User talk:Cate

Welcome from Redwolf24
Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We as a community are glad to have you and thank you for creating a user account! Here are a few good links for newcomers:
 * The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style
 * Merging, redirecting, and renaming pages
 * If you're ready for the complete list of Wikipedia documentation, there's also Topical index.

Yes some of the links appear a bit boring at first, but they are VERY helpful if you ever take the time to read them.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, please be sure to sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes ( Redwolf24 08:13, 12 July 2005 (UTC) ) to produce your name and the current date, or three tildes ( Redwolf24 ) for just your name. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome.

Redwolf24

P.S. I like messages :-P

P.P.S. You own a vineyard?!

 * Vineyard: yes, a private and very small one. I work on it only some weekends as hobby, but I have enought grapes to make some wines and to sell grapes to a local commercial winemaker Cate 08:48, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * messages ? -> messages in personal talk pages? (I should read more about talk pages)

 * That mustve cost some money.. Anywho about messages, yes a message at my Talk Page. Redwolf24 09:04, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Just saying again if you need any help from an experienced Wikipedian, ask me at my talk page. :) Redwolf24 09:24, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Sandboxes
I noticed on your user page you have a section called "personal sandbox" and I thought you might want to know that you can have more than one such sandbox by creating subpages. It's easy to do, just link to the page (such as, User:Cate/Sandbox) then follow the link. Good to have you on board! Oh, and if Redwolf24 gives you any lip, give him a good thrashing! ; - ) -- Essjay ·  Talk 09:10, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

Dates
The MoS is slightly misleading; it fails to mention that there is no difference between: As you'll see, whether you see the comma is dependent upon how you have your browser set up (just as is the order of the elements); I see both of them as "27 March 1956", for example. I tend to delete the commas in such cases as a (tiny, in fact infinitesimal) gesture towards saving space and time. --Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 22:08, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 27 March 1956 and
 * March 27, 1956

Okay
Alright, I know what I said was wrong, but I was just frustrated. And thanks for showing me those pages, that should help. The Fascist Chicken 12:57, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Hey!!
Hey Cate I was glad to see you again at my talk page against that crazy anon :) I really appreciate it. R  e  dwolf24  (talk) 22:15, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

User categorisation
You were listed on the Wikipedians/Switzerland page as living in or being associated with Switzerland. As part of the User categorisation project, these lists are being replaced with user categories. If you would like to add yourself to the category that is replacing the page, please visit Category:Wikipedians in Switzerland for instructions. --Army1987 14:09, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

Japan-related stubs
You do have a point, but stub categories are intended to be automagically added by stub templates, not added by hand without the accompanying stub text. I put on those two articles for now, as the aticles don't strike me as being stubs (which is why I removed the category in the first place). Caerwine 13:02, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

Metabolism

 * Moved from my user page. Cate 09:58, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

My name is Bill Riley and I am writing an article on "Basal Metabolic Rate." It is my first "outing" with wikipedia. It needs to be "wikified." Could you help? Thank you and your thoughts are excellent! I am a Physical Therapist Assistant and my background is in Exercise Physiology utilizing indirect calorimetry for people who wish to lose weight! BRileyPTA@aol.com

Cate, thanks again for moving my comments to the right section! Could the background that you have in Theoretical Physics be applied to the idea that BMR is a dynamic value that interacts among the systems of the body favoring certain substrates which correspondingly alter the ratio to protect these substances and that this could be revealed through gas analysis? BRileyPTA 17:06, 23 September 2006 (UTC)BRileyPTABRileyPTA 17:06, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Filmmaking article assessments
Thank you so much for helping to begin the process of article assessment for WikiProject Filmmaking! I'd also like to personally invite you to join the project if you haven't already, seeing as you're helping out with the heavy lifting! :) Thanks again, Girolamo Savonarola 19:35, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Boundary changes in the district of Blenio
Thanks for picking up on this, and changing it back. Do you have any more details on the new commune of Blenio, such as its municipality identification number, or a link to its coat of arms? I have been unable to find these. Regards, --BillC 11:01, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I will check and give you more information. AFAIK there is no yet a coat of arm. The first election are done Sunday 22 Oct (tomorrow). For the other question I should check the statistic data. (BTW the election: Blenio from: Aquila, Campo Blenio, Ghirone, Olivone and Torre; and Cevio from: Bignasco, Cavergno e Cevio. Cate 18:59, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I found these links: list of all municipalities and districts of Switzerland: http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/it/index/news/publikationen.Document.69204.zip ; and the changes in 2006 http://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/portal/it/index/news/publikationen.Document.83572.pdf . I hope it help you. If you need help for translation, just ask. Cate 08:34, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks for this, I'll check it out. Replying here on your own talk page is fine as I usually watch someone's talk page after having placed a message there myself. --BillC 19:11, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Carlo Maderno
If Carlo Maderno was a "Swiss architect" as naively insisted upon, the "Swissness" of his architecture needs to be discussed. We await enlightenment from User:Cate. No need to respond directly: I have Carlo Maderno on my Watchlist. Thank you.--Wetman 19:29, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

dreamascript
hi, i was wondering if you could help me with the dreamascript guy who has been spamming several articles. not only that, he also resorts to deleting comments from the discussion page. can't we do something about it? Sanssheriff 14:14, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

 * You are violating the WP:3RR rule. In the WP:3RR rule you will find some information about action to avoid edit wars. Cate 15:40, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Polarity via AWB
Cate, you seem to be adding a lot of redlinks to articles via AWB. Can you check that you have the right link for Polarity before you do any more? Thanks, Walkerma 10:08, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
 * oops! Sorry :-( . Now I think I corrected my errors. Cate 10:42, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Cate, well done on the userbox. Looks like we have two at the moment, though! Would you be interested in joining the discussion about merging them? Thanks, Girolamo Savonarola 03:12, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Vandalism Research
I'm just doing research into the wiki community to see how vndlisers are dealt with. There is actualy a few thousand of us conducting this exprmnt, its getting very interesting. I think what drives us on and gives us a sense of purpose is the outspoken warnings we get, you might want to look into that as a means of detering us, but not yet. We will be publishing our findings soon! 82.39.9.197 20:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

 * There are already a lot of vandalism in wikipedia. Instead of waste our time, you should investigate existing vandalism. Research is also observation. And your vandalism is an high level (contrary of most of vandalism). I noticed that you know the policy (and used countrary of common sense, so your vandalism is not representative. - Cate | Talk 20:48, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

