Talk:Occupational health and safety

Proposed Merge
This article seems to be rather small and since there is a larger article focusing on Occupational Health & Safety in general, it would be better if OSHA were simply mentioned in that article rather than having its own. Of course, if someone can expand this article that exclusively discusses the law and not the issue of Occupational Safety, that would be a good alternative to merging.
 * Solarusdude 01:36, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

I think the subject should be left as it is, with a link to OSHA. Occupational health and safety or safety and health are temrs that are used throughout the world to describe the work done to reduce illness and injury to workforces.

 * Strongly oppose. One is a law, another is a principle.  They're not the same thing. --Smack (talk) 03:08, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Oppose Dankru 06:33, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Oppose The topic area needs clarification but a simple merger is not sufficient. There is a simple definition and statement of principles relating to occupational safety and health (OSH), there is legislation relating to OSH, there are OSH institutions (OSHA in the US and EUR-OSHA in Europe, plus national bodies such as HSE in the UK), there are subtopics in OSH, such as risk assessment or safety culture. Also, in some countries such as UK (and I think Ireland), occupational safety and health can include protection of persons wider than "workers" (section 3, HSW Act 1974), i.e. protecting non-workers affected by a work situation (e.g. the public from construction activities) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Timtregenza (talk • contribs) 11:00, 5 January 2007 (UTC).

Talk:Vader (band)

founded
band was founded in 1983 not in 1986, in 2008 they had 25 anniversary, so think first, official site is wrong, talk to Peter than you know

Doc's Death
Reverted back to older version. I can't find anything regarding Doc's cause of death. The original statement that the metal press references says that there are no further details. There is speculation that it was drug or alcohol related as those were the reasons he was removed from Vader. The only reference to AIDs I could find was a comment to a post on this web site, it seemed like flame bait to me and offered no edidence. I say we list no reason for his death until an official statement is released by the band or his family. This metalunderground.com comment is the only reference to AIDs I've been able to find. Here is the news report regarding his death, no mention of causes. This is also listed at Digitalmetal.com and Bravewords.com. --Aboverepine 01:36, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

Reign Forever World
Is this a full CD or not? I put it in as one, but the official page lists it as a MCd, but it is quite long.HichamVanborm 02:23, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

 * It's not a full length. It's an EP. Most of the songs are reworkings of older songs and covers. Also, it has been issued with another EP (Blood) in the United States as one disc. If you have that version, it would seem pretty long. Aboverepine 16:13, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Vader means father?
"vader" means father? This is new for me. Wikitionary says vader is father in dutch. I really don't think this is right. From what I've read in some interview the name comes from Darth Vader. But I'm not 100% sure.

 * I don't speak dutch, but i speak german, of which dutch is a very VERY close relative... the german word for Fathr is Vater, so i would not be at all surprised if "Vader" is Nederlands for "father"... perhaps Darth is a dialectal form of "Dark." AeturnalNarcosis (talk) 21:34, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

On other note - "Reborn in Chaos" is a compilation of old demos not a full album.
 * Vader *does* mean "father" in Dutch. What the origian of the band name is I'm not entirely sure, IIRC I read some interview where Peter said it came indeed from Darth Vader Spearhead 22:15, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
 * It does mean father in dutch, and this is the reason Darth Vader was called Darth Vader, being Luke's father. --Janster 20:19, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * signed Sat621 22:15, 10 June 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.151.48.83 (talk)

 * Vader is dutch for father. Darth Vader must mean "Dark father"...Why are we talking about Darth Vader and Dutch on a talk page about Vader, a Polish death/thrash band?

Neutrality
the biography section seems a little biased to me...

 * "most successful demo of all time" ... and without a citation
 * "equipment available behind the iron curtain."

