Skeleton
Just a skeleton. The section on Newton's laws should be enough for the authors of the kinematics lesson to build upon without having to motivate Newton's laws all over again. The section on the forces of nature is, at this introductory point, meant as a motivational section only. It should also lay out the current state of physics, without getting into mathematical details, so as to entice the student as to what physics has done, and is currently exploring. Ron 13:25, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Second law
Hm...I have an issue with the Second Law. Wasn't it formulated in terms of the more general F = dp/dt ? --HappyCamper 05:02, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

 * The form given is the actual form used in the Principia, only modified slightly to more modern phrasing. You can read his original formulations yourself at the link provided to the original laws on the article page. What we call momentum today, Newton referred to as "quantity of motion", which he defined as "the product of the body and its motion", which is distilled into what is present on the article page now. It's not very streamlined, I just did this in a few minutes last night because of the horror of the first section. o_O Ron 21:33, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Intro?
Who on earth wrote this introduction? I suggest banning them right away to eliminate the possibility of polluting wikiversity with any more of their bilge. Sojourner001 18:01, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I was wondering this myself. Their contribution was the impetus that made me write the second section, as I didn't want the page thought a waste. Ron 21:27, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

I did my best to fix it up. --The Winged Self 23:24, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Nice job! I'm going to modify the way mass is defined a little, though, as it's possible for a body to decrease or increase in mass without the number of particles making up the body changing. --Ron 00:06, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Go right ahead. I didn't really put anything in about relativity and whatnot--The Winged Self 16:03, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Potential Energy Example
First of all I would not make the question negative, ask which form the potential energy can be transformed to. Second, I would argue that mass is a type of potential energy, although that may be above the level of the reader at this point. --mikeybikey 12:05, 6 September 2006

Scalers?
Shouldn't scalers be under Newtonian Physics? It is kinda hard to find it in the Vector section which may put people off.--Mickyfitz13 19:27, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Added scalars. --Ron 23:40, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Way over my head
This doesn't seem very friendly toward beginners. Could there at least be a section of things you should already know before reading this? The article links to coordinate systems, and their wikipedia articles. The whole reason I tried wikiversity is because I don't understand the wikipedia articles. Forgive me if I'm missing the whole essence of wikiversity, but I figured it would be a place to go learn something without needing a whole lot of background knowledge. suggestion added 21:09, 25 November 2010 by <IP_ADDRESS> --Abd 21:48, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
 * It is such a place, but far from every possible resource has been developed. You can help, in fact, by asking even "stupid questions." It is a fast way to get smart!
 * If you look again, start reading again, and as soon as you come to a statement you do not understand, particularly after a little thought, ask, you will be exposing the difficulties in the explanations, and setting up conditions for others to notice and fix them. This will represent you taking some level of responsibility for your own education, instead of expecting others to do it for you, anticipating all those questions. Some aren't good at that, but may be able to answer questions directly, others may be able to help make the explanations clearer.
 * The course, overall, suggests a knowledge of math that may not be completely necessary. A deep knowledge of physics does require at least a conceptual understanding of math, but there is a lot of understanding that doesn't require much.
 * I will start a page to use for those questions, see Introduction to physics/Questions. I suggest starting a section there for any section on the main page that you have a question about, then add your question. You may but need not sign and date the questions using four tildes ( ~ ). I highly recommend registering an account if you are going to regularly participate. This kind of interactive learning can be far deeper and more efficient than simply reading, and each question and answer may benefit others. --Abd 21:48, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

The questions
Ugh. Awful questions, awful explanations of answers. Without looking into exact usage, which isn't explained before asking the questions, the first question asks if displacement is a vector or a scalar. However, the ordinary meaning of displacement is a scalar. I did answer the question "correctly," but only by guessing correctly the intention. If I say that an object moved a foot, I'm not specifying which direction the object moved. It could be any direction. So it's a scalar. But if I say it was displaced to the west by a foot, I've specified the direction. Vector. I hated questions like this in school, where the more the student knows, the less obvious is the answer.... Those questions are testing to the teaching, bad idea. And they were not even that, they were testing to the authors' idea of the teaching.

I appreciate the effort put in, at the same time as I'm criticizing the work product... We will, I assume, improve these resources over time. --Abd 22:20, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

= September 14 =

Hanoverian succession
Sophia of Hanover reigned over Hanover in the early 18th century, and the heirs male of her body remained Kings of Hanover while also Kings of Great Britain and Kings of the United Kingdom. However, the accession of Victoria of the United Kingdom in 1837 ended the personal union, and some cousin or other male relative of Victoria (with lesser priority under UK succession rules) took the throne of Hanover due to its prohibition of female succession. How could Sophia be Electress if Victoria couldn't be Queen? Did the laws change during the 120 years of personal union, or were the circumstances different? Nyttend backup (talk) 17:30, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * She was Electress consort rather than Electress regnant. The ruling Elector of Hanover was her husband Ernest Augustus, Elector of Brunswick-Lüneburg (Brunswick-Luneburg being the official name of what we call "Hanover").  So she was heir to the throne of Great Britain while her husband was heir to the throne of Hanover.  Her son was heir to both due to succession laws differing in the two states.  In summary, she had no claim to Hanover, it wasn't her throne, it was her husband's.  -- Jayron 32 17:41, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

 * As I understand it, Sophia was only the electress consort, the wife of the reigning prince-elector, Ernest Augustus. She never reigned over Hanover herself, but because she was the daughter of Elizabeth Stuart and a Protestant, she went to the front of the British line of succession after the Act of Settlement 1701 had stricken out all the Catholics, and might have become our queen regnant had she outlived Queen Anne. Alansplodge (talk) 17:51, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

