User talk:Wendy Wendy

= Greetings! Tell me what you think! =

wendy can you upload a picture of yourself on your wiki page that shows your face?
I can't imagine why you would cover it with a hat. Is there a specific reason?

Mysekurity: Welcome
Is this the famous Wendy from the Darwin Awards? At Wikipedia??!?! Whoah... Umm... I don't really know what to say, but Welcome! Enjoy your time here, and keep up the amazing books (Lawnchair Larry is always a favorite, as is the guy who cut you off and smashed into the fire truck). In any event, enjoy! - Mys  e  kurity ( have you seen this? ) 18:21, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Wendy to Mysekurity: "I liked your confession, "I'm a habitual comma user, stop me before I comma again." Yes, I'm "the" Wendy Northcutt!  Why is your "e" green?  And do you suggest the "Semi-protection policy" page, because of what you've seen on the Darwin Awards page?  I've noticed some "sour grapes" kind of posts, but overall I'm pretty happy with the Darwin Awards description." Wendy Wendy 06:09, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Wow! Ta muchly for granting us your presence
As I might have just figured out from the previous posts, you are the Wendy Northcutt. Wooo! Thanks for gracing us with your existence here, and I'm glad you like what we're all doing. Darwin Awards is a legend - you should try and get a userbox made saying 'This user cracks up at the Darwin Awards' or something similar. I'd certainly have it on my userpage. I'm very glad I've had a chance to get as near as I ever will to meeting the creator of one of the most entertaining factual (well mostly) books in the world. I hope it continues to succeed. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫  ξ  φ   16:33, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Wendy to Vanderdecken: "Hi Vanderdecken, thanks so much for your friendly hello. I looked into UserBoxes and it looked complicated.  I'd like to add UserBox 42 to my webpage.  If you create a UserBox for me, I'll use it!  Best wishes for a long and healthy life!"

Hi
Hi, Wendy. Welcome to Wikipedia. I believe we have a mutual friend. Friday (talk) 17:32, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Heh. I wasn't trying to be mysterious, I assumed you'd already been told about me by a certain longwinded communist hippie.  It's possible I'd be able to help out with your programming situation, at least with some ideas, if not lots of coding.   Friday (talk) 15:19, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Wendy to Friday: "Ohhh him, yes, indeed we do! <3 He's a sweetie."

Hey
Are you really the dude who makes the Darwin Awards? If so, you look different than I thought. I thought you would be some middle-aged dude who is a geek, but you're hot!!!
 * Wendy to Hey: "Hey yourself, Smartyshoe! Thanks for the compliment; next time, sign your post with four tilda's so I know who is so hot for me: Ms.Darwin, the non-geek non-dude behind the Darwin Awards." Wendy Wendy 01:33, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
 * WHatever (in case you haven't noticed, that's my catch phrase for whenever I feel compelled to reply but don't know what to say Smartyshoe 20:16, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

UserBox Created!
Hi, Wendy! I created a userbox for the Darwin Awards. In case you don't know, a userbox is a small coloured box which contains a small message, so that other users can see your interests and which articles you edit. To add the userbox to your userpage, type. ISD 10:50, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Thank you so much, ISD, my dear! Wendy Wendy 02:12, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

you called me "some idiot"
What controversial snippets?I don't remember exactly how I edited it but it was about the Holocaust. Is that such a controversial thing? Why couldn't that be fascinating too? You aren't too nice.Rich 22:15, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Image:DarwinAwards_TreeBranch.jpg
Hi Wendy Wendy - on the page for the image above you seem to be trying to limit the use to pages connected with the Darwin Awards. under the GFDL you can not limit use in this fashion. Could decide whether or not you want to release the image under the GFDL and either remove the wording on the page to clear up the confusion or replace the licensing tag with one you are prepared to release the image under? Thanks. -- SiobhanHansa 17:26, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

 * PS I also just noticed you stuck a GFDL license on your Darwin Awards logo image. Are you sure you want to release your site's logo under the GFDL?  I believe that would pretty much allow any other person who wanted to to use the logo where ever they wished, including on copy-cat sites or books, and to make any adaptions to it they wanted to.  This is not something most people want to do with their logos.  Obviously you are welcome to release the image, I just want to make sure this is really what you intend. -- SiobhanHansa 17:36, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi Wendy Wendy, Wikipedia basically doesn't allow you to grant permission that limits where and how images can be used. It requires any permission to be under a copyleft type of license. (Wikimedia Foundation's explicit mission is to increase the amount of copyleft material so this is not entirely surprising). Images like the logo can be used under fair use rules - that is Wikimedia is not asking your permission to use it, they are taking (as it were) the rights granted to anyone under case law and the first amendment (I think that's it - not exactly a lawyer here myself!) to use any image under particular circumstances. This means that they will only use such an image in circumstances where they believe they would be legally able to regardless of the copyright holders views on the use (and in fact use is limited by policy even further than that on en.Wikipedia in an attempt to encourage people to produce more copyleft images).

