Showcase (Canadian TV channel)

Showcase is a Canadian English-language discretionary specialty channel owned by Corus Entertainment. Launched on January 1, 1995, the channel primarily airs scripted and dramatic television series.

History
Licensed in 1994, Showcase was a venture between Alliance Communications (prior to its merger with Atlantis), the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and a number of smaller independent Canadian producers, and was intended to be a showcase for "the best of independently-produced movies, drama, comedy and mini-series from Canada and around the world", with limited content from the United States. It launched at midnight on January 1, 1995, with a short introductory montage and its first program, Monty Python's Life of Brian, shown as part of its program The Showcase Revue.

Showcase later spawned two digital television services, the male-oriented Action (formerly Showcase Action, which rebranded and relaunched as a Canadian version of Adult Swim in April 2019 ) and the more female-oriented Showcase Diva (which rebranded to a Canadian version of Lifetime in 2012). On December 19, 2006, Alliance Atlantis launched a high definition simulcast of Showcase, available through all major television providers in Canada.

After several acquisitions over the years, Alliance Atlantis gained full control of Showcase. On January 18, 2008, a joint venture between Canwest and Goldman Sachs Capital Partners known as CW Media bought Alliance Atlantis and gained AAC's interest in Showcase. Following its acquisition by Canwest, the channel's new management felt that Showcase's adult programming was alienating viewers and advertisers. On August 31, 2009, Showcase underwent a major rebranding, introducing a new programming lineup with a greater focus on hit dramas and films. At the same time, Showcase Diva was given a new look and Showcase Action was rebranded as simply Action. Canwest executives hoped that the new lineup would make the channel more attractive to viewers and advertisers.

While Showcase continues to air a thematically broad range of drama programming, its most recent successes, especially in original programming, have been with science fiction and fantasy programming. In 2010, a new original series, the supernatural crime drama Lost Girl, brought the channel its highest-rated series premiere ever with around 400,000 viewers. This was bested less than two years later by the debut of another original sci-fi series, Continuum, which had an average audience of 900,000 viewers. On October 27, 2010, ownership changed again as Shaw Communications gained control of Showcase as a result of its acquisition of Canwest and Goldman Sachs' interest in CW Media.

For the Fall 2013 season, Showcase unveiled a new tagline and branding campaign: "Character is Everything". The four-week marketing campaign was highlighted by promos narrated by characters from Showcase's series in first-person. An interactive website was created by Stitch Media. On it, viewers can create their own trailers for Showcase programming based on their own character.

On March 30, 2015, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the network's launch, Showcase underwent a brand refresh, including a new logo — a variation of the network's first logo from 1995 — and a new slogan: "Beyond Ordinary".

Programming
From the beginning, Showcase has aired reruns of Canadian series, with the lineup changing from year to year, along with foreign series and independent films. It's known for carrying numerous TV series from American cable channels such as TNT and Syfy. In recent years, the channel has also increasingly aired second window repeats of both premium and network television series (the latter primarily sourced from one of its sister television networks, Global TV).

Showcase has also aired first-run Canadian series, dubbed "Showcase Originals". In the past, these have included Paradise Falls, KinK, and Naked Josh. Another of these shows, the low-budget Trailer Park Boys became a bona fide national phenomenon, spawning DVDs, merchandising tie-ins, and three feature films (Trailer Park Boys: The Movie, Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day, and Trailer Park Boys: Don't Legalize It). The success of Trailer Park Boys led to the increasing prominence of edgy and risqué programming on Showcase (which at the time used the tagline "Television Without Borders"), including a block consisting entirely of its eroticism-themed shows known as Fridays Without Borders. In recent years, Showcase has partaken in international co-productions.

The channel was formerly subject to a condition of licence obligating it to air 100% Canadian content between 7:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. in the time zone of the originating feed (currently Eastern Time only). While some foreign programming did air in the late afternoon prior to this window, any foreign programming subject to watershed restrictions was required to air at 10:00 p.m. EST or later. For a few years beginning in fall 2005, when the channel was drawing most of its highest ratings for programming acquired from U.S. cable networks, Showcase promoted 10:00 p.m. as its flagship timeslot, even hiring branded taxis in major markets to drive people home for free by 10:00 p.m. In March 2015, the CRTC announced it would no longer enforce conditions of licence related to nature of service; shortly thereafter, Showcase began airing foreign content in the 7-10 p.m. EST window for the first time.

The channel previously operated two timeshifted feeds operating on Eastern and Pacific Time Zone schedules. The West feed was discontinued on August 24, 2012, along with that of TVTropolis; since then, much of the channel's primetime programming has been rebroadcast on a three-hour delay to facilitate consistent promotion to both time zones (for example, if a program broadcasts at 9:00 p.m. EST and rebroadcasts at midnight EST, it would be promoted as airing at "9:00 p.m. E/P").

MeiKing

MeiKing (めい・King) is a four-part erotic original video animation series set in a fantasy world. It is part of the Vanilla Series.

Story
The young shepherd Cain Asbell finds a vase inside a remote cave, containing the fairy Elise. Once released, Elise leads Cain to a remote cabin, where bandits had left Princess Charlotte tied up. Cain's rescue of the princess is rewarded with lordship over the realm of Norland and a chance at the hand of the beautiful Princess.