 * I know the policy very well but there is a social black hole, since as you warned me to keep off your turf; wikipedia, you thus challanged me, and there is nothing a vandal wants more than a challange. You should consider this one very interesting point. To end off, I advise you to create a userbox stating you are a silent revertionist, ignoring vandals and simply posting them the welcome message repeatedly until a final block. I know it is policy to warn, but it is foolish. The userbox will spread fast. In fact there are allready a few arround. 82.39.9.197 20:56, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

 * These challenges are common, but it seems that normally user behave WP:COOL. And if you note, the vandalism warning, and the deletion of vandalism is made by a lot of people, which help greatly against vandal (and they challanges), because attacks become less personal. BTW: I'm not an admin, so my user page is seldom attacked, but if you check admins pages you will find a lot of personal attack.  About user boxes: people (and vandal) usually don't check user pages, so your idea is not so good.  Cate |Talk 09:57, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

DNS
Upss... Thank you for correcting my spelling mistake (DNS 2007-02-21T05:22:05Z) <-- a lazy neuron of mine didn't get up at time ;p (Rjgodoy 06:34, 24 February 2007 (UTC))

Ciass
Hello Cate, thank you for posing the question if the pedestrian zone in Chiasso is or is not encyclopedic (and sorry for delay in replying, I am not yet a regular contributor to English wikipedia). Indeed, the present structure of thr article is far from satisfying. I planned to make a substantial expansion by translating the information by the municipality posted up in Bernasconi square. Yet my point of view is that of a person who has fallen in love with this town since many years, so I should make any efforts to be neutral! In fact I have been a little bit disappointed by the referendum break down about the pedestrian zone, but... that's direct democracy! Maybe you have already noticed me: I am a client of Cerrutti bar in S.Gottardo avenue and of the leggere bookshop; moreover I often go to the post office to get my mail. I have a full beard and I bring a pin with the Swiss flag on my jacket. Cheers, --Clamengh 14:21, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Articles for deletion/The Lama Foundation
I've gone ahead and done some work on this article. If you have a chance, would you take a moment to look, and see whether it'd affect your opinion for the AFD? -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 22:01, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Sealand afd
Hope you don't mind me pointing out... re your merge opinion, the information's already in the main article. See the other contributions to the AfD. --Dweller 13:13, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah. I think I misunderstood you. Were you saying that there's an issue because the template on the main article transcludes images from the sub articles? --Dweller 13:15, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Maderno
You know? When I wrote it I had the same doubt... I said myself to verify but later forgot. Thanks and good work. --Attilios 15:48, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Filmmaking Announcement
A PROPOSED PROJECT MERGER with WikiProject Films is under consideration. All opinions and questions are strongly encouraged! Girolamo Savonarola 01:17, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Public vs. Private DNS Servers
Let me respond to the question in your edit comments on DNS. Think, in this context, of separate public (i.e., registered) and private (RFC1918) address space.

Assume you have an address-translating firewall between your internal network and the public Internet, at enterprise example.com. Let foo.example.com be an internal server. You have a /28 subnet as your outside DMZ, which contains the Internet routers, public DNS, and a firewall. The outside address of the firewall is public (e.g., 198.0.2.1), but the inside address is in RFC1918 space and has the address 10.1.2.3.

When an inside user wants to access foo.example.com, the DNS lookup goes to an "private" DNS and resolves to the actual address 10.1.2.3. When an outside user, coming in from the Internet, wants to go to foo.example.com, the public DNS will resolve that to the outside address of the firewall at 192.0.2.3. If the request passes through the firewall, the firewall will substitute a destination address of 10.1.2.3. Howard C. Berkowitz 15:27, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Reviewer granted
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Calmer  Waters  14:29, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

His name is Robert Vernon Spears not Richard Spears
Your redirect is incorrect. Read the obituary-

http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=888&dat=19690503&id=GP0NAAAAIBAJ&sjid=yHsDAAAAIBAJ&pg=5150,1886847

In the future, check google news archives. Now an administrator is going to have to fix your over two years old mistake.- William 23:01, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

 * I don't understand. I don't see edits on both pages (and on pages which link to that pages), and surely I didn't add names (either wrong or correct). Maybe I was trying to help about the question in Talk:Robert Vernon Spears (in such case i did edit only few months ago). Please clarify and please link the relevant changes! Note: National Airlines Flight 2511 still link to Richard Spears. Cate |Talk 18:49, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link fixing one-day contest
I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day (see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 02:05, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Nilgiri tea

Would anyone object to an infobox as in WikiProject_Tea to be placed or would that intefere with the image, not sure how to proceed. --Iateasquirrel 08:15, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

 * No replies = Infobox placed. I hope it's not bad that I used a non-tea image in the Infobox. Still listed under No images as it needs a proper image! --Iateasquirrel 01:55, 18 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Looks good to me. Some one has uploaded an image of the tea and the region, so it should be off the No image list by now  D A Patriarche (talk) 03:04, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

Suggestions for Improvement

 * description of taste in 1st para - expand to more specific & descriptive terms linked to good ref. E.g., "is generally described as" is weasel, and "dark, intensely aromatic, fragrant and flavoured" could equally describe Darjeeling and some Assams. The Darjeeling page is a good example. BTW, I am fortunate to have some Nilgiri FOP "Chamraj", presumably from Chamarajanagar.  It is somewhere between Assam and Darjeeling, tending toward Assam; the dry leaves smell surprisingly like Keemun and both the leaves and tea resemble top-grade Kenyan.  I will do some research to find a suitable cite when I find time but feel free to preempt me! D A Patriarche (talk) 03:30, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

Broken Link
Wiki-link "United Planters Association of South India" is a dead or obsolete link. Either create a page for UPASI or change to an external link. D A Patriarche (talk) 04:17, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

Cercomonad

Cercomonads are small amoeboflagellates, widespread in aqueous habitats and common in soils.

Characteristics
The cells are generally around 10 μm in length, without any shell or covering. They produce filose pseudopods to capture bacteria, but do not use them for locomotion, which usually takes place by gliding along surfaces.

Most members have two flagella, one directed forward and one trailing under the cell, inserted at right angles near its anterior. The nucleus is connected to the flagellar bases and accompanied by a characteristic paranuclear body.

Classification
Genetic studies place the cercomonads among the Cercozoa, a diverse group of amoeboid and flagellate protozoans. They are divided into two families.
 * The Heteromitidae tend to be relatively rigid, and produce only temporary pseudopods.
 * The Cercomonadidae are more plastic, and when food supplies are plentiful may become amoeboid and even multinucleate.

