Speedy deletion of File:Spectator2003.jpg
A tag has been placed on File:Spectator2003.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image showing no evidence that the copyright holder has released it under the license indicated by the uploader which has been tagged as such for more than 7 days, and it still lacks the necessary information.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ▫  Johnny Mr Nin ja  17:58, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Jo Sullivan Loesser

Elizabeth Josephine Sullivan Loesser (née Sullivan; August 28, 1927 – April 28, 2019) was an American actress and high lyric soprano singer. She became a musical theatre star with her performance in the original production of The Most Happy Fella, for which she was nominated for a Tony Award in 1957.

Early years
She was the daughter of Hessie Boone Sullivan and Eileen Celeste Woods Sullivan, who worked for a lumber-distributing company and sold cosmetics, respectively. She was born in Mounds, Illinois, on August 28, 1927, and attended Cleveland High School. After studying singing in St. Louis, in the late 1940s, she studied music at Columbia University after failing to be accepted at Juilliard School and working at Lord & Taylor department store in New York to support herself. She competed on the Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts radio program but lost to a pair of harmonica players.

Career
Sullivan played Polly Peachum in Marc Blitzstein's English-language adaptation of The Threepenny Opera by Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht off-Broadway in 1954. She also appeared as herself in an "original special" on Broadway, called Let's Make An Opera (1950), which boasted music by Benjamin Britten, a libretto by Eric Crozier, musical direction by Norman Del Mar, and was directed by Marc Blitzstein.

In the summer of 1951, she played Dorothy Gale in The Muny's production of The Wizard of Oz, opposite Margaret Hamilton, who reprised her film role of the Wicked Witch of the West. In 1992, Loesser's daughter, Emily, played the same role at The Muny, marking the first time in The Muny's history that a role has been played by both mother and daughter. Loesser later reprised her role in the 1953 production at the Kansas City Starlight Theatre.

She married Frank Loesser on April 29, 1959, just ahead of the May 1, 1959, deadline that Sullivan had given Loesser to marry her "or she would carry on with her career and forget about him." They had two children, Hannah (1962–2007) and Emily (born 1965), who is also a singer-actress.

She also appeared on numerous recordings, such as Loesser by Loesser (alongside her daughter, Emily) as well as several albums for Ben Bagley's "Revisited" series on Painted Smiles Records (most notably Kurt Weill Revisited, Leonard Bernstein Revisited, and Frank Loesser Revisited).

In the early 1980s, she resumed her performing career when officials of The Ballroom, a nightclub in New York City, asked her to sing some of her late husband's songs. After that, she performed at other night clubs and in several theatrical musicals. In 1984, Loesser developed a revue, Jo Sullivan Sings Frank Loesser and Friends, that was presented in several cities.

From the time of her husband's death in 1969 until her own death in 2019, she managed his estate, particularly Frank Music Company, which included guiding production of all of his musicals, including Guys and Dolls, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and The Most Happy Fella. The publishing portion of the company was sold to CBS Records in 1976.

Personal life
Around 1952, Sullivan married Don Jacobs. They were divorced in 1958.

In 1973, Loesser married Jack Osborn, who headed an industrial design firm.

In 1983, she began a relationship with stockbroker Jacquin Fink. The two remained partners until Sullivan's death in 2019.

Mrs. Loesser is survived by a daughter from that marriage, Emily Stephenson, an actress and singer with whom she performed into the 1990s; two stepchildren, Susan Loesser and John Loesser; four grandchildren; and her longtime companion, Jacquin Fink. Another daughter, Hannah, an artist, died of cancer in 2007.

Death
Loesser died of heart failure on April 28, 2019, at her home in New York City. She was 91.

Speedy deletion nomination of Asian African Association for Plasma Training

A tag has been placed on Asian African Association for Plasma Training requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.aaapt.org/activities-of-aaapt. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Rusf10 (talk) 19:07, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

Patrick G. Halpin

Patrick Goodchild Halpin (born January 18, 1953) is an American politician who served as the fifth county executive of Suffolk County, New York, from 1988 to 1991. Halpin is currently the Chair of the Suffolk County Water Authority.

Education and career
Halpin grew up on Long Island and attended St. Joseph's School in Babylon. He attended Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia, where he earned a B.A. degree in political science and economics. After college he was a political campaign volunteer and became a campaign staffer for Tom Downey, who was first elected to the United States House of Representatives in 1974. He later became a congressional aide for Downey.

