Tallaght Stadium

Tallaght Stadium (Staid Thamhlachta) is an association football stadium in the Republic of Ireland based in Tallaght, South Dublin. The club Shamrock Rovers originally announced details of the stadium in July, 1996. The stadium is now owned and operated by South Dublin County Council with Shamrock Rovers as the anchor tenants.

Stadium information
The main stand holds home supporters, club officials and press. A second stand on the opposite (east) side of the ground, was completed in August, 2009. This stand holds the stadium's TV gantry and brought the seating capacity to 6,000 and currently houses away fans. A temporary south stand was constructed over a short period in early September 2011 for Rovers' games in the 2011–12 UEFA Europa League group stage. In 2019 a permanent South Stand was opened behind one of the goals, bringing the capacity to 8,000. All three stands are covered. Construction of new North Stand started in 2022, which will complete the four side of the ground and bring the capacity up to 10,000 seats.

Refreshment stalls are located at the southern end as is a stadium control room. In June, 2013, a scoreboard was added to the stadium control room.

Temporary seating has been constructed at the stadium three times—once for a club friendly against Real Madrid, which gave the ground a temporary capacity of 10,900 again before the 2009 FAI Cup Final, giving the ground a temporary capacity of 8,500 and for Rovers' games in the 2011–12 UEFA Europa League group stage.

Megastore
Located behind the North Stand is the Shamrock Rovers Megastore.

Though previously run by kit supplier, Umbro, it is now fully operated by Rovers. The Megastore was expanded in March, 2011, to include the Rovers Café. Within the Café was a large collection of memorabilia and trophies from the club's foundation in 1899 to the present day that have been donated to the Shamrock Rovers Heritage Trust and have been placed on public display. For the 2013 League of Ireland season, the cafe was replaced with a Customer service area.

Glenmalure Suite
Club members can visit the Glenmalure Suite 60 minutes before kick off, at half time, and after the game for 30 minutes. Occasional post match Q&A with the manager and players are held in the suite.

For the 2018 League of Ireland Premier Division season the bigger 1899 Suite opened for members.

Planning disagreements
The following chronology is taken from the Judgement from the High Court on the Judicial Review.

On 10 February 1997, South Dublin County Council passed a resolution to lease land comprising approximately 12.18 acre at Whitestown Way for the construction of a Stadium for Shamrock Rovers F.C. On 14 January 1998, planning permission was granted and on 24 March 2000, the lease was granted to Mulden International Limited. On 20 October 2000, Mulden International Limited transferred their lease to Slonepark Company Limited to build the stadium and work commenced in October, 2000. Work ceased at the site in November, 2001, with the pitch and drainage laid, the main stand almost complete and other buildings in various states of completion.

Following a prolonged period where no work was carried out at the stadium and a refusal by the Planning Authority in December 2004 to extend the lease the Council terminated the lease on 4 January 2004.

An examiner was appointed to Shamrock Rovers F.C. on 11 April 2005, and the council engaged in discussions with the examiner regarding the completion of the stadium and its use by Shamrock Rovers Football Club when completed. Following the examinership process a supporters group, the '400 Club' took control of Shamrock Rovers and run the club today as the Shamrock Rovers Members Club.

A public consultation process began on 18 July 2005, to complete the soccer stadium at Sean Walsh Memorial Park. Thomas Davis CLG participated fully in the public consultation process. A county Managers report was presented to the council on 12 December 2005, which provided for the increase of playing area to accommodate senior Gaelic games and other uses subject to allocation of funds from the Department of Arts, Sports and Tourism. The council then informed the Department of the resolution and request clarification regarding funding from the department.

A reply was received from the department on 24 January 2006, stating that the Minister could not agree to make funding available for the modified development.

"The recent Council decision to adopt the manager's report subject to increasing the size of the playing pitch and extending the stands seriously undermines the basis of the previously agreed approach. A larger pitch cannot easily be accommodated within the present site given the buildings already in place and would mean that a future stand at the far side of the existing uncompleted stand would be about half the size as originally envisaged, thus limiting the future capacity to about 4,500. Given that the ends of the partially completed west stand are curved means that any proposal to extend along the length is likely to involve significantly increased costs. ...

In response to the request from South Dublin County Council that funding be provided towards the new development as envisaged by the resolution recently passed by your Council, I wish to confirm that the Minister cannot agree to make the funding available on the basis of the new proposed development."

Acting on the Ministers response the Council voted in favour of proceeding with the original plans on 13 February 2006.

