Belgian literature

Because modern Belgium is a multilingual country, Belgian literature is often treated as a branch of French literature or Dutch literature. Some writing also exists in the regional languages of Belgium, with published works in both the Walloon language, closely related to French, and also in various regional Flemish or Dutch-related dialects.

German is the third official language in Belgium and is spoken by a small community of about 70,000 German-speakers of the German-speaking Community of Belgium in the border region Eupen-Malmedy. ''See de:Belgische_Literatur.

Belgian literature in Walloon
Literature in Walloon has been printed since the 16th century or at least since the beginning of the 17th century. Its golden age was in the 19th century: 'That period saw an efflorescence of Walloon literature, plays and poems primarily, and the founding of many theaters and periodicals.' Yves Quairiaux counted 4800 plays for 1860–1914, published or not. In this period plays were almost the only popular show in Wallonia. But this theater remains popular in present-day Wallonia: Theatre is still flourishing with over 200 non-professional companies playing in the cities and villages of Wallonia for an audience of over 200,000 each year. Jacques Ancion wanted to develop a regular adult audience. This regional literature most commonly deals with local folklore and ancient traditions, the most prominent Walloon author being Arthur Masson.
 * Charles-Nicolas Simonon (1774-1847): "Li Côparèye" (1822)
 * Nicolas Defrecheux (1825-1874): "Lèyîs-m'plorer" (Let me weep, 1854)
 * Edward Remouchamps (1836-1900) wrote the vaudeville theater piece "Tatî l'pèriquî" (Gautier, the barber, 1885)
 * Salme Dieudonné: the novel "Li Houlot" (The cadet, 1888)
 * Willame Georges (1863-1917), sonnets
 * François Renkin (1872-1906), stylized prose
 * Henri Simon (1856-1939): "Li Mwert di l'abe" (The death of the tree, 1909) and "Li pan dè bon Dieu" (The Bread of the Good Lord, 1914)
 * Jules Claskin (1884-1926), poetry
 * Laloux Auguste (1908-1976): "Li p'tit Bêrt", written before 1940, published in 1963
 * Geo Libbrecht (1891-1976): poetry, "Les cloques / Les cleokes (1964)."

Walt Kiesling

Walter Andrew Kiesling (May 27, 1903 – March 2, 1962) was an American football guard who spent 36 years as a player, coach, and aide with National Football League (NFL) teams. He was posthumously inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1966 and was named to the NFL 1920s All-Decade Team in 1969.

A native of Saint Paul, Minnesota, Kiesling played college football at the University of St. Thomas where he was selected as an all-state player from 1923 to 1925. He then played 13 years as a guard (and his first season as a tackle) in the NFL with the Duluth Eskimos (1926–1927), Pottsville Maroons (1928), Chicago Cardinals (1929–1933), Chicago Bears (1934), Green Bay Packers (1935–1936), and Pittsburgh Pirates (1937–1938). He was a first-team All-Pro in 1929, 1930, and 1932, a second-team All-Pro in 1931, and played for the Packers 1936 NFL championship team.

Kiesling also spent 25 years as a coach or aide for NFL teams, including seven years as head coach of the Pittsburgh Pirates / Steelers from 1939 to 1942 and 1954 to 1956. He led the Steelers to their first winning season in 1942. He also served as co-head coach of the wartime merger teams known as the Steagles in 1943 and Card-Pitt in 1944 and as line coach for the Pirates (1937–1938), Green Bay Packers (1945–1948), and Steelers (1949–1953). He retired from active coaching for health reasons in 1957 but remained an aide to the Steelers coaching staff from 1957 to 1961.

Early life
Kiesling was born in 1903 in Saint Paul, Minnesota. His parents, Wenzel and Barbara Kiesling, were natives of Bohemia who immigrated to the United States in 1890 and 1888, respectively. Kiesling had a younger brother, Edward. His father worked as a cutter in a leather works and later in a garment factory.

Kiesling attended Cretin High School, a Catholic high school in Saint Paul where he played football as a tackle. He remained in Saint Paul for college, attending the University of St. Thomas. He played football at St. Thomas and was selected as an all-state player for three straight years in 1923, 1924, and 1925. He graduated in 1926 with a bachelor of science degree in mathematics.

Duluth and Pottsville
In the fall of 1926, Kiesling joined the Duluth Eskimos of the National Football League (NFL), appearing in 11 games as a tackle for a team that featured star backs Ernie Nevers and Johnny Blood. He remained in Duluth for the 1927 season, moving to the guard position and appearing in six games.

Kiesling joined the Pottsville Maroons for the 1927 season, starting 10 games at right guard.

Chicago Cardinals
Kiesling next joined the Chicago Cardinals where he played at the left guard position from 1929 to 1933. During his prime years with the Cardinals, he was recognized as one of the leading linemen in the NFL.
 * In 1929, he started 12 games at left guard and was selected as a first-team All-Pro by Collyer's Eye magazine.
 * In 1930, he appeared in 11 games, nine as a starter, and was selected as a first-team All-Pro in 1930 by both Collyer's Eye and the Green Bay Press-Gazette, based on the returns of ballots sent to the league's coaches, club officials, sports writers and officials,
 * In 1931, he started nine games at left guards and was selected as a second-team All-Pro by the United Press, the Green Bay Press-Gazette, and Collyer's Eye.
 * In 1932, he started 10 games at left guard and was selected as a first-team All-Pro by the Associated Press.

