H. (Honorio ) is a pseudonym used for several collaborative works by the Argentine writers Jorge Luis Borges and Adolfo Bioy Casares.
==Origin==
Bustos Domecq made his first appearance as F. (Francisco) Bustos, the pseudonym under which Borges, in 1933, published his first fictional story, now known as "Hombre de la esquina rosada", ("Man from the Pink Corner") but originally titled "Hombre de las orillas" ("Man from the Slums" or more literally "Man from the Outskirts"), Francisco Bustos being the name of "one forefather's forefather".
He changed his first initial and acquired a second surname (which in Argentina connotes either "old money" or simply, as in the rest of Latin America, the mother's maiden name) as Borges and Bioy Casares later used the pseudonym "H. Bustos Domecq" for some of their lighter works. According to Borges, Bustos was the name of one of his great-grandfathers, while Domecq was the name of one of Bioy's great-grandfathers.
==Works==
H. Bustos Domecq was the original credited author of the parodic detective stories in Seis problemas para don Isidro Parodi, 1942 (translated 1981 as Six Problems for Don Isidro Parodi) and Dos fantasías memorables, 1946 (Two noteworthy fantasies).
Bustos was also the alleged author of Crónicas de Bustos Domecq, 1967, (translated 1976 as Chronicles of Bustos Domecq), and Nuevos Cuentos de Bustos Domecq (1977), even though the authors' actual names were featured on the covers of both books.
Under another pseudonym, "Benito Suárez Lynch" (both surnames were taken from the authors' illustrious ancestors), Borges and Bioy published the parodic mystery Un modelo para la muerte (A model for death) in 1946, featuring the characters of the Isidro Parodi stories.
The pair also did some collaborations without the use of the pseudonym, notably two movie scripts from 1955: Los orilleros (Slum-dwellers) and El paraíso de los creyentes (The Paradise of Believers). Both dealt with the exacerbated sense of manhood among the compadritos in the slums of Buenos Aires circa 1900.
The Bustos Domecq materials provided comic relief for cultivated Latin Americans, but also, famously, conveyed a subtle yet unambiguous pro-allied message in the 1942 edition of Parodi – which was not a surprise for people who knew the authors but was, nevertheless, a contrarian statement given the state of Argentine politics at the time.
Note: The Isidro Parodi appears as Isidoro in some editions.
==Influence==
According to Emir Rodríguez Monegal in his April 1968 article "Nota sobre Biorges", when Adolfo Bioy Casares and Jorge Luis Borges collaborated under the pseudonyms H. Bustos Domecq or B. Suárez Lynch, the results seemed written by a new personality, more than the sum of its parts, which he dubbed "Biorges" and considered in his own right as "one of the most important Argentine prose writers of his time", for having influenced writers such as Leopoldo Marechal (an otherwise anti-Borgesian), or Julio Cortázar's use of fictional language and slang in his masterpiece Hopscotch.

A hook is a musical idea, often a short riff, passage, or phrase, that is used in popular music to make a song appealing and to "catch the ear of the listener". The term generally applies to popular music, especially rock music, , dance music, and pop. In these genres, the hook is often found in, or consists of, the chorus. A hook can, in general, be either melodic or rhythmic, and often incorporates the main motif for a piece of music.
For example, the "hook" of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony could be said to consist in the distinctive three G notes followed by an E-flat.
==Definitions==
One definition of a hook is "a musical or lyrical phrase that stands out and is easily remembered". Definitions typically include some of the following: that a hook is repetitive, attention-grabbing, memorable, easy to dance to, and has commercial potential and lyrics. A hook has been defined as a "part of a song, sometimes the title or key lyric line, that keeps recurring". Alternatively, the term has been defined as
While some melodic hooks include skips of a eigths or more to make the line more interesting, a hook can be equally catchy by employing rhythmic syncopation or other devices. A hook may also garner attention from listeners from other factors, such as the vocal timbre or instrumentation, as in the case of the Beach Boys' use of an unusual theremin-like instrument in "Good Vibrations". Some hooks become popular without using any unusual elements. For example, in the song "Be My Baby", performed by The Ronettes, the hook consists of the words "be my baby" over the conventional I-vi-IV-V chord progression of the chorus. Hooks in hip hop almost always refer to the chorus between verses.
==Use in market research==
The hooks of songs may be used in market research to assist in gauging the popularity of a song by the recognizability of its hook. Often radio stations conduct "call out" either on the Internet, via telephone, or a music test (either online or in an in-person setting) to conduct surveys. Stations may use the services of a professional "hook service" or prepare the materials themselves. Hooks used are typically seven to ten seconds long.

- Regarding your deletion of Mark Prindle's page: It was said in the deletion comments that if sufficient evidence could be shown that Prindle is a notable critic the page would be restored instantly. Is the fact that Pitchfork, in 2003, felt Prindle noteworthy enough to casually cite his opinion on a band in the Pitchfork review evidence? Pitchfork is a respected source for music journalism and even they recognize Prindle as an authority. http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/1270-out-of-reach/

== clinical trials, fda ==
I did a minor correction regarding ibogaine research. The phase 1 clinical trials have been re-started in 2005 at the U of M. They were halted due to lack of funds, not due to a fatality that took place in another country.
Trials restarted, Patrick K. Kroupa, University of Miami School of Medicine, "Ibogaine: Phase I Clinical Trials Restarted in 2005." discussing it at NYC ibogaine conference:
http://www.ibogaine.org/nyc2005.html
http://ibogaine.mindvox.com/News/2005COSM.html
Dr. Mash stating private funding arrived to media:
http://www.villagevoice.com/news/0508,hunter1,61311,6.html
Government approved research into ibogaine is alive and well in 2005.
The FDA doesn't fund clinical trials for anything, they are a regulatory agency that approves protocols.
Everything in the second to last paragraph following "The United States FDA briefly tested this drug in the early 1990's" is wrong. The FDA never tested or funded the drug, NIDA not the FDA, had interest in the drug's potential and then backed off. The FDA approved Dr. Mash's protocol which is still approved.
Ibogaine is a beta-carboline.
Please expand this information and put it in the article, if you are confident in its accuracy. 211.128.87.99 3 July 2005 23:41 (UTC)
Reverted last edits from anonymous, aside from creative spelling, Dr. Mash is not a "nuerobiologist" and the into contained was hearsay not fact, there have in fact been no new ibogaine publications from Mash for years and she is quoted as saying she will not publish for fear of being sued.
:Requests for a written statement from Dr. Mash or the University of Miami confirming clinical studies requsted to be presented during the NY 2006 Ibogaine conference were not forthcoming. On their part, researchers at Albany Medical College deny that 18-MC is in clinical studies. Therefore corrections to both of these assertions have been made to the text. (
== tryptamine?? ==
is ibogaine a tryptamine? i always thought they were in there own indole class, "iboganes". i dont think that they are tryptamines, as they don't have "tryptamine" in the chemical name . . .
yes, ibogaine is a tryptamine.
"Chemically, ibogaine is classified as a tryptamine, being a rigid analog of melatonin, and is structurally similar to harmaline, another natural alkaloid and psychedelic (Xu et al, 2000)."
from:
Freedlander, J. M. (2003). Ibogaine: a novel anti-addictive compound – a comprehensive
literature review (revised). Journal of Drug Education and Awareness, 1, 79–98.
http://userpages.umbc.edu/~jfreed1/Ibogaine.html
hi jon! literature usually classifies ibogaine as tryptamine. however, strictly speaking, that may be incorrect. in tryptamines the R alpha group may not just bind back to the 2nd nitrogen ring, as ibogain does (as User:Zinnmann told me, if i understood him correctly).
It is falsely classified as a tryptamine! Correct classifications are: indole alkaloid, iboga alkaloid and indoloazepine. It is also far from being a (tetrahydro)betacarboline. Melatonin is a tryptamide. Tryptamines possess an open (non-cyclized) side chain, at least this chain is not rebound at the indole nucleus.
== neurostuff ==
should be added that recent research suggests both rising of GDNF and channel-blocking of nicotinic receptors alpha3beta4 play major role in anti-addiction effects.
twgburst-It should also be noted that the anti-addictive properties of Ibogaine only work on less than 1/3 of the people that try it.
http://www.heroinhelper.com/sick/detox_nightmares_part_2.shtml
I would not be prone to believe everything I read. Ibogaine when treating opioid withdrawal can be counted on for 90% efficacy overall.
http://ibogaine.org/alperetal.html
== Are links from Buprenophine and Methadone relevant? ==
I listed ibogaine under the See Also section for Buprenorphine and Methadone on the Norwegian ('no') Wikipedia only to have the links promptly thrown out for being irrelevant to those two articles. As far as biochemistry is concerned, I agree, it is irrelevant, however, as an alternative substance-based treatment of opiod addiction I find it hard to understand the reasoning that rules ibogaine off-topic. I *do* understand why the pharmaceutical industry would rather not have their customers hear about ibogaine treatment, but can legitimate concerns prevent ibogaine from being mentioned as an alternative treatment on these pages? I'd like some feedback from users familiar with ibogaine about this, and of course also, about whether ibogaine should be mentioned on those pages here on the English WP? And I have not yet raised the issue on those or any other pages here. __meco
Buprenorphine, methadone and ibogaine are core treatments for opioid dependence, each with benefits and deficits. Ibogaine is used in the treatment of methadone and buprenorphine withdrawal or dose adjustment so it would appear that buprenorphine and methadone are certainly appropriate for the ibogaine article. You might want to take a look at the powerpoint presentaton concerning ibogaine development, science, politics, stigma and policy and includes comparative development sections of ibogaine, methadone and buprenorphine

Freaks, Geeks, and Asperger Syndrome: A User Guide to Adolescence is a non-fiction book about how it is like having a form of high functioning autism called Asperger Syndrome. The book was written by the then 13 year old Luke Jackson who has Asperger Syndrome himself. Luke wrote the book because he thought that there was not enough useful things on the internet about the subject.
The point of the book is to explain that is fine to be different. Luke goes through the problems that people with Asperger Syndrome face such as trouble reading facial expressions and body language. Luke Jackson lives in a family with three brothers and three sisters and his siblings have related difficulties as well.
==Reception==
David Worling of the Canadian Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry said that the book is filled with valuable information and is useful to have in a clinical library.
The book received first place in Times Educational Supplement awards in 2003 for special educational needs books.

The Coat of arms of South Australia is the official symbol of the state of South Australia. It was granted by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on 19 April 1984. They replaced a coat of arms granted to the State in 1936.
The shield has the Piping Shrike within a golden disc (officially said to represent the rising sun) on a blue background. The Piping Shrike is the unofficial bird emblem of South Australia and also appears on the State Badge. The crest is the Sturt's desert pea, the floral emblem of South Australia, on top of a wreath of the State colours. The coat of arms has no supporters. The compartment, or base, is a grassland with symbols of agriculture and industry, and a motto with the name "South Australia".

