GG45

GG45 (GigaGate 45) and ARJ45 (Augmented RJ45) are two related connectors for Category 7, Category 7A, and Category 8 telecommunication cabling. The GG45 interface and related implementations are developed and sold by Nexans S.A., while the ARJ45 interface and related implementations are developed and sold by Bel Fuse Inc. The electrical performance of each is compliant with IEC 61076-3-110, as published by the International Electrotechnical Commission. Furthermore, the ARJ45 connector meets the mechanical dimensions specified in IEC 61076-3-110.

Details
The GG45 and ARJ45 connectors operate in the frequency band between 600 MHz and 5 GHz with shielded twisted pair and twinax cables. To reduce crosstalk, two of the four pairs have been moved so that each pair occupies one corner.

GG45 is a variant of ARJ45 that allows for cables terminated with male 8P8C (AKA RJ45) connectors to be plugged into GG45 jacks. However, GG45 cables cannot plug into 8P8C jacks as a protrusion on the socket is designed to activate a switch on the jack for the alternative contact positions.

Combined with an internal system of Faraday cages, the GG45 interface therefore has plenty of headroom, plus the ability to migrate to higher speed service by upgrading to Category 7A patch cords that activate the switch in the jack.

There are two main variants of GG45/ARJ45:
 * GG45 or ARJ45 HD is the full connector with 12 contacts, providing a Category 6 cable interface (100/250 MHz) for older devices as well as the new interface.
 * ARJ45 HS is the version without the Cat-6–compatible contacts, for a total of 8 contacts.

List of Atlanta Thrashers head coaches

The Atlanta Thrashers were an American professional ice hockey team based in Atlanta, Georgia. They played in the Southeast Division of the Eastern Conference in the National Hockey League (NHL) for its entire history. They moved to Winnipeg, Manitoba in 2011 and became the 2nd Incarnation of the Winnipeg Jets. The team joined the NHL in 1999 as an expansion team. The Thrashers played their home games at the Philips Arena since their inaugural season. The Thrashers were owned by Atlanta Spirit, LLC, and Rick Dudley was their general manager.

There were five Thrashers head coaches during their existence. The team's first head coach was Curt Fraser, who coached for three seasons. Bob Hartley is the franchise's all-time leader for the most regular-season games coached (291), the most regular-season game wins (136), the most regular-season points (309), and the only Thrashers head coach to coach any post-season games (4). All of the Thrashers head coaches except for Hartley have spent their entire NHL head coaching careers with the Thrashers. John Anderson was the head coach of the Thrashers from 2008 to 2010. Craig Ramsay was the last the head coach of the Thrashers.

Nevada State Route 163

State Route 163 (SR 163), often referred to as the Laughlin Highway, is a state highway in southern Clark County, Nevada. The route connects the town of Laughlin to the rest of the state via U.S. Route 95 (US 95).

SR 163 and Arizona State Route 95 provide the next closest public Colorado River crossing to Hoover Dam. Due to the restriction of commercial vehicles over the dam following the September 11 attacks, SR 163 comprised part of the required detour for truck traffic traveling between the Las Vegas and Phoenix metropolitan areas until October 2010, when the Mike O'Callaghan – Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge just downstream from the dam was opened to traffic.

Prior to the renumbering of Nevada state routes in the late 1970s, SR 163 previously comprised the northern part of State Route 76 and all of State Route 77.

Route description
State Route 163 begins as a four-lane divided highway at its junction with US 95 just north of the California state line. From there, the highway negotiates some fairly steep mountain grades as it loses elevation heading east toward Laughlin. Just outside Laughlin, the divided highway comes together and intersects Casino Drive before crossing the Colorado River and entering Bullhead City, Arizona on Arizona State Route 95.

History
State Route 77 first appeared on Nevada state maps in 1942 as an unimproved road. At that time, SR 77 had an eastern terminus near the Bulls Head Dam (later Davis Dam) site and a western terminus at former State Route 76 (now an unnumbered road), which connected to US 95 north of the current US 95/SR 163 junction. By 1947, the west end of SR 76 was realigned and paved; along with a paved SR 77, this new pavement would eventually form the majority of SR 163. As of 1973, the southern part of SR 76 was removed from the state highway system and SR 77 was extended to US 95 along the paved alignment of the former SR 76.

In 1976, Nevada's highway department began a project to renumber the state highway system. SR 77 was reassigned to State Route 163 during this process; this change was reflected on official state maps in 1978.

Article statement that Leigh is a member of LGBTQ community removed
The claim that Leigh came out as a member of the LGBTQ community is based on an extremely ambiguous statement by Leigh where she never actually says that she identifies as gay, transgender, etc., only that the dialogue resonated with her, without saying exactly how, and could be construed in any number of ways about a personal journey. Any mention of this statement in the article should say that the statement has been interpreted by certain media outlets as a coming out statement, to more accurately reflect it.

"When I was told that my character was to come out in season 2, a flurry of thoughts and emotions flew through and around me because of the responsibility I personally felt to authentically represent Alex’s journey. What I didn’t realize was how the scene where she finally confessed her truth would leap off the pages of the script and genuinely become a variation of my own. IRL. My heart felt like it was going to beat out of my chest each take we filmed, every time presenting another opportunity to get those honest words out of my mouth. Though they don’t exactly match my personal dialogue, the heart behind it surely did. From the director, the press, the media, the cast, and the fans, I’m still told that it was the most realistic coming out scene they’d ever witnessed. And to steal from Alex’s words, that’s because there’s some truth to what she said about me.

"Here’s the kicker though. Since that episode aired, I was told from dear friends (and even avid watchers of Supergirl) that they would no longer watch the show because of the fact that Alex’s journey took a turn from their less than acceptable beliefs. Soon after, they began to distance themselves and eventually my family and I were outcast, marking the loss of many folks we loved. However, after the initial sting, I don’t hold a grudge towards the negative response, because as I said, we all have had a hard time in one way or another with acceptance (whatever the subject may be) whether towards ourselves or others.

"It’s been a long and lonely road for both my husband and myself but I can whole-heartedly say that after all these years, he and I are still discovering the depths of ourselves and each other, but throughout our journey we’ve learned to be proud of who we are, no matter the cost." 2600:1700:12C8:10:416E:9B16:8288:4164 (talk) 03:34, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Redeleted after good faith reversion of my deletion by IJBall. Biographies of Living Persons policy, which applies here, says "unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion," so it seems policy actually dictates the comment be removed until we get consensus, so I am going to go ahead and remove it again.