Kiesling was the Cardinals' heaviest player, ranging from 235 to 260 pounds at six feet, three inches. He was reputed to be "excellent on defense and unusually shifty on offense." He was also known as "a smart guard, a sure tackler despite his bulk and adept at rushing a passer."

During his NFL career, Kiesling lived in Saint Paul in the off-season, operating a cafe and playing as a pitcher and outfielder for a semi-pro baseball team. He also played league baseball in Montana and Canada.

Bears and Packers
In August 1934, George Halas signed Kiesling to a one-year contract with the Chicago Bears. Kiesling appeared in 13 games for the Bears, only five as a starter.

In August 1935, Kiesling signed with the Green Bay Packers. At the time of his signing, the Green Bay Press-Gazette wrote:

"Kiesling is one of the most experienced players in the pro grid game. Practically no one gains through his side of the line consistently ... Kiesling never dissipates, and trains in the year around, remaining always in top condition."

Kiesling appeared in 10 games for the Packers in 1935. He also appeared in eight games for the 1936 Green Bay Packers team that won the NFL championship.

Pittsburgh Pirates/Steelers
Kiesling began his coaching career at age 34 during the 1937 season as an assistant coach under Johnny Blood for the Pittsburgh Pirates (renamed the Steelers in 1940). He was also a player for the Pirates during the 1937 and 1938 seasons, appearing in a total of 12 games. When Blood resigned as head coach after the team lost the first three games of the 1939 season, team owner Art Rooney hired Kiesling as the team's new head coach. Kiesling led the Pirates to a 1–6–1 record in the final eight games of the 1939 season.

Kiesling led the Steelers to a 2–7–2 record during the 1940 season and was replaced by Bert Bell and Aldo Donelli in 1941. Kiesling resumed his role as head coach near the end of the 1941 season, leading the team to a 1–2–1 in the final four games.

Kiesling led the 1942 Steelers to a 7–4 record, the first winning season in club history since the team was formed in 1933. Kiesling's 1942 team was led on the field by rookie halfback Bill Dudley who totaled 1,138 yards of total offense (696 rushing and 438 passing) and also had 576 yards on punt and kickoff returns. Dudley was drafted into Army after the 1942 season.

In 1943, with so many players lost to military service, the Steelers were temporarily merged with the Philadelphia Eagles to form the Steagles. Kiesling and the Eagles' coach Greasy Neale served as co-coaches of the Steagles. The Steagles compiled a 5–4–1 record.

In 1944, the Steelers were still lacking players due to the war and formed a one-year merger with the Chicago Cardinals, operating under the name Card-Pitt. Kiesling and the Cardinals' coach Phil Handler served as co-coaches. Despite the play of John Grigas, a Cardinals back who led the NFL in 1944 with 1,154 all-purpose yards and 471 kickoff return yards, the Card-Pitt team gave up 32.8 points per game, compiled a 0–10 record, and was outscored by a combined total of 328–108.

Green Bay Packers
In January 1945, Kiesling resigned as the Steelers' coach. Hours after resigning his position with the Steelers, Kiesling was hired as assistant coach for the Green Bay Packers. He coached the Packers' linemen, and in December 1945, he signed a contract extending his service through the 1947 season. In January 1948, his contract was renewed again through the 1948 season. At the time, Curly Lambeau called Kiesling the top line coach in college or professional football.

Kiesling contracted pneumonia in the winter of 1947 and lost 51 pounds while battling the illness. In February 1949, Kiesling was released by the Packers, with Lambeau advising Kiesling "in the interests of his health to take a year's vacation from football."

Return to the Steelers
Ignoring Lambeau's advice, Kiesling returned to the Steelers in March 1949 as the line coach. He signed a contract extension with the Steelers in March 1950, and remained as line coach through the 1953 season.

In March 1952, Kiesling was hospitalized with what was described as a "heavy cold". In November 1953 he was hospitalized again with pneumonia. Starting with his 1947 bout with pneumonia, Kiesling was plagued with respiratory ailments for the rest of his life.

In late August 1954, Joe Bach resigned as the Steelers' head coach after a poor showing by the team in exhibition games, and Kiesling was promoted to head coach. In his third stint as head coach, Kiesling led the Steelers to records of 5–7 in 1954, 4–8 in 1955, and 5–7 in 1956.

Kiesling is often remembered as the coach who released Johnny Unitas, a player widely acclaimed as one of the greatest in NFL history. The Steelers had selected Unitas, a Pittsburgh native, in the ninth round of the 1955 NFL draft. Kiesling was satisfied with Jim Finks and Ted Marchibroda as his quarterbacks and was unimpressed by the gangly Unitas. He did not allow Unitas to even play in any exhibition games, and after pre-season camp, Kiesling told Rooney: "Unitas is too dumb. He can't remember plays."

Kiesling's health was declining by the mid-1950s. Steelers' owner Art Rooney considered firing him, but concluded that loyalty outweighed winning. Rooney reportedly said, "Walt will be my head coach as long as he wants to be, and even if he doesn't want to be." Kiesling's health was poor during the 1956 season, yet he returned for the pre-season in 1957, finally retiring in late August 1957. He remained an aide to the Steelers' coaching staff until his death.

Kiesling's overall record as an NFL head coach was 30–55–5.

Family, later years, and honors
Kiesling was married in approximately 1932. At the time of his death, he was married to Irene Andreen Kiesling. No record has been found of Kiesling having any children.

Kiesling suffered from a respiratory ailment that resulted in multiple hospitalizations in his later years. He died in March 1962 at age 58 at Divine Providence Hospital in Pittsburgh. The cause of death was acute bacteremia due to pyelonephritis. He was buried at Christ Our Redeemer Catholic Cemetery in Pittsburgh.

