James H. Schmitz

James Henry Schmitz (October 15, 1911 – April 18, 1981) was a German-American science fiction writer.

Early life
Schmitz was born in Hamburg, Germany to American parents and was educated at a Realgymnasium in Hamburg, and grew up speaking both English and German. The family spent World War I in the United States, then returned to Germany.

Education and early career
Schmitz traveled to Chicago in 1930 to go to business school, then switched to a correspondence course in journalism. Unable to find a job because of the Great Depression, he returned to Germany to work with his father's company. Schmitz lived in various German cities, where he worked for the International Harvester Company, until his family left shortly before World War II broke out in Europe.

Writing career
Schmitz wrote mostly short stories, which sold chiefly to Galaxy Science Fiction and Astounding Science-Fiction (which later became Analog Science Fiction and Fact). Gale Biography in Context called him "a craftsmanlike writer who was a steady contributor to science fiction magazines for over 20 years."

Schmitz is best known as a writer of "space opera", and for his strong female characters (such as Telzey Amberdon and Trigger Argee) who did not conform to the "damsel in distress" stereotype typical of science fiction of the time.

His first published story was "Greenface", published in August 1943 in Unknown.

Most of his works are part of the "Hub" series and feature characters with telepathy. However, the novel that "is usually thought of as Schmitz's best work" is The Witches of Karres, concerning juvenile "witches" with genuine psi-powers and their escape from slavery. The Witches of Karres was nominated for a Hugo Award. In recent years, his novels and short stories have been republished by Baen Books, edited and with notes by Eric Flint.

In an introductory essay comparing Schmitz with contemporary author A. E. van Vogt, Gardner Dozois wrote, "Although he lacked van Vogt's paranoid tension and ornately Byzantine plots, the late James H. Schmitz was considerably better at people than van Vogt was, crafting even his villains as complicated, psychologically complex, and non-stereotypical characters, full of surprising quirks and behaviors that you didn't see in a lot of other Space Adventure stuff."

Dozois added:

"And his universes, although they come with their own share of monsters and sinister menaces, seem as if they would be more pleasant places to live than most Space Opera universes, places where you could have a viable, ordinary, and decent life once the plot was through requiring you to battle for existence against some Dread Implacable Monster; Schmitz even has sympathy for the monsters, who are often seen in the end not to be monsters at all, but rather creatures with agendas and priorities and points-of-view of their own, from which perspectives their actions are justified and sometimes admirable—a tolerant attitude almost unique amidst the Space Adventure tales of the day, most of which were frothingly xenophobic."

John Clute writes in The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction,

"From 1949, when "Agent of Vega" appeared in ASF as the first of 4 stories later assembled as Agent of Vega (collection of linked stories 1960), he regularly produced the kind of tale for which he remains most warmly remembered: Space Opera adventures, several featuring female Heroes depicted with minimum recourse to their "femininity" – they perform their active tasks, and save the Universe when necessary, in a manner almost completely free of sexual role-playing clichés. Most of his best work shares a roughly characterized common background, a Galaxy inhabited by humans and aliens with room for all and numerous opportunities for discoveries and reversals that carefully fall short of threatening the stability of that background. Many of his stories, as a result, focus less on moments of Conceptual Breakthrough than on the pragmatic operations of teams and bureaux involved in maintaining the state of things against criminals, monsters and unfriendly species; in this they rather resemble the tales of Murray Leinster, though they are more vigorous and less inclined to punish adventurousness."

Greg Fowlkes, editor-in-chief of Resurrected Press, said, "During the 50s and 60s "Space Opera" and James H. Schmitz were almost synonymous. He was famous for his tales of interstellar secret agents and galactic criminals, and particularly for heroines such as Telzey Amberdon and Trigger Argee. Many of these characters had enhanced "psionic" powers that let them use their minds as well as their weapons to foil their enemies. All of them were resourceful in the best heroic tradition."

In an essay in the anthology The Good Old Stuff (1998), Dozois laments that the book Agent of Vega is "long out-of-print, alas, but one which – if you can find it – delivers as pure a jolt of Widescreen Space Opera Sense of wonder as can be found anywhere." However, the website Free Speculative Fiction Online freely offers Agent of Vega, along with several of Schmitz's other stories, including "Greenface", "Balanced Ecology", "Lion Loose", "Goblin Night", and many more.

Schmitz wrote the introduction to the concordance The Universes of E. E. Smith.

Legacy
Gardner Dozois has said, in prefacing the Schmitz tale "The Second Night of Summer", in which humans on the planet Noorhut face an attack from aliens and are, unbeknownst to themselves, saved by the actions of a single woman with psi powers, Granny Wannattel, with the sole help of a friendly alien she calls her pony:

"Schmitz was decades ahead of the curve in his portrayal of female characters—years before the Women's Movement of the '70s would come along to raise the consciousness of SF writers (or attempt to), Schmitz was not only frequently using women as the heroines in swashbuckling tales of interplanetary adventure—itself almost unheard of at the time—but he was also treating them as the total equal of the male characters, every bit as competent and brave and smart (and ruthless, when needs be), without saddling them with any of the "female weaknesses"—like an inclination to faint or cower under extreme duress, and/or seek protection behind the muscular frame of the Tough Male Hero) that would mar the characterization of women by some writers for years to come. (The Schmitz Woman, for instance, is every bit as tough and competent as the Heinlein Woman—who, to be fair, isn't prone to fainting in a crisis either—but without her annoying tendency to think that nothing in the universe is as important as marrying Her Man and settling down to have as many babies as possible.)"

With his popular equality-between-the-sexes fiction, Schmitz eased the way for later writers such as Joanna Russ, James Tiptree, Jr., Kit Reed, Connie Willis, Sheri S. Tepper, and other science fiction authors who used female protagonists and feminine point-of-view more than half the time. Of "The Second Night of Summer", Dozois went on to write, "the hero of the piece is not only a woman, but an old woman ... a choice that most adventure writers wouldn't even make now, in 1998, let alone in 1950, which is when Schmitz made it!"

Mercedes Lackey places her first meeting with science fiction at age 10 or 11, when she happened to pick up her father's copy of James H. Schmitz's Agent of Vega.

Personal life
During World War II, Schmitz served as an aerial photographer in the Pacific for the United States Army Air Forces. After the war, he took residence in California where he and his brother-in-law managed a business which manufactured trailers until they ended the business in 1949. Schmitz died of congestive lung failure in 1981 after a five-week stay in hospital in Los Angeles. He was survived by his wife, Betty Mae Chapman Schmitz.

