Radio Margaritaville

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about a satellite radio station, with no properly sourced indication of passing WP:NMEDIA. SiriusXM channels are not automatically presumed notable just because they exist, but must show enough reliable source coverage about them in media to clear WP:GNG -- but the only references shown here at all are SiriusXM's own primary source press releases and channel lineup brochures. Both NMEDIA and WP:OUTCOMES specify that satellite radio stations only get their own articles if they can be properly sourced as notable, and are not automatically entitled to have standalone articles if they're referenced exclusively to primary sources. Redirect to a related topic would also be acceptable, but I can see several different possible redirect targets -- the SiriusXM channel list, Jimmy Buffett, the "merchandising" section of Margaritaville -- and don't know which one to propose.

 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Radio-related deletion discussions. CAPTAIN RAJU (T) 13:55, 20 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep. I have expanded the article with the help of several references. Some coverage - especially pertaining to its history before Sirius - exists behind paywalls, but with the additions there should now be enough properly sourced material to support a standalone article.  gongshow  talk  07:08, 21 September 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Cecil Murphey

Should this even be an article?
This question arises out of a complaint by CatM58 at my talk page about this deletion I made, which is very similar to the deletion made by Drmies here, and then reinserted by CatM58 here.

Leaving aside the matter of the style of the list of books and use of boldface, neither of which meet WP's general standard, but are eminently fixable, many of the titles are described as "ghostwritten". The only place I can find Cecil Murphy acknowledged as the author is on his website. As far as I can tell, his name is not on the books, nor has anything been written about his authorship of them by substantive sources, or, indeed, any source at all. (Many others on the list I deleted are also marked "with Cec -or Cecil- Murphey-", but they are verifiable by looking at the books' covers.) While ghostwriting is a common practice for celebrities in many fields, the whole point is that a true ghost does not get acknowledgement. I have no idea how we could verify these titles and feel that they, at least, have to be deleted.

There is the claim that the title 90 Minutes in Heaven "has sold more than 5 million copies, been printed in 26 languages, and was listed on the New York Times bestseller list continuously for five years." I have checked | every NYT Best Sellers' List for the years 2004 to 2011, and I can't find one mention of the title. If anyone else can find it, or can find someone other than Murphey or a source likely informed by Murphey, please help us out here. The same goes for the 5M copies and the 26 languages claims. Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story has similar problems. The link in the article is to the WP page about a movie made with this title, but it contains no reference to the book or to Murphey. I can't find a review or an article about the book or about the book's association with the original 1992 video-documentary of the same name.

All the personal, biographical information in the article appears to come from Murphey's website or other sources informed by it or by him. I am having no success in coming up with a justification for this article. I am seriously considering suggesting it go to WP:AFD on the basis of a lack of notability. I am hoping that by bringing this discussion here, I can drum up interest and sources. So far, the only real contributors adding content (that seldom stays for long) are Ltum2, who started the article and has done almost nothing else on WP and CatM58 who arrived in early September of this year and, aside from one comment each on my talk page and that of  Drmies, has edited nothing but this article. Bielle (talk) 04:24, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I found a ROCK-SOLID source: . Justin Bieber must be like Christ! Just to make matters clear--that is not a reliable source for these huge claims. Anyway, I have little to add. We're dealing with vanispam here; I just removed the same unverified claims from 90 Minutes in Heaven, and found no more references to add to the article. PS: If nothing comes up, AfD is the answer. Drmies (talk) 15:49, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
 * The irony here is that if CatM58 -- who clearly is in some way connected to the subject of the article -- had simply left it as it was, there was every possibility that no one would have bothered much about it. Instead, he or she tried to increase the "vanispam" content and drew attention to the article once again.  A good first step here ould be to tell CatM58 that they should edit only on the basis of the restrictions spelled out in WP:COI (i.e. make suggestions on this talk page and allow other editors to decide whether they have value or not, etc).

 * Thanks for finding that paperback list for the NYT best sellers. I didn't know there was a difference between hard cover and PB. That makes the book notable, but the "with" author, I am not convinced. Bielle (talk) 04:31, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I've just added the NY Bestseller list source for the book that apparently no one believes exists. I hope now that you all realize it was indeed accurate information, you will stop with the accusations. I don't appreciate these negative comments that have been made on these Talk Pages. Just because you're not familiar with any of his books doesn't mean they don't exist. Not only do they exist, but Cecil Murphey's name IS INDEED ON EVERY BOOK COVER, He is the author of the book about Ben Carson and the movie had his name in the opening credits. + :::Thanks for finding that paperback list for the NYT best sellers. I didn't know there was a difference between hard cover and PB. That makes the book notable, but the "with" author, I am not convinced. Bielle (talk) 04:31, 14 October 2012 (UTC) − Not sure where you get your information, or lack thereof. You're threatening to remove this page, but what you don't realize is that's been happening for awhile now; one section at a time.CatM58 (talk) 05:31, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

 * There was no question but that the book existed. I was looking in the wrong set of NYT Best Sellers, not knowing it had only been issued in paperback -or, indeed, that there was a separate paperback list. It isn't a matter of not believing; it is a matter of being able to verify information, especially claims of notability, awards, numbers of copies, languages. I am sure you have been directed to the policies on WP for reliable sources before. I suggest you read it carefully so that you aren't in the awkward position of taking personally what is a standard requirement for articles. Every  is a request for a reliable source for the information.  If the note stays up for a long time, the text to which it is appended is likely to be deleted.

 * There is no "threat" to delete this article. It is, instead, a question as to whether or not Cecil Murphey meets the requirements of notability for a writer. The criteria follow, with my comments in respect of Murphey:

 * 1.The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors.
 * I can find no evidence which discusses Murphey or cites him.
 * 2. The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory or technique.
 * No evidence
 * 3. The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.
 * The movie created from Ben Carson's story was a TV release and not a feature-length film as far as I can discover.
 * 4. The person's work either (a) has become a significant monument, (b) has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) has won significant critical attention, or (d) is represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.
 * A book on the NYT Best Sellers' List might be sufficient if we could find any substantive reviews of it in reliable sources.

 * This is not a negative process -quite the contrary. We are trying to find evidence that Cecil Murphey meets the WP standard of inclusion. The NYT Best Seller link is a start, even though it doesn't support the whole of the original claim. Bielle (talk) 06:09, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Attribution
I am looking for cites Murphey's nme for the Velma Barfield book Woman on Death Row and for a Bishop Eddy Long book around 1995; it's not the one with Jenkins, obviously. Is there anyone with better Google skills than mine? Bielle (talk) 18:37, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

In their second season under head coach James J. Yeager, the Cyclones compiled a 7–1–1 record (3–1–1 against conference opponents), finished in second place in the conference, and outscored their opponents by a combined total of 125 to 64. They played their home games at Clyde Williams Field in Ames, Iowa.

Guard Ed Bock and back Everett Kischer were the team captains. Four Iowa State players were selected as first-team all-conference players: Bock, Kischer, end Charles Heileman, and tackle Clyde Shugart.

Proto-Trans–New Guinea language

Proto-Trans–New Guinea is the reconstructed proto-language ancestral to the Trans–New Guinea languages. Reconstructions have been proposed by Malcolm Ross and Andrew Pawley.

Phonology
Proto-Trans–New Guinea is reconstructed with a typical simple Papuan inventory: five vowels,, three phonations of stops at three places, (Andrew Pawley reconstructs the voiced series as prenasalized ), plus a palatal affricate , the fricative , and the approximants. Syllables are typically (C)V, with CVC possible at the ends of words. Many of the languages have restricted tone systems.