Related discussion
You reverted my edit on Chyler Leigh, saying to let the Talk Page discussion play out, citing WP:STATUSQUO, which is only an essay, not one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, and therefore would not carry the same weight as an actual guideline like WP:BOLD, correct? I've been Bold, and I've Discussed, so I've already started the Bold, Revert, Discuss cycle, so I think since you were aware of the discussion being initiated at the time of your revert, reverting without contributing to the discussion was not exactly conducive to keeping the BRD cycle going. So, I can wait 24 hours past your undiscussed revert to avoid appearance of an edit war, but then if no one else contributes to the discussion, I'm going to redelete - or you could talk with me about it on the talk page now. 2600:1700:12C8:10:A9CD:2601:E29B:9D18 (talk) 17:47, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm looking for other comments on your changes, to see if they have consensus. If no one comments in the next few days, then you can likely re-remove that section, on the assumption that no one objects. I would wait more than 24 hours though. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 18:36, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I'll think about more neutral wording that reports that certain outlets are interpreting Leigh's statement as a "coming out", which I think is a pretty reasonable compromise, but I just refreshed my memory on Biographies of Living Persons policy, which applies here, and which says "unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion," it seems policy actually dictates the comment be removed until we get consensus, so I am going to go ahead and remove it again.

 * Not exactly – The Advocate (LGBT magazine) would certainly be considered a WP:RS by most of the community. Thus, the only justification for removing that is either a WP:UNDUE argument, or a WP:SYNTH argument. I gather you are making the latter argument. I have no opinion on that, but I want to make sure other editors don't object first. Rewording the section would likely be the best call. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 19:21, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay, I added revised text that states sources like the Advocate interpreted her statement as a coming-out, which I believe is more compliant with the spirit of WP:NPOV than stating their interpretation as fact like the previous text did. I think this is a pretty fair compromise, and added citations of multiple sources, including the Advocate to avoid appearance of WP:WEASEL or anything like that. Will try to get around to cleaning up the citation formatting when I have the time.2600:1700:12C8:10:A9CD:2601:E29B:9D18 (talk) 19:43, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Equivalent National Tertiary Entrance Rank

Untitled
I do not know alot about how the ENTER is calculated from different states' assessment programs but I do know that Victoria's ENTER and NSW UAI are not, in all respects, the same. For instance the maximum score for Victoria's ENTER is 99.95 whereas the maximum UAI is 100. This means either that the interpretation of students ENTER's is different in different states or that the Victorian score or the NSW score must undergo some sort of moderation. Perhaps this can be cleared up in discussion and then incorporated in the article.

Orizon 06:20, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

It is only called ENTER in Victoria. In South Australia and the Northern Territory it is just called TER. I think it is called TER in Western Australian and Tasmania too. New South Wales and the ACT call it UAI and Queensland uses a different system. In theory the TER scores can be compared across states but it seems very Victoria-centric to call the article by the Victorian name. Troyac 09:55, 25 July 2005 (UTC)

The link I've added - Description of the scaling process - is one to my own site with details of the scaling process (and a crude calculator) that was the result of a lot of messing around while procrastinating for exams back in Year 12. But if someone finds the link inappropriate or knows of a better site, feel free to remove/replace the link. :) invincible 14:31, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

In Victoria it was called TER up until at least 1997 (I know because I have a TER not an ENTER ;) I think the article should somehow note this. spacehunt

Selection Rank
The article states that in Queensland we use a different system called "Overall Position (OP)". This is not entirely correct. Students do not have to take the Queensland Core Skills Test and receive an OP. If they don't they receive a selection rank which I thought was comparable to the ENTER however I'm not sure. Perhaps someone that knows a little more could correct this point. --Spuzzdawg (talk) 01:51, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Recently the ENTER score was changed to ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admission Rank) so im changing the name. sources 121.214.30.220 (talk) 08:26, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Suncor Energy Centre

The Suncor Energy Centre, formerly the Petro-Canada Centre, is a 181,000 m2 project composed of two granite and reflective glass-clad office towers of 32 floors and 52 floors, in the office core of downtown Calgary, Alberta. The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat lists the west tower (215 m as measured to top of the structure), as the 23rd tallest building in Canada and the 6th tallest skyscraper outside of Toronto,. The west tower overtook the Calgary Tower as the tallest free-standing structure in Calgary from its completion in 1984, until being surpassed by the neighbouring Bow in 2010. The office towers encompass 158,000 m2 of rentable office space with the complex also containing 23,000 m2 of retail and underground parking area. A glass-enclosed walkway (part of the +15 System) provides shelter and easy access to the surrounding buildings.

The building was often called Red Square in its early years, a derisive reference to its primary occupant Petro-Canada, which was a federal Crown Corporation created under Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau's National Energy Program. Following the completion of the complex in 1984, one writer for the Calgary Herald described the buildings as "a twin-towered, $200-million monument to socialism", and later Premier Peter Lougheed would blame Petro-Canada and the two towers for the collapse of the Calgary real-estate boom, in part by flooding the market. Petro-Canada was privatized in 1991 under the Brian Mulroney government and acquired in 2009 by the complex's current namesake, Suncor Energy, which continues to operate the company as a subsidiary.

History
Planning for the complex began in the late-1970s following the creation of Petro-Canada. Petro-Canada came to an agreement with the West German firm ARCI Inc. to jointly develop an ARCI-owned site in Calgary to host the Crown Corporation's new headquarters. ARCI Inc served as an investment corporation, which had purchased the site several years early, and continues to be owned by the German House of Arenberg. In May 1980, a $200-million design was proposed with an all-glass, three-tower design including a 25-storey tower to be completed in 1982 and a larger 50-storey tower completed later in 1983. The Calgary Planning Commission rejected the proposal in Fall 1980 as the site was not large enough for the density three towers would provide, and the all-glass design was not desirable for the city. Subsequently, Petro-Canada purchased the air rights from the neighbouring Calgary Chamber of Commerce for $2.5 million and received approval for a granite-clad two-tower design with a density bonus option of four storeys on the smaller tower.

Construction on the complex began on April 2, 1982. During construction, local controversy arose when no Canadian bids were received to supply the site with exterior granite cladding, which resulted in the use of $500,000 of Finnish granite, which was cut and polished in Italy and shipped to the Calgary site for installation. Another local controversy was the installation of bilingual signage (French and English), which Petro-Canada head office insisted upon. On January 4, 1983, the West tower reached 191 metres in height, exceeding the Calgary Tower and becoming the tallest freestanding structure in Calgary and Western Canada. The 52-storey west tower was topped off on May 26, 1983, and the complex was completed in 1984.

During construction in April 1983, one of the site's tower cranes collapsed, killing its operator.

In December 1998, Petro-Canada sold their remaining half interest in the complex to Gentra Inc. (former subsidiary of Brookfield Properties) for $200 million (equivalent to $ million in ), which included Petro-Canada signing a 15-year lease to remain in the towers.

