WP:FRINGEBLP of a probably non-notable subject. I just cut the WP:PROMO and unsourced material, but obviously feel free to revert partially or in full if you can verify the information. Tagged for notability for nine years. Analysis of sources below; don't think they combine to establish notability, and I couldn't find anything else.

 * Comment. Any further discussion on this page? As this is my first edit, would love to hear feedback.WikiBotEli (talk) 19:51, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the ping, and for your revisions. I looked over the sources you added and, I'm sorry to say, they don't affect my opinion too much. WP:AUD says that attention solely from local media, or media of limited interest and circulation, is not an indication of notability, and from what I can see the sources are largely local or of interest only to enthusiasts of the paranormal. In addition, a number of them are interviews, which are generally not a good sign of notability (although I have recently come to the opposite conclusion in another context). I did notice that one source you added is from a North Dakota TV channel, which is not local to Minnesota. But it is also an interview, so of limited value in assessing notability. My opinion that this article should be deleted remains unchanged, but some of the sources you added do make it a somewhat closer call in my view. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 20:52, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * . Correct me if I'm wrong but does the WP:AUD only apply to notability requirements for companies as it is under the WP:COMPANY or does it apply to people as well? If applicable, I have sourced at least 4 news articles that are produced by news organizations that have statewide coverage. Per WP:AUD, "at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary." More than one has been provided.
 * 1)  reliable, independent, statewide coverage (Minnesota Monthly)
 * 2)  reliable, independent, statewide coverage.
 * 3)  reliable, independent, statewide coverage (Star Tribune).
 * 4)  reliable, independent, local coverage.
 * 5)  reliable, independent, local coverage.
 * 6)  reliable, independent, local coverage.
 * 7)  reliable, independent, statewide coverage.
 * 8)  national podcast
 * 9)  national radio show
 * 10)  and  local radio show
 * You're correct that WP:AUD applies to corporations, not people; that was my mistake, and I have struck it. The links you provided above do indicate at least local interest, but again many of them are interviews and some of them (e.g., and ) are the same article republished by different newspapers. I will leave it to the community to decide whether these sources are sufficient to demonstrate notability. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 23:06, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete the additional sourcing adds nothing to the quality of those already identified as not satisfying WP:BLPSOURCES by AleatoryPonderings, unfortunately. ——  Serial  16:16, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep Reading through this discussion it appears that all of the general notability requirements have been met. Significant and continuous coverage for years (at least 11) from reliable sources, including: KSTP (Minnesota), KARE 11 (Minnesota), North Dakota Today (North Dakota) and numerous national featured articles and appearances in the news, radio shows and podcasts - per previous edits. After the recent changes the article has 25 sources, many of which are from reputable, reliable, and independent news agencies. The primary criteria for General Notability Guidelines of “significant coverage,” “reliable,” and “independent” have clearly been met beyond the minimum requirements WP:GNG.  referenced WP:BLPSOURCES  which states “contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced should be removed immediately and without discussion.” I see all of the sources as being valid, reliable sources WP:RS. With the WP:PROMO having been deleted, what continues to be specific issues up for discussion? Is it just a matter of opinion for notability or is there specific reasoning that the original issues that we’re up for discussion have not been remediated?Info TIC (talk) 18:56, 28 August 2020 (UTC) — Info TIC (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Wiktionary talk:Translations/Policy policy

 * from Wiktionary talk:Translations Rod (A. Smith) 21:56, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

<<IP_ADDRESS> 16:47, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)>Foreign word policy should be decided whith all Wiktionaries, not only the English one. If both French and English Wiktionaries include the same information in English about the same French words, it'd be a loss of time. If none of the 2 include part of useful information, it'd be a pity.

It's unclear to me whether this is supposed to be a all-Wiktionary Think tank, or an English Wiktionary one.

 * I think it is quite safe to assume that people active on other wiktionaries will in general not see this page, or know of its existence. What we would need, then, is a page on meta where all interwiktionary issues can be adressed. \Mike 17:03, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 It might be nice to have some cross-language policies about certain stuff here, but there's no reason that the French Wiktionary should have English information (outside of _very_ basic translation) about French words. That's the job for the English Wiktionary. Likewise, the English Wiktionary has no business holding information in French about any words.

Cookbook:Soy Bean

The Soy bean is a small fat green bean. It is particularly associated with East Asian cuisines, large-scale commercial cooking, meat analogues for vegetarians, and industrial processes. Soy beans may be served uncooked and whole during a Japanese meal. They may be cooked and pressed to yield soy milk, which can then be coagulated to make tofu. They may be fermented to produce soy sauce, natto, miso, and tempeh. Soy beans may be used to produce bean sprouts that are larger than the normal ones produced from mung beans. Soy bean oil has a high smoke point, making it suitable for high-temperature frying.

Edamame
To eat beans right out of the shell, boil them until they are al dente (still slightly firm). Rinse to cool slightly, and season (salt, generally) as desired. You can easily suck the al dente beans out of the shell. Beans may also be shelled and added to other dishes, such as salads. Beans are easy to shell after they are boiled briefly.

