Talk:Nantlle Railway

Info Boxes
Quite frankly I am not happy about them in general since I fear they raise more problems then they solve and can easily mislead. To the extent that they contain valid information, they usually repeat material already in the article. In other respects they mislead by omitting information or by encouraging a wrong interpretation of the information. In the Nantlle Railway box we find five items:

Locale: Wales Dates: 1828 - 1966? Successor Line: abandoned Track gauge: Headquarters: Penygroes

The accompanying modest article, still described as a stub, is encyclopedic compared with the box. Of the five items only the first is completely accurate. The dates are frankly less than helpful, 1862 would be a more accurate terminal date for the Nantlle Railway. Surely the successor line was the Carnarvonshire Railway et al. The track gauge is only approximately accurate in respect of the original main line when it was being used by horse drawn wagons with double flanged wheels (only until 1866 or 1872, say) and also of the remnant (and most interesting) quarry feeder stub that I wished I had photographed when I visited it in 1958 and which is usually said to have closed in 1963. As for the headquarters, Penygroes is only true until about 1862 (I haven't checked this) the latest known headquarters c1966 shall we say Marylebone Station?

I really do wonder what purpose, other than decoration, the info boxes serve. NoelWalley 15:59, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

 * The purpose of the info boxes is to allow a standard way of describing the common features of a subject. Readers can go to a page and quickly compare the "vital statictics" without having to read the whole article. I agree that there is a question of what information to put into the info box, but I think the right approach is to fix the information rather than dismiss the entire notion of info boxes. Gwernol 16:21, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
 * If I appeared to be questioning the accuracy of the information, that I was not. In even this short article it is quite clear what is being talked about (i.e. a physical railway that has had five owning railway companies (including one that shared its name) and is now for the most part abandoned). Also, we know that the five owning companies had four different headquarters. It is impossible to see how that or any other info box could accurately epitomise the subject of this article and allow easy and useful comparison. This problem is not unique. To a greater or lesser extent almost all railways have similar circumstances. NoelWalley 17:32, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Hi again Noel. I think you were correct about the information being incorrect, as you can see I updated it. This simplifies a lot of the discussion, for example since this now just refers to the independent existence of the railway, as you suggested, there is no longer the complexity about the headquarters location. The discussion about info boxes is broader than than just the article: I'd suggest you bring it up at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Trains since its important. Best, Gwernol 17:50, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Hello Gwernol, Many thanks, I will think about your suggestion, Regards, NoelWalley 18:11, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Law of Uppland

The Law of Uppland (Upplandslagen; Codex iuris Uplandici) was the law that applied in Uppland, Sweden, from 1296 to the beginning of the 1350s.

It was drafted by a Royal commission, enacted at the three Folkland Things, and given Royal assent in 1296. The Law of Uppland became the law of the land, not only for the province of Uppland it created, containing the three Folklands and Roden, but also for Gästrikland. The law contained eight law codes: The Church, King's, Heritance, Freeman's, Land, Merchant's, Neighborhood, and Thing codes. Courts were held in each Hundred and each Folkland. There were no public prosecutors, and no material difference between criminal and civil cases existed. Suits in law would be initiated by the parties. Legal proceedings were of three kinds: trial by eyewitnesses, trial by compurgation and trial by jury.

Background
In early medieval Sweden, each Land (province) was judicially autonomous with its own legal system, laws and justice (leges terrae). The law originally only existed in a spoken form, recited at the Thing by the Lawspeaker. From the end of the 13th century, the oral laws began on private initiative to be recorded in the form of unofficial law texts (Rechtsbücher). From the Law of Uppland, however, the law codes were formally enacted.

Creation
The area of Uppland, which did not exist before the enactment of the Law of Uppland, contained the three Folklands of Tiundaland, Attundaland, and Fjärdhundraland. The Lawspeaker of Tiundaland, Birger Persson (the father of Saint Bridget) complained to King Birger Magnusson, that the law for the three Folklands were scattered in several different law texts, some of them obscure and sometimes very difficult to comply with. Hence the King appointed Birger chairman of a Royal commission that would draft a new law; removing some provisions, adding some, and merging the old laws of the three folklands into one.

According to the preamble of the Law, in addition to Birger, the commission came to consist of from Tiundaland, the Dean of Uppsala Master Andreas And (Birger's cousin), the Knights Herr Röd Keldorsson and Herr Bengt Bosson, Ulf Lagmansson, Hagbard of Söderby, Anders of Forkarby and Torsten of Sandbro; from Attundaland the Knight Herr Filip Röde of Rundby, Håkan Lawspeaker, Eskil the Cross-eyed, Sigurd Judge and Jon Gåsabog; from Fjärdhundraland Ulv of Önsta, Götrik and Ulvheden, Judges. The commission made a draft that was subsequently enacted by the Things of the three Folklands, and finally given Royal assent eight days after Saint Stephen's Day (January 2), 1296.

Jurisdiction
The Law of Uppland became the law of the land, not only for the province of Uppland it created, containing the three Folklands and Roden, but also for Gästrikland. Since the new law of the whole realm, the Magnus Erikssons landslag of 1350, lacked a church code due to opposition from the Church, the church codes of the several provincial laws remained in force even after 1350. Gradually the church code of the Law of Uppland became valid for the whole kingdom, remaining in force until it was partly replaced by the Church Act of 1686 and finally by stipulations in the Civil Code of 1734.

Formal content
The Church code governed the relationship between the Church, the Bishop, the Priest, the Parish, and the People, including marriage, baptism, and tithe. The King's code covered the election of Kings, and the relationship between the King and the People. It contained provisions concerning the People's obligation to the King, such as leidang, watch and ward, and taxes, as well as the King's obligation to uphold the Peace. The Heritance code governed inheritance and bequests; the Freeman's code was the nearest equivalent of a criminal code, aimed at protecting the Freemen from abuse. The Land code included clauses about birthright to land, property owned in common, and maintenance of the elderly. The Merchant code regulated purchase of gold, women's right of purchase, hospitality and foraging, as well as a prohibition against selling Christians. The Neighborhood code regulated division of land, metes and bounds, commons, new land, mills, dams and bridges, hunting, fishing, cattle and more. The Thing code included provisions about trials and lawsuits, as well as of the Law of the land and of the law of Roden. Eighteen amendments were later added to the law, including stipulations about burial fees, outlawry, deeding of land, and homicide by unknown perpetrators.

Courts and procedures
A Thing could be held as often as every week in each hundred, or in each Skiplagh (ship's district) in Roden. The judgments were given by the judge, not the assembly. There would be two judges for each thing, although only one served at the time. The judges were elected by a jury of twelve men appointed by the King's Lensmann, and thereafter commissioned by the King. Each Folkland also had a thing, under the Lawspeaker of Uppland. A common landsting for all of Uppland did not exist. Appeals from the Hundred thing would go to the Lawspeaker; from the Lawspeaker to the King.

