Talk:Heaven's Stairway/Archive 1

When did overgrow.com go down and what happened to it and the forums?
You've recently reverted my edits which I feel was in error.... You listed noted that my revisions were done without any citations.... This is incorrect and the information i had posted is verifiable. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overgrow_%28website%29

You can see that here: Overgrow was launched in 1999 on Vbulletin 1.1 by a group of dedicated individuals inspired to help spread knowledge through the internet medium. Among those was ~shabang~ aka Overgrow at Vbulletin.org

If you follow the link you can see that Overgrow is the creator and that system has been around since Vbulletin 1.1 (1999)

The GrowFAQ are considered an invaluable resource, offering a wealth of knowledge, as well as a place to chat and socialize. Articles have been contributed by users from around the world covering all topics from germination to harvest and beyond. GrowFAQ v1.2 includes 152 topics & 1417 questions with over 10,616,381 answers served since 11-04-2000.The Overgrow GrowFAQ is the premier source for Cannabis cultivation information today. This is the largest online marijuana FAQ and is the default document people refer to when someone asks "How do I grow marijuana?" It is a living document, entirely written by the users, staff, and owners of Overgrow.com. If you have questions about growing Cannabis, this is the place to find the answers -- hundreds of thousands of people have accessed the FAQ and learned how to grow since November, 2000.

My claims about the GrowFAQ can be verified towards the bottome of the page at:  My claims about the strainguide can be seen at: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/search?q=cache:Hu0Y6ktt3qoJ:www.overgrow.com/strainguide/+site:overgrow.com+strainguide&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=1 And the Pic of the Week and Gallery claims can be verified at: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/search?q=cache:gcJTgZGJwzEJ:www.overgrow.com/edge/gallery.php+site:overgrow.com+gallery&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=1 And my claims about Team Overgrow: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/search?q=cache:Z_cjlgigx8YJ:www.overgrow.com/edge/showgroups.php+site:overgrow.com+Forum+Leaders&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=1

Please revert the page to include my changes, what exists now was mostly posted by one of our competitors from CannabisCulture.com and includes no sources and has no verifiable information whatsoever... You've even left the link to their false article about the status of overgrow on the page...

Status
Merged. —Viriditas | Talk 08:18, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

I would strongly disagree with this merger. The ownership of OG contents is in dispute. There should be full article devoted entirely to the largest cannabis cultivation web site on the net.
 * Please provide a reliable source demonstrating this dispute. It's a simple request. —Viriditas | Talk 09:22, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Being down for 2 weeks is no reason to refer to a website in the past tense and appears to be an attempt by competitors to provoke paranoia amongst users of overgrow... If wikipedia were to go down for 2 weeks due to lack of funds or other cause would Britanica jump all over it and start refering to your site as 'Was the largest most valuable resource on the net'? CannabisCulture.com and CannabisCulture the print magazine are the brainchild of Marc Emery the recently arrested and facing extradition competitor of Heaven's Stairway in the Cannabis Seed industry. http://www.cannabisculture.com/articles/4639.html Heck, Google hasn't even dropped us yet: and these guys are ready to dance on our graves... - Anonymous member of Team Overgrow

There is no proof for any of these events other than posts on websites which are in direct competition with Overgrow and related sites. Why has this been edited as if it were fact? - Anon
 * Please be specific. —Viriditas | Talk 08:24, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but dont the administrators and staff of the website count as a source? - Another Anon
 * Again, you'll have to be specific. We can't read minds, here. —Viriditas | Talk 03:12, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Anon, Yes they do count as a source, especially when those moderators are also the moderators of Overgrow.com!! Viriditas has used these same sources to build this article and yet disputes the same sources when anyone else quotes from them. Viriditas will not allow anyone to make any input into the article and deletes the work. I have to revert all day to keep the article real and unbiased and am currently engaged in a debate below to make sure that Viriditas is cornered on trying to create a one-man-band wiki article. His position is not wiki tenable.
 * To answer your question, no, they do not count as a source. If you bothered to read WP:V and WP:RS, you would know that.  The "source" appears to be rumors posted on a non-notable message board. Also, your comment, I have to revert all day (I show around 10 reverts on the main article) shows that you don't understand the WP:3RR.  Please take a break from Wikipedia.  If you continue with your disruptive behavior, you will be blocked. —Viriditas | Talk 09:19, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

The source was Overgrow TOG moderators. You have censored this page in attempt to remove that (See History).
 * That source does not meet Wikipedia standards for inclusion. —Viriditas | Talk 03:33, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Confirm this information before merging
Anon added:

''Now it appears Heaven's Stairway Seeds (hempqc.com), Cannabisworld.com, Overgrow.com, Eurohemp.com have been shut down and the owners arrested in Canada; all their web properties seized, including the physical servers that held massive databases on thousands of growers, and tens of thousands of photographs of cannabis plants. Seed companies by the dozens used both Overgrow.com and Cannabisworld.com as a main trading ground. Over 40 seed companies had customer service interactive forums on these sites. All the information held on those servers is now in the hands of police. It is not known what charges have been laid nor against whom. That police have not boasted about this seizure means the investigation is continuing, before any affected parties can react.''

Unless the anon can cite sources, we can't add this. —Viriditas | Talk 08:24, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Actually he did cite sources above and you got this wrong. He was right. You just ignored the sources.
 * No, in fact the content was unsourced. You appear, however, to be ignoring Wikipedia policies pertaining to reliable sources. —Viriditas | Talk 03:33, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Edits by (talk • contribs)
After two talk page warnings, <IP_ADDRESS> continues to insert commercial and unrelated external links into the article. Due to this behavior I have added the noncompliant tag to the article. —Viriditas | Talk 13:30, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
 * The bust is very real. http://lcn.canoe.com/lcn/infos/faitsdivers/archives/2006/02/20060228-191011.html (--previous unsigned comment by )
 * Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, that link doesn't appear to specify the website, "Overgrow".  It merely states, "La Gendarmerie royale du Canada a procédé à l'arrestation de distributeurs de drogue qui oeuvraient sur Internet."  Can you provide a more specific link? How do we know they are referring to "Overgrow"? —Viriditas | Talk 08:06, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
 * If you look at the video of the news, they say its the company "Heaven's Stairway". They also say at the end of the video that the head of the network was Richard Calrisian.  Here are some other links: http://news.google.ca/news?hl=en&tab=wn&ie=UTF-8&q=heaven%27s+Stairway&btnG=Search+News (--comment by )
 * So, it took a little less than a month for the mainstream media to finally report this? Incredible.  This link should be added to the main article and updated. Thanks. —Viriditas | Talk 00:53, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
 * It might also be of interest that the Overgrow 'grow FAQ' has been mostly recovered on growfaq.marijuana.com (--comment by )
 * At this point, it looks like the article should be moved to Heaven's Stairway, with the appropriate subsections describing the formerly hosted websites. —Viriditas | Talk 07:24, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

