Dellow

Dellow cars were made in a factory (owned by Delsons - who produced nuts and bolts) at Alvechurch, just south of Birmingham, England between 1949 and 1956.

Dellow Motors Ltd was started by Ken Delingpole and Ron Lowe to produce road-going sports cars for the enthusiast to use in trials, rallies and hill-climbs.

A small number of very early cars used Austin 7 chassis as per Ron Lowe's special, FUY 374 (Current owner Mr Ken Millard - Wolverhampton). The other prototypes included OP 3835 owned by Earl "Mick" Heighway, HAB 245 (Eric Penn) CAB 282 (Lewis Tracey) and EDE 384 (Merrick). From 1950, with scrap Austin 7's in short supply, an 1172cc Ford 10 engine was utilised in an A-frame chassis with a very light tubular steel framework welded to the chassis and panelled in aluminium, early cars having no doors. The main chassis frame was made from Government-surplus chrome-molybdenum rocket tubes from WW2, these rockets being RP-3 (Rocket Projectile 3 inch) types as used by Hawker Typhoon and Bristol Beaufighter aircraft. Brakes were standard Ford cable/rod operated drums all round.

The tubular A-frame design [supposedly inspired by the pre-war BMW328 chassis] achieved light weight and had a rearward weight bias for trials. Many sporting awards were won by drivers of Dellow cars in the early 1950s, not only in trials but also in other events such as driving tests and hillclimbs. Dellows also took overall honours in the MCC organised Daily Express National Rally and the Circuit of Ireland Rally. Dellow drivers often shone in other forms of motor sport, Tony Marsh from Kinver went on to become RAC Hill Climb Champion on no less than 6 occasions. Peter Collins from Kidderminster, later drove for HWM, BRM and Vanwall, then for Ferrari.

Dellow styling was created by Lionel Evans at his Radpanels coachbuilding business in Kidderminster. The car evolved through several variants known as Mk I to Mk V. Early cars had the Ford beam front axle with a transverse leaf spring and short Panhard rod, quarter elliptics at the rear and Andre Hartford friction dampers all round. The Ford torque-tube was suitably shortened and the vast majority of cars used the 3-speed Ford gearbox but a very small number of cars (KOX 300 being an example) were produced to customer order with a 4-speed gearbox, from the 10M series Morris. The use of a 4-speed Morris box was pioneered by the "Lightweight" of Tony Marsh. Wheels were 5-stud from Ford and could be 16" diameter from the Prefect (narrow rim), 16" from the van (wider rim), 17" from the Popular, 18" also from the van. Later owners often fitted Ballamy 15" wheels in order to use more modern radial tyres. Dellows usually carried twin spare wheels. Some rolling Dellow chassis were sold to individuals who wished to build their own body [which were rarely as good looking as the factory cars ...]. One or two 'Replicas' have been built since the factory closed ...

The Ford E93A engines were mildly tuned and many used twin SU's on a cast alloy 'Dellow' manifold. However, as an option the factory also offered the car with a Wade-Ventor (Roots type) supercharger installation. The MkII saw the introduction of a new and much more robust rear chassis section with coil springs, separate telescopic shock absorbers and a Panhard rod. This stiffer chassis allowed doors to become an optional fitting. The Mk V version was derived from the "Lightweight" Dellow (WRF 81) constructed by Tony Marsh for speed events in 1954. It saw coil springs introduced at the front (over telescopic dampers) although still with a one-piece Ford beam axle. About 300 Dellows in total are believed to have been constructed at Alvechurch.

Complete cars were available from selected dealers across the country and a now-rare sales leaflet was accordingly produced. One Dellow owner even towed a caravan for family holidays and a firm of agricultural engineers bought several Dellows for their reps to drive.

A new company, Dellow Engineering, based in Oldbury near Birmingham produced a Mk VI. It is often incorrectly quoted as having a glass fibre body, but it too was in fact built with alloy panelling. Very few Mk VI's were made.

Cars

 * Dellow Prototypes-1947 -    Ford 10 powered Austin 7 chassis.
 * Dellow Mk I -    1949 -     Ford 10 powered basic 2 seater (no doors).
 * Dellow Mk II -   1951 -     Rear coil springs, telescopic dampers,(optional doors).
 * Dellow Mk III -  1952 -     2+2 model.
 * Dellow Mk IV -   1954? -    2+2 one-off with Ford Consul engine.
 * Dellow Mk V -    1954 -     Coil sprung beam front axle, tuned engine, Mk Vs generally still only had the 3 speed Ford box although the  "Lightweight" WRF 81, now owned by Nigel Brown, had a 4 speed ex-Morris unit.(information from David Haley of the Dellow Register.)
 * Dellow Mk VI -   1957 -     Independent front suspension, ladder chassis.

Response.
I think you fail to realize that this situation is in my favor. It isn't YOUR article, it isn't ANYBODY'S article. The opening crawl will create problems if it ever went onto WP:FA. It will not make it because of the Cast listing, and it won't make it because of the opening crawl and the plot summary. Unlike you, I'm looking into the future for the article.

Basically, I might consider asking Rdsmith4 to give lenience for blatant vandalism of a user page, but I wouldn't consider it if you continue to revert the article. - A Link to the Past (talk) 20:11, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

Because it's lengthy and it should only cover important characters. - A Link to the Past (talk) 20:23, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

Well, that's not UP to you. I have several people who happen to disagree. We are not in competition with IMDB, we only give relevant information. - A Link to the Past (talk) 20:31, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

It's still not good enough. We're not telling the story. I won't suggest you getting unblocked until this article goes on the path to not pretty much telling you the story compressed. - A Link to the Past (talk) 01:06, August 26, 2005 (UTC)

Adolf Bernhard Meyer

Adolf Bernhard Meyer (11 October 1840, Hamburg – 22 August 1911, Dresden) was a German anthropologist, ornithologist, entomologist, and herpetologist. He served for nearly thirty years as director of the Königlich Zoologisches und Anthropologisch-Ethnographisches Museum (now the natural history museum or Museum für Tierkunde Dresden) in Dresden. He worked on comparative anatomy and appreciated the ideas of evolution, and influenced many German scientists by translating into German the 1858 papers by Darwin and Wallace which first proposed evolution by natural selection. Influenced by the writings of Wallace with whom he interacted, he travelled to Southeast Asia, and collected specimens and recorded his observations from the region.