AeturnalNarcosis (talk) 21:34, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

 * I'm the one that removed a lot of the non-neutral pov from far back and I left it because it shows the notability of their demo/or didn't know what to do with it (#1 is from their bio) but #2 "equipment available behind the iron curtain." maybe pulling it a little. − ₪ÇɨгcaғucɨҲ₪  kaiden  05:32, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

 * no offence intended.... unfortunately, i am not clever enough to properly reword it... just seemed a little one sided in 2 ways (interestingly enough): A) there's almost no information available about death metal bands' sales, so we have no real (statistical) way of telling how successful their demo was, nor do we have any statistical data of other death metal demos to which we can compare it, and B) the eastern block may have had similar quality sound production equipment to the western block, if not the exact same (i believe economic ties between the east and west were beginning to open up around the time their demo was recorded). that's all i'm getting at. AeturnalNarcosis (talk) 21:53, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

edits, issues
I have edited out a bunch of the problems signaled on this talk page. Still, I think the article is, on the one hand, way too long (*listing* when all these albums were recorded and when they toured is little informative), and on the other, too short--there's hardly anything about personnel changes, or changes in style, or their record deals and popularity. Basically, the article originally was a long list of facts and some words of praise. Now it's mainly just a long list.

There's inconsistencies also, compared to the (separate) discography--for instance, how many demos before Morbid Reich? But that I will leave to those who know what they're talking about. Drmies (talk) 20:37, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

1983 or 1986?
When did Vader form? Before, the infobox and the line-up section said that they formed in 1983, but that has recently changed to 1986 by an anonymous user. Their official website says that they were initiated in 1986, but they're celebrating their 25th anniversary around this time as well, the release of their compilation album XXV signifying this. So, how should it be? 1983 or 1986? Backtable Speak to Me about what I have done  02:17, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

 * The official site might be incorrect and why would they release an album in 2008 celebrating their 25th anniversary? It looks as if 1983 is the correct year because of this. Though they never released a demo until 1986 and that might be the reason why 1986 is used. FireCrystal (talk) 03:00, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

 * I think that I would believe that they formed in 1983, because it is possible for bands to have their first recorded material released several years after they formed. Just look at the band Dreamscape. They formed in 1986 and didn't have anything released until a 1993 demo. They focues on their technicality at first; that's what I've heard. Backtable Speak to Me  about what I have done  04:08, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

 * And I've also heard that they started out as a thrash metal band. Ok, then that settles it, I'm inclined to change it to 1983 but before we do this, is there any source more reliable (not that it's even reliable but a respected metal site) than MA out there? Although it does make sense to use 1983 with a 25-year anniversary album. FireCrystal (talk) 04:33, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Their official website says 1986. Dang. I know that that isn't a reliable source, per se, but I thought it was notable to mention. But the tartareandesire.com page says that they formed in 1983. Does that count as one? Backtable Speak to Me  about what I have done  03:17, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Their official site may be wrong by chance. Most biographies are made by the press or some other source. If it were the band I think they would see it and have it changed but that's just what I think. Though if one of the band members (usually founder) manages their MySpace then we could ask them personally (but then again MySpace isn't reliable but it's most likely coming straight from a band member). Though this gets me thinking that they might have an interview somewhere that could end this. I'm thinking that tartareandesire.com counts as one but I could be wrong, though it was used as a reference in the folk metal article at the time it was being reviewed for GA and still is. The reviewer would of said something about it before he passed the article so I think it's ok. Even so, is this enough? Are there any more sources out there? Once we find a another source I think it's safe to change it to 1983. FireCrystal (talk) 04:20, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Just found a more credible source at heavymetalabout. I think this settles this once and for all! FireCrystal (talk) 05:15, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

 * 1983 it is! Thanks for finding that. Backtable Speak to Me  about what I have done  20:44, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Peter's role in the band
Peter played bass in 1983, then switched to guitars later the same year, and handled vocals in 1988. Here is a link of the band's official website stating these facts:. It should, therefore, say Piotr "Peter" Wiwczarek – guitar (1983–present), vocals (1988–present), bass guitar (1983) TheSickBehemoth (talk) 17:11, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

 * Thanks, Antandrus, I'm fine, and likewise to you.

 * Pages like Mozart and Beethoven are sort of frustrating, no? We get an awful lot of edits that aren't always that well-informed or well-integrated, so I was pleased to see you trying to keep Mozart in shape.

 * I bought Maynard Solomon's biography in hope of putting more solid facts into the Mozart article, but alas I don't find it very fun to read--all that morbid psychologizing and POV. Maybe you can suggest an alternative?  Best wishes, Opus33 15:49, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Thanks, Antandrus, I'll try that suggestion.

I'm sure I'll become a familiar face on places like the Administrator's Noticeboard and Requests for Adminship, as well as the murkier parts of my new job. "From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked." (Luke 12:48, NIV) Never was a truer word spoken.