So let me get this right? You only use news articles as your source even though OG moderators where telling us this for a month! Give us all a break. The source is GOOD! The 'mainstream' media article confirms this. It probably used the same source!!!! Now why are you rejecting the sources?
 * Exactly. Wikipedia policy is very clear on this.  Please read WP:V and WP:RS. —Viriditas | Talk 09:20, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Ownership of Overgrow.com web site in dispute
Although ~RC~ started paying for the overgrow.com domain name in 2002, using his address for billing, his ownership of the actual site contents is in dispute. The creation of the Vbulletin message board Overgrow scripting (such as the karma feature), the FAQ scripting and Strainbase scripting design, where all the creation of ~shabang~ the original Overgrow admin. ~shabang~ claims that ~RC~ ported the overgrow.com contents to his own servers in 2002 without his knowledge and took control of the forums by having them hacked to prevent ~shabang~ from having any more access to them as admin. ~RC~ then put up a copyright notice claiming ownership of the entire site contents. According to marijuana book author Jorge Cervantes, ~RC~ arranged a contract with him to write on Overgrow book using the site contents in return for money. Jorge Cervantes asked Overgrow members to contribute to an Overgrow book. Jorge Cervantes then used this contribution material not for an Overgrow book but for an update of one of his own books - Marijuana Horticulture that includes a breeding section not written by him but by a seed salesmen going by the name Chimera. Much to the amazement of the contributors the Overgrow book never appeared although Jorge Cervantes claims that he will do one. ~shabang~ says he has never given those rights to either ~RC~ or Jorge Cervantes.
 * Reliable sources, please. WP:NOT. —Viriditas | Talk 12:39, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

The source would be ~shabang~ himself who has made this statement through the owner of www.marijuana.com on http://growfaq.marijuana.com/

"To set the record straight, one final time, regarding the GrowFAQ please let me explain what I know. Last Sunday I was contacted by a guy you all know as ~Shabang~, I prefer to call him by his first name, however this is not the time or the place and as POM has expressed, ~S has absolutely ZERO interests in returning to the scene. A few days ago ~S and I shot about 10 emails back and forth regarding the issue at hand and an offer of sale of the original code SB and GF sourcecode was discussed. ~S assured me as a potential buyer of the software that there are no copyright issues with the applications known as the GrowFAQ and the StrainBase. ~S further explained the situation of how RC had used his code without his consent and basically bastardized the code, including but not limited to removing security features which ~S had in place. The code was never RC’s. He has no claim. This is your RC hero I am speaking of." - Rick Garcia<EMAIL_ADDRESS>owner of www.marijuana.com

The Jorge Cervantes ~RC~ Overgrow book deal information can be found here http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=22804

It would have been nice to find the OG thread where ~shabang~ makes the claim that OG has been stolen but ~RC~ removed it. There are many people who can validate that this dispute over OG ownership exists if you ask around the popular cannabis forums. I am quite sure this ownership problem about OG is very much public knowledge, especially with members who who joined OG pre-2002 and remember who was the Admin... ~shabang~. The bottom line in all this is that name ~shabang~. ~shabang~ was the founder admin of OG along with a group of others. Google for him for further details.

Verify and rewrite
The following content needs to be verified and rewritten. —Viriditas | Talk 10:52, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

This has been verified and the dispute is very real. The best reference is the one below because it is the most recent but all the major cannabis web sites have confirmed that this information is correct. Here is the new edit.

Viriditas did you verify the sources yet? They have been here for quite awhile now. I see no reason why the information needs

Ownership dispute
Overgrow.com (also known as OG) was created by the Internet persona known as ~shabang~ in 1998 following a dialogue on weedbase.com. Some members from weedbase.com joined overgrow.com to form the initial OG community. Early contributions to the site involved the forums, an OG magazine cover story, search engine and a cannabis strain database, called ‘strainbase’, owned by a third party Internet persona known as ‘Baudelaire’. As the member numbers grew, a grow FAQ was introduced in 2001 along with the ‘karma’ members rating system. In 2002 the owner of Heaven's Stairway, known as the Internet persona ~RC~, was asked by ~shabang~ to pay for the domain name using ~RC~'s billing address. ~shabang~ disappeared from the forums only to resurface later with the claim that ~RC~ had ported the OG contents to another server and had the site contents hacked to prevent ~shabang~ from having admin access. During this time ~RC~ put up a copyright notice claiming ownership of the entire site contents. ~RC~ sold these rights to High Times writers. Today ~shabang~ still claims that OG was stolen by ~RC~.
 * Please get rid of the tildes as they make the text difficult to read. Also, I have seen no evidence that this text has been verified.  Please provide at least two reliable sources.  —Viriditas | Talk 00:33, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

If you don't want to keep the tildes then fine, but the accurate versions of the names have the tildes. If you want more evidence then I suggesting visiting www.cannabisculture.com, www.icmag.com and asking for yourself. Right now I have included a whole wealth of information here for any wiki visitor to go do more research on. I was an OG member since 1998 myself.

Removed varification as the information has been here long enough to have been varified by all who asked on the above mentioned web sites for themselves.
 * Sorry, but that's not how it works. —Viriditas | Talk 10:19, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Well you have yet to provide anything to the contrary. If you do, then please show us a reference for it. As of now these additions with references contain information that can be varified by doing the work.

 * Please review WP:V and then reply. —Viriditas | Talk 23:29, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I know about it. That is why there are sources given. You will have to be specific about your trouble with this. So far no reason has been given by you as to why you think it is needs to be varified more than it needs to be. I am sorry but until you specify your problem and link it to a quote from WP:V we are not going to solve this are we?

 * You may know about it, but you haven't read it. Do not revert this page again.  I have been specific.  Read above: Please provide at least two reliable sources. —Viriditas | Talk 00:33, 7 April 2006 (UTC) —Viriditas | Talk 09:56, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Now you have a started a revert war. Your claim that I have not read WP:V is unfounded. You can not possibly know if I have read it or not. It is impossible for you to know. This is the kind of problem you have started here. I have tried to be nice and I have done mostly everything you asked to be cooperative. You are now refusing to cooperate. I am sorry but you are making false claims and not much sense. You have more than two variefied sources above. You have not used any of them. There are three in total and much more. By the way it does not say in WP:V to quote more than one source. That is something you yourself have invented. Maybe you need to read WP:V and not me.

And one more thing. You are being very selective. You have used the sources I added to this article to make your own new additions to the article and yet you don't think your own additions need to be varified do you? I gave you the sources for the FAQ database and backups. That is the work I put in. It is just silly that you are manipulating the sources that way. I actually believe the biggest problem here is your choice to merge OG and HS. You can not do that without including the ownership dispute. And by the way, if I dont want to sign here, then that is my right. It is just good pratice to do so, but absolutely not manditory.
 * WP:RS —Viriditas | Talk 11:38, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Viriditas is now saying that the above is not true without doing any research. One day old OGers like myself will come in here and correct his own personal failings with the truth. The above is absolutely correct and can be varified by looking at the links and asking questions on their forums. I have included all the names (correctly ~shabang~ not just shabang as Viriditas edited, even though Viriditas never heard the name before). (→Ownership dispute)
 * WP:CIV —Viriditas | Talk 12:17, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Note to Wiki Mods. Viriditas is now creating his own private article and removing all input from others because he wants it his way. It has now become his own private Wiki article. I will make one last revert to the facts before they are replaced again with his own personal opinions.
 * WP:3RR —Viriditas | Talk 12:01, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Fine. My patients to deal with this is long-term, and will be, because I support facts. I think the one person throwing the article into disrepute is yourself because you do not believe the OG dispute claims are varified. Now you would do better to come out altogether and say they are wrong! This would be a much better position for you to be in rather than putting yourself on the border just to cover your actions when the facts turn out to be true. Which they are. So your position needs to be clarified. You have the sources. You have even used the sources. I give you one week to find something wrong with it. Then I am reverting it back to a factual article (which it is right now).

