Science (Kieron Harvey)
Not notable brenneman (t) (c)  03:24, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Big Brother UK series 6 as is the case with the other contestants. On his own, Science isn't yet notable enough, but he will be if he wins so an article can be written then. 23skidoo 05:16, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect to Big Brother UK series 6 until more can be written about him than "he is a contestant," or possibly "he won Big Brother..." Keeping until the end of the series is pointless without encyclopaedic content. Even winning isn't deserving of a solo article.  See Brian Dowling. The JPS 10:03, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect as per other BB6 contestants. There is a chance people will look them up on their own. David | Talk 10:07, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge to Big Brother UK series 6. Dcarrano 15:43, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Big Brother UK series 6. JamesBurns 04:01, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect all of them except Derek Laud who was a known political figure before becoming a contestant and I imagine will be again afterwards. There is nothing notable about any of the rest. Mrsteviec 11:56, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
 * I've edited this page to return to NPOV. What is left can easily be merged in to the main BB6 article. Mrsteviec 18:30, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge to Big Brother UK series 6. Nevica 19:03, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
 * I say merge and redirect. I've added the info to Big Brother UK series 6 so we only need to redirect-ise this page. --Celestianpower talk 19:09, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

There was already a discussion taking place on Talk:Big Brother UK series 6 concerning merging all of these articles. Since there was no objection there, and since the consensus on VFD seems to be redirect, I have been bold and merged and redirected all of the individual contestant articles (except Derek Laud). —Stormie 21:40, July 29, 2005 (UTC)
 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in an undeletion request). No further edits should be made to this page.

WOPX-TV

WOPX-TV (channel 56) is a television station licensed to Melbourne, Florida, United States, broadcasting the Ion Television network to the Orlando area. Owned and operated by the Ion Media subsidiary of the E.W. Scripps Company, the station maintains offices on Grand National Drive in Orlando, and its transmitter is located on Nova Road east of St. Cloud.

After its original permittee could not secure funding for construction, channel 56 began broadcasting on May 19, 1986, as WAYK. It was an independent station focusing on the Melbourne and Vero Beach area with an emphasis on sports programs, including baseball. An attempt to boost its viewership by merging with channel 26 in Daytona Beach failed to get the station on cable television systems in the Orlando area. Never financially successful, it filed for bankruptcy reorganization in 1990. During the process, the Daytona Beach station went off the air and was split off in bankruptcy court. Robert Rich, who had already been managing the station, bought it and changed its call sign to WIRB. As WAYK and again as WIRB, the station attempted producing a local newscast for Brevard and Indian River counties.

Christian Network, associated with Paxson Communications Corporation, bought WIRB in 1995 and replaced its programming with infomercials. Like other Paxson stations, it was one of the launch stations for the Pax network—forerunner to today's Ion—in 1998.

WAYK: Construction and early years
In January 1981, Don Sundquist, owner of Broadcast Production and Management Corporation, announced his plans to apply to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to activate channel 56 in Melbourne. Sundquist proposed a format emphasizing business news programming; he owned a company called Market Report, which was already airing such a show over WKID-TV in Fort Lauderdale. A second application was filed by a Chattanooga, Tennessee, woman, but the FCC held a comparative hearing and awarded Sundquist's group the construction permit in September 1982. At the time, Sundquist declared plans to launch the station in 1983. While the full-power user of channel 56 was being determined, the channel was used by WESH to rebroadcast its signal into southern Brevard County, where reception had sometimes been poor.

By 1984, Sundquist had given up on building the station and another permit he owned in Key West, Florida. The early 1980s recession had caused a potential financier of the venture to go out of business, television networks were uninterested in offering affiliation, and he could not secure funding from banks. He attempted to sell the station—designated WSCT—to the SFN Companies, which had just acquired Orlando ABC affiliate WFTV and hoped to use it as a satellite station with local news inserts. The transaction fell through when ABC denied WFTV permission to rebroadcast its signal.

In 1985, William Varecha assumed control of the channel 56 permit. He planned to focus the station on Brevard and Indian River counties, which he felt were underserved by the nearest television stations. Construction was delayed multiple times in late 1985 and early 1986 as the venture faced studio construction delays, short legs on one section of the 1000 ft tower, and a faulty transmission line.

WAYK made its first broadcast on May 19, 1986, days after WESH discontinued its use of the South Brevard translator. A local news program debuted shortly after the station's first broadcast.