Thomas Davis GAA club instituted judicial review proceedings in the High Court in May, 2006. Their main argument was that the decision of the council on 13 February 2006, to revert to the original plans for the stadium, which did not include a senior GAA pitch, was unlawful. Their submission on the technical point was accompanied by cultural arguments that 'the youth of Tallaght will be restricted to a diet of Association football' and that a soccer-only ground would place the 'applicant at a severe disadvantage in attracting the youth of Tallaght to the club, the sport and the GAA culture'. However the stadium, with the original design, could accommodate junior GAA games as the pitch used at this level fits within the stadium's dimensions. It was only senior GAA games that would not have been facilitated.

The disagreement had several low points that were played out in the media. Some Shamrock Rovers fans unveiled a banner at a league game showing their contempt for Thomas Davis's actions in taking the matter to court. And contrary to the GAA policy of being apolitical Thomas Davis GAA club made it known that the Minister of State Conor Lenihan TD, the local Dáil representative, was no longer welcome at the club because of his support for Minister John O'Donoghue's stance and called for the clubs members to make the stadium a General Election issue.

The judicial review began on 20 April 2007, and concluded on 14 December 2007. In the High Court decision Mr. Justice Roderick Murphy found in favour of South Dublin Co. Council and Shamrock Rovers. He found that Thomas Davis had no financial or proprietary interest in the development site having had no agreement with SDCC for its use and noted the extensive facilities they had already been given by the council. And so Thomas Davis was not prejudiced by the decision being made in February rather than late January. The resolution to change the stadium was conditional on additional funding from the department in the absence of this funding the resolution could not stand or, more properly, could not be implemented. The court concluded that "it would be wrong of the respondent to commit itself to unbudgeted expenditure or to delay the implementation of its resolution of 13 February 2005. The court, accordingly, refuses the relief sought by Thomas Davis."

An application by Thomas Davis for leave to appeal this decision to the Supreme court was refused by Judge Murphy on 25 January 2008. Building commenced on the stadium on 6 May 2008, six and a half years after work had first stopped.

Opening and development
The first match in the new stadium was held on 13 March 2009. Rovers made a winning start to life in Tallaght as they saw off the challenge of Sligo Rovers 2–1 in front of a sell-out crowd of 3,000. Gary Twigg had the honour of being the first man to score at the new stadium.

On 20 July 2009, Shamrock Rovers played Real Madrid at Tallaght Stadium as part of a "festival of football" which also included games against Newcastle United and Hibernian. Temporary seating was installed taking capacity up to 10,900. Real Madrid won the game by one goal to nil with a late goal. The match was notable for the debut appearance of Cristiano Ronaldo for Real Madrid. The second (east) stand was opened for a game against Dundalk on 22 August 2009, which attracted over 4,500 fans. The stadium was sold out the following week, albeit with capacity restrictions (meaning a crowd of about 5,400) for a derby with St Patrick's Athletic. Its first full house with the new capacity came against Bohemians on 2 October 2009, as 6,000 tickets were sold out a week in advance.

Tallaght Stadium won the 2010 Airtricity League Pitch of the Year award. It also won the 2012 Airtricity League Pitch of the Year award.

In 2019 the South Stand was opened, behind the southern goal, bringing the capacity up to nearly 8,000 seats. A north stand behind the opposite goal at the 'Square end', started construction in 2022. This will include 2,000 more seats, bringing the capacity of Tallaght stadium up to over 10,000 seats.

Cup football
The 2009 FAI Cup Final was held at the stadium. Sporting Fingal were winners over Sligo Rovers before 8,105 people. The Setanta Sports Cup Final has been held on four occasions at Tallaght Stadium, in 2010, 2011, 2013, and 2014. In the 2013 final, on 13 May 2013, Shamrock Rovers defeated Drogheda United 7–1, in front of 4,022 fans. Following the completion of its fourth stand, Tallaght stadium hosted the tenth edition of the President's Cup in which Rovers beat St. Pat's in front of a record crowd of 8,053.

League football
The capacity of Tallaght Stadium was increased following the opening of the South Stand in 2019. Rovers achieved their biggest league attendance since moving to Tallaght in a 1–0 loss to Bohemians in front of a crowd of 6,414 on 23 April 2019. That league attendance figure was topped later that season with 7,021 attending a Rovers-Bohemians derby in which Shamrock Rovers were victorious 1–0 on 30 August 2019. The following season Rovers beat Dundalk 3–2 in front of a league record Tallaght crowd of 7,522 on 28 February 2020.