Kiesling was posthumously inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1966. In 1969, he was also selected by the Pro Football Hall of Fame as a guard on the NFL 1920s All-Decade Team.

Claw beaker

A claw beaker is a name given by archaeologists to a type of drinking vessel often found as a grave good in 6th and 7th century AD Frankish and Anglo-Saxon burials.

Found in northern France, eastern England, Germany and the Low Countries, it is a plain conical beaker with small, claw-like handles or lugs protruding from the sides made from gobs of molten glass applied to the beaker's walls. The main centre of manufacturing was probably in modern-day Germany and the glass was sometimes tinted brown, blue or yellow. However, many examples in Anglo-Saxon glass seem to have been made in Britain.

Andrew Preston Peabody

Andrew Preston Peabody (March 19, 1811 – March 10, 1893) was an American clergyman and author.

Born in Beverly, Massachusetts, Peabody was descended from Lieut. Francis Peabody of St. Albans, who emigrated to Massachusetts in 1635. He learned to read before he was three years old, entered Harvard College at the age of twelve, and graduated in 1826, the youngest graduate of Harvard with the single exception of Paul Dudley (class of 1690).

In 1833 Peabody became assistant pastor of the South Parish (Unitarian) of Portsmouth, New Hampshire; the senior pastor died before Peabody had been preaching a month, and he succeeded to the charge of the church, which he held until 1860. In 1853 to 1863 he was proprietor and editor of the North American Review. He was elected a member of the American Antiquarian Society in 1856. From 1843 to 1885 he served as a trustee of Phillips Exeter Academy.

Peabody was preacher to Harvard University and the Plummer professor of Christian morals from 1860 to 1881, and was professor emeritus from 1881 until his death in Boston, Massachusetts, shortly before his 82nd birthday.

A bronze tablet dedicated to his memory is found in Appleton Chapel, Cambridge, Massachusetts (see the Memoir by Edward J. Young, Cambridge, 1896). The inscription on the tablet concludes with: "He moved among the teachers and students of Harvard College, and wist not that his face shone."

Andrew Peabody was an accomplished scholar, and also a firm believer in ethical behavior. He championed many causes during his life, including peace, the end of slavery, the education of women, and better treatment for the mentally ill. The Peabody School in Cambridge, Massachusetts was founded in 1889. The original building was three stories high and cost $25,000. That building was razed and a new one built in 1962 at a cost of $1,420,000. In 2003, the Peabody School was relocated to its current facility, which received extensive renovations and additions in 2001. The Peabody School today continues to represent the two things for which Andrew Peabody is remembered: the pursuit of academic excellence, coupled with a caring and respect for others.

Published works
In addition to brief memoirs and articles, Peabody wrote:
 * Christianity the Religion of Nature (2 vol. ed., 1864)
 * Lowell Institute Lectures; Reminiscences of European Travel (1868)
 * A Manual of Moral Philosophy (1873)
 * Christian Belief and Life (1875)
 * Harvard Reminiscences (1888).

User:Vino~enwiki

I used to think Wikipedia was a silly idea, until every Google search came back with a Wikipedia entry. It was so useful, that I would occasionally skip Google and manually type a Wikipedia URL. For example, once I wanted to know about the legendary taoist Lao Tzu, so I typed in http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/Lao_Tzu and arrived at the Lao Tzu page. Then came one fateful day where I googled for a subject (dBZ_(meteorology)) and I couldn't find a Wikipedia entry on it! So I became a Wikipedian and assembled an article. I'm not even a meteorologist!

Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/How-to

Twinkle
You may use Twinkle to facilitate CfD nominations. To install Twinkle, go to Special:Preferences and check "Twinkle" in the "Browsing" section. Use the now-installed "XfD" (Start a deletion discussion) tab while viewing the page you want to nominate.

Twinkle only allows you to nominate a single category or stub template. For bundled nominations including multiple categories, see.

MassCFD
You can use the script User:Qwerfjkl/scripts/massCFD to automatically make mass nominations.

Notifying interested projects and editors
In addition to the steps listed above, you may choose to invite participation by editors who are likely to be informed about a nominated category. All such efforts must comply with Wikipedia's guideline against biased canvassing. In addition, to help make your messages about the CfD discussion clear, avoid Wikipedia-specific abbreviations, link to relevant policies or guidelines, and link to the discussion itself.

WikiProjects consist of groups of editors who are interested in a particular subject. If a nominated category is within the scope of one or more WikiProjects, consider adding a brief, neutral note on their talk page(s) about the nomination. You may use  or write a personalized message.
 * Notifying related WikiProjects

Tagging the nominated category's talk page with a relevant WikiProject's banner will include the category in that WikiProject's Article Alerts if they subscribe to the system. For instance, tagging a nominated category with WikiProject Physics will add the discussion to WikiProject Physics/Article alerts.

While not required, it is generally considered courteous to notify the good-faith creator and main contributors of the category that you are nominating for discussion. To find the creator and main contributors, check the category's page history or talk page. You may use to inform the category's creator and all other editors.
 * Notifying substantial contributors to the category

It may be helpful to invite other subject-matter experts by posting a message on the talk page of the most closely related article, such as Protein family for Category:Protein families. You may use for this.
 * Notifying other interested editors

Closing procedure
After seven days, someone will close the discussion according to the consensus that formed or, if needed, relist it to allow more discussion. Editors closing discussions must follow the administrator instructions and, except in the case of a "keep" or "no consensus" outcome, implement the result or log it at the Working page to ensure it is implemented.