Major tenants
Major tenants of the Suncor Energy Centre include Suncor Energy Inc., Precision Drilling Corporation, Taqa North, Crescent Point Energy, Enbridge, Direct Energy, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Weatherford Canada.

1891 North-West Territories general election

The 1891 North-West Territories general election was held on 7 November 1891 to elect 25 members of the Legislative Assembly of the North-West Territories, Canada. It was the second general election in the History of the North-West Territories. The legislature for the first time had no appointed members. It had 25 elected members, four more than in the 1888 election. The assembly had grown by one member -- the three appointed "at large" legal advisors who had sat in the assembly previously were no longer there.

Frederick W. A. G. Haultain, the member for Macleod, was the government leader.

The key issue in this election was the French language question. Politicians had spent the previous three years divided on the issues of eliminating the status of the French language as an official language of the territory, and of assimilation of the French-speaking population. The appointed government made French an official language in Section 11 of the North-West Territories Act of 1877 that gained Royal Assent 28 April 1877. Prior to that, French was an official language while the North-West Territories was administered under the Manitoba Act from 1870 to 1875.

The issue was ignited by Lieutenant Governor Joseph Royal reading the Speech from the Throne in French on 31 October 1888. The outcry caused Royal to read his second throne speech in English only. On 28 October 1889, the issue was made dormant when a Record Division was taken on the "Language Resolution", a motion that stated the assembly did not need official recognition of languages. The vote was 17 for 2 against. But this did not last, because the federal government got involved, and warned the Lieutenant Governor Royal to start making speeches in French again, and tried to legislate official bilingualism back in the territory, through the House of Commons of Canada. The bill was defeated on second reading, however.

The interference by the Government of Canada resulted in members being elected to the assembly who favoured English as the only official language. On 19 January 1892 Haultain made a motion that only English would be used in the Assembly. The motion passed on division: 20 for, 4 against.

Electoral system
Most of the members were elected in single-member districts through First past the post.

In Calgary two members were elected, through Block Voting (although in this instance they were elected by acclamation).

Election results
The turnout can not be established as no voters lists were in use.

Members were elected on non-partisan basis but decisions were decided by majority vote in the chamber.

Note: No vote returns, are currently available from the Batoche, St. Albert and Souris districts

Results by riding
Members elected to the 2nd North-West Legislative Assembly. For complete electoral history, see individual districts

Western School Corporation

Western School Corporation is a public school district which serves Russiaville, Alto, New London, West Middleton, and southwestern Kokomo in Howard County, Indiana. The district spans the Howard County townships of Harrison, Honey Creek and Monroe, and the school buildings themselves straddle Harrison and Monroe.

WSC's high school gained national attention in the mid-1980s. When one of the students at the junior high, a hemophiliac Ryan White had been diagnosed with AIDS and recovering from an opportunistic infection (viral pneumonia), the school decided that White was ineligible to attend school out of fear the disease could spread. White was forced to take many of his eighth grade classes by speakerphone until a prolonged court battle overturned Western School Corporation's decision.

Talk:Allied health

The definition of allied health professional here is not in keeping with use of the word in much of the English-speaking world. It requires review. --Daveb 06:28, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Proposed merge
I notice a proposal to merge this with Health professional has been posted.

Allied health is a distinct subset of the health sector with its own set of issues. The term is used to distinguish clinical professions other than medicine and nursing professions.

Whilst this article needs some serious help (for a start, many of the "professions" listed as being within "allied health" are not really allied health professions at all, but rather ancillary services or technicians), I feel it should remain separate from Health professional unless people also feel Medicine and Nursing should be merged.

Cheers, --Daveb 02:49, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

 * The articles for Medicine and Nursing clearly cover two different topics, but the articles for Allied health and Health professional/Health profession currently do not. If there is information that could be added to either or both to warrant the split, please do add it. Right now, there isn't a sufficient distinction showing that an allied health professional is not a health professional.
 * If this article is kept separate, I'm also wondering if it should be renamed Allied health profession. The current article is entitled Allied health but there is no definition for "allied health". Edwardian 04:12, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Yes, this article does not currently address to topic of allied health and needs work. The article should explore the topic of allied health just as the articles on the other two major divisions of healthcare — nursing and medicine — explore those areas. I will attempt to rework this article in the coming weeks to bring it up to standard (something I have been meaning to do for a while since I came across this article).
 * I suggest leaving the title as it is, as there is a distinction between the area and those that work in it. Just as there is the article Medicine and then separate articles on the professionals that work in the field (ditto for Nursing, Nurse, etc) there should be an article on the broader topic of allied health.
 * Cheers, --Daveb 05:31, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

 * FYI, there is an article entitled Allied health professions so I've changed the merge header. (I realize you still don't agree with it.) Edwardian 21:18, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

 * Since there is an appropriate article to merge with, I am willing to do the merging. If I don't get any response within a day or two, I'll do it. -- Fyslee 19:36, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Nightscream

Nightscream
removed with (0/13/0) on 13 July 2005; original end 06:29 19 July 2005 (UTC)

Hi. I'm a voracious reader, a good writer with good language and writing skills, and I really like Wikipedia and its mission. I discovered it less than a year ago, and have contributed to it many times, sometimes just minor edits for wording and/or conforming to a NPOV, and sometimes more lengthy pieces. I'm a moderator of the Politics, Legal Musings, and Friends boards at a message board website, and I think I'd make a good Wikipedia administrator. Still, it's hard to figure out how to go about this, even from reading pages like this (this page says to read the qualifications, for example, but I couldn't find a list of them). Is there anything I should do to go about this process? I'd appreciate any advice on the matter. Thanks.

 * Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

Support

Oppose
 * 1) Oppose. User has demonstrated a great deal of difficulty in following instructions. --Carnildo 06:44, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose. No excuse for self-noms not answering the questions. Other than that, relatively no edits and no major contributions. The fact that you need to cite adminship at a message board screams, "Come back in six months." Harro5 08:01, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose. To cut it short: user has yet to answer the candidate questions, has only very few edits outside of the,  and   namespaces, and does not sufficiently use the edit summary box. Seeaxid 08:17, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose. People above me said it best. gkhan 08:46, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
 * 5) Oppose. User has a commendable dedication to the project, but needs more experience.  -- M e r o v i n g i a n  (t) (c) 09:08, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
 * 6) Oppose. Maybe later. As it says at the top of the page Most new admins have at least three months of participation and 1000 edits. 209 is way too few. And none of those edits are to Wikipedia-space pages, so there's very little interaction with the community so far (vital for an admin). Continue the good work and you'll probably end up an admin. But not just yet. As to what to do to become a more likely candidate - get involved! Join a WikiProject. Add your voice to the votes on vfd, cfd, tfd, sfd. Try to help out newbies on the Village Pump. The moreyou interact with the community, the more likely we'll all be able to tell how good an admin you'd be. Grutness...  wha?  10:07, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 7) Oppose, sorry. User is too new (if well intentioned), and failure to follow the proper procedures just adds weight to this. --Deathphoenix 13:59, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 8) Oppose. 4 months is lots of time. 209 edits, on the other hand, don't showcase your talents enough. Also, not answering the candidate questions shows a lack of understanding of Wikipedia. --Scimitar 15:02, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 9) Oppose. Please take your time to answer the candidacy questions first. It is an important criteria before anyone considers any support for you. - Mailer Diablo 15:41, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 10) Oppose, for reasons already noted.  -- JamesTeterenko 19:00, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 11) Oppose I am normally against using edits or time for use as a qualifier in RFA's but I think that 4 months ans 209 are a little low, I would also be interested in seeing you answer the questions so that we know what you like editing and what you are planning on using the extra tools for. Jtkiefer 23:42, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
 * 12) Oppose, not enough edits. Try again after about 1000 edits total and a couple hundred in the WP: namespace. --Idont Havaname 00:51, 13 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 13) Weak oppose. I generally don't look at edit counts at all when deciding on an admin vote, so much as frequency and quality. The nom performs well in both senses, but there's simply not enough for me to judge what his general attitudes/philosophies are, and without the candidacy question answers, I really can't say I know enough about the nom to be able to support him in clear conscience. Will consider changing my vote if answers are provided for said questions (no promises, though). – Seancdaug 05:08, July 13, 2005 (UTC)`

Neutral
 * 1) Oppose.  How is the community going to trust you with only four months of edits?  You're not even halfway to my expected nine-month threshold.  Denelson83  09:35, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 2) *Denelson83, while your personal standards are your own choice to make, the community has shown trust enough in plenty of people with "only" four months of edits to grant them adminship, even recently. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 10:53, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * 3) **Okay. I appreciate you letting me know that, so I shall change my vote to neutral.  Denelson83  22:26, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Comments
 * For the record I moved the canidate's administration request statement into the proper template layout and did the required template work to make this a proper vfd RFA. Jtkiefer 06:44, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
 * Vfd? Freudian slip I assume. Hmm, what could you have been thinking about :P gkhan 08:46, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
 * You'll have to ask Freud about that one but yeah, a slipup caused by haste. Jtkiefer 23:34, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

 * User has a total of 209 edits, full results via Kate's Tool can be found here

Talk:Superfrog

How many colors did Superfrog use?
I would like to know.--TheGreatGiannaSisters 16:31, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Most Amiga games of the time were using either 32 or 64, most likely it'd be the latter. Squirminator2k 14:00, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
 * In non-AGA (Amiga 600, 500, 1000, 2000 and 3000, and CDTV), 64 colours means that the second half of the palette (32) would be half-brightness versions of the first 32 colours. I have a feeling that "half-brite" mode was used rarely in games, although it is of course quite possible that Team 17 used it in SuperFrog and/or some of their other games, being a bunch of very ambitious people. --Peter Knutsen 14:41, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

From the article:
 * The Superfrog sound track can be found if you look. if interesed, askuser:Gabrielsimon for a copy, its public domain.

This belongs in the talk page, not in the article. — J I P | Talk 06:37, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Besides which, you can download the soundtrack from Dream17 anyway :) Squirminator2k 14:00, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Level codes
Wikipedia is not a cheat/code database. They are readily available on lots of sites, for examples here, here or here. The first site is linked in the article. startaq 11:58, July 16, 2005 (UTC)

information bout the game is also contained in these, so since thats true, its placed here. Gabrielsimon 15:41, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Wikibooks is the correct place for cheats/level codes, gaming guides etc. Only general game info should be in the wikipedia. Also see here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Computer_and_video_games. Please don't revert the changes again and join the discussion there instead if you don't agree. startaq 21:07, July 16, 2005 (UTC)

infromation is onformation, what your proposing is censorship. Gabrielsimon 23:39, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia is not a guide to how to play a game or how to cheat at a game. Its intention is to give a broad overview of the game. If you have questions about what sort of content is suitable for a computer and video game related article please look at WikiProject Computer and video games. Guides, cheats, etc are for Wikipedia's sister-project Wikibooks. More specifically see Wikibooks computer and video games bookshelf. K1Bond007 00:29, July 17, 2005 (UTC)

i see no problem adding these codes here, because if you wish to experiance the whole thing, and you find something hard to get past, its nice to be able to keep going. Gabrielsimon 00:31, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

 * If removal of non-encyclopedic information is censorship, then should we allow every spot-faced teenager to write an article about how k3wl sk1llZ they have in Quake XXVII? I tend to agree with User:Startaq here. But I still think we should add a link to the cheat codes, instead of the codes themselves.   — J I P | Talk 12:23, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

Assessment request
I am not granting any assessment further than Start for the moment. There are no reliable sources at all (the four in-line citations appear strongly dubious). Please try to source the article's facts and find reliable sources discussing its notability, and I'm sure this will be C-Class worthy in no time. :)  Salvidrim!   01:29, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

 * I'm not sure exactly how to go about doing that. I can add more sources, but what's more reliable as a source of information about a game than a fansite about it, links to game summaries, and reviews? Reviews are going to show bias, a fan site is a good source of information but will obviously have a slant, and game summaries - as written by the developers - will trying to be sell the product. I don't mean to be difficult, but what sort of source am I meant to add which isn't dubious? Pookiyama (talk) 17:38, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Have you given a good read to our page about reliable sources? A list of those specifically about video games already deemed reliable through discussion is also available at WP:VG/S. Reviews by reliable sites are excellent for estabilishing a game's notability, but not always best for fact-checking (though generally passable). Fansites are a big no-no, both for notability (for obvious reasons) and for fact-checking (as per all user- or fan-generated content with no expert editorial oversight). Game summaries written by the game's staff and that appear official in some way are excellent for fact-checking (gameplay elements, credits, plot, release information), but do not establish notability.  For development information, the best sources are often interviews with the game's staff.  A good start is to conduct a custom Google search in our established reliable sources; the results look substantial. :)   Salvidrim!   14:01, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

Triple Crown of Brazilian Football

The Triple Crown of Brazilian Football (Tríplice coroa do futebol brasileiro) is an unofficial title given to the club that won the three most important competitions of the Brazilian football in the same year: The Brazilian triple crown would involve the two major CBF competitions (Brazilian Championship and Copa do Brasil) and the state championship. In general, in Brazil the term "triple crown" is used to win any three official titles in the same season.

