RE: LGAs and suburbs
That's okay. There isn't an alternative for suburbs, and I don't really think there needs be. Melbourne suburbs use an adjacency template which indicates neighbouring suburbs, but that's about it. We do have various city infoboxes, as can be seen in Adelaide and Canberra, but none have been adopted as standard, as with the US.

There can be some confusion between LGA's and suburbs when the posses the same common name. Where there is such an incident, the LGA's official name is used. At least, that's the case for New South Wales I think. For South Australian LGA's, we use the official name regardless. There also cases where the suburb or town article is also the article for the corresponding LGA. It's a shame that we do not have consistency or a stated convention for this yet. Perhaps this is something you might like to raise at the Australian Wikipedians' Notice Board.--Cyberjunkie | Talk 13:37, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

Well done...
... great work on Bankstown, New South Wales! It's great to see such diligent work being done. Would you be able to get any info on the history on Bankstown? You could use the article I worked on (Municipality of Strathfield) as an example if you'd like. There is also a failed FAC nomination at Featured article candidates/Municipality of Strathfield - hopefully you can learn from my mistakes :-) Ta bu shi da yu 02:30, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for the encouragement for my work on Bankstown. I haven't yet got any material on the history of Bankstown, but I am planning to work on it. Maybe a visit to the local library and a search around on the internet will do the trick. I've just been spending the morning taking snaps on Salt Pan Creek.

Your article on the (Municipality of Strathfield) is awesome. Looks like I have a lot of catching up to do ;-)

By the way, does your username mean "he is not a big fish" or is that just my imagination?

Newhoggy 05:30, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Yep. There's a k5 post somewhere that explains it. Alph a x τεχ 03:02, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Suburbs infobox
Hi Newhoggy. It seems I was wrong in saying there was no suburbs infobox. There is one, created at the beginning of August, in use in Macquarie, Australian Capital Territory. This isn't a parameterised template, however, and it seems to be used in that article only. If you intend to use it, you can find information from the ABS for each suburb quickly by searching "POA". However, you need to either pay ($10) for the information resulted from such a search, or access it as a university student or from some libraries. Alternatively, you might be able to find relevant information elsewhere on the ABS website, or by other means entirely. I might add that this infobox is not yet recommended by any of the Australian city WikiProjects (save maybe Canberra). --Cyberjunkie | Talk 13:09, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

Re: Syntax change?
Hi Newhoggy. Yes, that happened with mine as well. As I've been on Wikibreak I haven't been bothere to go find out what the issue is, but I narrowed the signature flaw to the "raw" function. Go to your preferences page, uncheck "raw signature", and replace your signature with Newhoggy | Talk (or whatever variant you like). Basically, you have to type it out in full.

Scott Ritter
Hi Newhoggy, howz things? I've been spending some time on the Scott Ritter page which looks very messay and poorly written and maybe some POV issues happenning there. Maybe if you have some time and inclination you might like to have a look and see what you think. Cheers. --Wm 05:49, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Hi Wm, I'm not familiar with Scott Ritter, but I'll have a look at it. Another thing is that the Bob Brown has been officially elected as as the Parliamentary Party Leader, which is quite different role compared to the Party Leader of other political parties.  The potential for confusion is unfortunate, but what can be done?  It is the first time the Australian Greens has formalised a leadership role within the party and the wiki pages will need to be updated to reflect that. Newhoggy | Talk 11:16, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Yes, but someone has already attended to this? My problem is that I a bit (read "very") unclear myself about how the role is defined compared to other parties. --Wm 16:51, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Heya
Hope things are going well with you, Newhoggy :-) Did you ever get a change to do that dump of all the good info you got into the Bankstown page? I can still help out, if you'd like. - Ta bu shi da yu 14:06, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

