RfA Thanks
Please accept my embarrassingly belated thank you for supporting my RfA, which much to my surprise passed 102/1/1, earning me minor notoriety. I am grateful for all the supportive comments, and have already started doing the things people wanted me to be able to do. And hopefully nothing else... Just zis Guy, you know?

Re:Croatian Encyclopedia
Three different articles, eh? I was originally thinking they should all be included into one reasonably long article rather than two (or three) very short articles. Do you have any more info on these enyclopedias? Thanks for the input. --Thewanderer 20:54, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Sure, the Croatian Wikipedia has it that way: a disambiguation page for Hrvatska enciklopedija and individial articles for Hrvatska enciklopedija (Ujević) and Hrvatska enciklopedija (LZMK). Some information about the Zoch-Menzin 1887 encyclopedia can be found in the Encyclopedia of Yugoslavia (it's only mentioned in Enciklopedija currently). I can contribute with that, but it should probably be added to hr-Wiki first. --El Cazangero 21:11, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Anacaona
Hey, Caz, it's not an ad. It's a review from one of the most respected review publications. Btw, take a look here: Images and media for deletion/2007 August 23 You have deleted paragraph that was placed there to keep other material from being deleted. This is getting too confusing! Pepso2 16:41, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Any solution to this double-bind? Pepso2 01:23, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Isomer confusion
You set a redirect 4-Methyl-4-penten-2-one → Mesityl oxide, but that latter article lists its IUPAC name as "4-methylpent-3-en-2-one". That is, the double bond is in a different position along the chain. Compare:
 * C1−C2(=O)−C3−C4(−Me)=C5 (4-ene unconjugated to 2-one)
 * C1−C2(=O)−C3=C4(−Me)−C5 (3-ene, matches diagrams and aldol/enone ideas at mesityl oxide)

They are both isomers of 3-Methyl-3-penten-2-one, but they are not the same as each other. Could you re-check which isomer is which in which context? DMacks (talk) 04:48, 9 February 2014 (UTC)
 * You are right (of course), the confusion is straight from Ullman's, where 4-Methyl-4-penten-2-one is mislabeled as mesityl oxide. But the structure (and content) of "4-Methyl-4-penten-2-one" in Ullman's (Ketones, p. 12-13) refers to the 3-ene: ((CH3)2)C=CHCOCH3. The 4-ene is Isomesityl oxide, where the redirect should point to. Thank you for the clarification. --El Cazangero (talk) 23:16, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Plagiarism, intentional or accidental, is to be avoided
You need to avoid that kind of edit.--Smokefoot (talk) 00:06, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Ullmann's Encyclopedia " It has a very low MAK value and is recommended as a solvent because it is photochemically inactive."
 * User:El Cazangero: "It has a very low MAK value and is recommended as a solvent because it is photochemically inactive"
 * There are other instances where the language is just too close for comfort.--Smokefoot (talk) 01:00, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
 * It's not plagiarism, but correct citing. Plagiarism is masquerading someone else's work as your own, for instance by omitting the source. --El Cazangero (talk) 09:30, 17 February 2014 (UTC)
 * OK thanks for the note: Here is the deal:  In the U.S. and European cultures, we use quote marks ("") to indicate that the phrase is an exact match.  We do this to avoid trouble.
 * On another topic, please do not remove content (like formulas and lede information) without explanation. For example the lede to 2-Hexanone. Many of these articles are mature, so experienced editors here do not make big changes without some explanation. We try to consult each other, cooperate, and discuss things.  Otherwise editing suffers because people are changing a lot of stuff without asking for advice and input.  Do you think that it would be possible to discuss these changes before you make them?  Thanks, --Smokefoot (talk) 15:26, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

Cleanup
Thanks for the cleanup at the balsam of peru article. I wonder whether you may not have cut out too much -- e.g., the 60-70% figure, which is properly sourced to an RS, and the phrase that describes it as a combination.--Epeefleche (talk) 08:10, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I did that because of the wording, which appeared wrong: "Balsam of Peru [...] contains 60–70% cinnamein (a combination of cinnamic acid, cinnamyl cinnamate, benzyl benzoate, benzoic acid, and vanillin). According to the British Pharmacopoeia, Peru balsam consists of "45.0 per cent m/m to 70.0 per cent m/m of esters, mainly benzyl benzoate and benzyl cinnamate." So it's 60 - 70 % of both esters (with a varying ratio), not only benzyl cinnamate. Second, cinnamein is not a combination (mixture) of compounds, but a (molecular) compound of its own. Greetings, --El Cazangero (talk) 20:18, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Is there any way you can edit it to square the statement made by the RS cited, and incorporate the point it makes? I'm not partial to any construct, but would simply like to reflect the 60-70% point, and reflect it accurately, if possible.  Many thanks.--Epeefleche (talk) 22:10, 9 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Just do as you like. Consider harvesting Peru balsam to its own article, like the other resins: (benzoin, labdanum, myrrh, olibanum, storax, tolu balsam). Cheers, --El Cazangero (talk) 20:54, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

