Small articles
Hello. Please consider refraining from creating several small articles at a time. It's confusing to readers. Will all these thirteen houses, for example, likely grow to be good articles? -- Perfecto 02:02, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Yes, in fact. I intend to expand upon them as soon as I've double-checked all of my information. Some will have less information than others, but as the fourth book in the series will be out in a few months, there's no telling how much more information may be learned then about any or all of the Houses.

Alyx Bradford 02:13, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Alright then. I look forward to it. Thank you! -- Perfecto 02:51, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Good luck with the Kushiel's Legacy articles; good work so far!

 * Serein 10:52, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

I'm a big fan of this series, and yet... it is not quite as important to literary history as, say, the Lord of the Rings trilogy. There are a LOT of articles, as was pointed out above, and your answer was hang on, they were going to get expanded. Several months have went by and the articles are still mostly stubs. I had suggested a while back that some of the articles be merged, for example, the 12 houses could be merged into one article, the several noble houses could be merged, and all the characters except the top 6 or so into minor characters and so forth. I'd be willing to do some of the work. You can reply here.  + +Lar: t/c 17:53, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Just because it's not as large a fandom doesn't mean there isn't a demand for the information -- and I am going to get to expanding everything to include all the information I consider pertinent. It just takes a long time to go through each book. I think you can see that, in the few months that have passed, I've made quite a lot of progress. I suppose I just don't see why there's such a pressing need to condense everything. I may well need or want to condense things in the future, but I'd far rather wait until I've actually gotten everything up, and then see what articles can be merged together, rather than doing it now, when I've still got three books to get through (one of which only came out last week and I haven't even read yet), and then have to undo it later when I've new information to add. If you've read this series, you know how very many characters there are; there is a minor characters page, where I'm putting all the ones that really aren't of consequence, but I think to add in all the ones but the top six or so would make that article itself ridiculously large -- probably well beyond the maximum character limit. And cutting out all that information would, I think, be a mistake. I aim to make these articles as comprehensive as the ones for larger fandoms are; just because there are fewer people seeking this information doesn't mean they should get any less.

Notability of Phèdre's Boys
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Phèdre's Boys, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Phèdre's Boys seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it 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 assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Phèdre's Boys, please affix the template to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 19:27, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Miles City Airport

Miles City Airport or Frank Wiley Field is a city-owned airport two miles northwest of Miles City, in Custer County, Montana, United States. The airport was served by one airline, subsidized by the Essential Air Service program. EAS subsidies ended on July 15, 2013, due to subsidy per passenger exceeding $1000, leaving Miles City without scheduled air service.

Federal Aviation Administration records say the airport had 264 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008, 891 in 2009 and 1,033 in 2010. The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015 called it a general aviation airport (the commercial service category requires 2,500 enplanements per year).

Scheduled air service temporarily ceased on March 8, 2008, when Big Sky Airlines ended operations in bankruptcy. Great Lakes Airlines was given USDOT approval to take over Essential Air Service (EAS) and flights began in 2009. From 2011 to 2013, service had been provided under EAS contract by Silver Airways (formerly Gulfstream International Airlines).

Facilities
Frank Wiley Field covers 1640 acre at an elevation of 2630 ft above sea level. It has two asphalt runways: 4/22 is 5680 by and 13/31 is 5628 by.

In 2009, the airport had 11,200 aircraft operations, average 30 per day: 71% general aviation and 29% air taxi. 20 aircraft were then based at this airport: 90% single-engine and 10% multi-engine.

Historical airline service
The first known commercial air service to Miles City was provided by Mamer Air Transport in 1930. Mamer used Ford trimotor aircraft on a route between Spokane and Minneapolis/St. Paul making multiple stops.

Northwest Airlines then served Miles City as one of multiple stops along the carrier's mainline route between Seattle and Chicago from the early 1930s until 1954. The mainline route was extended eastward to New York and Washington D.C. by 1950. Northwest flew Lockheed Model 10 Electra followed by Douglas DC-3 aircraft for its service to Miles City.

Frontier Airlines (1950-1986) served the airport from 1954 until 1980 with flights to Billings and Bismarck. Some flights to Billings would continue onto Salt Lake City via multiple stops. Douglas DC-3 prop and Convair 580 turboprop aircraft were used. Combs Aviation also provided service to Miles City from 1968 through 1970 with Aero Commander 500 twin prop aircraft on behalf of Frontier via a contract agreement, and for a period in 1970, Frontier contracted all of its Miles City service to Combs. Combs then ended their contract service and Frontier returned in 1971 using de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter turboprop aircraft.