Varecha's plans for channel 56 were complicated by Melbourne's other television station, WMOD (channel 43). WMOD, unlike WAYK, sought to penetrate the Orlando television market. In 1985, it won an FCC ruling declaring Brevard County to be part of the Orlando television market. This had a negative effect on WAYK, because it forced the station to compete for programming at higher rates and without the signal coverage that WMOD had. WAYK's transmitter, near the Indian River–Brevard line, was further south than that of WMOD. Varecha went as far as petitioning the FCC to reverse the previous FCC ruling. One of the ways WAYK tried to compensate for this difficulty, as well as its lack of presence on Orlando-area cable systems, was by investing in syndicated sports. In 1987, the station scheduled telecasts of some 200 Major League Baseball games, as well as several syndicated college sports packages. While most Orlando-area cable systems, particularly the large CableVision of Central Florida, shunned WAYK, the sports programming got it on the smaller Storer Cable system in southern Seminole County.

Simulcast with WAYQ
In December 1987, Varecha's TV 56 Limited agreed to share ownership of WAYK with Life Style Broadcasting, which held a construction permit for channel 26 in Daytona Beach. The two firms formed Beach Television Partners. The combination of channels 26 and 56 was expected by management to create a large signal covering the full Orlando media market. Channel 26 began broadcasting as WAYQ on September 12, 1988. Shortly after debuting, Orlando-based independent station WOFL objected to channel 26's license, claiming that advertisers were told the WAYQ signal reached Orlando when it did not.

Not long after the simulcast began, WAYK—which owned half of WAYQ—began to fail financially. The largest cable system in the Orlando area, CableVision of Central Florida, never added WAYK–WAYQ to its lineup on a full-time basis, straining the station's ability to secure advertising revenue. WAYK president Bill Varecha told Florida Today in July 1990, "We have been unable to act as a conventional television station because we can't disseminate over the entire area. Orlando is the meat and potatoes of the marketplace." In 1989, the news department was discontinued to cut costs; interest in channel 56's local news had been low in the Vero Beach area. One stockholder in the company, Harry Handley, started the Star Television Network, which proposed to deliver classic TV shows and infomercials to affiliates including WAYK and WAYQ. In the meantime, Beach Television Partners began seeking investors to assist in providing capital to the struggling stations; on the WAYK side, Robert Rich—former owner of KBJR-TV in Duluth, Minnesota—stepped in as a new manager. After lenders refused to give the company more time to make payments on broadcast equipment, in August 1990, Beach Television Partners filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Two months later, Barnett Bank moved to foreclose on the studios after the Varechas defaulted on a construction loan.

WAYK and WAYQ continued to broadcast while in bankruptcy. During this time, the Star Television Network operated, with the two stations among its few affiliates, before running out of cash and ceasing operations in January 1991. WAYQ ceased broadcasting on June 26, 1991, when a Grumman A-6 Intruder of the United States Navy clipped its tower.

WIRB
In August 1991, the Chapter 11 bankruptcy case was converted to a Chapter 7 liquidation. WAYK was allowed to continue telecasting in order to preserve the FCC license, one of its principal assets. The bankruptcy court appointed a trustee, who moved to separate WAYQ and WAYK.

Under the company Treasure Coast Communications, Robert Rich bought WAYK for $100,000. The station changed call signs to WIRB on May 22, 1992. The rebranded station continued as an independent outlet, adding several daytime shows local network affiliates did not clear and a schedule of 52 games of the expansion Florida Marlins baseball team.

During this time, WIRB began building toward the resumption of local news programming for Brevard and Indian River counties. An evening newscast debuted in July 1993. It coincided with the return of must-carry laws, which put WIRB on cable systems in Orlando and Kissimmee for the first time and expanded its reach.

Paxson and Ion ownership
Christian Network, Inc., announced a $4 million acquisition of WIRB from Rich in January 1995. The news department was laid off on January 18, 1995, in preparation for a transition to the station's new programming: infomercials. The new owner and programming were closely related. The infomercials came from the Infomall TV network, owned by Paxson Communications Corporation, of which WIRB was the first separately owned affiliate; Paxson was one of the largest contributors to Christian Network. During this time, WIRB occasionally broke away from infomercials. The cable channel America's Health Network brokered some overnight hours to air its shows; the Orlando-based service lacked cable carriage in its hometown. In December 1997, an independently produced local Spanish-language newscast began airing on WIRB.

