for my article I would first edit a little bit more in the introduction. how was this work of art been found. In addition, I may add more history about the battle. Then I will add more details about the whole composition before jumping to two main figures in the mosaic. How this music was saw in roman.

resources:-

I have two book which I think will help me with adding details about the work of art and little bit history behind the artist.

first book = Apelles: The Alexander Mosaic by Paolo Moreno Author) Book

and the description is :- A well illustrated and highly detailed study of the Alexander Mosaic which once furnished the floor of the House of the Faun in Pompeii. Moreno discusses the background to the mosaic, speculating on which battle may have been depicted, when the piece was produced and by which artist. The composition of the scene, the figures portrayed and the artistic style and conventions are discussed in detail and other works of art are consulted in Moreno's attempt to link the mosaic with the work of the artist Apelles. Includes many close-ups of the mosaic in color.

Second book=The Alexander Mosaic: Stories of Victory and Defeat (Cambridge Studies in Classical Art and Iconography) by Ada Cohen

and the description is :- The Alexander Mosaic: Stories of Victory and Defeat focuses on one of the richest, most complex and visually stunning monuments of classical antiquity. Contributing to a vast tradition of scholarship, which dates back to the discovery of the Mosaic in 1831, Ada Cohen here engages with, but departs from, a core of positivist assumptions that characterize this literature. In this study, she examines the Mosaic as it may have functioned in two different contexts, first as a Greek painting of the fourth century B.C., and then as a Roman mosaic of ca. 100 B.C.

''This one is a website which was interesting to read which may or may not apply for this article."How the Alexander’s Mosaic was seen by Romans". History Of Macedonia. Retrieved 2017-10-05.''

·        Description

·        Duplicate

The Alexander mosaic was found in one of the residence at Pompeii since 1831. It was created out of one million tesserae with opus vermiculated technique that perform as painterly brush strokes. With red, yellow, white and black color plate this work of art originate fourth centuries painting style. Functioning like a large carpet at its own time this mosaic Measures 3.13 meter by 5.82 meter on the floor. After being damaged by A.D 62 earthquake this mosaic was mended during 79 A.D to be preserved.

Alexander mosaic shows a battle of Macedonian with Persian Empire; where Alexander a dominating figure in whole composition is presented through juxtaposition of his body in the work. Complicity of the composition became visible when we look at the chaotic overlapping figures of battling warriors, wounded warriors on the ground and horses in front of this art work. This work of art was anticipated to be a chase to kill Darius king of Persia for victory of a heroically battle and power.

In the composition, Alexander charges in from the left at the head of his men, cutting through the Persian resistance as he goes. One Persian falls victim to his spear as his horse founders beneath hint, covered in blood. But Alexander's real target is Darius, who stands high in his chariot, reaching out with a gesture of entreaty whose exact meaning will occupy us later, an aide struggles to control the horse Thai always accompanied him in case his chariot were disabled' Meanwhile, his charioteer is intent on escape. He whips up his team, crushing two Persians under the hooves of the wildly plunging horses. Darius's Royal Guard cluster around the fleeing vehicle, king's sudden throws himself into chaos and flights.

In 2003, artists from the International Center for the Study and Teaching of Mosaic in Ravenna, Italy, proposed to the archaeological superintendent of Pompeii that they would produce a precise replica of the Alexander Mosaic and display it in its original setting. Once Guzzo and the board of directors approved the project, mosaic Master Severo Bignami and his team of seven artisans from CISEM began the task of actually creating the copy. First they took a full-size photo of the mosaic in Naples (the huge mosaic is 9 by 18 feet). Then they made a tracing of the photo with a dark marker and covered it with a thin layer of tissue to make a negative impression. Now they had their design. One of the next challenges the mosaicists faced was to design a frame that would actually hold the mosaic. Instead of using a single large wooden one covered in lime as the ancient mosaicists might have done, the Italians decided to use 44 separate clay frames and work on the mosaic section by section.

User:One Heart Global

http://www.oneheartglobal.org/

Jacob Kimchy founded One Heart in memory of his father, Rami Kimchy, who was killed on May 7, 2002 in a terrorist attack in Rishon Letzion, Israel. Rami was waiting outside of the Sheffield Club at 11 pm that evening in his taxi. When his customer did not arrive, he went in to see what was keeping him. At the same time, a 20 year old terrorist entered the club, killing 15 people, including Rami, and injuring another 85. That night, Jacob was having a late dinner when he received a call about the attack. He went directly to the scene to assist the survivors, and saw his father's car outside of the club. After the attack, Jacob wanted to find a way to help other victims of terror around the world, which lead to the founding of One Heart.

The psychological effects of a terrorist's action can often be experienced years after the incident, at which time help may no longer be available. Public recollection of the incident has faded and the victim maybe left with a crippling physical or emotional disability. Global assistance towards victims of terror has often been initially swift at the group level. However, sustained assistance for the individual is often minimal and fades with the world's collective memories of the event. It is recognition of these shortfalls, and in hopes of providing long-term assistance for those who are without the crucial assistance, that One Heart was established. One Heart helps victims of terror across the globe to overcome long lasting terror induced psychological and physical trauma. One Heart offers assistance for psychological needs of victims and family members and provides for plastic surgery and other longer term needs that are often not provided by insurance. We also create programs in which to bring together survivors of terrorism to help them form a community. We remain committed to each victim of a terror attack through our global network. One Heart also raises public consciousness of the often unmet needs of victims of terror.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Line of succession to the former Romanian throne

The result was delete. I checked the Romanian royal family article regarding the merge but it seems all key points are already there. Still, ping me to retrieve the history if needed. Tone 13:24, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

Line of succession to the former Romanian throne

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This throne has been defunct since 1947. WP:DEL-REASON 6: Articles that cannot possibly be attributed to reliable sources, including neologisms, original theories and conclusions, and articles that are themselves hoaxes (but not articles describing notable hoaxes). It is impossible to attribute the current line of succession to this throne to WP:RELIABLE sources, because there is no current line of succession, because monarchy doesn't exist anymore. See also WP:NOTGENEALOGY. There are also WP:BLP concerns about the people who are listed here, including one minor.

