Learning Java/Introduction to Java

What is Java?
Java is an Object-Oriented, cross platform, multi-purpose programming language produced by Sun Microsystems. First released in 1995, it was developed to be a machine independent web technology. It was based on C and C++ syntax to make it easy for programmers from those communities to learn. Since then, it has earned a prominent place in the world of computer programming.

Java has many distinct characteristics that have contributed to its popularity:
 * Platform independence - Many languages are compatible with only one platform. Java was specifically designed so that it would run on any computer, regardless if it was running Windows, Linux, Mac, Unix or any of the other operating systems.
 * Simple and easy to use - Java's creators tried to design it so code could be written efficiently and easily.
 * Multi-functional - Java can produce many applications from command-line programs to applets to Swing windows (basically, sophisticated graphical user interfaces).

History of Java
See History of Java article section at Wikipedia

The Java Platform
One thing that distinguished Java from some other languages is its ability to run the same compiled code across multiple operating systems.

In these other languages such as C or C++ the source code, or the instructions which are written by the developer, is compiled by a compiler into an object file, which is then linked with other object files to create an executable file. This file is in machine language, and is intended for a single operating system/processor combination. This means that the developer would have to compile the program separately for separate operating system/processor combinations.

Java is different in that it does not compile the code into machine language code. Compilation creates bytecode out of the source code. Source code is written and stored in files with the extension of .java, and after compilation a file with a ".class" extension is created which contains the bytecode instructions. Bytecode generally looks something like this: public class UserDetails extends java.lang.Object{ public UserDetails; Code: 0:	aload_0 1:	invokespecial	#1; //Method java/lang/Object." ":V 4:	return

public UserDetails(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String); Code: 0:	aload_0 1:	invokespecial	#1; //Method java/lang/Object." ":V 4:	aload_0 5:	aload_1 6:	putfield	#2; //Field userName:Ljava/lang/String; 9:	aload_0 10:	aload_2 11:	putfield	#3; //Field password:Ljava/lang/String; 14:	aload_0 15:	aload_3 16:	putfield	#4; //Field email:Ljava/lang/String; 19:	return

public UserDetails(java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String); Code: 0:	aload_0 .... } To view the bytecode of a compiled Java program one can execute the following command at the command-line: javap -c NameOfClassFile where NameOfClassFile is the file ending in ".class" which was generated during compile time.

When the code is run by the user, it is processed by  Java Virtual Machine (JVM). The JVM is essentially an interpreter for the bytecode. At execution time the JVM translates the compiled bytecode into machine language which can then be executed by the hardware. There are different versions of the JVM which are compatible with various operating systems, allowing the same code to be executed on different platforms. This makes little difference to the end-user, however it greatly reduces the effort needed to develop cross-platform applications on the part of the developer.

Installing the Java Development Kit
The Java Development Kit (JDK) contains the core libraries and compiler required to develop Java, and it is distributed by Sun. The JDK should not be confused with the JRE (Java Runtime Environment). The JRE is a virtual machine for running, as opposed to compiling, Java programs.

Downloading and Installing
To download the JDK, go to http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp. Click on "JDK 6 Update 3 with NetBeans 6.0". Follow the instructions for downloading the JDK installation file. If you are running Windows, simply run the executable file and follow the installation instructions. If you are using UNIX, Solaris or Linux, it might take a little more work.

If you are using a Macintosh, the latest available JDK is automatically installed by the operating system. Because Java on the Macintosh is developed and maintained by Apple, in coordination with Sun, the current version on the Macintosh may not be the current version that is available from Sun.

Note on Editions
The JDK comes in three editions. Now the '2' has been dropped from the name and is generally referred to as Java SE/EE/ME. Also JDK 1.5 is JDK 5 and so on.
 * Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE) This is the basic platform for Java. This is the one this course uses.
 * Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) This edition is mainly for developing and running distributed multi-tier architecture Java applications, based largely on modular software components running on an application server. We will not be covering this version in this course.
 * Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) This is primarily for developing programs to run on consumer appliances, such as PDAs and cell phones.

Configuring Variables
Before writing code, it is recommended that you set the Path variable on your system so you can compile your code more easily.

For Windows Users

 * From the Control Panel, double click "System"
 * For XP and 2000, click on the "Advanced" tab and click on "Environment Variables" For NT, click on the "Environment" tab.
 * Under System variables Select the Path variable and click "Edit"
 * Add the path to the bin directory of where Java is installed on your hard drive. It should probably be: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin unless you changed it during installation.
 * Click OK

For Linux and UNIX
One way to set your path in Linux/Unix is to add a path export to your bash profile.

"pico ~/.bash_profile" "export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/jdk/bin" Note that the path to the java directory "/usr/local/jdk/bin" may be different on your machine.
 * In order to do this, first open your bash profile in a text editor. For example,
 * Then add this line:
 * Restart your shell.

For Macintosh
Apple sets everything up for you. Sit back and relax.

The only drawback is that because Apple handles development and maintenance of Java on the Mac, there is usually a delay from the time that a new version is released by Sun and the time that the new version is released on the Mac. Also, getting the latest version sometimes requires an operating system upgrade.

Oh well, you can't have everything.

"Hello World"
Anytime you learn a computer programming language, it is tradition that the first program you write should be to make your computer say, "Hello World". This is a small feat, but is a good opportunity to make sure that you installed the JDK properly.

The Java compiler reads basic text files. Open up a text editor like Notepad (do not use a complex program like Microsoft Word for this). Type this code, remembering that Java is case-sensitive: Here's the JDK 1.5 or later version of Hello World

Save this file as HelloWorld.java. Start your system's command line and navigate to the folder that you saved HelloWorld.java to. Type. This runs the java compiler, javac, and creates a class file, which contains the bytecode for the application. Next type. This runs the class file that was just created by the compiler. Your console should print: Hello World! Congratulations - you finished reading Intro to Java. Now, you can move on to Basic Java Language

Advertorialized article about a short film, not properly referenced as passing WP:NFILM. As always, every film is not automatically guaranteed a Wikipedia article just because it exists -- we look for markers of a film's significance, such as notable film awards or attention from established film critics in media, not just technical verification of the film's existence. But right across the board, the review pullquotes here are all from unreliable and non-notability-making blogs rather than real media outlets, and I can't find any evidence whatsoever of coverage in stronger sources. In addition, it warrants note that the article was created by an editor whose username matches the name of the film's director, thus indicating a clear conflict of interest.

C++/Classes and Inheritance

Classes are the building blocks of programs built using the object-oriented methodology. Such programs consist of independent, self-managing modules and their interactions. An object is an instance of such a module, and a class is its definition.

Abstract example
To illustrate classes and objects, we will use a dog.

