Native American name controversy

The Native American name controversy is an ongoing discussion about the changing terminology used by the Indigenous peoples of the Americas to describe themselves, as well as how they prefer to be referred to by others. Preferred terms vary primarily by region and age. As Indigenous peoples and communities are diverse, there is no consensus on naming.

Throughout the history of the Americas most of the Indigenous people were collectively called "Indians". The distinct people in the Arctic were called "Eskimos". Eskimo has declined in usage.

When discussing broad groups of peoples, naming may be based on shared language, region, or historical relationship, such as Anishinaabeg, Tupi–Guarani-speaking peoples, Pueblo-dwelling peoples, Amazonian tribes, or LDN peoples (Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota peoples).

Although "Indian" has been the most common collective name, many English exonyms have been used to refer to the Indigenous peoples of the Americas (also known as the New World), who were resident within their own territories when European colonists arrived in the 15th and 16th centuries. Some of these names were based on French, Spanish, or other European language terminology used by earlier explorers and colonists, many of which were derived from the names that tribes called each other. Some resulted from the colonists' attempt to translate endonyms from the native language into their own, or to transliterate by sound. In addition, some names or terms were pejorative, arising from prejudice and fear, during periods of conflict (such as the American Indian Wars) between the cultures involved.

In the 20th and 21st centuries, there has been greater awareness among non-Indigenous peoples that Indigenous peoples in the Americas have been active in discussions of how they wish to be known. Indigenous people have pressed for the elimination of terms they consider to be obsolete, inaccurate, or racist. During the latter half of the 20th century and the rise of the Red Power movement, the United States government responded by proposing the use of the term "Native American" to recognize the primacy of Indigenous peoples' tenure in the country. The term has become widespread nationally but only partially accepted by various Indigenous groups. Other naming conventions have been proposed and used, but none is accepted by all Indigenous groups. Typically, each name has a particular audience and political or cultural connotation, and regional usage varies.

In Canada, the term "First Nations" is generally used for peoples covered by the Indian Act, and "Indigenous peoples" used for Native peoples more generally, including Inuit and Métis, who do not fall under the "First Nations" category. Status Indian remains a legal designation because of the Indian Act.

"Indian" and "American Indian" (since 1492)

Europeans at the time of Christopher Columbus's voyage often referred to all of South and East Asia as "India" or "the Indias/Indies", sometimes dividing the area into "Greater India", "Middle India", and "Lesser India". The oldest surviving terrestrial globe, by Martin Behaim in 1492 (before Columbus' voyage), labels the entire Asian subcontinent region as "India", named ultimately after the Indus River.

Columbus carried a passport in Latin from the Spanish monarchs that dispatched him ad partes Indie ("toward the regions of India") on their behalf. When he landed in the Antilles, Columbus referred to the resident peoples he encountered there as "Indians", reflecting his purported belief that he had reached the Indian Ocean. The name was adopted by other Spanish and ultimately other Europeans; for centuries the Indigenous peoples of the Americas were collectively called "Indians" in various European languages. This misnomer was perpetuated in place naming; the islands of the Caribbean were named, and are still known as, the West Indies.

As European colonists began to settle in the Americas in the 16th and 17th centuries, and have more sustained contact with the resident peoples, they understood that the residents were not a homogeneous group sharing a unified culture and government, but discrete societies with their own distinct languages and social systems. Early historical accounts show that some colonists, including Jesuit missionaries in New France, attempted to learn and record the autonyms of these individual groups, but the use of the general term "Indian" persisted.

In 1968, the American Indian Movement (AIM) was founded in the United States. In 1977, a delegation from the International Indian Treaty Council, an arm of AIM, elected to collectively identify as "American Indian", at the United Nations Conference on Indians in the Americas in Geneva, Switzerland. Some Indigenous activists and public figures, such as Russell Means (Oglala Lakota), have preferred "American Indian" to the more recently adopted "Native American".

Unlikely etymology
In the late 20th century, some amateur etymologists suggested that the origin of the term was not from a confusion with India, but from the Spanish expression En Dios, meaning "in God", or a similar one in Italian. David Wilton notes in Word Myths: Debunking Linguistic Urban Legends that this phrase does not appear in any of Columbus' writing. Wilton says that many European languages since Greek and Roman times used variations of the term "Indian" to describe the peoples of the Indian subcontinent, more than a millennium before the voyages of Columbus.

Objections (since the 1970s)
Objections to the usage of "Indian" and "American Indian" include the fact that "Indian" arose from a historical error, and does not accurately reflect the origin of the people to whom it refers. In addition, some feel that the term has so absorbed negative and demeaning connotations through its historical usage as to render it objectionable in context. Additionally, "American Indian" is often understood to mean only the peoples of the mainland body of the United States, which excludes other peoples considered Indigenous peoples of the Americas; including the Haida, Tlingit, Athabascan, Inuit, Yupik peoples (Yuit/Alutiiq/Cup'ik), Inupiat, and Aleut (i.e., the groups whose traditional languages are Eskimo–Aleut languages). Related groups among these tribal peoples are referred to collectively as either Alaskan Natives (based on geography), First Nations (in Canada), or Siberians.

Supporters of the terms "Indian" and "American Indian" argue that they have been in use for such a long time that many people have become accustomed to them and no longer consider them exonyms. Both terms are still widely used today. "American Indian" appears often in treaties between the United States and the Indigenous peoples with whom they have been negotiating since the colonial period, and many federal, state, and local laws also use it. "American Indian" is the term used in the United States Census.

"Native American" (since the 1960s)
The Oxford English Dictionary cites usage of the uncapitalized term native American in several publications dating to 1737, but it is unclear whether these texts refer to Indigenous peoples, or to persons born on American soil. One early use is the 1817 novel Keep Cool by John Neal, which declares "the Indian is the only native American; he holds his charter from God himself". During the 1850s, a group of Anglo-Saxon Protestant Americans used the capitalized term Native Americans to differentiate themselves from recent Irish and German immigrants, both of which groups were predominantly Catholic. The group later formed the "Know-Nothings", a 19th-century political party that opposed immigration to the United States, a policy known as nativism. The Know-Nothings also called themselves the "Native American Party" and were referred to in the press with the capitalized term.

In 1918, leaders of the Indigenous Peyote Religion incorporated as the Native American Church of Oklahoma. In 1956, British writer Aldous Huxley wrote to thank a correspondent for "your most interesting letter about the Native American churchmen".

The use of Native American or native American to refer to Indigenous peoples who live in the Americas came into widespread, common use during the civil rights era of the 1960s and 1970s. This term was considered to represent historical fact more accurately (i.e., "Native" cultures predated European colonization). In addition, activists also believed it was free of negative historical connotations that had come to be associated with previous terms.

Between 1982 and 1993, most American manuals of style came to agree that "color terms" referring to ethnic groups, such as Black, should be capitalized as proper names, as well as Native American. By 2020, "Indigenous" was also included in these capitalization guidelines.

Other objections to Native American—whether capitalized or not—include a concern that it is often understood to exclude American groups outside the contiguous United States (e.g., Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico), and Indigenous groups in South America, Mexico, and Canada. The word American is sometimes questioned because the people referred to resided in the Americas before they were so named.