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic matches were played behind closed doors for much of the 2020 and 2021 seasons. However Rovers clinched the 2021 League of Ireland Premier Division title in a 3–0 victory over Finn Harps on 29 October 2021 in front of 7,030 at Tallaght stadium. On 19 November 2021, a league record of 7,765 packed in to witness Shamrock Rovers crowned league champions for the 19th time.

Rovers set another league attendance as a 7,864-strong crowd witnessed a 2–0 victory over Bohemians on 5 May 2023. On 29 September 2023, 7,879 witnessed Rovers beat Shelbourne 1–0, setting yet another attendance record for a league match at Tallaght stadium. This record was broken again in November 2023 as 8,021 fans celebrated the Hoops’ 21st Premier Division Title win against Sligo Rovers. Rovers' average league attendance in 2023 rose to 6,115 per game. The club's first sell out after the opening of the new North stand was against Bohemians on March 29, 2024, when 10,094 fans saw Rovers defeat their city rivals 3-1. on On 24 May 2024 8,276 fans saw Shelbourne defeat Rovers 2–0.

European football
The first European game in the stadium was held in July, 2010, when Rovers drew with Bnei Yehuda of Tel Aviv in the UEFA Europa League. After Rovers eliminated the Israelis the next round draw saw Juventus play at the stadium in front of a crowd of 5,800.

The stadium hosted its first UEFA Champions League game in July, 2011, and hosted Rovers' games in the 2011–12 UEFA Europa League group stage. In order to comply with UEFA criteria for participating in the group stages of the UEFA Europa League, a south stand was constructed over a short period in early September 2011. Although constructed with temporary style construction techniques & materials the new stand was passed fit by UEFA inspectors as fulfilling the criteria for permanent seating. The inclusion of the new south stand brought the stadium capacity above the minimum of 8,500 seats needed to be classified as a Category 4 Stadium as laid out in the UEFA Stadium Infrastructure Regulations. On 15 December 2011 Rovers lost 4-0 to Tottenham Hotspur in its final group stage match of the 2011-12 Europa League in front of 8,500 fans. Due to seating restrictions at Richmond Park, St Patrick's Athletic played a 2011–12 UEFA Europa League third qualifying round home game against Karpaty Lviv at Tallaght Stadium, and a 2012–13 UEFA Europa League qualifying phase match against Hannover 96. After the 2011–12 UEFA Europa League group stage, the seats were removed to bring the capacity of the stadium back to 6,000.

Rovers played FK Ekranas in the 2012–13 UEFA Champions League qualifying phase match at Tallaght stadium in front of 4,800 in July 2012.

The stadium hosted Dundalk's home match against BATE Borisov in the 2016–17 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round, and later their home Europa League group stage matches in 2016–17, after their home ground, Oriel Park, did not meet UEFA standards for hosting matches at either stage.

The stadium hosted group stages of the 2022–23 UEFA Europa Conference League as Rovers qualified for the second time for European group stage football.

International football
Tallaght Stadium hosted games for the 2019 UEFA European Under-17 Championship

Main stand
The main stand runs the length of the west side of the pitch and was the first stand to open in the stadium. It houses the club's officials and the press facilities as well as about 3,000 seats. The main stand also houses the dressing rooms. The club's superstore is situated behind the stand.

East stand
The east stand runs the length of the east side of the pitch and was opened late in the 2009 season with capacity for about 3,000 seats. The ultras within the club's support base used to congregate in the east stand, but in 2019, with the opening of the South Stand, the more vociferous Rovers supporters relocated there. Away supporters are now accommodated in the east stand. In July 2010 a control room was constructed at the car park end of the east stand.

South Stand

The new North Stand was planned to hold over 2,000 spectators, increasing capacity from 8,000 to 10,000. The expansion project, which was originally expected to be completed by the end of July 2023, was opened in time for the start of the 2024 season.

Hi MisterSquirrel, instead of big quotes that are attributed, it is better to rewrite in your own words. I was looking at HPV vaccine. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:28, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

personal note re. thimerosal controversy talk page
Mister squirrel,

Just wanted to let you know that I've revived your informative post on the thimerosal controversy talk page (re the 1991 senior Merk memo, re. net thimerosal levels). (It had been deleted.)

ps: Assuming you're still interested in the subject, I could sure use your help / support with improving that article. (It's grossly misleading - i.e. it reads like it was prepared by Eli-Lilly's defence council - and there are three editors who are, thus far, bent on keeping it that way.)

regardless, thanks for your earlier contribution.

