User:Vuara/CHAPTER V (MMY Gita)

CHAPTER V

 * 1) Arjuna said: Thou praisest, O Krishna, renunciation of action and Yoga (of action) at the same time. Tell me decisively which is the better of these two.
 * 2) The Blessed Lord said: Both renunciation and the Yoga of action lead to the supreme good. But of the two, the Yoga of action is superior to the renunciation of action.
 * 3) Know him to be ever a man of renunciation who neither hates nor desires; free from the pairs of opposites, he is easily released from bondage, O mighty-armed.
 * 4) The ignorant, and not the wise, speak of the path of knowledge (Sankhya) and the path of action (Yoga) as different. He who is properly established even in one gains the fruit of both.
 * 5) The state attained by men on the path of knowledge is also reached by those on the path of action. He who sees Sankhya and Yoga to be one, verily he sees.
 * 6) Renunciation is indeed hard to attain without Yoga, O mighty-armed. The sage who is intent on Yoga comes to Brahman without long delay.
 * 7) Intent on Yoga, pure of spirit, he who has fully mastered himself and has conquered the senses, whose self has become the Self of all beings, he is not involved even while he acts.
 * 8) {Verses 8, 9 together}
 * 9) One who is in Union with the Divine and who knows the Truth will maintain 'l do not act at all'. In seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, eating, walking, sleeping, breathing, speaking, letting go, seizing and even in opening and closing the eyes, he holds simply that the senses act among the objects of sense.
 * 10) He who acts giving over all actions to the universal Being, abandoning attachment, is untouched by sin as a lotus leaf by water.
 * 11) By means of the body, by the mind, by the intellect and even by the senses alone, yogis, abandoning attachment, perform action for self-purification.
 * 12) He who is united with the Divine, having abandoned the fruit of action, attains to lasting peace. He who is not united with the Divine, who is spurred by desire, being attached to the fruit of action, is firmly bound.
 * 13) Having renounced all action by the mind, the dweller in the body rests in happiness, in the city of nine gates, neither acting nor causing action to be done.
 * 14) The Lord creates neither the authorship of action nor the action of beings; nor does He create the link between (the doer), the action and its fruit Nature carries this out.
 * 15) The all-pervading Intelligence does not accept the sin or even the merit of anyone. Wisdom is veiled by ignorance. Thereby creatures are deluded.
 * 16) But in those in whom that ignorance is destroyed by wisdom, wisdom, like the sun, illumines That which is transcendent.
 * 17) Their intellect rooted in That, their being established in That, intent on That, wholly devoted to That, cleansed of all impurities by wisdom, they attain to a state from which there is no return.
 * 18) In a brahmin endowed with learning and humility, in a cow, in an elephant, in a dog and even in one who has lost his caste, the enlightened perceive the Same.
 * 19) Even here, in this life, the universe is conquered by those whose mind is established in equanimity. FIawless, indeed, and equally present everywhere is Brahman. Therefore they are established in Brahman.
 * 20) He who neither greatly rejoices on obtaining what is dear to him, nor grieves much on obtaining what is unpleasant, whose intellect is steady, who is free from delusion, he is a knower of Brahman, established in Brahman.
 * 21) He whose self is untouched by externaI contacts knows that happiness which is in the Self. His self joined in Union with Brahman, he enjoys eternal happiness.
 * 22) All pleasures born of contact are only sources of sorrow; they have a beginning and an end, O son of Kunti. The enlightened man does not rejoice in them.
 * 23) He who is able, even here, before liberation from the body, to resist the excitement born of desire and anger, is united with the Divine. He is a happy man.
 * 24) He whose happiness is within, whose contentment is within, whose sight is all within, that yogi, being one with Brahman, attains eternal freedom in divine consciousness.
 * 25) The seers, whose sins are destroyed, whose doubts are dispelled, who are self-controlled and take delight in doing good to all creatures, attain eternal freedom in divine consciousness.
 * 26) Disciplined men, freed from desire and anger, who have disciplined their thoughts and have realized the Self, find eternal freedom in divine consciousness everywhere.
 * 27) Having left external contacts outside; with the vision within the eyebrows; having balanced the ingoing and outgoing breaths that flow through the nostrils,
 * 28) The sage, whose senses, mind and intellect are controlled, whose aim is liberation, from whom desire, fear and anger have departed, is indeed for ever free.
 * 29) Having known Me as the enjoyer of yagyas and austerities, as the great Lord of all the world, as the friend of all beings, he attains to peace.