Main characters

 * Cain Asbell: The Lord of Norland, Cain is responsible for keeping order and protecting the land and its people. His kindness and purity of heart has earned him many allies and confidants, which leads Norland to victory over the Lord of Tedmond, Francis. He weds the Princess and becomes King of the entire land.
 * Princess Charlotte: Blonde-haired princess of the entire realm and heir to the throne of the kingdom of Phlaburg. On her 20th birthday, she is to marry the strongest Lord of the land. While Norland and Tedmond were neck-in-neck at the end, Norland ultimately becomes the strongest land, and Cain Asbell the King and the Princess' husband.
 * Francis: Francis, Lord of Tedmond and Cain Asbell’s main rival, is cruel and ambitious. He rules Tedmond with an iron fist and openly taunts his rival and others. However, his bravado and cruelty eventually lead to his downfall. Cain’s allies stop Francis and the Tedmond army and capture them.
 * Chiffon: A light-haired, half-elven priestess appointed to Cain Asbell to be his advisor during his reign as Lord of Norland. She has a distrust of humans due to being brutally treated by them as a young child and teenager. Her cold heart soon begins to warm as Cain earns her trust. Once Cain becomes king, she returns to her church, her duties fulfilled.
 * Tsubaki: A raven-haired swordswoman from the island of Yapan. She appears in Norland at the beginning of Cain Asbell's reign and challenges him to a duel. Being inexperienced in battle, Cain tries to avoid fighting her. She easily defeats him, but is soon challenged by "the Mysterious Masked Warrior" (Princess Charlotte). After the Princess' swift defeat, she gives Cain inspiration, which leads him to victory over Tsubaki. Tsubaki becomes Norland's Arms Trainer and strategist, whose excellent fighting skills saved the Wood of the Dwarves from the Kingdom of Tedmond and later lead Norland's people to safety from the Tedmond army. She becomes Captain of the Guard when Cain becomes king.
 * Tia: A pink-haired slave girl who was being sold by slave traders in Norland when Cain and Chiffon interfered. In gratitude for setting her free, Tia became Cain's maid and cook. It was due to her bravery that she was able to retrieve Tedmond's strategy plans, which eventually led to Norland's victory over Tedmond. She stays on as Cain's handmaid after he becomes king.
 * Sandra: The red-haired leader of the Emerald Fist, a bandit group from a distant land. Sandra was once the daughter of a Lord who was eventually betrayed and imprisoned. The new Lord sold Sandra into slavery, but nothing else is revealed about her childhood. She wears a patch over her right eye, for reasons unknown, and wields a belted zanbato blade. Even though she has taken everything of worth from Norland, it is through Cain Asbell's kindness that she redeems herself and helps Cain defeat Francis and the Tedmond army. She is pardoned by the newly crowned king, and leaves with her band of thieves to another country in order to start a new life.

Minor characters

 * Ann: Small, brown-haired, ambassador of the Dwarves, who is appointed to Norland after Tsubaki's victory over Bagwell in the contest for the Dwarven Woodlands. Ann is very apprehensive about the role, however, since her position is to always try to stay neutral in the war. However, at the climatic point when all seemed lost for Norland, Ann and the Dwarves come to their aid and become instrumental in the fall of Lord Francis and Norland's victory.
 * Bagwell: A warrior who, as a young man, was defeated by Tsubaki's father in dojo combat. Not willing to lose, he took Tsubaki hostage and killed Tsubaki's father. Bagwell then proceeded to rape and kill Tsubaki's mother. Tsubaki would later volunteer herself to face Bagwell in the contest between Tedmond and Norland to determine who would gain lordship of the Dwarven Woodlands. Through her superior skill, Tsubaki bests and kills Bagwell, winning the match for Norland.
 * Elise: The fairy that was rescued by Cain Asbell. Elise stays around early in Cain's reign as Lord of Norland, protecting the land. She shows herself less and less as time moves on, only when Cain is very troubled by a problem that could lead to a bad end for either himself, his allies, or the realm of Norland.
 * "The Mysterious Masked Warrior": A parody of the Magical Girl genre, the Masked Warrior (Princess Charlotte in disguise) uses quick moves and the power of "Love Escalation" in an attempt to beat Tsubaki. The effort fails, but her defeat leads Cain to ultimate victory over Tsubaki.

Son of Paleface

Son of Paleface is a 1952 American comedy Western film directed by Frank Tashlin and starring Bob Hope, Jane Russell, and Roy Rogers. The film is a sequel to The Paleface (1948). Written by Tashlin, Joseph Quillan, and Robert L. Welch, the film is about a man who returns home to claim his father's gold, which is nowhere to be found. Son of Paleface was released in the United States by Paramount Pictures on July 14, 1952.

Plot
Peter "Junior" Potter has graduated from Harvard and heads west to the western town of Sawbuck Pass to claim his father's fortune. Driving into town in a jalopy, wearing a comical striped suit jacket, he splashes mud all over a crowd of townspeople. He discovers to his horror that practically everyone in town claims to be owed money by his father, and that his father's treasure chest is empty.

Strutting around town in his dramatic red and white striped Harvard blazer, Junior stalls the townfolk for as long as he can, continually making allusions to his wealth. An old-timer, Eb, convinces him the gold does exist, but it is hidden.

In the saloon, he makes the acquaintance of a singing cowboy named Roy and a sexy saloon performer with the masculine name of Mike, who has to fend off Junior's persistent advances. In the bar, Mike and Roy sing "Buttons and Bows" while Potter raps about Harvard.

Junior tries to romance Mike and she drugs him. While he is asleep, she assumes her alter ego of "the Torch" and leads her gang in a night time raid. Junior provides a perfect alibi. The townsfolk have sabotaged Junior's car, but he improvises and adds cart wheels to escape the town. He drives across the desert with two vultures hitching a ride. He goes to the ghost town of Sterling City. He finds Eb dead in a barber's chair. Roy arrives and accuses him of murder. Junior disguises himself as Roy to try to escape on Trigger. Roy is a government agent with a Smith & Wesson Model 320 Revolving Rifle hidden in his guitar case, bent on capturing her.

The town is attacked by Indians. Junior is at first too scared to fight and Roy fights alone. Paleface's ghost appears and convinces him that Hell is fine. He grabs a gun and starts firing. Firing from the barber's chair, it starts to spin with shots going in random directions. One shot hits a moose head, where his father's gold begins to pour out. Mike arrives and helps in the fight. Mike and Junior escape on his improvised car.

Roy fights the gang in their hideout in an abandoned mine. With a bit of accidental help from Junior, they win the fight.

Junior is waiting for Mike when she comes out of prison (with four Junior Juniors). They say goodbye to Roy as Trigger has a triumphant rear-up silhouetted against the sunset.

Modern Girls

Modern Girls is a 1986 American comedy film directed by Jerry Kramer, starring Virginia Madsen, Daphne Zuniga, and Cynthia Gibb. Set during a single night in Los Angeles, it follows two young women who, while venturing through the city's nightclub scene, befriend their roommate's blind date.

Plot
Three women in their early twenties, Margo, Kelly, and Cece, are roommates living in Los Angeles working menial jobs by day, and by night they enjoy the vibrant and decadent nightlife of the city. Margo has a boring job in telemarketing, Cece gets fired from her job at a department store, while Kelly works in a pet store and is very good at selling pets, mainly thanks to her looks.