Redirecting categories
In general, an unpopulated category should be deleted (see speedy deletion criterion C1) because it is not useful for navigation and sorting. In limited circumstances, and because categories cannot be redirected using "hard" redirects (i.e. ), we use a form of "soft redirect" to solve the issue. You can create a category redirect by adding to the category page. Bots patrol these categories and move articles into the "redirect" targets.

In particular, category redirects are used at the former category name when we convert hyphens into en dashes (e.g. Category:Canada-Russia relations → Category:Canada–Russia relations). It is also helpful to set up category redirects from titles with plain letters (i.e. characters on a standard keyboard) where the category names include diacritics.

A list of redirected categories is available at Category:Wikipedia soft redirected categories.

Talk:Saint Telemachus

Untitled
I understand Gibbons referred to Telemachus in his treatise The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.

Folk tales as facts?
There is but one source to the tale about Telemachus -- Theodoret -- so there is no founding or base to the tale in this article, which is a false embroidery of the facts Theodoret reports. In fact, the story told here is contradicted by Theodoret all along the way.

Theodoret do not say it happened in the colosseum, do not give a date and says that Telemachus was killed by the spactators, not the gladiators, there is no mention of three days for the decree, etc.

In short, this one either should be corrected, or reassigned to the folk tales or myth section.

 * Done. --82.47.248.116 17:44, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

The false statement of facts was reinserted in the revision of 22:09, 28 August 2008. This article needs the attention of a more experienced editor. For now I am simply removing the flagrant misrepresentation of the cited source. The source cited is now online via Google Books, so I have added a link. The curious can find an alternate translation of Theodoret's history at http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/npnf203.iv.viii.v.xxvi.html - Timothy Gaskell 70.249.35.108 (talk) 04:30, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Material for merging
The following material is from Telemicus and looks like it should sit in this article. I don't know the subject well enough to do so, so copy it here for someone to pick up at some point.

Kcordina Talk 10:41, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Telemicus by William Barclay tells the story of Telemicus, a monk who lived outside the city of Rome. He was a man of the country and lived a quiet life but something, maybe the call of God, brought him to Rome, which was for the most part considered a Christian city. Yet thousands of people still attended the games in the Colosseum watching the fights of the gladiators. Telemicus was carried along by the crowd to the Colosseum, where perhaps 80,000 people gathered, looking for the weekly bloodletting. Telemicus was horrified. "Are we not all men created in God's image? These who were fighting must stop." Telemicus left the stands, leaped from his seat, sprung to the arena, and thrust himself between the two gladiators. His word cried out "in the name of Christ stop this thing"! They cast him aside. He came back; he cried out again and again "in the name of Christ stop this thing" they cast him aside. He came back; they cast him aside "in the name of Christ stop this thing". Finally, the commander's order rang out. A sword flashed and Telemicus was dead. A hush fell upon the people in the arena. Gradually, the people began to realize what had happened and slowly, one by one, they began to leave. A holy man had given his life to affirm the worth of every human being. The usual blood was not seen that day for something truly ramarkable had happened that day to the city of Rome, for there was never another gladiatorial contest held in Rome because one man, Telemicus.

Address incorrect versions of story?
A widely circulated version of this story is that Telemachus was killed by one of the gladiators and the crowd left in horror. (See the Telemicus story above) I think it might be a good idea to include this in the article and explain that it is inconsistent with Theodoret's account. Other thoughts? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.52.48.229 (talk • contribs) 10:59, 9 May 2007
 * I agree, as long you (or whoever) can find proper citation for that alternative story, it would be worthwhile to note the different interpretations. Alekjds talk 02:49, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I am adding some facts along this vein to the end of the article. This may not fit perfectly smoothly with the structure of the article, but it will give readers information - Timothy Gaskell 70.246.94.205 (talk) 17:58, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Does the citation of Butler's Lives of the Saints:New Full Edition apply to paragraphs 2-3? If so I have obscured this fact by inserting more information of variants of the story. If not a citation is needed. - Timothy Gaskell 70.244.206.89 (talk) 02:19, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I have not succeeded in finding the cited edition of Butler's Lives of the Saints, so I have added Citation Needed tags to the material that may or may not be from it. - Timothy Gaskell 70.244.200.183 (talk) 16:28, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Another source
Probably not the most reliable of sources, but I have a guide book from Rome, and it says that Telemachus was a monk who put himself between the gladiators at a match at the Colosseum and that "the spectators hurled insults and ultimately stones". Yet another obscure source to muddy the waters with the idea that he was killed by stoning. (it does also state that this was the end of the gladiator fights, so a confirmation of a sort) HiFlyChick (talk) 12:41, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Merger proposal
It seems that the article Almachius can be merged into this article (already suggested on the talk page there). This webpage states 4 names for the same saint: Saint Telemachus, Almachio, Almachius, and Almachus. I suggest redirects from the latter three names to Saint Telemachus. --ChoG (talk) 15:18, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Wrong emperor
There is, as mentioned by other commenters on this page, only one source for the story, Theodoret V.26; and as Hodgkin points out (Italy and Her Invaders, 2d (rev.) ed., I.728 f.), the presence of Honorius fixes the date to 404.

