Talk:David Parker (New Zealand politician)

Article inaccurate as it stands
Gadfium, at the moment the article reads too much like a hagiography, which would be fine if it were accurate. But if you study s196(2) of the NZ Companies Act, it will quickly become apparent that the Companies Office investigation clearing Parker on the filing of false returns was 'ultra vires'.

That's because the defence hinged on the letter purporting to waive all future requirements for a shareholder resolution on audits. That much is common ground and uncontroversial.

But s196(2) states that any resolution lapses after one year, and must be renewed afresh in writing each year. Thus, it was legally impossible for the Companies Office and Crown solicitors to find the letter was effective as an ongoing defence for Parker. The Official Assignee had no legal power to waive future audit requirements with one letter.

Whilst the media and the government painted it as such, you won't find a lawyer specialising in the Companies Act in NZ who will support that analysis, given s196(2).

Given that, there are quite serious implications: ie, that the Companies Office investigation was a whitewash, particularly as Investigate's website predicted the precise outcome and grounds for clearance, three weeks before the report was released and two weeks before the Crown solicitor's office was even asked to provide a legal opinion.

It may be a point of fact that the Companies Office cleared Parker. But it is equally a point of fact that it had no legal basis for doing so. This, I submit, needs to be reflected in the article because, as I said, it is currently inaccurate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 07:24, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
 * At present about half the article (3 paragraphs) deals with this incident. It is hardly a hagiography when half the article is critical, and you want to expand it to be two-thirds of the article! For someone who was a Cabinet Minister and the Attorney-General, this seems excessive. The solution is to expand the article to cover more of his life and career, not to expand this particular incident. I also suspect that you are not neutral on this subject; changing "This left no case to answer" to "According to the Government and the Companies Office, this allegedly left no case to answer" seems to be adding the maximum possible doubt to a clear finding by adding both the "According to" and the "allegedly". I suggest you try expanding to the article to at least double its present length with details of his life and career before you try expanding this incident again.- gadfium 08:51, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Adding the words "According to the Government and the Companies Office etc" is a more accurate statement than the one you have left us with. It clearly sources the "no case to answer". At the moment, you are editorialising, effectively pronouncing innocence on your own authority. Which would be fine, if you happened to be right. I ask you again to read s196(2), and tell me how your statement makes legal sense. There is an Emperor's Clothes issue here. Just because a government, or a government agency, declares something to be so, does not of itself make it so. If you wish to make blanket claims such as "no case to answer", you need to be able to justify it.

Your comment "...that he had received an exemption from seeking unanimous shareholder agreement..." is wrong, because no such exemption exists in law. I refer again to s196(2). The Wikipedia article is factually, demonstrably wrong. Likewise, your comment earlier in the piece, "...after publicity around his filing (as one of three shareholders) of an incorrect declaration..." is also inadvertently misleading, because it suggests Parker's actions boil down to a one third split of the blame in a collective error by shareholders. It wasn't. He was the Director of the company. He was tasked with filing the Annual Return for the relevant years. He was tasked with getting written approval from shareholders. The blame was entirely his, as a Director.

With respect, "half the article" is not critical. As it currently reads it is a strawman based largely on the declarations of the NZ Government. You raise the fact of his resignation, but find he was entirely innocent of all claims.

I have pointed out to you the actual law, and my reasons for including it as a factual anchor. Wikipedia should not be a forum merely for press releases from either side. Parker's exemption letter has no weight in law - something even the Crown Solicitor's opinion was forced to admit in the final paragraphs of his analysis.

You can let the article stand as it is if you wish, it's currently your name on it and no skin off my nose. But it is not accurate. Perhaps the issue is not about expanding this particular segment, but merely refining it to more accurately reflect the law. Read the Companies Act. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 10:39, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

 * I have reduced the amount of material to a more appropriate level. The remaining material reflects the New Zealand Herald coverage, which says "a Companies Office inquiry emphatically cleared him of filing false returns".- gadfium 17:55, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

It's better than it was. The Herald reporter was unfortunately a little wet behind the ears and hadn't joined the dots to the Companies Act... The Companies Office "investigation" was straight out of "Yes Minister". It was so cunning it was almost art.

So whilst the Herald might have called it "emphatic", it was only because the journalist didn't know the law.

This comment from lawyer Stephen Franks illustrates my point:

"...the opinion which “cleared” him was rubbish..." —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 22:38, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Where can I find that quote from Franks? We can't quote from the Companies Act, that would be Original research, but we can quote someone giving their interpretation of the Act as it relates to this case, so long as it was published in a reliable source.- gadfium 23:08, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:DavidParkerNZ.jpg
Image:DavidParkerNZ.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Date of resignation wrong
The article incorrectly lists the 25th of July 2023 as the date of Parker's resignation when he actually resigned on 24th (Ministerial List as of the 24th). The reason given for his resignation was not revealed until the 25th and it did not receive substantial media attention until this point. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 21:37, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Wikiversity talk:Administrator Creation and Behavioral Criteria Guidelines and Policy

Another proposal
This project is very young at the moment - I don't think we want to spend too much time codifying all the nuances a custodian would encounter now. Maybe a little bit later is better? --HappyCamper 10:36, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I believe so too. Custodianship, especially the second to last paragraph, should be all that's needed for now. -- sebmol ? 10:46, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Exactly, which is precisely why I am staying away from those pages at the moment :-) However, I worry about this strategy - I don't want something institutionalized which would be detrimental to this project in the long term. Maybe I should put it on my watchlist. --HappyCamper 11:09, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

To complement the above
To complement the above, I have another idea which might be worthwhile looking into. It seems apparent that most of the participants on this project are fluent with editing in Wikis, and I suspect that everyone who is arriving here is quite well meaning.

