Henry Bayard Rich

Capt. Henry Bayard Rich (14 June 1849 – 17 November 1884) was a British soldier, who played for the Royal Engineers in the 1872 FA Cup Final. As a soldier, he saw active service in three campaigns: the Perak Expedition of 1875–76, the Zulu War of 1879 and the Egyptian Expedition of 1882. He was killed in an accident while playing polo.

Family and early life
Rich was born in Berbice, British Guiana, the first child of Col. Frederick Henry Rich (1824–1904) and his wife Elizabeth née Bayard (1826–1885). His father became a colonel in the Royal Engineers and  was the Chief Inspecting Officer of the Railway Inspectorate between 1885 and 1889. His mother was the daughter of Richard Henry Bayard, US Senator and Chief Justice of Delaware.

Rich was educated at Marlborough College between April 1864 and Christmas 1866. He was then trained at the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich between 1867 and 1870.

Football career
Rich played football for Marlborough College and RMA, Woolwich before joining the Royal Engineers. He generally played as a forward and was "ranked as one of the best football players of his day" who "strove hard to pass the backs".

In November 1871, the Royal Engineers were among fifteen teams who entered the inaugural FA Cup competition; after victories over Hitchin (5–0), Hampstead Heathens (3–0) and Crystal Palace (3–0 after a replay), the Engineers met Wanderers, the top amateur club of the day, in the first FA Cup Final, played at Kennington Oval on 16 March 1872, which the Engineers lost 1–0, to a goal from Morton Betts.

As well as being a footballer, Rich was an athlete who was reputed to be "one of the fastest runners on the athletic track" during his cadetship and later became one of the best horse riders in the Royal Engineers.

Military career
Rich graduated from RMA Woolwich and joined the Royal Engineers as a lieutenant on 8 January 1870. Fellow graduates on the same day were two of his fellow FA Cup finalists, Hugh Mitchell and Edmund Creswell. Rich was promoted to captain twelve years later.

He was based at Chatham until July 1872, before spending eight months at Aldershot. In April 1873, he was posted to Hong Kong until December 1875 when he was sent to Perak as part of a force sent to end local resistance following the murder of the British administrator James W.W. Birch in November 1875. He was mentioned in dispatches by Col. J. Y. Moggridge and awarded the Indian Medal with clasp for the Perak Expedition. Rich returned to Hong Kong in March 1876 and then back to Aldershot in August.

In April 1879, he was posted to South Africa where he served in the Zulu War with the Telegraph Troop in charge of the signallers with the First Division, for which he received the South Africa Medal with 1879 clasp. In January 1880, he returned to England, serving at Chatham, Curragh (Ireland) and at Colchester.

He returned to active service when he was sent to Egypt in September 1882 as part of the Egyptian Expedition to put down a nationalist uprising against the Khedive Tewfik Pasha, where he was employed with the "A" troop under Sir Garnet Wolseley. Rich was awarded the Egypt Medal with a bronze star given by the Khedive. In October 1882, he returned to Aldershot before being posted to India in September 1883.

Marriage
Rich married Ada Melvill Simons (1859–1915) at Sydenham Hill, London on 3 May 1881. The couple had no children.

Following Rich's death, his widow remarried, to Major Francis Slater Picot (1859–1939), of the Wiltshire Regiment. Their son, Capt. Philip Simons Picot served with the Sherwood Foresters (Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire Regiment) and was killed at Gallipoli on 11 July 1915.

Death
Rich was killed at Rawalpindi on 17 November 1884, aged 35, as the result of an accident while playing polo. He and another officer collided violently and Rich was flung to the ground, suffering a fractured skull.

Period-doubling bifurcation

In dynamical systems theory, a period-doubling bifurcation occurs when a slight change in a system's parameters causes a new periodic trajectory to emerge from an existing periodic trajectory—the new one having double the period of the original. With the doubled period, it takes twice as long (or, in a discrete dynamical system, twice as many iterations) for the numerical values visited by the system to repeat themselves.

A period-halving bifurcation occurs when a system switches to a new behavior with half the period of the original system.

A period-doubling cascade is an infinite sequence of period-doubling bifurcations. Such cascades are a common route by which dynamical systems develop chaos. In hydrodynamics, they are one of the possible routes to turbulence.

Logistic map
The logistic map is
 * $$x_{n+1} = r x_n (1 - x_n)$$

where $$x_n$$ is a function of the (discrete) time $$n = 0, 1, 2, \ldots$$. The parameter $$r$$ is assumed to lie in the interval $$[0,4]$$, in which case $$x_n$$ is bounded on $$[0,1]$$.

