Hi MikeGallagher, welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you created the Soccer-Europe template, and put it in the "Any-purpose" section of WP:ICT. In the edit historyfor the template, you wrote the the website has granted permission to Wikipedia to use its photos. However, I could not find any such copyright notice on the website, only this:
 * © 1998-2005 soccer-europe.com. These images may not be used without written permission of the  webmaster

Could you provide a link to the notice granting permission to Wikipedia and/or place the text of the notice into the template itself? Also, did the webmaster allow commercial use of images, or did he/she grant permission just to Wikipedia? This is important, as non-commercial-use-only images are no longer allowed on Wikipedia. — EagleOne\Talk 22:00, July 29, 2005 (UTC)

 * copied from User_talk:EagleOne:
 * G'day, EagleOne, thanks for the message. I'm still very new at this, so I'd appreciate any advice.

 * I emailed the webmaster specifically to ask permission for WikiPedia, and it was granted-with-credit in his reply (that's why it won't be found on the website!). I don't know whether the site-owner would have said "okay" if I'd asked for them for commercial use, but I can ask.

 * But while I'm leaving messages, I have a question. I've used SocEur templates for Christian Vieri and Radhi Jaidi. When I finished uploading the first image (C Vieri) I emailed the soccer-europe owner to ask him if he considered that sufficient. As you can see if you visit the Vieri entry, he did not, and he added a copyright notice to the caption. I don't know if copyright notices in captions is permissable on WikiPedia.

 * If so, (and if it isn't a non-commercial licence), I'll add a note to the template telling people using the images to put a copyright notice in the caption as well. If not, I'll have to delete the images that're there.

 * Cheers, --MarkGallagher 01:36, 30 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Ok, I see. Generally we do not allow images by permission only, as those tend to have restrictions on commercial use. In keeping with the "free encyclopedia" theme, the higher-ups recently anounced a ban on non-commercial use images; if these images turn out to be non-comm-use, then we'll have to delete them and find free alternatives.
 * Yes, copyright notices are acceptable in photo captions. It is all about how you interpret the "with atrribution" part of the license; some require a notice just on the image description page, other require a notice with every use (that is, whenever the pic is used in an article). If you intend to upload many more images from this site, then I suggest modifying the template to include a copyright notice, a la "Image copyright (©) http://soccer-europe.com/".
 * While we're on the subject of modifying templates, may I suggest that you put a link to the license in the template itself? You could put the text on your user_talk page (or a subpage). Just make sure to get the webmaster's permission to post the email online before you do so; he/she may not want to have their personal correspondence available for everyone to see!
 * Happy editing, — EagleOne\Talk 17:01, August 1, 2005 (UTC)

Hi Mark

I like what you've done on the article, and I'll take it off my to do list. I'd never have got round to it anyway :-)

You picked a bad time to ask about the image - my first featured article candidate (Denis Law) got rejected yesterday because an image wasn't properly tagged, so I'm not the best person to ask. Nobody usually cares - it's only likely to come up if you put the article onto peer review or FAC. But if you want to do it all properly, you can have a look at Fair use, WikiProject Fair use and the description pages for the images of Sunset Boulevard, which one of the more anal strict opponents to many fair use images cites as a good example of how to use them.

And seeing as you're collecting welcome messages, have another one. CTOAGN 20:24, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

Soccer-europe images
Hi, sorry for marking Image:JensLehmannEPL.jpg as a copyvio, I have now reverted it back. It was in good faith, though, the images do not make it clear that permission has been explictly given. Could you please make it a little more obvious? At the very least, there should be a link in the template to the full text of the email from the webmaster of the site (or a message on his site saying WP has permission, if it ever appears) licensing the work.

Why do you delete my entries?
You are quick to delete some very important info about Barbara Schwarz. Why? Lily Firered 22:31, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

Barbara Schwarz
So, I didn't see any discussion on the talk page why the usenet kook award was removed. It's the only reason I had any clue who this person was, and it's cited on pages of some of the other more notable recipients. Your edit summary removing it was ... a little vague. Care to fill me in on why this text isn't appropriate? --24.165.233.150 23:23, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

Barbara Schwarz article fuddlemark reverted my edit
I reverted your edit because it was a) redundant, and b) unencyclopædic. For 'a', Ms Schwarz's still being a Scientologist is covered in the opening paragraph, so you don't need to create a new section just to say "she's a Scientologist". As for 'b', section headings like "What Scientology doesn't want you to know" are contrary to Neutral point of view and entirely the wrong tone to use for an encyclopædia.

Does that make sense? --fuddlemark (talk) 22:43, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

 * No, fuddlemark, not so much. Because you see, a) it is covered once in the opening paragraph that she considers herself being a scientologist. And then it is covered three times, that she is not a scientologist: "kicked out", "not a member", "no longer active" - three times it says the very same thing yet in contradiction to the before said fact, that she is a scientologist. b) That is a pity, that headings like "What Scientology does not want you to know" are the wrong tone for wikipedia. I wonder only because a content like that: "According to Schwarz, these events were the result of a conspiracy by a group called the 'Still Existing German Nazi Psychiatrists Mindcontroller Secret Service' (SEGNPMSS)." is the right tone. ??? Explain this to me, please. Lily Firered 14:25, 6 September 2005 (UTC)

Indonesia-bio-stub
Hi - We at WikiProject Stub sorting note you've recently created a new stub category. Did you realise that stub categories should normally be cleared by WikiProject Stub sorting before creation? That way they can be vetted to check that there are a viable number of stubs (at least 60-100) and that the category does not cross the existing stub hierarchy before the stub is created.

If you can provide any information on why the stub was created, please add a note to entry for the stub at WikiProject Stub sorting/Discoveries giving the reason for it. In addition, if there is any Wikiproject associated with the stub add that information. Thanks. Be aware, however, that if the stub category does not soon reach a viable level of activity, it is likely to be nominated for deletion at WP:SFD.