There is not enough material for us to codify what exactly this project is about, let alone how it should be run behind the scenes.

In the spirit of "learning by doing", why not give the sysop bit away liberally during Wikiversity's infancy? As I understand it, this project is in an evaluationary period of 6 months. Here is my idea:

 * 1) Grant the sysop bit liberally to those who seem to know what they are doing
 * 2) Those accepting the sysop bit do this, know that it can be revoked at any time, specifically in 6 months.
 * 3) After the 6 month period, if this project is still healthy and well, we do a massive "Request for adminship" by the community, say, 2 or 3 candidates a week, in (arbitrarily) alphabetical order.
 * 4) We designate someone trusted by the community at present to use their discretion in giving out the sysop bit. It seems like there is one bureaucrat around, so maybe that would be the person to do this if they are interested.
 * 5) We also don't advertise this too much. Those given the sysop bit should not be craving for any sort of "power" or "authority". We are not interested in creating administrators who can be perceived to be part of a "cabal" or whatnot.

Assuming it would be easy to desysop everyone in 6 months (I'm sure it would not be too difficult to have a Steward do this, there are a few which are easily accessible on :en) there is good reason to do this. The reason is that we need to establish a core group of administrators who exemplify the ideals that we are striving for. I know, this sounds very ambiguous at the moment, but Wikis encourage a lot of observational and passive learning, in addition to active learning. I'd like to see good administrative skills passed down from the beginning. --HappyCamper 11:34, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

 * This should be reworked, condensed into an FAQ, and added to Custodianship. -- sebmol ? 12:12, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Web Design/Design Principles for Web Design

Module Aim
In this module, we will consider some of the principles that you should remember and adhere to whenever making your website. We'll consider color blending on your website, which fonts are most web-friendly, image support, and even creating your website to suit your target audience. This module will expand on issues like webpage load speed and what code to use with what scripts at what time. Knowing which of the web design standards to use such as HTML or HTML5 will also be a point of focus. The following sections have much to offer. Go ahead.

Apart from the principles you need to nail down when designing your site, you need to also understand certain facts about your visitors and how to organize your contents to make the best first impression.

Suggested Activities
Under this section, we'll be considering some activities of which you will work on to see how best the principles discuss really work.

Since you're familiar with creating of HTML pages, only instructions on the activities will be given and you will have to try them yourself. Taking on these activities will help you appreciate how important those principles are and how they are going to facilitate the overall operation of your webpages. Its much important your take to heart these principles.

Basic Principles Grouped
The basic principles to keep in mind when creating your website can be grouped under some four main headings. These kind of categorize the whole idea of those principles. These are:
 * Colors
 * Layout
 * Navigation
 * Fonts

Colors
Color Theory for the web

Navigation
A navigation menu may be implemented through a top bar or side bar. Such may be fixed so to be readily accessible on screen.

Some older versions of mobile browsers might resize sticky elements such as top bars to force fitting within the viewport's width, causing them to get squished when zooming in. With more recent browser versions, this should not be much of a concern.

Expandable sections
Parts of the site can initially be hidden and revealed by the user through actuating a button. This can be implemented using traditional JavaScript or, more modernly, the CSS  pseudo-class.

A site that makes use of such is Reddit, where so-called expandos contain the body of text posts (Markdown), and can preview embeddable media such as images, videos (YouTube, Dailymotion, etc.), and audio from select sites (e.g. SoundCloud).

The content of expandable sections can be included in the HTML source code or only loaded when opened. For text content, including it into the HTML source code is recommended, as that allows immediate opening without delay, and makes indexing by search engines more efficient, as they see more text, and the size of text typically is negligible compared to multimedia content.

For photos, low resolution preview images may be used which link to the original resolution version for users who wish to see it.

Astrosociobiology

Astrosociobiology is the speculative scientific study of extraterrestrial civilizations and their possible social characteristics and developmental tendencies. The field involves the convergence of astrobiology, sociology and evolutionary biology. Thus far, it is entirely theoretical.

If Astrosociobiology is going to become a serious science, means need to be found to make contact with extraterrestrial civilizations. So far, the major approach to detecting or possibly communicating with extraterrestrial civilizations is the use of radio telescopes to detect electromagnetic signals from outer space (SETI).

Most SETI efforts assume that advanced extraterrestrial civilizations might attempt to send powerful radio signals into space that a relatively primitive technological society (such as our own) might be able to detect. However, it may be that the "Radio Age" is very short for most civilizations, and few radio signals may exist in our galaxy. Also, it may be that advanced extraterrestrial civilizations attempt to hide from primitive cultures, in order to prevent contaminating them or otherwise interfering with their natural course of development. If so, new means of detecting extraterrestrial civilizations may be needed.

Discussion
What is the theory of panspermia?

