User:Cormaggio/Issues for Wikiversity

I'm trying here to outline issues that we need to work on as a community. Please feel free to add to this list if you find this page - or add questions and/or suggestions here or on the talk page..

General issues

 * Structuring of resources, ie Namespaces (is our structure easy enough to use or complicated enough to drive people away?)
 * Metadata (what exactly do we need from it?)
 * Pedagogy
 * What is a course?
 * How would we make our pedagogic styles explicit (eg Disclosures and Science teaching materials for creationism)?
 * Research (of course) - how is this to be facilitated and managed?
 * Content - should we have guidelines for what kind of content we would disallow? (eg "Bombmaking 101")
 * "Cheating"
 * Examples of good courses. "The other *massive* thing that I think we need to focus on is how to start being explicit about building a model of learning on Wikiversity, and to be explicit about the types of learning that we are working within on existing pages." — Cormaggio in private correspondence.
 * Student cohorts. I'll articulate the problem, I'm sure there's an answer but at the moment don't know what it is.

 * I've been exploring, looking for "examples of good courses" above. I've already struck two which are organized around the premise of a group of students working together. However, Wikiversity by its nature is open ended. There's no "official" start of school, no conventional way of defining a cohort of students. Would be students are arriving all the time and naturally assuming they can begin any course right now.

 * By their nature very appropriate for some courses, but not others. For instance the Third Reich course which is premised around class discussion of that week's reading assignments which move students progressively through a body of literature. Very conventional organization, but problematic in the Wikiversity environment. (Haven't had feedback from the organizer as yet). Another is the Film School project which is premised on students collectively building a film together. Essentially the same problem.

 * Which highlights the need to provide guidance on crafting a course for Wikiversity. The best way to do that, I think, would be to review what's already on the site, learn from our course providers as to what's working and spread the good word, provide a helping hand up. — morley 21:14, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
 * One may encourage to every course organiser to write half a page of short summary ( < 200 words ) on what her course has achieved, and some record keepers can collect them and keep them together in some wikiversity: page.--Hillgentleman|User talk:hillgentleman 07:05, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Community issues

 * Featured participants - is this a good idea? How might it be beneficial and how might it be harmful?
 * Subcommunities (ie specific learning communities) - how autonomous would they be?
 * Teachers - again, how autonomous are they?

Technical issues
(Note: some of this has been suggested by the KDE developer community - as well as others)
 * Login - do we need some sort of differential login for "teachers" and "students"?
 * I'd say no, at least for now. Designations of who is a "teacher" or "instructor" will likely grow organically by simply noting who has taken responsibility for leading an online course. My intuition suggests watching what develops organically and respond to needs as they appear. In other words, don't anticipate. morley 17:28, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Metadata (again)
 * Structuring of courses - how can this be best developed?
 * support for video and multimedia file formats; are we stuck with just OGG? Could there be a Wikimedia FOundation server for other media formats such as podcasting?

Wanib Sign Language

Wanib Sign Language is a reported sign language, possibly a village sign language, in a Heyo-speaking community of Papua New Guinea. It's spoken just to the west of Mehek Sign Language, but the two languages reflect the very different spoken languages of their communities: Wanib SL follows the SVO word order of Heyo, whereas Mehek SL follows the SOV word order of Mehek.

Ethnobotany

The study of people and their interaction with plants is broadly defined as ethnobotany. The essay further down this page gratefully accepts fact-checking in order to supply the citations, quotations, links and references.

Man's/Wife's best friend (Vegetative Republic)
This essay traces the development of modern Cannabis sativa, starting in the orient millennia ago, as an example of ethnobotany, of great importance to the modern world.

Primate family tree
A chart furnished by Frans de Wals in his groundbreaking Bonobo: the forgotten ape (1996) indicates that the orangutan diverged from the common ancestor (with humans, etc.) about 14 million years ago; the gorilla 10 million; the human vs. chimpanzee-and-bonobo divide occurred 6 million years ago (and chimp and bonobo divided from each other about 3 million years ago).

Primate-predator development
Orangutans, gorillas, bonobos and gibbons are believed to be almost entirely vegetarian, whereas studies by Goodall and others over the last three decades show that chimpanzees may eat as much as 20% of their diet from meat sources, mainly monkeys and termites.

A National Geographic publication, The Great Apes (published about 1996) has a four-picture spread showing (a) an alpha (boss) chimp, nicknamed "Brutus" by the researchers, watching the trees and presumably picking out a vulnerable monkey to be pursued; (b) a group of chimps standing around on the forest floor tearing a captured monkey apart and distributing limbs to different hunting-party members; (c) Brutus comfortably seated holding head and shoulder of a monkey, prior to spending several hours chewing it (for lack of cookstove technology to soften the meat), and (d) a female chimp with a piece of monkey, which according to the text had been given her by Brutus-- for Chimpgod knows what services-- thus clarifying the origin of "money" (i.e. the key is the "k" in "monkey").

Human (cooked-meat) predatorism
It is said that humans first began domesticating fire in Africa 1.8 million years ago in order to cook-- and preserve a few days longer-- the meat of large animal carcasses hunted down by groups of men and possibly dogs. (Since which time, men are cooked-meat animals while chimps are raw-meat animals; similarly dogs are cooked-meat animals whereas wolves are raw-meat animals.) This permitted larger population groups to consume large meat animals hurriedly thus reducing waste; through cooking, a carcass could be fully consumed before spoilage occurred.

As this technology spread around the world, women went out woodgathering for the cooking fires, and a tree ring, or line beyond which there still was some wood to gather, would begin receding from each human habitation. Eventually each clan or village would exhaust the cooking fuel in its immediate neighborhood and have to move on to new quarters (slash and burn). In this way desertification began on a hitherto unknown scale, speeding up further about ten thousand years ago with the development of animal husbandry, or the institutional enslavement of captive herds of meat animals.

