Motorola Solutions

Motorola Solutions, Inc. is an American video equipment, telecommunications equipment, software, systems and services provider that succeeded Motorola, Inc., following the spinoff of the mobile phone division into Motorola Mobility in 2011. The company is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois.

History
On January 4, 2011 Motorola Inc. split into two companies: Motorola Mobility and Motorola Solutions. Motorola Solutions, the public safety and enterprise security side of the business, began trading as a separate independent company under the NYSE symbol MSI.

In April 2011, Motorola Solutions and China’s Huawei Technologies settled a legal dispute over trade secrets, which cleared the way for Motorola Solutions to complete the sale of its networks business unit to Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN) for $975 million in cash. As part of the transaction, approximately 6,900 employees, and responsibility for supporting customers of Motorola Solutions’ GSM, CDMA, WCDMA, WiMAX and LTE products and services transferred to NSN.

In 2012, the company released the LEX700 mission-critical handheld radio, the world’s first handheld public safety LTE device. The device combined rugged hardware with the ability to connect with public safety LTE, cellular, IP and P25 networks

In January 2014, the company announced its acquisition of Twisted Pair Solutions, a provider of push-to-talk over broadband applications for secure, real-time communication on any device. Twisted Pair created an integrated communications system that allows different devices (smartphones, tablets, and PCs) to talk to each other in business, public safety, and military applications.

Later than year, the company completed the sale of its Enterprise business, comprising rugged mobile computers, tablets and barcode scanners to Zebra Technologies for $3.45 billion in cash. As part of the sale, approximately 4,500 Motorola Solutions employees from locations throughout the world were transferred to Zebra.

In February 2015, the company acquired Emergency CallWorks, a provider of Next-Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) call-taking software for public safety. The company developed technology that consolidates information from multiple 911 calls reporting the same emergency into a single source that can be shared with emergency professionals. In April of that year, they acquired PublicEngines, a crime analysis firm. The company is based in Utah and provides cloud-based solutions for data analytics of crime, predictive policing strategies, and citizen engagement.

In August 2015, the company received a $1 billion investment from the private equity firm Silver Lake Partners, As part of the transaction, Silver Lake was granted two seats on Motorola Solutions’ Board of Directors.

Beginning in March 2017, Motorola Solutions filed a series of lawsuits against China-based two-way radio manufacturer Hytera in the United States, Germany, and Australia, as well as with the United States International Trade Commission (USITC). The complaints allege that Hytera is intentionally infringing on patents owned by Motorola Solutions and utilizing trade secrets stolen by three former Motorola Solutions employees who left to join Hytera. Motorola Solutions is seeking to stop Hytera from selling and importing its devices in these countries. In April 2017, the USITC announced that it had decided to institute an investigation into Hytera's trade practices.

In August 2017, Motorola Solutions announced it completed the acquisition of Kodiak Networks, a privately held provider of broadband push-to-talk (PTT) for commercial customers.

In December 2017, two-way radio manufacturer Hytera filed antitrust litigation against Motorola Solutions in alleging that Motorola Solutions is engaging in anti-competitive practices that are unlawful under the Sherman Act and Clayton Act. Hytera's complaint alleges that Motorola Solutions prevents Hytera from competing in the U.S. marketplace by enforcing inflated prices and engaging in a monopolistic scheme that includes forcing LMR dealers to drop Hytera's products.

In March 2018, Motorola Solutions acquired Avigilon for about $1 billion.

In March 2018, Motorola Solutions acquired Plant Holdings, Inc., which holds the Airbus DS Communications business, from Airbus Defense and Space, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of Airbus SE.

Products
Motorola Solutions manufactures two-way radios and public safety radio systems for first-responders and law enforcement. It also provides software packages for command centers, mapping and drone surveillance. Apart from radios, it manufactures body cameras, the Watchguard Video brand for law enforcement, while others geared more towards private business and security surveillance under the Avigilon brand. On 3 August 2020, MSI acquired California based Video Security brand Pelco for US$110M in cash. With this acquisition Motorola Solutions now has 3 Video Security brands under the Video Security and Analytics business. Avigilon, Pelco and IndigoVision

Motorola Solutions also manufactures push to talk LTE devices under the LTE LEX line. The LEX series runs on Android.

Controversies
In August 2021, Motorola Solutions filed a 52-page complaint against Verkada with the United States International Trade Commission, alleging that Verkada cameras and software infringe upon patents held by Motorola Solutions subsidiary Avigilon. Verkada subsequently filed a lawsuit against Motorola Solutions in the California Northern District Court in September 2021, arguing that Motorola Solutions has "sought to effectively shut Verkada's business down". Later in September, the International Trade Commission initiated its investigation into Motorola Solutions' complaint, with Verkada stating in its response that it does not infringe upon any of Motorola Solutions' patents.

Involvement in Israeli settlements
On February 12, 2020, the United Nations published a database of all business enterprises involved in certain specified activities related to the Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, including East Jerusalem, and in the occupied Golan Heights. Motorola Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiary company, Motorola Solutions Israel Ltd., have been listed on the database in light of their involvement in activities related to "the supply  of  surveillance  and  identification  equipment  for  settlements, the wall and checkpoints directly linked with settlements". The international community considers Israeli settlements built on land occupied by Israel to be in violation of international law.

On July 5, 2021, Norway's largest pension fund KLP said it would divest from Motorola Solutions, together with 15 other business entities implicated in the UN report for their links to Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, saying it was "a very straightforward decision" given the use of the company's video security and software in border surveillance.

nn for now Wyss 03:09, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep - historic event, though admittedly a current news item. I was about to add the current-event template. What does "nn" mean? --Cheese Sandwich 03:15, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * A search for "nn" reveals that it probably means "night-night". As good a reason as any for deletion of this article, I suppose. --Cheese Sandwich 03:18, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * comment: nn means not-notable. Frankly, I'm having a hard time figuring out why this is encyclopedic, but I'll abstain. Mmmbeer 03:47, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * It stands for non-notable, and is a reference to the subject failing, in the voter's judgement, the various options at WP:Importance, or in the case of a person, usually more importantly WP:BIO. In reference to the appropriate material, it might also be referring to WP:FICT, WP:MUSIC or a number of other options. Note that at least most of those documents are disputed and none is policy although some carry considerable weight. posted after edit conflict -Splash 03:48, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, is probably notable enough just for setting out on a serious attempt. Moreover, whatever the outcome (success, failure, death etc) he is almost certain to acquire notability from that. -Splash 03:48, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * According to the source article this guy has had some other interesting exploits: "No stranger to adventure, Mee has undertaken several Arctic expeditions, including one in 2003 when he was trapped in pack ice and attacked by a musk ox which broke four of his ribs." I could probably expand this article a bit. --Cheese Sandwich 05:17, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Note that Cheese Sandwich created the article. Wyss 06:42, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Weak Delete - pending the (hopefully successful) outcome of the voyage. Perhaps clean up into an biographical article about all of Mee's adventures. PlainSight 13:52, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep - Currently, this has the implications of a possible historic world-record. If it happens to fail, at least this such feat had been attempted. UniReb 22:09, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Seems moderately notable already, although I'm slightly concerned by the guy's squashed head. Flowerparty  talk 00:42, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Goldilocks and the Three Bears