NSW electorates
Would you mind correcting the many stubs you've created? They all make it seem like the current member is the only one - could you please either make clear that this is not the case or add the past members, which are freely and easily available from the parliamentary record (downloadable from the NSW parliament website)? If not, this is going to be one hell of a cleanup job. Ambi 12:24, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Oh, hell, I'm doing it, though it's already taken me an hour or so, and is set to take at least another one to finish the job. On top of what I said above, you haven't even checked your dates - you've marked a whole bunch of members as being elected in 2003 when they were actually elected many years previously, and you haven't checked to see if the links actually point to the people you intend them to go to. I'm sure you mean well, but please be more careful in the future - on Wikipedia, it is possible to create a very big mess very quickly, and you've done exactly that. Ambi 12:56, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the polite response - the Bankstown edits are great. There's only a couple of things - generally, we go by the most common names, so we leave out the middle names in most cases, and if the person is more well known by a shortening of their name (i.e. Douglas Shedden --> Doug Shedden) we use the latter. If you've never heard of the person before, a Google search or a Factiva search (if you have access to the latter) can sometimes clarify this. The other thing, though it's really finicky, is that most of the other articles take the format of "year-year" rather than "year to year", but it really doesn't matter.

Re: NSW electoral districts
See my comment on the talk page. Also, in Electoral district of Bega, why isn't William Millard listed twice? Did he change party affiliations between elections? Alph a x τεχ 03:01, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

You're doing a great job with rolling out these member lists, but there's a couple of things you might want to watch. You've marked a couple of early 20th-century MPs as being from the Liberal Party of Australia, when they were actually from the Commonwealth Liberal Party (as they were active at different times it shouldn't be too hard to work out which was which). It's probably also a good idea to disambiguate Country Party to National Party of Australia so as not to point to a disambiguation page. Ambi 05:39, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

 * Please be careful about naming members. It's Wikipedia practice to use the names most commonly used by the person concerned, and you've reverted these in a few places. Sometimes this is patently wrong - as in Bligh - where you changed it back to names that the members concerned didn't actually use. Ambi 07:36, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

 * If you can't find it - though it's often possible to do so via Google or (if you have access) Factiva - then by all means just add the formal name. However, when I or someone else has gone to the trouble of actually checking what name the person goes or did go by, please do not change that back to the incorrect name. Ambi 08:52, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

I appreciate your work on creating articles on Australian politicians, especially that you've added "(Australian politician)" to some of them for disambiguation. I would suggest, though, that you also check what links to a page once you've created it, in order to avoid further ambiguity. See my comment on Talk:Henry Peters.

Image copyright problem with Image:Salt Pan Creek, beneath m5.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Salt Pan Creek, beneath m5.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. — Rebelguys2 talk 00:15, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

State MPs
I know you mean well, but it would really be helpful if you did some research before writing articles on MPs. "X was a member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly" doesn't really tell anyone anything they probably didn't already know, where just including the party and term in office would make the article vastly more useful. This has also made some articles incorrect - you'd marked Peter Primrose as a past politician, when he's a current member of the Legislative Council. Ambi 12:05, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm going to have to concur here. Each article tells me almost nothing, and without a date, I don't even know which term to look in.  Could you please include party and term, otherwise, they're useless and tell me nothing I couldn't get from a list entry. Night Gyr 06:14, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Hiya, I'm planning on adding those later. The "What links here" is still useful and I was planning on using that to enter in district and term.  Newhoggy | Talk 06:20, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

I noticed that you're adding lists of MPs to the talk pages of articles that already have them. What's that for? Rebecca 04:16, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Is there a specific reason that you have included the list of members at NSWLA electorates in the talk page rather than the article itself? (See, for example Electoral district of Upper Hunter). --Roisterer 13:01, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Those tables are incomplete, or unchecked. -- Newhoggy | Talk 22:39, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

The Hills electoral district
Does this district exist since the 2004 redistribution? --Garrie 03:39, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Use Common Names?
Hi On the now-defunct Electoral district of The Hills there is a table which refers to each of the following by common names: Max, Fred, Tony.

Member Party affiliation Period Maxwell Ruddock Lib. 1962-1976 Frederick Caterson Lib. 1976-1990 Anthony Packard Lib. 1990-1993

You have the above table on the talk page each with blue-linked articles. So in the main article I put in Maxwell Ruddock|Max Ruddock etc.

If you created each of the articles for max, fred, & tony, can you please confirm they are/were KNOWN BY their expanded names? To be honest I don't know which is correct for these people but the convention is to use common names and for a person to use the name Frederick is pretty rare these days.