There were no public prosecutors, and no material difference between criminal and civil cases existed. Suits in law would be initiated by the parties. A perpetrator caught in flagrante delicto would be taken as a prisoner to the Thing by the plaintiff; in other cases the plaintiff would serve a summons on the defendant. In cases of acts that could be atoned for by mulcts, the defendant could also initiate action by offering such at the Thing.

Legal proceedings were of three kinds: trial by eyewitnesses, trial by compurgation and trial by jury. If the plaintiff could bring, in most cases, six sworn free and freeborn men as eyewitnesses, the case was closed, and now further action from the defendant would be allowed; he was convicted. But if the plaintiff could not produce enough sworn witnesses, the defendant had the right to establish his nonliability by taking an oath and having, normally, eighteen men swear that they believed him. If the required number of men took the oath, he was acquitted, otherwise he was convicted. The use of jury trials is not guided by any clear legal principles, but through individual provisions in various parts of the law. A new jury (næfnd) would be selected for each new case. In trials concerning the King's Peace, the jurors had to be approved by both parties. In some other cases half the jury was selected by each party. The jurors took an oath on their verdict; if they refused to give a verdict, they were fined.

Editions
The Law of Uppland is preserved in five complete handwritten copies. The assent is preserved in both a Swedish and a Latin form. A printed version was published in 1607 by Johannes Bureus. The first scholarly edition was published in 1834. A translation to modern Swedish was published in 1933.

Russ Francis

Russell Ross Francis (April 3, 1953 – October 1, 2023) was an American professional football player who was a tight end for 13 seasons in the National Football League (NFL). He played for the New England Patriots and San Francisco 49ers. He was also a professional wrestler.

Francis finished his NFL career with 393 receptions for 5,262 yards and 40 touchdowns. He was inducted into the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame in 1993.

In 2021, the Professional Football Researchers Association named Francis to the PFRA Hall of Very Good Class of 2021.

Early life and career
Francis began high school at Kailua High School on Oahu, Hawaii, and finished at Pleasant Hill High School in Oregon, southeast of Eugene. He set the national high school record for the javelin as a senior in 1971 at 259ft 9in; the record stood until 1988. Francis was also a decathlete for Pleasant Hill.

College career
At the University of Oregon in Eugene, 6ft 6in Francis threw the javelin and played only 14 games of varsity football for the Ducks. Injured after three games as a sophomore in 1972, he played in 1973, but sat out his senior season in 1974.

Francis enrolled at rival Oregon State University in order to expire his collegiate eligibility and be eligible for the 1975 NFL draft. Briefly a pro wrestler, he trained for the Superstars competition and was selected in the first round by the New England Patriots, the 16th overall pick and signed in May.

New England Patriots (1975–1980)
During the Patriots 30–27 win in 1976 over the two-time defending Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers on September 26, Francis caught a 38-yard touchdown pass from Steve Grogan on fourth and one. In that same game, Francis had a career-best 139 yards receiving. As a result, Howard Cosell proclaimed him as the "All-World Tight End".

In 1978, Francis had a career-longest 53-yard reception and 126 yards receiving in the Patriots 21–14 win over the Oakland Raiders at the Oakland Coliseum on September 24. That season, he led the Patriots in receptions with 39 catches for 543 yards.

Francis was a Pro Bowl selection for three consecutive seasons (1977–1979).

Following the 1980 season, Francis opted to retire from professional football after the Patriots refused to give him his promised bonus for making the Pro Bowl that he missed due to injury, and when the team tried to cancel Darryl Stingley's medical insurance after he was paralyzed by a Jack Tatum hit two years earlier. Francis, who was roommates with Stingley, said that it was tough to play after Stingley's injury.

San Francisco 49ers (1982–1987)
After sitting out the season, Francis came out of retirement and joined the 49ers for the 1982 season. In the 49ers' win over the Miami Dolphins in Super Bowl XIX, he had five receptions for 60 yards. In 1985, he had a career-high 44 receptions.

New England Patriots (1987–1988)
Francis was released by the 49ers in 1987 and rejoined the Patriots before the season's final game. He was on the roster in 1988 but after missing the 1989 season due to injury and then being released, he retired for the second time.

Outside football
Francis qualified for The Superstars final and the World Superstars in 1980 and 1981, finishing second in the 1980 final and third in the 1981 event. He won the football preliminary in 1981 and set a record of 23.91 seconds in the 50 yd swimming event. That record stood until 1986, when it was broken by Greg Louganis.

Francis appeared in a 20-man battle royal at WrestleMania 2 along with other NFL stars. He was the son of wrestling promoter Ed Francis and he briefly competed full-time in the American Wrestling Association after retiring from football. He also competed in the National Wrestling Alliance's NWA Hawaii where at one time he held the NWA Hawaii Tag Team Championship with his older brother, Billy Roy Francis.

After retiring, he hosted The Russ Francis Show from 9 am to noon on 107.7 WTPL "The Pulse", out of Concord, New Hampshire, and later he hosted Forever West Outdoors from 4 to 6 pm on 1400 AM KODI, out of Cody, Wyoming.

In 2015, he was inducted into the Polynesian Football Hall of Fame as a contributor. Francis was also the president of Lake Placid Airways, a scenic and charter-flight airline.

Politics
In 2000, Francis challenged long-time Democratic incumbent Patsy Mink for Hawaii's 2nd congressional district. Running as a Republican, Francis was defeated, winning 35.97% of the vote to Mink's 61.59%.

Death
On October 1, 2023, Francis and AOPA Air Safety Institute vice president Richard McSpadden were both killed in a plane crash in Lake Placid, New York, after the 1976 Cessna 177 flown by Francis out of Lake Placid Airport experienced power failure and attempted to return to the airport, but struck a berm on the runway and crashed into a ravine. Francis was 70 years old.

I added a few topics to the table of contents as examples. This is nowhere near a complete list, and they are in no particular order.

Talk:Music Theory/Metal

I want to add/correct some things about the metal article. Well, I don't think metal has been "invented" in the US. Well the real creators of metal are the 60's/70's bands Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin among others. In their music are the riffs and patterns that became so typical for Metal Music to be heard first (and especially in Black Sabbath's music). Well I don't think it is necessary/useful to split up Heavy Music into so many different styles, I'd say the only styles within metal music are:

 * Heavy Metal
 * Speed Metal
 * Hard Rock

There's no need to split them up further, because they all use the same clichees all over again. Well there's one more thing to say: It's no specific thing for goth bands to use locrian mode, I suppose many of those bands don't know what locrian is. Listen to the most known goth bands, you'll hardly ever find a locrian mode in there. Much more specific for goth is the HM5 (Harmonic-Minor, 5th mode, which is also called phrygian dominant, and which is created by raising the third of the 5th step, so that in A-minor the E-minor on the 5th step becomes a e-major chord).

That's all!

--

No way; there are many differences between the metal genres listed, and I believe they are fine the way they are. The only thing I don't really like about this article is the end where it talks about how seven string guitars tuned to drop a are not uncommon. I don't agree with this and I don't like how it states it. -MetalGeoff

Heavy Metal, Speed Metal and Hard Rock? Where would NWOBHM come in then (unless it's grouped with Progressive or Power Metal)? Or NuMetal? Or even Black Metal. None of those genres even remotly resemble Heavy Metal, Speed Metal or Hard Rock.