In January 1998, WIRB became WOPX-TV as part of a national changeover of dozens of Paxson-owned stations' call signs. Paxson's Infomall TV stations changed programming with the launch of the Pax network on August 31, 1998. Beginning in 2002, regional NBC affiliate WESH sold advertising time on WOPX-TV under a joint sales agreement; in addition, WOPX added replays of WESH newscasts to its schedule and began operating out of WESH's studio facilities.

After changing its name to i: Independent Television in 2005, the network became known as Ion Television in 2007. The E. W. Scripps Company acquired Ion Media for $2.65 billion in 2020.

Subchannels
The station's signal is multiplexed:

Analog-to-digital conversion
WOPX-TV shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 56, on June 12, 2009, the official date on which full-power television stations in the United States transitioned from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate. The station's digital signal continued to broadcast on its pre-transition UHF channel 48, using virtual channel 56.

Recent feedback
Thanks for your recent feedback. I would like to show you the responses I made to this user:

Reply to your comment
Thanks for your recent feedback. I apologize if you took offense to the placement of maintenance tags, as certainly none is intended. These tags place the article into categories of similar articles with these issues so that any interested Wikipedian can assist in resolving the problems. We all do this without compensation, which is why it's important to cooperate. Part of that is to ensure that articles are properly categorized, which is part of the job of those who patrol new pages. Seraphimblade 08:04, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Again, I do apologize if you took offense. Please do note that once an article is posted, anyone may edit it. Could you please specify what it is that you object to, that I did? Seraphimblade 08:10, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Might I ask, in exactly what way I did not approach him civilly and in an attempt to work with him? After my last request for him to specify what his complaint was, he deleted the comments from his talk page and did not respond. I certainly did not intend to harass him to demand a response, and if he considered the discussion closed I took him at his word-that he did not appear to wish to improve the article any further. I do appreciate your feedback, but might you specify what you would've had me do differently? Seraphimblade 08:39, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Although you might find the image vulgar, keep in mind that Wikipedia is NOT censored.. The image shows exactly what it says it shows, and is tagged correctly. Thus, in the eyes of Wikipedia, there is nothing wrong with it. Cheers! ~  PH  DrillSergeant ... §  18:35, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I replied here. - Erielhonan
 * I understand that you are somewhat offended by the image. Unfortunately, sometimes, when all sides will be offended either way, Wikipedians must choose the least offensive side. This does cause disputes and arguments and, sometimes, wars--but these things must be tolerated in order to keep the structure of the Wiki community sound. My best advice: tolerate it as much as you can, and when you can't tolerate it any more, rant about it on the talk page. Remember one of my favorite quotes: "It is always sound business to take any obtainable net gain, at any cost and at any risk to the rest of the community." - Thorstein Veblen

User categories
Nope. Basically, this project came out of the CfD decision to make all "user" categories contain the word "Wikipedian," and give the new category names some semblance of sensibility. In the process, many users decided that certain categories either made no sense or were too trivial to keep track of, so those have taken a number of delete votes. The overall goal now seems to be to make a set of user categories that people can say, "These are named correctly and have merit in building an encyclopedia." So that's what we're doing. Hope that helps.--Mike Selinker 18:35, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Sure, no problem. It was here. Come join in if you like.--Mike Selinker 18:51, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
 * There's no real organized conversation, just hundreds of nominations and the talk pages of the discussions. Check the archives for some of the discussions. At some point I plan to write up the "rules" agreed to in these discussions, such as "subcategories of category:Wikipedians by interest are named "Wikipedians interested in (X)." Sorry I can't come up with more. (Thanks for giving your opinion on some of the discussions, by the way.)--Mike Selinker 21:06, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

While I typically have no opinion about long signature markup, at WP:UCFD (due to the already long length of the page), it's starting to become difficult to navigate.

Reply from Nadirali
Erialhonen,if you archived my messages thats fine,however I will adress some issues we've dealt with and hopefully will not have to deal with again.

First off,it was you started talking to me, and I agreed to retrain myself. Second off I will adress the issue of writing things like: users please check the history of this talk page is attempting to give other wikipedians a bad image of me.Its just like if Ive exchanged negative comments in a conversation,it would be like you recording them and attempting to distribute the recorded tapes among people to give me a negative image.Loss of temper does not reflect a person's image or personality as everyone looses their temper at times of frustration.Yes even you.So please do not do that in the future.I will only be forced to write to the appropriate people to adress a similar issue(which I hope does not happen)

.Also "I dont go around making everyone smell my ****."That kind of language will not be tolerated and I will write to the "Report a problem" link if it keeps going on or report it to other of the 400 administrators. You may not mind using it,but the use of words that offends a certain user is not accepted here at wikipedia and if it does happen again(I really hope it does not for both users and administrators),I will write to resolve an editing dispute page of wikipedia to furthur adress this problem if it ever comes up.