In the case of Indonesia-bio-stub, the stub type is probably a viable one, and does fit in with the current stub hierarchy, but it should still have gone through the proper proposal process before creation. Grutness...  wha?  07:01, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Hi again Mark - there shouldn't be any problem with indonesia-bio-stub - as you say, it makes perfect sense as a category and should be well used. The real reason the rule is put in place is to stop people going "oo! lots of countries have stubs, but Liechtenstein doesn't - I'll make one!", leaving us with large numbers of stub types that will never get more than two or three articles. Or adding stub types that cut right across the system we're using to classify articles. Also, since we do most of the stub sorting, we need to keep track of what categories there are - it's no good having a stub category that stub sorters don't know to use. Sorry to come on like "The Stub Police"! In future, though, if you want to make any stub types, we'd like to know about it beforehand. Cheers from across the Tasman. Grutness...  wha?  00:26, 10 September 2005 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you Mark for those wiki policy links, I will read them before I do any new editing.

There has been a rather overt Leftwing bias in many of the Australian politics bio pages, for certain hate-figures of the Left such as prominent Liberal politicians. Non-Leftwing readers have been discovering this bias on Wiki, and wish to address it for the sake of objectivity.

PS: (Is this how to send a comment like the one I saw from you when I logged onto wiki? Is there anyway of sending a private message, or does everyone get to see everything?)

Reversion of Guy Fawkes article
Hi Mark. I noticed that you reverted the Guy Fawkes article a few hours ago, removing a line recently added by a vandal, but also removing a substantial collection of information added by an anonoymous user. I was wondering if the removal of the anonymous user's information was intentional, or just an accident. Did you think the information was incorrect or unsuitable for some reason? I realise that it wasn't written particularly well, but I was thinking of going through and refactoring it in the next few days. Izogi 23:01, 16 September 2005 (UTC)

Ibn Duraid

Abū Bakr Muhammad ibn al-Ḥasan ibn Duraid al-Azdī al-Baṣrī ad-Dawsī Al-Zahrani (أبو بكر محمد بن الحسن بن دريد بن عتاهية الأزدي البصري الدوسي الزهراني), or Ibn Duraid (إبن دريد) (c. 837-933 CE), a leading grammarian of Baṣrah, was described as "the most accomplished scholar, ablest philologer and first poet of the age", was from Baṣra in the Abbasid era. Ibn Duraid is best known today as the lexicographer of the influential dictionary, the Jamharat al-Lugha (جمهرة اللغة). The fame of this comprehensive dictionary of the Arabic language is second only to its predecessor, the Kitab al-'Ayn of al-Farahidi.

Life
Ibn Duraid was born in Baṣrah, on "Sālih Street", (233H / c. 837CE) in the reign of the Abbasid caliph Al-Mu'tasim;    Among his teachers were Abū Hātim as-Sijistāni, ar-Riāshi (Abū al-Faḍl al-'Abbās ibn al-Faraj al-Riyāshī)), Abd ar-Rahmān Ibn Abd Allah, surnamed nephew of al-Asmāi (Ibn Akhī’l Asmāi), Abū Othmān Saīd Ibn Hārūn al-Ushnāndāni, author of Kitāb al-Maāni, al-Tawwazī, and al-Ziyādi.  He quoted from the book  (Gestures of Friendship of the Nobles)  written by his paternal uncle al-Ḥasan ibn Muḥammad. Ibn Duraid himself identified with the Qahtanite Arabs, the larger confederacy of which Azd is a sub-group. Ibn Khallikān in his biographical dictionary gives his full name as:
 * Abū Bakr M. b. al-Hasan b. Duraid b. Atāhiya b. Hantam b. Hasan b. Hamāmi b. Jarw Wāsī b. Wahb b. Salama b. Hādir b. Asad b. Adi b. Amr b. Mālik b. Fahm b. Ghānim b. Daus b. Udthān b. Abd Allāh b. Zahrān b. Kaab b. al-Hārith b. Kaab b. Abd Allāh b. Mālik b. Nasr b. al-Azd b. al-Gauth b. Nabt b. Mālik b. Zaid b. Kahlān b. Saba b. Yashjub b. Yārub b. Kahtān, of the Azd tribe, native of Baṣrah.

Ibn al-Nadim writing two centuries earlier gives a slightly curtailed genealogy with some variation:
 * Abū Bakr Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥasan ibn Durayd bin ‘Atāhiyah ibn Ḥantam ibn Ḥasan, son of Ḥamāmī, whose name came from a village in the region of ‘Umān called Ḥamāmā and who was the son of Jarw ibn Wāsi‘ ibn Wahb bin Salamah ibn Jusham ibn Ḥādir ibn Asad bin ‘Adī ibn ‘Amr ibn Mālik ibn Naṣr ibn Azd ibn al-Ghawth.

When Basra was attacked by the Zanj and Ar-Riāshī murdered in 871 he fled to Oman, then ruled by Muhallabi. He is said to have practiced as a physician although no works on medical science by him are known to survive. After twelve years Khallikan says he returned to Basra for a time and then moved to Persia In Al-Nadim's account he moved to Jazīrat Ibn ‘Umārah (this may refer to the Baṣra suburb) before he moved to Persia where he was under the protection of the governor Abd-Allah Mikali and his sons, and where he wrote his chief works. Abd-Allah appointed him director of the government office for Fars Province and it is said while there each time his salary was paid he donated almost it all to the poor. In 920 he moved to Baghdad, and received a monthly pension of fifty dinars from the caliph Al-Muqtadir in support of his literary activities which continued to his death. In Baghdad he became an acquaintance of Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari.

Illness and Death
Ibn Khallikan reports many tales of Ibn Duraid's fondness of wine and alcohol so when towards the age of ninety Ibn Duraid suffered partial paralysis following a stroke, he managed to cure himself by drinking theriac, he resumed his old habits and continued to teach. However the palsy returned the next year much more severe so he could only move his hands. He would cry out in pain when anyone entered his room. His student Abū Alī Isma’il al-Kāli al-Baghdādi remarked: The Almighty has punished him for saying in his Maksūraī:
 * “Oh Time! You have met someone who, were the heavenly spheres to fall upon him, would not utter complaint.”