I see you've reverted the permission you granted - that's good if it's not what you intended. You should also add the Non-free logo template back onto the logo page as that makes it clear the image is copyrighted - this is important for other people to know. The image can continue to be used in circumstances where a fair use rationale can be made - such as to illustrate your website.

For the tree branch image - if you're not prepared to offer that under a copyleft license I don't see any circumstances in which a fair use rationale could be made for it - you should probably put a db-author tag on the page. At the moment the page still says that you grant permission under the GFDL.

Hope that makes some sense. If you want you can confirm this and possibly get better advice at the Media_copyright_questions. -- SiobhanHansa 17:58, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Saul Friedländer

Saul Friedländer (שאול פרידלנדר; born October 11, 1932) is a Czech-Jewish-born historian and a professor emeritus of history at UCLA.

Biography
Saul Friedländer was born in Prague to a family of German-speaking Jews. He was raised in France and lived through the German Occupation of 1940–1944. From 1942 until 1946, Friedländer was hidden in a Catholic boarding school in Montluçon, near Vichy. While in hiding, he converted to Roman Catholicism and later began preparing for the Catholic priesthood. His parents attempted to flee to Switzerland, were arrested instead by Vichy French gendarmes, turned over to the Germans and were gassed at the Auschwitz concentration camp. Friedländer did not learn the fate of his parents until 1946.

After 1946, Friedländer grew more conscious of his Jewish identity and became a Zionist. In 1948, Friedländer immigrated to Israel on the Irgun ship Altalena. After finishing high school, he served in the Israel Defense Forces. From 1953 to 1955, he studied political science in Paris.

Zionist and political career
Friedländer served as secretary to Nachum Goldman, then President of the World Zionist Organization and the World Jewish Congress. In 1959, he became an assistant to Shimon Peres, then vice-minister of defense. Late in the 1980s, Friedländer moved to the political left and was active in the Peace Now group.

Academic career
In 1963, he received his PhD from the Graduate Institute of International Studies in Geneva, where he taught until 1988. Friedländer taught at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and at Tel Aviv University. In 1969 he wrote a biography of repentant SS officer Kurt Gerstein. In 1988, he became Professor of History at the University of California, Los Angeles.

In 1998, Friedländer chaired the Independent Historical Commission (IHC) that was appointed to investigate the activities of the German media company Bertelsmann under the Third Reich. The 800-page report, Bertelsmann im Dritten Reich, written with Norbert Frei, Trutz Rendtorff and Reinhard Wittmann, was published in October 2002. It confirmed the findings, first reported by Hersch Fischler in The Nation, that Bertelsmann collaborated with the Nazi regime before and during World War II. Bertelsmann subsequently expressed regret "for its conduct under the Nazis, and for later efforts to cover it up".

Views and opinions
Friedländer sees Nazism as the negation of all life and a type of death cult. He argues that the Holocaust was such a horrific event that it is almost impossible to express in normal language. Friedländer sees the antisemitism of the Nazi Party as unique in history, since he maintains that Nazi antisemitism was distinctive for being "redemptive anti-semitism", namely a form of antisemitism that could explain all in the world and offer a form of "redemption" for the antisemite.

Friedländer is an Intentionalist on the question of the origins of the Holocaust. However, Friedländer rejects the extreme Intentionalist view that Adolf Hitler had a master plan for the genocide of the Jewish people originating when he wrote Mein Kampf. Friedländer, through his research on the Third Reich, has reached the conclusion that there was no intention to exterminate the Jews of Europe before 1941. Friedländer's position might best be deemed moderate Intentionalist.

In the 1980s, Friedländer engaged in a spirited debate with the West German historian Martin Broszat over his call for the "historicization" of Nazi Germany. In Friedländer's view, Nazi Germany was not and cannot be seen as a normal period of history. Friedländer argued that there were three dilemmas, and three problems involved in the "historicization" of the Third Reich.