Rifled or smoothbore?
This article claims (unsourced) that the DEFA D921 gun is rifled. All other sources claim it to be a smoothbore. This misnomer has now spread (repeatedly) to tank gun. Despite this, this article describes it as firing fin-stabilised rounds. Can anyone explain how a rifled tank gun is firing fin stabilised rounds? A really slippy slipping ring, like HEAT rounds? Andy Dingley (talk) 19:48, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Howzit ,

 * As far as I can tell, the gun barrels of the DEFA D921/GIAT CN-90F1 used on the Panhard AML-90 (as well as on the EBR and EE-9 Cascavel Mk II) have rifling, it's just extremely shallow. In this respect the D921 resembles the 105 mm Modèle F1 used on the AMX-30, which was designed around roughly the same time period.

 * Nearly smoothbore guns with shallow rifling - and a comparatively small number of grooves - firing spin-stabilised projectiles were an unusual postwar French phenomenon. The system is explained well by Richard Ogorkiewicz in his pamphlet entitled AMX-30 Battle Tank like so:

 * "The shaped charge is mounted in ball bearings. In this way the outer body of the projectile can be allowed to spin without causing the shaped charge to rotate at more than 20 to 30 revolutions per minute. At this rotational speed the shaped charge does not lose any of its armour-piercing performance, which is the drawback of spin-stabilized projectiles - their spin being imparted by the rifling of the guns from which they are fired. On the other hand the fact that the outer body is spinning means that the projectile retains a high degree  of  accuracy. It is the lack of spin in the alternative, fin-stabilized  projectiles fired from  smooth bores that reduces their accuracy, particularly at long range. Thus the Obus G has the best of both  worlds: accuracy because  the  outer  projectile spins;  high  armour-piercing  performance  because the shaped charge doesn't spin to any significant extent."

 * Another Ogorkiewicz book, the tome entitled Technology of Tanks Volume One by Jane's, states:

 * "The guns produced in France by EFAB have also had a calibre of 90mm, like their Mecar forerunner, and shallow splines with a very slow twist to impart a low rate of spin to the projectiles, sufficient only to reduce the effect of any minor asymmetries. However, the fin-stabilised projectiles of the EFAB guns differ from the mortar bomb shape of the Mecar projectiles in being shorter by virtue of having fins as a direct extension of the projectile instead of on a tail boom."

 * On another note a few years ago I was given an operating manual for the AML-90 which includes diagrams of the gun assembly and maintenance procedures. I'll have to see if I can dig it up and look for that information being reiterated there. If so, I'll be sure to post an image here and cite it in the text, too.

Ben Is Dead
Non-notability. Don't want to bite newcomer--perhaps notability can be proven. Marskell 18:08, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

Hello. I wrote the article. If by non-notability you mean that not enough people have heard of this zine, I'd point out that it was easily one of the most well-known zines of the 90s and was featured in Time Magazine, CNN, etc. If a smaller zine like Cometbus rates an entry, I'd say BID definitely does. I was an occasional contributor so I'm not unbiased, but I'm approaching this more from a fan perspective.

 * My bad. I should've looked more closely, particularly at interviewees. Keep. I have changed some of the formatting myself. Anon writer, can you provide links proving mainstream coverage and maybe try and tone the Tattler-esque feel, especially in the last line? Marskell 09:00, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep. Seems to be a verifiable zine of some (if minor) notability. Article author should put more (independent) sources in. Sdedeo 02:26, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

Sol-Iletsk

Sol-Iletsk (Соль-Иле́цк) is a town in Orenburg Oblast, Russia, located on the right bank of the Ilek River (Ural's tributary), 77 km south of Orenburg, the administrative center of the oblast. Population:   22,000 (1975); 11,802 (1897).

The climate is arid, sharply continental.

History
It was founded in the 17th century as a Cossack settlement. In the mid-18th century, it was renamed Iletskaya Zashchita (Илецкая защита) due to the construction of fortifications. The name was then changed to Iletsk (Илецк) in the 19th century. In 1945, the town was given its present name. A thick bed of rocksalt is worked near this town (hence, the word "соль" (sol) in the town's name, which means "salt" in Russian). The place has also been known as a balneological resort for its mineral waters, salt, mud, and brine baths, and its kumis cures.

Administrative and municipal status
Within the framework of administrative divisions, Sol-Iletsk serves as the administrative center of Sol-Iletsky District, even though it is not a part of it. As an administrative division, it is incorporated separately as the Town of Sol-Iletsk —an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts. As a municipal division, the territories of the Town of Sol-Iletsk and of Sol-Iletsky District are incorporated as Sol-Iletsky Urban Okrug.

Penitentiary facilities
Sol-Iletsk houses what is commonly called the Black Dolphin Prison.

Talk:Quilava

Untitled
"By the time you have a Quilava in G/S/C, your rival will probably have a strong Croconaw. Since you will probably be in Azalea town, you will have access to a Bellsprout (Below Violet city) and/or a Mareep (Below Violet city. G/S only). Both these Pokemon are of advantage to Croconaw." -- Isn't that extremely POV? -- Deskana 18:10, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Not really. Thery do have a type advantage.  The issue I would have with that is that Wikipedia is not GameFAQs Sonic Mew | talk to me 14:42, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

major rewrites performed and still needed
removed some in-universe perspective from sections, the orignal author can put it back in provided they can reference particular anime episodes (or it was a generally known aspect that persisted throughout the series) or manga issues that specifically state these things. Only Pokedex and general anime references remain. I cleaned up the video game section and added a paragraph detailing its moves. If you feel that this sort of paragraph is cruft please let me know if there's a consensus we could reach by simple rewriting either here or through my talk page.