So basically, the same reasons as the previous 25 lines of successions to defunct thrones that have been deleted recently (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25). TompaDompa (talk) 12:18, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom.Anonimu (talk) 15:55, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as per nom and above comment. Balle010 (talk) 15:55, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment. This article is actually well-sourced and includes a published "line of succession" according to the formerly-royal family (so it is not OR). I think the article also does a reasonable job of clarifying that the monarchy was abolished. There are multiple third-party sources describing the various intra-familial "decrees", so it's not all coming from the family's official website, either. I think this information could be merged into Kingdom_of_Romania, or at least the article moved to a title that reflects the whole of the dispute rather than just the line of succession. JoelleJay (talk) 19:06, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom --Devokewater @  21:50, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete I note that it actually puts forward two different lines of succession, and to complicate matters further Paul-Philippe Hohenzollern claims to be the rightful head of the House of Romania, and his claim to be a legitimate grandson of King Carol II has been recognised by the courts in some countries. This is a classic example of the sort of dispute which Wikipedia should not be getting involved with. PatGallacher (talk) 00:32, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete It is time to drag Wikipedia kicking and screaming into the 21st-century. This is an article that reflects the worldviews of those who reestablished the Ancient Regime and the old order in the Congress of Vienna. Yes I am saying this article reflects the world-view of the 17th century, imposed through actions in the 19th-century. It reflects a view so far out, that you have to peel back through a violent revolution that was so long ago in Romania that a great many of Wikipedia editors were not alive when it happened. A revolution that happened in the year that the largest number of Wikipedia biography subjects were born. As I say, that revolution had no effect of moving the monarchy back. Maybe as an American I think Monarchism is more dead than it is, and I have done more than any editor to include a broad array of 18th-century monarchs, mainly in Africa and Asia, in the various year by year charts of state leaders, a task that requires a lot of thankless hours and a conparison of List of state leaders in 1759 with List of state leaders in 1773 will show it hardly begun. We need to deal with real power in the real world, and displaced monarchical succession is not it.John Pack Lambert (talk) 00:42, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Great job, I’m sure the daily average of 0-2 people who view those articles you linked will really appreciate that. - dwc lr (talk) 08:02, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment this is a defunct Royal family that will never be on the throne again, this individual has achieved nothing notable. However try living in the UK where they are obsessed by their Royal Family, class system + history.--Devokewater @ 09:33, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep per JoelleJay, succession issues make international news even in The Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/aug/11/prince-nicholas-romania-royal-throne-king-michael Don’t get me wrong, despite being well sourced as JoelleJay points out, this article will be deleted and for completely spurious reasons because it’s a pure numbers game. And unfortunately we have a number of Editors who don’t like royal topics and can’t comprehend that other people may find it of use or interest. Unfortunately Wikipedia has fallen victim of the Class Wars, Culture Wars etc of recent times- dwc lr (talk) 08:02, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Reply I had a look at this article, it flashed up a flag that the article is over 5 years old. It seems that "king" Michael is considering whether to remove his grandson from the line of succession.  This is exactly the sort of problem which some people have been flagging up: is the current line of succession of a deposed monarchy determined by the rules at the the time this monarchy was deposed, or can the current supposed monarch change these rules?  It is outside the scope of Wikipedia to decide these issues.  This point might conceivably be included in an article on these people, but encyclopedic content is more than something a few people might be interested in. PatGallacher (talk) 17:51, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I should clarify that I think there is a lot of sourced information in the article that belongs somewhere, but the basis of the article shouldn't be just the "current succession" to the throne since that is specifically a Romanian royalist POV and also doesn't reflect the whole situation. I think Norden1990's suggestion of merging the material with the line of succession section of the Romanian royal family article would be a reasonable compromise. JoelleJay (talk) 16:01, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. --Norden1990 (talk) 21:57, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge some content to Romanian royal family. Such an article can provide a NPOV without implying that there is any prospect of re-accession.  In the case of Romania, one of the issues is that the Communists forced the king to abdicate, but is an abdication under duress legitimate?  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:09, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * John Balliol abdicated as King of Scotland in 1296 under duress from the English, but nobody believes that we can establish the subsequent level of succession to the Scottish throne. PatGallacher (talk) 18:12, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, abdication under duress still counts, nor is abdication necessary. If a country abolishes its monarchy through constitutional change, it makes no difference whatsoever whether the former king (or royalty fandom) accede to the altered circumstance or not. Agricolae (talk) 09:28, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge selectively to Romanian royal family. While the speculative lines of succession aren't encyclopedic, there is a fair bit of sourced content about the current state of the Romanian royal family, perceptions of it, and disputes over succession which would make a reasonable addition to that article.

Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/Saint Louis University/Evolutionary Biology (Fall 2017)

Week 1
Welcome to your Wikipedia project's course timeline. This page will guide you through the Wikipedia project for your course. Be sure to check with your instructor to see if there are other pages you should be following as well.

This page breaks down writing a Wikipedia article into a series of steps, or milestones. These steps include online trainings to help you get started on Wikipedia.

Your course has also been assigned a Wikipedia Content Expert. Check your Talk page for notes from them. You can also reach them through the "Get Help" button on this page.

To get started, please review the following handouts:

 * Editing Wikipedia pages 1–5
 * Evaluating Wikipedia

This week, everyone should have a Wikipedia account.

Week 2

 * Create an account and join this course page, using the enrollment link your instructor sent you.
 * It's time to dive into Wikipedia. Below, you'll find the first set of online trainings you'll need to take. New modules will appear on this timeline as you get to new milestones. Be sure to check back and complete them! Incomplete trainings will be reflected in your grade.
 * When you finish the trainings, practice by introducing yourself to a classmate on that classmate’s Talk page.

It's time to think critically about Wikipedia articles. You'll evaluate a Wikipedia article, and note suggestions for improving it on the article's Talk page.

 * Complete the "Evaluating Articles and Sources" training (linked below).
 * Choose an article, and consider some questions (but don't feel limited to these):
 * Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference?
 * Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
 * Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?
 * Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?
 * Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?
 * Check a few citations. Do the links work? Is there any close paraphrasing or plagiarism in the article?
 * Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?
 * Choose at least 2 questions relevant to the article you're evaluating. Leave your evaluation on the article's Talk page. Be sure to sign your feedback with four tildes — Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:49, 12 December 2017 (UTC).

 * Review page 6 of your Editing Wikipedia guidebook.
 * Work with your instructor to develop a topic for your wikipedia page.

Familiarize yourself with editing Wikipedia by adding a citation to an article. There are two ways you can do this:

 * Add 1-2 sentences to a course-related article, and cite that statement to a reliable source, as you learned in the online training.
 * The Citation Hunt tool shows unreferenced statements from articles. First, evaluate whether the statement in question is true! An uncited statement could just be lacking a reference or it could be inaccurate or misleading. Reliable sources on the subject will help you choose whether to add it or correct the statement.

 * Meet with your instructor to finalize your topic

Week 3

 * On the Students tab, assign your chosen topic to yourself.
 * In your sandbox, write a few sentences about what you plan to contribute to the selected article.
 * Think back to when you did an article critique in terms of the types of information you would add to a page, and post some ideas in your chosen topic article's talk page.
 * Start compiling a list of relevant, reliable books, journal articles, or other sources. Post that bibliography to the talk page of the article you'll be working on, and in your sandbox (you should add 10 sources that have potential to be useful). Make sure to check in on the Talk page to see if anyone has advice on your bibliography.
 * Start building an outline of your article, and post the outline to your sandbox as you develop it (for this week, just a quick sketch of the main topics you want to include is sufficient)

Week 4
Annotate 2 articles per the form provided by your instructor (email your instructor if you do not yet have the form)

Week 5
Email the rest of your article annotations to your instructor (using the same form).

Expand your outline to become more comprehensive, noting where specific sources will be used.

Provide a sketch of the general areas you will cover in your article and post in your sandbox as well as the article's talk page. If useful, indicate the types of references you will use for different sections.

Week 6
'''First steps to creating a new article

'''

 * Write an outline of your topic in the form of a standard Wikipedia article's "lead section." Write it in your sandbox. (this is not the same as the outline you submitted before, rather it is an official Wikipedia page outline)
 * A "lead" section is not a traditional introduction. It should summarize, very briefly, what the rest of the article will say in detail. The first paragraph should include important, broad facts about the subject (in fact, you will likely only have 1 paragraph of ~2 sentences). A good example is Ada Lovelace. See Editing Wikipedia page 9 for more ideas.

Resources: Editing Wikipedia pages 7–9

 * Keep working on transforming your article into a complete first draft. Get draft ready for peer-review, and post it in your sandbox.
 * If you'd like a Content Expert to review your draft, now is the time! Click the "Get Help" button in your sandbox to request notes.

Week 8
You probably have some feedback from your instructor and possibly other Wikipedians. It's time to work with that feedback to improve your article!

 * Read Editing Wikipedia pages 12 and 14.
 * Return to your draft or article and think about the suggestions. Decide which ones to start implementing. Reach out to your instructor or your Content Expert if you have any questions.
 * Indicate how you will address the comments in your talk page

Once you've made improvements to your article based on peer review feedback, it's time to move your work to Wikipedia proper - the "mainspace."