Reverted
Here is the material that an anonymous user posted and which I reverted because he had blanked the previous page, the Capitalization of the section headings was wrong, there was bad formatting of the quoatations and there were, most impirtantly, no refernces (in short, it looked like a complete mess). Nevertheless, there seems to be some intersting an valuable material in here which I am not able to verify, so I wil post it here for others to read and see what can be verified and included in the article:

The Botanical Garden, founded in 1545, is the most ancient university botanical garden in the world. It was set up on deliberation of the Venetian Republic Senate and it was devoted to the growth of medicinal plants, the so-called “simple” plants” which produced natural remedies. That is why the first botanical garden was called “Garden of simple plants”. The botanical garden would help students to distinguish real medicinal plants from false ones. A circular wall enclosure was built to protect the garden from the frequent night thefts occurring, in spite of the severe penalties(fines, prison, exile) provided by the law. The Garden was steadily enriched with plants from all over the world particularly from the countries that had commercial exchanges with Venice and consequently Padua had a leading role in the introduction and study of many exotic plants. A herbarium, a library and many laboratories were gradually added to the Botanical Garden. As many other foreign and Italian universities, the Botanical garden carries ant an intensive didactic activity as well as, many researches and cares for the preservation of many rare species. In 1997 the Botanical Garden was included in the UNESCO World Heritage list.

THE ARCHITECTURE

In the first half of the 16th century there was an extraordinary development in public building: a new powerful wall was raised and Andrea Moroni realised some of the most important public monuments in Padua such as Santa Gustina basilica in Prato Della Valle, the town hall and the university. Tradition has it that the republic of Venice assigned to Moroni the realisation of the garden. As a matter of fact it had been planned by Daniele Barbaro, a Venetian nobleman who was a person of vast learning and translator of Vitruvio’s “De Architectura”. He followed the example of medieval Horti Conclusi,(enclosed gardens), while the powerful architecture was marked by a perfect pattern of a square within a circle, divided into four parts by two paths oriented according to the Cardinal points. The Garden was built in such a short time that it was inaugurated in 1543 while lessons were started the following year. At the end of the 16th century the garden was also enriched with many fountains fed by a gigantic wheel hydrophore whose main purpose was to guarantee a proper irrigation. The current aspect of the principal palace dates backs to 17th and 18th century. In 1704 the four gates and the gateways were built with huge embellished acroterions in red stone topped by plants made of wrought iron. In the first half of the 18th century along the external perimeter the wall was refined by a balustrade made of Istria Stone on which vases and half-length portraits of important characters were placed. The statue of Teophfrastus was built in the same century beside the south door as well as the statue of Solomon, (signed by Antonio Bonazza), local point for the east door and the four seasons fountain, which was enriched with 18th century portraits made of Carrara marble. In the garden there are also three sundials: a cubic one, a circular one and a cylindrical one. In the first half of 19th century the greenhouses and the botanic theatre were built and half length portraits of eminent botanists such as Carlo Linneo were placed on the cornice. One of the greenhouse still maintains its arches and its small cast-iron columns.

THE TREES

Until 1984 there was a Vitex agnus-castus whose presence had been aknowledged since 1550. At present the oldest plant is a palm planted in 1585 called “Goethe palm”, because the poet quoted it in his essay “The Metamorphoses of Plants”; this palm is situated in a hothouse inside Ortus Sphearicus, where there is also a ginkgo and a magnolia, dating back to the mid 1700’s, which are regarded as the oldest in Europe. A gigantic plane tree has been living in the outside Arboretum since 1680; it has a hollow trunk, owing to a lightning. In the Arboretum there is also a sectioned trunk of an elm tree, which died in 1991, with marked year rings.

THE COLLECTIONS

Owing to shortage of hothouses the plants are mainly located outdoor. The plants currently grown are about 6000 and they are arranged according to taxonomic, utilitarian, ecological-environmental and historical standards. The systematic collection is concentrated in the four biggest central flowerbeds. Among the utilitarian collections medicinal plants are the most important. The plants are classified according to Engler taxonomy, based on the phylogenetic relationships among the families. Each plant is labelled with its scientific noun and its principal therapeutical properties. A poisonous plants collection has recently been set up with didactic aims. Many of these poisonous plants are found also in the medicinal plants sector because in suitable quantities they can be used to treat illness and diseases. In the Botanical Garden there are also special collections of plants:

INSECTIVORES PLANTS: they grow in soils poor in nitrogen, for this reason they must take it from the proteins of some small insects they capture with their leaves. MEDICINAL AND POISONOUS PLANTS: these plants represent the original purpose for the foundation of the botanical garden. PLANTS FROM EUGANEAN HILLS AND TRIVENETO REGION: this is a collection of representative plants from the Euganean Hills and the area surrounding the garden. There is also a section devoted to the collection, preservation and study of plants in danger of extinction. PLANTS INTRODUCED INTO ITALY THROUGH THE GARDEN: opposite the hothouses you can find plants originally introduced into Italy by the garden end after wards throughout Italy. The year of introduction is marked on the label.

THE HABITATS

Some natural habitats have been rebuilt were typical plants are grown.

--Lacatosias 11:53, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
 * MEDITERRANEAN MAQUIS: it’s the typical coastal vegetation of all the Mediterranean basin with a climate characterised by hot summers andmild winters. The scrub is composed of a thick evergreen underbrush and trees as well as many climbing plants, often with thorns, which make it impenetrable.
 * ALPINE GARDEN: this is the typical alpine area, set above the mountain wood, characterised by tracts of rocky detritus kept together by the roots of the plants: shrubs, small twisted trees such as the mugho pine and the dwarf juniper.
 * FRESH WATER HABITAT: here water plants are grown in many tanks. Even if they belong to different families, these plants undergo similar adaptations caused by the water habitats.
 * SUCCULENT PLANTS: a typical desert habitat is reconstructed in spring and summer where succulent plants are grown.
 * ORCHID GREENHOUSES: this greenhouse is shady and humid. This hot humid micro-habitat allows the cultivation of tropical forest plants.

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/1940 Mandatory Palestine v Lebanon football match/archive2

1940 Mandatory Palestine v Lebanon football match

 * Nominator(s): Nehme1499 (talk) 17:35, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Following a substantial peer review, and having already brought the article to GA, I'm looking to nominate this page to FA. The article is about an association football friendly match in 1940 between the Lebanon national team, and the Mandatory Palestine national team (the precursor to today's Israel national team). With this year marking the 80th anniversary of the match, I thought it was a good idea to push for a FA nomination. I'm open to any comments and improvements, so just let me know if anything needs to be changed! Nehme1499 (talk) 17:35, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Comments Support from Kosack