 * {| class="wikitable" style="text-align: center"

! !!Bilabial!!Apical!!Palatal!!Velar !style="text-align: left"|Plosive !style="text-align: left"| Prenasalised plosives !style="text-align: left"|Nasals !style="text-align: left"|Fricatives !style="text-align: left"|Laterals !style="text-align: left"|Semivowels
 * +Consonants

 * ᵐb || ⁿd
 * ᶮʤ|| ᵑg
 * m || n|| ɲ || ŋ
 * s
 * s
 * || l|| ||
 * w || || j ||
 * }

The Proto-Trans–New Guinea vowels are reconstructed as having a cross-linguistically frequent five-vowel system:

 * {| class="wikitable" style="text-align: center"

! ! Front !Central ! Back ! Close ! Mid ! Open
 * +Vowels
 * +Vowels
 * a
 * }
 * }
 * }

Pronouns
Ross reconstructs the following pronominal paradigm for Trans–New Guinea, with *a~*i ablaut for singular~non-singular:

 * {| class=wikitable

 * I || *na || we || *ni
 * thou || *ga || you || *gi
 * s/he || *(y)a, *ua || they || *i
 * }
 * s/he || *(y)a, *ua || they || *i
 * }
 * }

There is a related but less commonly attested form for 'we', *nu, as well as a *ja for 'you', which Ross speculates may have been a polite form. In addition, there were dual suffixes *-li and *-t, and a plural suffix *-nV, (i.e. n plus a vowel) as well as collective number suffixes *-pi- (dual) and *-m- (plural) that functioned as inclusive we when used in the first person. (Reflexes of the collective suffixes, however, are limited geographically to the central and eastern highlands, and so might not be as old as proto-Trans–New Guinea.)

Morphology
Studies group Madang, Finisterre-Huon, and Kainantu-Goroka together as part of a larger Northeast New Guinea (NENG) group on the basis of morphological evidence, such as mutually reconstructable verbal suffixes that mark subject:

 * Proto-Northeast New Guinea subject-marking verbal suffixes

 * {| class="wikitable"

! !! singular !! dual !! plural ! 1st person ! 2nd person ! 3rd person
 * *-Vn || *-u(l,t) || *-un, *-i

 * *-ai, *-i, *-a
 * *-a, *-i || *-ai
 * }

 * *-un,*-i || *-un || *-un || *-un ||
 * *-ai,*-i,*-a || *-ai,*-i || *-e,*-i || *-a ||
 * }

Lexicon
Lexical words, such as *niman 'louse', may also be reconstructed:

 * Reflexes of *niman 'louse', which attest to an intermediate *iman in the east:
 * Chimbu–Wahgi: Mid/Nuclear Wahgi numan
 * Engan: Enga & Kewa lema
 * Finisterre–Huon: Kâte imeŋ, Selepet imen
 * Gogodala mi
 * Kainantu–Goroka: Awa nu, Tairora nume, Fore numaa, Gende (tu)nima
 * Southern Kiwai nimo
 * Koiarian: Managalasi uma
 * Kolopom: Kimaghama nome, Riantana nome
 * Kwale nomone
 * Madang: Kalam yman, Watiwa (Rai Coast) im, Sirva (Adelbert) iima
 * Mek: Kosarek ami
 * Marori nemeŋk
 * Paniai Lakes: Ekari yame (metathesis?)
 * Timor–Alor–Pantar: Western Pantar (h)amiŋ, Oirata amin (metathesis?)
 * Wiru nomo
 * Questionable branches:
 * Pauwasi: Yafi yemar
 * Central Sentani mi

The Proto-Trans–New Guinea negative is reconstructed as *ma-. Negatives in Trans–New Guinea languages usually have either an mV- or nV- form.
 * *mV (often *ma): Angaatɨha (Angan); Apalɨ, Waskia, Kalam (Madang); Kâte, Kombe (Finisterre-Huon)
 * *na ~ *naa: Awara (Finisterre-Huon); Enga, Ku Waru, Middle Wahgi (Chimbu-Wahgi); Oksapmin

Vegaphobia

Vegaphobia, vegephobia, veganphobia, or veganophobia is an aversion to, or dislike of, vegetarians and vegans. The term first appeared in the 2010s, coinciding with the rise in veganism in the late 2010s. Several studies have found an incidence of vegaphobic sentiments in the general population. Positive feelings regarding vegetarians and vegans also exist. Because of their diet, others may perceive them as more virtuous or principled.

Terminology
Three French Veggie Pride activists used the term végéphobie meaning discrimination against vegetarians, in a 2011 document.

British sociologists Matthew Cole and Karen Morgan used the term vegaphobia and the derived adjective vegaphobic in a 2011 study, meaning prejudice against vegans specifically. Later authors used the term veganphobia (vegan-) in this sense.

Subsequent studies defined vegaphobia as the dual aversion to vegans and vegetarians together. A 2019 study of vegaphobia in this sense added the term vegaphobe for a person with vegaphobia. Previously, the Swiss-Polish actor and producer Jola Cora had also used the dual aversion concept but called it vegephobia (with an 'e'), in a 2013 conference talk titled "Vegephobia, what is it?"

Attitudes in the general population
"In the media, in pop culture and even in progressive, enlightened polite society it is still widely acceptable to make fun of vegans", writes Farhad Manjoo in a 2019 New York Times opinion piece against mocking vegans. Manjoo cites findings from a 2015 study by Canadian psychologists, that the general population rates vegans more negatively than atheists and immigrants, and tolerates vegans only slightly better than drug addicts. Vegans get more negative ratings than vegetarians, and vegan men receive more negative ratings than women. Vegans are rated better if they are motivated by health reasons than if their veganism is driven by ethical or animal rights concerns.

Among around a thousand Belgian Flemish meat eaters surveyed in 2016, vegaphobia against vegetarians was more common among men than among women, among older more than younger people, among people with a firmer intention to keep consuming meat, and among less educated people.

These findings are consistent with vegans who feel discriminated against by people that eat meat. In 2018, a survey of over 1,000 British and American vegans from the weight-loss application Lifesum found 80% of respondents to have experienced some form of anti-vegan prejudice. The fear of being stigmatized when becoming a vegan also keeps some meat-eaters from transitioning to a vegan diet.

Vegan chocolate has been criticised with thousands of "mean tweets", a fact the British chocolate company Cadbury drew attention to in a 2022 campaign.

Meat eaters rate vegans less negatively when they have been reminded that meat comes from animals, a survey of 300 US residents found. The reminder also increased their discomfort while eating meat.

A study published in the Sex Roles journal in 2023 found that men on vegan diets are commonly perceived as less masculine, a stereotype shared across genders and surprisingly even among some female vegans. This reflects a deeply ingrained association between meat-eating and masculinity, highlighting widespread and unexpected biases even within the vegan community.

A 2024 column lamented anti-vegan jokes made by progressives and moderates in the Belgian media.

Attitudes of the media
Academic Laura Wright stated in 2015 that media organizations and wider discourse routinely mischaracterize vegan diets, highlighting situations where media outlets reported the death of children as being from a "vegan diet" rather than the parental neglect that was the actual cause.

A 2011 study found that British media discredit vegans through ridicule, and portray veganism as difficult or impossible to maintain. The six most common vegaphobic statements found in these media were, in order of frequency: ridiculing veganism, erroneously equating veganism with asceticism, perpetuating the myth that veganism is difficult or impossible to sustain, describing veganism as a fashion trend, portraying vegans as sentimentalists, and defining vegans as hostile. The study found that of 397 articles, 20% were neutral, approximately 5% were positive and 75% were negative. In 2018, it was revealed that a British food editor had sent a vegan an email that mentioned "killing vegans one by one".

