EditGrid
A web application still in beta. How many users? Doesn't say. Innovation? Not stated. I see no evidence oa passing WP:SOFTWARE here. Just zis Guy you know? 14:03, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep. The software has been verifiably reported in the Spanish version of PC World (an IDG publication) and the NetworkWorld newsletter.  I'll be adding these references shortly.  --Pkchan 14:20, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * One of those is a non-trivial mention, the other two look like much less substantial coverage and are not in English anyway (this is en: after all). Multiple non-trivial mentions is what we're lokking for here, please. Just zis Guy you know? 15:44, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Agree that the Spanish reference is weak, but the Portuguese one is a product comparison between Google Spreadsheets, EditGrid and another player in this emerging and competitve market of web spreadsheets. And being non-English shouldn't discredit the reference -- isn't Project Systematic Bias about countering the bias in coverage of topics where non-English speakers touch on less often?  --Pkchan 16:03, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Indeed it is. But JzG's main point was that they appear to be trivial, i.e. that they contain no more information about the subject than could populate an entry in a directory of software products.  You're doing the right thing, though: Looking for published works.  You'll clearly change JzG's mind if you can find multiple non-trivial ones. Uncle G 16:15, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I have added some more external references (unforunately they are all non-English). None of them is a dedicated review of EditGrid but, like the one from the Portueguese IDG quoted above, they are (especially the Haaretz one), they are articles devoted to a mid-length comparison between the various players in the online spreadsheet field after Google's entry, and offer far more than trivial mentions in a software directory.  --Pkchan 05:21, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

 *  AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.  Please add new discussions below this notice. Thanks,  Sango 123  03:09, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete spam for a yet to be officially released product --Xrblsnggt 04:20, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * It cannot be counted as unreleased, since many Web 2.0 products name themselves as "Beta" nowadays, even when they are considered released by the general public. See "perpetual beta" in Web 2.0. --Alan Tam 09:10, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Gmail and, until recently, Flickr are in beta as well. --Pkchan 10:41, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - It may not exist yet, but being mentioned in several articles, even if their not in english and thus I can't read them (except kinda the Spanish one), makes it notable. --PresN 05:31, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Artw 06:41, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. I agree that Pkchan's citation demonstrated that it is a notable software product. --Alan Tam 09:10, 17 August 2006 (UTC) user's first edit.
 * Weak keep per Pkchan, PresN, and Alan Tam. --HResearcher 10:03, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I have added a couple more references in the article, all of which are from reliable sources. There are also numerous mentions in the blogosphere, as have been listed on this page from the EditGrid site and can be verified by searching at Technorati.  I believe that these have satisfied the "multiple non-trivial references" requirement in WP:SOFTWARE.  --Pkchan 10:41, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. The references are not from reliable sources. Blogs and your own words are not reliable sources, and a passing one line mention in Ars Technica isn't enough to confer notability, nor does calling your application "Web 2.0." It's just a buzzword. RasputinAXP   11:50, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment None of the references quoted in the article are from blogs. The claim of notabiliy also lies in a product review published by Network World as well as product comparison articles published by IDG, Haaretz, and PC World.  --Pkchan 11:57, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, it is released, is available, and has been written about. The article is sourced, and doesn't really read like an ad.  ONUnicorn 15:29, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Surprised to find this page listed for deletion, as I have encountered a few web sites who are already using EditGrid to store and present data (such as ). Seems to have addressed the questions posted by nominator above. --John Seward 15:34, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Cause I think EditGrid is relevant technology and belongs into an encyclopedia. --Anonymous 14:30, 17 August 2006 (EST)
 * Keep. EDITGRID does exist in real life, and thus as with everything existing it deserves an entry in Wiki. I wonder what all the fuss is about deleting it. --Anonymous
 * Keep per PKchan. --badlydrawnjeff talk 01:20, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep I don't see any reason to delete this entry anymore. Everything seems in accordance with the Wikipedia guidelines. There are thousands more entries on Wikipedia that don't comform to the policy, I don't know why this one was particularly hand-picked. --wyuenho
 * Comment Just found EditGrid mentioned in print media in a product review of the web spreadsheets in the latest issue, issue 418 of e-zone (who claims to be the no. 1 "computer and digital" magazine in Hong Kong in terms of sales) published on 18th August. I've scanned the relevant pages and uploaded the images to this page for your review during this AfD. The images there will be removed after this AfD due to copyright concern. --John Seward 04:07, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - looks like this will be an important piece of software and the article is encyclopaedic. BlueValour 02:26, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

File:The Woodlands High School.jpg

The result of the discussion was: delete. — JJMC89  (T·C) 05:54, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
 * File:The Woodlands High School.jpg ([ delete] | talk | [ history] | links | [ logs])  – uploaded by Leonardocognoscenti ( [ notify] | contribs | uploads | upload log).

This image is in use at the school's web site and appears ti be used for announcements and whatnot like this. OTRS confirmation that the uploader is the copyright holder is required. Whpq (talk) 14:06, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

File:Nikon.Z-series.logo.svg

The result of the discussion was: keep. The logo is reasonably considered public domain in the US, so the only argument here is around whether to keep a local copy vs. using the copy on Commons. Historically enwiki is open to keep local requests for a variety of reasons. If there is a desire to tighten that, an RfC seems more appropriate than a single FFD. RL0919 (talk) 15:35, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
 * File:Nikon.Z-series.logo.svg ([ delete] | talk | [ history] | links | [ logs])  – uploaded by Locke Cole ( [ notify] | contribs | uploads | upload log).