For $$r$$ between 1 and 3, $$x_n$$ converges to the stable fixed point $$x_* = (r-1)/r$$. Then, for $$r$$ between 3 and 3.44949, $$x_n$$ converges to a permanent oscillation between two values $$x_*$$ and $$x'_*$$ that depend on $$r$$. As $$r$$ grows larger, oscillations between 4 values, then 8, 16, 32, etc. appear. These period doublings culminate at $$r \approx 3.56995$$, beyond which more complex regimes appear. As $$r$$ increases, there are some intervals where most starting values will converge to one or a small number of stable oscillations, such as near $$r=3.83$$.

In the interval where the period is $$2^n$$ for some positive integer $$n$$, not all the points actually have period $$2^n$$. These are single points, rather than intervals. These points are said to be in unstable orbits, since nearby points do not approach the same orbit as them.

Quadratic map
Real version of complex quadratic map is related with real slice of the Mandelbrot set.

Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation
The Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation is an example of a spatiotemporally continuous dynamical system that exhibits period doubling. It is one of the most well-studied nonlinear partial differential equations, originally introduced as a model of flame front propagation.

The one-dimensional Kuramoto–Sivashinsky equation is

u_t + u u_x + u_{xx} + \nu \, u_{xxxx} = 0 $$ A common choice for boundary conditions is spatial periodicity: $$u(x + 2 \pi, t) = u(x,t)$$.

For large values of $$\nu$$, $$u(x,t)$$ evolves toward steady (time-independent) solutions or simple periodic orbits. As $$\nu$$ is decreased, the dynamics eventually develops chaos. The transition from order to chaos occurs via a cascade of period-doubling bifurcations, one of which is illustrated in the figure.

Logistic map for a modified Phillips curve
Consider the following logistical map for a modified Phillips curve:

$$ \pi_{t} = f(u_{t}) + b \pi_{t}^e $$

$$ \pi_{t+1} = \pi_{t}^e + c (\pi_{t} - \pi_{t}^e) $$

$$ f(u) = \beta_{1} + \beta_{2} e^{-u} \,$$

$$ b > 0, 0 \leq c \leq 1, \frac {df} {du} < 0 $$

where :
 * $$\pi$$ is the actual inflation
 * $$ \pi^e $$ is the expected inflation,
 * u is the level of unemployment,
 * $$ m - \pi $$ is the money supply growth rate.

Keeping $$ \beta_{1} = -2.5, \ \beta_{2} = 20, \ c = 0.75 $$ and varying $$b$$, the system undergoes period-doubling bifurcations and ultimately becomes chaotic.

Experimental observation
Period doubling has been observed in a number of experimental systems. There is also experimental evidence of period-doubling cascades. For example, sequences of 4 period doublings have been observed in the dynamics of convection rolls in water and mercury. Similarly, 4-5 doublings have been observed in certain nonlinear electronic circuits. However, the experimental precision required to detect the ith doubling event in a cascade increases exponentially with i, making it difficult to observe more than 5 doubling events in a cascade.

Statistics

Welcome to the Wikibook of Statistics

Statistics - Area of applied mathematics concerned with the data collection, analysis, interpretation and presentation.

Statistics is used in almost every field of research: the discovery of the Higgs particle, social sciences, climate research,... With this, and with its well established foundations, it is very well suited for a wikibook. This book is an ongoing effort to make this basic knowledge available for free.

Since the concepts in probability are essential for statistics, a thorough knowledge of probability is needed before reading this book (especially for the advanced part), and so probability is a prerequisite of this book. Although some concepts in the probability are reviewed, the review is meant to be read by someone who is familiar with those concepts already, and so it is not too detailed. For a more detailed discussion on those concepts, you may refer to the wikibook Probability.

This book is divided into two main parts: Basics and Advanced. The Basics part gives a brief introduction and idea about statistics, while the Advanced part gives a more formal and mathematical treatment on statistics. =Contents= Basics

Talk:Elliptical

Cleanup
User:Uanfala if you consider there's merit in deviating from WP:MOSDAB for basically the whole dab, then here may be a good place to justify that rather than reverting routine cleanup? Until then, anyone like me can come along and eliminate the multiple links per line and other undesirables per consensus of the style guide. E.g. I personally find MOSDAB here does aid navigation, so here goes underlining the consensus:
 * having one link per entry ellipse and oval
 * links at the start of the entry help speed users to their article
 * splitting into "Science and technology" and "Other uses" - less arguably useful with only seven entries, but may help

I now see there's arguably a WP:RECENTISM angle to this Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2020_August_17, but fundamentally per Apple Inc / Apple the shape is both the root and more encyclopaedic and should dominate here for titles. The issue of adjective vs noun throws a spanner in, and it's easy for editors to start defaulting to a dab for an adjective - I see even our guide ADJECTIVE needed an update as one example had turned from an article redir to a dab redir. The hatnotes on Ellipse seem to have the issue covered.

