Globewide Network Academy

The Globewide Network Academy is a 501(c)3 Texas non-profit which runs a website http://www.gnacademy.org/.

I'd like to move as much of the content of that site over to wikiversity since there is a small but active community here, while the GNA community has dispersed over the years. The things that can be moved over are:

 * wiki contents on distance learning - a lot of howto's
 * the GNA database - this could be used as the platform for a wikidata project
 * the C++ textbook
 * lot's of other things - all of the contents on http://www.gnacademy.org/ is open source and people are welcome to use it for whatever they want.

Other things that academy can provide are

 * we have a 501(c)3 non-profit already set up, and we can use it to administer grants or help other people set up non-profit corporations
 * we have a Linux server which is available for people doing academic things
 * we have MOO's set up
 * also most importantly, we have a lot of experience with the pitfalls of trying to set up an on-line university. A few things:
 * the most important thing is community
 * accreditation is a lot easier than you might think
 * you must keep the technology infrastructure open source
 * you must keep that open source technology infrastructure funded
 * bazaar markets are good since they avoid the bureaucratic structures that lead to fratricidal conflict
 * survival is most important. we started before the dot-com boom and bust before most people hadn't heard of the web much less wiki.  Because we didn't have a cash-burn, we outlived pretty much everyone else in this space.
 * just do it

This is part of my general personal project of creating an academic ecosystem.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Heinrich Thoma (general)

The result was no consensus. As far as I can see, NSOLDIER is an essay, and even though the convention may be to treat it as a notability guideline, arguments based on it carry lower weight. As a result I do not see clear consensus here, and this has been open for a month. I strongly recommend that the status of NSOLDIER be clarified via an RfC or equivalent; written policy being at odds with current practice is rarely a sustainable thing. Vanamonde (Talk) 02:29, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