 * The lead is a little short, perhaps a third paragraph on the events after the game. Given the rather unique situation of both sides, it may be worth mentioning the changes that occurred after the game and when they played next.
 * Would you also include the analysis of the game itself (rather one sided, X player was good, Y and Z players were bad, etc.), or just everything "post-1940" (They arranged another friendly, Lebanon played these games after 1940, Mandatory Palestine became Israel and played these other games)? Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I'd just add the fact that Lebanon didn't play again until 1958 and also Palestine's change to Israel and their first match. Might be worth mentioning the only player from the game who won another cap after this also. Kosack (talk) 06:59, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 16:02, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Mention football somewhere in the first sentence of the background section. "tours by football clubs" perhaps?
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Clubs is a little repetitive with two uses in the first and second sentence.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * "chairman Jamil Sawaya visited family in Jerusalem and Jaffa.[2] An agreement was signed for the Lebanese team to visit Tel Aviv for a friendly match against Mandatory Palestine", I'm not really getting the connection here and feel like something's missing. How did he go from visiting family to arranging a friendly between two nations?
 * I think the idea is that, since Sawaya, the Lebanon FA chairman, was visiting Palestine, he thought to arrange a friendly between his country and Palestine since he was already there. The source used doesn't add anything more context than what is already present in the article. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * If the source specifically states the friendly was arranged during his visit, I'd probably started the second sentence with "During his visit, he helped arrange..." or something similar, just to link the sentences more. Kosack (talk) 07:02, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Just noticed that the ref included (No. 2) actually mentions a friendship and meetings with the president of the Israel Football Association (or the corresponding Palestine version at the time I'm assuming?). This would provide much more context as to how the match came about. Kosack (talk) 07:20, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Ah, Google Translate ate up most of that part. I had to translate sentence by sentence to see that (instead of the whole paragraph at once). I've included the details. Nehme1499 (talk) 16:02, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Why did the team have to arrive individually?
 * Again, the sources don't add any context. I'm guessing for financial reasons? Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * "was called as the compiler of the team", not sure this works. Called doesn't really work I feel and "compiler" is an odd term to use as well.
 * The idea is that Baar was the person calling up the players, while Weiss was the guy actually coaching during the match. I don't know how to replace the word "compiler" (it's the word used in the peer review). Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Um yeah, I wasn't 100% sure of the translation - that was a little literal (for the word מרכיב). I'd say you can paraphrase it and say Baar put the team together or that Baar selected the squad. --SuperJew (talk) 17:18, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * "No official coach was called up", I'm not sure you really "call up" a coach. Appointed, perhaps?
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Tel Aviv and Maccabiah Stadium both over linked in the match section.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * What unofficial games had Lebanon previously played? Any worth noting here?
 * Lebanon has played quite a few friendlies against some European clubs (from Romania and Austria), as well as against a Damascus XI and against the France Military team. How would you include this information? Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * A brief mention would be worth including, just mentioning the major matches and perhaps note that they were not ratified by FIFA. Kosack (talk) 07:09, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 16:02, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * John Blackwell is red linked, is he likely to be notable enough for an article? There's also some inconsistency with the linking, he's linked in the lead but not the infobox, he's linked in the match details but not the main text.
 * Theoretically he would be notable (as he has refereed in an official FIFA-sanctioned football game), however as of now all I could write about him is "John Blackwell was a English football referee. He refereed in the 1940 friendly game between Mandatory Palestine and Lebanon". Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * The first goal is stated as being in the first minute, but the RSSSF has the second minute. Does the offline ref support the first minute?
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Avraham Schneiderovich is used in the text, but Avraham Schneiderovitz is listed in the match details?
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure we need the club sides of Meitner and Schneiderovich, especially as they are the only ones mentioned in this way.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * "they failed to score against goalkeeper Benjamin Mizrahi", is this just a generalisation or did Mizrahi make saves?
 * I've asked a person who has the book. When he gets back to me I'll let you know. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 14:40, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Link captain to Captain (sports).
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Baar is over linked in the second half.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I would avoid using red links like Zalman "Dzampa" Friedmann and Zvi "Doctor" Erlich. If these were to be created, they wouldn't be done in that manner with the first name and nickname included, so the red links would remain anyway.
 * "Dzampa" and "Doctor" are just "piped-in"; the actual red links don't have the nicknames. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I'd still be looking to stick to one name. For example, I wouldn't expect to see Javier "Chicarito" Hernández in a match listing. Kosack (talk) 07:09, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Makes sense. Nehme1499 (talk) 16:02, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Quite a few repeat links in the Post-match section, Mizrahi, Kaspi, Baar, Cordahi, Jaroudi etc.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * The RSSSF external link is already used frequently as a red so there's no need to include it there either.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

This is what I picked out on an initial run through. Something to get you started. Kosack (talk) 12:16, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your comments. I've amended some of the issues you pointed out (and commented on the rest). Nehme1499 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

A few more minor points
 * "located on the banks of the Yarkon River estuary", might be worth adding "in Tel Aviv" at the end here.
 * "with their own football boots", I wouldn't think there was anything unusual about a player arriving with his own football boots, especially in the 1940s, unless I'm missing some context behind this?
 * "coach at the time, was spending time", the double use of time is a little repetitive here.
 * The Post-match section has a lot of repetition of first names. Generally, first names are not needed after the first mention. Kosack (talk) 09:19, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Should have taken care of everything. Nehme1499 (talk) 16:07, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Last points

 * "Mandatory Palestine scored in the first minute of the game", the rest of the article has the goal being scored in the second minute.
 * "Shalom Shalomzon was the only player of the game to make an appearance for Israel", I realise that Lebanon didn't play another game for 13 years, so it's kind of obvious that none of their players would have won another cup, but I would change the sentence to something like "make another international appearance, playing for Israel..." Just to emphasise the point of him being the only one in the entire game to do so.
 * Link United States to their national side.