Balm of Gilead
Brave attempt at trying to introduce some sense into this topic. I wish there was an easy fix- I just feel that too much has been lost in the process. It does help a reader researching Samuel Solomon in History of Jewish settlement in Manchester- and closes off the possibility of expanding this line. Perhaps using your new page as a high level article- and using a {{more| tag at each section heading to refer back to the detailed article would work- but you obviously have researched the pharmacology and will be developing this area further.--  Clem Rutter (talk) 22:59, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Deleting refs
Is there some reason for this removal of referencing? We normally presume that readers should be able to verify our statements by checking the sources from which our editors take the information. wp:V and wp:SAYWHEREYOUGOTIT pertain. LeadSongDog come howl!  16:44, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I thought that they aren't essential, and there were too many of them. Readers verifying the data should use better sources anyway. What matters is that the data is correct, not that it's referenced. --El Cazangero (talk) 06:09, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
 * No offence, but that's not the way it works on the English-language WP. Here, we have policies at play, and the key ones are designed to ensure that what WP says is backed up by citations to reliable sources, and that those sources can be used by readers to verify what is said in the articles. For a long time we actually called for "Verifiability, not Truth", but that has now been rephrased. The main point is that because Wikipedia is "the Encyclopedia that Anyone Can Edit". Most of our editors are anonymous or pseudonymous. Readers generally cannot know who wrote something in an article, so trusting our editors would be foolhardy. Instead, they can trust the sources cited, which are written and published by identified people. If you think the readers should use better sources, it's perfectly reasonable to cite those better sources (after verifying that they do support the thing being said of course!) but please don't just remove citations without replacing them. Our concept of what is a "better" source is described at wp:Reliable sources, with amplifying details at wp:MEDRS for biomedical topics and at wp:SCIRS for other science topics. In general we prefer recent secondary sources, independent of the researchers who did the investigation, published in a peer-reviewed journal or university-level textbook by a publisher with a reputation for fact checking. LeadSongDog come howl!  17:03, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
 * In the time you wrote your lenghty sermon, you could have put the sources in question back in. It's interesting that such modest sources attract such vigorous attention. I doubt they're reputable or reliable, they looked like a fig-leaf to me. --El Cazangero (talk) 07:01, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, but I find it's generally more productive to educate new editors than to edit war with them. :-) LeadSongDog come howl!  21:02, 12 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't care too much about those weblinks, it's just another reference bloat, but the data should definitely be checked. However, readers unfamiliar with the subject are unlikely to check them, aside from being poor interpreters, because they do not know what "vapor pressure" or "partition coefficient" is. On the other hand, readers familiar with chemistry will (and should) consult better sources, like CRC Handbook, Beilstein, Ullmann's, Merck Index, etc. Since there are only few reliable sources of physical properties, and they are well-known, in general they need not be cited at all. Doing so is tantamount to linking every single word to a dictionary entry. The weblinks in question only provide an illusion of correctness. --El Cazangero (talk) 07:58, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
 * If you prefer to cite one or more of those books instead of a website, that's perfectly reasonable, and is supported by policy. Please provide page numbers too. Removing the citation entirely, however, is not on. If we started accepting that, anyone could (and would) insert any random pseudo-"fact" wherever they pleased, and many such would go undetected for a long time. It's bad enough as it is. LeadSongDog come howl!  16:07, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

September 2014
Hello, I'm Sminthopsis84. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Opopanax, but you didn't correctly use the reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to re-work the material and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Do not copy material from a copyrighted work! Sminthopsis84 (talk) 19:43, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

Your addition to Balm of Gilead has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text, or images borrowed from other websites, or printed material without a verifiable license; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Same problem at Opopanax.
 * I'm unaware of any copyright infringement in my edits. Also, copyright claims may originate from copyright holders, not from co-editors playing the devil's advocate. Issuing unfounded copyright threats is a frequent formal argument in disputes about content. Even copious literal citations would be covered by fair use, provided that they are referenced, let alone short and concise sentences. --El Cazangero (talk) 19:37, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

Formal Warning about repeated copyvio
Sorry but what you say may be fine elsewhere, but not here. Here you must follow our policy on copyright. Your interpretation of fair use is not one we use here. Consider this a formal warning as I've discovered that you reinserted text including "The Romans, however, captured them and, in his triumphal march in Rome, Titus displayed balsam trees brought from Judea. The orchards in Jericho and En-Gedi henceforth provided the Romans with an important source of revenue" copied from the Encyclopaedia Judaica: despite being warned above. I am considering raising raising a WP:CCI as you obviously don't understand our policy and other articles may need examining. Dougweller (talk) 09:33, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

Queen of Sheba
I've had to do more reverting and deleting there. I really wish I didn't have to do this - it's a waste of my time and you are trying to improve the article and I don't like undoing people's work when they are acting in good faith, but part of my role as an Administrator is making sure our policies are followed. WP:CLOSEPARAPHRASE is a very good guide to avoiding copyvio. You may have noticed that I stopped a blocked editor from reverting you earlier, both because he was evading his block and because your version seemed an improvement. One other point - we have a policy called 'No original research' - see WP:NOR. In a nutshell it means sources must discuss the subject of the article. This is extremely different from writing an article for an academic journal where you can build an argument on sources that don't directly discuss the subject. Again, it's policy and needs to be followed. Dougweller (talk) 10:04, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