He remained paralysed and in pain for two more years, although his mind remained sharp and he answered, as quick as thought, questions from students on points of philology. To one such, Abū Hātim, he responded:
 * Had the light of my eyes been extinguished, you would not have found one as able to quench your thirst for knowledge.”

His last words were in reply to Abū Alī:
 * “Hāl al-jarīd dūn al-karīd” (the choking stops the verse).

(These were the proverbial words of the jahiliyya poet ʿAbīd ibn al-Abraṣ uttered on the point of being put to death on the orders of the last king of Hīra, an-Nomān Ibn al-Mundir al-Lakhmi, and commanded to first recite some of his verse.)

Ibn Duraid died in August of 933, on a Wednesday,   He was buried on the east bank of the Tigris River in the Abbasiya cemetery, and his tomb was next to the old arms bazaar near the As-Shārī ‘l Aazam. The celebrated muʿtazilite philosopher cleric Hāshim Abd as-Salām al-Jubbāi died the same day. Some of Baghdad cried "Philology and theology have died on this day!"

Works
He is said to have written over fifty books of language and literature. As a poet his versatility and range was proverbial and his output too prodigious to count. His collection of forty stories were much cited and quoted by later authors, though only fragments survive. Perhaps drawing on his Omani ancestry, his poetry contains some distinctly Omani themes.

Kitāb al-Maqṣūrah

 * Maqṣūrah (مقصورة) i.e. "Compartment", or "Short Alif" (maqsūr); also known as Kasīda; is a eulogium to al-Shāh 'Abd-Allāh Ibn Muḥammad Ibn Mīkāl and his son Abu'l-Abbas Ismail; editions by A. Haitsma (1773), E. Scheidius (1786), and N. Boyesen (1828). Various commentaries on the poem exist in manuscript (cf. C. Brockelmann, Gesch. der Arab. lit., i. 211 ff., Weimar, 1898).

Kitāb al-Ishtiqāq

 * (الاشتقاق كتاب ضد الشعوبية وفيه يفسر اشتقاق الأسماء العربية) (Book of Etymology Against Shu'ubiyya and Arabic Name Etymologies Explained); abbr., Kitāb ul-Ištiqāq (الاشتقاق) (ed., Wüstenfeld, Göttingen, 1854): Descriptions of etymological ties of Arabian tribal names and the earliest polemic against the "šu‘ūbīya" populist movement.

Jamhara fi 'l-Lughat

 * Jamhara fi 'l-Lughat (جمهرة اللغة) (The Main Part, The Collection) on the science of language, or Arabic Language dictionary, Owing to the fragmented process of the text's dictation, the early parts made in Persia and later parts from memory in Baghdad, with frequent additions and deletions evolved from a diversity of transcriptions, additions and deletion, led to inconsistencies.  The grammarian Abū al-Fatḥ 'Ubayd Allāh ibn Aḥmad collected several of the various manuscripts and produced a corrected copy which ibn Duraid read and approved. Originally in three manuscript volumes, the third largely comprised an extensive index. Published in Hyderabad, India in four volumes (1926, 1930).  The historian Al-Masudi praised Ibn Duraid as the intellectual heir of Al-Khalil ibn Ahmad al-Farahidi, the compiler of the first Arabic dictionary, the Kitab al-'Ayn (كتاب العين), i.e. "The Source Book". in his Kitāb al-Fihrist Al-Nadīm reports a written account by Abū al-Fatḥ ibn al-Naḥwī that Ibn Duraid examined the manuscript of Kitāb al-'Ayn at Baṣrah in 248H/ 862CE. Al-Nadim also names ibn Duraid among a group of scholar proofreaders who corrected the Kitāb al-'Ayn. However while Ibn Duraid's dictionary builds on al-Farahidi's - indeed Niftawayh, a contemporary of Ibn Duraid's, even accused him of plagiarizing from al-Farahidi  - Ibn Duraid departs from the system which had been followed previously, of a phonetic progression of letter production that began with the 'deepest' letter, the glottal pharyngeal letter "ع" (عين), i.e. ʿayn meaning "source".  Instead he adopted the abjad, or Arabic alphabetic ordering system that is the universal standard of dictionary format today.

St John's, Ashfield

St John the Baptist Anglican Church is an active Anglican church located between Alt and Bland Streets, Ashfield, a suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Founded in 1840, on land donated by Elizabeth Underwood, the church building is the oldest authenticated surviving building in Ashfield, having been built at the time when subdivision increased the population density sufficiently to turn Ashfield into a town. It was also the first church built along the Parramatta Road which linked the early colonial towns of Sydney and Parramatta. The earliest remaining parts of the building are one of the first Sydney designs by the colonial architect Edmund Blacket, who later became renowned for his ecclesiastical architecture.

The expansive church grounds contain a cemetery dating back to 1845 that contains the remains of many notable Ashfield residents. Australia's only memorial to Australian Air Force Cadets occupies a prominent position near the entrance to the church. The St John's site has been listed on the Local Environment Plan Heritage Schedule, and the Register of the National Trust of Australia.

St John's is one of three churches, along with St Albans, Five Dock, and St Oswald's, Haberfield, which make up Christ Church Inner West, operating within the parish of Ashfield, Five Dock, and Haberfield, as part of the South Sydney Region of the Anglican Diocese of Sydney. The church has had 18 rectors, including William George Hilliard who later became the Bishop of Nelson. Andrew Katay has been rector since early 2005.

History
St John's was the first church to be established along Parramatta Road between the colonial towns of Sydney and Parramatta (then known as Rose Hill), during a time of rapid church building when many of the oldest churches in Sydney were erected. Since 1810 the Parish of Ashfield had extended from Balmain to Strathfield, and from Enfield to the Parramatta River, and in 1840 this was formalized into an ecclesiastical district.