A few more minor points from the additions made. I think this is probably about it for me then. Kosack (talk) 07:55, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Went ahead and fixed those points up (mostly because I'm bored in quarantine). --SuperJew (talk) 08:11, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I'd hope for a user more versed in the nitty gritty of copyediting to go over this as well but, in terms of content and structure, I'm happy to support this. Kosack (talk) 11:35, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for taking care of those points! Note that Camille Cordahi may have played in the 1950s for Lebanon (I'm still investigating); he played until the mid 1960s aged 40+, so it's not improbable that he may have played in 1953 (aged 34-ish). I've slightly amended the sentence. Nehme1499 (talk) 13:52, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Comments Support from Govvy
It's a good article at GA and feel it is a good point to get too, however I feel there are far to many red-links for FA. That's a major red-flag in my opinion towards FA. Govvy (talk) 21:51, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * If I were to create the 14 pages of Palestinian players who took part in the game, would you say that the article would be in a good position for FA? Nehme1499 (talk) 22:02, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Maybe there needs to be delinking. Govvy (talk) 22:11, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * All those players (bar one on the bench) satisfy WP:NFOOTY, so they are eligible for an article (also the referee, who officiated a FIFA match, satisfies NFOOTY). Nehme1499 (talk) 22:23, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Although it is a lot of work I suggest it would be wise to sort that out in order to support the promotion of this to FA in my opinion as an FA article shouldn't have vast amount of red-links. Govvy (talk) 22:27, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Out of interest, which of the four Featured article criteria do you feel the article fails due to those red links? Harrias  talk 09:06, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, I've only ever helped get History of Tottenham Hotspur F.C. but to your question, 1-b, a red-link to me means we don't have that information. And an FA article should be comprehensive which in my view should have all the information. I would assume that also in-view will refer to not just the article in question, but also have content covered by the linked in articles. So yes, red-links can be viewed under 1-b. And as you can see, there are rather a lot of them at present. Govvy (talk) 09:18, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Harrias, also, do you think it's appropriate to have a red-link in the lead for an article to be displayed on the front page of wikipedia? Govvy (talk) 09:22, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, per MOS:REDLINK: "red links have been found to be a driving force that encourage contributions". I disagree on your interpretation of 1b, but that's part of the joy of collaborative projects such as Wikipedia! Harrias  talk 09:47, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * This is where we disagree, red-links are good for encouraging to create articles, yes, however for the top articles, FA ones. I feel it's bad form for an FA to have a mass quantity of red-links, I see todays article has two red-links, I don't consider that too bad. But I don't think it should be encouraged, it should be limited down and the opening paragraphs should defiantly not have any. That's my two cents! Govvy (talk) 10:03, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

I should have taken care of the red links (there are only four remaining). Thoughts? Nehme1499 (talk) 18:21, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

It's looks much better, I had another read through.

 * No official coach was appointed as Egon Pollak, Mandatory Palestine's coach at the time, was spending time in Australia. This sentence doesn't seem to read quite right.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 14:28, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

 * In the summary Indeed, in the 60th minute Kaspi scored his second goal of the game. Do you need the word indeed there?
 * Indeed is to link to the previous sentence that notes the passage of attacking momentum to Palestine. Nehme1499 (talk) 14:28, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

 * In the post-match summary "[t]he goals that did get past him would have beaten any custodian" Does the T, need to be in brackets? I don't see that in the source provided.
 * I think the idea is that the source uses a capital "T", whereas the sentence structure in the article requires a lowercase "t". This was changed during the copyedit (see dif). Nehme1499 (talk) 14:28, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Regards Govvy (talk) 11:47, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I've also added a couple of sentences regarding the wind during the match, and Mizrahi's saves in the first half. Nehme1499 (talk) 14:28, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * It's looking and reading a lot better, my only qualm is the "indeed" and then you have it written again a sentence later. Other than that, I think the article is on the right track. Govvy (talk) 14:41, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I've removed the two "Indeed"s. Nehme1499 (talk) 14:46, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

 * I've looked through the article again, feels fine with me now. Happy to promote to FA. I give seniority to here know. Govvy (talk) 11:15, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Comments Support from Kaiser matias
I'll add a few comments. Apologies if they've been covered before:

 * "...the latter's first-ever official international match, and the former's last..." Curious why you went in this order ("latter" then "former"). I feel it would be more logical to go the opposite, but that's just my opinion, and not something I'll hold against the article. I also see that later on it notes Lebanon only (if I understand correctly) played clubs before, which I understand wouldn't be international matches anyways.
 * I saw it more as: first game first, last game last (rather than former first, latter last). I'm fine either way. And yes, the games vs clubs were unofficial games. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "...first-ever official international match..." I feel the "-ever" is redundant; just saying "first official international match" is sufficient.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "...Lebanese forward Camille Cordahi scored to become Lebanon's first official international goalscorer." Again, I feel the "official" is a redundant word. It's clear already this is Lebanon's first official match, so no need to repeat it. It comes up again later in the article, too.
 * True, but by removing "official" one might think that Lebanon hadn't scored in their unofficial games prior to 1940. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * " Shalom Shalomzon was the only Mandatory Palestine player of the game..." Again, I find the "of the game" part to not be necessary; the context of the article suggests Shalomzon was in the game.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * " Sawaya had friendly relations with several presidents of Palestinian football clubs, especially with the president of the Palestine Football Association." You don't happen to have the name of the PFA president? It would be good to have it here if so.
 * Unfortunately I don't. The Israel Football Association (successor to the PFA) only note the presidents from 1950 onwards (source). Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "They were told that each player had to go to the locker room at the stadium on their own. The players did not train for the game and, in the small dressing room, only 14 received the light-blue-and-white kit." Two things here: am I correct in understanding that the players had to go "on their own" meant there wasn't a team bus or something? And it says "only 14", but out of how many?
 * A source said 18 players were called up. Unfortunately, I can't find it anymore (probably it's one of the Hebrew newspaper scans, so it's impossible for me to find it). I'll remove the "only". As for the rest: yes, "on their own" would imply not going together in some sort of bus. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "Arthur Baar, an Austrian football coach, was in charge of selecting the team, sending out the call-ups to the players. Baar became the de facto coach as Egon Pollak, Mandatory Palestine's coach at that point, was spending time in Australia." I would move the mention of Mandatory Palestine up, as it is not clear at first who Baar is coaching. Something like "Arthur Baar, an Austrian football coach, was in charge of selecting the Mandatory Palestine team, sending out the call-ups to the players. Baar became the de facto coach as Egon Pollak, the team's coach at that point, was spending time in Australia."
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * The date of the match (27 April 1940) is repeated twice within three paragraphs. I see the point of doing so, but feel it is a little repetitive. As it was noted in the background section, I'd think you could remove the mention in the match section without hurting the flow, updating the wording of the following sentence: "The match was Lebanon's first official game..."
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "The match was played in Tel Aviv at the Maccabiah Stadium, which was decorated with the flags of both nations; around 10,000 spectators came to watch, many of whom were British." Again the stadium had been mentioned previously, so doesn't need to be said again. To simplify I'd say something like: "The stadium was decorated with flags of both nations, and around 10,000 spectators came to watch, many of whom were British."
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "In the first half, Mandatory Palestine played against the wind." Does it mention the strength of the wind at all? Seems that if it was noted there would be some idea of how important that detail is.
 * I don't think so (Hebrew book/newspaper scan, so I needed 's help). The idea is that, despite playing against the wind, Mandatory Palestine played better in the first half; same for Lebanon, they played better in the second half even though they played against the wind. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
 * To support Nehme1499's point, the source doesn't mention the strength of the wind, only it's direction. As I wrote on my talk page: Regarding the wind, Haaretz says that in the first half Eretz Israel played against the wind (נבחרת ארץ ישראל משחקת בתחלה נגד הרוח), and in the second half with the wind but that despite that there felt there was a recuperation by Lebanon (עתה משחקת נבחרת ארץ-ישראל עם הרוח, ובכל זאת מורגשת התאוששות אצל הלבנונים). --SuperJew (talk) 04:01, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "Mizrahi was especially praised for his two saves in the 18th and 23rd minute." Who did the praising here?
 * Eranrabl said: "The article also states that the two stops made on the 18th and 23rd minutes were "Hard shots" and that the crowd cheered those stops". I changed it to "...was especially cheered by the crowd for his two saves..." Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "Mandatory Palestine regained control of the game later in the first half and, in the 31st minute, Gaul Machlis scored Mandatory Palestine's third goal." These commas seem unnecessary; I'd just delete them and let the sentence flow like that.
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "The match was Lebanon's first official international, and their first official defeat. Mandatory Palestine's win was their first (and only) in an official match before they became the Israel national team after 1948." Like noted above, this repeats "official" a lot. I'd try and simplify it: "The match was Lebanon's first international, and their first defeat. Mandatory Palestine's win was their first, and only, in a match before they became the Israel national team after 1948."
 * Done. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "With his two goals, captain Werner Kaspi became the first player of the Israel national team (Mandatory Palestine's successor) to score a brace." It notes later that Kaspi never played for Israel, so is is accurate to say he was the first on the Israel national team to do this?
 * As FIFA recognizes a succession between M. Palestine and Israel, all of MP's records stand for Israel as well (as is the case with, for e.g., Macedonia and North Macedonia, or West Germany and Germany). Therefore, Kaspi scoring a brace statistically counts for Israel as well. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * There is mention of a planned rematch in 1941, but it never happened. Do you have any idea why it was cancelled?
 * No idea at all. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * "Regarding Palestine's 12 players involved, the match was the only cap for eight..." MOS:NUMNOTES says that you should be consistent with the numbers, either spelled out or in numerals, but not a mix. While either are good here, I'd lean towards numerals myself.
 * I did not know that. I was following the "9 and below" rule. Thanks for pointing that out. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