Large animal extinction and birth of animal husbandry
Just recently, in December 2008, news arrived of studies showing that a large comet or asteroid struck the earth, possibly in North America near the Great Lakes, about 13,000 years ago as attested by the finding of huge numbers of nanodiamonds in the corresponding geological layer. Missing from higher layers are any remainders of mastodons, woolly mammoths, etc. Perhaps it can be surmised that into the resulting vacant environmental niche throughout the northern hemisphere somewhat smaller mammals, such as the ancestor of today's oxen or beefcattle, expanded. This enabled northern human populations to expand because these animals were somewhat easier to catch, slaughter, butcher etc.

By about 10,000 years ago a fateful change had occurred, whereby instead of hunting down animals on an occasional basis (such as the buffalo until recently in North America), humans, especially in Eur-Asia, learned to lure and grain-feed herbivores, leading to capture and enclosure and a corresponding interest in raising feed grains for the resulting proprietary herds, i.e. the famous and beloved agricultural revolution. This greatly accelerated the slash-and-burn process, converting forest to grasslands to feed the beefcattle, and leading to other developments such as group competition for resources to feed expanding human and domestic animal populations with a corresponding arms race and tendency toward a warlord or despotic social system.

Cannabis and the cooking revolution
Now the women had more work to do than ever, cooking not only meat for bigger families and villages but also the feed grains for which humans too had acquired a taste. Species such as wheat evolved quickly under dietary use and became the "staff of life".

In due order it was discovered that a few woody-stem plant species, particularly the annual herb Cannabis, were able to produce biomass fast enough to keep up with the cookstove depredations, and when women dragged stalks of cannabis to the house, shaking seeds loose along the way, "plantations" of cannabis ("hampsteads" etc.) grew up, especially first in southern Asia, providing stove fuel and other useful products contributing to the growth of immense human populations such as those in China and India. (Cold-climate dwellers found the cannabis stalks useful in housing construction, especially "thatchers" who learned to use them for roofing.)

Genetic convergence of human and cannabis species
As a bonus, over the course of time cannabis growing on human-waste dungpiles developed into strains which were sensitive-- and responsive-- to animal hormone residues in the human fertilizer. In this way the species "learned" to produce answering-hormones which could attach to what are known today as "cannabinoid receptors" in the human brain, and when stalks and leaves containing these substances were burned in the family stove, and the smoke (containing cannibinoid vapors) inhaled by Mom and the kids, profound religiobotanic concepts were protomeditated resulting in today's beautifully bound canon (i.e. cannabin) of Holy Scriptures full of admonitions like "In the sweat of thy brow thou shalt eat bread" (i.e. it gets hot and smoky in Mom's kitchen).

Within the lifespan of humans living today, a latter-day technology grew up breeding strains of (vegetable) Cannabis, alias Dagga, with the desired characteristic of producing large amounts of the above cited response-hormones, just as humans have also bred strains of (animal) Canis, alias Dog-- to the point that today you can get a dog any shape, color and size from two pounds to 300.Treedesigner 02:14, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Life after politics: chief of staff resignation claim
This section states "In 2017, she left her position as Chief of Staff due to disagreements over Metiria Turei's public admission to historical benefit and electoral fraud which eventually caused a loss of support for the party and led to Turei's resignation."

The reference given only states that she left her position as Chief of Staff, and nothing more- the linked article makes no claim as to *why* Morris left that role. Imnofox (talk) 10:28, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Harvard
The main contributor to this article asserts Mansouri attained a degree from Harvard and has added two links as refs to that effect. However, neither link mentions Mansouri at all. Adding details like attending one of the most prestigious universities without citation is an example of puffery and aggrandizing the subject of the article, which is a concern for Biographies of Living Persons (BLPs).

Film Director
The main contributor to the article has insisted on including, as a whole section, a non-notable film. The film description is poorly written and consists almost entirely of weasel words, "A Luxurious vision of Love wrapped in Mystery," and then doubles-down on some egregious descriptions of the accolades the film supposedly won -- from non-notable entities, wikilinking the word award for good measure. This is textbook undue weight, the subject is not known as a film director and the film is not notable. If a good source can be found, this could be a sentence in her career section. The Costume Designer's Guild magazine is an industry magazine and has few details about the film or the awards and is probably not a reliable source. The other ref is a Facebook post which just links to a YouTube video. The description from the YT video is the exact same verbiage used here on Wikipedia and was uploaded by YT user "Arefeh Fashion", so either it is a copyright violation or the YT user Arefeh Fashion and WP user Fashionnews2012 are the same person, marking this as a case of COI/NPOV.

2019–20 Gamma Ethniki

The 2019–20 Gamma Ethniki was the 37th season since the official establishment of the championship in 1983, but the 1st season as the fourth tier of the Greek Football. It will start on 22 September 2019. After the finish of the eight groups, the first team of each group will qualify for a playoff round of two groups, to determine which two teams will be promoted to Football League.

106 teams are divided into eight groups according to geographical criteria.

Only for Group 8 after the end of the regular season will be held play-off and play-out games. The top four teams will participate in the play-off round and the first team will be the champion of the group and will be qualifying to 2019–20 Gamma Ethniki play-offs second group. The last five teams will participate in play-out games and the last will be relegated.

Iraklis, Aiginiakos, Sparta, Alexandros Kilkis, Orestis Orestiada, Megas Alexandros Iasmos, and AOK Zakynthos withdrew from the league before the group draw.

Effects of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic
On 29 April 2020 the HFF announced their decision to end the championship of Gamma Ethniki.
 * The ranking on 8 March 2020 is the final ranking and every first team of each group will be champions.
 * There will be future decision about the promotion/relegation.
 * The promotion play-offs among the group champions will not be held.