It is Friday night and the women are getting ready for a night out on the town. However, Margo and Cece soon discover that Kelly has taken Margo's car to go meet a DJ she is infatuated with in downtown Los Angeles. Luckily, Kelly's blind date for the night, the bookish Clifford—one of her many infatuated customers—arrives to pick her up, so Margo and Cece hitch a ride with him to the club where the DJ is working. Cliffie (as Cece calls him) reluctantly tags along a rollercoaster ride with them and learns how the women usually spend their nights out.

While at the club, popular rock star and MTV sensation Bruno X arrives, and Cece desperately manages to get his attention. A police raid on the club interrupts the two's encounter, forcing Cece and Margo to leave with Clifford. The three decide to stop at an after hours goth bar for drinks. Cece uses a hotel matchbook Bruno had to surmise where he is staying, and convinces Clifford, who bears a striking resemblance to Bruno, to impersonate him, resulting in Clifford being forced into shooting a music video on the street.

Meanwhile, Kelly has drinks at Sharkey's bar, where another DJ named Milo offers her drugs. Cece, Margo, and Clifford go there to retrieve her, and find her inebriated and surrounded by a group of lecherous men, but manage to save her from what appears to be an impending gang rape. When a rainstorm begins, Clifford stops to close the top of his convertible and accidentally blows out his tires on traffic spikes in a parking lot. The group embark on foot along Hollywood Boulevard. A disenchanted Clifford is surprised to learn through conversation that Margo majored in comparative literature in college.

Clifford borrows a car from a driving school where he works as a driving instructor, and the group visit the exclusive Club VooDoo, which Clifford manages to infiltrate with the women after the bouncers assume him to be Bruno X. In the bathroom, a now sober Kelly tells Margo that she will tend to Clifford, to which Margo responds evasively. While Kelly dances with an inebriated Clifford, Cece learns from Marsalis, an acquaintance of Bruno X, that he is obsessed with her and has been searching for her since the club raid earlier that night. Marsalis tells Cece that Bruno has a 7:00 a.m. flight booked at the Santa Monica Airport.

A food fight breaks out in Club VooDoo when Clifford attempts to stop Kelly from leaving with Ray, one of her admirers. Kelly flees with Ray, leaving Cece, Margo, and Clifford on their own again. The three chase after Ray's Jeep and attack him when he becomes physically violent with Kelly. The four visit the police station after, where Kelly files a police report against him. After, Clifford teases Margo, and the two kiss.

The group drive Cece to the airport as dawn approaches, and she is reunited with Bruno, who asks her to accompany him on tour. A flattered Cece tells him that she would miss her friends too much, and instead offers him her phone number. As Bruno leaves, Clifford asks the three women what their plans are for the evening, and they playfully attack him.

Production
Principal photography of Modern Girls began in Los Angeles on April 1, 1986.

 * Depeche Mode - "But Not Tonight". Written by Martin Gore. The song was released as a promo single in February 1986 and later in 12" format in the United States only, accompanied by a music video featuring footage from Modern Girls to help promote the movie.

I'd like to discuss the recent changes to the page. Though it may be redundant to have two photos of the lighthouse, I believe a photo is better than a scanned postcard--it has truer colors, for one thing. I'd suggest that, if one photo were to be removed as "redundant," it should be the postcard scan--and the contemporaneous photo should remain. Comments?--RattBoy 10:55, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Marine Industries

Marine Industries Limited (MIL) was a Canadian ship building, hydro-electric and rail car manufacturing company, in Sorel-Tracy, Quebec, with a shipyard located on the Richelieu river about 1 km from the St. Lawrence River. It employed up to 8,500 people during the World War II support effort.

Opened in 1937 by the Simard family after taking over the smaller Manseau Shipyard, the yards early contracts were tugs and coastal tankers used on the Great Lakes and Canada's Atlantic coast. In the 1940s, MIL built 11 British Corvettes, beginning a growth as one of the most significant exporter of ships in Canada's shipbuilding history, with exports to Britain, France, USA, Venezuela, Greece, Holland, Indonesia, Cuba and Poland. This required a major modernisation of the yard in the early 1960s plus the growth of a significant in-house design capacity to create what became known as MARINDUS designs, from which 45 ships were built of 9 unique designs for coasters, fishing vessels, tankers and cargo liners. MIL also began building railroad cars in 1957, with production focused mainly on flat cars, gondolas and covered hoppers for the domestic and export markets and then opened a Hydro-Electric Division in the 1960s that designed and built generators and turbines for numerous projects in Quebec (Churchill Falls, Outardes, Manicouagan, La Grande etc.) with smaller ones in Ecuador and India.

In 1986 the federal government asked Quebec to rationalize its shipyards, which saw MIL merge with Davie Shipbuilding in Lauzon; the Sorel shipyard was called M.I.L. Tracy (for Tracy, Quebec) and the Lauzon shipyard was called M.I.L. Lauzon.

Not long after the merger, the new company MIL Davie Shipbuilding closed the Sorel shipyard (in 1988) along with the Versatile Vickers shipyard in Montreal, resulting in a total loss of 1,700 jobs. The shipyard buildings were demolished, drydock still visible and Structure D'Acier DMR Incorporated now operating at the site.

Ships built
Starting with the largest marine railway in North American in the early 1900s, MIL went on to build numerous key vessels to earn a special place in Canada's shipbuilding history, by building Canada's first all-welded steel ship (1935), Canada's first all-welded aluminum boats in 1950, 13 Liberty-style ships a year during the war effort (1941-3), largest diesel-electric icebreaking railcar ferry (Abegweit 1947), the first icebreaker to sail through the NW Passage both ways (Labrador 1954), the record-breaking all aluminum Bras d'Or Hydrofoil hull (for DeHaviland 1967) and the then largest floating crane in N.America (1961) plus several record breaking fishing boats and the extensive MARINDUS series (noted above) for export. The Sorel shipyard was also responsible for numerous Royal Canadian Navy, Canadian Coast Guard and CN Marine vessels as well as some 300 commercial ships of over 50 different types. Of these, only ships built for various Canadian Government services are listed below.

Whangarei Airport

Whangārei Airport is an airport 4 NM to the south east of Whangārei city, in the suburb of Onerahi, on the east coast of Northland in the North Island of New Zealand. The airport has a single terminal with two gates.