A Bar at the Folies-Bergère

A Bar at the Folies-Bergère (Un bar aux Folies Bergère) is a painting by Édouard Manet, considered to be his last major work. It was painted in 1882 and exhibited at the Paris Salon of that year. It depicts a scene in the Folies Bergère nightclub in Paris. The painting originally belonged to the composer Emmanuel Chabrier, a close friend of Manet, and hung over his piano. It is now in the Courtauld Gallery in London.

Painting
The painting exemplifies Manet's commitment to Realism in its detailed representation of a contemporary scene. Many features have puzzled critics but almost all of them have been shown to have a rationale, and the painting has been the subject of numerous popular and scholarly articles.

The central figure stands before a mirror, although critics—accusing Manet of ignorance of perspective and alleging various impossibilities in the painting—have debated this point since the earliest reviews were published. In 2000, however, a photograph taken from a suitable point of view of a staged reconstruction was shown to reproduce the scene as painted by Manet. According to this reconstruction, "the conversation that many have assumed was transpiring between the barmaid and gentleman is revealed to be an optical trick—the man stands outside the painter's field of vision, to the left, and looks away from the barmaid, rather than standing right in front of her." As it appears, the observer should be standing to the right and closer to the bar than the man whose reflection appears at the right edge of the picture. This is an unusual departure from the central point of view usually assumed when viewing pictures drawn according to perspective.

Asserting the presence of the mirror has been crucial for many modern interpreters. It provides a meaningful parallel with Las Meninas, a masterpiece by an artist Manet admired, Diego Velázquez. There has been a considerable development of this topic since Michel Foucault broached it in his book The Order of Things (1966).

The art historian Jeffrey Meyers describes the intentional play on perspective and the apparent violation of the operations of mirrors: "Behind her, and extending for the entire length of the four-and-a-quarter-foot painting, is the gold frame of an enormous mirror. The French philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty has called a mirror 'the instrument of a universal magic that changes things into spectacles, spectacles into things, me into others, and others into me.' We, the viewers, stand opposite the barmaid on the other side of the counter and, looking at the reflection in the mirror, see exactly what she sees... A critic has noted that Manet's 'preliminary study shows her placed off to the right, whereas in the finished canvas she is very much the centre of attention.' Though Manet shifted her from the right to the center, he kept her reflection on the right. Seen in the mirror, she seems engaged with a customer; in full face, she's self-protectively withdrawn and remote."

The painting is rich in details which provide clues to social class and milieu. The woman at the bar is a real person, known as Suzon, who worked at the Folies-Bergère in the early 1880s. For his painting, Manet posed her in his studio. By including a dish of oranges in the foreground, Manet identifies the barmaid as a prostitute, according to art historian Larry L. Ligo, who says that Manet habitually associated oranges with prostitution in his paintings. T. J. Clark says that the barmaid is "intended to represent one of the prostitutes for which the Folies-Bergère was well-known", who is represented "as both a salesperson and a commodity—something to be purchased along with a drink."

Other notable details include the pair of green feet in the upper left-hand corner, which belong to a trapeze artist who is performing above the restaurant's patrons. The beer bottles depicted are easily identified by the red triangle on the label as Bass Pale Ale, and the conspicuous presence of this British brand instead of German beer has been interpreted as documentation of anti-German sentiment in France in the decade after the Franco-Prussian War.

Cultural references
The 1934 ballet Bar aux Folies-Bergère with choreography by Ninette de Valois and music of Chabrier was created from, and based around, Manet's painting. The 1947 film The Private Affairs of Bel Ami faithfully references A Bar at the Folies-Bergère twenty nine minutes into the film with a look-alike actress, set and props as the main characters enter the establishment.

The painting was the inspiration of a song (possibly by Sydney Carter) in the popular theatre production The Lyric Revue, in London in 1951. The refrain went "Oh, how I long to be back in my dear Brittany[...] But fate has chosen me for the bar at the Folies-Bergères".

The painting The Bar (1954) by Australian artist John Brack, which depicts a comparatively grim and austere Melbourne bar-room scene, is an ironic reference to A Bar at the Folies-Bergère.

In the 1988 Eddie Murphy film Coming to America, a spoof on the painting in which the barmaids are dark-skinned women in red dresses and there is a hamburger on a plate on the counter can be seen hanging at the McDowell residence.

Canadian artist Jeff Wall makes reference to A Bar at the Folies-Bergère in his work Picture for Women (1979). The Tate Modern wall text for Picture for Women, from the 2005–2006 exhibition Jeff Wall Photographs 1978–2004, outlines the influence of Manet's painting:

"In Manet's painting, a barmaid gazes out of frame, observed by a shadowy male figure. The whole scene appears to be reflected in the mirror behind the bar, creating a complex web of viewpoints. Wall borrows the internal structure of the painting, and motifs such as the light bulbs that give it spatial depth. The figures are similarly reflected in a mirror, and the woman has the absorbed gaze and posture of Manet's barmaid, while the man is the artist himself. Though issues of the male gaze, particularly the power relationship between male artist and female model, and the viewer's role as onlooker, are implicit in Manet's painting, Wall updates the theme by positioning the camera at the centre of the work, so that it captures the act of making the image (the scene reflected in the mirror) and, at the same time, looks straight out at us."

Adventure in Paris, a book in the popular British Oxford Reading Tree scheme for children, clearly references the painting in a scene where the children travel back to 19th-century Paris to enquire as to the whereabouts of the Eiffel Tower.

Illinois Route 157

Illinois Route 157 (IL 157) is a 35.50 mi north–south state highway in the southwestern part of the U.S. state of Illinois. The southern terminus of the highway is at an intersection with IL 3 in Cahokia. The northern terminus of the highway is at an intersection with IL 140 in Hamel.

Route description
IL 157 travels concurrent with IL 13 and IL 163 in Centreville and IL 159 and IL 143 in Edwardsville. IL 157 is the major north–south road through the busiest towns in Madison County – Collinsville and Edwardsville.

The segment of the highway in Cahokia Heights from IL 3 to IL 13 is known as Camp Jackson Road.

The segment of the highway north from IL 13 to approximately Interstate 270 (I-270) is known as Bluff Road, because it roughly follows the eastern bluffs of the Mississippi River which define the American Bottoms in Madison and St. Clair counties.