'''Creating a new article?

'''

 * Read Editing Wikipedia page 13, and follow those steps to move your article from your Sandbox to Mainspace.
 * You can also review the Sandboxes and Mainspace online training.

'''Editing an existing article?

'''

 * NEVER copy and paste your draft of an article over the entire article. Instead, edit small sections at a time.
 * Copy your edits into the article. Make many small edits, saving each time, and leaving an edit summary. Never replace more than one to two sentences without saving!

Week 10
Do additional research and writing to make further improvements to your article, based on suggestions and your own critique. This will be your third full draft. Also: link your article to two other Wikipedia articles, and link two other Wikipedia articles to yours!

 * Read Editing Wikipedia page 12 to see how to create links from your article to others, and from other articles to your own. Try to link to 3–5 articles, and link to your article from 2–3 other articles.
 * Summarize your improvements, addressing reviewer comments, on the talk page

Week 11
Continue to expand and improve your work, and format your article to match Wikipedia's tone and standards. Remember to contact your Content Expert at any time if you need further help!

Week 12
It's the final week to add last developments to your article. This will be the one that is graded for the final article grade!

 * Read Editing Wikipedia page 15 to review a final check-list before completing your assignment.
 * Don't forget that you can ask for help from your Content Expert at any time!

Everyone should have finished all of the work they'll do on Wikipedia, and be ready for grading.

Talk:International taxation

FIRPTA
Want FIRPTA added to this?EECavazos 23:11, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Content on tax treaties and multistate tax schemes like EU VAT
This article could use some additional perspective of the position of tax treaties in the international taxation as well as international tax schemes like the EU VAT. Much of this article seems focused on national tax schemes for international taxation, and the amount of content on this is pretty appropriate because that is so much of what constitutes international taxation. But I suppose to add tax treaties and EU VAT would result in a slight realignment in the introductory paragraph. This would probably need some agreement or at least the chance to provide opposition to such a prospet.EECavazos (talk) 00:17, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Peer-review
Peer review: This expanded version has been partially globalized. I'd like a reviewer with significant international tax experience to expand further and simply REVIEW it, making appropriate edits. Thanks.Sfcardwell (talk) 03:54, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

 * I don't have time to give this article a full review of the content (and I don't have a lot of international tax experience), but it has a bit to go to move to the next level of Wikipedia standards - making progress though. :-) I took a little bit of time to make some Manual of Style and Guide to Layout changes, but much more is needed in this regard.  It is in some need of wikilinks, organization, and copyedits.  The lead needs to be expanded to summarize the article.  Their needs to be more sources, particularly something in the lead that goes toward the base definitions put forward for International taxation.  The article needs to clearly define the definition in the first sentence.  After looking, the content looks greatly improved and a nice addition for sources.  There were a lot of changes recently and I think the differences need to be worked out if there is any value in the other material.  Thanks for your additions Sfcardwell. I'm going to try and give it a read through and tighten it up if I can.  There seems to be a very large focus on income taxes.  Does this field cover tarrifs, VATS, or other international taxes on imports/exports.  Does the field cover some aspects of tax competition?  How much of these concepts should be included?  Take a look at what can be merged into other sections (Other aspects is one).  Take a look at what can be grouped better, the TOC is pretty long.   Morphh   (talk) 2:13, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

 * The introduction and overview needs to be merged into the lead (that's its purpose) or distributed to the particular introductory subsections. Many of the references are personal comments or primary sources that could be subject to much interpretation, please try to use reliable secondary sources whenever possible and avoid original research.  If it is an opinion, then try to attribute it.  Morphh   (talk) 14:00, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

The following suggestions were generated by a semi-automatic javascript program, and might not be applicable for the article in question. You may wish to browse through User:AndyZ/Suggestions for further ideas. Thanks, Morphh   (talk) 13:22, 27 June 2009 (UTC) 13:22, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Please expand the lead to conform with guidelines at Lead. The article should have an appropriate number of paragraphs as is shown on WP:LEAD, and should adequately summarize the article.[?]
 * Consider adding more links to the article; per Manual of Style (links) and Build the web, create links to relevant articles.[?]
 * This article has no or few images. Please see if there are any free use images that fall under the Image use policy and fit under one of the Image copyright tags that can be uploaded. To upload images on Wikipedia, go to Special:Upload; to upload non-fair use images on the Wikimedia Commons, go to commons:special:upload.[?]
 * Per Manual of Style (headings), avoid using special characters (ex: &+{}[]) in headings.
 * Per WP:WIAFA, this article's table of contents (ToC) may be too long – consider shrinking it down by merging short sections or using a proper system of daughter pages as per Summary style.[?]
 * Watch for redundancies that make the article too wordy instead of being crisp and concise. (You may wish to try Tony1's redundancy exercises.)
 * Vague terms of size often are unnecessary and redundant - “some”, “a variety/number/majority of”, “several”, “a few”, “many”, “any”, and “all”. For example, “ All pigs are pink, so we thought of a number of ways to turn them green.”
 * Please ensure that the article has gone through a thorough copyediting so that it exemplifies some of Wikipedia's best work. See also User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 1a.[?]

 * I've tried to address some of the issues above to bring the article along. I've reassessed it as a C class.  I think the biggest issue at this stage is the need for additional references to secondary sources.   Morphh   (talk) 21:30, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Enterprise restructure
Should we expand/move/? the section on enterprise restructure? As written, it focuses more on non-flow-through entity changes (such as corporate reorganizations). Should there be a partnership aspect? Should it be under sourcing (doesn't thrill me), Individuals vs. enterprises, where? Comments appreciated by tax folks.Sfcardwell (talk) 22:47, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

Map appears to be OR

I'm not aware of a sufficiently comprehensive single source from which to make or even verify such a map. Comments? Deletion?Oldtaxguy (talk) 01:30, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Agree - needs source if it's to stay. I see you've posted on the user's talk, so we'll wait to hear back.  If we don't have something in a couple days, I'd pull it or we could pull it now and reinsert if sources are provided.   Morphh   (talk) 14:33, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I added the sources on the map's description page. Heitordp (talk) 13:01, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I spot checked some sources, and also checked some other sources. You did not add sources for about 100 countries. The map has inaccuracies, including at least:  Saudi Arabia (inverse of residence system: residents not taxed, nonresidents are), Pitcairn (not a country; population only 67), Akrotiri and Dhekelia (not a country; part of Cyprus), Kiribati (appears to be shown as territorial, but the cite (tax law) indicates residents are taxed on worldwide income.  Also, the mere fact that there are over 70 sources for one map indicates conclusively that it is OR.  If it were accurate, I would applaud your efforts. However, WP is not the place to publish OR. I have deleted. I would note that one of the Big 4 CPA firms has a guide listing only 140 countries. It is the most comprehensive of the books by the Big 4, but still very incomplete.Oldtaxguy (talk) 00:57, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

What do you mean I didn't add sources for about 100 countries? I added sources for all 194 independent countries recognized by the UN, their 40 inhabited dependent territories, plus Taiwan, Kosovo, Palestine, Western Sahara, Northern Cyprus and Somaliland. You can count the number of countries and territories in the list on the map description page, the total is 240. Regarding the supposed inaccuracies:

 * 1. Saudi Arabia taxes the local income of residents who are not citizens of the 6 GCC countries. For residents who are citizens of these countries, there is mandatory zakat instead, which is calculated on net worth and certain kinds of income, in a worldwide basis. I included Saudi Arabia in the residency system because of mandatory zakat. There are a few other exceptional cases: Cuba and the Philippines tax the worldwide income of resident citizens and only local income of resident foreigners, so I included them in the residency system; North Korea does not tax the income of its resident citizens but taxes the worldwide income of resident foreigners, so I included it in the residential system; Andorra does not tax the income of its residents but taxes the local income of nonresidents, so I included it in the territorial system. I'm open to discussion regarding these cases, maybe they can be in a different color on the map.