Big Sky Airlines provided turboprop service to Billings from 1980 until 2008 using Fairchild Swearingen Metroliner commuter aircraft followed by Beech 1900D commuter aircraft.

Great Lakes Airlines flew from Miles City to Denver with one stop at Gillette, WY using Beech 1900D aircraft from 2008 through mid-2011.

Silver Airways was the final carrier providing service to Billings from 2011 until all service ended on July 15, 2013, after government subsidies were cancelled due to a lack of passenger traffic. Silver also flew Beech 1900D aircraft.

Accidents

 * Northwest Airlines Flight 1 – Lockheed Super Electra – January 13, 1938
 * Northwest Airlines Flight 1 – Douglas DC-3A – May 12, 1942
 * Frontier Airlines Flight 32 – Douglas DC-3C – March 12, 1964

Other sources

 * Essential Air Service documents (Docket OST-1997-2605) from the U.S. Department of Transportation:
 * Order 2005-12-20: selecting Big Sky Transportation Co., d/b/a Big Sky Airlines, to continue providing essential air service at seven Montana communities (Glasgow, Glendive, Havre, Lewistown, Miles City, Sidney, and Wolf Point) for a new two-year period beginning March 1, 2006, at a subsidy of $6,838,934 annually.
 * Order 2007-11-21: selecting Big Sky Transportation Co., d/b/a Big Sky Airlines, to continue providing essential air service at seven Montana communities for a new two-year period beginning March 1, 2008, at a subsidy of $8,473,617 annually.
 * Order 2007-12-22: allowing Big Sky Transportation Co., d/b/a Big Sky Airlines, to suspend its subsidized essential air services at seven Montana communities on the date that Great Lakes Aviation, Ltd., begins replacement service, and selecting Great Lakes to provide those services at subsidy rates totaling $8,201,992.
 * Order 2008-7-9: approving an alternate service pattern requested by Lewistown, Miles City and Sidney, Montana.
 * Order 2011-1-27: selecting Gulfstream International Airlines, to provide subsidized essential air service (EAS) with 19-passenger Beechcraft B-1900D aircraft at Glasgow, Glendive, Havre, Lewistown, Miles City, Sidney, and Wolf Point, Montana, for a two-year period beginning when the carrier inaugurates full EAS at all seven communities through the end of the 24th month thereafter, at a combined annual subsidy rate of $10,903,854.

Cleanup and NPOV
This is nothing but fan zeal and is badly in need of cleanup—if it should be kept at all. "[t]he significance of 4 Hero for much of the development of British dance music over the last decade-and-half cannot be understated." I heartily concur. --Tysto 06:08, 2005 August 21 (UTC)

 * ha ha, funny... MisterSheik

 * I've cleaned it up, and hopefully removed the POV from it. I think it should be kept though - they are MOBO winners, after all. That should be sufficient to assert notablity. KeithD (talk) 13:20, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Untitled
I removed the dog info again - it really seems quite a trivial piece of information. I think it could work, but only if it is used to tell the reader about Cox; i.e., "Cox and her husband enjoy spending time with their chocolate lab Jake". As it stands, it is of no more relevance than saying that "Cox owns a BMW". Ataru 06:08, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
 * While I dispute that pets are trivial, I concede after research that it is an unwritten Wikipedia convention that pets of politicians are not mentioned in articles, as I am having a hard time finding a counterexample. I also commend you on a great job re-organizing the article. ⇝Casito⇝Talk 07:51, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Case
A large portion of this article is dedicated to once case concerning 63 votes. This is more relevant to the fraternity than it is to the life of Cathy Cox. An analagous case would be a steve irwin article would speak about his death by a stingray, but an article about a stingray really mention that one of them had contributed to his death. A is more relavent to B than B is to A.  This is a direct copy and paste from the Alpha Phi Alpha article, and was posted by Ccson here "http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cathy_Cox&diff=61487547&oldid=60413057"  Ccson though is a member of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Ccson"  and is listed in the Alpha Phi Alpha talk page as "following users are active in maintaining and improving this article.