Khwarazmshah

Khwarazmshah was an ancient title used regularly by the rulers of the Central Asian region of Khwarazm starting from the Late Antiquity until the advent of the Mongols in the early 13th-century, after which it was used infrequently. There were a total of four families who ruled as Khwarazmshahs—the Afrighids (305–995), Ma'munids (995–1017), the line of Altuntash (1017–1041), and the most prominent ones, the Anushteginids (1097–1231). Like other contemporary Central Asian titles, such as Afshin and Ikhshid, the title of Khwarazmshah is of Iranian origin.

Afrighids
Most of Afrighid history was recorded by the Khwarazmian scholar al-Biruni (died 1050), whose reliability has been questioned. According to the latter, the Afrighids were founded by Afrig in 305, succeeding the semi-legendary line of the Siyavushids, founded by the Iranian king Kay Khosrow. However, extensive Soviet archeological findings demonstrate that al-Biruni was in reality not well-acquainted with pre-Islamic Khwarazmian history. Coin findings show that before the advent of the Afrighids, Khwarazm was part of the Parthian Empire. The start of the Khwarazmian era seemingly took place in the early 1st-century, after they had freed themselves of Parthian rule, and established their own local dynasty of shahs. The dynastic name of "Afrighid" (Khwarazmian: ʾfryḡ) is not attested anywhere besides al-Biruni, which has led scholars to suggest that the name never existed. Likewise, many of the Khwarazmshahs recorded by al-Biruni are not supported by archeological evidence; however, this may be due to scribal errors.

The Afrighids and the local population were most likely adherents of Zoroastrianism. The first Khwarazmshah to convert to Islam was Azkajwar-Abdallah, who ruled in the early 9th-century, perhaps coinciding with the reign of the Abbasid caliph al-Ma'mun ((r. 813 – 833)). Regardless, the Islamization of the local population was much slower. In the early 10th-century, the Khwarazmshahs were made vassals of the Samanid dynasty, a Persian family which ruled mainly in Transoxania and Khurasan. Although the Khwarazmshahs sometimes granted sanctuary to Samanid rebels, they generally ruled a peaceful domain. During the end of the Samanids, the Khwarazmshahs extended their rule as far as the northern edges of Khurasan, ruling frontier posts such as Farawa and Nasa.

An uncertain part of Khwarazmian history is the rise of Ma'munid family, who came to rule their hometown of Gurganj, one of the three main cities of the country. The city had risen to rival the Afrighid capital of Kath, most likely due to its commercial success as a trading post between the steppe and the Kievan Rus'. The Ma'munids and Afrighids eventually became rivals, with conflict soon ensuing. The Ma'munid Ma'mun I deposed and killed the Afrighid shah Abu 'Abdallah Muhammad ((r. 967 – 995)), thus marking the end of the first Khwarazmshah line of the Afrighids, and the inauguration of the second Khwarazmshah line of the Ma'munids.

Ma'munids
Under the Ma'munids, their capital of Gurganj became a centre of learning, attracting many prominent figures, such as the philosophers Avicenna and Abu Sahl al-Masihi, the mathematician Abu Nasr Mansur, the physician Ibn al-Khammar, and the philologist al-Tha'alibi. The Ma'munids also embellished their capital with buildings such as a minaret which still survives till this day, and has an inscription crediting Ma'mun II ((r. 1009 – 1017)) its founder. However, the Ma'munids soon fell into conflict with the Ghaznavid Sultan Mahmud ((r. 999 – 1030)), who sought to pressurize his Qarakhanid enemies by extending his rule into Khwarazm. In 1014, Mahmud demanded that Ma'mun II should add his name in the khutba (Friday sermon) in Khwarazm, thus acknowledging his suzerainty. Unable to gain military assistance or appease Mahmud through other means, Ma'mun II was forced to accept his demands, much to the dislike of the Khwarazmian nobles and military officers.

This eventually resulted in a patriotic revolt, led by the commander-in-chief Alptigin, which led to the murder of Ma'mun II and accession of his nephew Abu'l-Harith Muhammad in March 1017. Ma'mun II was the brother-in-law of Mahmud, which afforded the latter a pretext to invade Khwarazm. The Ghaznavid army defeated the local Khwarazmian forces at Hazarasp, brutalized the population of Gurganj, and captured many Khwarazmians, who were taken to the capital of Ghazni as slaves. Abu'l-Harith Muhammad was deposed and imprisoned, while Khwarazm was incorporated into the Ghaznavid realm, thus marking the end of the Ma'munid dynasty, the last ethnically Iranian line of Khwarazmshahs.

The line of Altuntash
Due to the difficulty to control a distant area such as Khwarazm, Mahmud installed his Turkic slave commander (ghulam) Altuntash as the governor of the region, with the traditional title of Khwarazmshah, thus marking the start of the third line of Khwarazmshahs. A loyal servant of the Ghaznavids, Altuntash protected the borders of Khwarazm by enlisting additional soldiers from the Turkic groups of Qipchaq, Kujet and Chaghrat. He died of wounds in the aftermath of the Battle of Dabusiyya against the Qarakhanid ruler Ali-Tigin ((r. 1020 – 1034)) in 1032. Although Sultan Mas'ud I ((r. 1030 – 1040)) appointed his own son Sa'id as the new Khwarazmshah, the de facto ruler of Khwarazm was Altuntash's son Harun, who was the khalifat al-dar (lieutenant) of Sa'id. In 1034, in an alliance with the Seljuk Turks, Harun rebelled against Mas'ud, but was the following year assassinated at the instigation of the latter. Harun was succeeded by his brother Ismail Khandan, who was able to rule as an independent monarch as Mas'ud I was occupied with the Seljuk invasions. In 1038, Mas'ud gave the governorship of Khwarazm to his ally, Shah Malik, the Oghuz Yabghu of Jand. In 1041, Ismail was expelled from Khwarazm by the latter, who declared himself ruler at Gurganj, thus marking the end of the Altuntash line. During this period, however, Mas'ud had already died and Ghaznavid rule in the west had crumbled.