Talk:Leopold I of Belgium/Archives/2020/May

Eugène de Beauharnais
According to the article about Eugène de Beauharnais, he died in 1824. This article mentions him being a candidate for Belgian throne in 1829 or 1830. Did they consider a dead person to be a monarch or is there some error in the source interpretation? stjn[ru] 16:01, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Possibly a confusion between Eugène and his son Auguste, Duke of Leuchtenberg. Per the article on Auguste: "On 4 February 1831 Leuchtenberg was one of three candidates for the throne of the newly independent Belgium, his Napoleonic connections allaying the concerns of some of the Great Powers worried that the breakaway Roman Catholic realm might otherwise ally itself too closely with the likewise Catholic and revolutionary "bourgeois monarchy" of Orléans France. But in the election by the Belgian National Congress, Auguste came in second after the younger son of the King of the French, Prince Louis, Duke of Nemours, though ahead of the Habsburg candidate, Archduke Charles, Duke of Teschen. In the event, none of these men attained the Belgian throne, which went to Britain's candidate, Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg." Dimadick (talk) 22:07, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

 * I think this might be my mistake. It is clearly Auguste whose name features in the debate. —Brigade Piron (talk) 19:15, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Hazel Green High School

Wow. What a terrible article! Organization! We need organization! And grammar! We need grammar (and so do I!)! -DTK 21:17, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Please read Sign your posts on talk pages --Brat32 05:38, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Wiki feel free to improve the article. --Brat32 05:40, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to pare this article down. There's too much information, the style's weird, and it's vanity. Thathollygirl 13:41, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

I know I castrated this article, but I figured it's best to start over with citations and such. This article would be fine if we worked on it a bit. Thathollygirl 14:02, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Hopefully I will get to the history section soon and update more. (Note to everyone, the "Established" date is the date of the new building which was built in 1994.) I will be getting to the origin of the Hazel Green school (dates back to 1914 I think) hopefully in the next few days. This research takes a lot of searching and reading so please be patient. Also, if someone could get a picture and post it in the school box that would be great! Thanks --HGHSTROJAN 18:01, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Do not delete, help
Kolle and Holly, I would appreciate if you would help the HGHS page and not hurt it. If the format is off, correct it how you feel it should be. Please do not just delete it. I would appreciate any HELP you can offer.

Hey--sorry to seem insulting. I didn't mean to. The thing is, what was on the page was not appropriate Wiki content. What does need to be there are general statistics--number of students, perhaps racial/economic breakdown (that stuff's in the school report card if anyone's got one), principal's name (but probably leave out vice principals and such, that's not a vital thing), and that sort of thing. When you get into school rules and organizations and such, it gets way out of the focus that Wiki is supposed to have. Those sorts of things can easily be found on the website, which is linked. Also, it's a Wiki rule that everyone sign their posts with four tildes so we can get the timestamp and all.Thathollygirl 21:27, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

"what was on the page was not appropriate Wiki content...When you get into school rules and organizations and such, it gets way out of the focus that Wiki is supposed to have." Incorrect. In the article WikiProject Schools, under the heading "structure," it states "The key to writing a good school article is to explain why the school is unique. What makes it different from every other school? Does it have special programs?" In a subtopic of "structure" it lists, "Extracurricular activities — Mention the sports team(s) of the school and what is notable about them. Here is also a good place to mention specific traditions of school, like students' union/student council activities, a student newspaper, clubs, regular activities, etc." If you require further proof, go to Charter School of Wilmington, as this is an ideal article about a high school and it too has extra curricular activities.

To reply to previous post quoted: "general statistics--number of students...principal's name..." All of this information was in the HGHS article until Kolle deleted them. "...leave out vice principals..." Why? (nothing against putting them in) Please do not delete information without proper reason to do so. Organization, is NOT a reason to delete useful information. Help the page please do not hurt it.

Oh, thanks for reminding me about signatures and such, as I was in error in not posting one. HGHSTROJAN 17:55, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

3rd party sources
Would anyone like to try and find some additional information to use as sources? The original sources used were materials provided by the high school and a historical publication of Hazel Green. Let me know if you come up with anything. HGHSTROJAN (talk) 11:02, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

User:Bollystolly

I'm here as a wikignome. I took the moniker from the British tv series Absolutely Fabulous - Patsy Stone was infamous for her alcohol abuse and her favourite pick-me-up of Bollinger champagne and Stolichnaya vodka or 'bollystolly' as Patsy would call it. I could never afford Bollinger, but vodka was a great favourite until the doctor told me to quit.

I grew up on the southern edge of greater London and just managed to get a third-class science degree from City University London. I became fed up with England under the Wilson then Heath governments, especially with the enforced three-day weeks Heath oversaw. London was quite unpleasant due to the IRA's bombings, and unions caused me some difficulties. So my wife and I sold up, bought a Land Rover, and set off with the intention of driving to Cape Town and shipping to Australia. We got as far as Johannesburg, where I found a job as science writer with the National Institute for Metallurgy now Mintek. Thanks to their editors, I became fairly passionate about speling and gramer.

Then I spent many years as a freelance writer specialising in direct mail before opening a B&B on Westbrook Beach, south of Ballito.

Naturally, I voted yes in the 1992 referendum but became so disillusioned with the ANC mob that I chose to get out. Worth noting perhaps that, under the ANCpf, the SA currency plummeted from better than four to the US dollar in 1995 to almost sixteen in 2016. In short, I couldn't afford to go back to England so ended up here in the Hautes-Pyrenees department of France, north of Tarbes.

Having nothing better to do with my time when the weather's bad, I decided to work on wikipedia pages, many of which need a touch of blue pencil. You'll see below a very few of the things that irritate.

I also had a stab at starting a new page - Jules Browde - who died at the end of May 2016. He was a friend of Nelson Mandela's (and acted for him) as well as a founder member of Lawyers for Human Rights. Definitely a person deserving to be remembered by Wikipedia. When I'm not at my desk, you might find me out and about with my camera photographing butterflies or churches. I have a good number of pics on Flickr and Panoramio for Google Earth. The pics on this page are of the Golden Chapel of Pouey-Laün and the large chequered skipper.