"Goldilocks and the Three Bears" is a 19th-century English fairy tale of which three versions exist. The original version of the tale tells of an impudent old woman who enters the forest home of three anthropomorphic bachelor bears while they are away. She eats some of their porridge, sits down on one of their chairs, breaks it, and sleeps in one of their beds. When the bears return and discover her, she wakes up, jumps out of the window, and is never seen again. The second version replaces the old woman with a young, naive, blonde-haired girl named Goldilocks, and the third and by far best-known version replaces the bachelor trio with a family of three. The story has elicited various interpretations and has been adapted to film, opera, and other media. "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" is one of the most popular fairy tales in the English language.

Literary elements
The story makes extensive use of the literary rule of three, featuring three chairs, three bowls of porridge, three beds, and the three title characters who live in the house. There are also three sequences of the bears discovering in turn that someone has been eating from their porridge, sitting in their chairs, and finally, lying in their beds, at which point the climax of Goldilocks being discovered occurs. This follows three earlier sequences of Goldilocks trying the bowls of porridge, chairs, and beds successively, each time finding the third "just right". Author Christopher Booker characterises this as the "dialectical three" where "the first is wrong in one way, the second in another or opposite way, and only the third, in the middle, is just right". Booker continues: "This idea that the way forward lies in finding an exact middle path between opposites is of extraordinary importance in storytelling".

This concept has spread across many other disciplines, particularly developmental psychology, biology, economics, Buddhism, and engineering where it is called the "Goldilocks principle". In planetary astronomy, a planet orbiting its sun at just the right distance for liquid water to exist on its surface, neither too hot nor too cold, is referred to as being in the "Goldilocks Zone". As Stephen Hawking put it, "Like Goldilocks, the development of intelligent life requires that planetary temperatures be 'just right.

The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia

"The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia" is a Southern Gothic murder ballad, written in 1972 by songwriter Bobby Russell and first recorded by his then-wife singer, comedian, and actress Vicki Lawrence. Lawrence's version, from her 1973 album of the same name, went to number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart after its release. Of several cover versions, the one recorded by Reba McEntire for her 1991 album For My Broken Heart peaked at number 12 on the Hot Country Songs chart.

Content
The unnamed female narrator tells about how her unnamed brother was hanged for a crime he did not actually commit (although he had intended to do it): Returning home from a two-week trip to a place called Candletop, a man identified only as "Brother" stops for a drink at Webb's Bar before going home to his wife. While at the bar, he encounters his friend Andy Wolloe, who informs him that while he was gone his bride/wife was having an affair with "that Amos boy, Seth", and then admits that he himself had been with her as well. A now-angry Brother abruptly leaves the bar, and a frightened Andy makes his way home.

Assuming his absent wife has left town, Brother goes home and finds the only thing his father had left him, a gun. Brother then makes his way through the backwoods to Andy's house. On the way there, he notices a set of footprints leading to and from the house, but they are not big enough to have been made by Andy. Arriving at his back door, the man finds Andy inside lying dead on the floor from a gunshot. In a panic, Brother fires a shot in the air to get the attention of the police, only to find himself arrested for Andy's murder. In a show trial, the judge wastes little time declaring Brother guilty and sentences him to death by hanging, which is carried out in short order.

The story wraps up as the narrator reveals that she is the sister of the "innocent man" and that it was her footprints that Brother saw on his way to Andy's house. She then confesses that she had not only killed Andy, but her brother’s adulterous wife as well, disposing of the latter's body where she is certain nobody will ever find it, saying "That's one body that'll never be found," and boasting, "Little Sister don't miss when she aims her gun."

In the song's chorus, the singer blames the local criminal justice system for Brother's death, warning the listener, "Don't trust your soul to no backwoods Southern lawyer, 'cause the judge in the town's got blood stains on his hands."

History and original recording

Although Bobby Russell wrote the lyrics and composed the music for the song, he was reluctant to even record a demo for it because he did not like it. Lawrence, who was married to Russell at the time, believed the song was a hit and recorded the demo. The publishers and the record label did not know how to pitch the song, as it was not a country or a pop song. The first thought was to offer the song to actress/singer Liza Minnelli, but eventually it was offered to singer Cher, but her then-husband and manager Sonny Bono reportedly refused it, as he was said to be concerned that the song might offend Cher's Southern fans. Without a singer to record the song, Lawrence, along with producer Snuff Garrett, went into a studio and recorded it professionally herself, with the instrumental backing of L.A. session musicians from the Wrecking Crew.

Release and reception
Released as a single in November 1972, the song went to No. 1 on the Hot 100 chart in 1973 when Lawrence was a regular performer on the ensemble variety comedy television show The Carol Burnett Show. On March 24, 1973, the final episode of the sixth season, Burnett surprised Lawrence by presenting her with an RIAA gold record for more than a million copies sold. The song hit No. 6 on the Easy Listening chart, and peaked at No. 36 on Billboard's Hot Country Singles chart. It was No. 1 for two weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, and was topped by Tony Orlando and Dawn's "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree." Billboard ranked it as the No. 11 song for 1973.

In Canada, the single version went to No. 1 on the RPM 100 national singles chart on May 5, 1973. On the RPM Country Singles chart, it reached No. 25.

Musical structure
The lyrics use an AABCCB rhyming pattern on the verses, and ABAB on the chorus. The song's verses are in C Dorian. Verse one consists of four lines, each using the chord pattern Cm-B♭/C-Cm-F/C-Cm-Gm7-Cm. At the chorus, the song modulates to the key of G major, with a chord pattern of Am-D7-G-Em used three times before ending on Am-D7-Gm.

Verse two uses the same structure as verse one, with an additional two lines. The first additional line also modulates to G major with a chord pattern of Am-D7-G-Em-Am-D-Gm, before returning to C Dorian for another repetition of the original chord pattern. After the second chorus, the third verse consists of two lines before the chorus is sung a third time. The song ends with a four-measure riff in G minor. The vocal range is G$3$-D$5$.