I'm fed up with having to clean up the utter mess you've created. You've created literally thousands of completely useless substubs, most of which will never be expanded, and many of which are so useless that it would take quite a bit of research to find out which politician the article was meant to be referring to in the first place. Worse than that, you've now created many pointless substubs at names never used by those people (since you didn't even bother to do the most cursory of Google searches by unleashing this torrent of excrement), even when there was actually useful articles located at the names they actually went by. I've had to spent at least eight hours cleaning up this mess at various times over the last couple of months, and it's still nowhere near fixed. Frankly, it would be nice to have a bit of help from the person responsible. Rebecca 05:50, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Arthur Viney
Arthur Viney has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this person might not be notable enough for an article. Please review Notability (people) for the relevant guidelines. If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" template, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod template, the article will not be deleted, but if an editor is still not satisfied that it meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

A tag has been placed on LUGs in Australia, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template   to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. 220.227.179.4 07:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Catskill Game Farm

Catskill Game Farm Inc. was a family owned petting zoo in the town of Catskill, New York, United States, which operated from 1933 to 2006. The Game Farm closed permanently on Columbus Day October 9, 2006, after seventy-three years of operation.

The property was purchased by new owners in 2012 and the former giraffe barn has been developed into a hotel and opened in October 2019 following an extensive renovation of the existing building.

History: The Catskill Game Farm (1933-2006)
The Catskill Game Farm was opened in 1933 by Roland Lindemann and it was sold to his daughter Kathie Schulz in 1989. In August 2006, the Catskill Game Farm announced that it would be closing on October 9 that year, ending over 70 years of operation citing declining business. Business peaked in the 1960s. An auction was held in October 2006 to sell off equipment and animals. The auction was held over two days and it attracted over 1,000 potential bidders from US, Canada and Mexico.

At first, it held only deer, donkeys, and sheep. In 1958, the United States Department of Agriculture recognized Catskill Game Farm as a zoo, and it became the first privately owned venture to achieve such status. The collection was then allowed to grow more exotic, and at the time of its closing, it hosted roughly 2,000 animals representing over 150 species, imported from around the world.

The zoo spanned more than 914 acre, most of which was used to breed animals for other zoos worldwide. Only about 136 acre were available for public viewing, and then only in the summer and autumn.

April The Giraffe (Born 2002)
A giraffe named April was born in 2002 at the Catskill Game Farm.

Upon the closing of the Catskill Game Farm in October 2006, April was first sold to Adirondack Animal Land, in Vail Mills, New York; and then to Animal Adventure Park, in Harpursville, New York, in 2015, where she resided until her death on April 2, 2021.

April became known internationally when a live video of the late stages of her pregnancy, along with her birth, were published on the Internet in 2017.

Redevelopment
Ben and Cathy Ballone purchased the former Catskill Game Farm property in 2012. They established The Old Game Farm. They have been working to reopen the site as a family-oriented establishment once again, with the addition of a B&B, campground, and RV resort with animals. The new owners have developed the former giraffe barn into a hotel. It was the home of several generations and families of giraffes, including April which was born there in 2002. The Inn opened on Tuesday, October 1, 2019, following an extensive renovation of the existing building. The inn features five guest rooms and four campsites. An exhibit of memorabilia highlighting the history of the former Catskill Game Farm is displayed at the inn.

She took great interest in the Scottish Horse, a military regiment raised by her son Lord Tullibardine for service in South Africa during the Second Boer War (1899-1902), and one of her latest public events was to assist in the equipment of a reinforcement company for the regiment in early 1902.

Harringay Arena

Harringay Arena was a sporting and events venue on Green Lanes in Harringay, North London, England. Built in 1936, it lasted as a venue until 1958.

Construction
Harringay Arena was built and owned by Brigadier-General Alfred Critchley under the auspices of his private company, the Greyhound Racing Association Trust Ltd (GRA). A new company, Harringay Arena Limited, whose directors were also directors of the GRA, was incorporated in 1936 to build and manage the venue. The company raised funds for the venture via a stock and share issue in January 1936.

Designed by Dr. Oscar Faber, the arena was a stark modernist octagonal-shaped building which borrowed heavily from Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. It was erected adjacent to the Harringay Stadium in just eight months between February and October 1936. Its vast steel roof was constructed by Dorman Long & Co, who had recently been responsible for the Sydney Harbour Bridge and completed the new Wembley Stadium in 2007.