History
The first aerodrome in Whangārei was located on Pohe Island in the upper reaches of Whangārei Harbour. Sir Charles Kingsford Smith's aircraft, the Southern Cross, landed on Pohe Island in 1928. This airstrip was not of high quality due to it being built on boggy reclaimed land, so a more suitable site was required. Another site was considered, at Kensington Park, but in May 1939 the current site was opened at Onerahi.

With the outbreak of World War II, immediately after the establishment of the airfield, the airport was taken over by the RNZAF to serve as a training base which became RNZAF Station Onerahi. Flight Lieutenant "Lou" Gates became one of the station commanders. Pilots practised bombing raids on the nearby Matakohe Island and Rat Island. The airport was established with three grass runways. No. 20 Squadron RNZAF was formed there in August 1942 with Hawker Hind biplanes, personnel and aircraft provided from No. 6 (AC) Squadron RNZAF at Milson, Palmerston North. The squadron was disbanded in July 1943 but reformed elsewhere later in the war. The station was reduced to two runways (06/24 and 32/14) shortly after the war and converted for public use. Some of the old airforce barracks are still present today, having been converted into residential properties.

National Airways Corporation (NAC) began twice-daily commercial flights between Whangārei and Auckland in 1948 using Lockheed Electra 10-seat aircraft. NAC replaced the Electra in March 1950 with small de Havilland Dominie 6-seat aircraft as the airport was too small to handle the new Lockheed Lodestar. The de Havilland's small size meant it serviced Whangārei with six return flights daily from Auckland. 10,148 people flew to and from Whangārei in 1950. The 06/24 runway was upgraded and sealed in December 1963 to its current length of 1097m, which allowed NAC to commence commercial flights with the much larger DC3s. A new airport terminal was built on the northern side of the main runway to cater for future growth. A new control tower was also built. The larger capacity of the DC3 meant Whangārei was serviced only twice-daily to Auckland, with some flights continuing north onwards to Kaikohe or other Northland airports.

In August 1970, NAC replaced its DC-3 service to Whangārei with larger Fokker Friendships. Northern Districts Aero Club introduced a twice-daily return air taxi service to compete and provide additional frequency to Auckland on each Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The service, which operated under the name of Executive Air Taxis, started on 21 August 1970 using a newly imported Piper Cherokee Six. This service proved to be popular and was expanded by the end of 1974 to offer a twice-daily Monday to Friday morning and afternoon return services to Auckland. Northern Districts Aero Club was able to fund new clubrooms and a hangar in 1977.

In 1988, NAC's successor Air New Zealand announced the withdrawal of its twice-daily Friendship service in favour of its newly purchased subsidiary Eagle Airways offering up to five Embraer Bandeirante flights a day. This led to the decline and eventual end of the Northern Districts Aero Club scheduled flights to Auckland. The control tower was closed in 1988 as the airport was deemed too small to continue the service.

In 1991, a new airline, Ansett New Zealand, began flying to Whangārei in competition with Air New Zealand. Both airlines flew Bandeirantes, with Ansett also flying Dash 8s. The terminal was upgraded due to this growth.

In September 1998, Ansett New Zealand withdrew its service. To help meet the demand for additional seats, Eagle Airways increased its services by 14 per week to bring the number of Bandeirante flights to Whangārei to 69. This compared with Air New Zealand's previous service of 14 Friendship flights a week.

In 2001, Eagle Airways purchased 16 new Beechcraft 1900D aircraft and begun using this aircraft on all routes, retiring the Bandeirante aircraft. It was able to introduce new services with the improved aircraft and in 2002 begun direct flights linking Whangārei to Wellington. This service operated twice every week day (until 2009 when it was reduced to one) and was Eagle Airways' longest regular flight service at 626 km (90 minutes).

In 2007, Sunair begun daily air services between Whangārei, Tauranga, Rotorua and Napier. This service was discontinued in 2009. Sunair returned to Whangārei in 2015 with a Whangārei to Whitianga via Claris service. This service ceased at the end of 2015 after low patronage. Sunair currently operates scheduled services from Whangarei to Great Barrier and Tauranga, as well as providing flight training.

In 2008, Salt Air begun an "xpress" service between Kerikeri, Whangārei and Auckland. These flights landed at North Shore and transferred passengers to Auckland CBD within 60 minutes of leaving Whangārei. This service was sold in 2012 to Flight Hauraki and ceased shortly after.

A runway upgrade in 2009 allowed Bombardier Q300 and weight restricted ATR 72 aircraft to use the airport.

In 2011, a Mount Cook Airline ATR 72 landed at Whangārei Airport becoming the first of its kind to do so. The aircraft was on charter from Gisborne.

From April 2015, Air New Zealand removed all Beech 1900D flights from the Whangārei schedule as well as dropping the direct to Wellington service. Flights to and from Auckland were taken over by larger Q300 aircraft and it became the sole aircraft type flying to Whangārei for Air New Zealand.

Airport growth and future
In 2009, airport passenger and flight numbers increased steadily to reach a peak of ten return flights to Auckland and two return flights to Wellington on weekdays. This resulted in the airport's capacity reaching around 140,000 passenger movements per year. However this growth stalled due to global economic downturn and capacity and frequency subsequently reduced.

A project costing $1.5 million to create a 30m takeoff starter extension and reseal the runway was completed in April 2009. The upgrade allowed larger aircraft to land and allowed Air New Zealand, through its subsidiary airline Air Nelson, to trial flights with its Bombardier Q300 aircraft. Daily flights from Auckland commenced in August 2013, growing in time to be the predominant aircraft used on the Auckland route before becoming the sole aircraft used in 2014. In August 2011, the previously weight restricted ATR 72 aircraft made its first commercial service to Whangārei Airport on charter from Gisborne, however the aircraft type has not returned since.

On 30 June 2015 an upgrade to the airport costing $1.02 million was announced. The aircraft taxiway was expanded to accommodate larger aircraft as well as improvements to pathways outside the terminal and the taxi stand. A second airport entry was constructed and the car park was extended with a barrier arm installed. Improvements within the terminal included more seating for passengers, upgraded toilets and an expanded internal baggage claim area. Work began in July 2015 with the last of the upgrades completed by mid-September 2016. The work enabled the airport to be kept to an acceptable and modern standard for the next 15 years when possible relocation of the airport may take place.