I'd also like to know if anyone else thinks that the anime section should be skimmed down, considering it sounds more like an episode synopsis, mentioning things not really relevant to Quilava. "Macey first uses her Slugma against Ash's Totodile, being badly damaged due to the type disadvantage. Macey then withdrew Slugma, and released her Electabuzz. Knowing that he was now at a disadvantage, withdrew Totodile and released his Phanphy. Macey then changed her Electabuzz for her Slugma, which was knocked out by Phanphy's Earthquake attack." Is this neccessary? i think it should focus only on Quilava and it relation with the trainer, success in the battle, moves employed and etc. likewise with the other reference in the "conductor" episode. It's an article about Quilava, not glalie and charizard.

Zappernapper 21:06, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

 * We're discussing the episode, not just the character within. GA reviewers prefer this system. H ig hway Return to Oz...  21:22, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I would rather you further explained why my rewrites were nonsensical instead of merely reversing them... But i shall go over piece by piece why i made the changes i did and you can explain each point -
 * "Quilava is the Stage-1 evolution of Cyndaquil, the Fire-type choice in Pokémon Gold, Silver and Pokémon Crystal for the Nintendo Game Colour. Quilava undergo evolution, a metamorphic change within a Pokémon caused by gaining experience in battle, twice. They can evolve as a Cyndaquil into Quilava, their Stage 1 (middle) forms at level 14, and again into their Stage 2 (final) forms, Typhlosion, at Level 36."
 * "(My version)Quilava is the Stage-1 evolution of Cyndaquil, the starting Fire-type choice in Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal for the Nintendo Game Colour. At level 36 Quilava 'evolve,' a metamorphic change within a Pokémon caused by gaining experience in battle,[7] into their final stage (Stage 3), Typhlosion."
 * In this paragraph I merely added the word starter (for better continuity); removed Pokemon from in front of Crystal (it's obviously brought over from earlier in the sentence); Quilava do NOT evolve twice, Cyndaquil does; the sentence, "they [Quilava] can evolve as Cyndaquil into Quilava..." is nonsensical and redundant. I recognize my errors (stage 2 not stage 3, and a comma after Silver) and would be happy to correct them but will not get in an edit war over this.
 * "... Quilava are Fire-type Pokémon, so their attacks are particularly effective against Grass-, Bug-, Ice- and Steel-type, Pokémon, but Water-, Rock-, Ground-type attacks are particularly effective against them. Attacks of the Fire-, Grass-, Bug-, Ice- and Steel-types do little damage to Quilava, and Quilava do little damage to other Fire-types, as well as to Water-, Rock-, Ground- or Dragon-types. All other types have no particular advantage or disadvantage when facing Quilava."
 * "(my version)... Quilava are Fire-type Pokémon, so they naturally are resistent to Grass and Steel attacks (the firey nature of their bodies can burn or melt away these attacks, respectively), while being severely hurt by Water, Rock, and Ground types (dirt and water are obvious ways of extinguish real-world fire). However in several instances the Fire type is evenly matched (e.g. Fighting, Ghost, and Dark), neither Pokémon having a specific advantage."
 * the type of the pokemon has no bearing in its attack's effectiveness against other types of pokemon, only the attack's type; additionally this list gets into minutiae that border on fancruft. If someone really wants to know everything about fire's strenths and weaknesses they can click the wiki link or ref link.  Giving a general idea about how fire in particular plays out and some reasoning behind it (which was lacking) is all that's needed, i might also add this particular paragraph is heavily wikified so i don't understand the need to go on and on listing every single type advantage and weakness.
 * Finally the last paragraph i thought was a rather nice, non-crufty way to add in a few of the moves Quilava is able to learn, basing all observations off of well-defined pokedex data. If you feel this kind of paragraph has no place in an article then maybe you should go delete it off the Bulbasaur article as well, yeah, the one that meets all standards and has been featured....
 * "Being a Fire-type Pokémon, Quilava are privy to a range of fire-based attacks, namely Flamthrower and the highly specialized Flame Wheel (reserved specifically for nimbler Pokémon). The heat of their body also allows them to make smoke, using it in the move Smokescreen. Their agility lets them naturally learn Quick Attack, or be taught Aerial Ace (a speedy aerial attack that can't miss). While Quilava don't always stand on their hind legs, they are still capable of pulling off moves like Crush Claw, Fury Swipes, and Thrash if bred for it."
 * I specifically asked for people to write me first before deleting that paragraph so that we could reach a consensus, it would have been much more considerate to contact me before reversing all my edits in the video games section. Zappernapper 23:02, 7 August 2006 (UTC)  P.S. i'm aware there are spelling and possibly other grammatical errors, but that's what having a wiki is all about
 * Since Highway has taken a wikibreak I've gone ahead and reverted this topic and made some more revisions, any feedback (not inconsiderate reversions and removals) and further revisions are welcome! Zappernapper 06:54, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The problem is that Nintendo has never stated specifically that the advantage of water over fire comes from the water extinguishing water, or that Pokémon must be fast to Flame Wheel. It's not that the edits are intrinsically bad, and while it is a pretty commonsense conclusion to come to, it has two problems: it sounds more in-universe, not less ("Quilava can learn flame wheel" versus "Quilava are privy to a range of fire-based attacks, namely ... the highly specialized Flame Wheel (reserved specifically for nimbler Pokémon)", and it is technically Original Research, which Wikipedia tends be rather tough on. Mind you, I agree that some of this stuff needs a rewrite (perhaps "evolves from a Cyndaquill" rather than "They can evolve as a Cyndaquil into Quilava". smurrayinch e  ster( User ), ( Talk ) 16:55, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you, that's all i was looking for (a critique on the last paragraph rather than complete reversion of everything), and appreciate the feedback. You may be right about the nimbleness being connected to Flame Wheel being too in-universe.  Perhaps to discuss Quilava's move pool a sentence like, "Like many other Fire-type pokemon, Quilava naturally learn several fire based attacks like Flamethrower and Flame Wheel.  Trainers can also teach (wiki that) Quilava the powerful move Fire Blast."  So what about the listing of every type adv/dis for fire?  it seems to appear commonly but i feel like it gets into too much detail for an article about Quilava especially since "Fire-type" is wikied.  Zappernapper 19:06, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Hidden references
While trying to figure out why there's a gap in the References section of the article, I discovered that there's a lot of citations hidden inside of comment tags. Can anyone explain why they're like that? --Brandon Dilbeck 21:56, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