Tanya Tucker
In 1981, country singer Tanya Tucker recorded a version with differing lyrics and an altered timeline, based on the plot of the 1981 film The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia. Tucker's cover is included on the film's soundtrack album.

Reba McEntire
During 1991, the song was covered by Reba McEntire on her album For My Broken Heart. It reached No. 12 on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart. While still a commercially successful release, it broke a string of 24 consecutive top 10 country singles by McEntire.

Jack Cole directed a music video for the McEntire single, in which the older brother of the story is given the name Raymond Brody. The video included spoken dialogue expanding on the song's plot points, including the suggestion that the judge convicted Brody despite knowing Brody was innocent, because he (the judge) feared a trial would expose that he had also had an affair with the wife, played by Playboy centerfold/pin up model Barbara Moore. In the video, the little sister, played by McEntire, as a young woman in flashbacks and as a 60-year-old woman, catches her fiancé, Andy, in the act with her brother's wife.

During a promotional tour for the song, Lawrence and McEntire performed the song as a duet on Lawrence's talk show Vicki! using the McEntire backing track.

In popular culture

 * "The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia" is an example of a twist ending in a song. In the 1992 film Reservoir Dogs, the mobster named Nice Guy Eddie, played by Chris Penn, says, "...this is the first time I ever realized that the girl singin' the song is the one who shot Andy."
 * The song is referenced in a parody on The Carol Burnett Show (season 7 episode 25), in which a non-existent song, "The Night My Tights Gave Out in Georgia" is mentioned during a sketch set against the backdrop of a music awards show.
 * Using the Pete Schofield and the Canadians' version, the opening and closing motifs are sampled in "The Time Is Now," which American professional wrestler John Cena used as his entrance music.
 * The title of the song is part of a monologue featured on the sitcom Designing Women, spoken by the character Julia Sugarbaker, as played by Dixie Carter. The monologue became notable and was subsequently quoted by fans and is often mentioned in pop culture.

NN. I Googled "Matthew Dean", and came up with hits for a comedian, BMX free-stylist, Actor, and a Whistle, Flute and Bodhran player, but none for this vocalist. Perhaps the most notable thing about Mr. Dean according to the article is that he co-founded a Russian Folk group, but this group does not have a WP entry. I found such a beast on Google at: Golosa Choir, but under the "History" section on this site, Mr. Dean is not attributed as a co-founder (before you ask, the two listed founders don't have pages in WP).

Port Robinson, Ontario

Port Robinson is a small community in the southernmost part of Thorold, Ontario, Canada. The community is divided in half by the Welland Canal, as there is no bridge in the immediate vicinity to connect the two halves of the community. In the summer, a small free ferry for pedestrians and cyclists runs across the canal. In the winter, residents must use the bridge on Highway 20, which results in a 13.3 km (8.3 mi) trip to get to the other side.

Like all the ports on the first Welland Canal, Port Robinson was named after a member of the Family Compact that once ruled Upper Canada, as Ontario was then named. Sir John Beverley Robinson was Attorney General of Upper Canada at the time the first Canal was built, and the port was originally named Port Beverley. The post office dates from 1835 onward.

The demise of Bridge 12
Bridge St in Port Robinson was originally linked by a vertical lift bridge, numbered as Bridge 12 by the St. Lawrence Seaway Authority.

On August 25, 1974, the 600 foot ore carrier Steelton, travelling northbound on the canal, struck and destroyed the bridge.

The east tower of the bridge toppled over, while the west tower collapsed in on itself. The bridge span was pushed into the water, severely deformed. The damage to the bridge was estimated as between $15 and $20 million. It was scrapped in its entirety. The removal of the towers from the canal, especially the counterweights (some 300 tons each), necessitated the use of a special heavy-duty floating crane. The canal was closed until September 9 for the repairs.

The Steelton suffered damage to its bow and pilot house, estimated at $1 million. The repairs were made at Port Colborne, at the southern terminus of the Welland Canal.

There was no loss of life. The bridge master, Albert Beaver, and a watchman on the ship suffered minor injuries.

The ensuing investigation concluded that the ship failed to blow the whistle to signal its approach and the bridge could not be raised in time.

After the accident, rebuilding the bridge or building a tunnel to replace it was considered. In the end, it was concluded that the volume of local vehicular traffic was not sufficient to warrant such an expense. Instead, a passenger ferry service was launched in early 1977. The ferry can transport people and bicycles, but is not big enough for cars, thus forcing residents who want to use a car to take the long route. In 2015, amid debate about discontinuing the ferry, it was estimated that the ferry carries 2000 pedestrians and 6000 touring cyclists per year.

A similar accident occurred at Bridge 11 in Allanburg in 2001. That bridge was lowered onto the passing bulk carrier Windoc, which afterwards caught fire. The ship was a total loss, but no injuries were reported, and Bridge 11 suffered minor damage and was repaired. While repairs were underway, Port Robinson residents wishing to travel by car to other side of the community had to drive even farther than usual to use the Main Street Tunnel in Welland.

Rage Over a Lost Penny

The "Rondo Alla ingharese quasi un capriccio" in G major, Op. 129 (Italian for "Rondo in the Hungarian [i.e. gypsy] style, almost a caprice"), is a rondo for piano written by Ludwig van Beethoven. It is better known by the title Rage Over a Lost Penny, Vented in a Caprice (from Die Wut über den verlorenen Groschen, ausgetobt in einer Caprice). This title appears on the autograph manuscript, but not in Beethoven's hand, and has been attributed to his friend Anton Schindler. It is a favourite with audiences and is frequently performed as a showpiece.

Music
Despite the late opus number, the work's composition has been dated to between 1795 and 1798. Beethoven left the piece unpublished and incomplete; it was published in 1828 by Anton Diabelli, who obscured the fact that it had been left unfinished. The performance time runs between five and six minutes; the tempo of the piece is Allegro vivace (= 132–160).

The indication alla ingharese is of interest, as no such word as "ingharese" exists in standard Italian. To people of Beethoven's day, "Gypsy music" and "Hungarian music" were synonymous terms. Beethoven seems to have conflated alla zingarese (in the Gypsy style) and all'ungherese (in the Hungarian style) to come up with the grotesque hybrid term alla ingharese.

Robert Schumann wrote of the work that "it would be difficult to find anything merrier than this whim... It is the most amiable, harmless anger, similar to that felt when one cannot pull a shoe from off the foot," citing the work as an instance of Beethoven's earthliness against those who exult in a transcendental image of the composer.