It is lacking an author and a source. Note that there is a duplicate on Wikimedia Commons which is unused. When I asked the uploader the reason for the keep local tag, they refused to tell me. I've "no idea" why do we need to keep a local copy. Masum Reza 📞 18:19, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep, Keep local emphatically lists the "Reason" as optional. Further, this editor automatically assumed my reasoning was invalid on my user talk page before he even knew what it was. I disengaged, and this editor is now harassing me because he feels I am obligated to provide him a reason to keep the file local. From Template talk:Keep local:
 * I would further note that the unused copy on Commons was not uploaded by me, and it's lack of use there is not my problem. It is used here. —Locke Cole • t • c 18:43, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I would further note that the unused copy on Commons was not uploaded by me, and it's lack of use there is not my problem. It is used here. —Locke Cole • t • c 18:43, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

 * I am not harassing you. I know that the reason parameter is optional. I was curious, so I asked you the reason "politely". I know that you are not obligated to tell me the reason. I listed the file here to discuss the purpose of it. Note that the keep local template also states that it is allowed to nominate this file for deletion (not PROD or SD) provided the nominator notifies the tagger. Masum Reza 📞 20:14, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Why you are adding keep local tag to files when it is clearly not a valid reason?. These are your words. They were not polite. And I am done here. You have no valid reason to delete this image beyond WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Your attempt to harass me will fail. —Locke Cole • t • c 04:40, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Ok, I am sorry. I should have chosen better words. But that won't make me withdraw this nomination. As I've said I am here to discuss this file's purpose, if WP:IDONTLIKEIT was the case, I would have proded it. If you do not understand what is harrasment is, give WP:HARASS a read. I am following the right procedure here. Masum Reza 📞  10:08, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Stop edit warring . You are not an uninvolved editor, so you should not close/blank this discussion. Also please take a look at WP:NAC to see the proper procedure of non-admin closure. Why you are fixated on closing this request anyway. I've nothing against you, so please stop blanking it. Let the community decide. Masum Reza 📞 13:16, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Ok. I've had enough. Stop falsely accusing me of harrasment. That is not the proper way to close a discussion. Please let the discussion going. Masum Reza 📞 21:23, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete - Keeplocal isn't for personal preference; it's for when there's a reason a file isn't appropriate for Commons. There needs to be a reason to keep a local copy, not a reason not to. — Rhododendrites  talk \\ 23:05, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Spoken like someone who doesn't know what keep local was intended for... —Locke Cole • t • c 03:09, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Hmm. It does look like there's more of a precedent for this than I was aware of. I'm still not quite sold that is something we should support, but as mentioned, this isn't the venue to talk about the practice in general. Struck. — Rhododendrites  talk \\ 12:31, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete, redundant to Commons file. No obvious reason to keep local. Salavat (talk) 23:28, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I mean, besides me asking that it be kept here and it not depriving anyone of using it anywhere else? Are we really going to start being openly hostile to content uploaders like this? —Locke Cole • t • c 03:09, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
 * How 's comment is "hostile"? You are again falsely accusing other editors. Masum Reza 📞 02:18, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - I disagree, there needs to be a reason not to keep it locally, if the uploader asks to. A lot of people do not trust Commons, and the uploader is not notified of changes made to the file there; refusing to honor a harmless keep local request just discourages them from contributing images. This simple courtesy is provided to most editors on request. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:33, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
 * What gave you the idea that the uploader isn't notified on Commons? This file looks very much like a text logo and to delete this file one needs to start a deletion request because it doesn't meet any of the speedy deletion criteria on Commons. Also deletion discussion starters are required to notify the uploader. AjaxDelete gadget automatically notifies the uploader and the importer by default. Masum Reza 📞 02:14, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Sometimes it's not a deletion discussion, it's a speedy deletion. Sometimes the file is overwritten by someone else. I don't know if the notification of the uploader happens on Commons or on Wikipedia, but if it's on Commons then you'd have to be active there to get the notification.  There are all kinds of things that can happen to an image on Commons. --Floquenbeam (talk) 22:41, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, if a file meets CSD, it gets deleted on a Commons. Those who tag/delete the file are required to notify the uploader. There are guidelines on overwriting existing images on Commons and uploaders are supposed to abide by those rules. Even if someone isn't active on Commons they get email if someone messages them. So argument about notifying isn't much helpful. My point is if an image meets the licensing requirements and under the project scope on Commons, it should be transferred there. Please keep in mind that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an image hosting website. And Commons is the Wikimedia projects that hosts free files. That's why we have the F8 speedy deletion criteria. refusing to honor a harmless keep local request That's the same rationale as WP:HARMLESS. We have some alternative tags for example Do not copy to Commons, which can be used to prevent transferring files to Commons if a valid rationale is provided. I've only seen keep local tag on sensitive files or files are used on multiple templates. Masum Reza 📞 13:56, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per Floquenbeam, there is really no reason to delete this and and FFD discussion is no place to argue the validity of the keep local template. CodeLyoko  buzz  05:42, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I am not here to argue the validity of keep local tag. My point is that I don't see a reason to keep a local copy. I am here to discuss why we should keep a local copy. Masum Reza 📞 12:37, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the media's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this section.

Portland Academy and Female Seminary

The Portland Academy and Female Seminary was a private school in Portland, Oregon, United States, operated by the Methodist Episcopal Church from 1851 until 1876. Often abbreviated as the Portland Academy, the school was among the few secondary schools in Portland during the years of the Oregon Territory. Later it served briefly as an alternative to Portland High School.

History
The Portland Academy and Female Seminary was founded in 1851 on property donated by some of Portland's early residents. Although the area may not have been fully platted at the time, it corresponded to block 205 along Park Street on the Survey of Portland Map of 1852 and blocks 205 and 224 on East and West Park Avenue on later maps. The school's location was so remote in 1851 that some parents feared their children would get lost on their way to and from school. The property deed given to James H. Wilbur, a leader in the Methodist Episcopal Oregon Mission, specified "a male and female seminary," but for unknown reasons the school was named the Portland Academy and Female Seminary.

C. S. Kingsley, later Superintendent of Portland Public Schools, was the first principal. By 1852, P.G. Buchanan had become principal and Kingsley had returned to his duties for the Willamette District of the Methodist Mission. From the beginning, the school referred to teaching staff by gender specific titles, where men were teachers and women were preceptresses.

In 1854 the Oregon Territorial Legislature provided for funding of public schools, and in 1858 Portland's Central School opened on Sixth Avenue between Morrison and Yamhill Streets. Enrollment at the Portland Academy began to decrease, and when Portland High School was constructed in 1869, the Portland Academy soon became obsolete. It closed in 1876, and the property was deeded to Willamette University.

Unaffiliated institutions would later use the name, Portland Academy.

Monologue From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search For the Malayalam film, Monologue, see Anantaram. "Othello" 20090512 James Earl Jones - Othello (I. iii) at the White House (trimmed).ogv Play video James Earl Jones performs Othello's Act I, scene iii soliloquy from Shakespeare Othello at the White House Evening of Poetry, Music, and the Spoken Word on May 12, 2009. ] Problems listening to this file?

