Przemko III, Duke of Opava

Przemko III, Duke of Opava (also known as Přemek III or Primislaus III; ; Přemysl III. von Troppau; c. 1450 – 17 February 1493) was a member of the Opavian branch of the Bohemian Přemyslid dynasty. He was titular Duke of Opava and canon of Wrocław, Olomouc and Vienna, as well as Provost of the St. Othmar parish in Mödling. In the older literature Przemko III is often confused with his uncle Przemko II.

Life
His parents were Duke William of Opava and Salome, a daughter of the Bohemian nobleman Půta III of Častolovice.

After his father's death in 1452, his brother Ernest took up the guardianship of Przemko and his four siblings. Przemko III and his brothers Frederick and Wenceslas III inherited a two thirds share of the Duchy of Opava; their cousin John II held the remaining third. Their father had held the Duchy of Münsterberg for a while, however, Przemko and his brothers did not inherit it, because their father had swapped it with Ernest for the latter's third of Opava. The brothers nevertheless sometimes used the title of "Duke of Münsterberg". Ernest, in his capacity as their guardian, sold the brothers' two-thirds of Opava in 1464 to Duke Bolko V of Opole. John II retained his share.

As Przemko III had no prospect of a steady income, his uncle destined him for a career in the clergy. In 1464, he enrolled at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków under the name Preclarus princeps Przyemislaus dux Oppawie d. T.. He became a member of the Cathedral chapter in Wrocław, together with his uncle Przemko II, Duke of Opava (dux junior and dux senior). The archives of Wrocław describe him as "Duke of Münsterberg" in 1466. He also became canon of Olomouc, probably around the same time.

During the winter semester of 1471, Przemko III studied at the University of Vienna, where he probably received his bachelor's degree. In 1479, he succeeded Paul Laubmann and Cathedral Dean in Vienna. In the certificate of his appointment, he is called Primislaus dux Oppaue. He also succeeded Paul Laubmann as provost of the St. Othmar parish in Mödling. He received this appointment from Emperor Frederick III, together with an apartment at the ducal court, where he lived for the rest of his life. His coat of arms can still be seen in this apartment. He appears to have taken his job as pastor very seriously. In the episcopal archive in Vienna, several documents from the years 1481-1484 describe his work. Although he had been financially ruined by the destruction in the Duchy of Opava, his university degree made him one of the more outstanding and accomplished Moravian and Silesian noblemen of his time.

Przemko II died unmarried and childless on 17 February 1493. He was buried in the St. Othmar church in Mödling. A red marble grave plate can still be found on the northern wall. It bears the inscription: Anno Domini 1493. 17. februarii obiit hic illustris princeps Primislaus Opavie dux. Wratislaviensi Olemucensis et Wiennensis. Ecclesiarum canonicus plebanus hic in Medling atque decanus Wienne Austrie, cuius anima vivat Deo. Amen.

Hi,

I've just created a page in English for Nicolas Bouvier based on information and links found on the French entry.

I am in awe of this writer and would appreciate it we could add information about him and his work.

Iconograph
This links to the imp-powered cameras found in the works of Terry Pratchett. I'd correct this, only I'm not sure what it should be... Daibhid C 23:39, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Maybe it refers to iconography the way it's used in cultural studies, meaning that his work reflected 'icons' (symbols, signs, landscapes etc.) of great importance to a particular culture. This would be more of a meta-attribute, and it's not on the same level as "traveller", "writer", and "photographer". Perhaps it should be removed from the opening line and included in one of the following sentences. ---Sluzzelin 10:27, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Fixed the problem. Linked it now to iconography, having verified that this was the intent on the original French version. Thanks! Tobateksingh 21:40, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Jean de Menasce

Jean de Menasce (1902–1973) was a French Catholic priest, of the Dominican Order, as well as an author and academic. He came from Jewish Egyptian and French parentage. Over his lifetime he mastered fifteen languages, including Hebrew, Syriac, and Pahlavi. He was in the Catholic contingent among Jewish and Protestant leaders at an important post-war interfaith conference. Menasce wrote as a theologian, and as a scholar of Middle Eastern studies, especially regarding Judaism, and the Zoroastrian religion.

Early years
Jean de Menasce was born in Alexandria on 24 December 1902 into a well-established family in the Jewish community of Egypt. His father, Baron Félix de Menasce, a banker with Austro-Hungarian links, was head of the Jewish community in Alexandria; he had been raised to the peerage by the Emperor of Austria. Jean's mother was French from a Spanish line. A cousin of Jean de Menasce was the writer and diplomat Georges Cattaui, six years his senior. A second cousin was the composer and pianist Jacques de Menasce.

After the local lycée français, Jean de Menasce remained in Cairo studying at its French School of Law. Thereafter he continued his education in Europe, at Oxford University and at the Sorbonne. During the course of his student years, de Menasce had left behind his religious beliefs.

At Oxford's Balliol College, he was a classmate of the future novelist Graham Greene, who also would convert to Catholicism in 1926. Menasce translated into French works of the English poet T. S. Eliot, a friend. In 1922 he made the French translation of a book by the philosopher Bertrand Russell, whom he knew as a fellow member of Lady Ottoline Morrell's salon at Oxford. From the poetry of John Donne, the 17th-century Anglican priest, he had also made French versions. Thus he already enjoyed some recognition when in 1926 he became a convert to Catholicism.

Conversion
In the meantime, de Menasce had continued to study law and philosophy at the Sorbonne in Paris. Then, while pursuing his interest in Zionism, Chaim Weizmann, a family friend and future President of Israel, appointed him secretary of the Zionist Bureau in Geneva. He then traveled to Jerusalem.

Returning to Paris, de Menasce entered a period of personal spiritual crisis, and painful growth. He began his lifelong friendship with the Catholic philosopher Jacques Maritain and his Jewish wife Raissa, both converts from agnosticism twenty years earlier. Another decisive new friend was Louis Massignon, a scholar whose 4-volume study of the Islamic mystic Al-Hallaj had just been published. Massignon, also a convert, had met de Menasce at the La Revue juive [The Jewish Review].

In this learned milieu, in an atmosphere of intense spiritual awareness, de Menasce converted. During his inquiring approach to Christianity with Massignon he had discussed the mystics Theresa of Avila and Francis of Assisi. He had also followed the modern naisance of Jewish-Christian dialogue. After his baptism he spent the first months writing his book on Hassidism, Quand Israel aime Dieu. According to Adrian Hastings:

"The book was 'an exceptionally beautiful study of Jewish Hasidic holiness. It was, in a way, his farewell tribute to the religion of his ancestors, but one feels that he was able to make it only after he had rediscovered the God of Israel through the discovery of Jesus as Messiah.'"

He then spent two years in Cairo at his father's request. In 1930 he entered the Dominican Order. His formation for the priesthood was conducted in Belgium at fr:Le Saulchoir de Kain, and he was ordained in 1935.