Elliptical trainer could be put in the tech section as a nod to what users want. Widefox ; talk 18:12, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Do you mean that this page should redirect to Ellipse? Even if the trainer entry is disregarded, I don't think I see a primary topic with respect to long-term significance.
 * Now about the layout. As for many other dabs for adjectives, I find it much more helpful if this one enumerates not naked articles, but the meanings of the adjective. Each meaning will have one (or more) relevant articles to link to, but it's still the meaning that's the basic building block, and not the article. That's because the connection between the dab term and each listed article is not that of synonymy (as at most other dabs), it's more indirect. Does something like Elliptical may refer to [..] Concision make sense? Of course, "Elliptical" doesn't refer to concision, what it does is describe a speech style that's characterised by concision. Making clear the relation between the dab term and each linked article is in my opinion more important than having a format that's rigidly consistent with that of every other dab.
 * For me the imperative is for the entries to be worded in a way that fundamentally makes sense and with definitions that help readers, I'm not so much worried about which end of the line the link will happen to be or how many of them there would be in each. The style recommendations of MOS:DAB enable us to be helpful to readers in most cases, but for the occasional case where they do the opposite of that I see no need to adhere to them. The guidelines themselves say as much (MOS:DAB):
 * – Uanfala (talk) 21:31, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Re: "Do you mean that this page should redirect to Ellipse?" - not really, I don't see a change since that 2020 close. I was more thinking aloud - it's a weak dab, with elliptical trainer arguably a WP:PTM. Ghits for a product dominating a shape aren't a surprise, and IMHO is a weak argument (along the lines of Apple vs Apple).
 * Your argument above seems to be of prioritising dictionary help over navigational help. I think MOS:WTLINK covers that wikt links are for that, allowing the dab to focus solely on navigation. The caveat being adjective dabs aren't clearcut.
 * A further point on the weakness of the current dab - this piped entry is also not desirable as it obscures the article name "elliptical planform" -> elliptical wing.
 * This is the sort of dab that has both avoidable and easy fixes and would benefit from routine cleanup, and I don't consider that you can just revert without taking the consensus into account? Widefox ; talk 17:06, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
 * The elliptical trainer isn't a PTM as it's commonly called just an elliptical. Its link is also the one with the most clickthroughs from the dab.
 * As for piping the link to the wing planform: that's necessary to keep the particular wording used and, being within the description, is allowed by MOS:DABPIPING. The piping shouldn't be confusing for readers, as the visible term and the title of the target article are simply two angles on the same topic.
 * I'm not sure what consensus you're referring to? The dab page, in this particular form, is the outcome of an RfD discussion and likely has the implicit support of the participants there.
 * When putting together this dab, I've given some thought into how to organise it best for reader navigation (yes, navigation). Of course, different decisions could have been made, and I'd welcome suggestions for specific changes with explanations about how they will improve the reader experience. I'm much less keen on "routine cleanup" which will bring the dab into a shape I could have gone for myself if I'd given less thought to the process or used the output of an automated tool like Dabfix. – Uanfala (talk) 10:25, 31 May 2022 (UTC)

Electronics/History/Chapter 2

Electricity and Magnetism: 1600-1875

Luigi Galvani
Luigi Galvani (September 9, 1737 - December 4, 1798) was an Italian physician and physicist who lived and died in Bologna.

Dissecting a frog at a table where he had been conducting experiments with static electricity, Galvani touched an exposed sciatic nerve of the frog with his metal scalpel, which had picked up a charge. At that moment, he saw the dead frog's leg kick as if in life. The observation made Galvani the first investigator to appreciate the relationship between electricity and animation--or life. He is typically credited with the discovery of biological electricity.

Galvani coined the term animal electricity to describe whatever it was that activated the muscles of his specimens. Along with contemporaries, he regarded their activation as being generated by an electrical fluid that is carried to the muscles by the nerves. The phenomenon was dubbed "galvanism," after Galvani, on the suggestion of his peer and sometime intellectual adversary Alessandro Volta.

Galvani's investigations led shortly to the invention of an early battery, but not by Galvani, who did not perceive electricity as separable from biology. Galvani saw electricity instead as the essence or the stuff itself of life, which he regarded vitalistically. Thus it was Volta who built the first battery, which became known therefore as a voltaic pile. While, as Galvani believed, all life is indeed electrical--in that all living things are made of cells and every cell has a cell potential--biological electricity has the same chemical underpinnings as the flow of current between electrochemical cells, and thus can be recapitulated in a way outside the body. Volta's intuition was correct as well.

Galvani's name also survives in the Galvanic cell, the galvanometer and "galvanize".

Alessandro Volta
Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta (February 18, 1745 - March 5, 1827) was an Italian physicist known especially for the development of the electric battery. Late in life, he received the title of Count.

De vi attractiva ... Volta was born and educated in Como, Italy, where he became professor of physics at the Royal School in 1774.