 * By the way, it was Victoria's uncle, another Ernest Augustus, who succeeded to the throne of Hanover (or Hannover as the Germans insist on calling it) and was followed in 1851 by his blind son, George who was indeed Victoria's first cousin. George messed-up badly by supporting the wrong side in the Austro-Prussian War (against the advice of his parliament) and Hanover was annexed by the Prussians who were quite good at that sort of thing. Alansplodge (talk) 18:05, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Oops, sorry; I should have read more than the introduction to Sophia's article. Sorry about that.  Nyttend backup (talk) 18:52, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Don't mention it; I hadn't realised what an unpleasant crew the later Hanoverians were; see Queen Victoria's Creepy Uncle for an amusing if unscholarly read. Alansplodge (talk) 20:05, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Strange btw. that the old and common german first name "Ernst" sometimes gets converted to "Ernest" in translation to english (see identical person: Ernest Augustus, Elector of Brunswick-Lüneburg, de:Ernst August (Hannover)). His successor however, the current Prince Ernst August of Hanover (born 1954), obviously has not been converted. Is this simply an error in the englisch wikipedia? --Kharon (talk) 06:22, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't say it's an error.  See WP:COMMONNAME.   For example, our article on the husband of Queen Victoria's eldest daughter is "Frederick III". <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 14:44, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Agreed see: Ernest Augustus: Duke of Cumberland & King of Hanover: A Brief Survey of the Man and His Times (1936). Alansplodge (talk) 23:53, 16 September 2017 (UTC)

Russian hat
Does anyone know the proper name for the type of cap that was/is often worn in former Soviet industrial facilities (even in offices)? Image: Thanks --<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 18:00, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * It's not unique to Russia. One can find them all over the world.  Their called scrub caps and they are common in many clean environments, from operating theaters to clean rooms.  You can see many examples here. -- Jayron 32 18:08, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Russian doctors wear an even taller one, almost like a chef. Google isn't telling me the answer though. Alansplodge (talk) 18:10, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

 * That Russian doctor is wearing a toque, commonly worn in food service (see here. More commonly part of the Chef's uniform, it is worn for the same reason as a scrub cap, so I don't see why a doctor wouldn't wear it.  It serves much the same purpose.  -- Jayron 32 18:13, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure I'd be happy if my doctor dressed as a chef, but it takes all sorts I suppose. Was the OP looking for a Russian name? Alansplodge (talk) 18:25, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Especially troubling if they cover the operating table in butcher paper. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 05:37, 16 September 2017 (UTC)

Template:SAS/doc

Usage
This is a typing short cut for linking to South African Navy ship articles named in the format "SAS President Kruger (F150)". Since Ship names are italicized in article text, linking to them in the usual manner means typing everything twice, such as SAS President Kruger (F150). This template halves that to SAS President Kruger (F150).

Formal usage

 * SAS Ship Name
 * SAS Ship Name (ID), where ID can be the hull number, launch year, or pennant number, as specified in the article title.

Examples
Last example could be used to link to ship index (disambiguation) page

Optional display control parameter
There is an optional third parameter that controls which pieces of text are displayed in the article. Its value is treated as a binary number and will display the corresponding "bits". So setting the 4's bit will display "SAS", setting the 2's bit will display the ship name, and setting the 1's bit will display the ID. If binary math isn't your thing, refer to these examples: N.B.: Be careful with the third parameter if not using the second parameter. In the Drakensberg example above, the "|3=2" means set the third parameter to a value of two, while the alternate syntax shows using a pair of pipes, "||2", to position the value two in the third parameter position.

Talk:Desmond Child

Not a very sturdy bio...
This reads more like promotional materials than an actual biography. I don't know that a normal encyclopedia would state that JS Bach remained "energetic". Nevermind that the time line is all skewed. KISS' "Dynasty" came out in the late 70's. The article then states that Paul Stanley handed Desmond's name over to Jon Bon Jovi. Okay, considering the debut Bon Jovi album didn't come out until 1984 or 1985, and considering that "Slippery When Wet" didn't come out until 1986 or 1987, it seems unlikely that Paul handed anything over to JBJ in such short succession.

The placement of the Aerosmith collaboration is curious as well. The article is written as if it came after the Bon Jovi collaboration. If I'm not mistaken, they happened at least concurrently, if not Aerosmith occuring first.

I personally don't care enough to change it. Maybe someone else does. This is just not a good example of what you want wikipedia to be, I think. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 20:05, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Why doesn't it mention his homosexuality? —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 14:54, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

An invitation for misuse...
I agree, this is not an appropriate page. It is filled with self-serving promotional stuff. It's an invitation for misuse of Wikipedia as career advancement. (As it happens, I once went to the article about me to correct something, and it felt creepy.)  Josephbyrd (talk) 06:50, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Agree. Its soft-focus Boils (talk) 21:08, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Agree this is not a well-done article, but how is it a "misuse of Wikipedia as career advancement" when the subject already has won several Grammys? A.T.S. in Texas (talk) 03:41, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

If it quacks like a duck ...
The reason this reads as 'self-serving promotional stuff' is because it is. Much of the content of this Wikipedia entry is plagiarised wholesale from Desmond Child's own website, itself linked at the bottom of the webpage. Not objective then, and probably in contravention of copyright to boot. Furry Canary (talk) 18:59, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Associated Act: Selena?
Selena is listed as an "Associated Act". I think this was meant to be "Selena Gomez" and not "Selena" who is an entirely different singer. Before I change it, just wanted to see if there was a connection between Desmond and Selena that I don't know about? BugSwat (talk) 00:47, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

Ambiguous line

 * The song "A Ray of Hope", written by Don Paul Yowell, was recorded by Child as a tribute to his younger brother, Joey, who died in January 1991 of AIDS-related complications.