 * El Cazangero, you have made some controversial edits ("Chatter..") and reverted my revert with the notion "Talk". I would highly prefer you came up with better reasons for that and if you ask for using the talk page, then do so yourself. Serten (talk) 04:49, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

CCI Notice
Hello, El Cazangero. This message is being sent to inform you that a request for a contributor copyright investigation has been filed at Contributor copyright investigations concerning your contributions to Wikipedia in relation to Wikipedia's copyrights policy. The listing can be found here. For some suggestions on responding, please see Responding to a CCI case. Thank you. I hope that you can actually help clean up the articles you have edited. I've made it clear that appear to be unaware of or don't understand our policy. I hope you've read it by now. Dougweller (talk) 11:26, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * The CCI has been opened, and the relevant page is here. --Mkativerata (talk) 11:09, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without verifying permission. You have been previously warned that this is against policy, but have persisted. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Dougweller (talk) 16:18, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

Balm of Gilead
Hi, I'm sorry to see your latest edit on this article, made without discussion; I had clearly marked my edit as being discussed on the talk page, where I have explained my reasoning. Could you please go there and explain why you wish to replace this material, despite the reasons stated on the talk page? Many thanks. Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:14, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

October 2014
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Hafspajen (talk) 16:19, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Please try to TALK. You might have right or not, I don't know - but try to talk it over - or take it to Dispute resolution... but in order to do that you have to try to talk first. I don't want you any harm but I had to tell you that you are editwarring now. Please try to talk it over instead. Hafspajen (talk) 18:58, 14 October 2014 (UTC).

Hafspajen, do you refer to the Queen of Sheba article or another? I have asked User:El Cazangero to contribute to the talk page before he restarts controversial edits. Serten (talk) 22:08, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
 * No. Balm of Gilead, and I don't think it is controversial, just needs some talking. Hafspajen (talk) 22:10, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

 * El Cazangero, could you please stop your (slow) edit-warring on Balm of Gilead, and accept the clear majority view? You have not joined in the discussion on the talk page, despite repeated invitations and Hafspajen's encouragement to talk. We would like to hear your opinion; that would be far better than simply having to revert your edits. Chiswick Chap (talk) 06:37, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

 * With regard to Queen of Sheba, he's still in silent mode on talk page but goes ahead with deleting content, again and despite the warning I gave in the section above. In so far the warning here includes the Queen's article as well. User:El Cazangero, I would prefer you took a break. Serten (talk) 08:25, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

 * No, in that case you need to involve an admin, like  Hafspajen (talk) 10:58, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

 * 'Don't tell him' ;) Lets say, I still stay patient. Serten (talk) 11:04, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

 * OK, but if it happens one more time without discussion we will need an admin to take a look at it. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:13, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but why wait? People have to discuss things. If somebody doesn't that's edit war, and there are rules to follow on Wiki - one have to follow those when editing because otherwise it might .. well you know, se above. I would say WP:Dispute resolution, but the point is that you can't go there without discussing it previously. I say involve, still one of the nicest, most patient of admins, my best bet. Hafspajen (talk) 11:21, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * All right, try her. Chiswick Chap (talk) 12:10, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

 * El Cazangero: Consider this a final warning. You need to make your case at Talk:Balm of Gilead and Talk:Queen of Sheba, not just in edit summaries. There are multiple issues involved - weight, sourcing, and copyright (I'm concerned by your recent edit summary referring to "feigned" copyvio concerns - they are very real, since Wikipedia is publication and we license the entire contents of the encyclopedia for reuse for any purpose, so the freer and easier standards of academia do not apply) and you can't do justice to any of these in an edit summary. Go talk, the other editors are fully willing to listen to you and that's also the best way to get help finding more sources. But edit warring is not the answer - it doesn't work, and it disrupts the encyclopedia. So stop reverting now and go talk it through on both talk pages. Yngvadottir (talk) 12:40, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

 * @ Yngvadottir: I'm sorry to have to report that El Cazangero has again reverted at Balm of Gilead and at Queen of Sheba. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:40, 19 October 2014 (UTC)

Printing problem
Although I can't help you with that, the people who can are at Village pump (technical). Dougweller (talk) 16:30, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Blocked
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 36 hours for edit warring and failure to discuss on the article talk pages. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Yngvadottir (talk) 12:01, 19 October 2014 (UTC)

Since the block ...
El Cazangero: I've had to revert your changes at Shulamite and Shulammite because they constituted a copy/paste move. I've started a talk page section at Talk:Shulamite; please explain there why you wished to move the article.