On social media, some vegans have also been attacked for their choice to have sexual relations only with other vegans.

Causes of vegaphobia
There are many theories to explain negative attitudes towards vegans. Negative attitudes against vegans and vegetarians are most commonly found in people with conservative and/or right-wing beliefs, especially the ones associated with Abrahamic religions, being often most pronounced in far-right individuals and groups. For some right-wing adherents, eating meat is not only a delight, but also a part of their attitudes towards life. Thus, they can perceive those who advocate against meat consumption as a threat to their way of life. A survey of about 1,000 participants showed that vegans are perceived as a threat mainly by older and less educated people, and by meat eaters who are particularly convinced of their habit. A 2019 study found a positive correlation between world-views rooted in social dominance ("social dominance orientation") and a negative perception of vegans.

One explanation for vegaphobia is founded on what is sometimes called the meat paradox: many people who eat meat do not like harming animals. Vegans can remind meat eaters of this cognitive dissonance, and one way to resolve this inner conflict and reduce dissonance is to maintain prejudice against vegans.

Another proposed reason for vegaphobia is that meat eaters may feel judged by vegans and vegetarians for eating meat. Discrediting ethical vegans as do-gooders is then a way to invalidate the judgement of oneself. These negative attitudes against vegans are stronger when vegans are thought to think of themselves as morally superior.

While meat eaters may have an inner conflict about the killing of animals for their food, this explanation of vegaphobia may not hold up to environmental reasons for avoiding meat. Environmentalist meat eaters may not see a conflict in eating meat because they see their individual environmental impact of meat consumption as low.

Vegans may not always be discredited for ideological reasons. Sometimes the reason may be that the vegaphobe cannot share food with them.

Vegaphobia has been framed as an intersectional problem connected to masculinity, race and gender identity issues.

Against vegetarians
In the early 1990s, McDonald's started describing its French fries as vegetarian when they, in fact, contained beef-derived flavouring, leading to a ten million US dollar settlement in 2002 for misleading Hindus and other vegetarians into eating food against their conscience.

In 2020, a parliamentary employee of the nationalist Alternative for Germany called someone who ordered vegetarian food in the canteen of the German parliament a pejorative term, saying "we are going to get you".

Against vegans
Philosopher Oscar Horta links vegaphobia to discrimination against vegans, which he observes, among other instances, at the workplace.

Vegans have in individual instances been terminated from jobs or excluded from the applicant pool for their veganism. A survey by the law firm Crossland Employment Solicitors found that among "over 1,000" UK-based vegan employees, nearly a third felt discriminated against at their workplace. A London NHS trust (a unit of the UK's National Health Service) in 2017 put up a discriminatory job advert for an occupational therapist (OT) saying, "Unfortunately, OTs with vegan diets cannot be considered", and that "Veganism or other highly restrictive eating practices cannot be accommodated." When challenged by The Vegan Society, the trust changed the advert and apologized.

A vegan was denied a Swiss passport by local voters, and people have thrown KFC chicken at vegans in England, in both cases as a reaction to their lawful animal rights protest. In 2018, William Sitwell, then editor of the Waitrose Food magazine, responded to a request for a vegan column by proposing "a series on killing vegans, one by one".

A vegan college student from Bristol was told to watch bull castration and visit an abattoir or fail her course in animal management. The university reconsidered after support from The Vegan Society.

A primary school in Solihull forbade a five-year-old from bringing soya milk to school. It took three months and the help of The Vegan Society for the father of the child to change the school's mind.

When learning about a vegan person's diet, many nonvegans list all the animal-based foods that they like, without consideration for how this can make vegans feel uncomfortable ("I just love bacon"). :363

Some vegans use the term veganphobia (with an 'n') when discussing prejudice and discrimination against vegans specifically.

Tracking
The Unión Vegana Argentina in 2019 petitioned the Argentine government agency National Institute Against Discrimination, Xenophobia and Racism to include vegaphobia in its discrimination mappings.

Criticism
The application of the term "vegaphobia"—and the extent to which it can be compared to other forms of discrimination—is a somewhat divisive issue. Sophie Wilkinson of Grazia opined in 2018 that discrimination against vegans (unlike sexism, racism, and homophobia) does not go beyond the level of microaggressions. She also wrote that "discrimination is about being treated differently for who you are, not for what you choose to do", implying that being a vegan is not who you are, but rather what you choose to do. Others have distinguished between two kinds of veganism, lifestyle and ethical. Veganism motivated by ethical beliefs about animals was ruled to be a protected belief in the United Kingdom under the Equality Act in an unfair dismissal lawsuit in 2020.

Good Bio
http://www.nscahh.org/conference/conf.asp?id2=23755

Dolores Huerta
Dolores was born Dolores Clara Fernandez on April 10, 1930 in the mining town of Dawson, in northern New Mexico. Her father, Juan Fernandez, was a seasonal farm worker, miner, union activist and later a State Assemblyman. Her parents divorced when she was three years old and her mother, Alicia Chavez, relocated Dolores and her two brothers to Stockton, California in the predominantly agricultural San Joaquin Valley. Alicia raised Dolores, along with her two brothers, and later two sisters. Her mother worked as a cook in two restaurants to support her family during the Great Depression. Through prudence she became a businesswoman when she purchased two hotel businesses and a restaurant. While her mother worked feverishly to support the family, Dolores and her siblings were cared for by her grandfather, Herculano Chavez. He was a miner who became disabled in a mining accident in New Mexico in which he lost one of his sons, Marcial Chavez at age seventeen. In helping to raise Dolores, Herculano would often say that Dolores had seven tongues because she spoke so fast.

Dolores and her siblings were raised in one of the two hotels, the 60-room Richard’s Hotel, that her mother purchased from a Japanese family that was being relocated to a concentration camp. Her mother often put up farm workers and their families for free in the hotels. Dolores and her siblings worked in the daily cleaning and renting of the rooms at the Richard’s Hotel. Her mother taught Dolores the importance of community activism and supported Dolores, and her Girl Scout troop. Dolores remained a girl scout until age 18 when she graduated from Stockton High School in 1947. As a girl scout, Dolores’ troop took on many community endeavors including fundraising activities to support the USO during World War II. Dolores’ troop was quite unique for its time in that it was truly representative of the international community of Stockton. It was made up of girls from diverse ethnical backgrounds including African-American, Chinese, Filipino, Latino and Anglo at a time when racism was prevalent. In fact it was as a teen-ager in high school when Dolores first experienced racism. An annual national Girl Scout essay contest was held and Dolores was one of two girls who won, she placed second throughout the nation. The second place prize was a trip to the Hopi Indian Reservation in Gallup, New Mexico. When Dolores sought to seek the time off from school to go on this trip she was granted permission from all of her teachers but denied the time off from school by the Dean of Girls. Dolores felt that this was because she was the first Latina to win this annual contest and many Anglo girls had previously been given the time off from school for winning the very same award. Dolores also experienced more institutional racism when, in that same senior year of high school she was given a final grade of a “C” in English after receiving numerous “A’s on term papers, reports and essays. When she approached the teacher in regard to her final grade, the teacher told her she gave her the “C” because she “knew” that the essays and reports were written by someone else because Dolores could not have written them herself.