Talk:Palace economy

Untitled
The last sentence "According to press and U.S. government reports, the North Korean state also engages in a wide array of illicit activities in order to fund the ruling elite's lifestyle." is irrelevant to the discussion on palace economies, as arguments could be made to show that the U.S. engages in similarly illicit or illegal activities. An explanation of palace economies has little to do with who's élites are committing "illicit activities".

Fair use rationale for Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg
Image:Pyat rublei 1997.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.

Legitimacy
There is a concept of the palace economy current, which began as a description of some economies in the ancient world, especially Mycenaean Greek. Typically it seems to have become common coin with reference to modern economies. I am sure out there somewhere is a legitimate theorist who knows what he meant and came up with some legitimate modern examples - after all, most economies began in ancient times and modern paradigms exist, so why should this one be any different? But he seems to have escaped this article so far and instead we get a bunch of non-NPOV material some of which already have been hacked out and the remainder questioned. Apparently what was there reflected the article's initial author's personal opinion. Let me say this. Wikipedia I believe is not interested in political or ideological propaganda except insofar as the article is actually about it. Right-wing - left-wing - forget it! Similarly anyone's personal ideas of a palace economy are not of interest here unless they happen to be the published opinions of a noted author respected in the field. We aren't interested in what you may think of the economy of North Korea or of Russia or of anyone's palace economy. What we want to know primarily is "what is it?" and that answer should evidence as much as possible freedom from bias. In other words, no slanting please. I can help out with some of the ancient palace economies but we really need someone with an unbiased view of the modern. The concept is perfectly valid and legitimate in case you were beginning to wonder.Dave (talk) 14:27, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

The leisured class etc.
Rather than waiting around for any attempts to justify this, which may not ever happen, I removed it to here:

The division of labour in such an economy leads to a leisured elite, a class of bureaucrats, and a class of subsistence farmers. This system can be seen as a combination of a command economy and a subsistence economy.

My reason is that these consequences are not in the ancient palace economy theory and you would have to do some pretty high stepping to show that they follow from the modern, if any such are actually credibly found. In other words, such a statement requires a credible theorist, scientific data, or both. "Everyman"'s opinion does not do it.Dave (talk) 14:50, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Credible theorists and scientific data are abundant, but apparently not making their way here. After stumbling upon this article, I realized I was reading a description of Siam/Thailand's economy for most of its history, at least until the end of the 19th C., with the transition not fully complete in the 21st. What started my search was John Crawfurd's characterization of Siamese palace officials as "rapacious." While true enough, it falls far short of giving a balanced view of the motivations of the "leisured elite," bureaucrats and "subsistence farmers." The latter I don't think existed as a class. Furthermore, subsistence economy only discusses nation-states, not subsistence agriculture or self-sufficiency. The lower strata are better explained in Zomia (geography) and in the theories of James C. Scott, as to how these played out in mandala (Southeast Asian history) polity. Pawyilee (talk) 14:11, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Asia, etc.
A serious defect of all economic theories is failure to incorporate ecology. The end of palace economy in Minoa and eastern Mediterranean in general was precipitated by the Minoan eruption and ensuing volcanic winter, severely disrupting the trade that all economies depend upon, even those claimed to be self-sufficient. The recovery of trade after the Minoan eruption was further impacted by localized deforestation, from ship-building during prosperity. Interruption of trade precipitated the end of the Bronze Age due to shortages of tin, which had to be imported.

The beginning of the end of palace economies and the mandala system in Southeast Asia coincided with the period of the Maunder minimum, which included the Mount Tambora eruption of 1812, accompanied by wide-spread earthquakes and violent weather that get only scant mention in chronicles of the time, and none that I've found in historical accounts.

Anyway, I'm hoping improvements to this article will help me to balance Crawfurd's opinion of the Siamese palace economy. —Pawyilee (talk) 14:24, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Removed sentence
" It can be seen as a combination of a command economy and a subsistence economy."

No it can't. Who says? Need a reference there. Moreover, the article attached to the second link totally misunderstands subsistence economy. The palace is the very opposite. To make these statements successfully, you need some definitions and some references. Planned it is. Subsistence it is not.Dave (talk) 15:38, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Wow! I really rang your bell. Let me make it clear that I entirely agree. Like I said above in answer to your 2008 entry, subsistence economy only discusses nation-states, not subsistence agriculture or self-sufficiency. Furthermore,Subsistence economy' in this context is anachronistic, as I believe it dates back to Gandhi's failed attempt to make India independent of the rest of the world. Subsistence agriculture, on the other hand, should not be anachronistically called subsistence farming, which should properly refer to tax farming, i.e., insofar as it refers to ripping off those at the subsistence level. While Zomia (geography) and the theories of James C. Scott do not use the term palace economy — perhaps because it is not a well-known term, but more likely because it applies to all — nevertheless make it clear that all depend on such ripping-off — as do my cellphone and laptop I'm using now. —Pawyilee (talk) 05:35, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Ripping off, is that a scientific term? Well this article is obviously a thorn in the side so it is time to move on it. I think there were two ways to go: a culture history way and a talk-the-talk way. The intro and the box say one way, the outline says another. Mixed signals. The talk-the-talk type uses all specialized language of economics. I don't like that type; this is a people's encyclopedia, not an economics journal. My only concern was, if you are going to use specialized terms of talk-the-talk in a cultural article, you need to give us a hint as to what you may mean; otherwise, as you see, we draw all the wrong confusions. By the way, in the world of socio-political abstraction, there are no thieves and they do not steal. Up until the time the Federal marshals arrive to take you into custody, you are only maximizing profits and getting the greatest return on your investments, etc. The diplomatic world has an equivalent newspeak. WP never goes for emotional content, such as crook, barbarian, thief, torturer and the like. That is for drama, such as Agamemnon's wife and her lover butchering Agamemnon in his bathtub after rolling out the red carpet. That was a high-risk political maneuver, or some such thing. Anyway I am getting us through the definition and then breaking for a few days, or weeks, as the case may be. I see it all unfolding as a historical thing working up to the present. The modern uses of the modern theorists can then be brought in. I would only ask references and an explanation or two. If you want to jump ahead and do that, fine. The distribution system was so pervasive in the early civilizations that only the main site can be covered I fear, but we can use "main." Ciao.Dave (talk) 13:28, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