Early contributors
The first portion of grounds, an area of 1 acre, 2 roods, and 36 perches (a total of 0.698 ha), was provided as a gift by the local landowner Elizabeth Underwood who was subdividing "Ashfield Park". The Bishop of Australia, William Grant Broughton added urgency by expressing his "intention of having a Place of Worship erected immediately, on the allotment of land appropriated for that purpose". Another benefactor was William Bland, a doctor and politician who had been sent to the colony having been convicted of manslaughter after pistol duel which left his opponent mortally wounded, and after whom Bland street is named. He gave a donation of £200 and land. Fellow local medical practitioner, James Bowman, contributed a "similarly munificent donation". By mid-1839 the funds received were thought to be sufficient to commence building. The exact location was determined in February 1840, and appeals continued to fund a building of sufficient size for the surrounding population.

Church building

The church was founded on 9 September 1840. The service on that day was read by the first rector, Joseph Kidd Walpole, who had come to the district from Christ Church, Kelso, and had begun to plan the church building. W. G. Broughton made an address at the ceremony. The anniversary sermon was preached by Robert Allwood.

Building work on the church began in 1841, but construction came to a standstill due to construction problems and insufficient subscriptions. The following year the colonial architect Edmund Blacket, as one of his first assignments after arriving in Sydney, was requested to inspect the church's walls, then still under construction. As a result of his report, the walls were demolished and re-erected, although continued funding problems, and the transfer of J. K. Walpole to Windsor caused further delays. The church was licensed for operation on 1 October 1843. Much of the interior woodwork was carved by the third rector, Frederick Wilkinson. The roof was strengthened in around 1845 by the installation of timber support columns. On 16 August 1845, at a cost of £100 the church purchased an additional 2.5 acre of land from Elizabeth Underwood (who remained a parishioner until her death, and is buried in a prominent grave within the church cemetery). The church was eventually consecrated on 19 August 1845.

After 29 years, as the Bishop of Sydney Frederic Barker put it "the population of Sydney had invaded these sylvan shades", so an expansion was required. Blacket designed the current stone transept and chancel, to transform the church into a cruciform plan. These were built during the period 1874–1875 at a cost of around £150 – raised without the help of grants from the government or the English societies. The foundation stone of the addition was laid by Barker on 24 October 1874, and included a copy of Australian Churchman and The Sydney Morning Herald. At the time this addition accommodated an extra 250 seats, bringing the total capacity to 446.

Construction of the choir vestry and a wooden porch outside the western door were completed in 1885, and dedicated by Bishop Alfred Barry. This work was overseen by the Blacket brothers, who had followed the trade of their late father.

Arthur Blacket then designed the west tower. The eight-bell peal was ordered from England after a generous bequest by one of the "Melanesian boys", David Marguay, and subsequent fundraising. The tower was then quickly constructed at a cost of around £250 in memory of the recently deceased rector James Christian Corlette, and dedicated as The Corlette Memorial Tower on 1 November 1901. The memorial bells proved depressing amongst the local populace, and were rearranged in 1904, with louvres added to the previously open arches. This was apparently ineffective, as the bells were removed within a few years.

Music
Prior to the installation of a pipe organ, a seraphine and then a harmonium were used for musical accompaniment. The first organ was installed above the gallery at the western end of the church by William Davidson at the request of the rector J. C. Corlette, and was transferred to the south transept in about 1879, where it remained until 1882 when it was sold to St Bartholomew's, Pyrmont, and later St Luke's, Northmead.

The 1883 Hill and Son organ, including 844 pipes, costing a total of £550, was installed in 1884, and located in the north-east corner of the transept. It is still in use, with original pipework, making it faithful to the original tones. The organ was refurbished and rebuilt in 1950, 1975, and 2008.

The 1950 change from mechanical to electrical action was motivated by removing the increasingly noisy pedals and trackers. This refurbishment also included detachment of the console (to the other side of the transept), and replacement of the bellows with a "pressure equaliser". The façade pipes were sprayed to a dull gold colour, covering over the original diapering, described disparagingly at the time as "all over the pipes without much rhyme or reason; fleurs-de-lys in profusion, dots, bands, triangles in all the colours of the rainbow rioted in confusion". This work was carried out by R. A. and D. A. Wiltshire.

By 1975 the organ had become unplayable, and a reconversion to mechanical action was undertaken. The console was moved back to the organ side of the transept, with the action going backward under the floor into the organ. This necessitated removal of floor joists and foundation piers, but the unsupported floor caused further problems long term, and during the 2008 rebuild it was re-electrified.

Between 2006 and 2008 Sydney firm "John W Parker – Pipe Organ Builders" refurbished the organ, returning the soundboard action to electric, providing a new roll-top 'detached' console, and an entirely new wind supply and bellows. The swell box which had been discarded in the 1975 rebuild was reinstated, and the pedal Bourdon 16' stop was extended to 8' pitch. Octave couplers were provided in Sub and Octave pitches on the Swell also. All manual pipework was washed, cleaned and regulated to original Hill standards and tonality.

The church had a significant choral history, with significant events often celebrated with a full choir, sometimes accompanied by an orchestra. In the late 19th century the St John's choir participated in regional choir festivals.

Site development
A small hall for Sunday school was erected in 1865 by the generosity of L. H. Smythe. By 1895 the hall had fallen into disrepair, and the needs of the children had outgrown it. The current Parish Hall was planned to replace it. The memorial stone for the replacement building was laid by the Primate of Australia, William Saumarez Smith in inclement weather on 2 February 1895. The architect was E. A. Scott, and his building design was of a "domestic style... with a highly decorated front". It cost £625 10s, was complete within three months, and seated up to 400. However, by 1903, the Sunday school had once again outgrown the space available, and an additional infants classroom was built nearby. This is now called the Small Hall, and is used as a classroom for the St John's Preschool.

A rectory was first provided for the rector J. C. Corlette and his large family in 1879. A block of land, located on what is now the corner of Rectory Avenue and Alt Street, was purchased for £444, and the foundation stone was laid by Bishop Barker in 1880. This original rectory was sold in 1922 for £1800. The current rectory, on the main grounds of the church, was founded by Archbishop John Charles Wright in the same year, during the rectorship of William George Hilliard, and built at a cost of £2500.