I still see you editing without discussing at Balm of Gilead. Please go present your position on the article talk page. Otherwise you will continue to waste your expertise, because your changes have been challenged and you have not shown why they make the article better. Yngvadottir (talk) 04:59, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Same applies for the Queen of Sheba again, Yngvadottir. He made his first section on the talk page, which, starting with the title, was rather offensive, his reasoning for further disruptive edits sort of funny. Even if you Cazangero believe, that Léopold Sédar Senghor were a racist, and less of Afrika's greatest intellectual, you wouldnt be allowed to delete his points about the Queen of Sheba. Come back with less POV and suggest what you want before you erase valid content. Serten (talk) 11:02, 25 October 2014 (UTC)

 * El Cazangero, is right. Thanks for going to the talk page, but you need to go back there again, provide specifics, and actually discuss. You are still simply reverting - edit warring - without any discussion at Balm of Gilead and need to go to that talk page too, and discuss. Explain your point of view and others may agree in whole or in part. They are very unlikely to do so if you just edit war. And if you continue to edit war, you are subject to further blocks.

 * I notice also that you are using encyclopedias as sources, for example in your almost total rewrite of Tohu wa-bohu. That's not good. Find some more specialized academic sources (secondary, as opposed to tertiary like Wikipedia itself). Yngvadottir (talk) 12:03, 25 October 2014 (UTC)

Balm of Gilead Pistacia lentiscus.
I am impressed by the quality of your work and scholarship- but I have a tiny problem with the title. I can't find a reference to suggest that Balm of Gilead is other than Pistacia lentiscus- and that the Balm of Mecca is anything other than Commiphora gileadensis. If that can be proven I can support your text. -- Clem Rutter (talk) 00:27, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

Chrysocolla (gold-solder)
I've undone your move of Chrysocolla to restore the primary mineralogical usage and renamed your new article Chrysocolla (gold-solder). If there is a better name for the article it can be changed. Please discuss such moves of longstanding articles on their talk before any such moves in the future. Vsmith (talk) 14:47, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Smoking Articles
Hi. I see you've been doing some good work on articles relating to tobacco smoking. Just to explain why I've reverted/removed some of it. You need to take care that you stay focussed on the article subject, and not wander into related topics that are best, and more comprehensively, covered in their own articles. So, for instance, you have created an article on tobacco smoke, but this article shouldn't be discussing in any degree of detail tobacco smoking, which has its own article already.

Otherwise it could be suspected that you are creating what is known as POV Forks and/or using the article as a "coat rack". Thanks. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 21:41, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

April 2016
Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Free base. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Plagiarism, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 21:40, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Crack cocaine, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. Cahk (talk) 09:58, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Ways to improve Bedrocan
Hi, I'm Rasimmons. El Cazangero, thanks for creating Bedrocan!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. The article could use more references to determine the notability of the strain and the accuracy of the information within the article.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. R. A. S immons Talk 14:14, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for violating copyright policy by copying text or images into Wikipedia from another source without verifying permission. You have been previously warned that this is against policy, but have persisted.

Please take this opportunity to be sure you understand our copyright policy and our policies regarding how to use non-free content. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page:. Doug Weller talk 17:50, 11 June 2016 (UTC)

 * You seem to be making the claim that sources from archive.org are free (that is, freely licensed). Could you please clarify that? It's absolutely false on its face but I'm not sure whether or not you are claiming this. A clarification would help the unblock procedure. --Yamla (talk) 12:10, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm also concerned by "I do not violate any copyright, I always cite correctly and include the source". Correct attribution does not give you the right to copy the source content into Wikipedia unless it is already freely licensed. Correct attribution is a valid defence against plagiarism but not against copyright violation - they are very different things. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 12:51, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

The suggestion that it is acceptable to violate someone's copyright until they actually find out and complain is stunningly ignorant and arrogant - it's akin to saying it's acceptable to steal from shops so long as the shopkeeper does not notice and does not pursue you! Unless you radically change your approach to respecting copyright law and to respecting Wikipedia's copyright policy, I see no chance of your being unblocked. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 13:09, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

Nomination of Bediol for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Bediol is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Bediol until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 18:43, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Bedrobinol

Once when I was a young boy, I can remember smelling the sweet fragrance of paint and paint thinners as I sat in my rocking chair at my old english home in Jasper. The fragrant odor created this dizzying aura around me. The feeling was just great: I could see the air and touch the sky. I realized the climax of this mental state when it dawned on me that applying simulation to the study of catalysis is my true calling. Thanks to John Buckley for this description, he's my homeboy.

Taautus

Taautus of Byblos, according to the Phoenician writer Sanchuniathon, was the son of Misor and the inventor of writing, who was bequeathed the land of Egypt by Cronus.

Sanchuniathon's writings, through the translation of Philo, were transmitted to us by Eusebius in his work Praeparatio evangelica. Eusebius says that Philo placed Sanchuniathon's works into nine books. In the introduction to the first book, he makes this preface concerning Sanchuniathon: "“These things being so, Sanchuniathon, who was a man of much learning and great curiosity, and desirous of knowing the earliest history of all nations from the creation of the world, searched out with great care the history of Taautus, knowing that of all men under the sun Taautus was the first who thought of the invention of letters, and began the writing of records: and he laid the foundation, as it were, of his history, by beginning with him, whom the Egyptians called Thouth, and the Alexandrians Thoth, translated by the Greeks into Hermes.”"