Sovereign states I've visited (26; bold shows those in which I have had fixed addresses) roughly in chronological order:

🏴 England—🏴 Wales—🇮🇪 Ireland—🏴 Scotland—🇫🇷 France

🇨🇭 Switzerland—🇬🇮 Gibraltar—🇪🇸 Spain—🇲🇦 Morocco—🇩🇿 Algeria—🇳🇪 Niger

🇳🇬 Nigeria—🇨🇲 Cameroon—🇬🇦 Gabon (my favourite)— São Tomé and Príncipe

🇿🇼 Zimbabwe—🇧🇼 Botswana—🇿🇦 South Africa— Holland—🇲🇿 Mozambique—

🇳🇦 Namibia—🇸🇿 Swaziland—🇱🇸 Lesotho— Bophuthatswana

🇵🇹 Portugal—🇬🇼 Guinea-Bissau

My most memorable border crossing was, with a customer, from Lesotho to South Africa deep underground through part of the Lesotho Highlands Water Project, which boosts the flow of fresh water into the Vaal river. The Vaal is the main source of water for the Pretoria-Witwatersrand-Vereeniging industrial hub. My customer was providing the cement for the steam-cured concrete linings for the tunnels.

Misdirection
A syntactical error that seems to me to appear with increasing frequency is often flagged by a participle at the start of a sentence.

An example:

Having studied at Oxford as an undergraduate and Harvard University for his PhD, Bayley worked at MIT, Columbia University, and Texas A&M University. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagan_Bayley)

By extension, are we to assume that everybody who studied at Oxford as an undergrad and then gained a Harvard doctorate necessarily went on to work at MIT etc?

Clearly not, yet that is what the construction indicates. The relationship between the two ideas has been given a causal rather than temporal component.

The dangling participle need not be expressed:

Born in Cape Town to Gershon and Gaby Shapiro, Jonathan studied architecture at the University of Cape Town ... (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Shapiro) - the 'Having been (born)' being understood.

The error is easily corrected. For instance, 'After studying at Oxford as an undergraduate and Harvard University for his PhD, Baylley worked at MIT, Columbia University, and Texas A&M University.

Because there is no clear link between parentage and university study, the second example is better split into the two separate ideas:

Jonathan was born in Cape Town to Gershon and Gaby Shapiro. He studied architecture at the University of Cape Town.

Is the error attributable to laziness? Is the author perhaps more interested in the flow of words rather than clarity?

Inversion
The topic of inverted word order is lengthy, but there is one form of it that grates ... as do many errors.

There it is ... as do many errors is an inversion of the correct order. The phrase should read as many errors do, with the verb following the subject.

Where the clause introduced by as is wordy, the author might deliberately use inversion:

However, we are obliged to undertake certain closures and redundancies, as would be any enterprise that has to cater in a time of recession for a clientele at once very specialised and notoriously volatile.

If the verb would be were moved right to the end, the sentence would hardly be elegant. But that's not necessary. The verb does not have to follow the subject in its entirety. We can use it after enterprise without losing track of how the enterprise might be parallelled by others:

However, we are obliged to undertake certain closures and redundancies, as any enterprise would be that has to cater in a time of recession for a clientele at once very specialised and notoriously volatile.

But where somebody writes I dislike word inversion, as does any reader, there is no excuse at all.

One of the only
Have you noticed the phrase one of the only now in use by speakers and writers? If not, keep an ear or eye open and you'll become aware that it's used quite a lot. Increasingly, too. And if you think about it, the phrase is nonsensical. One of two makes perfect sense, and so do one of several, one of a thousand, one of many, and so on. If something is among very few others, it might be described as almost the only. But one of the only provides no idea whatsoever of proportion or ratio, since only in this construction could describer ten, a hundred, a million, or any other number.

For me, the phrase is one of many signs that people speak, and write, without thinking about the meaning of the words they're using.

However, some sources claim it's acceptable. Pass me the sick bag.

Comparatively higher (or lower)
In a technical report sent to me for editing were the terms comparatively higher and comparatively lower. I pencilled the words for the author's attention and asked why he had included the word comparatively, as higher and lower were already comparatives and needed no such qualification. He defended his position by saying that in his field the phrase had a special meaning that the unqualified adjectives failed to communicate. He could not explain further.

Being an adviser, I could do no more than recommend. I will never know whether he listened to me. He and other engineers seem to struggle to write what they mean and tend to use redundant words, complicated structures, and very long sentences. Editing their work can take time.

No unexpected problems are foreseen
This delightfully brain-twisting claim concluded a section towards the end of a technical report I edited. In a way, I hope the author ignored my recommendation and left his charming phrase intact. (My recommendation eludes me now; the brain twister never will.)

After the fact
A ewe thought to have been a contender for the title of world's oldest sheep has died after falling off a cliff.

A blackface ewe, nicknamed Methuselina, fell off a cliff on Lewis in the Western Isles. An ear tag showed she was 25 years and 11 months old, which made her the oldest sheep in the world and the story newsworthy enough for the BBC. So far so good. But the report fails to meet the who, what, where, when, why, and how demand of good reporting. We know who, what, where, and when (well, the report appeared on 28 February 2012), but we don't know why or how Methuselina died.

The BBC tells us she fell off a cliff. And after falling of a cliff, Methuselina died. Well, did she die of her injuries, of shock, a heart attack, old age? And for how long did she survive after the fall? Not important, the BBC deems.

Why couldn't the BBC simply tell us the animal died in a fall from a cliff? What's with this after the BBC (and some other sources) insist on? ''At least 15 people have died after a 6.7 magnitude quake struck the central Philippines ... A 38-year-old woman has died after her car crashed into a wall in Edinburgh on Monday evening. ... Man killed after car struck tree ... Man killed after being hit by car''. Each is a headline from www.bbc.co.uk/news.

One of the worst must be At least 300 prisoners have been killed after a massive fire swept through a jail in Honduras.

A fire sweeps through a jail in Honduras, after which 300 prisoners are killed. By whom? Armed guards trying to stop them from escaping? We'll never know, if we rely on the BBC.

Each of these BBC reports presents a mystery ... an accident followed by a killing. An even bigger mystery: why this strange way to report accidental death?

Template:Fluctuation formatter/doc

Usage
Takes a value and displays an increase, decrease, or steady symbol with the value based (by default) on whether it is positive, negative, or zero. The type of value can be specified using the second parameter as "maximize", "minimize", or "neutral". Can be called using the shortcut Fluc. It's meant to be used to show a fluctuation snapshot, where the provided value indicates a move up (positive) or down (negative), or possibly held steady (zero = no change) in relationship to some earlier measurement.