 * They're part of the Template:Pokerefs, which we use in all articles. Some article use them, while others leave them hidden. Cheers, H ig hway Return to Oz...  13:34, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

GA
This article is a GA. Before nominating it for FA, however, I'd reccomend creating a Pokemon TCG section, like in Bulbasaur. Some P.  E  rson  22:05, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's ready to be a GA. It contains content that's most certainly guide content - what level Quilava evolves at, what his type helps him fight against, what a starter is, etc. Also, the manga needs its own section, and the portmanteau thing is speculative - the definition of quill makes a compelling argument, but that doesn't show that it was there intention, and Wikipedians can't present arguments to prove that something is true. - A Link to the Past (talk) 19:37, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Edward Tylecote

Edward Ferdinando Sutton Tylecote (23 June 1849 – 15 March 1938) was an English cricketer. He was born in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire and was educated at Clifton College and played first-class cricket for Oxford University and Kent County Cricket Club. He also played six Test matches for England. His career lasted from 1869 to 1886.

Highest innings record
When he was 19, Tylecote set the then record for the highest score made in a cricket match when playing in a school match at Clifton College for the Classicals against the Moderns. The Moderns batted first, scoring 100, with Tylecote taking three wickets. He then opened for the Classicals, and although this was a one-innings match, the game was continued until all the Classical players had an innings. Tylecote's innings covered three afternoons and six hours as he amassed 404 not out: the first known quadruple century in a cricket match. The next highest score was 52. Tylecote scored one seven, five fives, 21 fours, 39 threes, 42 twos and 87 ones, all of which were run except for one four hit out of the ground. The record has since been exceeded – by another Clifton College schoolboy AEJ Collins – who scored 628 not out.

Tylecote was a good all-round sportsman at school, winning a number of athletics competitions whilst at Clifton.

Oxford University, Kent and England
Tylecote went on to Oxford University, winning his Blue in 1869, 1870, 1871 and 1872. He was captain in the last two of those years. He went on to play for Kent in 1875, and he continued to play for them to 1883. Tylecote also played some cricket for his home county of Bedfordshire, which is not a first-class county, from 1870 to 1877.

He was a member of the Honourable Ivo Bligh's team to Australia to recover the Ashes in 1882/3. A fully representative England side had lost to Australia at home for the first time in 1882, after which a mock obituary to English cricket had appeared in The Sporting Times. The joke at the time was that Bligh's tour was going over to Australia to recover the ashes. This he succeeded in doing, by beating the team that had beaten England two-one, and afterwards Bligh was presented with an urn with ashes in it by some Melburnian ladies as a memento. A poem was attached to the urn, which memorialises Tylecote's contribution, along with the contributions of a number of his teammates:

 * When Ivo goes back with the urn, the urn;
 * Studds, Steel, Read and Tylecote return, return;
 * The welkin will ring loud,
 * The great crowd will feel proud,
 * Seeing Barlow and Bates with the urn, the urn;
 * And the rest coming home with the urn.

Career outside cricket
Outside of cricket Tylecote taught mathematics at the Royal Military Academy in Woolwich from 1875 to 1895, as well as teaching in some preparatory schools. His hobbies included collecting butterflies, and he left his collection to a museum in Oxford. He died in Hunstanton, Norfolk, in 1938.

Yeah! (Def Leppard album)

Yeah! is the ninth studio album by English rock band Def Leppard. It is the first cover album by the band. It was originally intended to be released on 20 September 2005, but it was announced on 31 March 2006 that the album would be released on 23 May 2006. The album charted at No. 16 on the Billboard 200 and No. 52 on the UK Albums Chart.

Artwork
The accompanying booklet contains photographs of the band members recreating classic images from 1970s album art. There are also four group photographs in the CD booklet – on the cover, the centre, inside back cover and the back cover.
 * Rick Savage – Freddie Mercury from the album Queen II
 * Vivian Campbell – Marc Bolan from T. Rex's Electric Warrior
 * Joe Elliott – David Bowie from the rear cover of The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars
 * Rick Allen – Lou Reed, Transformer
 * Phil Collen – The Stooges, Raw Power
 * The inside back cover (back of the CD holder) has a picture with the original triangle Def Leppard logo (from the On Through the Night album), with a shaft of light passing through it and creating a rainbow, a la the cover of Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon.

Reception
Rating the album 4.5 out of 5, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic praised Yeah! as the band's best effort since Hysteria, noting how the band "no longer sound as slick and calculated as they did on their albums after Hysteria; they sound alive and vigorous, making a convincing case that they're now their own best producers." Erlewine concluded that "few bands could achieve an artistic comeback via a covers album, but as this glorious record proves, there are few bands like Def Leppard."