His passion had always been the study of electricity, and still a young student he had even written a poem in Latin on this fascinating new discovery.De vi attractiva ignis electrici ac phaenomenis inde pendentibus is his first scientific paper. In 1775 he devised the electrophorus, a device that produced a static electric charge. In 1776-77 he studied the chemistry of gases, discovered methane, and devised experiments such as the ignition of gases by an electric spark in a closed vessel.

In 1779 he became professor of physics at the University of Pavia, a chair he occupied for 25 years. In 1794 Volta married Teresa Peregrini, daughter of Count Ludovico Peregrini; the couple had three sons.

In 1800, as the result of a professional disagreement over the galvanic response advocated by Luigi Galvani, he developed the so-called voltaic pile, a forerunner of the electric battery, which produced a steady electric current. Volta had determined that the most effective pair of dissimilar metals to produce electricity was zinc and silver. Initially he experimented with individual cells in series, each cell being a wine goblet filled with brine into which the two dissimilar electrodes were dipped. The electric pile replaced the goblets with cardboard soaked in brine. (The number of cells, and thus the voltage it could produce, was limited by the pressure, exerted by the upper cells, that would squeeze all of the brine out of the cardboard of the bottom cell.)

Templo Voltiano

In honor of his work in the field of electricity, Napoleon made him a count in 1810; in 1815 the Emperor of Austria named him a professor of philosophy at Padua.

Volta is buried in the city of Como in Italy; the Templo Voltiano near Lake Como is a museum devoted to explaining his work; his original instruments and papers are on display there. The building appeared, along with his portrait, on Italian currency before the introduction of the Euro.

An electrophorus is a simple plate capacitor used to collect static charge produced as a result of friction, devised in 18th century by Johannes Wilcke and Alessandro Volta.

The electrophorus consists of a dielectric plate on a metal surface and a metal plate with an insulating handle. First, the dielectric plate is triboelectrically charged, that is, by friction. Then, the metal plate is placed onto the dielectric plate. The metal plate charges by induction - the side facing the charged dielectric plate charges opposite to the charge of plate, while the side facing away from the dielectric charge attains the same sign of charge as the dielectric plate, thus making the metal plate electrically neutral as a whole. Then, the side facing away from the dielectric plate is momentarily grounded. Finally, the metal plate, now consisting only one sign of charge, is lifted.

The Voltaic Pile was invented by Alessandro Volta in 1800. He demonstrated that when certain metals and chemicals come into contact with each other they can produce an electrical current. He placed together several pairs of copper and zinc discs separated by paper soaked in salt water, and an electrical current was produced. This was the first chemical battery.

For his contributions to the study of electricity, the SI unit called the volt was named after Volta.

In 1881 an important electrical unit was named the volt was named in his honor.

Heinrich Hertz
Heinrich Rudolf Hertz (February 22, 1857 - January 1, 1894), was the German physicist for whom the hertz, the SI unit of frequency, is named. In 1888, he was the first to demonstrate the existence of electromagnetic radiation by building apparatus to produce radio waves.

Hertz was born in Hamburg, Germany, to a Jewish family that had converted to Christianity. His father was an advocate in Hamburg, his mother the daughter of a doctor. While at school, he showed an aptitude for sciences as well as languages, learning Arabic and Sanskrit. He studied sciences and engineering in the German cities of Dresden, Munich and Berlin. He was a student of Gustav R. Kirchhoff and Hermann von Helmholtz. He obtained his PhD in 1880, and remained a pupil of Helmholtz until 1883 when he took a post as a lecturer in theoretical physics at the University of Kiel. In 1885 he became a full professor at the University of Karlsruhe where he discovered electromagnetic waves.

Following Michelson's 1881 experiment (precursor to the 1887 Michelson-Morley experiment) which disproved the existence of Luminiferous aether he reformulated Maxwell's equations, to take the new discovery into account. Through experimentation, he proved that electric signals can travel through open air, as had been predicted by James Clerk Maxwell and Michael Faraday, and which is the basis for the invention of radio. He also discovered the photoelectric effect (which was later explained by Albert Einstein) when he noticed that a charged object loses its charge more readily when illuminated by ultraviolet light.

He died in Bonn, Germany.

His nephew Gustav Ludwig Hertz was a Nobel Prize winner, and Gustav's son Carl Hellmuth Hertz invented medical ultrasonography.

EM waves
The existence of electromagnetic waves, i.e. microwaves, was predicted by James Clerk Maxwell in 1864 from his famous Maxwell's equations. In 1888, Heinrich Hertz was the first to demonstrate the existence of electromagnetic waves by building apparatus to produce radio waves.

spectrum
It was Sir Isaac Newton in 1666 who first used the word spectrum to refer to the celebrated Phenomenon of Colours which can be extracted from sunlight, by a glass prism.