I can't tell if it means Joey was Don's brother or Desmond's brother. --<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 21:11, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

Roy Taylor (tennis)

Roy Taylor (1883–1934) was an Australian tennis player and also represented Australia at lacrosse. He was a stockbroker by profession. He won the South Australian State singles championship in 1912, 1913 and 1919. Taylor made his debut at the Australasian Championships in 1910 (losing in round one to Harry Parker). In the 1913 semi finals, the big serving Taylor led Harry Parker 5-1 in the third set (sets were 1-1) when he sprained his ankle. Although Taylor managed the cling on to take the third set, he lost the next two easily. In 1914 Taylor lost in the quarter-finals to Rupert Wertheim. In 1919 Taylor led Gerald Patterson two sets to 0 in round two before having to retire. In 1920 Taylor lost in the semis to Pat O'Hara Wood. Taylor died suddenly while sitting at home with his family in 1934 aged 51.

Spanish/Tú-usted

In Spanish, as in many languages, there are two ways of addressing people, one of them familiar and the other formal. In English this is achieved by the use of first names or last names.

Tú is used for people with whom you're familiar. For example, friends and acquaintances would be referred to as tú. So would children, pets, and, usually, all family members.

Usted, which is more formal, is used for people older than you, authority figures, strangers, and people you are meeting for the first time. In parts of Colombia usted is widely used, even among friends.

 * Plural
 * In most of Spain the plural of tú is vosotros and the plural of usted is ustedes.
 * In Andalusia and all of Spanish America, the plural of tú is ustedes, i.e., plural second person doesn't differentiate between familiar and formal form of address.

* Depends a lot on the country

Chris Landreth

Chris Landreth (born August 4, 1961) is an American animator working in Canada, best known for his work on the 2004 film Ryan. He has made many animated films since the mid-1990s, including The End, Bingo, The Listener, Caustic Sky: A Portrait of Regional Acid Deposition, and Data Driven The Story Of Franz K.

Life and career
After being an engineer for years, Landreth quit and began a second career as an animator. He received a BS (1984) in general engineering and an MS (1986) degree in theoretical and applied mechanics at the University of Illinois. Three years following, he experimented in fluid mechanics research, until he made baby steps into the world of computer animation. In 1994, he was hired to define, test, and sometimes even abuse computer graphics software products. Such products include "movie Grade" software, not limited to but including programs, such as Maya, from the Toronto-based animation firm, Alias (formerly Alias|wavefront, now owned by Autodesk).

This resulted in the productions of The End and Bingo. The End was nominated in 1996 for an Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film. Afterward, he met Ryan Larkin, a renowned animator in the 1960s and 1970s, who had recently fallen into a spiral of excessive drinking, cocaine abuse, and homelessness. This resulted in the 2004 production of Ryan, which won an Oscar in 2005.

Landreth's 2009 film The Spine won the Best of the Festival award at the Melbourne International Animation Festival. Produced by the National Film Board of Canada in association with Copperheart Entertainment, C.O.R.E. Digital Pictures and Seneca College, The Spine depicts a man who's physically and figuratively spineless and the breakdown of his marriage.

Subconscious Password was his third with the NFB, Seneca College and Copperheart Entertainment. It won the best short film prize at the Annecy animation Festival 2013.

In 2016, he created the animated vignette Be Cool for the NFB satirical public service announcement series, Naked Island.

Landreth is currently an artist in residence at the Dynamic Graphics Project of the University of Toronto. He is working on a feature-length adaptation of Hans Rodionoff, Enrique Breccia and Keith Giffen's graphic-novel biography of H.P. Lovecraft.

Landreth's films Ryan, The Spine and Subconscious Password were included in the Animation Show of Shows.

Landreth is a master with The Beijing DeTao Masters Academy (DTMA), a high-level, multi-disciplined, application-oriented higher education institution in Shanghai, China.

"Psychorealism"
Landreth uses standard CGI animation in his work, with the added element of what he calls Psychorealism. This often puts a surrealist styling into his work, notably The End, Bingo, The Spine, and Ryan. For instance, in Ryan, people's psychological traumas are represented by twisted, surreal lacerations and deformities. As people depicted in the film get distraught, their faces distort. At one time in the interview, Ryan gets so upset he literally flies apart.

Psychorealism is a style first put into words by Landreth to refer to what Karan Singh described as "the glorious complexity of the human psyche depicted through the visual medium of art and animation."

Graphic techniques in game production

Screen Grabbing on Macs
Macs come with an inbuilt program called Grab, which you can use to take screenshots of the whole screen or a portion of a screen. Further information needs to be presented here for Mac and Linux - some info on using Windows XP follows.

Windows XP
Some details on capturing a screen shot in Windows XP here.

The technique explained at the link above also works extremely well with GIMP 2.* and is better for us since we can currently upload jpg files to Wikiversity .... but not bmp files? GIMP also allows import of BMP files so you can use the above technique and email the file to someone else (like me) with GIMP installed willing to convert it for you.

In XP Take your screen save by pushing the Prt Scrn button then in GIMP open a new file, choose the size of your screen; then use Edit, Paste into New. The image appears scaled within the new file frame. Save the file as a jpeg by clicking the little button at bottem of the Save As dialog and selecting jpeg from among all the available formats. Click Save and then when the dialog informs you it must export first to flatten the layer stack tell it Ok. It processes the file and saves under the name and path you provided.

Notice any of these can be used later for texture and sprite creation if we can find an import file format compatible with Art of Illusion, I hope you are reading the Art of Illusion manual and/or tutorials on your own in the background as you proceed along this trial!

Editor's note: Screen capture file format conversion needs to be doublechecked in GIMP procedure above. It was a bit tricky and I wrote it from memory. Erase this note when it is confirmed the revised procedure works well for GIMP novices. Thanks! Mirwin 04:10, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Use of Parallax and tiles in Sidescroller
This image is a good candidate for editing in Adobe Photoshop or the GIMP to create a sidescroller tileset. With proper editing following proper lines (roughly horizontal not too obviously repeating) we should be able to simulate being in a vehicle traveling slowly along a line of ridges. Two or three planes are established and the tiles in the planes farthest into the screen from the viewer move at a proportional distance to the illusion of depth one wishes to create.