All the best, sincerely, Seipjere (talk) 19:44, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

Arlington, Missouri

Arlington is an unincorporated community in western Phelps County, Missouri, United States. The community is located just northeast of the confluence of Little Piney Creek and the Gasconade River. I-44 passes just to the east and the Burlington Northern Railroad passes the south edge of the community. The community of Jerome lies approximately three-quarters of a mile to the northwest across the Gasconade.

History
Arlington was originally called Little Piney. At times troops from the 5th Missouri State Militia Cavalry garrisoned there. Originally settled by Thomas Harrison and James Harrison and later established as a township by General Fremont circa 1867, the town was renamed for the former Robert E. Lee plantation (later a cemetery) at Arlington, Virginia, Folk etymology maintains the name honors Arlie, the wife of a local merchant. Arlington was once a popular resort served by the Pacific Railroad. Located on the last section of U.S. Route 66 in Missouri to be paved, in 1931, the tiny community served fishermen on the Gasconade and Little Piney Rivers.

Stony Dell Resort capitalised on Route 66 and the nearby Fort Leonard Wood military base to grow in the 1930s and early 1940s from a small group of tourist cabins to a popular oasis which included a stream-fed swimming pool, a restaurant, service station and bus stop, offering tennis, dancing, boating and fishing.

By 1946, the town was in decline due to re-routing of a widened US 66; the town site was purchased that year by R. E. Carney. The original 1923 US 66 road bridge, bypassed when the road was widened to four lanes in 1952, was demolished when Interstate 44 bypassed the town in 1966-1967, leaving the original two-lane US 66 a dead end. Most of the Stony Dell Resort was lost to demolition during freeway construction; the restaurant, archway, the fish pond, the gas, food, and gift store, some of the classic stone work, and a handful of cabins remain, now abandoned. Even the 1952 four lane bridge was demolished and replaced as part of a 2005 alignment of I-44.

There are no remaining businesses, the caravan park (Arlington River Resort, 13003 Arlington Road) closed permanently in 2008. The only road access to the townsite is I-44 to Newburg then back on what remains of the original two-lane US 66 roadway (Arlington Outer Road, a dead-end). No longer easily accessed by rail and road, Arlington is now merely a small group of private residences. Arlington is currently composed of more than 20 people; albeit, it is no longer its own township and is now a part of Newburg.

Myrna Mack

Myrna Mack Chang (24 October 1949 – 11 September 1990) was a Guatemalan anthropologist. In 1990, she was stabbed to death by elements in the Guatemalan military due to her criticism of the Guatemala government's treatment of the indigenous Maya, and human rights abuses against the people in general.

Due to her sister's pursuit of justice, Mack's killer was convicted and upper-level superiors tried in precedent-setting cases before the Inter-American Court of Human Rights in Costa Rica. In 2004 the government of Guatemala acknowledged its responsibility and paid her family financial compensation.

Biography
Myrna Mack Chang was born in Barrio San Nicolás, Retalhuleu Department, in southwest Guatemala. Her mother was Chinese and her father was Mayan. Myrna had a younger sister, Helen. After attending local schools, the elder Mack went abroad for college. She studied anthropology in the United Kingdom, at both the University of Manchester and Durham University.

Upon returning to Guatemala, Mack conducted fieldwork among several of the many Maya campesino communities who were uprooted during the Civil War. She became sympathetic to their cause and became more of a human rights activist. As she was working closely with the indigenous peoples, she learned about the attacks made against them by government forces.

Death
On 11 September 1990, Mack was assassinated outside her office in Guatemala City. She was stabbed 27 times by an armed forces death squad (allegedly trained at the School of the Americas) because she had criticized the government for its human rights abuses of the indigenous communities. She was 40 years old.

Her sister, mother and associates took up her case, determined to win justice for her death. Following the Peace Accords and end of the overt civil war, Guatemala was beginning to take actions to document abuses during the civil war, with testimony collected by the National Commission. Her sister Helen Mack filed a case with the Inter-American Human Rights Commission in Washington, DC and later with the Inter-American Court of Human Rights in Costa Rica. In 1993 she set up the Fundación Myrna Mack to support the prosecution and to do other work for human rights.

On 25 November 2003, the court ruled that Mack had been killed by government forces. In April 2004, following the judgment issued by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, the Guatemalan government publicly acknowledged that its agents had committed the killing of Myrna Mack. It provided her next-of-kin with a financial compensation package as part of the court settlement.