As of 1995, according to the US Census Bureau, 50% of people who identified as Indigenous preferred the term American Indian, 37% preferred Native American, and the remainder preferred other terms or had no preference.

"Indigenous" (1980s)
According to The American Heritage Dictionary, "Indigenous specifies that something or someone is native rather than coming or being brought in from elsewhere: an indigenous crop; the Ainu, a people Indigenous to the northernmost islands of Japan."

The United Nations World Summit on Sustainable Development used the term "Indigenous peoples" for the first time in its official political declaration in 2002. Before this date, the term was considered to be "still under debate" for usage in official UN documents.

"Aboriginal" and "Aborigine"
The English adjective "aboriginal" and the noun "aborigine" come from a Latin phrase meaning "from the origin"; the ancient Romans used it to refer to a contemporary group, one of many ancient peoples in Italy. Until about 1910, these terms were used in English to refer to various Indigenous peoples. Today throughout most of the English-speaking world, it is most commonly understood to refer to the Indigenous Australians, with the notable exception of Canada, where the term "aboriginal" (but not aborigine) came into use in the Canadian Constitution Act, 1982.

"Alaska Native"
"Alaska Native" refers to the Indigenous peoples in Alaska, including the Aleut, Athabascan, Haida, Inuit (Inupiat), Tlingit, Yup'ik (Cup'ik, Alutiiq, etc.),and Yupik peoples. The term predominates because of its legal use in the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act, and includes all the above-named peoples. While Athabascans, Haida, Eyak, and Tlingit are American Indians, Inuit, Yupik, and Unangan (Aleut) are not. Likewise, Yupik, Unangan, and Inuit are all district peoples with distinct languages.

"Eskimo"
The term Eskimo was once common, but it is now perceived as derogatory and is being replaced in common use with "Inuit" or individual groups' own names for themselves. As mentioned above, Yupik and Unangan are distinct from Inuit.

In addition to being a name imposed from outside rather than an Inuit term, one reason that Eskimo is considered derogatory is the widespread, but incorrect, perception   that in Algonkian languages, spoken by some competitive historic tribes of present-day Canada and US, it means "eaters of raw meat".

"Inuit" (since 1977)
The Inuit Circumpolar Conference meeting in Barrow, Alaska (now Utqiaġvik), in 1977 officially adopted "Inuit" as a designation for the circumpolar Indigenous groups of the United States, Canada, Greenland, and Russia.

"Amerind" or "Amerindian"
The term "Amerind"/"Amerindian" is a portmanteau of "American Indian". It was coined in 1902 by the American Anthropological Association, but from its creation has been controversial. It was rejected by some leading members of the Association, and while adopted by many it was never universally accepted. Usage in English occurs primarily in anthropological and linguistic contexts, rather than Native American ones; it also finds some use in news outlets in describing the Taíno people of Puerto Rico. The term "Amerind" has official status in Guyana.

"Canadian Indians" (1700s–late 20th century)
The Canadian Indian Act, first passed in 1876, in defining the rights of people of recognized First Nations, refers to them as "Indians". The responsible federal government department was the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development, now Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada, headed by the Minister of Indigenous and Northern Affairs. The Act officially recognizes people commonly known as "Status Indians", although "Registered Indian" is the official term for those on the Indian Register. Lands set aside for the use of First Nations are officially known as Indian reserves (abbreviated IR on maps, etc.). The word "band" is used in band government. Some First Nations communities also use "Indian Band" in their official names.

"Aboriginal peoples" (since 1900) and "Indigenous peoples"
In Canada, the term "Aboriginal peoples in Canada" is used for all Indigenous peoples within the country, including the Inuit and First Nations, as well as the Métis. More recently, the term Indigenous peoples has been used more frequently and in 2015 the federal government department responsible for First Nations, Metis, and Inuit issues changed its name from Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada to Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada.

"First Nations" (since the 1980s)
"First Nations" came into common usage in the 1980s to replace the term "Indian band". Elder Sol Sanderson says that he coined the term in the early 1980s. Others state that the term came into common usage in the 1970s to avoid using the word "Indian", which some people considered offensive. Apparently, no legal definition of the term exists. However, the Assembly of First Nations, the national advocacy group for First Nations peoples, adopted the term in 1985. The singular commonly used is "First Nations person" (when gender-specific, "First Nations man" or "First Nations woman").

"First Peoples"
"First Peoples" is a broad term that includes First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. Owing to its similarity to the term "First Nations", the two terms are sometimes used interchangeably.

"Native Canadians"
"Native" or "Native Canadian" is an ambiguous term, but people frequently use it in conversation or informal writing. A majority use this term for describing Indigenous peoples, including some Indigenous people themselves. This is considered to be quite offensive as Indigenous peoples living in Canada existed prior to colonization and some do not view themselves as Canadians.

Canadian French nomenclature
In Canadian French, the terms are première(s) nation(s) for "First Nations" and autochtone for "Aboriginal" (used both as a noun and adjective).

The term indien or indienne has historically been used in the legislation, notably in the Loi sur les Indiens (The Indian Act), but it is unacceptable outside of this specific context. First Nations in Québec have also called for the term amérindien to be discontinued, in favour of autochtone. The word amérindien contains the word indien (Indian) and since they are not Indians, the word is no longer favored and it has, for example, been removed from some elementary school textbooks. The term indigène is not used as it is seen as having negative connotations because of its similarity to the French indigent ("poor"). It has also acquired further negative associations in French, owing to the indigénat code enforced in French colonial Africa, 1887–1947. The old French term sauvage ("wild, savage") is no longer used either, as it is considered racist.

"Inuit" (since 1977)
The people of the Canadian Arctic are officially known as the Inuit, which means 'the people', or singularly, Inuk, which means 'the person', as a result of the 1977 Inuit Circumpolar Conference. Canada's Constitution Act, 1982, uses "Inuit", as does the Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, the national organization that represents the Inuit in Canada. The preferred term in Canada's Central Arctic is Inuinnaq, and in the eastern Canadian Arctic Inuit. The language is often called Inuktitut, though other local designations are also used.

Anishinaabe
The Algonquin autonym Anishinaabe (also Anishinabe, Anicinape) is used as a cross-tribal term in Algonquian-majority areas, such as Anishnabe Health, Anishnabe Education, and Training Circle. The term is also used among historically Anishinaabe peoples in the Upper Midwest region of the United States.

Chinook Jargon nomenclature
The Chinook Jargon, the old trade language of the Pacific Northwest, uses siwash (an adaptation of the French sauvage) for "Indian", "Native American", or "First Nations", either as adjective or noun. While normally meaning a male native, it is used in certain combinations, such as siwash cosho ("a seal", literally "Indian pig" or "Indian pork"). Many native communities perceive the terms sauvage and siwash negatively, but others use it freely. They consider use by non-natives to be derogatory. In the creolized form of Chinook Jargon spoken at the Grand Ronde Agency in Oregon, a distinction is made between siwash and sawash. The accent in the latter is on the second syllable, resembling the French original, and is used in Grand Ronde Jargon meaning "anything native or Indian"; by contrast, they consider siwash to be defamatory.