 * 2. Pitcairn and Akrotiri and Dhekelia are not independent countries, and neither are the other dependent territories, but almost all of them have a taxation system separate from their controlling states. Residents of Pitcairn and of Akrotiri and Dhekelia do not pay income tax to the United Kingdom or to Cyprus. Pitcairn is the permanently inhabited territory with the smallest population, but it is still a separate jurisdiction with its own laws.

 * 3. Kiribati is correctly shown as residency-based (dark blue), maybe you mistook one of the other islands for Kiribati. The islands of Oceania shown as territorial (light blue) are Palau, Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Tuvalu, Tokelau and French Polynesia. The ones shown with no income tax (green) are Nauru, Vanuatu, Wallis and Futuna, Norfolk Island and Pitcairn. The others are shown as residency-based.

The map is accurate according to the sources. If you find any mistakes, let me know and I'll fix them. Many maps in Wikipedia have small mistakes and are constantly being corrected or updated. Small mistakes are not a reason to delete a map completely.

The main source, the guide from Ernst & Young, describes the taxation of 152 countries and territories in detail, including rules for residency, immigration, income tax rates, other taxes, and tax treaties. The map only shows the kind of taxation system used by each country, it's not complex information that requires the study by a financial firm.

I don't think this is OR just because there are 73 sources. The list of countries by population, for example, has a separate source for almost every country. If you think that one of the sources for the map is not reliable and I can't find any other source, I can put the corresponding country as gray (unknown). If anything, at least the 152 countries and territories in the Ernst & Young source should stay. But you can't say that the entire map is OR. Again, I'm open to discussion, and I would like to add the map once the issues are resolved. Heitordp (talk) 07:51, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Since it's been more than a month and no one commented on my response, I readded the map, reorganized the section on taxation systems, and added a table summarizing how all countries and territories tax local and foreign income of individuals, complete with all references. I also added an explanation of citizenship-based taxation with current and past examples.

 * The taxation of corporate income is more complex, as there are various forms of exclusion of foreign income, so I didn't generate a similar table or map for corporations. If anyone more knowledgeable about the subject wants to make an attempt, a good reference to start, covering most countries, is here. Heitordp (talk) 10:39, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

Hungary
Shouldn't hungary be listed as a citizenship based system? This is even in one of the sources: — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:36D:2800:2D1A:3CA6:AB13:182D:8A69 (talk) 22:37, 6 July 2018 (UTC)
 * As the sources explain, Hungary adopts citizenship-based taxation in principle but grants two very broad exceptions: it doesn't tax foreign income of its nonresident citizens who also have another nationality or who reside in a country that has a tax treaty with Hungary. More than 99% of nonresident Hungarians satisfy at least the second exception. Heitordp (talk) 22:51, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

Hungary regards all of its citizens as tax residents. The only exception are people holding multiple citizenships AND not having a registered address (temporary or permanent) inside of Hungary. Those to whom a bilateral tax treaty applies, of which Hungary has around 70, are still regarded as tax residents of Hungary. PERIOD. They may on the other hand be entitled to tax relief. To receive tax relief on the basis of a bilateral tax treaty, one must provide a certificate of tax residency, or its equivalent from the other contracting state.

Therefore Hungary applies citizen-based taxation to its own citizens (except to those who have other nationalities and at the same time do not reside in Hungary). The supposition that this law is enforced only rarely is nothing more than that: a baseless and irrelevant idea. The law is clear, Hungary has citizenship-based taxation for its own citizens and territory-based for all others. In addition, all income is taxable, from the very first penny - therefore the law affects any citizen who has had any income and is not a dual citizen living outside of Hungary.

The above is agreed upon by all major consultancy firms, and most importantly, by the law itself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 21:50, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 * According to this source (in Hungarian), directly from the Hungarian tax administration, Hungary does not tax the foreign income of individuals who are considered Hungarian residents under Hungarian law but are considered residents of another country under the terms of a tax treaty. Both the text and the flow chart on page 3 explain it very clearly. This other source (in English) says the same thing. I had added both sources to the Wikipedia article, and they are still there.
 * As you can see, Hungary allows the tax treaties to override Hungarian law, so although such individuals may still be legally considered tax residents of Hungary, Hungary does not tax their foreign income. Hungary may require them to provide a certificate of tax residency from the other country to apply this rule, but it is merely an administrative procedure to confirm that they really satisfy the residency terms of the treaty. Although it may sound like an exception, this relief is actually the general case in practice because more than 99% of nonresident Hungarians live in countries that have tax treaties with Hungary. I find it misleading to show in the article that Hungary imposes citizenship-based taxation in the same way as the US and Eritrea, which don't allow such relief at all. On the contrary, the US specifically adds a clause to all its tax treaties saying that it can still tax its citizens as if the treaty didn't exist. Therefore, I find it more appropriate to list Hungary in the section with countries that apply citizenship-based taxation only in exceptional cases. Do you agree? Heitordp (talk) 02:43, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

I disagree. You are confusing tax treaties with being considered a tax resident. Tax treaties kick in when a person is considered to be a tax resident in either or both of the contracting states. They are still considered residents for tax purposes, but the purpose of the treaty is to define which country will have the right to tax, and to offer relief from double taxation as per the terms of the treaty. Note that the definition of tax residency differs from country to country and treaty to treaty. And once more, this does not change the basic fact that Hungary considers ALL of its nationals (except double citizens with no registered address inside of Hungary) to be tax residents. That they can get relief from paying tax is another matter entirely.

Now on to your so called data point on the treaties applying to 99% of the nationals. I disagree with this having relevance for two reasons:

- First, you could make the same point for the United States. The US has more tax treaties with foreign countries for the avoidance of double taxation, and arguably most US expats would fall under that. Does that change the fact that the US applies citizen-based taxation? NO. Hungary is no different in this regard.

- On the numbers quoted: they are most likely inaccurate. Most Hungarians do not bother with keeping their address up to date, as there is little incentive - especially in cases of non-treaty countries. Only a relatively small administrative penalty could apply for failing to update an address, therefore the incentive is close to non-existent. Because of this, your data very likely does not reflect reality. And even if it did, it wouldn't change the fact that Hungary considers all of its non-dual citizens to be tax residents.

In short, I don't see why you are so insistent on bending the truth in the case of Hungary. As per your standards the US should also be removed from the list of countries that tax based on citizenship. Unless you are willing to remove the US from the list, you have no reason to remove Hungary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 19:30, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

The IRS exempts Americans working abroad as long as they make under a certain threshold (google: Foreign Earned Income Exclusion) - in the region of $100,000 a year. This is, as far as I know, irregardless of whether they work in a treaty or non-treaty country. This is what your mentioned treaty clauses apply to. Anything earned above that MAY be taxed, but it is still a very a considerable and generous tax-free allowance. Americans have to file, but not pay anything in most cases. Would you not agree that most expats make less than that? Shouldn't you remove the US from the list then since they only tax people making over 100k a year?

Hungary has NO allowance, and ALL worldwide income from the very first cent is subject to tax - unless as discussed above. This is arguably the harshest law out there, especially if you also take the rate of tax into account.