Dog:

char name int gender int age int size bool healthy

A dog has several variables: name, the gender of the dog, the age of the dog, its size, and whether it is healthy or not. These variables are called properties. This definition would go in a class. An instance of a dog, say, a dog named Lucy, would be an object. So would a dog named Ruffy. You can have multiple instances of a class, just like you can have multiple dogs. Properties are like "inner variables" of each object made of type Dog.

struct Dog
We have just defined what a dog is. Let us make a couple of dogs...

In this short example, we have created two objects of the type Dog. One is lucy, and the other is ruffy. We have set lucy's gender to 1, and ruffy's gender to 2. Also, we've set lucy's age to 3, and ruffy's to 5. However, having such information publicly accessible can be dangerous. A bug in your program, for example, could cause the unintended change of the properties of one of the dogs! You wouldn't want a bug in your software to cause lucy to be sick, would you?

class Dog
Structs are containers whose properties are always public. In order to gain control over what is public and what isn't, we will have to use a class. Let us see how the Dog class would look like in a class instead of a struct:

Now our dogs' precious properties aren't public for everyone to view and change. However, this raises a little problem: we can't change them either. Only other dogs can see and change them. In order to be able to access a Dog's private properties, we would have to make a function to do so. This brings us to our next chapter.

Dogs with Methods
Classes can have functions in them. These functions are called methods. Methods can access all, and even private, properties and methods (yes, methods can be private) of its class. Let us make some methods to get our dog's information...

However, if we run this program, we might have a little problem. We have never initialized lucy's properties...

Constructors
In order to initialize lucy's properties, we could write a method that would do it for us, and call it every time we make a dog. However, C++ already provides us such a method. A constructor is a method which is called every time a new object is created. To use this nice little thing provided to us by C++, we will have to write a method which returns no value, and has the same name as the class. Here's Dog written using a constructor:

From now on, every dog we instantiate will have the name "Lucy", be of gender 1, aged 3, sized 4 and healthy. Well, what if you want some diversity? No problem. Constructors with parameters!

If you have both constructors in your Dog class, you can now either create a dog as always, which will have the default values (named "Lucy" etc etc), or you could use RAII to make your customized dog as follows:

Inheritance
The inheritance mechanism is a core component of the Object Oriented Programming paradigm. Inheritance means that a class "inherits" another class's definition and type. In the previous chapter, we've covered the "HAS-A" relationship. A dog HAS-A name. In this chapter, we will cover the IS-A relationship. A dog IS-A pet.

Abstract example
A pet is a wonderful concept, don't you think? It's an abstract concept, but we will not cover abstraction here. There are many kinds of pets (dogs, cats, horses...), and they all have some things in common. Pet:

char* name;

char* getName; void voice; void interact(Pet* other); void annoy; Pet(char* dname);

Implementation of Pet
As we already know classes, it shouldn't be a problem to implement Pet in C++. Notice anything different? Yep, the  keyword. This keyword tags a method as overridable. Inheriting classes can override inherited methods. I'll explain it in a moment.

Inheritance
OK. We've got a Pet with a "DEFAULT VOICE". However, a dog barks. Well, we could make a dog class, however note that interact receives a pointer to a Pet. As Pet and Dog are two different classes, pets will be unable to interact with dogs. That's not what we want to do, so we need to somehow make Dog a Pet. One word: Inheritance. Remember how I told you that it'd inherit its type? This is what I have meant. Inheritance is done using the ':' operator, as such:

Overriding
Now we can make Dogs, and they would all have unique names, they could voice, interact with other pets and annoy their lovely owner. However, there's yet one problem. They still have the annoying "DEFAULT VOICE". Well now that we inherit from Pet, we can override its virtual methods. voice is a virtual method, so why not do that now? Overriding looks very similar to declaring a new method, so watch out.

Constructors and inheritance
Now our Dog class functions as intended. However, there's yet one complication... We haven't got a constructor yet.

Constructor calling constructors
Now that Pet knows how to initialize itself, Dog needs to too. Dog can not directly modify its name, so it has to make Pet do it for him. If Pet would have had a constructor that took no arguments, there wouldn't have been a problem and the process would have been automatic. However, Pet has no "default constructor" (a constructor that takes no arguments), and Dog is in a little difficult situation. I'll save you the trouble. This is how it's done: Here we have Dog's constructor getting a desired name, and passing it to Pet's constructor to do the work.

Inheritance in a program
Output: Wooflemeister: Woof! Michael annooys you. Michael: DEFAULT VOICE Wooflemeister: Woof! Wooflemeister annoys you.

Exercise
A family car has a color, a maximum speed and a sunroof. The sunroof can be opened and closed. A cab's color is always yellow and it has a maximum speed. A bicycle has a color, a maximum speed and pedals that can be spun. A truck has a color, a maximum speed, and it can carry a cab or a family car, but not a bicycle. A road can contain any of the above. A policeman has a hat, and can block a road or any vehicle. Tip: You can chain inheritance, and create trees.
 * Design and implement a system of vehicles.

Konaiyur

Konaiyur is a tiny village in Tamil Nadu located at Tiruvannamalai District, Chetpet Taluck in India. Located at three kilometers from the state highway SH-4 from Vinnamangalam (via Nadupattu nad Kudisaikarai), in between Arni and Chetput. The neighboring villages are Periya Kozhappalur, Kudisaikarai, Vinayakapuram, Melanur, Thirumani, Katteri (Gengapuram), and Nariyambadi. Most of the villagers are rice farmers and fewer government employees. The village is located on the Cheyyar River bank, which originates from Jawadhu hills near Chengam and later joins in Palar River at Walajabath.

Due to limited ground water availability, farmers are changing their cultivation method to "deep borewell" instead of traditional wells. Lake irrigation system is almost stopped these days. The existing two lakes' total area is shrinking day by day and government is yet to take any action even after giving many complaints. Recent monsoon rain made the farmers to cheer but again the ground water level has gone below the average level. Agricultural activities are going down again. There were many hand-loom silk weavers, weaving silk sarees for Arni, Kancheepuram Silk, but these days no one is weaving due to less remuneration and health issues.

Village total population is around 1,800. The literacy level is not much satisfactory. But in recent days, all the young boys and girls are performing well in school education. The quality of teachers are much encouraging these days and the village students outperforming compared to the metro students. Konaiyur has only one school with 42 children, studying at Panchayat Union Elementary School, Konaiyur. Classes are conducted here from First to Fifth Standard. Most of the time the school will be operated with only one Head Master & one teacher for all the classes, he/she would be performing multiple task for the children. After completing the elementary school students has to commute to Periya Kolappalur (பெரிய கொழப்பலூர்) Government Higher Secondary School (now the school has been divided as Government Boys Higher Secondary School & Girls High school) to continue their studies up to higher secondary level. Nowadays many private schools operating the VAN facility for the school kids. Such facilities attracts the parents to send their kids to the private schools instead of Government schools. Which in turn make the education costlier but it should be a birth right and free for all the children.