The classification of genera and species continues to undergo revision. Some genera have been merged, like Cercomonas and Cercobodo. Others like Helkesimastix, Sainouron and Cholamonas have been moved to Helkesida, while the rest of the family Heteromitidae has been moved to Glissomonadida. Most recently, the family Paracercomonadidae, previously included in this order, has been separated into its own order Paracercomonadida. This change has made Cercomonadidae the only existing family of cercomonads.

Infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis

Infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (INCL) or Santavuori disease or Hagberg–Santavuori disease or Santavuori–Haltia disease or Infantile Finnish type neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis or Balkan disease is a form of NCL and inherited as a recessive autosomal genetic trait. The disorder is progressive, degenerative and fatal, extremely rare worldwide – with approximately 60 official cases reported by 1982, perhaps 100 with the condition in total today – but relatively common in Finland due to the local founder effect.

Presentation
The development of children born with INCL is normal for the first 8–18 months, but will then flounder and start to regress both physically and mentally. Motor skills and speech are lost, and optic atrophy causes blindness. A variety of neurological symptoms, such as epilepsy and myoclonic seizures, appear. The senses of hearing and touch remain unaffected. The average lifespan of an INCL child is 9–11 years.

Causes
It has been associated with palmitoyl-protein thioesterase.

Treatment
Treatment is limited. Drugs can alleviate the symptoms, such as sleep difficulties and epilepsy. Physiotherapy helps affected children retain the ability to remain upright for as long as possible, and prevents some of the pain.

Recent attempts to treat INCL with cystagon have been unsuccessful.

University of St Andrews
Hi there,

I graduated in 2001 and had experience of fair few different schools (School of Greek, Latin and Ancient History, School of Mathematics, School of Physics and Astronomy, School of Divinity, School of Modern Languages and School of Philosophical and Anthropological Studies) and would have to say that, in general, teaching was good to excellent. I did find some of the Physics and Maths lecures could be a bit "uninspiring" but the Tutorials and Labs were always top rate.

St Andrews has more than its fair share of eccentricities, but is a great place to study as it is such a tight-nit student community. As you are living on campus and the campus is also the town it is great place from the point of view of familiarity. There are people who are "stuck up" like you might find at Bristol, Durham or Oxbridge but most people are "regular" students. I would wholehearedly recommend anyone study at St Andrews.

I see you've already had one reply! I echo everything the previous responder says, except to say that I loved most of my first and second year maths and physics lecturers. I'm yet to see what Honours years will throw at me, but I'm looking forward to them. St Andrews is whatever you make it. The town, architechture wise is very traditional (for the most part), and there's a fair proportion of those that like to keep up tradition, but if you're not into that, then nobody's going to tell you you have to be into tradition. The countryside is barely a stone's throw and is beautiful. Just taking the journey from Edinburgh to St Andrews takes you through some nice rolling lowlands. We have a fairly active hillwalking society, so you should join them, should you choose to come here!

As for computer facilities, we have a fair few 24-hour computing labs, and all halls have 24-hour computing facilities. All rooms in halls have an ethernet port for fast internet access. Hope this is of some help - anything else, don't be afraid to message me again! M0RHI | Talk to me 23:45, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

University of St Andrews
I can really only echo what the previous two posters have said with regards to the town and the university in general. (Incidently, I know M0RHI in real life). I can go into more details on the Computer Science department though. In first year, you study two computer science modules, focusing on Java and programming basics, and some Internet-based programming, again in Java. Second year takes things a step further with algorithms and more fundamental aspects of computing. I've just started my second year, so can't really comment on later years, but the course is good. St Andrews is rated as the best university in Scotland for comp sci by the Guardian, IIRC, and the second best in the UK. The facilities are excellent - indeed, the 2nd year lab has just been kitted out with new 20" iMacs (very nice indeed) - a variety of systems are available and widely used over your four years here. Visit on an open day if you can, it's worth checking out. Good luck! orudge 22:43, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

J. Heinrich Matthaei

Johannes Heinrich Matthaei (born 4 May 1929) is a German biochemist. He is best known for his unique contribution to solving the genetic code on 15 May 1961.

Career
Whilst a post-doctoral visitor in the laboratory of Marshall Warren Nirenberg at the NIH in Bethesda, Maryland, he discovered that a synthetic RNA polynucleotide, composed of a repeating uridylic acid residue (Uracil), coded for a polypeptide chain encoding just one kind of amino acid, phenylalanine. In scientific terms, he discovered that polyU codes for polyphenylalanine and hence the coding unit for this amino acid is composed of a series of Us or, as we now know the genetic code is read in triplets, the codon for phenylalanine is UUU. This single experiment opened the way to the solution of the genetic code. It was for this and later work on the genetic code for which Nirenberg shared the Nobel Prize for Medicine and Physiology. In addition, Matthaei and his co-workers in the following years published a multitude of results concerning the early understanding of the form and function of the genetic code.

Why Matthaei, who personally deciphered the genetic code, was excluded from this scientific prize is one of the Nobel Prize controversies.

Later, Matthaei was a member of the Max Planck Society in Göttingen as a director.

Swifts Creek

Swifts Creek is a town in the Tambo Valley of East Gippsland, Victoria, Australia. The town is on the Great Alpine Road between Omeo and Ensay, 379 km east of the state capital Melbourne and 300 m above sea level. The area was originally settled by Europeans in the gold rushes of the mid-1800s. At the, Swifts Creek and the surrounding area had a population of 419, with a median age of 47.

History
The Aboriginal name for the site of Swifts Creek was Bun Jirrah Gingee Munjie, which translates as 'big kangaroos go to that place'. True to this name, mobs of large eastern grey kangaroos still frequent the town, especially at night when they are often seen feeding by the roadside, and on the local football ground and primary school oval.

The town of Swifts Creek is located at the confluence of Swifts Creek and the Tambo River. The creek was reputedly named after an otherwise unknown gold prospector named Swift who worked the creek panning for alluvial gold in the 1850s. The townsite itself was originally known as "Swifts Creek Junction", as it was at the road junction alongside Swifts Creek. Swift's Creek Post Office opened on 1 January 1867 and closed in 1879. Swift's Creek Junction Post Office opened on 1 May 1874 and was renamed Swift's Creek in 1926.

In the 1870s McLarty's Junction Hotel was established, and a small town with stores, service facilities, and a butter factory slowly grew up around the site.

The butter factory was constructed in 1907 and eventually produced 50 tonnes per annum, with the majority being sent for sale in Melbourne. Due to unreliable seasons, the factory eventually closed down in 1946. The building is no longer in existence, however Factory Lane just past the creek at the northern end of town marks its former location.