Her sister, Helen, was honored with a Right Livelihood Award in 1992 "for her personal courage and persistence in seeking justice and an end to the impunity of political murderers." She continues to work for human rights and has received other recognition for it.

Legacy and awards
In 1993, her sister Helen Mack Chang established the Fundación Myrna Mack to honor her memory, pursue justice through the courts for Mack's death, and continue work in defending human rights.

Is there a reason why you are replacing things such as Template:SI electromagnetism units incorporated into articles, with a link to a rearranged table in an article SI electromagnetism units] containing nothing other than a table? Has this been discussed anywhere? Do you even know how templates work, what those little doubled-up curly braces are for? Gene Nygaard 00:07, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

cite mess
hi tdogg,

you edited Petroleum fly, changing the way citations work in there. this way of doing it has two major disadantages: so, as a result the page IMO is messed up in source, and in display, in order to fulfill the needs of a bloated and not quite useful template. that's why i'm doing a Footnotes section with reflist, and then a proper references section, sorted by year. i just wanted to know there are good reasons to stop this, and that this is driving quite some people away from editing pages that have in effect been vandalized in their source. sorry to sound a little bit harsh, it's nothing personal, and i believe that you're doing this with the best intentions, but it really hurts to see good pages go down the drain of obfuscation. Please see also WP:CITESHORT. i would say let's not try to convert each other. i only kill the inline cite templates when i'm editing an article in depth and just cannot work with the source. maybe there are valid reasons to use them in some contexts, but i think at least the two ways of doing it should coexist for now.
 * makes source quite hard to read
 * no way to accurately sort references.

cheers! --Sarefo (talk) 10:12, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Question
Hello TDogg310, nice to meet you. I wanted to first express my appreciation of the work and edits you made to wiki'izng' Che Guevara. I did however have one question of clarity. You switched the dates from the Middle endian form (used in the United States) of Month/Day/Year to the Little endian form (used in most other nations) of Day/Month/Year. The issue was previously discussed with relation to the article, and it was decided to use the Middle endian form ... with that said is there a specific rationale for why you changed these dates, or do you merely believe it looks better/works better/makes more sense etc? I can see the arguments for both forms, although yes I do favor the previously used Middle form. Thanks. Red thoreau (talk)RT 05:04, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Whenever I come across an article that I notice has inaccurate or insufficient internal links, I fix those as well as change the date format if need be to the standard Little endian. It is sort of an OCD response, and I don't see how it could cause problems.  I didn't realize that it had been decided the American date format would be used exclusively on the Che Guevara article until after I changed the date format for some of the dates to Little endian.  I hope I didn't cause any problems with my edits.TDogg310 (talk) 05:33, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

 * TDogg, no problems were caused at all, I was simply curious if maybe there was a wiki policy on date listings etc. I also didn't want to revert them, or make any adjustments before speaking with you about it - (I'm still not sure what to do to be honest, as I can see the rationale for both ways). Additionally, I can empathize with your "OCD" on the matter, as I also possess several "quirks" which irritate me/enact a response.  Red thoreau  (talk) RT 13:18, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

 * TDogg, The vast majority of your wiki'ning of the article has been excellent and is much appreciated. However, I was wondering if you wouldn't mind reverting solely the dates to the Middle endian format. The reasoning being that it was previously decided that since the page was mostly read in America that it should reflect that particular audience. After perusing other similar historical figures English pages, I found most to also use this particular formatting for dates. Thank you.  Red thoreau  (talk) RT 16:25, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Thanks for doing that for me. Also nice work with the continued wiki'n and citations. If you have the time I think a few repeat citations could use formatting, as you seem quite adept at quickly synchronizing them.  Red thoreau  (talk) RT 19:47, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