Philo further says that Taautus wrote the work Commentaries, in which he discussed the creation.

Tingi

Tingis (Latin; Τίγγις Tíngis) or Tingi (Ancient Berber:ⵜⵉⵏⴳⵉ), the ancient name of Tangier in Morocco, was an important Carthaginian, Moor, and Roman port on the Atlantic Ocean. It was eventually granted the status of a Roman colony and made the capital of the province of Mauretania Tingitana and, after Diocletian's reforms, the diocese of Hispania.

Legends
The Greeks claimed that Tingis had been named for a daughter of the titan Atlas, who was supposed to support the vault of heaven nearby. They claimed that the Berber legends comported with the stories of Hercules's labors, which carried him to North Africa and the North Atlantic to retrieve the golden apples of the Hesperides. Having killed her husband Antaeus and again condemned her father to eternally supporting the firmament, Hercules slept with Tinja and fathered the Berber hero Syphax. Syphax supposedly founded the port of Tingis and named it his mother's honor after her death. The gigantic skeleton and tomb of Antaeus were tourist attractions for ancient visitors. The Caves of Hercules, where he supposedly rested on Cape Spartel, remain one today.

Punic port
A settlement in Tingis began, at the earliest, in the 10th centuryBC by Phoenecians, before being settled around the beginning of the 6th century BC by Carthaginian colonists, who variously recorded the name of their settlement as,  (𐤕𐤍𐤂𐤀), and  (𐤕𐤉𐤍𐤂𐤀). The town is sometimes connected to the voyages of Hanno the Navigator.

Mauretanian city
After the Punic Wars, Carthage lost control of the colony to the Roman-allied kings of Mauretania. Its name during this time appears in Greek and Roman sources variously as Tenga, Tinga, Titga, &c. It maintained strong ties to its Carthaginian heritage, issuing bronze coins with Punic legends reading "City of Titga" (𐤁𐤏𐤋𐤕 𐤕𐤕𐤂𐤀, ), "City of Tinga" (𐤁𐤏𐤋𐤕 𐤕𐤉𐤍𐤂𐤀, ), or "people of Tinga" (𐤌𐤁𐤏𐤋 𐤕𐤉𐤍𐤂𐤀, ). These bore Baal or (via interpretatio Graeca) Demeter's head obverse and wheat reverse.

Roman provincial capital
The town came under Roman rule in the 1st centuryBC. Q.Sertorius, took and held Tingis for a number of years in the 70sBC as part of his war against Sulla's regime in Rome. Tingis grew in importance as a free city under Augustus and then as a colony under Claudius, who made it the capital of Mauritania Tingitana. As a Roman colony, it bore the formal name Colonia Iulia Tingi, the "Julian colony of Tingis". Under the early empire, it began to use Latin script, issuing its bronze coins with the legend ; these bore Augustus and Agrippa's heads obverse and Baal's head reverse.

"Called Colonia Iulia Tingi on its coins, governed most likely under Latin law and at first attached administratively to Spain, it became under Claudius a Roman colony and chief city of the province of Mauretania Tingitana after it was set up. In 297 the city probably served Maximianus as a base during his campaign against the Moorish rebels, and it was very likely about this time that the Christians Marcellus and Cassienus were put to death. The former belonged to a Spanish community, the latter, however, probably to a local church which funerary inscriptions show existed in the 4th-5th c. although there is no mention of a bishopric until the 6th c. The limits of the ancient settlement are clearly marked by the necropolis discovered to the northwest (that of Marshan and Avenue Cenario), to the west (Mendoubia) and south (Bou Kachkach). Nothing remains of the substructures, which could still be seen on the seashore at the beginning of the century. There were also some baths underneath the Casbah, and confused remains of a monument—apparently a Christian basilica—have been uncovered in the Rue de Belgique. So far as the rest of the city is concerned one can only presume that the forum was situated on the site of the Petit Socco and what was perhaps a temple on the site of the Great Mosque, and that the decumanus maximus corresponded roughly to the Zenga Es Siaghine. Among the few antiquities that have been discovered, the only noteworthy finds, aside from inscriptions and a few mosaic fragments, are a statue of a woman of indifferent workmanship and a mutilated head of the emperor Galba."

As a provincial capital, Tingis developed and prospered. In the 4th century, it surpassed Volubilis when that city was left south of the Roman lines and unprotected by Roman legions. Tingis at its peak reached 20,000 inhabitants, all thoroughly romanized and mostly Christian. Tingis was famed throughout the Roman Empire for its fishing conserve industry. Under Septimius Severus, two Roman roads were constructed from Tingis: one on the Atlantic coast to Sala Colonia and the second into the mountainous interior toward Volubilis.

During Diocletian's reform of Roman governmental structures in AD296, Mauretania Tingitana became part of the Diocese of Hispania. Tingis remained the capital of the larger territory, maintaining its status and development.

Later history
The Vandals conquered and occupied Tingis around AD425 before sweeping across the Roman Maghreb.