New testament
I'm familiar with the New Testament description of early Christian communities giving all they had to the patriarch, who would return what they needed to live, as I wrote a term paper on in when I was in 6th or 7th grade during the McCarthy Era. I was sent the the principal's office where he burned it in his ashtray. I don't propose anything so drastic, but consider it a good example of primitive communism and of a failed economic measure, but a poor example of a redistribution economy. A palace economy often, if not always, does, however, subsume a gift economy, which continues in Thailand even though its Palace economy was phased out in the latter half of the 19th Century. BTW, Crawfurd's new testimony gives some examples of what happens to transgressors of Palace economic rules — thrashings of the better classes and on-the-spot beheading of the lower, with ignorance excusing neither. —Pawyilee (talk) 07:38, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
 * History pretty well condemns the McArthy Era. I can sympathize with you all right, as I had to live through it myself. Those were the days when you had to take a prosecutorial lawyer or have no lawyer, like it or not, you might be thrown in jail indefinitely without even a hearing, the intelligence community conducted assassinations here at home regularly, the FBI worked in close conjunction with private organizations such as the John Birch Society, slavery was perpetuated regularly through the paeonage system by the former plantantion owners. I could just go on and on and on. If that is all that happened to you, boy are you lucky. Now, I cannot say that I agree with you in any way concerning the "dictatorships of the proletariat." They were first and foremost distribution economies enforced by violence. If the peasants would not turn over their foodstuffs for distribution to the big cites, their resources were destroyed, they were decimated, and the rest turned out into the cold. Excuse me, but "primitive communism" if that is what it is is too a distribution economy. There is a central administration. All resources get funneled through it. See Chadwick's implied question about what counts as a palace. You know, it takes a special kind of internal toughness to study history accurately. Anyone can make it up as you go along, which most people do, and which you have to constantly fight on WP. For example, everyone has heard about how the Swiss assisted the Jews in the last half of the war. Only the Jews are telling us that for the first half of the war the Swiss turned them over to the nazis on request, and furthermore, the Swiss then appropriated the bank accounts of those turned over. No one wants to hear THAT. Well, what are you going to do? I do not care what example is there. I suggest if you do not like that example, supply another. I recall to you the McCarthy era, when only the narrowest views of history or politics were allowed and you had to run in terror if you said or wrote anything that even impled anything else. Most topics were verboten. I still remember my department chairman telling me on the quiet not ever to discuss religion and politics. What else was there? You use your judgement. If you want to refine the definition according to some theorist go right ahead. Anyone can edit WP, up until such time as they can't.
 * For the morals, well, sometimes that line is not easy to draw. Other times it is. If such things were done to you and yours there would not be the slightest question. If they were not, be as objective as you like. If you guess wrong you may draw down the whole society suddenly on your head, and that includes WP. I suppose ideally in an international situation such as this you ought to try not inject any emotionalism or slant into it. Frankly sometimes you are dealing with the raw torrent of deep emotion. Well listen. I have to go now. I will be back after all that has been sorted out to go on with the Bronze Age. Pitch right in. Refine the definition if you can. Give us the nuances that prve the Christian communities were not distribution economies. As I pointed out at the end of definition section, the whole concept has now been placed on the table.Dave (talk) 17:23, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

High-risk political maneuver; maximizing profits; economic evils
High-risk political maneuver was a point raised Queen Sirikit. She sponsored the filming of The Legend of Suriyothai, which includes regicides, infanticides and the brief reign of Bun Si. In the case of the latter, she took pains to have published a warning of judging Queen Si Suda Chan's actions as disgustingly immoral, but as high-risk political maneuver on behalf of her clan, which had lost practically everything and stood to gain a lot – if it worked, which it didn't. I see it as similar to the morality tales in Judges, which concludes by implying this is why Israel needs a stable dynasty of kings – even if they impose a Palace economy. I think Her Majesty implied much the same, as when her king passes from the scene, Thailand fears a die-nasty crisis.