Also,be warned I still promise to continue combating any corrupt users/administrators who are abusing the very basis on which wikipedia was founded upon as the free encyclopdia so I hope you are not following or stray into that negative path. As I said,I have signed a petition adressed to Mr Wales regrding the continues corruption and abuse by some users/administrators who do not belong here at all. I am also actively supporting sites that are working to bring the corruption and foul play on wikipedia to the attention of the public and other internet users. I know you dont personaly belive there is any abuse here,but a person's or people's personal belif(s) does not reflect upon the entire populations belif(s)s or change reality.

Last of all,do not consider or rebuff my warnings as threats,I am here to help wikipedia expand not destroy or reduce it.ThankyouNadirali 04:29, 2 December 2006 (UTC)Nadirali

 * Nadirali, your behavior continues to be problematic to me. I will keep an eye on you for a few more days and if you keep up your apparent hostility I will urge administrative action.

 * The **** you cite above is the word "anus", and was being used in an extended simile with the word "opinion". I am making a comment on what seems to me your abuse of the NPOV policy and your nationalistic posturing in your comments on other users.  Perhaps my cheeky simile wasn't entirely appropriate, but it was apt.  I find direct threats and insults a lot more offensive than what you are ascribing to me.  Feel free to announce me to the admins if I bother you.

 * I will not be warned. I don't appreciate your crusade-against-corruption posture, and I find it incredibly unhelpful and in bad faith. You also consistently threaten to bring off-wiki action against Wikipedia (granted not legal action, but a threat of exposure of alleged 'corruption'), which is really in bad form and also smells of policy violation.  Continuing down that rhetorical path cannot bring you any good results in Wikipedia.

 * My urging other editors to read your talk page history is not an attempt to discredit you unfairly. You keep commenting on and/or sanitizing your talk page, which is against policy.  That information is stored for a reason - so that it's available to other editors to review.  I reverted that edit to your page in order to cool down my own rhetoric, but you've brought it back up.  I very strongly encourage you to restore all the edits (mine and everyone else's) to your talk page that you have deleted.  To properly inform your argument that it's 'your space and your right to', please read this section.

 Er iel hon an 06:51, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

My so-called "crusade posture" is only an effort to save wikipedia from falling into the wrong hands and keeping it a free encyclopedia.Please do not twist my words by saying that Im trying to attack or destroy wikipedia.I am doing just the opposite.And do not rebuff that as "bad behaviour" or "threats".It is the best faith I can have in myself as a wikipedian(and others who support me). And please stop wrongly labelling what I say as "hostility".

Yes you,along with all wikipedians(including me)will be warned of any serious violations that pose a threat to wikipedia.Please understand your position as an administrator does not intimidate me at all.It does not give you any exclusive powers over other wikipedians whatsoever.However if you wish to report me,then go ahead.I will speak to other administrators on this issue myself if it is brought up to me by them or the administrative board.

I also want to thankyou for admitting to your cheeky behaviour as I also admit that I messed around a bit with my talk page.My talk page is like a school locker and it does not entirely belong to me.

I did not deliberately delete my messages this time,I attempted to archive it as Ragib suggested.But I clicked the wrong option.(I have Ragib to thank for removing alot of hatemail from my talk page and warning the hater of his actions)

You will find my so-called "crusade posture" will be very helpful to wikipedia.The "alleged corruption" ,as you put it, is a belief is shared beyond more than just me.It is also being exposed on more than just one site(and will continue to being exposed until the mischief here stops).The sites have people on them who have unjustly been blocked out of wikipedia by these same people I speak of. I can send you the links again if you wish.

It is not for anyone to judge me as "nationalist".If you personaly belive that,I respect it but I personally dont share that belief. However,I will not sit and watch my people wrongly be sterotyped as "terrorists" on wikipedia or be associated with the 9/11 attacks in any way.It would be a parallel to someone using wikipedia to associate ordinary Germans with Nazism,when in fact most Germans have nothing to do with such ideaology nowdays. I also dont like the streotypical labels given to my people of being "Indians" or "Arabs".I think one of the worst ways of abusing an encyclopedia is filling it with racial stereotypes. This is a good example of the propaganda I promise to throw out of wikipedia along with the people who use it as a perfect tool to promote such false propaganda. (When have I made direct threats or insults at you?)