Between 534 and 682, Tingis was restored to Byzantine control. Tingis was fortified and a new church erected. However, its commercial strength had waned, a change attested by its decreased issuance of coins.

Tingis fell under the control of the Umayyad Caliphate as part of the Muslim conquest of North Africa in 702, after which it was reduced to a small town more commonly discussed under the name Tangier. Moussa Ibn Noussair organized the conquest of Spain from Tingis and nearby Septem in 706.

Religion
The Christian history of Tingis started during the second half of the first century, under Claudius's rule. Originally, the city was part of the larger province of Mauretania Caesariensis, which included most of the Roman Maghreb. Later the area was subdivided, with the eastern part keeping the former name and the newer part receiving the name of Mauretania Tingitana. It is not known exactly at what period there may have been an episcopal see at Tangier in ancient times, but in the late Middle Ages Tangier was a titular see (i.e., an honorific fiction for the appointment of curial and auxiliary bishops). For the historical reasons given above, one official list of the Roman Curia places the see in Mauretania Caesariensis.

Towards the end of the third century, Tingis was the scene of the martyrdom of StMarcellus, mentioned in the Roman Martyrology on 30 October, and of St.Cassian, mentioned on 3 December. Indeed, according to tradition, the martyrdom of StMarcellus took place on 28 July 298.

A small Christian community survived in Tangier as late as the 10th century. Due to its Christian past, Tangier—under the name Tingis—is still a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church.

Thanks for the contributions to smarta. Because of the overwhelmingly predominance of Advaita among Smarta brahmins, I almost accepted that they were equivalent. But as a practical manner, probably 99% of smarta brahmins are raised in advaita. It's interesting you point out that the Iyers apply gopichanda. Kota Brahmins of Karnataka apply bhasma or ash.

Natyasastra
Nātyasāstra is the sastra of natya and i dont know whether you are aware of it or not, the exact title of the book writen by sage Bharata Muni is "Nātyasāstra". And widely all over the world Nātyasāstra refers to the work of Bharata. Sreekanthv 08:16, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Its better to keep the page Natyasastra as it is now. Now there wont be any confusion. I agree that the meaning of natyasastra is sastra of natya only, but as you know its commonly reffered to as Natyasatra of Bharata.

The most ancient drama tradition of world, Koodiyattam ( which is far far old- atleast 1500 years compared to Bharatanatyam )strictly followes Natyasastra of Bharata. The legendary guru Māni Mādhava Chākyār had an indepth knowledge on the subject. Anyway we will try to keep update the page.

Sangay National Park

Sangay National Park (Parque Nacional Sangay) is a national park located in the Morona-Santiago, Chimborazo, Tungurahua, Cañar, and Azuay provinces of Ecuador. The park contains two active volcanoes (Tungurahua and Sangay), one extinct volcano El Altar (Kapak Urku). Protecting a range of elevations from 900 to 5319 m above sea level, Sangay National Park contains a wide variety of habitats, including glaciers, volcanic landscapes, tropical rainforests, cloud forests, wetlands, grasslands, and one of the largest regions of páramo (high elevation moorlands) in Ecuador. 327 lakes feed into a vast wetland system covering 31.5 km2.

Because of its complex ecology and geology, as well as its outstanding biodiversity, the park has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1983. In 1992, it was added to the List of World Heritage in Danger due to illegal poaching, extensive grazing, unplanned road construction, and encroachment of the park's perimeter. It was removed from the UNESCO list of endangered sites in 2005.

Biodiversity
Due to the variety of habitats found within the park, the fertile volcanic soil, and the relatively unaltered landscape, Sangay National Park preserves an exceptional number of native species. Over 3,000 flowering plant species have been documented within the park, in addition to more than 430 bird, 107 mammal, 33 amphibian, 14 reptile, and 17 fish species.

The National Park is an important refuge for rare species of the Andes, like the mountain tapir and spectacled bear. The park is a vital stronghold for the endangered mountain tapir in particular. In the forests below live spectacled bears, giant otter, jaguar, ocelot, margay, Brazilian tapir, white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus ustus), little red brocket deer and Northern pudu. The cougar and pampas cat have been recorded in the park as well. Caenolestes sangay, a species of shrew opossum, was originally described in 2013 from specimens collected from Sangay National Park.

Over 400 bird species inhabit the Park, and it has been recognised as an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International. Notable bird species resident to the park include the Andean Condor and Andean Cock-of-the-rock.

In 2016, a new frog species in the genus Pristimantis (Pristimantis tinguichaca) was described from the park's cloud forest.

Talk:Akershus Fortress

Akershus never been conquered?
On the English page it says that the fortress was conquered during World War II, on the Norwegian article it says it was never conquered.

"The fortress has survived many sieges, primarily Swedish, and, with the exception of WWII, never been conquered by a foreign enemy."

"Borgen har overlevd flere beleiringer, og har aldri blitt inntatt med makt av en fiendtlig, utenlandsk hær.1"

"1: Festningen var under tysk kommando 1940-1945, men ble aldri inntatt, men kommandoen overgitt både i 1940 og i 1945."