Although I agree, Metal has way to many sub genres.

hold up
There's no such thing as "blues metal". Aerosmith and GnR are hard-rock/rock 'n' roll bands. Where on earth do you come up with this stuff? == --actually, no...if you grew up in the 80s you knew that both Aerosmith and GnR were heavy metal, but today calls hard rock. That is the problem with this whole article; it skips 2 decades, the 70s and 80s...what I have seen called "mainstream metal", but really back then was just called "heavy metal". The biggest problem with this article is the fact that none of these descriptions fit a band like Iron Maiden; any true metalhead knows that Iron Maiden was a defining sound of heavy metal. By not taking them into account, this article is useless, as are most of today's definitions of heavy metal.

Visual kei
Visual is not a music style, nor is it metal. The music style visual belongs to is J-Rock.

^ You are correct to say visual kei is (at this moment) not a music style; however, present-day visual kei artists can encompass any music style, including metal.

What?
There ar elements in this that are outright erroneous (swedish death metal wasn't popularised by In Flames etc.) and there is, well, a lack of knowledge present. I mean, for example, there is just no point in the description of progressive metal - Opeth are in a completely different genre to Dream Theatre etc. etc.) The various subgenres are totally valid though, although hair metal is exactly the same thing as glam metal, There are one or two missed out, and they're badly fleshed out. Basically, whoever wrote this dosn't have anywhere near enough knowledge to write this, or perhaps, not the time to do it properly.

Theory of metal
are there any books that discuss the actual sounds of metal (specifically the extreme sub-genres)... that's what i want, a music theory book about death metal. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 19:34, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Absolutely baseless
I am given the impression, reading this, that the writer does not actually listen to or understand Metal in the slightest. Who wrote this? The writer seems to be focusing on "core", rather than Metal. Metal is incredibly melodic music, and rhythm is only important in "Progressive" and "Technical" Death Metal, and, in those genres, is used primarily to accent the melodies. I mean, if you look at all of the main/best genres of Metal, chronologically, you will see that they're all primarily focused on melodic progression and song structure - Heavy Metal, NWOBHM, Speed Metal, Death Metal, Black Metal, all of these focus primarily on melody, some even making copious use of harmony (NWOBHM, Speed Metal, and some Black Metal). Atonality does not mean that melodies are not melodies, just as a piece with multiple concurrent time signatures can be "in time" (this is done in Metal, occasionally - Symphony X's "The Accolade" has a short passage of this).

Speaking of song structure - song structure is incredibly important in Metal. Why is there no discussion of the riff, riff progression/self-reference, and so on? There's nothing about the overarching usage of narrative and architected structures in NWOBHM and Extreme Metal. The overall assumption appears to be that Metal is based on Rock'n'Roll's "verse-chorus" structure, which is so fundamentally incorrect as to be aggravating.

Much of the incorrect information on this page is an absolute disgrace, and should be disregarded by all until it has been rewritten in a satisfactory manner.

Change the First Paragraph
Towards the end of the first paragraph, it says that metal contains more musicianship than other rock acts. This is an opinion, and therefore does not belong in here. <IP_ADDRESS> (discuss) 17:47, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Who wrote this?
I personally am disgustesd by how biased this article is, the main writers obviously have no clue what they are talking about.

Minor quibble
Ignoring the big issues for now (they've been brought up be people above), minor quibble: near the end of the section on death metal, it mentions deathcore, and goes on to say that there's dispute as to metalcore's and deathcore's status as real metal. Now, while yes, there are people out there who enjoy yelling "metalcore isn't real metal stfu poser fag", I have yet to see a recognised critic (or even a literate person) seriously consider the opinion. Yes, metalcore does take a lot from hardcore punk, but ultimately, its most striking elements are death growls, blast beats, and most tellingly, tritones. The reason I bring it up, and honestly, I wouldn't normally bother opening this can of worms, is that I'd rather not see such a popular yet unfounded statement furthered on this page <IP_ADDRESS> (discuss) 08:56, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

Major Quibble
I know I said I wouldn't mention these, but I will.

The genres idea is a bad one. Actually, it's a good one, but it's badly executed. As it currently stands, the article talks about subgenres of metal without talking about music theory, then talks about music theory only tangentially relating it to the aforementioned subgenres (and often makes sweeping generalisations only true for a small portion of metal subgenres, such as comments about often only having one or two chords, which is true for metalcore, some trad metal, some industrial metal, and that's about it). A better way of doing this would be to merge the two sections; either talk about each genre and the music theory behind it, or talk about the music theory as it relates to each subgenre. <IP_ADDRESS> (discuss) 09:02, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

NWOBHM Motorcycle gang?
I basically stopped reading when I saw this acticle say that NWOBHM mostly sings about motorcycles... this statement is based on what? It's laughable misinformation since that's not even true of the movement's biggest band, Iron Maiden. Where's the motorcycle craze in Angel Witch, Venom, Diamond Head, and Tank? It's more typical of Saxon and sometimes Motörhead, but not of the entire scene.

Who One earth thought this was a good Idea???
You cant put "core" genres together with metal genres and not expect people to pick a side, and not write horrible inaccurate stuff that they pull out of nowhere, like "melodeath came from metalcore" (which i gladly changed), and many others that i cannot think of right now, this article is mostly written by wanna be musician kids that think where a certain style came from is music theory, and seriously, this would never work because the amount of music theory involved in metal is nothing compared to the aspect of feeling it while you play it/ write it. since more than half of metal cannot be simply created by using scales or chords. I say please just erase this. And well if u actually intended to create a horrible inaccurate source for certain people to be misguided, then as nefarious as that is i guess i can respect what you are doing here, but otherwise is making metal musicians look really, really bad. Better Idea Put a warning that says. READ AT YOUR OWN PERIL!

Talk:C++ Programming/Idioms

I'd initially thought this page will have short examples for quick reference of syntax as this page was supposed to be a continuation of Programming:C plus plus Reference Tables which is already a bit large. Specific examples like the Temperature class should probably go into the main text (i.e. the portion of the textbook not including appendices like reference tables, glossary, FAQ). But until we get chapters on constructors, it could be retained here. With this hindsight, probably even the long explanation on why prevention of copying might be necessary, and other such things that I wrote should also go to the main text.

BTW We could have separate pages for each section in the reference tables page, and probably have a page transcluding all those pages. Also some of the bloat in those tables could also be transferred to the main text.

Note that I am still under the assumption that we'd have a textbook spanning multiple modules. -- Paddu 12:47, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)

About pImpl example
Somehow I think using templates it would be more efficient to implement the pImpl example, although you wouldn't be able to use different implementations at run-time, you'd still get the same result with no need for memory management (new & delete). Changed to something like this...

template  class Book { public: void print; private: l_BookImpl m_p; } void Book::print {  m_p.print; }

The only difference here is the  instead of   (and the lack of new in ctor and the implied delete in dtor), the latter of which also would require something to pass another implementation in order to actually benefit from the pointer usage, which the example lacks completely.