As for maximizing profits, that was secondary point of the British-Siamese missions, the main being who intended war with whom. I want to balance Crawfurd's valid POV with that of the Princes – which had lot longer legs. As for "ripped off," you are right that such language should not be writ in the article, even if hands holding goods or heads thinking of withholding same were in fact ripped off. As for goods, the oldest reference I know is in the Garden of Eden economic morality tale, where perceiving something as good for goods' sake – rather than as a necessity – necessarily introduces evils into economics. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 08:50, 23 February 2012 (UTC) who didn't notice he was logged out.
 * You don't say? Well, that is interesting. Thanks for telling us that. In the ivory tower of academia however we cannot write of that. It wouldn't get by WP admins. You can probably write all the porn you like and you can even advertise if the persons advertised contribute to WP. But really, is the public ready to hear the truth on these matters? I think we are trying to stick to the most objective language. My main point was, we can;t get moral here, that is beyond WP's scope. "Repent ye sinners, repent" is not a song they wish to sing. Best wishes.Dave (talk) 17:30, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Duh. No, I don't say it in an article, nor do I wish to sing, much less write or link to porn, but am making a good-faith effort to expose my biases here. As for that of the British and the Siamese Palace, both viewed the other as rapacious, and I want to balance Crawfurd's "free trade" bias with that of the historical Palace Economy's. Rama III was already transitioning from the latter to a mercantilist bias, for which he was honored as The Great (in finance) on a Thai 500-baht banknote. --Pawyilee (talk) 07:57, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Shangjing, Zhejiang

 is a village located in Tangxi, Wucheng District, Jinhua, Zhejiang province, China. It is situated about 30 km to the west of downtown Jinhua and 2.5 km away from the town of Tangxi. The village is bordered by Yue Stream (越溪) in the east, Houdayuan Stream (厚大源) in the south, and Jiufeng Mountain (九峰山) in the west. The village was formerly known as Fenglinzhuang (枫林庄) or "Maple Forest Village" and changed to the current name due to its "wind and water favourable" location, according to the principles of fengshui characteristics.

Architecture
Shangjing still preserves more than 50 ancient houses and 20 historic grand halls that can be dated back to Ming and Qing Dynasties. The village’s buildings are of a typical Wu-style and feature white walls, black tiles ornate wooden cornices, high doors, and lattice windows. Its wood carvings and tile carvings are typical elements of ancient Chinese architecture. Among them is the provincially unique five-room ancestral hall, known as Lui Clan Ancestral Hall, and six other architectural sites: Baishun Hall, Liuji Hall, Qianji Hall, Xizhen Lane, and Folk House 48 (the Upstairs Hall). The Trail Gate Tower, Dragon Eye Well and Lui Clan Ancestral Grave were all named the "Provincial Cultural Relics Protection Units" in January 2017.

Liu Clan Ancestral Hall
The hall was initially built in 1264 and reconstructed in 1627 by order of Tianqi Emperor. The whole building is a south oriented three-hall construction covering an area of nearly 3000 square meters. Having a grand door lintel and delicately-carved wooden brackets, the hall assumes an architectural style that is quite rare in the province and earns it the reputation of the main Ancestral Temple of Tangxi. Liu Clan Ancestral Hall is one of the “two and half ancestral halls” widely known in Jinhua. The complex has been listed as a “Provincial Cultural Relics Protection Unit” in Zhejiang.

Screen Wall of Auspiciousness
The screen wall is a brick construction consisting of a pedestal, a body, a top and a Chinese character "" (fú, meaning "blessing") in the middle. Screen walls of auspiciousness like this were very popular in the Ming Dynasty (1368 – 1644) and acted as screen against the penetration of wind and evil and the dissipation of qi. On the right side of the wall is a deer, which in Chinese is homophonic to "" (lù) meaning "wealth". On the left side is a crane implying longevity. These carvings together with peaches and old men around the wall and on four corners convey a wish of auspiciousness, wealth, and longevity.

Chengqi Hall Site
Chengqi Hall was built in the early Ming Dynasty. "" (chéng qǐ) means "taking over from the past and setting a new course for the future; glorifying forefathers and enriching posterity". It was said that Chengqi Hall was built by the eldest (Liu Fushigong) of three brothers, who belong to the Fu generation of Liu clan. The building is structurally compact and delicate, using brick beams and columns near the wall of the hall. So the hall is also known as brick hall. Now only the eastern rooms remain.

Lamei Hall
The whole building faces south and has two storeys. With the gate, hallways and back room co-axially arranged, the first floor is wide and bright and used for the display and sales of food and local specialties. The second floor is clean and spacious and offers an excellent view, and now is used as a lounge where visitors can watch all kinds of performances put on outside down on the ground.

Chongli Hall
Chongli Hall was initially built from 1457 to 1464. It is a three-hall construction facing south and located on the head of the boat-shaped village, and is characterized by a unique two-homocentric squares courtyard in the middle. The pond in front of the gate is called "Up Water Pond" (or Shangshui Pond), which together with the building forms a fengshui pattern called "Zhuque" (firebird) – "Xuanwu" (dragon tortoise) (i.e. a spatial layout) and acts for fire prevention purpose.