Usage point
Hi. I noticed that at Northern Caracara, you changed "The Mexican ornithologist Rafael Martín del Campo proposed..." to "Mexican ornithologist Rafael Martín del Campo proposed..." The construction you preferred is very common in journalism and on Wikipedia, but there are also objections to it, and I never use it. By coincidence, this article making the case against it came out today. What's the case for it? —JerryFriedman (Talk) 21:28, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Minor edits
Please remember to mark your edits as minor if (and only if) they genuinely are minor edits (see Help:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearranging of text without modifying content should be flagged as a 'minor edit.'  --Ericdn (talk) 21:19, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Re: Caesalpinia kavaiensis
Hey, I saw your edit summary and thought I would chime in with a little FYI. User:Polbot, which is run by User:Quadell is working on creating articles for WikiProject Law/United States federal judges. I guess in the past it did work on creating articles for the IUCN Red List. Caesalpinia kavaiensis was tagged as an orphan by another bot, User:Addbot, which is run by User:Addshore. This article was tagged because it appeared on one of three lists here. These lists may no longer be updated, but you can see from whatlinkshere, that it was orphaned before you added it to Hawaiian tropical dry forests. Anyway, drop me a line if you run into any problems. BTW, you may notice some traffic on some of the talk pages you have edited, as I'm trying to tag them. Thanks. Viriditas (talk) 00:26, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I forgot to mention: I was monitoring the orphaned articles by using the orphan=yes paramter in the project tag, but I see that somebody has removed it from the template without telling me. This is unfortunate, as it was more current and categorized the articles, unlike WolterBot.  In any case, if you are interested, you can see a list of currently orphaned articles here. Thanks.

Good edits, but be careful with stuff like this. This information is true, but was simply lacking sources. Another editor added one part back in with a source, but that still leaves out its state ranking, which should be put back in.

categories
Hi,

I wonder if you're aware that we only put articles in the most specific categories available. For example, if an article is in Category:Extinct flora of Hawaii, then it needn't be in Category:Flora of Hawaii nor Category:Extinct plants, because both these last two are parent categories of the first. On the other hand, an article can be in Category:Extinct flora of Hawaii and Category:Endemic flora of Hawaii because neither is a parent of the other.

I do lot of category cleanup, and I've noticed that I'm cleaning up a lot of this kind of stuff behind you. I'm not complaining; I don't mind doing it. If you prefer to move through quickly and leave a few loose ends for me or others to clean up after you, that's fine with me. I just thought maybe you didn't know.

Double redirect
Hello. Last night, you moved STA sniper to Scout Sniper Platoon without addressing the redirecting pages. In some cases, this created a double redirect that had to be fixed. In the future, when you move a page, you should take care to correct these double redirects, and I recommend correcting the redirect on any high-use templates as well (such as navboxes). You can use the what links here link in your toolbox (on the left side of the page) to see what redirects exist. Thanks.  bahamut0013  words deeds   10:26, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Ceramic Heating Elements
Thanks for the message re Ceramic Elements and heating. Sorry to bother you further but there arose another question or two.

If electron carriers are made available in ceramics upon the application of heat and thereore some resistance is overcome allowing a resisted flow, then logically one would assume: more heat = more available carriers. How then does one get MORE heat by turning the voltage up. Doesn't more heat/voltage then reduce resistance and give less heat? I realise i must be missing a point somewhere or just went DOH! on you.

Also, are they some sort of special ceramic or blended with a none ceramic, because as i have always understood it, ceramics are used as one of the best insulators as in powerlines - even high voltage/hot ones and arcing things like switches ergo also 'hot' but highly resistive.

Sorry for the obvious lack of basic knowledge, my area/hobby is more Gedanken Experiments in physics of time and space. Good luck with your studies, sounds like you are very passionate about your work and the world sure needs more of that right now especially. Also read through your use talk page and just wondering whether you might be Hawaiian? Don't mean to be rude. Have a personal reason for asking but don't know if this is the right place to continue. Is there somewhere more private to chat directly with someone on Wiki or is that poor form? And if so how does one do it? Sorry again for my ignorance but you seemed like a nice person to ask. Thanks a million.

Before you go further on another Everglades article. These were meticulously crafted with much attention to detail.

 * Ok, well I apologize for my mini-freakout. There are six Everglades articles. The first I wrote was the ENP article, when FA standards were a bit looser than they are today. For the others, however, I spent many hours trying to get the species names right, linking, searching for the right ones, etc. I appreciate the South Florida rockland article you wrote, and kept most of your structural changes, but the capitalization must be consistent throughout the article. Apologies if I came on too strong. My primary concerns are accuracy and consistency. --Moni3 (talk) 19:55, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Coromandel Ebony
To answer your question from 2009 in, because the article, when I created it, was in fact about Coromandel Ebony, Diospyros melanoxylon.