The bottom line is this: the current wording is an accurate reflection of the legislation in place. If you wish to change it, also remove the US and make note of the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. I would prefer staying with the facts though, so please kindly leave the article as it is. If possible, please also change the map to reflect the current situation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 20:11, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

 * The table in the article is supposed to show whether the country taxes the foreign income of its resident foreigners, resident nationals and nonresident nationals. It should show the final reality, taking into account not only the initial law of each country but also the effect of treaties. If Hungary considers its nonresident nationals as "tax residents" but doesn't tax the foreign income of the overwhelming majority of them, I believe that the table should show "no" in the respective column, or "yes" but at least mention this significant exception in the notes. I find it misleading to not mention the exception at all. The tax treaties of Hungary are not merely a relief or a separate matter, because they override national law changing the fundamental basis of taxation for residents of the treaty country.

 * The same point cannot be said about the US. The US does have tax treaties (which by the way are 66, fewer than the 81 of Hungary), but all of them include a clause saying that the US can still tax its citizens as if the treaty didn't exist. Unlike Hungarians, nonresident US citizens don't get any relief from US tax treaties (with small exceptions regarding some pension plans in a few countries). Instead, their relief comes from the foreign earned income exclusion (which I did mention in the article), which as you wrote is available for all countries regardless of treaties. However, this exclusion only applies to income from work, not to income from investments. So a nonresident US citizen who has a salary lower than $100,000 but earns some interest or dividends is still subject to US taxation on that investment income. Combined with the foreign tax credit, the result is indeed that most nonresident US citizens don't actually owe tax to the US, but according to the IRS, 46% of US citizens who file US income tax returns from abroad do owe at least some US tax. It's a significant portion of these people, and not that much lower than the portion of US residents who owe US income tax (76%).

 * The population data that I cited is not based on notification of address to the country of origin, but on the place of birth recorded in the censuses of the countries of residence, as compiled by the UN. Each country counts in its own census all people living there, regardless of nationality, and asks them where they were born. So for example for Hungary, the data shows the number of people who were counted in the census of each country and said that they were born in Hungary. According to this data, 99% of people who were born in Hungary but were counted in censuses outside of Hungary were in countries that have tax treaties with Hungary. It's true that place of birth is not exactly the same as nationality for every person, but statistically they are practically the same numbers, so it can be concluded that about 99% of Hungarian nationals live in countries that have tax treaties with Hungary. This result is not surprising because such countries cover all of Europe and a very large portion of Asia and the Americas, plus others.

 * There are also a few other countries that tax foreign income of nonresident nationals in exceptional circumstances, as mentioned in the article. For example, Italy, Spain and Portugal tax their nationals living in countries considered tax havens, and France taxes its nationals who move to Monaco. In the case of Hungary, it taxes its nationals living in countries that don't have tax treaties with it. All of these cases represent an extremely small portion of the country's nonresident nationals. Therefore, I find it more appropriate to place Hungary in that group, and misleading to place it in the same group as the US.

 * I also find it misleading to mention the tax rate of Hungary as 33.5%, because this rate includes the payroll taxes, which only apply to local income. The foreign income of a Hungarian (residing in a country without a tax treaty) would be subject by Hungary only to the regular income tax rate of 15%.

 * As a compromise, I propose keeping "yes" in the table for Hungary, but also mentioning the treaty exception in the notes and in the text below the table, as this exception applies to practically all nonresident Hungarians. I also propose grouping Hungary with the US in the text below the table, but also grouping them with the other exceptional countries, in a single list. I also propose removing the map altogether, since the situation is complex. What do you think? Heitordp (talk) 01:13, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
 * As there was no response for many days, I made the changes that I proposed. Heitordp (talk) 04:21, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi,

Yes, there was no response as I considered it case closed. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine you would come back with another set of non-sensical arguments in order to save face. Let me go through your points again to explain why they are wrong, and why and how your actions are negatively affecting people:

- statistics you quoted are not reliable because most countries affected are third-word countries that have no treaty with Hungary. These will report 0 Hungarians as they simply have no such data available. Do you truly believe that there are 0 Hungarian residents in these countries? That was a wild assumptions there, and one that is entirely wrong. You could easily find Hungarian companies operating in many developing nations just by a simple google search. Even just one such result for a particular country would prove your numbers showing 0 people worthless.

- Consultancy firms such as PWC, Deloitte and others have correctly established the facts. They have also done the same for all the other countries concerned, the ones you recently edited and changed to citizenship-based. There is a big difference though: in those cases citizenship-based taxation is the exemption, while in the case of Hungary, it is the norm. It is not only the law, it is also the practice. Why do you find yourself qualified to go against the option of all these firms and the law itself?

- American editors, who are under the assumption that they are special and need to emphasize this, will most revert your changes. I will not blame them.

- Thee 33.5% tax in Hungary includes healthcare contributions (19.5%), which are compulsory. There are several other taxes and some optional deductions that constitute the de facto income tax. While that nominally is 15%, these additional taxes (contributions) hike it up significantly, making it one of the highest in Europe and the world - only Belgium levies more in Europe. Again, this makes Hungary very very unique, and is therefore worth emphasizing.

And finally, why what you are doing just for your own benefit (to save face) is so harmful: I can tell from the history of the page that the issue of Hungary has been brought up both in the distant and recent past. You kept reverting edits that were based on facts and evidence, because for some reason you decided you know better. The problem is that Hungarian mainstream media have already picked this misleading information up when explaining that in Hungary you are only a tax resident when spending 183 days or more inside the country. Then the original report was quoted by other media outlets. This is clearly false information, and you could indirectly do significant harm to many people by stating inaccurate facts.

If you think the law is not enforced and do happen to speak Hungarian, have a look at the most recent lists published by the national tax agency listing individuals with the largest tax arrears in the past few years. Some of them have no Hungarian address, but judging by their names are Hungarians. Therefore they are most likely Hungarians living abroad.

Again, let's summarize: There are 3 countries enforcing citizenship-based taxation. Eritrea (not sure about the details), Hungary (no allowance, worldwide) and the US (OVER 100k exemption per year in ANY country). The rest would only apply this strategy in extremely limited cases and for a limited period of time - in other words, exceptional ones. In the case of the 3, and especially in the case of Hungary, this is not the case.

What you are doing has an effect on people and is harmful. Please stick to the facts, the way PWC or Deloitte established them. Or the law itself. This article will be changed by Americans, and rightfully so. It is inaccurate. And before it gets reverted back, many people will come to have a look and take what is here for granted. Let's just swallow our pride and go by what the facts are - 3 countries the on principle tax their citizens. No compromise on the facts. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 03:54, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Fine, let's list the countries as classified by the accounting firms. In this case, the US and Hungary have citizenship-based taxation in general, while Finland, France, Italy, Mexico, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Turkey are exceptional cases. However, I'm not sure about how to list Eritrea and Myanmar. The firms classify Eritrea as territorial taxation and don't even mention the diaspora tax, which is a separate law and has a much lower rate. The firms also describe Myanmar similarly to the US and Hungary, in principle taxing all citizens like residents. Myanmar allows an exemption for foreign salaries of nonresident citizens, similar to the US (but without limit), while still taxing other kinds of income from them. I'm the one who made the observation that the embassies and consulates of Myanmar stopped enforcing this tax in 2012, but it's still in the law, and the accounting firms don't mention the lack of enforcement. So I suppose that it's better to list both Eritrea and Myanmar as general. What do you think?
 * After we agree on the classification, I can also change the map and re-add it to the article. Do you think that it's worth marking the exceptional countries in a different color?
 * I can also re-add the part that you had written about the tax rate and lack of exemption in Hungary. Heitordp (talk) 23:33, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I made these changes. If you still disagree with something, please discuss here. Thanks. Heitordp (talk) 02:13, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

Thank you

Malaysia is no longer a Territorial Tax System since now foreign-source income that has not been taxed at the source is taxable in Malaysia.

