David B. Gracy II

David B. Gracy II (born 25 October 1941 – 26 September 2020) was an American archivist and archival educator. He developed the Southern Labor Archives, was a founding member of the Society of Georgia Archivists, and authored the first American manual on arrangement and description for the Society of American Archivists. He was an early leader in archival education and professional certification for archivists and has advocated for archivists to promote societal understanding of archives and in particular the archival profession throughout his career. He also contributed significantly to the preservation and celebration of Texas history.

Early life
David B. Gracy II was born on October 25, 1941, to David Caldwell and Alice Tillar (née Duggan) Gracy in Austin, Texas. Gracy's father was a graduate from the University of Texas at Austin who was a principal of the Gracy Title Company of Austin, while his mother was descended from the Littlefield family, the largest benefactor to the university during its early years. Littlefield House, built in 1893 for Gracy's ancestor George Washington Littlefield, a successful businessman in both banking and cattle trades, still stands on the campus of the University of Texas at Austin.

Education
Gracy attended the Sewanee Military Academy in Sewanee, Tennessee. He then attended the University of Texas at Austin receiving a Bachelor's degree in History in 1963. He followed that with a Master's degree in History from the University of Texas at Austin in 1966 and a Ph.D in History from Texas Tech University in 1971.

Career
David Gracy began his career as Archivist for the Southwest Collection at Texas Tech University from 1966 to 1971 before becoming Archivist of the Southern Labor Archives and University Archives at Georgia State University from 1971 to 1977. During his time in Georgia he employed a grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission to develop a media program on the importance of archives to the state's citizens, which would become a model for his later work with the Society of American Archivists.

Gracy became Director of the Texas State Archives in 1977 until 1986 when he was asked to create the archival and records enterprise concentration at the University of Texas at Austin School of Information. He remained as the Governor Bill Daniel Professor in Archival Enterprise at the School until 2011 when he assumed an emeritus position.

Gracy spent many years developing journal resources on archival science and information studies. He was founding editor of Georgia Archive (now Provenance ) from 1972 to 1976, which was the first professional archival journal published by a state or regional organization. The journal received an Award of Merit from the Society of American archivists in 1975. This was followed by a position on the editorial board from 1977 – 1978. The Society of Georgia Archivists named an award in his honour which recognizes a superior contribution to each issue of Provenance. Gracy was also on the editorial board of the journal of the Society of American Archivists, American Archivist, from 1976 to 1979.

Gracy was on the editorial board of the journal Libraries & Culture from 1985 to 2005, whereupon he became editor of the journal, renamed Libraries & the Cultural Record (now Information & Culture: A Journal of History), from 2005 to 2011. He then joined the Board of Advisory Editors.

Gracy was made a Distinguished Fellow of the Society of American Archivists in 1979, as well as a Fellow of the Society of Georgia Archivists in 2009, and received the ACA Distinguished Service Award from the Academy of Certified Archivists in 2011. He was also named a Fellow of the Texas State Historical Association in 1992. He was the first person awarded the recognition of distinguished alumnus, Department of History, Texas Tech University, in 1987. He received the San Jacinto Award for distinguished service to Texas history in 1993 as well as the Katherine Drake Hart history preservation award from the Austin History Center Association, in 2005.

Influence
Gracy was President of both the Society of American Archivists (1983–84) and the Academy of Certified Archivists (1999-2000). As President of the Society of American Archivists, he initiated the "Archives in Society" program, which focused on the value, relevance and significance of archives and archivists to all members of society. He created the Task Force on Archives and Society in 1983, which commissioned a social marketing study of the image of archives and archivists by resource allocators popularly known as the "Levy Report". In 1989 he joined with others to found the Academy of Certified Archivists, serving as Regent responsible for outreach to professional archivists. A Festschrift in honour of David Gracy was published discussing his influence on archives and archivists, particularly in the United States. In the introduction the editor noted that Gracy's career "evinced innumerable critical contributions to advancing the archives field in the United States."

Is there a difference between comics writers and cartoonists? (Especially considering that Lynn Johnston for example is on the cartoonists list). -- BoojiBoy, 23:21, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

Yes, a cartoonist is an artist and writer. A writer is just a writer.

 * Although there is a distinction, I think this makes it hard to have the various categories correctly populated. I think canadian cartoonists, comics writers and comics artists should all be merged. Pascal.Tesson 23:07, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

 * oppose There is a good distinction and it is one made in the rest of the related categories for other nationalities. If you wish to merge this then it would require broader discussion as part of the comics project. (Emperor 21:36, 13 June 2007 (UTC))

Almost Famous: A Historical Artifact
Almost Famous is a movie written and directed by Cameron Crowe. The movie was released in 2000. The story follows the life of a young teen in the 1970's named William who wants to be a journalist. He gets the opportunity to write an article for The Rolling Stone about an upcoming band named Stillwater. On his journey with the band,William meets many people including the infamous Band-Aids (or groupies) led by the sweet and mysterious Penny Lane. The story follows the rise and the fall of the band and the band-aids in the height of the new age of rock and roll in the 1970's.

Research Paper #1
My first research paper is evaluating how accurate the movie is when it portrays the relationships between bands and groupies. There are many resources written about this time from the viewpoint of groupies and rock bands. One of the most famous resources is Pamela Des Barres book [ Let's Spend the Night Together: Backstage Secrets of Rock Muses and Supergroupies] that chronicles her time and experiences as a groupie.

Wikipedia:Wiki Ed/University of Oklahoma/History of Science Since the 17th Century (Fall)

This course introduces students to the history of modern science, technology, and medicine, from (roughly) Newton to the present. The emphasis is on understanding the intersections between ideas and contexts, with the core course theme being that 'science and society each make each other, all the time.' The course is divided into four main units: the first covers 'science, enlightenment, and empire'; the second covers 'evolution and eugenics'; the third covers 'energy and efficiency'; and the fourth covers 'technoscience--bombs, genomics, and models,' with attention to climate modeling and epidemiological modeling (e.g. coronavirus). It is a survey course, but it is aimed at upper division undergraduates.

User:Jéské Couriano/Common -en-help questions and their answers

Why won't you review my article?
It's channel practise to not review article drafts on request. While we will assess sources, tone, etc. we will not actually review the draft upon request. Individual helpers who are active reviewers may do so on their own volition, but not at the request of a helpee.

Why don’t you accept IMDb as a source? They vet their material and everything!
Regardless of its vetting processes, the Internet Movie Database is still a wiki. Wikis are by default unusable as sources because they're user-generated content, and IMDb's vetting isn’t enough to stop hoaxes or rumours from being accepted as fact. In addition, consensus at WP:Reliable sources/Noticeboard has repeatedly affirmed IMDb’s unsuitability as a source.