The day World War II ended, festivities were held throughout the town celebrating “VJ” (Victory over the Japanese). Her brother Marshall dressed up in a Zoot-suit to go out and celebrate. Dolores was going to meet up with him at a dance later in the evening. As Dolores and her friend were walking to the dance they came upon a person huddled on the ground of a door stoop. He was badly beaten with his clothes ripped to shreds. The beating and ripped clothing was a result of racism against young Latinos, and their way of dress in the 40’s. When Dolores stopped to help the young man up, it turned out to be her brother Marshall, who for the first time had dressed in a Zoot-suit.

Alicia Chavez also instilled the love of the arts in her children. She purchased season tickets for her children to the symphony and theatre to see live music performances of renowned artists, although she herself could not attend because she had to work. Alicia enrolled Dolores in piano, violin, and dance lessons. Dolores wanted to become a flamenco dancer when she grew up. As a teenager, Dolores was a majorette and participated in many parades throughout the region along with her future sister-in-law, Rae Atilano.

Alicia Chavez taught Dolores how to be generous and caring for others. Because of her mother’s community activism, Dolores learned to be outspoken. After high school, Dolores attended college and received a teaching certificate. She was the first of her family to receive a higher education. She taught grammar school but decided to resign from teaching because, in her words, “I couldn’t stand seeing farm worker children come to class hungry and in need of shoes. I thought I could do more by organizing their parents than by trying to teach their hungry children.”

In 1955, she became founding members of the Stockton Chapter of the Community Service Organization (“CSO”), a grass roots organization started by Fred Ross. Her mother later joined the organization as well and received an award for her community activism.

In recognizing the needs of farm workers while working for the CSO, Dolores organized and founded the Agricultural Workers Association (“AWA”) in 1960. She became a fearless lobbyist in Sacramento, at the age of twenty-five (25), a time where few women, not to mention women of color, dared to enter the State Capital and National Capital to lobby legislators. Her efforts paid off in 1961 when she succeeded in obtaining the removal of citizenship requirements from pension and public assistance programs for legal residents of the United States and California State disability insurance for farm workers.

She was also instrumental in passage of legislation allowing the right to vote in Spanish, and the right of individuals to take the drivers license examination in their native language. In 1962 she lobbied in Washington D.C. for an end to the “captive labor” Bracero Program. In 1963 she was instrumental in securing Aid for Dependent Families (“AFDC”), for the unemployed and underemployed,

It was through her work with Fred Ross and the CSO that Dolores met Cesar Chavez. It was Fred who recruited and organized both Dolores and Cesar and trained them in community organizing. The CSO battled segregation, police brutality, led voter registration drives, pushed for improved public services in Latino communities throughout the State of California and fought to enact new legislation. The CSO played a leading role in electing the first Latino in over one hundred years, Ed Roybal, to the Los Angeles City Council.

While working with the CSO, both Cesar and Dolores realized the immediate need to organize farm workers because of their dire conditions. In 1962 after the CSO turned down Cesar’s request, as their nation director, to organize farm workers, Cesar and Dolores resigned from their jobs with CSO in order to do so. At that time she was a divorced mother with seven children. She later joined Cesar and his family in Delano, California where they began the National Farm Workers Association (“NFWA”), the predecessor to the United Farm Workers Union (“UFW”).

By 1965 Dolores and Cesar organized farm workers and their families throughout the San Joaquin Valley utilizing the organizing techniques taught them by Fred Ross. On September 8th of that year, Filipino members of the Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee (the successor of the “AWA” the same organization founded by Dolores) demanded higher wages and struck Delano area grape growers. Although Dolores and Cesar had planned to organize farm workers for several more years before confronting the large corporate grape industry, they could not ignore their Filipino brothers’ request. On September 16, 1965 the NFWA voted to join in the strike. Over 5,000 grape workers walked off their jobs. The strike would last five years.

In 1966, Dolores negotiated the first NFWA contract with the Schenley Wine Company. This was the first time in the history of the United States that a negotiating committee comprised of farm workers and a young Latina single mother of seven, negotiated a collective bargaining agreement with an agricultural corporation. The grape strike continued and the two organizations (“AWA” and “NFWA”) merged in 1967 to form the United Farm Workers Organizing Committee (“UFWOC”). As the main UFWOC negotiator, Dolores successfully negotiated more contracts for farm workers, she also set up hiring halls, the farm workers ranch committees, administrated the contracts and conducted over one hundred grievance and arbitration procedures on behalf of the workers.

These contracts established the first medical and pension benefits for farm workers and safety plans in the history of agriculture. Dolores spoke out early against toxic pesticides that threaten farm workers, consumers, and the environment. The early UFWOC agreements required growers to stop using such dangerous pesticides as DDT and Parathyon. Dolores organized field strikes, directed the grape, lettuce and Gallo Wine boycotts, and led the farm workers in campaigns for political candidates. As a legislative advocate, Dolores became one of the UFW’s most visible spokespersons. Robert F. Kennedy acknowledged her, the farm workers, and Cesar’s help in winning the 1968 California Democratic Presidential Primary moments before he was assassinated in Los Angeles.

Dolores directed the UFW’s national grape boycott that resulted in the entire California table grape industry signing a three-year collective bargaining agreement with the United Farm Workers.

In 1973 the grape contracts expired and the grape growers signed sweetheart contracts with the Teamsters Union. Dolores organized picket lines and continued to lobby. The UFW continued to organize not only the grape workers but the workers in the vegetable industry as well until violence erupted and farm workers were being killed. Once again the UFW turned to the consumer boycott. Dolores directed the east coast boycott of grapes, lettuce, and Gallo wines. The boycott resulted in the enactment of the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act of 1975, the first law of its kind that grants farm workers the right to collectively organize and bargain for better wages and working conditions.

In 1974 she was instrumental in securing unemployment benefits for farm workers. In 1985 Dolores lobbied against federal guest worker programs and spearheaded legislation granting amnesty for farm workers that had lived, worked, and paid taxes in the United States for many years but unable to enjoy the privileges of citizenship. This resulted in the Immigration Act of 1985 in which 1,400,000 farm workers received amnesty.

Dolores worked with Cesar for over thirty years until his death in 1993. Together they founded the Robert Kennedy Medical Plan, the Juan De La Cruz Farm Workers Pension Fund, the Farm Workers Credit Union, the first medical and pension plans and credit union in history for farm workers. They also formed the National Farm Workers Service Center (visit www.NSWSC.org) which today provides affordable housing with over 3,700 rental and 600 single family dwelling units, and educational radio with over nine Spanish Speaking Radio Stations throughout California, Washington and Arizona.

In 2002 Dolores was the second recipient of the Puffin Foundation/Nation Institute Award for Creative Citizenship (visit www.nationinstitute.org) that included a $100,000 grant which she utilized to establish her long time dream, the Dolores Huerta Foundation’s Organizing Institute.

The Foundation’s mission is to focus on community organizing and leadership training in low-income under-represented communities.

At age seventy-five (75), Dolores Huerta still works long hours serving as President of the Dolores Huerta Foundation leading the development of the organization and the Organizing Institute as well as the community organizing. It is not unusual to find her traveling regularly to cities across North America educating the public on public policy issues affecting immigrants, women, and youth. She speaks at colleges and organizations throughout the country in support of “La Causa”.

Dolores is a board member for the Feminist Majority Foundation (visit www.feminist.org) that advocates for gender balance. She is also teaching a class on community organizing at the University of Southern California.

Dolores C. Huerta is also Secretary-Treasure Emeritus of the United Farm Workers of America, AFL-CIO (UFW). She is the mother of 11 children, 20 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.