Anushtegin dynasty
A year after Shah Malik's conquest of Khwarazm, he was expelled by the Seljuk leaders Tughril and Chaghri Beg. From henceforth Khwarazm was a Seljuk province, although the title of Khwarazmshah was unused until c. 1077, when the Turkic ghulam Anushtegin Gharchai was made its governor by Sultan Malik-Shah I ((r. 1072 – 1092)). He was succeeded by fellow Turkic ghulam Ekinchi as Khwarazmshah in 1097, but the latter died in the same year. Sultan Berkyaruq ((r. 1094 – 1105)) then made Anushtegin's son Qutb al-Din Muhammad (who became known as Muhammad I) the new Khwarazmshah, thus marking the start of the fourth and final Khwarazmshah line of the Anushteginids.

Muhammad I was loyal to the Seljuks, attending the Seljuk court with diligence. It was his son and successor Atsiz ((r. 1127/8 – 1156)) who established the Khwarazmshahs' grandeur, being determined in his pursuit of autonomy and expansion of his realm, conquering the Turkmens of the eastern Caspian shores and the Manghislak peninsula. Regardless, he nominally acknowledged the suzerainty of Sultan Ahmad Sanjar ((r. 1118 – 1157)) till the end of his reign. Atsiz's son and successor Il-Arslan was able to gain greater autonomy after the death of Sanjar and disintegration of Seljuk authority in the east. As long as he paid tribute to the Qara Khitai, they had little interest in meddling in his affairs, and thus he was free to focus on expanding his rule into the Qarakhanid domains.

The power of the Khwarazmshahs even further increased under Il-Arslan's son and successor Ala al-Din Tekish ((r. 1172 – 1200)) was able to slow down the Ghurid expansion into Khurasan and destroy the Seljuk Empire. Furthermore, he also declared independence against his Qara Khitai suzerains, whose attacks he repelled. At the time of his death, his realm stretched as far as Persian Iraq to the west. His son and successor Muhammad II ((r. 1200 – 1220)) was occupied with his rivals in the east (Ghurids, Qara Khitai, the Qipchaq of the northern steppes, and the Qarakhanids) for much of his reign. He initially maintained cordial relations with the Qara Khitai, who helped him fend off the 1204 invasion of Khurasan by the Ghurid ruler Mu'izz al-Din Muhammad Ghuri ((r. 1173 – 1206)), who later died in 1206. His death led to the disintegration of his empire, and Khwarazmian conquest over much of it.

He could now distance himself from the Qara Khitai, and while the latter were preoccupied by the revolt of the Mongol leader Kuchlug in Semirechye, Muhammad II capitalized on this by defeating and killing the Qarakhanid leader Uthman Khan, thus putting an end to Qarakhanid rule in Transoxiana. Muhammad II was now a towering figure in the eastern Islamic world, but like his father, was content with the limited titles of Khwarazmshah and Sultan. He now sought to the deal with the Abbasid Caliphate, who had in the past supported the Ghurids against him; he marched towards Baghdad, but the extreme weather conditions during the winter and unrest amongst the Qipchaq forced him to return to Khwarazm. His son and successor Jalal al-Din Mangburni ((r. 1220 – 1231)) was unable to contain the Mongol invasions, which led to the collapse of the Khwarazmian Empire.

Aftermath and Final Usage
The title of Khwarazmshah was seemingly unused by the Mongol governors of Khwarazm and the later Sufi dynasty. It was revived under the Timurid Empire, after which it was infrequently used, such as under Shah Malik, the governor of Khwarazm under Shah Rukh ((r. 1405 – 1447)) and Shah Malik's son, Nasir al-Din Sultan Ibrahim. The title was informally used by the Uzbek Arabshahid and later dynasties of Khiva in various literary works but never officially adopted.

The final official use of the title was under Eltuzar-Inak – the founder of the Qungrat line (1804-1920) of the Khans of Khiva – who titled himself Wāriṯẖ-i Kẖwārazm-Sẖāhān ("Heir of the Khwarazmshahs") on his coins, however he died in 1806 before they could ever be issued.

Mi (Flower Flower album)

Mi (実) is the debut studio album by Japanese band Flower Flower, released on November 26, 2014.

Background and development
Flower Flower was first formed in early 2013. It was the second musical project of vocalist Yui, who originally debuted as a solo artist in 2005. After five studio albums, Yui announced her intention to retire from music as a soloist after the release of her two greatest hits albums in December 2012. The band started with recording sessions, followed by a series of secret lives across Japan in March 2013. The project was officially announced in April 2013, followed by a series of festival performances. The group released their first single "Tsuki" digitally in June.