Gravel pathways lined with Phoenix canariensis palms, the lawn in front of the church, and the stone churchyard fence were also constructed in the 1920s. The Alt Street wall was erected in 1922, and dedicated to the previous rector Alfred Yarnold. The Bland Street wall was dedicated in 1927 by Archdeacon Davies, and commemorates one of the key contributors, R. A. Forsaith.

The cemetery, which had been in existence since soon after the foundation of the church (the first interment was Frederick Underwood, Elizabeth's 11-month-old grandson, on 1 May 1845), was consecrated by the Archbishop of Sydney, Howard West Kilvinton Mowll, on 8 September 1934. By this stage it reportedly already contained the remains of 1,396 people. He was asked by the rector of the time to "set apart the area, containing 4 acres and 4 perches (1.63 ha), as a burial-place for the bodies of Christian people living in and about Ashfield".

Australia's only memorial to Australian Air Force Cadets occupies a prominent position on the grounds, and a memorial service attended by the Cadets has been held annually since it was opened by the State Governor Lieutenant General John Northcott in 1946. It was built by Squadron Leader Arthur Whitehurst who had commanded a squadron at Ashfield during the period 1941–1946, and whose son Douglas Arthur Whitehurst had died in action in World War II.

A children's playground was installed near the Alt St boundary in 2011, and opened by Ashfield Municipal Council Mayor Ted Cassidy and Strathfield MP Charles Casuscelli.

Regional influence
A number of local street names were derived from the presence of St John's. Church Street, which ends directly opposite the church entrance, was originally the track used by Burwood residents to reach the church, using a conveniently located fallen tree across Iron Cove Creek.

As the population of Sydney's Inner West grew, many of the Anglican churches in the area were established by the congregation of St John's (including four during the final thirty years of the nineteenth century). These include Balmain, Burwood, Five Dock, St Thomas' Enfield (declared a separate parish in 1868), and St Oswald's Haberfield (1908). Because of this involvement, St John's was later referred to as the "Mother Church of Western Suburbs".

Rectors
St. John's has had eighteen rectors to date.

Acting rectors
From time to time, an acting rector or locum tenens has taken on temporary leadership, or filled a gap between rectors.

Septimus Hungerford was acting rector in 1879. He had previously been the rector of St Peter's Cathedral, Armidale. Later he became the incumbent at St Thomas' Enfield.

William Hough took temporary leadership in 1889 whilst J. C. Corlette undertook the precentorship of Goulburn Cathedral.

Arthur Christian Corlette stood in temporarily for his older brother J. C. Corlette in 1898.

Robert William Phayre Montgomery filled in at St John's after the death of J. C. Corlette, during the period 1900–1901. He was an Irishman who came to Australia as a missionary chaplain in 1891. After leaving St John's he took up a position as vicar of Cressy

Arthur Killworth M.A. LL.B., acted as rector during the period 1928–1931.

Archdeacon William Apedaile Charlton led St John's for four months in 1939 after the departure of H. S. Cocks. He had already served in Sydney churches for 55 years.

James R. Le Huray, Th.L. was the acting rector during the period 2004–2005. Rev J.R Le Huray came to St John's from Holy Trinity Kingsford, where he had served for 27 years as Rector. He is currently at St Jude's Randwick, as Assistant Minister.

Education
In the mid-1850s St John's established a Church of England Denominational Day School in a small, plain white stone building near the corner of Charlotte and Bland St,  However, when the Ashfield public school expanded in 1875, the church school proved unable to compete, and by 1880 it was closed. The building was sold to the newly begun Ashfield Boy's College in 1882, but was demolished in 1885.

Catholic education in the area flourished, and seeing this, J. C. Corlette wrote to England to Miss Ellen Clarke, suggesting that she start a school for young ladies in Ashfield. This went ahead, the school known as Normanhurst School began in a cottage in Bland Street. Although it was officially non-denominational, Normanhurst maintained strong links with St John's. The school grew, and moved premises to Orpington Street, but eventually closed down in 1941.

Church
Having evolved over a long period, the church building displays elements of a range of styles including Colonial Gothic Picturesque, Victorian and Federation Free Gothic. The transepts and chancel are constructed from Sydney sandstone, whereas the nave and tower are rendered brick. The roofs are all slate.

The interior has been described as "architecturally much more satisfying than its exterior". It has a hammerbeam ceiling with a curved rafter roof with colonettes, plaster walls, and stained glass in every window from a range of periods. The reredos and pulpit are distinctive cedar carvings by the early rector F. Wilkinson.

Cemetery
The cemetery is geographically aligned with the church, and takes up a large portion of the land area. The oldest graves are on the eastern side of the path, and typically face west. Newer graves on the western side of the path generally face east.

A number of notable former Ashfield residents are buried at St John's. First Fleet convict, John Limeburner/Linburner, had been transported for stealing clothing to the value of about one pound, eventually died in 1847 aged 104. His headstone was defaced by vandals in 1965. Several members of the Wilkinson and Underwood families were significant in the early European settlement of the Ashfield district. Louise Taplin (1855–1901) was matron of The Infants' Home Child and Family Services for 15 years until her death, and led the home through the 1890s depression, despite a shortage of salaried staff. Henry Halloran (1811–1893) was a poet and resident of Ashfield, and was married to Elizabeth Underwood's daughter Elizabeth. Thomas Walker, a banker and philanthropist who owned and developed Yaralla Estate, is in a family grave with his wife Jane, and daughter Eadith's ashes. Samuel Henry Terry, a wealthy landowner and politician is also buried at St Johns, having spent the last part of his life in an Ashfield residence named The Lilacs. Randolph John Want was a solicitor and member of the New South Wales Legislative Council. Edward Wrench was one of the founding partners of real estate agents Richardson & Wrench. Amy Schauer was a cookery instructor and author. The graveyard also contains members of the Taverner, Uhr and Rodd families, after whom the localities Taverner's Hill, Uhr's Point, and Rodd Point are named. There are also graves of three former rectors: T. H. Wilkinson, W. Lumsdaine, and J. C. Corlette, and members of their families, together with a pioneer clergyman, E. Rogers.