== Plenty of additional tests ==
There are plenty of additional tests of GR:
Pound-Rebka, which confirmed the existance of the gravitational red-shifing of light.
Haefele-Keating Experiment, which used atomic clocks in aircraft to test GR and SR together.
GPS, which was found to be inaccurate unless the effects of GR were taken into account.
See the USENET Relativity FAQ experiments page for more information of these and other relativity experiments.
also Gravity Probe B satellite recently launched, to detect "frame dragging". Should have enough data in a couple years. GangofOne
== MERGER OF PAGES ==
I think this page should be merged with classical tests of general relativity

== Precession of Mercury's perihelion ==
Numbers of 570 and 5600 seconds of arc per century are both correct, and they are quoted equally often. Mercury's perihelion precesses 574 seconds per century with respect to the inertial frame of the Sun. Earth's perihelion also precesses at much higher rate of approx. 5000 seconds per century in the opposite direction.
As a result, orbit of Mercury precesses 5600 seconds per century as seen from Earth.
The 5600 arc-seconds comes not from the Earth's orbital precession, but from its axial precession. Becuase of how the direction the axis of rotation points changes, the right ascension coordinates (which are stated in relationship to the position of the Sun at the vernal equinox) are changing. So the 5600 arc-seconds per century is mostly a coordinate precession.
I have been sitting on an update to the Mercury section that describes this. I will post it this weekend.
I already put a comment on the page of Mpatel about this - yes the 5000 sec/cy is due to the precession of the Earth's axis, which changes the Vernal Equinox relative to a celestial reference frame fixed in distant quasars (used to be fixed using stars). The Earth's perihelion is not used as a reference point for many reasons. One is that it is poorly determined, because the orbit is nearly circular. More importantly, it is a secondary quantity; the Earth's rotation axis and equatorial plane, which are used to find the Vernal equinox, are directly determinable by observing stars (for amateurs) and quasars (for the IERS). Because the axial precession is east to west, it adds into the perihelion precession of Mercury; it does not subtract.

This navigation template contains links to only two articles, and so is not justified at this time (I checked and articles about the others seem to not exist). The two articles do link to each other in the text, so deleting the template will not sever the connection between them. (Template creator not notified because: indef-blocked)

The result of the discussion was Keep. WOSlinker (talk)
This template convolutes notification that a user account has been blocked for contravention of the user name policy with a user name that ostensibly represents an organization, and a user warning about a conflict of interest. Multipurpose user talk templates have always been problematic, and that is why few, if any, exist within the scope of the User Warnings Project.
First, by blending these two issues, this template mixes process such that the blocked and warned user can confuse the reasons for the block and the subsequent process. The template presents the block reasons, then describes conflict of interest, then discusses process to appeal the block. This presentation could confuse a user into thinking that the conflct of interest is part of the reason for the block, when it actually is not. Possible consequences are that the user may mistakenly abandon a meritorious appeal of the user name block, or may unnecessarily or detrimentally, since irrelevant arguments often detract in the decision on appeal, address conflict of interest issues in appealing the block when they are actually not relevant.
Second, the text of the template indicates that its use is instead of an actual examination of whether a conflict of interest may exist. In contrast, the design of provides for its use after actually examining the user's edits and considering the types of articles edited, the user name, and other information about the user that may reveal a conflict of interest. The user then specifically identifies the relevant article in providing warning of a potential conflict of interest. Causeblock, however, provides information about conflict of interest only because the user name has been blocked, without any additional examination. While the information the template provides would be fine in a welcome/help template, guised in the dress of a block template, it becomes inappropriately declarative. Regardless, while I understand that the template was created to provide relevant information to users while being convenient for the the user applying it, it is inferior to the use of the separate template; small additional effort could determine whether a specific COI warning is indicated.
For these reasons, I propose the template be redirected to Uw-softerblock. I believe the template is effectively redundant with applying both and , or, even better, if appropriate. I hope that commenters in opposition will address specifically the sufficiency of these particular combinations as replacements for the template. Bsherr (talk)
Redirect to ; the two templates seem to effectively say the same thing, but softerblock is much less confusing to read, and doesn't drag in N for a tangential reason.
KeepThe original discussion that led to the creation of this back in May is at NOBLECAUSE-block template created? I don't see how this is confusing or unclear. Choosing a username that represents a group and then writing an article about that group shows a COI, and is in fact part of the reason for blocking such accounts. This was developed as a friendlier template to be used in this specific situation, and is now part of Twinkle's standard set of block notices. Why use two templates when we have one made just for this particular situation? Beeblebrox (talk)
Could you show where the template says explicitly that the COI is part of the reason for the block? Could you also show where the template states explicitly that the user wrote a conflicted article?
NOTE: This discussion has been cross-posted at UAA to alert UAA regulars to the potential change. Beeblebrox (talk)
Keep as per Beeblebrox. He put it better than I could state.
Keep: it does a good job of explaining why the user was blocked in terms of the username matching a company name, and the user's edits also being problematic: hopefully users who create accounts with different usernames after receiving this template will know to avoid the problematic editing in future, not just choose a more appropriate username. I don't see how it could be confusing. GiftigerWunsch
Well, I tried to explain what makes it confusing. It would be helpful to me if you could explain if you think the issues I identified are aren't important.
Keep - definite strong keep. A users intentions should be reflected in the tone of the block message. I use this template all the time. 7
Keep. Something like the message in this block notice is appropriate for some new accounts. You could make an argument that the language could be softer or harsher or that other links might be better, or that the language is "confusing and unclear", but those problems can be addressed by editing the template, at which point you'll see if your position has support. - Dank (push to talk)

OK, the template you mentioned for whatever reason is being redirected to Template:Infobox settlement. Let's figure what is the deal with that first and then we will see how it is actually redundant. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk)
I do not see how it is redundant. Raion and Oblast are administrative divisions and they are not settlement. Why are you redirecting everything there? Are you going to redirect state, province, or county there too? Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk)
has been a redirect to for over a year. The reason, as I understand it, is that there is considerable overlap between the information needed for political units of all sizes. Using a single template cuts the maintenance burden because enhancements and bug fixes automatically apply to all political units.

Comment. can now be used in category space and will do the same job as this template. There's no longer any reason to keep IMO, but a redirect is also an option. PC78 (talk)
Keep we can't just merge these, as it will significantly affect the wording/future of . Currently it's namespace-neutral, but any time someone wants to change it they'll have to maintain compatibility with categories and probably other namespaces as well. The "multiple namespaces" functionality refers to the template's ability to be placed on a talk page. It was never designed to work with categories. It seems illogical to bunch more functionality together, creating more complex wikicode that's harder to maintain when we can just specialize. This template shouldn't need a namespace-detector beyond "article-talk-other", and if we keep things simple and specialized, we can remove the more complex detector it currently has. There's no reason to bother with namespace-detection because editors should know which namespace they're editing. Why make the MW parser do extra work?
Addendum Someone is probably going to point out that we shouldn't worry about performance. I'm not worrying about performance, mostly. I'm mostly worried about making this template easy for us to maintain by keeping its wikicodebase small. A simple would be great, but since we need categories and such, it is reasonable to add more stuff. It isn't reasonable to add a namspace detector, however, because the editor already knows the namespace by the time he uses the template, so the template doesn't need to figure the namespace out on its own. Also, just because the developers tell you not to worry about performance doesn't mean you should immediately run and consume as much as you can.

The only line-up change to the programme has been Angus Deayton's replacement with guest hosts, and so there is no navigational benefit of this template.

The purpose of this template is to place the documentation for a sidebar template even with the template on the left of the page. It's used on a relatively very small minority of sidebar templates. It contravenes the documented best practice for Documentation, which is for the documentation to be placed below the template. The reason for this best practice, and the reason that the template should be deleted, is that any alternative placement of the documentation confuses the separation between the template and its documentation by overriding the spacial barrier that normally exists between them. It also unnecessarily narrows the presentation of the template documentation. I propose the template be orphaned and then deleted. Bsherr (talk)
Dunno. This is arguably useful for such cases where the documentation would otherwise be pushed off the top of the page, there is still a clear distinction between template and documentation, and it doesn't contravene any template space guidelines that I know of. It could do with a rename to make it clear that it's a documentation template, but otherwise I'm not seeing the harm. PC78 (talk)
Could you explain what you mean by the template being pushed off the top of the page?
Yep, we should get rid. This was a good-faith but rather idiosyncratic attempt to format template documentation for infoboxes so that it wasn't pushed down the page, but a far preferable solution is for the template itself to be hidden on its own page and for any samples to be shown in the doc instead (see for instance).

The template is a navbox that is too broad spectrumed in name-alone to be helpful, let alone content. By definition, any animated piece that was not done by DC Animated Universe would fit the parameters for this box. Conversly, the pages populated are fairly narrowly included to only include DC Comics male superheroes (excluding other DC Comics animated TV shows and features (Mad; Wonder Woman)). Delete as the parameter and scope makes this an essentially unusable template. Sharp962 (talk)
Your only valid objection seems to be to the title, which I do find to be clumsy. However, this is clearly the result of setting limits to its content, your claim of a lack thereof notwithstanding. As there is one Marvel Animation and another Marvel Animated Universe, this appears to be almost perfectly analogous, except that the DC one at hand is limited (there's that word again) enough to disallow direct-to-video (VHS or DVD) or theatrical (e.g., the 1940s Superman shorts) productions. In fact, the first named Marvel navbox should by its title contain everything that the other one does, but it doesn't; come to that, there is nothing there earlier than 2006, but there are quite a few Marvel-based cartoons of the 1960s, 70s and 80s inexplicably (given that title) not listed there. You'll find no explanation or description of a further limitation of any kind there. Consequently, the spectrum of the template under discussion is less broad than that one (or at least has fewer productions qualifying for inclusion at this date; both are likely to grow, of course), and it is at least equally usable (I don't even understand that claim). One vote for not deleting here (You want to post a complaint on that Marvel template's talk page about the numerous items whose absences are inexplicable, then once they are up nominate it for deletion as well, you'll invalidate most of my support of this one). A more concise title, on the other hand.... 173.184.19.140 (talk)