Infared
History In 1800 the English astronomer William Herschel held a mercury thermometer in the spectrum produced by a glass prism to measure the heat content of different coloured lights. He found that the thermometer registered an increase in temperature even when held beyond the red end of the spectrum, where there was no visible light. This was the first experiment to show that heat could be transmitted by an invisible form of light.

Talk:Davy Spillane

2007 posts
I believe Dave Spillane played on Yasunori Mitsuda's CREID album for Xenogears, and was no way involved with XenoSaGa. Celtic Paladin 19:27, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

"Davy Spillane (1959-) is a player of uilleann pipes." He definitely plays low whistle (at least) as well, since that was the instrument on the Titanic soundtrack that he's partially famous for... --MatthewLiberal 18:20, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Lead

 * "is an English professional pool player, from Castleford, West Yorkshire, who now resides in Blackpool, England." delete comma before from; change "who now resides" to "now residing"; add link to Blackpool; delete England and replace with the province Blackpool is in (and link it)

 * There are several events per year (5-10 usually) and the article goes into this. The dates are to give the years that events were won, rather than just say "Peach won four events".

Overall reminders and comments

 * Make sure there aren't any duplicate Wikilinks throughout the body of the article (per MOS)
 * Got them - there was only two Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 07:30, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
 * "English, British, Great Britain, United Kingdom, England" a lot of different terms used throughout the article that seem to mean the same (or almost the same) thing. I suggest being consistent and sticking to one terminology for the ones that mean the same thing. If any are different, say so / explain in the first instance.
 * They are different. Much in the same way as "the Americas", North America and the United States of America are different. It's not up for this article to explain the difference between them. If you fancy being ultra confused, there is also the British Isles. He is English (as in, he is a citizen of England), has represented England, but some sports has represented Great Britain (such as at the World Cup of Pool). This isn't something that is unique to pool. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 08:47, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. What's the difference between England and United Kingdom? Can we replace UK with England? And can all instances of "British" be replaced by "English"? Bobbychan193 (talk) 19:12, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * To make things simple, England is a country. Great Britain (is an few countries as one (including Scotland and Wales.) The United Kingdom also includes Northern Ireland - note, there is more to it than this, there's places like the Isle of Man and Jersey but that just adds to the issue - I can't simply change these, they are different things. Certain sporting competitions feature players representing the different sovereign states. British is fundamentally different from English in a lot of cases. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 20:10, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Alright. I trust your judgement on this. Bobbychan193 (talk) 20:19, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

 * "partnering xyz" I don't know if I like this format. If it's part of cue sports MOS or something, then it's fine. If not, but it's grammatically correct, then that's fine as well. Otherwise, change all instances to "partnering with xyz"
 * Try to add free-use pictures throughout the article (if they are available).
 * I would recommend looking for cue sports in general in wikicommons, it's very empty. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 08:47, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

World nine-ball champion (2007)

 * This section seems a little long. It's only one year (2007), but it spans four paragraphs that take up a lot of the article. This potentially raises concerns about undue weight; even if this section isn't overly detailed, this would suggest that the rest of the article is not detailed enough. I don't want you to have to write a lot of new content for the rest of the article (and it might be really hard to find sources about events that occurred 15 to 30 years ago). As such, even if Peach had some amazing achievements in 2007, try to cut this section down a bit. Delete any content that doesn't really matter in a biographical article about Peach. (I.e. A lot of the details and minutia regarding individual matches can be placed in each tournament's article, but they don't really matter in this article.) I'll review this section last, after you're done trimming it. Bobbychan193 (talk) 04:00, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm not really sure what you want. It was his biggest triumph, he won the world championship. The title win was also marred with controversy, after his win over Van Boening. I could split the section, but I really don't think it needs any splitting upm section headers are used to fund specific information, I feel it's of correct size, and an WP:UNDUE argument could only be established if the event wasn't that important to the subject. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 08:55, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I guess my main issue with it is that it has a lot of specific details. For example, "commented in an interview with the BBC" can be shortened to "commented in a BBC interview", "told BBC", or even just "commented". Also, the entire second and third paragraphs seem to revolve around one event. They're really detailed, and they seem like a play-by-play of individual games. These details would be fine on an article like 2007 WPA Men's World Nine-ball Championship, where the details of individual games would be okay and even welcomed. I just personally think the details are a bit excessive for a biographical article. If you really want to keep everything, that's fine, and I'll review this section as is. Bobbychan193 (talk) 19:26, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * The above remark is right, and I've changed. It's by far the most notable part of his career, and going into depths about how he won his sole world championship is right. I'll see if I can cut stuff. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 07:13, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I'd mention that most of the issues you are having revolve around his match with Bustamante, which certainly isn't worth cutting, and then the bit on the Mosconi Cup, which almost had a fist-fight. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 07:15, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

Game Creation Guidelines

Part of Board Game Design

Introduction
Game design and testing are both iterative processes. Three basic concepts form the fundamental pillars upon which iterative design is founded: Design (or Refining), Testing, and Analysis. The philosophy that underlies iterative design is that the lessons learned from one testing cycle feed directly into improvements in the refining phase of the next development iteration.