Why don't you accept citations to Wikipedia?
This is circular referencing and isn't acceptable in any serious resource. This also applies to Wikipedia mirrors as their information is copied from Wikipedia. Even if it weren't a circular reference, Wikipedia is a wiki, which fails the third criterion below.

What exactly is a "reliable source"?
A reliable source is a source that (1) discusses the subject in some depth, (2) has no direct connexion to the subject or surrogates of the subject, and (3) has an editor-in-chief or equivalent position that oversees fact-checking on articles it publishes and is able and willing to issue retractions as needed. Failing any of those criteria means that the source generally is not reliable.

I don't understand....
Here is a list of commonly-invoked bad sources, and why we don't use them.
 * Press releases, advertorials, and black-hat SEO: Written or commissioned by the subject or their surrogates.
 * IMDb: Wiki. See above.
 * Wikipedia: Wiki and a circular reference. See above.
 * Subject's own website: Written or commissioned by the subject or their surrogates.
 * Interviews with the subject or its principals: Written or commissioned by the subject or their surrogates. Where the interview is published is irrelevant; an interview published in a newspaper of record is as useless as an interview by Borat. At best these sources can be used to verify what a subject says, but they cannot be used for notability.
 * Gossip magazines and other scandal rags: Ineffectual editor-in-chief, thus poor or no fact-checking or retractions. Citing unverified rumours violates our biographical policies anyhow.
 * Routine business news (i.e. merger/acquisitions/real estate/funding announcements): News articles like these never count towards a business' notability simply because they are routine; every business is going to be reported on in this manner in some way.
 * Google or website tag search results: Not in-depth. Search results are good for finding articles, but citing them is useless because they tend to pull up unusable sources as readily as they do usable ones.
 * Trivial or passing mentions (name-drops and sound bites): Not in-depth. A source should explain more about the subject than their name, occupation, and a one-liner.
 * Random Wordpress/Blogger/Blogspot blogs: Little to no fact-checking. Blogs can be cited if the subject is an acknowledged expert and the topic is in their field of expertise.
 * Random online videos: Use of online videos as a source are only allowed if the video(s) were created by a news agency and uploaded by them to their own channel on that service. Videos uploaded by others may be copyright infringements (which we cannot link to under any circumstance) or otherwise unsuitable to cite (such as works of fiction or music videos).
 * Profile sites (Business profiles/who's-whos): Not in-depth and possibly written or commissioned by the subject or their surrogates.
 * Social media: Written or commissioned by the subject or their surrogates. We avoid linking to social media if at all possible, and whenever we do cite it, it's in the same context as interviews.
 * Scans of newspaper clippings: Copyright infringement. We do accept offline sources as long as enough bibliographical information is provided to look the source up in a library or archive.
 * Online storefronts (e.g. Amazon): Written/commissioned by the subject or surrogates (product descriptions) or lack of fact-checking (user reviews). We shouldn't link to these in the first place anyway.
 * Streaming websites/services, particularly as regards music: Either a copyright infringement or uploaded/commissioned by the subject. The subject's own music doesn't help for notability anyway; we would need reviews of that music.

Why're you deleting the stuff I borrowed from my website? I wrote it!
Per Berne, all-rights-reserved full copyright is automatic upon publishing unless an alternative copyright licence is explicitly specified at the time the content is published. As a result, even if you wrote that material, it is still a copyright violation because Wikipedia's licences (CC-By-SA 3.0 and GFDL) are fundamentally incompatible with standard copyright.

Why isn’t my draft on a person being accepted? I have sources!
You don’t have enough sources. Every claim about a living person an article makes that could potentially be challenged for literally any reason must be cited to a strong third-party source that corroborates it or (if no such sources exist) removed. (For information as to why this is a requirement, read Wikipedia Seigenthaler biography incident, which is the reason our biographical policy was created.)

Why won't you help me move my page out of draft?
We will not help users bypass the draft review process, especially if their sole apparent motivation is a payday. Most of the time, those who ask this have an article that would be deleted or draftified on discovery anyway for being unsuitable.

Why won't you assess my non-English source?
When it comes to sources that are not in English, we generally have to rely on automated translation (such as Google Translate), and Google Translate is known to have issues translating languages that are not Germanic, Semitic, Slavic, or Roman in nature. East (Japanese, Chinese, Korean) and South (Indic and Dravidian) Asian languages normally return nonsensical or unintelligible word salad when subjected to automated translation.

Why won't you accept a straight translation from (language code).wp?
The other Wikipedia projects all have their own communities, which are responsible for setting policies on the local level with regards to sourcing, notability, etc. Because of this, what works on, say, ar.wp will not necessarily work for zh.wp, and vice versa, and policies on both differ from en.wp. The only policy that is consistent across all Wikipediae is Neutral point of view, which is a de facto Foundation-level policy that can't be overridden at the local level.

Why doesn’t (foo)’s article say (bar)?
Wikipedia, as an encyclopaedia, requires third-party reliable sources to back up its claims. If a given claim is at odds with the sources, is based on an alternative interpretation of the sources, or is sourced to online rumour mills and social media, then we can’t include it. This is doubly so for articles about living and recently-dead people.

Why is (foo) in namespace when I have to go through a drafting process?
There’s a few possible reasons, which aren’t generally mutually exclusive.
 * 1) The article was originally created directly in mainspace, generally before drafting was made a requirement for new users.
 * 2) The article has third-party reliable sources that are properly cited in the article.
 * 3) One of the 500+ active administrators responsible for the Special:Statistics articles on the English-language Wikipedia missed it, and you pointing it out now allows us to correct the situation, whether it be finding better sources or deleting it.

Why can’t I edit about American politics/Eastern Europe/alternative medicine/etc.?
American politics, Eastern Europe , alternative medicine , and a host of other broad topic areas are under discretionary sanctions (or the closely related general sanctions). Articles under a general or discretionary sanctions regime are under heightened scrutiny by administrators due to extreme and intractible behaviour by users in those topic areas. Discretionary sanctions are only issued as a result of an Arbitration case while general sanctions require a community discussion and consensus. For a full list of topics under discretionary or general sanctions, see WP:General sanctions.

Why was my company’s account blocked?
Our username policy forbids usernames which imply shared or “official” use, in part because of issues of attribution as required by Wikipedia’s content licences. Employees and interns are also required to disclose their employer and what edits they will be making on their behalf as part of the terms of use for Wikipedia and its sister websites. Not disclosing is not just grounds for a block, but we are under no obligation to help users who flagrantly disregard the Terms of Use.

How do I disclose a conflict of interest?
You disclose a conflict of interest by writing on your userpage your username, the employer, and the sort of edits you'll be making on that employer's behalf. This need not be an elaborate template; a simple sentence in the vein of "I, (username), am editing (articles) on behalf of my employer (employer)" will work. It does need to be on your userpage specifically, and not your draft or user talk page.