--Acolyte of Discord 00:05, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

A discussion of almost exactly this idea appeared in . <IP_ADDRESS> (discuss) 20:05, 19 February 2015 (UTC)

pImpl section introduction
"In C++ you have to declare member variables within the class definition which is then public and that this is necessary so that an appropriate memory space is allocated means that abstraction of implementation is not possible in "all" classes."

This paragraph is really awkward and should be re-written. Unfortunately I am not knowledgeable enough to do that myself. --Aptd (discuss • contribs) 18:24, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

Her parents discovered that she was able to accurately hum the tune of music being played when she was 6 months old and her father taught her how to play the drums when she was 2. Soon afterwards, she participated as a drummer in a band organised by her parents, known as "Le Wanjia". After that, she studied how to play the piano and guzheng. In the following years, she participated in local singing competitions every year and achieved positive results. When she was in the third year of middle school, she went to Guiyang every weekend to learn bel canto, to pass the entrance exam for the high school affiliated to the Central Conservatory of Music. In September she was admitted with satisfactory results and continued to study bel canto.

2015: The Voice of China
In 2015, Huang Xiaoyun participated in the fourth season of The Voice of China and sang Jam Hsiao's song "You" (你) in the "blind audition" stage, during which both Yu Chengqing and Wang Feng turned around, and she finally decided to join the latter's team. Later on, she sang Sun Nan's "I Believe" and Yao Beina's "Fish" (鱼) in the "mentor assessment" stage, becoming one of the top 4 students of Wang Feng's team and also top 16 overall, but her performance caused some controversy. In the Cross Battle round, she sang Eric Carmen's "All by Myself", but ended up losing the Cross Battle and was eliminated.

2017–2019: First singles released and Sound of My Dream
On 14 December 2017, she released her first single, "Campaign" (征战), in which she tried adding the element of rapping for the first time. On 31 December, she released her second single, "Can We Still Love" (还可以爱吗). On 7 May 2018, she released her first self-composed single "Open" (打开).

In December, she participated in Zhejiang TV's music show Sound of My Dream (season 3), and her first performance of "Upwards to the Moon" 左手指月 went viral. Other songs she performed in the show include "The Light At That Time" (那时的光), "Unparalleled in the World" (天下无双), "The Story of Time" (光阴的故事) and "Same Moonlight" (一样的月光).

2020-present: Singer 2020, other variety shows and first solo album
In January 2020, she represented the Central Conservatory of Music in the Zhejiang TV music program 新声请指教.

In February, she participated as a 'Surprise Challenger' in the Hunan TV music program Singer 2020, entitled Year of the Hits (歌手·当打之年). In the first round, she challenged Mao Buyi and successfully proceeded to the next round. However, a number of Chinese netizens accused her of being discourteous and having low EQ, as Mao had only started to sing the first few lyrics before she requested to challenge him. Since then, some netizens also discovered that the song she sang in the episode, "Life of Planet" by Mayday, was not on any music platform because Mango TV did not buy the copyright. After the third round of the competition, she was at the bottom of the overall rankings and was eventually eliminated. She returned for the breakout round of the show and chose to challenge Jike Junyi, but her challenge failed and she did not proceed to the finals. On 11 April, she also participated as a guest singer in Zhejiang TV's music program, The Treasured Voice.

In May, she and Zheng Shuang, Xiong Ziqi, and Liu Wei together formed the "President of the Star Trading Company" team in the Youku e-commerce variety show "Arrival of the Best-seller! 2" (爆款来了2). She was also the contributing artist to the show's theme song.

On 16 November, her first solo music album, "Huang Xiaoyun's Neverland", was released.

Bienvenu(e)! Having given yourself a substantial grounding in grammar during Francais I, you are now ready to tackle more complex issues surrounding the French language.

French grammar is a beast, but one that can be tamed. The productive student of French will approach grammar with an open and enquiring mind. There are terms that will dazzle and bamboozle, but the aim of this course is to simplify the over-complicated, and sooth the fevered brow of the budding linguist.

Prior Learning
It is useful to consider what you already know, before it is built upon. You now know what a noun, adjective, and verb are, and have seen examples in both English and French.
 * A noun assigns a name to something. Dog, book, fish, happiness, deoxyribonucleic acid.
 * A verb tells us what nouns are doing to themselves and each other. Create, make, draw, hope, design.
 * An adjective tells us what the noun is like. Blue, spherical, unpleasant, frustrated, politically right-wing.

You've also been introduced to the three main french verb families, or conjugations. They have infinitives ending in either -ER, -IR, or -RE. You can conjugate all three families in the Present Indicative tense.

However, unfortunately we all have a past. Therefore, we need to express this linguistically. Student, meet the Perfect Tense.

The French Perfect Tense
First, some basics. The French Perfect Tense, or passé composé, is one of the language's past tenses. It tells us that an action occured in the past, and is now completed.

The 'Perfect' aspect means that the action has been completed and is finished. This is not the tense to use if the action is still occuring in the present day.

Hence, 'j'ai joué au foot' is 'I played football' (but I am no longer).

The Perfect cannot be used for 'I was _____ing' constructions. This nuance of meaning demands another French tense, The Imperfect, which will be covered in subsequent sections.

Normally, the English tenses which will be translated as passé composé are present perfect and preterit. To be totally honest, the preterit should be translated by the passé simple tense but this tense is nowadays almost only used in written French so for now, we will only consider the passé composé tense.

The construction of the French Perfect Tense
The French Perfect combines two elements.

 * An auxiliary which will be conjugated in the present tense and
 * The past participle, which comes from the infinitive form of the verb and will remain unchanged.

In French, there are two auxiliaries:
 * The verb avoir which means 'to have' when not used as an auxiliary.
 * The verb être which means 'to be' when not used as an auxiliary.

Note that the choice of the auxiliary depends on the verb. Some verbs are used with the avoir auxiliary and some others are used with the être auxiliary. However, avoir is the most common used auxiliary. être auxiliary is generally used when the verb expresses a movement or a transformation. A small list of verbs using the être auxiliary is shown at the end of this lesson.

To be sure that those two verbs are mastered, the present conjugation is recalled here:

To form the perfect, we need to revisit our three 'verb families'. For the sake of clarity, the author intends to employ the same three verbs throughout to demonstrate grammatical points. They are:

 * jouer, a regular, first-conjugation verb, meaning 'to play'
 * finir, a regular, second-conjugation verb, meaning 'to finish'
 * vendre, a regular, third conjugation verb, meaning 'to sell'.

Note that all those verbs use the avoir auxiliary, but the construction won't differ for verbs using être auxiliary.

The past participle is formed by the stem or root of the verb which consists of the infinitive with the last two letters removed. At the end of the stem, an ending will be added depending on the group of the verb, this is what will be seen in the following section.

Verbs ending in -er.
The ending of the past participle for the first group verbs is 'e acute', or -é. If we take the verb jouer, we remove the last two letters, which gives us jou- and then add the ending corresponding of the past participle: jou-é.