 * Are either of those WP:RS? —Brigade Piron (talk) 10:45, 22 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete while his ranks meets #2 of WP:SOLDIER that is just a presumption and I'm not seeing SIGCOV in multiple RS to satisfy WP:GNG. Mztourist (talk) 03:24, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect Presumption of notability does not apply if a thorough before search is done. The first source cited by Hawkeye is not reliable; the second, whether it is reliable or not, is just a database entry. Therefore, this individual is not notable and should be redirected to List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (T), where he is listed. (t · c)  buidhe  08:35, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. Clearly notable per WP:SOLDIER, which is generally held as being the standard notability guideline for general officers (despite its status as an essay), as both a general and a divisional commander. Consensus is clearly to keep officers of this rank per that guideline. -- Necrothesp (talk) 22:38, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure I follow your reading of WP:SOLDIER which makes it clear that "any person who is only mentioned in genealogical records or family histories, or is traceable only through primary documents, is not notable" in spite of the rank-based presumption. It also begs the question of why the apparently non-notable commander of an apparently non-notable division ought to have an article. Wikipedia is not in the business of being a phonebook for Nazi military functionaries! —Brigade Piron (talk) 09:33, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Ah, so is it the fact he was a Nazi (no proof he was, of course) that bothers you? That's not a reason to get an article deleted. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:56, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * It's not my motivation, but I'll admit it gives me cause for thought. Wikipedia's vast array of obscure and non-notable Nazi generals does not seem to be mirrored in our coverage of (for example) Nigerian, Swiss, or Brazilian armies which no doubt have also produced their own equally interesting non-entities. Oddly, the same problem does not often seem to arise! But this is off topic. —Brigade Piron (talk) 18:06, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * If someone cared to write articles about (for example) Nigerian, Swiss, or Brazilian generals then they would be equally notable per WP:SOLDIER! -- Necrothesp (talk) 22:48, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Not really. The modern Australian Defence Force, for example, has dozens of general-level officers who are almost entirely unknown outside the military and not the subject of significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Other militaries have even bigger problems with 'rank inflation'. Nick-D (talk) 08:30, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * So what you're basically saying is that you don't agree with WP:SOLDIER? Well, I do and so do many other editors. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:49, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I do not think you are following WP:SOLDIER correctly for the reason stated in my earlier post. It is clear that there are many circumstances in which Generals will not be notable where they are not covered by WP:RS. Nigeria, incidentally, had literally hundreds of generals at any one time and recently promoted 31 to Major General in one go. As Nick-D says, this kind of thing is not unusual. The US has more than 400 at any one time. We'd be mad to treat all of them as notable. —Brigade Piron (talk) 22:33, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * As I have said to Necrothesp on several occasions recently, just being a General is not inherently notable, #2 of WP:SOLDIER is not an automatic pass on notability, its just a presumption, they must also SIGCOV in multiple RS to satisfy WP:GNG. Necrothesp claims there is a consensus that Generals are inherently notable, but these discussions show that is not the case. Mztourist (talk) 05:29, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * WP:SOLDIER is a Wikiproject-level notability essay, so not too much weight should be put on it. The guidance on generals is simply ill-informed. For instance, the modern Thai military has more than 1700 general-level officers! . Nick-D (talk) 08:45, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Ah, so the new argument is that people in the wikiproject don't know what they're talking about! First a guideline that has been accepted for years has been dismissed as rubbish by a handful of editors, then the people who formulated it and continue to use it are dismissed as ignorant. Great! Thanks for that. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:36, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Even reading WP:SOLDIER alone, I still don't see how this argument is tenable: "any person who is only mentioned in genealogical records or family histories, or is traceable only through primary documents, is not notable." This seems basic common sense. You made a jibe about me having no evidence for Thoma having been a Nazi, but we actually have no WP:RS evidencing his actual existence. It's interesting how many generals appear in the List of hoaxes on Wikipedia, including this recently spotted example. Besides, what exactly is the point for our readership in having access to an article which has virtually no actual information in it? It may be worth raising this for future discussion on WP:MILHIST if clarification/rewriting is necessary. —Brigade Piron (talk) 11:55, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Actually, his existence, rank and commands are attested in a perfectly reliable source. Also, please see WP:STUB. Short articles are perfectly acceptable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:08, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * That ref is one line, hardly SIGCOV in multiple RS. Mztourist (talk) 10:31, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * And my comment was clearly simply a refutation of the above comment: ...we actually have no WP:RS evidencing his actual existence. Which is simply not true. -- Necrothesp (talk) 21:52, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: As has been pointed out above, NSOLDIER is not a notability guideline, but an essay. The fact people meeting NSOLDIER tend to be kept at AfD has no direct bearing on future discussions.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Vanamonde (Talk) 05:10, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Looking on Google Books, there seems to be quite a bit of mention of him, in various campaigns, and mentions of him being an olympian? He was a general, and also, he was awarded the Iron Cross, so clearly he has performed something of note. Deathlibrarian (talk) 08:30, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * That is presumably Heini Thoma, a separate person, but please do share any WP:RS that provide "significant coverage" of the subject. —Brigade Piron (talk) 09:07, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: While there has been the assertion of sources being present they have not been listed in a way that let's others verify notability. The majority of discussion is over how we should use the essay NSOLDIER and this is the wrong place for such a discussion.
 * Keep meets SOLDIER on both rank and size of command, and also has the Knight's Cross which means that there is several books on recipients that provide bio details. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 08:57, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment, a book worth looking into was written by Christian Hartmann: Wehrmacht im Ostkrieg. Front und militärisches Hinterland 1941/42 [Wehrmacht in the Eastern-War. Front and Military Rear Area 1941/42]. Oldenbourg, Munich 2009; 2nd edition 2010, ISBN 978-3-486-70225-5. The book revealed Heinrich Thoma's antisemitic view while serving with 296th Infantry Division. At the time, Thoma was the regimental commander of the 519th Infantry Regiment, a regiment of the 296th ID. Cheers MisterBee1966 (talk) 10:16, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak redirect: to List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (T). I recognize that he does meet SOLDIER in name, and MisterBee's source may have enough to write an article, but right now we aren't losing any detail by instead redirecting it. If enough coverage to merit a stand-alone article is found, it can be recreated. Please ping me if the article is dramatically expanded. Eddie891 Talk Work 17:01, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Nazi fancruft. WP:SOLDIER is an essay and therefore irrelevant. If there are no sources and nothing to write about him except that he got a medal once, there is no content for an article here (WP:NOPAGE).  Sandstein   08:30, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Untrue. We have a full resume. Enough to create an article. Hawkeye7   (discuss)  09:44, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I find these insinuations that generals should not be considered notable just because they fought for the Third Reich uncomfortable in a serious encyclopaedia, as they reflect personal opinion only. "Nazi fancruft" is also highly insulting, as it implies the article was created by someone who supported the Nazis, as opposed to someone who believed that a "two-star" general and divisional commander might just be notable no matter which army he served in. Either all senior officers are presumed notable as long as they meet the criteria of WP:SOLDIER, including those of "discredited" regimes, or none are. In the latter case, I fail to see why WP:SOLDIER even exists. Although given the opinion above that it is "irrelevant" I think we know where some editors stand. WP:IDONTLIKEIT springs to mind. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:49, 5 September 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Barkeep49 (talk) 19:59, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep because of WP:SOLDIER and sources mentioned above. Cheers MisterBee1966 (talk) 11:53, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep as he appears to meet the WP:SOLDIER requirements. Also, this comment by Necrothesp is very well taken, considering what has been happening on Wikipedia lately. Ejgreen77 (talk) 10:57, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Don't Let's Be Beastly to the Germans. I note that no-one seems to have taken any notice of 's relisting comment: "While there has been the assertion of sources being present they have not been listed in a way that let's others verify notability. The majority of discussion is over how we should use the essay NSOLDIER and this is the wrong place for such a discussion." In fact, this exact point has now been made twice.—Brigade Piron (talk) 12:33, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Most comments have actually said that he's notable because he clearly meets the criteria of WP:SOLDIER, which provides a presumption of notability rather than non-notability for generals as some strangely seem to misinterpret it as doing. Given this is a recognised Wikipedia notability standard (despite it only being an essay) this is a perfectly legitimate thing to say, given that reliable sources have been provided proving that he did hold general officer rank. I'm afraid that they have not been listed in a way that let's others verify notability is utter rubbish. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:54, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Again, I have no idea how it is possible to read WP:SOLDIER in the way you suggest: "In general, an individual is presumed to be notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources. It is presumed that individuals will almost always have sufficient coverage to qualify if they [meet a listed condition]". I really don't see the issue, since the "significant coverage" requirement is basically fundamental to Wikipedia as a project.—Brigade Piron (talk) 16:38, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * It is presumed that individuals will almost always have sufficient coverage to qualify if they [meet a listed condition]. Precisely. Meeting the SNG criteria (which he clearly does) is a presumption of notability! I just don't get why this is confusing to some editors. It's quite clear from the opinions expressed here (and in many other similar AfDs) that it is quite clear to most. -- Necrothesp (talk) 22:49, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * WP:SOLDIER is not an SNG; it's an essay. --K.e.coffman (talk) 00:23, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Which as we all know has long been accepted as an SNG. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:49, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Necrothesp you continue to misrepresent WP:SOLDIER first as though its a rule and then in relation to the presumption. As was noted by User:EyeSerene in the [] discussion that led to the WP:SOLDIER essay "significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources is non-negotiable; without this, a person is not notable and can't have an article." Rather than referring to your list of military bio AfDs, you should look at that discussion to see what was the basis for WP:SOLDIER. Mztourist (talk) 08:32, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