Why won’t you unblock my account?
Discussions about blocking are, as a rule, out of #wikipedia-en-help’s remit. Your user talk page, #wikipedia-en-unblock, and UTRS are your options for contesting your block, in descending order of importance. Note that channel policy not only prevents us from helping blocked users, it also allows channel operators to kick, ban, and/or remove blocked users who refuse to leave when asked.

I'm in an argument with someone and they're clearly wrong!
We will not exacerbate or intercede in an obvious content dispute. For one, attempting to recruit others from off-wiki (and IRC counts) to support your position is unacceptable. For two, even if there are conduct issues involved, taking administrative actions based on an IRC discussion isn't acceptable save for bright-line issues (block evasion, egregious and persistent vandalism), of which edit-warring does not qualify. The same applies to deletion debates, RfCs, and AN discussions.

How do I become an administrator?
Becoming an administrator on Wikipedia requires a long edit history, the patience of a saint, a thorough understanding of policy, and a hell week where every single one of your flaws, follies, and foibles WILL be exposed for everyone to see. A new user who registered one month ago is just not going to have a successful hell week.

I want admin rights to lock down (foo) so only I may edit it!
This is not only technically impossible (administration is not page-level and protection is not granular in scope), but it would violate the protection policy. Any administrator who would attempt to force an article to have specific content in it through the use of their tools risks their tools being revoked.

I want to talk to your boss/supervisor!
Every helper in #wikipedia-en-help, just like the overwhelming majority of Wikipedia editors as a whole, is an unpaid volunteer who helps there on their own time and of their own volition. There is no higher-up to contact that would care about what their employee is doing off company time (and attempting to contact employers anyway is a good way to be blocked from Wikipedia and banned from its IRC channels). Even if we were employed directly by the Wikimedia Foundation, we would not be helping or editing content in our capacity as paid staff.

I have a company logo I want to upload!
First, we would need to determine its copyright status. Logos that are merely text (no matter how creative the font) or simple geometric shapes can't be copyrighted under US law. Anything more complex is almost certainly under full copyright and would need to comply with our non-free content criteria to be used.

I found an image on Google I want to upload!
It's more likely than not the image is fully copyrighted and thus needs to comply with the nonfree content criteria above, unless the image is explicitly in the public domain or explicitly under a copyright licence compatible with Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0. (This would be CC-0, CC-By, and CC-By-SA; images with the No Derivative Works (ND) or Noncommercial (NC) prongs are treated as fully copyrighted as far as Wikipedia is concerned.)

Why don't you offer help in private messages?
For practicality's sake and to allow other helpers to chime in as needed (in case a question requires advanced permissions or a helper is uncomfortable answering/needs to leave suddenly), we won't help users via private message barring extraordinary circumstances. We have also had users outright attempt to hire us or otherwise proposition us via PM.

Google's box on the right side that pulls information from Wikipedia is wrong!/My article isn't showing up on Google!
Nine times out of ten, the information Google is using for its Knowledge Graph is from an out-of-date revision or not from Wikipedia to begin with, and Google's cache has not updated to reflect this. This is also why Wikipedia articles in mainspace don't immediately show up in a Google search. (Drafts, userspace pages, and many project-space pages won't/shouldn't show up under any circumstance due to being noindexed.)

There's a technical question or issue I'm having...
While #wikipedia-en-help could technically handle such a question, you're more apt to get a response from #wikimedia-tech, which is set up to handle technical issues with the MediaWiki software (which is what Wikipedia uses) and has users who are more knowledgeable about the software than the helpers in #wikipedia-en-help.

I need legal/medical help!
CONTACT A LAWYER OR DOCTOR IN YOUR AREA. We cannot (and will not) attempt to engage in the practises of law or medicine. See also Wikipedia's legal and medical disclaimers.

 * Two "=" were twice missing, now the levels should be correct.
 * "Related terms" are present twice.
 * Many or even all of the first "Related terms" are simply derived terms.

 * Many hyponyms are also derived terms and many derived terms are also hyponyms. E.g. "birthday party" is a hyponym and a derived term of "party".
 * "party" has several meanings like political party and social gathering. So it might make sense to split it up by senses: "green party" is a hyponym and a derived term of the sense political party, "birthday party" is a hyponym and derived term of the sense social gathering.
 * "political party" is derived term of party and could be both a hyponym and a synonym depending on the sense of "party". To sense 4, "A political group [...]", it should be a synonym. To sense 3, "A group of people forming one side [...]", it could be a hyponym.

Orenda Fink

Orenda Fink is an American singer, musician, and writer. Perhaps best known as half of the duo Azure Ray, Fink is also a member of Art in Manila, O+S, Closeness, and High Up, and has played with or appeared as a guest on records by Bright Eyes, Conor Oberst, Moby, The Faint, Pete Yorn, and others. She is married to Todd Fink (formerly Todd Baechle) of The Faint.

Biography
Born in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1975, Fink started her musical career at the age of fifteen in the band Little Red Rocket. The band released two CDs, Who Did You Pay (1997, Tim/Kerr) and It's in the Sound (2000, Monolyth Record Group). After the group disbanded, Fink and her bandmate Maria Taylor moved to Athens, Georgia, where they formed Azure Ray. (Drummer Louis Schefano would go on to be a founding member of Remy Zero). The pair signed to Warm Records and released two albums, their self-titled debut in 2001, and Burn and Shiver in 2002, both produced by Eric Bachmann (Archers of Loaf, Crooked Fingers). After meeting Bright Eyes front man Conor Oberst in Athens, he invited the duo on tour and introduced them to Saddle Creek Records. Also in 2002, Fink and Taylor co-wrote and recorded two songs with Moby - "The Great Escape" (which appeared on his album 18) and “Landing” (which appeared on the XXX soundtrack) - and afterwards joined him on tour. Saddle Creek released Azure Ray's November EP later in 2002, as well as their third album, Hold On Love, and its single, "The Drinks We Drank Last Night", in 2003, after which the band went on a six-year hiatus.

Fink released her first solo album, Invisible Ones, on August 23, 2005. She said she had a spiritual awakening while in Haiti and her solo music is inspired, in part, by Haitian folk music. In 2006, she formed a new band, Art in Manila (originally called Art Bell), with members of The Good Life, The Anniversary, and others. Saddle Creek released the band's album, Set the Woods On Fire, on August 7, 2007.

On November 30, 2008, Azure Ray reformed for a one-off show at Los Angeles's iconic Troubadour. The duo was accompanied by Andy LeMaster of Now It's Overhead and Nick White of Tilly and the Wall.

Earlier in 2008, Fink began collaborating with a long-time friend, Remy Zero bassist Cedric LeMoyne, on a project called O+S. Their songs were initially inspired by sounds she had recorded in Haiti, among other places, and loops crafted by LeMoyne out of those recordings. O+S' self-titled debut album was released on March 24, 2009 by Saddle Creek. The following October, Fink released her second solo album, Ask the Night, which Pitchfork called more "austere and rustic" with "intricate soundscapes". The single "High Ground" features guest vocals by Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse; another single, "Why Is the Night Sad", had been previously played by Azure Ray at their 2008 reunion show.