Roles in the Church
Following an earlier suggestion of Massignon, Fr. Jean de Menasce pursued studies in the Syriac language. It led him into the academic world of religious studies, eventually becoming a professor. "The relationship of Christianity to Judaism and Islam, and to all the great world religions was central to his missiology." Hence his scholarly affinity to the Islamists Massignon, Abd-el Jalil, and Louis Gardet, as well as Hendrik Kraemer. In this context de Menasce approached the theme of Catholic missions after the second world war. "The relationship of Christianity to Judaism and Islam, and to all the great world religions was central to his missiology."

The priest and professor exerted an important influence within the wide horizons of French Catholic intellectual life. De Menasce was a close friend of the art critic fr:Stanislas Fumet, of the essayist Charles Du Bos, and of the ill-fated writer Maurice Sachs, in addition to the above philosopher Jacques Maritain. Menasce also participated in the neo-Thomist revival within his Church, following Cardinal Charles Journet and Professor Maritain among others.

Jewish-Christian relations
De Menasce was continuously involved in fostering Jewish-Christian relations. He played a major role in its evolution during the painful yet persistently hopeful post-war years. During this period, de Menasce lectured on contemporary Jewish thought, e.g., that of philosopher Emmanuel Levinas.

He was one of nine Catholic participants among the seventy Jewish and Christian leaders at the Seelisberg Conference on the Shoah in 1947. This international religious gathering in Switzerland addressed the world of pain and grief left by the searing ideological conflict. Sponsored by the International Council of Christians and Jews (ICCJ), it faced antisemitism, seeking to heal wounds and to bridge divides, recent and ancient.

Zoroastrian studies
In Iranian studies de Menasce excelled. He became a recognized expert, a leader in the field. In the late 1930s he had studied with Émile Benveniste in Fribourg. During the war he prepared his translation of the Škand-Gumānīk Vičār by Mardan-Farrukk, a ninth century Zoroastrian. The book included transcriptions of the text in Pahlavi and in Pazand, a glossary, and his extensive annotations. He scrutinized the comparative theology of this polemical work, which consciously employs reason to criticize the monotheism of Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Each of its chapters is introduced, translated into French, and followed by commentary. The clarity of his language was remarkable. The book was dedicated to his teacher and friend, Professor Benveniste.

In 1947 the University of Paris invited him to give a series of seminars at the Sorbonne on the Zoroastrian texts, the Denkart. His work here was published in 1958. Menasce was a leader in investigating the epigraphy of the Sasanian Empire. With Henry Corbin and Gilbert Lazard he was a founder of the Association pour l'advancement de études iraniennes. His academic production on Zoroastrian subjects accumulated, including an article on imperial Sasanid law.

De Menasce illustrated points of convergence between Zoroastrian theological reasoning and the Muslim philosophic school of Mu'tazila, whereby the deity Allah would be understood as divorced from "all cause" [toute causalité] of evil in the world. He probed Augustine's period as a Manichean, a dualist religion derived in part from Zoroastrianism; Augustine later converted to Christianity and became a Church Father. His continued study of the Denkart eventually resulted in further seminars at the Sorbonne in 1962-1964, and the posthumous publication of his work on the Denkart's third book.

Publications and posts
The published works of de Menasce include books and articles on subjects including: theology, philosophy, law, history of religions, Zoroastrianism, and also Judaism, Zionism, and Hassidism. His reputation could rest on his translations alone, made into French from several different languages.

Starting in 1936 he had served as professor at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland. In 1939 in Paris he became research professor for the religions of ancient Iran. In 1945 de Menasce participated in founding the journal Nouvelle Revue de Science Missionaire/Neue Zeitschrift für Missionswissenschaft. 1954-1955, he taught at Harvard, and at Princeton, where he renewed his friendship with Jacques Maritain. From 1949 until 1970 he was Director of Studies at l'École pratique des hautes études in Paris; here an academic chair had been created especially for him.

An appreciation, his passing
A Muslim colleague said of him, "[H]e made possible a degree of communication amongst us that would have been much more difficult in his absence." After suffering strokes in 1959 and 1969, Father de Menasce died at the age of 70 in 1973.

Talk:List of riots in Sri Lanka/Archive 1

Interesting list but the majority of the links go to a highly biased website. There is no attempt at providing a rounded POV and furthermore the language is quite inflammatory. It could do with bein merged into the History of Sri Lanka article.

 * Do not agree with the anonymous posters request to merge with history of Sri Lanka, but will do my best to find neutral sources. User:RaveenS

 * I also oppose the merger.
 * We should "neutralize" the language somewhat. And maybe review the links and rather add ones by impartial organisations, if there are any to be found (not impartial organisations, but articles by them). ;-) Krankman 01:18, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Agreed, I am also going to create individual articles on each of these riots as my next project using neutral sources as much as possibleRaveenS 14:03, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Tagging the article for violating NPOV and factual inaccuracies
There is no evidence of government involvment in 1958 riots. No evidence Sri Lankan troop participated in Trinco riots. No citations and highly POV langauge throughout.Ruchiraw 05:07, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Please do not reference from websites run by LTTE front organisations or sympathisers. Try and use international organisations like Amnesty or the UN. I could also create a list of Tamil massacres of muslims and sinhalese in Sri Lanka citing only the Hela Uramaya website, but that would not be neutral or meaningful.Ruchiraw 05:10, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

 * You are setting a standard here that is impossible to meet. The Internet did not exist in the 1950s.  Most of the neutral sources documenting the 1958 riots exist only in offline form - see for instance major newspapers of the time, or books by later historians like Stanley Tambiah or A. Jeyaratnam Wilson.  The only online sources you are going to find are from pro-Tamil sites, most of which are also pro-LTTE.  There is nothing wrong with this as long as the facts are correct.  You yourself have contributed to Notable attacks by the LTTE which uses government web sites.

 * It's wikipedia policy not to allow existence of material which is not cited.Ruchiraw 17:17, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

 * I meant don't reference only from these sites. Find some other reliable ones as well. Ruchiraw 06:14, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

 * The article never said the government was directly behind the 1958 riots - just that the police and army failed to protect Tamil civilians from the mobs. That much can be verified from the offline sources I mentioned earlier. Tyronen 05:38, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Then followiung sentence is very misleading Ruchiraw 06:14, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

The pogrom of 1958 began under leadership of Prime Minister Bandaranaike[citation

 * Following is factually inaccurate. No evidence of Sri Lankan military carrying out killings

Recent massacres of Tamil civilians by organized Sinhalese mobs and the Sri Lankan military were widely reported in the media in the town of Trincomalee in April of 2006.

 * Following also incorrect. Only one riot occurred throughout the 1960s and 1970s

There were also organized terror campaigns against the Tamil minority throughout the 1960s and 1970s. There

 * It is a fact that the killers of 1958 were, if not even supported, at least protected by members of the police force and the government. Several impartial books relate the whole story. It is an accepted as a given in the scientific community. Everything else is trying to cover up what happened.