The Chinook Jargon term for a native woman is klootchman, an originally Nootka word adopted in regional English to mean a native woman or, as in the Jargon, all women and also anything female. It originated as a compound of Nootka łūts 'female' with the English suffix -man. Hyas klootchman tyee means "queen", klootchman cosho, "sow"; and klootchman tenas or tenas klootchman means "girl" or "little girl". Generally klootchman in regional English simply means a native woman and has not acquired the derisive sense of siwash or squaw. The short form klootch, encountered only in English-Chinook hybrid phrasings, is always derisive, especially in forms such as blue-eyed klootch.

Latin America
In Mexico, the preferred expression used by both the Government and the media is "Indigenous peoples" (pueblos indígenas in Spanish).

In South America, the preferred expression for the population is also Indigenous peoples (pueblos indígenas and pueblos originarios in Spanish, and povos indígenas in Portuguese). In Spanish Latin America, "Indians" (indios) is increasingly no longer used—today, to refer to Indigenous people from a rural area, one would most likely say campesino originario or indígena campesino.

In Brazil, the most usual expression is by far índio, with indígena sounding a little more formal; the Portuguese demonym for the country of India is indiano. Indios is still in common use, including among people of Indigenous identity. In Mexico, Brazil, and several other countries, these names are normally applied only to the ethnic groups that have maintained their identity and, to some extent, their original way of life.

Less common terms for Indigenous peoples of the Americas include amerindio (in Spanish) and ameríndio (in Portuguese).

In most of Latin America there are also large segments of the population with mixed Indigenous and non-Indigenous ancestry, who are largely integrated into mainstream society, and by and large no longer identify themselves with their Indigenous ancestral groups unless they coexist with their ancestral Indigenous nation. Names for such groups include mestizo, zambo and pardo in Spanish, for people with European and Native, African and Native or European and African admixed ancestry respectively, besides castizo for people who are over three-quarters European and around one-fourth Native in ancestry, and caboclo (current) or mameluco (dated), cafuzo, juçara, ainoko/ainoco and sarará in Portuguese, for people of European and Native, Native and African, European, Native and African, East Asian (especially the Japanese) and European with the latter being mostly European and African (with fair hair and skin, but black facial features and/or hair texture) admixed ancestry, respectively, with the first three necessarily involving a degree of Indigenous ancestry. Ainocos and sararás might have some level of Native ancestry. Ainoco is sometimes replaced by another Japanese derived term known as hafu (meaning "half") or eurasiano, the latter term involving people of European and Asian mixed ancestry, particularly East Asian.

In some Spanish-speaking countries, there are also Ladinos who do not have significant European ancestry, but have adopted the culture of the dominant non-Indigenous population. In Brazil, however, assimilated Indigenous people are called caboclos (itself a subset of pardos, or brown people), the same term used for people of European and Amerindian ancestry who do not have at the same time a white-passing phenotype and a mainstream Brazilian cultural identity—which also means that caboclos are not necessarily mestiços (Portuguese for "mixed-race" in general).

"Indigenous peoples"
During the late 20th century the term "Indigenous peoples" evolved into a political term that refers to ethnic groups with historical ties to groups that existed in a territory prior to colonization or formation of a nation state. The "I" is always capitalized as it is in references to a group of people. In the Americas, the term "Indigenous peoples of the Americas" was adopted, and the term is tailored to specific geographic or political regions, such as "Indigenous peoples of Panama". "'Indigenous peoples' ... is a term that internationalizes the experiences, the issues and the struggles of some of the world's colonized peoples", writes Māori educator Linda Tuhiwai Smith. "The final 's' in 'Indigenous peoples' ... [is] a way of recognizing that there are real differences between different Indigenous peoples."

Turtle Islander
A rarely used term is to call the North American continent: Turtle Island. Though officially named North America, a number of histories from various countries make reference to the myth of a continent existing atop a turtle's back. Though not present across all nations and countries, this symbolism and icon has spread to become nearly pan-Indigenous. As Europeans, Asians and Africans have terms that allude to their home continents, "Turtle Islander" is an attempt to do just that.

Indian princess
In some situations, the term "Indian princess" is considered offensive.

There is also a positive usage among some powwow organizations, colleges, and other Indigenous groups who hold pageants and scholarship competitions, who may use the term "Princess" as a component in the titles they award. Generally, these events are for recognizing cultural skills and community leadership. However, some have called for participants to stop using the term "Princess" for these titles, due to the negative stereotypes and the discomfort the nomenclature can cause when interacting with non-Natives, and to replace the term with "more culturally relevant and accurate nomenclature."

Injun
"Injun" is an originally 17th-century mispronunciation of "Indian", generally considered offensive today, used to mock or impersonate Native Americans' or early settlers' supposed heavily accented English (e.g., "Honest Injun", "Injun time"). The word and related terms have been defined as derogatory by Indigenous peoples and are not widely used.

Redskin / Red Indian
Both Americans and Europeans have historically called Native Americans "Red Indians". The term was largely used in the 18th to 20th centuries, partially based on the color metaphors for race which colonists and settlers historically used in North America and Europe, and also to distinguish Native Americans from the Indian people of India.

The term "Red Indians" was also more specifically used by Europeans to refer to the Beothuk, a people living on Newfoundland who used red ochre in spring to paint not only their bodies, but also their houses, canoes, weapons, household appliances and musical instruments.

The term "Redskins" is now mostly seen, by Native Americans in particular, as pejorative and offensive,  as it is the term that was used for body parts used as "proof of kill" when Native Americans were hunted for bounty by colonists on the frontier. There was an American National Football League team named the Washington Redskins until 2020, and "Redskin" is the name of the mascot at the Red Mesa High School on the Navajo Reservation in Teec Nos Pos, Arizona. Native Americans have been protesting against the use of these names by non-Natives since the 1970s.

The National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) maintains that names like Redskins perpetuate negative stereotypes of Native Americans, "Often citing a long held myth by non-Native people that 'Indian' mascots 'honor Native people', American sports businesses such as the NFL's Washington 'Redskins'... continue to profit from harmful stereotypes originated during a time when white superiority and segregation were commonplace."

Savage
Anthropologists once used savage as a blanket term to refer to Indigenous peoples worldwide (for example, Bronisław Malinowski titled his 1929 study The Sexual Life of Savages in North-Western Melanesia). At the beginning of the nineteenth century, representatives of the relatively new United States government often used the term in official records when referring to Indian nations (e.g., Justice Baldwin's concurring opinion in Cherokee Nation v. Georgia ). This was related to their association of non-Christian people as savages. Early anthropologist Lewis H. Morgan posited in Ancient Society (1877) a three-part evolution of societies from, in his terms, savagery through barbarism to civilization. European Christians once broadly used the word "heathens" to refer to Native Americans, a pejorative Christian term that refers to people who do not worship the Christian god.

Squaw
The English word "squaw", when used to refer to Indigenous women, is considered misogynist and racist. Although there has been some controversy on the topic, it is almost always grouped with other words that carry a colonial implication of exotic inferiority based on race, such as "negress". There is a movement to remove the name "squaw" from geographic place names across the United States. There is a minority counter-movement among a small number of academics to "reclaim" what they claim is the possible original meaning of the word, as an in-group term, which could still be offensive if used outside of that speech community. But even this usage would only be relevant to the original, Algonquian-language phonemes of the word—the small parts that make up larger, historical forms—not the English form currently used as a slur. Any effort at "reclamation" would not apply to the much larger Native American community of women who are affected by this slur, as Algonquian-speakers make up only a small minority of those affected by it.