So, then, consider,

 * j'ai joué, I played, I have played
 * tu as joué, you played, you have played (when talking informally, to someone you know well, or a child)
 * il/elle/on a joué, he/she/one played, has played
 * nous avons joué, we played, we have played
 * vous avez joué, you played, you have played (when talking formally, to an 'elder or better', or to a group
 * ils ont joué, they (group of males, or a mixed crowd) played, they have played
 * elles ont joué, they (a group comprising solely of females) played, they have played.

Please note the use of ils or elles. The French language demands that, even if there were a room full of ten thousand females and just one (lucky) male, the masculine ils would be demanded.

Verbs ending in -ir.
Again, take your stem. But with -ir verbs, we simply add an -i.

So, then, consider,

 * j'ai fini, I finished, I have finished.
 * tu as fini, you finished, you have finished (when talking informally, to someone you know well, or a child)
 * il/elle/on a fini, he/she/one finished, has finished
 * nous avons fini, we finished, we have finished
 * vous avez fini, you finished, you have finished (when talking formally, to an 'elder or better', or to a group
 * ils ont fini, they (group of males, or a mixed crowd) finished, they have finished
 * elles ont fini, they (a group comprising solely of females) finished, they have finished.

Verbs ending in -re.
Stem-time again. But this time we add -u.

So, then, consider,

 * j'ai vendu, I sold, I have sold.
 * tu as vendu, you sold, you have sold (when talking informally, to someone you know well, or a child)
 * il/elle/on a vendu, he/she/one sold, has sold
 * nous avons vendu, we sold, we have sold
 * vous avez vendu, you sold, you have sold (when talking formally, to an 'elder or better', or to a group
 * ils ont vendu, they (group of males, or a mixed crowd) sold, they have sold
 * elles ont vendu, they (a group comprising solely of females) sold, they have sold.

Once you have mastered this pattern, you can decline any regular french verb in the perfect tense.

A list of verbs using the être auxiliary
Note that those verbs are not all regular.

 * naître (né) to be born
 * mourir (mort) to die
 * venir (venu) to come
 * aller (allé) to go
 * tomber (tombé) to fall
 * rester (resté) to stay
 * partir (parti) to leave
 * arriver (arrivé) to arrive
 * descendre (descendu) to go down
 * monter (monté) to go up
 * entrer (entré) to enter
 * all the reflexive verbs, see lesson 3

Activities surrounding the Perfect Tense
There follows a list of infinitives from all three families of French verb. Use them to translate the English phrases that follow into French.

 * chanter, to sing
 * aller, to go
 * aimer, to love
 * regarder, to look at
 * habiter, to live in
 * piquer, to poke
 * caresser, to stroke
 * faillir, to nearly have done. Use with another infinitive.
 * rougir, to blush
 * réussir, to succeed
 * partir, to leave
 * rendre, to surrender
 * descendre, to go down

 * 1. I sang
 * 2. We sang
 * 3. You (group) sang
 * 4. They loved (all female)
 * 5. One looked at
 * 6. He lived in
 * 7. He left the house (clue = the French verb will be followed by de to indicate provenance)
 * 8. They lived in (two females and two males)
 * 9. You poked (one person)
 * 10. We stroked (stop sniggering!)
 * 11. I went to school (clue = the French verb will be followed by à to indicate destination)
 * 12. I nearly died (clue: mourir = to die)
 * 13. I blushed
 * 14. You went down to the cellar (clue: la cave = the cellar)
 * 15. They succeeded (all males)
 * 16. You surrendered (talking to a child)

You should have got something like:

1. J'ai chanté 2. Nous avons chanté 3. Vous avez chanté 4. Elles ont aimé 5. On a regardé 6. Il a habité 7. Il est parti de la maison 8. Ils ont habité 9. Tu as piqué 10. Nous avons caressé 11. je suis allé à l'école 12. J'ai failli mourir 13. J'ai rougi 14. Tu es descendu à la cave 15. Ils ont réussi 16. Tu as rendu

The agreement of the past participle
Caution: This part may be complicated, so you can skip it if you don't feel comfortable and come back later.

In French, the past participle agrees with the subject or the object depending on the auxiliary.

With the être auxiliary
The agreement of the participle when using the être participle is the easiest case.

In this case, the past participle agrees with the subject of the sentence. If the subject is feminine, the past participle will take the mark of the feminine, generally a e. If the subject is plural, the past participle will take the plural mark, generally a s. See section The French Adjective in lesson Simple Grammar Rules for more information.

Let's see a complete example with the verb aller to go.

Remember that the feminine mark is given only if all the subject is comprised of only feminine gender subject. If there is only one masculine gender the past participle will agree with the masculine gender.

With the avoir auxiliary
The case of the avoir auxiliary is a little bit more complicated. In this case, the past participle does not agree with the subject. It agrees with the object but only if it is situated before the verb.

Please, read the following lesson about the French pronoun to understand how an object can be situated before the verb.

Let's see some examples:

 * J'ai regardé le chien (masculine) Je l'ai regardé. Nothing changes.

But if this time we want to say that we looked at the house, la maison being feminine, the feminine mark will appear if the object is placed before the verb.
 * J'ai regardé la maison but Je l'ai regardée
 * J'ai regardé les maisons becomes Je les ai regardées

Now that you have some theory, some practice is needed.

Exercise
In this exercise, you will translate in French the following English phrases. You will need first to choose the appropriate auxiliary and if needed agree the past participle.

 * 1) I looked at the house
 * 2) I looked at her
 * 3) I went to school (clue = you are speaking so I takes your gender)
 * 4) We sang (one man and ten women)
 * 5) We left the house (all men)
 * 6) You fell (plural, all women)
 * 7) They stroke them (clue = them refers to cats + they refers to women only)
 * 8) She entered
 * 9) You succeeded (singular, woman)
 * 10) She went down

Results: 1. J'ai regardé la maison 2. Je l'ai regardée 3. Je suis allé à l'école or Je suis allée à l'école 4. Nous avons chanté 5. Nous sommes partis de la maison 6. Vous êtes tombées 7. Elles les ont caressés 8. Elle est entrée 9. Tu as réussi 10. Elle est descendue

Portal talk:Foreign Language Learning/Participant Coordination

Clearing inactive
Some users on this pages listed there names at the beginging of the formation and have never come back since. Should list be cleared?--Balloonguy 23:04, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Maybe they are working through the lessons? Perhaps if participants have not contributed in over a year they could be cleared. Jonathan Webley 06:35, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Some of the lists are quite large...maybe we should put them into subpages instead? --HappyCamper 03:20, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I like that idea. Reduces clutter.
 * It would appear that some of the languages listed haven't been started yet, and also that there are (clearly) languages missing. I'm interested in learning Romanian, so I'm going to add it to the list, and if anyone sees something wrong with that, just let me know. Opiaterein 18:02, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Some of the languages, such as French, have their own pages. This page provides a place for other unorganized and smaller languages to recruit participants.  It is recommended that the more active languages create a page for this sort of thing, and send participants thither.  The Jade Knight 07:38, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