 * I will name a few sources soon, maybe also on violence in the 60s and 70s. I'll do it possibly tomorrow if I find the time. Krankman 18:56, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Hmpf. Promised too much. I don't have the respective books here. Would need to get them from the University Library. Is that really necessary? Only a few stubborn Sinhala nationalists will seriously doubt the accuracy of that information. Krankman 13:31, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Reorganization needed
See my post on Talk:State_terrorism_in_Sri_Lanka. Tyronen 22:18, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

 * I propose the name of this list to be changed to List of anti-minority riots and pogorams and keep it with links to major articles on each instances such as 1915, 1958, 1977, 1983... RaveenS 12:08, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Electronics/Superposition

Superposition Principle
(a)

(b)

(c)
 * Figure 1: The circuits showing the linearity of resistors.

Most basic electronic circuits are composed of linear elements. Linear elements are circuit elements which follow Ohm’s Law. In Figure 1 (a) with independent voltage source, V1, and resistor, R, a current i1 flows. The current i1 has a value according to Ohm’s Law. Similarly in Figure 1 (b) with independent voltage source, V2, and resistor, R, a current i2 flows. In Figure 1 (c) with independent voltage sources, V1 and V2, and resistor, R, a current i flows. Using Ohm’s Law equation 1 is reached. If some simple algebra is used then equation 2 is reached. But V1/R has a value i1 and the other term is i2 this gives equation 3. This is basically what the Superposition Theorem states.

 * $$i=\frac {V_1+V_2}{R}$$(1)
 * $$i=\frac {V_1}{R} + \frac {V_2}{R}$$(2)
 * $$i=i_1+i_2 \, $$(3)

The Superposition Theorem states that the effect of all the sources with corresponding stimuli on a circuit of linear elements is equal to the algebraic sum of each individual effect. Each individual effect is calculated by removing all other stimuli by replacing voltage sources with short circuits and current sources with open circuits. Dependent sources can be removed as long as the controlling stimuli is not set to zero. The process of calculating each effect with one stimulus connected at a time is continued until all the effects are calculated. If kth stimulus is denoted sk and the effect created by sk denoted ek.

 * $$\sum_{k=1}^N e_k$$(4)

The steps for using superposition are as follows:
 * 1. Calculate the effect of each source in turn with all other independent voltage sources short circuited and independent current sources open circuited.
 * 2. Sum these effects to get the complete effect.

Note: the removal of each source is often stated differently as: replace each voltage source with its internal resistance and each current with its internal resistance. This is identical to what has been stated above. This is because a real voltage source consists of an independent voltage source in series with its internal resistance and a real current source consists of an independent current source in parallel with its internal resistance.

Superposition Example

 * Figure 2: The circuit for the example.

Problem: Calculate the voltage, v, across resistor R1.

Step 1: Short circuit V2 and solve for v1. By voltage divider rule.
 * $$v_{1}= \frac {V_1(R_1 | | R_3)}{R_2+(R_1 | | R_3)}$$(5)

Short circuit V1 and solve for v2. By voltage divider rule.
 * $$v_{2}= \frac {V_2(R_1 | | R_2)}{R_3+(R_1 | | R_2)}$$(6)

Step 2: Sum the effects.
 * $$v=v_1+v_2 \,$$

Using equations 5 and 6.
 * $$v=\frac {V_1(R_1 | | R_3)}{R_2+(R_1 | | R_3)}+\frac {V_2(R_1 | | R_2)}{R_3+(R_1 | | R_2)}$$

If $$R_1=R_2=R_3=2k \Omega$$ and $$V_1=V_2=15V$$ then
 * $$v=\frac {15(2k | | 2k)}{2k+(2k | | 2k)}+\frac {15(2k | | 2k)}{2k+(2k | | 2k)}$$
 * $$v=\frac {15(1k)}{3k}+\frac {15(1k)}{3k}$$
 * $$v=10V \,$$

The 1952 National Trophy was the 15th edition of the Knockout Cup. The Trophy consisted of three stages; stage one was for the third tier clubs, stage two was for the second tier clubs and stage three was for the top tier clubs. The winner of stage one would qualify for stage two and the winner of stage two would qualify for the third and final stage. Plymouth won stage one and therefore qualified for stage two.

Big Brother (Portuguese TV series) season 6

Big Brother 6, also known as Big Brother: A Revolução, is the sixth season of the Portuguese version of the reality show Big Brother. It's the second original format of Big Brother to air in 2020, one month after the fifth season ended on 2 August 2020. It was also revealed on 5 July 2020 during the live eviction show that the audition for Big Brother 6 was open and the show will be called "Big Brother: A Revolução" (lit. Big Brother: The Revolution). The show is featuring a new format and rules, housemates will have to be more interactive and competitive in the house if they want to win.

On 29 July 2020, it was revealed that the sixth season would start on 13 September 2020 and finish on 31 December 2020. This time, there would be no BB Zoom and quarantine period like it happened in the fifth season, but all of the official housemates must be test negative of COVID-19.

On 4 August 2020, TVI confirmed that the presenter of this season is Teresa Guilherme.

Maria Zambrano, the former production director of Gran Hermano - the Spanish version of Big Brother, is the executive producer of this season.

New housemate selection
During the first live eviction show, it was announced that a new housemate would enter the house and the choice is made by the public. During the week, two new potential contestants have been voted on the official application and one of them entered the house by the decision of the public vote on Day 15.

Repechage
During the eviction show on Day 64, it was announced a vote between ex-housemates to return to the House, and unlike last season the returning housemates would be competing for the grand prize, however, if one of them ends up winning they would get a reduced price and the rest will be divided between the other finalists. At the end of the eviction show of the same night, the bottom 3 was eliminated, being the vote between the top 4 opened during the week and the 2 ex-housemates with the most votes would return to the game on Day 78.

On November 17, the ex-housemates did tests for COVID-19. As Liliana's test came out as positive, she was automatically eliminated from any chance of re-entering the house.

On November 25, it was revealed that Sandra had quit the repechage due to family reasons. Therefore, the public vote was canceled, and Carina and Jéssica A. would re-enter the game.

On November 26, Jéssica A. was disqualified from returning to the game as she broke the rules and let fellow ex-housemate Rui visit her while she was in isolation. Therefore, Carina was the only ex-housemate returning to the house.

House division
The Main House is divided into two areas: the Main House and  the Garden. Infiltrators live in the Command Post.

Nominations table

 * – This housemate is an Infiltrator and lives in the Command Post.
 * – This housemate lives in the Garden.
 * – This housemate was given or won immunity for that week.
 * – This housemate was the Leader for that week.
 * – This housemate was automatically nominated by Big Brother, housemate(s) or Leader's Power.
 * – Leader's Power to save a nominated housemate.
 * – Leader's Power to replace a non-nominated housemate.
 * – This Leader's Power to save belong to the public.
 * (Number)-name – Numbers before the names on Week 1 are nominations points, the first housemate in each box was nominated for two points, and the second housemate was nominated for one point.
 * Name (xNumber) – This housemate's nominations are counted for specific times.