A flour mill was also planned, but was instead installed in the nearby town of Ensay in 1913. These factories were constructed as a result of local demand for flour, milk, butter and cream. The cost of transporting goods was high as wagons from the nearest large town of Bairnsdale took a week in good weather to travel the distance (now approximately an hour by car). Around this time, Ian Ezard built the Swifts Creek sawmill, which provided the stable economy the town needed to move on from its gold mining beginnings. In contrast, the surrounding towns of Cassilis and Tongio West collapsed, as the area lost its potential for gold mining.

Industry
The primary industries today are timber and farming of sheep and cattle. The Pentarch Group acquired the sawmill in June 2021 and the mill specialises in making wood pallets out of low grade local mountain ash timber. It uses an advanced system designed in France which aims at utilising the entire log, and thus making the process economical.

Besides this, the major employers in town are now the local branch of the Department of Sustainability and Environment (DSE), the Bush Nurses Centre and the government primary and secondary schools. There are also a number of small retail outlets and services, including a hotel, general store, gallery, cafe, bakery and post office. There is also a community centre, and a community hall.

Tourism

The district is also increasing in popularity as a tourist destination due to its central location in an area of outstanding natural beauty. The town itself offers limited tourist accommodation, including flats associated with the hotel and a newly renovated caravan park on the Tambo River (book through the IGA store). But there is plenty of accommodation in the district including cottage style accommodation approximately five kilometres from town heading towards Cassilis and many houses available for holiday rental on accommodation websites. The township is regarded as a gateway destination to the Alpine area, and the snow fields of Mt Hotham, but also is a target area for cyclists, hikers, anglers, walkers, photographers, painters and hunters.

The Great Alpine Gallery on the Great Alpine Road, Swifts Creek, was founded in 1998 as a non-profit community art-space operated entirely by volunteers. The Gallery is open five days a week, Thursdays to Mondays. Entry to the Gallery is free for all visitors, and everyone is welcome. The gallery promotes and sells arts and crafts by local artists, and has regular events such as the Great Alpine Arts Trail, workshops and open studios, as well as a regular exhibition and three special exhibitions per year.

The Poet's Walk is a 1.2 km stretch of Crown Land that forms a walkable track beginning at the Police Station off the Great Alpine Road at the northern end of the township and following Swifts Creek to the junction with the Tambo River. In 2017, a group of local volunteers began the work of reclaiming the track from years of neglect, and it is now an enjoyable walk suitable for most abilities. New specialised areas are being introduced, including a rain forest section, as well as craft resources, with an Indigenous section due shortly. Park benches and seating is being installed in August 2020, as well as a laid track. There are also six new stone cairns with a verse on each from the late John Butler's poem, The River. Another cairn also marks the height of the 1998 flood.

Education
Swifts Creek P-12 School was formed from the merger of Swifts Creek Secondary College and Swifts Creek Primary School in 2010. The Tambo Campus is the Omeo region's only Secondary College, while the Flagstaff Campus is the town's Primary School. The town also has a separate Kindergarten. The school, in particular the Tambo Campus, caters to students from the surrounding towns of Ensay, Cassilis, Omeo, and Benambra, as well as Swifts Creek itself. The school has an enrolment of around 130 students making it amongst the smallest in the state.

Residents who wish to undertake tertiary education must either do so via distance education, or move away from the town. Students who finish Year 12 at the school usually move to nearby Bairnsdale for tertiary education facilities mainly in the TAFE sector, or to Melbourne or other cities, to attend university. Among alumni of Swift's P-12 school is the AFLW star Josie Gallagher.

Medical services
In October 2023, Omeo District Health announced that Swifts Creek would not have a General Practitioner, instead relying Bush Nurse service with an ambulance.

Facilities
The town's sporting facilities include a recreation reserve consisting of a football/cricket oval, netball courts, four tennis courts, a lawn bowls green, changing rooms, and club rooms.

The town also has a half-Olympic-length six-lane outdoor swimming pool located beside the school, and publicly accessible squash courts located within the grounds of the P-12 school's Tambo Campus. Around two kilometres north of town is the privately owned Tambo Valley Racecourse, where an annual Country Racing Victoria sanctioned picnic horse racing carnival is held on Easter Sunday each year, including the Swifts Creek Cup.

The town's public golf course, the Tambo Valley Golf Club, is located about thirteen kilometres north of town in the locality of Bindi.

Clubs

Despite its small population, Swifts Creek boasts a number of sporting clubs. The Swifts Creek Demons Australian Rules Football team has been in existence for over 100 years. They currently compete in the Omeo & District Football League (ODFL), and have won 25 premierships including several in recent years. The team wears a blue jumper with a red vee, the traditional strip of the Melbourne Football Club AFL team. The affiliated Swifts Creek Netball Club also has a long and successful history, and wears a blue top with red skirt. Both football and netball clubs also have junior teams.

The former Swifts Creek Tennis Club has competed in the Omeo District Tennis Association (ODTA) since the association's inception in 1955, and has won 28 premierships in that time, by far the most successful club in the competition. The lawn bowling club competes in local competition, the former cricket club takes part in regional competitions in irregular seasons, and the golf club is involved in regular tournaments.

Local schools also strongly support the development of youth sport, and regularly compete above their weight in interschool competition in swimming, athletics, and a wide variety of team sports.

Diving blocks

Local legend holds that the diving blocks currently in use at the Swifts Creek Pool were those used in the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games. Considerable weight is added to this story by careful comparison between these blocks and historical photos from the Olympics, such as this distant photo of a race showing the blocks front on, and especially this close-up photo of block four at a similar angle to that shown here (both historical photos are from the National Library of Australia collection).

It can be seen from the photos that the blocks in Swifts Creek are identical in size and structure to those used at the Melbourne Olympics, and would only have had to be repainted to account for the different colouration and style of the block numbers. Furthermore, the legend states that one of the missing blocks was given to Australian swimming icon Dawn Fraser as a souvenir of her success at the Games (there were eight blocks for the Olympics, but only six survive in Swifts Creek now). However, there has been an alternative local legend circulating how one diving block was stolen during the 1970s by some say a Bairnsdale boy by the name of Michael Weston accompanied by Daniel Redenbach and Tom Alvin during a local festival. Today the diving block is believed to be in Dunkeld buried by a local Dunkeld boy. Swifts Creek resident Tony Skelton is said to know the precise location of the Diving Block in Dunkeld. If this legend is correct, then Swifts Creek has an important piece of Australian sporting history in everyday use, but largely unknown to most of the population.

Toppola

Toppola is a brand of camper shell originally made for the Saab 99 combi coupé. By removing the hatch and putting on the Toppola a car could be converted to a campervan in about 15 to 30 minutes. The top can easily be lifted off and the hatch door reattached, so the car can be used without the Toppola. The unit is small, but features full standing height (2.0 m) and a 170 by 200 cm bed. It could be fitted with a complete kitchen and even a heater for use during winter. The total weight addition is about 115 kg.