In theatre, a monologue (or monolog) is a speech presented by a single character, most often to express their thoughts aloud, though sometimes also to directly address another character or the audience. Monologues are common across the range of dramatic media (plays, films[1], etc.) as well as in non-dramatic media such as poetry.[2] Monologues share much in common with several other literary devices including soliloquies, apostrophes, and asides. There are, however, distinctions between each of these devices.[3] Contents [hide]

* 1 Similar Literary Devices * 2 History * 3 Types of Monologues * 4 Example * 5 See also * 6 References o 6.1 Footnotes o 6.2 Bibliography * 7 External links

[edit] Similar Literary Devices

Monologues are similar to soliloquies, apostrophes, and asides. Nevertheless, meaningful differences exist among them. For example, a monologue is distinct from a soliloquy because the latter involves a character relating his or her thoughts and feelings to him/herself and to the audience without addressing any of the other characters. A monologue is the thoughts of a person spoken out loud. [4] Monologues are also distinct from apostrophes, wherein the speaker or writer addresses an imaginary person, inanimate object, or idea.[5] Asides differ from each of these not only in terms of length (asides being shorter) but also in that asides aren't heard by other characters even in situations where they logically should be overheard (i.e. two characters engaging in a dialogue interrupted by one of them delivering an aside).[6] [edit] History

In ancient Greek theatre, the origin of western drama,[citation needed] the conventional three actor rule was preceded by a two actor rule, which was itself preceded by a convention in which only a single actor would appear on stage, accompanied by the chorus.[7] The origin of the monologue as a dramatic device, therefore, is not rooted in dialogue. It is, instead, the other way around; dialogue evolved from monologue.

Ancient Roman theatre featured monologues extensively, more often than either Ancient Greek theatre or modern theatre.[8] One of the key purposes of these monologues was to indicate the passage of significant amounts of time (that would be tedious to actually play out in real time) within scenes. This type of monologue is referred to as a linking monologue.[9] Other monologue types included "entrance monologues"[10] and exit monologues.[11] In each of these cases a primary function is indicating the passage of time.[12]

From Renaissance theatre onward, monologues generally focused on characters using the extended speech to pursue their dramatic need. Postmodern theatre, on the other hand, often embraces the performative aspects of the monologue, even to the point of challenging the boundary between character portrayal (e.g. acting) and autobiographical speeches.[13] [edit] Types of Monologues

Interior monologues involve a character externalizing their thoughts so that the audience can witness experiences that would otherwise be mostly internal. In contrast, a dramatic monologue involves one character speaking to another character.[14] Monologues can also be divided along the lines of active and narrative monologues. In an active monologue a character is using their speech to achieve a clear goal. Narrative monologues simply involve a character telling a story and can often be identified by the fact that they are in the past tense.[15] [edit] Example

Macbeth's monologue after he learns that Lady Macbeth has killed herself:

"She should have died hereafter; There would have been a time for such a word. To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing."[16] [edit] See also

Talk:Panay

[Untitled]
Is there a second Panay which is part of Catanduanes Province. I found something like this via Google. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 05:55, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Old name:Panama?
Is the old name Panama island? I see this name in old latin maps of the Philippines--Jondel 06:08, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Different languages have different names for places (Espana v. Spain, Vienna v. Wien). Could this just be an example? I think that unless there is an English reference to "Panama" or perhaps Spanish we can safely exclude such a reference in this article. --Bruce Hall (talk) 09:46, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Move request
From WP:RM:
 * Panay Island → Panay — "Panay" most commonly applies to the island in the Western Visayas so it should be used there, as in the case of Philippine. —23prootie 06:50, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Incomplete (and that dablink is really long). Dekimasu よ! 09:48, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Panay (disambiguation) should be used on the disambiguation page instead of the name "Panay" only to specify it is a disambiguation page and the dablink can be shorthened since some of those links are found in the article.23prootie 20:05, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * There is no need for a disambiguation page to have a title ending in " (disambiguation)". That is only necessary when the page without that ending is already occupied by another article. --Stemonitis 20:56, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but why should the disambiguation page be the one to use the name "Panay" instead of the island, when most of the articles there have names derived from the island's name. Also Panay is a major island in the Philippines, and therefore do not use the word "island" in their names unless there is an associated city, town or province (i.e. Luzon, Mindanao, Boracay, Corregidor, Cebu (island), Samar (island))--23prootie 07:49, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Agree with 23prootie that the current Panay dab page should be moved to Panay (disambiguation) while the article Panay Island should occupy the unqualified title. --Polaron | Talk 01:23, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

After skimming over all the links currently at Panay, I'd tend to agree now (although I objected at Talk:Mactan): all the toponyms are on or around the island, and USS Panay is named after the island, and Panay incident is named after one of those ships. The island seems to be the first and primary use. Duja ► 14:24, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Lead/Lede
The lead seems to be seriously unbalanced, with far too much detailed history that should be elsewhere in the article.SovalValtos (talk) 17:15, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

Panay Island Caves
User:Archaeology2There is a large section with just one reference to a book (Coutts). Cits are needed. Is there a chance of copyright violation of the book? The caves section also seems out of proportion to that of the other sections. Might it be better as a stand alone article? SovalValtos (talk) 17:23, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

Madja-as and Srivijaya connections
I removed most of the mentions of the [Madja-as] and [Srivijaya] as these statements are considered original research WP:OR and dubious claims so that the article can better adhere better to a neutral point of view WP:NPOV.

Killswitch (film)

Killswitch is a documentary film about the battle for control over the Internet. The movie is a collaboration between director Ali Akbarzadeh, producer Jeffrey Horn, writer Christopher Dollar and Akorn Entertainment. It premiered at the Woodstock Film Festival in October 2014, where it won the James K. Lyons Award for Best Editing of a feature documentary and then made its international debut, playing alongside Citizenfour at the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam in November 2014. In 2015, it screened on Capitol Hill, as well as film festivals on four continents (Europe, Asia, Australia, and North America). Theatrical release was on March 1, 2015. Kathy Gill of GeekWire writes that "Killswitch is much more than a dry recitation of technical history. Director Ali Akbarzadeh, producer Jeff Horn, and writer Christopher Dollar created a human centered story. A large part of that connection comes from Lessig and his relationship with Swartz."