KEEP. I believe there is coverage in sources — though I'd have to do some digging. Dapi89 (talk) 18:30, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (T): does not meet WP:BASIC. The often-mentioned WP:SOLDIER is a project-specific essay, not a notability guideline / SNG. Most of the "keep" ivotes are thus not policy-based. The sources offered above -- http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Personenregister/T/ThomaHeinrich.htm and http://wwiihistorycenter.org/research_database/germany/germanmilitarypersonnelt.html are non-RS and, at best, represent a rendition of some primary source. In the absence of significant coverage, a redirect to a list article where the subject is mentioned is the best approach. --K.e.coffman (talk) 00:21, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * However Notability_(people) refers editors to WP:SOLDIER, which means the community has accepted WP:SOLDIER as a valid guide on the notability of military personnel. --Nug (talk) 02:53, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Precisely. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:49, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh, come on! Notability_(people) makes the specific caveat that: "People are likely to be notable if they meet any of the following standards. Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included. " —Brigade Piron (talk) 09:09, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh, come on! How does that make your claim any more valid, given, as you cite above, Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included. AfDs have generally accepted that meeting the criteria of WP:SOLDIER is a valid reason to keep. There is huge precedent and consensus for this, as I have shown. As I have said, with two exceptions (one from years ago which would probably hold no water today; one from a country that promotes ludicrous numbers of officers to general rank), no two-star or more senior officer has ever been deleted at AfD, and only a tiny number of one-star officers ever have been. WP:IDONTLIKEIT, which is all you're effectively saying, is no reason to go against that precedent and consensus. It's been built over many years for a reason. -- Necrothesp (talk) 22:48, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I fear this discussion is going round in circles. I have never argued that generals cannot be notable in principle and I accept the proposition in WP:SOLDIER that generals will often be notable. However, I believe, based on the policies already set out extensively above, that it is "significant coverage" in reliable sources that is determinitive - in this area, as in any other in Wikipedia. A couple of mentions of someone's existence, in my opinion, cannot come close to meeting this requirement. —Brigade Piron (talk) 09:22, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * You've conveniently ignored Mitcham, which is a perfectly reliable source. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:51, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

Lakers du Lac Saint-Louis

Lakers du Lac Saint-Louis was a Canadian women's semi-professional soccer club based in Lachine, Montréal, Quebec that played in the Première ligue de soccer du Québec.

History
The club was formed by the Association Régionale de Soccer du Lac St-Louis to participate in the newly formed women's division of the Première ligue de soccer du Québec, taking the regional approach, rather than to have one of their member clubs form a team. Patrick Viollat was named the club's head coach. The team had a disappointing season finishing in last place. After the first season, they departed the league, with the association transferring control of the team over to CS Mont-Royal Outremont, one of its member clubs for 2019.

Physics Study Guide/Work

=Work =

Work is equal to the scalar product of force and displacement.

The scalar product of two vectors is defined as the product of their lengths with the cosine of the angle between them. Work is equal to force times displacement times the cosine of the  angle  between the directions of force and displacement.

Work is equal to change in  kinetic energy  plus change in  potential energy  for example the potential energy due to gravity.

Work is equal to average  power  times ''' time. '''

The Work done by a force taking something from point 1 to point 2 is

Work is in fact just a transfer of energy. When we 'do work' on an object, we transfer some of our energy to it. This means that the work done on an object is its increase in energy. Actually, the kinetic energy and potential energy is measured by calculating the amount of work done on an object. The gravitational potential energy (there are many types of potential energies) is measured as 'mgh'. mg is the weight/force and h is the distance. The product is nothing but the work done. Even kinetic energy is a simple deduction from the laws of linear motion. Try substituting for v^2 in the formula for kinetic energy.

Variables

Definition of terms

When work is applied to an object or a system it adds or removes kinetic energy to or from that object or system. More precisely, a net force in one direction, when applied to an object moving opposite or in the same direction as the force, kinetic energy will be added or removed to or from that object. Note that work and energy are measured in the same unit, the joule (J).

Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/File:Numenius madagascariensis 1 - Stockton Sandspit.jpg

Far Eastern Curlew
Voting period ends on 2 Oct 2019  at 04:14:00 (UTC)

 * Reason:Endangered and in my experience are normally pretty difficult to approach - they'll take off if you get with 100 meters. I woke at around 4am drove two hours before dawn and set up with a Ghillie suit in what turned out to be just the right place to get the shot.
 * Articles in which this image appears:Far Eastern curlew
 * FP category for this image:Featured pictures/Animals/Birds
 * Creator:JJ Harrison

 * Support as nominator – JJ Harrison (talk) 04:14, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Discombobulated – How come Pterodroma lessonii is in the photo caption of Numenius madagascariensis ? --Janke | Talk 08:42, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Amazing bird with gorgeous beak, great light, but I find the blurry foreground a bit intrusive aesthetically. Why not truncating it over the black area? -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:26, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I too don't go for the intentionally blurred foreground technique. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:39, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
 * "Inentionally"? I'd really like to see a sharp foreground in a picture shot with a 1200mm lens... ;-) --Janke | Talk 15:02, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
 * The use of 'Intentionally', Janke, is accurate, because JJ has said he takes images from a POV close to the ground. A higher POV wouldn't have the blurred foreground in the shot that JJ likes. Charlesjsharp (talk) 13:10, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