The first dilemma was that of historical periodization, and how long-term social changes could be related to an understanding of the Nazi period. Friedländer argued that focusing on long-term social changes such as the growth of the welfare state from the Imperial to Weimar to the Nazi eras to the present as Broszat suggested changed the focus on historical research from the particular of the Nazi era to the general longue durée (long term) view of 20th-century German history. Friedländer felt that "relative relevance" of the growth of the welfare state under the Third Reich, and its relationship to post-war developments would cause historians to lose their attention to the genocidal politics of the Nazi state. The second dilemma Friedländer felt that by treating the Nazi period as a "normal" period of history, and by examining the aspects of "normality" might run the danger of causing historians to lose interest in the "criminality" of the Nazi era. This was especially problematic for Friedländer because he contended that aspects of "normality" and "criminality" very much overlapped in the everyday life of Nazi Germany. The third dilemma involved what Friedländer considered the vague definition of "historicization" entailed, and it might allow historians to advance apologetic arguments about National Socialism such as those Friedländer accused Ernst Nolte and Andreas Hillgruber of making.

Friedländer conceded that Broszat was not an apologist for Nazi Germany like Nolte and Hillgruber. Friedländer noted that though the concept of "historicization" was highly awkward, partly because it opened the door to the type of arguments that Nolte and Hillgruber advanced during the Historikerstreit, Broszat's motives in calling for the "historicization" were honourable. Friedländer used the example of a longue durée view of Italian history had allowed historians like Renzo De Felice to seek to rehabilitate Mussolini as a modernizing dictator trying to pull Italy up from underdevelopment; and argued that a similar approach to German history would have the same effect with Hitler. Friedländer maintained the comparison of Nazi Germany with Fascist Italy as modernizing dictatorships did not work because Fascist Italy according to him did not commit genocide (although the extermination of Slavs in Italian concentration camps was well on the way), and he argued that it was genocide that made the Third Reich unique. Friedländer felt that Broszat's longue durée view of German history with stress on the continuities – many of them positive – between different eras would diminish the Holocaust down as an object of study.

The first problem for Friedländer was that the Nazi era was too recent and fresh in the popular memory for historians to deal with it as a "normal" period as, for example, 16th-century France. The second problem was the "differential relevance" of "historicization". Friedländer argued that the study of the Nazi period was "global", that is it belongs to everyone, and that focusing on everyday life was a particular interest for German historians. Friedländer asserted that for non-Germans, the history of Nazi ideology in practice, especially in regards to war and genocide was vastly more important than Alltagsgeschichte ("history of everyday life"). The third problem for Friedländer was that the Nazi period was so unique that it could not easily be fitted into the long-range view of German history as advocated by Broszat. Friedländer maintained that the essence of National Socialism was that it "tried to determine who should and should not inhabit the world", and the genocidal politics of the Nazi regime resisted any attempt to integrate it as part of the "normal" development of the modern world. The debates between Broszat and Friedländer were conducted through a series of letters between 1987 until Broszat's death in 1989. In 1990, the Broszat–Friedländer correspondences were translated into English, and published in the book Reworking the Past: Hitler, The Holocaust, and the Historians' Debate edited by Peter Baldwin.

Friedländer's book, Nazi Germany and the Jews (1997) was written as a reply to Broszat's work. The second volume, The Years of Extermination: Nazi Germany and the Jews, 1939–1945 appeared in 2007. Friedländer's book is Alltagsgeschichte, not of "Aryan" Germans nor of the Jewish community, but rather an Alltagsgeschichte of the persecution of the Jewish community.

Talk:Reichsmark

No, even though it was used during the National Socialist (Nazi) period, it's use preceded Hitler and survived him until 1948. The reason it was replaced in a currency reform was to stabalize the (West) German economy as the Soviets had printing plates for the Reichmark as well as the Allied forces. The Russians printed as many Reichmarks as they needed without regard of the post war German economy. The three Allied occupiers of the west German occupation zones wanted to stabalize the economy and thus started issuing the new currency named the "Deutschemark" --81.159.178.193 15:49, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

should something be in here about hitler? maybe that's why it's not used anymore

(One US trillion to one, or one European billion to one). What does this mean, I thought in english its 1 billion and german Milliarden as 1 million in german is millionen. Enlil Ninlil 09:51, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Perhaps Hitler was not the primary factor reichsmark was repalced. Reichsmark existed long before Hitler came to power, and the reason for replacement is written at and . 1012 is written "trillion" in modern English (both American and British), a.k.a the short scale, while the same number is written as derivatives of "billion" in other European languages, a.k.a. the long scale. --Chochopk 10:17, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