Erwin Schulhoff arranged the work for orchestra.

Mōkau River

The Mōkau River is located in the North Island of New Zealand.

The river rises as a spring in the Pureora Forest, south of Te Kūiti, on the slopes of the Rangitoto Range. After briefly following a north-westward course, it turns south-westwards and flows for 158 km through the Waitomo District of the King Country. It enters the North Taranaki Bight at its mouth at the town of Mōkau.

Although the rivermouth is enclosed by a large sandbar, with a high tide, larger vessels can pass safely and enter the river, which is navigable for 37 km upstream. In the late 19th century and early 20th century, the banks of the river were host to a thriving industry of logging and coal-mining. However, the risks and costs of transporting goods down the Mōkau eventually ended such enterprise.

Today the river is a popular whitebaiting and kayaking location.

South Spur Rail Services

South Spur Rail Services was a Western Australian owned railway company that provides terminal operations and short haul rail services. In February 2006, it purchased Silverton Rail. In March 2007, it was sold to Coote Industrial, then in March 2010 to P&O Trans Australia, which in turn was acquired by Qube Holdings.

History
South Spur Rail Services was formed in January 1997 by James Wilson and his three brothers.

It won a number of contracts for hauling infrastructure trains. In Perth, it also provided hook-and-pull services for Pacific National's SeaTrain service between Kewdale Freight Terminal and Fremantle Port. In the construction of the Perth to Mandurah railway, South Spur Rail Services diesels hauled track and sleepers over the Mount Henry Bridge as far as South Perth.

By 2004, it had commenced operating infrastructure trains in New South Wales. In 2006, it commenced operating a service from Parkes to Perth for SCT Logistics using Silverton Rail C class locomotives.

Until 2008, South Spur Rail Services also operated a Restaurant Train service called the Spirit of the West, using K class locomotive K205 and a number of standard gauge coaches including two hired from Rail Heritage WA.

The company acquired New South Wales railway freight company Silverton Rail in 2006 and renamed it Southern & Silverton Rail, with this subsidiary operating South Spur Rail Services services in New South Wales. In March 2007, the company was sold to Coote Industrial. In May 2010, Coote Industrial sold South Spur Rail Services to P&O Trans Australia. P&O was in turn was acquired by Qube Holdings.

Hey man, thanks for your welcome. Well, I haven't really made any major contributions to Wiki, so bleah. Anyways, I will read through the links you sent me.

Hi Ryan, thanks for your welcome. If you're not busy, would you mind looking over my contribs and seeing if I'm following all the rules and being precise in how I comment edits, edit the right section, make interwiki links properly, etc? I'd certainly like to hear if I'm going about something the wrong way or there is a better way and wouldn't take it personally. Thanks, --Lucent 21:46, August 6, 2005 (UTC)

fussing w/ funky footnotes -- not!
 I looked over the post you made on Stairway. If you feel that strongly about it, you can go ahead and remove the link. If there are any disputes about it, it can be discussed on the talk page. Ryan 18:39, August 6, 2005 (UTC)

thanks, ryan, for encouragement to join the fray.

i scanned some of the other references in Stairway, and the quality is distinctly uneven, at best.

funky footnotes aside, the bulk of the material on stairs is not all that bad. matter of fact, the wiki entry is head and shoulders above any of its cited source material -- even if it did not succinctly address my particular query, the answer to which google located elsewhere.

for me, the catch here is that i happen to be a competant copy editor with experience writing on architecture, and it is a topic that tends to excite my passions. there is a strong chance that a polish for clarity might improve the article. nor would ferreting a few superior supporting links be a bad idea, either. no way could i content myself with merely the fixing of one foul footnote.

but that would mean learning the wiki style sheet, the weird mark-up and buddha-knows-what other conventions, not to mention a measure of plain old work practicing the writer's craft. all-in-all, tweaking the thing toward perfection adds up to a hefty investment of time and effort that yields minimal benefit for me or anyone else.

and as i said, the piece is far from a fiasco, as it stands.

all that said, if in the future i stumble across something on wikipedia that really offends my sensibilities, i'll have at it.

I wanted to let you know of a change I made to an edit of yours, and explain my reasoning. When you reverted some vandalism to the test3 template, you added a sentence creating a link to the Sandbox. I removed the Sandbox link from the Template. My feeling is that by the time youre using this Template, the edits in question are beyond the stage of potential tests, that's what the earlier test templates are for, so by this time there's not as much point having the Sandbox link, in my opinion.

Goodbye & Thanks for all the Fish
Just wanted to repeat my thanks for the welcome, I loved the fact that there was a welcome committee, it made me determined to try and create a number of good articles.... I envisaged investing significant time into the Wiki enterprise...

What you didn't warn me about was that the Helpers (I hoped for: Early Trainer, Coach and Mentor) roles are not as proactive as your welcome role, WHEREAS the Nihilists who jump around dropping "WIKIFY"? Templates with absolutely no explanation or helpfull comments are positively Hyperactive!! I experienced other such unhelpful to newbies templates being parachuted into my early admittedly poor quality attempts, again without any helpfull hints. Worse the Delete Template was quite a shock on my return from vacation. I found I had already gained 3 delete votes in my absence, so I spent 6 hours learning the expectations of good WIKI pages and words like POVing! and editing the page of De-Perimeterisation till it was half decent (or so I thought, I'd certainly got rid of the POVing!!) only to find this evening that it has been deleted. Your welcome notes remain the only communications in my wikipage....

So I thank you again for your welcome and politely and hopefully without too much rancour, I say goodbye to Wiki. I was ready, willing and "able" to learn! I mistakenly believed that "victimised" was a Bootcamp term for recruit. I hadn't realised that Wiki is turning into a massive Gaming Zone that involves Newbie "Victims" and Nazi "Admins".

I don't want to play.... Bye Adrius42 19:17, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Response to your welcoming.
Thank you for the message. I've been using wikis for several years now, and Wikipedia for at least two. I have only recently had the opportunity (which will end in a few weeks, beginning again perhaps in November) to edit more frequently and so gave myself a username. Unfortunately, my access to computers is extremely limited most of the time, so I'll be a sporadic Wikipedian at best.

Thanks again for the welcome. --Blackcap 00:50, August 17, 2005 (UTC)

For your help last August 5. It was so kind of you. I just opened my account again today. It's so nice to hear that I have other Roman Catholics here. My friends will like to hear this news. Thanks again! Cabanes 01:31, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome
I'm noticing you get a lot of thanks here ;)...Amren 02:31, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Thank you too
Thanks for the welcome. I'm mostly a casual user, but I browse around here near daily, as does my girlfriend. I'd like to contribute more, but I work alot and am just a student, off for the summer.