Baishun Hall
Baishun Hall was initially built between 1403 and 1424, and is also known as Lower Hall. It was built by the second elder brother (Liu Fushiwugong) of three brothers who belong to the Fu generation of Liu clan, and has a history of 600 years. Oriented south, the whole building is a brick beam-column, three-hall three-courtyard construction, carrying a plain but lofty brick carving of "" on the arch. The central bay has a removable stage, and rooms on the left and right sides are made into elevated balconies for high officials and noble lords to watch the performance do recreational activities. Large timber is used in the middle hall, with beams and columns up to 60 cm in diameter. The hall is three-room wide and nine-purlin deep, which was typical in Ming Dynasty. Baishun Hall is the biggest among the “36 halls” so far preserved in Shangjing Village and appears on the list of Provincial Cultural Relics Protection Units.

Liuji Hall
Liuji Hall was built with the financial support of Liu Zhaogan, the Grand Preceptor of Emperor Jiaqing. The whole building is southwest oriented. It covers an area of 306m2, and appears on the list of Provincial Cultural Relics Protection Units. The lintel of the gate is engraved with "" as well as various auspicious patterns. On the bottom left of the gate are horse and monkey carvings, implying quick promotion, and on the bottom right are deer and crane carvings, implying eternal prosperity. The hall is three-room wide and is connected with walls on both sides, and each wall has a side door to form a courtyard. Inside the hall preserved wood carvings with animate figures of characters, flowers and vases.

Tail Gate Tower
Tail Gate tower is one of the bridge galleries built over a street. In Shangjing Village, there are two kinds of gate towers, i.e. the Head Gate Tower and the Tail Gate Tower, both of which act together to connect two relatively independent houses and make them look integrated. With arches, "women needn’t walk on the road and shoes won\t be dampened on a rainy day". They also provide a space for folks to chitchat. The Tail Gate Tower was built in Qianlong Period of the Qing Dynasty and has been listed as a Provincial Cultural Relics Protection Unit.

Yuanji Hall
Yuanji Hall was built by Liu Weicheng, the grandfather of Liu Zhaogan. Because of the meritorious services by his grandson Liu Zhaogan, he was honored with the title of "Fengzhi Dafu" and granted the entitlement to Level-5 official welfare by order of Emperor Jiaqing. Yuanji Hall opens its gate to the west and was previously guarded with a pair of drum-shaped bearing stones (destroyed after liberation). The hall currently is a 3D experience house exhibiting fairy tales and legends from all around the world and offering visitors an extraordinary cultural experience.

Liu Zhaogan’s Former Residence
Liu Zhaogan, who was nicknamed “White Duck”, earned his certified student title at the age of eight, the first-degree scholar title at the age of thirteen, and became the Grand Preceptor of the then-Prince Jiaqing during the Qianlong Period of the Qing Dynasty. The gate is wide, featuring wide head and narrow tail for the purpose of preventing dissipation of Qi. A pair of drum-shaped bearing stones, which was a typical indication of the architectural class and family status of dignitaries in the Qing Dynasty, is placed apart on both sides. The gate used to carry a plaque of "" (yù shū wén) which is missing now. The central room is decorated with a caisson ceiling and lattices on doors and windows are also elaborately designed and carved. The sparrow braces above the gourd beam are carved with two animate goldfish, symbolizing auspiciousness and richness, and the beautiful lotus on the brackets implies the identity of the house owner.

Sutra Hall Site
Sutra Hall, also known as Fuqing Temple, was the place where natives prayed to Buddha for help. In addition to the statues of Maitreya Buddha, Weituo Bodhisattva, the Four Guardians, Avalokitesvara (or Guanyin), Tathagata, and the Eighteen Disciples of the Buddha, it used to enshrine the Goddess of Birth (whom ancient women frequently visited to pray for a son), Lord Guan, and God of Wealth. Four characters "" (fēng lín bǎo zhāng) are still faintly discernible above the lintel of the west door. Compared with the past prosperity, now only the ruins remain.

History
The village was founded in 1048 when Liu Qing, the first ancestor of the Liu clan, settled there, the clan has been living in the village for 36 generations. The village is surrounded by two streams, called Dongzhen (东圳) and Xizhen (西圳), respectively and dotted with ancient alleys, houses, halls, and wells here and there.

The village is known for its cultural heritage, farming tradition, tea plantation, historical buildings, traditional dishes, traditional dances and costumes, and sites such as the Xifen artificial lake and a 1500 year old Buddhist temple near Jiufeng Mountain.

Apart from its signature Jinhua ham the village itself is known for its traditional dishes such as cow's hoof (牛蹄), fish (石斑鱼), fried chicken (生炒鸡) and cold noodles (水索粉).

Transportation
Jinhua is approximately four hours by car from Shanghai. There is also the G-train (Gaotie High speed train) which takes approximately 2 hours to get to Jinhua Railway Station. There is a public bus to Tangxi town and another bus straight to the village. The village is close to Tangxi and there are footpaths and road links to the village.

El Chichón

El Chichón, also known as Chichonal, is an active volcano in Francisco León, north-western Chiapas, Mexico. El Chichón is part of a geologic zone known as the Chiapanecan Volcanic Arc. El Chichón is a complex of domes with a tuff ring, made of ejected volcanic material, located between the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt and the Central America Volcanic Arc. El Chichón erupted in 1982; prior to this, activity had not occurred since c. 1360, although debates in literature occur around an eruption occurring in c. 1850.