Two more songs were released from the album as digital singles: "Kamisama", a stock song from their setlists, was released on May 21, while "Subarashii Sekai" was released on October 1. The cover artwork for "Subarashii Sekai" would later grace the cover of the album itself, despite being released before the album's announcement.

Writing and production
The album was recorded at various recording studios in Tokyo. All songs featured lyrics written exclusively by Yui, however most of the songs were composed by the band as a single entity. Three songs were composed solely by Yui: "Tōmei na Uta", "Ohayō no Kiss o" and "Kimi no Koto". Yui felt that with Flower Flower, they could make any sound they wanted, but with Mi the strongest feeling she had was of destruction. The song "Kamisama" was the first song where Yui played the electric guitar.

The booklet and cover artwork were designed by Coa Graphics, and featured illustration by artist Natsuko Fujii.

Promotion and release
In June 2013 the song "Tsuki" was used in a commercial campaign for cellphone provider au, which featured Yui personally as the spokesperson appearing in the advertisements. The song "Subarashii Sekai" aired as the TV Tokyo drama Tamagawa-ku of the Dead's theme song, which started airing on October 3, 2014.

The album was first announced on October 22. Tracks from the album were released on a weekly basis in the build up to the album's release. The first song was "Tōmei na Uta" released on October 29, followed by "Kūki" on November 5, "Kimi no Koto" on November 12 and "Byebye" on November 19.

Critical reception
Music magazine Musica featured three reviews of the album. Tohbo Sakuma felt that much of the album had a live music sound, and that the release had the feel of rock and roll, even though it was not in that genre. Akinori Yamamoto of the band Lite felt that Flower Flower was a project that shifted the focus of Yui's music away from the melody, and towards the entire composition of the songs. He noted most of the songs featured messages, and felt that the album was "serious and reassuring". Daichi Yajima noted the strong emotive quality of Yui's voice in the album's songs.

Both Sakuma and Yajima praised "Hikari", with Sakuma feeling it was one of the most memorable songs on the album due to its shoegazing sound, Yui's "floating" vocals, and its message of facing up against absurdity in the world. Yamamoto singled out the song "Start Line" as having one of the most special compositions of the album. Yajima also singled out the song "Seki o Tatsu" for the "uneasy atmosphere" created by the song's "inorganic keyboard phrases".

Personnel details were sourced from Yankee's liner notes booklet.

Physics Study Guide/Energy

=Energy=

Kinetic energy is simply the capacity to do work by virtue of motion.

(Translational) kinetic energy is equal to one-half of mass times the square of velocity.

(Rotational) kinetic energy is equal to one-half of moment of inertia times the square of angular velocity.

Total kinetic energy is simply the sum of the translational and rotational kinetic energies. In most cases, these energies are separately dealt with. It is easy to remember the rotational kinetic energy if you think of the moment of inertia I as the rotational mass. However, you should note that this substitution is not universal but rather a rule of thumb.

Potential energy is simply the capacity to do work by virtue of position (or arrangement) relative to some zero-energy reference position (or arrangement).

Potential energy due to gravity is equal to the product of mass, acceleration due to gravity, and height (elevation) of the object.

Note that this is simply the vertical displacement multiplied by the weight of the object. The reference position is usually the level ground but the initial position like the rooftop or treetop can also be used. Potential energy due to spring deformation is equal to one-half the product of the spring constant times the square of the change in length of the spring.

The reference point of spring deformation is normally when the spring is "relaxed," i.e. the net force exerted by the spring is zero. It will be easy to remember that the one-half factor is inserted to compensate for finite '"change in length" since one would want to think of the product of force and change in length $$(k\Delta\vec{x})\cdot\Delta\vec{x}$$ directly. Since the force actually varies with $$\Delta\vec{x}$$, it is instructive to need a "correction factor" during integration.

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Giselle/archive1

 * The following is an archived discussion of a featured article nomination. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the article's talk page or in Wikipedia talk:Featured article candidates. No further edits should be made to this page.

The article was archived by Laser brain via FACBot (talk) 15:05, 9 February 2015 (UTC).

Giselle

 * Nominator(s): SeeSpot Run (talk) 18:40, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

This article is about the 1841 ballet Giselle. It introduced the star ballerina Carlotta Grisi to the French public. This is the earliest ballet still in the general repertoire. It is also considered by balletomanes to be ballet's Hamlet. The article is well-written, and deserves a place among the FAs. SeeSpot Run (talk) 18:40, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Oppose for the moment. Pleased as I am to see this delightful work represented here, the article is not yet ready for promotion to FA. It was raised to GA only on 1 February, and needs further work if it is to meet the more stringent FA criteria. Specific points of concern:
 * Uncited statements evident at several paragraph ends – there may be others
 * Excessive image clutter, leading to the text frequently being swamped and squeezed. Some of these images are highly marginal to the subject, and could easily be dropped. The problem had been exacerbated by frequent upsizing.
 * The structure of the article looks odd and somewhat illogical, with the plot section stuck on the end almost as an afterthought, and other sections appearing in what looks almost a random order. I am not that familiar with ballet articles (apart from The Rite of Spring), but I think that the order widely adopted for opera articles, with an early plot summary and a general sequence of background → composition → performance → reception → music, would be more appropriate here.
 * Although I've not read the general text, I have looked at the lead. The date of composition is missing from the first line. The wording "a poem about a girl who dies after an all-night ball called 'Fantômes' " is ambiguous and rather clumsy. I don't know if "composed the choreography" is general ballet-speak, but I've not previously heard choreography described as "composed". "Designed", perhaps. Overall, I doubt that this lead properly fulfils the WP requirement that it provides a summary of the whole article. It looks somewhat brief and attenuated.