 * There are standards for notable, self-published sources. Please review WP:V. —Viriditas | Talk 12:54, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Please don't try to educate me on how to use Wiki TYVM. It is a very ignorant and a petty way to avoid the topic you have been confronted with. Now read up and do the work which you wont do now for over a month since the article and references (which you are using in parts) first appeared here. How hard can this possibly be for you?
 * Please review burden of evidence. —Viriditas | Talk 13:36, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

You are too ignorant to deal with. At this stage you are blantantly rude. It is obvious you don't give a flying damn about the History of OG or HS. Leave.
 * Please do not make personal attacks on other people. Wikipedia has a policy against personal attacks. In some cases, users who engage in personal attacks may be blocked from editing by admins or banned by the arbitration committee. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Please resolve disputes appropriately. Thank you. —Viriditas | Talk 13:43, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

07:58, 3 March 2006 Viriditas (+internet archive) <-- This is an example of Viriditas using and adding one the same sourse materials (from http://growfaq.marijuana.com/) that Viriditas also has some sort of a problem with.
 * You appear to be confused. The link in question was a backup of the website on archive.org.  It has nothing to do with the claims you are attempting to include in the article.  I'm not sure why you are having trouble understanding this fact. —Viriditas | Talk 03:35, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

RfC
Have a cuppa coffee folks ;-) Woever the registered owner of the site is, that's who owns it - unless someone can produce some legal reference that states otherwise. Just someone saying 'BS, my friend Billy-bob owns it' can't cut it - theres' got to be some kind of legal document or filing which can be used as a reference that the legitimacy of the registered owner is being contested, or that the registered owner is not really the owner. Bridesmill 15:14, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi Bridesmill. You are actually not correct. The registered owner of the site is the person who owns the .com name. If I decided to own www.wikipediaforme.com and ported www.wikipedia.com contents into it that does not mean I own the contents. Anyway I did not say who was right or wrong, only that the dispute exists. That the dispute is there and how the dispute came about with historical reference to OG, HS and the dispute.

 * Agree with Bridesmill. Removing content until dispute can be cited with a reliable source. —Viriditas | Talk 20:51, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Then you are also mistaken. Owning a domain name does not mean that you automatically own the contents of the files served by that domain name's web host. I suggest you both go read up on the terms and agreement of the content you are allowed to upload on a web host.
 * Please review WP:RULES, and the links I've provided above. —Viriditas | Talk 21:46, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Your links are not in dispute. Never where. Also you are making far too many mistakes to be taken seriously at this stage. Your latest claim that owning a domain name means that you own the contents also shows that you don't know what you are talking about. You have also used the exact same sources that you claim are in dispute. 07:58, 3 March 2006 Viriditas (+internet archive) for example.
 * Hi, you seem to be confused about WP:V and WP:RS. If you need help, you can add the "helpme" template on your talk page.  The edit you refer to (07:58, 3 March 2006 Viriditas)  has nothing to do with this discussion. Please do not continue to remove unsigned signatures and violate the 3RR on the main page.  The article talk pages follow the guideline of WP:SIG to facillitate communication. —Viriditas | Talk 21:59, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I certainly am not confused. You have alread abused my talk page by editing it several times with the "helpme" alert. I have already informed several moderators of your abuse on that page and that I did not alert them. It is not your business to call help for me. The edit I refer to has everything to do with the topic. The same people who collected that database which you linked to the article are the same people who wrote http://growfaq.marijuana.com/ that you are ignoring. Besides that you have been given * History of Overgrow.com and Overgrow members on ICMAG forums and you have blantantly ignored the fact that is the home of OG members at the moment who anyone here can talk with. I do not have to sign anything if I do not want to. It is not mandatory. If I want to, I will. The point being, it is none of your business to attempt signing others work here. The reason why I can stay here debating this till the end of my time is because I know this is a factural event. Your bases for editing is founded on a personal belief that you just decided that you didn't agree with the facts. That is just a POV and not the historical record. I am in the right because I am stating the historical record and will see this through because of the facts and not personal opinions. Here is another 10 paged account of the history of OG http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=22255&page=1&pp=15&highlight=shabang I suppose you will just overlook that one too.
 * An external link to an archived website has nothing to do with this discussion, which is why I have suggested you are confused. This discussion is about the citation and content that you are using in the article, a source that does not appear to meet Wikipedia standards for inclusion. This has been explained to you.  I am in agreement with Bridesmill.  If the dispute isn't notable or reliably sourced, it doesn't belong here.  See also WP:NOT. —Viriditas | Talk 22:27, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
 * What do you mean an external link to an archived website has nothing to do with this discussion? You have even quoted such in your sources! You are not going to be able to avoid the facts as they are put in front of your face. Here try and ignore this next link where you actually see TOG (team Overgrow) talking about this very topic! http://icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=383&page=7&pp=15 Going to blantantly ignore that one also? This stuff has been there for over a month now but you didn't do the work. Easy to just edit a wiki page and call yourself right isn't it? Get with the facts. How can you avoid this now! Since this article is no longer controversial I am removing the tag. It is just a matter of either rejecting these facts or accepting them. it? Get with the facts. How can you avoid this now!
 * I'm sorry, but there appears to be a communication problem. When you are ready to discuss the reason this article is on RFC, please feel free to reply.  Until then, please remain civil. —Viriditas | Talk 22:48, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

There is no communication problem. It is all before your eyes and you are refusing to read any of it. We have Team Overgrow talking about the ~RC~ ~shabang~ dispute now on the record. That is TOG talking about this disputed topic that you have rejected and edited and removed and censored from the wiki reading public. The only record I do not have is a copy of the actual debate between ~RC~ and ~S~ from the OG record that was edited by ~RC~ and is currently unavailable because ~RC~ claims to have had OG shutdown. In the meantime the facts are before your eyes, right in front of you, with TOG talking about this topic that you are rejecting because it shows that you are in the wrong. QED.
 * Clearly there is a communication problem, if one of two people can't communicate with the other. Part of the problem seems to be your refusal to follow Wikipedia policies. I'm willing to work with you within the policy framework.  —Viriditas | Talk 02:04, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Absolute Complete Defacement of Discussion
Viriditas has edited out large chunks of the discussion here and removed my comments. Viriditas removed sections dealing with the topic. I am no longer going to contribute to this article. I will leave this warning here and when the moderators finally come around to see what has been done they can make a judgement on this issue. The fact is that Viriditas has removed significant parts of this discussion which should be available to the general public. It is a fully blown censorship of the views of others. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Simonapro (talk • contribs).