In 2009, Taylor announced on KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic that Azure Ray was reforming on a semi-permanent basis to play "five or six" shows, then beginning work on a new album. Their fourth album, Drawing Down the Moon, was released in September 2010. An outtake from those sessions, "Silverlake", featuring Mark Linkous of Sparklehorse, was released as a standalone digital single in 2011.

Later in 2011, Fink began another collaborative project, this time with occasional Of Montreal member Nina Barnes; "after hanging out together in Athens, Georgia", they "decided to form a DJing and performance art duo." As part of their performance exploring the "dark and the light of the female condition", Barnes and Fink incorporated zombies, sword battles, strawberries and whipped cream, paint and glitter, and Asian aesthetic influences into their earlier shows as part of a "hedonistic celebration of all life's earthly delights". Rolling Stone premiered their track "The Swamp Theme" on October 28, 2011, and their debut release, a double 7-inch vinyl single, was released in November 2012.

Also in 2012, Fink and a pregnant Taylor entered the studio to record new Azure Ray material in collaboration with Andy LeMaster and Todd Fink. A six-song EP, As Above So Below, was released on September 5, 2012, on Saddle Creek. "The band wanted to break from the folksy, indie acoustic sound they’d established... It’s trance-inducing and minimalist... and their haunting voices are still just as lovely as ever" said Paste magazine.

Fink began recording her third solo album in December 2013, working with her "dream team" of Ben Brodin, Todd Fink, and Bill Rieflin. She was "inspired to write the songs...after her beloved dog of 16 years, Wilson, passed away" and she later began "writing in a dream journal every day, [when] the ideas of the album came forth". The resulting album, Blue Dream, was released by Saddle Creek on August 19, 2014. NPR praised it as a "collection of distinctly futuristic love songs".

In November 2015, Fink underwent emergency heart surgery for an issue she'd been aware of since childhood, but had never dealt with. After months spent recovering, she eventually began working again, first with painting and writing in journals. Although she and her husband Todd had talked about starting a band together numerous times since getting married in 2005, they finally began working on a new project in early 2016, eventually taking the name Closeness. Personality Therapy, the debut EP by Closeness, was released on February 24, 2017, via Graveface Records. That same year, O+S released their second record, You Were Once the Sun, Now You're the Moon, on Saddle Creek. Fink had also spent 2017 working on a new band with her sister, Christine Fink, called High Up. Their debut album, called You Are Here, was released on Conor Oberst's label, Team Love Records. Atwood Magazine reviewed the album positively, calling it "passionate, heartfelt and energetic", "soulful", and "a raw, intimate portrait of turmoil and inner strength".

The previous November, Azure Ray announced that they would once again reunite for a one-off show in Los Angeles on January 20, 2018. On September 26, Stereogum premiered a new Azure Ray single called "Palindrome", heralding the release of their first new record in six years, the Waves (Azure Ray EP)|Waves EP, on October 26, 2018, this time on Maria Taylor's own label, Flower Moon Records. Billboard premiered a new recording of the title track of their 2003 album, "Hold On Love", reflecting the ways the song had changed after years of playing it live. KCRW premiered the "hauntingly beautiful" video for EP's second single, "Last Summer in Omaha" (directed by Nik Fackler), on October 25.

Closeness spent May 2019 opening for The Faint on the American leg of their tour for Egowerk. In addition to performing tracks from their 2017 EP, they premiered new songs and a cover of Sebadoh's "Brand New Love". In October 2020, Fink announced that her solo discography had moved to long-time collaborator Maria Taylor's label, Flower Moon Records. 2020 also celebrated the 20th Anniversary of Azure Ray' self-titled album, which was released on vinyl for the first time. Azure Ray announced their first album in 10 years, "Remedy," in March 2021. Recording during COVID-19 pandemic, the album's title track was released on March 25, 2021.

Writing
In 2018, the first excerpts of Fink's memoir were published in the anthology Rockhaven: A History of Interiors, published by Which Witch LA. Hyperallergic.com said "the narrative strength of the anthology is carried by Adriana Widdoes, Orenda Fink, Johanna Hedva, and Suzanne Scanlon, whose generational accounts of their grandmother, mother, and selves, respectively, are as vivid as they are heartbreaking... Stoic, evocative, and heartbreaking, Fink brings us into the room and leaves us there.  Stories of psychosis rarely resolve themselves and this literary choice rings true even if it isn't traditionally cathartic".

Ribeira Palace

Ribeira Palace (Paço da Ribeira) was the main residence of the Kings of Portugal, in Lisbon, for around 250 years. Its construction was ordered by King Manuel I of Portugal when he found the Royal Alcáçova of São Jorge unsuitable. The palace complex underwent numerous reconstructions and reconfigurations from the original Manueline design, ending with its final Mannerist and Baroque form.

The Ribeira Palace, as well as most of the city of Lisbon, was destroyed in the 1755 earthquake. After the earthquake, the reigning monarch, King José I, suffered from claustrophobia and chose to live the rest of his life in a group of pavilions in the hills of Ajuda, and thus the palace was never rebuilt.

Today, Lisbon's primary square, the Praça do Comércio, is situated on the site of the former palace. The square is still popularly referred to as the Terreiro do Paço ("Palace Yard/Square"), reminiscent of the now destroyed royal residence.

Manueline era
After the Siege of Lisbon, in 1147, the monarchs of Portugal had used the Palace of Alcáçova, in the São Jorge Castle, as their residence while in Lisbon, which did not become Portugal's definite capital until 1225. Over the years, various Portuguese monarchs added to the Palace of Alcáçova, and by the time King Manuel I of Portugal succeeded the throne, the Palace of Alcáçova was a large, but cramped, complex, not fitting with the tastes of King Manuel I. With his lucrative profits from Portugal's monopoly on the spice trade, King Manuel I set off on a building spree, renovating the Lisbon landscape, and starting with the construction of a new royal palace.

The groundbreaking of the palace was in 1498. The new palace was not to be located on a high and easily protected fortress hill, like the Palace of Alcáçova was, but instead was built on the river shore of the Tagus river, giving it the name of Ribeira Palace, or Palace of the Riverside. The new royal palace was located in the heart of renaissance Lisbon, which had become one of the most important cities and ports in all Europe, on account of its importance in the spice trade and Age of Discoveries. Ribeira palace was situated next to the Ribeira das Naus shipyard and near all the major Lisbon trading houses.