The Toppola was first made for the Saab 99, but later also Saab 900, Saab 900 (NG), Saab 9000, Saab 9-3, Ford Sierra and Scorpio.

Production has stopped in 2006; SCANDO was looking for someone to take over production of the Toppola.

North Luzon Expressway

The North Luzon Expressway (NLEX),' signed as E1 of the Philippine expressway network, partially as N160 of the Philippine highway network, and partially as R-8 of the Metro Manila arterial road network,' is a controlled-access highway that connects Metro Manila to the provinces of the Central Luzon region in the Philippines. The expressway, which includes the main segment and its various spurs, has a total length of 101.8 km and travels from its northern terminus at Santa Ines Interchange to its southern terminus in Balintawak Interchange, which is adjacent to its connection to Skyway, an elevated toll road that connects the NLEX to its counterpart in the south, the South Luzon Expressway. The segment of the expressway between Santa Rita Exit in Guiguinto and the Balintawak Interchange in Quezon City is part of Asian Highway 26 of the Asian highway network. Despite that the name stating the word "North Luzon", the expressway only ends at Santa Ines Exit at Mabalacat, Pampanga which is located in Central Luzon.

The expressway also serves as a major utility corridor, carrying various high voltage overhead power lines through densely populated areas where acquisition and designation of right of way or power line alignment and lands for their associated structures is impractical. A notable power line using the expressway's right of way for most or part of the route is the Hermosa–Duhat–Balintawak transmission line where it utilizes the alignment or right of way of North Luzon Tollway (NLT) or NLEX Main from San Fernando Exit in San Fernando, Pampanga to Harbor Link Interchange in Valenzuela, Metro Manila, with the power line also represents how close a motorist does to Metro Manila if going southbound and San Fernando if northbound.

The North Luzon Expressway was built in the 1960s as part of the government's program to develop areas adjacent to Metro Manila, with NLEX serving the north. The expressway was originally controlled by the Philippine National Construction Corporation (PNCC), until the expressway's operations and maintenance was transferred on February 10, 2005, to the NLEX Corporation, a subsidiary of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation (a former subsidiary of Lopez Holdings Corporation until August 2008). The expressway was expanded and rehabilitated from 2003 to February 2005, modernizing the road and its facilities.

NLEX Main
The North Luzon Expressway's main segment, called the North Luzon Tollway (NLT) or NLEX Main, cuts northwards from Quezon City to the provinces in Central Luzon.

The expressway begins in Quezon City as a four lane road at the Balintawak Interchange with EDSA as a continuation of A. Bonifacio Avenue. The main segment spans 84 km, passing through Caloocan and Valenzuela in Metro Manila and the provinces of Bulacan and Pampanga in Central Luzon. It currently ends in Mabalacat. The NLEX runs parallel to the MacArthur Highway, which is officially known as the Manila North Road.

From Balintawak, the NLEX follows a straight north route, with sections lined by billboards. Two service roads run on either sides of the expressway from Balintawak to Barangay Lias, Marilao, albeit discontinuously and one service road on the west from Marilao Exit to Duhat, Bocaue. The N160 and Radial Road 8 concurrencies end in the city boundaries of Caloocan and Malabon, near the Eternal Gardens Memorial Park and just below Skyway and its Balintawak Exit and few meters south of the former site of Balintawak toll plaza that operated until 2005. The expressway then bends westward at Harbor Link Interchange in Valenzuela and in Tambubong Interchange in Bocaue, Bulacan. The following exit, Tabang, leads passengers to the Tabang Spur Road. The Tabang Spur Road is a four-lane, 3.36 km spur road in Bulacan that branches off NLEX Main at Tabang Exit in Balagtas and terminates at a partial cloverleaf interchange with MacArthur Highway and Cagayan Valley Road at Guiguinto Exit in Guiguinto. The spur road carried the final leg of the expressway until the present route was extended to Pampanga.

The expressway narrows to three lanes per direction past Tabang Exit. It continues on a straight route, traversing paddy fields on the outskirts of Guiguinto, Malolos, and Pulilan. The Asian Highway 26 (AH26) concurrency leaves NLEX at Santa Rita Exit, where it follows Maharlika Highway, also known as Cagayan Valley Road, towards Baliwag and Cagayan Valley. A few meters after Pulilan Exit is the Candaba Viaduct (officially known as Pulilan-Apalit Bridge). The bridge traverses rice paddies and swampland in the municipalities of Pulilan, Calumpit, Bulacan and Apalit, Pampanga, and crosses Apalit Bypass Road and Pampanga River before the viaduct ends. The expressway continues again on a straight alignment. After San Fernando Exit, the expressway narrows into two lanes per direction. It continues a mostly straight and gently winding route through the rural areas of Mexico, crossing Abacan and Quitangil rivers, and traversing the eastern parts of Angeles and Mabalacat. NLEX connects with Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway via Clark Spur Road before the main line terminates at Sta. Ines Interchange, with a toll plaza serving the exit.

NLEX Harbor Link
Collectively known as the North Luzon Expressway Harbor Link Project (NLEX Harbor Link Project), these series of expressways connect the North Luzon Expressway to various points in Metro Manila. It currently runs from Mindanao Avenue in Valenzuela to Radial Road 10 in Navotas, linking the North Luzon Expressway to the Port of Manila. Once completed, it will run from Katipunan Avenue, a component of Circumferential Road 5, in Quezon City at the east.

Planning and construction
The original stretch of the expressway, from Balintawak Interchange in Quezon City up to Guiguinto Exit in Bulacan, was completed on August 4, 1968. It is a fully fenced limited-access highway that consisted of a four-lane rural divided roadway, nine twin bridges, one railroad overpass, seven underpasses, and three interchanges.

Originally a project of the Department of Public Works and Highways, the completion of the major portion of the job fell on the Construction Development Corporation of the Philippines (CDCP, the precursor to PNCC) to pioneer the toll concept of funding infrastructure. It was carried out under the private financing scheme provided by Republic Act No. 3741.

Additional work required by the government included the construction of the Balintawak – Novaliches Interchange Complex, the Tabang Interchange, and the approach road of the underpasses. In 1976, the NLT extension, consisting of 50.9 km of concrete road, was built as part of a highways program of the International Bank for Reconstruction Development (World Bank) linking major urban centers to the production centers in the north. The project features a 4-lane limited-access highway with a 5 km Candaba Viaduct, a construction innovation utilizing precast beam system, 6 interchanges, 12 bridges, and overpass/underpass structures.