It had a seating capacity of almost 10,000 for ice hockey and slightly more for boxing. The actual arena was 198 ft long by 88 ft wide. A removable maple floor could be laid over the ice for non-sporting events. This arrangement clearly proved troublesome. At an event shortly after its opening the Daily Herald reported that "claims that Harringay had solved its cold-feet problem were not quite substantiated. Cold air from the ice below the boards filtered through".

Sports venue
Specifically designed as an ice hockey venue, it quickly became famous as a venue for both ice hockey and boxing.

Up to the Second World War, ice hockey enjoyed its most popular era in the UK until a revival in the 1990s. Two local teams were formed for the Arena's opening, Harringay Racers and Harringay Greyhounds. On 26 October 1938, the first ice hockey game to be televised anywhere in the world was played at Harringay between the Racers and Streatham. A year later, WWII started and ice hockey matches were suspended. This interruption proved very damaging to the sport's popularity and post-war audiences remained thin for the remainder of the Arena's life.

Boxing became firmly established at the Arena prior to the war. On 7 April 1938 Harringay was the venue for the first boxing match to be televised live when the full 15 rounds between Len Harvey v Jock McAvoy were broadcast. Following the war Harringay was a very successful boxing venue. During its 22-year life, it was home to five world title fights, a record for any British venue by the time the Arena ceased operating as a venue in 1958.

However famous the Arena became for boxing, commercial necessity led to a diversification into a wider range of events including:

 * The basketball and wrestling events for the 1948 Summer Olympics.
 * All England Open Badminton Championships from 1947 to 1949.
 * Home of the Horse of the Year Show for its first ten years, from 1949 to 1958. In its final year at Harringay, the show featured in the first broadcast of the BBC's new Saturday afternoon sports programme Grandstand.
 * Roller Speedway from 1939 until 1952, with a break during the War. In 1953, with the demise of roller speedway, the Arena hosted a Roller Derby match.
 * Wrestling.
 * Five-a-side football.
 * Basketball.
 * European Netball Championships from 1955.

Entertainment venue
The Arena's diversification went beyond sports and included a variety of entertainment events including:

Classical music and ballet
In the 1940s the arena hosted ground breaking classical music events popularising classical music for the first time including the London Music Festival in 1947 and 1948. The '48 festival included the hugely popular London debut of Pierino Gamba. 10,000 people watched this ten-year-old boy conduct the Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra playing Beethoven and Dvořák. The festival also featured the world-famous Manuel Rosenthal, who brought his Orchestre National de France to join Sir Thomas Beecham and the Royal Philharmonic in a concert that filled the Harringay Arena with 13,500 listeners

A report in The Guardian on a classical music event in June of the following year said:

"Harringay Arena as a concert Hall is staggering. The finicky hate it. That is an initial point in its favour. For those whose hearts are liberal and Whitmanesque, the current London Music Festival is moving as well as mammoth. Never before have I seen a multitude lie so quiescently in the hollow of a composer's hand. The Albert Hall is a restless and limited thing by comparison."

"I passed turnstiles, barking stewards, ice-cream hawkers and bars stacked with sixpenny slices of pie. These are the things which make the finicky rear and paw ... At the end of the first movement 9,000 pairs of hands clapped uncontrollably. This was the only indiscretion of an intent and almost coughless evening."

"Occasionally a locomotive on the nearby line to Southend hissed uncritically or improved the orchestration with a hoot."

"Where did the thousands come from? I have never seen their like in any concert hall before. There was so little dimness among the elderly. There were so few corduroys, beards and bandanna headsquares among the young. These Harringaieties are, take them all in all, quite a phenomenon. Some sociologist should put them under his spy-glass."

Classical music events also figured large in the 1949 calendar.

In April, Paul Robeson appeared at Harringay as part of his European concert tour. Sell-out audiences, including one of 10,000 at the arena, led him to describe the tour as "the most successful concert tour of my career"

In June, there was a short season of classical music events including a two-week stay by the Philadelphia Orchestra. The event was part of their hyped European tour. They were the first American orchestra to visit the UK since 1929. Financed by British theatrical impresario Harold Fielding, the tour was a critical success, but high ticket prices kept the post-war audiences away.

From 27 August to 1 September, along with Empress Hall, Earl's Court, Harringay Arena was the venue for a series of five gala performances by Alicia Markova, Anton Dolin and the Ballet Rambert. The success of these performances led to the formation of the English National Ballet.