In 1502, the palace had been built large enough so that the Portuguese Royal Court could begin moving into the palace. In 1508, King Manuel I started expansion works on the palace, which ended in 1510, and appointed Diogo de Arruda as head architect of the project. The King was an absolutist in all manners, and sought to concentrate all his powers in Ribeira Palace, by holding the Portuguese Cortes and installing the Casa da Índia, the imperial administration, in the palace's walls. The palace of King Manuel I, and his successors until King Henry I of Portugal, was a true palace of the Portuguese Renaissance. Done in the Manueline style, among others, the palace included various wings, loggia, balconies, gardens, and courtyards. The main loggia of the palace, facing the Terreiro do Paço, followed the style employed by King Manuel I at many of his palaces, most notably at the Royal Palace of Évora.

The hallmark of the palace, not just in the Manueline era but in all its history, was its Tower of the King, in the southern wing. During the Manueline era, the Casa da Índia was installed in the tower, which hoisted a large sculpture of the Royal Coat of Arms of Portugal on the exterior of the tower, facing the river. Starting in 1525, King John III sponsored a set of enlargements and renovations to the palace, which, most notably, altered the Tower of the King, expanding it and opening a large balcony, faced towards the Tagus.

It was during the Manueline era, when the House of Aviz ruled Portugal, that the Portuguese Renaissance truly flourished, and Ribeira Palace was one of its centers. It was a beacon for artists, scientists, navigators, and noblemen from all over Portugal and Europe alike. It was at Ribeira Palace, in 1515, that Gil Vicente, the father of Portuguese and Spanish theatre, first performed his play Quem Tem Farelos? for King Manuel I. The palace was also where other great Portuguese and European artists and scholars presented themselves, including Luís de Camões, Portuguese playwright, Cristóvão de Morais, Portuguese painter, and Pedro Nunes, Portuguese mathematician and royal tutor.

Philippine era
When the House of Habsburg seized the throne, in 1580, the newly acclaimed King Philip I of Portugal started a large series of constructions and renovations throughout Portugal, seeking to rehabilitate the kingdom after the War of the Portuguese Succession. During his three-year stay in Lisbon, from 1580 to 1583, King Philip I, who also ruled as King of Castile, Aragon, and Naples, considered turning Lisbon into the imperial capital of his trans-European monarchy and empire.

To better suit Lisbon for King Philip I's extravagant court, the King ordered the remodeling and expansion of Ribeira Palace, under the authority of Filipe Terço, the Master of the Royal Works. King Philip I decided to modernize the palace, stripping it of its early renaissance, Manueline style and planning and converting Ribeira Palace into a monumental, organized Mannerist complex. The highlight of the Philippine renovations was the reconstruction and enlargement of the Tower of the King, which transformed a three-story Manueline tower, which housed the Casa da Índia, into a five-story Mannerist tower, complete with an observatory and one of the largest royal libraries in all of Europe.To beautify the palace the monarch commissioned several artists, such as Correggio, Rubens and, most famously, Titian, who made a massive painting on the ceiling of the Royal Library portraying Philip II holding a globe and being crowned.

When King Philip I left Lisbon, in 1583, Ribeira Palace became the official seat of the Council of Portugal and the residence of the Viceroys of Portugal. King Philip I's successors, King Philip II, and King Philip III, did not continue his legacy of stressing the importance of Lisbon, and instead visited their Portuguese capital only on rare ceremonial occasions. However, each time King Philip II and King Philip III visited Ribeira Palace, they ordered the construction of a ceremonial arch for the palace's Terreiro do Paço, culminating in a large series or triumphal and ceremonial arches by the end of the Philippine era.

Brigantine era
Another king to improve the palace was John V, who invested great sums – derived from the gold mines in colonial Brazil – to enlarge and embellish the Ribeira Palace. Deciding against building a new palace in the capital from scratch due to both monetary concerns and outcry from the court, King John V turned his attention to the Ribeira Palace. The original manueline chapel was turned into a magnificent baroque church, and the palace gained another wing for the queen, parallel to the previous one, commissioned to the Italian Antonio Cannevari. Later in the century, King Joseph I built a Royal Opera House by the palace, designed by the Italian Giuseppe Bibiena. The Ópera do Tejo, inaugurated in 1755, lasted only a few months. On 1 November 1755, a huge earthquake, and resulting tsunami and fire destroyed the palace and most of Lisbon. The 70,000-volume royal library housed within the palace, as well as hundreds of works of art, were lost. The royal archives disappeared together with detailed historical records of explorations by Vasco da Gama and other early navigators. King Joseph I was not at the palace and survived. His prime minister, the 1st Marquis of Pombal, coordinated a massive reconstruction effort that would give rise to the Pombaline Downtown of Lisbon. The royal family abandoned the Ribeira area and moved to palaces in the areas of Ajuda and Belém.

The old Palace Square (Terreiro do Paço) gave rise to a new square, the Pombaline Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio). The two towers at the corners of the square are still reminiscent of the old tower of the Ribeira Palace.

Fourier transform

Fourier Transform represents a function $$s \left( t \right)$$ as a "linear combination" of complex sinusoids at different frequencies $$\omega\,$$. Fourier proposed that a function may be written in terms of a sum of complex sine and cosine functions with weighted amplitudes.

In Euler notation the complex exponential may be represented as:

$$e^{j\omega t}\, = \cos(\omega t) + j \sin(\omega t)$$

Thus, the definition of a Fourier transform is usually represented in complex exponential notation.

The Fourier transform of s(t) is defined by $$ S \left( \omega \right) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^\infty s\left( t\right) e^{-j\omega t}\,dt.$$

Under appropriate conditions original function can be recovered by:

$$ s \left( t \right) = \frac{1}{2\pi} \int\limits_{-\infty}^\infty S\left( \omega\right) e^{j\omega t}\,d\omega.$$

The function $$ S \left( \omega \right) $$ is the Fourier transform of $$s \left( t \right)$$. This is often denoted with the operator $$\mathcal{F}$$, in the case above, $$ S \left( \omega \right) = \mathcal{F} \left(s ( t) \right)$$

The function $$ s \left( t \right) $$ must satisfy the Dirichlet conditions in order for $$ s \left( t \right) $$ for the integral defining Fourier transform to converge.

Forward Fourier Transform(FT)/Anaysis Equation

$$

S \left( \omega \right) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^\infty s\left( t\right) e^{-j\omega t}\,dt.$$

Inverse Fourier Transform(IFT)/Synthesis Equation

$$ s \left( t \right) = \frac{1}{2\pi} \int\limits_{-\infty}^\infty S\left( \omega\right) e^{j\omega t}\,d\omega.$$

Explanation coming from Linear Algebra
According to linear algebra, for every orthogonal B of a vector space H, and every element x of H

 * $$x = \sum_{b\in B} \langle b,x\rangle b.$$

holds true.