Note

 * Andreia, Bruno and Sandra are not official housemates, they are Infiltrators. They have to live outside of the Main House in the Command Post. They must always be prepared for the challenges and never be discovered as undercover. André F., the last one to enter the house is the accomplice of Infiltrators.
 * Michel was chosen by the Infiltrators to face the public vote, and Michel could choose another housemate to join him, he chose Luís. One of them loses their housemate status and becomes Infiltrator.
 * Michel received the most public votes to become an Infiltrator, and as there are only three beds in the Command Post, Michel took Bruno's place. Bruno entered the house pretending to be a new housemate and was exempt from the nominations.
 * The house is divided into two areas. The housemates nominate from their area. Additionally, this week the first nomination was for 2 points, while the second one was for 1 point.
 * André F. won immunity and was exempt to nominate as he was an infiltrator in the house. However, to protect his secret, housemates were told he received immunity by winning a challenge.
 * Luís left the house on Day 5 for medical reasons. He was one of the nominees, however, the evictions continued between the rest of the nominees.
 * On Day 7, Bruno left the house for personal reasons.
 * As their last decision as infiltrators, André F., Andreia, Michel and Sandra had to choose a housemate to be automatically nominated (in bold). They chose Rui.
 * There were two rounds of nominations this week done face-to-face, and everyone could nominate and be nominated except for Rui (who was already automatically nominated) and Andreia and Sandra (who won immunity and were exempt to nominate as they had just entered the main house two days prior). In the first round, André F. received the most votes and was nominated. In the second round, Diana received the most votes and was nominated. Carina and Jéssica F. were chosen on the show's app to have access to the Privileges' Room, and as a reward, in this second round, they could nominate in secret and with their votes counting as double.
 * On Day 11, André F. was ejected for constant rule-breaking. He was one of the nominees, however, the eviction continued between the rest of the nominees.
 * Before knowing the results of the eviction, each nominee, Rui and Diana, had to choose someone who would win the power of saving an upcoming nominee. Andreia, Jéssica F., Joana and Sandra were the original nominees. Rui, who was saved from eviction, chose Renato to give his power. He chose to save Jéssica A. and chose Catarina as her replacement.
 * This week the nominations went back to the format of last season, where each housemate had to nominate three other housemates for eviction face-to-face. Additionally, the Leader was also introduced, and Renato won the title and he could nominate in private.
 * After Sandra's eviction, housemates were divided into two teams who had to battle it off in several challenges throughout the week. The winning team would win some privileges, including during the nominations. The teams were: Blue Team (Renato as captain, Carlos, Zena, Jéssica F., Catarina, Carina and Liliana) and Red Team (Rui as captain, André A., Jéssica A., Michel, Sofia, Joana and Andreia). As the winning team, the Red Team won immunity and had to vote between themselves who would be the Leader for the week. They chose Rui.
 * The original nominees were Carlos, Carina, Jéssica F., Liliana and Zena. At the end of the nominations, as the Leader, Rui had to give an automatic nomination to another housemate. He chose Catarina.
 * As the Leader, Andreia had to choose three housemates apart from herself to nominate in secret. She chose Jéssica F., Sofia and Joana. The original nominees were Carina, Joana, Liliana and Pedro. As the Leader, Andreia had the power to save one of the nominees and replace it with another housemate of her choice. She saved Joana and replaced her with Renato.
 * At the start of the eviction show, housemates were asked to nominate someone, except the nominees at the time (Carina, Liliana and Renato), thinking they would be nominating normally. Pedro received the most nominations, and as a result, a quick vote on the official app was opened to decide whether he would be nominated or win immunity. With 73% of votes, the public decided that he would be immune.
 * During the Leader competition, apart from choosing the next Leader, there was also an additional power attributed. Pedro won the extra power to automatically nominate a housemate, he chose Joana. As the Leader, Sofia had to choose three housemates apart from herself to nominate in secret. She chose Renato, Joana and Jéssica A.. The original nominees were Andreia, Jéssica A., Jéssica F., Joana and Zena. At the end of the nominations, Sofia, as the Leader, had to give an automatic nomination to another housemate. She chose Carina.
 * Carina and Jéssica F. were automatically nominated and could not be Leader for psychological and physically violent behavior during the week.
 * As the Leader, Joana had to choose three housemates apart from herself to nominate in secret. She chose Carina, Carlos and Michel. The original nominees were André A., Andreia, Carina, Jéssica F., Michel, Pedro, Rui and Sofia. Joana won an additional power in a task during the week and could choose to either save or nominate. She chose the power to save and saved Michel. Finally as the Leader, Joana had the power to save one of the nominees and be replaced by another housemate of her choice. She saved André A. and replaced him with Renato.
 * During the week, Sofia was voted as the most invisible housemate, and as a consequence, a vote was opened on the official app to give her either a double vote during the nominations or an automatic nomination. With 61% of votes, the public gave her an automatic nomination.
 * This week all the nominations were made in the Diary Room and are simultaneous with the Leader task. Before the nomination, every housemate had to pick a ball that had different powers and points to nominate. Rui could not pick a ball as he was punished earlier during the week. He could not be Leader and nominated 3 housemates as usual, same for Sofia who was automatically nominated earlier. Andreia picked a ball that she could not nominate. Zena picked the Leader ball, all possible nominations against her were voided.
 * Andreia, Joana, Rui, Pedro and Sofia were the original nominees. This week, the Leader's Power belonged to the public and in a quick vote on the official app, they had the opportunity to save one of the nominees. With 36%, Rui was saved. Joana 23% and Andreia 15%. Zena as the Leader then chose Michel as the replacement.
 * As the Leader, Zena had to choose four housemates apart from herself to nominate in secret and face some consequences. She chose Andreia (she had to automatically nominate someone, in bold), André A. (his nominations counted double times), Renato (he could only nominate one housemate) and Sofia (she could nominate 4 housemates).
 * Carlos, Joana, Pedro and Rui were the original nominees. Like last week, the Leader's Power belonged to the public and in a quick vote on the official app, they had the opportunity of saving one of the nominees. With 46% of votes, Rui was saved. Zena as the Leader then chose Andreia as the replacement.
 * Rui has initially given an automatic nomination for next week because of his aggressive behavior towards other housemates. However, on the night of Day 60, he decided to leave the house instead.
 * During the nominations this week, each housemate had the opportunity to receive a call from home and their loved ones gave some advice on whom they should nominate. Housemates had to nominate in 30 seconds after that. If they out of time, their nominations would be voided.
 * Andreia, Joana, Pedro and Renato were the original nominees. Pedro won an additional power in a task during the week and he could choose to either save or nominate. He chose the power to save and he saved Renato. The Leader's Power belonged to the public and in a quick vote on the official app, they had the opportunity to save one of the nominees. However, this time, Jéssica F. as a leader had to choose 2 nominees to be on this vote. She chose Andreia and Pedro. With 86% of votes, Pedro was saved. Jéssica F. then chose André A. and Zena as replacements of both saved housemates.
 * The 3 ex-housemates who still had a chance to return and they were in quarantine. They were able to nominate one housemate each without being acknowledged by the current housemates.
 * As the Leader, Jéssica F. had to distribute numbers to her fellow housemates. Each number has a consequence or power for the nominations. Renato received 4 nominations power, Pedro only able to nominate 1 housemate, Joana's nominations were counted double times, Sofia was able to see the ranking of nominations before she nominates, Zena received 4 nominations power, and André A. was able to void a housemate's nominations and chose Joana.
 * André A., Joana, Pedro, Renato and Sofia were the original nominees. The Leader's power belonged to the public and in a quick vote on the official app, they had the opportunity to save one of the nominees. Like last time, Jéssica F. as a leader had to choose 2 nominees to be on this vote. She chose Renato and Sofia. With 91% of votes, Renato was saved. Jéssica F. then chose Zena as the replacement.
 * After Carina re-entered the house, the other housemates had to decide whether she should be immune or not. By a 4-2 vote, Carina was immuned.
 * As the Leader, André A. had to distribute numbers to 3 of his fellow housemates. Each number has a consequence or power for the nominations. Carina's nominations were counted double times, nominations of Joana were voided and Zena's nominations were counted triple times.
 * As Jéssica F. has some difficulties on the nomination, the production opened a public vote on the official app asking who she should nominate. The housemate who received the most votes would be her first nomination. With 37% of votes, Renato was her first nomination.
 * Jéssica F., Joana, Pedro, Renato and Zena were the original nominees. The Leader's Power belonged to the public and in a quick vote on the official app, they had the opportunity to save one of the nominees. André A. as the leader had to choose 2 nominees to be on this vote. He chose Renato and Zena. With 65% of votes, Renato was saved.
 * This week, the latest evictee would also be able to nominate.
 * The public was given the chance to choose a housemate to do their first nomination before the others. The public chose Carina and she nominated André A.
 * As the Leader, Pedro had to distribute boxes to 3 of his fellow housemates. Each number has a consequence or power for the nominations. Renato received 3 nominations power, André A.'s nominations were counted triple times, and a power to veto another housemate's nominations on tasks earlier during the week. He also had 2 nominations from the box given by Pedro and then he voided Carina's nomination, however, the public vote for her wasn't canceled. This means Carina only nominated one housemate.
 * André A., Carina and Jéssica F. were the original nominees. As a Leader, Pedro had the power to automatically nominate someone and he nominated Zena.
 * On Day 90, Carina left the house due to personal reason. The public vote for her was voided and it continued between the rest of the nominees.
 * For Week's 14 Leader competition, housemates and ex-housemates voted for who they considered the best player of the season. Pedro received the most votes and was re-elected as the Leader.
 * Due to Carina's decision to leave the house, on the eviction show on Day 92, it was only revealed the nominee with the most votes was saved, which was Zena. Week 13’s eviction was postponed until Week 14 and the voting between André A. and Jéssica F. continued through Week 14, one of them would eventually be evicted on Day 99.
 * On Day 95, Andreia and Joana re-entered the house with the status of House Players, their task is to disturb the game of the housemates remaining in the house. Due to safety reasons, they didn't stay in the Main House but the Command Post.
 * After André A.'s eviction, the first passport to the finale was given. Through a series of challenges between the housemates, Renato and Zena were the winners and therefore put on a quick public vote to determine which one of them would be the first finalist. With 56% of votes, Zena became the first finalist. The other 3 housemates were then automatically nominated for the last eviction.
 * In the Final Week, the public voted for their favourite to win the competition.