Circuses
The arena was well known as a venue for circuses. It was home to Tom Arnold's annual Harringay Circus for eleven seasons from Christmas 1947 to Christmas 1957. For the first circus show in 1947 Arnold hired twenty baby elephants specially imported from Ceylon by the Chipperfield family. They arrived at the George V Dock in London's Docklands in October 1947 on SS Arbratus.

Billy Smart occasionally appeared in these shows. At one of the Mammoth Christmas Circuses, he spray-painted five of his elephants white, yellow, blue, cream and pink.

The 1952 circus included an elephant act with Sabu, the young Indian actor made famous by his appearance in films such as The Thief of Baghdad.

The resident band for the circuses was led by Charles Shadwell; the signature tune "Down with the Curtain" always introduced the proceedings.

The arena also hosted a number of other circus shows. In 1956 the Moscow State Circus came to Harringay, the first occasion on which a state circus from the Soviet Union had visited Western Europe. Other events included a handful of western cowboy shows in the 1950s, including the 1952 Texas Western Spectacle, starring the famous cowboy singer/actor Tex Ritter.

Other events

 * There were ice skating shows including the huge production of Rose Marie on Ice in July 1950 starring the 1948 Olympic Champion Barbara Ann Scott. The Arena was also open as an ice skating venue for the public.
 * Harringay was the venue for the first National Colliery Music Festival in 1948. The festival included eight brass bands, three pipe bands and nine male voice choirs, all from collieries around the UK. There were also displays of clog dancing and sword dancing by colliery groups. The finale was a performance by a 700-strong choir accompanied by a massed brass band and conducted by Sir Adrian Boult.
 * American evangelist Billy Graham held his first 'Crusade' in the UK at the Arena from 1 March – 12 May 1954. Audiences could hear Graham event Sunday during the three-month crusade. It was the first of 23 'crusades' and 'missions' that he held in the UK between 1954 and 1991. His visit was started off with a gala event at the stadium which included a visit by Roy Rogers and his famous horse Trigger.
 * The Daily Worker used Harringay as a venue for its rallies in 1954 and 1950.
 * The Ford Motor Company used the venue to launch the 1957 range of Ford cars namely the Consul, Zephyr and Zodiac.
 * In the early summer of 1958, a music event was held at the Arena when people flocked to see the top artists of the day including Vera Lynn, James Kenny, Matt Monro, Petula Clark, Dennis Lotis, Marion Ryan and Laurie London. The concert was called the Starlight Dance and it has been referred to as the start of what is thought of today as the full-scale arena concert.
 * In April 1949, Paul Robeson gave a short series of concerts at the Arena. He returned the following year to sing at the 20th Daily Worker rally.

Decline and fall
Despite running an impressive and broad ranging calendar of events from 1947 to 1958, the change in the fortunes of ice hockey in the UK and the straitened post-war circumstances meant limited commercial success for the Arena after the Second World War. The arena hosted its final event on Tuesday, 28 October 1958. It was a sentimental occasion and promoter Jack Solomons headlined with a world-class lightweight fight between Dave Charnley and Carlos Ortiz (who was to go on to become world champion). The Times quoted part of the speech at that event in its paper the following day: "After 22 years Harringay Arena is closing. This evening we shall hear this great hall echo to cheers and see cigarette smoke swirl around the ring for the last time. The most important chapter in the history of British professional boxing is over."

Behind the scenes moves for the Arena's disposal had been going on for some time. International food retailer and manufacturer, Home & Colonial Stores Ltd were offered the site in 1957. They took possession of the building and the adjacent market hall in 1958. Works to convert the Arena to its new use were complete by February 1960. It was henceforth put to use as a food storage facility for the next 20 years until its demolition in 1978.

Through the early 1980s an open air Sunday market was held on the site up until the site was developed for shopping. The initial development included principally warehouse style shopping including DIY, bathroom and food wholesale outlets. A Royal Mail sorting facility was also built which survived the later redevelopment.

Early in the 21st century the whole site was redeveloped for retail shopping as the Arena Shopping Park, hosting mid-market brands such as Next, Carphone Warehouse, Homebase and a Fitness First gym.