License tagging for Image:Feiled-justlikeheavencover.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Feiled-justlikeheavencover.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

Tauri

The Tauri (Ταῦροι in Ancient Greek), or Taurians, also Scythotauri, Tauri Scythae, Tauroscythae (Pliny, H. N. 4.85) were an ancient people settled on the southern coast of the Crimea peninsula, inhabiting the Crimean Mountains in the 1st millennium BC and the narrow strip of land between the mountains and the Black Sea. According to the sources, the Tauri (Tawri, Tanwri) were the first inhabitants of the Crimean peninsula and never abandoned its borders. They gave their name to the peninsula, which was known in ancient times as Taurica, Taurida and Tauris.

Assimilation
Taurians intermixed with the Scythians starting from the end of 3rd century BC, and were mentioned as Tauroscythians and Scythotaurians in the works of ancient Greek writers. The Taurians underwent the rule of the Pontic Kingdom in the 2nd century BC. As a result of Roman occupations, Taurians were romanized in the first century AD. Later the Taurians were subsumed by the Alans and Goths, and existed till the 4th century.

History
In his Histories, Herodotus describes the Tauri as living "by plundering and war". They became famous for their worship of a virgin goddess, to whom they sacrificed shipwrecked travellers and waylaid Greeks. He makes a point of them living in Scythia geographically without themselves being Scythians. In Geographica, Strabo refers to the Tauri as a Scythian tribe.

The Greeks identified the Tauric goddess with Artemis Tauropolos or with Iphigeneia, daughter of Agamemnon. The Tauric custom of human sacrifice inspired the Greek legends of Iphigeneia and Orestes, recounted in Iphigeneia in Tauris by the playwright Euripides. The original Greek title given by Euripides literally means Iphigeneia among the taurians. Such a place as "Tauris" does not exist.

According to Herodotus, the manner of their sacrifice was to beat the head with a club and remove the head; then they either buried the body or threw it off a cliff, and lastly nailed the head to a cross. Prisoners of war likewise had their heads removed, and the head was then put onto a tall pole and placed at their house "in order that the whole house may be under their protection".

Although the Crimean coast eventually came to be dominated by Greek (and subsequently Roman) colonies, notably the one at Chersonesos, the Tauri remained a major threat to Greek power in the region. They engaged in piracy against ships on the Black Sea, mounting raids from their base at Symbolon (today's Balaklava). By the 2nd century BC they had become subject-allies of the Scythian king Scilurus.

In the 4th century AD, the historian Ammianus Marcellinus, mentioned the names of the 3 tribes (Arichi, Sinchi, and Napaei) of the Taurians known for their "extraordinary severity".

Taurians also played a major role in the development and settlement of the Kizil-Koban Culture (KKC) in the 8th-4th century BC. Osmolovsky, who conducted a research in the Krasnaya (Red) Cave in 1921, pointed out that the arrowheads, ceramics and necklaces found in the Cave were owned by the Taurians. There are several indications that this culture belongs to the Tauris, such as:

 * Firstly, in the written sources of the earlier times than the 2nd century BC, there is no mention of any other society living in the Crimean foothills and mountains apart from the Taurians.

 * Secondly, many artifacts found in Taurians territory and cemeteries were also found in the Kizil-Koba sites.

Proposed move
Move complete.

Rationale
EgyptAir is now using the CamelCase naming as opposed to the earlier Egyptair. The change can be seen on their website. EdwinHJ | Talk

Horribly Inaccurate Facts
The Maltese Egypt air incident is horribly inaccurate, the hi-jackers did not storm the plane but shot anyone who tried to escape the plane and used a powerful explosive on the plane thus killing the passengers instead of aprehanding the terrorists, they killed more passangers that the terrorists. Please correct the inaccurate fact, I live in the country myself don’t tell me you have a good source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.85.104.106 (talk) 21:48, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Contradictory and confusing text
The text says that the airline renamed itself "United Arab Airlines" in both February 1957 and March 1958. Which is true? Also, it mentions the airline losing a Viscount at Almaza airport during an air raid, but does not make clear when the air raid occurred. Was it during the 1956 Suez Crisis – and, if so, why isn't it mentioned in that context? – or at another time? Mdnavman (talk) 18:22, 28 November 2015 (UTC)mdnavman

Egyptair vs. EgyptAir (article uses them inconsistently)
Egyptair's web site uses all caps, which, of course, is a house style choice that we will not follow. But its logo clearly eschews camel case. While the company itself is not always the best source for determining how a name is written, it should be given consideration. The article has a mixture of Egyptair and EgyptAir. It is properly, in my opinion, titled Egyptair. The rest of the article needs to be cleaned up for consistency. I don't have the time to do it now, and I would like this to be open for discussion for a while first. Thanks! Holy (talk) 02:06, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Before the latest logo the airline used "EgyptAir" as a logo hence the confusion. MilborneOne (talk) 07:46, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

Jay Johnston

Jay James Johnston (born October 22, 1968) is an American actor and comedian. He was a writer and cast member on Mr. Show with Bob and David and had roles on The Sarah Silverman Program, Arrested Development, and Bob's Burgers.