AWARDS

As an advocate for immigrant workers rights, Dolores has been arrested twenty-two times for non-violent peaceful union activities. In 1984 the California state senate bestowed upon her the Outstanding Labor Leader Award. In 1993 Dolores was inducted into the Nation Women’s Hall of Fame. That same year she received the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) Roger Baldwin Medal of Liberty Award; the Eugene V. Debs Foundation Outstanding American Award, and the Ellis Island Medal of Freedom Award. She is also the recipient of the Consumers’ Union Trumpeter’s Award. In 1998 she was one of the three Ms. Magazine’s “Women of the Year”, and the Ladies Home Journal’s “100 Most Important Women of the 20th Century”. In 1998 Dolores received the United States Presidential Eleanor D. Roosevelt Human Rights Award from President Clinton. On December 8, 2002 she received the Nation/Puffin Award for Creative Citizenship. In 2003 she received a short term appointment as a University of California Regent.

Talk:The Pagan Beliefs Surrounding Christmas

Hi -- wikibooks is for textbooks, so I humbly suggest that this material might be better suited for an article in Wikipedia. --Waxmop 20:28, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * Yes you are right, focusing on Christmas is too narrow. What I will do is create a book about Paganism, and add a chapter about how Paganism influences on western holidays. While I am at it, ill include other holydays that have pagan traits. --Zoohouse 00:32, 30 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Zoohouse, I like your work here. Please keep up the great work. --Karl Wick 22:07, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)

 * Thank you Karl Wick :)

Moving The Pagan Beliefs Surrounding Christmas
I have been thinking, maybe we should move this book to ''Pagan Beliefs Surrounding Western. Holidays'' What do you folks think? Any suggestions? --Zoohouse 03:47, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Nice work, why not Wikipedia
To reiterate Waxmop's point, while your content is great, Wikibooks is just for textbooks. If this book covered how to celebrate Christmas the Pagan way, it then would be a textbook. But as it is now, it's just information on the subject. If you move your writing over to Wikipedia, more people will read it, as the encyclopedia is higher trafficked. -- user:zanimum

But if I were to write showing how western holidays are based on pagan belifs, whouldn't it be a textbook? --Zoohouse 20:46, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Sure, in some sense, any elaborate explanation of any subject could be considered a textbook. So, under that definition, all material should be included in the wikibooks page. However, in practice, the term textbook has taken on a particular meaning in the wikibooks context. The most popular projects fit any of the following criteria:

 * The work teaches you how to do something, like play a game, or speak a foreign language,
 * The work is an alternative to textbooks used in some mainstream educational curriculum, like US history.

I don't see how your work fits either. Meanwhile your work does look similar to the myriad paganism articles already under development on wikipedia. You're more likely to attract other contributors there than here. Nobody is going to force you to relocate, but you're going against the spirit of the site. --Waxmop 21:54, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I dont seem to be able to find myriad paganism articles... Can you point me to the right direction? --Zoohouse 17:20, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

This is what Wikipedia had to say about Wikibooks: "The project is a collection of free textbooks, manuals, and other texts, with supporting book-based texts, that is written collaboratively on this website."

Wikibooks was opened so to "bring education to humanity and reduce the costs and other limitations on learning materials." I dont see how I am going against the spirit of the site. --Zoohouse 17:38, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I say this could belong on both Wikipedia and wikibooks, however, this work would do much better on wikipedia due to popularity. It doesn't take much to transwiki anyway. --Dragontamer 00:32, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

Christmas already has information on these pagan beliefs, including possibly some information not in this book. This book seems too long to move to Wikipedia, so I would keep at Wikibooks. --Kernigh 03:03, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Electrostatic fields

A static field
We call a field static field when it does not change with time explicitly. Electric fields due to static or stationary charge distributions are electrostatic fields. For example, if we have a charge held fixed somewhere in the space, it creates an electrostatic field. And when it is moving, it creates an electrodynamic field (the charge distribution changes with time explicitly). But when I have a static current of charges in a wire, it creates an electrostatic field (and later it will be seen that moving charges create magnetic field too) because although the charges are moving, the charge distribution in the space is not changing with time as we have a fixed current.

The idea of static field must not be confused as it is the same always. Sometimes in electrostatics we encounter problems when the charge distribution do change but we wish to study the final theme when everything is static (as example, when we place a small charge near a conducting surface, it creates induced charges on the conducting surface and thus changes the charge distribution; but in study of electrostatics we are concerned about what the ultimate charge distribution or field will be there and not about what was happening when the charge distribution was changing).

Electric Field
The electric force acting on a charged object can be interpreted as being produced by some property of the space where that object is located. That property of space that leads to forces over the electrostatic charges is called Electric field denoted as E

In mathematical terms, the electric field can be defined precisely in the following way: at any point in space the electric field is a vector $$\vec{E}$$ obtained by dividing the force $$\vec{F}$$ acting on a point charge $$q_0$$ placed in that point, over the value of the charge:

$$\vec{E} = \frac{\vec{F}}{q_0}$$

With
 * $$\vec{E}$$ Vector Electric field
 * $$F$$ Electric force
 * $$q_0$$ Point charge

Electric Potential
The source of the electric field can be either other electrostatic charges, or a varying magnetic field. If the field is produced by static electric charge distribution, it is called electrostatic field. In that case, it can be shown that is is a conservative field; namely, the path integral of the field between two points is independent of the path. As a consequence, it is possible to define a potential function: the potential in any point of space $$(x,y,z)$$ is equal to the path integral of the electrostatic field from an arbitrary reference point $$P_0$$ until the point $$(x,y,z)$$.

$$V(x,y,z) = -\int_{P_0}^{(x,y,z)} \vec{E}\cdot d\vec{l}$$

Thus, the electrostatic potential (also known as voltage) is a scalar field and it can be proved that the gradient of that scalar field is equal to minus the electrostatic field:

$$\vec{E} = -\vec{\nabla} V$$

GROUP WORK I have experienced working with a group many times. I don't like presenting in front of people, so doing a group presentation helps me stay calm when I'm presenting. I had experienced when one group member did all the work which is very unfair because all members of the group got credit for the work which they didn't do. I have also experienced where all members of the group did an equal amount of work. I feel it can also be difficult to work in a group because everyone has their opinions and because of that members can have a lot of disagreement and debates. Everyone should compromise when working in a group. Ppallavi20 (talk) 20:16, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

ARTICLE EVALUATIONS (questions 3 & 4) Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?

The viewpoints on the article are average I don't believe it is overrepresented because it is stating facts on Esalen. I did seem to find the article be underrepresented in some sections such as early history, founders, gestalt practice developed, develop counterculture workshops, and more. More facts can be added in those parts for the readers. I also feel more can be added to media portrayals. The citation links do work and the support the claims in the article.Ppallavi20 (talk) 21:46, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Cookbook:Lemon

Lemons are citrus fruit from the tree Citrus limon. They are cultivated primarily for their juice, though the pulp and rind are also used, primarily in cooking or mixology. Lemon juice is about 5% citric acid, which gives lemons a sour taste.

Lemons were not cultivated in the West until after the Arab conquests. They were cultivated in Genoa in the mid-fifteenth century, and appeared in the Azores in 1494. Lemons were once used by the British navy to combat scurvy, as they provided a large amount of vitamin C. The British navy originally thought lemons were overripe limes which they resemble and their sailors became known as limeys, not lemonys.

Both lemons and limes are regularly served as lemonade (natural lemon with water and sugar) or limeade, its equivalent, or as a garnish for drinks such as cola with a slice either inside or on the rim of the glass. Lemon juice is typically dripped onto battered fish dishes in restaurants in the United Kingdom and other countries—the acidic juice neutralizes the taste of amines in fish. Some like to eat lemons as fruit.