In a 3 out of 5 review, Andy Greene of Rolling Stone wrote that Yeah! was the band's "most convincing album in fourteen years", citing "Rock On" and "Stay With Me" as highlights. He concluded by saying that "none of the arrangements veer far from the originals, but they don't need to - it's good enough to just hear the band having fun and to see where all the Hysteria came from."

Macklemore
Hi! Just wanted to let you know that I tweaked the IPA pronunciation in the article Macklemore a bit—if you'll check the cited source, you'll see that it's mack-le-more and not mackle-more. Cheers, — Preceding signed comment added by Cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 23:50, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Hello, thanks for posting on my talk page about my edits. The IPA that I used is based on the cited source you've provided. The space you've added after the first syllable is only used separate words and not to indicate syllables. In cases where syllables aren't clear you can use a dot. The ʌ contradicts the pronunciation respelling. Clearly the e is pronounced with a neutral sound (ə) and not a u sound (ʌ). The cited source certainly doesn't say it should be a u sound. Please the see Help:IPA_for_English for more info about IPA. Leenewton (talk) 00:40, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I've gone ahead and changed it to /ˈmæk.ləˌmɔr/. Interesting the cited source actually says it should be pronounced "Mack-lé-more". It's a little unclear how é is pronounced. In both French and Spanish it is pronounced like e in IPA, like in my original edits. However to be honest that was just a typo on my part. The original tweet doesn't have these characters in them anyway. Leenewton (talk) 01:29, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Awesome! It looks great now; without the dot, it kind of looked like the first two syllables were all one syllable, which was a concern because a common mispronunciation of the name is making the first two syllables rhyme with "tackle", and without the dot readers unfamiliar with IPA (including myself, apparently!) might have taken it as representing that pronunciation. (Wow, that sentence was incredibly unwieldy.) Thank you for correcting my IPA—that was my first attempt at ever representing a pronunciation with IPA.

Summary
DVD screen capture of the opening titles of the BBC television drama anthology series Play for Today.

Licensing
Source: Screen capture taken from a DVD of the Play for Today Brimstone and Treacle, created and uploaded by User:Angmering. Copyright in this production is owned by the British Broadcasting Corporation.

Fair use rationale for the use of this image in the article Play for Today:

 * The article is about a television programme, and as such is almost impossible to illustrate without using images from the programme concerned.

 * The programme is a major, high-profile example of BBC television drama and British television in general. It is thus an important topic on which to have a Wikipedia article, and one deserving of illustration.

 * As the series was an anthology programme, an image from any one production would not serve for a general overview of the series, but a still of the opening titles, which were present on all editions, does.

 * The image is used for educational and informational purposes only, and is not believed to detract from the production in any way.

Marching arts

The marching arts are a collection of fine arts related activities that are closely associated with wind music. The marching arts include, but are not necessarily limited to marching band, drum corps, mummers string bands, pep band, color guard, winter guard, and indoor percussion. All of these activities are supported at both the high school, collegiate, and adult levels.

Although marching and pep bands initially existed to fill the role of halftime entertainment at football games, the modern marching arts, while maintaining their enduring traditions, have grown into stand-alone activities. The marching arts often participate in competitive events with panels of adjudicators assessing the groups on a number of captions. Some of the captions often assessed in competition are: music performance (ensemble), music performance (individual), music effect, visual performance, visual effect, general effect, color guard, percussion, brass, woodwinds, and drum majors, among others.

Governing bodies
Several governing bodies exist to adjudicate and promote the marching arts:

Drum corps

 * Drum Corps International
 * Drum Corps Associates
 * Drum Corps Japan
 * Drum Corps Europe

Marching band

 * Bands of America
 * USBands
 * Tournament of Bands
 * Mid-America Competing Band Directors Association

Winter guard

 * Winter Guard International

The Sunlandic Twins

The Sunlandic Twins is the seventh album by indie pop band of Montreal. The album continues further into the more electronic territory first explored on 2004's Satanic Panic in the Attic. It was recorded almost entirely by Kevin Barnes, the band's singer and songwriter, in Athens, GA and Oslo, Norway throughout 2004.

Background
Initial pressings of the album contained a bonus EP featuring four new tracks. One of them, "Keep Sending Me Black Fireworks," features Kevin's wife Nina on vocals, while "Art Snob Solutions" features the same instrumental track as the earlier "Will You Let Me into Your Dream". The double vinyl edition of the album included an additional bonus track, "Family Nouveau". The title of "So Begins Our Alabee" refers to the couple's daughter, Alabee Barnes, who is also the partial subject of "Family Nouveau", along with Nina.

"Wraith Pinned to the Mist and Other Games" was featured as a re-recorded jingle in a television commercial for Outback Steakhouse, with altered lyrics. This caused a slight uproar among fans, although Kevin Barnes claimed the income would go towards the band's next tour. "Wraith Pinned to the Mist and Other Games" was also featured in the movie Cloverfield and in the American TV series Weeds. "Everyday Feels Like Sunday", from the bonus EP, was featured on a NASDAQ commercial.

As with the previous six albums, David Barnes, Kevin's brother, created all the artwork for The Sunlandic Twins, including the album cover and an etching on the B-side of the vinyl edition.

Videos were made for "Requiem for O.M.M.2", "So Begins Our Alabee", and "Wraith Pinned to the Mist and Other Games".

Flags of regions of Italy

The twenty Italian regions (including five autonomous regions) each have their own arms, as well as their own gonfalone; more recently they have taken into use normal flags as well. Many regional flags were adopted on 4 November 1995 for National Unity and Armed Forces Day of Italy.