That's all from me. I will note that I'm coming from this as a Canadian with a more casual understanding of the sport (so not much on the specific jargon). Kaiser matias (talk) 22:37, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I should be done. Let me know if there is more. Nehme1499 (talk) 23:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * File:Mandatory Palestine v Lebanon, The Palestine Post.png This is incorrectly licensed, as it is not a photograph.

 * Hi, just wondering if the infobox image is ok. Nehme1499 (talk) 19:41, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * The infobox image (File:אצטדיון המכביה בתל אביב 1935 - iדר דוד עופרi btm233 (colour).jpeg) needs a source that it was taken in 1935. (if it was created 1946 or later, it would not be public domain) (t · c)  buidhe  20:25, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

 * "Should" in an artistic or legal sense? Nehme1499 (talk) 22:29, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Technically speaking WP:OR does not cover images, but amateur colorization is just that—making stuff up. There's no way to know if the colors in real life actually were as you portray them. Wikipedia's best articles should not use such images (t · c)  buidhe  22:33, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't think that colouring the grass green, the sky blue, the trees green, and the running track brownish/red is OR. But still, if you feel this way I've changed it to the b/w version. Nehme1499 (talk) 22:53, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, that's a good question: how do you know that, when this photograph was taken, the grass was green, rather than yellow or brown (as it is often in the summer where I live—Tel Aviv has the same dry summer climate)? (t · c)  buidhe  06:34, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

 * 10: d I find somewhat questionable. I recognize that the essecense of the statement is true but the paper doesn't use words like "efficiently" (although correct me if I'm wrong), maybe tweak to "They praised the Mandatory Palestine team's performance, but noted that the two full..."
 * It says sentences such as "rather one-sided", "scarcely a thrill", "far superior", "soccer of a much higher grade", "Palestine almost entirely monopolised the game". Nehme1499 (talk) 19:27, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

Warminster railway station

Warminster railway station serves the historic market town of Warminster in Wiltshire, England.

The station is operated by Great Western Railway and is a main station on the Wessex Main Line, with regular services to Bristol, Cardiff, Southampton and Portsmouth.

History
The station was opened by the Great Western Railway on 9 September 1851 as the terminus of its branch from Westbury on its Wilts, Somerset and Weymouth route. The branch was extended to Salisbury on 30 June 1856. The station was originally provided with a train shed covering the tracks and platforms, but this was removed around 1930 when the current canopies were erected in its place. The original wooden buildings were retained and are still in use today.

Services
Great Western Railway operate a generally hourly service in each direction from the station, westbound to Westbury, Bristol Temple Meads and Cardiff Central, and eastbound to Southampton Central and Portsmouth Harbour. A few additional GWR trains call at certain hours (some of which either originate or terminate here).

Connections
Once a year, a bus service (colloquially known as route 23A) runs from Warminster station to the uninhabited village of Imber.

Crest updated for 2023
The primary crest was updated in 2023 to add a third star, and to rearrange the stars into an arc over the top of the crest. For reference, the crest used in official branding and the club's goalkeeper kits is used on the club's website and available at high resolution at https://images.mlssoccer.com/image/upload/v1667262402/assets/por/thorns-fc/ThornsThreeStarsSquare.png.

2023 home kits are reused from 2022, and instead of reprinting the crest with the third star, the team appears to have affixed a third star directly above the 2022 two-star configuration, as photographed in their March 26 match: https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/photos/thorns-march-26-2023?assettype=image&family=editorial&phrase=thorns%20march%2026%202023&sort=mostpopular

2023 away kits use a stylized representation of the former four-color crest used from 2013 to 2017. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 17:34, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

Staplehurst Manor

Staplehurst Manor (also Staplers) was a manor house on the Isle of Wight,  situated in the parish of  Arreton.