In 2002, the full-fledged telephone connection from the Tamil Nadu government had been installed. For some reason the PSTN lines are discontinued. No copper telephone cable connectivity is present to this village. Nowadays the village is connected to the world arena with the major mobile operators. From year 2004 this village is receiving good quality of television cable connectivity from the nearby town Arni.

Due to the advancement of the wireless technologies (thanks to Nikola Tesla), villagers are able to use the Internet through their mobile connectivity. People are able to use download speed of about 12 Mbps with their 4G mobile phone in outdoor, in indoor it is bit lesser. Wired broadband internet connectivity is a nightmare. HD DTH television technology is providing good international television channels.

Emergency medical facilities are not available for villagers but they need to travel to Periya Kolappalur Govt Hospital 4 km away. New 108 Emergency ambulance service is very much helpful for the village.

People belongs almost 95% are Hindus, remaining Christians and few Muslims. Majority of the population are belongs to Vanniyar, about 20% people are Yadhavar and about 10% of the people belongs to Scheduled Caste. In AD 1900s much varied different caste people were lived here but on now they have been relocated to the metro cities. Many small temples are constructed and renovated in different centuries. The figure which has shown here is the Lakshmi Narayana Perumal Temple constructed in the mid 17th century. Most people celebrated Pongal, Diwali, Ganesh Chaturthi, and Koozvaarthal as major festivals. Pongal, in the month of January and Koozvaarthal in the month of April/May are celebrated in a grandiose manner. Tamil Nadu’s famous Jallikattu used to be played during Pongal festival which adds real color and flavor to the festival. Due to lack of enthusiasm and unavailability of youngsters, passionate game of Jallikattu has been dropped in the recent times.

Earlier, Konaiyur was coming under Vandavasi Lok Sabha constituency. But after the delimitation by the Election Commission of India, now the village is coming under Arani Lok Sabha constituency. Now the village is coming under Chetpet Taluk, previously it was under Vandavasi taluck. The majority of the population belongs to Vanniyar, most of them supporting the state political party Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) and its alliance.

Newly elected panchayat president of Konaiyur village is Mrs. Parameswari Natrajan for five-year term (2020-2025).

On an average daily 250 to 300 liters of good quality A1 & A2 milk is supplied to the private / government dairies. There are four different teams are collecting the milk from the farmers with stringent competition. The cow owners will get the weekly payment for the supplied milk. Actually cow owners are paid Rs.19 (for raw milk), in turn after transporting and processing it in to the cities the packet milk is sold Rs.40 to 50 per liter (after fat removal!!!). Surprisingly, a single liter of bottled water costs Rs.20 or 25 in metros / small towns / villages. Bottled water is having better commercial value (approved by the Government) than the farmers who produce good-quality cow milk.

There are enough fund allocated to the village development by the central and state governments. Many projects are carried out like, Public toilets, Individual household toilets, library, play ground, cement roads, good street lights and 100 day Rural employment Guarantee Scheme.

Mr Mohan Sekar, is a very first doctorate (PhD) from this village. He is the one motivating & real pride to the under developed villages.

War Seminar/Art and War

This is a learn by doing project where Wikiversity participants explore how war is depicted in art and the roles that artistic depictions of war play in society.

Guernica
In her book Art and war, Laura Brandon described Pablo Picasso's painting Guernica as perhaps the twentieth century's "most powerful anti-war statement" (Introduction, page 2).

Learn by doing
Perform a Google image search for "Guernica". How many "Guernica" images are on the internet?

Photojournalism

Photos of dead American soldiers were published for the first time during World War II in Life magazine at the urging of President Roosevelt who feared that the American public was growing complacent about the toll of war. The U.S. government had prevented publication of such photographs during the early months of the war fearing that it would be too demoralizing to the public. This is in contrast to photos of enemy casualties which were regularly published before this ban was lifted.

Compare the publication of the Battle of Buna-Gona photos in Life magazine to the controversy over the publication of photographs of flag-draped coffins of American military personnel killed in action.

Contrast these journalistic photos to the depictions of war in art on this page and elswhere.

How do you feel about the publication of images such as these? How do the views expressed at The PG-Rated War and From the Archive: Not New, Never Easy compare to your thoughts?

Etymology
The etymology has been highly disputed, it is unclear whether the word is of Latin or of Slavic origin.

Many scholars propose one of several possible Latin derivations, either from , or from (accusative of, with the meaning derived from that of the creation or birth of a child, e.g. Jesus' birth on Christmas. Compare the archaic meaning of 🇨🇬, of the same origin (see  and ); compare also 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬. The Romanian word had an older, archaic meaning of “birth” in church or religious usage, and is also used for the holy image of Christ's birth. Other less frequently endorsed Latin etymologies  include: followed by an uncertain second root, such as ; compare 🇨🇬, from , or  , . See also the Romanian suffix.

However, beside 🇨🇬, there is a clearly related Slavic word, dialectal Bulgarian and Macedonian, and 🇨🇬, also passed into 🇨🇬. A genuine Slavic etymology would be, indicating that the Romanian word is a  loan. However, since the word is mostly found in South Slavic (Balkan) languages or in ones that have had contact with Romanian (such as Ruthenian), there is the possibility it was absorbed from proto-Romanian speakers instead. Another, somewhat unlikely, proposition is that it is a paleo-Balkan substratum term related to Albanian, stemming from the pre-Christian tradition of placing branches at houses on the winter solstice or on the Roman festival of Sol Invictus, which took place on the date that later became Christmas (cf. also Italian ).

Proper noun

 * 1) Christmas

Qbugbot 4
Operator:

Time filed: 21:25, Tuesday, September 24, 2019 (UTC)

Function overview: This will resolve self-redirect links in arthropod articles by replacing the redirect page with a new article when possible (around 76% of the time) or by de-linking the self-redirect link.

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic

Programming language(s): vb.net

Source code available: Yes. I will update User:Qbugbot/source before the first test.

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Tree_of_Life/Archive_44#Request_for_comment%2C_qBugbot_and_self-redirects

Edit period(s): 8-24 hours per day

Estimated number of pages affected: 5,500 max

Namespace(s): Mainspace

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: I would like to use qBugbot to resolve some self-redirects in arthropod articles. For clarity, and because it confuses me, when page A links to page B, and page B is a redirect page pointing back to page A, I am saying that page A contains a self-redirect link to page B.