What makes this a good candidate is the two roughly horizontal planes which will allow us to: Mirror the image; splice it to itself (either edge will match its mirror image). Copies of this are then edited to provide horizontal masses with transparent space above for other moving ridgelines.

This can be done off of the photograph(s) for preliminary prototyping and storyboarding and the photograph (NASA free use to the entire public) used for texture and color creation for 3d models of landscape. Then the rendered images are delivered in the format specified (into which the early tileset has been converted) and the tileset task/process is complete.

Ralph Peterson (writer)

Ralph Wilton Peterson (21 February 1921 – 2 November 1996) was an Australian writer (dramatist and playwright), actor and producer of film, theatre, radio and TV. He went to London and achieved fame with the success of his play The Square Ring, which was turned into a film of the same name in 1953. He married the Australian actress Betty Lucas in 1946; their son, Joel Patterson (1957–2017), became a cinematographer.

Biography
Peterson was born in Adelaide, the only son of Ralph A. and Daphne (née Coulter) Peterson, and became involved in theatre and journalism in his teens. He got work on radio playing one of the students on the show Yes, What? (1937–41) which became very popular. Peterson started writing episodes. When the show ended Peterson moved to Sydney and worked as an announcer on 2UE before joining the army.

He served as an artillery officer and in the First Australian Broadcasting Control Unit. He appeared in plays at the Metropolitan Theatre and the Independent Theatre, including the original production of Rusty Bugles.

After the war, Peterson began writing regularly for Sydney radio including comedy material for Roy Rene, Jack Davey and Dick Bentley. He wrote a comedy serial for him and his wife Betty Lucas, Ralph and Betty (1947).

A radio feature about an Aboriginal child, The Problem of Johnny Flourcake (1950) was narrated by Anthony Quayle who recommended Peterson to the BBC. Peterson moved to London in 1951, writing scripts for Benny Hill and Tony Hancock. His stage play The Square Ring (1952), based on his radio serial Come Out Fighting, was such a success at Frank Thring's Arrow Theatre that the production was transferred to the much larger Princess Theatre, Melbourne. It was the basis of the Ealing Studios film The Square Ring.

Peterson returned to Australia in 1954, the year his second play, The Night of the Ding Dong, premiered. He continued to work in radio and wrote for film and TV.

He had a success with My Name's McGooley, What's Yours? (1966–68).

Personal
Peterson married Betty Helen Lucas of Clovelly road, Clovelly, New South Wales, on 8 November 1946.

Databases/Introduction

What is a database?
A persistent repository of data stored in a computer. The data represent recorded information. By persistent we mean that the data remain available indefinitely, after the software applications that use or create the data are closed, and even when the computer systems on which the data are stored reboot or crash due to software or hardware failures.

A database management system (DBMS) is a software system specifically designed to hold databases. We usually reserve the term database for an information repository maintained in a database management system.

Most database management systems are designed to store relational databases. A relational database maintains its information in the form of a collection of relations. A relation is usually called a database table. Each table has a set of named columns and a set of records (rows). Each row contains values for the columns.

This is used to record information as follows. The columns represent properties; the rows contain the values of these properties. For instance, we may have a table with information about persons, and columns with names such as first name, last name, and date of birth, and each row containing the first name, last name, date of birth, etcetera, of a particular person.

Usually, the information in different tables is related. For instance, to record the place of birth for persons, we may have a column place of birth within the persons table, and to record more information about such places, we can have a second table with properties of such places, for instance, their name and their geographical location. Each value in the place of birth column in the first table will then systematically identify a row in the second table.

Each relational database conforms to a database schema, which describes the tables, their columns, and the relationships between them.

Once we have a database filled with information we want to use that information. Sometimes we need the full contents of tables, but often we only need a selection or a summary of the information in the table, or we want the answer to specific questions. For instance, we may want to know how many persons on which we have information were born before 1968, or how many were born in London, England, or whether there are two persons with the same place of birth, date of birth, first and last name, but a different address. Such a question is known as a query and special database query languages have been developed to allow them to be formulated. By far the most popular query language for relational databases is SQL; nearly all relational database management systems support it, although with some variation among them. SQL can not only answer queries, but also return the contents of tables, and tables constructed as selections of combinations from tables in the database. It can also be used to define and modify tables. All access to a database can be done in SQL.

The properties and design of databases with database management systems are included in the study of Computer Science. While the underlying principles are the same for every relational DBMS, many of the details differ. To really get into this, you may consider downloading and installing the DBMS of your choice to your local machine. (I use and recommend MySQL because it's free and fairly easy to understand). Later on we'll focus on SQL, learning that language to do labs.

MediaWiki, the software that runs Wikiversity, uses the MySQL database within its core to generate the pages you see and to track page histories, recent changes, what links here and many other useful functions. This database also helps authenticate and log the Wikiversity userbase, keeping track of user contributions, watchlists and many other items.

Database tables
A database table can exist in a number of forms from a simple flat file database (not more than a spreadsheet) to full-featured SQL databases, Relational databases or object-relational databases. These tables consist of rows of cells called fields. The fields are generally positioned in columns with a top row of column headers. The rows may also contain a column of special fields at the left called row headers. This field is often called a primary key and acts as a sort of "handle" for the whole row. Sometimes rows and columns can "trade places" to form what is called a pivot table.

Table definitions are usually provided by a schema which preformats the information to be contained within a particular field. For example, one column may consist of fields conforming to a date format such as dd/mm/yyyy for day/month/year data. Another common example is to require field data that conforms to a monetary value - $0,000.00 for US Dollars or €0.000,00 for Euros. Learning about data types and structures are of primary importance when configuring database management systems and the schemas used in designing and manipulating them.

Data structures
Data structures can be thought of as ways to make sure the correct data goes in its appropriate place within the database schema. Nearly all databases, no matter how sophisticated, are designed and understood in terms of structure. Rows within a table, for example, should all contain the same number of fields, but the number of rows in the table can grow and shrink as needed.