 * Please review Help:Talk page, WP:TPG, WP:REFACTOR, and WP:RPA. As I have repeatedly informed you, "I" am not the topic of this discussion.  Also, please stop making personal attacks in the subject headers (which I removed).  Thank you. —Viriditas | Talk 10:06, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Article now controlled by one editor
The article now contains only the bias of Viriditas alone who is controlling the article with only their own input. Viriditas also removed the warning symbol put up by Polotet. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Simonapro (talk • contribs) 11:33, 22 April 2006
 * I'm sorry you feel that way. In regards to the "warning symbol", the dispute tag was added by me, not Polotet.  Polotet merely reverted to my version.  Since I was the one who added the tag, and since the disputed content has been removed, there is no longer any need for the tag.  If, however, you would like to add the tag based on a dispute that you perceive, then please describe the dispute in a new section.  Note, I have asked you several times to do just this, but instead you continue to focus on me, instead of the article.  Please also note that your disagreement with Wikipedia policies may not qualify as a content dispute. —Viriditas | Talk 03:25, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Ownership dispute
I would like to help Simonapro flesh out his argument, and for the purposes of NPOV, I will attempt to argue both sides (as we should all do), essentially writing for the enemy: On March 10, 2006, Simonapro announced that the ownership of Overgrow site content is in dispute. Simonapro quoted an Overgrow.com admin with the handle of "~shabang~" as a source, as well as a published book author by the name of Jorge Cervantes. It seems that it would be reasonable to make mention of an ownership dispute in the article if Mr. Cervantes is a reliable source, and if he has published this information on a reliable site and/or in a print medium. Can Simonapro cite a source that meets the requirements of WP:RS, WP:V, and WP:NOR? If so, this information should be included in the article. —Viriditas | Talk 06:42, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * You can't read. Cervantes has nothing to do with the Overgrow content ownership dispute between ~shabang~ and ~RC~. The sources I gave where from ~shabang~ AND Overgrow administration/Moderators. You deleted the referenced sources from here. Cervantes does not own Overgrow and is not a moderator or administrator there. Anyone can print anything in a print medium. Even I could that. You can not even follow your own guidelines as to what a source is. Obviously you have had no clue all along and still don't. The sources are clearly those involved with the day to day running of Overgrow since its exception. If you had bothered to do the work you would know that. You censor, you manipulate sources, you merge without any debate and you hinder the article. We are now just leaving the dispute symbol on the article. You have even been taking that down also. We have alerted mods here to this document and when they see it they will probably have lots of things to say. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Simonapro (talk • contribs) 11:38, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * You referred to Cervantes in your original post, and I linked to it above. As it stands, he is the only credible source you have discussed so far. When you are ready to address the issues, please reply to them. In other matters, you were politely asked to sign your posts, refrain from personal attacks, use edit summaries, and only add dispute tags when you have made the case for such a dispute.  —Viriditas | Talk 11:47, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * (1)You where told not to revert my talk page by another moderator. You have reverted it again.
 * (2)You have removed Polotet's article warning. 23:56, 20 April 2006 Polotet (no opinion on content dispute, but while it runs let's keep a dispute tag on)
 * (3)Yes Cervantes was referenced in my post but is not the subject of the overgrow content ownership. You havent read the sources.
 * (4)The credible source is NOT just anyone who can publish a book. Even I can do that with money. The credible source are the administrators/Owners/Moderators of Overgrow who you ignored. Cervantes joined OG in 2004. The whole OG community is on ICMAG.COM but you ignored it. The OG database you use, and link to, was ,and is still, maintained by the same source. You are completely ignoring the historical record from the horse's mouth. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Simonapro (talk • contribs) 12:34 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Your page was reverted for archival purposes. Blanking of talk pages during current discussion is not appropriate behavior and is frowned upon.  You were politely asked to use sigs, edit summaries, refrain from personal attacks, and to follow Wikipedia policies regarding sources.  In all instances, you have refused, and an archival version of your talk page was linked to demonstrate your refusal to follow policy. For the third time, Polotet never made an article warning; he reverted to my version in which I placed the dispute tag.  I suggest you learn about how Wikipedia works before you make accusations.  Since I placed the original dispute tag, and since I removed the content that led to the dispute, there is no reason for the dispute tag to be placed on the article unless you give a good reason.  So far, you have refused to give a reason, other than to dispute Wikipedia policy regarding sources; this is not the place for policy disputes.  I suggest you take your policy dispute to the appropriate talk pages.  Again, this has been explained to you.  Your understanding of what a credible source is or isn't is at odds with Wikipedia policies.  Please take your policy dispute to the policy talk pages. —Viriditas | Talk 12:48, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

(1)The work was not archived by you. There is no archive on this page. An archive is not deleting and censoring a discussion because you feel like it. You deleted and censored the discussion. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_archive_a_talk_page for how to make an archive. (2)23:56, 20 April 2006 Polotet (no opinion on content dispute, but while it runs let's keep a dispute tag on) DISPUTE IS STILL ON! There is a dispute so dispute tags stays. (3)Credible source of Overgrow.com information you reject are the administrators/moderators/owners of Overgrow. (4)Overgrow administrators/moderators/owners are the source. See ICMAG.com where they are right now.

Also I am very suspect of your forwarding Jorge Cervantes as "the only credible source you have discussed so far." This indicates that you are willing to accept a self-published writer who has made a deal with ~RC~ to publish Overgrow contents for mediation of the ~RC~ ~shabang~ dispute. Your bias is evident. You manipulate what a source is (a self-published writer is better than the horse's mouth according to you). You do not want any pre-~RC~/Overgrow history talked about on here. Overgrow was around before ~RC~ or Cervantes were a username on the boards. It was around long before Heaven's Stairway paid for a banner there or Cervantes asked OG members for photographs for his book. This is all very wrong historical manipulation from you. The censorship of the discussion page was the last straw. This needs to be brought to the attention of OG users immediately. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Simonapro (talk • contribs) 16:51, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Hi. You seem to be having trouble understanding basic Wikipedia policies.  Please use the "helpme" tag on your talk page to receive help.  Regarding Cervantes, he appears to be a paid, published writer who has worked under an editor (High Times), and this meets WP:RS in part, whereas the material you linked to does not have any verifiable attribution, and does not meet the guidelines for WP:RS.  I don't know anything about any "self-published" books, nor do I have any opinion or feelings about this site, the authors, or any of the people mentioned.  I am merely trying to uphold Wikipedia policies.  I've repeatedly asked you to demonstrate how your link meets Wikipedia standards, but you refuse to do it, preferring to engage in personal attacks instead. —Viriditas | Talk 20:29, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Explanation of dispute
Simonapro, please explain your reasons in this section of the talk page, as to why you added the dispute tag. Please explain your reasons without referring to specific editors and making personal attacks. Provide only reasons for why you think the neutrality and factual accuracy of the current article are disputed. As it stands, your claim of a content dispute is based on using unreliable sources to support this content, originally added to the article on of 26 March 2006. In support of this content, you wrote: ''There are many people who can validate that this dispute over OG ownership exists if you ask around the popular cannabis forums. I am quite sure this ownership problem is OG public knowledge.  In response to a verification request posted by me on 6 April, you wrote: This has been verified and the dispute is very real. The best reference is the one below because it is the most recent but all the major cannabis web sites have confirmed that this information is correct. Here is the new edit.''  Your "best reference" was a link to growfaq.marijuana.com, where the content in question appeared, unattributed and written anonymously on a website that does not meet the basic standards for WP:RS. To quote Wikipedia policy:
 * Personal websites, weblogs (blogs), bulletin boards, and Usenet posts...are not acceptable as sources. (See also: What counts as a reputable publication?)
 * Rare exceptions may be when a well-known professional person or acknowledged expert in a relevant field has set up a personal website using his or her real name
 * Posts to bulletin boards and Usenet, or messages left on blogs, should not be accepted as primary or secondary sources
 * A personal website or blog may be used only as a primary source, i.e., when we are writing about the subject or owner of the website (so long as the information is notable, not unduly self-aggrandizing, and not contradicted by reliable, third-party published sources). But even then we should proceed with great caution and should avoid relying on information from the website as a sole source. This is particularly true when the subject is controversial, or has no professional or academic standing. For example, a Wikipedia article about an unreliable newspaper should not — on the grounds of needing to give examples of their published stories — repeat any claims the newspaper has made about third parties, unless the stories have been repeated by credible third-party sources. (See also: Verifiability)