For example, a positive  with a   of "maximize" (the default) will show the green upward arrow of increase, as that type assumes the goal is for the value to be maximized. Likewise, a negative  with a   of "maximize" produces the red downward arrow of decrease.

Inversely, a positive  with a   of "minimize" will show the red downward arrow of decrease, as that type assumes the goal is for the value to be minimized, but as a positive number, it's gone the wrong direction. Likewise, a negative  with a   of "minimize" produces the green upward arrow of increase, since a minimized value is sought and the value has moved in that direction.

Examples

 * or produces  +47
 * or produces  -47
 * produces +47
 * produces -47
 * produces +47
 * produces -47
 * produces no change
 * produces -47
 * produces no change
 * produces $47 million
 * produces -1000 (note: still includes the non-breaking space)

Talk:Music of Denver

This Page is Embarrassing
I am no wiki guru or that knowledgeable about the history of music in Denver, but in my 20 years living here, playing music here, and enjoying music here not much in this article makes much sense. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 21:47, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

So many better bands from here. Offspring420 (talk) 14:52, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Are these Denver bands?
Are Soft Machine and Vanilla Fudge really associated with Denver? First I've heard of it; some supporting evidence might be in order. A quick Google doesn't come up with much. GeoGreg 05:34, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Aslo Winger's wiki pages claims they are from New York. I suspect there are more on that list, but so many have no links or wiki's it is hard for one to know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 22:22, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

They are. In The Whale and The Vanilla Milkshakes both have international press. Offspring420 (talk) 14:41, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Famous/Southern Gothic/Americana Sections
Deleted/added several bands to "Famous" section based on their following/influence. I tried to be as objective as possible here as I felt this page was rife with inaccurate/biased info. Also added Southern Gothic section as this was a very important part of Denver's musical history. Added Americana section as this seems to be a strong movement currently operating in Denver. This is my first time editing, so I am completely open to criticism. I would love to see a more professional and thorough reworking or the "Punk" section; I have very limited knowledge in this area. Thanks! Jtcroft 05:59, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

JEFF FINLIN Please put your name in alphabetical order in the "Famous" section, not on top.

You're anecdote about the 5280 reporter having to "track you down" because you were "thought" to be British really stretches the reality of the situation, bordering on complete untruth, according to the 5280 article itself. I'm strongly of the opinion that this should be removed from the Facts and Trivia section entirely. No matter how it's rewritten, a reporter assuming you're British before he finds out you live in Fort Collins is not notable.Jtcroft 20:27, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Nothing on jazz/classical
"it still manages to have a very active popular, jazz, and classical music scene, which has nurtured many artists and genres to regional, national, and even international attention."

While the article mentions plenty about punk, jam, stoner, and goth, there's nothing significant about jazz, and nothing at all in the article about classical. Could someone with some knowledge about those scenes add sections on them? --Charibdis 04:41, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

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

"During the thirties jazz boom, such legendary vocalists as Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis and others resided."

There isn't any source listed for these facts. If someone can find something, please contribute the source.Parkerjl 02:16, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Famous Music Venues?
This list includes the Denver Center for the Performing Arts and the Ellie Caulkins Opera House. Since the Opera house is part of the DCPA isn't this a bit redundant? Either all the venues within the DCPA need to be listed (Boettcher Concert Hall, et al.) or Ellie Caulkins removed. Parkerjl 02:30, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

"Famous" lists are a joke
The "Famous" lists are out of control. Most of the "Famous Denver bands and artists" are so famous that they don't have wiki articles. Some of the "Famous" music venues are so famous that their street location is listed next to their name, so that we can find them; that's really famous. Plazak (talk) 13:02, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
 * As it stands, the list of "Famous" music venues is a hodgepodge of well-known venues with a random number of more obscure clubs. This is not the phone book. Is there any good reason not to limit this list to places with Wikipedia articles? Plazak (talk) 15:25, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Pathetic.
As a lifelong musician in the Denver area, this article tells nothing of the history. Denver's music scene goes back to the cowtown days - bawdy houses, burlesque, and saloons. During the 30's big band music flourished at places such as Elitch Gardens and Mammoth Gardens, and Denver was a lively home to much country swing, Americana and rockabilly music throughout the 40's & early 50's, as well as an important tour stop for the Doo-Wop bands of the 50's. Denver had a thriving beat community and was home to many important poets and folk artists, and in the early 60's hosted several important folk venues. Denver's 'Battle of The Bands', KIMN Radio, and the many 3.2 beer halls germinated and supported a plethora of local artists. Barry Fey and Feyline grew out of The Family Dog, and ultimately into noteworthy events such as The Denver International Pop Festival. Virtually nothing is mentioned of the importance of country music, the effects of the changes in drinking laws, Red Rocks, the proliferation of outdoor festivals, or many of the other factors which have colored and influenced the musical culture of the area... If you're going to bother to publish an article, at least try to have a grasp of the subject, beyond a narrow little slice of time and genre.

Dragvoll

Dragvoll is a neighborhood in the city of Trondheim in Trøndelag county, Norway. The neighborhood is located in the borough of Lerkendal. The area hosts the campus for the faculties of social sciences and humanities of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Until the 1996 creation of NTNU, it was the social sciences and humanities campus of the Norwegian College of General Sciences.

Farm
The site was traditionally a farm. The historic name of Dragvoll has varied, variously being written Draghaull (1519), Dragouldt (1570), Drauold (1621), Dragwoll (1667) and Dragvoll (1723). The first part is derived from the site being located on a creek, Stokkbekken, with the latter being a voll. The earliest records of the farm have it registered with the king owning half and the pastor of Our Lady's Church with the other half. The first known farmer was Joon Draguol and his wife, Ingeborg, in 1645. The farm was privatized between 1661 and 1683. Kaspar Widthagen's odelsrett was registered in 1683. By 1701 it had passed to Wilhelm Sebastian With, who owned but did not run the farm, as he was working as a pastor in Trondheim.