Carol Delaney

Carol Lowery Delaney (born December 12, 1940) is an American anthropologist and author. She is also an Associate Professor of Cultural and Social Anthropology, Emerita of Stanford University.

Education
Delaney earned an A.B. in philosophy from Boston University in 1962, an M.T.S. from Harvard Divinity School in 1976, and her Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from the University of Chicago in 1984.

Academic Career
Delaney was the assistant director of the Center for the Study of World Religions at Harvard University, and a visiting professor in the Department of Religious Studies at Brown University. She is now a professor emerita at Stanford University and a research scholar at Brown University.

Anthropological work
She specializes in the anthropological sub-discipline of cultural anthropology, focusing on gender and religion. Her original anthropological fieldwork was conducted in Turkey from 1979-1982. Additional fieldwork was conducted in Belgium, 1984–85, among Turkish immigrants. Recent research has focused on the religious beliefs of Christopher Columbus.

Delaney was Assistant Director of the Center for the Study of World Religions, Harvard University, 1985-87. At Stanford University, she was Assistant Professor of Anthropology, 1987-1995; Associate Professor, 1995-2005; Emerita, 2005. At Brown University, she was Visiting Professor in Religious Studies, 2006 and 2007. From 2007 to the present, she served as a Research Scholar in that department and is also an Invited Research Scholar at the John Carter Brown Library at Brown University.

Delaney has been criticized for whitewashing the history of and ignoring the known atrocities committed by Christopher Columbus in the Americas in her book Columbus and the Quest for Jerusalem, while also praised for highlighting that Columbus has taken the blame for atrocities committed by all Europeans intentionally and unintentionally to native peoples in the "New World".

Introduction to Philosophical Logic/Consistency and Inconsistency

=Consistency and Inconsistency=

Logic is a study of the consistency of beliefs. A belief is part of a psychological state in which a person thinks, is under an impression or believes that the universe has some property. They are readily represented by sentences, a linguistic interpretation. Such sentences can then be evaluated for truth.

Truth
What is truth? What sort of thing could be considered true?

 * 1) Shut that door!
 * 2) Are you going to the party?
 * 3) Would that I were not hungry.
 * 4) A panda eats shoots and leaves.

Of the above sentences, only one, it seems, is capable of being assigned a truth value (considered true or false). The last sentence is true, but what of the others? The first is a command. It can be obeyed or disobeyed, but cannot be true (or false). The second is a question and again cannot be true or false. The third expresses a wish; it may be true that the person uttering it wishes he or she were not hungry, but it itself cannot be evaluated for truth. It shall be said that only declarative statements are evaluable for truth.

A test, perhaps, for determining if a sentence is declarative or not is to ask if the following question is a meaningful, grammatical question in English:

 * Is it true that P?

where P is the sentence being analysed.

 * 1) Is it true that shut that door?
 * 2) Is it true that are you going to the party?
 * 3) Is it true that would that I were hungry?

None of the above is meaningful English. These therefore fail the test.

So what is it for a declarative sentence to be true. There are many truth theories, each defining truth slightly differently. The definition of truth adopted in this book comes from the correspondence theory, which states that a sentence P is true if and only if the state of affairs designated by P obtains; "it is true that P" is true if P. Falsehood is similarly defined for a sentence: a sentence is false if the state of affairs it designates do not exist. Although this seems straightforward and platitudinous, there are complications, explanation of which roams outside the scope of this book. The reader is urged to investigate these!