 * I agree! I've commented out the "participants" with no activity in the last year. I encourage the other languages to do the same.
 * I think we can even remove the language projects that are inactive. This kind of coordination between temporally seperate contributors has little use. --Swift 11:39, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, these lists are great recruiting tools for when languages become active—many people that haven't been around editing at Wikiversity in ages showed up at the French mentoring program when that launched; I had used the "email" feature to contact several of them, and left messages on the talk pages of all. The lists may be dormant, but they are still useful in 1:  showing interest over time, and 2: providing a list of potential participants for anyone that wants to kick-start a project.  As such, I'm going to undo your commenting of stuff.  The Jade Knight (d'viser) 04:08, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
 * On second thought, as you've done this only for Japanese, I'm leaving it be, as you seem to be involved in that project. The Jade Knight (d'viser) 04:10, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Useful Templates and Techniques
Would this be a useful section? Including for example:

 * Translations - tutorial - a navigation bar to translations of a page.
 * Category:Language templates

 * They would likely be useful, but I'm not convinced they would be useful here at Participant Coordination. What are your thoughts?  The Jade Knight (d'viser) 18:59, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Ladder of opportunity

The ladder of opportunity is a catchphrase coined by former Australian Opposition Leader Mark Latham to describe the process of social advancement or the elevation to higher social classes of Australian citizens. After defeating Kim Beazley for the role of Leader of the Opposition, Mark Latham coined the political slogan in his first press conference to describe what he stood for as Labor leader and alternative Prime Minister.

The ladder of opportunity was a phase to inspire middle class 'aspirational' Australian voters. Mark Latham recognised that the primary concern of voters was personal economic advancement, and coined an easy-to-understand phrase to capture the minds of the traditional Labor voter.

The phrase would feature prominently in the 2004 federal election; an election that Labor and Latham would go on to lose.

Høgnorsk

Høgnorsk ~ English

Learning the High Norwegian Language

Høgnorsk (en: High Norwegian) is the usual term for an unofficial, and today little used, form of one of the two written languages in Norway, [Nynorsk (en: New Norwegian) (the other one being Bokmål. The basis for the High Norwegian language direction, is a wish to preserve the New Norwegian written language as an independent language, free of the strong influence from Bokmål that today's New Norwegian has.

The written High Norwegian language is a tradition originating from the first version of the New Norwegian written language (then called (Landsmål), as it was built by Ivar Aasen and later used by classical New Norwegian authors as Aasmund Olavsson Vinje, Arne Garborg, Olav Nygard and Olav H. Hauge.

Shape and structure == ==

Earth is a terrestrial planet. This means it is made up of solid rock unlike a gas giant such as Jupiter. It is the largest out of the four terrestrial planets in mass and diameter. The Earth's shape is an oblate spheroid. This means it is basically a sphere but it bulges around the middle. The [[circumference]] of the Earth is about 40,000 kilometers; the average width of the Earth is about 12,700 kilometers. The highest point on Earth is the peak of Mount Everest at 8,848 meters above sea level. The lowest natural point is the bottom of the Mariana Trench at 10,911 meters below sea level. Because of the bulge at the middle or the equator, the farthest point from the Earth's center is the top of Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador.

It was produced under Pocket Cinema in collaboration with UV Creations. The film was released on July 28 to mixed reviews from critics. The film was a remake of the Marathi film Mumbai-Pune-Mumbai 2 (2015).

Their marriage preparations have been started. Meanwhile, Vijay (Raja Chambolu) an entrepreneur in the fashion industry who is Akshara's ex-boyfriend tries to convince her to restart their relationship, but Akshara doesn't accept his proposal and advises him to move on. Then Akshara and Anand try to mingle with each others families successfully. Then after their engagement, in some critical circumstances, Anand avoids Akshara then Akshara misunderstands Anand and tells him in front of Vijay that he is taking her for granted and she broke up with Vijay because of that reason, so now he was also thinking like that and questions Anand as to what's the difference between him and Vijay.

Then Anand advises her that if she doesn't want this marriage she has full freedom to call it off. But Akshara takes some time to rethink her decision. Later, Vijay, while going to London for a meeting advises Akshara to decide soon or else it may be too late and he says that if she had any feelings for him he would come back for her.

Then the marriage preparations are started in Vijayawada at Anand's residence. Day by day Anand became tensed because of Akshara's confused mindset and he tries to convince her to take back her decision. Later Akshara's friend Laveena (Pujita Ponnada) and her aunt Niraja (Indraja) a psychologist try to realise her mistake in decision making. But Akshara is still in confusion whether to make it or break it.

Finally, with two days left till the wedding, Anand asks Akshara about her decision, but she gives no reply and Anand confirms that she does not like him and decides to call off the marriage. But Akshara tries to stop him to not tell the either of the parents, then he explains about his situation and pressure of the bridegroom's family. Then he decided to tell the issue to his parents and call off the marriage. But Akshara's parents hear all the conversation, then Anand tries to make the situation cool, takes the blame on himself asks Akshara's father to not scold Akshara after he leaves. Then her father supports her daughter and says that whether her decision is good or bad he will stay by her side and decides to apologize to Anand's family, but Anand convinces them to go back to Hyderabad and he will convince his family to stop the wedding.

Later in Anand's residence in the confession time, Anand confess everything that happened in the marriage. Then suddenly to his surprise, Akshara interrupts Anand and conveys her feelings and fears about the marriage and now she has overcome that and says she is ready for the marriage and proposes to Anand for the marriage.

Then in the final day all the misunderstandings had gone and the movie ends with Akshara and Anand's "Happy Wedding".

Cast

 * Naresh as Anand's father
 * Pavitra Lokesh as Anand's mother
 * Tulasi as Akshara's mother
 * Indrajaas Neeraja, Akshara'a Aunt
 * Pujita Ponnada as Laveena
 * Raja Chembolu as Vijay
 * Annapoorna as Anand's grandmother
 * Jahanzeb as Prakash
 * Preethi Asrani as Akshara's sister

Box office
Happy Wedding opened to a lukewarm response at the box office, but could not collect much money because of RX 100, which was running in theaters for a very long time. It became a flop at the box office due to lack of interest in moviegoers.

Critical reception
The film got mixed to poor reviews at the box office.

The Times of India gave it 2.5 stars and wrote, "Lakshman Karya falters a bit with his screenplay in parts, inserting unwanted sequences that don’t move the story forward in any manner. Nor does he deliver a satisfying enough conclusion for Akshara to suddenly realise her folly. However, he must be lauded for attempting to deliver something more than usual gloss. Shaktikath Karthik is a delight, with his music not blocking the flow of the film in any manner, S Thaman’s BGM’s on the other hand falters in certain scenes."

GreatAndhra gave it two stars and wrote, "All in all, “Happy Wedding” is a simple love story of a confused girl that is told with some bright visuals, some nice jokes but turns out to be dreary and nagging."

123telugu gave the film three stars and stated, "On the whole, Happy Wedding is a passable family drama which showcases a contemporary theme which is synonymous with the current generation. The emotions work well but the film takes its own time to register as it is based on urban relationships and bonding. Because of this, some might really like it and a few other sections may disown it right away giving the film a limited appeal this weekend."

Sify gave the film 2.5 stars and said, "Happy Wedding is all about plastic romance, plastic emotions. It is much like extended short film with wafer thin plot of a young woman with insecurities that come from her past relationship. It drags on post interval."

Idlebrain's Jeevi said, "Though it’s a remake of a Marathi blockbuster Mumbai Pune Mumbai 2, Happy Wedding is a risky film to make despite being in salable genres like romance and family drama because the entire film revolves around a wafer-thin subject. The director has succeeded in getting few moments right, but couldn’t give a racy narration and a convincing second half. The entire film is class and glossy and will be liked the ultra class audiences. The lack of logic (heroine’s foolishness in second half and hero’s lethargy in first half (not going to bus station when his fiance is waiting all alone)) which form the basic conflict point might make you squirm!".

Correct langue and hatecrmes
When the Maluku came here (in The Netherlands). The People of the Netherlands could not grasp that everybody From Maluku is called Maluku as a person on its own. a person from maluku lets say a girl from maluku is called .. A nonna orang di maluku. translation. a girl from Maluku. Its not like The Netherlands versus she is a Netherlander. its just Maluku. The Dutch peoples mind could not gra+sp that and called us Molukkers. (So that is already hurtfull but we accepted that, loyal as we where) After that since the begin era of wikipedia and other english internet pages alike the Dutch People from The Netherlands did an on purpose Jab Beneath the belt, by trying to translate the Wrong word "Molukkers" to the word Moluccans (under the colonial thinking wize, we say, so we demand, so thats how it will be) as you see on for example mostly wikipedia pages and pages alike (all wrong). The word Moluccan is an disgracefull hurtfull an hatecrime word to use for Maluku... you wil not call a darkskinned American the N word now would you.....

We as a Maluku community tried to change all the pages many times since the beginning, but we where always silenced by "moderators like you guys do".

So we will put up the fight again to correct hatecrimes against us.

Yes that also means that the pages will be changed to how it should be time and time again.

So please dont hatecrime us anymore. Many thanks Maluku <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 06:37, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

Ernest Simon, 1st Baron Simon of Wythenshawe

Ernest Emil Darwin Simon, 1st Baron Simon of Wythenshawe (9 October 1879 – 3 October 1960) was a British industrialist, politician and public servant. Lord Mayor of Manchester in 1921–1922, he was a member of parliament for two terms between 1923 and 1931 before being elevated to the peerage and serving as the Chairman of the BBC Board of Governors.

Early life and family
Simon was born in Didsbury, Manchester, as the eldest son of Henry Gustav Simon and Emily Stoehr. He was educated at Rugby School and studied mechanical sciences at Pembroke College, Cambridge.

In 1912 he married Shena Dorothy Potter (1883–1972), a noted social reformer. They had three children: Roger, a solicitor and journalist; Brian, an educationalist and historian; and a daughter Antonia (Tony) who died in childhood. His nephew is C. G. H. Simon.

Engineering
After leaving Cambridge on the death of his father, he entered the family's engineering business, Simon Carves, manufacturers of flour milling machinery and coke ovens. He successfully expanded the company into building grain silos, and with the wealth generated by the business pursued outside interests, including politics.

Political and public life
Simon served as a member of Manchester City Council from 1912 to 1925, and as Lord Mayor of Manchester in 1921–1922, the youngest person at the time to have held the office. He is chiefly remembered for the slum clearances and housing projects he initiated in the city. He purchased Wythenshawe Hall and park from Robert Henry Grenville Tatton in 1926 and donated them to the city; the estate farmland became one on Britain's largest housing estates, Wythenshawe.

Simon sat as a Liberal Member of Parliament for Manchester Withington from 1923 to 1924 and from 1929 to 1931. Appointed a Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Health in August 1931, to remain in office he contested Penryn and Falmouth (he had previously decided not to contest the Withington seat again) in October 1931, however he was unsuccessful. He was knighted in 1932. After the Second World War he again stood for parliament, as an independent candidate for the Combined English Universities seat during the 1946 by-election. He was unsuccessful and later that year joined the Labour Party. In 1947 he was raised to the peerage as Baron Simon of Wythenshawe, of Didsbury in the City of Manchester, and he was appointed chairman of the BBC Board of Governors, a post which he held until 1952.

He was close friends with Sidney and Beatrice Webb, and he contributed £1000 towards their establishment of the New Statesman political newspaper in 1913. He also had long association with the Victoria University of Manchester; except for a short period, he was a member of the court and council from 1915 until his death, and he served as chairman of the Council between 1941 and 1957.

Simon died on 3 October 1960 in Withington, Manchester, after suffering a stroke whilst on holiday. His eldest son Roger succeeded to the barony.

Talk:List of people indicted in the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia

List
The list of indictees currently contains 86 of the 161 indictees. I would like to expand it to a complete listing but wonder if it shouldn't be moved onto its own page. Any opinions? Rmhermen 15:27, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The list now contains 147 names - the same number as on the drop down list at ICTY Indictments. Are the rest, some 14, still under sealed indictments? Rmhermen 15:08, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Most of the rest either had their indicments withdrawn or died. There should only be 2 or 3 still missing from the list. Rmhermen 15:54, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I found one more name and recounted - I think the list is complete now. Rmhermen 16:32, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I was Bold and moved the list to List of ICTY indictees. Rmhermen 16:58, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

I have made a few updates to those who were captured in 2005 during the big spree of indictees turning themselves in. The link to Balkans Cooperation on War Crimes link, under references, lists many individuals that have been turned in to the Hague but have not been updated on this page. Vinnievesh 10:48, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Where is, for example, Duško Tadić? --Breadandcheese (talk) 17:23, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 * He used to be there - someone removed several names. I will restore it as quickly as I can identify all the changes. Rmhermen (talk) 17:50, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Turns out no one removed any names - there was just a badly formed reference messing things up. Rmhermen (talk) 18:12, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

whereabouts of indictees at large
NEW YORK, United States -- In her regular report to the UN Security Council on Wednesday (7 June), UN war crimes tribunal chief prosecutor Carla del Ponte requested that the Hague tribunal be given authority to arrest six war crimes suspects who remain at large. She said Ratko Mladic, Zdravko Tolimir, Goran Hadzic and Stojan Zupljanin are believed to be in Serbia, adding that information also links Serbia to the cases of Radovan Karadzic, whose whereabouts are not known, and Vlastimir Djordjevic, believed to hiding in Russia.

alphabetical sorting
I agree with alphabetical sorting (of last names). I just didn't notice before it was sorted in this way because last names are written after first names. Lakinekaki 20:35, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

This may be an annoying change to make, but does anyone think the table should be split into categories such as "guilty, innocent, at large, etc....?"
 * I prefer the alphabetic list - especially as many of the trials are not completed yet. And I means much less to change when one needs updating. Rmhermen 17:30, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

There are no indictees without indictments
The list of ICTY indictees is very useful, but shouldn't the link to the indictments be made directly off the list instead of at the link discussing the individuals themselves? And actually, there should be lists of the indictments too with lists of indictees for each indictment. At the very least, the Indictments column should include a link to the actual indictment document.