 * The following part of this information is what makes it seem relevant to me for the Secretary of State's page: "A Senior U.S. District Judge upheld earlier federal court decisions in the case, and found that private entities have a right under the NVRA to engage in organized voter registration activity in Georgia at times and locations of their choosing, without the presence or permission of state or local election officials". The precedent, not the number of votes, is the interesting part, and it happened while Cox was in office. My $.02. I will agree that the paragraph needs to be rewritten and slimmed down and the rest of the article lengthened.--Roswell native 06:19, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

i'm going to use your quoted position. 172.193.93.172 10:14, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

2008 Speculation
I removed the line about Cox possibly challenging Saxby Chambliss in 2008. For one thing, she was not even popular enough with Democrats to get her party's nomination which makes the claims of her overwhelming popularity dubious. Secondly, she has consistently said that she is done with politics. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.19.95.126 (talk) 01:25, 22 March 2007 (UTC).

Leira
At the beginning of the discussion, there was a claim that the company had 38 billion dollars and employed almost 60,000 workers. I sincerely doubted the accuracy of those numbers. There were several edits during the discussion perhaps those edits removed the inaccuracies (which probably resulted from someone copying and pasting the info box and not changing all of the numbers). Several edits also reinstated copyrighted material from the company's website. TheRingess 15:36, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Donaldmckayledance.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add , without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria.

Unspecified source for Image:Katbjelland.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Katbjelland.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self-no-disclaimers tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Ain't That a Shame

"Ain't That a Shame" is a song written by Fats Domino and Dave Bartholomew. Domino's recording of the song, originally stated as "Ain't It a Shame", released by Imperial Records in 1955, was a hit, eventually selling a million copies. It reached number 1 on the Billboard R&B chart and number 10 on the pop chart. The song is ranked number 438 on Rolling Stone magazine's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list.

This recording was included in the debut Fats Domino album Rock and Rollin' with Fats Domino (1956) and next in the compilation Fats Domino Swings (12,000,000 Records) (1958). Later in 1963 the recording has been overdubbed by vocal chorus for the album Let's Dance with Domino (1963). In 1983 Fats Domino re-recorded the song; this recording was included in his last album Alive and Kickin' (2006) under the title "Ain't That a Shame 2000".

The song gained national fame after being covered by Pat Boone. Domino's version soon became more popular, bringing his music to the mass market a half-dozen years after his first recording, "The Fat Man". After "Ain't That a Shame", mainstream artists began covering Domino's songs. Teresa Brewer, for instance, performed Domino's version of the folk song "Bo Weevil".

The song has also been covered by The Four Seasons (1963), John Lennon (1975), Paul McCartney (1988) and most notably, Cheap Trick (1978), among others.

Pat Boone cover
Pat Boone recorded the song in May 1955, just after the release of Fats Domino's single. This recording was released in the same month on single under the title "Ain't That a Shame" and was included in his debut album Pat Boone (1956). According to some sources, Boone suggested changing the title and lyrics to "Isn't That a Shame" to make it more appealing to a broader audience but was dissuaded by his producers. Nevertheless, Boone's recording of the song was his first Billboard number-one single, spending two weeks as number one on the Billboard "Most Played in Jukeboxes" charts. Domino complimented Boone's cover of the song. Boone liked to tell a story about a concert at which Domino invited Boone on stage, showed a big gold ring and said: "Pat Boone bought me this ring," since Domino and Bartholomew, as the song's writers, received royalties on it from record sales or radio airplay of other performers' cover versions of their song.

Cheap Trick cover
Cheap Trick's version charted at number 35 after being released on their 1978 live album Cheap Trick at Budokan. Cash Box described it as a "superb rave-up of the Fats Domino classic." Reportedly, this was Fats Domino's favorite cover. Domino also gave Cheap Trick his gold record for his 1955 single, which is held by guitarist Rick Nielsen. Another live version of the song, recorded in 1999, was released on the 2001 album Silver.

Classic Rock critic Malcolm Dome rated it as Cheap Trick's 4th greatest song, saying that even though it's a cover, "the band effectively made it their own." Classic Rock History critic Michael Quinn rated it Cheap Trick's 8th best song, saying that it "starts off with more Bun E Carlos magic...then moves to a showcase of Rick Nielsen’s smarmy guitar work."

Cheap Trick performed the song live as the finale of the 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony. They were joined by Robert Lamm, James Pankow, Lee Loughnane and Walter Parazaider of Chicago, David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes of Deep Purple, Steve Miller, Sheryl Crow, Grace Potter, Steven Van Zandt, Rob Thomas and Paul Shaffer.