Article titles
Wikipedia is for the common people. The policy at WP:UCN states that "The term most typically used in reliable sources is preferred to technically correct but rarer forms, whether the official name, the scientific name...". And in all of these cases, these plants are commonly referred to by their common names. The editors at Rose seems to realise this. Yet you moved Pachyrhizus erosus in 2010 to that unheard name, from the original name of 'Jícama', a much more common name. Whatever 'decision' for a 'standard convention' for plants was decided by some editors is a decision that should be ignored as it goes against policy. And no editor has to follow guidelines, acts, or rules set by anyone unless stated so on a policy page. Please change the name of that article back to 'Jícama'. Thank you.--ɱ (talk) 22:58, 16 February 2013 (UTC)

Go ahead and change the article back to its previous title. I was a bit hasty when I made the switch to use the scientific name as the title. The debate between whether or not an accent mark should be in the title is a bit silly, but I'll admit that my solution goes against multiple guidelines.--TDogg310 (talk) 18:50, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Assistance with the Tradescantia pallida article
Hello! I was hoping I might get your help with the Tradescantia pallida article; I removed a sentence to the talk page which I believe was in error. It looks like it originated with an edit you made in 2011 (which I presume was correct) but mutated into error sometime in between. The trouble is I did not immediately find the source referenced, so I wasn't entirely confident fixing the mess. I was hoping you might have the time to take a look. Many thanks! --TeaDrinker (talk) 14:11, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Tanky. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Tanky~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 02:58, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information.

Rice tea
Please tell me the revised romanization name of the tea made from roasted brown rice (I'm actually drinking some now, homemade). I'd like to make an article for this, equivalent to the boricha and oksusu cha articles. Badagnani 01:51, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Is it "hyeon mi cha"? Badagnani 02:06, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Great work. Are you able to take photos of Korean cuisine things? There are some things like this that we need. If you ever get into Jeolla, we need Hwangpomuk too. Badagnani 05:03, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

 * You don't have go to Jeolla to eat Hwangpomuk. In Seoul, you can find plenty of regional restaurants anyway. But I'm studying in Houston right now that I don't have much opportunities to visit Korean restaurants. (I don't have a car yet T.T) But I can take pictures of food whenever I make one myself Stevefis 05:13, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

That's good to know. But you'll never find hwangpomuk in Houston! It's even hard to find any kind of muk other than nokdumuk in America. Badagnani 05:21, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

First of all, to make it, you better have really good rice. I buy "short grain brown rice" at my natural foods store. It has short, very fat grains like this. When you toast it in the pot they'll start to jump and spin and a few will pop. Keep agitating the pot or stirring that rice so it doesn't blacken. Once it's a little brown (like very light chocolate brown), it's ready. Your description of how to do it seems good. Actually, it's so simple and delicious. Badagnani 05:05, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Hoe
Regarding the heodeopbap, I didn't know why the previous editor who added about noodles and stew and other things did that, if it's not a possibility. That's why I re-added it, because I couldn't understand why someone would write that in the first place if it weren't true. (I hadn't heard of those versions either, by the way.) Badagnani 01:59, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

 * That's alright. I think I have misunderstood you. Next time, I'll be more careful about criticizing mistake. :) Stevefis 04:57, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Notability of Wold (Band)
A tag has been placed on Wold (Band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Truthanado (talk) 02:01, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Hisar district

Hisar district is one of the 22 districts of Haryana, India. Hisar city serves as the district headquarters. Hisar district has four sub-divisions that is, Hisar, Barwala, Hansi and Narnaud, each headed by an SDM. The district is also part of Hisar division. Hisar was founded by Firuz Shah Tughlaq.

The largest district in Haryana until its 1966 reorganization, some parts of Hisar were transferred to the newly created Jind district. In 1974, the Tehsils of Bhiwani and Loharu were transferred to Bhiwani district. Hisar was further bifurcated when Sirsa district was formed. Fatehabad district was later created as well.

Hisar is a divisional headquarters of the Hisar division and also the headquarters of Police Range. It is also a battalion headquarters of B.S.F. 3rd Bn. H.A.P. and commando force. In order to accommodate all of these departments, a five-storey District Administrative Complex was built, with the offices transferred in 1980. It adjoins the new Judiciary Complex, which is also made functional. This administrative and judiciary complex is the largest in Haryana; as a district headquarters it may be one of the largest in the country.

It is one of the five cities belonging to Sarasvati Valley Civilization while its name is cited in the history books in the context of Indus civilization and in general knowledge books as the location of Banawali, one of five sheep farms. it is the second most populous of the 21 districts of Haryana, after Faridabad.

Hisar is also known as the steel city because of the Jindal Stainless Steel Factories. It is also the largest producer of galvanized iron in India.