For the sake of simplicity it will be assumed that all declarative sentences are true or false and so, if a sentence is true, its negation is false. The negation of a sentence P is any sentence that shares its meaning precisely with the sentence

it is not the case that P.

Definition of Consistency
Logic is concerned with the consistency of sets of sentences (used to represent beliefs) and with consistent outcomes to processing logical formulae containing operands and operatives. A set of sentences is said to be consistent if and only if there is at least one possible situation in which they are all true. So, the following set of sentences is consistent:

 * 1) Grass is green.
 * 2) It is not the case that the moon is green.
 * 3) Most humans have ten fingers.
 * 4) Grasshoppers have six legs and dogs have four.
 * 5) Earth is a cube.

Note that not all of the sentences are true (sentence 5). However, if the Earth were a cube, it need not be that any of the other sentences are false. There is a possible situation in which they are all true. In this way, logicians are not interested as such in the actual truth value of a sentence (whether it is in fact true or false), but more in a sentence's possible truth values.

Consider the following English sentences:

 * 1) The moon is entirely constituted from cheese.
 * 2) The moon is only partly constituted from cheese.

There is no possible situation in which 1 and 2 are both true, that is to say, it is impossible for them both to be true at the same moment. Such a pair of sentences are said to be inconsistent. A set of sentences is said to be inconsistent if there is no possible situation in which they are all true.

A set of sentences may consist of only one sentence. In which case, if there is a possible situation in which that sentence is true, the sentence is said to be consistent. If there is no such situation, the sentence is said to be inconsistent.

For example, "grass is green" and "snow is blue" are examples of consistent sentences (and the set containing them and only them is consistent). The sentences "grass is green" and "grass is blue" (when taken individually) are consistent sentences, but any set containing them both is inconsistent.

The sentence "2+2=5" is inconsistent. There is no situation in which it is true.

If two sentences cannot be both true and cannot be both false, they are said to be contradictory. For example, "Socrates was a philosopher" and "Socrates was not a philosopher" are contradictory statements.

If two sentences cannot be both true at the same time (form an inconsistent set), they are said to be contrary. For example, "I have exactly 10 fingers" and "I have exactly 9 fingers" are contrary (both statements cannot be true, but both could be false). All contradictory statements are contrary.

Logical Possibility and Necessity
What exactly is meant by possible where it is used above? The type of possibility being considered is logical. If something is considered logically possible, it could have been the case that it was true, regardless of whether it is actually true or not. So, it could have been true that Charles I was not beheaded, for example if he had evaded the executioner, or that the moon is made of cheese, if, for example, the universe was slightly different to how it actually is.

Necessity can be defined in terms of possibility. It is, for example, impossible that Charles I was both beheaded and not beheaded, i.e. it is not possible that he was beheaded and not beheaded. A statement about impossibility is a statement about necessity, i.e. the way things must be. To say something is impossible is to say that no possible situation exists where it is true. If no situation exists where it is true, it must be false - it is necessarily false and so its negation is necessarily true.

 * 1) It is not the case that P is possible.
 * 2) It must be the case that it is not the case that P is true.

The reader should strive to understand that 2 follows from 1 (and indeed that 1 follows from 2) before continuing. Some examples will clarify this (and extend the idea):

*It must be that two plus two does not make five.
 * 1) *It is not possible that two plus two makes five.

*It must be that four is the square of two.
 * 1) *It is not possible that four is not the square of two.

*According to the definition above, it could not be that a sentence were neither true nor false.
 * 1) *According to the definition above, it must be that a sentence is either true or false.

A sentence that describes a state of affairs that is not possible is said to be necessarily false. A sentence the negation of which describes a state of affairs that is not possible is said to be necessarily true.

Japanese/Contributor's Guide

This page aims to help potential contributors better understand the principles behind the current work and give ideas for how best to add new material.

Structure to follow
This book has been restructured so many times but there is an effort under way to merge some of the duplicate material.

A syllabus and lesson plan was created for the so-called "Practical Lessons". This may be useful for future contributors, but never turned out any lessons.

User:Retropunk sorted the JLPT 4 grammar list. This is now up at Sugu ni Hajimemashō where it is being sorted into a lesson plan.

Lessons
There are many ways to organise a lesson, this is one:
 * 1) Dialogue (by posters, conversations, or whatever.)
 * 2) Discussion of Vocabulary in Dialogue
 * 3) * Discuss various uses of vocabulary if necessary (e.g., politeness)
 * 4) * Optional links to dialogues for previously learned vocabulary
 * 5) Grammar
 * 6) * Discuss grammar points, giving more examples if necessary.
 * 7) * Link to previous grammar points (maybe by categories)
 * 8) Optional Quick Review
 * 9) Optional link to Wikiversity for practice work.

Reading material

 * 1) Text (poster, conversation, literary text or anything fitting the level)
 * 2) Vocabulary
 * 3) * List new vocabulary.
 * 4) * Discuss various uses of vocabulary where appropriate (e.g., politeness)
 * 5) Grammar
 * 6) * Discuss grammar points, giving more examples if necessary.
 * 7) * Link to previous grammar points (maybe by categories)
 * 8) Optional Quick Review
 * 9) Optional link to Wikiversity for practice work.

Romanisation
Learning the Japanese scripts will give the student useful insight into the language that the simple (and limited) romanisations cannot offer. Romanisation (rōmaji) should, therefore, only be used in introductory lessons to assist with the learning of the kana, and in the reference guides. Kana and kanji should be used in all subsequent lessons.

Please use the Wikipedia:Manual of Style for Japan-related articles. Specifically:

 * Consonants will be written using the Revised Hepburn system (s, sh, z, j, t, ts, ch, f)
 * "n" mora will be written n' before a vowel, or "y" (zen'aku, kon'yaku)

Examples:
 * しつ: shitsu
 * どうぞ: dōzo
 * えいご: eigo
 * せんぱい: senpai
 * せんや: sen'ya (as different from せにゃ senya)
 * : Tōkyō

The macrons (Ā,ā,Ē,ē,Ī,ī,Ō,ō,Ū and ū) are easily added through the edit interface by choosing "Romaji" in the drop-down list below the "Save page" button.

Furigana
The lessons make extensive use of furigana. Please use the following templates to insert furigana:

Conversations
For conversations with Japanese and English side by side, use Japanese conversation.

Patterns and examples
Sentence patterns and examples can be highlighted using the Japanese pattern and Japanese example templates.

Related modules
Linking to related modules makes it easier for readers to refer to past lessons (e.g. to brush up on topics), vocabulary lists (e.g. when practicing new sentence patterns) or other useful content (such as the ../Verb conjugation table/). The Japanese related template can be used to consistently style these links.

Vocabulary pages
Please place vocabulary lists on subpages of Japanese/Vocabulary and use Japanese vocabulary entry to structure them. The can be used to conveniently link to the list from lesson pages.