About 585 arthropod articles contain self-redirect links pointing to 5428 redirect pages, excluding links to article subsections.

Here is what I am proposing:

 * A self redirect link in a monotypic genus to its sole species will be de-linked in the genus page.
 * Other self-redirects to species will have the species articles created to replace the redirect.
 * Self-redirect links to genus pages will have an article created to replace the redirect page.
 * Self-redirects to tribes, subfamilies, superfamilies, and higher ranks will be de-linked in general, but some of these articles may be created by the bot after manual review.
 * Self-redirects to families will generally have the article created to replace the redirect, but these pages will be manually reviewed (113 cases).
 * Self-redirect links in Automatic Taxaboxes and Speciesboxes will not be handled by the bot.

New articles can be created for about 4147 of 5428 redirect pages. The other 1253 or so are questionable for one reason or another. For them, the self redirect links will be de-linked and the redirect pages left unchanged.

A list of articles with self-redirect links is on the Qbugbot talk page.

Discussion
BAG assistance needed BAG assistance needed BAG assistance needed
 * Seem to recall that this is a trusted op with a good handle on edits, but let's make sure there are no bugs (pun intended). Primefac (talk) 12:51, 12 October 2019 (UTC)
 * No major problems were encountered. Most edits replaced redirect pages with new articles. One edit removed some links from an existing article, Acerella. I inadvertently did 51 edits instead of 50 due to a mental malfunction.
 * In future runs, the bot will add WikiProject templates to talk pages of articles that replace redirect pages and do not already have the templates. (I forgot about that.) I'll add WikiProject templates to those pages in this trial run when the bot gets authorization. I didn't do it now because I'm not sure whether it would be considered additional edits.
 * Bob Webster (talk) 16:25, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, could you quickly clarify this for me? "the bot will add WikiProject templates to talk pages of articles" is not mentioned anywhere else in this BRFA. Are you requesting to modify this BRFA or are you going to file another one or? -- The SandDoctor Talk 18:38, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
 * When the bot creates an article, it also creates a talk page with something like {WikiProject Insects|class=stub|importance=low} in it. It occurred to me that this should also be done when an article replaces a redirect page. I had intended to do it now, as a slight modification (or clarification) to the BRFA, but if you think it would be better it's no problem to do this as a separate bot run. --Bob Webster (talk) 22:48, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Do you have a list of diffs for review?   Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 23:48, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I just added one to the Qbugbot talk page. Bob Webster (talk) 06:36, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

Are we sure this is a good idea? I mean, this doesn't contain any information beyond what the genus level Acerentomon article had.   Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 17:30, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
 * It seems to me like the self-redirects should be eliminated either by un-linking the links to self-redirects or by replacing the redirect pages with stubs. Using the stubs does duplicate some information, but it also has some advantages:
 * In some cases some additional information is provided in the new stub, such as the distribution range in Acerentomon noseki, occasional photos, IUCN status, etc.
 * Replacing the self-redirects with stubs makes it easier for other editors to make more complete species pages.
 * It many cases, such as this one, the new articles have better references.
 * Bob Webster (talk) 18:28, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
 * A couple of other thoughts: the TOL discussion seemed in favor of this project, and about 1000 of the redirect pages are for Genus rank instead of Species.

BAG assistance needed
 * I've been traveling a bit in the past week, any BAG member can feel free to pick up this, otherwise I'll look at it once I'm back home next week.   Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 18:10, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Headbomb Is there anything I can do to speed the approval process? Bob Webster (talk) 20:30, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Can you provide a bit more information about what sources will be used for the created stubs? During previous runs of Qbugbot, there was some dissatisfaction with the references and further reading entries. Take for example. It references Catalog of Life, ITIS, and World Spider Catalog, although Catalog of Life and ITIS get all of their spider data from World Spider Catalog, and are thus completely redundant. Also, BugGuide is a self-published (or community-published source), similar to Wikipedia, and probably doesn't qualify as a reliable source. Finally, only 1 of the 8 sources listed in the Further reading section have any mention of the topic species whatsoever. They seem to be related to the genus and family, not the species. I'm hoping that some of these issues can be fixed before we do the full run (if they haven't already been fixed). Kaldari (talk) 05:59, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
 * The references in Qbugbot were overhauled before the previous run (Qbugbut3), both in format and inclusion criteria. The result is far fewer references in "Further reading" and somewhat fewer references in "References", as well as more accurate and consistent references.
 * One of the main reasons for Qbugbot3 was to update the references from the previous run. In fact, the page you referred to is a good example. Your link goes the page originally created by Qbugbot in May, 2018. Last September, the page was updated by Qbugbot. The Catalogue of Life reference was removed. Six of the eight "Further reading" references were removed. There is one left that doesn't include specific information on the species, but I think it's worth including for the species of this genus.
 * World Spider Catalog and several "Species File" sites are used as references, when applicable, because they are the most complete and up-to-date authorities in their areas.
 * ITIS is used as a reference if it contains information about the article subject, because the distribution range, common names, synonyms, minor ranks, and other information are often obtained there.
 * GBIF is used as a reference if it contains information about the article subject, because it is the most complete and accurate general taxonomic reference. Even so, it can be a little out of date sometimes and has limited data for animals from some parts of the world.
 * Bugguide is used for a reference if it contains information about the article subject, because it usually has relevant information and photos not included in the Wikipedia article, supports the information in the Wikipedia article, and provides additional references.
 * Encyclopedia of Life is no longer used as a reference by Qbugbot. Catalogue of Life is not normally used as a reference because it rarely includes information not found in ITIS or GBIF.
 * ITIS, Bugguide, and Species File sites include ranks such as Tribe, Subfamily, Superfamily, and Suborder in their taxonomy. GBIF and World Spider Catalog do not.
 * Bugguide is published by Iowa State University. The species pages referred to by Qbugbot are created and maintained only by qualified editors, not by the community at large. GBIF.org now uses Bugguide as a source. There are more than 37,000 pages on en.wikipedia that refer to bugguide.
 * Bob Webster (talk) 16:08, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the detailed reply! I'm glad to hear that most of these issues have been fixed! I'm also glad to hear that you aren't using Encyclopedia of Life and Catalog of Life as sources anymore as they are basically just tertiary sources that aggregate other sources. I'm still a bit skeptical of citing BugGuide (probably because I'm an editor there myself), but it's probably borderline enough to pass. Thanks for your hard work on this. Kaldari (talk) 19:31, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

I'm busier than expected, but I hope to be reviewing this by the end of the week. Any other BAG member can feel free to step in though.   Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 21:52, 4 December 2019 (UTC)