Lemon juice contains approximately 500 milligrams of vitamin C and 50 grams of citric acid per liter.

Zest
Lemon zest, when used as an ingredient, refers to shavings of the thin yellow outer skin of the lemon. The zest contains strong smelling oils which are used to flavor many baked goods. One can remove the zest from a lemon by using a small-holed grater, a microplane, or by carefully cutting the zest with a knife then mincing the results. Ideally, none of the white pith should be included with the zest. Be sure to scrub and wash the outer skin first to remove any remaining pesticide.

Sustainable urban development

In the post industrial age we have come to realize some of the deleterious effects of technology. Pollution and over utilization of natural resources has created negative effects on human health and well being. This course on sustainable urban development will discuss how to best plan for the challenges posed by huge populations and what appears to be limited space and natural resources.

Eminent physicist Stephen Hawking once stated that humans must colonize the cosmos in order to survive as a species. Since colonizing planets, extrasolar or otherwise is not currently a possibility, we must use the resources we have as efficiently as possible. Utilizing the resources we currently have in the most efficient manner can potentially allow humans to live, and even thrive in conditions of high population densities while still keeping the earth in a healthy and pristine condition.

It follows then that studying sustainable urban development allows one to see how to best face the limiting conditions we face. Through this course we will discuss systems of keeping water clean, disposing of waste, using non toxic materials, and renewable resources, etc.

Topics
Technologies and areas that will be explored are:

Sustainable best practices

 * Permaculture
 * Improving the production cycle
 * LEED sustainability Ratings
 * Sustainable business practices
 * Maximizing efficiency in buildings
 * Sustainable manufacturing
 * Rain water management
 * Carbon offsetting
 * Net metering
 * Promoting public transit

Alternative energy

 * Alternative Power Sources
 * Biofuels
 * Electric Vehicles
 * Battery Technologies

Natural energy and energy from waste

 * Plasma arc waste disposal (gasification)
 * Algae use in biofuels
 * Cellocitic Ethanol
 * Wind Power
 * Solar Power

Local projects

 * Paducah2020 - Paducah, Kentucky (USA)

Liquid Dreams (song)

"Liquid Dreams" is a song recorded by American boy band O-Town. It was released on October 31, 2000, as the lead single from their debut album, O-Town. The song reached number one in Canada, number 10 in the United States, and number three in the United Kingdom. The song is about wet dreams filled with sexual innuendos and pop culture references, including references to Destiny's Child, Madonna, and Janet Jackson.

Background
O-Town was assembled for the first season of the ABC reality television series Making the Band. Originally Ikaika Kahoano was one of the five members selected but he and his family decided he should go to med school instead causing him to back out, making way for Dan Miller who was selected by the four remaining members.

The ratings of Making the Band were strong enough to warrant a second (and eventually third) season. These subsequent seasons depicted their development as a pop group, following their tours and performances. Such events included the development of their second album, O2, their transition to a new record label (J Records), and an ongoing effort to establish themselves. The third season of Making the Band was broadcast on MTV, instead of the original network, ABC. After season one, Clive Davis of J Records signed O-Town to his new label as he believed in the marketability of the group, and scheduled O-Town to be the label's debut act.

The song references a dozen famous female actresses and musicians including Destiny's Child, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Cindy Crawford, Tyra Banks, Angelina Jolie, Salma Hayek, and Halle Berry. The name Jennifer is mentioned, but no last name is given, leading to speculation that it may be Jennifer Lopez, Jennifer Aniston or Jennifer Love Hewitt.

Guitar/Tuning the Guitar

Advances in manufacturing have solved many of the tuning problems associated with the budget guitars of yesteryear. Entry level guitars are available from major manufacturers such as Yamaha and Fender which are entirely suitable for beginners. All guitar stores sell tuning forks and electronic tuners. A tuning fork provides a single reference note for tuning and for this reason an electronic tuner will be more useful to the complete beginner.

When new strings have been put on a guitar they often fall out of tune very easily. New strings will stretch until they reach a point where their elasticity diminishes and then they will remain at the correct tension and frequency. Strings need to be broken in. It will take time to work all the slack out of the strings but the process can be sped up. Put on new strings and tune to just below concert pitch using an electronic guitar tuner. Then pull each string an inch away from the fretboard and this will instantly put them out of tune. Use your electronic guitar tuner to retune the strings to just below concert pitch and repeat the process. After a while the slack should be gone from the strings and the guitar can be tuned to concert pitch and should stay in tune.

Tuning the Guitar
Sound is created by the disturbance of particles in the air. The vibrations of a struck string causes the air particles to moves in waves which the ear receives and the brain interprets. When a string is attached to two points, as the strings on a guitar are, then striking it causes a sound to be produced at a regular frequency. The length, thickness and tension of the string determines the pitch of the note it produces. If you have a string of a certain length and tension stretched across a wooden board which produced a known frequency and you wished to double the frequency to produce the note an octave above - you simply halve the distance that it is stretched across and keep the same tension. That is exactly what happens on a guitar when you fret any of the open strings at the twelfth fret.

There are many different tunings for the open strings of the guitar but the most common is known as standard tuning or E tuning. In standard tuning the open strings should be tuned to the notes E A D G B e.

The diagram below illustrates the open strings and the twelfth fret. Note that the upper case E represents the thickest string and the lower case e represents the thinnest string. The diagram is orientated towards the player's view.

e|---| B|---| G|---| D|---| A|---| E|---|

Four-Five Tuning
Four-Five tuning uses the open A string as the first reference note. A tuning aid is useful to ensure that the open A string is at concert pitch.

Concert pitch is an Internationally agreed standard that assigns A = 440 Hz. The guitar is a transposing instrument and is notated an octave higher than its actual pitch to avoid having to use the bass clef in standard notation. The notated middle C is played on the third fret of the A string though the pitched middle C is to be found on the first fret of the B string. A = 440 Hz is the fifth fret of the high e string but for convenience the open A string (110 Hz) is used as the reference note.

The diagram below shows the notes to be fretted.

e|---0---| B|---0---5---| G|---0---4---| D|---0---5---| A|---0---5---| E|---5---|

Follow these six steps to tune your guitar using the Four-Five method:

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6

It is recommended that strings be brought up to their correct pitch when tuning. The Four-Five method has the disadvantage of progressively increasing tuning inaccuracies by the use of multiple reference notes.

Harmonic Tuning
This method of tuning uses harmonics. By lightly touching a string directly above its fret-wire the fundamental of a note is silenced leaving only a series of overtones. Any note played on any instrument consists of a fundamental and a harmonic series of overtones. The twelfth, seventh and fifth nodes are the easiest frets with which to sound harmonics. After striking the string the finger should be removed quickly to produce the harmonic.

The fretboard diagram below shows the pairs of harmonics that are used. You start by tuning the harmonic on the 7th fret of the A string to the harmonic on the low E string. Then the harmonic on the 7th fret of the D string is tuned with the harmonic on the 5th fret of the A string. Tuning the G string to the D string is done in the same manner. Tune the harmonic on the B string to the harmonic on the 4th fret of the G string. Tune the harmonic on the e string to the harmonic on the B string.

e|-7*| B|5*-| G|--4*-7*| * = Play a harmonic at this fret D|5*---7*| A|5*---7*| E|5*-|

Tuning with harmonics can progressively increase tuning errors due to the use of multiple reference notes. The fundamental is the most dominant frequency of the harmonic series and it is recommended that a further tuning check be made using fretted notes.