Henry Marion Durand

Major-General Sir Henry Marion Durand, (6 November 1812 – 1 January 1871) was a British military officer in the Bengal Army and served as Lieutenant Governor of Punjab from 1870 until his death in 1871.

Early life
Durand was one of two illegitimate sons of Major Henry Percy, a cavalry officer who served in the Peninsular War and later at the Battle of Waterloo, and Marion Durand, a French woman he met while prisoner-of-war in the Napoleonic Wars. Born in Coulandon, France, both his parents died whilst he was young, and he was placed in the care of a family friend Mr. Deans.

He was educated at the East India Company Military Seminary at Addiscombe where he was a contemporary of the future Lord Napier of Magdala who passed out two years before him.

Career
Durand sailed for India in 1829. On-board he developed a friendship with fellow passenger Alexander Duff, however the ship was wrecked on Dassen Island and the friends separated.

On his arrival in India in May 1830, he served initially as Second Lieutenant in the Bengal Engineers. Until 1838 he served chiefly in the north-west provinces, and from 1834 he was Superintendent at Ferozeshah Canal.

In 1838, then Lieutenant Durand gave up his well-paid civil appointment to serve in the engineering department of the expeditionary force to Afghanistan. He served with distinction during the First Anglo-Afghan War however resigned in his post in protest of giving up the entire Bala Hissar to the Afghans, and returned to India.

On his return, Durand was furloughed to England where he became acquainted with Lord Ellenborough. He was offered the post of aide-de-camp to Ellenborough, and on Ellenborough's arrival in India was give the lucrative post of his private secretary.

In June 1843 Durand was promoted to Captain, and the same year married Mary, daughter of Major General Sir John McCaskill. In December 1843 he assisted Ellenborough during the Gwalior campaign, and at its conclusion was awarded the bronze star for Maharajpore. When Ellenborough was dismissed by the East India Company in 1844 Durand lost his role as private secretary, and was later appointed Commissioner of Tenasserim until he was removed from the post in 1846. Durand then sailed to London to protest his removal to the directors of the East India Company, and returned to India with an order that he be reinstated to an equivalent post. The order was however ignored by The Earl of Dalhousie and Durand returned to military service.

During the Second Anglo-Sikh War Durand saw action at the Battle of Chillianwala and Battle of Gujrat. He was attached to the 3rd Division under Brigadier General Colin Campbell who later noted the Durand rendered him "valuable assistance" and that his "warmest acknowledgements" are due to him.

For his war service he promoted to Brevit-Major and appointed Political Agent, a civil role, at Gwalior. From Gwalior he was transferred to Bhopal and in 1853 made Resident of Nagpur. During these years he became a regular contributor to the Calcutta Review on the history and society of India. In 1853 Durand went to England and after three years leave, returned to India in 1856 as a lieutenant colonel.

Indian mutiny of 1857
On his return he was appointed acting Political Agent at Indore, assuming the role in April 1857, the same month as the start of the Indian Rebellion of 1857. On 1 June a mob headed by an officer in Tukojirao Holkar II's army, entered the Residency at Indore, crying out "Kill the Sahibs". Colonel Travers led a charge against the mob for which he was later awarded the Victoria Cross. Thereafter Durand organised an evacuation of the Residency first to Sehore, then Hoshangabad, and finally Bombay.

Having re-grouped Durand accompanied a column led by Sir Charles Stuart for the relief of Mhow Fort. The action was successful, order restored and the Residency at Indore re-built. However, in October rebels assembled a force at Dhar. Durand was involved in operations against the rebels at Mundisore. On 24 November, Durand was summoned to Calcutta and in recognition of his services during the mutiny was raised to the rank of Brevit Colonel.

Council of India
In 1858, under the terms of the Queen's Proclamation issued by Queen Victoria, the Indian possessions of the East India Company came under the direct rule of the British crown. Durand was sent to England to assist in plans to re-organise the Company armies. Whilst in England he was appointed to Council of the Secretary of State for India, remaining in the role for the next three years until he resigned in 1861.

Lord Canning appointed Durand Foreign Secretary of his administration, and he returned to India. In 1865 he was given to the post of Military Member of the Governor General's Council. The following year he was promoted Major General and made Knight Commander of the Star of India.

The Hindoo Patriot later remarked of his time with the council, "He touched upon questions of all descriptions which came before the Council with all the skill and masterliness of an expert...all his utterances were marked by an intelligent appreciation of the want and wishes of the people, by broad sympathies, and by fearless independence." He was a vocal opponent of the Punjaub Tenancy Act, pronounced the North West Municipal Act as an unmitigated sham practically used for the convenience of a few European residents rather than the for the good of the mass of the population, and raised opposition to the Income Tax policy which he described as "odious". Such was the esteem he was held in by locals, the article remarked that he and William Mansfield constituted "the only independent element in the Council and when they left the right hand of the government was lopped off."

Punjab and death
In May 1870, The Earl of Mayo appointed Durant to succeed Sir Donald McLeod as Lieutenant Governor of the Punjab. At his farewell banquet in Simla that month, Durant remarked of his respect and love for the soldiers he fought during the Second Anglo-Sikh War, and his intention to do all he can for the welfare of the people of the province.

On the evening of 31 December 1870, Durand was thrown from an elephant as it attempted to pass under a low gateway in the city of Tonk (now Tank, Pakistan). He fell heavily and died the following day. He was also accompanied by the Nawab of Tank on the same elephant. Durand had been Lieutenant Governor for only six months there. He was buried in Saint Thomas' Church in Dera Ismail Khan, NWFP, British India.

The inscription of his tomb reads:

"Sacred to the memory of Henry Marion Durand Major General Royal Engineers C.B. K.C.S.I. Lieutenant Governor of Punjab. born Novr 15th 1812 – died Jany 1st 1871. He entered the army in 1828 and after serving his country for forty years in the field and in the cabinet, was killed in the discharge of his duty, by a fall from an elephant at Tank – N.W. Frontier."

Personal life
Durand's son, Mortimer Durand, served in the Indian Civil Service and later in the British diplomatic service. He is remembered for drawing the Durand Line, a historically controversial border between Afghanistan and British India (now Pakistan). For a time he lived at Furness Lodge, East Sheen, Richmond.

One of Durand's daughters, Frances Mary Durand, married Major General Charles MacGregor. Another daughter, Ethel Durand, married the naturalist and African explorer James Sligo Jameson.

Talk:Northern Texas Traction Company

Untitled
I added some more information about this system and will add more when I get a chance to look at my books to pick up important dates and names. I changed the listing order of Fort Worth and Dallas since the line was a Fort Worth based company. This company was very aggressive at fighting the encroachment of the automobile and took steps that kept it profitable through the Depression. I will expand that section soon and hope to address some of the reasons why the company gave up the fight in 1934.

Incorrect or incorrectly worded
"In 1905 the street cars were moving at 8 mph, but by 1923 the speed had picked up to 10.1 mph." This quote must have been talking about city streetcars or the contributor forgot to say average speed. At a distance of approximately 30 miles, the trip would have been between 3 and 4 hours at this speed and we know from published schedules this was not the case.

Picross S

Picross S is a series of nonogram puzzle game developed and published by Jupiter for the Nintendo Switch game console. As with all past entries in the series, the game involves the player completing nonograms in the shortest time possible. Picross S is the successor to Jupiter's Picross e series on Nintendo 3DS.

Picross S
The first game in the series, Picross S was released in Japan, Europe, and North America on 28 September 2017. The game received a mixed reception, with reviewers citing its presence of new puzzles as a positive but its blandness and lack of creativity in comparison to past entries as a negative. It released on the Nintendo Switch worldwide on 28 September 2017.