Hence, my request for two reliable sources on 17 April, which you refused to fulfill, however you have offered cannabisculture.com and icmag.com for corroboration, but again, those sites don't appear to meet the standards for WP:RS. If you can show that they do, you may be able to salvage some content, but for more than a month you have refused to demonstrate a case for inclusion. Most importantly, ''it is not the job of Wikipedians to do original research. We report what reliable publications publish. We do not investigate, or in any other way attempt to evaluate, whether they are right or wrong. See No original research.''

Since you disagree with Wikipedia policies regarding unreliable sources, and since the dispute appears to be about your repeated insertion of unreliable sources, you seem to have a policy dispute, not a content dispute. If you do not explain your reasons for adding the dispute tag, it will be removed. Please take your policy dispute to the appropriate policy talk page, such as Wikipedia talk:Reliable sources, as this is not the place for it. —Viriditas | Talk 20:56, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

 * On the topic of personal attacks:
 * I don't personally attack people. I have never done it on wiki and I dont intend to start. There is nothing to gain from it. I do call for an immediate investigation as to why you have censored this discussion page though. Your claim that you where archiving has been debunked as it did not meet wiki criteria for archiving http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_archive_a_talk_page I also call for an immediate investigation as to why you called me a troll. See last statement of http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Heaven%27s_Stairway&oldid=49377309 I have never personally attacked you. You have said a number of times you are being attacked but you have not been. Your activity here is being questioned though as you are engaged in a full out blantant attempt at censorship. I have never censored anything here.

 * On the topic of the dispute tag:
 * I agree with Polotet who on 23:56, 20 April 2006 Polotet (no opinion on content dispute, but while it runs let's keep a dispute tag on). So the dispute is still running, hence let's keep a dispute tag on. The dispute is far from over.

 * On the topic of rejecting wiki policy:
 * I do not disagree with wiki policy and never have done. You just reject that claim that the Overgrow administration, currently self proclaimed refugees on icmag.com at http://www.icmag.com/ic/forumdisplay.php?f=118, fall under the category of a personal website source and should not be considered a primary sources. You are wrong. Since the topic is Overgrow.com then the administrators of overgrow.com do fall under the category of a personal website source and are very much a primary source. In fact, they are the source greater than all the other sources. They used to run Overgrow.com!

 * You also have not explained why Overgrow.com article has been merged with HS article. Just because HS foots the bill on a domain name does not mean that he owns site content. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Simonapro (talk • contribs) 22:04, 23 April 2006.
 * Please review WP:NPA, as you have made many personal attacks and continue to make them. I will provide you with a link to all the personal attacks you have made so you can understand the policy.  Your statement, "I have never personally attacked you", shows that you don't understand the policy.  Your talk page was archived when you blanked it, since the last edit preserved the comments in full, in the page history.  To view the archive, I merely view the edit, like this.  As for trolling, I think this talk page speaks for itself.  Regarding the dispute tag, it has been explained to you many times now, that Polotet reverted to my version, the version which I added the dispute tag, the dispute tag that you removed. .  Since you have reverted back to my version, without describing a dispute, your edit does not make any sense.  You are required to explain your reasons for the dispute.   In regards to your comment about policy, the "administrators of overgrow.com" does not count as a reliable source in a controversial dispute about site ownership.  You will need to cross-reference and corroborate.  A personal website or blog may be used only as a primary source, i.e., when we are writing about the subject or owner of the website - well that's the problem isn't it?  We don't have a legitimate source that documents the ownership dispute, only an unreliable source that makes the claim of ownership.  Should the mention of an ownership dispute be made, and how?  For example, I actually wrote a paragraph about how the name "Overgrow" originated with Marc Emery, and I theorized that the people of Overgrow were paying deliberate homage to Emery's use and concept of the word "Overgrow". ("B.C.'s Prince of Pot fights extradition on drug charges". The Seattle Times. Oct 25, 2005: pB1.)  According to The New York Times, Emery wants "to overgrow the governments" that punish cannabis users by producing cannabis plants all over the world, effectively making it impossible for governments to eradicate or control it.   Whether or not Emery is actually involved, I haven't a clue.  The point is, I can't publish this information on Wikipedia because it is original research, and there's just no way to verify it. —Viriditas | Talk 22:50, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * You have never substantiated any claim that I attack you. I have substantiated a claim that you attack me. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Heaven%27s_Stairway&oldid=49377309 You called me a troll at the bottom of the page. This a serious violation of WP:NPA and can result in a users account being suspended or removed. You are also censoring the discussion page and not archiving which uses proper procedure as per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_archive_a_talk_page for how to make an archive. Thus since you are not following wiki archiving procedure you can not explain the deleting of a discussion here as archiving. Why are you deleting the discussion?
 * Your opinion of what trolling is remains an opinion and does not give you any right to call me a troll. That is a violation of WP:NPA . Polotet never said his dispute tag was a revert to be left to your decision to remove when you feel like it. Polotet clearly states leaving it up as long as there is a dispute. There is a dispute. It stays up. The "administrators of overgrow.com" are the primary sources when the topic is overgrow.com. I have quoted primary sources. The horses' mouth. Have a nice day. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Simonapro (talk • contribs) 23:04, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Some of your personal attacks can be found here. According to Internet troll,  "a troll is someone who comes into...an online discussion forum, and posts inflammatory, rude or offensive messages designed to annoy and antagonize the existing members or disrupt the flow of discussion", for example, repeatedly removing signatures from every unsigned comment for days on end.  In response to your dispute claim: "Wikipedia articles should not depend on primary sources but rather on reliable secondary sources who have made careful use of the primary-source material. Most primary-source material requires training to use correctly, especially on historical topics. Wikipedia articles may use primary sources only if have been published by a reliable publisher e.g. trial transcripts published by a court stenographer, or historic documents that appear in edited collections. We may not use primary sources whose information has not been made available by a reliable publisher." WP:RS. —Viriditas | Talk 23:42, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Assuming Good Faith and the History of Overgrow.com
Anybody who assumes good faith would have looked into the matter of the history of overgrow by simply contacting Team Overgrow (TOG) on Icmag.com http://www.icmag.com/ic/forumdisplay.php?f=118/ and asking them about the history of Overgrow.
 * A month ago you wrote, "The ownership of OG contents is in dispute. There should be full article devoted entirely to the largest cannabis cultivation web site on the net." That seems like a reasonable proposition if it is true. If the website is notable, there should be a way to verify your claim.  As it stands this article is about the company that used to host Overgrow, is it not?  Why can't I find any evidence for an ownership dispute?  We already have a link to The Medical Garden (MedicalGarden.org, GardensCure.Com) which refers to OG in the past tense, and calls itself "The Gardens Cure", which is funded by the "Global Sativa Corporation" (marijuana.com).  So, the content is now distributed by a new host, under a new name.  At this point, the current ownership dispute claim is irrelevant.  I see nothing wrong with just describing the facts; the old content survived the shutdown and seizure of hempqc.com and has a new host.  Fill in the rest. —Viriditas | Talk 14:44, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