Synopsis
Lawrence Lessig, Tim Wu, and Peter Ludlow frame the story of two young hackers, Aaron Swartz and Edward Snowden. Swartz and Snowden both release information and take on the system, putting them directly in the cross-hairs of some of the most powerful interests in the world. Swartz, Lessig's protégé, downloads many academic journal articles from JSTOR, for which he is arrested. Swartz also successfully leads the charge in defeating the Stop Online Piracy Act, but he commits suicide while facing disproportionate prosecution under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. Shortly after this, Snowden observes systemic mass surveillance of the public by the National Security Agency, and decides to leak the information. He is forced to flee the country and ponder his next move.

Capitol Hill screening
In February 2015, Killswitch was invited to screen at the Capitol Visitor's Center in Washington DC by Congressman Alan Grayson. The event was held on the eve of the Federal Communications Commission's decision to reclassify Internet service providers under Title II of the Communications Act of 1934. Congressman Grayson, Harvard Professor Lawrence Lessig, and Free Press CEO Craig Aaron paid homage to Aaron Swartz (who committed suicide in January 2013 while under prosecution for various computer crimes) and spoke about the importance of protecting the free and open Internet.

Reception

 * U.S. Representative Alan Grayson: "One of the most honest accounts of the battle to control the Internet – and access to information itself."
 * Mic: "One of the best documentaries to watch in 2017. Highlights aspects of the web few take time to think about, and serves as a thought-provoking film on the future of information."
 * Metro Silicon Valley: "Some of the most lapidary use of found footage this side of The Atomic Café."
 * Orange County Register: "Anyone who values unfettered access to online information is apt to be captivated by Killswitch, a gripping and fast-paced documentary."
 * GeekWire: "Killswitch weaves together ancient and recent history in a way that makes heady issues like network neutrality and SOPA connect with non-technical people."

Film festival premieres

 * International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam
 * Woodstock Film Festival
 * Cinequest Film Festival
 * Gothenburg Film Festival
 * ZagrebDox
 * Newport Beach Film Festival

Blast of Tempest

Blast of Tempest (絶園のテンペスト) is a Japanese manga series written by Kyō Shirodaira and Arihide Sano, and illustrated by Ren Saizaki. It was serialized in Square Enix's Monthly Shōnen Gangan from July 2009 to March 2013, with its chapters collected in ten volumes. A 24-episode anime television series adaptation by Bones aired from October 2012 to March 2013. The anime series was licensed by Aniplex of America in North America, by Madman Entertainment in Australia and by Muse Communication in Southeast Asia.

Plot
The story revolves around Mahiro Fuwa, a teenage high school student whose younger step-sister Aika (who was also the longtime girlfriend of his childhood friend Yoshino Takigawa) was mysteriously murdered along with their parents one year before. Mahiro is contacted by Hakaze Kusaribe, the leader of the Kusaribe clan who was left stranded on an unknown deserted island by her followers, and agrees to help Hakaze in exchange for her help to find out the culprit responsible for the tragic death of his family. Upon learning of his friend's intentions, Yoshino joins him on his quest to stand up against the rest of the Kusaribe clan who intends to awaken the "Tree of Exodus" whose power can bring ruin to the entire world.

Several dialogues and plot elements in Zetsuen no Tempest pay homage to two works of William Shakespeare, Hamlet and The Tempest, which are two stories about retribution, albeit with completely opposing outcomes.

Main characters

 * Yoshino Takigawa (滝川 吉野)
 * The main viewpoint character of the series. Yoshino is Mahiro's childhood best friend who joins his quest to stop the Tree of Exodus in exchange for the means to avenge for the death of his family. Just like Mahiro, Yoshino cannot overcome Aika's death as he was her boyfriend, a fact he always kept a secret from Mahiro by her request. Yoshino has a more calm and collected character in contrast to Mahiro's reckless behavior, resorting to manipulation and deceit when needed. At the end of the series, he finally accepted Aika's death and formalized his relationship with Hakaze as a means to move on and honor Aika's last wish.
 * Yoshino's setup and behavior includes allusions to Horatio from Hamlet, who is the eponymous protagonist's closest friend and confidant. It also includes allusions to Ariel from The Tempest, who works behind the scenes and serves as the magician's primary means of communication and obtaining information.

It also includes allusions to Ariel from The Tempest, who works behind the scenes and serves as the magician's primary means of communication and obtaining information.

 * Mahiro Fuwa (不破 真広)
 * A typical high school student and the son of a wealthy entrepreneur, Mahiro is Aika's step-brother and Yoshino's best friend since elementary school. Mahiro's family—consisting of his father, mother, and Aika—were all found dead one year before the beginning of the series. In exchange for help with finding the culprit responsible for killing Aika, Mahiro agrees with Hakaze's plan to stop the resurrection of the Tree of Exodus with Yoshino's help. With little care for the destiny of the world, Mahiro's only desire is to locate and kill the murderer of his family, especially for Aika's sake. Though he is not related to Aika by blood, Mahiro claims he never had any romantic feelings for her, even if his actions imply otherwise.
 * Mahiro's setup and behavior includes allusions to Prince Hamlet, as just like the main character from Shakespeare's tragedy Hamlet, he is prone to abandon all morals and reason for the sake of exacting his revenge. It also includes allusions to Laertes, the brother of Hamlet's beloved Ophelia who also seeks revenge for the deaths of his father and sister.

 * Aika Fuwa (不破 愛花)
 * Killed one year before, along with her parents, Aika was Mahiro's stepsister and Yoshino's girlfriend who also attended high school at the time of her death. Despite already being dead, both of them are still far from overcoming her loss, with Mahiro determined to avenge her at all costs and Yoshino still claiming he has a lover. Aika is a crucial character along with the main protagonists, it is hinted that she is the one who is the key to many unanswered mysteries surrounding them. It is revealed when Hakaze time travels to a time prior to Aika's death that she was actually the "Magician of Exodus", who, after learning of the future described by Hakaze, decided to take her parents' and her own life to save the world having easily restrained Hakaze who tried to stop her. Her powers were transferred to Megumu Hanemura upon her death.
 * Aika's character is based on Sycorax, also from The Tempest, which is a deceased character who appears in flashbacks and defines several of the relationships in the play, and Ophelia from Hamlet whose brother gets frenzied by his drive for revenge after her death.