Biography
Meyer was born in a wealthy Jewish family in Hamburg as Aron Baruch Meyer, and was educated at the universities of Göttingen, Vienna, Zürich and Berlin. He became director of the Anthropological and Ethnographic Museum in Dresden in 1874 and continued in that position until his retirement in 1905. He studied medicine in Zurich and published a thesis on electrical stimulation of the nerves. In 1870 he translated the works of Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace into German. Enamoured by Wallace's travelogues, he travelled in the East Indies at the end of the nineteenth century. He collected numerous specimens. Meyer's East Indies bird collection and beetles and butterflies collected in Celebes and New Guinea are in Staatliches Museum für Tierkunde Dresden. The museum was destroyed during the Allied bombing of Dresden, 13–15 February 1945, and many specimens were lost. In 1874 he succeeded Heinrich Gottlieb Ludwig Reichenbach as director at the same museum. Among his inventions were the "Dresden Case" made of iron and glass that he designed to store specimens. It is believed that he held the post until 1904 when anti-semitism led to his suspension. He was forced to resign in 1906 and his position was taken by Arnold Jacobi. He also studied amphibians and reptiles, describing several new species of lizards endemic to New Guinea. In addition to birds he made a study on primates. He described Tarsius sangirensis, the Sangihe tarsier, a small primate that he found in Indonesia in 1897. His knowledge of English allowed him to collaborate with many researchers such as L. W. Wiglesworth with whom he wrote The Birds of Celebes and the Neighbouring Islands (1898). His two volume studies on the skeletons of birds was dedicated to Professors Max Fürbringer and Henri Milne-Edwards.

The brown sicklebill (Epimachus meyeri) was named after him when the species was first recorded in 1884. He published a classification of birds and named and described several new species, among them Queen Carola's parotia (Parotia carolae), Princess Stephanie's astrapia (Astrapia stephaniae), the red-capped flowerpecker (Dicaeum geelvinkianum), and the takahē (Notornis hochstetteri, now Porphyrio hochstetteri ).

Meyer is commemorated in the scientific name of a species of lizard, Typhlosaurus meyeri.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/General Nguyen Ngoc Loan executing a Viet Cong prisoner in Saigon

 This page is an archive of the proposed deletion of the article below. Further comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or on a Votes for Undeletion nomination). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was keep. However, the form of "keep" is in doubt. There were some excellent arguments raised in favor of keeping this only as a redirect or as a merge and redirect (to preserve GFDL). Consensus was not reached on that recommendation. This discussion should continue on the appropriate Talk pages. Rossami (talk) 02:23, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

General Nguyen Ngoc Loan executing a Viet Cong prisoner in Saigon
This article is simply about a photo. The photo has a description field to add information to it. The rest of the info, and the picture itself, is found on the article about the man, Nguyen Ngoc Loan. Elfguy 19:55, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
 * so redirect. Gazpacho 20:03, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Did, someone reverted. Hence this VFD. Elfguy 20:31, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Merge & Redirect (changed from delete, I was unaware of the issues Proto raises below), pretty much same as on Nguyen Ngoc Loan page anyway, I can't see it being useful as a redirect. Alf 20:37, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Re-redirect to Nguyen Ngoc Loan and make it stick. Zoe 20:39, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep - the photo itself is notable. In fact, the photo is probably more notable than the man.-Satori (talk) 21:31, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Is that a Western bias, assuming that a general of a sovereign nation's army is not notable? Zoe 21:42, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the article on photographer who won prize for it. Only break it out to it's own article when it actually gets some meat. Not everything needs a seperate entry. - Mgm|(talk) 21:33, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia is not paper, and there's nothing wrong with keeping a stub on a notable topic.-Satori (talk) 21:41, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep as per Satori. This is a famous photo, enough so that a NY Times obituary of Nguyen Ngoc Loan spends more time discusing the photo, and the event it documents, than it does the man himself.--Soultaco 22:28, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, notable photo. Kappa 22:44, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Merge. Arguably the single most famous photo of the Vietnam war. Fernando Rizo T/C 23:16, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Capitalistroadster makes a fine point below. Changing my vote. Fernando Rizo T/C 01:35, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge with Nguyen Ngoc Loan where it can be a section. Noone is going to look for this title. Capitalistroadster 00:13, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep it's a very famous photo, and a groundbreaking point in photo journalism. Redirecting to the man misses the point. Furthermore, if you merge it with something, is it with the article on the general, Nguyen Ngoc Loan, or the one on Eddie Adams (photographer) the photographer? You're going to end up with a lot of duplicate information in either case. Better to link to the photo page from both for basic information, and write about the personal context on each page. Trollderella 00:41, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge into a new section of Nguyen Ngoc Loan as per sane naming conventions, and leave a redirect as per GFDL.  Of course it's notable, and of course it should be kept.  Nobody has voted to delete, Kappa, don't panic.  This should never, ever have gone to VfD.  And of course it would go to the article on Loan, rather than that on Eddie Adams (photographer).  Is the story of John F Kennedy's assassination kept at Abraham Zapruder?  Keeping this kind of info at such a awkwardly named article is crazy. Proto t c 09:50, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * That would be, but what about a famous photograph of the assasination taken by someone? We are not talking about the man, or the incident, but the photograph itself. Trollderella 17:42, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Merge per Capitalistroadster. Well known photo, but a the added context from the Nguyen Ngoc Loan would be nice. Sjakkalle (Check!)  10:22, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep This photo is incredibly notable. Hipocrite 12:33, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep The photo itself is notable. >>sparkit| TALK << 13:12, August 26, 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: The photo is notable for sure, but the issue is that people will look for either of these 2 men names, and get to their articles, which already have this photo, with almost all the same information, hence making this article somewhat useless. Elfguy 01:57, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment The importance of this image is indisputable. The question, though, is how to find it.  I would have had no idea to look for Nguyen Ngoc Loan.  There ought to be a "famous photographs" or maybe "famous images of war" article to serve as a clearing house for this kind of content.  As a test, how would you have found this picture if you didn't know that it was taken by this man? - Dottore So 22:46, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Good point, there is a category of historic photos or somesuch isn't there? Trollderella 21:46, 27 August 2005 (UTC) PS Yes - Category:Memorable photographs
 * Comment: However, please remember that Wikipedia is not an image gallery.  If you want to find this photograph, Wikipedia isn't really the right tool for that job.  Rossami (talk) 02:23, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Perhaps move to a better title. --Oldak Quill 10:51, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Very good, but please merge with General Nguyen Ngoc or at least rename to a shorter title. Radiant_ >|< 23:20, August 27, 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge --tranquileye 12:23:47, 2005-08-30 (UTC)
 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in an undeletion request). No further edits should be made to this page.

Sam Rutigliano

Sam William Rutigliano (born July 1, 1931) is an American former football coach who is a television football analyst for WEWS, the ABC affiliate in Cleveland. He served as the head coach for the Cleveland Browns of the National Football League (NFL) from 1978 to 1984, compiling a record of 47–50. Rutigliano was the head football coach at Liberty University from 1989 to 1999, tallying a mark of 67–53.

Early life
Rutigliano, the son of Italian immigrants, played high school football at Erasmus Hall High School in Brooklyn. He played college football at East Central Junior College, Tennessee, where he roomed with future professional wrestling star Lou Albano, and Tulsa. He coached at the high school level in New York and Connecticut, including Horace Greeley High School in Chappaqua, NY and Greenwich High School.

Coaching career
He was then defensive backs coach at the University of Connecticut from 1964 to 1965 and the wide receivers coach at the University of Maryland in 1966. In 1967, he became a professional football assistant with the Denver Broncos in 1967. He was an assistant with the New England Patriots, New York Jets, and New Orleans Saints over the next eleven years before being given the head coaching job for the Cleveland Browns in 1978.