 * The bird looks great, but the "banding" of the picture is a bit too much for me. JJ's images of birds on the ground or sea tend towards this a bit, and it's usually fine, but, here, it seems particularly overpowering, kind of like it was shot super-widescreen, and then a blurry area was added top and bottom to fill in. The divide between sharp and blurry is such a sudden transition, and perfectly level - maybe the top blurry bit is actually a transition in whatever's behind him, but it's still really distracting. That said, it gives absolutely amazing results for birds in branches, like the ones below, so...
 * I could support a crop. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 6.9% of all FPs 20:00, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

 * So would I, but with a little more headroom than in the example, and slice off a bit on both sides, this doesn't need to be a panorama... --Janke | Talk 13:59, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm tring to compromise the amount of the dark brown band visible. Much more than that and it's intrusive. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 6.9% of all FPs 15:01, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Don't really care either way. JJ Harrison (talk) 21:47, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Conditional support – There is an FP in there somewhere. Consider me a full support after some cropping along the lines described above. seems to be away currently and I hope they return in time. If not, an immediate renomination is certainly warranted. ---  Coffee  and crumbs  01:22, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment – there is a better image here, it has more resolution on the bird itself, and better lighting IMO. So I am leaning to oppose the nom image in favor of the other image. My opinion on the nom image: I am Ok with the background bokeh, the foreground isn't too distracting, per Basile Morin above I think it would be an improvement if the bottom ~10% of the image is cropped out (the black or darker portion of the foreground). Bammesk (talk) 02:10, 26 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Question Is the brown band (top third) natural? Oppose the proposed crop. Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:37, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Weak support, either version, but the aspect of the cropped one now looks too elongated, and tight at the top. I would have kept the same ratio W/L and just got rid of the bottom. Well... -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:25, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

Mathematical induction

Description of Mathematical Induction (Proof by Induction)
Mathematical induction is a process of mathematical proof whereby an assumption is made about regarding the given identity being true for a particular number, then demonstrating that the proof is true for a number one greater. If it can then be shown that the proof is true for any particular number, mathematical induction then shows that it is also true for any other integer of greater value.

Picture the process of Mathematical Induction as a sequence of dominoes. It is often used when you want to prove something is true for every whole number, but don't have time to prove all the infinite cases one by one. It has two parts: line up the dominoes, and knock over the first one. Lining up the dominoes means you prove that if the statement is true for one number, it's true for the next number. Knocking over the first domino is just proving that it works for the first number (usually one.) Mathematicians call these the Induction Step and the Base Case.

Example
Suppose you want to prove the statement $$1+2+3+\cdots+n = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$$. What you do is first show that if it works for $$k$$, then it works for $$k+1$$. Note: To prove an if-then statement, you assume the "if" part is true, and show the "then" part has to be true. So here, we assume $$1+2+3+\cdots+k = \frac{k(k+1)}{2}$$ for any one $$k$$. (No, this isn't circular reasoning, it just looks like it!) What we have to show is that $$1+2+3+\cdots+k+(k+1) = \frac{(k+1)(k+1+1)}{2}$$. How? We use our assumption, and substitute it on the left. So we get $$\frac{k(k+1)}{2} + (k+1)= \frac{(k*k +k)}{2} + \frac{(2k+2)}{2}= \frac{(k*k +3k +2}{2}= \frac{(k+1)(k+2)}{2}$$. Then one simplifies further by factoring $$\frac{(k+1)(k+2)}{2}$$ into $$\frac{(k+1)(k+1+1)}{2}$$, thus it works. What did we just show? We showed that IF the formula works for $$k$$, THEN it works for $$k+1$$. And we didn't say what $$k$$ was in advance. This means that we've proven that: if it works for 1, it works for 2, and if it works for 2, it works for 3, and if it works for 3, it works for 4, and so on. We're done lining up the dominoes. But we're not done! We haven't knocked any dominoes over yet! There's one more step: the Base Case. We have to knock over the first domino. When n=1, 1+2+3+...+1 just means "1", and n(n+1)/2 means 1(1+1)/2=1. So since 1=1, the first domino has fallen. And since if it works for 1, it works for 2, we know that the formula works for 2 now. And since if it works for 2, it works for 3, we know the formula works for 3 now, with no extra work. And since if it works for 3, it works for 4, and so on, we know the formula ALWAYS WORKS. We've proven it for every natural number! That's mathematical induction.

There's also a fancier version called Strong Induction, which is a lot like setting up those pretty branching lines of dominoes. Essentially, you get to assume that the formula works for every number up to k, and then have to show it works for k+1. This is good for problems where you can cut the problem up into something smaller, but not necessarily one unit smaller.

Note
This process does not attempt to form identities which are true statements, it simply proves that a given statement is true.

Talk:Donkey Kong Jr. Math/GA2

GA Reassessment
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.''