I notice these sort of follow up edits. Could the bot handle those from the get go?   Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 22:11, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I've looked at that in the past. It would be easy enough to do, but I have not been able to find the categories to use. For example, should it be "Animals described in", "Insects described in", "Beetles described in", or "Scarabs described in"? It was discussed once in TOL, and at that time there wasn't a good way to determine the categories. Bob Webster (talk) 23:33, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
 * What about creating a new Category:Arthropods discovered in ... category three, of which the above could be subcategories of?   Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 00:14, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I looked into this. About a year ago (and maybe other times) a bunch of the "described in" categories were removed. Now the bot only needs to handle Animals, Crustaceans, Spiders, Insects, Beetles, Moths, and Butterflies. I've added it to Qbugbot. Bob Webster (talk) 04:55, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Let's do another . Please notify the bug/entomology project and ask to comment on the addition of categories.   Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 01:05, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
 * I found no problems. For new articles that replace redirects, I added a talk page and the categories "Articles created by Qbugbot" and "Insects (or whatever) described in 1926 (or whenever)". There has been no response in the TOL project on the question of the "described in" categories, but the "Animals described in" category includes the ones I mentioned, and no other arthropods.

Hi. I'm revisiting this old BRFA because of a problem I found. An extended trial (10 edits) was approved, and then diffs for 10 article edits were presented above. So far, so good. However, looking at the bot's 6 December 2019 contributions, I see that this trial run actually made 22 edits and the extra dozen edits in addition to the 10 reported above were 3 template edits and 9 talk page edits. 8 of 9 talk edits created new pages as indicated by the bold N before the page title on the user contributions list. Still good. The problem is that ninth talk page edit (actually the first edit, chronologically) which contrary to its edit summary (Created talk page: stub class, low importance) didn't actually create a new page but rather edited an existing redirect to add  below the redirect. What the bot should have done is replace the redirect with WikiProject Insects. Now there's a need to remove the redirect, which I just did. If all the trial edits had been reviewed, instead of just the ten article edits, some time and grief could have been spared. I've found apparently dozens of similar bad talk page edits in the course of reviewing User:Wbm1058/Articles with talk page redirects, a database report I created. The bad news is that the last run of this report still found 2616 redirects which would be a lot to work through manually. The good news is that a significant number of them are from edits by this bot run, so they can hopefully be isolated and knocked off by some semi-automated editing. – wbm1058 (talk) 17:42, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

 * I don't have a whole lot of time to review this at the moment, but I'm going to point out WP:BOTISSUE says contact the botop first, and I don't see that you've contacted User:Edibobb about this.   Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 19:22, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I can fix these using qBugbot. I can get to it sometime in March.
 * Bob Webster (talk) 20:13, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Bob. – wbm1058 (talk) 03:15, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Bob Webster, you're off the hook. I fixed them all using WP:JWB. – wbm1058 (talk) 12:18, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you! Bob Webster (talk) 04:05, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

Perl Programming/Hash variables

A Perl hash is similar to an ordinary array, but instead of using integer indexes, a hash uses "keys" that can take on any scalar value. These are usually strings or numbers.

Syntax: instead of the  operator, associative arrays use the   symbol, and rather than square brackets , as in  , hash elements are referenced using curly brackets  , as in.

Hashes are one of the most powerful and commonly used features in Perl. A typical use would be to build a hash that contains a "dictionary", with each key being a word in the dictionary, and the corresponding values being the definitions of those words.

A hash containing the sounds various household pets make is below

'=>' and ',' are actually interchangeable, so the right side could look exactly like an array. This means that you can assign an array to a hash. In such an assignment, each element with an even index (starting from 0) in the array becomes a key in the hash. The following statements create the same hash as the previous one does But the first style is more preferred because it makes the statement more readable.

To access a hash element, use the curly brackets: will print the following to STDOUT

The cat goes meow.

To add a new sound item to a hash To overwrite an existing element, just reassign it To remove an item from a hash, use delete. Setting the value to undef does not delete the item; using exists on a key that has been set to undef will still return true.

"Associative Arrays"
Originally, a "hash" was called an "associative array", but this term is a bit outdated (people just got sick and tired of using seven syllables). Although it isn't intuitive for newcomers to programming, "hash" is now the preferred term. The name is derived from the computer science term, hashtable.

Printing hash contents
If you know PHP, you may have thought by now of some convenient way to print the contents of your array the way  does...

Counting the number of entries in a hash
To get the size of the hash, simply find the size of the result of the  function, by evaluating it in scalar context:

Hash of Hashes of Hashes
You can define multidimensional hash array variables. An example may look like this:

This code will produce:

1      a       A       FIRST 1      b       C       SECOND 1      c       B       THIRD $VAR1 = { '1' => {                    'c' => { 'B' => 'THIRD' },                    'a' => { 'A' => 'FIRST' },                    'b' => { 'C' => 'SECOND' }                  }          };

Windows 10 Apps no longer recognises Firefox
I use Windows 10 on my work computer. Earlier this week Firefox told me that it can't be automatically updated and I would have to download an up-to-date version myself, so I did that.

Now after I installed the updated version, Firefox runs all OK when launched from the Start menu or from the taskbar, but the Apps control panel on Windows 10 has stopped admitting Firefox exists. It is nowhere to be found in the entire panel. As a result, I am unable to set Firefox as my default browser. I can set Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, Opera or Chrome as my default browser, but I would want to have Firefox.

What has caused this and how can I fix it? J I P | Talk 20:32, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

 * I was able to fix this myself. Googling for the problem revealed that I should uninstall and reinstall the entire Firefox application. I did so, and now Windows Apps recognises Firefox as an app. However, I lost my entire Firefox profile, such as saved passwords. J I P  | Talk 22:07, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I was going to suggest that before I saw the reply. Generally the first step if there's something weird with a program is "check if it's up to date, and if it is uninstall and reinstall". Now, what you wanted to do was make a backup copy of your profile folder beforehand. You can try file recovery software if you really had things you wanted to save. Do a Web search for "firefox profile folder" to find out more.
 * You really should get into the practice of making regular backups if you don't already. Computer hardware can fail at any time, you can always absentmindedly delete things you didn't mean to (I have done this myself!), and there are plenty of other things that can happen. Ideally you want to make periodic backups to external storage and/or remote "cloud storage", to protect against your computer getting struck by lightning or whatever. --<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 05:05, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * This was on my work computer, where all the really important files are the software source code, which is under backed-up version control anyway. On my home computer I make regular backups of my personal files. J I P  | Talk 22:05, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox should never touch the profile folder (which is in AppData\Roaming). I don't know what your Windows 10 did there. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 05:17, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * It may have been a switch from 32-bit to 64-bit and some kind of misunderstanding in the location of the profile folder. Your profile(s) are still there, intact and waiting to be discovered, if you can manage to rectify the location problem. Elizium23 (talk) 05:46, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