Between 1984 and 1989, under the administrations of Ferdinand Marcos and Corazon Aquino, the expressway was extended by another 5 km from its terminus at Dau Exit to Santa Ines Exit in Mabalacat, Pampanga, with a northbound lane from Dau Exit to the future connection to SCTEX had an asphalt overlay while the southbound lane was originally a concrete road before an asphalt overlay was added upon the expressway's rehabilitation.

Expansion and rehabilitation
On April 30, 1998, the MNTC was granted the concession for the expressway, manifested in a Supplementary Toll Operation Agreement (STOA). Under the STOA, the government confirmed the assignment by PNCC of its usufructuary rights, interest and privileges over the existing expressway, including all extensions, linkages and diversions in favor of MNTC. These concession rights authorized MNTC to construct, finance, manage, operate and maintain all the project roads and charge tolls thereon.

From February 2003 to February 2005, the expressway underwent a major rehabilitation. Works included the widening of the Balintawak–Tabang segment from 6 to 8 lanes and the Tabang–Sta. Rita segment from 4 to 6 lanes, asphalt overlay, and the demolition of old tollbooths. The main contractor of the rehabilitation work was Leighton Asia with Egis as the main subcontractor for the toll, telecommunication and traffic management systems. To help maintain the safety and quality of the expressway, various rules are in effect, such as restricting the left lane to passing vehicles only and banning overloaded trucks. On February 10, 2005, commercial operations began following the Toll Regulatory Board's issuance of the Toll Operation Permit. On the same day, the operation and maintenance of the expressway was transferred from the government-owned PNCC to the MNTC, which would later become known as NLEX Corporation.

On February 12, 2007, the entire stretch of the expressway began another rehabilitation regarding its drainage systems. Within this period, certain lanes of the road were closed to the traffic. This in turn caused massive traffic jams along the road and the speed limit on the construction sites were reduced from 80 kph and 100 kph, respectively, to 60 kph. The program was finished on October 7, 2007.

Further extensions
Construction of NLEX Segment 8.1 (Mindanao Avenue Link), the first segment of the Harbor Link project, broke ground on April 2, 2009, with actual construction work beginning on April 21, 2009. Right-of-way for the road and interchange was then established throughout its construction where several houses were demolished. It was opened to the traffic on June 5, 2010. The spur road became part of the C-5 Road North Extension and is built to provide another entry point to the expressway from Metro Manila and decongest Balintawak Interchange.

On March 18, 2015, NLEX Segment 9 or the NLEX Karuhatan Link was opened, providing continuation to Segment 8.1 that runs from the other side of the Harbor Link Interchange to MacArthur Highway in Karuhatan, Valenzuela.

On February 28, 2019, the main stretch of NLEX Segment 10 or the NLEX Harbor Link, from Karuhatan to C-3 Road, was opened to traffic. On February 21, 2020, its C3–R10 Section was partially opened up to its Malabon exit ramp; the remaining section to Radial Road 10 was opened on June 15, 2020.

NLEX Segment 8.2, which would extend NLEX Segment 8.1 from Mindanao Avenue to Congressional Avenue, is also set to be constructed, but its construction was delayed due to right-of-way issues.

NLEX Connector
NLEX Connector is a 7.7 km elevated highway serving as a connector between NLEX and SLEX. Section 1 was opened to the public, while Section 2, which is 59.12% complete as of December 2023, was partially opened and is planned to be finished in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Proposed renaming
The main expressway has been a subject of some legislative measures for its proposed renaming. These were filed to commemorate to the historical significance and contributions of its intended namesakes, respectively. However, none has taken effect to date, as these await a counterpart measure from the Senate before it can be signed into law by the President of the Philippines.

On May 10, 2015, the House Committee on Public Works and Highways approved House Bill No. 4820 that seeks to rename the expressway to President Corazon C. Aquino Expressway (CAEX), in honor of former President Corazon Aquino, who was regarded as an icon of democracy. It was authored by Magnolia Rosa Antonino-Nadres, the then-representative from Nueva Ecija's 4th district.

On May 13, 2019, the House of Representatives passed on third and final reading the House Bill No. 8958 that seeks to rename the expressway to the Marcelo H. del Pilar Expressway (MHDPEX), in honor of Marcelo H. del Pilar, a revolutionary writer and patriot from Bulacan. The bill is principally authored by Jose Antonio Sy-Alvarado, the then-representative from Bulacan's 1st district.

Santa Ines extension
Currently, NLEX terminates at the Sta. Ines Exit in Mabalacat, Pampanga. Plans to continue the expressway beyond have been raised over the years, with the cooperation of DPWH, to extend the Sta. Ines Interchange towards Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway, also in Mabalacat.

NLEX Phase 3
NLEX Phase 3 would be a 40 km extension with three segments from NLEX Main, originally planned to be built from San Simon, Pampanga, to Dinalupihan, Bataan, connecting to the Subic Bay Freeport Zone via Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway. However, the plan was modified to instead start somewhere between Apalit and San Fernando in Pampanga, then cut across Guagua and end at Dinalupihan. Though the project will tentatively start from Apalit based on the concession, the new alignment has yet to be finalized.

Santo Tomas Interchange
On January 19, 2024, the NLEX Corporation announced its partnership with the Department of Public Works and Highways and the Toll Regulatory Board for the construction of a new interchange in Santo Tomas, Pampanga, as part of the Greater Pampanga Circumferential Road Masterplan. The interchange will connect the future Lubao–Guagua–Minalin–Santo Tomas Bypass Road and aims to alleviate congestion on Jose Abad Santos Avenue.

New Manila International Airport link
Pillars have been built on NLEX between its Balintawak toll plaza and Skyway Stage 3's Balintawak/NLEX off-ramp to accommodate a future toll road to New Manila International Airport in Bulakan, Bulacan. The future project, to be built by San Miguel Corporation, will expand the capacity of NLEX by adding new 4–5 lanes up to Marilao, which was selected for another toll road to the future airport. After the completion of this elevated toll road, NLEX will have 11–13 lanes total (3–4 lanes per direction on NLEX + 5 lanes on the elevated segment) from Balintawak Cloverleaf to Marilao, ultimately bypassing the NLEX's open section.

The toll road project, later known as the Northern Access Link Expressway (NALEX), was approved by the Toll Regulatory Board in June 2022. It would be 19 km long from Skyway Stage 3 to a roundabout in Meycauayan, near the airport. Another 117 km stretch would be built beyond the NMIA roundabout, ending at the southern end of the Tarlac–Pangasinan–La Union Expressway in Tarlac City. When completed, NALEX would be 136 km long. The NALEX project costs ₱148 billion and the first segment is targeted to be completed by 2026.