Tempered Tuning
This method is recommended because it applies equal temperament with the use of a single reference note. This method uses the open high e string as the reference note. You tune the unison and octave E notes that are found on the other strings to the open high e string. Hold the fretted note down as you turn the tuning peg and you will feel the string move under your fingertip. This involves striking the strings with your right hand and then using the right hand to turn the tuning pegs. If may feel awkward at first but with practice it becomes familiar. The open low E string is the only string to be tuned to the high e string without fretting. The fretted note on the 5th fret of the B string should be tuned wide by the amount of two beats per second in relation to the high e string.

2022 UEFA Europa Conference League final

The 2022 UEFA Europa Conference League Final was the final match of the 2021–22 UEFA Europa Conference League, the first season of Europe's tertiary club football tournament organised by UEFA. It was played on 25 May 2022 at the Arena Kombëtare in Tirana, Albania, between Italian club Roma and Dutch club Feyenoord.

Roma won the match 1–0 to secure the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League title, the first club from Italy to win a UEFA competition in 12 years. As they had already qualified for the group stage of the 2022–23 UEFA Europa League via their domestic league performance, that competition's access list was rebalanced, with Feyenoord qualifying for the group stage instead of play-off round as the third place in the 2021–22 Eredivisie. If Roma had not qualified for the Champions League or the Europa League through their league performance, they would have received a place in the Europa League group stage instead.

Venue

The match was the first UEFA competition final to be played in Albania. The 21,690-seat Arena Kombëtare is the home stadium of the Albania national team, as well as clubs Dinamo Tirana and Partizani. Construction of the stadium began in 2016 and was completed by November 2019.

Host selection
A bidding process was launched by UEFA to select the venues of the finals of the UEFA Europa Conference League in 2022 and 2023. Associations interested in hosting one of the finals had until 20 February 2020 to submit bid dossiers.

Arena Kombëtare was selected by the UEFA Executive Committee during their meeting on 3 December 2020.

Background
This was Roma's third final in a major UEFA competition, having lost the 1984 European Cup final to Liverpool and the 1991 UEFA Cup final to fellow Italian club Inter Milan, who were the most recent Italian club to reach a European final – losing in the 2020 UEFA Europa League final. Roma was seeking to win their first trophy since the 2007–08 Coppa Italia, and a first European title for an Italian side since Inter won the 2010 UEFA Champions League final. Their head coach José Mourinho, having become the first manager to reach European finals with four different clubs – including the aforementioned 2010 Champions League final, was seeking to become only the third manager – after Udo Lattek and Giovanni Trapattoni – to have won all three existing major European trophies, and the first to achieve the UEFA treble by winning the European Champion Clubs' Cup/UEFA Champions League, UEFA Cup/Europa League, and UEFA Europa Conference League (in place of the now-defunct UEFA Cup Winners' Cup).

This was Feyenoord's fourth final in a major UEFA competition, having won the 1970 European Cup final and both the 1974 and 2002 UEFA Cup finals. The first Dutch club to reach a European final since Ajax lost the 2017 UEFA Europa League final to Mourinho's Manchester United and the most recent to win a European title, they were seeking to join Juventus, Ajax, Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Manchester United as the only clubs to have won all three existing major European trophies, and the first to achieve the UEFA treble by winning the European Champion Clubs' Cup/UEFA Champions League, UEFA Cup/Europa League and UEFA Europa Conference League (again in place of the Cup Winners' Cup). Their head coach Arne Slot was seeking to become the first Dutch to win a European trophy since Dick Advocaat with Zenit Saint Petersburg in the 2008 UEFA Super Cup.

The two sides previously met twice in European competitions, in the 2014–15 UEFA Europa League round of 32, with Roma won one and drew one.

Route to the final
Note: In all results below, the score of the finalist is given first (H: home; A: away).

Identity
The logo of the 2022 UEFA Europa Conference League Final was unveiled at the group stage draw on 27 August 2021 in Istanbul.

Ambassador
The ambassador for the final was former Albanian international Lorik Cana.

Officials

On 11 May 2022, UEFA announced Romanian István Kovács, a FIFA referee since 2010, would officiate the final. Kovács officiated six matches in the 2021–22 Champions League, three matches in the 2021–22 Europa League and one group stage fixture in the 2021–22 Europa Conference League season. He served as a referee at UEFA Euro 2020, where he officiated one group stage match. He also was a referee at the 2014 UEFA European Under-19 Championship, 2019 UEFA European Under-21 Championship and 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup. He was joined by his fellow countrymen Vasile Marinescu and Ovidiu Artene as assistant referees. Sandro Schärer of Switzerland served as the fourth official, while German Marco Fritz was appointed as the video assistant referee. Fritz's compatriots Christian Dingert and Bastian Dankert served as the assistant and support VAR officials, respectively.

Details
The "home" team (for administrative purposes) was determined by an additional draw held after the quarter-final and semi-final draws.

Wikipedia talk:Meetup/Online edit-a-thon SDGs September 2020/Tasks

This is the place where you can ask questions about this edit-a-thon
Hi,

I am EMsmile, and I am a part of a group of people wishing to improve SDG-related articles on Wikipedia which is why we are organising this edit-a-thon. If you have any questions about this work, please feel free to ask your questions here. Just add a new section heading, like this:

== My Question XXX == My question or comment is this...

If you're new to Wikipedia I should point out: Please sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ) when you post on talk pages. This will automatically produce your username and the date. You can find the "tilde" character on your keyboard. For example on English keyboards it tends to be to the left of the "enter" key.

This page explains in more detail how to use Talk pages: Help:Talk_pages. EMsmile (talk) 15:44, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

Perfect SDG article: why criticism section?
In Meetup/Online_edit-a-thon_SDGs_September_2020/Tasks, one of the suggested section headings is criticism. Per WP:CRITICISM, sections like that should be avoided. Femke Nijsse (talk) 07:43, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
 * @Femke Nijsse thanks a lot for pointing that out, I didn't know that! I think an easy solution would be to rename it to "reception" or to "controversies" - what do you think? I think we need such a section for each of the SDG articles because the UN might praise/glorify things but NGOs or academics might have identified particular flaws - like you can see here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_Development_Goals#Criticisms EMsmile (talk) 09:08, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

Reception would work. Controversies has a similar effect of attracting negative opinions instead of a balance of opinions. Alternatively, criticism may be added to the appropriate sections. If there is criticism only on one aspect of sdg, it probably should go in the section of that aspect. Femke Nijsse (talk) 09:39, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Perfect. I have made that change now to the outline. Thanks for alerting us to this! EMsmile (talk) 10:59, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

To do's for SDG experts and volunteers
I am listing here some things that the SDG experts and volunteers could tackle during the edit-a-thon:
 * Discussion about new indicators that were added recently (with references)
 * Indicators that expire in 2020 - what comes after those? (with references)
 * A good starting point could be this paper: http://www.nature.com/articles/s41545-018-0003-0 (Bartram, Jamie; Brocklehurst, Clarissa; Bradley, David; Muller, Mike; Evans, Barbara (2018). "Policy review of the means of implementation targets and indicators for the sustainable development goal for water and sanitation")
 * Look in the literature for discussions/controversies about targets, indicators for specific SDGs.
 * Think about whether individual country pages on SDGs make sense, see for example: Sustainable Development Goals and Iran EMsmile (talk) 04:45, 4 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Check if new chunks of text that are being added by newbies violate copyright laws, or are in any case just copied across without paraphrasing. Here is a link to a tool that can pick up such copyright violations. EMsmile (talk) 15:50, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Find out who the custodian agencies are the for different SDGs (currently this is specified in the SDG 6 and SDG 7 articles but not in the others).
 * Find dedicated progress reports for the different SDGs (currently only found them for SDG 6 and SDG 7)
 * Explain why some targets include a target year and others do not (see List of Sustainable Development Goal targets and indicators). When there is no year given, does it mean it's for the year 2030? EMsmile (talk) 15:42, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Reports to utilize