I am not at this stage sure whether these issues can be resolved within a FAC timescale, but am prepared to  wait and see what others say. Brianboulton (talk) 11:45, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

Coordinator comment: I concur with Brian. The article has quite a distance to go before being FA material and it will be best to archive this nomination so you can work on the issues noted. You are welcome to re-nominate after at least two weeks have passed. It might also be helpful to look at exemplars in close-by domains (opera, musicals) and solicit feedback from experienced FA writers in those domains before coming back. -- Laser brain  (talk)  15:05, 9 February 2015 (UTC) -- Laser brain  (talk)  15:05, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

Daniel E. Ekker is a “Serial Entrepreneur” who was born in Duluth Minnesota at St. Luke’s Hospital in 1977. He is one of 5 children born from Ellis and Patricia Ekker. He is well known as the “Co-Creator” of The Lucid Notion Snowboard Company, but has made a living running “Drawn Short Brand Management”, a company that provides logistics and branding support to start-up firms in the Snowboarding, Skateboarding, Brewing, and Licensed Beverage industries.

History
Daniel was born in Duluth MN in 1977. He is the middle child of 5 kids and grew to prominence through his involvement as the manager of the famed “ Underground Snowboard Shop”.

It was by way of this venture that Daniel met Chad Otterstrom and Michael Aguirre. Chad was a team rider for the “Sodian Concepts” Snowboard Company (known later as “Kingpin Snowboards”) and Michael Aguirre was the father of Olympian Mason Aguirre.

In 1998, Daniel left Duluth to work for snowboard Industry Veteran Perry Gladstone on his Limited Snowboard Company. The Limited Snowboards venture was short lived, and Daniel soon left Colorado to work for Ken Greengard on his Joyride Snowboard Company. Much like Limited… Joyride also went out of business, so Daniel teamed up with Ryan Peterson (Hoveland Snowskates) and created “The Lucid Notion Snowboard Company”.

For 5 years, Ekker and Peterson ran The Lucid Notion Snowboard Company before abandoning the project due to creative differences.

WI-ME Snowboards
In 2011, Jeff Lavin approached Ekker to help Jeff run his newly created WI-ME Snowboard Company. Daniel agreed, and the current version of WI-ME is in place.

Drawn Short Brand Management
Drawn Short Brand Management was created when Daniel left College at The Metropolitan State College of Denver. It has been a creative outlet for his friends to use his expertise in giving their companies a leg up in the competitive environments they compete in.

As of September 2017 Drawn Short has created (or contributed to) the following brands:

Brazilian Portuguese

Introduction
The Portuguese language is the 6th most spoken in the world, with over 200,000,000 native speakers in Brazil alone. (Another estimated 11 million in Portugal.) It's a Category I language, meaning that it is relatively easy for a native English speaker to learn. How easy is it? And how hard does it get?

Things you'll find easy about learning Brazilian Portuguese:
 * Sentence structure is close to English
 * Very similar to Spanish vocabulary-wise
 * Phonetic (every word follows a pronunciation pattern)

The hard part? And finally, this course isn't designed to be a chore! It's designed to be fun! Don't feel you have to drag yourself through bits you don't like or find boring. No one's looking if you skip a lesson. But at the same time, don't give up when it gets tough!
 * Producing nasal sounds
 * Open and closed vowels (sounds intimidating but I'm sure you can master it in less than 30 minutes)
 * Complex conjugation system
 * The many verb tenses

Recent edits
On 7 February, on a discussion of Newt Gingrich's staff maliciously editing Wikipedia articles, Dave Ross and Luke Burbank wondered on-air how easy it was to edit Wikipedia articles. Luke bet Dave that Dave Ross's own article would be edited by someone within the next few minutes due to the mention on the show. Thus the large number of non-constructive edits on the page. This mention is at the end of the 10:00am - 11:00am podcast on the linked page, and the reaction is on the next hour's podcast. -- Arthur Allen 04:36, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Ah! That clears it up.  Thank you, Arthur - I just listened to the broadcast that you linked to.  Interestingly, upon being told that COI editing was prohibited on Wikipedia (an overstatement on Luke's part), Dave understood and strongly defended the COI policy.  But Dave underestimated the number of jokers who might edit Wikipedia.  -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:22, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

Tense
I have tried to add to the webpage to make the beginning read in a more active present tense manner, like I've seen with all the other living people on this site. "Has been" is a passive present tense and "is" is an active present tense. I was told that I was wrong in changing it and to post here. What should I do? ValentinesDay88 (talk) 05:10, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you for coming here, rather than continuing to revert to your preferred choice. I see you are a relatively new editor, so please take the time to read a very important guideline: WP:BRD, which outlines what you should do when one of your edits is reverted. You should not try to just put it back in, but to use the article's talk page to discuss the change with other interested editors. While the discussion continues, the article's WP:STATUS QUO remains in place. I am sure that the editor with whom you have been having the back-and-forth will comment here shortly to discuss the matter. - SchroCat (talk) 06:52, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Valentine'sDay, you ended the sentence with: "and has been since 1987", so you are leaving in the same "has been" that you are complaining about and making the sentence more awkward, not less. If you can come up with a more elegant proposal for expressing the facts (please propose it HERE, not in the article itself), I'm all ears.  Also, please explain why you think "occasionally" is better than "sometimes" in this case.  See WP:BROKE. -- Ssilvers (talk) 07:06, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