History
State Bond Issue Route (SBI) Route 157 originally traveled from Cahokia to Glen Carbon. It was then extended to the Missouri state line at the Jefferson Barracks Bridge in 1946; this was undone by 1958. In 1965, the northern terminus was moved to Hamel, replacing U.S. Route 66 Bypass (US 66 Byp.), which itself was the US 66 mainline prior to 1957.

Victor Boudreau

Victor E. Boudreau (born May 3, 1970) is a New Brunswick politician. He was a member of the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick from 2004 to 2018, representing the ridings of Shediac-Cap-Pelé and Shediac-Beaubassin-Cap-Pelé for the New Brunswick Liberal Association, and was the Leader of the Opposition in the legislature. In 2023, Boudreau was appointed as the chief administrative officer for the Town of Shediac. In 2024, he was appointed to the Senate of Canada on the advice of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Biography
Boudreau was recruited to the Liberal Party in 1989 by Dominic LeBlanc and he attended the 1990 federal Liberal leadership convention to support Jean Chrétien. Chrétien, who was then without a seat in the House of Commons of Canada, ran in a by-election in Boudreau's riding of Beauséjour.

Following this initial engagement, Boudreau became very active in politics. He served as president of the Young Liberals and then worked for Fernand Robichaud when he was a member of the Cabinet of Canada and for Bernard Richard—his predecessor as MLA for Shediac-Cap-Pelé—when he was in the New Brunswick cabinet

Prior to his election to the legislature, he worked as village administrator of Cap-Pelé.

Graham ministry
He was re-elected in 2006 and took on the role of finance minister in the cabinet of Shawn Graham. Boudreau was given several additional responsibilities, both ministerial and non-ministerial.

Back in opposition
Following the Liberal party's defeat in the 2010 election, Boudreau was named interim leader of the party on November 10, 2010 after Graham stepped down. Brian Gallant was elected leader of the party on October 27, 2012, and assumed the role of opposition leader when he won the district of Kent in a by-election on April 15, 2013.

Paul Runyan

Paul Scott Runyan (July 12, 1908 – March 17, 2002) was an American professional golfer. Among the world's best players in the mid-1930s, he won two PGA Championships, and is a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame. Runyan was also a golf instructor.

Early life
Born in Hot Springs, Arkansas, Runyan started out as a caddie and then an apprentice at a golf course in his hometown, before turning pro at age 17. He was head professional at a Little Rock club by age 18. Runyan served as head pro at Metropolis Country Club in White Plains, New York from 1931 to 1943 during which time he won both of his PGA championships.

Tour winner
Three years later, Runyan defeated Craig Wood in extra holes in the title match of the 1934 PGA Championship, the first of his two PGA Championships. Of Runyan's 29 career PGA Tour wins, 16 of them came in 1933 and 1934, and his nine wins in 1933 make him one of only seven golfers to win nine or more times in one year on the PGA Tour. In the first Masters Tournament in 1934, he was paired for the first 36 holes with tournament host Bobby Jones. Runyan won the tour money title in 1934, and was a member of the U.S. Ryder Cup team in 1933 and 1935.

Runyan was competitive for many years; he won the PGA Championship again in 1938 and led the U.S. Open after three rounds as late as 1951. In the finals of his 1938 PGA, Runyan defeated Sam Snead 8 and 7, the most lopsided title match ever in the event, conducted as match play through 1957. This was despite Snead's vastly greater length off the tee, as much as 75 yd per hole.

Fellow golfers nicknamed him "Little Poison" (a take on 1930s baseball player Lloyd Waner, who had the same nickname), primarily because he did not drive the ball very far, but also because he had a terrific short game. Runyan had worked tirelessly on his short game from boyhood, since he realized early on if he were to succeed in golf, he had to compensate for his lack of length. Runyan opined that he is the smallest player in golf history who had significant success, although Fred McLeod had a fine record, too, and stood only 5ft 4in and weighed a paltry 108 lb.

Master teacher
Runyan's teaching prowess led many top pros to him over his 75 years of teaching, including Gene Littler, Phil Rodgers, Chuck Courtney, Frank Beard, Jim Ferree and Mickey Wright. Golf Magazine wrote: "... since the late 1930s, he has probably been the most influential short game instructor. Untold thousands have been taught his methods for putting and chipping." Runyan wrote an influential book outlining his short-game methods, The Short Way to Lower Scoring.

He appeared as a contestant on the October 25, 1950, edition of You Bet Your Life where he tells an anecdote of hitting a spectator with his ball and in another competition his partner hits the same man.

Runyan was the first head golf professional at Sahalee Country Club outside Seattle in Sammamish, Washington, and served from 1968 to 1971. He attended the 1998 PGA Championship at Sahalee and while there received the PGA Distinguished Service Award after playing nine holes on the championship course at age 90.

In 2000, he completed the annual Par 3 competition held one day before the Masters at the age of 91. He died in Palm Springs, California.

Honors
Runyan was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1990. In addition, he is a member of the World Golf Teachers Hall of Fame, the Arkansas Hall of Fame and The Southern California Golf Association Hall of Fame. He received the Harvey Penick Lifetime Teaching Award and the PGA of America Distinguished Service Award.

Template talk:Infobox airline/Archive 2

Planned Hub
I would like to ask if putting "planned" after a specific airport which is considered as secondary hub is accepted or not? I have noticed an edit on Philippine Airlines where Clark International Airport is planned to become PAL's secondary hub. SkyHigher (talk) 03:32, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

 * It may be best to wait until it actually is, and planned things can just be mentioned in the main body. MilborneOne (talk) 20:10, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Airport lounges
A list of the names, but not of which airport, of various airport lounges in infobox (see infobox of the article of Cathay Pacific) would be meaningless to a novice. Is there any encyclopedic value for such list?---Now wiki (talk) 15:44, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Not really most of the stuff we have on lounges is bordering on travel guide stuff, so unless they are individually notable for some reason you are probably right and should not be included in the infobox. MilborneOne (talk) 20:09, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Noted.---Now wiki (talk) 15:33, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

 * When will the template be updated???---Now wiki (talk) 15:35, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I agree that the names of airport lounges is unnecessary. AHeneen (talk) 01:43, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
 * done. Frietjes (talk) 14:53, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