 * Hakaze Kusaribe (鎖部 葉風)
 * The leader of the Kusaribe Clan also known as the "Magician of Genesis" with the task of protecting the "Tree of Genesis" which is the source of the magic used by her clan. Betrayed by her aide Samon, who intends to halt the Tree of Genesis' advent by having the Tree of Exodus resurrected first, she is left stranded in a barrel by her former comrades which was washed ashore of a desert island. She uses the last remains of her magic to create a pair of wooden dolls with one of them thrown inside a bottle to the sea and the other in her possession. The doll is found by Mahiro, and she uses it to communicate with him, giving him and Yoshino instructions to confront the Kusaribe Clan and prevent the return of the Tree of Exodus. Hakaze also develops romantic feelings for Yoshino, but refrains from confessing to him upon his claim that he already has a girlfriend, unaware that said girl is the late Aika. At the end of the series, she enters into a relationship with Yoshino.
 * Hakaze's setup and behavior includes allusions to Prospero, the main character from Shakespeare's play The Tempest, who is a duke with magical power. His brother betrays him and he escapes with his daughter to an island. On this island he makes plans to gain his dukedom back from his brother.

Kusaribe clan

 * Samon Kusaribe (鎖部 左門)
 * Hakaze's former aide who usurped her position as the leader of the Kusaribe clan with the intention of awakening the Tree of Exodus to prevent the advent of the Tree of Genesis. Later it is revealed that he did so because he knows that upon fully awakening, the Tree of Genesis will recreate the world, fearing that by doing so, all beings previously created (including mankind) may be destroyed.

 * Natsumura Kusaribe (鎖部 夏村)

 * Samon's subordinate and mage of the Kusaribe clan. He is very smart and believes in the reason of the world. He suspected Yoshino as the real "Magician of Exodus" rather than Hanemura due to his suspicious participation in certain events.

Other characters

 * Megumu Hanemura (羽村 めぐむ)
 * The real current "Magician of Exodus". His powers started manifesting by the time of Aika's death when he was chosen by the Tree of Exodus to replace her and got stronger when the Kusaribe Clan tried to revive it. Unlike the members of the Kusaribe Clan, who are capable only of healing and defensive magic, Megumu's magic is solely focused on destruction and does not need any offerings to be activated. He first appears before Yoshino and Hakaze while looking for the Tree of Exodus, and despite Hanemura is labeled as the greatest threat to her, and was suspicious of being the one who killed Aika, Hakaze decides to train him to ensure that he has the strength to stop the Tree of Genesis should her fears that all mankind will be destroyed when it fully awakens are confirmed. Megumu claims he had a girlfriend, whom he claims is his alibi for the time of Aika's death, but was dumped by her recently. He is unsure if he should save the world for his girlfriend because it might seem uncool. Frauline tracks down his former girlfriend's number and address for him. As the Magician of Exodus, he eventually defeats the Tree of Genesis after the Tree of Exodus was revived.

 * A Japanese agent working under Takumi to investigate Mahiro and his connection with Hakaze. At first, she finds Yoshino and questions him about Mahiro's whereabouts, but then later makes a deal with him concerning his friend. She is the first person to whom Yoshino confesses that Aika was his girlfriend.

 * Junichirou Hoshimura (星村 潤一郎)
 * A member of the Kusaribe clan that left to avoid conflict because he dislikes fighting. As the only one Hakaze can really trust, she left him a powerful talisman created from a MP5 sub-machine gun with the power to stop the Tree of Exodus. Currently Junichirou is attending college and true to his pacifist nature; while he is unable to use any magic, he has the ability to deflect attacks of Kusaribe magic, dropping them into the ground should they try to hit him, in a similar fashion to a Judo throw. It is said that not even Hakaze can break through his defenses, leaving his enemies with no options but to give up or to collapse by exhaustion. He is also very perceptive, quickly realizing when Hakaze falls in love with Yoshino.
 * He has an extreme fetish for women's breasts, which comes up in conversation against the dramatic mood usually set in the anime.

 * Takumi Hayakawa (早河 巧)
 * A high-ranking government official who possesses knowledge about magic due to his ancestor's ties with the Kusaribe Clan. Appointed to deal with the matter of the Tree of Exodus, he falls from grace after all the deaths caused by the Tree of Genesis and starts working together with Samon to look for ways to learn more about the truth behind both trees and their respective magicians including the real threat they can pose to mankind. Due to the government's dire need of knowledge about magic in order to deal with the Tree of Genesis, he was shortly promoted back to his former position.

Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/Retention and return team

This page is dedicated to a few goals:
 * 1) To come up with ideas as to how to keep editors who are at risk of leaving the project, or to try to persuade those who have left the project to return, and
 * 2) To provide a location where information about existing editors who are talking about leaving the project can be placed. In some cases, their reasons will be very valid ones, and in those cases we would not and should not try to keep them from doing so. But there are several cases where that will not be the case. In those instances, we can try to assess the situation which is making them think of leaving, and, if possible, find some way to deal with it productively in a way which retains the editors.
 * 3) Any other initiatives that the members think of that they believe would assist in retaining existing members and in bringing former contributors back. John Carter (talk) 23:03, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Emergency calls
Please list here any editors who have made recent statements regarding possibly leaving the project, if possible with a link to exactly where they have expressed the intention to leave. one of those watching this page will try to contact that editor as soon as possible to identify the situation and, if possible, help resolve it in a way that is in the best interests of all those involved.

 * User:Ohconfucius
 * Note: I have been in contact with this editor, and hope to receive a response from him soon. John Carter (talk) 22:50, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

 * User:Yngvadottir, User talk:Yngvadottir
 * This editor is a friendly, helpful, multilingual Ph.D. who has made many edits on WP. She has decided to leave after coming under attack just in the last few weeks. Is there anything you can do to persuade her to return? CorinneSD (talk) 22:52, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Policy and guideline proposals
Can anyone think of any changes to existing policies or guidelines which they believe would help keep existing editors and maybe bring back a few inactive editors. If yes, please feel free to discuss them here.

Area code 731 is a telephone area code in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for the western part of the U.S. state of Tennessee.

The numbering plan area (NPA) includes the cities of Jackson, Tiptonville, Savannah, Union City, Dyersburg, Lexington, Ripley, Martin, Brownsville, Paris, and Bolivar.

Area code 731 was created in September 2001 in a split from area code 901, which was the original area code created for the entire state in 1947. NPA 901 has since been restricted for use in the greater Memphis metropolitan area only.