Marvel Animation is a specific company (and the films that comprise it are produced by the company); and the Marvel Animated Universe is a specific animation inset of Marvel entertainment from the 90's and has article to accompany. The template links to ALL DC animation, and not specific sub-sets like the aforementioned templates you mentioned above. -Sharp962 (talk) .
Note: This debate has been included in the list of Comics and animation-related deletion discussions. —Sharp962 (talk)
One has to have that inside information to understand that, as the template does not suggest that limitation at all, other than its title being a link to the article you mention. Besides, Marvel Animation has existed as a company since just about 1980, while the article's infobox says it was "founded" in "2008." This also contradicts the previously mentioned fact that the template's content goes back to 2006. On the other hand, the text there states that it "was incorporated in 2008...." Not the same thing at all, as many companies existed for years before incorporating. That is "an essentially unusable template," a term I still see as totally inapplicable to the one nominated for deletion. There is not all that much in this one when compared to a huge number of others and it is not the fault of the editor who made it that there are no available subsets for any of these (save the Super Friends which has its own template but no grounds for not including its overall article here, and the 1966-69 Filmation cycle which is too small to deserve its own). Furthermore, given my previous explanation of the statement's inaccuracy it is indefensible to say it "includes ALL DC animation." This is even allowing for your previous exclusion of the DC Animated Universe material, which you did not repeat here, and you even emphasized the word "all" this time. (BTW, you did that with caps, and if you don't know Wikipedia well enough to know how to emphasize with italics or boldface here, how do you qualify for the standing to nominate something for deletion?) Again, this template covers only cartoon TV series: no theatrical, TV or video features, and not the 1940s Superman shorts, simply not "ALL DC animation." If you feel the need to make such a false statement to support your position, it must be lacking valid support. 173.184.31.20 (talk)

Kelli Stanley (born 1964) is an American author of mystery-thrillers. Her first novel, Nox Dormienda (A Long Night for Sleeping) (released in July, 2008) was the first of a series set in Roman Britain in the 1st century CE (The Arcturus Series).Nox Dormienda takes its title from a line by the Roman poet Catullus in the poem known as Catullus 5 (Vivamus, mea Lesbia ...). The Curse-Maker, the second novel in the Arcturus series, was sold to Thomas Dunne/St. Martin's Minotaur and was published February 1, 2011.
Stanley's second novel (and the first in a second series) was published by Thomas Dunne/St. Martin's Minotaur in February 2010. The novel marked Stanley's move from a small press to a major publisher. The title is City of Dragons, and the setting is 1940 San Francisco.City of Dragons tackles issues relating to the Second Sino-Japanese War, and is set mainly in Chinatown. Stanley has said that she wanted to create a femme fatale as a hero, playing tribute to noir conventions while at the same time challenging them. Miranda Corbie is the name of her private investigator protagonist, a former Spanish Civil War nurse and ex-escort.
The novel received early praise from notable writers, including Lee Child, Linda Fairstein, Robert B. Parker, George Pelecanos and Otto Penzler, and was published to high critical acclaim: three starred reviews from Publishers Weekly, Booklist, and Library Journal, an RT Book Review Top Pick, an Indie Next Pick from the American Booksellers Association, and a Killer Book from the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association.
Crime fiction critic Tom Nolan of the San Francisco Chronicle wrote in a review dated March 28, 2010, that "Stanley, winner (for a previous book set in ancient Rome) of the Bruce Alexander Award for best historical mystery, knows how to bring the past to life: not only with a wealth of references to old buildings and politics and popular culture, but with thoughts and attitudes, dialogue and gestures, that seem both true to another time and as spontaneous as right this minute. City of Dragons, with its brittle patter and its broken heart of gold, is a joy to read.”. Oline Cogdill of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel praised on February 21, 2010: "Kelli Stanley's riveting new series about 1940s San Francisco private investigator Miranda Corbie revels in the character's uniqueness without resorting to cliches ... The gritty, hard-boiled City of Dragons works as an insightful look at racism and sexism. Stanley never misses a beat as she also shows San Francisco's hidden corners, seething emotions in the days before WWII. ... City of Dragons is a wonderful start to what should be a long-running series."
The hardcover edition of City of Dragons reached #2 on the bestseller list for the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association. The novel is currently available in hardcover, paperback, large-print, audio and e-editions. City of Dragons won the Macavity Award (Sue Feder Memorial Historical Mystery Award) for 2010,, a major mystery award given out by Mystery Readers International. City of Dragons was also selected as a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize in the mystery/thriller category, was nominated for the Bruce Alexander Memorial Historical Mystery Award, the RT Book Reviews Reviewer's Choice award in the historical mystery category, and was a finalist for the Shamus Award for Best First PI Novel by the Private Eye Writers of America.
"Children's Day", a short story prequel to City of Dragons featuring Miranda Corbie, Stanley's private detective protagonist, was published in the International Thriller Writers anthology First Thrills: High-Octane Stories from the Hottest Thriller Authors.The collection, which was edited by Lee Child, was released on June 22, 2010, by Tor/Forge.
The sequel to City of Dragons (City of Secrets) was published on September 13th, 2011.
"Memory Book", another Miranda Corbie short story prequel to both City of Dragons and City of Secrets, was published September 6th, 2011, on Macmillan's The Criminal Element website. It is also for sale as an e-book.
Stanley also participated in the first charity e-book anthology, spearheaded by author Timothy Hallinan. The project, which resulted in the bestselling e-book Shaken: Stories for Japan, contributes all money
Stanley holds a Master's Degree in Classics from San Francisco State University, is published in that field, and has lectured internationally at academic conferences. She lived and attended high school in northern Mendocino/southern Humboldt counties in northern California.
A member of the Mystery Writers of America, International Thriller Writers, Sisters in Crime, International Association of Crime Writers, and Private Eye Writers of America, Stanley has labeled her first series as "Roman noir," a pun on the French literary term for “black novel,” calling it a combination of historical setting and hardboiled style. She credits Raymond Chandler as her greatest writing influence.

The AS-90 (Artillery System for the 1990s) is a lightly armoured self-propelled artillery piece used by the British Army. It was first delivered in 1993. Its official designation is Gun Equipment 155 mm L131.
The AS-90 is used by five regiments of the Royal Horse Artillery and Royal Artillery: 1 RHA, 3 RHA, 4 Regt RA, 19 Regt RA and 26 Regt RA, replacing the 105 mm FV433 Abbot SPG, the M109 155 mm SPG or the FH-70 155 mm towed gun.
AS-90 was designed and built by the Armaments division of Vickers Shipbuilding and Engineering (VSEL, owned by BAE Systems since 1999), who provided 179 vehicles from 1992 to 1995 at a cost of £300 million.
During 2008-09, the AS-90 underwent a capability enhancement program. This mostly involved replacement of electronics.
In 2002 BAE Systems were contracted to upgrade 96 British Army AS-90s to a 52 calibre gun to push the unassisted range to 30 km and with long-range ERA ammunition to 60 to 80 km. However, due to the inability of the selected bi-modular charge system from Somchem of South Africa to meet the requirement for insensitive munitions this project was terminated.
==Development==
AS-90 started in the mid-1980s as a private venture on the 'gamble' that the tri-national SP70 would fail. When this duly occurred, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) issued a cardinal point specification on one page for a new 155 mm SPG. Four tenders were submitted, and AS-90 was the only offer that was not 'brochureware'. The MoD was also required to consider the US "Paladin", an upgraded M109 howitzer.
The MoD has undertaken studies in 2006-09 to "up gun" the Royal Navy's main shipboard gun armament, the 4.5 inch Mark 8 naval gun, to accept the 155 mm gun barrel and breech from the AS-90. This would introduce a common gun calibre for the British Army and Royal Navy, helping with ammunition logistics, and encouraging joint Army-Navy development of extended range and precision guided shells.
==Design==
In 1963 certain NATO nations, including the UK, agreed a Ballistics Memorandum of Understanding for a 155 mm 39 calibre ordnance and a baseline projectile with the shape used for the US M549 rocket-assisted shell. The AS-90 uses a conforming 39 calibre barrel which fires the L15 unassisted projectile out to a range of 24.7 km. However, this was a new design of ordnance and uses a split sliding block breech with Crossley obturation, instead of the more usual screw breech, to permit bagged charges (no metal cartridge cases). The breech mechanism has a primer magazine holding 18 primers.
It is fitted with an auxiliary power unit to eliminate the need to run the main engine to keep the batteries charged while stationary; electrical servos drive the automated elevation, traverse, magazine, shell transfer arm and loader as well as power for electronics and communications.
The vehicle is fitted with an autonomous navigation and gun laying dynamic reference unit (DRU) mounted on the trunnion. All main turret functions are controlled by a Turret Control Computer (TCC) with control and display units for the No 1 (Detachment Commander), No 2 (loader) and No 3 (layer). The combination of the DRU, TCC and powered laying controls provide autolaying. Every gun is fitted with a radar Muzzle Velocity Measuring Device. Reversionary mode laying uses deflection laying via the direct fire sight.
The gun can be brought into action fully closed down, the barrel can be clamped and unclamped from within the vehicle. Into and out of action times are less than 1 minute.
==Characteristics==
Crew: 5, on-board when moving (driver plus 4 gun detachment), full gun detachment 10 including driver, 4 detachment members in the turret.
Length: 9.07 m
Width: 3.3 m
Height: 3.0 m
Armour: 17 mm (maximum, steel)
Weight: 45 tons
Calibre: 155 mm
Range: 24.9 km (39 cal), 30 km (52 cal) standard charges
Rate of fire: 3 rounds in 10 seconds (burst), 6 rounds per minute for 3 minutes (intense), 2 rounds per minute for 60 minutes (sustained)
Secondary armament: 7.62 mm L7 GPMG
Ammunition carried: 48 projectiles and charges (31 turret and 17 hull), 1000 MG rounds
Main Engine: Cummins VTA903T 660 bhp 90 degree, v8, 4 stroke, liquid cooled, turbo diesel,
Max Speed: 55 km/h (Road)
Range: 370 km or 231 mi (Road)
Ground clearance: 0.41 m; Gradient: 60°; Vertical obstacle: 0.75 m; Trench crossing: 110 inches; Fording depth: 1.5 m
==Variants==
AS-90D - Modified for desert use. Thermal protection for crew and extra cooling for engine and machinery. Tracks adapted for reduced wear in sandy conditions.
AS-90 "Braveheart" - Basically the AS-90, but fitted with the 52 calibre length gun. This project was terminated due to non-compliant propelling charges.
Haubicoarmata "Krab" - (eng. Howitzer-cannon Crab) Licensed "Braveheart" turret on a Polish chassis UPG, with modern "Azalia" BMS. Designed and integrated in Poland, by Huta Stalowa Wola and WB Electronics. , two Krab ("Crab") prototypes are built, and successfully completed all required evaluations and state acceptance trials. Order for 48 of 80 projected units for Polish Armed Forces is expected in 2008. Due to the use of a modified T-72 chassis the Indian Army is interested in this design.