Additional fields
It would be great if we could add additional fields of stats that are commonly measured like PRKs (revenue per passenger kilometer), ASK (available seat kilometers), Load factor, and Passengers per year. Is anyone willing to do this?Keizers (talk) 19:48, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Most readers probably would not have a clue what they are, are this figures actually included in the main body of the article? Appears to be something that could be done in wikidata rather than here. MilborneOne (talk) 20:13, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Load factor is usually a value that is used to measure the performance of a particular route, I don't think I have ever seen it used to measure the performance of an entire airline. ASK and annual revenue passengers are common figures to measure airline performance and would be appropriate measurements for the infobox. I'm not too sure about whether PRKs would be appropriate. AHeneen (talk) 01:41, 13 January 2017 (UTC)

 * I'm quite surprised that no one gets what I am asking for here. For example, it is QUITE common to wonder how much passengers are carried per year Keizers (talk) 14:19, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

Air Way Bill prefix
In addition to the two primary codes (IATA and ICAO) that identify airlines, most cargo airlines have a three digit air way bill prefix as well. This code is used on shipping documents. It is almost universally used for anything involving an airline in the role of a cargo carrier. AZFreight's list of airlines has a relatively complete list, for example. The information seems clearly encyclopedic, and I would therefore recommend added awb_prefix or, if brevity is desired, awb as a field, to be displayed above or below the ISIN field. Waitak (talk) 22:14, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Please make your edits in the sandbox and verify use, then reactivate the edit request. — xaosflux  Talk 13:24, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Add field for Ticket Stock number
I would like to add the airline's ticket stock number (a three digit number) to the template - and also use that data, as it becomes available, for an automatically created list of ticket stock numbers. This information is sometimes hard to come by. However, I don't know how to do this on Wikipedia. :-) Ds77 (talk) 20:24, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I agree that this template needs the "traded_as" field for the stock code/number, such as found in Template:Infobox company. This was previously discussed above in the section Needs traded_as field (and possibly others) with compelling arguments but no clear consensus for inclusion, but the above comment is the second additional person supporting this field. As such, I have added the edit request. AHeneen (talk) 01:04, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Ds77 is talking about the three-digit "prefix" or "accounting" codes. These are allotted by IATA and appear on printed tickets. I'm disabling Edit template-protected, which should only be used when there's consensus for a change. Alakzi (talk) 01:14, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
 * As we are not a travel guide I cant see any encyclopedic value in the accounting code being displayed, which as far as I know are never mentioned in the article body because they are not notable. Perhaps something for wikidata. MilborneOne (talk) 11:41, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, it would be convenient to add that field. IATA names it "Accounting code (PAX)" and/or "Airline prefix code", as seen in their code look-up page: http://www.iata.org/publications/Pages/code-search.aspx. For instance, if you search for LH, you will see that the prefix code is 220. So, what about prefix_code for that new field? I can add it in case you agree. -- Denis.arnaud (talk) 16:49, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
 * As already mentioned this is not a travel guide and it has no encyclopedic value so I don't agree that it should be added here, perhaps a field for wikidata. MilborneOne (talk) 11:15, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Proposal created on Wikidata: Wikidata:Property proposal/Airline Accounting Code, and its transclusion in the transportation section -- Denis.arnaud (talk) 09:52, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thats up to wikidata but you cant include in this infobox witout gaining a consensus here, but they could use it on wikitravel. MilborneOne (talk) 20:43, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Sure, it was already made clear in the discussion above. The idea is just to add it to Wikidata for now. I mentioned that proposal on Wikidata because it was suggested as the potential way to go. -- Denis.arnaud (talk) 20:48, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Understood. MilborneOne (talk) 08:09, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

Destination count
At the risk of asking a silly question, what is the consensus: does a hub also count as a destination? I've noticed that some articles on small airlines seem not to count hubs as destinations, but it seems obvious to me that a hub is simultaneously a destination, and should both be listed by name as a hub *and* counted in the number of destinations. Thoughts? Carguychris (talk) 22:10, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * From an airline perspective (I worked at one), a hub definitely counts as a destination. Keizers (talk) 04:14, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

Extra Image
I've just added the ability to have an image in the infobox in addition to the logo. Most infoboxes seem to have the ability to have multiple images. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 08:11, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

Fate parameter
Is there a specific reason why 'fate' parameter isn't available with this infobox, to explain why the airline is now defunct, much like Template:Infobox company? It seems logical to have that option here as well, given that a 'ceased operations' parameter exists.--The Navigators (talk) 04:09, 29 November 2019 (UTC)

Remove slogan
This template still has a slogan, which was removed from on the basis that it is just promotional. I agree; every time I see a slogan in the infobox I think to myself "why are we letting the marketing department into the infobox". Anything truly significant about an airline's slogan can be discussed in the article. But inclusion in the infobox is not warranted. MB 19:12, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
 * , there has been no objection here for a month. Would you feel comfortable removing slogan based on the lack of response here, as well as the consensus at the more general since an airline is really a specific type of company? MB 16:25, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
 * WP:SILENCE probably applies. MilborneOne (talk) 19:23, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
 * removed and tracked in Category:Pages using infobox airline with company slogan until there are fewer to track. Frietjes (talk) 14:11, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

Documentation encourages small text within key_people
This appears to be out of step with MOS:SMALLTEXT, which states "Avoid using smaller font sizes within elements that already use a smaller font size, such as infoboxes, navboxes, and reference sections". The same issue exists with revenue, income and assets fields. Should infobox airline use a style that is visibly different from infobox company? Chris the speller  yack  15:21, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
 * , go ahead and fix the documentation. Frietjes (talk) 15:56, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

Template-protected edit request on 2 January 2020
Remove all HTML markup and WP templates that specify font size, such as, , ,. , . See the talk page. These are found in parameter instructions, examples and notes for key_people, and parameters for revenue, operating income, net income, assets, equity, losses, etc. Chris the speller   yack  18:27, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Full-protection-shackle-no-text.svg Not done: is usually not required for edits to the documentation, categories, or interlanguage links of templates using a documentation subpage. Use the 'edit' link at the top of the green "Template documentation" box to edit the documentation subpage. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:38, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

 * ✅ OK, I made the changes myself using the method you suggested. Chris the speller   yack  21:02, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

Image conflict
The doc shows image, but undocumented logo is a working alias that is actually used more often. If you use image=, but include logo= with no value, the image is not displayed. ? MB 18:40, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Iam not convinced that this template needs an "image" when it was designed to show a logo and not a random aircraft picture. MilborneOne (talk) 19:23, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
 * seems reasonable. for now I have unnested the parameters to prevent the non-obvious from happening. Frietjes (talk) 20:04, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