Which one is right? There has been a lenghty discussion on Norwegian W about this topic. I have argued for that it can not be so, as the fortress was controlled by the Germans from 1940 to 1945. As I read the sentence on the Norwegian language article it seems to be trying to cover "lost Norwegian honor", I really cant see any other reason for the statement. The majority was however of the opinion that the fortress never had been conquered. If that is the accepted fact by historians, it should also be stated in the article in English. If not - the Norwegian article should be changed. Ulflarsen 13:11, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

AFAIK, no attempts were made to man and defend Akershus on 9 April, so in a strict sense, it was not conquered by the Germans. Fornadan (t) 13:55, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

 * The nation's territory was conquered. The fortress is part of the nation's territory. The region was conquered by shock and awe and overwhelming force at Fornebu at Snarøya, around 3 kilometers outside present-day Oslo. --Poctogain (talk) 14:15, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

Akershus never been conquered - some suggested wording

 * Added a few words to clarify this topic. Akershus has a rich and important history, which deserves yet more effort, but that will have to wait for later. Williamborg 19:51, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

Attack in 1308
There seems to be a discrepancy, either the wrong link given or else misinformation, in the part dealing with the attack of 1308. The article states: "The fortress was first used in battle in 1308, when it was besieged by the Swedish duke Eric of Södermanland, who later in the same year won the Swedish throne." However, when one clicks on the link for "Eric", one is taken to the page for Eric X of Sweden. This page states that Eric X lived from 1180 to 1216. How could he have attacked Akershus almost 100 years after his death? Either the year of the invasion is wrong, or the link goes to the wrong Eric.
 * Just found this page. It looks like this is the correct Eric.  Also, according to this article it was Eric's brother, not Eric himself, who won the Swedish throne.

Veteran's organizations located at the fortress
I am one of the editors in the article about Gunnar Sønsteby. What is the name of the building that houses one or more veterans' organizations? The old kommandantbolig? --No parking here (talk) 10:37, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Arnold Edward Ortmann

Arnold Edward Ortmann (April 8, 1863 – January 3, 1927) was a Prussian-born United States naturalist and zoologist who specialized in malacology.

Biography
Ortmann was born in Magdeburg, Prussia on April 8, 1863. A student of Ernst Haeckel, he graduated from the University of Jena in 1885 with a Ph.D.; he had also studied at the University of Kiel and the University of Strasbourg. From 1886 on, he worked as an instructor at the University of Strasbourg. Together with Haeckel, he participated in an expedition to Zanzibar in 1890/91. Three years later, he emigrated to the United States, where he got a post as the curator of the department of invertebrate paleontology at Princeton University. He was elected to the American Philosophical Society in 1897. In 1899, he participated in the Peary Relief expedition, and one year later, he was naturalized as a U.S. citizen.

In 1903, he moved to Pittsburgh. He became the curator of invertebrate zoology at the Carnegie Museum and from 1910 on, he was professor of physical geography at the University of Pittsburgh, where he also obtained in 1911 the additional degree of an Sc.D. In 1925, he became the chair of zoology at the University of Pittsburgh. He died in Pittsburgh on January 3, 1927.

Work
Ortmann's thorough taxonomic studies of freshwater mussels and crustaceans with a special focus on the geographical distribution of species was a fundamental groundwork that is even valid today. In 1920, he formulated "Ortmann's Law of Stream Position", which said that a species of mussels can have a different appearance depending on where in a river system the individuals live:

"While studying the Naiad-shells of the upper Ohio-drainage, the fact was forced upon my mind, that certain species which inhabit the headwaters and smaller streams are represented, in the larger streams, by different, but very similar forms, which are distinguished from them chiefly by one character, namely obesity. The headwater-forms are rather compressed or flat, the large-river-forms more convex and swollen. I also found that in the rivers of medium size intergrades between the extremes are actually present."

- A. E. Ortmann (1920)

This observation helped greatly to simplify the taxonomy of molluscs, because previously, researchers had all too often assigned such different morphotypes to different species.

The standard author abbreviation "A.E.Ortmann" is used to indicate Ortmann when citing a botanical name.

Publications
He was associate editor of American Naturalist for a time, and contributed to periodicals.
 * Grundzüge der Marinen Tiergeographie ("Foundations of marine animal geography", 1886)
 * Continuation of "Die Decapodon" from Bronn's Klassen und Ordnungen des Tierreichs (1898-1900)
 * Tertiary Invertebrates of the Princeton Expedition to Patagonia (1902)

South Dravidian languages

South Dravidian (also called "South Dravidian I") is one of the four major branches of the Dravidian languages family. It includes the literary languages Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Tulu, as well as several non-literary languages such as Badaga, Irula, Kota, Kurumba, Toda and Kodava.

Kannada, Tamil and Malayalam are recognized among the official languages of India and are spoken mainly in South India. All three are officially recognized as classical languages by the Government of India, along with Sanskrit, Telugu, and Odia.