Beside these prominent figures, many of the St John's graves contain children. Typhoid and whooping cough epidemics took heavy tolls in the Victorian period. Although Ashfield was known as a healthy area, many families lost two or even three children.

Burial rates at St John's declined rapidly around the turn of the 20th century. The rector's notes from the time indicate that many funeral services conducted at the church now preceded burial at Rookwood Cemetery. Although the cemetery has never officially been closed, no burial plots have been sold for some years. A memorial garden for the interment of ashes was opened in the time of J. R. Seddon, providing a popular resting place for the Ashfield community.

Since the late 1970s day-release prisoners have assisted with maintenance of the cemetery grounds. In Australia's bicentennial year, 1988, a $16,000 grant was awarded for restoration work in the cemetery, at which time some broken gravestones were cemented together, and some illegible ones were 'cut back' and the letters repainted.

Annex
In 2017 an annex was added directly adjacent and connected to the western side of the church, to provide running water, kitchen and function facilities to the church. It is used mainly for kid's church and communal meals (primarily morning tea) after church services.

Ministry
Andrew Katay became the 18th rector in early 2005. In 2008 the church was part of an amalgamation with the parish of Five Dock and Haberfield, forming Christ Church Inner West Anglican Community (CCIW) with Andrew Katay continuing as the rector of the new parish. There are currently three Sunday services at Ashfield, and two at Five Dock.

Since July 2006 it has run a mothers and children group, which discusses Christian parenting issues, and teaches English to those for whom it is not their native language.

In 2010 the church began an outdoor film festival showing ghost and horror movies in the historic cemetery.

Category:Modernist poetry in English

Modernist poetry in English is generally considered to have emerged in the early years of the 20th century with the first appearance of the Imagist poets. Although short-lived, the Imagist group were to prove highly influential and most subsequent English language modernist poets and poetic movements owed something to them.

The modernist tradition that began with the Imagists continues into the 21st century.

Frank C. Whitmore

Frank Clifford Whitmore (October 1, 1887 – June 24, 1947), nicknamed "Rocky", was a prominent chemist who submitted significant evidence for the existence of carbocation mechanisms in organic chemistry.

He was born in 1887 in the town of North Attleborough, Massachusetts.

Academic career
Whitmore earned both his bachelor's degree (1911) and Ph.D. (1914) from Harvard University, where his Ph.D. advisor was Charles Loring Jackson. Several prominent contemporaries of Whitmore at Harvard were E.K. Bolton, Farrington Daniels, Roger Adams, James B. Sumner and James Bryant Conant. After graduating from Harvard he became a professor and taught at the University of Minnesota, Northwestern University, and The Pennsylvania State University.

At Penn State, Whitmore served as the Dean of the School of Chemistry and Physics from 1929–1947, succeeding his former Harvard colleague Gerald Wendt in the position. He hired several prominent scientists as faculty members, including Russell Marker and Merrell Fenske.

Whitmore was a member of several academic societies, namely the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (1939), the American Philosophical Society (1943), and the United States National Academy of Sciences (1946).

Research and publications
While at the Pennsylvania State University Whitmore did his research on carbocations. The field of organic chemistry was struggling to explain how a compound with a double bonded carbon, an alkene, reacts with a halide compound. Whitmore worked on the findings of others and generalized the concept of molecules with a positively charged carbon atom, a carbocation, as an intermediate step in the addition of a halogen element.

Whitmore would go on to publish his findings in a paper titled "The Common Basis of Intramolecular Rearrangements." They were controversial at the time because many chemists, notably well known chemist Roger Adams, a critic of Whitmore's, believed that a molecule like a carbocation would never be stable enough to exist. Nevertheless, Whitmore published these findings which today are accepted as the most logical explanation for the reactions in question.

In 1937, Whitmore published Organic Chemistry, the first advanced organic chemistry textbook to be written in English. Whitmore worked on a revision of the book for several years, though the work was interrupted by World War II. The second edition of Organic Chemistry was published posthumously in 1951.

American Chemical Society
Whitmore was very active in the American Chemical Society (ACS), holding several different offices in the organization throughout his life. In 1938, he served as president of ACS. During his presidency, he visited 72 of 104 local ACS sections. In 1937, Whitmore won the prized William H. Nichols Medal Award, given by the New York section of ACS. In 1945, Whitmore was awarded the Willard Gibbs Medal (considered to be the highest chemical honor in America) by the Chicago section of ACS.

Whitmore rarely slept. It was not rare for him work twenty hours a day, and take one-hour naps when he was tired.

Personal life
Whitmore married Marion Gertrude Mason (who graduated from Radcliffe College with a degree in chemistry in 1912) in 1914. The Whitmores had four children: Frank Jr., Mason, Harry, and Marion, Jr ("Marionette").

Whitmore died in 1947 at the age of 59 as the result of a heart ailment.

Penn State's Whitmore Laboratory is named after Whitmore.

Australian Hymn Book

The Australian Hymn Book (ISBN 1-86371-150-3) was published in 1977, and was the culmination of almost ten years' work by an ecumenical committee, chaired by A. Harold Wood, intent on producing a new, contemporary and inclusive hymn book that could be used in worship by the varied Christian congregations across Australia. The first meetings were held in 1968 amongst representatives of the Anglican (Church of England), Congregational, Methodist and Presbyterian churches. A draft list of hymns was circulated in 1972, and in 1974, the Roman Catholic Church asked to be included and two versions of the hymn book were eventually published: the Australian Hymn Book (containing 579 items) and the Australian Hymn Book with Catholic Supplement (adding a further 25 items). The new hymn book was taken up widely, especially with the union of the Congregational, the Methodist and most of the Presbyterian parishes that created the Uniting Church in Australia in 1977. In its international edition, the hymn book is known as With One Voice (not to be confused with the 1995 work published by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America as a supplement to the Lutheran Book of Worship).