Over the next six years, Rutigliano was the coach of the famed "Kardiac Kids" Browns. He led the 1980 Browns to the AFC Central Division Championship. The final play of the Browns' playoff game with the Oakland Raiders would be the most memorable moment in Rutigliano's coaching career. Down 14–12 and within field goal range, Rutigliano decided to run one more play rather than kick a game-winning field goal. The play, called "Red Right 88", resulted in an end-zone interception with 41 seconds left that led to the Browns losing. Despite the early playoff exit, Rutigliano received NFL Coach of the Year honors for the 1980 season. The Browns returned to the playoffs in 1982 in the strike-shortened season that saw them go 4-5 and rally around Paul McDonald as the quarterback for the last three games due to an injury to Sipe. They trailed by three to the Raiders at halftime but gave up 14 unanswered points and lost 27-10. After a 9-7 season the following year, Sipe left the Browns for the United States Football League. McDonald was left as the starter for Cleveland for 1984. After a stretch where the team went 1–7, Rutigliano was fired. He was replaced by defensive coordinator Marty Schottenheimer, who went 4-4 as interim coach and was later retained. In his six and a half seasons with the Browns, Rutigliano compiled a 47–50 record.

After being let go by the Browns, Rutigliano served as an analyst for NBC Sports and ESPN for three years.

In 1988, he was given the head coaching job at Liberty University, with founder Jerry Falwell stating that Rutigliano seemed the man to help "establish a sports program for evangelical young people." He was hired to take over the program from Morgan Hout. He had said no at first when approached but when invited to speak at the campus, he found the idea of being "part of this mission and use my God-given ability as a coach" compelling. In a program that followed Christian standards of no drugs, alcohol, tobacco, or co-ed rooms to go with having curfew and worship, Rutigliano saw it as an advantage for who he wanted in players rather than a disadvantage. The school was subject to creditors not long after he joined the program, but he got to work in raising money for the school utilizing his connections (which he later estimated was in the millions). Owing to their independent status in Division I-AA, the Flames were in a tough position in reaching the playoffs (which they did not end up doing in his tenure), although they did finish in the final rankings in 1995 and 1997. The 1989 season saw Liberty beat top-20 schools in James Madison and Eastern Illinois before their matchup against Eastern Michigan. Playing on the road, the Flames pulled off the 25–24 upset for their first victory over a Division I-A opponent in school history. They won their first six games of the season, the best start for a first-year Liberty coach until 2023. The 1990 team won their first four games and reached 8th in the football rankings. The nine wins in the 1997 season were a season record for the team until 2008. He would serve as coach for eleven years until retiring in 2000. He still ranks as the winningest coach in Liberty football history. His jersey (under "HC") was retired alongside Eric Green, a player on his roster that became Liberty's first NFL draft pick in history, in 2008. He was later inducted into the Liberty Athletics Hall of Fame in 2015.

Hours after leaving the Flames in what seemed like retirement, Rutigliano was hired as an assistant coach under Jack Bicknell with the Barcelona Dragons of the NFL Europe. He later served the same position for the Scottish Claymores of the NFL Europe.

Beginning in 2005, Rutigliano became a Browns analyst for WKYC channel 3 in Cleveland and also for SportsTime Ohio when it began operations in 2006. In 2011, he moved to WEWS-TV 5 to become their Browns analyst.

Player addiction recovery program
Throughout the 1970s, substance abuse, particularly of cocaine, was a rampant problem among NFL players. During Rutigliano's tenure with the Browns, he and Dr. Gregory Collins of the Cleveland Clinic, with the support of team owner Art Modell, founded an anonymous support group known as the "Inner Circle" to help players with substance abuse problems.

In 2007, Rutigliano was given the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence's Bronze Key Award by the NCADD's Northeast Ohio affiliate, Recovery Resources.

LHC
I removed a link to the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) costing billions of dollars from the economics section since the LHC is in fact not a synchrotron light source. -Mike Martin, ALS (Aug. 25, 2005)

Sychrotrons are not just the engines, that are synchrotron light sources. LHC is a synchrotron, and RHIC too.

Errors ID'd by Nature, to correct
The results of what exactly Nature suggested should be corrected is out... italicize each bullet point once you make the correction. -- user:zanimum

 * Motivation for building the things in the first place - no mention of high energy particle physics, although synchrotron light sources are mentioned.
 * electron acceleration power should be electron beam energy

Medical Imaging?
What type of medical imaging is Synchrotron light used for? Is this just another term to describe bremsstrahlung radiation?

Particle Therapy?
Shouldn't particle therapy be mentioned under applications?

Image Caption
Caption for the first imagsddsde used to state "Synchrotrons are now mostly used for producing monochromatic high intensity X-ray beams". This has been removed since it is incorrect. Synchrotrons are actually capable of producing a continuous spectrum from the infrared to the X-ray region. Someone should make this clear in the article. Nowhere could I find it clearly stated that they produce light other than X-rays. The Australian Synchrotron Site has some extensive information that could be of use: http://www.synchrotron.org.au/content.asp?Document_ID=10

The articled cited people with dates of birth and death next to their name. This is totally irrelevant (especially since the names hyperlink to biographical articles) and disrupts the flow of the article tremendously. Therefore I have removed these dates.

23rd Flying Training Squadron

The 23rd Flying Training Squadron is a unit of the United States Air Force, currently assigned to 58th Operations Group performing helicopter training at Fort Novosel, Alabama.

Mission
Since January 1994, the 23d Flying Training Squadron is the United States Air Force's primary source of helicopter pilots for special operations, combat search and rescue, missile support, and distinguished visitor airlift missions. Its mission is providing Air Force helicopter flight training for all undergraduate pilots proceeding to flying careers in the Air Force's UH-1N Huey, HH-60G Pave Hawk or CV-22 Osprey fleets. Tactical training includes alternate insertion and extraction (AIEs) but specialized training like hoists and gunnery is saved for type-qualification in post-graduate flight training at Kirtland AFB, New Mexico to smooth their transition in more complicated aircraft and missions. USAF rotary wing students receive their wings when their Fort Novosel pilot training class is completed.

Antisubmarine operations in the Caribbean
The 23d's first predecessor is the 76th Bombardment Squadron (Medium) which was activated at Salt Lake City Army Air Base, Utah on 15 January 1941. It was redesignated the 23d Antisubmarine Squadron (Heavy) on 3 March 1943, and assigned to the 26th Antisubmarine Wing and moved to Imeson Field, Jacksonville, Florida with a variety of aircraft (North American B-25 Mitchell, Douglas O-43 and a Douglas B-18 Bolo). Coastal patrols were flown over the southeast coast looking for German U-boats.