Template:Infobox airline/doc#Example wikidata problems
The wikidata property link template only works to a 'P' code from Wikidata. The wikidata entity link will work with both 'Q' and 'P' codes. If you go to Template:Infobox airline/doc and click on the hyperlinks, for example, on one of the airlines or hubs, it only goes to 'Bad request'. The documentation really needs to be updated to either each 'Q' code for each entity, or just link it to the English Wikipedia page. Funandtrvl (talk) 21:01, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * if the purpose was to link to the Wikidata property pages, then this template needs to be coded like Template:Infobox company, where for the ISIN parameter, the data will already be coded for Wikidata, like this:

Adding Membership section in template
Hey there,

Can there be the addition of a Membership section? It would be similar to the section of “alliance”. The reason is because certain airlines, like Arab carriers belong to a specific organization called the ‘Arab Air Carriers Organization’. I suspect other airlines around the world might have memberships in their own respective organizations so this will be a good addition to have. Thanks WatanWatan2020 (talk) 00:28, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
 * There already is a section for alliance memberships which is sufficient. There aren't many other conglomerates as the AACO. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.174.169.170 (talk) 20:58, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Add Founder
Someone please add a new field for Founder. Currently, key people field is packed with founder names in addition to corporate leaders.Srijanx22 (talk) 00:40, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
 * ✅ You may now use one person or multiple people. User:GKFXtalk 10:41, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

Gato Barbieri

Leandro "Gato" Barbieri (November 28, 1932 – April 2, 2016) was an Argentine jazz tenor saxophonist who rose to fame during the free jazz movement in the 1960s and is known for his Latin jazz recordings of the 1970s. His nickname, Gato, is Spanish for "cat".

Biography
Born to a family of musicians, Barbieri began playing music after hearing Charlie Parker's "Now's the Time". He played the clarinet and later the alto saxophone while performing with Argentine pianist Lalo Schifrin in the late 1950s. By the early 1960s, while playing in Rome, he also worked with the trumpeter Don Cherry. By now influenced by John Coltrane's late recordings, as well as those from other free jazz saxophonists such as Albert Ayler and Pharoah Sanders, he began to develop the warm and gritty tone with which he is associated. In the late 1960s, he was fusing music from South America into his playing and contributed to multi-artist projects like Charlie Haden's Liberation Music Orchestra and Carla Bley's Escalator over the Hill. His score for Bernardo Bertolucci's 1972 film Last Tango in Paris earned him a Grammy Award and led to a record deal with Impulse! Records.

By the mid-1970s, he was recording for A&M Records and moved his music towards soul-jazz and jazz-pop. Caliente! (1976) included his best-known song, a rendition of Carlos Santana's "Europa". Caliente! and his follow-up album, Ruby Ruby (1977) were both produced by fellow musician and label co-founder, Herb Alpert.

Although he continued to record and perform well into the 1980s, including composing the scores to films such as Firepower (1979) and Strangers Kiss (1983), the death of his wife Michelle led him to withdraw from the public arena. He returned to recording and performing in the late 1990s, composing original scores at the behest of friend Bahman Maghsoudlou for Amir Naderi's Manhattan by Numbers (1991) and Daryush Shokof's Seven Servants (1996). The album Qué Pasa (1997) moved more into the style of smooth jazz.

Barbieri was the inspiration for the character Zoot in the fictional Muppet band Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem.

On April 2, 2016, Barbieri died of pneumonia in New York City at the age of 83.

Personal life
Barbieri married his first wife Michelle in 1960. She was also his manager and musical confidant. She died in 1995 after a 10-year battle with cancer. During that time, Barbieri stopped recording and touring to care for her. After her death, he went back to play and met his second wife, Laura, who gave birth to his son Christian, in 1998.

Everyone but Andrew was released. I don't understand why Stein was released, he is the only talent other than Ferrall that I've enjoyed on FSR. He's now with Sporting News Radio.

It's FOX, not Fox.
FOX usually likes to have the entire word "Fox" in capitals, and not just the "F". I've noticed alot of my edits when I call the network "FOX Sports Radio" or just use the word FOX, the very next edit changes it to "Fox". If you look on any FOX related site, the entire word is capitalized, and not just the F.

quotes
Verifiability is a minimum threshhold, not a mandate. Thatcher131 -

"Not everything that can be verifiable needs to (or should) go in Wikipedia.

While Wikipedia is at 2 million articles and counting, this is no cause for celebration. Many of these articles are having some cleanup, citation or other issue that detracts from the quality of our site. As of this message, we have not even reached 1,600 featured articles and not even 3,000 decent articles. So, out of the sheer madness that we call Wikipedia, less than 5,000 pages have been identified with some sort of decent quality control. This is disturbing to me and it should be disturbing to you. I am not sure what will make the community wake up; a nice cup of coffee, a message like this or a swift kick in the testicles; but something has to be done. Whatever path you choose to take is completely on your own, regardless, we must do the following: Forget quantity and let's get quality. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 08:50, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Typee

Feedback
For anyone, anyone who happens to be as interested in Typee as I am, I'd love to know what people think of my revision of this page, previously a stub. There's more to come...
 * Looking good. Please consider opening an account.  Also, please consider signing your comments on the talk page, by simply typing ~ at the end.  Then your comments will be signed (with your own acct name, obviously), like this: Tomer TALK  03:38, July 25, 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if you're responsible, but there is a hell of a lot of original research and unreferenced material in the article - for example, the bit about it being the most intelligent written material about 19th Century European-Polynesian contact, which is just hogwash. See, for example, Augustus Earle's A Narrative of Nine Months' Residence in New Zealand (1827). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.75.116.238 (talk) 05:53, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Versions
Since there are at least two versions (original-complete and censored), the references to online versions should be labelled/organized. And ideally there should be an online set of the differences -- the censored passages would certainly be educational about the times.69.87.200.44 01:26, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

The Melvilles
Someone should add material about the Melvilles, as described by Hermester Barrington (Malibu Lake, California) in his October 24, 2000 Amazon review of this book.69.87.200.44 01:26, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

accurate description?
Need much more online detailed discussion etc of the accuracy of all the details in the book Typee -- the language of the natives, behavior, etc.69.87.200.44 01:26, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