 * $$ \begin{align}

B &:= \{b_k | k\in 1,2,..,N\} ,\quad \text{with}\\ b_k &:= (e^{1\cdot 2\pi ik/N}, e^{2\cdot 2\pi ik/N}, ..., e^{N\cdot 2\pi ik/N})^T / \sqrt{N} \end{align} $$

is an orthonormal basis as can be confirmed by calculating the scalar products. This means that

 * $$ \begin{align}

x_n &= \sum_{k=1}^N X_k e^{n\cdot 2\pi ik/N} / \sqrt{N},\quad\text{with}\\ X_k &:= \sum_{n=1}^N x_n e^{-n\cdot 2\pi ik/N} / \sqrt{N} \end{align} $$

($$x_n$$ denotes the n'th component of the vector x) holds true for every N-dimensional vector x. $$X_k$$ is exactly the discrete Fourier transform, and we just proved that the inverse discrete Fourier transform of the discrete Fourier transform of a vector x is the vector x, which is the central theorem of discrete Fourier theory. Discrete Fourier theory essentially means writing something in the Fourierbasis B. This also explains the linearity of the Fourier transformation.

Relation to the Laplace Transform
In fact, the Fourier Transform can be viewed as a special case of the bilateral Laplace Transform. If the complex Laplace variable s were written as $$ s = \sigma + j \omega \,$$, then the Fourier transform is just the bilateral Laplace transform evaluated at $$\sigma = 0 \,$$. This justification is not mathematically rigorous, but for most applications in engineering the correspondence holds.

Angry Birds Trilogy

Angry Birds Trilogy is a video game co-developed by Rovio Entertainment, Exient Entertainment, Housemarque, and Fun Labs and published by Activision.

The game contains the first three games of the popular mobile game series, Angry Birds (2009), Angry Birds Seasons (2010), and Angry Birds Rio (2011) and was released for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and on Nintendo 3DS on September 25, 2012, in North America and September 28 in Europe. Both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game are able to be played with motion controls along with the traditional controllers. The game was released on Wii and Wii U consoles on August 13, 2013, in North America and on August 16 in Europe. The game was released for the PlayStation Vita in October 2013.

This compilation includes exclusive levels that cannot be found on the original games. The game also contains biographies of each bird, except for Hal (green bird), Bubbles (orange bird), and Stella (pink bird). To ensure that the compilation is considerably up to date with more recent versions of the originally released games, Rovio released downloadable content packs, such as the Anger Management Pack and the Fowl Temper Pack, on select platforms. The Anger Management Pack was made available on December 18, 2012, and the Fowl Tempered Pack was made available on March 8, 2013.

Gameplay
In Angry Birds Trilogy, the player controls a flock of multi-colored birds that are attempting to retrieve their eggs, which have been stolen by a group of hungry green pigs (on the Angry Birds Rio levels, the birds are trying to get back to their eggs). On each level, the pigs (in Rio, caged birds or marmosets) are sheltered by structures made of various materials such as wood, glass, and stone, and the objective of the game is to eliminate them on the level. Using a slingshot, players launch the birds with the intent of either hitting the pigs directly or damaging the structures, causing them to collapse and pop the pigs. In various stages of the game, additional objects such as explosive crates and rocks are found in the structures and may be used in conjunction with the birds to pop hard-to-reach pigs.

Controls
Most versions of Trilogy support motion controls (or require them, as in the Wii version), where players can use a pointer-based motion control system (such as the Move's Orb or the Kinect sensor's hand tracker) or a touch screen to operate and aim the slingshot. If motion controls are not preferred, the slingshot is instead controlled with an analog stick.

In all versions, except the Wii and Nintendo 3DS versions, it is possible to quickly reset a level by holding down a certain controller button for two seconds.

Reception
IGN's Lucas M. Thomas noted the enhanced visuals and its extras, but was unfavorable on the motion controls, as opposed to the standard controls, and the price tag. "If you've already spent your $2.97 before [...] just go back to your iPhone. If unhealthily addicted to all things Angry Birds though, feel free to pick up this package.". The latter remark was also made by Ron DelVillano of Nintendo Life. Robert Workman of GameZone panned the 3DS version, comparably to the home console versions and the original mobile one, regarding the design as underwhelming and effects as "minimal". Dan Whitehead of Eurogamer decried the Kinect feature on the Xbox 360 version, calling it worse than the gameplay on the mobile versions, and slightly worse than the PlayStation Move.

Woolston, Southampton

Woolston is a suburb of Southampton, Hampshire, located on the eastern bank of the River Itchen. It is bounded by the River Itchen, Sholing, Peartree Green, Itchen and Weston.

The area has a strong maritime and aviation history. The former hamlet grew as new industries, roads and railways came to the area in the Victorian era with Woolston formally incorporated into the borough of Southampton in 1920.

History

Woolston is believed to originate from Olafs tun, a fortified tun on the East bank of the River Itchen established by the Viking leader Olaf I of Norway in the 10th Century.

In the Domesday Book of 1086, the area is recorded as Olvestune. The area now known as Woolston is certain to have received consignments of wool to be ferried across the River Itchen, Hampshire by the inhabitants of Itchen Ferry village. The evolution of Olvestune into "Woolston" is a result of that trade.

The former hamlet grew as new industries, roads and railways came to the area in the Victorian era with Woolston formally incorporated into the borough of Southampton in 1920. First-class cricket was briefly played at Woolston at Day's Itchen Ground by Hampshire from 1848 to 1850; the ground was leased on land owned by the Woolston Hotel, today known as The Cricketers Arms, on Portsmouth Road.

Development of the Itchen Bridge in the 1970s, to link Woolston with the Southampton City Centre, required significant changes. Old terraces had to be demolished to make room for the new structure. However, as the bus terminal that served passengers boarding and departing the Woolston ferry was no longer required, it was demolished and made way for houses to be built.

In the 21st century Woolston's Vosper Thorneycroft shipyard closed and a new development, Centenary Quay, was built on the site.

Governance
Before 1920 Woolston was governed as part of the Itchen Urban District, from when it became part of Southampton, which later achieved city status and then became a unitary authority, governed by Southampton City Council.

Woolston is within the Woolston ward which also includes the neighbouring Weston. The ward elects three councillors to the city council, currently all Labour members. Many locations generally considered part of Woolston, including the railway station and the Millennium Garden, are in the neighbouring Peartree ward.

The Woolston ward is within the Southampton Itchen parliamentary constituency, represented in the House of Commons by Royston Smith of the Conservative Party since 2015.

Prior to Brexit in 2020, the area was represented in the European Parliament within the South East England constituency.

Geography
Woolston is bounded by Sholing, Peartree Green, Itchen and Weston; with the western boundary as the River Itchen. Its boundary with Weston is the stream that runs through Mayfield Park.

The nearest motorway is the M27; Woolston is closest to Junctions 7 and 8.

Economy
Woolston has a shopping area centred on the Victoria Rd/Portsmouth Rd crossroads and by the Woolston Floating Bridge.

There had been a shipbuilding site on Victoria Road since 1870, (from 1900 the Vosper Thornycroft shipbuilding company) which was the major employer in Woolston until 31 March 2004 when operations were relocated to Portsmouth.