I was just thinking of messaging you a plea for a little help with the actual music in that article-to-be. OK, so it might be a little strange for a tone-deaf person to be writing about opera to begin with, I know, but, well, if you take a look at the talk page, you'll see me explaining to Geogre about the fun stage directions I stumbled on, only I never seem to actually get to them... and then there's the problem of the music.

Why I have done both
Adam, do you understand why'' vandalism is not good for an encyclopedia? Really? When I read your user page, the e-mail you sent me in July, and go through your contributions--including all the anonymous ones--I'm honestly baffled. You seem to think that your vandalism is all in good fun, and you can just casually change from a vandal into a good editor and back again without consequence. Please stop, because you DO do good work on Star Wars stuff, and we don't want to have to block you. OK? Antandrus (talk) 03:51, 4 August 2005 (UTC)''

 * I understand the effect it has on the encyclopedia. One of the main motivations for me to start this wave of vandalism was my cousin, once again, who got me thinking about vandalism. I gues I just like the idea of maintaining a vigilante-type reputation, so to speak. I have found wikipedia to be an excellent place for all the "unknown" information on subjects such as the star wars pages, and one of the things I speciallize in on here is working on these details. There is a side to me similar to the ones who create viruses and worms and such. I do these things such as vandalism, simply to see what will happen. In the case of July, I was able to cause a discussion among top members and administrators towards changing some of the policies of wikipedia. To be honest, this was my goal. I think I've accomplished it. So I have a mindset of a serious wikipedian (or wikiphile), while at the same time I have a darker side. Ha! I hope this answers your question, and I understand your being baffled at my motives. That was sort of my goal from the beginning. Adamwankenobi 06:02, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

Weren't you looking for this before? (And is this indeed the one? I didn't want to leave a note for the anon without being able to check; I'd have to go over to the library to get my hands on the 1980. Oh, darn, I know, a trip to the library.)

How've you been? Have a concert tomorrow: a pops concert with seven harps. Let me just say now I'm extremely glad I'm not involved in any way with the tuning of the seven harps... Mindspillage (spill yours?) 14:59, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

Elgar sym 1
Thanks! I don't have the score. I went through the tune in my head, so I may have the wrong note-count. There's another anecdote I like: someone (my memory says Boult, but I realize he would only have been 18 at the time) made a bet with Elgar that he couldn't write an A-flat major symphony whose first subject begins in D minor. He did, of course, if you don't count the intro. History doesn't record whether Elgar collected. Now I'm going to de-stub Music Makers, although Apostles and Kingdom also call. First I have to finish listening to the Seattle Rheingold, which is on radio right now (I think that's the rainbow bridge). David Brooks 04:56, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Good work yourself. You know, I was just thinking, 'I wish we had one-button page-revert solutions' :). Great minds think alike ;) -- Longhair | Talk 23:21, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments. It seems you did the bulk of the cleanup, good work. We can only hope one-click pagemove reverting is implemented soon. -- Curps 20:25, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks bud
My protect of Attack of the Show because of the waves of vandalism has caused anons to say 'Redwolf24 has no balls'. when I saw that I knew I'd have some vandalism at my user page. I AM BLACK isnt really that clever or mean of a vandalism but thanks for reverting it ant. :D Redwolf24 00:38, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Thank you!
Thank you for fixing up my user page from that vandal! How do you guys detect this kind of thing? --Pravit 01:46, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Witold Lutosławski: advice please
Hello, Antandrus. I value your judgement more than somewhat: could you please take a look at this? I need some advice (and consolation if you feel it's appropriate). I'm pretty despondent with the response to the FAC so far: it feels like two slaps in the face. Is the article way below FAC status in your view? With the uploader unavailable, should I remove the images until their copyright status can be demonstrated to Carnildo's satisfaction? Should I remove the article from FAC (something I think I may do anyway given the first responses)? Kind regards. --RobertG ♬ talk 20:30, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Many thanks. I'm signing off for now - look forward to your comments in due course.  --RobertG ♬ talk 20:51, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Thank you, Antandrus, I appreciate it. After sleeping on it I see now that I responded as much to Everyking's manner as his point. I shall rewrite the offending sentence to make it clearer, incorporating your sensible take on it. I will get to Grove later and mention Derwid as you suggest. And your prescience about requests for music samples was uncanny :-) I still don't quite understand the objection about the images (Karol Langner has already verified the copyright status), but it'll pan out no doubt.  --RobertG ♬ talk 10:07, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the save
Thank you for reverting User:151.197.34.175's attack on my personal page. I'm not sure how you do it but thank you. Also you might want to investigate if User:151.197.34.175 and User:Sgt pepper 990 are infact the same person if you can. They've both voted on a VFD and have a very similar MO. If we could get rid of this vandal for good it'd be swell. Gateman1997 22:45, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