Whangārei District Council is investigating moving the airport as the current site is too small to expand significantly to meet requirements for larger aircraft. A runway length of between 1200m and 1350m is needed to accommodate aircraft likely to be in use beyond the next ten to fifteen years. A site at Mata, south of Whangārei was considered but deemed too far from central Whangārei to be viable. Another site at the former location of Port Whangārei was mooted in 2014 but a move is not considered likely due to operational requirements and cost.

On 5 December 2020, Whangārei District Council announced it had paid $7 million for a piece of land northwest of Whangārei as a possible future site for a new airport. This land was purchased as a way of “future-proofing” council assets for relocating the airport when the time arises. In March 2021 the Whangārei District Council was investigating three possible sites, and seeking $150 million in government funding for the move.

Airport services
The airport has a modern air-conditioned terminal building with free wifi and a cafeteria (called Skyline Cafe), which services Air New Zealand. The terminal includes a glass walk-through tunnel to protect passengers from the weather when accessing the tarmac parking gates 1 and 2. The airport terminal has secure parking and three rental car companies.

Whangārei District Airport no longer has an Aero Club after a drop in membership and private flying. Flight training using micro-light aircraft is still available through the Whangārei Flying Club, which merged with the Northern District Aeroclub when it closed down. General aviation training is available through Sunair. Helicopter operators Skywork and Twin Coast Helicopters both operate from the airport. One aircraft maintenance facility, Northland Aeromaintenance Ltd, is available, which conducts maintenance for aircraft across Northland. Private jets are catered for when they arrive, as well as larger group charters. BP provide Jet A1 and AVGAS on field for aviators. Since 2006, an AWIB (Aerodrome Weather Information Broadcast) system has been broadcast on 119.8.

Stranahan Theater

The Stranahan Theater & Great Hall, commonly known as the Stranahan Theater is a 2,424-seat concert hall located in Toledo, Ohio. The facility was constructed in 1969 and until the mid-1990s was called Masonic Auditorium because attached to the west side of the theater is a structure owned and occupied by several Masonic organizations. Part of the construction and maintenance costs have been funded by the Stranahan Foundation. Around the time of the name change, theater management began seeking more broad-based community funding.

The theater foyer is 3,000 sqft and the adjacent Great Hall features 10,000 sqft of meeting space. The property contains parking for 1,200 cars.

Fulfilling its primary usage as a concert venue, the Stranahan Theater presents approximately 170 theater events a year.

Avi Nimni

Avi Nimni (אבי נמני; born 26 April 1972) is an Israeli former professional footballer and Maccabi Tel Aviv's highest ever scorer. He is regarded as one of Maccabi Tel Aviv's greatest players ever. Until 2006, he served as the captain of the Israel national team. His number 8 shirt has become so symbolic (despite him wearing the number sixteen as a youth, because Uri Malmilian wore the number 8) that Maccabi Tel Aviv has retired the number at the end of his active football career.

Early years
Nimni was approximately seven years old when he joined Maccabi Tel Aviv's training facility in Kiryat Shalom. Nimni played for every Maccabi youth team and also featured for the Israeli national youth sides.

At 17 he played his first game in the Liga Leumit and was a regular for Maccabi's first team at 18. Whilst at Maccabi Nimni experienced much success becoming one of their most important players during this period.

In 1998, he inherited the Maccabi captaincy when the previous long-serving captain Nir Klinger retired due to injury. Klinger went on to become assistant coach at Maccabi.

Going abroad
Between 1996 and 2001, Maccabi suffered dark times on the field winning only the Toto Cup in 1998. This was due partly to the absence of Nimni who was transferred in 1997 to Atlético Madrid. However, Nimni's time at the club was blighted by injury, and he returned to Maccabi after just seven appearances.

A year later Nimni was loaned out to Derby County. Although Nimni helped set up a goal on his debut against Arsenal and also scored away to Everton, in what subsequently proved to be a handful of appearances, Derby decided not to purchase Nimni outright. They instead signed fellow loanee Giorgi Kinkladze to ensure they had no more than three non-EU first-team players, and Nimni returned to Maccabi.

2000–2001
In 2000, the former Israel national coach, Shlomo Sharf, became Maccabi's coach. Sharf, well known for his temper, commented after the second game of the season in Maccabi's 2–2 draw with Hapoel Haifa saying "did you even see Nimni? I'm sure he didn't play! If it wasn't for the fans I would have substituted him at half-time". The next day Nimni spoke to Channel Five, replying "there is a normal way of saying things, not in a humiliating barbaric way". Sharf wanted to sell Nimni, however the chairman Lonny Herzikowicz declined the request, and Sharf then resigned from his post.

Nir Klinger
At the beginning of the 2002 season, Nir Klinger was appointed Head Coach of Maccabi. As a former Maccabi player he was well respected by the fans. He was nicknamed "The Soul" for playing in any situation despite being injured on many occasions.

Following Maccabi's 3–0 loss at home to Hapoel Be'er Sheva they went to play title holders Maccabi Haifa in the 14th fixture of the season. Klinger shocked the nation by naming Nimni on the bench, and replaced him with Baruch Dego. After an incredible game Maccabi emerged as 3–2 victors. Nimni remained on the bench for the remainder of the season only to watch Dego pick up the player of the season accolade.

After the 28th fixture, Nimni gave an interview to a radio show claiming, "players told me that, if I played we would have had 15 points more". On hearing this Klinger sent him to the stands dropping him from the squad. During the 30th game of the season Dego broke his ankle with the fixture against Beitar Jerusalem looming. At the time Maccabi were in first place. They had exactly the same points as Maccabi Haifa and Hapoel Tel Aviv but had a better goal difference of the three teams. Beitar took the lead after 32 minutes and doubled their score just a minute later. Beitar went into the half-time break 2–1 up after an own goal a minute before. Maccabi were watching the Championship slip from their grasp. However Nimni had other ideas and scored two goals leading Maccabi to a 3–2 win.

In the 32nd game, Maccabi played Bnei Yehuda and Nimni scored a hat-trick and Maccabi won 5–0. After the match in an interview a reporter asked Klinger about Nimni, Klinger replied "do you want it in a phrase or a song; Avi Nimni is the king". In the final game of the season Maccabi faced Hapoel Petah Tikva. 40,000 spectators saw Nimni score leading Maccabi to a 3–0 win. Consequently, they lifted the Championship. Despite being dropped earlier in the season Nimni finished the season as Maccabi's top goalscorer with 14 goals.