The rows can be ordered alphabetically, numerically or in some other way, allowing the insertion of new rows while maintaining the order. A column should also contain the same data type all the way down, for instance the name fields would be structured according to a uniform method as in Last name, First name M.I or name: Firstname Middleinitial Lastname or similar.

The database programmer may wish to disallow null values in some fields while allowing them in others. At any rate, data structures provide a framework for building large stores of information that can be readily stored and retrieved by the DBMS. The way in which data enters, is modified or presented by the database engine is through a database query, stored procedure and/or a method.

See Data structures for more in-depth study.

Labs
These Labs progress from a simple text-based example to a complex study of the Wikiversity application of MediaWiki, MySQL, and PHP. Learners are asked to participate in other topics for the more advanced labs.

Our first database
Our first database is a Flat file database we shall call Favorites. Most folks are familiar with the Favorites folder or bookmarks file in their browser. Our flat file database is simply a list of URLs with a face string and a rank variable.

First, open your favorite text editor. (Microsoft Windows users can use Notepad. Linux users can use Gedit or similar.). Type Favorites database on the first line and hit enter twice to create a blank line and position your cursor at our top row which will be our header row.

Now on the new line type: | RANK || URL || FACE This creates a header row for what can be called a pipe-delimited table. This table schema is compatible with MediaWiki table syntax. Hit enter to start a new line. Type |- and hit enter again. Now type: | # || url || face You should now see: Now copy and paste these two lines several times below the first two. Save the new document as  favorites.txt . You now have a framework for filling your first text-based database which you can convert to a subpage of your Wikiversity userpage if you like. (provided your favorite sites conform to Policy i.e. relevant, decent, etc.).
 * # || url || face
 * # || url || face

Next, use your Web browser (a tabbed browser is recommended) to open a few of your frequently-visited sites. Now copy and paste the url from the address bar of each tab replacing the text url in each row. Then copy and paste or type the preferred text that best identifies the site to replace face. Repeat these for a number of your favorite sites. You can replace the  #  character to rank your selections. You should now have something like:

 * RANK || URL || FACE
 * 1 || http://wikiversity.org || Wikiversity
 * 2 || http://google.com || Google
 * 3 || http://www.gnu.org || Free Software Foundation
 * # || url || face
 * 3 || http://www.gnu.org || Free Software Foundation
 * # || url || face
 * # || url || face
 * # || url || face

To convert this to a wikitable add:

The resulting table will look like this:

Simply copy and paste the contents of  favorites.txt  to your Wikiversity userpage or a subpage to bookmark other sites. For more on Wikitables, see Wiki 101.

Date of birth
I'm not sure why this was removed by a user last year - the only tags in the edit summary suggest it is to do with personal privacy, but it isn't explicitly stated. It's unusual for a member of the House of Lords not to have a date of birth listed, so unless Lord Hunt has complained, I see no reason to remove it. In any case, it still comes up when searching for him on Google as part of the 'knowledge panel', so I've re-inserted it. TrottieTrue (talk) 02:31, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Trigonometry/Inverse Trigonometric Functions

The Basic Idea
In the equation
 * $$y=\sin(x)$$

if we are given $$x$$ we can work out $$y$$.

If we are given $$y$$, can we work out $$x$$ ?

Look at the graph of $$\sin(x)$$ and you will see that for $$y>1$$ or $$y<-1$$ there aren't any answers at all, whilst for other values of $$y$$ there are infinitely many answers.

If
 * $$y=\sin(x)$$

we write the inverse of $$\sin$$ as follows
 * $$x=\sin^{-1}(y)$$

Notice the strange notation. It's just a convention, and does not really fit in well with the convention of $$\sin^2(x)$$ meaning $$\sin(x)^2$$. However, we are stuck with this notation. It is so widely used and so familiar in mathematical work that in practice it does not cause confusion. On many calculators the alternative notation $$\arcsin$$ is used.

A calculator will only give one answer (or error) for $$\sin^{-1}(y)$$. You can get some of the other answers by adding or subtracting multiples of 360°. In a later section we spell out the conventions as to which answer is given by $$\sin^{-1}(y)$$.

arcsin
A common notation used for the inverse functions is the "arcfunction" notation, prefixing the function name by "arc" or sometimes just "a".
 * $$\sin^{-1}(x)=\arcsin(x)=\mbox{asin}(x)$$ ,
 * $$\cos^{-1}(x)=\arccos(x)=\mbox{acos}(x)$$, and
 * $$\tan^{-1}(x)=\arctan(x)=\mbox{atan}(x)$$.

The arcfunctions might perhaps be so named because of the relationship between radian measure of angles and arclength--the arcfunctions yield arc lengths on a unit circle.

The Inverse Functions, Domain and Range
The inverse of sine or cosine for some values has multiple answers and some values does not exist at all. We'd like it if the inverse were a function, but according to the mathematical definition of a function it is not:

 * A function is something that given one value always gives back a unique value as its 'answer'.

$$\sin(x)$$ is a function because given any x it gives back some value. There is not really a function that is an inverse for $$\sin(x)$$ because, for example, $$\sin(20^\circ)$$ and $$\sin(160^\circ)$$ have the same value. The inverse 'function' does not know whether to go back to 20° or 160°.

To deal with this we need some more mathematical language. We have mathematical terminology for what a function operates on and where its values end up. A function like $$\sqrt{x}$$ needs to be accompanied by some agreement as to what values it can operate on and where they end up. By convention $$\sqrt{25}=5$$, though $$x=-5$$ is also a valid solution to $$x^2=25$$. So how do we describe this kind of thing?

 * The domain of a function is the set of values which it is defined on.

The function $$\frac{1}{x}$$ is defined on all values of x except for 0. Its domain is the real numbers excluding zero.