Other cover versions
A version of the song by the Four Seasons reached number 22 on the Billboard charts in 1963. It was included in their 1963 studio album Ain't That A Shame and 11 Others. Cash Box described it as "a raunchy, medium-paced, multi-dance romancer."

Other artists to have covered Domino's original version include Hank Williams, Jr. with the Mike Curb Congregation (1971). It reached #16 in Canada. It was also covered by Tanya Tucker on Lovin' and Learnin' (1976), Brownsville Station on their eponymous 1977 album, and Mud on their 1982 album Mud featuring Les Gray. On the other hand, Pat Torpey covered the Cheap Trick version on Odd Man Out: Y2K (1999).

In other media
Domino performed the song in the 1956 film Shake, Rattle & Rock!. The song is used in the films American Graffiti, October Sky, L.A. Story, School Ties and Mischief. It can be heard at the end of the Season Four finale of the television series The Shield. It was also included in the soundtrack for the 2010 video game Mafia II.

Bear vs. Shark

Bear vs. Shark are an American post-hardcore band from Highland, Michigan. They were founded in 2001 and disbanded in 2005 after releasing one EP and two full-length studio albums while signed to Equal Vision Records. The band later reunited for some shows in 2016.

Formation
The members of the group have known each other all their lives with some members forming friendships as early as pre-school. The band formed during their college years when the members were playing in separate projects. The group's original drummer Brandon Moss left the group and was replaced by Ashley Horak. The group has cited classic rock and punk as well as The Clash, Fugazi, and Motown as influences to the group's sound.

The group initially sent a demo to Equal Vision Records and a representative from the label flew out immediately to sign the group. Since the release of Right Now You're in the Best of Hands... the band has toured the United States extensively headlining & opening for other major acts such as Coheed and Cambria. The group quickly gained attention from fans and fellow musicians as well. The group is also known for their high-energy stage show most notably by Marc Paffi, who is known to move around the stage frantically during performances. Most of the band members also switched playing instruments during their sets, which was a regular occasion. Though it has been circulated that the band's name comes from the shape of Michigan, Gaviglio has said in an interview that they believed it was "super badass and sounded interesting."

Break-up
On December 21, 2005 the band posted on their website that they decided to call it quits. Although the band didn't cite any specific reason for the breakup John Gaviglio was featured in the April 2006 issue of Alternative Press where he did an op-ed piece on the hardships of touring extensively. The band has also been very vocal that they didn't like their touring conditions.

Reunion
On May 22, 2016 the band announced a reunion show to benefit Flintkids.org in Flint, Michigan, which later followed with a small string of additional dates. Equal Vision Records also released info on a re-issuing of the band's two full-length albums on a joint vinyl release.

On May 27, 2017 band played at Bled Fest festival.

Post Bear vs. Shark
The band contributed a track called "Victoria Iceberg" to the Masters of Horror Soundtrack.

Marc Paffi is also lead singer of Bars of Gold with fellow member Brandon Moss.

Mike Muldoon and John Gaviglio together with help of Mark Maynard have started a band project called Cannons, centralized in Brooklyn.

Right Now, You're in the Best of Hands... and Terrorhawk were released on vinyl by Friction Records, with Right Now, You're in the Best of Hands included two previously unreleased tracks, "California Hot Seat" (originally heard on the (1653 EP) and "June 7". Also, a special picture disc version of Terrorhawk was released, with artwork by Jeff VandenBerg.

Marc Paffi recorded vocals for the song "1999" on the band If He Dies He Dies release Conquistador on Friction Records.

Marc Paffi, Mike Muldoon, and Brandon Moss started a band together called Champions of History.

Brandon Moss is also a member of the band Wildcatting. In addition to Wildcatting, Brandon Moss also plays horns in Don't Stand So Close To Me, a jazz/fusion ensemble that mixes solid hits from The Police.

John Gaviglio played in Matthew Dear's Big Hands

Hi Tu160m. First off, congrats on a great aircraft page - always nice to see. Recently I got a message from ericg and the boys at wikiproject aircraft: it seems that they have dropped the blue fact box that you have on the Su-27 page. They have a template where you can put the info at the bottom, which you can see here template talk:aircontent. Maybe you already knew that, I don't know, but I thought I'd just pass it on to another aviation fundi. Again, nice work on the page!--Xiphon 18:22, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Ijt1.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ijt1.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL-self to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Sherool (talk) 18:31, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Arboria
I have added a "" template to the article Arboria, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. gadfium 18:22, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

James Wyatt (game designer)

James Wyatt (born c. 1968 ) is a game designer and a former United Methodist minister. He works for Wizards of the Coast, where he has designed supplements and adventures for the Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) roleplaying game. He is the author of sci-fi and fantasy novels, including Forgotten Realms books, and the 4th edition Dungeon Master's Guide.