In line citations
In line citations are needed; the analysis is useless and can be considered WP:OR without it. My guess is the original editor that added most of it (an anonymous account) is long gone. --Midnightdreary 22:03, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree. The Analysis section is completely unsourced, and yet contains a rather lengthy blockquote that presumably came from somewhere.   -- Oswald Glinkmeyer (talk) 12:25, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

"Novel," "Memoir," "Travel Book," "Romance" or just "Book"?
I appreciate MackyBeth's attention and intelligent work on this and other pages, but I wonder if it wouldn't be better to avoid a discussion of Typee (and Omoo)'s genre. "Book" is perfectly neutral, but "novel" -- as I recall from a search a few years ago and could be wrong -- is not used in the Northwestern-Newbury "Historical Note." I agree that it should be listed in the WikiProject Novel, however, since it historically led to HM's later novels. ch (talk) 21:13, 4 December 2013 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the compliment, and for your contribution to the new Sealts article. You are right about avoiding that discussion, to me it was so self-evident that the book is a novel that I didn't even give it a thought when I was trying to give the opening lines of the articles on Melville's individual works something of a standardized appearance. The NN "Historical Note" you are referring to is almost half a century old and better insights into the nature of Typee may have emerged since. I have here at hand John Bryant (ed.), A Companion to Melville Studies (Greenwood Press, 1986), where Bette S. Weidman writes on Typee: "To the vexed question of whether his first two books, Typee and Omoo, are novels or autobiographies or varieties of travel literature, let it be said at once that Melville is best defined as a writer: one who writes in order to explore what he knows" (p. 85). So this raises the issue rather than settle it. Unfortunately, I do not yet own Vol I of Hershel Parker's Melville biography from 1996, but the best place to start might be John Bryant's Penguin edition of Typee, which also explores the manuscript leaves that were discovered in 1983, which discovery in itself renders the NN Historical Note obsolete, but perhaps not its discussion of the genre.MackyBeth (talk) 14:44, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

 * Good -- I don't have your useful erudition on this point, but I think we agree that "book" is the appropriate neutral way to avoid this "vexed question" (not the only one regarding HM's oevre!). ch (talk) 19:38, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

 * Yep--agreed, let's not go into this minor issue further when there is still so much major knowledge lacking on these Wikipedia Melville pages.MackyBeth (talk) 21:12, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

External links removed
The External Links section has a whole list of online versions, some of which have no added value. I kept the Project Gutenberg version, and also the link to the photographs of the first edition of 1846. Only one of the two audio versions remained.MackyBeth (talk) 08:13, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

Charles S. Stewart
Section Background: One of the books Melville used is by Charles S. Stewart. I'm not sure if this was Charles Stewart (American Navy officer). His biography indicates he could be the author of the book, but unfortunately I cannot find that he wrote any book. Maybe someone knows whether this is the author, so that his name may be wikilinked.

Port of Beirut

The Port of Beirut (مرفأ بيروت) is the main port in Lebanon on the eastern part of the Saint George Bay on Beirut's northern Mediterranean coast, west of the Beirut River. It is one of the largest and busiest ports on the Eastern Mediterranean.

On 4 August 2020, a large explosion, caused by improperly stored ammonium nitrate, occurred at the port, killing at least 218 people, injuring more than 7,000 and rendering 300,000 others homeless. Large sections of the port and its infrastructure were destroyed, including most of Beirut's grain reserves, and billions of dollars in damages were inflicted across the city. The Port of Beirut was forced to close, due to the large-scale damage caused by the explosions, with cargo being redirected to smaller ports, such as Tripoli and Tyre. Prior to the disaster, about 60 percent of Lebanon's imports came through the port, according to an S&P Global estimate.

On 14 April 2022, the Lebanese government ordered the demolition of Beirut’s grain silos, which are at risk of collapse after the 2020 port explosion. On 31 July and 4 August 2022, exactly 2 years after the explosion, the northern parts of the existing grain silos fell down.

Management
The port has been nicknamed the "Cave of Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves" due to longstanding reports of corruption, including evasion of customs duties at the port due to bribery schemes and the undervaluation of imports. In the early 2010s, Public Works and Transportation Minister Ghazi Aridi estimated that tax evasion at the port amounted to more than $1.5 billion annually. The port also earns this nickname for its abandonment of cargo and crew. In the aftermath of massive explosions in 2020, in an apparent industrial accident, Faysal Itani, a political analyst and deputy director of the Center for Global Policy at Georgetown University wrote that the Port, like other aspects of Lebanese society, suffered from "pervasive culture of negligence, petty corruption and blame-shifting."

History
In 1887, during Ottoman rule, the Port was granted to a French Company, the Compagnie du Port, des Quais et des Entrepôts de Beyrouth (Company of the Port, Quays and Warehouses of Beirut). The Ottoman administration granted further concessions and autonomy to the company, in managing the Port of Beirut, as it became an important harbour in Lebanon. In 1920, Lebanon came under French Administration, under the Mandate for Syria and the Lebanon, acting as Greater Lebanon. This provided the Port with access to French funding and trade. The Port of Beirut would be continue to be operated by the same French Company, which renamed the Gestion et Exploitation du Port de Beyrouth in 1960.

Much of the port was damaged during the Lebanese Civil War, and various parts of the port were under the control of various armed militias. In 1976, all shipping at the port stopped for nine months due to militia clashes. A 1977 article in the Middle East Economic Digest reported that "not a warehouse or piece of equipment was intact" when the port officially reopened on 15 December 1976. The Lebanese Forces, a Christian militia, took control of the port in mid-1986; the militia withdrew in 1989 amid a push from Lebanese Army forces under the command of General Michel Aoun. In 1991, Lebanese Forces that had controlled a pier at the Beirut port were ousted by Lebanese Army forces under Emile Lahoud; the seizure was part of broader efforts by President Elias Hrawi to consolidate power in the Beirut area, and coincided with the ouster of the Shi'a Amal from the Ouzai port and the predominately Druze Progressive Socialist Party from the Khalde harbor.

After the war, the seaport and surrounding area were reconstructed and again became a major seaport. The port is operated and managed by the Gestion et Exploitation du Port de Beyrouth (GEPB), ("Port Authority of Beirut"). In 1990, the Port of Beirut came under direct ownership of the Government of Lebanon, following the expiration of the company's charter, and continues to be operated by GEPB.