Prior to October 2021, area code 731 had telephone numbers assigned for the central office code 988. In 2020, 988 was designated nationwide as a dialing code for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, which created a conflict for exchanges that still permitted seven-digit dialing. This area code was therefore scheduled to transition to ten-digit dialing by October 24, 2021.

Neurobiological Effects of Trauma include the nervous system, genetic, metabolic, or other biological changes or reorganization of cells as a result of psychological trauma exposure. These effects can be seen as the body’s physiological responses to potentially traumatic events. Studies suggest that various types of trauma, such as childhood abuse, sexual abuse, and domestic violence, precipitate chronic neurological dysregulation, resulting in cognitive and behavioral impairments (Sherin & Nemerrof, 2011).

1 Overview of Neurobiological Responses to Stress The body is designed to adapt to physiological and environmental changes (Hoffmann & Sgrò, 2011). Biological/physiological Stress is understood as the body’s response to said changes. The amygdala, the brain’s emotional processing center, processes information about a potentially stressful or dangerous event and transfers it to the hypothalamus (Davis, 1992). The Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis is responsible for the body’s reaction to stress (Tsigos & Chrousos, 2002). The hypothalamus releases adrenaline to prepare the body for fight or flight, leading to the activation of the sympathetic nervous system, which produces an increase in heart rate, oxygen supply, blood flow, and muscle tension (McCorry, 2007). Cortisol, a steroid hormone, is released, expelling glucose into the bloodstream, lowering blood sugar, curbing appetite, and slowing metabolism (Sapolsky, Romero & Munck, 2000). Cortisol also suppresses the immune system (Segerstrom & Miller, 2004) and can interfere with memory encoding (Newcomer, Selke, Melson, Hershey, Craft, Richards & Alderson, 1999), especially when stress is chronic or prolonged.

2 Stress and Psychological Trauma Stress is generally defined as a feeling reflecting lack of a person’s resources to address a certain situations (McEwen, 2006). Life threatening, or acute, stressor, such as in violent situations, are likely to result in long-term chronic stress (McEwen) or psychological trauma (Van der Kolk, 2003). There are two essential elements in the establishment of profound threat: (1) a stressor and (2) the perception of threat (Sherin & Nemerrof, 2011). Psychological trauma is idiosyncratic in nature, and hence could be impacted by extraneous factors such as culture (Wilson, 2007) and age, making children a vulnerable population (Van der Kolk, 2003). When psychological trauma is severe and symptoms impact a person’s daily functioning, it can lead to a diagnosable psychological disorder, including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) and Dissociative Identity Disorder, as defined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (2013). Potential manifestations of psychological trauma include irritability, dissociation, social withdrawal, avoidance of trauma-related stimuli, and sleep disturbance (DSM-V, 2013). Neurologically, these psychological diagnoses are likely to be associated with neurological changes in several brain regions including prefrontal cortex, anterior cyngulate cortex (ACC), hippocampus, and limbic system (Zhang et al., 2006). PTSD often co-occurs with Traumatic Brain Injury (Stein & McAllister, 2009), with overlapping effects in the frontal gyrus (Simmons & Matthews, 2012).

3 Childhood Trauma According to the National Child Traumatic Stress Network, early childhood trauma refers to experiencing traumatic event, such as sexual, physical or emotional abuse or neglect between infancy and the age of 6 years. A survey by the National Survey of Children’s Health conducted in 2011/12, suggests that nearly 35,000,000 children ages 0-17 in the U.S. experience one or more types of childhood trauma (Children are a particularly vulnerable population to develop psychological trauma because their central nervous system still develops when going through the traumatic event (Van der-Kolk, 2003). Prominent neurological changes that occur due to child trauma include physiological hyperarousal and dissociation, which are neurologically encoded by a child’s developing brain, significantly increasing the likelihood of neuropsychiatric manifestation more likely (Perry, Pollard, Blakley, Baker & Vigilante, 1995). Moreover, research suggests that both physical and emotional chronic abuse of a child have long-lasting neurobiological effects, reflected in multiple symptoms such as brain-wave abnormalities, left-hemisphere developmental problems such as speech, problems with hippocampus which impact memory, diminished right-left integration and more (Teicher, 2002).

4 Adulthood Trauma Military veterans are also considered a vulnerable population to developing trauma-related disorders due to the nature of the service, which often includes life threatening and violent situations. PTSD is among the most prevalent disorders among U.S. military and and veteran populations. Research suggests that 68.2% U.S. of military personnel participating in Operations Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Enduring Freedom (OEF) have endorsed symptoms of PTSD (Lew, et al., 2009). Research also suggest that approximately one in three veterans is likely to endorse PTSD symptoms in their lifetime (Mota, et al. 2016). Research indicate that stress, especially chronic stress as a result of trauma can result in degeneration of neurons in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex (McEwen, 2006), hence damaging learning and memory (Bremner, 1999) as well as executive functions (McEwens, 2006). Specifically, Bremner’s study (1999) examined Vietnam Veterans diagnosed with PTSD and found, via Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), that this population (as well as victims of childhood abuse) had reduced hippocampal volume in comparison to control group. Studies also show that military personnel diagnosed with PTSD have “inadequate frontal inhibition of the amygdala” which ultimately impacts an individual’s fear response (Vasterling, Verfaellie & Sullivan, 2009). Another area of the brain found to be altered among adults as a result of psychological trauma is the prefrontal cortex (McEwen, 2006). The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is communicating with the amygdala via white matter connections (Koenigs & Grafman, 2009), and if damaged due to psychological trauma can lead to problems in selective attention, judgment and decision-making.

5 Affect Dysregulation Affect regulation is a function of biological and psychosocial domains (Ford, 2017). Affect regulation involves the control of which emotions are felt, experienced, and expressed in what ways, contexts, times, and ranges (Dvir, Ford, Hill, & Frzier, 2014). With standard (physiological) maturation, components of the limbic system, such as the HPA (Dvir, Ford, Hill, & Frzier, 2014) and frontal lobe (Tarullo, Obradovic, & Gunnar, 2009), change and develop to promote self-control. Those exposed to trauma are particularly at risk of displaying emotional regulation problems. An inability to modulate, manage, or appropriately express emotions is referred to as emotional dysregulation (Dvir, Ford, Hill, & Frzier, 2014). Children who endure trauma or adversity in their early years are at increased risk of stress reactivity and emotional regulation (D’Andrea, Ford, Stolbach, Spinazzola, & van der Kolk, 2012). Emotional dysregulation is associated with several psychological disorders including substance use, depression, borderline personality disorder, eating disorders and anxiety (Berkin & Wupperman, 2012; Aldao, Nolen-Hoeksema, & Schweizer, 2010). Difficulty regulating emotions can create dilemmas developmentally, socially, and legally. Emotional dysregulation is a risk factor for self-injurious behaviors (Adrian, Zeman, J., Erdley, Lisa, & Sim, 2011) and aggression (Roberton, Daffern, & Bucks, 2012).