Stroke order
There is a project on the Wikimedia Commons to upload images and animations of the stroke order for characters. There are directions on how to contribute. It's easy with the use of some free programs. Please contribute so that we'll have a standardized reference for our Wikibook users.

WikiProject Biography Assessment

The article may be improved by following the WikiProject Biography 11 easy steps to producing at least a B article. -- Yamara 03:58, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

kibbutz visit: proposed clarification
The article currently says:

"she spent several months

volunteering in Beit Zera, a Kibbutz in

Israel.[angle bracket, open]ref[angle bracket, closed]http://www.jewishjournal.com/arts/article/big_bad_debra_20020308/[angle bracket, open]/ref[angle bracket, closed]"

That implies that she was part of the kibbutz. Here's a possible fix:

"she spent several months[this code would request someone to provide a support for this alleged duration; the existing citation seems not to give the duration]

visiting Beit Zera, a Kibbutz in

Israel.[angle bracket, open]ref[angle bracket, closed]http://www.jewishjournal.com/arts/article/big_bad_debra_20020308/. She has stated publicly and with amusement that the Internet has a growing "snowball" of claims that she had been part of a kibbutz in Israel, whereas the truth according to her is that she merely visited the kibbutz, as many young people do (also according to her statement). 2008-Jun-10 appearance by Debra Winger on WNYC radio's Leonard Lopate Show, archived at . [angle bracket, open]/ref[angle bracket, closed]"

Does this change seem okay? Thanks. Bo99 (talk) 15:03, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Hi Tvoz. Thanks for changing the article a bit on this point.  I think there is still a little room for fixing:  still the wiki article cites a Jewish Journal article that propagates the misconception that Winger "ran off to a kibbutz";  sooner or later someone is going to re-dump that vague misconception back into the wiki article;  one could/should preempt that mistake with maybe the proposed fixes above.  Also, "spent some time" in the current article version seems too vague for an encyclopedia.  Bo99 (talk) 17:04, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, sorry Bo - I hadn't seen this comment here, just picked up the inaccuracy listening to the Lopate interview. I think what she is saying is that she was on a youth program in Israel, during which they spent some time (unspecified amount) on a kibbutz etc. - my guess is that the kibbutz stay was more than a passing through visit but much less than running away to it. I'll try another fix. (By the way - if you want to show footnotes or other wiki markup in discussion here you can use the    and    commands before and after the markup. Let me know if that makes sense - if not, I'll try to explain it better.)  Tvoz / talk 17:25, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Oh, that's humorous, we were in sync in what we heard and when we edited.
 * I recall fairly clearly she used the word "visiting", or maybe "observing". I like your fixes.
 * Thanks also for the nowiki idea.Bo99 (talk) 17:41, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Any time - I was trying to think of  instead of  so it's a fair trade.  Reads fine now. Tvoz / talk 18:10, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Voice of E.T. ?
I recall this "fact" from the on-screen trivia while waiting to watch a movie at my local theater. Is this true? if it is, it's not referenced here, nor in the E.T. article. Wikihonduras 00:53, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
 * It is true, and it has been in this article for a long time - read "Career". Tvoz | talk 18:44, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

 * I guess it is false. No citation. David Spector 21:10, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

Polanski
This is a biography of Winger's life, subject to WP:BLP rules, so our first concern is that material be reliably sourced. However we also are concerned about the notability of material for a bio - are additions significant to the story of her life or are they just the most recent news about her, etc. At this point in my opinion her involvement in the Polanski story has not risen to the level of biography for Winger. The film community's support for him, and Winger's involvement in that, might rise to that level for Polanski's bio or more surely in the article 2009 arrest of Roman Polanski but they are not about Winger's life and career at this time. Perhaps as the story unfolds this will become more significant in her life, but not now - the IP's statement here that it is important to her doesn't make it appropriate to her bio at present. This is the standard Wikipedia approach to bios. Tvoz / talk 18:07, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
 * On reflection, I pretty much agree with Tvoz. Not a significant event in Winger's life, and the sources don't even make clear whether she is speaking personally or as a spokesman for the film festival jury which she chairs. Worth including in the article on the arrest itself, but as it stands not useful anywhere else.
 * And we've got 3RR issues with the anon (seems to be just one, despite multiple addresses) who keeps adding this back in without coming to talk page. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 18:34, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Latest addition incorrectly refers to Fox news which doesn't appear in the source and provides details of Polanski's case that belong in articles about him, not about Winger. Also, what makes anyone think this would belong in a section of her bio called "personal life"?  Is there a campaign going on here?  Tvoz / talk 18:53, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

I disagree. Inasmuch as this is a biography of Winger's life, what she says in a public capacity is noteworthy as it becomes part of the public record of her life. That is why I chose to include her remarks that were made as jury member of the Zurich Film Festival calling the Swiss authorities' actions "philistine collusion" and to properly source them. For you to remove them is nothing short of censorship. Pchas / talk

 * The other editors have explained that they removed the information for reasons of relevance to Winger's overall biography.  Unless you have the psychic ability to read their minds, you have to accept the reasons they gave, even if you disagree with their actions.   State your case, as you have, but don't categorize the actions of other editors as censorship when they have explained.   I also feel that the comment is of little relevance to Winger's overall story at the moment and unless it develops into something more, it's not needed.   I also find it interesting, that although Winger has a reputation for being outspoken on a number of social and political topics, this is the only one considered worth mentioning.   This also places WP:UNDUE weight on this one comment.  If you want to write a section about Winger's statements/causes I would consider this suitable as part of that kind of discussion, but not in isolation. Rossrs (talk) 00:57, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Why do you feel appearing in movies is of more importance than speaking out on the world stage regarding the release of a convicted rapist? I mean come on, really. She thought is was important enough to speak to the world. Why should her own convictions be censored on her own wiki page. It seems pretty shallow to only talk about how she feels about Richard Gear and the like but omit her feelings about her friend Roman Polanski. Oh can you please source all of the stuff about her disliking her co-stars, or do we only need to source the details of her life you would like to censor? <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 02:47, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