Biography
Wyatt grew up in Ithaca, New York where he attended Ithaca High School, graduating in 1986. He had been playing role-playing games since the late 1970s, beginning with the first Basic D&D set: "I remember pretending to be a wizard in my backyard before I picked up the basic set... I used the monster statistics in the D&D books to give us wizards something to fight in our primitive backyard live-action roleplaying game." After high-school he attended Oberlin in Ohio as a religion major and graduated in 1990. He went on to receive a Master of Divinity from Union Theological Seminary in New York City, in 1993. He was married soon after. In 1994, Wyatt began his working career as the minister of two small United Methodist churches in southeastern Ohio.

While working as a minister Wyatt began writing in his spare time for Dragon magazine, starting with material for TSR's Masque of the Red Death setting. By 1996, Wyatt decided to change his career path: "While I was in the ministry, I started submitting adventures to Dungeon magazine... I found that my D&D work was a source of freedom and energy when ministry was more life-draining for me. When I started getting adventures and articles accepted, it was so exciting that it became clear that D&D would never again be just a hobby for me." The same year he moved to Wisconsin in hopes of getting a full-time job at TSR, which did not immediately work out, but he kept writing material as a freelance author. Wyatt produced work for roleplaying games such as West End's Hercules & Xena Roleplaying Game, although he felt that "D&D has always been my one true love in the gaming world... despite junior high flings with other game systems." He continued to have material published in Dragon and Dungeon.

In 1998 he moved to Berkeley, California, and in 2000 to the Seattle/Tacoma area of Washington state. Wizards of the Coast ultimately hired him in January 2000 to work on the D&D game full-time; his first assignment was Monstrous Compendium: Monsters of Faerûn, of which he wrote two-thirds. His other early works for Wizards of the Coast included The Speaker in Dreams (a core adventure on the original Adventure Path, following The Sunless Citadel and The Forge of Fury), Defenders of the Faith, the monsters chapter in the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, and numerous articles in Dragon and Dungeon. Wyatt wrote Oriental Adventures (2001), a setting book that had been in the works with Wizards for more than a year, and which presented new rules for Oriental lands, including specific rules for the Rokugan setting. He wrote City of the Spider Queen and co-authored numerous roleplaying game products, including Magic of Incarnum, Sharn: City of Towers, Draconomicon, The Book of Dragons, and Book of Exalted Deeds. Eberron was introduced with the Eberron Campaign Setting (2004), which was designed by Keith Baker with Wyatt and Bill Slavicsek. Early in 2005, Slavicsek put together a team to start some early designs for a fourth edition of D&D, which was headed by Rob Heinsoo with Collins and Wyatt as the core fourth-edition team. Wyatt was on the SCRAMJET team, led by Richard Baker, along with Matt Sernett, Ed Stark, Michele Carter, Stacy Longstreet, and Chris Perkins; this team updated the setting and cosmology of D&D as the fourth edition was being developed.

He wrote the D&D novels In the Claws of the Tiger (2006), Storm Dragon (2007), Dragon Forge (2008), Dragon War (2009), and Oath of Vigilance (2011).

In 2014, Wyatt left Dungeons & Dragons to work on the writing and creative aspects of Magic: The Gathering. Wyatt wrote the text for the series of Art of Magic: The Gathering coffee table books, which reprint illustrations from the cards with details for each plane's lore. He then wrote a series of free PDF releases called Plane Shift which adapts Magic: The Gathering for Dungeons & Dragons; the Plane Shift releases were created to allow players to use those coffee table books as campaign setting guides by providing the necessary rule adaptations. Between 2016 and 2018, six "Plane Shift" articles were released: Amonkhet, Dominaria, Innistrad, Ixalan, Kaladesh, and Zendikar, along with an Ixalan-set adventure. However, these articles are not considered official material for organized play. In 2017, Mike Mearls wrote: "It's basically a thing James does for fun, and we don't want to burden it with needing all the work required to make it official".