The farm continued to be owned by non-farmers. Melcher Brødicher bought the farm in 1727 and it was subsequently owned by Anche Bennickmand, Fredrich Fabich, Charles Omilus Lutzow, Reimer Ulfers, Morten Simonsen Hoff, who in 1774 sold it to Fredrik Christian von Krabbe, who two years later sold it to Johanna Nikolava Ulfers. She kept it until it was transferred to Reiner Ulfers. It then was transferred to M. Spechman in 1839, Engelbright Thun in 1850, Gustav Olsen in 1870, Jacob Høe in 1876 and Arnt Clemmetsen Grendahl in 1881. At the time of the last transaction most of the crofts had been split off and the farm retained 35 ha of fields plus forest and meadows.

The ultimate farmhouse was built around 1800 as a trønderlån. It had received a renovation, with a new interior, but with a faithful reproduction of the exterior. The barn is traditionally dated to 1848, although this may not be accurate. Its foundation may date as far back as the Middle Ages. The stable dates from 1938. The farm was bought by the state for use for the university in 1964. In 1981 a group of youth broke into the barn and lit a bondfire. The fire spread to the building and it burned down. A week later the medieval foundations were demolished, in violation with their restriction as being preserved.

University
During the 1960s Norway experienced a period with massive expansion in several areas, including higher education. One of these processes was the establishment of a university in Trondheim. The Ministry of Education and Research contacted the County Governor of Sør-Trøndelag to find a suitable site for a campus. The main concern at the time was to create room for future freedom of expansion. The Norwegian Institute of Technology was at the time the largest educational institution in Trondheim and was estimating that it would need a further 100 ha of space to expand at Gløshaugen in the following decade.

Four main criteria were used to determine the location: a best possible location in relation, especially related to natural surroundings, sufficient land for future expansion, flexible land for campus design, and sufficient land for auxiliary installations, such as parks, sports venues, student housing etcetera. Dragvoll met these criteria. It also allowed the endowed land to be used for agriculture until it was needed for future expansions. The plans and approval of a university were passed by the Parliament of Norway in 1968.

Web Design/Group Activities/Paired Bio Pages

The whole web design class has been approached by a local newspaper and asked if we could put together a bunch of (brief) biographical pages about us - the local web design students at the local college.

The purpose of each biographical page is to enable readers to see a little into the life of a student, their goals and aspirations, likes, world-views, hobbies or views on current events. They've asked also if an aspect of each page-design could reflect something of the persons character (such as the choice of colours, font or theme graphics).

The newspaper has asked for the pages to be in either a word-processor format or HTML.

Outline of Activity
In this group activity you'll get the chance to:
 * interview another participant in the class - finding about their interests and passions - as well as,
 * demonstrate any background skills in design, communication or technology that you've picked up in school or work (none assumed!)
 * learn from each other!

Duration (suggestion only):
 * Planning client interview - 10 mins
 * Conduct interview (and possibly take photo of your client or for background image of your page) - 30 mins
 * Report back results of interviews to the group - 10 mins
 * Create Bio page - 60 mins (or longer, depending on your page!)
 * Discuss final bio pages (both from designer and clients perspective) together with whole group.

Planning your client interview
As well as the normal details such as names, interests, motivations etc., you may want to run with a theme or metaphor for your client's bio page and interview. Be as creative as you feel comfortable, but remember that the person you're interviewing is your client - you are creating the page to reflect their personality, not your own!

There's some interesting personal interview-type questions on Everything you ever wanted to know about each other.

Relationship to Qualifications
If you already have substantial HTML/CSS skills and knowledge, you may be able to use this activity to demonstrate your skills for assessment purposes. Talk to your facilitator for more information.

Talk:David J. Thouless

Bethe being Ph.D advisor
This says "He was a Ph.D. student of Hans Bethe". Is that working sufficient to support the claim that Bethe was his doctoral advisor? -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 00:13, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

 * Also this Seattle Times story and Thouless himself say his Ph.D was "under Hans Bethe". But I don't know if that working means that Bethe was head of the research group he was in, or if it actually means Bethe was his advisor. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 00:22, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

Citizenship
What documentary evidence is there for Thouless being an American citizen? <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 18:18, 8 October 2016 (UTC)

only for kids
You can imagine quantum field theory as a Connect Four board game, but its checkers aren't discs but instead rods. There is no grid, the rods form the grid, but always many of them aren't locked well among each other, and the scaffolding they create changes shape continuously to achieve better stability, but that fundamentally cannot happen, because always some rod doesn't have the exact length (non invariant interactions destroy the aligned topological modularity, and the system shifts towards a less unstable position). During that process some rods break, and the fragments grow to a normal rod size, so the Universe expands. These rods, create houses, towns, planets, planetary systems, galaxies, galactic clusters etc. (this is a metaphor, I speak about field organization: the strong interaction, the weak interaction, the electromagnetic interaction, the QFD accumulative phenomenon of a. gravity, b. dark matter, and also the universal quantum decoherence we call dark energy) thus the rods, organize themselves in a different way at each critical scale. The afar expansion of our Universe, will not allow these rules be maintained, because not enough rods will exist at each critical scale of organization, thus the very scarce diffused rods who will remain, will explode as Big Bang to maintain alive the whole picture of the QFT flowing topological harmony.
 * The "ultimate universal phase transition" = "Big Bang" theory. Sounds great but we need more types. No homogeneity problem, this is a scalar - adiabatic phase transition.

Goodspeed Publishing

Goodspeed Publishing was established by Westin Arthur Goodspeed in the late 19th century and was based in Nashville, Tennessee, St Louis, Missouri and Chicago, Illinois. By the early 1880s Goodspeed had success with a series of state and regional histories in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and other northern states, and went on to repeat that success in other areas of the U.S.

The publications were primarily divided into sections for each county they studied, and included descriptions of each area's geography, history, government, and religious institutions. Each edition included biographies of prominent citizens. Local industries, businesses, and agriculture were also described, providing a glimpse of late 19th century life in places often ignored by other histories. Goodspeed's attempt to include of Native American history in many of these volumes was unusual at that time.

While Goodspeed publications have frequently been cited by American historians and genealogists because they contain economic data and personal biographies of both well-known figures and those who played less famous but significant roles in their communities and states, readers should note that the editor's Preface typically makes this statement: "The publishers disclaim responsibility for the substance of the matter contained in the Biographical Appendix, as the material was wholly furnished by the subject of the sketches."

Scheduled monuments in Staffordshire

This is a list of scheduled monuments in Staffordshire, a county in England.

In the United Kingdom, a scheduled monument is a "nationally important" archaeological site or historic building that has been given protection against unauthorised change by being placed on a list (or "schedule") by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport; English Heritage takes the leading role in identifying such sites. Scheduled monuments are defined in the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 and the National Heritage Act 1983. There are about 20,000 scheduled monument entries on the list, which is maintained by English Heritage; more than one site can be included in a single entry.

While a scheduled monument can also be recognised as a listed building, English Heritage considers listed building status as a better way of protecting buildings than scheduled monument status. If a monument is considered by English Heritage to "no longer merit scheduling" it can be de-scheduled.

Staffordshire has over 250 scheduled monuments including barrow burial mounds, Roman camps, castles and medieval moated sites.

Internet Technologies/Email spam

Email spam (or just "Spam") is unsolicited email, similar to conventional "junk mail", but often on a larger scale.

Spam is estimated to have cost U.S. organizations over $10 billion (in lost productivity) in 2003.

Various software products are available to block or filter spam. Even lawmakers are stepping up to fight spam- in the United States the Can-Spam Act of 2003 was passed into law.

"Spammers" - people or organizations responsible for sending out email spam - use large lists of email addresses that are collected in a number of ways. One of these means is by using computer programs that search websites for email addresses. An email address that appears on a website is therefore more likely to get spammed, other things being equal. There are various ways of preventing your email being harvested in this way. One is to include it as an image rather than a link. This is not ideal, though, because it means firstly that people will have to type the address themselves, and secondly, it makes the address inaccessible to blind people, or people who browse without images. An alternative, better method, is to use a small piece of 'JavaScript' to insert the email address into the page when it is displayed, keeping it out of the html which an email-collecting spam program might look at. One final method is to create a contact form to display on your website. The website user would fill out the form which when submitted forwards the message to you without displaying your email address. This final method has one drawback in that it circumvents the user's email system and does not provide the user with a record of the email that they sent.

I have also seen many people try the format of<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or whatever. The person who has a genuine interest in emailing you will remove the REMOVETHIS part of the eddress before sending, but programmes that gather email addresses en-masse will use it as-is - thus, you do not receive spam. One must be fairly inventive to make this effective; the instance given would be algorithmically handled by most site-scraping email bots.

In addition, there is a new anti-spam feature now available. Named the "Challenge/Response System", this either sends a link, or a word-verification page to a user, the first time they e-mail you. The user must either click the link or enter the word to verify they are not a spamming program. After this, you get the e-mail and they're added to your allow list.

A study, by Brockmann & Company IT consultants showed that challenge-response proved to be superior to appliances, hosted spam filters and commercial filters.Brockmann surveyed more than 500 businesses, with 40% of the respondents having IT responsibilities. The independently funded study resulted in the creation of a spam index to measure how satisfied workers were with their spam technologies.

Despite being less sophisticated than filtering technology sold by antispam and antivirus vendors, the challenge-response method was twice as effective as hosted services for spam prevention. According to the survey, 67% of challenge-response users specified that they are very satisfied with their email experience as compared to next highest technology, hosted services, in which 42% reported that they were very satisfied. Commercial software filters, such as those produced by McAfee, Symantec and Trend Micro, scored the lowest satisfying only 22% of respondents.(SearchSecurity.com, Robert Westervelt Jul. 2007)

www.bluebottle.com currently offers a public beta of this software.

Spam is a very common thing and at one point or another it is something that we have all had. Spam is not only an annoying email, it is a tactics for marketing. However many times you have received this type of email, it is becoming more and more dangerous. It can be generated by businesses as well as individuals. It is used to promote products and is also brought about by things like forwarding ( things like jokes, images or chain letters) spam can be used to gather information from your computer if opened as well as used to send out viruses. It is becoming an increasing threat. Spam has become such an issue, that people now have to have an entire email address just as a "throw away account" an email address specifically catered toward junk mail because if we were to let it, it would take up about 90% of our inbox's, not only is this an issue for our email account but it is also being directed towards our phone, and needs to be handled with caution Email-spam-sample.png Spam is a very common thing and at one point or another it is something that we have all had.

Ortho-Methylphenylpiperazine

ortho-Methylphenylpiperazine (also known as oMPP, oMePP, 1-(2-methylphenyl)piperazine, 2-MPP, and 2-MePP) is a psychoactive designer drug of the phenylpiperazine group. It acts as a serotonin–norepinephrine–dopamine releasing agent (SNDRA), with EC50 values for induction of monoamine release of 175 nM for serotonin, 39.1 nM for norepinephrine, and 296–542 nM for dopamine. As such, it has about 4.5-fold preference for induction of norepinephrine release over serotonin, and about 7.6- to 13.9-fold preference for induction of norepinephrine release over dopamine.

The 2,3-methyl and 4-methyl analogues show diminished activity as dopamine releasing agents with respective EC50 values of 1,207 nM and 9,523 nM. However, at the same time, induction of serotonin and norepinephrine release is retained and more balanced in the 2,3-methyl analogue, with respective EC50 values of 26 nM and 56 nM.

2016–17 DEL2 season

The 2016–17 DEL2 season was the fourth season since the founding of the DEL2, the second tier of German ice hockey, set below the Deutsche Eishockey Liga. The season ran from 10 September 2016 till 25 April 2017. Bietigheim Steelers was crowned league premiers by finishing top of the regular season standings. Löwen Frankfurt claimed the championship title by defeating Bietigheim Steelers 4–2 in the final series. Starbulls Rosenheim lost the relegation playoffs 2–4 against ETC Crimmitschau and were relegated from DEL2 to Oberliga.

Modus
Fourteen teams competed in the 2016–17 DEL2 regular season. EHC Bayreuth was promoted from Germany's third division, Oberliga. Each team played each other twice in the regular season, home and away, for a total of 52 matches each. The top six teams directly qualified for the championship playoffs, played in a best of seven format. Teams placed seven to ten advanced to the championship playoff qualifiers, which followed a best of three format. The bottom four teams enter the relegation playoffs. The two losing teams from round 1 face off in the relegation final with the losing team being relegated to Oberliga.

The DEL2 champion does not automatically get promoted to DEL. In September 2015, the DEL and DEL2 agreed to reintroduce promotion and relegation between the two leagues from the 2017–18 season onwards. The DEL2 champion would then have the opportunity to be promoted, provided it fulfilled the licensing requirements of the DEL, while the last-placed DEL club would be relegated.

The championship play-offs:

The qualifiers for the playoffs ran between 7 March 2017 to 12 March 2017. Four teams (7v10 and 8v9) competed in best of three series’. The two winning teams advanced to the championship playoffs. In 2017, the two higher ranked teams in the qualifiers, EHC Freiburg and EHC Bayreuth, won their series and advanced to the playoffs. Ravensburg Towerstars and SC Riessersee were knocked out and their season ended.

The championship playoffs ran between 14 March 2017 to 25 April 2017. Eight teams competed in best of seven series'. The series winning teams advanced through from the quarter-finals to the final. In 2017, the top two seeds Bietigheim Steelers and Löwen Frankfurt each won their quarter and semi-finals to reach the final. The Lions defeated the league premiers 4–2 in the finals series to secure the division 2 championship title, their first DEL2 championship trophy.

Note: All numbers represent series results, not a match score

Relegation
The relegation play-offs:

The relegation playoffs is contested between the four teams who finish bottom of the regular season standings. Run between 14 March 2017 and 11 April 2017, the four teams play best of seven series’. The teams that lose their first round advance to the second round. The winners secure their DEL2 status and avoid relegation. Whoever loses the second round is relegated to Oberliga. The 2017 edition saw Starbulls Rosenheim relegated to Oberliga after losing their first round series 2–4 against ETC Crimmitschau, who finished last in the regular season, before losing in six matches against ETC Crimmitschau in the second round.

Mona Holm

Mona Christine Holm, married Solberg (born 5 August 1983) is a Norwegian hammer thrower.

Early career
She grew up in Kolvereid. As a young girl she tried football, handball, badminton, cross-country skiing, cross-country running and the discus throw. She was discovered during a discus meetup in Oslo and advised to try the hammer throw. Lacking a training field, she used to stand on a remote road and throw the hammer into the adjacent woodlands. She attended upper secondary school in Namsos, but still without a group of throwers to train with, so she continued playing handball throughout her teenages. She later took higher education as a physiotherapist.

In the international age-specific competitions, she competed at the 2001 European Junior Championships, the 2002 World Junior Championships, the 2003 European U23 Championships and the 2005 European U23 Championships without reaching the final.

International career and national titles
Her stint in senior international competitions started at the 2006 European Championships, continuing with the 2007 World Championships, the 2010 European Championships, the 2011 World Championships and the 2012 European Championships. She reached the final on neither occasion. She tried qualifying for the 2012 Olympic Games, but was not given the green light by the Norwegian Athletics Association. She announced that this was the probable end of her elite career.

Mona Holm won her first national medal in the hammer throw in 2002, when she took the silver. She proceeded to become Norwegian champion 9 times, every year in a row from 2004 throughout 2012. She won the King's Cup, the award for the best female result at the national championships, in 2007 and 2011. During her heyday, she represented the clubs IL Norna-Salhus and IK Tjalve. As the undisputed best hammer thrower for a decade, she represented Norway in several European Cups and European Team Championships, as well as European Winter Throwing Cups.

Her main coach was Einar Brynemo. During her career, she also managed to win the bronze medal in discus throw at two Norwegian championships; in 2004 and 2010. After sitting out the 2013 Norwegian championships due to childbirth, Mona Holm Solberg tried to win her tenth hammer title in 2014, but succumbed to Trude Raad. Holm Solberg took her last hammer medal at the nationals, another silver medal to bring her silver count to four, in 2016.

Records
Holm broke the Norwegian record in the hammer throw a total of ten times. The record stood at a modest 60.56 metres when Holm threw 60.84 in May 2004 in Szombathely. Three weeks later, she improved to 60.92 metres at the 2004 European Cup Second League Group A meet in Reykjavík. In 2005, the record took a leap to 62.19 metres in Gävle, at the 2005 European Cup First League Group A competition, before Holm reached 62.82 metres at the Norwegian championships at Fana stadion.

Another improvement to 64.20 metres, set in April 2006 while conducting pre-season training in Poros, was not acknowledged as the stadium was "not certified". Instead, she went via 63.39 metres at another European Cup meet—the 2006 European Cup Second League Group A in Banská Bystrica—before even surpassing her unofficial record with back-to-back throws of 64.50 metres at the Öresundsspelen in Helsingborg and 64.89 at the Bottnaryd Throwing Meeting in Bottnaryd, both in Sweden. She also came close at the national championships at Bislett stadion, where she threw 64.68 metres.

2007 would see her largest record improvement so far. At the Hallescher Werfertage in May 2007 she broke the record twice, first with 66.66 metres (as an ancilliary record) and finally with 67.80 metres. This would stand for three years, until an elite meeting in Tønsberg in June 2010, when she surpassed it with 67.96 metres. This too would stand for some time, until August 2011 when Holm reached her final best throw of 70.43 at the Norwegian championships in Byrkjelo. This was also the Nordic record at the time. Her Norwegian record stood until 2019 when overtaken by Beatrice Nedberge Llano.

Personal life
She married Paul Solberg, a former javelin thrower and now coach, in Prestebakke in April 2012. The couple settled in his hometown Halden. She later moved to Fredrikstad and worked at the sport school Wang Ung.