The factorial function, operates on the positive whole numbers. As a function f - $$f(1)=1\ ,\ f(2)=2\ ,\ f(3)=6\ ,\ f(4)=24\dots$$. The factorial function is usually written by writing an exclamation point after a number. So, 3 factorial is usually written as 3! and it is $$3\times 2\times 1=6$$. 4 factorial is written as 4! and it is $$4\times 3\times 2\times 1=24$$.

The domain of the factorial function is the positive whole numbers.

 * The range of a function is the set of values which it can take. The range will depend on the domain too.

Consider the function
 * $$f(x)=x^2$$

If we use ordinary numbers for x like 37.2 or -1001.56 we always find $$f(x)$$ is a positive number (or zero). The range of $$f(x)$$ is the numbers greater than or equal to zero.

Consider the function
 * $$f(x)=2x$$

If we choose the domain of $$f(x)$$ to be the numbers greater than or equal to 1, then the range of $$f(x)$$ is the numbers greater than or equal to two.

More Notation

 * The integers are whole numbers like 1,2,3,4 and also include 0, -1, -2,-3... A symbol we use to indicate the integers is $$\Z$$ . The statement $$x\in\Z$$ means exactly the same thing as x is an integer.

 * The reals include all the integers, and also fractions, and also other numbers like pi, and square root of 2. The reals 'fill in the gaps' between the integers. You'll get a better definition of the reals in a later book. A symbol we use to indicate the reals is $$\R$$ . The statement $$x\in\R$$ means exactly the same thing as x is a real number.

 * A range of numbers in the reals can often be written using interval notation. Here is an example for numbers greater than or equal to zero and less than one: [0,1). The square and round brackets have special meaning. The square bracket means the number is included. A round bracket means the number is excluded.

 * The notation (1.3,100.7] means all numbers between 1.3 and 100.7, including 100.7 but excluding 1.3.
 * The notation [-59.1,12.5] means all numbers between -59.1 and 12.5, including -59.1 and including 12.5.
 * The notation (0,71.2) means all numbers between 0 and 71.2, excluding 0 and excluding 71.2.

 * Function composition is applying one function after another. If we have two functions f and g, we write the composite function, applied to x as: $$f\circ g(x)$$ . This means first apply g to x, then apply f to that result. We can regard $$f\circ g$$ as a new function in its own right.

 * An inverse to a function $$f$$ is written $$f^{-1}$$ . If $$f$$ is the function that adds 12 to a number, then $$f^{-1}$$ is the function that subtracts 12 from a number.

Inverses to Trig functions
Some textbooks 'solve' the problem of inverses for trig functions by defining new functions $$\mbox{Sin}(x)$$, $$\mbox{Cos}(x)$$ , and $$\mbox{Tan}(x)$$ (all with initial capitals) to equal the original functions but with restricted domain.

With suitably restricted domain the functions $$\mbox{Sin}(x)$$, $$\mbox{Cos}(x)$$ , and $$\mbox{Tan}(x)$$ (all with initial capitals) do have inverses which are functions too.

The restrictions to allow the inverses to be functions are standard. Here (and for the rest of this page) we are using radians to measure angles rather than degrees:
 * $$\mbox{Sin}(x)$$ has domain $$\left[-\tfrac{\pi}{2},\tfrac{\pi}{2}\right]$$

 * $$\mbox{Cos}(x)$$ has domain $$[0,\pi]$$ ; and

 * $$\mbox{Tan}(x)$$ has domain $$\left(-\tfrac{\pi}{2},\tfrac{\pi}{2}\right)$$

For each function, the restricted domain includes first-quadrant angles as well as an adjacent quadrant.

Inverses, Really?
It is important to note that because of these restricted domains, the inverse trigonometric functions do not necessarily behave as one might expect an inverse function to behave. While
 * $$\mbox{Sin}^{-1}\left(\sin\left(\tfrac{\pi}{6}\right)\right)=\mbox{Sin}^{-1}\left(\tfrac{1}{2}\right)=\tfrac{\pi}{6}$$ (following the expected $$\mbox{Sin}^{-1}\big(\sin(x)\big)=x$$),
 * $$\mbox{Sin}^{-1}\left(\sin\left(\tfrac{5\pi}{6}\right)\right)=\mbox{Sin}^{-1}\left(\tfrac{1}{2}\right)=\tfrac{\pi}{6}$$.

For the inverse trigonometric functions, $$f^{-1}\circ f(x)=x$$ only when $$x$$ is in the range of the inverse function.

The other direction, however: $$f\circ f^{-1}(x)=x$$ for all $$x$$ to which we can apply the inverse function.

The Inverse Relations
'For completeness', here are definitions of the inverse trigonometric relations based on the inverse trigonometric functions. This section is really mostly about using mathematical notation to express how adding multiples of 360o to an angle gives us another solution for the inverse. Because we are working in radians we're adding multiples of two pi. Some more notation being used here:
 * Curly braces like so {} mean the 'set of', i.e. the set of whatever is inside them.
 * The symbol $$\cup$$ is read as union. The union of two sets is everything that is in either of them.

 * $$\sin^{-1}(x)=\left\{\mbox{Sin}^{-1}(x)+2\pi k\big|k\in\Z\right\}\cup\left\{\pi-\mbox{Sin}^{-1}(x)+2\pi k\big|k\in\Z\right\}$$ (the sine function has period $$2\pi$$, but within any given period may have two solutions and $$\sin(x)=\sin(\pi-x)$$)
 * $$\cos^{-1}(x)=\left\{\pm\mbox{Cos}^{-1}(x)+2\pi k\big|k\in\Z\right\}$$ (the cosine function has period $$2\pi$$, but within any given period may have two solutions and cosine is even: $$\cos(x)=\cos(-x)$$)
 * $$\tan^{-1}(x)=\left\{\mbox{Tan}^{-1}(x)+\pi k\big|k\in\Z\right\}$$ (the tangent function has period $$\pi$$ and is one-to-one within any given period)

The Once and Future King/Minor Characters

The Once and Future King - Minor Characters

See also Major Characters.