Python Scikit-Learn with complex classifications
I have the following problem: I have a number of complex logical riddles (in the 10000s). I have a number of strategies to solve riddles (in principle infinitely many, but in practice around a few hundred to a few thousand). Some riddles are solved by some strategies - some by many, some by all, some by none. I would like to predict which strategies can solve which riddles. Or more precisely: I want to learn an assignment from riddles to strategies so that (if it exists) each riddle is assigned a "winning" strategy. The problem I'm facing is that this is not a simple classification problem - for most riddles there are multiple correct answers. I could, of course, hack my own (e.g.) decision tree algorithm. But I know there are other smart people who have a lot more experience with machine learning than I have. So my question: Is this a problem for which scikit-learn (which I like) has a simple answer to? Or are there some good search terms to look for answers elsewhere? Thanks! --Stephan Schulz (talk) 21:00, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Classification algorithms are not limited to objects that fit neatly into one and only one category. One way to view it is like a map. Imagine a big square map with four corners. Each corner is a category. You place an object on the map. Classification is not a matter of seeing which corner it sits on. It is on the map, not in a corner. Classification is a measure of the distance from each corner. You set a rule that says the shortest distance is the corner the object belongs to. If that makes sense to you, you can expand it to many dimensions. You define fake objects that are the centers of your categories. You measure the distance between an object and each category. The shortest distance defines which category the object belongs to. That can take a long time. So, you don't check every category. You check the most popular ones first and you set a cutoff for the distance. If your object is within a certain distance of a popular category, you place it in that category. It may also be within a certain distance of another category, but you already placed it in the more popular category. The key is in how you measure similarity or distance between objects. You can write your own algorithm. Most are rooted in some form of vector angle or some form of edit distance. It is also popular to throw out all ideas about classification and just use SVD, even though SVD is not a classification method. Once you have a measure of similarity or distance that you like, the rest of the work becomes rather trivial. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 11:15, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * All of that is quite right, and quite clear to me. My problem is that I would like to leverage the existing code base to address my particular problem. The easiest way would e.g. be if the learning algorithm does not work with a class label for training examples, but with a classification function that would return true or false (or 0/1), based on the predicted class. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 12:17, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Jazz harmony

< Jazz

Jazz harmony makes use of intervals and dissonances that are not generally utilised by the 'classical' tradition, except for by modernists such as Stravinsky. Of particular significance is the use of the 'blue notes', so designated because in 'proper' harmony the interval created by them is regarded as unnacceptably dissonant, mistaken, or 'blue'.

The blue notes are largely derived from overlaying 'the blues scale', a simple minor pentatonic scale, across the top of the regular diatonic 7th chords that are generated by harmonising the major or minor scale in four voices.

This practice gives rise to the '7th Sharp Nine Flat Five'-type chords which are so characteristic of the cadence in mainstream jazz. (In fact the 'flattened fifth' is the most recognisable sound in any blues or jazz form of harmony.) Jazz soloists then further accentuate the particular characteristics of these kinds of chords by the use of the 'jazz melodic minor scale' which is derived from the classical melodic minor scale, as well as by the use of the various Greek modes (that is, 7-note diatonic scales commencing from notes other than the root of the major scale) and the Diminished and Whole Tone Scales, to mention a few. (Advanced jazz players have an armory of many subtly different scales and modes to play against any chord.)

Folk, rock and traditional or classical tunes tend to use simple triadic chords (three notes) with the addition of 7th, diminished and augmented intervals where required. Jazz harmonization makes much more use of major and minor seventh chords for even the most basic passages within a song.

Another important characteristic of jazz harmony derives from 'stacking thirds', that is the addition of further notes above the 8th note of the root of the chord, the 8th note being one octave higher than the root. These notes include the 9th, 11th and 13th notes, all of which lend different qualities to the root chord. Depending on the quality of the root chord being played, other intervals may also be added, such as the Sharp 11th.

From the viewpoint of classical theory, many of the chords so formed are in effect 'polychords', that is, notes derived from two different triads played together. Modern jazz has also made extensive use of the interval of the Fourth, which is tonally quite ambiguous and can be used amorphously in a wide range of harmonic contexts (rather like an harmonic form of putty.)

Experienced jazz players also make extensive use of the idea of 'chord substitution' whereby an alternative chord to the one written or implied by the score is played. Depending on the knowledge, skill and 'ear' of the player, there are a practically infinite number of substitutions that may be employed in a tune, giving rise to 'reharmonisation' which will place the melody note of a tune in a completely new harmonic context. Aside from a few standard substitution methods, such as the 'tri-tone substitution', it is difficult to generalise about substitution techniques as a skilled player can draw on a very wide tonal pallette for this purpose.

However despite the enormous range of possibilities inherent in these techniques, it is also important to note that 'it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing', as Duke Ellington put it. While 'free jazz' forms and certain schools of (particularly European) abstract modernism have attempted to extend the range of jazz harmony through an almost infinite spectrum, the 'mainstream' schools emphasise a recognizable, through broad, selection of harmonic, melodic and rythmic possibilities, firmly rooted in, among other things, the blues scale, the Gershwin songs ('I Got Rhythm' in particular), the chord voicings of Bill Evans in the Miles Davis 'Kind of Blue' era, and, above all, from the 'canon' of 'jazz standards', many drawn from the 'Great American Songbook', as interpreted by the great jazz artists of yore, and drawn from the Broadway show rather than from the 'Top 40' of the last 30 years.

Sowbelly Canyon

Sowbelly Canyon is located in the northwestern corner of Nebraska. It is 2.7 mi northeast of Harrison and is part of the Pine Ridge region.

Sowbelly Canyon is a little-known portion of the Pine Ridge. The canyon can be viewed on a scenic driving route north of Harrison; the drive is approximately 11 mi long. A bed and breakfast in the lower bluffs and pines of the canyon was destroyed by a wildfire in July 2006.

Sowbelly Canyon was named when hungry soldiers who had been fleeing Indians were offered sowbelly (bacon) by the rescue party. Sowbelly Creek was named from the same incident.

Wiktionary talk:Translations/Translation of meanings is misleading

 * from Wiktionary talk:Translations Rod (A. Smith) 22:02, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Just as an example, total is translated as amount -> totale and sum -> somma, when instead totale is actually a better translation for total (sum). In the other way round, total(amount) should have been translated totale, ammontare. And I am seeing this in quite a few translations. So, I think that the policy should clarify that the translation should be of the starting word in that particular meaning, not of the words used to define the specific meaning. Maybe also the way meanings are indicated should be changed, as they have apparently misled many translators. Sergio.ballestrero 09:29, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

User:JWSchmidt/Blog/11 May 2007

One of the first things that happened at Wikiversity was that the Main Page was redirected to Main Page. The idea was that a main page such as exists at Wikipedia is really a page about the project, so it should be in the "Wikiversity:" namespace. Recently, User:CQ suggested that new visitors to Wikiversity should go to Main Page, a page in the main namespace. The main namespace is for learning resources.