However, not everything was rosy for Nimni. It was reported that he and teammate Tal Banin (ex-Brescia) had a bust-up. The team was divided between "Avi Nimni supporters" and "Tal Banin supporters". Nimni, Banin and Klinger all denied the reports that any altercation had occurred.

On 13 August 2003, Klinger called a press conference to be covered by all the media. He issued a statement along the lines that "the dispute between Nimni and Banin is destroying every good part in Maccabi, dividing the team, and causing nothing but anger between the players". He forced both Nimni and Banin out of the club.

The fans were outraged and for two years they came in black shirts as a sign of grief and holding signs saying: "8 is in our blood, Avi Nimni will always be in Maccabi". The fans were not satisfied despite winning the Cup and taking second place in the league resulting in the qualification to the UEFA Champions League for the first time ever.

After being kicked out of Maccabi, Nimni joined Beitar Jerusalem. He played at the Teddy Stadium for two years scoring 20 goals.

After two years of exile Nimni was brought back to Maccabi in 2005 by Nir Klinger, who resigned later that year.

Retirement
Nimni is considered as Maccabi's talisman and the fan's favourite. He started his comeback season on the right foot, by scoring the winning goal in the opening match of the 2005–06 season. After a bad year when Maccabi only won the State Cup, Nimni moved forward to another year with the yellow side.

The 2006–07 season was a pretty good year to Avi surely better than the previous. Avi scored in that season 10 goals with his actually last year as a player. Nimni said that he want to retire in the end of the season but a loss to the fierce rivals in the local derby Hapoel Tel Aviv made him consider his retirement and he decided to stay for another year.

Nimni's last year started with a loss the Andorra Santa Coloma. On 25 August 2007, Nimni scored his last goal for the Israeli Premier league on the second fixture versus Maccabi Petah Tikva and became the third all-time scorer. After that Avi was injured in the Toto Cup that put him out for the rest of the year.

On 17 May 2008, Nimni played his last match when he entered on the 90-minute to the crowd's roar; some of the people even cried. After Nimni retired, Maccabi Tel Aviv decided to retire his shirt, too.

Nimni is Maccabi's all-time top goalscorer, having scored 174 goals. He has scored 194 goals overall in the league, and he is now the number three all-time top goal scorer in Israeli football.

O'Connor and Gonzales

Looking at the Alberto Gonzales article, I was stunned to find a picture of Justice Sandra Day O'Connor gesturing to Gonzales almost as if she passing her position to him. This is particularly stunning to me in light of the speculation about whether George W. Bush will nominate Gonzales to succeed the retiring O'Connor. This appears in the articles Sandra Day O'Connor and Alberto Gonzales. The picture is in the public domain, as it was taken by a White House staffer.

 * Even with higher res (which is badly needed), I'm not convinced this picture fits the bill. Clearly the rationale for featuring would be that the picture is unusual in that it shows the exiting justice "welcoming" the new one -- at least, I can't see anything about the picture other than that content which would make it featurable.  I think the nom is premature, in that we don't know yet if Gonzales is even a nominee, let alone whether or not he will be confirmed.  Even if he is, I have to ask if this is all that unusual.  SC Justices must surely be pictured with lawyers, judges, and other government officials in the course of their duties to the Court -- isn't it likely that we could produce a photo of O'Connor with other candidates as well?  I just don't feel that this is a photo whose time has come, and I think a good explanation of the rationale for nominating it is important if it is to receive widespread support.

 * Ruzanna Khetchian and Russell Peters - Hip Hop Evolution.jpg

Sources for when Peters divorce was finalized.
I'm assuming that the 2012 year was added because of an assumption that filing for divorce = divorce is legally finalized. Which isn't true at all.

I've found some sources published months after he announced his divorce in early 2012, and they don't specifically state when his divorce was finalized. They still mention that he was going through the divorce process. Yahoo! news article from June 2012: "Even though he's going through a divorce"... Another June 2012 article from CityNews Vancouver: "Canadian comedy giant Russell Peters says he and Monica Diaz are on amicable terms as they go through a divorce."

Maybe the divorce was finalized later in 2012, or maybe it was in 2013 or 2014. The current sources provided on his page do not seem to provide a clear timeline or exact date on when everything was finalized. Clear Looking Glass (talk) 04:52, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * You might not always find such things. That's just something the article will be without.  But if you can find it, more power to you.   Mr. C.C. Hey yo!I didn't do it! 19:08, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * - That appears to be the case. I have not found any source that confirm when the divorce was actually finalized. I just wanted to start this discussion because the 2012 year which was previously added may not be true. I'm assuming the divorce happened eventually because he's since re-married (and AFAIK, polygamous marriages are not allowed in either Canada or the United States). Clear Looking Glass (talk) 21:34, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Not sure why polygamy was brought up when he is indeed divorced. Sourcing when the divorce was finalized is proving to be a challenge.   Mr. C.C. Hey yo!I didn't do it! 02:50, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
 * - I mentioned polygamy as an off-tangent point. Sorry if it was confusing. Because we currently do not know when the divorce was finalized, it could've ended in 2012 or as recently as several months ago; its anyone's guess without reliable sources. But since he has re-married, the divorce was obviously finalized, but in an uncertain year. Clear Looking Glass (talk) 07:23, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Polygamy still happens. In fact, in 2020, Utah reduced it from a felony to the equivalent of a traffic ticket.  Again, not everything will be able to be sourced.   Mr. C.C. Hey yo!I didn't do it! 07:56, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
 * - I had no clue about that, please pardon my ignorance and disregard my points about polygamy. I guess we'll just leave the infobox marriage info and divorce sources as it is. Clear Looking Glass (talk) 08:01, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Breaking References
I just wanted to alert you to the fact that you are breaking references with edits like this. In Knuckles' article, try clicking the [3] reference at the end of the following paragraph near the top:

"Knuckles' name is derived from the four knuckles, two on each hand, which are actually sharp spikes. His task since birth has been to   guard the Master Emerald, normally located on Angel Island. According to official Sonic Team polls, Knuckles placed fourth in the   favorite character poll, first in the third favorite character poll, and third in the character who should appear more."