The positive response to the "Plane Shift" articles lead to the 2018 publication of Guildmasters' Guide to Ravnica, a full hardcover setting guide to the Magic setting of Ravnica for Dungeons & Dragons. Wyatt was the lead designer on Guildmasters’ Guide to Ravnica (2018) and he stated "this book is, essentially, Plane Shift: Ravnica". Wyatt and F. Wesley Schneider were then co-leads on the design on the next crossover book Mythic Odysseys of Theros (2020) which adapts the Magic setting of Theros. He is also one of the authors of the sourcebook Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft (2021).

Honors
Wyatt received Origins Awards in 2003 for City of the Spider Queen and in 2005 for the Eberron Campaign Setting, which he co-authored with Bill Slavicsek and Keith Baker. His other notable works include Oriental Adventures (for which he won an ENnie Award in 2002), Draconomicon, the Draconic Prophecies series, and Magic of Incarnum.

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 Walda. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Walda~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.

Forest elaenia

The forest elaenia (Myiopagis gaimardii) is a small passerine bird in the tyrant flycatcher family. It breeds from Panama through Colombia, Venezuela and the Guianas to Bolivia and Brazil. It also occurs on Trinidad.

This species is found in forests and the edges of mangrove swamps. The nest is a shallow cup of roots, bark and grass built in a tree. The typical clutch is two cream-coloured eggs marked with rufous and lavender.

The adult forest elaenia is 12.7 cm long and weighs 12.2g. The head has a blackish crown with a partly concealed white or pale yellow central stripe, a weak whitish supercilium and white eyering. The upperparts are olive-green, and the brown wings have yellow feather edging and two yellow wing bars. The throat is whitish and the breast is greenish-yellow shading to yellow on the belly. The long narrow bill is black above and pink-based below. Sexes are similar.

M. g. trinitatis, the subspecies endemic to Trinidad, is larger and has duller upper parts than mainland forms.

Forest elaenias are seen alone or in pairs, perched inconspicuously or catching insects and spiders in higher levels of the foliage. They also frequently eat berries. They have a sharp pitch-weep call.

Civil courage

Civil courage is a type of courage, related closely to heroism, with which a person acts bravely to intervene or take a stand in a social situation. It is courage shown by a person by representing human values (e.g., human dignity, justice, helping people in need) in public (e.g., towards authorities, superiors, strangers, or perpetrators, regardless of possible personal social and physical consequences).

Overview
Italian journalist and writer Franca Magnani (1925–1996) wrote, "Je mehr Bürger mit Zivilcourage ein Land hat, desto weniger Helden wird es einmal brauchen" ("The more citizens with civil courage a country has, the fewer heroes it needs").

Contemporary use
Civil courage was referred to by psychologist Tobias Greitemeyer as constituting acts of bravery, carried out with the objective of enforcing a societal or ethical standard, without concern for the effect these acts might have on one's own social position. Civil courage is often punished and the courageous person risks ostracism. In this way, it is distinguished from those altruistic behaviors and other forms of courage that meet with social approval.

In the case of altruistic, helping behavior, an individual might expect to be praised or receive positive social consequences from having helped, despite possible financial or material loss. In actions where civil courage is demonstrated, the person carrying out the action may experience negative social consequences such as alienation, verbal abuse, or violence. Civil courage is displayed when a person, in spite of the perceived threat of such negative consequences, acts to intervene in a social context. This is demonstrated in the case of whistleblowers, who do not necessarily risk their lives but whose action could lead to prison time.

There are those who associate civil courage with non-violence as developed by Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. and who cite such association as the cause why it faded as a model of conduct—due to the perception that it is uninteresting and boring when compared to violent revolution as a way of making social change.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn said of civil courage that “we have gotten used to regarding as valor only valor in war (or the kind that’s needed for flying in outer space), the kind which jingle-jangles with medals. We have forgotten another concept of valor—civil valor. And that’s all our society needs, just that, just that, just that!”

Learning civil courage
A study from 2021 showed that German citizens consider the following contexts relevant to learn civil courage: “at home and/or from family”, “through volunteering”, “in sports organizations”, “in extracurricular activities”, “in school”, “in professional organizations”, “from friends”, and “in youth movements”. The following contexts are not considered relevant: “from television”, “from social media”, and “from the internet”.