Returned the favor
Requests for adminship/Lupin. I defended ya back ;) Redwolf24 09:34, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome!
My name is Peter (aka Flehmen). I'd like to thank you for your welcome. I have found that usually it is hard to break into a site (message boards) without "paying your dues"

You might have noticed that I've jumped in with both feet and already have created a disambiguation page, and did some work on eyepieces with more to come. Wiki is surprisingly complex but, as long as you can track down the information, easy to use. BTW, knew about the (~~~~) thing and had already looked at How to edit a page, Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial, Picture tutorial. I had thought that I had read over How to write a great article but apparently I hadn't so I'll be doing that today. I find that one of the best ways to create good work is by finding something that looks good, clean, and informative and then using alt-e to take a look at the innards in edit mode.

I'd appreciate any comments you might have on my wiki-style and wiki-philosophy if you have a few moments to spare. A link to a talk page that has some newbies and some oldbies on it in actual discussion would be great too. :)

Thanks once again for the welcome and, yes, contributing to the wiki world is exciting and sometimes even a little scary. I find that if I let myself stop to think about what the wikipedia could become, and how information is created(well perhaps not created, but captured) in todays world I can see how important every good contribution is.

P.S. Here is a trick I found out yesterday that you might find of use as I noticed you didn't use it in your message to me. User:Flehmen gives the same output as Flehmen. Hope that's a tip you can use now I have to get to work!

Take care! Flehmen 11:39, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Chiricahua

Introduction edits
Trying to define the Apache group of bands called "Chiricahua" is difficult for several reasons. The names of the bands and their general location has changed over the last 500 years. Other Native and non-Native Americans had something to do with this fact. Groups with an European ancestry tended to think of these bands as a "country/state" kind of organization they were familiar with, rather than a group defined by customs and alliances of it's bands and sub-bands. History tends to be re-told by the living with their own perspectives.

I rewrote the introduction on this page to keep it simple. Rcollman (talk) 12:11, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Comments on whole page
With all due respect to every contributor to this page, it is very confusing. I appreciate that the band name, leader of the band or leader of the alliance of bands is important to some people. For me, the shifting alliances of sub-bands over time, is part of what makes the these people who they are. Outsiders would label an alliance and then 30 years later, would have to come up with another name for a slightly different alliance. The bands or their individual members were not confused about who they were or who they were aligned with at any given time.

My suggestions: the "history" is easier to read because it follows a time line. I think the individual biographies are interesting. Both sections probably need some sort of general statement that qualifies band names as being more or less correct for that point in time. I would like to see kinship and alternative names stated in a consistent manner. I suggest deleting the brackets that indicate a page link when none exist. While I know a little about 19th century history in the Southwest, I am not bold enough to suggest content changes Rcollman (talk) 12:48, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

2001 FA Cup final

The 2001 FA Cup final was a football match between Arsenal and Liverpool on 12 May 2001 at the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff. It was the final match of the 2000–01 FA Cup, the 120th season of the world's oldest football knockout competition, the FA Cup, and the first in the competition's history to be staged outside England, due to the ongoing reconstruction of its usual venue, Wembley Stadium. Arsenal appeared in their fourteenth final to Liverpool's twelfth.

Given both teams were in the highest tier of English football, the Premier League, they entered the competition in the third round. Each needed to progress through five rounds to reach the final. Arsenal's progress was relatively comfortable; after scoring six past Queens Park Rangers, they knocked out holders Chelsea in the fifth round and later came from behind to beat local rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the semi-final. Liverpool by contrast made hard work of overcoming lower-league opponents Tranmere Rovers and Wycombe Wanderers in the latter rounds of the competition. The final marked the first time that two managers born outside the British Isles had met in an FA Cup final – French compatriots Arsène Wenger and Gérard Houllier.

The match followed a familiar pattern of Arsenal dictating the pace and creating chances, but failing to breach the Liverpool defence. Arsenal had a penalty appeal turned down in the first half, when defender Stéphane Henchoz was judged not to have handled the ball to deny Thierry Henry a goalscoring opportunity. Henchoz's partner Sami Hyypiä made a series of goalline clearances during the second half, but was helpless to stop Arsenal taking the lead in the 72nd minute. Liverpool responded by making changes and equalised in the 83rd minute; Arsenal's failure to deal with a free-kick presented Michael Owen the chance to score. Owen then outpaced Lee Dixon and Tony Adams to score his second and the match winner, two minutes before the end of normal time. Liverpool's victory marked the second part of their unique treble of the 2000–01 season: they had won the League Cup in late February and added the UEFA Cup four days later.

As of 2021, this is the most recent time Arsenal have lost an FA Cup final, having won their next 7 appearances in a row. (2002, 2003, 2005, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2020)

Route to the final
The FA Cup is English football's primary cup competition. Clubs in the Premier League enter the FA Cup in the third round and are drawn randomly out of a hat with the remaining clubs. If a match is drawn, a replay comes into force, ordinarily at the ground of the team who were away for the first game. As with league fixtures, FA Cup matches are subject to change in the event of games being selected for television coverage and this often can be influenced by clashes with other competitions. This was the first season that The Football Association introduced guidelines to prevent the withdrawal of clubs from the competition. The final was scheduled a week before the final weekend of the Premier League, to aid any successful club playing European football.

Arsenal
Arsenal entered the competition in the third round and their cup run started with an away tie against Carlisle United. Although the home side created numerous chances in the opening minutes and looked likeliest to score, Arsenal took the lead in the 22nd minute through Sylvain Wiltord. Poor finishing from both teams thereafter meant Arsenal progressed by a slender scoreline. In the fourth round, Arsenal faced Queens Park Rangers at Loftus Road. The visitors' first goal came around the half-hour mark; defender Ashley Cole cleared Peter Crouch's goal-bound header and from that Arsenal launched a counterattack. Lee Dixon's cross inadvertently met Chris Plummer who scored an own goal. Wiltord extended Arsenal's lead a minute later, and QPR conceded another own goal early in the second half which sealed the tie in the visitors' favour. Arsenal finished as comfortable 6–0 winners, representing the club's best away win in the FA Cup for 64 years.