A variation on the theme of the run-of-the-mill iterative method is the Spiral Model (Wikipedia link here) of design. The Spiral Model starts from brass tacks, prototyping and evaluating only the essential core of a product. Once a successful prototype is developed, it is thrown away and the scope of the product is expanded, prototyped, and tested again. In the realm of game testing, this might be especially useful with games that are highly abstract and mechanic-driven. Prototyping the central mechanic (especially if it is uncommon or new) allows you to test the fundamentals of the game before adding on additional features. This might also be useful in simulations. Being, by nature, complex, simulations can be made comprehensible (and far more tight) by starting with the essentials and adding on realism in successive design iterations.

This simple iterative design process can be interpreted in many more ways. For example, another style of iterative design is the Design-Prototype-Test model. In game design, you will find that prototyping is an essential component of testing. Playing a game without a good prototype makes it difficult to get the feel for the pieces and flow of play. Prototyping is thus an integral part of testing in the process detailed here.

Some design philosophies encourage the rigorous examination of “usability” throughout the entire design process. This is called Pervasive Usability. While we wish to introduce a rigourous design methodology here for board game design, Pervasive Usability is more suited to things that are made for use, not things that are designed for entertainment. Besides, which game developer has the time or money to assemble a focus group in the early stages of design?

The Process
The process given below is arranged in a novel fashion. Since game design cannot start at the "refinement" stage, the start of the process (design) is marked by an alpha. While a great deal of the design phase is repeated in the refinement phase, there are important things (such as getting the idea in the first place) that are typically not repeated. The omega is production, when the game leaves your hands and is finally produced. The numbered phases of this process are the iterative portion.

Talk:Eucoelophysis

Phylogeny of Eucoelophysis and Silesaurus
Transfer Silesaurus and Eucoelophysis to Ornithischia incertae sedis, because the two genera share a number of ornithischian characters. They are probably close to Pisanosaurus. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Cite? Everything I've read on these animals lately makes their status as dinosaurs seem extremely unlikely.Dinoguy2 02:47, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Although Dzik (2003) described Silesaurus as a dinosauriform possibly related to dinosaurs, two alternate proposals were offered: that either Silesaurus is an early ornithischian or that it is represents a sauropodomorph-ornithischian link. Eucoelophysis may also be a basal plant-eating dinosaur.

Dzik, J. 2003. A beaked herbivorous archosaur with dinosaur affinities from the early Late Triassic of Poland. Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology 23(3):556-574. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Clarification of Eucoelophysis article
The holotype of Eucoelophyis baldwini is NMMNH P-22298, with six more specimens (AMNH 2729, 2736, 2738, 2739, 2749, 2751) definitely referrable. The original types of Coelophysis were thought to be possibly referrable to Eucoelophysis, but the authors who described Eucoelophysis could not assign the original Coelophysis types to the latter genus due to their poor nature (Sullivan and Lucas, 1999). Given the fact that Eucoelophysis is not a theropod, but a relative of Silesaurus, the original remains of Coelophysis are not referrable to Eucoelophysis (Nesbitt et. al., 2005).

List of Discoveries
I've listed this article for peer review because there is a disagreement with the inclusion of a bibliography within the article (the contention is made by Dialectric; → version of the article 1 edit prior to removal of the Bibliography), (firstly) and secondarily, a section of the article, Models (Fashion), as shown @ this version (which is 1 edit prior to the removal, by Onetwothreeip) is thought inadmissable (by also Dialectric, supported by Onetwothreeip, the latter editor hasn't provided an obvious reason for the support).

Distressed Children & Infants International is a non-profit organization based in Cheshire, Connecticut. DCI's flagship program is the "Sun Child Sponsorship" (SCSP) program, which currently supports over 1100 children in Bangladesh. The organization also sponsors other programs through their Blindness Prevention Program, Health for the Underprivileged Program, Orphan Support Program, and Disaster Relief Program.

History
Founded in 2003 by current Executive Director Dr. Ehsan Hoque and President Dr. Brian DeBroff of the Yale School of Medicine. , DCI's mission is to provide children worldwide with an education, basic needs, and health care, while educating young Americans about the challenges of poverty-stricken individuals. .

DCI held their 2nd bi-annual Conference on Child Rights at Yale University on October 17, 2009.

The 3rd bi-annual Conference on Child Rights and Sight was held at Yale University on September 10, 2011

Sun Child Sponsorship Program
In January 2006, DCI started its Sun Child Sponsorship Program, which now supports over 1100 children. The Sun Child Sponsorship Program (SCSP) allows individuals or groups to sponsor a child in Bangladesh. The program is designed to give the poorest and most vulnerable children of Bangladesh the opportunity to become independent and productive citizens by reducing school-dropout rates, fighting preventable diseases (such as early childhood blindness, cleft lip, cleft palate, HIV/AIDS), and actively promoting and protecting child rights.