War period
What replaced the 1 and 2 RM coins between 1940-45?, was it the 1 and 2 renenmark notes or another! And in 1945 was the 50 reichspfennig withdrawn and replaced with banknotesnotes. Also was there a lower denominations than 50 rpf in occupied Russia and the baltic states? Enlil Ninlil 05:28, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

English translation
I believe Reichsmark should be translated as Imperial Mark, and not Realm Mark, although Reich can mean realm, it can also, and in this case I believe it does, mean Empire. I wanted to post this here before actually changing it myself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.35.65.211 (talk) 09:54, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

 * I dont believe so, as the currency name itself was the Reichsmark and not Reichs Mark, As is the case with the Angolan Novokwanza. Enlil Ninlil 09:18, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Reich does not mean Empire, as is clear from the fact that the Reichsmark was introduced during the Weimar Republic, which continued to use the name "Deutsches Reich" for the country. Empire is Kaiserreich. Dove1950 15:12, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

 * This is the very first time I've ever seen anyone display an itch to translate the term Reichsmark, and not surprisingly the outcome is a dog's dinner. There are many currencies that, by hook or by crook, could be translated, but people generally have the sense not even to try. Norvo 01:22, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

German gold standard
The article currently states that the Reichsmark was put on the gold standard but then does not specify how much gold was it to be valued at, instead naming a fixed US dollar conversion. That's a currency peg, not a gold standard. The US changed the value of the dollar in 1934. So did the value of the RM change or not? How much gold was the reichsmark worth over time? The introduction of base metal coins tells me that the gold value of the RM was reducing over time. What was it and when? This article seems to be missing or misstating a number of core facts about the life of this currency during the Hitler years.

Update: Nobody seems to be watching this article so I'll at least do a rough cut to flesh out the economic facts, the financial trickery that was the German "economic miracle" under Hitler and how inflation in the real economy was avoided for a time. TMLutas (talk) 18:19, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Photos on the article
I have looked through the Category:Reichsmark coins of the Third Reich on Wikimedia Commons and have found some very nice photos of coins. It seems that some of the coin photos on this Wiki of WWII coins are grainy and blurry. On the contrary, there are a few photos of WWII coins on the Wikimedia page that are much nicer and may be a nice replacement?... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Otto1943 (talk • contribs) 00:26, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Great Depression
I removed the section in "History" about the Great Depression. The section read as follows: "As the market crash of 1929 expanded into the Great Depression, Germany was forced to effectively take the Reichsmark off the gold standard when it imposed exchange controls in July 1931. It retained a gold peg at that time. Hyper inflation ensued to the point it was cheaper to burn reichsmark paper notes than to buy fire wood. The hyper inflation and high rate of unemployment was one reason that allowed the National Socialistic Party to secure power culminating in the appointment of Member of the Reichstag Adolf Hitler as Fuhrer in 1933." This is factually wrong. The hyperinflation occured in 1922 as a result of war reparations after WWII. The problem was fixed with the Rentenmark in 1923 and the Reichsmark was only introduced in 1924. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Qxentio (talk • contribs) 08:01, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Also factually wrong. It couldn't have been after WWII as that ended much later. It was after the Great War. 194.207.86.26 (talk) 09:57, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

Removal of unsourced material
I am going to go ahead and remove a large section someone placed at the beginning of this article as it's completely unsourced and makes dubious claims. I will provide an opportunity for anyone interested to find sources for this material if they are able. --1.159.4.242 (talk) 06:17, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I think it's better that this material be merged with the corresponding article on NSDAP economics, it's valuable content and I suspect it's an extract copy-pasted from another article where the citation is probably to be found. I'm doing a general clean up and will probably find it.--124.182.197.81 (talk) 15:51, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Moving content to relevant pages
A number of separate currencies used at the same time as the Reichsmark have been merged with this page and this has caused a lot of confusion.

Lagergeld was from what I gather a work token issued internally in prison/concentration camps, it's not related to the reichsmark nor was it in general circulation. It should go into the pages of the prison/concentration camps where it was used so as not to confuse readers.

In finance "dummy currency expansion" is typically referred to as "expansionist monetary policy" in English. Again this will clear up confusion. I can see why these were added but I think simply noting the Nazi policy and linking to the relevant pages is sufficient for those interested in finance. nobody wants the entire nazi fiscal policy history doubled up on this page, which I imagine is mainly used by coin collectors.