Johnston participated in the United States Capitol attack on January 6, 2021, and was arrested and charged on June 7, 2023. Following the incident, Johnston was fired from his longtime role as Jimmy Pesto on Bob's Burgers; he has not appeared in any films or television shows since. He pled guilty on July 8, 2024, and is scheduled for sentencing on October 7, 2024.

Early life and education
Johnston was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in acting from Columbia College Chicago in 1993.

Career
After graduating from college, Johnston later joined the Chicago Second City's touring comedy for a number of years and also performed in stage shows at the Annoyance Theater in Chicago.

From 1995 to 1998, Johnston worked as a sketch actor and writer on all four seasons of Mr. Show with Bob and David. After the conclusion of Mr. Show, Johnston had a recurring role on Arrested Development, as well as appearing in films such as Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy and Bicentennial Man.

Johnston and fellow Mr. Show regulars Dino Stamatopoulos and Scott Adsit were part of the creative team behind Adult Swim's stop-motion animation series Moral Orel, which ran from 2005 to 2008. Johnston wrote and directed episodes of the series and voiced multiple characters in the first two seasons.

Johnston starred on all three seasons of Comedy Central's The Sarah Silverman Program as "Officer Jay McPherson", the love interest of Sarah Silverman's sister Laura in the series. The series reunited Johnston with Mr. Show cast members Brian Posehn, Scott Aukerman, B. J. Porter, and Paul F. Tompkins.

Johnston had a recurring voice role as Jimmy Pesto Sr. in the Fox animated series Bob's Burgers from 2011 until his firing in 2021. The role was later recast to Eric Bauza in 2023.

United States Capitol attack
In March 2021, a Twitter message by the FBI was seeking the identity of a man at the January 6 United States Capitol attack who bore a resemblance to Johnston and who was identified as Johnston by friends of the actor. In a December 21, 2021, article by The Daily Beast, two of Johnston's friends said he admitted to being at the Capitol on January 6. After the FBI tweet and the news of his alleged participation, Johnston's friends and colleagues from Mr. Show with Bob and David reached out to Johnston, but received no response. Johnston was fired from Bob's Burgers shortly after being identified.

The FBI arrested Johnston on June 7, 2023, and charged him with felony obstruction of officers during civil disorder as well as several misdemeanor offenses. He was released after paying a $25,000 bond.

Johnston pled guilty to a single felony count of obstructing officers during a civil disorder on July 8, 2024. He is scheduled for sentencing on October 7, 2024.

Richard Skinner (born 26 December 1951) is a British radio and television presenter.

He was the opening announcer and TV anchor at the Live Aid concert in 1985, and is the only presenter to have fronted all three of the BBC's leading pop music programmes, The Old Grey Whistle Test and Top of the Pops on television and the Radio One Top 40 show.

Early career
Skinner grew up in Portsmouth where he attended Portsmouth Grammar School. In 1970, while still at school, he co-founded Portsmouth Hospital Broadcasting, a radio station serving St Mary's Hospital, Portsmouth. He later became a newspaper reporter for The News in Portsmouth and a newspaper in Kent before joining BBC Radio Medway as a music presenter. Later in 1971, Skinner joined BBC Radio Solent as a station assistant; he would later present weekly pop show Beat 'n Track on Solent.

Radio 1
In October 1973, Skinner joined BBC Radio 1 as one of the original presenters of Newsbeat. He continued in this role until 1980, when he became a regular presenter of music programmes for Radio 1, taking over the Monday-Thursday evening show from Mike Read in December 1980. At the same time Skinner continued with Newsbeat as a studio producer and also worked as an in-vision continuity announcer for Thames Television. According to Skinner, during his time working on Newsbeat he broke the news of the death of John Lennon to Paul McCartney's household by phone in the early hours of 9 December 1980.