El Chichón became famous for its 1982 eruption. In little under a week, the presumed dormant volcano produced three plinian eruptions (March 29, April 3, and April 4). The eruptions released a substantial amount of sulfur dioxide and particulates into the atmosphere. While the total volume of the eruption was much smaller than the famous eruption of Pinatubo in 1991, El Chichón's impacts were equally significant on global climate. El Chichón is often overlooked in comparison to other historic eruptions, yet the 1982 eruptions provide important lessons on preparation for volcanic disasters and the influence volcanoes can have on climate.

1982 eruption
The 1982 eruption of El Chichón is the largest volcanic disaster in modern Mexican history. The powerful 1982 explosive eruptions of high-sulfur, anhydrite-bearing magma destroyed the summit lava dome and were accompanied by pyroclastic flows and surges that devastated an area extending about 8 km around the volcano. A total of 9 villages were completely destroyed, killing 1,900 people. A new 1-km-wide, 300-m-deep crater that now contains an acidic crater lake was created. The landscape was covered in ash up to 40 cm in depth. Over 24,000 km2 of countryside was affected, devastating coffee, cocoa, banana crops, and cattle ranches. The eruption caused natural dams to form along the Rio Magdalena river, inducing lahars, which destroyed key infrastructure. The total damage caused by the 1982 eruption is believed to amount to $55 million (equivalent to $132 million in present-day US dollars).

Lack of preparation
With more than 600 years since the last major eruption of El Chichón, few people were aware of the volcanic risk. Most presumed it to be a dormant volcano or extinct. Throughout 1980 and 1981 earthquakes were felt in the surrounding regions, and geologists hazard mapped the region highlighting risks, but no increases were seen in monitoring activity.

Climate impacts
It was a VEI-5 eruption, injecting 7 million metric tonnes of sulfur dioxide and 20 million metric tonnes total of particulate material into the stratosphere, which circulated the Earth in three weeks. The amount of sulfur dioxide is comparable to the 20 million tonnes of the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo.

The eruption occurred just as the 1982–83 El Niño event was initiating; because of this several scientists suggested that the El Chichón eruption caused the El Niño. However, climate modeling and detailed studies of past eruptions and El Niño have shown that there are no plausible theories connecting these two events, and that the timing was merely a coincidence. As a result of the simultaneous eruption and El Niño, the climate felt the impacts of both, making it challenging to separate their effects on temperature. Generally a volcanic event would induce global cooling, particularly in summer months, however no cooling was seen in the first year after the El Chichón eruption, because the El Niño produced large compensating warming. The climatic effects also triggered winter warming patterns observed within northern hemisphere continents in 1982 and 1983, with temperatures increasing over North America, Europe, and Siberia. During the same winter, Alaska, Greenland, the Middle East, and China witnessed colder temperatures than normal, highlighting regional variation. The variation is said to be a result of volcanic aerosols impact on the atmospheric wind patterns, including the Arctic Oscillation.

The westerly drift of the El Chichon eruption cloud had significant impact on Hong Kong's 1982 annual rainfall causing the second wettest year (3247.5mm) since record began in 1884. Satellite tracking showed the stratospheric cloud was above Hong Kong on 16 April 1982 which coincided with the record low humidity measured at ground level. Condensation nuclei for rain was provided by aerosols, ice crystals and particulates generated by the eruption settling through the troposphere.

Ash properties
The deposition of ash in the surroundings of the volcano varies with distance from the volcano since the ash particles vary in size. This is problematic, since ash samples are collected from the ground in order for the optical and chemical properties to be measured which too will vary with distance from the volcano. Therefore, one can only measure certain relevant parameters for samples collected from the air or from the ground. However, some samples are of greater interest than others. Thus, the most important samples are the ones furthest from the volcano (80 km, 100 km, ) due to the fact that they are the most likely to reach the stratosphere. In particular, the 80 km one has shown similarities with stratospheric ash samples.

Chemical properties
For ash samples around 100 km away from the volcano, the presence of the soluble and non soluble components has been identified.

The water-soluble components present in the highest concentration are Ca2+ and Sulfate. There have also been traces of Na+, K+, Mg2+, Bicarbonate and Cl−.

The non-soluble part consists mostly of SiO2 (around 59%) and Al2O3 (around 18%) along with trace amounts (less than 5%) of other components, such as CaO, Na2O and Fe2O3.

Optical properties
For the El Chichón cloud, the optical depth has been measured to be around 0.3 around mid-visible wavelengths.

The imaginary part of the refractive index, describing the attenuation of radiation for the 80 km sample, varies between 0.004 at 300 nm and 0.001 at 700 nm. Based on these results, the real part of the refractive index of the stratospheric El Chichón ash is estimated around 1.52, while the imaginary part is expected to be slightly less than the one measured for the ground samples.

Cookbook:Egg Roll

| Meat Recipes

Egg rolls are a savory Chinese-American fried pastry. They consist of a filling wrapped in a wheat flour skin and deep-fried. Egg rolls may be eaten plain or dipped in sweet-and-sour sauce or teriyaki sauce.