In the fifth round, Arsenal played the cup holders Chelsea at home. Throughout the tie, Arsenal's centre-back partnership of Oleh Luzhnyi and Igors Stepanovs struggled against the pace of Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, who equalised for Chelsea after Thierry Henry gave the home side the lead. Wiltord replaced Robert Pires in the second half and scored twice to settle the match. In the sixth round, Arsenal enjoyed a comfortable win against Blackburn Rovers of the First Division, where Wiltord continued his run scoring in each round of the competition.

Arsenal faced Tottenham Hotspur in the semi-final and it was their local rivals who had taken the lead in the 14th minute. Patrick Vieira equalised just after Tottenham captain Sol Campbell was taken off the pitch to receive treatment. Tottenham managed to withstand pressure from Arsenal for most of the second half, but came unstuck in the 73rd minute when Pires scored the decisive goal.

Liverpool
Liverpool entered the competition in the third round, where they were drawn against Second Division side Rotherham United at home. Igor Bišćan was sent off in the tie for a second bookable offence, moments after Emile Heskey had scored. Dietmar Hamann extended Liverpool's lead in the 73rd minute and a further goal by Heskey ensured their progress in the competition.

Liverpool's opponent in the fourth round was Leeds United. The match was played at Elland Road on 27 January 2001 in front of a near-capacity crowd of 37,108. The home team enjoyed much of the possession, but struggled to find a breakthrough as Liverpool's defence stood firm. Two minutes before full-time, Barmby, on as a substitute, scored the winning goal, rebounding a shot that came off the post. Barmby then turned provider for Liverpool's second, setting-up Heskey to score.

Anfield hosted Manchester City in the fifth round. It was the start of a decisive week for Liverpool, as they faced Roma midweek in the UEFA Cup, then Birmingham City in the 2001 Football League Cup final. Liverpool were awarded a penalty after five minutes, as goalkeeper Nicky Weaver fouled Vladimír Šmicer inside the 18-yard box. Jari Litmanen converted the spot kick to give Liverpool the lead, which quickly became 2–0 when Heskey's shot found its way past Weaver. Andrei Kanchelskis' goal in the 28th minute halved the scoreline, but Šmicer and Markus Babbel each scored in the second half to put Liverpool in a commanding lead. City persisted and in stoppage time scored their second goal of the match; Shaun Goater's deflected shot did enough to beat goalkeeper Sander Westerveld.

Liverpool travelled to Prenton Park to play Tranmere Rovers in the sixth round. Danny Murphy and Michael Owen each scored in a first half in which the visitors dominated play. Steve Yates pulled a goal back for Tranmere after half-time, but in the 52nd minute Steven Gerrard headed-in a cross to restore Liverpool's two-goal advantage. A mistake by Robbie Fowler gifted substitute Wayne Allison the chance to score, but the striker made amends as he converted a penalty kick in the 81st minute. In the semi-final, Liverpool faced Wycombe Wanderers at Villa Park. Goals from Heskey and Fowler and a consolation scored by Wycombe's captain Keith Ryan ensured Liverpool won 2–1 and earnt a place in the final.

Stadium changes
In October 2000, Wembley Stadium, the final's traditional venue, was closed in anticipation of major redevelopment. Having considered alternative venues such as Twickenham, Murrayfield and Villa Park, the FA announced in January 2001 that the next three Cup finals would be staged at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium. This therefore marked the first time the showpiece event was held outside England. In the lead-up to the final, FA chief executive Adam Crozier acknowledged concerns over transport and the quality of the pitch, saying, "We've done a lot of work with Cardiff and hopefully it will be a great occasion, but we'll take a view about how it's worked after the final and decide whether to still hold the match there." A new pitch was re-laid in May, and the police made attempts to ease traffic on the M4 by opening three more turn-offs than they did for the League Cup final.

The finalists received a total allocation of approximately 52,000 tickets, which was an estimated increase of 10% on previous Wembley finals. Seat prices for the final exceeded £70, though some ticket touts charged as much as £1,000. The cheapest tickets cost £20; the rest were priced at £40 and £55.

Build-up
Arsenal were appearing in the final of the FA Cup for the 14th time, their first in over three years. They had won the cup seven times previously (in 1930, 1936, 1950, 1971, 1979, 1993 and 1998) and were beaten in the final six times. By comparison, Liverpool were making their 12th appearance in a FA Cup final. The club won the cup five times (in 1965, 1974, 1986, 1989, 1992) and lost six finals, most recent of which against Manchester United in 1996. Arsenal and Liverpool had previously met thirteen times in the FA Cup, including four replays. Arsenal had a slender advantage in those meetings, winning five times to Liverpool's four. Both clubs were involved in the longest ever semi-final in FA Cup history in 1980, which required three replays after the original tie ended goalless. Brian Talbot's goal at Highfield Road earnt Arsenal a 1–0 victory.

The last meeting between the two teams had been in the Premier League on 23 December 2000. Liverpool recorded a 4–0 win at Anfield, their third-straight victory in all competitions. Gérard Houllier, the manager of Liverpool, enjoyed success in the cup competitions during the 2000–01 season; under his management, the club ended their six-year spell without silverware by winning the League Cup, and in the calendar year defeated Roma, Porto and Barcelona to reach the 2001 UEFA Cup final. Houllier was indifferent that his side were considered the underdogs in the FA Cup final, and told reporters, "We have great work ethic and team ethic. There is a great desire to achieve something as a club." He confirmed in his pre-match press conference that Heskey would start the final, though had yet to make a final decision over who would partner the England forward.

Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger admitted his team had underachieved during the season, but took criticism of failing to challenge Manchester United in the league and progressing further in the UEFA Champions League as a "compliment to the club". He spoke in favour of moving FA Cup ties midweek to prevent fixture congestion, because the current system was too demanding for the big clubs: "In England a team that goes for the FA Cup automatically has a problem in the championship, especially if they play in the Champions League. There are then so many games something has to be sacrificed and I have sacrificed points in the championship to the FA Cup." When asked whether reducing the number of teams in the UEFA Champions League would help, Wenger commented it "... would mean less money and no one with the wages we pay can accept a drop in income. As for cutting the Premiership – they have done that in France and now those teams not involved in the cups are complaining."

The match attracted considerable media interest because of the number of foreigners involved. It marked the first time that the two managers of opposing sides were born outside the British Isles, and it was anticipated the final would receive a large overseas audience because of the inclusion of several international players. Broadcast in 70 countries, viewing figures for the match totalled close to 600 million.