Winterthur-Seen railway station (Bahnhof Winterthur-Seen) serves Seen, which is district number 3 in Winterthur, a city in the canton of Zurich, Switzerland. It forms part of the Tösstalbahn section between Winterthur-Grüze and Bauma.
==Location==
Situated at the north eastern edge of central Seen, the station borders the quarter of Sonnenberg, on the other side of the tracks.
==History==
The station was opened on 4 May 1875, together with the rest of the first section of the Tösstalbahn, between Grüze and Bauma. One year later, the line was extended to Wald.
From 1882, the operating railway company also had a line of its own to Winterthur Hauptbahnhof.
On 10 June 1918, the station and the rest of the line were nationalized, and came under the control of the SBB-CFF-FFS.
== Tracks ==
Winterthur-Seen has two platform tracks.
==Services==
=== Zürich S-Bahn ===
The station is served by the following Zürich S-Bahn lines:
(only every hour; every half-hour from Winterthur HB to Seuzach)
==Local transport==
Stadtbus Winterthur serves the station with one Winterthur trolleybus line and one other bus line. Both lines terminate there.

Fire Bomber is a fictional rock band from the anime series Macross 7 (and related projects such as Macross 7 Trash, Macross 7 Encore, and Macross Dynamite 7). In real life, Fire Bomber's music was performed by Yoshiki Fukuyama (as the singing voice and guitar of Basara), Chie Kajiura (as the singing voice of Mylene), and occasionally by Tomo Sakurai (the acting voice of Mylene).
In the fictional world of Macross Fire Bomber were pivotal in the defeat of the alien Protodeviln after it was discovered that their music was the only thing capable of affecting them. Three of their songs were also featured in the 2008 series Macross Frontier, as SMS Skull Leader Ozma Lee is a fan of the band. In the second Macross Frontier Movie, Ranka Lee and other members of SMS acted as cover band of Fire Bomber (titled "Lovely Bomber") as part of a diversion to free Sheryl Nome from prison.

Evaporation Expert (talk)
Presumably Evaporation Expert/Heidolph. Chzz ►
It is not ready to go live, because it looks like an advert; it does not have any inline references, and it only has two independent references. YouTube is not appropriate as a reference.
Please review NPOV. Statements such as are not appropriate.

== Guinunez/Huarpe ==
Article about an extinct indigenous group, there is already an article on Spanish, Portuguese and French but not in English.
I am not sure if the article is too short, I based this article on a similar group called Puelche and add it a little more based on the Spanish version
Guinunez (talk)
It has no references to reliable sources. Those are essential. See VRS and CITE, and FIRST. Wikipedia (any language) is not a reliable source. Chzz ►
Thanks Chzz for your feedback
I have added several more sources now, most of them are printed books published on google, I'm not sure if it is better to link them there (I did that), and if it is better to link the specific page.
Guinunez (talk)
== Syren_Band ==
This article is about the band Syren who are made up of ex-members of the band Rockbitch.
Erinbeyer87 (talk)
There are problems with the references. The idea of refs is, so that the person reading the article can 'check the facts'. So, the first one quotes from a newspaper; instead, you need to give details of the paper - the title of the article, the page number, author, publisher, location.
The second reference, "in an interview on Radio Beverwijk" is probably unverifiable, cannot be used.
Same for the third.
4 is another Wikipedia article; that is not appropriate, Wikipedia itself cannot be used as a reference.
5 does not seem to mention Syren at all
6 says "DDA Agency, Purple Dragon Productions" and I do not know what this is, where I can check it.
7 (starfarer)...maybe OK, but probably isn't really a reliable source.
8 is a quote from a blog, and that definitely is not a reliable source.
9 and 10 are the bands website; such primary sources can be used, but only with care, for simple neutral facts; they cannot be used for e.g. or . See also NPOV
11 looks OK (as far as I can tell; I do not speak Dutch)
12 is again using the bands own website for a claim, "a 3 page article in Holland's Gitaar Plus Magazine" - if it was in the magazine, fine, then reference that - give date of publication, publisher, etc.
13 - facebook - definitely not appropriate
14 is RTV again; probably OK
Overall, this needs a lot of fixing. Mostly, it is not verifiable.
For these reasons, the article does not necessarily pass the notability guidelines; see also GNG and BAND.
I'll copy this message to the article talk page. Chzz ►
== New unreviewed article/Duane Hopkins ==
I'm hoping this article is ok to go live soon, i'd appreciate some feedback to let me know how it's looking. Thanks.
Northandy (talk)
Actually, that was already in the live articles area - just with the name ""New unreviewed article/Duane Hopkins". An article in userspace has your user name as a prefix - for example, Chzz/test. You can make such pages using USERSPACEDRAFT.
I moved the page to just Duane Hopkins.
Overall, it looks OK; certainly better than most new articles.
lacks a reference, and so sounds a bit promotional.
There are too many external links. Probably, just one link to the 'official site' is appropriate. External links should not be used unless they provide info that cannot otherwise be included; see EL.
This reference link does not seem to work.
Also http://www.thirdfilms.co.uk/ just gives a 'holding page'.
It would be better if you could add templates, to give more reference details - the website name, author, date, and so on.
I've removed the 'unreviewed' tag. See DEVELOP, and maybe ask for a peer review, after addressing the concerns above. Chzz ►
== http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vatel_International_Hospitality_School#History ==
The article has been cleaned of key statements which point it be an advert. As this is my first article i was unaware of using id for a group. Thus i am using ID now. This entity or company is a worldwide entity.
Manojk297 (talk)
It still seems quite promotional, because it contains non-neutral claims that are unreferenced, is largely referenced to 'campusfrance.org' which does not seem independent, and contains some unencyclopaedic information - see NOT.
The external links to the worldwide sites are not appropriate, see EL.
Examples of unreferenced claims include , most of 'History' e.g.
In 1995, Vatel started expansion to Asia and Latin America and in the year 1997 two new Schools were opened in Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia. This was done through franchise, but the concept of education, the training methods and teaching materials remain the same throughout every school even today. With such rapid expansion Liaison offices were created in Shanghai (1997) and New Delhi (1998). They represent ‘Vatel Asia’ and fostered relationships with local universities and also facilitated student exchanges. Thereafter Vatel joins CampusFrance, an agency created by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and National Education which is responsible for promoting French higher education in the world.
Chzz ►
== Pahaquarry Copper Mine ==
Created new entry for this historic mine.
Plan to add links back from several other articles after review.
Zeete (talk)
A couple of formatting things which I have fixed;
Refs should appear directly after punctuation, no space. E.g. born in 1901.... not born in 1901. ...
1650's should be just 1650s
Mostly, it looks OK, just be careful of seemingly unreferenced sections, for example has no reference.
Also "Geology" has just one reference at the end - maybe that covers the facts, but if so, that can be confusing if later someone adds in the middle. So it's best to add a reference at the end of every sentence.
I noticed that you use a source, ""Pahaquarry Copper Mine, Final Cultural Landscape Report", several times - but different pages. That's all fine, but if you wanted to avoid the duplication, you might be interested in 'Harvard-style referencing'; see Chzz/help/harvard.
"Books and articles" should probably be a section headed == Further reading ==. It'd be neater with bullet-points at the start of each, using an asterisk *. And you might want to make them into the same 'style' as the references, by putting at the start and at the end.
I removed the 'unreviewed' tag. Chzz ►

== Computation of radiowave attenuation in the atmosphere ==
I need some specialist in Applied Mathematics specialized in Electromagnetic Wave Propagation to review the short article
Computation of radiowave attenuation in the atmosphere
Many thanks.
Thuytnguyen48 (talk)
As a non-specialist, and indeed non-mathematician, I can at least provide some feedback;
You don't need an == Introduction == heading. Articles should always start, with no heading, with a paragraph or two describing the topic, with the name in bold. So,
Computation of radiowave attenuation in the atmosphere is the....whatever on Earth it is
The pictures should be 'thumbnailed' - ie , which puts it into a nice little box, to the right, with a caption (as shown right here). The size of the thumbnails is then set by users reading it, in their preferences; this is the correct way to do things. Don't force huge images on people - they can always click for bigger.
The formulae would look a lot better if you used math notation, so please see Displaying a formula.
Don't over-capitalize words, for example;
Wikilinks don't care if they are initial-caps; Sausage and sausage work just the same: Sausage and sausage.
If you need to link from one word to another, it's e.g. - makes: I am a dentist.
Do not write it in 'lecture form' - just state the facts. So, for example, change;
Note that the algorithm does not guaranty that the target is actually reached
to;
The algorithm does not guarantee that the target is reached
Similarly, avoid exclamation marks. So change;
For this, a much harder boundary value problem would have to be solved!
to
To achieve this, a much harder boundary value problem would have to be solved.
Some of that looks like original research though. As a non-expert, I cannot really tell; however, statements such as those in the 'conclusion' are certainly not appropriate, without references. It sounds like opinion, not actual verifiable fact; e.g. , , .
For actual expert help though, you're better asking on WikiProject Mathematics.
You might also wish to browse Manual of Style (mathematics). Cheers, Chzz ►

How do I post this page?
Thanks for the help. Have made the reference additions.
Lisa Pelikan (talk)
Looks like you managed it; 06:49, 7 October 2010 Lisa Pelikan (moved User:Lisa Pelikan/Simon Levy to Simon Levy)
I removed the 'representation' section; email addresses and telephone numbers are not appropriate.
Lots of it is unreferenced. Remember that anyone can remove unreferenced info. For example, all of "Biography" is unreferenced; where can we check these facts? What happens if another editor changes it - how can we tell who is correct?
Please add references, or remove unverifiable content. Example, Finalist for the PEN Award in Drama. He has also adapted Fitzerald's Tender is the Night and The Last Tycoon. In 2010 he directed the Los Angeles Premiere of Michael Hollinger's Opus ... and is producing the U.S. Premiere of Athol Fugard's latest play The Train Driver. In 2011 he'll direct the West Coast Premiere of Tennessee Williams' last play A House Not Meant to Stand.

I think he is a very important and notable man to Iranians around the world as he is the only famous FX & commodity analyst of Iranian origin in the world and has gained a very good reputation in media and expert forums in Iran, so I decided to introduce him to wikipedia as a source to find notable persons. What do you think? do you think I should add up some lines to this article or it is OK with the current version?
Thanks everybody on Wikipedia
Partovi (talk)
I assume you mean S.A Ghafari (Iranian Commodity & FX Analyst).
It needs inline references.
Also, it is not neutral;
...one of the most respected FX & Commodity analysts of Iranian origin. He was born on 21 September 1980 in Mashhad, Iran from his father, a famous judge and a house wife mother. He graduated in Mechanical Engineering in 2002 from a highly ranked public university in Iran. He first introduced to TSE (Tehran Stock Exchange) in early 1998 and soon became one of the only analysts of its kind in Iran.
Some of it is just plain opinion, and not acceptable, e.g.