National
In 1964, Santos won the Taça Brasil, which was the Brazilian national football championship contested from 1959 to 1968, the Campeonato Paulista and the Torneio Rio-São Paulo, a traditional Brazilian football competition contested between São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro teams from 1933 to 1966, in 1993 and from 1997 to 2002. In 1993, Palmeiras won the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A the Campeonato Paulista and the Torneio Rio-São Paulo.

In 2003, Cruzeiro the three most important Brazilian competitions in 2003). In that year the Campeonato Mineiro (the state championship of the state of Minas Gerais) was contested in a single round robin format, and Cruzeiro, coached by Vanderlei Luxemburgo, won the competition without losing a single game. Also, Cruzeiro won the Copa do Brasil undefeated, beating Flamengo in the final of the tournament. The Série A was won with 31 wins, seven draws and eight defeats, totaling 100 points earned. The club scored 102 goals during the championship, and conceded 47. It was the first time that a Brazilian football club won the three most important championships in the same year: a state championship, the Brazilian Championship and the Copa do Brasil.

In 2021, Atlético Mineiro became the second Brazilian team to win the most important Triple Crown in Brazilian football by winning the three main national championships of the season, the Campeonato Mineiro, the Copa do Brasil (with the presence of clubs participating in the Copa Libertadores of the same year, and from 2001 to 2012 it was not possible to play both in the same season) and the Campeonato Brasileiro. However, he was unable to win the continental-level triple crown after being eliminated by Palmeiras in the Copa Libertadores.

International
In general, the Triple Crown does not require specific titles, so other Brazilian teams have also done the feat in history and won different championships. The Intercontinental Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup are of particular importance for Brazilian football, culturally considered as a single competition, so a Triple Crown, consisting of an international cup, the national championship and the most prestigious continental competition, the Copa Libertadores, is the highest honor that a Brazilian club can achieve at the international level.

Santos Futebol Clube won the three most important competitions for Brazilian clubs in 1962. In that year, it won the Campeonato Paulista, the Copa Libertadores da América and the Taça Brasil (in 2010, Taça Brasil was unified to the Campeonato Brasileiro). The team even won the 1962 Intercontinental Cup.

In 1963, Santos did not win the state championship, but won the Torneio Rio-São Paulo and the other 3 competitions won in the previous year.

In 1981, Flamengo won Carioca, Libertadores and Intercontinental Cup.

In 1992, São Paulo won Paulista, Libertadores and Intercontinental Cup. The following year, despite winning nothing statewide or nationally, he won four international titles: in addition to the last two, the Supercopa Libertadores and the Recopa Sul-Americana. In 2005, the São Paulo team would repeat the feat of 1992, but now winning the FIFA Club World Cup.

Flamengo's run in 2019 brought them three important trophies, although they were not all won on a domestic level: the state championship, Campeonato Carioca, the Campeonato Brasileiro, and the Copa Libertadores. Flamengo was only the second Brazilian club after Santos in 1962 to achieve this kind of Triple Crown. The following season, Palmeiras were crowned winners of the Campeonato Paulista, Copa do Brasil and Copa Libertadores.

Martha McCaughey

Martha McCaughey (born October 25, 1966) is an American academic and author. She was the director of Women's Studies at Appalachian State University at, prior to that, at Virginia Tech. Her research and writings have dealt extensively with evolutionary psychology as applied to gender. She is the author of The Caveman Mystique: Pop-Darwinism and the Debates over Sex, Violence, and Science (2008, Routledge), which takes an original perspective on the "science wars" and also challenges both evolutionary psychologists and their feminist critics to think about masculinities as textual.

Writings
Among McCaughey's writings are two similarly titled books: Real Knockouts: the Physical Feminism of Women’s Self-Defense (ISBN 0-8147-5577-1) in 1997 and Reel Knockouts: Violent Women in the Movies (ISBN 0-292-75251-2), which she co-edited in 2001 with Neal King.

Real Knockouts made McCaughey's mark in feminist theory, as the first comprehensive attempt to bridge the gap between academia and mainstream women's self-defense. In it, she defines the self-defense movement serves as a form of feminist empowerment and consciousness raising that can be used to make feminist theory accessible to women who would otherwise be unreceptive. She also proposes the idea that by participating in self-defense, women change the definition of femininity and alter the gender roles, both male and female, that support existing rape culture. Although McCaughey takes a generally positive stance regarding self-defense, and dedicates a chapter to countering various criticisms of women's self-defense from within feminist theory, she does acknowledge and examine several practical and legal concerns with self-defense. As part of that, she analyzes the legal repercussions of violent self-defense, including consideration of the way that racism, classism, sexism, and stereotypes concerning battered wife syndrome affect the legal system's judgement on whether or not a woman's self-defense is legitimate.

Reel Knockouts (co-edited with Neal M. King) is a collection of essays that examine portrayals of violent women in film.

She is also the co-editor, with Michael D. Ayers, of Cyberactivism: Online Activism in Theory and Practice (2003, Routledge), and the editor of Cyberactivism on the Participatory Web (2014, Routledge).

Most recently, McCaughey has written a number of essays on feminism, academic freedom, and the purpose of the university.

Chrodegang

Chrodegang (Chrodogangus; Chrodegang, Hruotgang; died 6 March 766 AD) was the Frankish Bishop of Metz from 742 or 748 until his death. He served as chancellor for his kinsman, Charles Martel. Chrodegang is claimed to be a progenitor of the Frankish dynasty of the Robertians. He is recognized as a saint in the Catholic Church.

Biography
He was born in the early eighth century at Hesbaye (Belgium, around the old Roman civitas of Tongeren) of a noble Frankish family, possibly the son of Sigramnus, Count of Hesbaye, and Landrada, daughter of Lambert II, Count of Hesbaye. Landrada was the sister of Rotrude of Hesbaye, Charles Martel's first wife.

He was educated first at the monastery of Saint-Trond, one of the oldest and most powerful abbeys in the Low Countries, and then at the cathedral school of Metz. At the court of Charles Martel, became his referendary, then chancellor, and in 737 prime minister. Sometime after 742, he was appointed to succeed Sigibald as Bishop of Metz, while still retaining his civil office.

In 753 he met and escorted Pope Stephen II when the pontiff visited France to seek help against Lombard incursions. As apostolic delegate to the Frankish kingdom, he was directly involved in the coronation of Pepin in 754 and the subsequent defeat of the Longbard king Aistulf. He accompanied the pope to Ponthieu.

After the death of Saint Boniface, Pope Stephen conferred the pallium on Saint Chrodegang (754–755), thus making him an archbishop, but not elevating the See of Metz. In 762, during a dangerous illness, he introduced among his priests a confraternity of prayer known as the League of Attigny. Chrodegang was well versed in Latin and the native early Old High German. He died at Metz on 6 March 766 and was buried in Gorze Abbey, the site of his principal shrine.