Reading through this again, there's definitely some major problems with it that I think makes it fail the GA criteria. This is a pretty old GA (it was nominated and passed in 2011), and obviously the standards for GAs have been changed since then, but the quality is still rather poor. For the reasons I have stated, I vote to delist this. Namcokid47 (talk) 17:49, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * 1) None of the Gameplay is sourced. None. For a GA, everything needs to be sourced so as to prevent bogus information from being added or from making assumptions about things that can't be verified.
 * 2) There is a glaring lack of a development section, only a release section, which in my experience with writing GAs is a necessity.
 * 3) Multiple "Citation Needed" templates in the Release section.
 * 4) Lots of the release dates are not sourced.
 * 5) Lots of the sources in general have inconsistent dates.
 * 6) The Reception section has zero reviews from the game's original release. If none can be found it's okay, but the article states "Since its release for the NES, Donkey Kong Jr. Math has been a critical and commercial disappointment". How can it be determined it was met with negative reviews in its original release if none of them are in the article?
 * I do appreciate the diligence to mind outdated GAs, but you really need to let people know and, ideally, bring up these issues in a non-official way (ie, just posting on the talk page and @ing the nominator), avoiding going through a more bureaucratic process if all issues can be addressed. It feels a little rude particularly that you did not message me about the GAR, as I would not have known about the GAR if this wasn't on my watchlist. - Bryn (talk)  (contributions) 21:10, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm still very new to reassessing outdated GA articles (this is only the second I've done, after Dishaster), so I'm still getting used to how it works. So I do apologize on that behalf. In response to the line about being able to address these issues, I'm not sure if that is even really possible. There's nothing I could find on the game's development, nor was I able to find any reviews from around the time period it was released. Had I been able to find them I would gladly have just added them to the page and moved on with my day, but considering that I couldn't, and that I noticed several more errors with the article itself, I feel as if a GAR is needed. Namcokid47 (talk) 21:19, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't really see that, but again, nothing is really harmed by delaying the GAR process and giving time for the issues to be addressed. While you may not have found information, that information may still very well exist. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 21:47, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Um.....what? Just because you think the information out there exists should not at all make this GAR invalid. That's ridiculous. I haven't found anything that could help address the criticisms I've brought up, we can't just be assuming things. That isn't how this stuff works. Namcokid47 (talk) 21:57, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I didn't say that the GAR was invalid? I'm just giving you advice. I was making the point that it's a good practice to not go straight to a GAR, as bringing it up first with the note that it may go to GAR if the issues aren't addressed gives the chance to avoid GAR altogether while potentially fixing the issues. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 22:57, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

 * 1) Release section has been expanded into Development.
 * 2) No longer an issue.
 * 3) No longer an issue.
 * 4) No longer an issue.
 * 5) Found one review from the time period, though the assertion that it received negative reception in its time is now supported with a citation.

As it is, the only issues that need to be dealt with are the citations for Gameplay and a general quality improvement. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 08:21, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

The Gameplay section is now sourced, and the Development section has been improved. I believe at this point there is nothing outstanding for the GAR to stay open. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 20:47, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I think some of the writing could be improved (such as in the lead and bits of the Development), but it looks a lot better now. Good job. I'll close this. Namcokid  47  (Contribs) 22:15, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

2019 World Athletics Championships – Men's 5000 metres

The men's 5000 metres at the 2019 World Athletics Championships was held at the Khalifa International Stadium in Doha from 27 to 30 September 2019.

Summary
The semi-final heats were held on Friday, in which all three Ethiopian athletes qualified for the final. All three Norwegian athletes also qualified, after European Champion Jakob Ingebrigtsen successfully appealed a disqualification for stepping past the curb of the track during his heat. In the first heat, Aruba's Jonathan Busby was struggling to finish the distance. Braima Suncar Dabó of Guinea-Bissau, who had already finished the race, returned to help his fellow competitor over the finish line, winning applause from the crowd and a nomination for the International Fair Play Award.

During the final, the Ethiopians employed effective team tactics by taking early control of the race, setting a strong pace, and switching leaders once every two laps. Defending Champion Muktar Edris darted out to the front, with his teammates Selemon Barega and Telahun Haile Bekele following closely. Olympic silver medalist Paul Chelimo and his teammate Hassan Mead of the U.S. stayed close as well, along with Canadian-record holder Mohammed Ahmed, Kenyans Jacob Krop and Nicholas Kimeli, and Bahraini athlete Birhanu Balew. Initially, the Ingebrigtsen brothers stayed towards the rear of the leading group, and even briefly lost contact with the front - presumably to conserve energy until the swift early pace had settled down.

The Ethiopian team aggressively defended their lead throughout the first 4000m of the race and switched leaders once every 800 meters like clockwork. Edris took the lead for the first two laps, running the first lap in a quick 61.5 seconds, and a slower second lap of 65.9 seconds. At 800 meters, his teammate Bekele took over the lead and increased the pace. At 1600m, Barega went to the front and continued pushing the fast pace that his teammates had set. After 2400m, Bekele took the lead again. The pace began to decrease slightly, despite that it was still quick enough for Bekele to bring the pack through 3 kilometers in 7:53.0. This allowed the Ingebrigtsen brothers to catch up to the leading group and start moving up through the pack. Chelimo (and briefly, Filip Ingebrigtsen) led for less than one lap, before Barega recaptured the lead around 3400m. The fast pace was continuing to slightly decrease as Barega led the pack for one more lap. With three laps to go, and as the pace slowed, Ahmed moved to the front and tried make a long run for the finish line.

The final kilometer of the race was extremely hectic. The athletes were positioned far too close to each other, considering how quickly and aggressively they were running. For the next two laps, the athletes consistently bumped into one another, clipped each other's heels, and lost their balance - with some competitors pushing and almost falling over each other. Between 1000 and 600 meters remaining, Ahmed attempted to escape the chaos by injecting a brutal 59.9 second lap. The other athletes, however, were unrelenting and stuck to Ahmed like glue. Ahmed visibly threw his arms up in frustration after the other athletes continued to clip his heels and prevent him from running the inside line despite his vicious sub-60 lap. Heavily affected by the fast pace and physical contact with other athletes, Filip Ingebrigtsen dropped out with 550m remaining, which left Jakob Ingebrigtsenas the remaining Ingebrigtsen sibling in contention for a medal. As he chased Ahmed on the penultimate straightaway, he clipped Ahmed's heels once more, causing him to almost trip and fall.