 * Goal Keepers 2020 Report (Each year the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation publishes this report to track 18 indicators included in the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, including poverty, education, health care, gender equality and more) https://www.gatesfoundation.org/goalkeepers/report/2020-report/#GlobalPerspective
 * The Sustainable Development Goals Report 2020. It's similar to the HLPF report from 2020 but more detailed.
 * Here is a report by Worldbank which probably has content that could be utilised: The 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda and the World Bank Group: Closing the SDGs Financing Gap 2019 Update EMsmile (talk) 13:59, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
 * A page by the UN with metadata which explains how the different indicators are calculated (but doesn't give results), see here. EMsmile (talk) 05:09, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Search for more reports by following the external links from the SDG article here.EMsmile (talk) 05:30, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Good reference site for Sustainable Development Report 2020, an annual review of countries performance on the SDGs. Includes the SDG Index and Dashboards. Data presented here is from the publication Sachs et al. (2020): The Sustainable Development Goals and Covid-19. Sustainable Development Report 2020. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. https://dashboards.sdgindex.org/ 2030 SDGs (talk) 04:37, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

More publications about reception/criticism
This link: https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/rglo20/14/3?nav=tocList& leads to an interesting collection of scholarly articles criticising various aspects of the SDGs. We should utilise these for our section on "reception" in the article SDG and also for the individual SDG articles. (If it gets too bit, it might eventually warrant a separate article called "Controversies about SDGs" or something like that.) @User:Joe_Roe: I am curious how you found that link; what search method did you use? EMsmile (talk) 06:30, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

 * I don't remember exactly; plugging something like "sustainable development goals critique/globalisation/neoliberalism" into Google Scholar and following some references. If you do a search like that there is a huge volume of critical literature on the SDGs. – Joe (talk) 14:41, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

Feedback on Do's and Dont's
Consider grouping the Do's and Don'ts under the sub-headings of Beginner and Intermediate. In the current configuration, a beginner has to scroll through the advanced Do's before getting to the beginner don'ts. As a beginner, I've found the points easy to read and follow. 2030 SDGs (talk) 03:40, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi 2030 SDGs, thanks for this feedback. I'll make the change now. Glad you found the list useful! I think the biggest problem is that most people want to jump straight in and don't want to read any instruction manuals at all... (I was a bit like that too when I started!). But even if just 20% of the new editors for this editathon read them, it's already a bonus. 13:48, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

Accuracy of indicators (they keep changing)
I just noticed that all sorts of changes have been made this year to the indicators for SDG 13 (and also for other SDGs)... I have been using the versions for the indicators provided by SDG Results Tracker and also here the March version: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Sustainable_Development_Goal_targets_and_indicators but more changes were made in April: https://unstats.un.org/sdgs/files/List_of_changes_since_15_Oct_2018.pdf  I think we should provide some information in the Wikipedia SDG articles that changes have been made and why (if we have references for that). I guess we should generally try to list the most recent version of the indicators (but also mention about important changes that have been made)... But we'll have to ponder over how detailed we want to make it at the end of the day? It probably doesn't make sense to document every single change in indicator wording. I guess in general we want to just have the most recent version of the indicators in our SDG articles. Just showing one example. Old: Indicator 13.3.1 "Number of countries that have integrated mitigation, adaptation, impact reduction and early warning into primary, secondary and tertiary curricula." New: 13.3.1 "Extent to which (i) global citizenship education and (ii) education for sustainable development are mainstreamed in (a) national education policies; (b) curricula; (c) teacher education; and (d) student assessment." EMsmile (talk) 12:03, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Publishing a new article
I've been developing a sandbox article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:2030_SDGs/Sustainability_Development_Goals_and_Australia and would like some advice on next steps to share it, without my user name. I would like to have it circulating during Global Goals Week.

Kind regards, 2030 SDGs (talk) 01:06, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Hi 2030 SDGs, looking good! What do you mean by "without my user name"? You could create a new article and cut and paste the contents of your sandbox to there. However, I don't think the content is as yet sufficient for a new article. I would probably suggest that you move it to the main SDG article (a spin-off stand-alone article can still be created later). By the way, are you also in Workspace for the edit-a-thon? It's another fun way of interacting with all the other volunteers of the edit-a-thon as well. The link to workspace should be in the e-mail that you should have received from Kiana. EMsmile (talk) 01:15, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

 * HI EMsmile. My user name in the hyperlink. I have assumed that it is still in the sandbox and there might have been a publication process that once 'live' my user name is removed from the hyperlink. If it is cut and paste then fantastic.  I agree there is not enough there. I am updating it today with a lot more content. Once that its done I will let you know. I havent received an email from Kiana. I did register the article here https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Project_Everyone/Global_Goals_Week_Virtual_Edit-a-thon_on_SDGs . Is the workspace different?  2030 SDGs (talk) 01:28, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, when you create a new article it'll be cut and paste. Think carefully about the title of the new article; is Sustainability Development Goals and Australia ideal? I am not totally sure. If it is, then you would just click on the red link and create it from there. I have forwarded Kiana's e-mail to you. Thanks for alerting me to the problem of mail delivery for this one ! As you were registered as a volunteer you should have received it. Workplace is pretty groovy and I think it'll help us to motivate each other and learn and make some new connections along the way. I think we have a nice bunch of people there! I have now put the link to Workplace also here. EMsmile (talk) 01:53, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

Citation on mobile phone
Hi. I am having issues with citations and I watched the YouTube videos recommended on the SDG how to edit page but nothing so far have taught me how to add citations/reference using a mobile phone. Please help! So far, I added since I don't know how to do 'cite' myself. Hope it's not a problem? Obiorah Precious Oby (talk) 18:58, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Have you watched the videos that are listed here (towards the top of the page): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Online_edit-a-thon_SDGs_September_2020/Tasks#Watch_%22How_to%22_tutorial_videos ? However, they were made for the desktop version. I am not sure if adding citations via a mobile phone is all that doable. Let's discuss further but it might be easier to do it in our virtual workrooom (Workplace). Are you in the Workplace group yet? If not, see Step 3 under Registration here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Online_edit-a-thon_SDGs_September_2020#Registration. And yes, the "citation needed" tag is a good interim solution. EMsmile (talk) 02:23, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

 * That's great, thanks for that, Esteban and for all your help and moral support during the edit-a-thon! I'll make sure to include that in the final report, and also in the report that I'll post on the event page. Can I link to a page where the 5 participants, 27 new articles and the improved articles are listed somehow? EMsmile (talk) 06:11, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

Hello,

Honestly I'm not entirely sure what to put here. I like anything to do with music, chemistry, history, and generally I like contributing to knowledge about these things.

However I'm not actually very intelligent when it comes to that, so I will likely just fix minor errors or just general quality of life in hopes it can help someone else who can genuinely help.

Either that, or I will spend hours on end researching and rechecking anything I could possibly add or correct, and it could be something as small as pronunciation or the lyrics of a song.

I can't think of anything else to add, I'll probably come back later. :)

Useful stuffs I hope:
Google Scholar for extensive research

Convert toPhonetics, read them back, and then understand pronunciation

MusicTheory.net because music is really hard :(

pTable because elements and their history are super interesting