The hymn book contains indexes to first lines, tunes, composers, authors, subjects, scripture and the religious calendar. A companion book, Songs of the People of God, by Wesley Milgate, was released in 1982, and contains notes on the sources and history of each tune and hymn text, along with short biographies of all authors and composers.

After a survey conducted in 1990, it was decided that a new edition of the Australian Hymn Book was needed. Together in Song: Australian Hymn Book II was released in 1999. The major changes were the modernisation of the texts (particularly the use of inclusive language), the removal of hymns that had fallen out of use, and the addition of more modern musical settings, worship songs and psalm settings. A companion volume with notes on songs, lyrists and composers compiled by Rev. Dr. H. D'Arcy Wood is also available.

Société Générale
Hi Alkiviadis, trying to translate your excellent article about the french bank Société Générale into German, I read ocaisonally, that you speak German too. So may be, you can help me, because I think, you are extremly familiar with the banking language: How would you translate "mutual fund management business" into German? Although speaking English on an advanced level and using different dictonairies, I didn't find a translation, that really fits. Translating it literal, it would be "Gegenseitigkeitsmanagementgeschäft" or "Mehrzweckfondsmanagementgeschäft", but I do not know anything like this in banking business. Would you please describe a "mutual fund"? If you like to read my complete translation before publishing, please give me a note on my talk page. Best regards and thanks! --Rosa Lux 23:55, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi Rosa Lux, sorry to be so late at my answer but I hadn't been checking wikipedia for a long time. So, I suppose that "mutual fund management business" would be best translated in German as "Investmentfondsmanagementgeschäft".

I hope I helped, (Alkiviadis 11:50, 29 March 2006 (UTC))

Mario di Calasio

Mario di Calasio (1550 in Calascio, Abruzzi, Italy – February 1, 1620 in Ara Coeli) was an Italian Minorite friar.

Biography
Joining the Franciscans at an early age, he devoted himself to Oriental languages and became an authority on Hebrew. Once entering Rome he was appointed by Paul V, whose confessor he was to the chair of Scripture at Ara Coeli. Calasio is known by his Concordantiae sacrorum Bibliorum hebraicorum, published in 4 vols. (Rome, 1622),   two years after his death, a work which is based on Nathan's Hebrew Concordance (Venice, 1523).

Works
For forty years Calasio labored on this work, and he secured the assistance of the greatest scholars of his age. The Concordance evinces great care and accuracy. All root-words are treated in alphabetical order and the whole Bible has been collated for every passage containing the word, so as to explain the original idea, which is illustrated from the cognate usages of the Aramaic, Syriac, Rabbinical Hebrew and Arabic. Calasio gives under each Hebrew word the literal Latin translation, and notes any existing differences from the Vulgate and Septuagint readings. An incomplete English translation of the work was published in London by Romaine in 1747. Calasio also wrote a Hebrew grammar, Canones generales linguae sanctatae (Rome, 1616), and the Dictionarium hebraicum (Rome, 1617).

Osorkon III

Usermaatre Setepenamun Osorkon III Si-Ese was Pharaoh of Egypt in the 8th Century BC. He is the same person as the Crown Prince and High Priest of Amun Osorkon B, son of Takelot II by his Great Royal Wife Karomama II. Prince Osorkon B is best attested by his Chronicle—which consists of a series of texts documenting his activities at Thebes—on the Bubastite Portal at Karnak. He later reigned as king Osorkon III in Upper Egypt for twenty-eight years after defeating the rival forces of Pedubast I/Shoshenq VI who had apparently resisted the authority of his father here. Osorkon ruled the last five years of his reign in coregency with his son, Takelot III, according to Karnak Nile Level Text No. 13. Osorkon III's formal titulary was long and elaborate: Usermaatre Setepenamun, Osorkon Si-Ese Meryamun, Netjer-Heqa-waset.

Accession
Osorkon III's precise accession date is unknown. Various Egyptologists have suggested it may have been from around the mid-790s BC to as late as 787 BC. The issue is complicated by the fact that Prince Osorkon B did not immediately declare himself king after his successful conquest of Thebes and defeat of Shoshenq VI. This is evidenced by the fact that he dated this seminal event to Year 39 of Shoshenq III rather than Year 1 of his reign. Osorkon III may, therefore, have waited for a minimum of one or two years before proclaiming himself as a Pharaoh of the Theban-based 23rd Dynasty. Osorkon may also have been motivated to defeat or pacify any remaining supporters of the Pedubast I/Shoshenq VI rival faction in other regions of Upper Egypt whether they were in Elephantine, the Western Desert Oasis region—where Pedubast I is monumentally attested—or elsewhere in order to consolidate his position. Hence, Year 1 of Osorkon III is likely equivalent to Year 1 or Year 2 of Shoshenq IV instead, rather than Year 39 of Shoshenq III.

Identity
Osorkon III is attested by numerous impressive donation stelae and stone blocks from Herakleopolis Magna through to Thebes. He is generally thought to have been a contemporary of the Lower Egyptian 22nd Dynasty kings, Shoshenq IV, Pami, and the first decade of Shoshenq V's reign. Osorkon III's chief wife was Queen Karoadjet but his second wife was named Tentsai. A stela of Prince Osorkon B calls his spouse Tent[...] with part of the name being lost. The latter name can be rendered as either Tentsai or Tentamun. Significantly, however, both men have a daughter called Shepenupet.

Secondly, according to Ōhshiro Michinori, Anthony Leahy, and Karl Jansen-Winkeln, an important donation stela discovered in 1982 at Ṭihnā al-Ǧabal (ancient Akoris) reveals that Osorkon III was once a High Priest of Amun in his own right. The document explicitly calls Osorkon III, the High Priest of Amun. Osorkon III, thus, was almost certainly the High Priest Osorkon B, who defeated his father's opponents at Thebes in Year 39 of Shoshenq III, as Leahy notes.