Happy to hear from other editors, I'm just cleaning up finance pages --124.182.197.81 (talk) 16:13, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Page vandalism
It seems a user here keeps vandalizing the page by adding “Reichtangle,” a meme from the Polandball community, as a user of the Reichsmark. Please watch out for further edits like that, thank you. Arkadelaide (talk) 06:35, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

Rotate left or right, it's just not right!
Considering the Reichsmark was in circulation from 1924 (a whole nine years before the "austran painter" took power), would it be possible to use "non-Third" Reich marks (i.e. Weimar era coin and banknote) photos at the very start of the article? The "sun wheel" being put into our face so ominously just serves to deter many upright people from reading the article. Shock value is not something an encyclopaedia should aim for. Etomcat (talk) 23:41, 25 December 2022 (UTC)

Inflation adjustment
I've wrestled a bit with the topic of how to perform inflation adjustment on values quoted in RM. I've found three "correct" approaches and I've listed the wiki code below. As with other uses of the inflation template, these only apply to consumer goods and not capital expenditures, and the results are intended to orient the reader rather than truly provide mathematical precision.

The Reichsmark was introduced at the end of hyperinflation in 1924 and circulated through the first half of 1948. This time included the Great Depression, World War II, and the military occupation of Germany, during which allied-issued money and cigarettes (for black market goods) also were in use. The switch to West and East German Marks (and from East to West) used a 1:1 rate for wages, rents, etc., but with a less favorable rate for converting savings. (It appears Template:Inflation/DE/dataset uses 1:1). Changing from DEM>EUR was done at a rate of 1:.

The Deutsche Bundesbank offers this table with purchasing power equivalents between RM and Euro. One could also convert the amount to a postwar value (e.g. 1950), and apply the inflation template and D-Mark conversion there. They caution that many of the conversions are imprecise, as the inflation figures are based on consumer prices that were set by the government, even if few goods were available at the official prices and actual (black market) prices could vary wildly. Out of the three, I trust the Bundesbank the most, even though (or rather, because) they emphasize the inherent uncertainty of such an undertaking, particularly for the years of upheaval.

To convert in 1931:
 * Directly using the Convert template:
 * (equivalent to €0 in )
 * (equivalent to €0 in )
 * Using the 1930s RM/USD gold standard fixed exchange rate and USD inflation:
 * In 1931, the Reichsmark was fixed at an exchange rate of per U.S. dollar, making  equal to $47,600.
 * The Bundesbank table above indicates for 1931 that each Reichsmark is worth €4.40 in 2022. (You should include the link above as a citation.)
 * (equivalent to €0 in 2022)
 * (equivalent to €0 in 2022)
 * (equivalent to €0 in 2022)

For the Inflation template, I tried applying the DM>EUR conversion (" / "), but the result is then much lower than either of the other two. In the interest of accuracy over precision, I left it out.

I hope this helps.-Ich (talk) 20:30, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

Barsaat (2005 film)

Barsaat (lit. 'Rain') is a 2005 Indian Hindi-language romantic drama film directed by Suneel Darshan. It stars Bobby Deol, Priyanka Chopra, and Bipasha Basu. The plot of the movie is loosely based on the 2002 movie Sweet Home Alabama. Deol also previously acted in a 1995 film of the same name, which was his debut film.

Plot
Aarav is an ambitious young Indian whose dream is to design cars. He travels to the United States seeking greener pastures, where he meets the beautiful Anna, a firm believer in destiny. Anna instantly goes head over heels for Aarav, but Aarav remains focused on his career. Over time, he mellows and the two fall in love. Moreover, Aarav's ambitions go on the upswing as the chairman of a major auto company in the U.S. gives him a job as a designer.

Coincidentally, the chairman happens to be Anna's grandfather, and after he finds out about Aarav and Anna's relationship he happily announces their betrothal. Aarav, who wants to marry Anna, tells her he has to go back to India to tend to his sickly father, but actually returns intent on securing a divorce from his childhood sweetheart, Kajal, whom he hadn't seen for three years. Aarav had been forced by his parents to marry Kajal and had left for the United States on their wedding night and they never consummated their marriage.