School:Architecture

Welcome to the Wikiversity School of Architecture

This page is a gathering point for learning projects and materials about architecture. Like other Wikiversity schools, it is not organized like a conventional architecture school, but rather a starting point for new learning resources and learning projects. You'll have a better idea of what the Wikiversity is -- and is not -- by reading the Scope page.

We welcome you to The School of Architecture, whether simply out of curiosity, or having something specific to learn, share or to teach. Browse through the material presented here and do not hesitate to make additions or corrections.

Architecture is one of the traditional Fine Arts, and has existed since the beginnings of recorded time. Architecture is both a science and a craft. The discipline of architecture covers a broad spectrum of fields, including Art, Science, and Engineering, as well as History, Geography and Sociology. If you plan to become an architect, you will need skills in all those domains. The traditional teaching of architecture is always found at the intersection of these disciplines, and this Wikiversity school is a chance to bring these connections to a higher level. You can learn more about architecture by reading the Introduction to Architecture.

The opportunity to teach and learn architecture online is unprecedented. Historically, some of the best-known architects in the world, such as Filippo Brunelleschi, Frank Lloyd Wright and Tadao Ando have been self-taught, and this School of Architecture, like other Wikiversity Schools, aims to be a place for the development and exploration of new ways to teach and learn architecture. Here you are free to learn, to teach -- or even better, to teach and learn at the same time. The Wikiversity has several tools to assist you in this endeavor, including learning projects, learning resources, and collaborative learning communities. Non-traditional Learning Projects that are oriented towards learning about conventional course subjects are encouraged within Wikiversity. That is what everyone is welcome to do here.

The learning material presented here is divided in divisions and departments, listing current learning projects related to this architecture school, and courses/learning material, that lists more conventional material and other open educational resources.

Divisions and departments
Divisions and Departments of the School reside in the Topic: namespace. If you would like to start a new department, start its name with the "Topic:" prefix. Departments and divisions link to learning materials and learning projects. Divisions can link to subdivisions or to departments. For more information on schools, divisions and departments and how to find your way in all this, read the Naming Conventions.
 * Experimental Architectural Design Lab
 * Architectural rendering
 * Architectural engineering
 * Naval architecture

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator/INFP

INFPs at work
INFPs love to work behind-the-scenes and support the group. If they feel they are appreciated for their hard, considerate work, they often enjoy themselves immensely. Because they are often socially unsure, many find jobs they can do from home.

INFPs in relationships
INFPs are very sensitive beings, and oftentimes the social scene feels extremely repressive and painful for them. They want very much to be accepted and cared for, but sometimes they become so uncomfortable that they become very nervous and feel completely out of place. Many try to express feelings of sadness and helplessness to those close to them for support. For lovers, they often look for outgoing, strong, caring people who can help them feel a part of things and to whom they can give their love. Still they are quite independent and have strong personal values, which they tend to defend at all costs. They also have are deep loyalty and commitment to those close to them.

How to deal with an INFP (MEDIATOR)
Because the INFP (MEDIATOR) tends to extrovert their iNtuition (they can reveal out loud the possibilities that they are imagining when they imagine them) to the world yet at the same time introvert their Feeling decision-making (not reveal the values and processes they really hold), they can seem to others that the possibilities they suggest are really decisions. Because they say things (possibilities) they don't necessarily believe, it is crucial to verify with them if some of their statements are truly decisions or judgements.

In order to help the INFP (MEDIATOR) feel good about themselves, it is necessary to tell them verbally that you care about them. They need a great deal of positive affirmation and can become very self-conscious and insecure and lost without it. Some say that they 'can't do anything right' and feel very depressed and lonely.

In conflict, keep in mind that, if pressured, the INFP (MEDIATOR) may try to change the subject and escape. It is best to treat them very gently and lightly discuss the subject at hand without seeming angry or upset with them. When they feel very cornered, their usually sweet exterior rapidly changes and they begin to lash out. Do not take this behaviour harshly, for this happens only under very rare circumstances and when the INFP (MEDIATOR) feels they have no other choice. If they feel they have shared their feelings in a kind and loving environment without being criticized for them, they often feel quite content and calm.

Physics Study Guide/Vectors and scalars

Vectors are quantities that are characterized by having both a numerical quantity (called the "magnitude" and denoted as |v|) and a direction. Velocity is an example of a vector; it describes the time rated change in position with a numerical quantity (meters per second) as well as indicating the direction of movement.

The definition of a vector is any quantity that adds according to the parallelogram law (there are some physical quantities that have magnitude and direction that are not vectors).

Scalars are quantities in physics that have no direction. Mass is a scalar; it can describe the quantity of matter with units (kilograms) but does not describe any direction.