Namespaces
According to Namespaces, the "Help:" namespace is for, "instructions about how to edit Wikiversity webpages and participate within the Wikiversity community". When I wrote that, I was in the middle of a major effort to create portals for main namespace content and I was not thinking much about the "Help:" namespace. The earlier wording had been copied from Wikipedia and mentioned the fact that help pages for Wikimedia projects had originated in the "Wikipedia:" namespace and at the Meta wiki. I like the idea of having some core help pages at Meta for MediaWiki features that are common to all the sister projects. There should be a way to transclude such pages from Meta to Wikiversity.

Help vs Project
Wikipedia still has "help pages" (linked to from w:Help:Contents) that originated in the "Wikipedia:" namespace before the "Help:" namespace was invented. It is fun to look back at the origin of Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia and compare it to the current page and Contributing to Wikiversity.

The Help:Editing page at Wikipedia goes back to June 2004 when it originated as a redirect to Wikipedia:How to edit a page. There are still pages at Meta, in the Wikipedia "Help:" namespace and in the "Wikipedia:" namespace that provide help for wiki webpage editing.

Which namespace for help at Wikiversity?
Wikiversity started with the advantage of having a "Help:" namespace from the start, so we have less duplication of help page content between the "Help:" namespace and the "Wikiversity:" namespace. Another form of help that has started to become more common are tutorials, wiki pages that have some obvious effort put into them in an attempt to create a user-friendly learning resource for wiki participants. In the case of Wikiversity, a wiki page that is designed as a learning resource can go into the main namespace, providing us with an option not available at Wikipedia.

I've started putting some "help pages" for learning about Wikiversity into the main namespace (Introduction to Wikiversity, Intermediate Wikiversity, Wikiversity (the rest of the story), 8:00 class). My intention is that these be learning projects where Wikiversity participants feel free to edit and explore just as they would at any other main namespace page. I started down this road very early by making pages such as Wiki. Rather than have an article about wiki in the "Wikiversity:" or "Help:" namespace I created a learning project about wiki.

Wiki 101
I originally thought of Wiki 101 as the first learning project that most visitors to Wikiversity would participate in (note: the page was created at the Meta wiki before the Wikiversity website was launched). I keep returning to the idea that new visitors to Wikiversity should be channeled into a learning project where they learn what a wiki is and then they are forced to edit. My belief is that most visitors to Wikiversity never think about hitting the edit button. If we forced them to edit, would more visitors realize that they are invited to edit and that Wikiversity exists as a website where they can learn by editing?

Integrated Project Management Approach (IPMA)
The IPMA method is project delivery solution to the traditional design and construction industry challenges to deliver projects on time, on budget, on target. IPMA is a comprehensive project delivery method that utilizes collaboration, open-book, best-value approach, competitive bidding and an independent project manager/ owner's representative, to deliver project from concept to substantial completion.

Using amended AIA contractual agreements, the owner hire a Contractor with an Initial Guaranteed Maximum Price (IGMP) based on Schematic Design drawings (+narratives). Through this process the IGMP is subsequently updated to a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) using 100% Construction Documentation drawings (+specifications), which has to remain equal or lower value than the IGMP for the same scope.

Project success is reached by setting realistic objectives early, creating an open and collaborative space between the team member, assigning risk to the correct entities who can take on the right amount of risk(s), and by allowing each stakeholders, professionals, team members to perform with a focus on their primary area of expertise: Let the designer design, let the engineers calculate the solution, let the builders build, let the owner be the user and partners to all stake holders.

Simple Harmonic Motion
There doesn't seem to be any mention of pendulums or oscillations of a spring in the wave chapter of the book. To me, this seems like a logical place to put it. Is this something that hasn't been put in yet or is it somewhere else?

Units in LaTeX Math Environment
By default, any text placed in a displaymath environment (or other types of math rendering environments) will be rendered as a variable, and mathematical spacing will be applied. I suggest using the following format:

$$\frac{1000\text{ joules}}{1000\text{ seconds}} = 1\text{W}$$

As opposed to:

$$\frac{1000 joules}{1000 seconds} = 1W$$

The solution is simple - use the \text{} function:

\frac{1000\text{ joules}}{1000\text{ seconds}} = 1\text{W} as opposed to \frac{1000 joules}{1000 seconds} = 1W

Audre Lorde
Audre Lorde (1934-1992) is best known for her work as an, "American poet, essayist, and autobiographer known for her passionate writings on lesbian feminism and racial issues" Her powerful writing included over a dozen publications in the form of poetry and essays, winning multiple national and international awards for her writing, and was one of the primary founders of Kitchen Table: Women of Color Press. She has also been hailed as, " The Black feminist, lesbian, poet, mother, and warrior." Other famous poems and essays written by Lorde include :

 * A Burst Of Light
 * The Black Unicorn
 * Between Ourselves
 * Cables To Rage
 * The Cancer Journals
 * The First Cities
 * From A Land Where Other People Live
 * I Am Your Sister: Black Women Organizing Across Sexualities
 * Lesbian Party: An Anthology

 * Uses Of The Erotic: The Erotic As Power
 * Woman Poet—The East
 * Zami: A New Spelling of My Name

The Erotic as Power
According to Young (2012), the term "Erotic" discussed by Audre Lorde has often been misrepresented and used as a tool to over-sexualize and under value women in a patriarchal society. While this term is often synonymous with pornography, it was meant to provide liberation for women, a freedom that can be found from self reflection and human connection with other woman. The primary mechanism of oppression, is found in the misuse and understanding of systemic power structures that continue to oppress women in their voice and expression of self

Denis Tsygurov

Denis Gennadievich Tsygurov (Денис Геннадьевич Цыгуров; February 26, 1971 – January 10, 2015) was a Russian professional ice hockey player. Tsygurov was drafted in the second round, 38th overall, by the Buffalo Sabres in the 1993 NHL Entry Draft following two seasons with HC Lada Togliatti of the Russian Hockey Super League. Tsygurov came to North America the following year and played in 24 games with the Rochester Americans of the American Hockey League and four games for the Sabres during the 1993–94 season. He was the son of Gennady Tsygurov, who was an ice hockey defenceman and coach in Russia; elder brother Dmitri Tsygurov also played at a high level.