Reform
According to M.A. Claussen, "Chrodegang's work lay at the foundation of the Carolingian spiritual revival of later eighth and ninth centuries." In 748 he founded Gorze Abbey (near Metz). He also established St. Peter's Abbey on the Moselle, and did much for the abbeys of Gengenbach and Lorsch. For the latter he is said to have obtained the relics of Saint Nazarius, and for Gorze those of Saint Gorgonius. In his diocese he introduced the Roman Liturgy and musical chant, and also enriched community life for the canons of his cathedral.

Rule of Chrodegang
Around 755, he wrote a special rule for them, the Regula Canonicorum, later known as 'Rule of Chrodegang'. The rule, containing thirty-four chapters, was based on the Rule of St. Benedict. Its purpose, however, was principally pastoral: to encourage the mutual support of a community as found in a monastic setting, while recognizing the very different responsibilities of canons serving the spiritual needs of the faithful. Chrodegang necessarily adapted the Benedictine rule, particularly in regards to the hospitality characteristic of monasteries, and the care of the sick as there were neither guest houses nor hospices at cathedrals.

The rule was widely circulated and gave an important impulse to the spread of community life among the secular clergy. In 816, it was incorporated in part into the Institutio canonicorum Aquisgranensis established by the Council of Aachen. By the eleventh and twelfth centuries, the Rule of Chrodegang was gradually supplanted by more popular rules based on Augustine.

It seems probable that the Rule of Chrodegang was brought by Irish monks to their native land from the monasteries of north-eastern Gaul, and that Irish anchorites originally unfettered by the rules of the cloister bound themselves by it. The Rule of Céli Dé, which is preserved in the Leabhar Breac, and has been attributed to Máel Ruain, was possibly written in the 9th century by one of his community. The Rule "...is more a canonical than a monastic rule, and analogous to Chrodegang of Metz's Regula Canonicorum."

In the course of the 9th century mention is made of nine places in Ireland (including Armagh, Clonmacnoise, Clones, Devenish and Sligo) where communities of Culdees were established as a kind of annex to the regular monastic institutions. They seem especially to have had the care of the poor and the sick, and were interested in the musical part of worship.

Bad News Baseball

Bad News Baseball, originally released as Gekitō!! Stadium (激闘スタジアム) in Japan, is a baseball game released by Tecmo for the Japanese Family Computer in 1989, and North America in 1990 for the NES. The goal for players is to defeat every other team in the game. Gameplay can continue indefinitely until this occurs.

Gameplay

The main game mode in Bad News Baseball is the one-player mode. In this mode, the player's goal is to defeat every other team featured in the game in the order of their choosing in a round-robin style. Wins and losses are not recorded, and the player can continue playing indefinitely until all other teams are defeated. While this means that there is not a set schedule of games, pitchers do have a stamina rating that once depleted, will take several games' worth of rest to recover from.

On the initial screen, players can choose to play 1 or 2-player games, spectator mode (CPU vs. CPU), a 1 or 2-player All-Star game, or enter a password. Passwords are given out after every game and record what teams the player has beat, as well as the pitcher's stamina levels.

Functionally, the game plays similarly to R.B.I. Baseball, which is another baseball game that was released for the Family Computer in 1986 and the NES in 1988. There are some differences aimed at a younger audience like anthropomorphic rabbit umpires and kid-friendly animations for events such as home runs and close plays. In addition to this, players can become unconscious when they are forced out or knocked out by the ball. Similar in Nippon Professional Baseball (Japan's professional baseball league), the game will end in a tie after 12 innings.

As in real baseball, typical gameplay includes pinch hitters and pinch runners, stolen bases, four types of pitches and players with different attributes. The game features two leagues, the Ultra League and the Super League. These leagues are based on the National League and the American League of Major League Baseball respectively. Neither the Ultra nor the Super league use the designated hitter rule. At the end of the game, each team's game statistics are tracked and the score by innings is displayed.

Bad News Baseball has 12 teams, each with imaginary rosters. Each team's roster consists of 14 batters (8 starters and 6 reserves) as well as 6 pitchers (4 starters and 2 relievers, though starters could be used in a relief role and vice versa). The player is able to customize the lineup order and fielding positions, as well as choose their desired pitcher. Each player has different abilities based on their ratings, which are related, but not directly tied, to their presented statistics and the teams have different strengths and weaknesses. The teams themselves correspond loosely to actual Major League Baseball teams. For example, the Oakland team has green and yellow uniforms, much like the real-life Oakland Athletics. However, no actual team nicknames are used, and rosters have no resemblance to their MLB counterparts. The game also boasts all-star teams for each of the two leagues, which the player can modify.

The game also features the ability to play as girls. In girls mode, the teams remain the same, but the rosters are completely different, effectively creating 12 new teams. This feat is achieved by holding Down and Left on Controller 1, and holding Up on controller 2 (while still holding Down+Left) and hitting the RESET button on the NES.

Reception
Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu rated the game a 25/40.

HKWNB, HKCOTW, Current events
Hi. Thanks for your contributions to some Hong Kong-related articles. You might be interested to take a look at HK wikipedians' notice board, HK Collaboration of the Week and Current events in Hong Kong and Macao. Happy editing! — Instantnood 19:36, May 13, 2005 (UTC)

Wikimedia Commons
Thanks a lot for the pictures of the Bun Festival. You can, alternatively, upload the pictures at Wikimedia Commons or even create a Cheung Chau gallery there, so that other language versions of Wikipedia can also use it. And by the way copyright laws of Hong Kong are not the same as those in mainland China, therefore may not be appropriate. — Instantnood 15:47, May 15, 2005 (UTC)

Re: Complaints about HKALE
I see. But what do you think we can do? Did the event actually happen? Seems like there's something new every year, but I don't exactly if something did happen this year. — Instantnood 15:58, May 15, 2005 (UTC)

Several things.
First on Bun Festival 太平清譙, this sentence "but because they are often drugged so as to tolerate the ceremonies." appears to be have a "biased" point of view. Also, the sentence would give a misunderstanding for those reader not familiar with this subject. I would like to hear more details on that matter. (You can reply in Chinese if you want to - Chinese is my native language)

Also your pic on Happy Corner it appears that an inappropariate copyright tag is used. You may want t state under provision can this image be used. SYSS Mouse 00:20, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

Re: Ne reverting
With reference to the message you have left on my talk page, what do you mean by "meaningless"? I have rewritten the section and you should not simply delete it again. That is vandalism.