Summary
Both clubs lined up in a traditional 4–4–2 formation: a four-man defence (comprising two centre-backs and left and right full-backs), four midfielders (two in the centre, and one on each wing) and two centre forwards. Wenger opted to pair Gilles Grimandi with Vieira in midfield and Wiltord up front with Henry, leaving Bergkamp on the substitutes' bench. Ashley Cole played in defence, ahead of Sylvinho, who did not feature in the matchday squad. For Liverpool, Houllier named Owen in the starting line-up, and chose Šmicer and Murphy to play in midfield. Gary McAllister, Patrik Berger and Fowler began the final as substitutes.

Arsenal in their usual home strip of red shirts and white shorts kicked off the match and immediately won a corner, which was dealt with by Westerveld. A run by Heskey six minutes later resulted in the player taking a tumble under Gilles Grimandi's challenge, but his appeals for a penalty were ignored by referee Dunn. Arsenal began to dominate play, with Vieira at the heart of their best moves. The midfielder won a challenge with Heskey in the 17th minute and sent the ball in the direction of Freddie Ljungberg, who in turn passed it to Henry. The Frenchman went around Westerveld and shot the ball goalwards, which was cleared off the line by Stéphane Henchoz. Television replays later showed the ball hitting Henchoz's arm before going wide; although Henry appealed for a penalty, it was turned down as the incident was missed by both the referee and his assistant. Owen came close to scoring in the 20th minute, but for his shot to be blocked by Martin Keown. Arsenal continued to find the best openings, but struggled to split open the Liverpool defence. A long range effort by Grimandi was easily saved by Westerveld as the final approached the half-hour mark, and a duel between Wiltord and Jamie Carragher on the right side resulted in a Liverpool corner. Two minutes before the interval Henry was penalised for drifting into an offside position, having collected a long pass.

Liverpool resumed play and won a free-kick in the 48th minute; Murphy's delivery found Heskey, whose header forced a save from David Seaman. Arsenal enjoyed their best spell of the match soon afterwards, but failed to make use of their set-pieces. A free-kick taken by Pires was easily handled by Westerveld, and nothing came out of the resulting corner. Pires and Henry combined in attack for Arsenal and the latter came close to scoring, had the Liverpool goalkeeper not intervened. The ball rebounded to Cole who shot goalwards, but Sami Hyypiä cleared off the line. Hamann was shown a yellow card for fouling Vieira in the 57th minute, and Houllier responded by replacing him with McAllister four minutes later. The change had the desired effect as it brought composure to Liverpool's play, particularly in midfield. In the 62nd minute Ljungberg received a yellow card for a challenge on Šmicer. Arsenal squandered another chance, this time two minutes before the 70; Henry outpaced Henchoz and his rebounded shot found Ljungberg in the penalty area. The midfielder's effort, a chip over the advancing Westerveld, was cleared off the line by Hyypiä.

With 19 minutes left, Arsenal finally scored. A poor clearance by Westerveld fell to Grimandi, who passed the ball to Pires. Ljungberg received it and rounded the goalkeeper to score, much to Wenger's delight. Henry missed a chance to give Arsenal a two-goal lead in the 74th minute, as his shot was point-blank saved by Westerveld and on the follow-up cleared by Hyypiä. Both managers made changes in the final period of the game; Ray Parlour came on for Wiltord in order to protect Arsenal's lead, whereas Liverpool made an attacking double substitution – Fowler and Berger on for Šmicer and Murphy. Liverpool survived the onslaught and found a foothold in the game when Owen equalised with eight minutes left. Arsenal failed to clear substitute McAllister's free-kick, and Owen pounced with a right-foot finish past Seaman from eight yards. Liverpool's comeback was completed six minutes later in the 88th minute, with extra time looming; Owen was released down the left by a weighted long ball pass from Berger, with the type of vision which had been earlier missing from their play, and he outpaced both Tony Adams and Dixon before shooting low and accurately past Seaman, beating him at the far post. Liverpool held on to their lead for the few minutes remaining to win the final.

Post-match and aftermath
Houllier was disappointed with Liverpool's start and noticed his players struggled with the humidity. He nevertheless saw set-pieces as an opportunity to score goals from and felt the equaliser turned the final in his team's favour: "Suddenly the confidence switches to the other camp. They're affected, they become a bit unsettled, and you keep going." Houllier revealed he gave a frank assessment of the task facing his players before the match; although in his words Arsenal were "... probably a bit better than us, probably more mature, more experienced, more ability in some areas", dealing with setbacks would make the difference on the day. He dismissed accusations that Liverpool were boring, rather describing his team as difficult to beat. Owen, the match winner, felt he answered his critics by scoring left-footed: "It's nice to prove people wrong when they say you haven't got a left foot. I was supposed to be the worst header and the worst player with my left foot in the league, and how could an England player play when they haven't got a left foot. ... It does go to show that I have improved and I am improving." Wenger lamented Arsenal's inability to make possession count, saying: "It has happened all season. We don't finish." He criticised the referee for not sending off Henchoz, especially as linesman Kevin Pike told him the Liverpool defender had committed a foul. On reflection of the season, Wenger disagreed it was one of failure – "It is not easy to get to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, the final of the FA Cup and to finish in the top three of the Premiership in the same season", but admitted he needed to make signings to strengthen the squad. Henry called for changes to Arsenal's forward line and felt the team would benefit from a "fox in the box", a player who would stay in and around the penalty area to score. "When I make wide runs and put in crosses there is often no-one there to put the ball in the net. Owen was the hero because he is always in the right place. We need a goalscorer like that", he concluded.

Journalists and pundits reviewing the final praised Liverpool's tenacity; radio commentator Alan Green wrote in his News Letter column of 14 May 2001: "Simply, they never give up and when you have a player like Michael Owen within your ranks you believe that any situation can be rescued, as it was in the magnificent Millennium Stadium." The Guardian correspondent David Lacey declared "The Owen of France '98 was reborn in Cardiff," while Hugh McIlvanney of The Sunday Times called Owen "the master executioner of English football." McIlvanney felt over the 90 minutes the Arsenal team were "unlucky to lose", lauding Vieira's show in midfield. James Lawton's match report in The Independent was not as empathetic; although in praise of Henry's performance his indecision compared to Owen, demonstrated how "effect, not style, is everything" in football. Clive White of The Herald criticised Henry's lack of end product, using the final and Arsenal's European failure against Valencia to demonstrate how he would never be considered a "natural goalscorer". Ron Atkinson, writing in his tactics column for The Guardian noted Liverpool's winning goal only came about because of Arsenal's eagerness to attack, which left gaps in defence.