On the final lap, Jakob Ingebrigtsen made an early, aggressive move to the front. Chelimo attempted to stay with him. Ahmed, Barega, and Edris were all wise to this error, and did not challenge Ingebrigtsen as aggressively as Chelimo did. Barega and Edris passed Ahmed as they began winding up their pace in preparation for their final attack. As Ingebrigtsen and Chelimo began running out of steam off of the final bend, Barega passed them first, with Edris coming wide on the outside. Edris sprinted past Barega to defend his title, with a final lap of 55 seconds. Ahmed and Bekele passed Ingebrigtsen and Chelimo for the third and fourth place, respectively. Evidently suffering from his early move, Jakob Ingebrigtsen was slowing rapidly, and dove at the finish line for a very close fifth place. He then laid on the track, visibly exhausted.

Two Brains
The passage on his nickname currently reads: "Due to his careful intellectual approach, ties to academia, his unusually policy-heavy background and his high hairline, he has acquired the nickname "Two Brains"." The soure provided refers to him once as "Two Brains", it does not discuss reasons. It certainly is the case that he is quite widely referred to as "Two Brains", there are no shortage of sources to support that. However, the reasons for the nickname appear to be a different matter. The passage to me sounds uncomfortably peacock like. The only source that I could get that might support the passage is this New Scientist article. Unfortunately, that source was written after the passage in question was added to this article. That suggests to me that this article might have been used as a source for the New Scientist article. As for other sources, they suggest reasons such as his analyitical skills and intelligence  or his "intellectual theorising on future Conservative policy". Whilst the last confirms intellectual it is perhaps slightly less flattering way than "careful intellectual approach" Pit-yacker (talk) 00:14, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

--- I have a a change I made reverted by a user named Super48paul,Super48paul a user using a bot to spot edits to contentious people. They left an unsigned message on my talk page saying the original "seemed better". No further justification was given. My change ( "due to his .. -> due to a perceived careful intellectual approach". http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=David_Willetts&diff=cur&oldid=589671364) altered a non-NPOV phrasing to something more neutral. The reference to the guardian article where he is named Two Brains, does not make the claim he makes thoughtful intellectual approaches to things, just a claim that he was grammar school "swot". As it is unverifiable and subjective kind of thing I doubt It can be found outside of opinion pieces by his friends or enemies, or only in relation to more bull-in-a china shop politicians not the population at large.

I agree with Pit-yacker above. Furthermore I say that the entire this whole section is flattery. Two Brains as a nick name is not notable. Some politicians and opinion piece writers routinely sling around party political praise or ad-hominem name calling. I see "Red Ed", "Camoron", "Gidiot", "Georgeous George" and "Ginger Rodent" to name some cross party examples don't get any special sections on their relative pages (though for some reason "red ed" redirects to Miliband~ sigh). Considering the top importance of this article in the politics project, I argue this revert should be un-done soon should no one else speak up for or against. The facts about his membership of certain groups and book writing could be in other sections. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 22:37, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

I've deleted this "two brains" reference and renamed the remainder of actual facts to "Other Interests". If and when a minder shows up to correct it we can have their reasons given here or put a watch on them for intentional vandalism / NPOV. I doubt anyone is very interested in all this civic conservatism stuff either.. "an audacious attempt by the Conservative Party's leading intellectual to relate a new Tory narrative". Gimme a break! 2A02:C7F:6C24:0:8DBC:56FF:9CAC:601E (talk) 20:42, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

Education
What is David Willett's first class degree in?

The article says that he studied politics, economics, philosphy.

Is his degree the joint degree that was called PPE perhaps?

Nancy Worman (born 1963) is Professor of Classics at Barnard and Columbia University. She is an expert on ancient Greek drama and oratory, on ancient literary criticism and literary theory, and on the reception of ancient Greece in the post-classical world.

Career
Worman was educated at Barnard College, where she received her BA; she later received her PhD from Princeton University, in 1994. Between 1994 and 1996 she taught at Rutgers and Yale. She is currently Professor of Classics and Comparative Literature at Barnard College, where she has taught since 1996. She has also held a visiting associate professorship at Harvard University (2007-2008), and a visiting professorship at Cornell University (2012). She was awarded an Ann Whitney Olin Professorship in 2016.

Worman's research interests include style and the body in performance in classical Greek drama and its reception, as well as rhetoric and ancient and modern literary theory. Her work on landscape in her co-edited volume Space, Place and Landscape in Ancient Greek Literature and Culture (2014) was funded by a Loeb Fellowship and a Mellon-SIRT grant. She has also worked on feminist receptions of ancient Greece, with her 2018 work ''Virginia Woolf’s Greek Tragedy. Classical Receptions in Twentieth-Century Writing'' described as "excellent... nuanced [and] radical." In 2022 her monograph Tragic Bodies: Edges of the Human in Greek Drama won the PROSE Award for Classics.

Proper noun

 * 1)   Seoul, Gyeongseong or Keijō

Etymology 1
From. First cited to a text from 706. In turn, from.

Possibly encountered in older texts with the reading, using the older goon pronunciation for both characters.