In late 1981, Skinner became presenter of Radio 1's Rock On magazine show on Saturday afternoons and Roundtable on Friday evenings, on which he and guests would review the week's new releases. He continued with the programme until late 1985. In addition to Roundtable, from 1983 Skinner presented the Saturday Live show from 4 to 6:30pm alongside Andy Batten-Foster.

On 30 September 1984, 17 years to the day after Radio 1 began, Skinner took over the Sunday afternoon Top 40 show, also broadcast on FM. That same day David Jensen, who had just left Radio 1, started presenting The Network Chart Show on commercial radio in competition. On BBC television, Skinner presented Top of the Pops from 1980 to 1985 and The Old Grey Whistle Test from 1984 to 1986. He also played two roles in the Band Aid and Live Aid phenomenon of the 1980s. Instead of publicising a new Boomtown Rats release as planned, Bob Geldof announced the creation of the Band Aid project on Skinner's Radio 1 show in 1984.

Then on 13 July 1985, Skinner made the opening announcement at Live Aid ("It's twelve noon in London ...") as the event got underway. He also fronted the first hours of BBC TV's Bafta Award-winning coverage.

Capital London
Richard Skinner left Radio 1 in Spring 1986 to join Capital Radio, becoming the first presenter to leave the BBC Top 40 show of his own accord, and was succeeded by Bruno Brookes. At Capital, he presented on its FM Album Rock station CFM and hosted The Way It Is – Capital's equivalent of Radio 1's Newsbeat.

Return to Radio 1
In October 1988, when Radio 1 – which had acquired its own FM transmitters – extended its hours, Skinner rejoined the station to host a midnight show to play a mix of album-orientated music. In late 1989, Skinner took over the Saturday afternoon Radio 1 show the 'Saturday Sequence' from Roger Scott following the latter's early death from cancer. In 1991 Skinner also took over the helming of Scott's series Classic Albums.

In April 1990, he left the midnight show to be replaced by Bob Harris, but continued with the Saturday Sequence, where he remained until 1991, when Johnnie Walker took over.

GLR
From the turn of the 1990s, while still at Radio 1, Skinner also presented a daily show on BBC GLR, an eclectic mix of music, recorded and live, and live interviews from pop to politics. This continued until the end of December 1992.

Virgin Radio
On 30 April 1993, he hosted Virgin Radio's first programme playing two exclusive premiere cover tracks: "Born To Be Wild" by INXS and "Purple Haze" by The Cure. His weekday morning show ran from then until the autumn of 1996.

Magic
After a short spell at London's Liberty Radio as breakfast presenter alongside Carol McGiffin, in 1997 Skinner joined London's Melody FM, which later became Magic 105.4, presenting the mid-morning show for six years until September 2003. In August 2013 Skinner returned to Magic 105.4 to provide cover for holidaying presenters. Skinner also continued to provide cover in 2014.

Virgin Radio Classic Rock
In late 2003, Skinner was freelancing at the south-coast station Wave 105. Then in early 2004 he rejoined Virgin Radio on the London digital station Virgin Radio Classic Rock, where he hosted the mid-morning show, which was initially recorded, but broadcast live from 27 June 2005. During this period, he provided holiday cover on Virgin Radio. He left when live programming on Virgin Radio Classic Rock was abandoned in December 2005.

Classic Gold/BBC Radio Berkshire
After freelancing on the Classic Gold network, in April 2006 Skinner joined BBC Radio Berkshire to host the Saturday and Sunday mid-morning programmes. During this time he also covered for holidaying presenters. He left on 6 January 2008.

Original 106
In January 2008, Skinner joined Original 106 presenting weekday mid-mornings and the show Richard Skinner's Original Album Chart on Sunday afternoons.

Xfm/Radio X
Skinner joined Xfm, now known as Radio X, in January 2009 to present the station's networked mid-morning show in London and Manchester. Skinner left Xfm in August 2011.

Absolute Radio 70s
In October 2011, Richard Skinner was announced to host the opening show for the station Absolute Radio 70s on 29 November. Skinner presented afternoons on Absolute Radio 70s until March 2012. Afterwards, Martyn Lee replaced Skinner as afternoon host.

Very Necessary peaked at number four on the Billboard 200, and has been certified five-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), denoting sales of over five million copies in the United States.

Samples

 * "Whatta Man" contains a sample of "What a Man" by Linda Lyndell.
 * "Shoop" contains samples from "I'm Blue" by The Sweet Inspirations and "Super Sporm" by Captain Sky.