Podcaching
This is certainly a "neo" neologism - coined less than two months ago. The term may cache on (sorry for the pun) but right now is has 287 hits on Google, many either Wikipedia mirrors or repeats of the blog that coined the term. It makes sense as a neologism, it's just a question of whether Wikipedia should be used to popularize a new term. -- DS1953 12:57, August 23, 2005 (UTC)

Techint

Techint is an Italian-Argentine conglomerate founded in Milan in 1945 by Italian industrialist Agostino Rocca and headquartered in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Milan (Italy). As of 2019 the Techint Group is composed of six main companies in the following areas of business: engineering, construction, steel, mining, oil & gas, industrial plants, healthcare. Techint, with its subsidiaries, is the largest steel making company in Argentina.

Techint claims to be the world's largest manufacturer of seamless steel tubes, mainly used in the oil industry. As of 2013, the Techint Group had a workforce of 51,200 permanent employees.

Techint operates with two main entities: Techint S.A., based in Buenos Aires, and Techint - Compagnia Tecnica Internazionale S.p.A., based in Milan

History
Agostino Rocca, an executive at Ansaldo and later at Dalmine and SIAC (steel and iron industries) founded Compagnia Tecnica Internazionale (Italian for "Technical International Company") in Milan in September 1945, but developed its main activity worldwide. The original company name was changed after to Techint, its abbreviated telex code.

The company began providing engineering services to a growing number of clients in Latin America -to where Agostino Rocca had traveled after World War II- and Europe. Construction activities soon followed: the first major Techint Engineering and Construction (E&C) project was a network of large diameter pipelines in Argentina and Brazil.

Awarded a contract to build a 1,600 km (1,000 mi) gas pipeline from Comodoro Rivadavia to Buenos Aires in 1949 by President Juan Perón, Techint became a leading government contractor during Perón's ambitious infrastructure program in Argentina. Creating subsidiaries in Brazil (1947), Chile (1951), and Mexico (1954), the company opened its first seamless steel tube plant in Campana, in 1954; in 1969, Techint's Ensenada plant became the only Argentine manufacturer of cold rolled steel.

In the 1980s important projects were undertaken in Argentina, Brazil, Ecuador and Mexico, and the company diversified into new fields of activity, building the first nuclear facilities and offshore platforms.

In the early 1990s Techint purchased a stake in Argentina's then-leading steel manufacturer, the state-owned SOMISA. A significant part of Techint's core manufacturing strength has since been concentrated in the San Nicolás-Villa Constitución oil-and-steel corridor, where the company is involved in the production of cold rolled steel. In those years, the Techint Group invested in oil and gas blocks in Argentina through exploration and production company Tecpetrol.

In Italy, the Techint Group entered the health services sector by building and managing Istituto Clinico Humanitas (ICH), a hospital and medical research institute near Milan.

Tenaris, the company under which all the manufacturing and service activities in the steel pipe business are grouped today, went public at the end of 2002, quoted on the Buenos Aires, Mexico City and Milan stock exchanges; its American depositary receipts are listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

On August 23, 2005, the Techint group bought 99.3% of Mexican Hylsamex for US $2.2 billion. In press release, Techint stated that the Mexican steel manufacturer, and its previous steel manufacturers Siderar (Argentina) and Sidor (Venezuela) would be under a new subsidiary called Ternium, headquartered in Luxembourg.

On April 30, 2007, Ternium took control of Grupo IMSA, a major player in the Mexican steel industry.

Venezuela nationalized Sidor in 2008, following a series of industrial disputes over the previous year. Compensation of around US$1.97 billion was agreed for the nationalisation of Ternium's 60% stake in Sidor, with the former keeping a 10% stake in the company, but frictions emerged with the Kirchner administration in Argentina over their reported refusal to raise objections to the nationalization with President Chávez.

In 2016 the Techint Group entered the mining industry through the Tenova's acquisition of several companies operating in this field.