AOL related blocking problems
When you block individuals using the Autoblock software (see below), you also block innocent individuals who are randomly assigned the same IP number. This happens to me frequently. Please see my user page -- User:WBardwin/AOL Block Collection -- for a history of these events. I would appreciate a prompt release of this block so I can get back to work. Thank you. WBardwin 08:20, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

Your user name or IP address has been blocked by Antandrus. The reason given is this: Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "Mickey656". The reason given for Mickey656's block is: "vandal account". Your IP address is 207.200.116.199.

 * I've unblocked, and I'll remind WBardwin again that just because the admin's name is in the block, doesn't mean that admin was in any way involved in placing the autoblock. -- Essjay ·  Talk 08:38, August 17, 2005 (UTC)

 * Thank you for your response. I appreciate the interest in this ongoing software problem.  Peace.  WBardwin 15:54, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

Here we go again. Here is today's block history. If you are hanging around, please release this block. Thanks. WBardwin 17:02, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Your user name or IP address has been blocked by Golbez. The reason given is this: Autoblocked because your IP address has been recently used by "Mickey658". The reason given for Mickey658's block is: "someone obviously with a vendetta; all edits have been vandalism". Your IP address is 207.200.116.6.

Thanks -- appreciate your attention. Oddly enough, when I get hit by a block, I can usually edit talk pages, even those on articles, but I can never edit articles. But, sometimes, I can't even edit my own talk page. User:JRM seems to think that AOL's pattern of constantly shifting IP numbers allows some fluidity. Being able to write on talk pages does allow me to find helpful admins like you.

Sorry about the repetitive entries on your page history. Wiki has been doing that quite often, lately. I promise I'm not trying to rack up my edit count. Peace. WBardwin 17:29, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

Hi -- if you're on, I would appreciate you releasing the block of the day. Best wishes. WBardwin 06:09, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Your user name or IP address has been blocked by FreplySpang.

Horowitz's birthplace
Thanks for adding the very convincing information on Vladimir Horowitz's birthplace. I'm a little ashamed that I've never read a real biography on Horowitz. Do you know one to recommend? – Pladask 16:47, August 17, 2005 (UTC)

Schmidt and Hackett
You worked on articles on the special election in Ohio on August 2. I have posted my articles on the nominees in that race, Jean Schmidt and Paul Hackett, at Peer review and would appreciate your comments. The individual pages are at Peer review/Jean Schmidt/archive1 and Peer review/Paul Hackett/archive1. PedanticallySpeaking 19:27, August 17, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your support
Thanks for supporting me in the recent RfA, I am deeply humbled and will do my very best to help keep Wikipedia running smoothly. -Loren 00:48, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

What a nice thing to say!
I'm flattered to hear you say that! I saw WBardwin's post go across my watchlist, and since he's forever being autoblocked because of the GrandCru/Mickey vandal, I went and unblocked him. As for maestro di cappella, consider yourself Archbishop Antandrus, Maestro di Cappella to His Wikiness. ; - ) -- Essjay ·  Talk 02:56, August 18, 2005 (UTC)

Ole Lukøje

"Ole Lukøje" (Ole Lukøje) is a literary fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen based upon a folk tale telling of a mysterious mythic creature of the Sandman who gently takes children to sleep and, depending on how good or bad they were, shows them various dreams.

Ole Lukøje's name is actually composed of two parts: Ole  is a common Danish masculine name, and Lukøje a compound of the Danish words for 'close' and 'eye'. In the tale, he visits a boy called Hjalmar every night for a whole week and tells him stories. Ole Lukøje is later revealed to be a dream god, and in his final tale on Sunday he tells of his brother, likewise called Ole Lukøje but also Death, who closes the eyes of those he visits and takes them away with him.