Note that these egg rolls do not contain cabbage and carrots, which are used by commercial egg roll producers to cheapen the filling; as a result, the filling in these egg rolls is superior to the commercial product.

Ingredients

 * Egg roll wrappers (purchased or made from scratch)
 * Chicken or pork
 * Broccoli (optional)
 * Bok choy (optional)
 * Celery (optional)
 * Spinach (optional)
 * Bean sprouts
 * Powdered ginger
 * Soy sauce
 * Bamboo shoots
 * Oil to fry the filling, possibly including sesame oil
 * Oil to fry the finished rolls, possibly including shortening
 * Egg white

Filling

 * 1) Cut the meat into tiny pieces. This is much easier to do if the meat is cooked, but the result will be better if you cut the meat raw and cook it after cutting.
 * 2) Cut the bamboo shoots into matchsticks.
 * 3) If using, chop the broccoli florets into little pieces ~⅜ inch in diameter. Cut the stalk into matchsticks.
 * 4) If using celery, cut the stalks lengthwise into ¾ inch-wide pieces and then crosswise into ⅛-inch slices.
 * 5) If using bok choy, cut the leaves away from the stalk. Treat the stalks as celery. Cut the leaves crosswise in ½-inch strips, then break the strips into 1.5-inch pieces.
 * 6) If using spinach, treat it much like the bok choy leaves.
 * 7) Wash the bean sprouts, discarding any that are not white and crisp.
 * 8) Place oil in a wok and turn on the heat. High temperatures can produce a better result, but they require rapid stirring to prevent burning. Beginners should use lower temperatures. Split the cooking into batches as needed to ensure that your wok is not too full; there should be plenty of room to stir and toss the food in your wok. You may prefer to cook each ingredient separately, then mix them at the end.
 * 9) Add the meat. If it is uncooked, lightly stir-fry it now. Drain juices and add more oil as needed.
 * 10) You may add a small amount of sesame seed oil and/or sesame seeds for flavor.
 * 11) Add soy sauce. For a typical wok full of food, add a tablespoon.
 * 12) Add ginger. About ½ teaspoon of ginger should be right, depending on taste. Ginger is somewhat hot.
 * 13) Add the broccoli, celery, and/or bok choy stalks. When done, they should be just slightly softened. Broccoli should end up being very bright green, losing the bluish cast but not gaining any hint of a yellow-brown cast.
 * 14) Add bok choy leaves and/or spinach. When done, they should be just barely wilted.
 * 15) Add the bamboo shoots and bean sprouts, and turn off the heat. Do not overcook the bean sprouts.

Construction and frying

 * 1) Begin heating oil to fry the egg rolls. Deep-fat frying works best, though pan frying in ¾-inch of oil will also work. You will not need a basket; egg rolls may stick to a basket and rip. You will need tongs.
 * 2) Place an egg roll wrapper on a plate. Beginners may use flour to help avoid sticking, but this will quickly foul the oil.
 * 3) Turn the plate so that the wrapper has one point toward you and one point away from you.
 * 4) Place some hot filling on the wrapper.
 * 5) Fold over the corner that faces away from you.
 * 6) Paint some egg white onto this corner to act as glue.
 * 7) Fold over the left-facing and right-facing corners.
 * 8) Paint some egg white onto these parts also, and also onto the remaining corner.
 * 9) Roll the egg roll toward you, onto the remaining corner of the wrapper.
 * 10) Examine the wrapper to ensure that it is fully sealed. Tears may be patched up with pieces from a spare wrapper and some egg white glue.
 * 11) Place the egg roll into the hot oil. You may be able to cook several at once, but do not allow the uncooked egg rolls to sit for long. Egg rolls that sit uncooked will become sticky and easy to tear.
 * 12) Turn the egg rolls over a few times as they cook, and dunk them under the oil. Be sure not to break them open as you do this.
 * 13) Remove the egg rolls when they are golden brown. Place them onto a fresh plate, so that they do not become contaminated with raw egg whites. Be sure to not handle the cooked egg rolls with hands that may be contaminated with raw egg whites.
 * 14) Serve quickly; they are best eaten hot.

Notes, tips, and variations

 * Like other fried foods, egg rolls do not keep very long after cooking, but the filling itself will keep well in the fridge.
 * Leftover filling and wrappers may be used to make wonton soup. Leftover wrappers may be deep-fried alone, then immediately covered in sugar and cinnamon.

Warnings

 * When a pot of hot oil catches fire, the flames will reach up for 2 or 3 feet. If you must work under flammable cabinets or shelves, be sure to have a fire extinguisher handy (class K in the United States, class F in Europe.) An oil with a high smoke point is less likely to cause problems, including indoor air pollution and fire. Do not use water to extinguish an oil fire.

Talk:8:00 class

Does re-caps mean that IRC chats are not private? I wasn't intending to licence my IRC comments under the GFDL! McCormack 16:24, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

I also think this should go into the WV namespace. It's far too insider for the mainspace. McCormack 16:26, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * What is private about IRC? "go into the WV namespace" <-- this is being crafted as a learning project. --JWSchmidt 16:33, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

 * When you log in to the IRC channel, there is no statement akin to the statement on a MediaWiki editing page about releasing content under any particular licence. Under most law, anything not explicitly licenced more freely is "all rights reserved". Further, privacy laws may apply to transient communications - for example, depending on jurisdiction, publishing tapes of phone-calls without getting permission from participants may be illegal and/or unethical. I think this is an inadequacy of Wikimedia's IRC channels - there is no statement at all about privacy, or lack thereof. There should be a guide such as "long-term copies of chats are stored/published" or "participants should not release copies of chats without permission from other participants". Whatever the rules are, they should be clarified. If there are no rules, they should be made. McCormack 16:47, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Does any of what you said (above) really have implications for making a list of topics that were discussed in an IRC chat channel? This is more of a freedom of speech issue than a privacy issue. --JWSchmidt 17:04, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * No. You're right. But that wasn't my question ;-) I said "does re-caps mean...?" If you're reworking the re-caps in such a way as to anonymize people's names and generally generalize, then there probably isn't a privacy issue. On the other hand, I wouldn't like an institution which could later devolve into a cut-and-paste of chats. McCormack 17:18, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

 * On the title, I'm really suspicious about this ;-) I mean, if anybody other than yourself came along and created a page called 8:00 class, I'd think to myself, "now shouldn't JWS go along and suggest to them they use a more descriptive title with a few more letters and a few less digits?". Has your account been compromised by someone? Are you the real JWS? McCormack 16:47, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Ha ha. I thought hard about the title. It is meant to be enigmatic and it is for advanced Wikiversity participants, not newbies. --JWSchmidt 16:59, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * May I please move this to 8:30 class instead? --HappyCamper 17:02, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Cormaggio would never make it. I still think this is an insider page thinly disguised as a learning project and should go in the WV namespace, or acquire a proper title, or both . McCormack 17:18, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I love this page. I come here everyday now. McCormack 04:28, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Good page
As this page develops, I'm thinking of actually adding it to my watchlist. I only very rarely do that ;-) It looks good. McCormack 17:40, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

New term?
Does WV Fall Term start at the beginning of September? Will this course be offered again? McCormack 06:18, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
 * When I was updating it, I was in need of some motivation to take the time to do things like look through recent changes. In other words, it served its purpose for me and it did not catch on with anyone else at the time. If you would like to help with it, we could start updates again any time. --JWSchmidt 02:42, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Presentations about Wikiversity

This is a project for learning about how to present information about the Wikiversity project to people outside of the Wikiversity project.

What do people want to know about Wikiversity?
People usually find the idea (even the name) of Wikiversity interesting on some level - but they also find it confusing. Here are a few basic issues and questions that people will have, and that any presentation on Wikiversity should address (or at least which the presenter should be prepared to answer):
 * What does Wikiversity do / What is it for?: The presentation should give an overview of the scope of Wikiversity - that it covers both educational materials and activities, and that it allows for research.
 * How is Wikiversity different from other educational wikis/repositories/resources?: This covers a lot of territory, but is usually specified by an example. The scope might help, and that Wikiversity is a wiki (and, more specifically, an openly editable wiki) will also distinguish it from some other sites. Specific distinctions are useful, but highlighting scope for collaboration between initiatives can be another useful way to deal with this question. In a Wikimedia context, this question inevitably is brought up in relation to Wikiversity and Wikibooks.
 * How can you develop educational material in an openly editable environment?: This raises the questions about wikis and validity of knowledge which are ever-present when discussing wikis, and for which there are different arguments and opinions. In fact, this question needs some context in how wikis work - community (many eyes), recent changes/watchlists, history, talk pages, etc. However, it's a very complex question - and one that the Wikiversity community is openly trying to address.
 * If I was to contribute content to Wikiversity, how do I know that some idiot won't mess it up? This is a persistent (and understandable) worry that people have about wikis and other people directly editing "their" content. It is useful here to point out that there are not just technical solutions to this (ie protecting pages, forking content), but also social solutions (simply asking people not to edit your own material, but fork it instead to make a derivative work). However, this also needs pointing out that technical solutions often need to be mediated by the social norms of the community (you can't just protect any page willy-nilly on Wikiversity), and that these norms are themselves contestable.

What do you want to know about Wikiversity?
If you have any questions of your own, how about asking on the Colloquium, or on this page's talk page? If you've given a presentation about Wikiversity, please add questions you think might be useful here. However, perhaps there should also be a separate page for collating a general list of questions about Wikiversity that people have raised - whether in a presentation, a class, on-wiki, in IRC...

People interested in presenting about Wikiversity

 * Cormaggio (Cormac Lawler) - I have given a number of presentations about Wikiversity - in my university, at academic conferences, and at Wikimedia conferences. Some of the resources on this page are mine - please let me know if you want the original source files (Powerpoint, Photoshop, etc.)
 * Note: Cormac Lawler presented the results of his research as "Wikiversity: a project struggling with its own identity" at Wikimania 2010 in Gdansk, Poland. --mikeu talk 17:04, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

 * AFriedman (talk) 04:31, 7 April 2010 (UTC) I presented [[Media:WikiversityPresentation02-2010.pdf]] at Wikipedia Meetup NYC. I am looking for other real-world venues to publicize Wikiversity and encourage the creation of more learning resources.