After finding out about Aarav's plans, Kajal tries her best to win him back. She yields, however, when Aarav tells her he is in love with another woman and doesn't love Kajal. After having Kajal sign the divorce papers Aarav submits them to his lawyer. Kajal, who had been living with Aarav's parents, moves out of their house. Feeling guilty, Aarav, who had previously been avoiding Kajal, spends some time with her. He tries to help her financially, but finds out that Kajal has started a thriving export company for locally made sari's. She's also has become fluent in English. Aarav realises that there is more to Kajal than he knows of. The two spend the day reliving various childhood memories and Aarav starts feeling attracted towards her again.

Meanwhile, Anna arrives in India. Her grandfather had decided that, since Aarav was already in India, their marriage should also take place there. Aarav tells Anna about Kajal. She quickly forgives him and he introduces her to Kajal. Anna privately asks Kajal if she feels that Anna stole Aarav away from her. Kajal tells Anna not to worry and that Aarav never really loved her and that their marriage was just an agreement between two families. Anna is impressed by Kajal's independence and the two become friends. Kajal decides that she will attend Aarav's wedding in order to give her love a proper "funeral".

Kajal asks Anna to wear her old wedding jewellery and helps her get dressed but Kajal flees the wedding premises shortly after the wedding rituals begin, unable to bear the sight of Aarav marrying someone else. However, Aarav's lawyer interrupts the wedding and informs Aarav that he is not divorced yet because he forgot to sign the divorce papers himself. If Aarav signs the papers right there, his divorce will be final and he'll be able to marry Anna. However, Aarav finds himself unable to sign the papers, realising that he does love Kajal. It suddenly starts raining.

Anna senses that Aarav loves Kajal and also knows that Kajal still loves Aarav. She tells Aarav that the rain is a sign that he should not get a divorce and reasons that, had he not met Anna, Aarav never would have realised that he loved Kajal. Anna tells him to go back to Kajal. Anna's grandfather threatens to ruin Aarav's career, but Anna tells him that he shouldn't do that and that she knows Aarav loves her, but that "he just loves Kajal a little more". According to her, Aarav is destined to be with Kajal.

Aarav finds Kajal in the place where they used to play when they were kids and tells her that he loved her the whole time. He just didn't realise it. They kiss and get back together. Anna happily watches them and leaves to return to the United States.

Talk:Crypt of Civilization

Untitled
I'm just being curious about one thing that I couldn't find anywhere on the Crypt's website, how is it supposed to only be opened in 8113? Because it seems that the purpose is written somewhere, but, it seems that basically nothing prevents it from being opened anytime before, right?

 * Technically, you're correct. *Any* time capsule could be opened at any time before the date the capsule's creators have specified.  But the reason the Crypt's creators selected 8113 as the opening date for the Crypt was because they figured that if the Crypt was created at 4000-some years after the beginning of historical fixed date recording  and what the Crypt represents is everything that has been achieved up to that point -- then why not have the Crypt be opened 4000 years later?  That would place the Crypt chronologically at the half-way point on the gigantic master timeline.   This point is addressed on both the Crypt's official site as well as here in the Wiki article.OUPetey 16:58, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Spacing between sentences
Any particular reason for the extra spacing between sentences and paragraphs? Should it not be single space?--Doug Coldwell talk 23:37, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

When was the crypt sealed?
When was the crypt sealed? This should be stated explicitly in the first paragraph. One part of the article states that the crypt was converted from a swimming pool to a storage space between 1937 and 1940, but a later section states that the crypt was sealed in 1936. J. Finkelstein (talk) 17:44, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
 * The article has been corrected to 1940 as the sealing date.--Doug Coldwell talk 18:23, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

 * I agree, the sealing date is an interesting and key information that should be in the first paragraph. -- vd — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.230.185.227 (talk) 13:49, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

Thornwell Jacobs made a mistake in the calculation
There was no 0 year between 1 BC and 1 AD. It means that there is a period in 6176 years between 4241 BC and 1936 AD. Therefore, 6176 years since 1936 AD is 8112 AD. Nicolas Love (talk) 18:23, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Lindley. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Lindley~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 01:21, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information.

Chiropractic
I am highly surprised at your assertion that chiropractic has been proven and that's why you removed the NPOV tag. Clearly you failed to read the article or the talk page and understand that there is little scientific evidence for its efficacy. Please read the article and talk page before removing tags next time.

All the cool kids have discussion pages, so I'm going to give into peer pressure and have one, too!