Tolls
The tollway has two sections: an open section and a closed section. The open section, which is between Bocaue Exit and Balintawak Toll Barrier and the entire NLEX Harbor Link, employs the use of a barrier toll system, which charges a flat toll based on vehicle class. It is employed to reduce the number of toll barriers (and associated bottlenecks) within Metro Manila. The closed section, which is from Bocaue Exit northwards and the northbound exit to Philippine Arena (south of Bocaue), is distance-based, charging based on the class of vehicle and distance traveled. The section south of Balintawak toll barrier is toll-free, especially to vehicles travelling between Quirino Highway and Balintawak Interchange.

When the expressway was modernized, an electronic toll collection system was set up for Class 1 vehicles while prepaid magnetic cards were assigned to Class 2 and 3 vehicles to speed up transactions at toll booths. These have since been replaced by a unified ETC system operated by Easytrip Services Corporation. In accordance with law, all toll rates include a 12% Value-Added Tax (VAT). With the movement of the northernmost toll gate to Sta. Ines, the NLEX and SCTEX toll systems have been merged into one combined system, with tolls for all enclosed destinations listed.

The toll rates, implemented since June 4, 2024, are as follows :

Emergency phones and parking bays
Emergency telephone boxes are located throughout the whole length of the expressway. Parking bays (lay-bys) are also placed on regular intervals on the expressway, for use in emergency situations.

Service areas
North Luzon Expressway has eleven service areas with 5 on both northbound and southbound of the main line, mostly located on the closed toll section north of Bocaue, and one on Tabang Spur Road. Each service station hosts a gas station, a convenience store, restrooms, car repair, and lubrication services. Except for Shell Tabang NLEX, these also have restaurants and ATMs, with some also providing ETC installation and reloading for Easytrip RFID users.

Exits
Exit numbers are based on kilometer post. Exits begin at 10 because the NLEX is a logical continuation of A. Bonifacio Avenue. Rizal Park in Manila is designated as Kilometer Zero.

In popular culture

 * The expressway was featured in the music video to the song "Toll Gate" by the band Hale.
 * It was also featured in the movie Sa North Diversion Road in 2005, based on Tony Perez's stage play of the same name. It was created by Dennis Marasigan.
 * From June 6–17, 2007, On North Diversion Road, the play written by Tony Perez, was performed at The Arts House, Singapore, by young & W!LD, an actor training division of Singapore's W!LD RICE Theatre.

Scout Electromedia

Scout Electromedia (originally Scout Electronics) was a late 1990s wireless consumer product company based in San Francisco. It was founded by Dan Bomze, William Cockayne, and Geoff Pitfield.

The company created the modo handheld wireless device which delivered up-to-the-minute entertainment information to urban youth in New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.

The product received high praise in a wide array of press from Playboy to the New York Times. It was venture backed by Flatiron Partners, TechFund, and idealab!. However, the backers ran into financial problems in the wake of the dot-com crash, and funding dried up, which resulted in the swift end of Scout. Ultimately the service ran for just two months in New York and San Francisco, with the company going out of business one day before the scheduled launch in Los Angeles.

The company's chief executive, Geoff Pitfield was fired on October 20, 2000. By the time it was wound up the company employed 84 people.

The term Mahommedan is old-fashioned and possibly derogitory, it should be changed.
 * No, it is not about fashion. If you have a better word, please suggest. Mahommedan is not derogatory, as it is also the name of the era.

Special Writing Style
Earlier Deeds and ledgers contain the specimens of the old denomination/writing styles for annas and paisas and takas and rupees. e.g. ||. meant Eigth annas or 50%. [help] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.200.239.60 (talk) 08:48, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

8 anna in every language

 * Sometimes, 50 Paise is colloquially referred to as 8 ānās (Atthanni in Hindi and Urdu, and Ettu ānā, pronounced "Enimidi ANaalu" in Telugu, "Ettna" in Tamil, Malayalam and Entu AaNe pronounced as "EntaNe" in Kannada) and 25 Paise as 4 ānās (Chawanni in Hindi and Urdu, and Naal ānā, pronounced "Naalna" in Tamil and Malayalam, and Naalku Aane pronounced as "Naalkane" in Kannada).

Are all these translations useful?

What does it mean that Ettu ānā is pronounced "Enimidi ANaalu" in Telugu? Is it written ettu ānā in any language? —Tamfang (talk) 18:45, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Secretary-General

Proposed move

 * this is a proposal to MERGE "Secretary-General", "General Secretary", and "First Secretary" (though some did not comment about the last, and the section title uses "move")

NOTICE The subject is currently a topic of the discussion in Wikipedia talk:Disambiguation pages with links. - üser:Altenmann >t 15:51, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Support merge. "Secretary-General", "General Secretary", and "First Secretary" are synonyms.  Different organizations prefer one form or the other, but there's no consistent distinction between the types of organizations using each term, nor between the duties of the office holder.  Some political parties are headed by a General Secretary, others by a Secretary-General; some international organizations are headed by a Secretary-General, others by a General Secretary.  Having separate articles here would be like having separate articles for "Minister of Foreign Affairs" and "Foreign Affairs Minister". —Psychonaut (talk) 09:34, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I believe it may be a good idea to merge the two together and avoid unnecessary confusion. And with some new explanatory information of differences etc it should work out fine, I think.--Bemland (talk) 05:52, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Support merge. The article has no sources and focuses on communist usage, even though I have noticed several non-communist groups (such as RPF) using the term. Bataaf van Oranje (talk) 16:09, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
 * partial support. In many cases these are translations from other languages and the pick seems random, and often interchangeable. For example Leonid Brezhnev used to be called "General Secretary", "Secretary-General" and "Secretary General". On the other hand, "First Secretary" is a simply different word, and not always, "first secretary" is the boss. So all this becomes a mess.
 * Therefore I would suggest to simply make two disambig pages, for the following reasons:
 * The narrative is weak, unreferenced, or none
 * The actual functions vary wildly
 * In some cases the titles S-G and GS are interchangeable and in some they are not.
 * Not all people can "split the hair", especially referring to foreign titles.
 * During merging, I would also trim mercilessly the portrait gallery.
 * If someone manages to write a meaningful article, with the history of the title, and such (similar to e.g., "Chairman"), we can always make it "main" page, accompanied with "Secretary-General (disambiguation)".
 * - üser:Altenmann >t 03:34, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Merging General Secretary with Secretary-General is not a good idea. The Secretary-General of the United Nations nor the Secretary-General of the Commonwealth of Nations are not called General Secretary. The Secretary-General of the United Nations and the Commonwealth of Nations are the Chief Administrative Officers of their respective organizations, as is the Secretary-General of NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization). --Commonwealth Historian 03:21, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
 * A merged page would list "Secretary-General of the United Nations" as an example, among others of all three wordings (First Secretaries also), without proposing that "General Secretary of the United Nations" is a valid term. -- do ncr  am  16:12, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