A large 'supermarket style' Co-op was opened on Victoria Road in April 2004, to replace a smaller ageing shop on the same road. On Saturday 23 May 2015, the large Co-op was shut down and the building sold to Lidl, which opened in February 2017.

Woolston Riverside Regeneration
The Victoria Road shipyard site was acquired by the South East England Development Agency (SEEDA) in March 2003. and finally vacated by Vosper Thorneycroft March 2004.

The South East England Development Agency subsequently announced plans for the site, to be split into two sections:
 * A residential and retail area, under the brand name Centenary Quay.
 * 8.2 hectares for a marine employment quarter at the north of the site providing 820 jobs. This sector will also include an 'upper tier budget hotel'.

The marine and commercial section will include several quays for vessels:

The redevelopment of the waterside site may rejuvenate the shopping area, but has also been predicted to place extra burden on the Itchen Bridge and cause extra congestion in Woolston. Developers of the residential site are reported to be considering the possibility of re-introducing a ferry service to Southampton.

Work started on phase one of the Centenary Quay development July 2010. Phase one consists of creating family housing to the east of the site, as well as establishing a frontage to Victoria Road.

Houses have already been built on the land at Weston Shore where the Royal Navy stores once stood. Clearing that brownfield site was a major exercise, complicated by old munitions, including Mustard Gas shells which had been buried in the ground and asbestos. The redeveloped area is now in the district of Woolston

Woolston is thus becoming more of a residential area, though it will still retain some marine industry with facilities to berth vessels of up to 76 m in length.

Landmarks
The Woolston Millennium Garden was created for the residents by a local group. It was completed in 2002. Its focal point is a 10-metre tall metal and recycled glass feather intended to signify Woolston's history of flight and sail. The garden is divided into three areas, signifying the earth, the sky and the sea. Many of the crew of the Titanic came from Woolston and there are bricks in the pathway through the garden that are inscribed with their names.

Centenary Quay also has Southamptons tallest building within in it, on the edge of Woolston.

Education

St. Mark's Infants school in Church Road moved to new premises in Florence Road in 1974, becoming Woolston First School and is now known as Woolston Infant School. Ludlow Infant School is situated on the same site as Ludlow Junior School, the largest Southampton primary school with 600 pupils.

Woolston no longer provides education for pupils over the age of eleven, since Woolston School was controversially closed in July 2008 to make way for the Oasis Academy Mayfield.

Southampton City College operates a Marine Skills Centre on Hazel Road which runs vocational courses (usually for 16+ pupils).

Religious sites
Woolston has three Christian places of worship. St. Mark's Church, built in 1863 and a Grade II listed building, serves the Church of England community; St. Patrick's Church, built in 1884 serves the Roman Catholic community (the site also houses a catholic primary school). There is also a Kingdom Hall operated by Jehovah's Witnesses.

St. Mary's Presbyterian Church was built in 1876 but was demolished in 1972.

Leisure and community
The Archery Grounds, bounded by Swift Road and Archery Road, consists of a large grass space, with a children's play area. There is a path leading through to Mayfield Park, a partially wooded, partially open recreational area situated on the border of Woolston and neighbouring Weston.

The building that was previously St. Mark's Infants School in Church Road is now Woolston Community Centre.

Public services
The fire station in Portsmouth Road was no longer required once the Itchen Bridge provided easy access for the fire crews at St Mary's on the Southampton side of the river. That old building is now a Doctors' surgery.

Across the road are two more doctors surgeries – Woolston Lodge Surgery and Canute Surgery – and a Lloyds pharmacy.

Transport
Woolston railway station is on the West Coastway Line, situated at the end of the Itchen Bridge and operated by South Western Railway. The line from Southampton to Woolston was opened on 5 March 1866, accessible from Bridge Road, with an extension opened in November 1867 to serve the Royal Victoria Military Hospital at Netley, where it originally terminated. The line was extended to Fareham on 2 September 1889, whereupon it became possible to run through trains to Portsmouth via a separate line that had been built to link Eastleigh and Gosport in 1841.

The Itchen Bridge is a toll bridge that crosses the River Itchen, from Woolston to the Chapel area of Southampton near Ocean Village and St Mary's Stadium. The bridge was opened to traffic on 1 June 1977 and formally named on 13 June 1977 by Princess Alexandra. Costing £5.7 million, the high-level concrete bridge spans 107 m between its central pillars and carries two lanes of traffic 24 m above the river, allowing large vessels to proceed further upstream to the wharfs and quays in Northam. Tolls are charged for vehicles crossing the bridge, toll booths and a control room are situated at the Woolston end. Buses, pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists cross free. A cable ferry served Woolston from 1938 until the opening of the bridge. Prior to the Woolston Floating Bridge, the Itchen ferry boats provided transport across the River Itchen.

There is a major bus stop on the Woolston link road, a separate bus-only access to the Itchen Bridge which by-passes the toll booths, served by a number of bus routes running through the suburb.

Polsat News 2

Polsat News 2 (formerly TV Biznes, Polsat Biznes and Polsat News +) is a Polish publicist-information television channel. It complements the main sister channel Polsat News, with in-depth commentary. It broadcasts programs devoted to national, foreign, political, economic and cultural events.

History
The channel was created in September 2004 as TV Biznes. The founder and owner of TV Biznes was Professor Piotr Chomczyński and Piotr Barełkowski. On February 8, 2007, Telewizja Polsat became the owner of the channel. On February 18, 2013, TV Biznes was renamed Polsat Biznes.

On 9 June 2014 at 10 am, the channel was relaunched as Polsat News +. The plus sign was saved in the same way as in the Plus mobile logo, having the same owner as Polsat. However, on 31 July 2014, the name was changed to Polsat News 2 following a lawsuit filed by Polsat with ITI Neovision, the owner of the competing nc+ platform. Since ITI Neovision has the plus sign (taken from its main shareholder Canal+) all its own channels, the District Court has decided to secure the suit for the duration of the ongoing process by ordering Polsat to change its name. In November 2014, the Court of Appeal reviewed Polsat's appeal and overturned the previous decision, allowing the channel to be restored to its current name. Polsat has not yet decided on a possible renaming of the channel. In December 2014 the District Court in Warsaw issued a judgment which dismissed the suit nc+ in its entirety, but the verdict is not legally binding. However, the Court has forbidden the platform to use the "+" symbol in the name of the channel Polsat News + and the programme + Kultura. In addition to the prohibition, the court ordered the TV station falsity to announce that it can not use the + sign in its channels.

In June 2018, the company stopped producing and broadcasting its own programs.

On 30 August 2021, the channel adopted a new logo, as a part of corporate-wide rebranding of Grupa Polsat Plus.

From April 16, 2024, the channel is available in HD quality.

Programming
The flagship program is To był dzień na świecie. In addition, the framework includes programs previously broadcast on Polsat Biznes, i.e. Zoom na giełdę, Biznes Informacje, Nie daj się fiskusowi oraz nowe: Prawy do Lewego, Lewy do Prawego, Rozmowa polityczna, WidziMiSię, Wysokie C, poŚwiata, Od redakcji, Pociąg do polityki, Fajka pokoju i Naczelni.

X86 Assembly

This book covers assembly language programming for the x86 family of microprocessors. The objective is to teach how to program in x86 assembly, as well as the history and basic architecture of x86 processor family.

When referring to x86 we address the complete range of x86-based processors (since the original Intel 8086 in 1978). This includes:
 * IA-32 assembly, also commonly referred to as x86-32 assembly (Intel architecture 32-bit, since the Intel 80386), a 32-bit extension of the original 16-bit Intel x86 processor architecture (used in Intel 8086 - 80286 CPUs). IA-32 has full backwards compatibility with the 16-bit x86.
 * x86-64, also called the AMD64 or AMD 64-bit extension, backwards compatible with 32-bit code without performance loss.
 * Intel 64, previously named IA-32e or EM64T, almost identical to x86-64.

Throughout the book these terms may be used interchangeably when appropriate. A special notice will be given when covering 16-bit, 32-bit or 64-bit architectures and on any limitations to limit confusion.

Note, that there is a separate 64-bit instruction set, the IA-64 (Itanium). It was meant to replace the x86 line, but did not gain as much popularity as anticipated, so this replacement did not occur.

Talk:e.g.

Followed by a comma or not?
The examples provided use both a comma (e.g., yes) and without (e.g. chocolate and marzipan). Which is correct? Preferred? -Andre Q <IP_ADDRESS> 00:15, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

I do believe there should be mention of commas in this entry. Most style guides, e.g., Chicago Manual (16th edition 6:43), call for a comma. That makes sense when you realize the expression 'e.g.' means in essence "for example," which is typically surrounded by commas in a sentence. But see Chicago Manual for greater precision Joe Detroit (talk) 19:53, 11 November 2015 (UTC)

It seems that it should be followed by a comma in US english, but not in UK english. LuisMenina (talk) 08:29, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

Space or nor space between e. and g.?
Or does it not matter? Pbeinbo (talk) 06:25, 8 April 2014 (UTC)

In modern English no space should be common. E.g. dictionary.reference.com only has the non-spaced variant: dictionary.reference.com/browse/e.g.?s=t&path=/. In non-English languages a space is not uncommon in abbreviations (e.g. in Latin and German) and it's not uncommon in older English (like 19th century). books.google.de/books?id=QLXukDnn4PMC&pg=PA1 (English) & books.google.de/books?id=tytUAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA6 (American) e.g. contain e. g., ex. g., ex. gr. (English) & E. G. (American) for exempli gratia. Also: When using a space and when using a computer, a non-breaking space should be used (& nbsp ; [without those spaces]), maybe a thin one (& #8239 ; [without those spaces] -- not & thinsp ; [without those spaces] as that's not non-breaking). --IP, 09:37, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
 * e.g. (no space)
 * e. g. (space)

Using Ex and friends instead of e.g.
Noticed on some websites (e.g. wikipedia) the use of (Ex ...), and variations, instead of e.g. The artical doesn't comment on whether this is a mistake or trend. <IP_ADDRESS> 14:12, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

RFV discussion: June–September 2015
Is Latin e.g. (without space) attestabe? In the internet (la.wp, la.wt) it's used, but as far as I saw it's only "e. g." (with a space) in Latin books (resp. New Latin books before the 21th century as google book search doesn't have ancient manuscripts). Also (for comparision): -<IP_ADDRESS> 14:55, 28 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Even in English spaces were traditionally used, e.g. in books before the 20th/21st century it's often "A. D." (with a space) and not "A.D." (without a space).
 * German spelling rules even prescribe the use of spaces (e.g. "z. B.") though this is nowaydays sometimes omitted as it isn't easy to type non-breaking spaces which are the correct ones to use.
 * Frustratingly, I can't figure out a way to search for this on Google Books and get results in Latin rather than results in English discussing Latin. For example, is entirely useless. It seems reasonable that this may have been used, but I just don't know how to prove it. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 08:27, 12 August 2015 (UTC)

 * I found three citations (which I added to the entry) by searching for "est e.g." (which still found a lot of non-Latin chaff). I also found this where there's a bit of space between the "e." an the "g." but not as much as between words:
 * 1749, Johann Gottlieb Heinecke, Joh. Gottlieb Heineccii [...] Operum, volume 8, page 22:
 * Aliud, si quis culpa sua ratione priuatus est, e.g. propter ebrietatem; et tune aliter formanda regula:
 * - -sche (discuss) 21:07, 12 August 2015 (UTC)

If it is valid, than "e.g." should be attestable. But then maybe a note could be added, like "since the 20th century" or "in Englishmen's 'modern' orthography".
 * Thanks sche.
 * Regarding Heinecke and the small space: (a) In younger non-English style guides it's not rarely said that it is like "e.[small space]g." or "e.[small non-breaking space]g.", so with a smaller space. (As it's not easy to type such a space often "& nbsp ;" is used though, which is just non-breaking but not smaller.) (b) Maybe one could explain the smaller space by full justification (see below).
 * Is "1907, Wallace Martin Lindsay, Syntax of Plautus" a valid quote? It's from an Englishman (or maybe "Britman"), it's from the 20th century, and the book title even is in English. So, it rather seems like an Englishman used his "modern" English orthography instead of traditional ones.
 * In "1732, Antonius Mayr (S.J.), Theologia scholastica tractatus omnes in universitatibus provinciae germaniae superioris societatis jesu tradi solitos, et quaestiones in iis praescriptas complexa, p.55", which might be the same as "1731, Theologia Scholastica" it is also "obligationem e. g. restituendi". So the very small or missing space in the given quote could be explained by full justification (Blocksatz).
 * In "1821, Julius Müller, Ratio et historia [...]" it is also "commutatur, e. g." on page 3. So maybe one could explain the spelling on page 10 by full justification.
 * -<IP_ADDRESS> 21:30, 24 August 2015 (UTC)

 * RFV-passed. - -sche (discuss) 09:57, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

Please help re: guideline for italicization?
Should "e.g." and its alternative forms be italicized? Always, never, sometimes? This is not covered in the Usage notes. Also, there's inconsistency in the entry itself:

Alternative forms

Etymology

A terser form of ...

Template:link did not italicize the term "ex. gr." but Template:mention did, so probably this expected behavior, but it still looks odd especially with the lines so close.

I found all this out trying to figure out why some regular (without any templates) text in a different entry was italicized and what the en.WT standard is. Sorry all I can do is data-dump this here. I haven't finished rereading WT:EL and the like yet, and my real-life limitations are starting to act up again. Thanks in advance! —Geekdiva (talk)
