. I haven't heard it for many years and it sounds very 70s to me. "Tinnie" today more commonly refers to a small aluminium boat. Format (talk) 04:44, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Name Change, now no longer Victoria Bitter
Fosters have now rebranded the product as "VB" with only a passing reference to the former name "Victoria Bitter" on their website. This is immediately obvious if you visit the front page

Suggest changing the title of the article to VB and redirect any link to Victoria Bitter to the page. --MichaelGG (talk) 12:45, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

They have switched between "VB" and "Victoria Bitter" a number of times. "VB" oroginally stood for "Victoria Brewery", not "Bitter". The 1907 bottle had "VB" in vertical red letters and "Bitter Ale" across the roundel. There is little history about VB in the article. It was one of the original six breweries that formed CUB. There is no mention of the exact type of beer and how it has changed over the years. It started as a red ale, and was probably bittered with EKG hops. The present beer is probably bittered with PoR, and a smaller amount of partially aged/oxidized EKG, to give it the strong bitterness, but without the lingering alpha-acid bite.203.219.70.31 (talk) 04:23, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

Citations Needed, please.
The article makes a few strong assertions in the opening paragraph about market share etc. There are no citations given, except one (which I cannot source) for 2009 sales. Also, we needing reference for the assertion that the name change is real, and is has to do with removing the connection to Victoria. Also needs citations for availability overseas, and nicknames. In History section - the 60s advertising campaign, Paul Hester reference, David Boon reference, wortstream brewing process, packaging, claim that 500ml cans are drunk by trade workers at lunch (WTF?), killer can. In VB Gold section - 2009 sales, quote from Anthony Heraghty, and 2008 world cup ads. VB RAW - no references. Marketing and Promotion section - drinking in NZ, David Boon (again), sponsor Kangaroos, Tri-Series, cricket sponsorship.

That's it. And maybe rewrite it a bit. If I cared more, I'd do it myself, but presumably the PR people for Fosters have someone paid to do this sort of thing. 60.240.207.146 (talk) 09:49, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 6 September 2016
Please remove the below due to page vandalism

VB is among the CUB products boycotted by unions after the 55 CUB workers were allegedly sacked after refusing a 65% wage cut. The Australian Manufacturing Workers Union has said that they will not stop the boycott until the situation is rectified.

Windysurfer (talk) 07:48, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

 * I object to the removal and charaterisation of vandalism for the following reasons;

 * 1) The passage relates to an event related to the topic of the article.
 * 2) While earlier versions of the passage clearly failed neutrality, this one is far more neutral.
 * 3) A study of logs relating to the requesting account suggest it was created for posting this request.
 * I won't be removing the passage for these reasons. --RockerballAustralia (talk) 09:16, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

There's not a single person who has referred to this beer by this name, and the linked article doesn't suggest it. Pretty obvious that this edit has been made to market the beer. 2001:8003:33AF:C701:EE7B:3AD5:63C0:28DC (talk) 17:52, 31 December 2022 (UTC)

Things which may be of interest
G'day Bananagirl (hope Cyclone Larry missed you!),

I've noticed that you're an Australian Wikipedian. A few places you might find interesting are:
 * The Australian Wikipedians' notice board
 * Category:Wikipedians in Queensland

Also, I've noticed that you've put quite a bit of personal info on your userpage:
 * Your date of birth
 * Your full name
 * Several email addresses

Now, obviously this is entirely up to you, but: being a teenager and posting personal info online is probably not a good idea. You're quite welcome to leave it there if you feel like it, but you could at least obsfucate (mangle) your email address(es) so the spambots don't get it...

Cheers, Alphax τεχ 08:52, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
 * No worries. If you're looking for some image editing software, check out Category:Free graphics software (and more generally, Category:Bitmap graphics editors). AFAICT PSD is Photoshop - traditionally, tranparency for web images was first done with GIFs, but PNGs have become more common since they're lossless, and you can get variable transparency (unles you're using Internet Explorer, which is the worst bit of software ever written)...