== Mbaish/Enter your new article name here ==
Hi, I've followed wiki standtards for writting Events articles. I'd like to know if this article complies with it.
Also, I've read and read guidelines but can't figure out how to put the name to the article of have a good layout. The layout of the page seems odd.
Thanks for the help.
Mbaish (talk)
I fixed the formatting with this edit.
A lot of the facts have no reference, for example;
From 1989 to 1995 all editions of the National MBA Games where held at Queen's University. Starting in 1996 rounds where created so different Universities would host the event each year. From 2001 on, the receipient of the previous year's Queen's Cup has the right to host next year's edition. If the Queen's Cup holder was also the host or is not interested on hosting, another interested University is allowed become the host.
Please try to add information from independent sources, for example newspaper articles.
To change the name, or to make it live, you move it - but please don't make it live until everything is verifiable, with inline references. Chzz ►
Chzz many thanks for the help answering all my questions. And for your post on how to Thank people who help :) Mbaish (talk)
== Mohammed AlSharekh ==
Need to what all to do to make the article wikipedia ready.
Debolina Sengupta
This has no references at all, and therefore could be deleted. reliable sources are essential. It makes highly opinionated claims, with no proof, for example . To add inline references, see CITE. Please remove any claims that cannot be verified. Chzz ►

This article is third in a series of early Rhode Island settlers, following William Arnold (settler) and Benedict Arnold (governor)
Sarnold17 (talk)
I've made some minor formatting edits; see page history.
Roger Williams links to a disambiguation page, please fix that.
Please remove links to England - too common a term to link; OVERLINK.
Consider adding an infobox, .
Please add .
I moved the picture "Original Providence Rhode Island town layout of homesteads" over to the right; it is against guidelines to have an image left-aligned at the start of a section.
I also removed the forced image size (400px) from that picture; unless there is a very very good reason, it's best to leave everything unsized, so that the reader can choose their own thumb size in preferences.
It would be nice to add ALT text to the images.
In "King Philip's War" re. death/will, it says - I'm not sure what that means. Is the date uncertain? It needs explaining, or a footnote or something.
Mostly, it looks good. I'll remove the unreviewed that. I suggest you nominate it for 'Did you know...' to appear on the main page, see DYKS. Beyond that, get a peer review and head towards good article status. Best, Chzz ►
Yes, looks quite good. Minor point - you state that "King Philip's War which was the outcome of severe friction between the Narragansett Indians and the English settlers". It involved many groups of indigenous people other than just the Narragansett. Some other groups are listed in King Philip's War (and I note that page omits the Massaco, who wiped out a town, but that's an aside I'll try to address later)
@Chzz The original source actually used "12 Jan. 1676/7, aged about 85"
See here but scroll to next page
I'm just speculating, but I've been reading some of the 17th century records of the colony of Connecticut, and I noticed that when they switch to a new year, they often retain the old year for a few weeks. I don't know why this was done, whether it was simply a habit (like with old paper checks) or some other convention, but it does happen quite regularly. On the one hand, I'm fairly certain this means that we would not write 12 Jan 1677, but this is OR, so I'm not quite sure what to do, absent clarify on historical practices.--SPhilbrickT

Hi Messedrocker, Gold-Horn from Wikinews here. Just got back on Wikipedia after a year out with projects and stuff (computer programming... aaarggggh!!). Hope you're OK!
== Pete Carroll semi-protect request: ==
They've tagged it 3 times since I posted the semi-protect request. They're using anonymous IPs that regularly change. I've already had one banned, but I realize it's pointless due to the new IPs. Please help.
Thank you. I realize at the time it was less vandalized, but I assumed it would end up getting the brunt of it after their little game with GameDay was taken away (one out of five of the previous GameDay vandals also went after this article). Thanks again :-)

Hi there, messed rocker!Thank you so much for supporting my RfA! It ended up passing and I'm rather humbled by the support (and a bit surprised that it was snowballed a day early!). Please let me know if I can help you out and I welcome any comments, questions, or advice you wish to share. Sláinte!
P.S. Thanks for the message and congratulations on your own recent adminning! I've quickly learned that I'm not the type to rack up thousands of admin log entries (it's taken me days just to thank everyone for participating in my RfA!), so hopefully you'll pick up some of my slack, hehe!

== Thank you for Semi-protecting Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy ==
I really appreciate that, thank you. Hopefully now other editors wont have to worry about that unregistered person believing that he owns the page. DietLimeCola
Please look at the page history. If you will, you will see that DietLimeCola showed up there as a vandal a few weeks ago. When the POV and fancruft they added were deleted, DLC started an edit war on the page, using either sockpuppets, or friends with different user names editing the article from the same computer. Either way, it's the same thing. The article was fully protected for almost 2 weeks, during which time DLC appeared to become contrite and willing to work with the community. As soon as the protection was lifted (by my request), DLC began to edit the article using poor grammer and sentence structure, and adding POV. Take a look at the edits made during the past 24 hours, and decide for yourself who is damaging the page. If anybody is intent on having their own way with the page, it's DietLimeCola. Most of the kind of edits this user is adding have long ago been discussed and discounted by the community, but DLC is not willing to accept that. I have just finished cleaning up the page again: I suggest that you go there later today, and look to see if DLC has changed it again. Pay particular attention to the sentence structure and grammer, neither of which is up to Wikipedia standards. I and a few others have been keeping this article cleaned up and meeting Wikipedia standards for months. Now DietLimeCola has decided to "own" the page, and is not willing to accept the will of the community. Is this how Wikipedia is supposed to work? I think not.

Hey, I added your comment onto the talk page for Arbitration. I use that link to get to arbitration, its just easier for me.

== List of missing articles. ==
I have listed some of the sources in the first page (although I just noticed that I had forgotten Guide to Places of the World). I've also checked glossaries of books like Wider than the Sky and Awakenings and, in fact, many books I had used for article sources. Unfortunately, the list is long. However, many parts of the lists are mainly based on my own notes I have gathered from a variety of sources. I've been also double-checking the lists in case the topic already has an article with some other name. - Skysmith
Go ahead - I cannot write about all of the topics myself so wider awareness would be welcome. But could you add additional topics to the thematic pages as well? - Skysmith

== Hello Messedrocker, ==
Hello,
I am the anon who has been working on the soybean article, biological value, and other articles.
I was going to add more info to the articles including soy protein but you blocked it.
If you approve of my edits in the soybean article then why did you block the other articles.
I want you to block all the article or unblock all the articles.
Not blocking the soy article and blocking the arrticles is contradicting yourself. Why?
Because I am the one you and others sre calling a sock. You you don't like a sock then why the heck you did not block the soybean article too.
Go block the soybean article too to make it official buddy.
I can open as many accounts as I please. There is no policy against having 1 million accounts.
In facts it is none of anyone's business.
You can block all you want buddy. I consider your blocks a personal attack.
I am not being disruptive buddy. Please block the soybean article now.
Yankee76 has been policeing me and wikistalking me and HE has broke the 3 revert rule and then you have the oddessity to accuse me of being disruptive and then say my anon edits to the soybean article meets with your delight and approval.
You are a joke!
I demand you block the soybean article right now because now I am REALLY MAD.
After all my hours of hard work you call me disruptive. Forget YOU. 63.17.54.97

Well done, thanks for http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Image:Streisand_Estate.JPG&diff=68968076&oldid=68724759 ...
== Request for Full Protection to prevent ongoing edit war ==
Please fully protect all articles in question.
Soy, biological value, soy protein...etc. This is a full scale EDIT WAR.
Yankees76 has made numerous reverts to some of the articles in question.
If you take a close look at the history Yankees76 he has BROKE the 3 revet rule.
Again, this is REVERT WARRING that show absolutely no sign of stopping.
I think the only solution for now is LOCK UP ALL THE ARTICLES RIGHT NOW!!!
If you don't the WAR will continue.
Just fully protect the article for only a week. Just one week for things to cool off!!!
Please don't let this CRAZYNESS WARRING continue.
Again, block everyone from editting until things cool off.
I am ready for anything either way.
If Yankees76 reverts my edits I will junp right in again and again and again.
Thnaks for your help. Messenger2010

== Vandalsim on the Soy protein Article. ==
An IP has just added very suspious information to the soy protein article. I consider the edits vandalism.
Also, there was removal of sentences by the IP in question.
I know exactly who the IP (a sock-puppet of a registered user) really is who is trying to BAIT ME by vandalizing the soy protein article. I am NOT going to bite the fake bait.
I will let you handle this on the soy protein article.
Adding original (fake) information is never allowed on Wikipedia. I am tired of edit warring!

Hi James,
Countries of Europe#Recent changes (specifically ¶18)
I felt I ought to notify you that I supplied your name as an example of an admin to ask to review this template; I hope you don't mind and that if you are approached and review the template, you don't find it more trouble than you'd imagined! Maybe it might be best to unprotect it and see what happens... Best wishes, David Kernow (talk)

== POV Editor ==
Yankess76 has repeately and continued to be disruptive.
Shows no sign of stopping. He is playing double dutch with himself and his puppets.
Has created many puppets to have articles semi-protected to potentially make POV edits to his prefered version.
Has made strange reverts back and forth. Just look here below: There are a few other articles too.
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Soy_protein&diff=84737970&oldid=84722550 ★MESSED]]ROCKER★
I could care less about his socks. The only thing I care about is the article. What could be done to stop him from putting incorrect information in the article. He swings back and forth with information. 67.150.255.120
One thing I notice is that when he removed it the first time, the information had no source. Then when he re-added it, there was some sort of sourcing. Maybe his concerns are about sourcing in the article. ★MESSEDROCKER★
Actually, there was a source there when it was originally removed. Perhaps he removed the information thinking it was false, then he realized there was a source and re-added the information. It's best that you assume good faith. ★MESSEDROCKER★
That was the case. I requested that the anon user provide a source - see his/her talk page - they returned with the edit and the source. Yankees76
Correct Info Below.
===Biological value of soy protein===
Main Article: Biological Value
Another measure of a protein's use in nutrition is the Biological Value scale. The Biological Value method, which dates back to 1911 relies on nitrogen retention as an indicator of protein quality. However, it does not take into account certain factors influencing the digestion of the protein. A 1983 study by researcher E. Renner indicated soybean has a BV value of 74 compared to egg at 100. Soy protein has a lower protein value than all animal sources of protein for muscle growth according to the BV methodology. Nonetheless, the Biological Value (BV) methodology is an accurate indicator of biological activity for protein quality and utilization in humans.
Mendel and Fine (1911-1912) made the interesting observation that soybeans produce a positive nitrogen(N) balance in a human subject.
Correct Info Above.
FAKE INFO BELOW:
Many N-studies since then have confirmed the fact that the digestibility and biological value of soy protein for humans is comparable in nutritional value and quality to animal proteins.
Also, look at Yankees76 comments in the talk page. He claims the information is false and fact at the same time. He is playing it both ways. I believe he added the info with one of his anon IP socks. Then instead of removing the "vandal" info his strawman arguement is to assume good faith. This has gone long enough with that double talker.
I have provided many many references. CASE CLOSED!!!
== RE:POV Editor ==
Anon: I'll gladly submit to a RFCU for any trumped-up sockpuppet you can put me down has puppeteering. In fact now that you've accused me here on another users talk page I demand that you prove these allegations.
If you really want the truth Messedrocker, the anonymous user here on your talk page has already been proven to be a sockpuppet/puppet master. After I suspected that this user was using socks to avoid scrutiny by other editors and dodge warnings, rather than going around on talk pages making accusations about this disruption and sockpuppets, I was actually following the proper channels. First with a sock puppet posting on the notice board Suspected sock puppets/Messenger2010 then after review, I followed with a checkuser that determined the anonymous user calling for my ban here on your talk page has been running a nice little sockpuppet ring. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Suspected_Wikipedia_sockpuppets_of_Messenger2010.
So as you can see, I'm hardly the one who is playing games here. The fact that I'm being called a puppeteer is ludicrous. Also, calling me a nut, a double talker etc. is yet another instance of this user being uncivil/making personal attacks. For which I've also filed a notice on the personal attack intervention noticeboard. to the anon user, or AndyCanada or whatever sock user name you prefer, as the saying goes - put up or shut up - prove that I'm a puppeteer. Your allegations against me are here for all to see. Now let's see some proof.