Tsygurov returned to the Sabres during the 1994–95 season for four games before being involved in a blockbuster six-player deal with the Los Angeles Kings. Tsygurov was sent to the Kings along with future Hockey Hall of Famer Grant Fuhr and defenceman Philippe Boucher for defencemen Alexei Zhitnik and Charlie Huddy and goaltender Robb Stauber. Tsygurov went on to play in 39 games for the Kings over the next two seasons, amassing six points.

Following the 1995–96 season, Tsygurov returned to Europe, where except for a brief stint with the Long Beach Ice Dogs in 1997–98, he spent the last five years of his pro career. Tsygurov's European stops included HC Opava in the Czech Extraliga, Kärpät in Finland's SM-liiga, CSK VVS Samara of the lower Russian league Vysshaya Liga, and HC Lada Togliatti and HC Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk of the Russian Hockey Super League.

On January 10, 2015, Tsygurov died at the age of 43.

Nucleus raphe pallidus

The nucleus raphe pallidus receives afferent connections from the periaqueductal gray, the Paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus, central nucleus of the amygdala, lateral hypothalamic area, and parvocellular reticular nucleus.

Also, the nucleus raphe pallidus receives afferents from the medial preoptic area, median preoptic nucleus and lateral paragigantocellular reticular nuclei.

The nucleus raphe pallidus has recently been shown to be involved in the activation of a fever as an immunoreaction. It has been implied that the preoptic area is constantly inhibiting the raphe pallidus, especially the rostral portion, with GABA.

When the preoptic area receives immune signals from the body, the inhibition stops and the rostral portion of the nucleus raphe pallidus excites the intermediolateral cell column, which induces a fever.

The nucleus raphe pallidus has also been known to mediate the tachycardia response, an extremely high heart rate known to be incited by emotional or psychological stress.

Microinjections of a GABA-a antagonist into the nucleus raphe pallidus, induces an increased heart rate.

Conversely, microinjections of muscimol, a GABA-a agonist, inhibit tachycardia in rats under air-stress stimuli.

In both of these cases, GABA is mediating two different sympathetic responses, so clearly the nucleus raphe pallidus is a far more a complex nucleus than previously thought.

Per ESPN (awaiting link for article - pushed from mobile app), NFL has indefinitely suspended Josh Gordon for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 21:28, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

Substance Abuse
Is it just marijuana? Or is it in the category of cocaine, meth, heroin, pain pills? (very addictive drugs). It seems to be marijuana and alcohol - https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/josh-gordon-admits-he-would-get-drunk-or-do-drugs-before-every-browns-game — Preceding unsigned comment added by Asherkobin (talk • contribs) 08:11, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Mohammad Anwar Shopiani

Anwar Shah Shopiani (born Mohammad Anwar Shah; c. 1849 c. 1939), also known by the honorary title Mawlawi Anwar Shah Shopiani, was a Kashmiri Islamic preacher, scholar and poet. He was the founder of Ahl-i Hadith movement in Jammu and Kashmir, and is also credited for establishing the Ahl Al-Hadith Masjid at Zaldagar, the first Ahl-i Hadith mosque of the Kashmir Valley built in 1897. He also served as Imam at Jamiat-e-Ahle Hadith, J&K in Zaldagar, Srinagar.

He wrote Islamic poetry in Persian and Kashmiri languages such as Taleem Sunnat, Basharatul Mumineen, and later publications include Dewan Anwar and Guldasta Anwari, a Kashmiri poetic collection.

Biography
He was born in the Shopian district of Jammu and Kashmir. He received his basic islamic education outside the state, and is believed to be the student of Hafiz Abdul Manan Wazirabadi, a leading Muslim scholar of that time.

Lectures and debates
After completing his education, he returned to the valley and travelled across the multiple regions, including Kishtwar and Turtuk, Nobra and Ladakh to propagate puritan form of Islam.

Criticism and controversy
He was criticised by the religious leaders for propagating his views towards the leaders after claiming "mullas are misleading people". He had several cases filed against him, and was subsequently charged under blasphemy law for insulting the shrines revered by the Kashmiris and the practices of the Sunni Muslims. He was later released.

First period (1857–1890)
Jammu & Kashmir was ruled by Maharaja Ranbir Singh who succeeded his father Maharaja Gulab Singh in 1857 AD. The Wahabi movement began to influence the valley during his rule but he kept a strict vigil on the activities of puritans as mentioned by Sir Walter Lawrence in his famous book, "The Valley of Kashmir". It shows that Maharja was worried about the move of puritans and strongly curbed their activities by jailing the activists from time to time.

Since India was influenced by the mutiny of 1857, the ruler Maharaja Ranbhir Singh tried to save his kingdom from any outer disturbance. During this period Anwar visited Punjab in quest of further studies which was a turning point in the life of Anwar after meeting the Islamic scholars of Bengal including Molana Yaqoub of Dinajpur (now in Bangladesh) who was an admirer of Shah Ismail Shaheed Dehelvi who guided and trained him. After returning from Punjab, Molana Anwar began to preach a puritanical form of Islam, which raised the ire of the locals due to his opposition of reverence at graves and shrines, which he derided as "worship": asthana wa qabar parasti. Several attempts were made by his opponents to kill him, without success. Akhtar Mohiuddin, a literary figure of Kashmir, mentioned him in the book entitled, "Indian Literature" published by Sahitya Academy Delhi as under:

"A significant poet preacher of the period is Molvi Anwar Shah of Shopian. He belonged to the wahabi sect of muslims. His poetry is therefore, devoted to the subjects relating to religion and more especially to his creed. While he versified hadith and muslim code of social conduct he denounced the grave worship and forms of superstition. He exhorted the people to rise above the world of petty gains and fear none but Allah. He wrote better satires against outmoded customs. His target were mullahs who he thought preached superstition instead of true religion"

Second period (1890–1939)
During this period Molana Anwar gained some level of support for his movement, and in 1912 the first Ahle-hadith (Salafi) mosque was built at Zaldagar Srinagar. During this period Molana Anwar visited Qadiyan city of Punjab and met Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiyani, the founder of Ahmadiyya Movement, and opposed his claim of being a Prophet or Maseehe Mauoud. After returning from Qadiyan, Molana Anwar started his mission against the "Qadiyanis" (as the Ahmadiyya were called derogatorily).

Molana Mohammad Sayeed Masudi has acknowledged the services of Molana Mohammad Anwar in the following words: "Had Molana Anwar not been active in Kashmir the southern part of valley would have professed Qadiyani faith. It was his spirit and endevour which blocked the activities of Qadiyanis".

Anwar was several times jailed on the allegations that he had spread hatred among the Muslim sects and preached against the Muslim clergymen who he alleged encourage innovations and superstitions in Islam.