6 Therapies and Treatments Several evidence-based therapies have been developed to directly address the neurobiological effects of trauma. A. Psychotherapy Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a popular mental health treatment that has been used to treat psychological disorders including depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Even though CBT’s main focus lies in an individual’s thoughts, feelings, and cognitive processes, there is evidence that this treatment produces neurological modifications (Paquette, et al. 2003). Specifically, in the treatment of PTSD, CBT treatment is often conducted in the form of stimulus confrontation or cognitive restructuring (Seidler & Wagner, 2006). Studies suggest that CBT treatment of PTSD was associated with changes in the Anterior Cingulate Cortex, including the amygdala (Felmingham et al., 2007). Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is also considered a prevalent psychotherapy treatment method specifically designated for PTSD (Seidler & Wagner, 2006). As part of EMDR treatment the patient is instructed to focus on the thoughts and emotions related to the distressing event, once such contact is made the therapist asks the patient to follow therapist’s finger moving sideways towards and away from patient’s face (Seidler & Wagner, 2006). The bilateral stimulation is at the heart of EMDR. A systematic review conducted by Seidler & Wagner (2006) suggests that both CBT and EMDR are similarly effective in the treatment of PTSD.

B. Psychopharmacology Several psychotropic medications are effective in alleviating PTSD symptoms (Albucher & Liberzon, 2002). These medications typically include antidepressants, such as tricyclic antidepressants, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). In PTSD, SSRIs increase orbitofrontal and medial prefrontal activity (Fernandez et al., 2001; Seedat et al., 2004). Effectiveness of psychopharmacology treatment, specifically mood-enhancing medication, for PTSD supports the understanding that PTSD is more than an exaggerated fear response and involves emotional regulation (Etkin & Wager, 2007).

C. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive stimulation technique in which parts of the brain are activated by use of magnetic waves. The stimulation creates changes in nerve cell activity by way of location, intensity, and frequency of pulses. Typically, this treatment is administered to “treatment and drug resistant” patients since it addresses neurobiological mechanisms exclusively. Use of TMS to treat or in tandem with other treatment has shown to improve of clinical outcomes of PTSD (Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technology in Health, 2015). The mechanisms by which clinical outcomes improve are largely unknown.

Article Evaluation: “Violent Crime” Even though the article is brief, the information that has been included is relevant to the topic of violent crime. The article does a good job of being benign - it refrains from taking a stance and simply reports the facts. The definition and examples of violent crime included in the article were both extensive and diverse. The article read mostly like a Center for Disease Control (CDC) or federal report. Most of the sources cited are federal or international government agency reports. The talk page is relatively quiet – there are not many posts and most are suggestions on who to expand the article or change the aesthetics. However, there are two messages from Wikipedia mentioning that the article falls within two scopes (Wiki	Project Crime and WikiProject Law), which are dedicated to improving coverage of this and similar topics. It is comforting to see Wikipedia’s acknowledgment that the article is relatively lacking on information and depth. On the quality scale, the article is rated as “start-class”, which makes sense considering the brief information provided. The article could have gone into further depth about all aspects of violent crime, aside from the provided definition and prevalence rates. Other aspects that should be added include policies and consequences (e.g. prison, trauma, transgenerational transmission, etc.) of violent crime, impact on psychological or community well being indexes, and prevalence rates by demographics.

Spy (ship)

Several vessels have been named Spy:

 * After the Royal Navy sold HMS Spy (1756) in 1773, between 1773 and 1780 she became the transport Spy.
 * Aggie was launched in Liverpool in 1777. She traded locally until 1781 when her owners renamed her Spy and placed her in the slave trade. The French Navy captured her in 1782 in the West Indies as she was arriving to deliver her cargo of enslaved people.
 * Spy was built in France in 1780, almost surely under another name, and taken in prize. The British East India Company (EIC) purchased her in 1781 and used her for almost two years as a fast packet vessel and cruiser based in St Helena. It then sold her and she became a London-based slave ship, making two voyages carrying enslaved people in the triangular trade, in the Middle Passage from West Africa to the West Indies. next, she became a whaler, making seven whaling voyages between 1786 and 1795. She was probably wrecked in August 1795 on a voyage as a government transport.
 * Robert was a 16-gun French privateer corvette launched at Nantes. The British captured her in 1793 and named her HMS Espion. The French recaptured her in 1794 and took her into service as Espion. The British recaptured her in 1795, but there being another Espion in service by then, the British renamed their capture HMS Spy. She served under that name until the Navy sold her in 1801. Spy then became a slave ship, a merchantman to South America, and privateer again. The French captured her in mid-1805 and sent her into Guadeloupe.

Games in Development/Liberal Diplomacy/Essentials

The next step! So, it's clear what the three concepts are that I want to add. What has to be decided now is how I'm going to make the first prototype of the game. The Spiral Method demands numerous prototypes and repeated testing, so I need to decide on what the kernel of this game is and test that first. Luckily, doing a variant on such a well-established (and venerable) game, the basic rules are firmly established and have been playtested over decades. However, given the changes I want to make, I am going to have to decide whether I want to take all of the game or just some of it for the basis of this variant.

Movement: So far as I am concerned, the elegant movement and orders system of Diplomacy is what sets it apart from other strategy games. These simple instructions should form the solid core of my bare essentials. So, I want to include the basic orders Move, Stand, Support, and Convoy in this first prototype. For those unfamiliar with these rules, they are available from the owners here.

Orders: Diplomacy's system of giving orders on slips of paper and resolving movement simultaneously is essential to the operation of this game.

Turns: The seasons of Spring and Fall give a great deal of tension to the game, as waiting for one's builds is something that gets players chomping at the bit for Fall to come around. Spring and Fall seasons are a good part of the game to maintain, and the year can start at 1890.