The final was broadcast live in the United Kingdom by both ITV and Sky Sports, with the former providing free-to-air coverage and Sky Sports 2 being the pay-TV alternative. ITV held the majority of the viewership, with an overnight peak audience of 7.8 million viewers. Four days after the final Liverpool beat Alavés by five goals to four, to win the UEFA Cup and complete a treble of cup victories. Victory against Charlton Athletic on 20 May 2001 ensured Liverpool finished third in the Premier League and with that earn a place in the 2001–02 UEFA Champions League. Arsenal ended the season as league runners-up; a draw against Newcastle United was enough for them to secure second spot.

In his autobiography released a few years later, Gerrard reflected that Liverpool were fortunate to win, but was critical of Arsenal's "bitter" reaction: "Wenger and Ljungberg kept complaining about the hand-balls. Get real, boys. That's football. Grow up." He reserved special praise for his opponent Vieira however, saying a few days after the game: "It was my job to try and stop him, but he definitely got the better of me that day. He's such a great player. He's so fit, and he dictates the pace of a game. There are a lot of things you can learn just by watching him." Assessing his career in a column for the Telegraph, Owen wrote that winning the cup was "...the best day of my career, the game I look back on more than any other and think it was the most exhilarating experience I ever had playing football."

Category talk:American people of Russian descent

Untitled
The category strongly intersects with Category:Russian people in the United States but somehow different: Should we merge the categories, make one a subcategory of the other or keep both? abakharev 03:31, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * 1) Category:Russian-Americans is for Americans of Russian ethinic background, it probably should not include Jews, Ukrainians, etc.
 * 2) It also exludes Russians who did not receive American passport.
 * 3) On the other hand it includes people with little connection to Russian culture who probably  does not qualify to be Russians in  America (like Saul Bellow) but has Russian ancestors.

No one on this list is actually Russian, all these "Russian" Americans are Jews.
 * Well, Vladimir Nabokov is certainly not a Jew but a Russian nobleman, but yes, most of the people in the category are not ethnical Russians but Askkenazi Jews (mostly Litvaks) abakharev 04:59, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

Category description
unilaterally decided to impose his interpretation of this category by changing its description, without discussion, from "American people who immigrated to the United States from Russia and their descendants" to "American people who immigrated to the United States from Russia, or who are described in reliable sources as being 'Russian-American'". I oppose this change and invite others to discuss here. Ward3001 (talk) 18:45, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, Wikipedia is the encyclopedia anyone can edit. In any event, Category definitions, like everything else in Wikipedia, must comply with WP:V, WP:NOR, and WP:BLP. That means that Wikipedia editors don't decide who is "Russian-American"; rather, reliable sources do, and, when it comes to biographies of living people, we immediately remove the category if there are no reliable sources that state a person is a "Russian-American". Jayjg (talk) 18:57, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Please give us the specific statements in WP:BLP that prohibit the Category:Russian-Americans from including people who are descendants of Russians who immigrated to the United States, if it is reliably sourced that a person is such a descendant. Ward3001 (talk) 19:04, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
 * This is not Category:Descendants of Russian immigrants to America. This is Category:Russian-Americans. Therefore, rather than finding sources that say they are descended from people who emigrated from Russia to America, you need sources describing them as "Russian-Americans". You have not produced any reliable sources doing so. The specific statements in the policy are clear:
 * "Editors must take particular care adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page. Such material requires a high degree of sensitivity, and must adhere strictly to all applicable laws in the United States and to all of our content policies, especially Neutral point of view (NPOV); Verifiability; No original research"
 * It's hard to miss, it's the first paragraph. Jayjg (talk) 19:17, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

No, no, no, Jayjg. That's your interpretation of BLP as well as your interpretation of the term "Russian-American". I think if you look around, you'll see many people described on Wikipedia as "Italian-American" who are several generations away from their ancestors who were Italian citizens. You'll see people described as African-American who also are many generations from Africa, and NOT because they are ethnically "Negro", but because they are American citizens whose ancestors lived in Africa. I want the specific words in WP:BLP that prohibits inclusion of grandchildren of Russians who immigrated to the United States. You alone do not decide how to intepret BLP. As has been pointed out on another page, you are an administrator, not God. You're not even Jimbo. So please give the specific wording that prohibits including granchildren. If you can't give us that, then we are all quibbling about interpretation, not "violation of content policies". If you continue this POV-pushing and air of superiority because you're an admin, we'll just have to take this to a discussion board about BLP. Ward3001 (talk) 19:28, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Whenever an issue is raised regarding WP:BLP and correct sourcing, then we don't need to waste a lot of time arguing about interpretations. All we do is look at the source, and see if it is a) reliable, and b) clearly states what has been included in the article. Does the source clearly state a person is "African-American" or "Italian-American" or "Russian-American"? If so, great, use the category. If not, it stays out. Regarding the rest, yes, you have made many personal comments about me here and on other pages. Stop doing so. Comment on content, not on the contributor.. Jayjg (talk) 19:34, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

I'll stop commenting on the contributor if the contributor behaves like a reasonable editor rather than supreme ruler of Wikipedia. And you still have not given us the words in WP:BLP that excludes grandchildren. Ward3001 (talk) 19:36, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Regarding the second sentence, I don't have to show you a special "grandchildren" policy; rather, you need to find a reliable source describing the person as "Russian-American", per WP:V, WP:NOR, and especially WP:BLP. See also Rob's comments. Regarding the first, Comment on content, not on the contributor. No excuses. Jayjg (talk) 19:52, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

A category can only have one name on Wikipedia, whereas there may be many ways of describing the same thing. For example there are many Jewish actors, and a category by that name, but it's often harder to find an article from a reliable source that uses the exact phrase "Jewish actor". This does not matter. If any reliable source says jewish and any reliable source says actor, then you have a jewish actor. This is neither unsourced, nor original research, nor should it be contentious. It does not in any way violate WP:BLP or WP:V. In the same manner, no one has to find a source that uses the exact phrase "Russian-American". You just have to find, through reliable sources, that the person is a) American and b) of Russian descent. To demand that sources have use the exact name chosen for a Wikipedia category, according to Wikipedia naming policies, i ludicrous. Biographies_of_living_persons says: "The article must state the facts that result in the use of the category tag and these facts must be sourced." That is to say: The information content must be sourced; there's no requirement for a source using the exact same term or phrase. -Duribald (talk) 23:20, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
 * If you have two sources, one of which says a person is "Jewish", and another that he is an "actor", then you can add the Category "Jewish actor". Similarly, if you have two sources, one of which says the person is "Russian", and the other that the person is "American", then you can add the Category "Russian-American". However, what you cannot do, for example, is take a source which says the person has two paternal grandparents who are "Russian Jews" who emigrated to America, and add the category "Russian-American" to that individual.