Picross S2
Picross S2 was released in Japan, Europe, and North America on 2 August 2018. This was the first game to add the Clip Picross feature, which allows players to complete a larger picture by filling out small puzzles. These are unlocked by completing every 5th, 10th, and 15th level of a page. The game was received better than Picross S1, but was still criticized for its lack of innovation.

Picross S3
Picross S3 was released in Japan, Europe, and North America on 25 April 2019. It is the highest rated game in the series based on Metacritic review scores. The game was heavily praised for the new Color Picross mode despite only having 30 of the puzzle type. In Color Picross, the picture is determined by the numbers in the top and left of the puzzle, as well as each of the colors being listed in order, leading to more complex and innovative puzzles.

Picross S4
Picross S4 was released in Japan, Europe, and North America on 23 April 2020. Picross S4 was generally liked and positively reviewed by critics due to the simple and classic nonogram gameplay, but was criticized for adding no new gameplay modes.

The only new feature is the Extra menu, which gives the player two large 30x30 puzzles. If you have save files for Picross S1, Picross S2, or Picross S3 on your system, you will receive a special 40x30 puzzle for each game you own. The only way to play every puzzle in the game is to own all of the previous games in the series.

Picross S5
Picross S5 was released in Japan, Europe, and North America on 26 November 2020. This game retains all the same modes and features of Picross S4, and adds two small "quality of life" features. A High Contrast mode was added for Color Picross, which changes the colors to make them easier to differentiate for colorblind players. The total completion time is displayed when all puzzles in a mode are completed, and for the full game once all modes are completed. These features were added to the four previous games in the series via patches released on the same day.

Picross S6
Picross S6 was released in Japan, Europe, and North America on 22 April 2021. This game retains all the same modes and features of Picross S4 and S5. The puzzle grids in Extra Mode now feature alternating colour lines every 5 squares, to make the larger puzzle size easier to parse; this feature was added to Picross S4 and S5 via patches released around the same time.

Picross S7
Picross S7 was released in Japan and Hong Kong on 23 December 2021, in Europe and Australia on 27 December 2021, and in North America on 10 January 2022. This game retains all the same modes and features of Picross S4 and S5, and adds touch screen support for handheld mode.

Picross S8
Picross S8 was released in Japan, Europe, and North America on 29 September 2022. This game retains all the same modes and features of Picross S4 and S5, and also adds a multiplayer function for up to 4 players at a time.

Picross S9
Picross S9 was released in Japan, Europe, and North America on 27 April 2023.

Spin-offs
As with their Picross e series, Jupiter has used the mechanics and UI of Picross S as the basis for a number of licensed spin-off picross games.

Kemono Friends Picross
Kemono Friends Picross was released in Japan, Europe, and North America on 4 October 2018. Based on the Kemono Friends media franchise.

Picross Lord of the Nazarick
Picross Lord of the Nazarick was released in Europe and North America on 25 July 2019. Based on the Overlord anime.

Picross S Genesis & Master System Edition
A Sega-themed entry featuring puzzles based on 59 classic Sega Genesis and Master System games including Sonic the Hedgehog, Alex Kidd and Phantasy Star. It was released on 5 August 2021 in Japan, Europe and North America. Also known as Picross S Mega Drive & Mark III Edition in Japan and Picross S Mega Drive & Master System Edition in Europe, in line with the branding of Sega's 8- and 16-bit consoles in those regions.

Picross S Namco Legendary Edition
A Namco-themed entry featuring puzzles based on 30 classic Namco arcade games, including Galaxian, Pac-Man and Dig Dug. It was released on 30 May 2024 in Japan, Europe and North America.

Gameplay
In the same fashion as past entries in the series, the games involve the player completing nonograms.

Aros/Developer/Zune/Beginner

This Document is obsolete, please use Aros/Developer/Zune

Prerequisites
Some knowledge of OO (object-oriented) programming is more than welcome when it comes to dealing with Zune or MUI for that matter. Having said that the principles and techniques used should be easy enough for even the complete beginner to grasp. Google may also help in the search for good introductory papers on this classic subject.

Knowing AROS (or AmigaOS) APIs and concepts, such as the use of taglists - and of course BOOPSI, is essential to developing with Zune. Having a copy of the official "Amiga Reference Manuals" (aka RKM - Rom Kernel Manuals) may be very useful.

Since Zune is a clone of 'MUI', all the documentation pertaining to it is also applicable to Zune. In particular, the latest available 'MUI developer kit' can be found here. In the LHA archive, 2 documents are of most interest:

 * MUIdev.guide, the MUI programmer documentation.

 * PSI.c, the sourcecode of an application demonstrating all the modern MUI practices like object-oriented design and dynamic object creation.

Additionally, this archive contains the MUI autodocs, which can also be used as reference documentations for all Zune classes.

Finally, you will need a good "build" environment to develop under. AROS favours GCC, since the whole of the main system is generated with it.

Concepts
There are four main concepts paramount to BOOPSI. They are CLASS, OBJECT, ATTRIBUTE and METHOD, and are the building blocks on which BOOPSI is implemented.

Class
A class is defined by its name, its parent class and a dispatcher.

 * NAME: either a string for the public classes, so that they may be used by any program in the system, or none if its a private class used only by a single application.
 * PARENT CLASS: all BOOPSI classes form a hierarchy starting from the class aptly named rootclass. BOOPSI allows each subclass to implement its own versions of specific parent operations/functions, or to fall back to ones provided by its "parent". Also known as base class or super class.
 * DISPATCHER: This is the entry point for BOOPSI "Classes". It provides a single point of access to all operations (called methods) that a class can perform, ensuring that each operation is handled by the proper code or passed to its "super class".

The BOOPSI type for a class is ..

Class *

.. also known as IClass.

Object
An object is an instance of class: each object has its specific data, but all objects of the same class share the same behavior. An object has several classes if we count the parents of its true class (the most derived one) up to the rootclass.

BOOPSI type for an object is ..

Object *

It has no field you can directly access.

Attribute
Attributes are related to the instance (private) data of each object.

You can't access an objects internal data directly, so it provides a set of "attrbitues", you can set or get, to modify its internal state. An attribute is implemented as a Tag (ULONG value or'ed with TAG_USER).

GetAttr and SetAttrs are used to modify an object's attributes.

AROS also has macros SET and GET. To modify/read the state the object has its OM_GET or OM_SET "Method" invoked.

Attributes can be one or more of the following:

* Initialization-settable (I) : the attribute can be given as parameter at the object creation. * Settable (S) : You can set this attribute at any time (or at least, not       only creation). * Gettable (G) : You can get the value of this attribute.

Method
A BOOPSI method is a function which receives as parameters an object, a class and a message:

* object: the object you act on     * class: the considered class for this object. * message: contains a method ID which determines the function to call within a dispatcher, and is followed by its parameters.

To send a message to an object, use the DoMethod call. It will try to use the true class of the object to perform the chosen method first. If the class implements the method, it will perform the required operation. If the class DOESNT implement the method it will try the parent class, and so on up the chain until the message is handled or the rootclass is reached (in this case, the unknown message is silently discarded).

The most minimal class could consist of 1 method - OM_NEW, although its use would be extremely limited.

Examples
Let's see basic examples of this OOP framework:

Getting an attribute
We'll query a MUI String object for its content: or a pointer. An IPTR is always written in memory, so using a smaller type would lead to memory corruption! as any other attribute, is a ULONG (it's a Tag)
 * Object * is the type of BOOPSI objects.
 * IPTR must be used for the type of the result, which can be an integer
 * Here we query a MUI String object for its content: MUIA_String_Contents,

Zune applications use more often the get and XGET macros instead:

Setting an attribute
Let's change the content of our string:

SetAttrs(string, MUIA_String_Contents, (IPTR)"hello", TAG_DONE);

* Pointers parameters must be casted to IPTR to avoid warnings. * After the object parameter, a taglist is passed to SetAttrs and thus must end with TAG_DONE.