Use to refer to Seoul was based in part on the older name, and in part on the Japanese sense of "imperial capital", in referring to the city as the center of administration under the Japanese Empire. The city was also informally called in Korean during the  dynasty (1392–1897). See also

Noun

 * 1)  the emperor's residence, the imperial palace
 * 2)  the capital, especially within an empire

Proper noun

 * 1)    Seoul, also known as Gyeongseong (the Korean reading of these same Chinese characters) and Keijō

Electronics/Diodes

Diode
Theoretically, a diode allows current flow in only one direction. An ideal diode acts as a perfect insulator for currents flowing in one direction and as a perfect conductor for currents flowing through it in the other direction. The direction in which the diode allows current to flow is called the forward bias direction and that in which current is resisted is called reverse bias direction. Diode has a symbol as shown
 * [[Image:Diode symbol.svg]]

Construction
The modern semiconductor diode consists of two regions of semiconductor each having impurities of different types such that one side has excess holes (p-region) and the other has excess electrons (n-region). Such a junction of p and n regions is called a pn junction diode. The p-region has about twice as much area as the n-region to compensate for the lesser mobility of holes compared to electrons.
 * + o-- [P | N]--o - .Theoretically, a diode allows current flow in only one direction the most common type today  is a crystalline piece of material with a p junction connected to two electrical terminals.

I V Curve

As seen in the graph above the diode actually works in both the forward region and the backward region. In the forward region the value of I and V are positive and in the backward region I and V are negative.

Forward Region

 * Current and Voltage are positive
 * When V < Vd . I = 0 . Diode does not conduct
 * Khi V = Vd . I = 1mA . Diode starts to conduct . Vd = 0.3v|Ge, 0.6v|Si
 * Vd is called Forward Break Over Voltage
 * Khi V > Vd . Diode conducts current . Current is calculated by $$I = I_o [e^{(\frac{V_d}{nV_T})t} - 1]$$

Backward Region

 * Current and Voltage are Negative
 * When the value of voltage is more negative than the Peak Inverse Voltage (PIV) Voltage the Diode will be destroyed

Ideal Diode
The real diode approaches the ideal diode in the sense that the reverse current is extremely small (less than 1fA) at least for a significant part of the characteristic, and the forward current is very high (on the order of 1mA). Although a real diode does not have the characteristics as the ideal diode, in theory it is possible to make an ideal diode if the concentrations of dopants in both the regions are infinite. However, there is no way of actually doing this and experiments do not agree.

The Shockley equation
The diode reverse (saturation) current is governed by the doping concentration. The current flowing through the device varies as the voltage applied across it changes as given by the Shockley diode equation (not to be confused with Schottky):

$$I_D = I_S [ exp(V_D/nV_T) - 1 ]$$

In the equation above $$V_T$$ is defined as $$V_T = k T/q$$, where $$k$$ is Boltzmann's constant, $$T$$ is the temperature in Kelvin, and $$q$$ is the magnitude of the charge on an electron.

In the forward bias direction, current flows with low voltage. If one draws a characteristic for this equation, a sharp increase in current can be seen at a particular voltage called the cut-in voltage or the on-voltage.

In the reverse bias mode, the diode current is approximately $$-I_S$$. This is called the reverse saturation current because it looks like the diode is saturated with charge and cannot allow more current in the reverse bias direction than this.

It initially appears that as the temperature $$T$$ increases, the total diode current would decrease. However, the saturation current $$I_S$$ increases with temperature faster than the $$V_T$$ term decreases the current. This leads to a negative temperature coefficient for the entire device: as the diode heats up, it will pass more current.

Break-down
However, a break from the above equation takes place at a point called break-down voltage. One could think of it as the point where the Shockley equation breaks down and is no longer valid. There are two reasons for breakdown to occur.

Avalanche Breakdown
 * This occurs as a result of excess minority carriers in a region. Minority carriers are those carriers that are in the wrong region. For example, electrons will be minority carriers in the p-region.

Zener Breakdown
 * This is basically due to a size difference or dopant concentration difference. One of the regions has a greater region of depletion (Reverse bias voltage induces a depletion region, which is sparse in a densely doped region and dense in a sparsely doped region. )

See also Zener diodes

Summary
So basically, there are three modes in which a diode operates:

Forward
 * No current flows until a small forward voltage is reached called cut-in voltage.

Reverse
 * The diode prevents current from flowing in the opposite direction. Current is small, and voltage can be large (but not exceeding the Zener voltage.)

Breakdown
 * Once the diode voltage is more negative than the Zener voltage, the diode allows current to flow in the reverse direction.

When there is no voltage applied, the excess electrons of the N type semiconductor flow into the holes of the P type semiconductor. This creates a depletion region that acts as a voltage.

Diode Variations
Bridge Rectifier:
 * A diode circuit that 'rectifies' alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). The bridge rectifier is a full-wave rectifier, meaning that both the positive and negative portions of the wave become positive.  (In a half-wave rectifier, positive stays positive, and negative becomes zero.)  The bridge rectifier has advantages over other full-wave rectifier designs, because it reduces peak-inverse voltage (PIV), the largest negative voltage across a single junction diode.  By reducing the PIV, it becomes possible to use diodes with lower breakdown (Zener) voltages.  This allows the use of cheaper diodes to perform the same function.
 * 4 Diode Bridge Rectifier.png

LED (Light Emitting Diode)
 * A diode that emits light!
 * [[Image:LED symbol.svg]]

Schottky:
 * A diode made from a metal-semiconductor junction, rather than an p-type/n-type silicon junction. These diodes typically have a much lower forward voltage drop than standard diodes (around 0.2V versus 0.6V).
 * [[Image:Schottky diode symbol.svg]]

Zener:
 * A diode that is meant to be operated in the breakdown region. These diodes have lower Zener (breakdown) voltages, so that they can achieve the breakdown mode without melting. Unlike other diodes, these have very specific breakdown voltages, typically between 2 and 200 volts. See also Zener diodes
 * [[Image:Zener diode symbol.svg]]

Varicap:
 * A diode that is build to use the capacity in dependance of the cross voltage. Although they rectify, they will be used in tuning circuits as a replacement of manual operated variable capacitors. They permit the use of electronic equipment to be controlled, this permits a phase-locked loop and other circuits which needs stability and electronic control. Semiconductor diodes begin conducting electricity under certain conditions.