As many characters have only a given name, or take "of Somewhere" as their last name, the characters are listed alphabetically by first name.

Note that characters in The Once and Future King may not exactly match with traditional Arthurian legend.

Sir Ector - Owns the Castle of the Forest Sauvage. He adopts and cares for the Wart. He is the father of Kay.

Sir Kay - Son of Sir Ector and friend of the Wart. He tries to act superior over the Wart. He follows Arthur on one adventure: the rescue mission at Morgan le Fay's castle (see ../The Sword in the Stone/). When Arthur brings Kay the Sword in the Stone, Kay falsely claims to have drawn the sword himself, but soon gives the credit to Arthur. He later becomes a knight of the Round Table.

Morgan le Fay - The most evil of the Cornwalls, and the strongest in magic. "Le Fay" means "the Fairy". She is the antagonist in the major adventure in ../The Sword in the Stone/. Her sisters are Elaine (not mentioned) and Morgause.

Uganda National Congress

Uganda National Congress (UNC) was the first political party in Uganda. It was a socialist party.

UNC formed
Formed on Sunday 2 March 1952, Ignatius Kangave Musaazi was its first president, and Abubaker Kakyama Mayanja the party's first secretary general. Apollo K. Kironde was the legal advisor to the party. The six men who founded the party were: Ignatius Kangave Musaazi (Buganda), Abubakar Kakyama Mayanja (Buganda), Stefano Abwangoto (Bugisu), Ben Okwerede (Teso), Yekosofati Engur (Lango) and S.B. Katembo (Toro).

UNC conceived at Musajjalumbwa's house
The UNC was conceived at Musajjalumbwa's house located on what is now Musajjalumbwa Road, near the Lubiri (Kabaka's palace), at Mengo. In 1951, Ignatius Musaazi rented part of the ground floor of Musajjalumbwa's house, a house of the late Yakobo Musajjalumbwa, who was a Treasurer (Omuwanika) in the Buganda Kingdom. At this house, a lot of work was done which resulted in the creation of the UNC. The party did much to help achieve Uganda's independence from Great Britain on Tuesday 9 October 1962.

UNC involvement in the struggle for independence in Africa
The UNC was involved in the struggle for independence in Africa. In Cairo (Egypt) John Kale represented the UNC and coordinated the struggle for the independence of African countries. Abu Mayanja and John Kale established a UNC office in Cairo to link up with contacts all over the world in order to assist freedom fighters in Africa.

The Secretary General of the UNC, Abu Mayanja, used his close relationship with the then Chinese leader Mao Tse-tung and Prime Minister Zhou Enlai to secure support for African freedom fighters involved in the struggle for independence in Africa. The UNC received £500,000 from China, as well as a modern printing press for the UNC from Italy. The printing press was installed in offices of two Ugandan newspapers at the time, namely The Uganda Post and The Uganda Express, which were based at Kololo in Kampala.

Other political parties formed in Uganda
Following the birth of the UNC, other political parties were formed in Uganda. In 1956, DP (Democratic Party) was formed. After the 1958 general election in Uganda, seven unaffiliated members of the Uganda Legislative Council (which was in effect Parliament in those colonial days), formed the Uganda People's Union. In 1960, the UNC party split into a Musaazi faction and an Apollo Milton Obote-led faction. The Uganda People's Union together with the Obote-led faction of the UNC formed a new party, the Uganda People's Congress (UPC), in March 1960. The DP and UPC parties became major political parties in Uganda. The UNC became less of a force, mainly because DP became popular and a new party, Kabaka Yekka, emerged.

Wikipedia:Peer review/Otto Graham/archive1

Otto Graham
This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this article for peer review because I'd like to prepare it for an FA review. I'd be especially interested in knowing where it's lacking. I'm unsure, for example, whether it would be wise to expand upon Graham's career as the head coach of the Washington Redskins, or whether that would constitute unnecessary detail. I'm also curious whether it would be advisable to add a section with a table showing his year-by-year statistics. And of course any other criticisms and suggestions would be much appreciated. Are the fair-use rationales for the images sufficient? What about the reliability of the sources?

Thanks, Batard0 (talk) 12:29, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

Brianboulton comments: I don't know much about football, though I have reviewed a few articles. This one looks pretty tidy and well presented. In regard to the specific questions you raise:-
 * I don't think it is necessary to add more detail about Graham's unsuccessful time with the Redskins, a relatively minor hiccup in an otherwise successful career. It might be a good idea, though, to add any further information you can glean on the 15-year period that followed his return to the Coast Guard Academy in 1969.
 * I've added more detail on what happened after he returned to Coast Guard in 1969 up until his retirement in 1984.
 * If you can prepare a statistical summary of Graham's career, that would be good (many people prefer to glance at lists rather than read articles). Be sure that the information in the table is accompanied by clear column headings and/or a key.
 * I'll put in a stat box with the appropriate headings and see where that goes.
 * I put in a stat box with full headings and a key, plus a coaching record. I'm not sure if this'll be seen as too much detail, but I threw it in there at the end in case it works.--Batard0 (talk) 20:37, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Of the two non-free images, I'd say the second is OK. I'm less sure that the first can be justified, bearing in mind that Graham is not identified; even if he can be, how does this picture help demonstrate his effectiveness as a passer or runner?
 * OK, I'll take the first out. He can be identified from his jersey number; the source also says it's him. I suppose it's hard to say how this demonstrates his effectiveness other than that it simply shows him running.