Happy Corner
Image:Happycorner.jpg Your commentary isn't grammatically correct -- can I suggest the following? Oh yes, and can I translate this picture for Chinese wikipedia? -- Tonync 02:18, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
 * ''The Victim's privates are rubbed or rammed against the pole.
 * Um. I can't quite believe I'm so dedicated about a trivial ceremony like Happy Corner, but, haha, anyway. The words in the picture "Victim's groin either rubbed against or hitting on the pole." is grammatically incorrect (not the same as incorrect wording), because the verbs should be in passive voice. So, if you're going to use "to hit on" as the verb, it should be "Victim's groin either rubbed against or hit on the pole."
 * But in this case, "hit against" isn't correct either, because the victim's private parts aren't hit against (敲打/碰到) the pole, it's rammed against (直衝向、直撞向) it.
 * Furthermore, from what I understand at least -- I've never tried, Happy Corner is about the private parts/sexual organs rather than the groin (大腿內側)? -- Tonync 20:00, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

Re: Chinese names
There is not yet any written convention for names of Hong Kong people. An established unwritten convention, tho, exists. Normally people with an English given name will have the title of the entry in the format Lilian Lee. Redirects such as Lee Pik Wah and Lilian Lee Pik Wah, and even Li Bihua can also be added. — Instantnood 15:17, May 29, 2005 (UTC)

King's College, Hong Kong school song
Hi there. I'm cleaning up mis-directed links and trying to get all the links to Welsh to point to the right articles. There's a couple of links to Welsh in the school song section, but there is no really suitable place to direct these. There's nothing on Welsh marches (and the march page is also a disambiguation page). However, Men of Harlech has a Wikipedia article already so I have altered the links to point to that. I hope this is okay. -- Telsa 23:16, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

Wan Chai and Wan Chai District
Thanks so much for your effort in rewriting it into two articles. :-D — Instantnood 11:50, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)

Pictures
Thanks so much for the pictures. Would be nice if the file names of the pictures are changed to describe the content of the pictures, and captions are included on the image page. For pictures that you have generously taken and shared on Wikipedia, would be great if they can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons, so other language versions of Wikipedia can also use them. — Instantnood 20:25, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
 * The reclamation animation, and those for the stub templates are really great. For the reclamation animation, the old coast line should not be at Queen's Road East, but Johnston Road. Johnston Road was named East Praya (or Bowring Praya East?) then, like a strand at the coast. There is a line on the ground of the staircase of the basketball court near C C Wu Centre showing the original coastline. The rocks there also reveal it was once at the coast. Further, the now-flattened Morrison Hill, encircled by the present day Oi Kwan Circuit, is to the north of the Queen's Road Central. :-) — Instantnood 16:00, Jun 8, 2005 (UTC)
 * Ah yes. You can monitor changes to Hong Kong-related articles by visiting special:Recentchangeslinked/List of Hong Kong-related topics. — Instantnood 16:34, Jun 8, 2005 (UTC)
 * Don't say that. You've contributed a lot to Wikipedia, while I am just getting around to do minor changes. And by the way the location of the entrance of XHT is more like a part of Causeway Bay, and in fact it's on the the border of Wan Chai and Eastern districts. For the reclamation animation, would be nice to look for the location of the natural coastline before making changes to the animation. — Instantnood 18:08, Jun 8, 2005 (UTC)

I suppose you meant "coastline" rather than "costline" in your reclamation animation, right? Check it. --Carlsmith 16:31, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Would be nice if you can move the pictures of Wan Chai to Wikimedia Commons, rename the picture with meaningful file names, and set up a Wan Chai gallery out there. And by the way the natural (original) coastline of Wan Chai was not at Hennessy Road. :-D — Instantnood 11:16, Jun 9, 2005 (UTC)
 * You have to manually rename the file name of the picture, and upload it again, then request to delete the original one. (I have never tried if redirects work for images tho. :-) ) You can upload a picture to Wikmedia Commons here. You can create a gallery for Wan Chai following the format like Hong Kong and MTR.
 * For the reclamation animation, better double check the original coastline before reclamation. As far as I can remember it was at the present-day Johnston Road. — Instantnood 15:21, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)

There are some old maps of Wan Chai at this website, showing the coastline. :-) — Instantnood 17:12, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)

 * I agree with you Jerry. I don't think there's any guideline or rule that gif animations are not allowed for stub templates. You may consult folks at WikiProject Stub Sorting or Grutness (who's active in this project) for the requirements. — Instantnood 03:59, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)

I do not take any stance on the issue, but you may wish to refer to Sections 7 and 8, Chapter 2602 of Laws of Hong Kong: A person who desecrates the regional flag or regional emblem by publicly and wilfully burning, mutilating, scrawling on, defiling or trampling on it commits an offence and is liable-
 * (a) on conviction on indictment to a fine at level 5 and to imprisonment for 3 years; and
 * (b) on summary conviction to a fine at level 3 and to imprisonment for 1 year.

I don't want you to get into trouble, so you should make sure that this is not "mutilation" of the flag. :-) --Carlsmith 07:25, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Re: Name issue for KCRC Rail lines
The KCRC brands its systems as "KCR East Rail", "KCR Ma On Shan Rail" and so on. In fact it was part of an earlier discussion with Mailer diablo and Juntung (well, quite long ago, gotta find out where it was done) to change the titles according to how they're branded by the company. The KCR and Kowloon-Canton Railway Corporation was also split accordingly. — Instantnood 06:56, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)

Hong-Kong-stub
Hi Jerry - I've just reverted the Hong-Kong-stub icon. Sorry - I can appreciate what you're trying to do, but I was getting perplexed as to why my browser crashed every time I tried to open up a Hong Kong stub article until I read your talk page! There are good reasons why animated images are discouraged on Wikipedia - I'm fairly sure they're quite a strain on the servers, and not all older browsers can cope with them. Also, let's face it - stub templates are meant to be unobtrusive. Animating them makes them jump out at the reader. Grutness...  wha?  08:23, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * As the Beatles sang for my heart:"let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be..." -- Jerry Crimson Mann 09:20, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Perhaps you can make a non-animation icon featuring both the flag and the coat of arm. :-D — Instantnood 10:14, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)
 * That's true. I'm going to do it in the near future -- I'll be back! ;-P --Jerry Crimson Mann 10:15, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your one-sided discussion over our loving relationship. I must say it always takes two hands to clap, and if anything, I have yet to ever hear you taking any part of the blame in any dispute. I dont go round quarreling with people from out of the blue.

Re: HKD

Chinese names
With respect to User talk:HenryLi

Those Chinese term only for those translation not yet with article on its own.