Container terminal
Since December, 2004, container terminal operations are subcontracted to the private Beirut Container Terminal Consortium (BCTC). The terminal quay was expanded to 1100 m and has 16 post-panamax ship-to-shore gantry cranes, and extensive on-shore container handling equipment. In addition to exports and imports, the terminal handles significant container transshipments. Traffic has grown from 945,143 TEUs in 2008, to 1,229,081 in 2019.

2020 Beirut explosion
On 4 August 2020, a series of explosions occurred in the port. At least 204 people were killed (with an additional 3 missing) plus 6,500 were injured; the explosion initially killed several port workers, with the resulting shockwave affecting half of the city, killing several residents in their homes and people in buildings and streets. The explosions destroyed large parts of the port, including its warehouses and grain elevator; however, satellite imagery taken after the explosion shows the container port largely intact. As of 14 August, the container port was operating.

Up to 300,000 people may have been rendered homeless, according to Beirut City Governor Marwan Abboud. Damage estimates are in the billions of dollars, some estimates reaching $15 billion. The cruise ship Orient Queen sank in the port after receiving massive damage.

The initial explosion may have occurred in a fireworks warehouse, while a subsequent larger blast came from 2,750 tons of highly explosive ammonium nitrate that had been stored for the preceding six years at a depot at the port, specifically Hangar 12. The ammonium nitrate had arrived at the port in September 2013, on board a Russian-owned, Moldovan-flagged cargo ship called the MV Rhosus. The vessel came from Georgia and was bound for Mozambique, but was abandoned by its owners and crew in Beirut. In six letters over the next three years, port customs officials warned Lebanese authorities about the dangers of the storage of the chemical at the port and asked for authorisation to re-export it, turn it over to the army, or sell it to a Lebanese explosives company. However, no action was taken to remove the stockpile, as all six letters were ignored. Following the explosions which came from the Port of Beirut, the Government of Lebanon placed 16 Port Officials under house arrest, due to questions on the management of the port.

Fire in the port area
On 10 September 2020, a large fire erupted in the port area covering the skies of Beirut with toxic gas. The incident occurred in a cooking oil warehouse and food parcels belonging to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), then spread to a stock of rubber tires in the port's duty-free zone. Following black smoke rising above the city's skyline, panic broke out due to the fear of another explosion, and motivated people to flee the city, with the addition of the Lebanese governor Marwan Abboud asking the people of Beirut to reduce traffic to roads leading to the port, for the firefighters to act quick with putting off the fires. The fire was brought under control, by fire personnel on the ground and by Lebanese Air Force helicopters dropping water.

Dan Goggin (composer)

Dan Goggin is an American writer, composer, and lyricist for musical theatre.

Biography
Goggin began his career as a singer in the Broadway production of Luther, which starred Albert Finney. He then toured for five years as a member of the folksinging duo The Saxons, before writing the music for and appearing in the off-Broadway musical Hark!.

Goggin began composing both music and lyrics for revues satirizing current events, trends, and personalities. He later composed incidental music for the short-lived 1976 Broadway production Legend, starring Elizabeth Ashley and F. Murray Abraham, which closed after five performances.

Goggin's early life experiences, including schooling by the Marywood Dominican Sisters and his days as a seminarian, influenced him to create his greatest success. A line of greeting cards featuring a nun offering tart quips caught on so quickly that Goggin decided to expand the concept into a cabaret show called The Nunsense Story, which opened for a four-day run at Manhattan's Duplex and remained for 38 weeks, encouraging him to expand the show into a full-length theater production.

What followed was Nunsense (1985), a commercial success off-Broadway, where it ran for 3,672 performances. By the time it closed, it had become an international phenomenon translated into 21 languages with more than 5,000 productions worldwide. Goggin penned six sequels: Nunsense 2: The Second Coming, Sister Amnesia's Country Western Nunsense Jamboree, Nuncrackers: The Nunsense Christmas Musical, Meshuggah-Nuns!, Nunsensations: The Nunsense Vegas Revue, and Nunset Boulevard. He also adapted the original show for an all-male cast: Nunsense A-Men! played in New York City to rave reviews in 1998.

Goggin also wrote the book, music, and lyrics for A One-Way Ticket To Broadway and Balancing Act.

Lorne (electoral district)

Lorne was an electoral district that existed in the District of Saskatchewan, North-West Territories from 1880 until 1888. The district was one of the first three electoral districts in the Territories. It was created by statutory proclamation in 1880. Of the three electoral districts proclaimed, it was the only one to actually have an election held in it.

Under the North-West Territories Act 1880 the district was mandated at its inception to return a single member to the North-West Territories Legislature under the first past the post electoral system. The district was named in the honour of then-Governor General, the Marquess of Lorne. Lorne toured through the North-West Territories just after the electoral district was created in 1881.

The electoral district ceased to exist following electoral redistribution before the 1888 North-West Territories general election was called. The redistribution was due to a population boom in the area caused by an influx of settlers. The electoral district was redistributed and split between the electoral districts of Batoche and Prince Albert. During the nine years the district existed, it returned three members through three elections who served roughly three-year terms.

Overview
The electoral district was one of three proclaimed by Lieutenant-Governor David Laird on November 13, 1880, under the authority of the North-West Territories Act. The other two electoral districts were Salisbury, named after the Marquess of Salisbury and Kimberley name after the Lord of Kimberley. Kimberley's contribution to the North-West Territories was transferring the Canadian Arctic Archipelago to Canada on September 1, 1880.

The electoral district was created with the provision to cover an area of 1000 sqmi and have a population of 1000 electors. The major population centres in the electoral district at the time of creation were Prince Albert, and Fort Carlton. The land around the district boomed due to a high rate of settlement in that period. The cause of this was due to the possibility of the Canadian Pacific transcontinental railway line being built through the area.

The North-West Territories political system used at this time was run by an early form of consensus government. Candidates stood for election independent of the political parties that exist in other provinces and territories and the federal level within Canada. The government had not yet developed to the point of being a Responsible government as the majority of members were appointed and not elected. The district was served by three representatives during its eight-year history.

1881
The 1881 by-election held on March 23, 1881 was a pivotal milestone towards Responsible Government being attained in the North-West Territories. The election marked the first time the provision of the North-West Territories Act 1880 that allowed for an electoral district to be proclaimed if an area the size of 1000 sqmi had 1000 residents had been activated. The election was conducted by voice vote, a qualified elector would tell the returning officer at a polling station who he was going to vote for and the results would be tallied. Under the terms of the Act eligible electors were males who had reached the age of majority, which was 21 years of age at that time. The act specified that electors must be bona fide males who were not aliens or unenfranchised Indians. Electors must also have resided in the territory for at least 12 months to the day of the writ being dropped.