 * The UK monarch is not the ex-officio Head of the Commonwealth, rather it is a title that Queen Elizabeth II holds personally. So theoretically, however unlikely, the next UK monarch is not necessarily going to assume this role. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.239.239.148 (talk • contribs) 22:26, 3 July 2013
 * Re: "holds personally". Interesting. Where in wikipedia can I read about this in more detail? - üser:Altenmann >t 15:53, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Support merge. A "Secretary" (in this context) is a holder of a ministerial portfolio; "General", whether before or after, indicates that the ministerial officer in this case does not hold a specific portfolio such as the treasury or defense or education, but holds the general portfolio, i.e. authority over all of the other portfolios. bd2412  T 16:08, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Support merge of all three (including First Secretary). The fact that there is variation in usage ( notes a "First Secretary" is not always the boss) does not pose any problem.  Examples of a First Secretary (or General Secretary) as the top person of an organization should be given, and contrasted with examples where First Secretary (or General Secretary) is known to have a lower role.  And organizations where it is not known whether the First Secretary (or General Secretary) is the overall boss for all or some matters can be listed too.  To clarify these possibilities is all the more reason to have a treatment in one page, I think.  The merger can be done without having everything clarified in its first version. -- do  ncr  am  16:12, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Anyong Rhythm! Thank you for putting interlanguage links. I have one request though. It is good if you put an edit summary when you modify an article. Since you mostly put links to Korean pages, that summary could be as simple as "+ko". Also, since it is a minor edit, it would be nice if you check the minor edit button. All this is very helpful for other people having a given article on the watchlist.

Gordon Parker (psychiatrist)

Gordon Barraclough Parker AO is an Australian psychiatrist who is scientia professor of psychiatry at the University of New South Wales (UNSW).

Parker’s particular focus is on the phenomenology and epidemiology of mood disorders, social psychiatry, and the treatment (both psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy) and management of mood disorders. His research has assisted in modelling psychiatric conditions – depression, bipolar and personality disorders – and examining causes, mechanisms and treatments for mood disorders, together with innovative clinical work. Parker is a critic of the current unitary classification of major depressive disorder (as represented in the DSM-5), and has proposed the revival of the diagnosis of melancholia. In 2010 he was made an officer of the Order of Australia in recognition of his distinguished service to psychiatry as a clinician and researcher, particularly as a major contributor to the understanding and innovative treatment of mood disorders and as founder and Executive Director of the Black Dog Institute.

Early life and education
Parker was born in Melbourne, schooled at Shore in Sydney, completed an MB BS at the University of Sydney (USyd), and an MD (1978), PhD (1983) and DSc (1997) at the University of New South Wales (UNSW). He is married, with four children. His path to Medicine and his clinical rationale is outlined in his autobiography, "A Piece of My Mind".

Career
Parker was Head of the School of Psychiatry at the University of NSW from 1983-2002, as well as Director of the Division of Psychiatry at Prince of Wales and Prince Henry Hospitals in Sydney from 1983 to 1996. In 2002, he became the founder and inaugural Director of the Black Dog Institute, an organisation that focuses on research into and treatment of mood disorders, in particular clinical depression and bipolar disorder.

As a consequence of his advocacy for diagnosing melancholia, in 2010 Parker was invited to head a group of prominent international psychiatrists to argue for its separate status in the new DSM-5 classificatory system.

Parker has been a member of the Editorial Boards of 16 journals, and was the invited Editor of the December 2015 issue of Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica. He is an invited assessor for various National Health and Medical Research (NHMRC) Grants as well as for scientific journals, for example, The Lancet and The American Journal of Psychiatry. He has been involved with the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) – as Editor of the Journal (1979–88) and Chair of the Quality Assurance Committee (1990–95).

Parker has also held a number of positions with legal organisations, including the NSW Guardianship Board (1990–95) and the NSW Administrative Appeals Tribunal (1991–92). He has sought to make the community more aware of depressive sub-types (especially melancholia) and the bipolar conditions (especially bipolar II disorder) via multiple TV, radio and print interviews and personalised programs (for instance, two ABC Australian Story programs detailing nuances of bipolar II disorder).

During his time at the Black Dog Institute, Parker ‘translated’ research findings via educational programs – some with health professionals in mind and some shaped for the general community. Parker has also developed or evaluated a number of assessment and self-assessment tools to help practitioners and individuals to gauge the type and clinical import of a mood disorder.

Awards and recognition
In 2004, Parker received a Citation Laureate from the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) as the Australian Scientist most highly cited in the field of “Psychiatry/Psychology”. His citations exceed 35,000.

In 2008, Parker received a Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission award for his book: “Journeys with the Black Dog”, and in 2010 his book “Tackling Depression at Work” was short-listed for a further Australian Human Rights Commission award.

In 2017, Parker was awarded the James Cook Medal of the Royal Society of New South Wales for "Outstanding contributions to both science and human welfare in and for the Southern Hemisphere".

Lifetime awards include the RANZCP Senior Psychiatric Research Award (twice), Australasian Society of Psychiatric Research Founders Award, NSW Forensic Psychology Award, UNSW Alumni Award for Science and Technology, Suicide Prevention Lifetime Research Award, and Officer of the Order of Australia in 2010.

The University of NSW awards Scientia Professor status for those academics who have demonstrated "outstanding research performance." Parker was the first clinical academic to be awarded such status in 2000, for a five-year period, and subsequently for three further periods up until 2018.

Parker was a New South Wales finalist in the 2019 Australian of the Year Awards, in the category of Senior Australian of the Year.

Publications: academic and non-academic
Parker has published more than 900 papers, over 600 in peer-reviewed journals; 70 book chapters; and written or edited 18 books. A complete list is available at the UNSW Faculty of Medicine website, Professor Gordon Barraclough Parker publications:

Non-academic output
Parker has worked as a creative writer – writing for The Mavis Bramston Show, a cartoonist for Oz magazine and The Bulletin, and a book reviewer for major Australian newspapers. He was an ABC Science broadcaster in Sydney and in London. His play, Personality Games, was staged in 2004 at The Wharf Theatre in Sydney and La Mama's Carlton Courthouse in Melbourne.