Blindness Prevention Program
DCI launched its Blindness Prevention Program in 2007, with the objective of preventing and treating vision loss among underprivileged populations in Bangladesh & India. The program also provides eyecare to uninsured children in the United States and their families. The program emphasizes preventative measures and education along with vision screening and eye surgery camps. Donors can sponsor an eye screening camp for underprivileged children and the elderly in Bangladesh. So far, 3200 disadvantaged Children and 3822 adults have received free eye care.

Orphan Support Program
DCI has established the Sun Child Home for orphans located in Mohammapur. At present 15 orphans are residing in the facility with complete support and 330 orphans are receiving healthcare and education support in orphanages all across Bangladesh.

Child Rights Awareness Campaign
DCI holds their bi-annual Conference for Rights and Sight at Yale University to raise awareness on child rights, including child labor and diseases that affect vision. The event gathers world-class speakers and leaders to address these issues and discuss solutions. Past speakers include DCI Goodwill Ambassador and Bangladeshi actress Babita Akhtar

Financial Accountability
According to DCI, 90% of its funds go to program services (childcare, orphan support, blindness prevention, etc), 7% goes to fundraising, and 3% goes to management and administration.

Seafood is derived from aquatic animals, such as fish, mollusks, and crustaceans. These animals provide protein in many diets around the world. The harvesting of seafood is called "fishing. "

The term is not restricted to sea creatures, but may include fresh-water animals as well. This class of foods, perhaps unexpectedly to some, may also include land snails.

The plants of the sea are often also edible, including nori, which is actually a type of algae, and is usually classified as a vegetable, rather than a seafood.

Named after
Sorry, but an unsourced reference from IMDB as to the reason for her name isn;t strong enough of itself. Citation needed. WillE (talk) 14:06, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

Periwinkle?
Where is the evidence that Gilpin's given name at birth was "Periwinkle"? The cited Film Reference bio gives "Peri." The McLennan County, Texas, birth records database gives "Peri." A Chicago Sun-Times article says she was named after Perri the squirrel from a Disney feature. I have seen "Periwinkle" nowhere else. Could someone cite a source for this? Emoll (talk) 15:38, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

 * It may have been added sometime as a joke.  The source cited says "Peri" and that's reason enough to change it, which I have done. Rossrs (talk) 20:24, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

 * I had been a proponent of Gilpin's having been born as Periwinkle O'Brien, however I admit that evidently I was incorrect in this assumption. According to this minibio "[Peri's] parents thought she would be a boy and hadn't thought of any girl's names - only 'Peter' ... [s]o they adapted that into Peri". Also, according to Wikipedia's article on her father, Jim O'Brien was the stage name of James Oldham''.
 * Thus Peri Kay Oldham was apparently her name at birth. Updated accordingly. Mea culpa. Also see (cache of http://homepage.ntlworld.com/wardale/perigilpin/interview_instyle.htm<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(talk) 10:12, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

OLPT
The paper currently contains roughly 85% content from me (Ian), 10% from Delia, 4% pulled out of Roxan's Masters thesis, 1% questions from Gavin. Co-authors who persist in a state of breathless silence will be excluded from the author line next week. The author line is still open for anybody wishing to contribute. It is not a closed user group. Since it is going to reside at Wikiversity, any nitpicking, discussing and editing would be welcome and will be acknowledged. The deadline for submission to SITE2007 is 15 December 2006! Wikiversity has enabled co-authors around the world to work around the clock on assembling and writing it. --Ian Kennedy 19:02, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

It is also a call for participation in populating the framework we are proposing, which can link off our paper. --Ian Kennedy 17:06, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

How to get your head around what we are doing
Material towards our real abstract follows. --Ian Kennedy 09:09, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

We identify a problem
OLPC training and training of in-service teachers

We offer a generic solution
In-service training will be hosted provided at Wikiversity as a learning project. This is to be downloaded or supplied to the teacher on a SD card, to be inserted into the teacher's OLPT. It is envisaged that the teacher will study the material it slowly over 6 months, working cooperatively with the teacher's cohorts. The study will in all probability best be done simultaneous with the teacher teaching the children ways in which they can use the OLPCs.

This requires encouraging creativity, and curiosity, rewarding discoveries by letting the whole class (and the wider community) know about the discovery. For example, the first task could be to see which child can be the first to discover how to open the laptop. (The child has to unlatch both antennas, which double as case clips.)

This society represents individual teacher educators and affiliated organizations of teacher educators in all disciplines, who are interested in the creation and dissemination of knowledge about the use of information technology in teacher education and faculty / staff development. SITE is a society of the Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE).