Other than these points I have numerous prose issues, some of which you should treat as suggestions rather than criticisms.
 * British readers would appreciate links on terms such as sophomore, which are not used in the UK. Also "intramural fraternity" could do with a bit of explanation.
 * freshman, sophomore and senior are wikilinked now.
 * Is "first-tem" a typo ("first-term")?
 * Indeed a typo. Thanks for the spot.
 * The association between Northwestern and the Wildcats football team should be made explicit, not left to a link. Otherwise readers have to leave the article to discover who the wildcats are.
 * Called it the Northwestern Wildcats football team; would Northwestern's Wildcats football team be better?
 * Care has to be taken in encyclopedia articles to maintain a neutral tone, hence the language has to be more formal than one would find in a sports journal. Thus I am a little wary of the use of terms such as "rout" to describe a heavy defeat. I will draw attention to other instances as they occur.
 * Called it "victory" instead.
 * "Graham threw for two touchdowns in an upset of an Ohio State team coached by Paul Brown, handing the school its only loss of the 1941 season." Be a bit more specific than "the school".
 * Repeating "Ohio State" for clarity's sake.
 * "signed up for the service" - I'd delete "the"
 * Better. Done.
 * "But the Wildcats..." In encyclopedic prose it is generally inadvisable to begin sentences with "But..", which adds nothing here.
 * Deleted.
 * What is "MVP"?
 * Americanism. Spelled out Most Valuable Player where it occurs and linked on first instance.
 * "Big Ten Conference" linked in successive paragraphs
 * Second instance unlinked.
 * $7500 a year and a monthly stipend of $250 makes the contract worth $10,500 a year; wouldn't this be simpler? You later say that the stipend was a large amount of money at the time - is that Referring to just the monthly amount? If so, £7,500 a year was absolutely huge.
 * Hmm...maybe the language isn't clear enough. The idea was he'd get $250 a month for the remainder of the war until he started playing for the team, at which point he'd make a salary of $7,500. Basically he was getting $3,000 a year during the war for doing nothing (although the sources don't put it this way, so I can't) and then would get $7,500 a year when he started playing. I've attempted to make this more explicit.
 * "February of 1944": "of" seems superfluous
 * Yep. Removed.
 * What was the Navy;s V5 cadet program?
 * Described in text as a pilot training course.
 * "The war, however, did not last forever..." Indeed, but no literary flourishes, please. Likewise "droves of athletes streamed home...". Perhaps: "Towards the end of the war large numbers of serving athletes arrived home as the conflict..." etc
 * Changed to simply "Large numbers of athletes arrived home as the conflict..."
 * I imagine that a perfect season means winning every game, but it might be as well to make this explicit.
 * It does. Tried to clear it up.
 * "Graham became the team's uncontested leader..." As this is a fresh paragraph, identify the team; "the Browns'"
 * Did this.
 * Link "interception". Does "He also threw three interceptions" mean that three of his throws were intercepted?
 * Linked. And yes, it does mean three throws were intercepted. It's football jargon Americans will likely know, but I'll try to word it more simply so everyone can understand.
 * Link "shutout"
 * I changed it to "win" since 27-0 shutout in my view is redundant. It's like saying they won 27-0, holding their opponents scoreless.
 * "...soon made mandatory". Can you be more specific, e.g. give the year masks became mandatory?
 * The source says "before long became mandatory". I'll look for a source that gives a specific year.
 * "infamous" is POV/peacock, should be removed.
 * Removed.
 * "When Brown pulled Graham..." Needs rewording in plain (non-football) prose).
 * Rephrased to say "When Brown took Graham out of the game..."
 * "Graham's record as a starter was 114–20–4, including a 9–3 mark in the playoffs." Needs translating for us non-football people.
 * Rephrased to say the Browns' record with Graham as the starting quarterback ... including a 9-3 record in the playoffs..."
 * "to focus on managing insurance and appliance businesses he owned." Needs a "the" after "managing"
 * Added.
 * "With Graham at the helm in 1958, the all-stars beat the Detroit Lions 35–19". Clarify that this refers to the 1958 All-Stars game.
 * Rephrased.

I wish you every success with the article. If you wish to raise any point with me, or would like me to look again, please ping my talkpage. Brianboulton (talk) 16:18, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the help with this. People less familiar with the game always have the freshest eyes.--Batard0 (talk) 19:42, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Mayfair Ltd v Pears

Mayfair Ltd v Pears [1987] 1 NZLR 459 is a cited case in New Zealand regarding whether or not strict liability applies in tort.

Background
Brian Pears parked his car on a parking deck of a Wellington building, without the permission of the building's owner, Mayfair Limited, effectively trespassing. Later that night, for unknown reasons, the car mysteriously exploded, starting a fire in the building, causing $8,475.81 in damage to the building.

Pears refused to pay for the damage.

Held
The court ruled that whilst there was strict liability in tort for the escape of fire, the court limited this to cases where the escape of fire was from land or buildings. Here the escape of fire was merely from a chattel (a car), meaning there was no strict liability for the resulting damage, and as the fire was not attributed to any negligence on his part, Mayfair's claim was struck out.

Chrissie Foster

Christine "Chrissie" Foster (born c. 1955) is an Australian advocate for people impacted by child sexual abuse.

Foster and her late husband, Anthony, raised three daughters in the Melbourne suburb of Oakleigh, Victoria. The children were educated in Catholic schools. Father Kevin O'Donnell, a local Catholic priest, aged in his 70s, was well-known by Catholic church hierarchy as a long-term paedophile, who the Church had moved from parish to parish in order to avoid his career of sexual assault on children becoming public. O'Donnell, who lived next door to the Oakleigh Sacred Heart Primary School, sexually abused two of the Fosters' daughters in the 1990s, when they were aged between five and seven years old. The Foster family's case was one of those which prompted establishment of the Victorian Parliamentary Inquiry into the Handling of Child Abuse by Religious and Other Organisations and the subsequent Australian Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse.

In 2017 Foster was a Local Hero Nominee in Victoria for the Australian of the Year. In 2019, Foster was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia for significant service to children, particularly as an advocate for those who have suffered sexual abuse. Foster's advocacy included fighting for survivors to be allowed in the evidence room to hear the cross examination of Cardinal George Pell in Rome.

Foster is a critic of the Catholic Church's Melbourne Response restorative compensation package for victims of clerical sexual abuse.