We're always open to any kind of help you can provide, but writing actual articles is particularly helpful. If you know of something newsworthy going on, or pick something up from the suggestions page, drafting a story about it would be wonderful. If you're looking for an idea to work on, it appears there was another brief server outage Wednesday we'll want to cover (apparently the site going down even warrants outside media coverage now).

Page renovation
I'd be happy to renovate your user page! I was just wondering if you had any specifics on color, organization, etc.; here are some examples to help (1, 2, 3, 4). I was thinking a slight yellow theme (because of your name). You choose which info to keep. Cheers,   _-M     o     P-_     22:12, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

 * I made some tests on your userpage, which you probably noticed; there are still a few bugs that need pesticide, but they'll go in no time. I was wondering if you were ok with the colors or if they were too bright (be honest; my feelings won't get hurt, and I don't want your user page looking bad ;)).   _-M     o     P-_     02:17, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the kind words! :D However, don't think I'll be offended if you have a problem with the page; its your user page, not mine, so if you don't like something, tell me. Namely, is it too bright?   _-M    o     P-_    21:37, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

 * And I went ahead and gave you a signature box of your own. :P Unfortunately, showing/hiding everything causes lots of glitches which would take years to sort out... I'll do it one day, but I can't today unfortunately <tt>:(</tt> _-M  o   P-_  01:20, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial update
As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

Survey
Hi Bananagirl!

I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!

It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!

Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!

Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!

Stolberg-Wernigerode

The County of Stolberg-Wernigerode (Grafschaft Stolberg-Wernigerode) was a county of the Holy Roman Empire located in the Harz region around Wernigerode, now part of Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. It was ruled by a branch of the House of Stolberg.

History
The Counts of Wernigerode had become extinct in 1429 and their lands were inherited through Salic law by the Counts of Stolberg, sovereign counts of the Empire since the early 11th century. On 31 May 1645, the Harz line of Stolberg-Stolberg was divided between a senior Stolberg-Wernigerode line and a junior Stolberg-Stolberg line. Because Wernigerode was heavily damaged by the Thirty Years' War, the Counts of Stolberg-Wernigerode also resided in the castle of Ilsenburg.

The town of Gedern in Hesse, acquired in 1535, became the seat of the cadet branch of Stolberg-Gedern in 1677. This junior line, raised to an imperial principality by Emperor Charles VII of Wittelsbach in 1742, was reacquired by Stolberg-Wernigerode in 1804. The Wernigerode line also re-acquired Stolberg-Schwarza on 14 September 1748.

In 1714, Count Christian Ernest surrendered his military and the fiscal independence of Stolberg-Wernigerode to King Frederick William I of Prussia, although he still maintained subordinated rule over his territories as a count. The county was mediatised in 1807 and made part of the Kingdom of Westphalia. In the 1815 Congress of Vienna, Stolberg-Wernigerode was granted to Prussia, although successive counts retained sovereign rights until 1876. The territory was incorporated into the Prussian Province of Saxony in 1815.

The Counts of Stolberg-Wernigerode were considered Reichsfrei. The children of Fürsten, Fürstinnen and Erbprinzen (Princes and Princesses) zu Stolberg-Wernigerode bore the title of Prince(ss) zu Stolberg-Wernigerode and were styled as Serene Highness. Other members of this line bore the equal title of Graf/Gräfin zu Stolberg-Wernigerode (not to be confused with ordinary Counts) and were styled as Illustrious Highness.

 * Henry Ernest, 1645-1672
 * Ernest, son, 1672-1710
 * Christian Ernest, nephew, 1710-1771
 * Henry Ernest, son, 1771-1778
 * Christian Frederick, son, 1778-1824
 * Henry, son, 1824-1854
 * Otto, grandson, 1854–1896, Vice-Chancellor of Germany, Fürst from 1890 on

Princes of Stolberg-Wernigerode

 * Otto, 1st Prince 1890-1896 (1837-1896) - Vice-Chancellor of Germany, Fürst from 1890 on

I have been welcomed!
I guess a month after I start is better than never HAR HAR!