You'll find that it doesn't work! This is because you removed the references location. If you want to have static external links instead of references, please be sure to fix this problem. -- RattleMan 09:12, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent contribution removed content from Talk:Super Smash Bros. (series). Please be careful when editing pages and do not remove content from Wikipedia without a good reason, which should be specified in the edit summary. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Moonriddengirl 22:36, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Hi. Got your message about Talk:Super Smash Bros. (series). If the conversation is no longer relevant, that might be a good reason to archive it. If it isn't applicable to improving the page, it might be okay to delete the conversation, but that's a debated practice and certainly requires explanation at least in the Help:Edit summary. It would probably also be a good idea to mention what you've done in the talk page to make it easier later for any editors who object and want to retrieve the information at its last save. :) --Moonriddengirl 23:31, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your uploads and edits. One of your edits I noticed was a change from March 14 to 14 March on Johan Paulik. Please note that it isn't necessary to change the order of the date--and it will have no effect on how the article looks on the wiki. Dates are placed inside links so that the Wiki software can recognise them and display them in the form set up by the viewer in his preferences. I have my preferences set to display day-month, which is the convention in my country, and others have them set to display month-day, the convention in some other countries. The date can be entered in either format but I will see it in day-month format. --Tony Sidaway Talk 11:23, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

Susan Jacks

Susan Jacks ( Pesklevits; 19 August 1948 – 25 April 2022) was a Canadian singer-songwriter and record producer.

Career
Susan Pesklevits was born on 19 August 1948 to a family of eight children in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Her family moved to British Columbia when she was nine, settling in Haney. She began her professional career at 15 when she was asked to be a regular performer on the national Canadian television show, Music Hop.

She also appeared on several other national television shows and regularly did live performances in the British Columbia and Alberta areas. She recorded her first singles with two other well known Vancouver performers, Howie Vickers and Tom Northcott, under the name of "The Eternal Triangle".

In 1966, 18-year-old Susan Pesklevits asked Terry Jacks to accompany her on guitar for an upcoming appearance. Susan performed a small number of dates with Terry accompanying her on guitar. They decided to add Craig McCaw on lead guitar and, although she continued to make various solo television appearances, Susan made the decision to stop performing live as a solo artist, left the "Eternal Triangle" and dedicated her time to the newly formed trio. The trio used the name "Powerline" for a number of months before settling on the name "The Poppy Family". Susan and Terry married in 1967. Craig McCaw introduced Satwant Singh to the group and he soon joined the trio on tablas.

The group began recording as "The Poppy Family featuring Susan Jacks" and had a number of hits from 1968 through the early 1970s. "Which Way You Goin' Billy?", originally called "Which Way You Goin' Buddy?", was written from a male perspective but was re-written at Susan's suggestion to be sung by a female. Susan's brother Billy's name was chosen to replace "Buddy" and the song went on to sell nearly four million copies worldwide, hitting No. 1 in Canada, No. 1 in Cashbox and No. 2 in Billboard in the United States. "That's Where I Went Wrong" and "Where Evil Grows" also charted well on Billboard. They consequently followed up with numerous hits in Canada.

Terry released Satwant Singh and Craig McCaw from the group in 1970 and, although the name Poppy Family was still used, Susan essentially became a solo artist, with the exception of one or two duets with Terry. She often performed Poppy Family hits on television shows including Rollin' On The River, The Bobby Darin Show and The George Kirby Special.

In 1972, the Poppy Family name was dropped and Susan and Terry worked together in the studio to record their solo albums. Susan's album was titled I Thought of You Again and Terry's titled Seasons in the Sun. Both albums were released in 1973 after Susan left the marriage. The title song on Susan's album earned her a Juno nomination for Canadian Female Vocalist of the Year while Terry was nominated as Male Vocalist of the Year for his album. Susan continued to have hits and other Juno nominations in Canada with songs including "I Thought of You Again", "Forever", "Evergreen", "You Don't Know What Love Is", "I Want You To Love Me", "Build A Tower", and "Love Has No Pride". With the release of her Dream album in 1975, Susan was nominated for her single "Anna Marie".

In 1976, Jacks signed with Polydor Records. Her 1980 Ghosts album garnered her a Juno nomination with her single "All The Tea in China". In 1982 her Forever album was released. As a solo artist, she appeared regularly on tour as well as television shows including The Bobby Vinton Show, The Alan Thicke Show and numerous talk shows. She was also featured in a special called Caught in the Act and a Christmas special at Whistler Mountain.

In 1977, Susan met Canadian Football League player Ted Dushinski. They married in 1980 and had a son, Thad. The family moved to Nashville, Tennessee in 1983 where she recorded the Juno-nominated song, "Another Woman's Man". She was voted the best new country artist in Oklahoma for her song "Tall Dark Stranger". She became a staff songwriter for a Nashville publishing company and had several songs recorded, including a children's song on a Grammy nominated album entitled "Snuggle Up". Jacks later co-wrote and sang "Looking For Love" for the movie The Last Chance Cafe.

In 2004, Jacks returned to Canada when her husband was diagnosed with lung cancer. He died on 24 October 2005. Upon returning, she was told she was in kidney failure and performed on a limited basis as her strength deteriorated. In 2010, Jacks received a kidney transplant donated by her brother Bill. A few months after the transplant, Jacks was again on stage and, on 17 April 2011, performed a benefit concert for the Kidney Foundation of Canada to raise awareness of the need for organ donation.

Jacks was inducted into the BC Entertainment Hall of Fame on 27 June 2010. Her album Dream, originally released in 1976, but abruptly removed from the market, was re-released in 2015. In 2016, Jacks was hospitalized with life-threatening complications from kidney failure. She recovered, and planned to return to the studio to record a new album in 2018.

Death
Jacks died as a result of kidney disease–related infections at Surrey Memorial Hospital on 25 April 2022, at the age of 73. She was survived by a son, five brothers, a sister and two half-brothers.

Mill show
Neologism that doesn't appear to have been picked up in common use. Hard to find information on Google since irrelevant pages come up, but I have tried searching "mill show" in combination with shows from that list, and I haven't come up with anything. – flamurai (t) 23:53, July 14, 2005 (UTC) Related category up for deletion at Categories for deletion/Log/2005 July 14. – flamurai (t) 01:21, July 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is actually a widely used term within the industry. Walk into any TV station or TV production company in North America and they will know what it is. As for Google is filled with so much garbage searching with it is practically useless in most cases. Spotteddogsdotorg 01:24, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment: It's a true vote all right because any search engine will confirm that the term does not even seem to exist. Enter "mill show" + television and then filter out things like puppy, rumor, "run-of-the-mill", and a Canadian show called The Mill Show, and you are still only left with a handful of irrelevant hits .  Further comment: Any look at User:Spotteddogsdotorg's history will show a history of creating nonsense articles (like anchor bimbo) and pushing a peculiar POV or possibly a vendetta against certain TV anchors.