The election commenced when Lieutenant-Governor David Laird dropped the writ on 1881. The election was contested by two candidates, Lawrence Clarke who was a fur trader and Chief Factor of the District of Saskatchewan for the Hudson's Bay Company. Clarke's opponent was Henry Stewart Moore a local French speaking businessman from Prince Albert who had been operating a flour mill since 1875.

Clarke held a big advantage in the campaign as he was supported by the Métis who had been looking for someone to locally represent them in the Legislature since the territory was formed in 1870. Clarke had also built his popularity and name recognition as a prominent fur trader. On election day Clarke carried the district winning a solid victory. He defeated Moore winning nearly 64% of popular vote. His resounding win would make him the first elected member to sit on the Northwest Territories council.

1883
Nearing the end of his term in office Clarke decided not to run for re-election in 1883. He was losing too much support due to his ties with the Hudson's Bay Company. The electorate suspected him of working under the influence of his office to locate important government offices on the land owned by the company. Two completely new candidates ran in the 1883 election, Captain Day Hort MacDowall and Dr. Andrew Everett Porter. Andrew Porter was famous for being the first registered private practicing medical doctor in the history of the Northwest Territories. He originally settled in Prince Albert in 1878. MacDowall campaigned by appealing to the concerns of the Métis who comprised the largest demographic in the district. He promised them that he would go to the Federal Government with their demands for better representation. He also helped win support by donating $1,100 out of pocket towards the construction of a new church for the community of Batoche. MacDowall's campaign efforts and donation proved to be very popular. MacDowall's appeal for representation translated into a landslide victory on election day. On June 5, 1883 he defeated Andrew Porter capturing nearly 70% of the popular vote. His win was the largest majority of the three elections held in the electoral district.

The official results for the race showed MacDowall won big in most of the polls, winning four out of five. Porter's support was concentrated in The Ridge where he won his only poll. MacDowall swept the south end of the district winning a shut out in the Métis communities of Duck Lake and St. Laurent de Grandin. Along with the shut out he held strong support in the rest of the riding, with his biggest single vote tally of votes coming from within the town of Prince Albert.

1885
The 1885 election in this district was held on September 17, 1885 as part of the 1885 North-West Territories election. This was the first major election held in the North-West Territories. The election grouped together a number of old districts that had been coming up for renewal on their three-year cycle and by-elections in new districts that were created by a population boom of settlers moving into the territory.

Incumbent MacDowall, had played a major role in subduing the North-West Rebellion at the end of his term in office. He would not run for re-election instead choosing to campaign for a seat in the House of Commons of Canada. Dr. Porter attempted to win a seat by running for office a second time. Porter was challenged by Captain Owen E. Hughes, a business man from Duck Lake. Hughes had been the captain of the Prince Albert militia unit that was disbanded by the Federal Government prior to the start of the North-West Resistance. Many of his former unit, including his lieutenant, Gabriel Dumont, were among the Metis who drove the loyalist forces back at the Battle of Fish Creek.

On election day, despite increasing his popular share of the vote over the 1883 election even with lower turnout, Porter was defeated by Hughes. The race was very tight and hotly contested nearly ending in a tie vote. Hughes captured the electoral district by a margin of eight votes winning just over 51% of the popular vote.

Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources

The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, an agency of the Kentucky Tourism, Arts and Heritage Cabinet, is responsible for the conservation of wildlife resources and for boating projects in the state. A commissioner appointed by the Fish and Wildlife Commission heads the department.

The District Commission System
Kentucky Fish and Wildlife is directed by a Commissioner, and overseen by nine District Commission Members. The Commissioner manages direction and operations of the agency. Commission Members serve as an oversight board, recommending fish, wildlife and boating regulations and statutes (pending final action by applicable legislative committees for regulations, or the legislature as a whole for statutes) and approving large-scale contracts such as major research projects. When a Commission Member's term is due to expire, a nomination election is held in the applicable district; five candidates for District Commission Member are nominated through votes cast by local hunters and anglers in each district, who must be licensed to hunt or fish. The five nominees receiving the most votes are sent to the Governor of Kentucky for appointment of one as District Commission Member. This system was created by Kentucky sportsmen to ensure that both managerial and financial control of the state's wildlife resources stayed out of political control.

Organization
The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife has gone through a great deal of organizational changes through the years. Today it consists of the Commissioner's office staff and seven divisions: Administrative Services; Wildlife; Fisheries; Law Enforcement; Information and Education; Engineering and Information Technology; and Marketing.

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Bettie Page/archive1

Bettie Page
A bit of a self-nom: I wrote the first version over a year ago, but many other people have made changes, & added more material to make it more than I could. I have sent this thru RfC, although this only received one comment, I made the changes suggested there. So now I ask: shall we label this a Featured Article? -- llywrch 23:46, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
 * I think the lead section should be re-written so that it encapsulates the most important points of the overall article. As it is now, half of the lead section is about the early party of Betty's life, which really isn't among the most noteworthy things about her. ike9898 01:47, July 25, 2005 (UTC)

 * Refer to peer review As was said above, the lead needs to be expanded upon, but also the Revival section is a little short. (As an offside note, putting an article through RfC isn't enough when it comes to feature articles; Peer review can also help people review, comment on and expand the article, and thus is a very helpful tool when it comes to FAC) --JB Adder | Talk 10:59, July 26, 2005 (UTC)
 * When I wrote "RfC", I meant peer review. Here is the response I received. More undoubtedly would have been useful -- & still would be -- but I worked what I had. -- llywrch 02:44, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Okay. I still, however, stand by my statement about the extremely short Revival section. Expand it please, if you can. --JB Adder | Talk 04:44, July 27, 2005 (UTC)
 * Query What's the basis for claiming "fair use" on the Dave Stevens illo? N. Caligon 03:14, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
 * It seems to me that fair use does not apply in this context. Were the article a review of Dave Stevens work, it would probably fit fair use criteria.  In this context, it seems much closer to a true copy-vio.  I'm going to take it out of the article as a precaution.  Feel free to replace if you clearly articulate why it is not a copyvio. ike9898 18:34, July 28, 2005 (UTC)