Halpin's own political career began at age 26 in 1979, when he was elected to represent the 13th District of the Suffolk County Legislature. On April 20, 1982, he was elected to the New York State Assembly, to fill the vacancy caused by the election of Louis T. Howard to the Suffolk County Legislature. Halpin was the first Democrat in 116 years to be elected to the Assembly from that area. He was re-elected three times and remained in the Assembly until 1987, sitting in the 184th, 185th, 186th and 187th New York State Legislatures. He chaired the Committee on Ethics, and the Subcommittee on the Long Island Marine Resources.

In 1987, Halpin was elected Suffolk County Executive, at age 34 the youngest in the county's history. His achievements include instituting the drug education program DARE; an anti-domestic violence program; a homeless housing initiative; and a nationally-recognized open space and environmental program. He served one term from 1988 to 1992, when he was defeated by Robert J. Gaffney.

In 1994, Halpin became Executive Vice President at the Institute for Student Achievement, located in Lake Success on Long Island. The Institute works in partnership with schools to help low-performing students stay in school, graduate and go on to college, work, other post-secondary education or job training.

Halpin is currently the managing director of Mercury Public Affairs LLC.

In March 2006, Halpin was confirmed by the Suffolk County Legislature to a five-year term on the Suffolk County Water Authority (SCWA). Halpin was re-appointed in March 2011 and March 2016. On December 18, 2018, Halpin was appointed as the Chair of the SCWA to replace Jim Gaughran, who resigned upon his election to the New York State Senate.

Ian Billcliff

Ian Shaw Billcliff (born 26 October 1972) is a Canadian cricketer. Although born in Canada, he grew up in New Zealand.

Billcliff made his debut in first-class cricket in 1991 for Otago in New Zealand domestic cricket, and in 1992 he played twice for the New Zealand Under-19 team. He later played for Wellington from 1995 to 1997, and then for Auckland from 1997 to 1999. After leaving Auckland, he played club cricket in England in the Surrey League.

Billcliff became interested in playing a season in Canada and got in contact with the Canadian cricket president via an ICC Development Manager. Having revealed his place-of-birth, he was immediately chosen for Canada's squad in the 2001 ICC Trophy, and was an important part of the team who achieved a third-place finish, thus progressing to the World Cup. He made important contributions in the World Cup matches, including a 42 in the match against Bangladesh, and a 71 in the match against Kenya.

Since the 2003 World Cup he has played just two One Day Internationals for Canada, against Bermuda in August 2006. He has played in other tournaments for Canada though, including the 2005 ICC Trophy, the ICC Americas Championship in 2004 and 2006, and three ICC Intercontinental Cup matches. He has also captained Canada on occasion.

Billcliff continued to play cricket in New Zealand, but only in club cricket in Auckland where he has played for Cornwall. In the 2006–07 season, he played for the newly formed University/Ellerslie club, a merger between Auckland University Cricket Club and Ellerslie Cricket Club.

Talk:Shivalli

Havyakas also have the same origins
Are Tulu Brahmins related to Havyakas? Havyakas claim they were the first Brahmins to coastal Karnataka, followed by Tulu Brahmins. I suppose not only in the language(Havyakas speak a dialect of Kannada with more old Kannada influence and Shivallis speak Tulu with high Sanskrit and that of course give credibility to Havyaks claim that they are the oldest Brahmins in this region.)these two groups differ in many other respects(Shivallis were mostly feudal and Havyakas did till the land). --Manjunatha (14 Oct 2005)

He was also signed by the Kings XI Punjab for the Pepsi IPL 2013 as a replacement for the injured Ryan Harris. Mason's last match for Central Districts was on 12 February 2012. About a month before his retirement from the Central Districts, Mason helped complete what The West Australian thought might be a candidate for the "greatest cricket catch ever" by collaborating with teammate Bevan Small.

Small, while fielding as the 12th man in January 2012 during the New Zealand domestic HRV Twenty20 competition (currently known as the Super Smash) as a 19-year-old, made a spectacular catch assist on the boundary line; Mason, who was 37 at the time, completed the catch. The Laws of Cricket indicate that a catch can be initiated outside of the boundary line so long as the player is airborne whenever they are touching the ball; this must remain so until the ball is back inside the boundary (either completed by the same player or, as was the case with Small and Mason, completed by a teammate). A commentator during the match called it "possibly the most brilliant piece of fielding I've ever seen". The video has received millions of views across various online uploads.

In 2009, Mason was part of the New Zealand A vs the England Lions at Pukekura Park, where New Zealand A won the match.

International career
Michael Mason was part of the New Zealand squad for the tour of England in 2008. He took 3 wickets against Essex and was 12th man against England Lions. He was part of the New Zealand squad for the 2007 Cricket World Cup.

After cricket
Following retirement in 2012, Mason began coaching the Manawatu senior team and Palmerston North junior rep teams.

Removed sentence
This following was the last sentence in the fifth paragraph. I am not sure what it meant to say because of a typo. Whoever knows the subject can add it so that it reads better.

She on her part established Mahila Charkha Samiti in Patna to invove women in spinning wheel.

Qaz ( talk ) 08:28, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Oh, well this would be about Gandhi's movement to achieve economic self-sufficiency in textiles through local homespun cloth. So there were these huge organized campaigns to get people, high and low, old and young, to spin cloth. What was the typo? (Apart from the omission of the word "the", which is a standard practice in Indian English.) Quartier Latin   1968  16:40, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

Her nephew, the "celebrated scientist"
In this edit, Delhite adds: One of her great nephews is Ashoka Jahnavi-Prasad the celebrated scientist.

Obvious questions:

+ The answer to the second question is rather unclear. The best investigation so far will be found at AfD/Ashoka Jahnavi-Prasad, followed by its "Deletion Review". The closing administrator's summary for the Review starts ''Keep deleted. It seems clear from the discussion below that the article as the basic biography does not address notability concerns to surpass CSD G4.''
 * 1) What's the source for this claim?
 * 2) What is AJP celebrated for?
 * 3) If he's celebrated, why doesn't he have an article?

There is no clear reason to believe that Ashoka Jahnavi-Prasad is celebrated for anything, and this is the simple reason why he doesn't have an article. (Another reason will be apparent to people who read the AfD and the Review.)

Thus en:WP regards him as non-notable. And therefore even if he verifiably is related to somebody who gets an article, this fact is not notable and should not be added. -- Hoary (talk) 07:42, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

Holt McDougal

Holt McDougal is an American publishing company, a division of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, that specializes in textbooks for use in high schools.

The Holt name is derived from that of U.S. publisher Henry Holt (1840–1926), co-founder of the earliest ancestor business, but Holt McDougal is distinct from contemporary Henry Holt and Company, which claims the history from 1866. The companies publish different kinds of books.

History
Holt, Rinehart and Winston (HRW) was created in March 1960 by the merger of Henry Holt and Company of New York City (established 1866 as Leypoldt and Holt); Rinehart & Company of New York, descendant of Farrar & Rinehart (est. 1929); and the John C. Winston Company of Philadelphia (est. 1884). The Wall Street Journal reported on March 1, 1960, that Holt stockholders had approved the merger, last of the three approvals. "Henry Holt is the surviving concern, but will be known as Holt, Rinehart, Winston, Inc." In 1967, HRW was acquired by CBS.

In 1985 the retail publishing arm of HRW along with the Henry Holt name was acquired by the Georg von Holtzbrinck Publishing Group based in Stuttgart, Germany. Holtzbrinck acquired the Macmillan name in 2001 and Henry Holt is now an imprint or division of the global Macmillan Group (under Holtzbrinck; not to be confused with Macmillan US).

Also in 1985, the educational publishing arm along with the Holt, Rinehart and Winston name and logo (see image) was acquired by Harcourt. As Harcourt divested further, from 2001 HRW was a division of Harcourt Education owned by Reed Elsevier. Reed sold off parts of Harcourt Education including Holt, Rinehart, and Winston to Houghton Mifflin in 2007, part of a reorganization that created Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH). HRW was then combined with Houghton Mifflin Company's McDougal Littell subsidiary to form Holt McDougal.

Details
Holt McDougal publishes textbooks on mathematics, language arts, social studies, science, health, and world language (French, Spanish, and German). It has published children's books for the Weekly Reader Book Club including Sweet Pickles, Fraggle Rock, and Snoopy. This American publishing company has offices in Austin, Texas and Evanston, Illinois and with its parent company, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts.

Procedure for page moving did not appear to be followed here. Please refile and use the procedure outlined at WP:RM - thanks! Ryan Norton T 08:33, 15 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Sorry, got distracted halfway through. So:
 * "Abu Qatada": 126,000 Google hits
 * "Omar Abu Omar": 873
 * "Abu Qatadah": 872

Since Wikipedia naming policy for articles is to use the most common name, there's a clear case for moving. Rd232 20:15, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

 * This still hasn't been set up right. Also, I believe Abu Qatada is not Omar's real name. None of the references is clear about the man's name, so we cannot make an informed decision. I really don't like the Google-test, because it shouldn't be usd by itself. I believe that this page should not moved unless we see some detailed information about the name. We always have the option ofusing a more correct name over a more common name, the latter being a redirect (which makes the page no less difficult to find, only better named). --Gareth Hughes 21:48, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * It's not just Google test - every reference I've ever seen to this man in the media (quite a few) calls him Abu Qatada. I've never even heard of his other names before coming to this page. And "real name" is irrelevant per naming conventions (see Talk:East Germany among others.) Rd232 21:56, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

I've heard three media references to him in the last week in the media. All were Omar Abu Omar. Please don't rely on the ridiculous google test nonsense. A year ago a nutter vandalised an article here by making up a wacky spelling that didn't exist (it was part of a game with him). Within a month there were 489 references to him on google by that nutty name, because people copied what was on here and the makey-up name was not spotted here for a couple of weeks. Google tests prove wrong information on Gladstone, Disraeli, the Prince of Wales and a host of other people. Please give credible sources, not a search that may throw up right facts, wrong facts, made up facts, POV facts, propaganda, dodgy stuff and any old crap. Fear ÉIREANN \(caint) 22:48, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, but with that much a disparity in Google hits?? OK, fine, here's LexisNexis results (database of major media).
 * Omar Abu Omar: 230 hits (183 in English language media).
 * Omar Mahmoud Othman Omar: 16 hits
 * Omar Uthman Abu Omar: 7 hits
 * Abu Qutadah: 126 hits
 * Abu Qutada: 224 hits
 * Abu Qatadah: 221 hits
 * Abu Qatada: 783 hits in the last 3 months alone (Lexis won't return more than 1000 hits, so requiring you to limit your search by time period). Another time period: 1 Jan - 31 Mar 2005: 374 hits. I could go on, but do I really have to? Rd232 23:35, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Whilst we're at it, limiting the search to Major World Newspapers gives 992 Abu Qatada and 45 Omar Abu Omar. Rd232 23:37, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Have you checked for regional disparities, broadsheet usage, official publications, formal documentation, cultural usage, linguistic usage, etc?
 * I thought Major World Newspapers covered most of that, and official/formal/academic usage, insofar as it differs from common usage, is ignored by the naming conventions (which AFAIK aim at what people are likely to search for, not for what is absolutely correct). Sheesh, I give up. Abu Qatada redirects there anyway. Rd232 22:04, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

Disambig
I took out the following because Abu Omar is a disambiguation page listing Nasr and al-Kurdi. Nearly everybody calls our guy Abu Qatada anyway.

Spam
User:Esauvage is a plus-hotel.com linkspammer:

He's adding links like this "Map of Berlin areas" here. These maps pretend to be useful, but mostly their info is contained elsewhere in the articles. Besides, they're copyrighted. They're linked onclick like this.

Actually I want him/her/it blocked, but I don't know a template for this. His contributions should be deleted, his IP blocked - if static ...and the plus-hotel shall be burned down. Is there a filter to prevent the string plus-hotel.com from being entered into articles? --tickle me 09:31, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Response from Esauvage:
 * Yr comment is not fair.
 * If you look at my pages, you can see two things:
 * 1. I have made the map pages without heads and bottoms. So I do not show brands or hotels.
 * 2. I bring valuable informations regarding areas, as I took some time to build those maps.

 * So please reconsider my contributions before talking spaming.
 * Contributions from business like mine may not be always consider as an ugly move to get lure people.

 * Think before shooting please.

 * If someone finally decide to burn, block or what else, just proceed. The world is full of masters of orthodoxia. So why not so called gardians of Wiki. Too bad for everybody.

 * Esauvage, I'm going to give you another chance here. What you've been doing - adding links to your hotel chain to the articles, and nothing else - seriously looks like spam, and spam is a virulent poison on the Internet. I will grant you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you didn't realize that what you were doing is wrong. However, now you know.

 * If you linkspam more articles, I will block you. You're welcome to try doing more productive things, though. DS 14:34, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

 * I am wondering, as you took some time to build those maps, if you would upload the images of the maps and give them an appropriate licence, so they can be put to even better use? Alf melmac 21:45, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

 * @Esauvage:
 * as I took some time to build those maps...: not even enough to remove Microsoft's copyright notice...
 * Your edits are not welcomed neither by admins nor other users, your links are constantly removed while you continue reverting deletions, knowing that you shouldn't: That's bordering on vandalism.
 * I have made the map pages without heads and bottoms. So I do not show brands or hotels...: True, but you do link to them.
 * Finally, to end sophisms: There's wikitravel to provide this kind of information - explicitely to prevent businesses to travel on wiki's trails.
 * Think before shooting please...: Will do.
 * You're welcome to try doing more productive things...: Indeed
 * Contributions from business like mine may not be always consider as an ugly move to get lure people...: Arguably true, but you'll have to try better to reconcile your and wikipedia's agenda.

John Tiptoft, 1st Baron Tiptoft

John Tiptoft, 1st Baron Tiptoft (died 27 January 1443) was a Knight of the Shire for Huntingdonshire and Somerset, Speaker of the House of Commons, Treasurer of the Household, Chief Butler of England, Treasurer of the Exchequer and Seneschal of Landes and Aquitaine.

Early life
This English nobleman was the eldest son and heir of Sir Pain Tiptoft (died c. 1413) by his spouse, Agnes, née Wrothe (d. bef. 1413). He was Lord of the Manors of Burwell and Eversden, in Cambridgeshire. In 1413, he was heir to his first cousin, Elizabeth Wrothe, wife of Sir William Palton, Kt., by which he inherited the manors of Nether Wallop, Hampshire, Worcesters (in Enfield), Middlesex, and Redlynch (in Downton, Wiltshire).

Through his father, he is a descendant of Charlemagne.

Career
Tiptoft's early rise to prominence rested on fortuitous connexions. His father, Sir Payn, was closely attached to Richard, earl of Arundel, one of the Lords Appellant of 1388, but he himself joined the household of another of their number, Henry of Bolingbroke, so that as a young esquire, between April and September 1397, he spent 125 days serving infra curia at a wage of 7½d.a day. He continued in Henry's service right up to his exile, and it is highly probable that he and his father rallied to the Lancastrian banner soon after Bolingbroke's landing in Yorkshire to claim his birthright.

John was among the 46 esquires knighted by Henry on the eve of his coronation, and it was as a "King's knight" that, on 13 November 1399, he was formally retained for life with a substantial annuity of 100 marks charged on the royal revenues from Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire.

He was returned to Parliament as knight of the shire for Huntingdonshire in January and October, 1404 and again in 1406, when he was elected Speaker of the House of Commons. He represented Somerset in 1414.

He was appointed Treasurer of the Household (1406–1408), Chief Butler of England in 1407, Treasurer of the Exchequer (1408–1409), Seneschal of Aquitaine (1415–1423), Councillor of Regency to Henry VI (1422–1443) and Lord Steward of the Household (1426–1432).

On 7 January 1426, he was summoned to the House of Lords whereby he was created Baron Tiptoft.

Marriage and progeny
John Tiptoft married twice, leaving progeny by his 2nd marriage only:
 * Firstly, before 24 February 1408, to a widow, Philippa Talbot (c. 1367–1417), daughter of Sir John Talbot, of Richard's Castle, Herefordshire. They had no issue.
 * He married secondly, by royal licence dated 28 February 1422, to Joyce Charleton (c. 1404–1446), the younger daughter and co-heiress of Edward Charleton, 5th Baron Cherleton by his first wife Eleanor Holland. By Joyce Charleton he had the following children:
 * John Tiptoft, 1st Earl of Worcester (1427–1470), whose only son Edward Tiptoft, 2nd Earl of Worcester died in 1485, a minor without issue.
 * Philippa Tiptoft (c. 1423 – after January 1487), married Thomas de Ros, 9th Baron de Ros (1427–1464).
 * Joanna Tiptoft (c. 1425 – 1494), married, in 1435, Sir Edmund Ingoldsthorpe (c. 1421 – 1456), of Burgh Green, Cambridgeshire.
 * Joyce Tiptoft (aft. 1425 – c. 1470 ), married Sir Edmund Sutton.

Death and burial
Sir John, 1st Lord Tiptoft, was buried at Enfield in Middlesex, early in February 1443. His widow, Joyce (or Joice), was buried in St Andrew's Church, Enfield Town, c. 1446.