Multiplying vectors and scalars

 * A scalar times a scalar gives a scalar result.
 * A vector scalar-multiplied by a vector gives a scalar result (called the dot-product).
 * A vector cross-multiplied by a vector gives a vector result (called the cross-product).
 * A vector times a scalar gives a vector result.

When are scalar and vector compositions essentially the same?
Answer: when multiple vectors are in same direction then we can just add the magnitudes.so, the scalar and vector composition will be same as we do not add the directions.

What is a "dot-product"? (work when force not parallel to displacement)
Answer: Let's take gravity as our force. If you jump out of an airplane and fall you will pick up speed. (for simplicity's sake, let's ignore air drag). To work out the kinetic energy at any point you simply multiply the value of the force caused by gravity by the distance moved in the direction of the force. For example, a 180 N boy falling a distance of 10 m will have 1800 J of extra kinetic energy. We say that the man has had 1800 J of work done on him by the force of gravity.

Notice that energy is not a vector. It has a value but no direction. Gravity and displacement are vectors. They have a value plus a direction. (In this case, their directions are down and down respectively) The reason we can get a scalar energy from vectors gravity and displacement is because, in this case, they happen to point in the same direction. Gravity acts downwards and displacement is also downwards.

When two vectors point in the same direction, you can get the scalar product by just multiplying the value of the two vectors together and ignoring the direction.

But what happens if they don't point in the same direction?

Consider a man walking up a hill. Obviously it takes energy to do this because you are going against the force of gravity. The steeper the hill, the more energy it takes every step to climb it. This is something we all know unless we live on a salt lake.

In a situation like this we can still work out the work done. In the diagram, the green lines represent the displacement. To find out how much work against gravity the man does, we work out the projection of the displacement along the line of action of the force of gravity. In this case it's just the y component of the man's displacement. This is where the cos θ comes in. θ is merely the angle between the velocity vector and the force vector.

If the two forces do not point in the same direction, you can still get the scalar product by multiplying the projection of one force in the direction of the other force. Thus:

There is another method of defining the dot product which relies on components.

What is a "cross-product"? (Force on a charged particle in a magnetic field)
Answer: Suppose there is a charged particle moving in a constant magnetic field. According to the laws of electromagnetism, the particle is acted upon by a force called the Lorentz force. If this particle is moving from left to right at 30 m/s and the field is 30 Tesla pointing straight down perpendicular to the particle, the particle will actually curve in a circle spiraling out of the plane of the two with an acceleration of its charge in coulombs times 900 newtons per coulomb! This is because the calculation of the Lorentz force involves a cross-product.when cross product can replace the sin0 can take place during multiplication. A cross product can be calculated simply using the angle between the two vectors and your right hand. If the forces point parallel or 180° from each other, it's simple: the cross-product does not exist. If they are exactly perpendicular, the cross-product has a magnitude of the product of the two magnitudes. For all others in between however, the following formula is used:

But if the result is a vector, then what is the direction? That too is fairly simple, utilizing a method called the "right-hand rule".

The right-hand rule works as follows: Place your right-hand flat along the first of the two vectors with the palm facing the second vector and your thumb sticking out perpendicular to your hand. Then proceed to curl your hand towards the second vector. The direction that your thumb points is the direction that cross-product vector points! Though this definition is easy to explain visually it is slightly more complicated to calculate than the dot product.

How to draw vectors that are in or out of the plane of the page (or board)
Answer: Vectors in the plane of the page are drawn as arrows on the page. A vector that goes into the plane of the screen is typically drawn as circles with an inscribed X. A vector that comes out of the plane of the screen is typically drawn as circles with dots at their centers. The X is meant to represent the fletching on the back of an arrow or dart while the dot is meant to represent the tip of the arrow.

In September 2012 he was officially declared as an independent candidate with the backing of AKEL. Having placed second in the first round of the elections with 26.91% of the votes, he made it to the runoffs that were held in February 2013. In the second round he lost to Nicos Anastasiades having received 42.52% of the votes.

Malas ran again as an independent candidate in the 2018 presidential election, regaining the support of AKEL. In the first round of the elections held on 28 January 2018 he received 30.24% of the votes, qualifying to the second round along with the then president Anastasiades who was applying for re-election. In the second round he lost to Anastasiades having received 44.01% of the votes.

Currently, Stavros Malas is the president of The Cyprus Institute since February 2023.

Supreme Revolutionary Committee

The Supreme Revolutionary Committee (اللجنة الثورية), sometimes referred to as the Revolutionary Council or the Revolutionary Committee,  is an interim body in Yemen formed by the Zaidiyyah Shia group Ansar Allah (more commonly known as the Houthis). In their 6 February 2015 "constitutional declaration" after seizing control of the Yemeni capital and much of former North Yemen, and the failure of Thursday talks between the Houthis and Yemen's many political parties that were aimed at forming a government to replace Hadi and his cabinet, the group declared the committee would act as Yemen's interim authority. The committee was given the task of forming a new 551-seat parliament, which would then select a five-member presidential council to rule the country for two years.

The president of the committee was Mohammed Ali al-Houthi.

On 15 August 2016, the Supreme Revolutionary Committee partially handed power to the Supreme Political Council.

International reactions
The legitimacy of the committee was rejected by a number of Yemeni opposition groups, including the Houthis' Sunni rivals in the Islah Party and the separatist Southern Movement, as well as the United Nations, United States, and Gulf Cooperation Council.