Question
This is SportsMasterESPN, I noticed you used to work on Yahoo! Groups. I have a few questions for you. Is there anyway I could talk to you online?
 * Sorry, no (I don't use Messenger or anything like that). You can email me at my user name at mac.com. Stev0 22:25, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Early web history
Steve, I know we've gotten onto different sides on some of the recent AfD disputes about websites (and I wish you'd stop calling people meatpuppets), and I'm sorry about that, but some of us are trying to turn that into something constructive with WikiProject Early Web History, and as the former Useless Pages guy you could really contribute. Are you opposed to potentially having an article about the Useless Pages? Would you be willing to contribute some info? And of course, any other knowledge about the pre-1995 web you would be willing to share would be most welcome. Please check in at the project if you're willing. Hope to see you there.  · rodii  ·  17:27, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Articles for deletion/How to Make a Sprite Comic in Eight Easy Bits
I'm not sure if it matters or whether it will influence your vote, but if you take a look at "eight easy bits" on Google now, it only gives back 45 unique hits and about 300 in total. The reason for the high amount of links beforehand was because Google was indexing roughly 3000 links for a forum user with "eight easy bits" in his signiture. I do disagree with the synopsis that being launched in 2003 makes for a long running webcomic, it has only managed 97 strips and if you look at List of webcomics, you'll find many more webcomics which have lasted much longer. - Hahnchen 22:14, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually, the List of webcomics convinced me even more to keep the article. I have not heard of 99.9% of those comics, and I'm not about to go through that whole list to figure out which ones I hadn't heard of are notable or not. Stev0 22:26, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
 * No worries, I've not heard of 99.9% of them either, but just felt that many had lasted for longer. - Hahnchen 22:29, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Norwich, Massachusetts
My only concern is that folks can easily identify the town of Norwich and find its history, since there are many genealogical and historical references to Norwich. A true merger might help, yes...but with "Norwich" retained as a redirect to Huntington. Mel 05:05, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

CfD boilerplate
Why did you delete the daily nominations section? Why didn't you read the instructions?

No, it's not. It has a different page layout. Different instructions. Different rules. AfD is similar to MfD, CfD is almost identical to TfD, and RfD is like they were 3 years ago.... Anyway, please read instructions. Use the subst:templates, instead of making it up as you go. Thanks.

External Linking
Hey, I got your message. My apologies. Of course I'm trying to promote the site that I maintain however, the links I posted (I felt) pretained to the articles that I had linked them to. I've looked further at Wikipedia's NPOV policies and I see now that some of the links were not in line with this site's goals. However, some of the links on the site that I work for are truly relevant to these articles, non-biased and objective, and I will make further efforts to get these linked. Not just for means of self promotion but because they are relevant. Of course I will go through the proper channels from now on as well as work to add new content my own self, and overall to be a more responsible Wikipedia...er. Thanks for the heads up. --DMTayag 14:59, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

How was this vandalism reversion
Hi Stev0. I'm wondering how this revert was vandalism reversion. Granted, it was unsourced, but vandalistic? I don't think so. Why did you revert it as such? Picaroon9288 03:18, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Every other edit that user made was vandalism. I couldn't find any information that confirmed what they said in Google, so it's safe to assume it was vandalism, too.  If you can find information that confirms what they put in, feel free to put it back in.  Stev0 03:51, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Discography link = Spam?
Hi, I noticed you reverted a lot of musicbrainz links. In case you don't agree with linking to discographies you should perhaps voice your opinions here instead: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject MusicBrainz —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dalen (talk • contribs) 13:38, 19 March 2007 (UTC).
 * A couple of days after I deleted the links, I actually looked at MusicBrainz. If someone wants to re-revert the pages, go for it; however, when a single user edits a lot of pages with nothing but adding a link to pages off a web site, I automatically assume it's spam.  99.9% of the time I'm right; arguably this is that 0.1% time where it's not. Stev0 23:47, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Ok, true. Well, I noticed the link on several Artist pages but it was also missing on quite a few, so added it to them at the same time...--Dalen 09:39, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * You didn't do anything wrong. However, at the time I didn't do anything wrong, either (fighting spam is one of my highest priorities).  If you want to re-add them, I promise I won't delete them (now that I know what MusicBrainz is - I did look at it before I went on my delete spree, and to be honest I wasn't impressed at all; however, I can see how it has potential); however, you might want to make a note somewhere so the next person that sees you adding nothing but a bunch of links to the same site at the same time doesn't delete them again.