Craig Coates
Not Notable. brenneman (t) (c) 03:27, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect to Big Brother UK series 6 until more can be written about him than "he is a contestant," or possibly "he won Big Brother..." Keeping until the end of the series is pointless without encyclopaedic content. If he does go on to do something notable that is not covered in the BB6 article, then he can have his own artcile.

 * Merge to Big Brother UK series 6. Dcarrano 15:47, July 22, 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Big Brother UK series 6. JamesBurns 04:01, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect all of them except Derek Laud who was a known political figure before becoming a contestant and I imagine will be again afterwards. There is nothing notable about any of the rest. Mrsteviec 11:54, 23 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Rewrite and merge. Unencylopædic and biased. IINAG
 * Keep as this person is known by almost everyone in the UK.
 * Keep & Update - The Time Killer

There was already a discussion taking place on Talk:Big Brother UK series 6 concerning merging all of these articles. Since there was no objection there, and since the consensus on VFD seems to be redirect, I have been bold and merged and redirected all of the individual contestant articles (except Derek Laud). —Stormie 21:40, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:DEI logo.jpg
Image:DEI logo.jpg is being used on this article. 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.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Challenging unreferenced tag
I was tempted to remove the unreferenced tag, but I will instead challenge it here on the talk page in case the editor had a good reason to use it. On the other hand, I feel that the sourcing and references are consistent with those of other car owner pages. In my eyes, there is no reason for the tag. But again I will give the editor who put it there a couple of months ago the benefit of the doubt. - Desmond Hobson 23:34, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

GOCE changes
Hello. As a GOCE member, I have made a good faith major edit of this page. The main corrections were: I think that the sections could be improved with a review of the table of contents structure but I'll leave this for another day :-) Please leave me a note either here or on my talk page if you would like to comment and then together, we can improve the page. Cheers and happy and safe racing, Myrtle. Myrtlegroggins (talk) 11:31, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
 * changing the parts of the content which were promotional to an encyclopaedic style;
 * clarifying some of the terms and the NASCAR 'colloquial language' so that someone unfamiliar to NASCAR can read and understand the page - remembering WP is an encyclopaedia (not a resource for fans) - (I do understand that some of the terms like 'pole wins' would be common in the NASCAR community but they need clarification in WP);
 * improving the syntax, again for readability: for example, the order of phrases within a sentence is important for readability.
 * changing the dates to the standard WP 'date, month, year' order;
 * using 'DEI' consistently, again for ease of reading.
 * removing the foundation staff names for reasons of privacy

Proposed deletion of Aftermath (upcoming film)

The article Aftermath (upcoming film) has been proposed for deletion  because of the following concern:
 * No evidence film exists. IMDb cites Dolger Films and Ronin Films as production companies and neither company lists the film on their websites.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. BOVINEBOY 2008 14:55, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

Hawaii edit-a-thon!
Hello. I'm interested in attempting to put together an edit-a-thon for Hawaiian cultural topics something during the Makahiki festival perhaps around the month of November.

I am in the process of making initial contacts with these organizations as well as Wikimedia DC's GLAM project.

Looking for editors to help with an Asian Pacific American edit-a-thon in Honolulu
Aloha!

Last summer I moved to the Seattle area after 14 years in Kailua on Oahu. I immediately fell in with the Cascadia Wikimedians User Group as it formed, joined its board and became its first president as well as the GLAM representative for Washington State.

Recently, Adriel Luis, Curator (Digital & Emerging Media) at the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center, contacted me about setting up an edit-a-thon like the previous Wikipedia APA edit-a-thon. In addition to discussing one for Seattle, he wrote:

It's awesome to learn about your past in Honolulu - I'm actually going to be there for another SmithsonianAPA project mid September, and thinking that this could be an opportunity to do an event there as well! I have lots of contacts with UH and the museums, but do you know of any contacts on the Wikimedia side out there?

As I was working two jobs while I lived on Oahu, I did not have the opportunity to meet your or any other Wikipedians at the time. Hence, the reason why I am contacting you now.

If you would like to help, please contact me through one of these methods:
 * Email me directly at [mailto:peaceray@cascadia.wiki peaceray@cascadia.wiki]
 * Use Special:EmailUser/Peaceray to email me
 * Leave a message for me on my talk page.

Hi, MarcK.

 * After reviewing the list a little more carefully, I discovered a few half-formatted citations to unreliable sources in the list, from Angelfire. For that reason, I've decided to pull the list from TFL and replace it with List of WWE United States Champions, another list you worked on that appears to be in better shape.