Mad (band)

Mad is a hard rock band from Buenos Aires, Argentina. They debuted in 1997.

Biography
Formed in 1996, the band consists of Tomy Casparri (lead vocals), Diego Castelli (bass), Julián Méndez Morgan (guitar), Pelusa Suffloni (guitar) and Rodrigo Chaparro (drums). With a "sound of powerful and overwhelming rock" they began by playing in the local underground rock scene.

They soon recorded their self-titled debut album 'MAD' which was released in 1998 and gained reasonable radio airplay having been well received by the critics. They were subsequently invited to play in several rock festivals organised by Rock and Pop FM and recorded two songs for a 4K Records CD compilation.

In 2000, Mad was chosen by Eric Singer (former drummer of KISS) to support him for his KISS Exposition in Buenos Aires. In the same year they were chosen to play twice in Mar Del Plata city and also in Buenos Aires as the headlining act at a music festival organised by the national beer, Quilmes.

In January 2001, Mad played to a crowd of 50,000 people in the Monsters Of Rock Festival opening for Iron Maiden, Rob Halford and Queens of the Stone Age at José Amalfitani Stadium. They also appeared in several shows at the club Cemento, widely regarded as the "temple of Argentine rock" having hosted many famous bands in Argentine rock history such as Redonditos de Ricota, Las Pelotas and A.N.I.M.A.L. The shows were excellently produced and during this time Mad were very much the "band of the moment".

In mid-2001 they entered the "El Pie" recording studio to record "En Llamas" (In Flames), their second album. Produced by 4K Records/Sony Music the first single "Pajarito On The Rocks" soon became a big hit, for which a video was made.

In 2004 the guitarist Nicolas Barreiro jumped into the new lineup, and the band recorded its third album "Seguí La Flecha" (Follow The Arrow) produced by Adrián Taverna (Divididos, Attaque 77, Redonditos de Ricota, Soda Stereo, Riff, Gustavo Cerati). From this album, several radio hits were born, like "La Rueda", "Imperdonable" and "El Postre", a song for which another music video was made starring Playboy Playmate Celina Rucci.

A special electric/acoustic "unplugged" style show was recorded in December 2005 and in 2007 was released as a live album. They followed this show with a performance at the Cosquin Rock Festival held by San Roque lakeside in the province of Cordoba.

April 2006 was a turbulent time for the band losing two members. Drummer Plato Caressa left by mutual agreement on friendly terms after he felt he could not commit himself fully to the band. Replacement Vasco Urionagüena soon became accustomed to his role having acted as Plato's stand-in on previous occasions.

Lead singer Tomy Caspari was suddenly ejected from the band and they have issued no official statement as to the reason for his departure.

The band ceased performing for several months whilst they held auditions to find a suitable replacement for Tomy and eventually found an ideal frontman "El Gato" which initially caused some concern amongst the fans due in part to many suggesting he looks like English pop singer Robbie Williams, and may not have the hard-edged Brian Johnson style vocals that Tomy emulated.

Following some intensive practice sessions and a website re-launch the band has embarked on a string of gigs throughout Argentina and the new line-up has been well received by both the media and fans.

Talk:Distributed Virtual Supercomputer

I found this at the computer science portal:
 * Proposed Learning project: 3DTheater.org - 3D Framework and SDK for live or scripted networked 3D Video-Game quality Wikiversity events such as school plays, sporting events, class sessions or virtual social events. Any 3D renderable setting may be explored.[] Any variation of live acting, scripted actor sequences or Artificial Intelligent natural language responses may be incorporated. Any new Virtual 3D Sport may be created to obey its own laws of physics. Any other conceivable (legal and ethical) use for this virtual space could be entertained. The aim of this project would be to raise the level of user configurability such that--like in these wiki pages--the browser can quickly become the author, rendering assets for our 3D virtual campus, and breaking new ground in the field of virtual technology.
 * This will take a lot of computer resource like what is proposed or a lot of cash to implement, maybe both. Mirwin 18:04, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

I think getting people use to distributed computing first, then talking about developing a BONIC project. Probably in another year or so we will have enough computer science people that would be interested. As it stands now, Com sci is are most popular area.--Rayc 20:32, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

Merry band of volunteers
This is a facinating project. I agree with Rayc that it may be ahead of its time, but I also see the need to get a seed server in place. The Sandbox Server may be a possibility, so I listed this project on that page. Mirwin, if you have the time, meet us at #wikiversity-en and we might can sift through some details in real time.

 * Oh btw, our local Linux/BSD user group, PaducahNix has been at Stanford's Folding@home project for a couple of years and ranked 718th as of this post. (No brag, just fact.) CQ 05:25, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
 * CQ, I left you a note basically saying lets discuss the details asynchrounously here if you and Rayc do not mind. I am not really familar with or setup for IRC. Mirwin 08:30, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Active?
Is this project active at all? Is it worth advertising it on the Getting involved page? What can people do to get involved? Cormaggio talk 13:00, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