"This edition of Wikipedia is in English, so do not use characters or romanized forms excessively, such as for common words, making this a kind of English–Chinese bilingual edition. However, if the term does not have an established translation (that is, has multiple translations or none), feel free to provide the Chinese characters, which will be useful to the content of the article. Proper nouns' Chinese characters should also be supplied, unless it is Wikified and the target article in the English Wikipedia contains the characters. Note that cross links to Chinese Wikipedia will not help researchers who need more information in English."

See introduction of Manual of Style (China-related articles)

In the article Sun Yat-Sen University, I wrote only Chinese characters because the name only change in Chinese and I know nothing about Hanyu pinyin at all. Hopefully someone who know it can fix it. If you insist, I can use Cantonese one instead. The proper noun should be supplied Chinese character according to the manual and should not be hidden.

In the article Tsing Yi, those proper noun, not yet wikified, should be supplied again with Chinese according to the manual.

HenryLi 5 July 2005 14:34 (UTC)

Reply
In your reply

1. "< ! - - - - XXXX - - - - ->" is not good either.

On the same manual "It is usually helpful to add Chinese text to disambiguate Chinese terms that have been transliterated into English. Chinese words are often spelt inconsistently. The addition of native text especially for the article title term is valuable to researchers who need to consult other Chinese scholars on the same subject."

2. Some proper name is not yet wikified while the article is editing. Some might be wikified later. If you see those wikified term with Chinese characters, you can ensure the article contained it is with the Chinese characters and remove it safely from the article as the manual suggests.

But I think one thing about the maps that may make you feel odd is that the thickness of the division lines (border lines) between the districts is not very consistence. I agree with that. Other from that, every thing is pretty fine.

But still, I think it is a better idea to use the type of District-highlighting map like those in the article about different counties or cities in Taiwan. I prefer colouring the land parts on the map with a pale colour with the focused district coloured with another sparp colour (say, red). I prefer keeping the border lines white. In that way, the maps would look more colourful. (In contrast, the style that you poposed is pretty plain. :-P)

Another minor thing is that I think it is a cool idea to add the tiny little map of China at the corner and show the location of Hong Kong on that map.

May I have your screenname in an instant messenger, so that I can discuss that with you in detail? Thanks

A highlighting map of a city on Taiwan can be found in the article of Taipei. I like the fact that the border lines are in white, and each distict/county is like a little piece of a puzzle. But I prefer using a better colour (like the light green that I am using right now) for the "puzzle pieces" instead of using some dull colours like black, grey or the colour of s_it! :-)

It is no harm to add the zoom out map of China. It is just some additional information that foreign readers may be interested in. But, of course, there is already enough information even if there were not the zoon out map. By the way, it seems that there are no maps in the Hong Kong article showing the position of Hong Kong within China - the "position map" just shows a small green spot in an unknown area (the zoom out world map doesn't help at all).

lit.
From CHINESENAME, lit. CHINESELIT. to   * CHINESENAME (lit. CHINESELIT). * CHINESENAME, which literally means CHINESELIT.

I have no idea about it. Writing good English is NOT my strong. Just ask for you idea.

Usually, those Chinese name comes with Chinese character, but

CHINESENAME (CHINESECHARACTER (lit. CHINESELIT))

is too tedious with nested parenthesis.

CHINESENAME (CHINESECHARACTER, which literally means CHINESELIT) is too long for the first line.

How would your deal with this? HenryLi 9 July 2005 17:18 (UTC)

Hi!

Image:Jiangziya.jpg is very nice. You drew it? Do you release it under the GFDL, or Public Domain, in that case?

Thanks. :) kmccoy (talk) 9 July 2005 19:21 (UTC)

Hong Kong flag
Hi! You are a good artist, let me congratulate you on your flags. 1) I notice the references are missing. 2) In the history section, the left aligned image makes it look really cramped. The manufacturing process is a little too small, it would need to be expanded. (add raw materials etc.). Let me know once you've taken care of this, I'll read the article, and then you can put it up on FAC. Thanks =Nichalp   «Talk»=  07:39, July 11, 2005 (UTC)

 * You can move the image to another section, or decrease the size of the image. (I'll let you in on a secret: Ink all the red links for a better success at FAC). Regards, =Nichalp   «Talk»=  07:47, July 11, 2005 (UTC)

Ping Chau and Peng Chau
I noticed you've reorganised Ping Chau and Peng Chau... Tung Ping Chau is actually officially named Ping Chau. "Tung" is added in common speech as the pronuncation of Ping and Peng sound the same in Cantonese. The English name has always been Ping Chau. :-) — Instantnood 07:43, July 11, 2005 (UTC)

List of UN peacekeeping missions
Self nomination. I listed this on PR, and after some good feedback, it's now quiet so I figured it was time for FLC. Rather than the long list of references for the missions' websites, I've integrated them into the table. It's comprehensive (verifiably so), useful, and visually appealing. --Dmcdevit 06:50, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

 * Support Very nice. CheekyMonkey 12:35, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Support, interesting colour selection for the first sections of the table, but still a good list. Phoenix2 16:45, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I'm not good with that kind of thing. Go ahead and change it if you like another color better, I was just trying to differentiate between the two sections. --Dmcdevit 19:43, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
 * Support =Nichalp   «Talk»=  18:11, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
 * Neutral The list is excellent in almost every respects. However, the formatting of the tables are somewhat confusing with regard to the horizontal lines going across them.  This is apparent when more than one country is involved in a peacekeeping deployment.  If this is fixed, I will change vote to support.--Sophitus 20:15, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure what you mean. I did that so that it would be less confusing. Are you saying you wouuld rather them on one line, or what? Sorry, could you be more specific as to what you mean by fix? --Dmcdevit·t 20:38, July 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * Alright, for example, take the section for	United Nations Aouzou Strip Observer Group. This is one mission, but there is a horizontal line going through the table that separates the Chad and Libya flags.  Reasonable enough, but it also bisects the year and the title - "United Nations Aouzou Strip Observer Group".  Perhaps I am nitpicking, but it seems that this line adds a little confusion and clutter to the tables.  Does that make it clear?  Let me reemphasize that the list is excellent otherwise and if you feel my suggestion is unreasonable, well, you already have enough support votes above.--Sophitus 18:15, July 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm sure it's not unreasonable, no matter how many support there are, I'm just trying to understand your comment. On my screen, the white line only bisects the columns that have more than one. The year column on the Aouzou strip row doesn't have a white line through it (because I used the "rowspan" table markup). You're saying you see it differently on your screen? Or am I just being totally stupid and not getting what you're saying? --Dmcdevit·t 01:13, July 16, 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, I do see it differently on my screen, and suddenly it all becomes clear. The terrible browser I am using is messing something up.  I should add that for the past several weeks I have been using someone else's computer, not my own.  As such, I offer my Support--Sophitus 06:54, July 16, 2005 (UTC)