If anyone else has any comments just slap them on below these. The Bob Talbot 03:54, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

webcest
You are certainly right to put the Webcest thing up for deletion. I sadly didn't read enough to realize that neologisms accepted by 5 people aren't reasonable content for the wikipedia (though I think they are - if they are extremely unstable, they'll go away on their own).

Un-keen
I don't want to be rude or needlessly agressive, and I think it would be rather unprovoked of me to outright insult you on your own page, but I would just like to say that I don't think you're a totally awesome dude. Sorry. I am open for debate.

reply to Webcest mess
Well if for one you would tell me who you are on Dumbrella (which is where I am guessing you come from? Or an OverCompensating reader?) I would have a better idea of how to address you. Since you are most likely relatively new to the community, I will tell you this:

I've been reading Jeff Rowland's comics since the late 1990s. I've followed his work from Fleen to Keenspot to Dumbrella and through countless messageboards. He and I have become pretty good friends over the years, and though we do not get to see each other lately, I would like to think that has not changed.

Just because he comes up with a word, however, doesn't mean that I am going to blindly run to Wikipedia and support someone making a page for it. Jeff's comic already HAS a page! That is a pretty darn good accomplishment to begin with. I like his "webcest" concept and I think it could be a neat catchphrase if people use it and allow it to enter the internet vocabulary instead of tryin to force it in like you guys did. I don't think Jeff ever advocated that, either. He told you guys to leave it alone.

I would like to think that he'd rather it catch on for real and have a defensible wiki page in the future (probably on wiktionary or some such area) than have you guys perform what amounts to vandalism of Wikipedia.

If you want to think I am not a totally awesome dude for that, after reading this, then go ahead.

 * Dude you is awesome but that is only because of the penis you have attached to youse, is okay bruh

Image Tagging for Image:Bobstatuesque.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Bobstatuesque.jpg. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then 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 want the image to be deleted, tag it as db-unksource.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Image tagging for Image:Fred_Armisen_SNL.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Fred_Armisen_SNL.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Media copyright questions. 07:30, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Boa_02.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Boa_02.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you 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 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 10:11, 29 July 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MER-C 10:11, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Blackoakarkansasalbum01.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Blackoakarkansasalbum01.JPG. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 07:15, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Ruby Starr.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Ruby Starr.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:38, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

True Swing Golf

True Swing Golf (also known as Nintendo Touch Golf: Birdie Challenge in PAL regions, and 大人のDSゴルフ (Otona no DS Golf; DS Golf for Adults) in Japan) is a golf video game by long-time golf game creators T&E Soft, published by Nintendo and released for the Nintendo DS handheld video game system.

The game features a course based on the Phoenix Country Club in Miyazaki.

Gameplay
The game features four separate modes of play: Stroke Play, where the player embarks on any courses unlocked in the game; Match Play, where the player engages in a matchplay against a computer opponent of a chosen difficulty level; Free Round, where the player is free to take on any hole on any particular course they have already unlocked; Championship, where the player progresses through a series of tournaments in order to unlock other courses and progress through the ranks, from a Rookie to a Junior, then Senior and finally Master.

DS Download Play allows only Stroke Play and Match Play modes. Another game mode known as Skins Match is available if all the players have a copy of the game.

The game also features a Golf Shop which sells golfing equipment (separated into clubsets, golf balls and golf shoes), and, depending on the player's progress in the Championship, restocks its inventories with more advanced equipment until the player has completed the Masters Level Championship.

Despite it being named as a realistic golf game, players could utilise their clubset's skills to power up their shots, deliver more spin to the ball, or curve the ball more, which would decrease a Power Meter that gradually charges up over time as a player advances through the golf course.

There are a total of fifteen courses to unlock, the last three which are essentially extremely windy versions of the first three courses the player would encounter in the game.