Phonological features
Tamil and Malayalam have both retroflex lateral and retroflex approximant  sounds, whereas most of the remaining like Kannada have merged the central approximant with the lateral. Evidence shows that both retroflex approximant and the retroflex laterals were once (before the 10th century) also present in Kannada. However, all the retroflex approximants changed into retroflex laterals in Kannada later. In Kannada, the bilabial voiceless plosive at the beginning of many words has disappeared to produce a glottal fricative  or has disappeared completely. This change was later taken to other Kannadoid languages and Tuluoid languages like Bellari and Koraga, eg. Tamil peyar, Kannada hesaru, Bellari/Koraga hudari; Tamil puṟṟu, Jenu Kuruba uṯṯu, Ka. puttu, huttu, uttu.

Tamil-Malayalam and Telugu show the conversion of Voiceless velar plosive into Voiceless palatal plosive  at the beginning of the words (refer to comparative method for details). Kannada and other languages, however, are totally inert to this change and hence the velar plosives are retained as such or with minimum changes in the corresponding words, eg. Tamil ceṭi, Irula gïḍa, Toda kïḍf, Kannada giḍa, Telugu ceṭṭu.

Tulu is characterized by its r/l and s/c/t alternation, for e.g. sarɛ, tarɛ across Tulu dialects compare with Kannada tale. The alveolar ṯ, ṯṯ, nṯ became post alveolar or dental, the singular ones usually becomes a trill in other Dravidian languages, e.g. Tamil oṉṟu, āṟu, nāṟu, nāṟṟam, muṟi, kīṟu; Tulu oñji, āji, nāduni, nāta, {mudipuni, muyipuni}, {kīruni, gīcuni}. The retroflex approximant mostly became a and also, e.g. Tamil ēẓu, puẓu, Tulu {ēḷŭ, ēlŭ, ēḍŭ}, puru.

The vowels have mostly remained the same with the 5 /a, e, i, o, u/ + length; Malayalam and Tulu have an extra /ə̆/ and /ɯ/. The Nilagiri languages developed a set of centralized vowel around retroflexes and alveolars with Irula having /ɨ, ʉ, ə, ɵ/ + length. Kurumba languages have nasalized vowels, eg. Jenu Kuruba ã·we, Kannada āme, āve, ēve, ēme, Tamil yāmai, āmai.

Grammar
Malayalam lost the prononial endings of verbs. Kannada lost clusivity. Old Tamil retained the PD like tense system of past vs non past but none currently do, all have past, present, future.

Classification and terminology
The Dravidian languages form a close-knit family. Four subgroups are generally accepted: South Dravidian, South-Central Dravidian, Central Dravidian and North Dravidian. Most scholars agree that the South Dravidian and South-Central Dravidian branches (called "Tamil-Tulu" and "Telugu-Kui" in ) are more closely related to each other than to the other branches of the Dravidian languages. For this reason, Krishnamurti suggested the alternative terms South Dravidian I for the former branch and South Dravidian II for the latter.

South Dravidian is classified internally into two subbranches: Tamil–Kannada and Tulu. The languages that constitute the Tamil–Kannada branch are Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, Irula, Toda, Kota, Kodava, and Badaga and the languages that constitute the Tulu branch are Tulu, Koraga, Kudiya, Bellari.

According to R. C. Hiremath, Director of International School of Dravidian Linguistics in Trivandrum, the separation of Tamil and Kannada into independent languages from the Tamil–Kannada inner branch started with the separation of Tulu in about 1500 BCE and completed in about 300 BCE.

Car accident secrets
FYI, Car Accident Secrets is a book for sale, and the web site promoting it is an advertisement for the book; it has nothing to offer users of a free, public-domain encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not a link repository; it's an encyclopedia. As such, I have recommended that Car accident secrets and the image used on that page be deleted. If you want to state your rationale for inclusion in wikipedia, please go to those pages, click the link for comments about the deletion recommendation, and add your signed comments there. Thanks.

Howard Stern Fan Sites
See the discussion, very interesting you go from linking to a fan site you want, then you say no fan sites are allowed. Please, read WP:EL you're a known vandal. LilDice 01:45, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Untrue - between Lil Dice and Seicer who think they are the police on wikipedia its total BS. What is allowed from some articles is not allowed for others. So my point was that if you are going to allow fan sites for Howard Stern then you must allow them here.

Stern Fan Network
I appreciate your thoughts about Stern Fan Network. However, moving pages is not the recommended approach when you believe that a page should be deleted; please read Deletion policy for more information. I have put things back the way they were, but feel free to have a go at it again according to the policy. Matchups 01:52, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

You're right that fan pages are not allowed. However, articles about notable fan clubs are allowed. If the article is telling about the club, its history, relationship to the subject, etc. in an neutral way, and the article otherwise meets criteria for inclusion, it can stay. On the other hand, if the page is up just to tell about how great somebody is, and perhaps to function as a blog of anecdotes about listing to a performer, it should be deleted. It appears to me that the article qualifies for inclusion; there are several references and the article discusses the club, not the performer. If you disagree, or if you find another article which does not meet WP's criteria, you should follow the process at Articles for deletion; in that case, I can try to help you.

By the way, please remember to sign your comments on talk pages with four tildes. Matchups 14:43, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