Builds: Where I may begin to deviate from the game is that - though I believe in building being somehow connected to centres - I don't know how to resolve my "stronger centres" problem. I want to keep builds in the Fall season, but I realize that some players may have more than one build per centre in that turn, and that may create problems.

So, where does that leave us?

Well, we can briefly sum up the kernel of rules I want to port over from Diplomacy proper. They are:  Rules

Stuff!

Azerbaijan–OIC relations

In 1991, Azerbaijan joined the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and started to build relations with the organization. As a result, the ambassador of Azerbaijan to Saudi Arabia was given a mandate of permanent representative of Azerbaijan to the General Secretariat of the OIC in May 1994.

Cooperation
Former Azerbaijani President Heydar Aliyev met with the OIC Secretary General in Baku in 1994. Furthermore, Heydar Aliyev attended the 7th Summit of Heads of States and Governments of the OIC member countries in Casablanca and made a speech in that year.

In 2005, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev attended the 3rd Extraordinary Summit of the OIC in Mecca. In 2015, Aliyev met with the Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Iyad bin Amin Madani.

Baku hosted the 33rd OIC Foreign Ministers Conference on 19–21 June 2006. Mehriban Aliyeva, president of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation initiated the International Forum on "Expanding the Role of Women in Cross-Cultural Dialogue" in Baku on June 10–11, 2008.

The delegation led by Elmar Mammadyarov, the Azerbaijani Ministry of Foreign Affairs regularly participates at the OIC Foreign Ministers conferences.

On 22–23 November 2011, the Islamic Conference Youth Forum for Dialogue and Cooperation (ICYF-DC), Heydar Aliyev Foundation and Azerbaijani government organized the Founding Convention of the OIC Countries Young Entrepreneurs Network in Baku. ICYEN is a collaborative initiative to create a platform for young Muslim entrepreneurs.

In 2017, the 4th Islamic Solidarity Games were held in Azerbaijan. An official opening ceremony was organized in Baku on May 12, 2017.

Azerbaijan has achieved cooperation with other bodies of the OIC. Mehriban Aliyeva's activities contributed to the development of ties between Azerbaijan and the OIC. On 26 November 2006, Abdulaziz Othman al-Twaijri, Director General of ISESCO made Aliyeva a goodwill ambassador of ISESCO for her efforts to bring civilizations closer to each other. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoghlu made her a special envoy of the OIC on humanitarian affairs for her activities in the humanitarian field while attending the International Forum on "Expanding the Role of Women in Cross-Cultural Dialogue" which was held in Baku on 10–11 June 2008.

On 3 May 2017, a delegation led by Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Yousef Al-Othaimeen met with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. The meeting involved the discussions over the solidarity and cooperation between Muslim countries, Azerbaijan's membership to the OIC and tourism potentials.

Azerbaijan was represented by the Minister of Foreign Affairs at two summits of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, held on November 12–13, 2000 in Doha and on 16–17 November 2003 in Putrajaya, Malaysia. The position of Azerbaijan was defended, and documents were adopted, which required the withdrawal of Armenian troops from the occupied Azerbaijani territories, respect for the territorial integrity of the country, as well as compliance with four UN resolutions at that summits.

The founding meeting of the Youth forum of the Organization of the Islamic Conference was held in 2004 in Azerbaijan.

Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan became a discussion topic since Azerbaijan had been admitted to the membership of the OIC. The OIC adopted a number of resolutions condemning Armenia's occupation of Azerbaijani territories:

 * Final Communique of the 7th Session of The Islamic Summit Conference Casablanca, Morocco (13-15 December 1994).
 * Final Communique of the 8th Session of The Islamic Summit Conference Tehran, Iran (9-11 December 1997)
 * Final Communique of the 9th Session of The Islamic Summit Conference Doha, Qatar (12-13 November 2000)
 * Resolution no. 25/9-c (is) on the destruction and desecration of Islamic historical and cultural relics and shrines in the occupied Azeri territories resulting from the republic of Armenia's aggression against the Republic of Azerbaijan
 * Resolution No.21/9-P(IS) on the aggression of the Republic of Armenia against the Republic of Azerbaijan

Documents and resolutions on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict were approved at the OIC Foreign Ministers conferences, too. For instance, resolution No. 10/42-POL "On the Aggression of the Republic of Armenia against the Republic of Azerbaijan" adopted in the framework of the Forty Second Session of the Council of Foreign Ministers, held in Kuwait, State of Kuwait on 27–28 May 2015. The resolution strongly condemns Armenian aggression against Azerbaijan, considers the actions committed by the Armenian Armed Forces against the Azerbaijani civilians and other protected persons as crimes against humanity and calls the United Nations Security Council to recognize the existence of aggression against Azerbaijan.

The OIC Secretary General regularly commemorates the Khojaly Massacre of February 1992. In 2017, OIC Secretary-General Yousef al-Othaimeen called for the "immediate" and "unconditional" withdrawal of the Armenian Armed Forces from occupied Azerbaijani territories while marking the 25th anniversary of the 1992 Khojaly Genocide.

Battle of San Pedro
Created by Lajbi (talk). Self nom at 09:15, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
 * ... that mass defection of their Mexican auxiliaries led to the utmost defeat of the French Army at the Battle of San Pedro?

 * Reviewed: Order of the Falcon (Czechoslovakia)

 * Symbol possible vote.svg The article does not have inline citations (except in the infobox and the last paragraph). While defection is mentioned in the article, the hook fact is not stated there. (Length, creation date and QPQ are OK.) htonl (talk) 19:28, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes the whole article (except for the data in the infobox) is based on that three page description of that one source as it is the only detailed account of the battle. That book is out of question reliable. Since the armies were equal at the start of the battle, "The numbers then were against the French..." (statement taken from source) after the mass defection refers to that it had significantly led to the defeat.  Lajbi  Holla @ me  •  CP  19:38, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
 * WP:DYKR suggests at least one inline citation per paragraph. If the whole article depends on that ref, perhaps you could place the appropriate ref tag at the end of the other paragraphs just to make it clear? (I don't doubt the reliability.) I see what you mean about "The numbers were agains..." but perhaps you could reword that sentence to make it clear that this was the turning point? - htonl (talk) 20:59, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Tried to fulfill your request. Please have a look at it.  Lajbi  Holla @ me  •  CP  22:49, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Looks good to me. AGF on the non-English sources. - htonl (talk) 00:54, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