Regional differences
The Japanese version has a built-in illustrated glossary of golf terminology, which is missing from the Western releases.

DSiWare release
'True Swing Golf Express' (North America) and 'A Little Bit of...Nintendo Touch Golf' (PAL regions) was released following other re-release titles for the DSiWare download service.

The DSiWare version of the game does not include any Wi-Fi features, such as Local/Download Play or the in-game PictoChat function. It also features less courses than the retail game.

However, it adds several unique features:

 * includes an updated and improved version of the game engine
 * higher framerate due do the increased CPU speed of the Nintendo DSi
 * a more refined user interface
 * improved, interactive Tutorial
 * Challenge mode (replaces Championship Tour of the retail game)

Challenge Mode
This adds a lot to the game and provides a method of increasing your player stats and unlocking additional courses. It includes 100 challenges at each of several different difficulty levels, totaling over 300 different challenges. They include such variations as:

 * nearest to the pin
 * chip-in
 * limited strokes
 * single putt
 * total distance
 * limited time
 * competition (vs CPU)
 * limited clubs

Release
It is one of the games branded as Touch! Generations in North America.

Reception
The DSi version received "favorable" reviews, while the original DS version received "average" reviews according to video game review aggregator Metacritic.

On release week, Famitsu gave the game a score of 30 out of 40.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

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

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

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

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:50, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 12:46, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:AnthraxWCFYA.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:AnthraxWCFYA.jpg. 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. J Milburn 19:17, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:BorknagarQuintessence.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:BorknagarQuintessence.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Stolberg-Rossla

The County of Stolberg-Rossla (Grafschaft Stolberg-Roßla) was a county of the Holy Roman Empire. Its capital was Rossla, now in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. It was owned and ruled by a branch of the House of Stolberg from 1341 until 1803.

Stolberg-Rossla emerged as a partition of Stolberg-Stolberg in 1706. It was forced to recognize the suzerainty of the Electorate of Saxony in 1738. Stolberg-Rossla was mediatised to Saxony in 1803, but passed to the Kingdom of Prussia in 1815. Although the territory was subsequently administered within the Province of Saxony, the counts retained their possessions until 1945. In 1893 they were raised to the rank of Princes of Stolberg-Rossla.

Counts of Stolberg-Rossla

 * Christoph Ludwig I, Count of Stolberg-Stolberg (1634–1704)
 * Christoph Friedrich, Count of Stolberg-Stolberg (1672–1736)
 * Jost Christian, 1st Count of Stolberg-Roßla 1706–1739 (1676–1739)
 * Friedrich Botho, 2nd Count 1739–1768 (1714–1768)
 * Heinrich Christian Friedrich, 3rd Count 1768–1778 (1747–1810)
 * Johann Wilhelm Christoph, 4th Count 1778–1826 (1748–1826)
 * August, 5th Count 1826–1846 (1768–1846)
 * Karl Martin, 6th Count 1846–1870 (1822–1870)
 * Botho, 7th Count 1870–1893 (1850–1893)

Princes of Stolberg-Rossla

 * Botho, 1st Prince 1893 (1850–1893)
 * Jost Christian, 2nd Prince 1893–1916 (1886–1916)
 * Christoph Martin, 3rd Prince 1916–1949 (1888–1949)
 * Johann Martin, 4th Prince 1949–1982 (1917–1982)

Prince Alexander of Stolberg-Wernigerode (b.1967) was adopted by Stolberg-Roßla line. He has a son, Prince Ludwig (b.2008), and three daughters.

Combatives

Combatives is the term used to describe the hand-to-hand combat systems primarily used by members of the military, law enforcement, or other groups such as security personnel or correctional officers. Combatives are based in martial arts but are not themselves distinct disciplines.

The US Modern Army Combatives Program was adopted as the basis for the US Air Force Combatives Program in January 2008. Combatives training has also been provided outside of the United States military, for example at Kansas State University which provided a training programme for $2 1/2$ years before closing it in 2010.