 * Delete very hard to find information on this subject, however, the original show was renamed Made in Canda with a US title of The Industry, the idea behind the name was it was a "run-of-the-mill show", which I feel most of you would understand better.

Talk:Legal research

Style and formatting questions
Here are some references to why the style and formatting changes by myself, Dr. Gangrene, and BD2412 were done, and why the page should still have {{cleanup-tone}} on it. JesseW 23:53, 14 July 2005 (UTC) I look forward to your responses to this. I shall leave the article as it is for 3 days, to give you time to comment, then, edit it to conform with the guidelines stated above. Thanks for inducing me to read over the Style guidelines and for your contributions to Wikipedia! JesseW 00:25, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Spaces after headings: optional.
 * I prefer it without them, as it conserves screen space. JesseW 23:53, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
 * links like internet or process: don't link "plain English words".
 * Putting external links inline: "This is discouraged in most situations."
 * Piped links(like books ): "Endings are blended into the link. / Preferred style is to use this instead of a piped link, if possible."
 * Use short sentences and lists: e.g. making "1) blah 2) blah" into (wikicode)# blah newline # blah.
 * I can't find somewhere that says that using "you" is better than using "one", but I belive it nonetheless. JesseW 00:25, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Quest for gender-neutral pronouns with regards to "he or she" vs rephrasing, i.e. "the current".
 * Although your points on style are valid, I think the problems with this article go much deeper. This is more of a "how-to" guide than an encyclopedia article.  It really needs a substantive rewrite to provide more of a description of what legal research is, and why people do it, than tips on how to do it.  --Russ Blau (talk) 16:05, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I agree, and various people do intend to do such a rewrite eventually. JesseW, the juggling janitor 23:37, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

As one of the comments noted above, I wrote this as much as a "how to" guide as an encyclopedia article for the classes I teach. However, I agree that a definition of legal research would greatly improve the article. I added a definition of legal research to better set the stage for the article, but I deliberately wrote in a more informal tone to make a difficult subject more accessible to the layperson (which I thought was the purpose of the Wikipedia project). I used links in the text of the article so that those who wanted to use it for a resource guide could print it out and have the links in the context of the discussion more in the tradition of a library pathfinder. I hope the changes I made improves the article somewhat. Yjones.

I would also add that another major problem with this article is that it's about how to do legal research in the US when it should be about legal research in a global sense.--PullUpYourSocks 14:52, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Error in Article
In section 2, Judicial Branch Sources, the article says "The decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States are "binding" on all of the courts in the United States." This is not accurate as written. Decisions of the United States Supreme Court are binding with respect to federal law, and are binding on Federal Courts with respect to federal law issues. But the courts of each of the states are able to reach their own conclusions regarding the interpretation of their own laws and their own constitutions. As long as the state courts do not attempt to restrict the powers of the Federal Government, and do not attempt to uphold state laws which infringe on rights protected by the U.S. Constitution, State Courts can disagree with the U.S. Supreme Court. Similarly, lower Federal Courts can sometimes enforce state laws (in appropriate cases) which go beyond what the U.S. Supreme court would do under federal law.

 * This has been clarified by quoting a discussion of the Supreme court from a legal research textbook.

Suggestion for linkage
[] (Has UML been applied to law, yet?)

Process of finding legal documents
Section "What is legal research?" says This article focuses on the process of finding legal documents issued by courts, legislatures and other government entities in the United States. I would say that this process is not typical to the United States, but is probably conducted in most western-style nations. I would therefore suggest to remove "in the United States". --Invenio 09:21, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Inappropriate deletions
Accurate information about Google Scholar should not be deleted from this article. If there is a valid reason for the deletion, please discuss it here. If not, the content should be restored and left alone. Please, let's avoid edit warring and three-revert rule issues. , please join this conversation if you disagree with the restoration of the content. Arllaw (talk) 19:24, 30 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I agree that this should not have been deleted. Why would it be permissible to include paid commercial services like Westlaw and Lexis, but impermissible to discuss Google Scholar? bd2412  T 20:08, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Arllaw and BD2412 are correct. Famspear (talk) 21:34, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

You can see from the revision history that I am the first person to have inserted information about google scholar for law, including a link to several specialized google CSE engines. Arlaw deleted that, inserted a bit abot google scholar, and then presented a UMD link as if it were a link to google scholar which had no cse engines or so far as I saw any direct link to google's existing case law search engines. Presenting a link to a university site as if it were a link to google seems misleading. It also seemed quite galling that having identified this research gap in wikipedia and nicely filling it my reward is a come-uppance. The information on the UMD site is frankly less accurate regarding how exactly to use google scholar to constrain searches using logical operators, search domains, urls. The UMD link also appears to ignore the unfortunate opacity of google regarding stemming and wild-cards. Seems unfair or unscientific, possibly both. The article now no longer refers to the capacity users have to create custom search engines. The link I provide also includes case law search engines for the ECJ, ECtHR, ICTR and ICTY which are not google or behind a paywall. This page is legal research not US research and so ought to include not merely references to lexis and westlaw but also iuris and celex, for examples.

I am ok with this page as it is currently however the page could of course be improved. But if even simple improvements lead to conflicts instead of cooperation, why bother? Ericengle (talk • contribs) 00:53, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Adding sources and references to the page is a good thing - I'm not sure I see the case for removing Arlaw's additions. If you disagree with the removal of prior material, you can add it back without removing what is now in the article. bd2412  T 00:57, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
 * There is no question that the page can be improved. It is important that changes to the article be accurate, and that they be supported by suitable reliable sources. For example, "Google offers an advertising supported privacy invasive searchable database of recent federal and state case law as part of google scholar" is not accurate. I also don't see anything on your page about creating custom search engines. In making improvements, you may benefit from reviewing Wikipedia's guidelines on neutral point of view, external links and conflicts of interest. Thanks. Arllaw (talk) 10:55, 1 July 2019 (UTC)