Fair use rationale for Image:Wuthering_Heights_Single.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Wuthering_Heights_Single.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk  02:29, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:13, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

In this side you show only the catholic church but you must know that beside this church and beside the same place ,it is a beautiful greek orthodox church, place for pray and silence —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joseflittman (talk • contribs) 7 February 2007

Wouldn't the name of the village also be in Aramaic?
Wouldn't the name of the city be in Aramaic? The two languages are mutually intelligible and the name is noted for being a general phrase ("village of comfort") and not based on the prophet from the Hebrew scriptures. The only writing from the early eras mentioned here is in the synagogue, where the inscription is in Greek and Aramaic. This seems to imply anyone who would read it would know one of those two languages, so wouldn't the name of the village have meaning in Aramaic? The Hebrew word for village (כפר), which is a part of the name Capernaum, is even said to derive from the Aramaic word (כַּפְרָא) on Wiktionary. Bagabondo (talk) 06:51, 26 June 2021 (UTC)

Disputed accuracy of "village of comfort" as the meaning of the name
As said above, the word "Kfar" (כפר) means "village". On the other hand, I could not find any source to verify that "Naḥum" (נחום) means "comfort".

 * I'm a native Hebrew speaker (negligible)
 * This interpretation is not in the matching Hebrew article: https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%9B%D7%A4%D7%A8_%D7%A0%D7%97%D7%95%D7%9D
 * Or the Hebrew Wiktionary article "נחום": https://he.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D7%A0%D7%97%D7%95%D7%9D
 * Or the English one: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Nahum

The Academy of the Hebrew Language also agreed with me, in the email below (translated).

It's possible this is a mistranslation from the word Nohut (נוחות), meaning comfort, as in comfortable.

Also, "to comfort" and "to console" are both valid translations of the word לנחם, who's matching noun(?) is Nihum, also written נחום just like Nahum. Perhaps rather than being translated to "consolation" it was translated to "comfort".

email:

Greetings,

We are not familiar with this interpretation, and it's also not likely. The name biblical name Nahum is usually attributed to the root נ.ח.ם, meaning to console or alleviate grief, as in the words לנחם, נחמה etc. and there is no reason the "Nahum" component in the name of the village would be of a different origin (unless there is other evidence relating to its etymology, which to our knowledge there isn't).

Best regards,

תשובה – משמעות המילה "נחום" כ"נוחות" [#159153]

שלום רב,

המשמעות הזאת איננה מוכרת לנו, וגם איננה מסתברת כל כך. את השם המקראי נחום מקובל לשייך לשורש נח'ם שעניינו עידוד והקלה של צער כבמילים לנחם, נחמה ועוד, ואין סיבה שהרכיב 'נחום' בשם המקום יהיה שונה מזה במקורו (אלא אם כן יש עדויות אחרות בעניין גיזרונו, ולמיטב ידיעתי אין).

בברכה,

תמר קציר

המזכירות המדעית, האקדמיה ללשון העברית

תוכן הפנייה:

אקדמיה נפלאה שלום, קראתי היום את ערך הויקיפדיה באנגלית על "כפר נחום": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capernaum בתחילת החלק Toponymy נאמר שמשמעות השם "כפר נחום" בעברית היא "כפר הנוחות". אין ציון של זה בערך ויקיפדיה בעברית, ולא הצלחתי למצוא באינטרנט פירוש של המילה "נחום" כ"נוחות" (או ככל דבר שאינו הדמות התנ"כית). האם מוכרת לכם המשמעות הזו? תודה רבה!

Globnork (talk) 19:49, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Not part of any modern "village"
See discussion at Talk:Al-Samakiyya. Distinction: "tribal area" is fundamentally different from "village".

Kfar Nahum/Capernaum was abandoned in the 11th c. No village was ever reestablished at the site, none that could have been "depopulated" in 48. The as-Samakiyya tribal area (not the as-Samakiyya village!) had a total population of 330 Muslims shortly before 48, that was all, and the hamlet ("village") was several 100 m away. The Franciscans had bought a piece of open land long before, with vaguely visible ancient ruins and nothing else on it, built one stone house there and excavated the rest. No village.

You may want to take a look at the welcome page, tutorial, and stylebook, avoiding common mistakes and Wikipedia is not pages.

Here are some links I've found useful:
 * Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Manual of Style
 * The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
 * Merge
 * New user log
 * Be Bold
 * Don't let grumpy users scare you off
 * Wikiquette
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * User page
 * How to upload files
 * Image copyright tags

Also: To sign comments on talk pages, simply type four tildes, like this: ~~~~. This will automatically add your username and the time after your comments. Signing with three tildes ~~~ will just sign your username. I hope to see you around Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on my talk page!