Talk:Alfred Lefébure-Wély

Brilliance v Taste?
I removed the following remark: "It is generally accepted that his compositions are more informed by brilliance than by taste." The reasons?

1) It's unattributed. 2) It's snide, POV and not particularly meaningful. 3) I and other organ lovers I know don't accept it, so it's not as "generally accepted" as all that.

Personally, I think his music is high quality, cheerful, has a good dynamic range and deserves wider recognition. Sasha 12:29, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Hyphens and Accents
In the first sentence of the article the composer's name is currently spelt Louis-James-Alfred Lefébure-Wely, and throughout the article Wely/Wély lacks an acute accent. In his own signature, however, and in every other source I've seen, the surname is Lefébure-Wély. Has this been avoided for a reason? Also, I wonder if the hyphenated first names has been done by someone who just assumed all French names are like that. They're not. DTOx (talk) 09:06, 19 October 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Orlando di Lasso

Arms
Can anyone procure or produce a pic of these? I'm including a blazon. --Daniel C. Boyer 20:58, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Name
My CDs all use "Orlandus Lassus" or "Orlando di Lasso", which is preferred by most other wikis, and by incoming links see here. I'd favour "Orlandus Lassus", but it should certainly be moved. Johnbod (talk) 20:52, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
 * The 2006 Signum recording of his Lamentationes and Requiem uses Orlande de Lassus, actually... though one is tempted too to have a look at some of the articles that refer to him in journals before this Wikipedia article was begun. Will have a go! Schissel | Sound the Note! 13:16, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

 * I suspect it started as Orlande de Lassus because the New Grove does it that way, and we tend to favor their choice. In school I heard mainly Orlando di Lasso, and Orlandus Lassus, in that order, and generally in the context of his secular vs. sacred output, respectively.  Slonimsky does Orlando di Lasso (in Baker's Biographical Dictionary, the other big tome I have within arm's reach).  I'm fine with it as is, but if there's an outcry I could be persuaded to move to Orlando di Lasso.  Does anyone know how MGG does it?  Cheers, Antandrus  (talk) 21:27, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Since he was born in the French speaking part of what is now Belgium, the composer's original name is undoubtedly Roland de Lassus. This name should at least be mentioned together with Orlando di Lasso (the Italianised form) and Orlandus Lassus (the latinised form), as it is used widely in Europe. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Seo2007 (talk • contribs) 12:07, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I think the best title for this article would be "Orlando di Lasso" based upon two very popular sources: (1) Apple Music uses this name, and (2) Probably the most popular madrigal song book of the past 50 years "The A Capella Singer" uses this name. Millions have grown up knowing him and his music as Orlando di Lasso. --Westwind273 (talk) 22:12, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Please put this to bed and change the article. An author search of WorldCat cites "Lasso, Orlando de" 3 times while an author search of WorldCat cites "Lasso, Orlando di" 18,625 . Another example: . I plead that an interested contributor correct this article. Does Orlando di Lasso translate to Roland De Lassus. If yes, Orlando di Lasso is correct.

Composer project review
I've reviewed this article as part of the Composers project review of its B-class articles. This article is of high quality, but it suffers from two defects that would bar a higher rating. The bar to an A rating is the lack of a comprehensive works list, for which references appear to exist. The primary bar to GA consideration is the lack of any inline citations. I'm also a bit surprised that biographies and other materials dedicated to him and his work (which seem to exist) have not been consulted. Read my detailed review on the comments page; questions and comments can be left here or on my talk page.  Magic ♪piano 16:23, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Chanticleer Link
I added a link to the live concert by Chanticleer of the program, "The Divine Orlando," and hours later someone deleted it. Was that deemed to be an invalid addition? (The music at the link is absolutely gorgeous!)

A motet with empathy
One of Lassus's stirring Latin motets is 'Verbum Caro' I recall the lyrics even though I have not sung this since about 1970...

Verbum Caro panem verum Verbum carnem efficit. Fitque sanguis Christi merum et si sensus defficit; Ad firmandum cor sincerum, Sola fides sufficit.

Gesualdo reference
I think the Prophetiae Sibyllarum might be described as anticipating Gesualdo rather than reminiscent of him, since they predate Gesualdo by a few decades. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kylegann (talk • contribs) 17:21, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

Assessment comment
Substituted at 01:58, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

Dogmatically Catholic?
I find this statement bewildering:

"Lassus remained Catholic during this age of religious discord, although not dogmatically so, as may be seen from his more worldly secular songs as well as his imitation Masses and Magnificats based on secular compositions."

What does the creation of secular songs and basing Masses on secular compositions have to do with Lasso's belief in the dogmas of Catholicism? Are we to infer that "dogmatic Catholics" (whatever that means) don't allow the creation of secular songs? I find this sentence questionable and suggest it be re-written.

 * A very good point of course; see what you think now. I wonder too about the assertion that his Mag. output "burgeoned" in a late period... (Just btw, I moved you comment to the bottom of the Talk page, and you can sign using 4 Gilda's (~) thus:) Sparafucil (talk) 22:15, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

Simon of Sicily

Simon of Hauteville (1093 – 1105), called Simon de Hauteville in French and Simone D'Altavilla in Italian, was the eldest son and successor of Roger, Grand Count of Sicily, and Adelaide del Vasto, under whose regency he reigned.

The chronicler Alexander of Telese relates an incident that took place during the childhood of Simon and his brother, Roger: "As the way of children, they were playing a coin game which was a favorite of theirs, and fell to fighting. When they fought, each with a group of boys whom they had gathered together, the younger, Roger, was the conqueror. As a result, he mocked his brother Simon, saying, 'It would be far better that I should have the honor of ruling triumphantly after our father's death than you. However, when I shall be able to do this I shall make you a bishop or even Pope in Rome - to which you're far better suited."

Simon was young when he ascended to the county in 1101 and he died only four years later in Mileto, Calabria in 1105. His death allowed his brother, Roger, who would be King of Sicily, to succeed him.

Talk:Native American name controversy

My edit: Native American is a construct of the government of the United States
and This comes from the article “Indigenous peoples of the Americas”: …the United States government responded by proposing the use of the term "Native American"… It isn’t my creation, although the wording might be imperfect.

I wasn’t able to verify the reference “The Production of Legal Identities Proper to States: The Case of the Permanent Family Surname”. It seemed suspicious so I didn’t include it immediately. No references are given for the other items in the list.

Mea culpa. Someone else can add that clarification if they want. Humphrey Tribble (talk) 20:11, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

First Americans
The First Americans Museum in Oklahoma, which tells the story of the tribal nations from their own perspective, states the following for the term “First Americans”:

“We were the first on this land, though the last to gain US citizenship. This is an emerging term that differentiates our Indigenous people from descendants of settler communities.”

Is that a sufficient source to add a section here about the term? Taste of Independence (talk) 03:48, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

 * That is about one museum's naming decision which is barely commented on in First Americans Museum. Does not seem noteworthy or significant enough to add to this article. 〜 Adflatuss  •  talk  05:18, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Michael Tippett

Two Sheds
A TV interview with Tippet where the interviewer seemed more interested in in Tippet's garden furniture that his music, is supposed to be the inspiration for the Monty Python sketch about Arthur "two sheds" Jackson. Worth a mention? 12.201.7.201 (talk) 03:37, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
 * By all means mention it in our article on the Monty Python sketch, if we have one, and assuming you have the appropriate sources. I don't think it would be relevant in the article on Tippett though, unless Tippett himself was somehow involved in the sketch. --Deskford (talk) 07:26, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

Timing of American influences
The lead says: "New influences, including those of jazz and blues after his first visit to America in 1965, became increasingly evident in his compositions." The "blues" note in the opening melody of the middle movement of ''Concerto for Double String Orchestra" (1937–38) is clearly American in origin. Tony (talk)  08:09, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Could you perhaps provide a WP:RS for that claim? The analysis by Kenneth Gloag in The Cambridge Companion to Michael Tippett (2013, pp. 169−176) makes no mention of American influence, or blues, in the concerto, and neither does David Clarke in his chapter on "Tonal strategies, folksong and Englishness in Tippett’s Concerto for Double String Orchestra" in Tippett Studies (1999, pp. 1−26).  Tim riley  talk   08:51, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Have you heard it? Tony (talk)  11:47, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I have two recordings of it on my shelves, and played one of them (Andrew Davis/BBCSO) to refresh my memory after reading your first comment. I think I can hear what you are referring to, though I'd say that "clearly" is an overstatement, but what you think you hear (and what I think I hear, for that matter) is of no interest to Wikipedia, whereas if you have a WP:RS to quote in support of your take on the music there is no reason at all why you should not do so.  Tim riley  talk   12:53, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

Question
@Tim riley :

Can you please explain how this is "irrelevant and badly cited"? Nirva20 (talk) 17:55, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * It's certainly irrelevant; the extraneous details are too much. I'm also not sure why the punctuation was changed so much; it was not necessary, and introducing an inconsistent form into an FA wasn't a good step. - SchroCat (talk) 18:01, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I disagree. Supporting Irish Home Rule (upper case lettering) was not the same as supporting Sinn Fein, which by all accounts she later did despite her pacifism (that inconsistency led me to not include pacifism). I don't even understand what "introducing an inconsistent form into an FA" means. Could you explain? Thanks.  Nirva20 (talk) 18:07, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Also, the lede in Despard's own article refers to her as "an Anglo-Irish suffragist, socialist, pacifist, Sinn Féin activist, and novelist." Nirva20 (talk) 18:09, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * The article has a consistent form of comma use (for example): your edit changed it and it was inconsistent. That is what I meant and it was a good step to revert that part.Given this is an article about Tippett, rather than Despard, the extra detail is unnecessary here. - SchroCat (talk) 18:39, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Edit conflict - my apologies
 * What conceivable relevance to Tippett's article is it that one of his mother's cousins was Anglo-Irish?
 * What conceivable relevance to Tippett's article is it that one of his mother's cousins was an RC convert?
 * What conceivable relevance to Tippett's article is it that one of his mother's cousins supported the Sinn Fein party?
 * The Women's History Review has incomplete bibliographic detail.
 * The reference to the open ac site does not comply with WP:CITEVAR
 * I hope that clarifies these points. To my regret, and that of many of his admirers, the main author of the article, Brian Boulton, died in 2019, and several of his admirers keep an eye on his 100+ featured articles and strive to maintain them in good order.  Tim riley  talk   18:13, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

 * What about the use of the word "murder" re Herschel Grynszpan and Ernst vom Rath? Both men's articles ledes use the verb "shooting" not "murder". Killing a Nazi during WWII usually is not classified as murder. Nirva20 (talk) 21:19, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * You shouldn’t rely on C-class articles for neutrally presented information. What would you call the killing of an unarmed diplomat during peacetime (given 1938 wasn’t actually during the Second World War)? It’s either murder or assassination, however you look at it. - SchroCat (talk) 21:27, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Nirva20 now blocked for being a sock. - SchroCat (talk) 04:50, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

Toonami (British and Irish TV channel)

Toonami was a British children's channel which aired from September 2003 to May 2007.

Pre-Launch
Toonami was a programming block on Cartoon Network, until June 2002 when its programming was moved to the soon-to-be launched CNX, a new channel launched by Cartoon Network UK, the first Cartoon Network derivative to launch outside North America. CNX did not function like Turner's other kids channels, instead operating as a general entertainment network with children's programming during the day and more adult programming at night, which included martial arts movies, adult-oriented animation like the Adult Swim originals, and dramas like The Shield and Birds of Prey.

At the beginning of 2003, the channel introduced a Toonami programming strand for CNX's daytime hours.

Launch
On 9 July 2003, Turner announced that a standalone Toonami channel would replace CNX beginning in September 2003 and move to the kids section on the EPG, with a Turner spokesperson citing the adult market being "crowded and competitive" as the reason for the channel's closure.

On 1 September, it was officially announced that CNX would rebrand as Toonami on 8 September, and on that day, CNX's slot on all three platforms was moved to the "Kids" sections and relabelled as Toonami, which launched at 6 am on that day.

However, TOM (who was TOM 2, despite America already having switched to TOM 3) was not voiced by Steven Blum (minus when Lockdown aired on the channel in 2003), instead given a new voice actor: Christian Stevenson, otherwise known as DJ BBQ. Stevenson earlier hosted the CNX show Trailer Park alongside Ed Leigh. Previously, when Toonami was still a block on Cartoon Network UK, the block used TOM 1 and had a voice similar to Tansit from Space Ghost Coast to Coast narrating in its bumpers, which many fans believed to be TOM's voice.

In 2005, Toonami was added to the TV and video on demand kids' package for VNL's HomeChoice (now TalkTalk TV). Broadcasting for the channel involved using advanced MPEG-4 compression technology, the first TV channel in the world to do so.

On 6 March 2006, Toonami changed its focus from action cartoons to entertainment in general, as the channel moved to Sky 602 and began airing five live-action shows: Backyard Science, Parker Lewis Can't Lose, Stencil, Hangin' with Mr. Cooper and Life with Derek. Additionally, the entire design of the channel was overhauled, with the stark, simplistic black, white and red logos replaced with blue, as well as the introduction of giggling, blob-like mascots that populated the channel's bumpers and idents.

Merger with Cartoon Network Too
On 2 May 2007, Turner announced that Toonami would cease operations on 24 May 2007 and its EPG slot would be taken over by Cartoon Network Too. This was to allow a full-time Cartoonito channel to launch in Cartoon Network Too's original slot on Sky. On May 24, Toonami ceased operations at 3:00 am and Cartoon Network Too moved into the space shortly afterwards.

2006 power outage
On the night of 26–27 July 2006 Cartoon Network Too, along with its sister channels, suffered a major technical fault due to a power cut in Soho, London, owing to the 2006 European heat wave, with thunderstorms taking full force overnight.

The power cut caused a mix-up of Turner Broadcasting System Europe channels (i.e. Cartoon Network being broadcast on Boomerang and Toonami, with Boomerang being broadcast on Cartoon Network Too). Boomerang +1 was off-air for some time, while TCM, reverted between TCM France and other programming during the times it was able to provide a service.

TCM 2 remained unaffected due to its downtime of time-sharing. Most advertising was suspended and several of the channel websites were offline also. Those who could still receive the channels had a backup transmission played out, making people confused when Cartoon Network Too and Boomerang were showing episodes of The Flintstones at the same time. These backups where played out with a scrolling message which said "We apologise for the disruption to this programme due to technical problems, and we are trying to correct the fault. We will resume normal programming as soon as possible" in multiple languages.

Whilst most channels returned to the air within 5–10 minutes, it took longer for Cartoon Network Too to resume programming, and it was also joked on various animation based forums by Toonami UK viewers, many of whom have made note of their disdain for the direction in which Turner took the brand in the UK, that the backup transmission was more entertaining, purely due to the lack of live action programming aired during the outage.

The idents on Toonami which aired between shows during the power cut displayed the message "Sorry! Toonami is broken, we'll be right back as soon as we fix it.". These idents have since been re-used in disclaimers warning viewers not to try stunts on various shows at home.

Idents
When the channel launched in 2003, the idents would be the Toonami logo in the Sensor Room, or TOM's face, with a voice whispering Toonami. There were also bumpers in the Sensor Room showcasing the latest games, movies, and shows, with TOM displaying the awkward and dorky personality he was known for on the US Toonami. Sara was also in these bumpers, serving as the straight man to TOM's excited demeanor.

Toonami rebranded in 2004 and got rid of TOM. The idents were on a pale cyan background (alike Cartoonito's) and were based on CNX's idents. They had a black rectangle filling up with white before the white part turned into the Toonami logo.

In 2006, Toonami rebranded for the final time using the logo in an azure background and colored monsters which would play with the Toonami logo. The shutdown ident on the website was the Toonami logo, with the "Too" part pushing away the "nami" and the logo changing into the Cartoon Network Too logo on the same background from the 2004 idents.

The Star, Sydney

The Star Sydney (formerly Star City Casino and prior to that, Sydney Harbour Casino) in Pyrmont, Sydney, is the second largest casino in Australia after Melbourne's Crown Casino. Overlooking Darling Harbour, The Star, owned by Star Entertainment Group features two gaming floors, one bar, 3 restaurants, 351 hotel rooms and 130 serviced and privately owned apartments. It also includes the 2,000 seat Sydney Lyric theatre and 3,000-seat Event Centre, the latter designed by Montreal-based theatre design firm Scéno Plus. Its gaming operations are overseen and controlled by the New South Wales Casino Control Authority and is licensed to be the only legal casino in New South Wales. In late 2007, it was granted a 12-year extension of its exclusivity and licence.

In December 1994, a consortium of Leighton Properties and Showboat was announced by the NSW Casino Control Authority as the successful applicant for New South Wales' first casino licence. A temporary casino was opened by Acting Prime Minister Kim Beazley on 13 September 1995 on the site of former wharves 12/13. The permanent casino, designed by Sydney architect, Philip Cox, in joint partnership with American architect, Hillier, opened on 27 November 1997, was one of the largest building projects ever carried out in Australia. The complex is now owned by The Star Entertainment Group.

Gaming
The casino features two gaming floors — the main gaming floor on level one for general entry and the Sovereign Room on level three. The Sovereign Room table bet ranges from $25 to $75,000 and also contains the Inner Sanctum, with table bet ranges of $100 to $500,000. The two areas are only available to high rollers and international guests following an application for membership and review by The Star's management. The Inner Sanctum pits are frequently used for junket players. Star City returned to junket play in 2005 after taking a number of large losses in 2002. Recent rebuilding works have added extra gaming areas for the main gaming floor with the addition of the Oasis Lounge and the 36 Degrees Bar although these new areas have not increased the number of tables or machines available in total. The main gaming floor is divided into three major parts — Table Games, Electronic Gaming, and Poker. The number of poker tables has been steadily increased and now stands at 40 tables. The Sovereign Room has been upgraded and now includes four additional private gaming rooms and extra dining and lounge amenities. These extensions have an estimated cost of $7,000,000. Another recent upgrade is the addition of a new "ultra exclusive" area directly above the Sovereign Room called the Chairmans Lounge. This is accessed by invitation only, and there are currently fewer than 500 Diamond Card Members that are entitled to use the Chairmans Lounge. Star City has recently opened the sports bar as well.

Table games
The Star provides many traditional casino games, including Mini Baccarat, Blackjack, Caribbean Stud, Craps, Pai Gow, Poker, Pontoon, Roulette, Rapid (semi-electronic) Roulette, Sic Bo and Three card poker

Two-Up was available at Star City but was removed at the end of October 2003 as the game was not considered to be economically viable. The pit typically required three dealers and two games supervisors, consequently management felt that returns were not as high as they could be and with Tabcorp insisting on large reductions in overheads and increased profit, this iconic game was closed.

In December 2005, a new game Double-Chance was trialed but was discontinued soon after; Players, referring to the game's high house advantage, dubbed the game 'No-Chance'.

At the end of 2006, Star City introduced a new game, three card baccarat, following minor reorganization of its main gaming floor in preparation for the smoking ban in July 2007 and planned extensions to its gaming floors. This game was also removed from the floor shortly after due to lack of interest from players.

Electronic gaming
The Star provides a selection of electronic gaming machines, including slot machines, bingo, rapid roulette and video poker machines. Rapid Big Wheel was introduced in early 2006 to replace the often slow-paced table game version, which has now been reintroduced, and the Rapid Big Wheel removed in August 2007. The Star has just over 1490 electronic gaming machines but is limited to a maximum 1500.

Security
As in most casinos, the gaming floors of the venue are constantly monitored by a security camera system. Cameras mounted on the roof and in the table signs are used to ensure that all actions are logged. The footage can be used to settle player disputes, identify cheating, and be used in the Australian court system for prosecution.

$500 chips were removed from the casino after fraudulent chips were found. Some chips did make their way into the bank due to limited security features on the chips.

Restaurants and bars
The Star has a large variety of restaurants including five star fine dining. Not all the restaurants are managed by The Star with a number of outlets being privately managed. The Star's Harvest Buffet is known for its all you can eat buffet with seafood buffet over the weekend.

The Star operates eight bars within the complex with a further two outlets designated as bars and another two external independent outlets able to serve alcohol. Bars within the gaming area are not accessible to minors (persons under 18). Some bars have live entertainment, mostly on weekends. The Lagoon Bar and Glo Bar closed in 2009 as part of the refurbishment project.

Marquee
A new nightclub, known as the Marquee, opened on 31 March 2012.

Redevelopment
In 2009, Tabcorp, the then-owners of Star City, announced an A$475 million refurbishment and expansion program called Project Star which involved the re-orientation of the casino towards Sydney Harbour, including a new "iconic" entrance as well as a drop-off zone on the harbour side of the casino site. Work began in late 2009 and was completed late 2012. Despite initial cost estimates, according to Echo Entertainment Group CEO, Larry Mullin the final cost was estimated to be around A$961 million. On 16 September 2011, the casino reopened under the name "The Star".

Popular culture
The venue has featured awards nights including playing host to the annual film and television AACTA Awards. The first 12 episodes of the 2005–2006 Australian television series Joker Poker was filmed in a private gaming room at the casino. The game was dealt by experienced The Star croupiers; however the show was not a success. Also filmed there were several episodes of Beauty and the Geek Australia. The now defunct Ralph magazine shot its swimsuit model of the year competition at Turbines Health Club (pool and gym for the hotel and apartments).

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Australian comedians Alex Apollonov of I Did a Thing and Aleksa Vulović partnered with The Chaser to create a comedic investigation where they attempted to enter The Star casino while displaying as many Covid-19 symptoms as possible to see whether they would be allowed inside during the pandemic. In one attempt, Aleksa tried entering the casino while dressed in hospital surgical garbs, dragging an IV drip stand on wheels, with a high forehead temperature. Despite telling the casino staff that he had come straight from a nearby hospital, he was allowed to enter the casino where he spent his time using the gaming machines while wearing a white shirt saying "I have covid" in bold black letters. "When I rocked up with my hospital gown and drip, the first thing they asked me was whether I had a Star Casino gold membership card." Alex Apollonov followed Aleksa into the casino with a forehead temperature of 48 degrees (achieved using heat packs), which the staff detected with a temperature gun and was still allowed entry to the casino. "My head was still really hot after I got inside," said Apollonov. "I must have drunk 3 or 4 of their complimentary water bottles. They're obviously very used to catering for sick customers." When asked about possible legal repercussions over their comedic stunt, Vulović replied: "There's no point suing us, we already lost all our savings on big wheel during our filming breaks."

Talk:Toonami (British and Irish TV channel)

Creation
This article was created from information previously at Toonami. Please see that article for edit history and copyrights. Mr Weeble Talk Brit tv 23:23, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

Background music question
Does anyone know what the background music is on the Autumn 2005 Static Shock advert with the presenter saying "Virgil doesn't know who to trust" (the music is not used in the actual cartoon itself). It sounds a mixture of synth and violins but I have been completely unable to track down the artist or the title of the music. 20 November 2005.

Answer is Mr Smith by Hybrid. This question was actually answered (and the history of how the answer was found) over in Talk:Toonami. 7th January 2006.

Neutrality
I put the template there because the entire article seems like a put down. While I might agree with you, Wikipedia's an encyclopedia, etc, etc, etc. --Perks 11:07, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Anime? Not on Turner's watch!
Um Uh Um Uh, can anyone cite a sorce as to Toonami UK geting Tokyo Mew Mew, Kirby, Super Mario Super Show (Plus zelda) and Digimon Frountier? I especialy find it hard to believe that Frountier is airing in the UK, let alone on Fauxami. I know Zixx was anounced but the rest is a bit susspissious.

Um Uh Um Eh Ah, Agreed, and untill we get confermation, they're gone from the list. --Conan-san 12:30, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

UM UH, Kirby is on POP, Tokyo Mew Mew is on Pop Girl and Digimon was on Jetix UK in October HMR 17:11, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Okay, take it easy. --The Track Master 14:06, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

The article in question was Jetix (UK). Also Cartoon Network says that it will come to the station 2007. --The Track Master 22:41, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Let's Be honest
This channel has just been going downhill ever since it became Toonami, no disrespect to the U.S Toonami. Ever since they cut out all the good shows, Rave Master, Big O etc I just became so dissapointed with what's left. Repeat after repeat. I'd say ,very soon, that this channel will become another teen soap channel.......it's a crying shame that UK viewers get cheated out of all the great shows that American viewers get!

^one and only truth. Well, with any luck, it'll get closed down sooner rather than later.--Conan-san 13:12, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Right. So they should get rid of their shows and...what about a "DiC Network" in the UK? --The Track Master 18:54, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

 * SatAM is too awesome for them.

Yeah, Toonami went way-way-way-way past cool, so far that they were not cool at all. --The Track Master 15:07, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Protection Request
For the love of all that is holy, could you STOP suggesting that we're geting the likes of Digimon, Tokyo Mew Mew and such untill you have a solid source of proof and by that I meen links and/or scans. It's geting silly and I'm slowly reaching my wits end. --Conan-san 15:54, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Incidently, if I so dare as find out who so plaped the Amimax dub of "Card Captor Sakrua" as a previous show I will ave' you, GP and all. --Conan-san 15:43, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Honeslty Guys, I meen it. Source or die here. --Conan-san 06:28, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

WHAT PART OF "DO NOT ADD SHOWS TO THE COMING SOON UNLESS YOU HAVE A B****Y SORCE" DO YOU T****S DON@T UNDERSTAND?! --Conan-san 07:45, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

To the person who put Digimon Frountier and Mummies Alive without puting solid evidence for it, SOD IS NOW IN EFFECT, SORCE ALL NOTES ON NEW PROGRAMING. Conan-san 09:06, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, you should find a source here HMR 06:40, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately, they're no more shows coming to Toonami UK because it will replace by the whole channel for Cartoonito. HMR 10:08, 07 May 2007 (UTC)

Rave Master's back!
I checked the Sky Digital Programme Guide, and Rave Master is back on Toonami. Can Rave Masterr be switched back to the current airing shows? RedEyesMetal 19:13, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Is toonami going back to Cartoon Network for some new shows?
And channel 5 should get the channel 622 to show baby shows. While Cartoon Network will move CN TOO onto 602 Philip1992 16:39, 22 May 2007 (UTC)Philip1992

No! HMR 19:42, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Inconsistancy/mistake/typo
The sidebar says the channel closed on the 24th but the history text says "This change was happened in 26 May 2007.[1]"

I just noticed the bad grammar of this sentence as well. I won't change it because I am not sure which is the correct date (since I didn't get toonami myself.)

Nature Conservancy (UK)

The Nature Conservancy was a British government agency established in 1949 under the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, drafted in part by Max Nicholson. It was a research council for natural sciences and 'biological service'. This provided legal protection of national nature reserves and Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The first Director General was Captain Cyril Diver. In 1952 Max Nicholson took over as Director General and served until 1966. During this time Nature Conservancy developed, despite opposition from vested interests, as a research and management body which promoted ecology as having broad relevance and application to land use decision-making and management. This included helping to establish the Monks Wood Experimental Station, which was perhaps the first to examine the effect of pesticides on the environment.

In 1966 it was incorporated in to the newly created Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). The Nature Conservancy was separated from the NERC in 1973 and became the Nature Conservancy Council.

Zoran Planinić

Zoran Planinić (born September 12, 1982) is a Croatian former professional basketball player.

Early years
Planinić was born in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the former Yugoslavia. He started his basketball career at HKK Brotnjo Čitluk from Čitluk, Bosnia and Herzegovina and was noticed by KK Cibona where he continued his junior career.

Professional career
In the 1999–2000 season, he started his professional career on loan to Benston Zagreb.

He returned to Cibona Zagreb in 2000 and he was named the Croatian League MVP in 2001. He stayed with Cibona until 2003.

In the 2003 NBA draft, the 6 ft (in shoes), 210 lb point guard/shooting guard was drafted 22nd overall by the New Jersey Nets. In three NBA seasons he averaged 4 points, 1.4 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game. Planinić's three NBA seasons were not notable, with his only distinguishing moment coming in the 2005–06 season, when he hit a spectacular full-court, 77-foot, 3rd-quarter-ending buzzer beater at a home win, on 9 November 2005, against the Utah Jazz.

Planinić's final NBA game was Game 2 of the 2006 Eastern Conference Semi-finals on 10 May 2006 against the Miami Heat. New Jersey would lose the game 89 - 111 with Planinić recording 1 assist and 1 steal. Miami then won the next 3 games and eliminated the Nets from the playoffs.

In the summer of 2006, Planinić and the Nets agreed to a buyout, in which he was sent back to Europe to spend the season with TAU Cerámica of the Spanish ACB League, a team that also featured talented NBA prospect Tiago Splitter. With TAU Cerámica, Planinić won the Spanish Supercup championship in both 2006 and 2007, and the Spanish League championship in 2008.

On 25 June 2008 Planinić signed a two-year contract with the Russian Superleague A club CSKA Moscow. On 17 June 2010, he signed a 2+1 year contract with the Russian PBL club BC Khimki.

On 27 July 2013 he signed a two-year contract with Anadolu Efes. In January 2014, he hit a long-range buzzer beater in the last second of the game to defeat Olimpia Milano by a score of 61–60. In his first season with the team, he averaged 8.4 points and 3.7 assists, over 23 EuroLeague games. In the summer of 2014, Dušan Ivković was appointed as Efes' head coach, and Planinić lost his place in the team. Despite that, he was still under contract for the 2014–15 season.

India Hicks

India Amanda Caroline Hicks (born 5 September 1967) is a British designer, writer, businesswoman and former fashion model. After graduating from the New England School of Photography, Hicks became an interior designer and a model for Ralph Lauren, among others. She moved to the Bahamas in 1996, where she published books, promoted home and beauty products, and introduced a line of jewellery. Hicks travels frequently to disaster sites in her role with the non-profit organisation Global Empowerment Mission. A daughter of Lady Pamela Hicks, she is a descendant of the Mountbatten family and a relative of the British royal family.

Early life
Hicks was born in 1967 in London. Hicks is the third child of Lady Pamela Mountbatten and David Nightingale Hicks. Her mother was a lady-in-waiting to Queen Elizabeth II and her father was a famous interior designer. She is the granddaughter of the Earl and Countess Mountbatten of Burma and the second cousin and goddaughter of Charles III.

Hicks grew up in Oxfordshire, England. She spent holidays at the family estate in Ireland and at her father's self-designed and built Bahamian-holiday home. As a child, she was a tomboy who kept her distance from royal affairs. Hicks was exposed to design at an early age through her father and brother, who were both architects. The 11-year-old Hicks was on holiday in Ireland in 1979 when her grandfather was killed by a bomb planted on his boat. In 1981, she served as bridesmaid to Lady Diana Spencer at her wedding to Prince Charles.

Hicks went to boarding school in Scotland at Gordonstoun, from which she was expelled for having boys in her room. She then backpacked across India. Hicks moved to Boston, Massachusetts at age 18 to study photography  at the New England School of Photography, where she graduated in 1990.

Career
After graduating college, Hicks' father introduced her to Emilio Pucci in Florence, Italy, where she modelled swimsuits. Later, she modelled for Ralph Lauren in New York City, Tod's, J.Crew, and others. She lived in Paris for three years, before moving to New York City for three years. Hicks moved to the Bahamas in 1996.

In the Bahamas, Hicks restored homes, invested and remodelled a hotel, and published several books on design and lifestyle. Her first book called Island Life was a design book with photographs of Hibiscus Hill, a house she designed. This was followed by a second book, Island Beauty, and a third book on photography and design, Island Style. Hicks also started a boutique shop in the Bahamas called the Sugar Mill Trading Company with business partner Linda Griffin. The shop sells jewellery, clothes, household goods, and other items.

From 2005 to 2014, Hicks worked with Crabtree & Evelyn as a spokeswoman and creative consultant for home and skincare products. The company created the India Hicks Island Living and India Hicks Island Night lines of soaps, candles, and perfumes.

In 2008, Hicks co-hosted the second season of the Bravo interior design show Top Design in Los Angeles, California. She introduced her own line of jewellery in 2011. Hicks also became a public commentator on events surrounding the royal family and the 2011 wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton. In 2015, Hicks created an e-commerce venture called India Hicks Inc. with partners Nicholas Keuper and HauteLook. It sells jewellery, handbags, perfumes, beauty products, and other goods. The business grew to more than $10 million in annual revenues.

Hicks also worked with the Home Shopping Network on a line of bedding products called India Hicks Island Living.

Personal life
Hicks met her husband David Flint Wood as a child. They re-connected as adults during a holiday in the Bahamas. She was pregnant with their first child four months after moving to the Bahamas in 1996. They have five children. In late 2020 she announced plans to marry Flint Wood. She married Flint Wood on 10 September 2021 at St Bartholomew's parish church in Brightwell Baldwin, Oxfordshire. Guests at the wedding included Brooke Shields, Kirstie Allsopp, and Sophie Dahl.

The couple have a house, "America Farm" in Ewelme, Oxfordshire, built on land that Hicks had inherited and replacing two redundant farm workers' cottages. Hicks' book about the project, India Hicks: The Story of Four Houses – A Slice of England, was published by Rizzoli International Publications in 2018.

Hicks has competed in several marathons. She also rode a 100 mile bike ride to raise money for cancer victims, in memory of her adopted son's biological mother. She partners with a local food bank and with the disaster relief agency Global Empowerment Mission (GEM). She joined the Global Empowerment Mission's board in 2019. On behalf of GEM, she visited the Abaco Islands after Hurricane Dorian, Alabama after it experienced a tornado, Florida after the surfside condominium collapse, and Poland during Russia's invasion of Ukraine. She is also an ambassador for The Prince's Trust, a charity that helps young people find training, and work opportunities.

In 2020 Hicks pleaded guilty at Uxbridge Magistrates' Court to shoplifting a coat and was ordered to pay costs and a victim surcharge. Her spokesperson stated "The court accepted that at the time of taking the coat, India had simply been absent-minded and hadn't intended to leave without paying for it".

Format
The abstract title is required so it appears in the content list. Unlike short articles or stubs an introduction or abstract section enhances the article. The name introduction could also be used. --Nabu 23:26, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

Cleanup request
This article is a very-well written essay, which is nevertheless unsuitable for Wikipedia. It can and should be re-written, using the essay material as a starting point, and adding sources other than the essay itself (to avoid violating WP:NOR). Besides that, it needs wikification (there are dozens of possible wikilinks) and English grammar/spelling check. Please help. —Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 13:47, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Drop essay structure
The lengthy essays on Frondizi's economic and social policies have inappropriate Introduction and Conclusion sections that do not fit this format. Am also editing for tone - some of it sounds too biased toward Frondizi, as if continuing an anti-Peron argument. Working on it - needs more work. Parkwells (talk) 18:48, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