By doing the article research on the history of Overgrow will require a whois history at which point the insertion of HS becomes evident as part of the historical record and the question is then asked, who was administrating Overgrow before that and what became of that administrator and did the move go well. In fact the history of Overgrow is not the best as there was lots of problems over site content ownership. My original article summed it all up in a few lines but a full article will develop into those points if the work is done. Simonapro 19:15, 26 April 2006 (UTC)]
 * I understand. However, WP:AGF does not apply to sources, but to editors on Wikipedia. When it comes to sources, we trust, but verify.  —Viriditas | Talk 09:56, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

In good faith tell us more about your research you are doing on the history of OG. Simonapro 16:28, 28 April 2006 (UTC)]

Verifiability, not Truth
The problem Here, as I see it, is that what Simonapro is saying may be completely correct, but, Viriditas needs a source to prove the statements. This in itself creates further problems, as not many "reliable sources" will document this conflict, but right now I am relying on Alias' in a Forum to get back to me. --Irishpunktom\talk 09:33, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

The disputed Text
Now, Which of these staements are fully under dispute, and which can be re-added?

 * Overgrow.com (also known as OG) was created by the Internet persona known as "shabang" in 1998 following a dialogue on weedbase.com.
 * where is this? This is from the Wayback machine for Weedbase for early 1999 . Can you find this dialogue?  Was it in the form of PMs? - If so, we need to know how you know about it. Was it written somewhere, by another?

 * Some members from weedbase.com joined overgrow.com to form the initial OG community.
 * Should be easy to verify, I need links though.

 * Early contributions to the site involved the forums, an OG magazine cover story, search engine and a cannabis strain database, called "strainbase", owned by a third party Internet persona known as "Baudelaire".
 * Needs verification via the wayback machine too.

 * As membership increased, a grow FAQ was introduced in 2001 along with the karma members rating system.
 * First part needs verification.

 * In 2002 the owner of Heaven's Stairway, known as the Internet persona "RC", was asked by shabang to pay for the domain name using RC's billing address.
 * Important, needs to be verified. We needs "RC's" position on this, also "Shabangs".

 * Shabang disappeared from the forums only to resurface later with the claim that RC had ported the OG contents to another server and had the site contents hacked to prevent shabang from having admin access.
 * Also important, where is the forum thread which states this?

 * During this time RC put up a copyright notice claiming ownership of the entire site contents. RC sold these rights to High Times writers. Shabang maintains that OG was stolen by RC.
 * We need sources for these statements.

Thanks --Irishpunktom\talk 09:33, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Also, do these alias' have real names, and if not, is that because they fear Prosecution, etc?

Hi Tom, I would like to be able to answer your questions but I am having difficulty actually answering your points without Viritidas moving my answers into his own section. Please advise. Simonapro 10:59, 28 April 2006 (UTC)]
 * There is nothing preventing you from answering Tom's points /below/ Tom's comments, like everybody else. If you feel that you must respond to a direct statement, simply copy it into your reply.  Please respect WP:EQ. —Viriditas | Talk 11:08, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Calling each other names does not help. I've still to hear anything back from the various E-Mail address' associated with the website over the few years. The Alias' in the forum that I've PM have not replied either. I am really looking for some source in relation to the history of the site. --Irishpunktom\talk 15:18, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/Forth Road Bridge/1

Forth Road Bridge

 * • [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Good_article_reassessment/Forth_Road_Bridge/1&action=watch Watch article reassessment page] • Most recent review
 * Result: delisted Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  17:53, 10 February 2018 (UTC)

This article passed GA over 10 years ago, but was kept by an earlier reassessment in 2009. Since then, the importance and nature of the bridge has been changed out of all recognition, firstly due to structural problems, and then to its replacement with the Queensferry Crossing. Consequently, the article has had a lot of recentism issues, and it now looks lop-sided, as well as requiring sources in places. These issues have been brought up on the talk page, but not much work has been done, and to be honest if I can't see an obvious commitment to fixing myself, and nobody else does it, I think it's better to delist the article now, with the possibility of it regaining GA status via a fresh review sometime later, when the issues have been resolved. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  16:56, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * As there have been no objections, and the main refimprove tag is still there, I am delisting. If I get a chance, I will work on the article and renominate it for GA. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  17:52, 10 February 2018 (UTC)

Who I am
I'm WWWWolf. I'm an admin on English Wikipedia. Instead of studying at the local university, I kind of mop around in Wikipedia. Well, I really try to study too.

What I'd like to see in Wikiversity
When and if Wikiversity moves to research side big time, here's some stuff I wish we would research.

Basically, the big problem is that a lot of stuff on these topics gets deleted from Wikipedia because that's based on hearsay and random users adding random bits of Stuff on the latest craze. The only logical conclusion is that it's not researched well enough. We need studies on these topics. We need them fast.

 * Internet culture and phenomena.
 * Computer games. Ludology is a young science. We need to do more of this stuff.
 * Machinima. See above.

The Game Description Project
Here's a great big philosophical question: What is a video game?

Wikipedia answers that question. Or at least they will continue to answer until some delete-happy source-demanding jackbooted horror monster comes along and deletes the whole lot.

Wikipedia has nice articles on various fundamental concepts of video gaming. Yet, here's the rub: all of it is crappily sourced, at least if you look at the strictest possible interpretation of Wikipedia's verifiability/reliable sources rules.

 * "A computer game is a computer-controlled game where players interact with objects displayed on a screen for the sake of entertainment."

Source?

Wikipedia folks wants sources. Would be extremely cool if some experts of computer games would gather around in Wikiversity, and then tell with peer-reviewed authority that a computer game is a computer-controlled game where players interact with objects displayed on a screen for the sake of entertainment, so that we don't need to go look for some stupid book from God knows where that explains this obvious fact to everyone.

We need to explain the obvious. We have precious few publications as it is that do this fundamental stuff of defining the computer and video games.