Estrogen patch

An estrogen patch, or oestrogen patch, is a transdermal delivery system for estrogens such as estradiol and ethinylestradiol which can be used in menopausal hormone therapy, feminizing hormone therapy for transgender women, hormonal birth control, and other uses. Transdermal preparations of estrogen are metabolized differently than oral preparations. Transdermal estrogens avoid the first pass through the liver and thus potentially reduce the risk of blood clotting and stroke.

An estrogen patch is applied directly to the skin, preferably near the lower abdomen, hips, or buttocks, and is usually changed once or twice per week. For women who have not undergone a hysterectomy, it is often suggested that they take progestogen in addition to an estrogen patch in order to protect the endometrium of the uterus. Transdermal estrogens are not recommended for all women; there are important precautions and side effects that should be considered before use.

Menopause
An estrogen patch may be recommended for women experiencing moderate to severe symptoms of menopause, such as vasomotor symptoms and vaginal atrophy. During menopause, the ovaries stop producing estrogen which causes estrogen levels to fall. The sudden change in estrogen levels may cause vasomotor symptoms, such as hot flashes. Research suggests that the estrogen patch can relieve both the frequency and severity of vasomotor symptoms by increasing estrogen levels. An estrogen patch may also be used to treat vulvar and vaginal atrophy, another symptom of menopause associated with the sudden change in estrogen levels.

Hypoestrogenism
Hypoestrogenism, or estrogen deficiency, may suggest menopause is approaching for middle aged women. Other causes of hypoestrogenism are excessive exercise, restrictive diet, underactive pituitary gland, ovarian failure, Turner Syndrome, and kidney disease. Symptoms of hypoestrogenism may include pain during sex, irregular periods, mood swings, hot flashes, breast tenderness, headache, depression, fatigue, weak bones, and an increase risk of urinary tract infections. Estrogen therapies, including the use of an estrogen patch, can be used to alleviate these symptoms by increasing estrogen levels to a normal state. Premenopausal women may be recommended to take progestin with estrogen therapy.

Prevention of osteoporosis
Estrogen patches may be effective in preventing osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Research suggests that estrogen patches can significantly increases bone mineral density and reduce risks of fractures in postmenopausal women by raising estrogen levels and avoiding first-pass metabolism.

There is evidence that the combination of an estrogen patch with a progestin pill can improve bone mineral density in young, premenopausal amenorrheic athletes, and may be more effective than an oral estrogen with progestin.

Hormonal birth control
Contraceptive patches such as norelgestromin/ethinylestradiol are a form of estrogen patch which are used for hormonal birth control.

Patches with progestogens

Taking a progestogen in addition to an estrogen patch should be considered for women who have not undergone a hysterectomy to regulate the thickness of the endometrial lining and reduce the risk of endometrial cancer. Hysterectomized women rarely need a progestogen, however it may be considered if a history of endometriosis exists. There are different types of delivery systems of progestogens that can be used in addition to an estrogen patch, including pills, injections, and patches, among others.

Research has suggested that estrogen plus progestogen therapy may increase the risk of heart attacks, stroke, breast cancer, blot clots, and dementia in postmenopausal women. Taking the lowest effective dose of both estrogen and a progestogen may reduce risks.

Administration
Depending on the brand, patches are applied to the skin once or twice weekly. Patches should be placed on clean skin where hair and moisture is not present. Preferred areas of application include lower abdomen, hip, and buttocks. Patches should never be applied to the breasts. To reduce the risk of the patch detaching from the skin and skin irritation, skin care products, sun exposure, damaged skin, and tight-fitting clothing should be avoided where the patch is placed.

Side effects
Headache, breast pain or tenderness, nausea, vomiting, hair loss, vaginal discharge or irritation, and mood changes are some of the common side effects that may occur while using an estrogen patch. More serious side effects may include fever, loss of appetite, joint pain, difficulty breathing or swallowing, and yellowing of the skin or eyes.

Seeing a health professional regularly, taking progestin, having pelvic and breast exams, lowering blood pressure, and lowering cholesterol may reduce the likelihood of developing severe side effects while using an estrogen patch.

Precautions
Women who have experienced vaginal bleeding post menopause, certain cancers, stroke, heart attack, blood clotting, or uncontrollable bleeding, and women who are pregnant or allergic to ingredients in estrogen patches should not use an estrogen patch as serious adverse effects may occur.

Brand names
Estrogen patches are available in multiple brand names in different countries. Some patches are available with a progestin such as levonorgestrel, norethisterone acetate, or norelgestromin.