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was no consensus. I'm closing this early, as it is becoming fast apparent that we won't obtain a consensus to delete at this time. I recommend to re-evaluate the situation in a few weeks when this situation is entirely resolved and no longer headline news. This does not preclude discussion about a possible consensus-based merger to the appropriate article about the event. Sandstein
===Richard Phillips (captain)===
() – (View AfD)(View log)
As much as I hate to do this, Captain Richard Philips fails WP:ONEEVENT, he only has an article here now becuase of the media attention surrounding the attempted capture of the freighter and his surrender to the Somalian pirates in exchange for his crew's safety. Therefore, I believe the article should of either be deleted or redirect and protected until this whole fiasco sorts itself out. TomStar81 (Talk)
Keep! I'm a Brit.Wikipedida is one of my first port of calls when i try to look at a background to a news item. its useful. John Ellero
Delete and salt TomStar81 (Talk)
Redirect to MV_Maersk_Alabama#Hijacking. Known for one event, but a plausible search term. JJL (talk)
Keep for now. WP:ONEEVENT seems inconsistenly enforced. See Chesley Sullenberger. Although WP:ONEEVENT is part of a hard policy, the subject's potential notability as part of a historical event (the first successful pirate attack on a US-flagged ship in months? years?) argues against hasty deletion. (JJL's suggestion about redirect is a good fallback.
Keep. I think that this is an important current event though I may be personally bias due to my connections with the captain. Sanitas (talk) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.232.243.201 (talk)
Weak keep Possibly important enough. I think to delete the article while the event is so unresolved is a rush to judgment. DGG (talk)
Keep fore Now and maybe later - He is the focus of an international incident, although a lessor profile than Terry A. Anderson. Dinkytown
Delete but merge into the article about the attack. The attack is the notable incident as per all the WP:RS at this time (this provides some distinction with the Sullenberger article, although I will not push that point any further). The thing about WP:OneEvent is not so much that it gives a definite answer as to the article's notability, but that it protects otherwise non-public individual biographies from veering off topic. This is a prime example. What is notable per the standards is the attack, not necessarily the individual, and any of the relevant information can be easily, and more coherently discussed in the parent attack article, rather than in this article. Shadowjams (talk)
Keep Certainly any other crew member of the ship would fall foul of WP:ONEEVENT, but Phillips has a major role in this major event. Over The Desk (talk)
Redirect to the Maerske Alabama article - and create a redirect 'Alabama hijacking' to that as well (Maerske not being an easy word for some...). Captain Phillips's actions are part of the whole thing. If he does it again on another occasion, a separate article would probably be justified. Peridon (talk)
Redirect per ONEEVENT and BLP concerns. Skinny87 (talk)
Redirect to MV Maersk Alabama, the article is way too short. 98.119.177.171 (talk)
Note: This debate has been included in the list of Living people-related deletion discussions.
Keep. The Somali pirates fired at a U.S. ship. His one event could end up leading to a lot more. Jonathan321 (talk)
Merge & Redir to MV Maersk Alabama - at the moment its a ONEEVENT, only time will tell if something further comes from the events currently playing out. For all we know, He may be the cause of further events. Attack upon bases of Piracy in Somalia ??? Exit2DOS2000•T•C•
Keep or redirect His name as a search term is pretty necessary
Redirect to MV Maersk Alabama. Popular and important search term, but current notability sketchy, and the article itself is very sparse.
Keep for now, with a final decision to be made after this situation is resolved.
Keep - the guy just got rescued, and his personal story of the entire event and rescue will be splashed all over the news for weeks. Rklawton (talk)
keep popular
Redirect not enough information, and only notable for one event at the moment
Keep for now, with the caveat that the article should be revisited in a month or so to verify that its as notable as we think it is. Umbralcorax (talk)
Keep--notable as the first American taken by pirates since 1804, according to major media news reports. This article will grow in sourced information as the story develops, but even after the initial news surge dies down, Phillips will remain notable for this distinction.

I am Daniel Reyes.
My goal is to provide starter articles regarding subjects I've been deeply involved with and have substantial knowledge about.
These subjects include:
I want to start a public discussion and bring these subjects into the focus of the people who could benefit from the knowledge. To this end nothing promotes information as well as Wikipedia. I hope that other people will join the conversation, step up, and fill in the blanks.
I am going to start with my own experiences, as documented in print and on the web. I expect that I will be a little optimistic in my use of adjectives.

Welcome to Wikipedia! Please do not remove cited information from Afghanistan - if you have concerns, I invite you to discuss them on the talk page. Regards, – Riana ⁂
pleade don't accuse me of something when you are wrong. Double sentences with double cited info must be removed. read first before you talk.
You seem to be new to this place, so I will give you 2 pointers.
There is nothing wrong with more than one citation in a sentence. It is actually a good thing. If you can find more than one source to back up a piece of information, this means that information is more likely to be true.
Please don't tell people to 'read before they talk'. This is a collaborative project, and you may put people off with that kind of attitude. I encourage you to read about civility when conversing with other users.
Best wishes, – Riana ⁂
I said read the disputed area on the article before you learn what I am trying to fix, the cited info is stated 2 times in the same place. This confuses people and I have the rights to fix articles when I see mistakes just as everyone else, best wishes to you also.
OK, thanks. – Riana ⁂

==Fair use rationale for Image:Jassie $ Jayaraj.jpg==
Jassie $ Jayaraj.jpg is being used on this article. 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 this Wikipedia article 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.
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 insure 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 there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.

The Google Video posted as reference had no sound, so I removed the link to it, and the material that was referenced with it. Balcer My bad, the sound works, it was a problem on my end. Balcer
The entry was extremely biased. In fact, this wiki was edited by someone who runs a website (http://www.polandinjustice.com/) that obviously has a personal vendetta, therefore i removed the anti-Polonist statements. In fact, the previous editor even links to this entry from his website which proves an obvious bias. Do we really need to know that a father & his son from a nearby village were treated poorly by Poles? No, we don't. How does it relate to the history of this town? It doesn't therefore I removed it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.1.11.19 (talk)
Once again someone is finding it necessary to add content that adds absolutely NOTHING to the history of the town of Radziejow. It is heresay first of all. Second, the person adding this has a personal bias as the source of his information is his OWN FATHER. The author hosts a website that links to this article, therefore I see many biases in these additions and prefer to keep them out. Not to mention they border on anti-Polonism, of which the author is guilty as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.152.10.41 (talk)

With a title like that, I don't believe the author has a neutral point of view, so essential to Wikipedia. If someone connected to the blog is making controversial changes here (and given the obscurity of Radziejow that is very likely), I invite him/her to rethink their attitude.
Specifically, while I can understand the pain of someone whose family was mistreated in that town, that personal experience cannot be given extensive treatment in this article, which is after all about a modern European town in all its aspects. Please see Neutral point of view#Undue_weight for Wikipedia policy in this matter. 74.15.21.141 (talk)
That is exactly what is/was happening. I called this person out on it previously. Unacceptable. Hopefully it's stopped now. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.162.50.50 (talk)

== Divide list even further ==
I think that this list should be subdivided into separate state pages. This page is long, and would be easier to read if it were divided by state. Just my two cents, anybody else want to chime in?
No one's going to read a list of towns that could have beaches in them.
== unusable ==
This article is unusable and of no value. It has about 15 beaches, with all links to blank pages, between far more towns and cities, which are listed regardless of whether they have any beach or coastline at all. The state of Vermont, which has no oceanfront, is here. This reads like a list of cities and towns in New England more than of beaches.
I agree that this article is very weak. However, Vermont does have beaches (on Lake Champlain). I wouldn't say they are great beaches, but they're there nonetheless.
Why list cities like Andover, Connecticut in an article titles "list of beaches in New England"? They have no beaches. Their articles have no beaches listed. If someone could trim this list down to useful size (only communities with actual beaches, or even communities that MENTION beaches on their articles), it just might cease to be useless.
Since some people clearly think this article is worth saving, I've begun the process of making it useful. I have deleted all cities/towns in Rhode Island that simply could not have beaches based on location alone. Also added a few beaches. If this can be done for all the states, we just might have an article of some value.
Seriously a useless article currently. WildlifeAnalysis
Fucking useless. Nominate it for deletion.
I see that nobody has taken this to AfD as of yet. I think the list is kind of silly as it is too. However I do think that with research it can be improved. Just a quick glance at the list of towns and I see several that have beaches that aren't listed. I'm going to erase all the towns without current beach listings for now and then I'm going to come back and add in listings as I research them. —Elipongo (Talk|contribs)
== Better ==
There are actually beaches on here now. This article has some use. Keep up the good work. Also, try to get some sources on the page if you can.
== Map ==
This article would greatly benefit from maps, say, one for each state, with beach locations indicated. Anyone wants to get a start on this, go ahead.
==Links==
It's slightly absurd that we have redlinks for almost every beach listed. Let's face it: an article on Nauset Light Beach might be OK, but individual articles on Nauset Light Beach 1, Nauset Light Beach 2, and Nauset Light Beach 3 just aren't going to happen. Do we agree on the need to cut down on some links? Biruitorul