Editing protocol
Initially, please leave all references in situ (with their calling text). This way if we change our minds and delete text, we will delete the reference also. I am now moving the references of printed material to the reference section, where they really belong. Our standard is twofold:
 * Cite paper references traditionally (Harvard style) so that the paper can be refereed and offered to printed journals or conference proceedings.
 * Link Web pages from the references section: Link so that the reader can quickly visit as many on-line references as the reader wishes. --Ian Kennedy 16:17, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Dual Publication
We are preparing this paper for 2 audiences: As far as copyright goes, the conference gets copyright for the print version, and anybody can use the hypertext version under GFDL. As far as I know it is OK for material to have two copyright (different) holders if the media are different (e.g. video and print).
 * The traditional conference paper. This audience cannot click on links, so they get the inferior experience. (This will help to convert the unconverted!)
 * The on-line community who believe that even quality on-line research should get financial recognition.

The conference also will get the copyright for the powerpoint.

Feedback
Greetings, and thanks for adding this paper to Wikiversity - particularly in order to invite co-authors and comments. I'm afraid I haven't yet had a chance to fully read the paper, so I can't comment myself - and it looks like I won't be able to before the deadline for submission. It might be an idea for the future to add a paper slightly longer in advance, and to publicise it wider, in order to ensure timely feedback. It's already difficult to track every movement on this young wiki! Anyhow, all the best with the submission, and hopefully we can work on common issues together - possibly centralised on School:Education or even Portal:Education...

 * Also, just to say that a page named "Test" has been moved to One Laptop Per Teacher/Test - just in case you were looking for it. If this page is no longer necessary, you can let me know on my talk page, and I can delete it. Cheers. Cormaggio talk 22:36, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the note on my talk page, Ian. I've only been able to scan the paper - this week is a very busy one for me. The paper looks good - I might tighten up the sequence from the introduction to the paragraph about Wikiversity, which doesn't seem to flow, but that's just me. Overall, if, as it seems, you're going to use Wikiversity further to act as a space for teachers to collaborate and learn from eachother, and possibly even set up activities for their students - this would be very exciting. I'd love to help out in this regard, and would be fascinated to find out more. So, let's keep in touch - cheers! Cormaggio talk 10:26, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Hope you do not mind.
I quoted your abstract at Google Scholar in Wikipedia article wikiversity preparing to meet notability requirements of pedantic Wikipediasts attempting to delete article on Wikiversity as non notable or some such nonsense. I think they may accept that the steam engine is a good idea and here to stay but I have not checked on the Fulton or steam related articles or stubs. If you dislike how the quote or link have been used there feel free to modify or delete. I am "Lazyquasar" there so you will not hurt my feelings. By the way I am excited your team has chosen to publish your material and collaborate here at Wikiversity. I just bought an OLPC under the get one give one program for me, my nephew and some African child to play with. Hopefully future generations will get down to the $100/laptop goal or better. Thanks for your efforts in helping launch this critical initiative. Mirwin 07:34, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

We will be learning how to edit Wikipedia so that we can work to improve existing Psychology articles and create new Psychology articles. We will be working with the Psychology WikiProject Initiative and our IS goals are similar to some of the project's goals: To remove vandalism, original research and spam. To ensure that articles are based on independent reliable secondary sources. To represent scientific controversies and scientific consensus fairly, writing articles in a neutral style. To improve and review articles to Good Article and Featured Article quality. Remember, this is an independent study. You need to work independently and complete the work regularly. In fact, you don't need me. Wikipedia is set up to allow you to learn it yourself. So you could just do it. However, I've planned an introduction to Wikipedia that we will work through. After that, I'd like you to edit 10 existing articles and create one new article and submit it for review for Wikipedia's Wikipedia:Good articles status. Actually, here's the real independent assignment. As soon as you have an article you created awarded good article status -- 1. you are done with the independent study and 2. your grade is an A+!

 * A few questions to consider (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?

 * Handout: Moving out of your sandbox
 * A general reminder: Don't panic if your contribution disappears, and don't try to force it back in.
 * Check to see if there is an explanation of the edit on the article's talk page. If not, (politely) ask why it was removed.
 * Contact your instructor or Wikipedia Content Expert and let them know.

 * Move your sandbox articles into main space.
 * If you are expanding an existing article, copy your edit into the article. If you are making many small edits, save after each edit before you make the next one. Do NOT paste over the entire existing article, or large sections of the existing article.
 * If you are creating a new article, do NOT copy and paste your text, or there will be no record of your work history. Follow these instructions on how to move your work.

 * Optional: For new articles or qualifying expansions of stubs, compose a one-sentence “hook,” nominate it for “Did you know,” (see detailed instructions) and monitor the nomination for any issues identified by other editors. Wiki Education Foundation staff can provide support for this process.