This is my first wikipedia post, can I assume that I could create such list of indictments and post it? Or, could I edit the current list to include those links?PaulPk 20:11, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

needs updating somewhat
Could someone check Lahi Brahimaj please? I think he neefs to be updated to be kept in line with Ramush Haradinaj and Idriz Balaj, as all three of them were tried together, and are being retried together. I am now preparing to tag teh entire article as such...--Thehistorian10 (talk) 17:53, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

Further, I rv (BRD) this case for lack of information and as being of questionable relevance at best. Again, see Articles for deletion/Gruban Malić for more info. Quis separabit? 13:36, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Withdrawn indictments
Some withdrawn indictments had no charges listed. For the sake of consistency and justice fairness I removed the charges from the remaining individuals whose indictments had been withdrawn.

I believe this was correct, however if anyone feels strongly about it I will not object to the restoration of the text in question. Quis separabit? 14:18, 28 April 2015 (UTC)

Physical Features
Subtle yet distinctive physical features develop in people with Smith-Magenis Syndrome. These are often unnoticeable when the child is first born, though they simply have a fleshy upper lip with a cupid bow, and chubby rosey cheeks, giving them a cherub or doll like appearance. Infants with the syndrome also often have redundant fat folds, likening to that of the Michelin man. As infants grow older, these physical features become more prominent. They develop a flat nasal bridge, heavy eyebrows, midface retrusion, a short upturned nose, full cheeks, downturned mouth, and protruding lower jaw. As a result of the facial features many individuals are initially misdiagnosed as having Down’s Syndrome. As well as developing distinctive facial features, many people with Smith-Magenis Syndrome develop other physical features. These can include a short stature, mild skeletal abnormalities, scoliosis (curvature of the spine) and short broad hands.

Behavioural Phenotype
When individuals with Smith-Magenis Syndrome are infants they are often very sociable with the tendency to smile a lot. Despite symptoms of hypotonia and often a failure to thrive, they appear healthy and thus primary care givers often miss signs leading to a late diagnosis. Infants with Smith-Magenis Syndrome are often described as the perfect babies as they do not often cry, even having to be woken for feeding. This corresponds with early signs of sleep disturbances, though there is little current literature on sleep disturbances in infants with the syndrome. Infants with Smith-Magenis Syndrome often have problems with feeding. This is thought to be due to a lack of ability to suck and swallow, an aversion to the texture of food, and also stomach acid reflux. Individuals with Smith-Magenis Syndrome may exhibit behavioural problems. They can often become aggressive, with severe temper tantrums be impulsive, demonstrate repetitive behaviour as well as attention deficits and attention seeking behaviour These negative behaviours are often driven by impulses, though medication is available to try and control them. During schooling, students with Smith-Magenis Syndrome are often very adult orientated and constantly seek the attention of their teacher. When this attention is denied or prevented they may become aggressive towards others. Individuals with Smith-Magenis Syndrome often work best in smaller calm groups, as they are easily distracted. Smith-Magenis Syndrome also has associated positive behaviour. Many individuals with the disorder are very eager to please, maintain excellent eye contact, are highly sociable and have a well-developed sense of humour. People with Smith-Magenis Syndrome are described as caring and loving individuals.

Self-injurious Behaviours
Self-injurious behaviour is relatively common with individuals diagnosed with Smith-Magenis syndrome It is not unheard of for parents of children with Smith-Magenis Syndrome to be reported for abuse due to the injuries the children cause themselves, through self-injurious behaviours or uncontrolled rages. The injury they cause themselves s also thought to be due to a reduced sensitivity of pain, associated with Smith-Magenis Syndrome. Self-injurious behaviours often include head banging, wrist biting, and skin picking. Polyembolokoilamania (the insertion of foreign objects into bodily orifices) and Onychotillomania (the tearing off of hand and toe nails) are two self-injurious behaviours unique to Smith-Magenis Syndrome, however only 25-30% of people with Smith-Magenis Syndrome display these behaviours. Some self-injurious behaviour is age related, for example head banging and wrist biting can occur as early as the second year of life, whereas onychotillomania is uncommon before they age of 5 or 6 years.

Self Hugging
Self-hugging is a behaviour exhibited by those with Smith-Magenis Syndrome when they are extremely happy These movements appear to be involuntary. Two types of self-hugging have been demonstrated; and upper body movement holding their self and clasping hands with interlocked fingers at chest or chin level. The action of hugging is also often associated with a facial grimace. This hugging behaviour is not restricted to the self as people with Smith-Magenis Syndrome often hug family, friends and even pets with excessive force. It has been reported that some small pets have actually been hugged to death by their owner, who has the syndrome.

Intellectual Disability
Individuals with Smith-Magenis Syndrome have varying degrees of intellectual disability, with scores of IQ measuring between 20 and 78, with the majority of scores being moderate, falling between 40 and 54. As well as a reduced IQ score, 96% of individuals with Smith-Magenis Syndrome experience speech delays, with or without hearing loss This can often lead to frustration at the inability to communicate. The use of sign language is effective in reducing these frustrations by giving the individual the opportunity to communicate through another means. Speech and language therapy may also be undertaken. Often receptive language skills are much better than expressive language skills.

Sleep Disturbances
75% of people with Smith-Magenis Syndrome demonstrate sleep abnormalities. These include difficulties falling asleep, excessive day time sleepiness and frequent and prolonged periods of being awake at night. This is due to an inverted circadian rhythm of melatonin. The lack of sleep as a result of the disturbances is often attributed to the behavioural problems in people with Smith-Magenis Syndrome. In typically developing individuals in the evening the production of melatonin increases, and throughout the night it steadily decreases. This cycle is inverted in people with Smith-Magenis Syndrome, causing them to feel tired during the day and more awake at night Medical treatments can reduce the effects of sleep-related problems. Taking acebutlol in the morning combats the increase of melatonin that occurs during the daytime, whilst taking melatonin in the evening increases the amount to more normal levels, allowing people with Smith-Magenis Syndrome to feel tired.

Links to Autism
It has been found that 90% of people diagnosed with Smith-Magenis Syndrome will also have a diagnosis of Autism (35% mild-moderate, 55% severe). Autistic like behaviours have been shown to occur in individuals with Smith-Magenis Syndrome around the ages 2-3 years, such as expressive language delays as well as other mild- moderate autistic behaviours.

Related Health Disorders
There is a range of physical health problems associated with Smith-Magenis Syndrome. These can include myopia(short-sightedness), a reduced sensitivity to pain and temperature, Hyporeflexia (a reduced reflex response), Hypotonia (a decrease in muscle tone), high frequency of retinal detachment in patients who have high myopia, and ear infections. 11-30% of people diagnosed with Smith-Magenis Syndrome experience epileptic seizures, with 25% presenting electroencephalographic abnormalities without a history of seizures. Complex partial seizures appear to be the most frequent, though there is no characteristic seizure with Smith-Magenis Syndrome.