== Vandalism ==
I think this page has been vandalized. Under chapter 1.3 history - 18th century, halfway into the text there is a misplaced "Iroqui indians" then the text reverts to some sort of cut and paste kindergarten language, wich repeats itself several time.
—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.141.89.53 (talk) .
Note that the term "Native American" doesn't apply to Native
in Canada (such as the "Iroquois"). vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv141.110.99.50 I've used "First Nations," which applies to both American and Canadian Aboriginals and is the name they often, (though not always), prefer, particularly in Canada.
Many of the First Nations call themselves by names other than the names we know. The use of the term "Iroquois," applied to the Haudenosaunee, is a case in point. The term was originally used by the Huron (Wyandotte) as an insult. The French (who were also enemies of the Haudenosaunee) picked up the term. Since it was an insult, rather than the name they called themselves, it is worth a paragraph IMHO. However, there are many cases where the name commonly used by English-speakers is not the one the people themselves use. It might be nice if we could come up with a convention for handling this. For the time being, I have simply put the alternative name in brackets. I would welcome any thoughts on how best to handle this. Sunray 21:46, 2003 Dec 8 (UTC) and they used shit to clear choughs
I beg to differ. "First Nations" is never used to refer to American Native Americans. When I read that, I came here to ask if it should be changed, because, to me, it is specifically Canada-related. RickK
- That's incorrect. "First Nations" is occasionally used in the United States. See the Wikipedia article about "First Nations."
There are plenty of Iroquois in the US too.
I am completely aware of that. That's why I advocate changing First Nations to Native Americans. RickK
I was agreeing you, not disputing you. Actually the term doesn't matter to me. The Iroquois I know happen call themselves "Indians", for what it's worth. This article is somewhat defective, however, in that "Iroquois" is certainly not synonomous with "Iroquois Confederacy", which was a specific political movement about Iroquois-speaking peoples.
although you can argue that we say "France" the "French" are the same, so maybe it's appropriate to equate the two.
Decumanus, I am OK with most of your edit, but can't understand why you changed "upstate" to "western" New York. The Mohawk nation most definitely occupied eastern New York (the Hudson and Mohawk valleys), so "upstate" is therefore the more accurate term. Much of the territory occupied would be also described "central" NY; only the Senecas being truly in the western portion of the present state. Pollinator 22:45, Jun 3, 2004 (UTC)
I'm chuckling a little. I live in Staten Island, so it's all "western New York" to me. Just perception, really. Your wording is defintely more accurate.:)
== Haudenosaunee ==
I have added Haudenosaunee as the name for the Confederacy. I had always heard them as synonyms, as opposed to the definition of Haudenosaunee given on WP. Do these need to be merged?
Also, shouldn't this article be at Iroquois Confederacy? - BanyanTree
Just merged it in. The Haudenosaunee article was only a facsimile of a more in depth paragraph in this entry.
Leaving this article titled "Iroquois" is inappropriate. As noted in the article, the term Iroquois is an insulting name applied by the league's long-time enemies, the French and Wyandotts. The people call themselves Haudenosaunee. This is tantamount to titling an article on Italians "Guineas", or one on Poles "Pollacks". While I understand that Iroquois is the more commonly known name, all searches of either term lead to this article. Why use an ethnic slur as the title and put the correct name in parentheses?
I agree with this; it's actually the first thing I thought of when I visited this article. It seems to be becoming more common in central New York. The Syracuse Post-Standard recently had a special feature article on the Onondaga Nation where they made exclusive use of Haudenosaunee (with an explanation of it's preference to "Iroquois".) While it may be historically congruent, it's culturally insensitive. Jestermonkey
I intend to rename this article to Haudenosaunee, and make Iroquois re-direct to Haudenosaunee. I understand the argument that Iroquois is the name normally used in the English language. However, the English language is changing. Authorities in Canada are starting to adopt the names traditionally used by indigenous peoples in their native languages, like Haudenosaunee. Government documents, newspapers, textbooks, and so-on show evidence of this change.
Kesahun
While of course it is not binding on Wikipedia, Article 14 of the United Nations Draft Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous peoples states: Indigenous peoples have the right to revitalize, use, develop and transmit to future generations their histories, languages, oral traditions, philosophies, writing systems and literatures, and to designate and retain their own names for communities, places and persons. Kesahun
Could someone add a sound file with the pronunceation of "Haudenosaunee" (.ogg?) or a phonetic spelling? That would help my understanding of the topic a lot. I think I would be helpful in many other related articles too! Thanks, Mike McGregor (Can)

This is really not good enough, pseudo-phonetic English rarely is. Again, can anyone give the pronunciation in a sound file or (preferably)in IPA? Causantin (talk)
The page Haudenosaunee was merged here, and Iroquois is the common name. Someone tried a cut-and-paste move of this article but that messes up the article histories as well as being a conflict with Wikipedia common naming standards.
With so many people mentioning in this discussion topic that they support the name Haudenosaunee as the name for the article why hasn't it already been changed? It is the correct name for the people, we don't label African-American article as "negro" or worse. The term Iroqouis is just as bad as that worse name. Just because white people don't get it doesnt mean it isnt insulting and wrong. 24.182.142.254 (talk)
== Invasion/Colonization ==
I changed this text:
In 1720 the Tuscarora fled north from the European invasion of North Carolina and petitioned to become the Sixth Nation.
to this:
In 1720 the Tuscarora fled north from the European colonization of North Carolina and petitioned to become the Sixth Nation.
The term "invasion" in this instance is POV, and less accurate than the term "colonization"
Well the Tuscarora already lived there and considered it their land collectively, so do you suppose they viewed a new arrival who arbitrarily claimed it as their own as a coloniser or as an invader? And placed in that same situation what would you call the new arrival? LamontCranston
I don't see invasion as any more or less POV than colonization. While invasion implies violence or militarism and colonisation implies peaceful "moving in," the fact is that there was a mixture of both. There were explorers, settlers who build homes and planted crops, settlers who actively went out into areas and shot people, settlers whose only contact with natives was trade, actual armies sometimes, and ultimately the Tuscarora had to "flee"
== material copied without attribution ==
This article appears to be a wholesale copy of material from the site www.sixnations.org
If used with permission, that should be noted. In any event, there should be proper attribution.
It is unlikely that the people described in the article will appreciate the recent change that recharacterizes an invasion of Tuscarora territory as a "colonization"
==Rome and the Druids among other tangents==
This had been recently added to the article. At the least, the writing style is unencylopedic. And I doubt that the mention of Rome and Druids is very pertinent here. Please feel free to reincorporate what is of value here back into the article. older≠wiser 02:14, July 11, 2005 (UTC)
There exists another, perhaps more compelling, version explaining the origin of the word "Iroquois"; as the French combination of two distinct
In considering what may or may not have been insults of the past; we as readers/interpreters of a modern view must consider that the same alleged insults may actually have been statements expressing fear, in the sense of an attempt to degrade via misrepresentation the lives and ways of an entire people. This kind of slander is known to have been used by ancient Rome. Also Ancient Rome was accustomed to completely ignoring the views of local authorities with whom they had had agreements or relationships. See the link regarding Boadicea as a case in point:
http://www.royalty.nu/Europe/England/Boadicea.html
Please see comments regarding Roman propaganda and the prescript or rule of Augustus forbiding the practice of Druidic rituals (See Druid). Such views would not have been supported or used had they not been effective in affecting how other Romans would see the Druids (or whoever else the propaganda was directed against) and determinedly undermine how Romans interacted with Druids or those peoples who followed the Druid ways. Other ancient events where propaganda can be said to have played a role in events are the Great Fire of Rome and the Destruction of the Great Library of Alexandria (See Library_of_Alexandria#Destruction_of_the_Great_Library). The Druids, and perhaps many other non-Roman nations in fact provided a firm, consistent and informed resistence against Rome.
The participants and writers developing the nascent US government addressed and compared the Haudenosaunee and their ways to a state of achievement in administrative self-governance which Rome itself never reached and which they hoped the US would aspire to and achieve. It is in especially in this light that the slander created by the Hurons must be taken into context for what it may in fact be; a grudging expression of both fear and repect, or perhaps even praise for an old and dangerous enemy.
Just as Ancient Rome used propaganda against those who resisted it; which in time was later also used by Roman Christians against Pagans (refer to aforementioned references regarding the Great Library).
There may be a different kind of problem with the link identified as the official website of the Haudenosaunee. The link known as:
http://sixnations.buffnet.net/
The website may have a presence or support problem or other difficulty. I have sent emails to each contact provided on that site where it is listed for the purposes of making contact with someone and all have bounced back to me. My email software clearly lists that of the email addresses provided at the website either the addresses are not "valid" OR the "users are unknown". In any case, a different and yet useful reference in learning about the Haudenosaunee exists here:
http://www.ratical.org/many_worlds/6Nations/index.html
The Iroquois nations' political union and democratic government has been credited as one of the influences on the United States Constitution. See Figure 31 at this link:
http://www.ratical.org/many_worlds/6Nations/EoL/chp8.html#fig31
== Druids, Romans and relationship to the Iroquois confederacy ==
I read the prior critique and considered it useful. If I were writing a tome regarding the history of propaganda or slander as a political tool of control, then I might be excused for the digressions in the areas I made. However, my intent in weaving my comments here were more narrow and as such I cut out the other references because they are not central to my original intent of providing a different researched view of the origin of the word Iroquois.