Divisions

 * Tenaris: A global supplier of tubular products and services used in drilling, completion and production of oil and gas, in process and power plants, and in specialized industrial and automotive applications. Companies owned by the Techint group through Tenaris include: Dalmine (Italy), Siderca, and Siat (Argentina), Confab (Brazil), Tamsa (Mexico), Algoma (Canada), Silcotub (Romania). and has production facilities in the US and a joint venture with NKK (Japan), holding 51% of NKK shares since 1999, making it the first Japanese steel company in foreign majority ownership.  Its total steel tube shipments exceeded 4.5 million tons in 2008.
 * Ternium: A Latin American supplier of flat and long steel products, produced in three integrated steel mills located in Argentina, Mexico, USA and Guatemala with an overall capacity of nearly 9 million tons per year.
 * Techint Engineering & Construction: A group of companies rooted in Italy and Latin American countries, as well as the Middle East, Asia and Africa, specialized in the design and construction of pipelines, oil and gas facilities, petrochemical plants, power plants and transmission lines, mining and metal complexes, and other infrastructure and civil projects.
 * Tenova: Tenova's subsidiaries operate in five continents supplying direct reduction plants, submerged arc furnaces, cold rolling mills, strip processing lines, roll grinders, automated roll shops, engineering and EPCM services, mining and bulk handling systems (see: Tenova Takraf), minerals processing and modular plants, solid/liquid separation solutions, furnaces and smelting plants.
 * Tecpetrol: Active in oil and gas exploration and production in several Latin American countries and the United States.
 * Humanitas: runs some health care institutions.

Gibb River Road

The Gibb River Road is a road in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.

Description
The road is a former cattle route that stretches in an east–west direction almost 660 km through the Kimberley between the towns of Derby and the Kununurra and Wyndham junction of the Great Northern Highway. Like its namesake river, which does not actually cross the road but runs nearby at -16.1018°N, 126.51792°W, it is named after geologist and explorer Andrew Gibb Maitland. The Gibb River Road is one of the two major roads which dissect the Kimberley region—the other being the extreme northern section of Great Northern Highway which runs further to the south.

The road is often closed due to flooding during the wet season, which is typically November through March, although delayed openings have been known to happen, frustrating the tourism industry as well as locals who rely on the road. Since the mid-2000s, the road has been upgraded to a formed gravel two-lane road including a few short bitumenised sections, but 4WD vehicles are still recommended due to the water crossings and numerous heavily corrugated sections. The Gibb River Road has scenic views of geological formations and natural scenery, Aboriginal and pastoral history, as well as rare and unique fauna and flora. Attractions along the road include Windjana Gorge National Park, Tunnel Creek National Park, Adcock Gorge, Manning Gorge, Galvans Gorge, Lennard Gorge, Bell Gorge, and Wunaamin Miliwundi Ranges. Accommodation is offered by several cattle stations in the area including Mount Hart Wilderness Lodge, Mount Barnett Station, Mount Elizabeth Station, Drysdale River Station, the El Questro Station, Ellenbrae and Charnley River Station.

History
From 1948, an Air Beef Scheme operated between Glenroy Station and Wyndham. An abattoir, freezing works, and airstrip were built on the station and the meat airfreighted twice a day to the coast before being shipped to the southern cities. To develop the beef industry further, a Commonwealth Government grant to build a road was given in 1949 and the following year construction of a road to Derby commenced, one of a number of roads built as part of the so-called "Beef Roads Scheme". This southern section, which is sometimes referred to as the Derby-Gibb River Road, was completed in 1956 at a cost of £713,677 and was used for trucking live cattle.

The northern section of the road was under the control of the Shire of Wyndham–East Kimberley until 1996 when Main Roads Western Australia took over control and upgraded the full length of the highway.

Native title
A joint native title claim, known as the Dambimangari claim and covering a large area of the Kimberley, was lodged in 1998 by the Wanjina-Wunggurr (Native Title) Aboriginal Corporation RNTBC on behalf of three peoples, the Worrorra of Dambimangari, the Wunambal Gaambera of Uunguu, and the Ngarinyin of Wilinggin. The Wilinggin portion of the claim, covering an area of more than 60,150 km2 along the Gibb River Road, was the first of the three to be determined for the Ngarinyin people, by litigation on 27 August 2004.

Paal Nilssen-Love

Paal Nilssen-Love (born 24 December 1974) is a Norwegian drummer and composer in the jazz, free jazz and free improvisation genres.

Early life
Nilssen-Love was born in Molde, Norway. His parents ran a jazz club in Stavanger, and he learned to play drums on the kit owned by his father. As a teenager, he played with free-jazz reedsman Frode Gjerstad, which was the start of a long musical relationship. He did musical studies at Sund folkehøgskole 1993-94. In 1994, during studies on the Jazz program at the Trondheim Musikkonservatorium (1994–96), he formed the band Element which musically became a platform for several other groups with bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten and pianist Håvard Wiik and led to collaborations with Iain Ballamy and Chris Potter. Nilssen-Love also did a little composing in the mid-1990s.

Later life and career
Relocating to Oslo in 1996, Nilssen-Love took part in the forming of bands such as Håkon Kornstad Trio, The Quintet and Frode Gjerstad Trio, as well as self-initiated projects. In 1999, Nilssen-Love played his first solo concert.

Continuing, "by the early 2000s, Nilssen-Love had launched an international career, playing alongside Swedish saxophonist Mats Gustafsson and American reed player Ken Vandermark, among others." He has worked with his trio Vandermark and Ab Baars, the bands Large Unit (a big band, with about 14 members, which he has led and composed for since 2013), School Days, The Thing, Scorch Trio, Territory Band, FME, and various duo projects such as with reedmen Peter Brötzmann and Vandermark guitarist Terrie Hessels (The Ex), saxophonist John Butcher, organist Nils Henrik Asheim, and noise experimentalist Lasse Marhaug.

In 2014, Nilssen-Love decided to leave the band Atomic to concentrate on Large Unit and projects involving more improvising.

Comment
Shouldn't it be Co-created?

Career section out of order
I don't know anything about this guy so I can't make it right, but the career section starts out saying "After the Larry Sanders Show ended..." without ever mentioning the show earlier. Theres a paragraph on the Larry Sanders Show later, maybe that should be the first paragraph or something. wisecheesedoodlehead (talk) 17:12, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Subway-surface lines
Hey, I love this template and thanks for adding it! But surely the subway-surface lines belong on here as well? I'd add them, but I'm not sure what "division" they're in. --Jfruh 13:05, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

SEPTA R4
This template deals with the SEPTA Regional Rail lines in their present form. The R4 line was proposed as a local service from Bryn Mawr but never implemented. That's why the R4 should not be in the template. Pilatus 13:46, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Actually the history is much more complicated - SEPTA Regional Rail describes it in detail. There's no reason to restrict the template to the present form. --SPUI (talk) 07:55, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

 * We don't have defunct lines (such as the trackless trolleys) in the template, so there is no reason to have lines that never existed in the template. Pilatus 00:42, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

 * If someone writes an article on the trackless trolley routes, they shoudl be added to the template. --SPUI (talk) 06:09, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

 * If someone gets around to write about the R4 the link can go back in. Pilatus 23:58, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Removed the R4 link. If someone writes about the proposed R4 service (if I remember correctly, it was a Bryn Mawr-Fox Chase local) then the link should be added back. Izzycat 22:08, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Girard St.?
Should the Girard_Street_line be on this template? --Jfruh 06:29, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Probley, have to figure out how i am going to work it in. --Boothy443 | trácht ar 07:24, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I can't wait to see what you guys are going to do with Routes 23 and 56 are revived as trolley lines. DanTD (talk) 16:17, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Fern Rock, anyone?
So why isn't Fern Rock Transportation Center included in this template? And about the R4, I found a message board containing some useful info in case any body's interested. DanTD (talk) 03:07, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Revising & updating
I've been unable to find any other templates that use the same format as this one, where active lines & route are completely separated from the inactive ones, rather than in appropriate subsections. Also, there's quite a number of relevant links that were omitted. AlgaeGraphix (talk) 21:04, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Well, puts all the former services in one place, regardless of geography (the relevant factor when dividing up those services). It's true that  groups current and former services together (within modal type). Mackensen (talk) 22:35, 25 December 2019 (UTC)

Distinction between City Bus Routes and Former Trolley Routes
Just so theres a marker between the two, I would like to suggest that any cuts past 1970 be put in 'Former Trolley' and anything before, including the 1955 cuts, be put in 'City Bus' Jspace727 (talk) 17:12, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Move
I've fleshed this out and rewritten it quite a bit, and checked some facts (according the the Scottish Office, the SQA was formed in September 1997; since this was a merger between the SEB and other bodies, we can assume that it also replaced the SEB at this time). The dates for the phasing out of the CSYS were taken from the SQA itself.

I'd like to know when the CSYS was introduced.

Finally, as CSYS is the acronym, and not used exclusively (the full name was still reasonably well-known), I think it would be more in line with Wikipedia policy to have this article under the title '[Certificate of Sixth Year Studies]'. CSYS should redirect.