This theory has now been accepted by many Egyptologists, including Jürgen von Beckerath, Karl Jansen-Winkeln, Gerard Broekman, and Aidan Dodson, among others, with the notable exception of Kenneth Kitchen. Aidan Dodson and Dyan Hilton sum up the evidence by noting: "That Osorkon B is the same person as King Osorkon III is indicated by the fact that the former's last appearance as High Priest of Amun seems to directly precede Osorkon III's assumption of the throne, reinforcing a stela from Tehna which mentions the latter with the additional title of High Priest—an unusual occurrence."

Osorkon probably lived into his eighties, which explains why he appointed his son Takelot III as the junior coregent to the throne in his final years. He would have been in failing health by this time. Osorkon III's coregency with Takelot III is the last attested royal coregency in ancient Egyptian history. Later dynasties from Nubia, Sais, and Persia all ruled Egypt with a single king on the throne.

Karnak Nile Level Texts No. 6 and 7, dated to Year 5 and 6 of Osorkon III, calls his mother the "Chief Queen Kamama Merymut." Similarly, Prince Osorkon B's mother was identified as Queen Kamama Merymut II, wife of Takelot II. The slightly different renderings of this Queen's name almost certainly refers to the same person here: Osorkon B/III.

Consorts
According to Kenneth Kitchen, Osorkon III's chief consort, Queen Karoadjet, was the mother of Shepenupet I, the God's Wife and Divine Adoratrice of Amun, while his lesser wife Tentsai was the mother of Osorkon III's two sons: Takelot III and Rudamun. Shepenupet I outlived both her half-brothers as the serving God's Wife of Amun at Thebes and survived into the reign of the Nubian ruler, Shebitku, where she is depicted on the small temple Osiris-Heqa-djet in the Amun precinct of Karnak, which was partially decorated by this king.

Talk:Lee Evans (comedian)

Comedy Style
Could someone please add Lee's comedy style(s) to the sidebar like other comedians have. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.146.56.3 (talk) 12:23, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

Roots
Are Lee Evans roots Jewish, Protastant or Catholic?

re:I thought he was hindu? Does it matter where he comes from?
 * User:tommyhaych 23:52, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Well, from what he says in his stand-up acts, not to mention his name, he is very much definitely a Welshman. Whether or not he is protestant or catholic... well, it is hard to say. However, of my fellow Welshmen and Welshwomen, Catholics tend to be darker-skinned (due to the historic Spanish influx), however Lee Evans is quite fair-skinned. He also alludes to Cardiff ancestory. Thus, I would reckon it is more likely he is CofE or CofW than RC. I wouldn't bet money on it though. Of course, why would he have any religion? He may be agnostic or atheist, or he may be of another belief system. I guess your best bet is to e-mail him/his manager, if you are that interested. It can't hurt, it's not taboo! :-)
 * However, religion aside, I think we can agree he is a very funny guy! I can't wait until I get the chance to see him live! Awesome.

Interesting line
This line is interesting: "in 1981, at age 17, he married Heather Evans, with whom he has a daughter, Mollie, born in 1994, and a dog, Brian". Seems to imply that his wife gave birth to a dog??? 82.46.18.154 (talk) 12:11, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

Fixed. --Vergency (talk) 00:39, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Age and year of marriage incorrect
I went to see him last night, and he said he'd been married to his wife for 24 years. This makes sense as 3 years ago at the XL Tour he said he'd been married to her for 21 years. So I'm seriously doubting his age as being 44 if he married his wife at 17, he'd be about 41 wouldn't he? Unless he didn't marry his wife at 17, but he did say they married very young. WilkoDCFC (talk) 10:43, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * If you think his age is wrong, why don't you just edit it and change his age? Jprulestheworld (talk) 15:47, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

EDIT: Just looked at this article:  Says:

"Obviously, that idiotic persona is exaggerated, but it comes out on stage because of nerves," says Evans who turned 41 in February.

Then later it says:

"I've been married for 21 years now," he reflects.

So by the looks of things he didn't get married at 17, so I reckon the "married at 17 in 1981" bit should be removed, because that interview was done in 2005, so he would have been married in 1984 and the age of 20. Especially as in his new tour he says he was married 24 years ago, which makes sense. WilkoDCFC (talk) 19:37, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

His work
Shouldn't this page contain a discography of his DVD releases? --90.216.190.245 (talk) 17:13, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Sweatiness
I think we are probably overdoing the sweatiness. Even if Evans' problems with sweat are as bad as presented here, he probably isn't as unusual among performers of his type. --TS 09:35, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

 * You'd think so, but go see one of his performances on youtube and you'd see that the man sweats profusely during every show.(216.36.153.161 (talk) 14:34, 12 March 2010 (UTC)).

Norman Wisdom
Just as once it was rare to hear the name Kenneth Branagh without a reference to Laurence Olivier, the association between Evans and Norman Wisdom has become a cliche. I've googled on this and the only mention of Wisdom I can find by Evans himself is in a 2004 interview in the Daily Telegraph where Evans denies Wisdom as an influence. I've altered our article accordingly. --TS 09:35, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Charlie Chaplin as an influence?
I can't help but find amazing similarities in their mannerisms.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find this comparison anywhere on the net.

Nationality
As per WP:BRD, I've edited the subject's nationality from Welsh to British. The subject's location of birth and residence are given as places in England. The article nowhere refers to Wales. I see from above that some editors have said Evans refers in his act to being Welsh, but for his biographical article here to assert that there needs to be some evidence. I have edited to British rather than English simply because the former (plus NI) is a soverign nationality. I have no objection to it being English but I have edited to respect the possibility that he is indeed Welsh: Whether he is or not, though, he is certainly British. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emmentalist (talk • contribs) 09:18, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Years Active
I've reverted/edited years active, which had been altered to note that the subject is preasently active. The article explicitly says that Evans retired in 2014 then came briefly out of retirement for a single event in 2017. It is inconsistent to therefore assert that he is active today. Of course, many actors do nothing at all for some years then do a movie and are not considered inactive over that intervening period. But this article specifically asserts that Evans retired, and Evans himself has said this. If the article is to be changed to say he is not retired, then all the relevant parts of the article need to be edited - along with a rationale so other editors can, if they wish, give or withold consensus.