It comprises the high ground to the north-west of Newport, and probably at one time included the land called Blacklands. It was parcel of the manor of Arreton, with which it was granted to Quarr, and is entered as a grange of that monastery in the survey of church lands in 1536. Its later history is identical with that of Arreton Manor.

The Death of Seneca (David)

The Death of Seneca is a 1773 oil-on-canvas painting by the French artist Jacques-Louis David, now at the Petit Palais in Paris. It shows the suicide of Seneca the Younger. With its Boucher-like assembly of gesticulating figures, it was his third attempt to win the Prix de Rome, but lost to a painting on the same subject by Pierre Peyron. Peyron's had fewer details and a darker colour palette and was closer to the 'antique'. He was not only David's rival, but also initiated the new classicism which partly inspired David to produce his 1774 Erasistratus Discovering the Cause of Antiochus' Disease.

Description
This "Fragonardian" grand opera by David is at the same time baroque, elegant and pompous. Richer in color and detail than its rival, it depicts characters gesticulating in the style of Boucher. Seneca, opening his veins on the orders of Nero, has ample gestures, just like the characters in the audience who show their dread.

Talk:Harry Lennix

Dot
Typical of Wikipedia run by one faction of the caretakers of the ENGLISH language: Searching for 'Harry J Lennix' nets nothing. You can after your failed search look inside Wikipedia articles for mention of 'Harry J Lennix' and then you'll find a link to 'Harry J. Lennix'. Notice 'J.' - there's a dot there.

The trouble is only the people in the US have this obsession with excessive punctuation; listing this actor as 'Harry J Lennix' (without the dot) is the common way to do things in all other countries. In fact the mention of 'Harry J Lennix' (without the dot) was found at a UK site.

That should be enough of a wakeup call for the US chauvinists running Wikipedia: if you insist on using this punctuation then make sure the references without it still lead to the correct articles; and if you're writing about people or things outside the US please remember that not everyone uses 'English' as you do and you are not even the primary (or definitive) location in the world for use of the language. It's called 'English' because its home country is 'England'. In most other countries your 'language' is most appropriately called 'American'.

Another good example of this is 'JK Rowling'. More often than not her initials do not have punctuation; she is very much a Brit; yet your 'American' article 'bastardises' her name.

Anatomy/Muscles

Muscles are comprised of fascicles, which are bundles of muscle fibers. Perimysium, a layer of connective tissue, surrounds each fascicle, and holds it together. Endomysium surrounds each muscle fiber, and epimysium surrounds the muscle itself.

Penetrating the muscle, are arteries, veins, and nerve fibers.

Skeletal muscle
The study of anatomy focuses primarily on skeletal muscles, muscles that are under voluntary nervous control. The five primary functions of skeletal muscle are maintaining body temperature, regulation of material entering or leaving the body, supporting soft tissue, aiding in the maintenance of posture, and aid in movement. There are three types of skeletal muscle fibers - fast, slow and intermediate skeletal muscle fibers. Fast fibers are powerful and can remain contracted for only about 0.01 seconds. These contractions generate more force than other fibers and use a significant amount of ATP. These fibers are also known as white fibers (associated with white meat). Weight training increases the size of fast fibers. Slow fibers, also known as red fibers (associated with red meat), react slowly to stimuli but can remain contracted for a long time. Slow fibers have a larger capillary network, aiding in the oxygenation of these fibers so that they can remain contracted for longer periods. Intermediate fibers are just that, fibers with properties in the spectrum between fast and slow fibers. Many fast fibers are slowly converted to intermediate fibers in endurance athletes, in relation to the extensiveness of their training.

Types of muscle
There are three types of muscle:
 * Skeletal

 * Cardiac: Muscle that are found only in the heart. They are specialised and autonomous, with intercalated discs between each cell. The nervous system has the ability to effect changes globally.

 * Smooth or visceral: Smooth or visceral muscels are not under voluntary nervous control. These muscles are found in blood vessels, the digestive system, etc. Smooth muscles are responsible for peristalsis, the slow movement of food along the gastrointestinal tract towards the anus.

Origin and Insertion
Muscles are usually partly described by their origin at one end and insertion at the other. These are points of muscle attachment to bones: the origin being the point that moves least under contraction and the insertion being the end that moves most. The origin is usually more proximal and the insertion more distal. Also, the connection at the origin is typically to a stronger/thicker bone. If a muscle arises from more than one place (as in the biceps or triceps), we say that it has two (or possibly more) heads.