Interesting article mention's LiNK
This rather interesting Guardian article on Shin Dong-hyuk's life and his escape looks like it may be useful ?? EdwardLane (talk) 13:37, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

LiNK's Limitations/Criticisms
The article omits any discussion about the effectiveness of LiNK's operations. As a "grassroots" organization, the individual fundraising efforts are small and segmented. LiNK has been able to raise a significant amount of funds this way, but there should be discussion about how the central organization can more effectively equip and support individual efforts. Additionally, LiNK mainly focuses on changing the lives of individual people, but it's effect on a larger scale have yet to come to fruition. Obviously this is a complicated process that will take time, but LiNK's focus on "research and strategy" is not as robust as it's fundraising efforts. Views from experts, on how LiNK's efforts abroad can actually help facilitate change within in the country would be beneficial to this article. And as with any non-profit, a detailed breakdown of their financials will be key in determining the legitimacy of this organization. Having a brief overview of how LiNK's money is used would greatly add to this article. Stephanieham1 (talk) 15:33, 1 October 2013 (UTC)

 * LiNK put up their 2012 financials recently and pages 27-30 have a quick breakdown of their cash flow: http://libertyinnorthkorea.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/LiNK_2012_AnnualReport.pdf
 * <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 23:01, 18 October 2013 (UTC)

Point of View
This article sounds more like a copy+paste of the organization's website than a neutral description of what it is and what it does. It even links to the Facebook page and blog under "Publications" rather than important publications themselves, which makes it seem like an advertisement. The diction is curiously reliant on positive adjectives and many of the facts presented are not cited except by the organization itself. Can I add a POV tag? (Sorry, haven't used Wikipedia in a while and I'm trying to get back into it!) Pferrete (talk) 14:04, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I wrote this on your wall as well, but if you (or anyone else) is able to give feedback, it would be most appreciated. I currently have a peer review request pending, so if you could do a peer review or edit the article as needed, that would be great. You can add tags as well, but it would be preferable to simply edit the text in order to make it more neutral and comprehensive. Thanks for your interest! Tonystewart14 (talk) 02:27, 18 September 2014 (UTC)

Suggestions for improvement
I've done some overhauling of this article, and see two main sections that need work. The History section needs citations from the last sentence in the first paragraph of "Early years" to the first sentence of the fourth paragraph of the same section. If anyone can find sources and add citations, that would be great. Also, the "Raising awareness" section appears listy due to the fact that there are a lot of campaigns and videos, but only a couple sentences for each. If someone could add more content and/or photos (that meet Wikipedia's rules on copyright) that would also be helpful. Tonystewart14 (talk) 22:00, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

Burn Brigade

Burn Brigade is an album by baritone saxophonist Nick Brignola which was recorded in 1979 and released on the Bee Hive label.

Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated, "Three of the greatest baritone saxophonists of the post-1970 period teamed up for this jam-session date ... The music is often quite exciting (the horns battle each other to a draw) and is easily recommended to fans of the bebop baritone sax".

Personnel

 * Nick Brignola, Ronnie Cuber (tracks 1, 3 & 5), Cecil Payne (tracks 1, 3 & 4) – baritone saxophone
 * Walter Davis Jr. – piano (tracks 1 & 3-5)
 * Walter Booker – bass
 * Jimmy Cobb – drums

Good Bye, So Long

"Good Bye, So Long" is a song written by Ike Turner. It was originally released by R&B duo Ike & Tina Turner in 1965.

Release
"Good Bye, So Long" was released as a single on Modern Records in May 1965. It reached No. 31 on Billboard 's R&B Singles chart and No. 108 on Bubbling Under The Hot 100. Tina Turner promoted the record on Shindig! in August 1965. The B-side "Hurt Is All You Gave Me" received a 4 star rating from Billboard. Both songs appeared on the compilation album The Soul of Ike & Tina, released on Kent Record in 1966. After the success of "River Deep – Mountain High" overseas, Stateside Records released the record as a single in the UK in October 1966.

A different version of "Good Bye, So Long" later appeared on Ike & Tina Turner's 1970 album Workin' Together. They performed a live version of the song in the 1971 film Taking Off. That year, it was released as a single on BYG Records in France with "It's Crazy Baby" as the B-side track.

Critical reception
The single received positive reviews.

Cash Box (May 22, 1965): "This hard driving rock-R&B number could burn up the charts. Ike and Tina Turner, no strangers to hitsville are already making noise with this one."

Evening Post (October 22, 1966): "A standout number from the Ike and Tina review. Exciting lead voice of indeterminate sex, shimmering gospel calls from the Ikettes and a strong fast band backing. The record’s pre-Spector Ike and Tina production, but is commercial enough to sell."

Cover versions

 * Rock group the Inmates recorded a rendition for their 1989 album Fast forward
 * Singer-songwriter Chuck E. Weiss released a version on his 2006 album 23rd and Stout

Possible copyvio
Although it's just a short passage, the first paragraph under Early Years looks to have come from this bio, specifically the start of the second paragraph under Words and Actions. Autarch (talk) 18:49, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Derek Humphry posted that passage to wikipedia. Do you prefer he rewrite it (LOL). Or should it be specially cited? SilverLiner (talk) 00:25, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
 * OK - WP:COPYVIO says f the contributor is the copyright holder of the text, then even if it is published elsewhere under different terms, they have the right to post it here under CC-BY-SA and GFDL – the text may still be unsuitable for Wikipedia for another reason, but it is not a copyright violation. They may donate the material through the procedures described at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials and In both these cases, it is a good idea to make a note of the situation on the discussion page.

Talk:Michigan's 1st congressional district

Untitled

 * Something must have dramatically happened to Michigan District 1 in the early 90's. John Conyers has always represented the southeastern part of Michigan, namely Detroit. I've search and there seems to have been a redistricting based on the 90's census. However, I can't find any solid information. If I do, I'll be sure to make note in the article, since such a major change is noteworthy. --AugieWest 19:38 March 20, 2006 UTC

Whoever wrote this article has confused Michigan's 1st District in Detroit prior to redistricting with the old 11th District in Northern Michigan before redistricting. As the article states, Detroit is now the 14th and Northern Michigan is now the 1st. Mr. Clancy and Mr. Conyers both serve(d) in Detroit. The Northern Michigan district has been represented by Polish surnamed individuals. The errors on this page and tables are too numerous to correct and I cannot determine how to inform the author.

in its earliest incarnation this district included Monroe, and seems to also gave included Hillsdale. It existed in Detrout for decades before it became primarily Polish in character. The article needs a deeper historical perspective.John Pack Lambert (talk) 06:01, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Dmitri Bashkirov

Dmitri/Dimitri
There are plenty of google hits for both versions, but Dmitri (113,000) considerably outweights Dimitri (46,000). The lede starts out with Dmitri, but the article is titled Dimitri.

Plaza de Bolívar, Bogotá

The Bolívar Square (Spanish: Plaza de Bolívar or Plaza Bolívar) is the main square of the Colombian capital Bogotá. The square, previously called Plaza Mayor until 1821 and Plaza de la Constitución, is located in the heart of the historical area of the city and hosts a statue of Simón Bolívar, sculpted in 1846 by the Italian Pietro Tenerani, which was the first public monument in the city.

The history of Bolívar Square dates back to the pre-Columbian era, when the site was part of the Muisca Confederation. The first building on the square, a primitive cathedral, was constructed in 1539, a year after the foundation of the Colombian capital. During the Spanish colonial period, Bolívar Square was the stage for circus acts, public markets and bullfights. The square is surrounded by historical buildings; the Palace of Justice is located on the northern edge and the National Capitol borders the square in the south. The Primary Cathedral of Bogotá, next to the Archiepiscopal Palace with the monumental door cast by Ferdinando Marinelli Artistic Foundry and the Liévano Palace, seat of the mayor of Bogotá, are situated on the eastern and western side respectively.

Bolívar Square is a main tourist attraction in La Candelaria of Bogotá and the site for various manifestations and protests.

Description
Bolívar Square is bordered by the streets Calle 10 in the south and Calle 11 in the north and Carrera 7 and Carrera 8 in the east and west respectively. The area is approximately 13903 m2.

Pre-Columbian history

The history of Bolívar Square goes back to pre-Columbian times, when the area was inhabited by the Muisca. The indigenous Muisca, one of the four grand civilisations in the Americas, (together with the Inca, Aztec, Mayan, and Olmec civilizations) had an advanced knowledge of the solar and lunar cycles, represented in their complex lunisolar Muisca calendar. At various locations throughout their Muisca Confederation, the people constructed temples honouring their main deities; Sué, the Sun, and his consort Chía, the Moon.

Studies published about the Muisca astronomy in 2011 and 2017 by Julio Bonilla Romero, revealed that the Sun seen from the northeastern corner of Bolívar Square, at the June solstice rises exactly above Monserrate and at the December solstice above Guadalupe Hill. At the equinoxes of March and September, Sué rises from the valley between these two landmarks in the Eastern Hills of the city.

Colonial history
Conquistador Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada, after defeating the last zipa of the southern Muisca Tisquesusa in 1537, founded the city of Bogotá on 6 August 1538. Two other main expeditions reached the newly founded capital of the New Kingdom of Granada in 1539; led by Nikolaus Federmann from the east and Sebastián de Belalcázar from the south. The Spanish conquistadors established the first cathedral of the city on the northeastern corner of the Plaza Mayor.

From the city's founding, the square was the site of a pillory, "La Picota," where public punishments were conducted for nearly a half-century. It was replaced by a public water source in 1583.

During the early colonial period, the Plaza Mayor was a market square, where circus acts, civil, religious and cultural events, and until 1681 bullfights were held. In the same year, a fountain was built on the square. The first buildings were the primitive cathedral on the eastern side, followed by a three-story building constructed in 1545, two-story buildings on the northern and western edges for the principal merchants of the city in 1570, and between 1578 and 1582 the Real Audiencia building in the southwestern corner was built. In the southeastern corner of the square, the Mayor School of San Bartolomé, a secondary school institution, originally a university, was established by the Jesuits in 1604. The Holy Chapel was built at the end of the 17th century and the Viceroyalty Palace on the southeastern corner started construction in 1719 and was inaugurated in 1724. The Palace was completely burned down in 1776.

The present-day Primary Cathedral on the eastern side dates from the early 19th century; construction was started in 1807 by Domingo de Petres and finished in 1823.

Republican period
In the Vase House on the northeastern corner, now also known as the Museum of the 20th July, occurred the Call for Independence on 20 July 1810, the first independence attempt from the Spanish rule in Colombia. Camilo Torres Tenorio was executed on the square in 1816. The Bolívar Square was called Plaza de la Constitución (Constitution Square) from 1821 onwards, until the placement of the statue honouring Simon Bolívar in 1846. The National Capitol on the southern side, the seat of the Colombian Congress, was initiated in 1846 but due to the political instability of the country it was not finished until 1926. The French-style building located on the western side of the square known as the Liévano Palace, was constructed between 1902 and 1905. As of 1974 it is the seat for the Mayor of Bogotá.

Modern history
The Palace of Justice, a large international style building where the Supreme Court is housed, was first built in 1921 but was destroyed by a fire during the Bogotazo after the murder of Jorge Eliécer Gaitán in April 1948. A new palace was built on the north side of the Bolívar Square, but was destroyed again in November 1985 during the "Palace of Justice Siege", by both the guerrilla movement M-19 and the Colombian Army. The ruins of the building were kept untouched until 1989, when the government decided to construct a third (and current) building on the location, of which construction started in 1998.

Bolívar Square was proposed as a national monument on 26 October 1994 and received that status on 19 October 1995.

Bolívar Square has a long history as site for various protests. In July 1947, more than 100,000 people protested during the night. During a protest in 2016, students camped on the square.

GA Review
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.''

Reviewer: Lemonade51 (talk · contribs) 17:30, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Generally this is a well written and interesting article. No issues with sources, its reliability nor image use. Just minor prose:
 * "Jamila received mixed to positive reception in Indonesia" is this Jamila the character or the film? Given that you have not introduced the title's short form in the lead, this may confuse certain readers. I would suggest putting it in the first sentence, so "(released internationally as Jamila and the President, or in short form Jamila)," or just use the full name. You could even replace Jamila with "The film..."
 * Done.

 * "Back in the present day, outside the prison several groups are demanding that Jamila be given the death sentence." reads discombobulated. Either remove the comma and place it after 'prison' or rephrase it to something like "Back in the present day, several groups outside the prison are demanding that Jamila be given the death sentence"
 * Done.

 * "Jamila opens with narration from Jamila (Atiqah Hasiholan) that she is a victim of human trafficking" can be reworded to "Jamila opens with narration from Jamila (Atiqah Hasiholan) a victim of human trafficking..."
 * Done

 * Stage play ideally should be spaced
 * Done

 * "and Borneo over a period of six months; this research carried over into the film" semicolon is misued here, replace with comma
 * Period works too, right.

 * "Sarumpaet originally had difficulty finding sponsors" replace bold bit with 'he' to avoid repetitiveness
 * She - Done

 * Where is the citation for "A review for the Jakarta Globe notes that the film has a "spartan feel", as supported by its cinematography"?
 * Duplicated

 * "The film premiered at FX Plaza in Jakarta on 27 April 2009, with a wide release on 30 April" replace bold bit with three days later
 * Done.

Otherwise happy to pass. On hold. Lemonade51 (talk) 17:50, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Life
Kókai studied composition with János Koessler and piano with Emánuel Hegyi at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music. In 1933 he received his doctorate in musicology from the University of Freiburg where he wrote the thesis Franz Liszt in seinen frühen Klavierwerken (Franz Liszt in His Early Piano Works). Between 1926 and 1934 he was professor of piano at the National Conservatory, and from 1929 taught composition, aesthetics, music history, and pedagogy at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music. Kókai was director of music for the Hungarian Radio from 1945 to 1948.

Kókai was awarded the Ferenc Erkel Prize (Erkel Ferenc-díj) three times in recognition of his work (1952, 1955, 1956).

Rezső Kókai composed in a variety of forms including stage works, orchestral compositions, a violin concerto, chamber music, works for piano, as well as film and radio scores. His scores are largely published by Editio Musica Budapest and Zeneműkiadó Vállalat.