Geography
North Hisar district falls in doab between Ghagghar river flowing through fatehabad district and paleo channel of Dhrishadvati river flowing through the Narnaul tehsil. Eastern, central and south-eastern Hisar district falls in doab between Dhrishadvati river and Yamuna river. Western Hisar district is part of bagar tract. The regions of the doabs near the rivers consist of low-lying, flood-prone, but usually very fertile khadir and the higher-lying land away from the rivers consist of bangar, less prone to flooding but also less fertile on average. For the purpose of irrigation, Hisar district has been classified into 5 circles, namely barani (low rain area where rain-fed dry farming is practiced which nowadays are dependent on tubewells for the irrigation), bagar (dry sandy tract of land on the border of Rajasthan state adjoining the states of Haryana and Punjab) nahri (canal-irrigated land), nali or naili (fertile prairie tract between the Ghaggar river and the southern limits of the Saraswati channel depression in northern Hissar district of Haryana that gets flooded during the rains), and Rangoi tract (an area irrigated by the Rangoi canal made for the purpose of carrying flood waters of Ghagghar river to dry areas).

Hisar has fertile alluvial soil interspersed with highly permeable very sandy tracts in bagar region several with water table more than 100 feet below ground containing brackish water usually unfit for human consumption, where dust storms frequent during the warm summer months from April till the end of July when monsoon arrives. Previously, Hisar was solely based on the rain and irrigation was possible only in the nali region where the season Ghaggar river flows in North Hisar. After the opening of Bhakra Nangal Dam canal system in 1963 as well as the earlier Western Yamuna Canal now irrigate most of Haryana including all of the Bagar region falling in Haryana on its western border. Opening of Indira Gandhi Canal in 1983 (specially Hansi Butana branches) brought the water of Sutlej and Beas rivers to the fields of Rajasthan including its Bagar tract stabilizing the sand dunes and soil erosion by preventing the expansion of desert.

Climate
Hisar has a warm climate.

History

The district suffered famine in 1783-84 (Chalisa famine), 1838, 1860-61, 1896-97 and 1899-1900.

Administrative divisions
Hisar continued to be the District Headquarters of the largest District in the state until its reorganization in 1966 when parts were carved out to create the new Jind District. The Tehsil Bhiwani and Loharu estate were later transferred to Bhiwani district on its creation in 1974. It was further bifurcated when Sirsa district was created entirely out of Hisar District. Fatehabad district has now been carved out of this district.

At present Hisar district consists of the eight tehsils of Adampur, Agroha, Barwala, Hisar, Hansi-1, Hansi-2, Narnaund and Uklanamandi, two Sub-Tehsils of Balsamand and Bass. Vehicle registration numbers for Hisar district are: Hisar HR 20 and HR 39 (commercial no), Hansi HR 21 and Barwala HR 80.

Hisar is a divisional headquarters of the Divisional Commissioner and also the headquarters of the Police Range. It is also a battalion Headquarters of Border Security Force, 3rd battalion of Haryana Armed Police and police commando force. All these departments are now housed in a five storied District Administrative Complex completed in 1980, which adjoins the new Judiciary Complex.

The district has seven Vidhan Sabha constituencies, namely, Adampur, Uklana, Narnaund, Hansi, Barwala, Hisar and Nalwa. All of these are part of Hisar Lok Sabha constituency

Demographics
the district had a population of 1,743,931, roughly equal to the nation of The Gambia or the US state of Nebraska. This gave it a ranking of 276th in India out of a total of 640 districts. The district has a population density of 438 PD/sqkm. Its population growth rate over the decade 2001-2011 was 13.38%. Hisar has a sex ratio of 871 females for every 1000 males, and a literacy rate of 73.2%. Scheduled Castes make up 23.44% of the population.

Hisar is 98% Hindu, only about 40,000 are Muslims, rest are mostly Jain and Sikhs. Nearly all Muslims of Hisar left for Pakistan during Partition.

At the time of the 2011 Census of India, 68.76% of the population in the district spoke Haryanvi, 26.40% Hindi and 2.41% Punjabi as their first language. Haryanvi is the most spoken dialect in the district.

The important social groups in the district are Jats, Bishnois, Brahmins, Banias, Agrawal Jains, Aroras, Sainis, Ahirs, Gujjars, Kumhars, Chamars and Balmikis. Jat is the largest social group in the city. Bishnois have migrated from Rajasthan. There are three sections of Brahmins in the district, i.e., Gaur, Bias and Khandelwal.