You'll find the set macro useful:

set(string, MUIA_String_Contents, (IPTR)"hello");

But it's only with SetAttrs that you can set several attributes at once:

SetAttrs(string,           MUIA_Disabled, TRUE,            MUIA_String_Contents, (IPTR)"hmmm...",            TAG_DONE);

Calling a method
Let's see the most called method in a Zune program, the event processing method called in your main loop:

result = DoMethod(obj, MUIM_Application_NewInput, (IPTR)&sigs);

* Parameters are not a taglist, and thus don't end with TAG_DONE. * You have to cast pointers to IPTR to avoid warnings.

Hello world
Screenshot 'Hello World'

First things first! I knew you would be all excited.

General
We don't manually open libraries, it's done automatically for us.

GUI creation
We use a macro-based language to easily build our GUI. A Zune application has always 1 and only 1 Application object:

app = ApplicationObject,

An application can have 0, 1 or more Window objects. Most often a single one:

SubWindow, wnd = WindowObject,

Be nice, give a title to the window:

MUIA_Window_Title, "Hello world!",

A window must have 1 and only 1 child, usually a group. This one is vertical, that means that its children will be arranged vertically:

WindowContents, VGroup,

A group must have at least 1 child, here it's just a text:

Child, TextObject,

Zune accepts various escape codes (here, to center the text) and newlines:

MUIA_Text_Contents, "\33cHello world!\nHow are you? :)",

An End macro must match every xxxObject macro (here, TextObject):

End,

Let's add a second child to our group, a button! With a keyboard shortcut o indicated by an underscore:

Child, but = SimpleButton("_Ok"),

Finish the group:

End,

Finish the window:

End,

Finish the application:

End;

So, who still needs a GUI builder? :-)

Error handling
If any of the object in the application tree can't be created, Zune destroys all the objects already created and application creation fails. If not, you have a fully working application:

if (app != NULL) {           ...

When you're done, just call MUI_DisposeObject on your application object to destroy all the objects currently in the application, and free all the resources:

...           MUI_DisposeObject(app); }

Notifications
Notifications are the simplest way to react on events. The principle? We want to be notified when a certain attribute of a certain object is set to a certain value:

DoMethod(wnd, MUIM_Notify, MUIA_Window_CloseRequest, TRUE,

Here we'll listen to the MUIA_Window_CloseRequest of our Window object and be notified whenever this attribute is set to TRUE. So what happens when a notification is triggered? A message is sent to an object, here we tell our Application to return MUIV_Application_ReturnID_Quit on the next event loop iteration:

(IPTR)app, 2, MUIM_Application_ReturnID, MUIV_Application_ReturnID_Quit);

As we can specify anything we want here, we have to tell the number of extra parameters we are supplying to MUIM_Notify: here, 2 parameters.

For the button, we listen to its MUIA_Pressed attribute: it's set to FALSE whenever the button is being released (reacting when it's pressed is bad practice, you may want to release the mouse outside of the button to cancel your action - plus we want to see how it looks when it's pressed). The action is the same as the previous, send a message to the application:

DoMethod(but, MUIM_Notify, MUIA_Pressed, FALSE,           (IPTR)app, 2,            MUIM_Application_ReturnID, MUIV_Application_ReturnID_Quit);

Opening the window
Windows aren't open until you ask them to:

set(wnd, MUIA_Window_Open, TRUE);

If all goes well, your window should be displayed at this point. But it can fail! So don't forget to check by querying the attribute, which should be TRUE:

if (XGET(wnd, MUIA_Window_Open))

Main loop
Let me introduce you my lil' friend, the ideal Zune event loop:

ULONG sigs = 0;

Don't forget to initialize the signals to 0 ... The test of the loop is the MUIM_Application_NewInput method:

...     while((LONG) DoMethod(app, MUIM_Application_NewInput, (IPTR)&sigs)            != MUIV_Application_ReturnID_Quit)

It takes as input the signals of the events it has to process (result from Wait, or 0), will modify this value to place the signals Zune is waiting for (for the next Wait) and will return a value. This return value mechanism was historically the only way to react on events, but it was ugly and has been deprecated in favor of custom classes and object-oriented design.

The body of the loop is quite empty, we only wait for signals and handle Ctrl-C to break out of the loop:

{           if (sigs) {                 sigs = Wait(sigs | SIGBREAKF_CTRL_C); if (sigs & SIGBREAKF_CTRL_C) break; }     }

Conclusion
This program gets you started with Zune, and allows you to toy with GUI design, but not more.

Notification actions
Notification allows you to respond to events your application/gui or any other object might cause. Due to the attribute and method based nature of Zune, and a few special attributes, Most applications can be almost completely automated through the use of Notification(s).

As seen in hello.c, you use MUIM_Notify to cause an object/class to react if a certain condition happens. If you want your application to react in a specific way to events, you can use one of these schemes:

 * Set An attribute. You can automate the passing of values from gadgets, etc to other gadgets.  Setting values may also trigger other notification events.

 * Invoke a method, for example:

 * MUIM_Application_ReturnID: you can ask your application to return an arbitrary ID on the next loop iteration, and check for the value in the loop. This is the dirty old way of doing things.

 * MUIM_CallHook: to call a standard Amiga callback hook: this is an average choice, not object-oriented but not that ugly either.

 * custom method: the method belongs to one of your custom class. It is the best solution as it supports object-oriented design in applications. It needs you to create custom classes so it may not be the easiest for beginners or people in a hurry.

Lady Verney High School

 Lady Verney High School was a girls' grammar school in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, England that closed in 1993.

History
The origin of the school was in the girls' section of Wycombe Technical School in Easton Street, High Wycombe. It was established in November 1956 and opened in January 1957 with 260 pupils in the former premises of Wycombe High School in Benjamin Road, which dated from 1906. They were too small to cope with the expansion of that school which necessitated a move to new buildings on Marlow Hill to the south of the town centre. The new school was named Lady Verney after the educationalist Margaret Verney, a member of the local Verney family who served on the Education Committee of Buckinghamshire County Council.

In 1988 the school moved to the larger premises of the former Wellesbourne County Secondary School at Kingshill Road on the northern edge of the town. The number of pupils then fell and Buckinghamshire County Council were concerned that the numbers might decline further to 250 by the end of the 1990s, meaning that it would not be able to offer a wide range of subjects. An action group was formed to save the school and it was suggested that the decline in numbers was partly due to the move from the town centre and a boys' school accepting girls into its 6th form. The campaign was not successful and the school closed on 31 August 1993. The 333 pupils, 43 of them taking GCSEs, were transferred to Wycombe High School where there was an investment in new drama, sport and technology blocks and one of the new blocks was named the Verney Building. Whilst building work was completed the enlarged school was run on a split site for a year, with girls attending at both sites until the merger was complete. The Kingshill Road site was later sold for housing development, while a road on the former Benjamin Road site is now named Lady Verney Close.

Academic performance
The year before its closure, Lady Verney High School was among 11 state schools in the country where 100% of pupils gained five or more grades A to C at GCSE. Their A level results however were just surpassed by those at Wycombe High School; in the final year, Wycombe High School pupils averaged 19.4 points on a scale which awards 10 points for each A-grade and two for each E-grade. The average A-level score at Lady Verney was 14.3 points for the same academic year.

Uniform
The school uniform colours were grey and green. The school badge featured an image of a phoenix which was the crest of the Verney family.