It deployed to Batista Field, Cuba on 28 February 1943, where it conducted antisubmarine operations until 24 April, then moved to Edinburgh Field, Trinidad on 5 August 1943 and was attached to Antilles Air Command. From Trinidad, was moved to Zandrey Field, Surinam between 15 August 1943 and December. The unit also had elements at NAS Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and rotated its crews to and from Florida to its far-flung operating elements about every 10 weeks. One flight of the squadron was temporarily stationed at Caracas Airport, Venezuela. With the Navy taking over the antisubmarine mission in mid-1943, the squadron returned to the United States via Borinquen Field, Puerto Rico, where unit personnel were reassigned to other units. It was disbanded on 6 February 1944.

Troop carrier operations in Europe
The second predecessor of the unit was activated as the 23d Troop Carrier Squadron on 21 November 1944 at Pope Field, North Carolina and equipped with Douglas C-47 Skytrains. Assigned to the 349th Troop Carrier Group of IX Troop Carrier Command in England, at RAF Barkston Heath, the unit transported cargo and personnel throughout the European Theater of Operation. Later operated from Advanced Landing Grounds in France, primarily resupply and casualty evacuation airfields, many times unsurfaced close to the front lines. Was upgraded to the Curtiss C-46 Commando in early 1945. Inactivated on 7 September 1946 after serving with the United States Air Forces in Europe as an intra-theater transport squadron supporting the occupation forces in Germany.

Helicopter airlift
The activation of the 23d Helicopter Squadron on 9 July 1956, was the result of the inactivation of the 516th Troop Carrier Group (Assault, Rotary Wing). The 516th had been a victim of an Air Force and Army dispute over control of assault helicopters. The squadron was activated at Sewart Air Force Base, Tennessee, and assigned to Eighteenth Air Force. The squadron was formed by absorbing the personnel, aircraft, and equipment of the 345th Troop Carrier Squadron (Assault, Rotary Wing).

The squadron moved to Phalsbourg-Bourscheid Air Base France, the squadron arrived at the new base between 7 and 15 November 1956, equipped with Piasecki H-21 helicopters. Built for a tactical fighter wing, Phalsbourg had plenty of hangar space and quarters for the 23d Squadron. It could keep all its H-21Bs indoors.

The 23d Helicopter Squadron provided useful general airlift support throughout France. Standard helicopter missions included: Special Airlift Missions, Administrative Support Mission, and Emergency Air Evacuation Missions. It transferred injured U.S. personnel and dependents that required major medical attention to full-service hospitals from remote military sites across Europe. It was assigned to the 322d Air Division at Évreux-Fauville Air Base, France for operational control, mission scheduling, and airlift priorities. The 322d recommended that the 23d Helicopter Squadron be divided into four detachments for greater utilization.

 * Detachments #1 and #4 remained at Phalsbourg with ten aircraft. Major maintenance was performed by teams dispatched from Phalsbourg, and all H-21B-peculiar spare parts were stocked at Phalsbourg.
 * Detachment #2 flew four H-21s to RAF Wethersfield, England. These four H-21Bs were equipped with air-sea hoist provisions for rescue flights.
 * Detachment #3 relocated four H-21s to Wheelus Air Base, Libya in December 1956 to support gunnery range operations at El Uotia and Tarhuna, and to assist the Martin TM-61 Matador missile launches and flight test programs.

After a year of operation, USAFE felt the limitations of helicopter airlift were not worth the costs, and decided to eliminate the 23d Helicopter Squadron from its force structure after fourteen months in Europe. Also during this same time, the United States Army in France was obtaining similar helicopter airlift capabilities, and the mission of the 23d could be transferred to USAREUR.

The squadron was inactivated on 8 January 1958. However, the Detachment at Wheelus was so successful that after the 23d departed France, six of their H-21Bs continued to operate, as part of the 7272d Flying Training Wing. During 1960 the Wheelus helicopters participated in an ongoing long distance rescue mission when they evacuated American and European civilians from the Republic of the Congo (Léopoldville), where they were being threatened by rioting native troops.

Vietnam War

The final predecessor of the squadron was organized on 15 April 1966 as the 23d Tactical Air Support Squadron at Udorn Royal Thai Air Force Base, Thailand, and operated from Nakhon Phanom Royal Thai Air Force Base, Thailand, from 15 April 1966 – 22 September 1975.

The 23d Tactical Air Support Squadron was created out of the personnel and equipment of Detachment 3 of the 505th Tactical Control Group Lt. Col. (selectee) Robert L. Johnston. Lt. Col Johnston selected Nakhon Phanom Royal Thai Air Force Base for operations in the Steel Tiger portion of the Ho Chi Minh Trail between Nape Pass and Tchepone in the Laos Panhandle. It was the first USAF combat squadron to be stationed at Nakhon Phanom to operate across the Mekong River over Laos. Its operations would be countered by a North Vietnamese increase in number, type, and caliber of antiaircraft weaponry. By 1972, the Ho Chi Minh Trail would be defended by guns ranging from heavy machine guns to 100mm cannon, and both truck-borne and man-portable surface to air missiles.

Five Forward Air Controller (FAC)s went to Nakhon Phanom in January to test the idea of working the Steel Tiger portion of the Ho Chi Minh Trail, and many more came there on temporary duty during the following months. Losses of 23d pilots started in March with Capt. Karl Edward Worst, whose plane disappeared 2 March 1966 in an apparent mid-air collision with a Republic F-105 Thunderchief during an air strike.

The unit and mission were initially called Operation Cricket, which name the area airborne control ship took for a call sign, and the original pilot call sign was "Gombey". This was changed to "Nail" in mid-1966, and "Nail" remained a call sign until war's end. The 23d also used the call sign "Rustic". The 23d's well-known unit patch featuring Jiminy Cricket with a walkie-talkie and an umbrella was sold to the squadron by Walt Disney for $1 in response to a request from Nail pilot John Taylor.

The 23d, like its sister FAC squadrons based in Vietnam, initially flew Cessna O-1 Bird Dogs in 1966 and into 1968, when the last one was retired. All of its O-1's were the F variant, which featured a variable-pitch propeller. In 1967, the unit began receiving Cessna O-2 Skymasters to replace the O-1s. In 1969, the squadron began to receive North American OV-10 Broncos, and flew that aircraft until the end of the war. Over the course of the war, the 23d lost 7 O-1s, 15 O-2s, and 23 OV-10s.

The 23d lost at least 27 pilots during the war, and its pilots received many Air Force combat decorations. On 27 January 1973, one day before the Paris Peace Accords came into effect, a squadron OV-10 Bronco #68-3806, call sign Nail 89 acting as forward air controller for the attempted rescue of a Navy F-4 Phantom II crew, was hit by an SA-7 missile, both crewmen ejected and radio contact was established with one of them who said he was about to be captured. Neither crewman was returned during Operation Homecoming and both are listed as presumptive finding of death.

On 12 April 1975 the 23d supported Operation Eagle Pull, the evacuation of Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The 23d was inactivated on 22 September 1975.

Reactivation in the US

The squadron was reactivated on 30 November 1975 at as part of the 602d Tactical Air Control Wing at Bergstrom Air Force Base, Texas, where it trained OV-10 forward air controllers before moving to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona on 1 July 1980. The 27th Tactical Air Support Squadron, an O-2A sister squadron, was at Davis-Monthan. The 27th was inactivated and the 23d assumed its mission, personnel and equipment, until it was again inactivated on 1 November 1991. The 23d operated 26 Cessna OA-37 Dragonflys. In September 1985, as part of a program to merge Air Force units formed after World War II with units that had seen service during the war, the 23d Tactical Air Support Squadron was consolidated with its three predecessor units.

Helicopter pilot training
The squadron was redesignated the 23d Flying Training Flight on 22 December 1993, it was reactivated on 15 January 1994 at Fort Rucker (now Fort Novosel), Alabama as part of the 542d Operations Group at Kirtland Air Force Base, which conducted USAF helicopter training.

Reassigned to the 58th Operations Group on 1 April 1994, it was redesignated as the 23d Flying Training Squadron on 21 December 1999. At Fort Rucker, it is housed in three geographically-separated facilities and a simulator facility off-base, the 23d handles academic, simulator, and flight line training.

The Beechcraft C-12 Huron was added to the 23d's aircraft inventory in 2000. In addition to the helicopter pilot training, the 23d, with Detachment 5, Air Mobility Command Air Operations Squadron, oversees the formal training for the Air Force's C-12 C/D Super King Air 200. Detachment 5 conducts all USAF C-12 flight evaluations, and also assists HQ DIA/Air Operations in worldwide flight evaluations upon request. Detachment 5, in association with HQ Air Mobility Command develops, publishes, and implements curriculum for several courses, including academics, simulator training, flight training for Air Force C-12 initial qualification and initial instructor qualification.

British Rail Class 310

The British Rail Class 310 was a slam-door, alternating current (AC) electric multiple-unit passenger train (EMU) introduced in 1965 as part of the West Coast Main Line electrification project. They were initially classified as Class AM10 units before the introduction of the TOPS classification system. Constructed at BR's Derby Carriage and Wagon Works. They consisted of four carriages - a second class driving trailer, a second class trailer, a second class motor car (with guard's/luggage compartment above which the Stone Faiveley AMBR pantograph was mounted) and a composite (1st and 2nd class) driving trailer. The maximum speed was 75 mph. A glass partition behind the driver's cab enabled passengers in the leading and rear coaches to view the line ahead or behind.

History
They introduced some new features; the first standard multiple units with disc brakes (emergency stop from top speed in 33 seconds over 800 yd); the first naturally air-cooled rectifiers (silicon diodes on cups of beryllium oxide), inductors and transformers. Noise was reduced by sprayed asbestos on the floor, body and roof.

Original livery was overall Rail Blue, later amended to the standard BR blue and grey colour scheme.

Initially they were primarily used on local services from London Euston to Bletchley, Milton Keynes, Northampton and Birmingham New Street, and within the West Midlands. They were also the first EMUs to be based on the British Rail Mark 2 bodyshell, which featured semi-integral construction.

During the mid-1980s they underwent their heavy C1 refurbishment at Wolverton which included new flat windscreens, a corridor connection between the Motor Vehicle (MBS) and trailer (TSO), and a PA system among other modifications.

The Class 310 has a nearly identical body shell to that of the Class 312, there are some minor detail differences in the equipment locations and the MBS has a separate guards van and storage area whereas on the 312 it is combined. The braking system is slightly different with ventilated brake discs on the axles of the B4 non-powered bogies attached to the axles whereas on the Class 312 they are mounted on the wheel discs (this permits easy replacement in the case of defects). As are the motor bogies axles on the Class 310. When first arriving on the LT&S the Class 310 were modified with an additional plug being inserted in the dummy cylinder of each vehicle and a different size "choke" fitted in the Electro-pneumatic (EP)valve to improve the braking performance to that required on a more intensive service. Also the cast BR double arrows were removed from the cab sides on arrival, or soon after at East Ham Depot. The Class 310 stock also were used for a short while on the newly electrified route to Cambridge prior to replacement with more modern stock.

The motors differed from the class 312 in that the gear ratio is lower which accounts for the maximum speed of 75 mph compared to 90 mph on the Class 312. The B4 bogies on the Class 310 are fitted with friction primary dampers whereas on the 312 they are hydraulic.

The main fleet of Class 310/0 units was replaced on the Euston commuter routes with Class 317/1 units which began to enter service on the route in late 1987, however the Class 317 units were then superseded by the new build of Class 321/4 within about 2 years.

Most Class 310 units that survived into the 21st century were withdrawn between 2001 and 2002.

Sub-classes

 * 310/0 - four-car units. All 310s were originally 310/0s.
 * 310/1 - Four-car units (reduced to three-cars in the mid-1990s) modified for use in the Midlands.

Accidents and incidents

 * 18 April 1967, Unit 094 collided with a derailed mineral train between Northampton and Roade. Car 76178 was written off and the other cars were out of service as spares. 310 094 returned to service in April 1975 with two original cars and two from other units.
 * 5 August 1967, Unit 081 0735 Stafford to Rugby rear-end collision by runaway Trentham to Lea Hall Colliery coal train hauled by D5090 at Rugeley. The unit was repaired.
 * 8 April 1969, Unit 066 involved in head-on collision at Monmore Green, Wolverhampton.
 * 4 July 1969, unit Nos 072 & 057, 6 out of 8 carriages derailed at Willesden after colliding with infrastructure.
 * 31 December 1969, Unit 071 collided with derailed freight train at Roade.
 * 26 July 1971, a unit of the class departed from Macclesfield, Cheshire against signals and was derailed by trap points.
 * 20 April 1980, 310 052 collided with track maintenance equipment at Bushey leading to a bogie derailment.
 * 11 October 1984 - 310 067 & 310 086 collided with a freightliner train near Wembley Central after passing a signal at danger.
 * 4 August 1990 - 310 102 running as empty coaching stock, involved in a rear-end collision with a stationary train at Stafford.

Privatisation
All 310/0 units came under the control of LTS Rail (now c2c) which operated them on the London, Tilbury and Southend line. They were replaced by Class 357 units from 1999 to 2002.

The thirteen 310/1 units came under the control of Central Trains. All were withdrawn by 2002 and replaced by a mixture of Class 170 and Class 323 units.

Departmental usage

In 2002, vehicles from two Class 310/1 units, numbers 310109 and 310113, were used to create a single four-car departmental unit, 960201 which could operate on either alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC) lines for test purposes. The set consisted of two driving cars, a Class 310 power car with Hitachi equipment and either a standard Class 310 25 kV power car or a modified 650 V third rail vehicle from a Class 423 (4-VEP) unit. One of these two vehicles was included in the formation depending upon where the unit was operating (on 25 kV overhead lines or third rail). To facilitate third rail running, shoegear was fitted to each driving car. The unit was known as the 'Hitachi Verification Train' or 'V Train' and was used by Hitachi to test and prove its traction equipment in the UK. The subsequent order for the Class 395 Javelin trains which now run on the High Speed 1 line benefitted from this exercise. The V train was scrapped at MoD Pig's Bay in Shoeburyness in 2007.

Preservation
While there were efforts online to acquire a single unit, none of the Class 310 units were preserved.

Marcella Althaus-Reid

Marcella Maria Althaus-Reid (Rosario, Santa Fe, Argentina 11 May 1952 – Edinburgh, Scotland 20 February 2009) was an Argentine Professor of Contextual Theology at New College, the University of Edinburgh. When appointed, she was the only woman professor of theology at a Scottish University and the first woman professor of theology at New College in its 160-year history.

She was born in Rosario,, and graduated with a Bachelor in Theology Degree from ISEDET, the Protestant University Institute in Buenos Aires. She completed her Ph.D. at the University of St Andrews, Scotland. Her interests included liberation theology, feminist theology and queer theology.

Life
Althaus-Reid was born in Rosario, Argentina. She grew up in Buenos Aires, where she graduated with a BA in Theology from the Instituto Superior Evangelico de Estudios Teologicos (ISEDET) ecumenical theological institution in Buenos Aires, oriented toward liberation theology. She studied with liberation theologians including Jose Miguez Bonino and Jose Severino Croatto.

She was a member of the Evangelical Methodist Church of Argentina. She followed the methods of Paulo Freire, undertaking community and social projects supported by the church in impoverished neighborhoods of Buenos Aires. Due to her experience and accomplishments in this regard, Althaus-Reid was invited to Scotland, where she worked in poor neighborhoods of Dundee and Perth, coordinating projects inspired by the liberationist pedagogy of Freire.

She completed her doctorate in 1994 at the University of St Andrews, Scotland, writing her doctoral thesis on the influence of Paul Ricoeur in the methodology of liberation theology. Her academic interests included liberation theology, feminist theology and queer theology. Subsequently, she was appointed Professor of Contextual Theology at New College, University of Edinburgh.

Althaus-Reid died on 20 February 2009, in Edinburgh, Scotland, where she had lived since 1986. At the time of her death she was Director of the International Association for Queer Theology, Director of the Queer Theology Project at the University of Edinburgh, and a member of the Metropolitan Community Church. In the last years of her life, she worked with the Argentine theologian Ivan Petrella to publicize liberation theology in the English-speaking world. She was also associate editor of the journal Studies in World Christianity and a member of the editorial board of the journal Concilium.

Thought
Althaus-Reid is perhaps most well known for her 2002 work in Indecent Theology, in which she challenged feminists in her use of sexual and explicit language. She argued sex has been constructed by a patriarchal worldview which underpins many of the great atrocities of the world. Hence, the virginity of the Virgin Mary needs to be "indecented" as it hides the lives of many poor women who, she describes, as rarely being virgins.

She also speaks about an "indecent Christ," whereby a kenotic Christology speaks of God self-emptying and being embodied in Christ and human sexuality. She explains that "[Jesus] has been dressed theologically as a heterosexually oriented (celibate) man. Jesus with erased genitalia; Jesus minus erotic body." Instead, she speaks about the bi-sexuality of Christ as an inclusive understanding of the incarnation. She wants to argue for a larger Christology which recasts Jesus in postmodern sexualities, genders, and economic locations. This is a critique she had against Latin American liberation theology, which she understood as failing to address questions of gender and sexuality alongside the question of conquest and colonization of the Americas.

Predictive modelling

Predictive modelling uses statistics to predict outcomes. Most often the event one wants to predict is in the future, but predictive modelling can be applied to any type of unknown event, regardless of when it occurred. For example, predictive models are often used to detect crimes and identify suspects, after the crime has taken place.

In many cases, the model is chosen on the basis of detection theory to try to guess the probability of an outcome given a set amount of input data, for example given an email determining how likely that it is spam.

Models can use one or more classifiers in trying to determine the probability of a set of data belonging to another set. For example, a model might be used to determine whether an email is spam or "ham" (non-spam).

Depending on definitional boundaries, predictive modelling is synonymous with, or largely overlapping with, the field of machine learning, as it is more commonly referred to in academic or research and development contexts. When deployed commercially, predictive modelling is often referred to as predictive analytics.

Predictive modelling is often contrasted with causal modelling/analysis. In the former, one may be entirely satisfied to make use of indicators of, or proxies for, the outcome of interest. In the latter, one seeks to determine true cause-and-effect relationships. This distinction has given rise to a burgeoning literature in the fields of research methods and statistics and to the common statement that "correlation does not imply causation".

Models
Nearly any statistical model can be used for prediction purposes. Broadly speaking, there are two classes of predictive models: parametric and non-parametric. A third class, semi-parametric models, includes features of both. Parametric models make "specific assumptions with regard to one or more of the population parameters that characterize the underlying distribution(s)". Non-parametric models "typically involve fewer assumptions of structure and distributional form [than parametric models] but usually contain strong assumptions about independencies".

Uplift modelling
Uplift modelling is a technique for modelling the change in probability caused by an action. Typically this is a marketing action such as an offer to buy a product, to use a product more or to re-sign a contract. For example, in a retention campaign you wish to predict the change in probability that a customer will remain a customer if they are contacted. A model of the change in probability allows the retention campaign to be targeted at those customers on whom the change in probability will be beneficial. This allows the retention programme to avoid triggering unnecessary churn or customer attrition without wasting money contacting people who would act anyway.

Archaeology
Predictive modelling in archaeology gets its foundations from Gordon Willey's mid-fifties work in the Virú Valley of Peru. Complete, intensive surveys were performed then covariability between cultural remains and natural features such as slope and vegetation were determined. Development of quantitative methods and a greater availability of applicable data led to growth of the discipline in the 1960s and by the late 1980s, substantial progress had been made by major land managers worldwide.

Generally, predictive modelling in archaeology is establishing statistically valid causal or covariable relationships between natural proxies such as soil types, elevation, slope, vegetation, proximity to water, geology, geomorphology, etc., and the presence of archaeological features. Through analysis of these quantifiable attributes from land that has undergone archaeological survey, sometimes the "archaeological sensitivity" of unsurveyed areas can be anticipated based on the natural proxies in those areas. Large land managers in the United States, such as the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the Department of Defense (DOD), and numerous highway and parks agencies, have successfully employed this strategy. By using predictive modelling in their cultural resource management plans, they are capable of making more informed decisions when planning for activities that have the potential to require ground disturbance and subsequently affect archaeological sites.

Customer relationship management
Predictive modelling is used extensively in analytical customer relationship management and data mining to produce customer-level models that describe the likelihood that a customer will take a particular action. The actions are usually sales, marketing and customer retention related.

For example, a large consumer organization such as a mobile telecommunications operator will have a set of predictive models for product cross-sell, product deep-sell (or upselling) and churn. It is also now more common for such an organization to have a model of savability using an uplift model. This predicts the likelihood that a customer can be saved at the end of a contract period (the change in churn probability) as opposed to the standard churn prediction model.

Auto insurance
Predictive modelling is utilised in vehicle insurance to assign risk of incidents to policy holders from information obtained from policy holders. This is extensively employed in usage-based insurance solutions where predictive models utilise telemetry-based data to build a model of predictive risk for claim likelihood. Black-box auto insurance predictive models utilise GPS or accelerometer sensor input only. Some models include a wide range of predictive input beyond basic telemetry including advanced driving behaviour, independent crash records, road history, and user profiles to provide improved risk models.

Health care
In 2009 Parkland Health & Hospital System began analyzing electronic medical records in order to use predictive modeling to help identify patients at high risk of readmission. Initially, the hospital focused on patients with congestive heart failure, but the program has expanded to include patients with diabetes, acute myocardial infarction, and pneumonia.

In 2018, Banerjee et al. proposed a deep learning model for estimating short-term life expectancy (>3 months) of the patients by analyzing free-text clinical notes in the electronic medical record, while maintaining the temporal visit sequence. The model was trained on a large dataset (10,293 patients) and validated on a separated dataset (1818 patients). It achieved an area under the ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) curve of 0.89. To provide explain-ability, they developed an interactive graphical tool that may improve physician understanding of the basis for the model's predictions. The high accuracy and explain-ability of the PPES-Met model may enable the model to be used as a decision support tool to personalize metastatic cancer treatment and provide valuable assistance to physicians.

The first clinical prediction model reporting guidelines were published in 2015 (Transparent reporting of a multivariable prediction model for individual prognosis or diagnosis (TRIPOD)), and have since been updated.

Predictive modelling has been used to estimate surgery duration.

Algorithmic trading
Predictive modeling in trading is a modeling process wherein the probability of an outcome is predicted using a set of predictor variables. Predictive models can be built for different assets like stocks, futures, currencies, commodities etc. Predictive modeling is still extensively used by trading firms to devise strategies and trade. It utilizes mathematically advanced software to evaluate indicators on price, volume, open interest and other historical data, to discover repeatable patterns.

Lead tracking systems
Predictive modelling gives lead generators a head start by forecasting data-driven outcomes for each potential campaign. This method saves time and exposes potential blind spots to help client make smarter decisions.

Notable failures of predictive modeling
Although not widely discussed by the mainstream predictive modeling community, predictive modeling is a methodology that has been widely used in the financial industry in the past and some of the major failures contributed to the financial crisis of 2007–2008. These failures exemplify the danger of relying exclusively on models that are essentially backward looking in nature. The following examples are by no mean a complete list:

 * 1) Bond rating. S&P, Moody's and Fitch quantify the probability of default of bonds with discrete variables called rating. The rating can take on discrete values from AAA down to D. The rating is a predictor of the risk of default based on a variety of variables associated with the borrower and historical macroeconomic data. The rating agencies failed with their ratings on the US$600 billion mortgage backed Collateralized Debt Obligation (CDO) market. Almost the entire AAA sector (and the super-AAA sector, a new rating the rating agencies provided to represent super safe investment) of the CDO market defaulted or severely downgraded during 2008, many of which obtained their ratings less than just a year previously.
 * 2) So far, no statistical models that attempt to predict equity market prices based on historical data are considered to consistently make correct predictions over the long term. One particularly memorable failure is that of Long Term Capital Management, a fund that hired highly qualified analysts, including a Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences winner, to develop a sophisticated statistical model that predicted the price spreads between different securities. The models produced impressive profits until a major debacle that caused the then Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan to step in to broker a rescue plan by the Wall Street broker dealers in order to prevent a meltdown of the bond market.

Possible fundamental limitations of predictive models based on data fitting
History cannot always accurately predict the future. Using relations derived from historical data to predict the future implicitly assumes there are certain lasting conditions or constants in a complex system. This almost always leads to some imprecision when the system involves people.

Unknown unknowns are an issue. In all data collection, the collector first defines the set of variables for which data is collected. However, no matter how extensive the collector considers his/her selection of the variables, there is always the possibility of new variables that have not been considered or even defined, yet are critical to the outcome.

Algorithms can be defeated adversarially. After an algorithm becomes an accepted standard of measurement, it can be taken advantage of by people who understand the algorithm and have the incentive to fool or manipulate the outcome. This is what happened to the CDO rating described above. The CDO dealers actively fulfilled the rating agencies' input to reach an AAA or super-AAA on the CDO they were issuing, by cleverly manipulating variables that were "unknown" to the rating agencies' "sophisticated" models.

Untitled
Isadora Duncan was *not* a "Jazz" dancer. She was however one of the founders of modern dance, initiating a natural style of movement that was completely new in her time. For the record though she actively disliked Jazz and danced primarily to classical music, especially Chopin.

What does this article have to do with Isadora Duncan?? 24.158.8.227 (talk) 01:40, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

THIS ARTICLE IS NOT NEUTRAL. Jim16 21:04, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

 * This article is also extremely weak. Comme le Lapin 07:08, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Batman
All the information about her being cast in Batman and then having to withdraw is stated in interviews on the Batman DVDs by herself and Tim Burton. I dont know if there is a link available, but it is on the DVD. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.243.126.100 (talk • contribs)

Blade Runner
Why is her part in Blade Runner not mentioned amongst notable credits? It's been ages since Blade Runner moved from cult to classic. roger.duprat.denmark —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.243.126.100 (talk • contribs)

 * Well, her part IS mentioned, but I agree that it's rather glossed over. Frankly, since Blade Runner is 92nd in AFI's top 100, surely Sean Young's performance must receive some credit. My personal opinion, for what it's worth here, is that Young's performance in Blade Runner was nothing short of mesmerizing. I hold my breath during her entire presence on screen. I'm sorry that she's had life issues of one sort or another but someone who turns in that kind of performance can be forgiven a lot! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.66.109.87 (talk) 19:37, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes, she should have been forgiven a lot! She was a beautifully talented actor, and was essentially blacklisted for years. Her loss was also our loss. Her habit of speaking straightforwardly and honestly to directors and other powerful men (she rejected Harvey Weinstein in terms he's not likely to ever forget) probably is what branded her as "difficult." Younggoldchip (talk) 15:54, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

 * I have to agree whole heartedly. Her performance in Blade Runner was incredible and she stole the scenes she appeared in. Her role in Cousins was also worth notable mention. I also felt that the article painted her in a rather dim light, focused on the negative, and glossed over the roles that made her shine.Rww910 (talk) 21:04, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Tone of Article Flag
What is wrong with the tone of this article? I proposed removing the flag about the tone of this article. 165.189.169.190 (talk) 13:37, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I removed it. Pinkadelica (talk) 18:58, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

The tone of the article is condescending and judgmental toward Sean Young. The writer appears to be indulging some juvenile grudge against Young. This POV nonsense is inappropriate and unacceptable and should be corrected, according to Wikipedia standards. Younggoldchip (talk) 15:47, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Article quality
The article seems very POV too much so for my liking. It does not have enough praise and is too heavily focused on criticism. Emperor Leonidas (talk) 18:36, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I have removed the description of Young as 'better known for her bizarre antics' from the lead (together with a collection of links to gossip blogs) as a blatant violation of WP:BLP. Comments like that do not belong in an article on a living person at all, least of all in the lead section. Robofish (talk) 19:27, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I've also removed the 'controversy' heading, as neither of the events listed are really controversies - a controversy implies some sort of dispute between two sides. The text is still there, moved to other sections of the article. Robofish (talk) 19:34, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

The "polarizing public image" is also never explained Teledyn (talk) 22:42, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

'Sean'
If her name's 'Mary', then perhaps there should be a brief mention somewhere of when/why she adopted the name 'Sean', given also that it's predominantly a male forename. 78.149.235.48 (talk) 08:55, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Not much of a mystery, most actors adopt a stage name. Once you join the SAG you are required to treat your name as a trademark and it can not conflict with any previous SAG member's name; even that of an extra that became a SAG member just to get paid union rates. 96.57.9.142 (talk) 20:42, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

James Woods
Why is there no mention of the famous James Woods controversy in the Personal Life section? Smurfmeister (talk) 11:20, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Conspiracy Theorist
Ms Young is a enthusiastic Conspiracy Theorist with the now usual ideas about 'Ruling Families' and 'Possible Alien' rulers of the world. This seems a relevant point to make as her conspiratorial speculations influence her public comments. The source for this can be found in the Swedish Red Ice Radio interview and her Web Site. Ms Young commented about Blade Runner while on Red Ice Radio; 'Am sure Riddly Scott knows more than he is saying, in the Movie there are so many hidden symbols like the Owl and the Pyramid Tyrel lived in'.

DOB
Is there any particular reason for removing her DOB? Disembodied Soul (talk) 18:24, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

 * , WP:DOB says, in part, "Wikipedia includes full names and dates of birth that have been widely published by reliable sources, or by sources linked to the subject such that it may reasonably be inferred that the subject does not object to the details being made public." When a living person's date of birth is not accompanied by a citation to a published, reliable source, it should be removed because of privacy concerns. Eddie Blick (talk) 20:58, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

 * , I noticed that you are removing DOB from multiple biographies. Is there really a consensus for this? E.g., the Dave Gahan page has no reliable source for his DOB. With this reasoning, should not that information be removed? Disembodied Soul (talk) 22:47, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

 * , Biographies of living persons (of which WP:DOB is a part), says: "This page documents an English Wikipedia policy. It describes a widely accepted standard that all editors should normally follow." I don't see the need for seeking a consensus. With regard to Dave Gahan, I removed the unsourced date of birth after reading your mention of that page. Eddie Blick (talk) 01:24, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

Category:Compendium of postage stamp issuers

Category's purpose and scope
This is a philatelic sub-category intended to hold micro references of all known postage stamp issuers in terms of the issues they have implemented.

Issuers can be central organisations, such as the Post Office in Great Britain, which are appointed and regulated by the national government. Issuers have also taken the form of occupation forces; revolutionary regimes; agencies representing foreign post offices; international organisations; postal agencies appointed by individual cities, states (in the federal sense), territories, provinces or colonies; and even groups of countries with common issues under a combined postal administration.

Each "article" in this category is in fact a collection of entries about several issuers, presented in alphabetical order. The entries themselves are formulated on the micro model and so provide summary information.

Where possible, and where relevant, each micro entry includes the dates of issue; the capital city or town (if applicable); the currencies used in respect of all stamps issued; and linked references to other issuers that are part of the same group (if applicable) or have a related history. If the issuer was short-lived or had only a minor impact on postal history, the micro entry will also include a concise description. If the issuer has made a significant impact or has historical importance, it will be described in greater detail by a separate macro entry (i.e., a main article) elsewhere on the site. Macro entries may be pre-existing articles or they may be introduced in due course.

Eric Addo

Eric Pappoe Addo (born 12 November 1978) is a Ghanaian former professional footballer who played as a defender. After retiring, Addo worked as a coach at PSV.

Once heralded as a potential African great thanks to his combination of strength, pace and poise early on, Addo, a combative central defender who could also play as a defensive midfielder, had his budding career blighted by knee injuries.

Club Brugge
Born in the Ghanaian capital Accra, Addo began his European career brightly at Club Brugge in 1996 and over three seasons at the Jan Breydelstadion made 65 appearances, scoring five goals. At Brugges, he was viewed as a potential superstar on the European stage, after bursting into the first team ranks and helping them to win the Belgian Championship. He was voted the 1997–98 Young Belgian Footballer of the Year by Belgian journalists and Ghana Player of the Year the same season. He also won the Belgian Ebony Shoe award for being the best African player (or player with African roots) in the Belgian league. The jury was composed of the league clubs' coaches, the Belgium national team coach, sports journalists and an honorary jury.

PSV Eindhoven
Addo joined PSV Eindhoven during summer 1999 on a five-year contract, although he spent most of his first three years injured or as a substitute. He played just 24 times during this period, going out on loan at Roda JC for two years – before finally becoming a regular, as PSV retained their Eredivisie title in 2006. "I'm hoping now to show at Roda what I can do," Addo told Dutch magazine Voetbal International. "When I moved to PSV there was a lot of pressure and obviously it got worst when I was injured. They paid a lot of money for me. I still need to show the supporters what I am capable of and the move to Roda is the solution for me."

A 1–0 away loss at Anfield against Liverpool F.C. in the quarterfinal second leg of the 2006–07 UEFA Champions League was his last game for PSV in the competition. PSV lost 4–0 on aggregate to the 2005 UEFA Champions League winners, after losing 3–0 at home.

On 29 April 2007, Addo won his fifth Eredivisie Championship with PSV in 2006–07, with a 5–1 win on the final day home against Vitesse Arnhem. Pre-match, PSV, Ajax and AZ Alkmaar were tied on 72 points. PSV coach Ronald Koeman started Alex and Addo at the heart of defence in the decider.

Contract extension
On 3 April 2007, Addo told BBC Sport that "I will not extend my contract with PSV because things are not improving here for me. The African Cup of Nations is getting close and if I have to stay I should be guaranteed more playing time to be fit for the tournament in Ghana." He added, "The club understands my situation and they have agreed to allow me to leave at the end of the season."

On 22 April 2007, Addo was linked with a move to Galatasaray S.K. in the Dutch media. He was also linked with FC Twente, whose manager Fred Rutten knows Addo from his time at PSV. However, on 22 May 2007, Addo changed his mind and signed a new contract extension with PSV.

On 26 October 2007, Addo was charged with 'committing an act of gross unsporting conduct' and received a four match ban from UEFA for spitting at Fenerbahçe player Semih Şentürk during an ill-tempered Champions League match on 23 October. PSV later claimed that he was provoked by the striker who elbowed him moments before the incident occurred; this explanation was rejected by the association.

International career
Addo was given the chance to represent his adopted country, Belgium, in the 1998 FIFA World Cup, but instead opted to play for his homeland. However, after playing in the 1998 African Cup of Nations, he spent six years in the international wilderness.

He was a member of the Ghanaian squad at the 2006 FIFA World Cup finals, playing in all four of Ghana's games including the exit to Brazil in the second round. His last game for Ghana was against Mexico in an international friendly in London, UK on 26 March 2008.

Coaching career
After retiring and acquiring his UEFA Coaching license, Addo was appointed by PSV to serve as the assistant coach to their U-21 side.