 * Well, basically .... because she's an actress.  She's not a social commentator, a lawyer, a politician or a journalist.    She's an actress with an opinion.   Is it her opinion, or that of the film festival jury?   Do you know?  Care?     But that is not what I said - or anybody said - at all.  I said that Winger is an outspoken person - she is known for saying what she thinks about a lot of things.      My point was WHY do we only care about what she said about Polanski?  Because it's a hot topic and everyone wants to jump on it?   That's not a good enough reason.  Are you interested in having her views on a range of topical issues conveyed, or just this one?     I also said that if her comments about Polanski were given as one example of her various outspoken remarks, it would not constitute WP:UNDUE weight in relation to this one topic.    A few points to ponder.   Does her acting expertise make her qualified to speak on the world stage about anything other than acting?   Specifically the legal and moral aspects of a contraversial rape case that she was not personally involved in?   Should we be giving her a platform to put forward her viewpoint on any subject other than acting?   I don't know the answers to these questions; they're something to think about.   You're right in saying the comments about Richard Gere etc are crap, and to put it bluntly, this is not a very good or comprehensive article,  but several wrongs don't add up to a right.  Winger is known as a prickly person.  How relevant is it?  I don't know.  Not very, probably.   If you think the article could lose the Richard Gere and other co-star comments, as currently written,  I would agree with you on that.    Please don't confuse the various reasons editors may have for omitting information with censorship.   It's an easy conclusion to draw, probably too easy, but it's not necessarily correct, especially when the editors have given their reasons before you cried censorship.  Rossrs (talk) 08:37, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Rossrs, you have some valid points. But at what point is an actress or actor more than just an actress or actor. Saying an actress is just an actress and cannot be more than that seems to place them in a small box. Most activist whether political or environmental usually, not always, have reached some sort of popularity by other means than just being an activist. When a person gets on the world stage and speaks about controversial subjects with the desire to change an outcome they have placed themselves into the activists role. Dpitts428 (talk) 16:16, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

 * I agree with you.  My main point was (and is) that she has commented on a range of issues.   Some of her opinions may be quite insightful, and may help enormously in making the article more comprehensive, but nobody's interested enough to report them here.   She makes a comment about Polanski and it's seized upon as if she has finally said something quotable.   To report that comment, and only that comment,  places undue weight on it, but true enough it places her in the role of activist.    I was also responding to the question "Why do you feel appearing in movies is of more importance ...." which is a very odd question to ask about someone who is a professional actor.  Rossrs (talk) 20:37, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

As you know authors of articles write what is of interest to them. Should we delete a creditable addition to a bio article just because other authors have not written other quotes or published opinions of the person. If you find the addition to have undue weight on it why not add other quotes or should we just delete the addition till other quotes are authored. How many other quotes enough, who decides. I thought wiki articles grow with each contribution. And for the (deletors) of creditable additions to just site "not notable" can be and in this case is censorship. I still do not know why it is not notable. Maybe other quotes she has made may also be notable. Please add them if you like, but don't delete contributions just because you do not want to read about it. I do not think Debra Winger would mind if it was included in her bio. She proudly endorsed Roman. Why do you mind? The "last changes" made were creditable and extremely neutral. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 00:19, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

 * I don't actually disagree with your comments (except your assertion that this amounts to censorship).  Personally, I don't mind that she "endorsed" Roman.  I respect that she lives in a society where she can speak freely, but it's still a question of overall relevance.   Numerous people have made comments about Polanski, but I don't think the comments belong in the articles of the people who said it.  We could easily pepper Wikipedia with a number of quotes, that collectively have some meaning but individually not so much.    It doesn't have a wider relevance to their biographies, and unless they continue to speak about Polanski, the current relevance will quickly diminish.  Handling current information per WP:RECENT isn't always easy.   I know you disagree, but I don't think Winger's quote is relevant in Winger's article.   It has some relevance to the article Roman Polanski, but the article that it is most relevant to (in my opinion) is 2009 arrest of Roman Polanski as part of a "collective" response/reaction.  Rossrs (talk) 09:47, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Hullaballo, Your last edit is at least consistent with your recent edits regarding source material. Although I do disagree with what you believe to be notable. Dpitts428 (talk) 02:58, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Hand in hand schools
I moved the paragraph about her interest in the Hand in Hand schools/ Arab-Jewish reconciliation in Israel out of "personal life" as that's not what that section is about. I'm not sure it belongs in the article at all, though - I left it in pending discussion,because at least the quote from her says that this was something she was "dedicating her life" to, which raises it to a level of notability - but I'd like to see some independent sourcing on this other than that from Hand in Hand, and would like to know what other editors think. As has been said, she has been involved in many causes - health issues, environmental, women's issues, human rights - so I am not sure we should include just one. Thoughts? Tvoz / talk 01:27, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
 * If you look at the Wikipedia pages any number of celebrities, political activity and other "causes" always appear in their Personal life sections - I was just following that tradition. Re the quote, the reference is to an article in the mainstream Haaretz newspaper, and so is sufficiently independent.  I inserted the reference pointing to the Hand in Hand site where the article is reproduced, because newspapers sometimes do not allow indefinite free access to their archive stories.  Also, there are links on that page to parallel articles in the Los Angeles Jewish Journal, Jerusalem Post, etc.  However, we could have it point directly to Haaretz instead, if that's better. Arikk (talk) 06:08, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I think the subheaders were needed, and they could also fit under the Personal Life section.  I think it's a point well worth making, because she's backed up her words with actions, and said she would dedicate a portion of her life to this activity.   Different to (for example) the Polanski comment, which seems to be a one-off comment.   This is the kind of structure that can be expanded so that other activities can be included.   Looks good to me.  Rossrs (talk) 06:47, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Arikk, I actually hadn't looked at the source when I made the edit (shame on me - I should have), so of course you're right that it's probably better to use a secondary source that will remain active than a primary source that may not. I fixed the citation to give that information. As for the placement of the material I can see how it could fit in "personal life", but to me her activism is more professional than personal so I've changed the header accordingly. I'm open to moving it back if editors think it fits better there, so let's see where this goes.  There are more citeable examples of her activism, which should be added to round out that section, as Rossrs suggests.  And her acting career should be expanded as well - for example, when she was at Harvard she did a stint at the American Repertory Theater that could be added - I'll look for a good reference.  Tvoz / talk 07:42, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

The career section needs to be rewritten
The career section currently is a bit of a hodge-podge, the result of uncoordinated contributions from various editors (which includes me). There should be an unbroken accounting of her various film roles, then notes about her assorted acting awards, and then end with the paragraph about her being "hard to work with". This would give it a much more professional reading. __<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 16:10, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

 * The Television list goes thru 2021, But "Stranger Things" is not included. Any reason why? <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 19:14, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

The whole cast?
I'm guessing the reason the entire cast of this one show, unlike all her other work, is listed is because... Someone is trying to promote it?

"In 2013 she starred in three episodes of In the Woods,[22] the first installment of Jennifer Elster's multimedia, experimental film series The Being Experience, also including: Terrence Howard, Dave Matthews, Rufus Wainwright, Karen Black, Will Shortz, Liya Kebede, Questlove, Famke Janssen, Moby, Gale Harold, Paz de la Huerta, Jorgen Leth, Rosie Perez, Aubrey de Grey, and Alan Cumming." — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 06:00, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

Why?
"When Barbara Walters interviewed Bette Davis in 1986, Davis said, "I see a great deal of myself in Debra Winger." Not sure why this information is included in this article. I know very little about Ms Davis so a quote from her saying she 'sees' Ms Winger in herself is pretty much meaningless. If their personalities are similar it's a leap to assume this is common knowledge to all who may read this article. I was tempted to remove that sentence, but maybe there is a 'good' reason for it's inclusion that I am unaware of at this point. Thoughts? THX1136 (talk) 21:59, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