==Feedback from Historian==
The Wikipedia Help mailing list has received the following e-mail from a reader, a history graduate at the University of Pennsylvania:
"The United States Constitution was partly modelled on the Iroquois League Constitution."
This is presented as a statement of fact, which is highly questionable.
Question 1: Who "modelled" the US Constitution on the Iroquois League Constitution?
Question 2: Further, WHAT specifically was modelled into the U.S. Constitution from the Iroquois?
If "The Confederacy was based, at the time of the arrival of the Europeans, in what is now upstate New York, as well as parts of Pennsylvania, Ontario, and Quebec", how is it that it got incorporated by James Madison, into the U.S. Constitution, who was from VIRGINIA?
Further, where did James Madison pick up his copy of the "wampum" from the Iroquois?
My conclusion is that whoever wrote this little article, was exercising in wishful thinking or "Revisionalism" of U.S. History.
What and where are their historical REFERENCES?
In my reply I will note the existing caveat about many historians not being convinced. However, the quote from the historian has a footnote but the footnote is not listed anywhere. Would it be possible to either provide the footnote or provide another quote from a reputable historian doubting the claims.
Thanks for all the work on the article. Capitalistroadster
I think your history graduate didn't probe very much and needs to delve a little deeper. I browsed the six nations web site and found three relevant footnotes citing authoritative sources. (There may be more). Footnotes 18 and 19 show that the Iroquois were present at sessions of the Continental Congress. I couldn't say whether or not they were present at the Constitutional Convention, but that point is irrelevant. Some of the delegates there were almost certainly aware of the views of the Iroquois. Footnote 30 shows that Adams (and I suspect other founders) considered the Iroquois model as well as several other forms of government when they crafted ours. As for Franklin and Jefferson, he also might want to check out The Forgotten Founders, which includes a very rich list of primary and secondary sources. Vern Reisenleiter
I have included a link and excerpt (hopefully not overlengthy) from what appears to be an excellent and balanced investigation of the dispute by Brian Cook. I feel this is a valuable resource about the controversy.
If the suggestion that whites helped draft the Haudensaunee constitution is considered racist, why is the suggestion that the Haudensaunee helped draft the U.S. constitution not considered likewise?
Joescallan
== The Iroquois had no influence on the U.S. Constitution except as a general example of unity or confederation ==
It's quite correct that some statesmen, both Iroquois and colonial, remarked rhetorically that the colonists ought to be better united, and that some of them pointed out the Iroquois as an example of several entities that had managed to form a league, the idea being "If they can unite, so can you." But that is the extent of "Iroquois influence on the U.S. Constitution."
It is not at all true that the U.S. Federal system is "based on" or "copied from" the structure of the League. The fact is that the people of the thirteen British colonies, which became the United States, had no notion of Native American political or social organization, and no idea how the Iroquois League was organized. Anyone can verify this by reading the Federalist Papers, which are full of descriptions and analyses of European political systems ancient and contemporary, but nothing about the Iroquois or any other Native American system of governance. The authors were absolutely ignorant on the latter subject, as were the entire citizenry of those colonies. Tom129.93.17.66
The average colonist may not have been very informed, but several of the founding fathers had personal contact with the Iroquois. 'Any other' is less relevant; the socio-governmental system of the League stood out. It would make sense to look at the example of a succesful neighbour rather than copy the old world that you left for a better future. Guido den Broeder (talk)
A few problems:
At the time, the Iroquois were not a succcessful neighbor, but a recently conquered enemy.
They were conquered in part because their federation had broken, pitting nation against nation.
Those of the 1787 conventioneers who most clearly set the outlines of the new document had the least experience with Iroquois.
In later discussions and memoirs, they mentioned many examples and theories, but not the Iroquois.
Even if well founded, such hypotheses would be much more relevant in a discussion of the new document, than here. Jim.henderson (talk)
FYI, the Iroquois were never conquered. They have their own government, judicial system, flag and passport. Guido den Broeder (talk)
== Deganawidah and Hiawatha ==
Deganawidah had the orenda,the inner spiritaul power of genius. Hiawatha was his speechmaker. The relationship riminds one of that of Moses and Aaron in the Old Testament ;it was Moses who conferred on the moutaintops with the Lord,while Aaron spoke to the people on behalf of his tonge-tied brother.
After Deganawidah had concieved the idea of the League of the Iroquios, Hiawatha paddled his white canoe from tribe to tribe, persuading them to consider the plan. The last to agree was the onondaga, whose chief, fierce Atatarho, insisted that his tribe must have chairmanship of the council. Finallt they hammered out the code that began, “I, Deganawidah, and the Confederate Chiefs, now uproot the tallest pine tree, and into the cavity thereby made we cast all weapons of war. Into the depths of the earth, deep down into thbe underearth currents of water flowing to unknown regions, we cast all weapons of strife. We bury them from sight and we plant again thge tree thus shall the Great Peace be established.”
==Paragraph removed from article==
I removed this from the article:
"There exists another, perhaps more compelling, version explaining the origin of the word "Iroquois," as the French combination of two distinct terms used in the language of the Haudenosaunee. The participants and writers developing the nascent US government compared the Haudenosaunee and their ways to a state of achievement in administrative self-governance that Rome itself never reached, and an ideal that they hoped the US would aspire to and achieve."
The second half is denied by what was the immediately following paragraph. The first half may be useful - buit fails to tell us what the two terms were or what they meant or indeed who believes this alternate theory. Rmhermen
==Questionable Link==
I'd say that the History and origins of the Five Nations of the Iroquois link is at best questionable. It's a poorly written article, on a site that's founded to oppose Iroquois interest in upstate New York.
I'll confess to knowing little about the topic myself, I really only know what I've read in a couple books, none of the scholarly works. This article clearly is not written in a scholarly format. Correction: Do'h what academic background? UCE is the group, not some college. The only source that I wouldn't question just from a glance on the basis of either date or originator is the National Geographic article. And that's not particularly crucial to his point.
At the end he admits to glaring contradictions in his article, but says that that doesn't change the veracity of his claims.
If there actually is such a controversy as this fellow presents, it should be included in the article, not just as a supplementary link. If not and the guy's just a crackpot, why do we have it in here?
I'd like to propose removing the link on two bases:
1. It reads like a poorly written rant.
2. The factual basis seems questionable.
3. It's not what people coming to this page would be looking for.
Oh, and I'm Quintucket, I'm having password difficulty with both Wikipedia and my email. It's been so long since I've had to type my passwords (which aren't the defaults on either) that I forgot.
But anywhen, sign me Quintucket, once I get my account functional again I'll confirm.
==Material from article "Iroquoian languages"==
The following paragraph was cut from the article Iroquoian languages since it only concerns the Iroquois culture (and the article is about a language family that includes the Huron and Cherokee). I think the material is superfluous to this article. Joseph B
The Iroquois were made up of a group or league of tribes that settled much of the land which presently spans from upstate New York to western Ohio. They were not nomadic but preferred to live in villages of many multi-roomed longhouses, built with saplings and bark or thatch. These longhouses could be up to 300 feet long. Villages were occupied for about 25-50 years. The Iroquois relied greatly on domestication of plant foods, but also supplemented their diet with hunting and gathering. Food such as corn, squash, beans, and other crops were cultivated, often on large fields where forest had been cut and burned for planting. It can be stated that they practiced a system of shifting horticulture. They spent much time on cultivation, harvesting, the preparatration of maize, and storing food. They stored their crops in various types of pottery jars. Pots were specialized by being much sturdier, constructed to withstand thermal stress, but were sensitive to mechanical stress. Iroquian pottery could also be used for a variety of reasons or uses. They were great for preparing maize. Excavated grains, pottery and other evidence suggests that a typical Indian meal consisted of soup made from different plants and animals, with corn as a staple in their diets.
== Seven Generations ==
This article doesn't address the fact or fiction of the Iroquois belief that decisions made considered the impact on the next seven generations. Sounds mythical but it would be interesting if true. Google iroquois "seven generations" for more.Yeago
It's not mythical, but can be found in recorded speeches and is still part of the Iroquois culture today. Guido den Broeder (talk)

==17th century population figure==
I find the population figure of 12,000 to be unbelievably low. Is it possible this is the number of warriors they could field instead? That would make more sense. Speciate
The population count surely dropped considerably during the 17th century because of all the warfare but yes, this estimate sounds low. Guido den Broeder (talk)
May I offer something from my research, respectfully? I'm sure this is not correct because it takes not consideration of Canada and other back country areas etc etc

8160 Warriors 11690 This was found when I was researching military reports concerning what our older US Military Pensioner's records have written as the "Old War" of the 1790s. I could be wrong, this would represent warriors.
BTW, It seems somebody researched Bacon's War concerning the Doegs actions causing the Susquehanoak and Occoneechee/Governor Spotswood incident in Virginia, (The remaining Virginia Susquehanoak element allowed to take refuge with your Nation,) offering you compliments... Conaughy (talk) —Preceding comment was added at
Within the text of your article reads: "Some old histories state that the Iroquois defeated the Susquehannock during this time period, but no record of a defeat has been found and it can be stated that no defeat occurred." Perhaps I should share this find; Wilcomb E Washburn, "The Governor and the Rebel." I have read that "He's the one who dug up a number of new documents in England." Some of the Penn Susquehanoak retreated or splintered, take your pick of words, to Virginia to a Virginia river island on the James, I believe it was the James River above Richmond, Wood's fort back then. Legend has that your defeat(?), it was over a cannon traded to the Susquehanoak by the Dutch and they soon ran out of ball & powder, but that's legend I suppose. Some scholars declare that the Merrin were a Virginia sept of Susquehanna and others have cataloged them as Siouan, so I don't know about them. But, the Bacon War incident were indeed whom the colonial Virginians called, Susquehanna and your article is those as you have it, allowed to take refuge.

== Pre-contact culture ==
Is it known when the Iroquois made the transition from the Stone Age to the Iron Age?
Musicwriter (talk)
The Iroquois made the transition from the Stone Age to the Iron Age when European settlers introduced iron tools.
== Apoequois ==
I have a source which references a tract of land which "...was called by the French the Prairie Apoequois, from the Indians who lived there in early times." No G-hits on Apoequois, of course this is more than a coincidence, but what would the linguistics dudes make of this? Anyone have any clues?PreciousRoi (talk)
== King William's War ==
The article states that the Iroquois remained neutral during King William's War. This is incorrect - they allied themselves with the English colonists. After the peace treaty in 1697 between France and England, the Iroquois remained at war with France until - as this article, correctly, implies - 1701. Rebel Redcoat (talk)
Agreed. What what was the Iroquois involvement in this war? There was the attack on La Chine, but this may have occurred before the war officially started. For Queen Anne's War, the article uses the awkward term "mostly neutral" because even though they seemed to be allied with the English the Iroquois were not actively involved. BradMajors (talk)
== Basque Fishermen and pseudohistory ==
I suppose it is remotely possible Basque Fishermen coined the term, "Iroquois". However, this is extremely unlikely. See pseudohistory. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.177.195.201 (talk)
== Evil? ==
I changed "evil" to "uncooperative and warlike" in the "Pre-contact" section in reference to Tadadaho. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.59.192.173 (talk)
Why? Guido den Broeder (talk)
I've changed it back and added a ref to support.

== Offensive link ==
I checked the "offensive" link. Seemed awfully well documented and matches several other things I have read over the years.
Please remember: In an encyclopedia it is impossible to be offensive with the truth. If you want to remove something - challenge its veracity - not its political correctness.Aaaronsmith (talk)
Personally, I could care less whether it's "politically correct" or not; I do know that when I began to read it, I very quickly began to lose track of the number of factual errors, misinterpretations of current mainstream thought in both northeastern history and archaeology and applications of outmoded theoretical positions that I encountered. In my mind, that's not a good sign in a website that's being linked to in a Wikipedia article, not even as an "external link" offering. Deconstructhis (talk)
I forgot to mention that anyone who may have a general interest in exploring some of the broad themes found in the link that I removed in a far less "eccentric" and politically driven context might want to check out:
