apple-pie
The hyphenated form is an adjective only, not the noun apple pie, right? --Connel MacKenzie 17:17, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * That's the usual pattern for these compounds. Space in the middle is a noun, hyphen in the middle is an adjective. --EncycloPetey 17:39, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't think "apple-pie" can be used an adjective. Both compound nouns and compound adjectives are often written with a hyphen when used attributively, and with a space in other cases; hence "a man who is well liked" = "a well-liked man", "a slice of apple pie" = "an apple-pie slice", etc. (This depends on the writer, though, and in my experience scholarly works are often averse to hyphenating such compounds in any context.) —RuakhTALK 19:00, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
 * The OED (which often takes a cavalier attitude to spaces and hyphens) has apple-pie as headword for the noun. But it gives quotations both with hyphens and as two words. It gives an adjective meaning as "embodying traditional values . . ." and has apple-pie Amerian, apple-pie bed and apple-pie order. SemperBlotto 07:05, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I'm marking this RFV passed — clearly widespread use, but if you're not satisfied, re-RFV it and I'll add cites. (b.g.c. is overflowing with them.) —Ruakh TALK 07:40, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

The Village Headmaster

The Village Headmaster (later renamed The New Village Headmaster) is a Nigerian television drama series created by Olusegun Olusola and produced by Dejumo Lewis. Originally a radio drama series, the programme was Nigeria’s longest-running television soap opera shown on the NTA from 1968 to 1988, and starred Ted Muroko as the original headmaster. The television series was developed by Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation, and is considered one of the early successes of television drama in the country.

In 2021, a new revival of the show was announced, with Chris Iheuwa in the lead role of the headmaster. A number of actors from the earlier series are also returning.

Plot
The Village Headmaster was set in the fictitious Yoruba village of Oja, with plot lines dealing with social problems and effect of government policies in Oja. The television series was produced after Nigeria gained independence, and was the first major television drama with an ensemble cast from different ethnic groups. Nigerian Pidgin was mixed with standard English and Yoruba as the Oja residents' language of choice, with most scenes occurring in the Oloja of Oja's palace, the headmaster's school, and Amebo's palm wine shack.

Cast
(Source )
 * Ted Mukoro as Headmaster #1 - an old-fashioned school headmaster
 * Femi Robinson - Headmaster #2 (replaced Mukoro)
 * Justus Esiri - Headmaster #3 (replaced Robinson)
 * Dejumo Lewis - Kabiyesi, Oja's traditional ruler
 * Elsie Olushola - headmaster's wife (Clara Fagade)
 * Albert Egbe - Lawyer Odunuga
 * Ibidun Allison - Amebo, village gossip
 * Jab Adu - Bassey Okon, supplies store owner
 * Funso Adeolu - Senior Chief
 * Joe Layode - Teacher Garuba
 * Charles Awurum
 * Albert Kosemasi - Gorimapa

Production
The drama was produced in 1958 and aired on radio for six years before its format transitioned into a television series on NBC TV Lagos (later NTA). A full series began in 1968 with an initial order of 13 episodes and ran until 1988. The original recordings are not known to have survived. The 1964 master-script by Segun Olusola was published by Ariya Productions in 1977 with a cover drawing by cartoonist Josy Ajiboye.

2021 Revival
In a 2013 interview with the Nigerian Tribune, Tunde Oloyede, who produced 364 episodes of the series stated: "Before the Ambassador (Olusola) died, we had been working on bringing back The Village Headmaster in three possible formats. On film, on stage, and back to television."

In 2021, three decades after the short-lived 1991 revival, a new series of The Village Headmaster was announced. Filming had commenced in 2020, and trailers were released on the NTA and YouTube. The revamped series is a collaboration with the NTA and Wale Adenuga Productions, and is expected to air in April 2021. As majority of the previous cast are either deceased or retired, most roles have been recast, notably with Chris Iheuwa who is the fourth actor in the lead role. Dejumo Lewis reprises his role as the village's chief, as do Ibidun Allison (Amebo), Dele Osawe (Teacher Fadele), Dan Imoudu (Dagbolu), and Melville Obriango (Teacher Oghene). New actors include veterans Rachel Oniga (Iyalode) and Jide Kosoko (Eleyinmi), and Monica Friday (Tega Abaga).

Popular culture
The Village Headmaster is responsible for coining several terms now part of Nigerian culture. "Amebo" is used to refer to rumourmongers; in 2019, actress Ibidun Allison appeared as her Village Headmaster character Amebo in an advertising campaign for telecommunications company Globacom. The term "Gorimapa", after Kabiyesi's servant, is a common nickname for follicly-challenged men, and "Okoro" is used to describe Igbo stereotypes.

Haskell

Haskell is a functional programming language. It is distinct in a few ways:

 * Haskell is pure. A function when invoked using the same arguments will return the same result every time.
 * Haskell is lazy. Evaluations are performed only when needed.
 * Haskell provides a modern type system with state-of-the-art features like type classes and generalized algebraic data types (soon enough, terms like those will roll smoothly off your tongue).

Haskell is enjoyable to use because dealing with pure functions makes code much easier to reason about, and the advanced type system helps catch silly and profound mistakes.

Our aim in this book is to introduce you to the Haskell programming language — from the very basics to advanced features — and to computer programming in general. We urge seasoned programmers to be especially patient with this process. The languages you are familiar with are likely to differ greatly from Haskell, and the habits acquired from those languages might make it difficult to understand how things work — Haskell is simple, but different. Learning to see the world through the warped mindset of a functional programmer is an adventure in a brave new world, which brings knowledge valuable far beyond the boundaries of any language.

Overview
The book is divided into three sections: a Beginner's Track, an Advanced Track, and a section called Haskell in Practice. The last section, which covers practical use cases, depends only on the Beginner's Track. Seasoned programmers may read the overview to quickly evaluate what makes Haskell unique and different from other languages.

Beginner's Track
This section introduces you to Haskell basics and some commonly used libraries. At the end of this track, you should be able to write simple Haskell programs. Most chapters include exercises, with solutions, for your practice.

I'll Break down the first page the lesson covers line by line so we can see eachother's line of reasioning

 * THE INSIDE STORY!
 * This line is really just an eye grabber for those who flip through the book. The Authors bring great attention to this seemingly trite set of paragraphs.  It shows just how important what were about to read really is.

 * The Law of Fives

 * The Law of Fives is one of the oldest Erisian Mysterees. It was first revealed to Good Lord Omar and is one of the great contributions to come from The Hidden Temple of The Happy Jesus.

 * POEE subscribes to the Law of Fives of Omar's sect. And POEE also recognizes the holy 23 (2+3=5) that is incorporated by Episkopos Dr. Mordecai Malignatus, KNS, into his Discordian sect, The Ancient Illuminated Seers of Bavaria.

 * The Law of Fives states simply that: ALL THINGS HAPPEN IN FIVES, OR ARE DIVISIBLE BY OR ARE MULTIPLES OF FIVE, OR ARE SOMEHOW DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY APPROPRIATE TO 5.

 * The Law of Fives is never wrong.

 * In the Erisian Archives is an old memo from Omar to Mal-2: "I find the Law of Fives to be more and more manifest the harder I look."

 * The Title of this wonderful trite.

Samsung Galaxy M40

The Samsung Galaxy A60 and Samsung Galaxy M40 are Android phablets manufactured by Samsung Electronics as part of its fifth-generation Galaxy A series lineup and first-generation Galaxy M series lineup. The phones feature Android 9 (Pie) with Samsung's proprietary One UI skin, 64 or 128 GB of internal storage, and a 3500 mAh battery. The A60 is marketed for China, while the M40 is marketed for India and other countries. The A60 and M40 are identical except for colors, pricing, RAM and LTE bands. The A60 was unveiled on April 17, 2019, while the M40 was unveiled on June 11, 2019.

Hardware
The Samsung Galaxy A60 and M40 have a 6.3-inch FHD+ (1080×2340) PLS-TFT Infinity-O Display with a circular cutout for the front camera, similar to the Galaxy S10. The phones have 4 GB and 6 GB RAM versions (6 GB only for the A60), and have 64 GB or 128 GB of internal storage that is expandable to 512 GB via the microSD card slot. The phones measure 155.3 mm × 73.9 mm × 7.9 mm (6.11 in × 2.91 in × 0.31 in) and weigh 168 g, featuring a 3500 mAh battery.

The phones also have a dual-SIM slot and supports 15 W charging using Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 over USB-C.

Camera
The phones have a triple-lens camera consisting of a 32 MP f/1.7 wide-angle lens, 8 MP f/2.2 ultra-wide angle lens, and a 5 MP 3D depth sensor.

The triple-lens camera can create a bokeh effect through the 3D depth sensor. There is a 16 MP f/2.0 selfie camera. The camera also has Samsung's scene optimizer technology that recognizes 20 different scenes and automatically adjusts the camera.

The phones also can record 4K video through the camera application.

Software
The Samsung Galaxy A60 and M40 run on Android Pie with Samsung's One UI skin that repositions the touch area in stock Samsung apps towards the bottom, making the interface easier for one handed use with a large screen. Features include Bixby, Google Assistant, Samsung Health, and Samsung Pay, although the Bixby button is not included.

Reception
The A60 and M40 received mixed reviews. SamMobile praised the design, performance and battery life, but lamented the lack of a 3.5 mm headphone jack and the usage of an LCD panel rather than an AMOLED while criticizing the price, concluding that the M40 "is a phone that shouldn't really exist" as a higher priced alternative to the A50. It also noted that the video recording was a strong point along with the ultra-wide lens, but the cameras struggled in low-light. The software was criticized for lacking features as well. GSMArena gave both a 3.3/5, having similar complaints about the camera and display.

Syahrul Yasin Limpo

Syahrul Yasin Limpo (born 16 March 1955) is an Indonesian politician, who served as Minister of Agriculture in Joko Widodo's Onward Cabinet from October 2019 until the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) announced his involvement in alleged corruption in September 2023. He was governor of South Sulawesi from 2008 to 2018.

He moved from Golkar to Nasdem led by Surya Paloh in March 2018.

Political career
In 2016, Limpo ran for the leadership of the Golkar Party but lost to Setya Novanto. After a 2017 meeting with Imam Muhammad ibn Saud Islamic University rector Sulaiman ibn Abdullah Abalkhail, Limpo helped facilitate the opening of a Saudi-funded university in South Sulawesi.

In 2017, Limpo oversaw a controversial project in the province to create five artificial islands to increase public space at Makassar. Opposition came from environmental organizations which filed a lawsuit and local fishermen who attempted to physically block the construction, claiming the project would deplete fish stocks.

On 2 September 2022, Riezky Aprilia was reported to the Honorary Court of the DPR (MKD) for remarking to the Minister of Agriculture, Limpo, that he was taking the "wrong medicine" during a work meeting. She criticised him and then provided him with an explanation of her remarks, acknowledging that she had just used language rhetorical methods to show her disdain for him.

Involvement in Corruption Case
Corruption Eradication Commission announced his involvement in alleged corruption on 29 September 2023. At the time of his announcement, he was on an official trip to Italy and Spain. Deputy Minister of Agriculture, Harvick Hasnul Qolbi, revealed that Limpo separated from the Ministry of Agriculture entourage after learning his status after KPK announced him as a suspect. As revealed by the Directorate General of Immigration, his official trip supposedly ended on 30 September 2023, and he should return on 1 October 2023. Since he had not returned after the trip, he was declared missing. His disappearance was eventually confirmed by Yasonna Laoly, who oversees the Directorate General of Immigration's operations. Laoly expressed that his ministry was not responsible for bringing Limpo back, but the Police and KPK would handle his return.

Since his disappearance, Surya Paloh, requested him to return immediately and to cooperate with law enforcement. Limpo eventually returned and reported himself to Paloh and expected to report himself to Joko Widodo on 5 October 2023. Nasdem Party confirmed that Limpo resigned from his post as minister on 5 October 2023. Limpo reported himself to Ministry of the State Secretariat on the same day submitted his resignation according to the protocol, ending his tenure as minister. On 6 October 2023, Limpo replaced with Arief Prasetyo Adi, Head of Indonesian National Food Agency, as acting minister.

On 11 July 2024, he was sentenced to 10 years imprisonment in a corruption case, with IDR 300 million in fines and replacement money totaling IDR 14,147,144,786 (IDR 14.1 billion) and USD 30,000.

Talk:David Pratt (Canadian broadcaster)

Self promotion
This article seems to be nothing more than shameless self promotion, and seems to be written either by Pratt or a close friend, ie. Don Taylor. Take this line, for example, "Pratt is single and has a reputation as a ladies man around the Vancouver nightlife." If you ever listen to or watch Pratt and Taylor it seems that Don is simply saying this as a joke rather than with any seriousness and thus this "reputation" is more rumor or a running joke than fact. Then you have this line "the ever-popular Don Taylor." According to whom or what? Pratt may be knowledgeable about sports but when it comes to real world issues such as politics, he is out of his element. Yet, Pratt, and often Taylor, will rant about deep topics in the most shallow of manners as if on a high horse, displaying their complete ignorance about that which they are discussing. Further, Pratt and Taylor regularly objectify women on their show, talking about women with whom they would like to have sex and demeaning women whom they find unattractive. Favorite women they attack are Yoko Ono and Hillary Clinton.

Arthur Wathen

Arthur Cave Wathen (27 March 1841 – 14 March 1937) was an English school teacher and amateur cricketer. Wathen was a right-handed batsman who fielded occasionally as a wicket-keeper during the 1860s.

Life
Wathen was born at Streatham, then in Surrey, in 1841, the son of Hubert and Harriet Wathen. His father was a tea merchant in London and was the Master of the Worshipful Company of Mercers in 1850. Wathen was educated at Blackheath Proprietary School before going up to Wadham College, Oxford in 1859.

Wathen played club cricket for Surrey sides in 1861 whist at university, and played his first first-class cricket match for the Gentlemen of the South against the Gentlemen of the North at Trent Bridge in the same year, scoring 42 runs on his debut. The family lived at Beckenham in Kent and Wathen played most of his cricket for the Gentlemen of West Kent, as well as playing for other amateur sides, including the Gentlemen of Kent, Band of Brothers and Reigate Priory. He played for Kent County Cricket Club in nine first-class matches in 1863 and 1864, scoring a total of 147 runs at an average of 8.64, with a high score of 42 not out. He also made three first-class appearances for the Gentlemen of Kent during Canterbury Cricket Weeks, playing twice against the Gentlemen of the MCC in 1863 and 1864, as well against MCC in 1866, playing some matches alongside his brother William.

After 1871 Wathen moved from Beckenham to run a school on Chesham Place in Brighton. He married Agnes Richardson in 1883 and lived in Brighton for most of the remainder of his life. Despite being a teacher, he was a member of the Worshipful Company of Mercers and was given the Freedom of the City of London, both through his family connections.

Wathen died in 1937 at a nursing home at Bradfield in Berkshire. He was aged 97.

Talk:Wellington City Council

Fixing Wellington article and Wellington City article
Two articles about Wellington City? a short one with the correct name and a long one with the short form, that is ambiguous? The legal geographic situation is that Wellington City exist as multiple areas of meshblocks and area units, and Wellington Region exists as an aggregate of 8 multiple T/A's. Wellington Suburb is newly proclaimed by Wellington City Council, and shouldn't offer any issues. Greater Wellington is an aggregate of 4 T/A's ( a community of common interest). I suggest that we have 4 articles, with each one appearing on the Wellington disambiguation page, but I imagine you will collectively prefer longer names: Wellington Region, New Zealand or something like that? please comment before this escalates too far. moza 16:50, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

merger with Suburbs of Wellington
seems a bit superfluous to have this article with a listing of Wellington suburbs and a separate article that says the same thing; I think to make the topic less fractured, the best thing to do is just bring the suburb map across to this article. Kripto 03:33, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Map
Where did the suburb boundaries come from? I grew up in the eastern suburbs and most of what is labelled Melrose I would say is Kilbirnie or Lyall Bay. Also, Moa Point (as a suburb rather than a geographical feature) should go round the coast as far as the airport. --Helenalex 21:24, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
 * it's (a) a bit bewildering, (b) pointless, (c) imposing, in the sense of people who smoke at bus stops, not in the sense of Mt Rushmore, and (c) the kind of thing that looks like someone was paid a lot of money to do something unneccessary, yeah? Yeah. Then you won't be surprised to learn this is the work of the Wellington City Council. This is their official suburb map. Kripto 21:37, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Misleading title
This article is about Wellington City. It is not about Wellington City Council. The word council should be removed. This is part of a patten of deception where searching for Wellington lands users on a page about Wellington urban region that includes several adjacent cities in an attempt to inflate the size/importance of Wellington. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 19:51, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

No mention of City Housing?
Hi, I came here to find out which councillor is currently in charge of City Housing, and was disappointed to see that not only is it not listed (or clearly indicated) on the Council's own list of portfolios, but City Housing isn't mentioned on the article at all! Seems an important insight given that housing provision is one of the Council's most important and notable activities?

I Believe (Fantasia song)

"I Believe" is the debut single of American Idol third season winner Fantasia. The song was co-written by Louis Biancaniello, Sam Watters, and former American Idol contestant Tamyra Gray. Released in the United States on June 15, 2004, "I Believe" debuted at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, selling 142,000 copies during its first week and winning three Billboard awards. The song also reached number one on the Canadian Singles Chart and number four on Australia's ARIA Singles Chart. It was included on Fantasia's debut album, Free Yourself, released on November 23, 2004.

Background
Fantasia sang "I Believe" on the third-season finale of American Idol as her last performance within the competition. Diana DeGarmo, the runner up of American Idol, sang the song first on the finale, for her first performance of the night. The judges unanimously acclaimed Fantasia the winner, a prediction that came true when she was crowned the following evening. An ecstatic and tearful Fantasia performed her new single "I Believe" minutes after the announcement. DeGarmo's performance was also well received by the judges.

Release and commercial performance
"I Believe" was released in the United States on June 15, 2004, as a CD single and 7-inch single. The song debuted on the US Billboard Hot 100 at number one, staying there for one week. During its debut week, the single sold 142,000 copies, making it the second debut solo single by a female artist to commence its chart run at number one, following Lauryn Hill's "Doo Wop (That Thing)". It has sold 527,000 copies in the United States as of 2009. "I Believe" was the winner of two Billboard Music Awards and one Billboard American Urban Radio Networks award. In Canada, the song remained atop the Canadian Singles Chart for 10 weeks and was certified double platinum by the Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA), shipping more than 80,000 units.

Outside North America, "I Believe" charted in Australia, New Zealand, and Romania. In Australia, the song was issued as a CD single on July 19, 2004. The following week, it debuted at its peak of number four on the ARIA Singles Chart. By doing so, Fantasia became the second American Idol winner to chart in Australia, after Kelly Clarkson debuted on the ARIA chart with "Miss Independent" in 2003. "I Believe" stayed in the top 50 for 11 weeks, ending 2004 as Australia's 85th-best-selling single and earning a gold certification from the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for shipping over 35,000 copies. In New Zealand, the song charted on the RIANZ Singles Chart for five weeks, peaking at number 20 for two weeks in August 2004. On the Romanian Top 100, the single charted for one week, appearing at number 93 on July 19, 2004.

Electronics/Units

These are the units you would find when doing problems in electronics. The majority of these units are named after famous people in the field who either discovered the units or had someone else name the units after them.

One reason people don't understand math or Physics very well is that it literally is Greek to them.

(Do we want these separated from the definitions page? or should we include all of these on the definitions page and just have a separate units page too?)

''My take on the units page is that it is a guide for doing math problems. Imagine doing a math problem and coming across Ξ. That's where the units page comes in handy as you only have to search through a small number of units to find the unit you want. Ideally all the definitions in Units should find their way into the main definitions page.''

''Ok. So we should copy all of these to the definitions page as well? Things like frequency, length, time and wavelength are not units; they should be in the definitions section and not here. Hertz, meters, and seconds are units.''

Ampere, Amp (A): The SI unit for current I. Equals a coulomb (1 C) of charged particles moving past a point in one second (1 s). $$A = \frac{C}{s}$$

Coulomb (C): The SI unit for charge Q. 1 C = 6.24 x 1018 Q

Cycles per second (cps): As the name implies, a measurement of frequency in full cycles of a wave per second. This is equivalent to Hertz, but Hertz is the official unit. The unit cps (or kilocycles, megacycles, etc.) is more often seen in older documents.

Farad (F): The SI unit for Capacitance (C). One Farad equals a capacitor that has a Coulomb (1 C) of charge on it with a voltage separation of a Volt (1 V). $$F = \frac{C}{V}$$

Inductance

Henry (H): The SI unit for inductance. $$H =V \frac{s}{A}$$

Frequency

Hertz (Hz): The SI unit for frequency. One Hz is one cycle per second.

Horse Power (HP): The power a horse can achieve. 1 HP = 746 W

Joule (J): The work required to move a Newton (1 N) a meter (1 m). J = N m

Length: (l): The symbol for distance in meters (m).

Meter (m): The SI unit for distance. The distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 second.

Ohm (Ω): A measure of resistance or impedance. 1 Ohm =

Second (s): The SI unit for time.

SI: The standard system of units.

Time (t): The symbol for time in seconds (s).

Volt (V): A potential due to an electric field. $$V = \frac{C}{J}$$

Watt (W): A measure of power (P). A Watt is a Joule (1 J) of work done in a second (1 s). $$W = \frac{J}{s}$$

Wavelength (λ): The distance between two peaks of a cycle.

Moshe ben Machir

Moshe ben Machir (or Moshe ben Yehudah haMachiri) was rabbi and kabbalist of Safed who lived in the 16th century. He is primarily known as the author of the book Seder haYom, source of the Modeh Ani prayer.

Biography
He was the head of a yeshiva in Ein Zeitim, just north of Safed. There survive fundraising letters the yeshiva sent abroad between 1598 and 1601, which show it to have the typical structure of a Sephardic yeshiva from this period, with a circle of talmidei hachamim led by a rabbi known as the "Rishon" (first) or "Hacham" (wise one). From the letters and from a manuscript of the yeshiva's rules, it can be seen that the yeshiva was influenced by the intensely spiritual atmosphere and messianic tension which prevailed among the Jews of Safed in that period, and put a focus on repentance and ascetic practices. Unlike other nearby scholarly circles (like those of rabbis Shlomo Alkabetz, Isaac Luria, Hayyim Vital, and Elazar Azikri), his yeshiva focused on traditional study of Talmud and halacha rather than mystical secrets.

The manuscript of the yeshiva's rules contains ten rules. One rule established shifts so that Torah would be studied in the yeshiva at all hours of day and night. Another specified regular visits to the grave of Rabbi Judah bar Ilai to pray "for all Israel".

The yeshiva apparently was located in Ein Zeitim starting in the Hebrew year 5342 (1582), and relocated to Safed after being threatened by a "band of Ishmaelites" in 1601.

Seder haYom
Seder haYom is a halachic-kabbalistic work which describes, according to its introduction, "the order one should follow in his days and nights, on Shabbats and holidays, the order of the entire year when sitting at home and walking on the way, when retiring and rising". It was first printed in 1599 in Venice, and again in 1605 in Venice. It is the source of many currently practiced customs, including the Modeh Ani prayer.

2019 World Athletics Championships – Men's 400 metres

The men's 400 metres at the 2019 World Athletics Championships was held at the Khalifa International Stadium in Doha on 1, 2 and 4 October 2019. The winning margin was 0.67 seconds which as of 2024 is the greatest winning margin in the men's 400 metres at these championships since the retirement of Michael Johnson.

Summary
Kirani James had the pedigree -- a World Championship and an Olympic gold medal -- but those were back in 2011 and 2012. He finished second behind Wayde van Niekerk's world record at the last Olympics. Van Niekerk couldn't be here because he ruined his knee in a celebrity rugby game and James was battling Graves' disease, the same ailment that affected Gail Devers. With a faster personal best, American champion Fred Kerley had been anticipated as USA's next golden boy until Michael Norman came on the scene with a relaxed, early season personal best that only equalled the #4 time in history. But Norman took himself out of the final, jogging home the second half of his semi-final. The other sub-44 qualifiers were Steven Gardiner, who had run his on this track in May and Akeem Bloomfield, who was the last time qualifier to get in. Gardiner led the qualifying, while Anthony Zambrano had to set a Colombian national record to get in.

In the final, James went out hard, passing Zambrano to his outside as they entered the backstretch. Inside of James, Machel Cedenio, James, Gardiner and Demish Gaye were running true to the stagger. James held that lead until midway through the final turn when he began to fade back as Gardiner was emerging slightly ahead. Coming onto the home straight, Gardiner held a 2 metre lead over James and Kerley, with Cedenio just slightly behind them. A further 2 metres back was Zambrano and Gaye. Down the stretch, Gardiner widened his lead, with Kerley the next best to chase. From far back, Zambrano was in another gear, speeding past Cedenio, James and a metre before the line, Kerley. Gardiner's big win in 43.48 is the #6 time in history. Zambrano's 44.15 set the South American record, beating Sanderlei Parrela's record from the World Championships 20 years earlier.

Records
Before the competition records were as follows:

The following records were set at the competition:

Qualification standard
The standard to qualify automatically for entry was 45.30.

Schedule
The event schedule, in local time (UTC+3), was as follows:

Heats
The first three in each heat (Q) and the next six fastest (q) qualified for the semifinal.

Semi-finals
The first two in each heat (Q) and the next two fastest (q) qualified for the final.

Final
The final was started on 4 October at 22:20.

USS Ahrens

USS Ahrens (DE-575), a Buckley-class destroyer escort of the United States Navy, was named in honor of Private Edward H. Ahrens (1919–1942), who was killed during the Battle of Tulagi and Gavutu–Tanambogo on 8 August 1942. He was posthumously awarded a Navy Cross.

Ahrens was laid down on 5 November 1943 at Hingham, Massachusetts, by the Bethlehem Steel Corporation; launched on 21 December 1943; sponsored by Mrs. Marie Ahrens, the mother of Private First Class Ahrens; and commissioned on 12 February 1944, Lieutenant Commander Morgan H. Hains in command.

Service history
Late in February 1944, Ahrens proceeded to Bermuda for shakedown training. In early April, she sailed to Casco Bay, Maine, for additional training. On 22 April at Norfolk, Virginia, the destroyer escort joined Task Group (TG) 21.11, a hunter/killer group – built around the escort carrier USS Block Island (CVE-21) – which was operating in the Atlantic and Caribbean. On 29 May, the GERMAN SUBMARINE U-549 torpedoed and sank Block Island and USS Barr (DE-576). Ahrens rescued 673 survivors in a period of 40 minutes. While carrying out rescue operations, the ship assisted the destroyer escort USS Eugene E. Elmore (DE-686) in locating the submarine. Eugene E. Elmore made two hedgehog attacks which sank the German submarine.

Following repairs at the New York Navy Yard, the destroyer escort carried out training exercises at Casco Bay and Norfolk, Virginia. On 23 July, Ahrens assumed duty as an escort for transatlantic convoys. The highlight of this period came on 13 October after a merchant ship collided with a gasoline tanker, starting large fires on both ships. Following her rescue of survivors, Ahrens and USS Holton (DE-703) succeeded in putting out the fires.

On 15 December, Ahrens sailed with TG 27.7 to join the 7th Fleet in the Pacific. She proceeded to Manus, Admiralty Islands, via the Panama Canal. On 23 January 1945, the destroyer escort touched at Manus. She continued on to Leyte, Philippines, arriving there on 9 February. The vessel was then attached to TG 75.2 to serve as an ocean escort for the Philippine Sea Frontier.

Ahrens escorted merchant and naval convoys until 25 August 1945, During this period, she operated between such points as Hollandia, New Guinea; Manila and Subic Bay, Philippines; Kossol Roads, Palau Islands; Ulithi; and Okinawa.

In late August 1945, Ahrens was detached from the Philippine Sea Frontier and began supporting occupation forces operating in China and Korea, visiting Jinsen, Korea; Chinwangtao, China; and Hong Kong.

The ship began her long voyage back to the United States on 5 November and stopped at Pearl Harbor; San Diego; and the Panama Canal Zone before finally reaching Boston, Massachusetts, on 15 December. She then commenced pre-inactivation overhaul and sailed to Green Cove Springs, Florida, in early 1946. Ahrens was decommissioned there on 24 June 1946, and her name was struck from the Navy List on 1 April 1965.

Awards
Ahrens won two battle stars for her World War II service.

I added the items in question immediately following transmission of the BBC Four programme mentioned in the article, but finding confirmation on the web, or anywhere else, has proved somewhat difficult. The BBC Four website has no information about the programme that I can find, but there are a couple of sites with reviews of the programme, both of which mention Darien Angadi:

The IMDb page on Darien Angadi (the link is in the article) mentions his suicide but gives no further details. IMDb also has a page on Darien's brother, Shankara, who spoke about Darien in the documentary:

 * http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2310294/

The list of 1962 leavers on the "Old Habs" website lists a Daniel Shankara Angadi, who I assume is Darien's brother, but I haven't found any reference to Darien on the site:

 * http://www.oldhabs.com/Database/1962%20FPframe.html

The edition of Radio Times for the week of transmission of the documentary lists the programme but has no further information.

Talk:Yemeni crisis

Military conflict infobox
I propose removing the military conflict infobox, as it does not adequately summarize the crisis from 2011 to present (for one thing, the Houthis and Saleh were on opposite sides in 2011, while Hadi and Saleh were on the same side; meanwhile, al-Ahmar was on the opposite side as Hadi and Saleh, which de facto put him on the same side as the Houthis) and it mischaracterizes the crisis itself as a military conflict, when the body of the article describes it as a political crisis. We have a perfectly good page and military conflict infobox for the Yemeni Civil War (2015), where it is appropriate. Any objections to this? -Kudzu1 (talk) 00:20, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Temasek-class container ship

The Temasek class a class of container ships consisting of 10 ships in total. The ships were built for APL by Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries.

History
The ships were originally ordered in 2011 by Neptune Orient Lines (NOL). They were to be delivered in 2013 and 2014. Five of the ships were chartered to Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL). Construction started in 2012 and the first ship was delivered on 13 March 2013.

In 2017, around the same time as the first new Triumph-class container ship went into service the charter ended. The ships were renamed and became part of the APL fleet.

In 2018 and 2019, eight of the ships were modified at the Cosco Zhoushan Shipyard and CSIC Qingdao Beihai Shipyard in China. The ships were made longer by adding two extra container bays and the wheelhouse was raised so that the containers can be stacked higher on deck.

Socialist Workers Unification

Socialist Workers Unification (in Spanish: Unificación Obrera Socialista) was a socialist group in Guatemala. The group emerged in 1921. Initially, it used the name Workers Unification (Unificación Obrera). In that year, it organized the first May Day rally in the country.

Some sources claim that the founders of the group were Antonio Obando Sánchez, Alfredo Pellecer and Miguel Mármol. However, this is not confirmed.

After the 1922 coup d'etat of president Orellana, the group was banned. In the same year, the leftist section of the group established the Communist Party of Guatemala.

Cell Biology/Cell types/Prokaryotes

Most of these prokaryotic cells are small, ranging from 1 to 10 microns with a diameter no greater than 1 micron. The major differences between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells are that prokaryotes do not have a nucleus as a distinct organelle and rarely have any membrane bound organelles [mitochondria, chloroplasts, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus, a cytoskeleton of microtubules and microfilaments] (the only exception may be a bacterium discovered to have vacuoles). Both types contain DNA as genetic material, have a surrounding cell membrane, have ribosomes[70 s], accomplish similar functions, and are very diverse. For instance, there are over 200 types of cells in the human body, that vary greatly in size, shape, and function.

Prokaryotes are cells without a distinct nucleus.They have genetic material but that material is not enclosed within a membrane. Prokaryotes include bacteria and cyanophytes. The genetic material is a single circular DNA strand and is located within the cytoplasm. Recombination happens through transfers of plasmids (short circles of DNA that pass from one bacterium to another). Prokaryoytes do not engulf solids, nor do they have centrioles or asters. Prokaryotes have a cell wall made up of peptidoglycan. In majority of prokaryotes, the genome consists of a circular chromosome whose structure includes fewer proteins that found in the linear chromosomes of eukaryotes. Their chromosome is located in the nucleoid, a region of cytoplasm that appears lighter than surrounding cytoplasm in electron micrographs. Also, a single chromosome have much smaller rings of separately replication DNA called plasmids.

Cell Surface
Prokaryotic cell walls maintain cell shape, provide physical protection, and prevents the cell from bursting in a hypotonic environment. In hypertonic environment, most prokaryotes lose water and shrink away from their wall (plasmolyze). The cell walls of prokaryotes differ in molecular composition and construction from those of eukaryotes. The bacterial cell walls contain peptidoglycan, a network of modified-sugar polymers cross linked by short polypeptides. This molecular fabric encloses the entire bacterium and anchors other molecules that extend from its surface. Archaeal cell walls contain a variety of polysaccharides and proteins but lack peptidoglycan.

Gram-positive bacteria have simpler walls with a relatively large amount of peptidoglycan. It has a thick cell wall that traps the crystal violet in the cytoplasm. The alcohol rinse does not remove the crystal violet which masks the added red safanin dye.

Gram-negative bacteria have less peptidoglycan and are structurally more complex, with an outer membrane that contains lipopolysaccharides. It has a thinner layer of peptidoglycan, and it is located in a layer between the plasma membrane and an outer membrane. The crystal violet is easily rinsed from the cytoplasm, and the cell appears pink or red.

The cell wall of many prokaryotes is covered by a capsule, a sticky layer of polysaccharide or protein. The capsule enables prokaryotes to adhere to their substrate or to other individuals in a colony. Some capsules protect against dehydration, and some shield pathogenic prokaryotes from attack by their host's immune system. Some prokaryotes stick to their substrate or to one another by means of hair like protein appendages called fimbriae. They are also known as attachment pili. Fimbriae are usually shorter extension of the plasma membrane.

In uniform environment, flagellated prokaryotes move randomly, but in heterogeneous environment, many prokaryotes exhibit taxis, movement toward or away from a stimulus. For example, prokaryotes that exhibit chemotaxis change their movement pattern in response to chemicals. They move toward nutrients or oxygen (positive chemotaxis) or away from a toxic substance (negative chemotaxis).

Reproduction and Adaptation
Prokaryotes reproduce quickly in a favorable environment. By binary fission, a single prokaryotic cell divid into 2 cells, which then divide into 4, 8, 16, and on. Under optimal conditions, many prokaryotes can divide every 1-3 hours. However the cells eventually exhaust their nutrient supply, poison themselves with metabolic wastes, face competition from other microorganisms, or are consumed by other organisms. The prokaryotes are small, they reproduces by binary fission, and they have short generation times. The ability of some prokaryotes to withstand harsh conditions also contributes to their success. Certain bacteria develop resistant cell called endospores when an essential nutrient is lacking. The original cell produces a copy of its chromosome and surrounds it with a tough wall, forming the endospore. Water is removed from the endospore, and its metabolism halt. The rest of the original cell then disintegrates, leaving the endospore behind. Most endospore are so durable that they can survive in boiling water. In less hostile environments, endospore can remain dormant but viable for centuries, able to rehydrate and resume metabolism when their environment improves.

Due to their short generation times, prokaryotic populations can evolve substantially in short periods of time. The ability of prokaryotes to adapt rapidly to new conditions highlights the fact that although the structure of their cells is simpler than that of eukaryotic cells, prokaryotes are not "primitive" or "inferior" in an evolutionary sense. They are highly evolved, and their population have responded successfully to many different types of environmental challenges.

Rapid reproduction and mutation In sexually reproducing species, the generation of a novel allele by a new mutation is rare at any particular gene. Instead, most of the genetic variation in sexual populations results from the way existing alleles are arranged in new combinations during meiosis and fertilization. Prokaryotes do not reproduce sexually, so at first glance their extensive genetic variation may seem puzzling.

After repeated rounds of division, most of the offspring cells are genetically identical to the original parent cell; however owing to insertions, deletions, and base-pair substitutions in their DNA, some of the offspring cells may differ genetically. The new mutations, though individually rare, can greatly increase genetic diversity in specie that has short generation times and large population sizes. This diversity, in turn, can lead to rapid evolution: individuals that are genetically better equipped for their local environment tend to survive and reproduce more prolifically than less fit individuals.

Transformation and Transduction
In transformation, the genotype and possible phenotype of a prokaryotic cell are altered by the uptake of foreign DNA from its surroundings. For example, bacteria from a harmless strain of Streptococcus pneumonia can be transformed to pneumonia-causing cells if they are placed into a medium containing dead, broken-open cells of the pathogenic strain. This transformation occurs when a live nonpathogenic cell takes up a piece of DNA carry the allele for pathogenicity. The foreign allele is then incorporated into the cell's chromosome, replacing the existing nonpathogenic allele- an exchange of homologous DNA segments. The cell is now a recombinant: Its chromosome contains DNA derived from two different cells.

In transduction, bacteriophage carries bacterial genes from one hose cell to another; transduction is a type of horizontal gene transfer. For most phages, transduction results from accidents that occur during the phage reproductive cycle. A virus that carries bacterial DNA may not be able to reproduce because it lacks its own genetic material. However, the virus may be able to attach to another bacterium (a recipient) and inject the piece of bacterial DNA acquired from the first cell (the donor). Some of this DNA may subsequently replace the homologous region of the recipient cell's chromosome by DNA recombination. In such a case, the recipient cell's chromosome becomes a combination of NA derived from two cells; genetic recombination has occurred.

 Conjugation and Plasmids In a process called conjugation, genetic material is transferred between two bacterial cells ( of same or different species) that are temporarily joined. The DNA transfer is one way: One cell donates the DNA, and the other receives it. The donor uses sex pili to attach to the recipient. After contacting a recipient cell, each sex pilus retracts, pulling the two cells together, much like a grappling hook. A temporary "mating bridge" then forms between the two cells, providing an avenue for DNA transfer. In most cases, the ability to form sex pili and donate DNA during conjugation results from the presence of a particular piece of DNA called the F factor. The F factor consists about 25 genes, most required for the production of sex pili. The F factor can exist either as a plasmid or as a segment of DNA within the bacterial chromosome.

The F factor in its plasmid form is called F plasmid. Cells containing the F plasmid, designated F+ cells, function as DNA donors during conjugation. Cells lacking the F factor, designated F-, function as DNA recipients during conjugation. The F+ condition is transferable in the sense that an F+ cell converts and F- cell to F+ is a copy of the entire F+ plasmid is transferred.

Chromosomal genes can be transferred during conjugation when the donor cell's F factor is integrated into the chromosome. A cell with the F factor built into its chromosome is called an Hfr cell. Like an F+ cell, an Hfr cell functions as a donor during conjugation with an F- cell. When chromosomal DNA from an Hfr cell enters and F- cell, homologous regions of the HFr and F- chromosomes may align, allowing segments of their DNA to be exchanged. This results in the production of a recombinant bacterium that has genes derived from two different cells- a new genetic cariant on which evolution can act. Though these processes of horizontal gene transfer have so far been studied almost exclusively in bacteria, it is assumed that they are similarly important in archaea.

Diverse nutritional and metabolic adaptations
The mechanisms discussed in the previous section- rapid reproduction, mutation, and genetic recombination- underlie that extensive genetic variation found in prokaryotic populations. This variation is reflected in the nutritional adaptations found in prokaryotes. Like all organisms, prokaryotes can be categorized by their nutrition; how they obtain every and the carbon used in building the organic molecules that make up cells. Nutritional diversity is greater among prokaryotes than among eukaryotes: Every type of nutrition observed in eukaryotes is represented among the prokaryotes, along with some nutritional modes unique to prokaryotes. Phototrophs are the organisms that obtain energy from light. Chemotrophs are the organisms that obtain energy from chemicals. Organisms that need only an inorganic compound are called autotrophs. Heterotrophs require at least one organic nutrient to make other organic compounds. Combining these possibilities for energy sources and carbon sources results in four major modes of nutrition.

 Photoautotrophs: photosynthetic organisms that capture light energy and use it to drive the synthesis of organic compounds and other inorganic carbon compounds. Cyanobacteria and many other groups of prokaryotes are photoautotrophs, as are plants and algae.

Chemoautotrophs: also need only an inorganic compound; however, instead of using light as an energy source, they oxidize inorganic substance, such as hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, or ferrous ions. This mode of nutrition is unique to certain prokaryotes.

Photoheterotrophs: Harness energy from light but must obtain carbon in organic form. This mode is unique to certain marine and halophilic (salt-loving) prokaryotes.

Chemoheterotrphs: must consume organic molecules to obtain both energy and carbon. This nutritional mode is widespread among prokaryotes. Fungi, animals, most protists, and even some parasitic plants are also chemoheterotrophs.

The Role of Oxygen In Metabolism
Prokaryotic metabolism also varies with respect to oxygen. Obligate aerobes use oxygen for cellular respiration and cannot grow without it. Obligate anaerobes, however, are poisoned by oxygen. Some obligate anaerobes live exclusively by fermentation; other extract chemical energy by anaerobic respiration, in which substance other than oxygen such as nitrate ions or sulfate ions accept electrons at the "downhill" end of electron transport chains. Facultative anaerobes use oxygen if it is present but can also carry out anaerobic respiration or fermentation in an anaerobic environment.

 Nitrogen Metabolism Nitrogen is essential for the production of amino acids and nucleic acids in all organisms. Whereas eukaryotes can obtain nitrogen from only a limited group of nitrogen compounds, prokaryotes can metabolize nitrogen in a wide variety of forms. For example, some cyanobacteria and some methanogens covert atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia, a process called nitrogen fixation. The cells can then incorporate this "fixed" nitrogen into amino acids and other organic molecules. In terms of their nutrition, nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria are some of the most self-sufficient organisms, since they need only light, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, water and some minerals to grow. Nitrogen fixation by prokaryotes has a large impact on other organisms. For example, nitrogen -fixing prokaryotes can increase the nitrogen but can use the nitrogen compounds that the prokaryotes produce from ammonia.

 Metabolic Cooperation Cooperation between prokaryotes allows them to use environmental resource they could not use as individual cells. In some cases, this cooperation takes place between specialized cells of a colony. For instance, the cyanobacterium Anabaena has genes than encode proteins for photosynthesis and for nitrogen fixation, but a single cell cannot carry out both processes at the same time. The reason is that photosynthesis produces oxygen which inactivates the enzymes involved in nitrogen fixation. Instead of living as isolated cells, anabaena forms filamentous colonies synthesis while a few specialized cells called heterocytes carry out only nitrogen fixation. Each heterocyte is surrounded by a thickened cell wall that restricts entry of oxygen produced by neighboring photosynthetic cells. Intercellular connections allow heterocytes to transport fixed nitrogen to neighboring cells and to receive carbohydrates.

Metabolic cooperation between different prokaryotic species often occurs in surface-coating colonies known as biofilms. Cells in a biofilm secrete signaling molecules that recruit nearby cells, causing the colonies to grow. The cells also produce proteins that stick the cells to the substrate and on to another. Channels in the biofilm allow nutrients to reach cells in the interior and wastes to be expelled. Biofilm damage industrial and medical equipment, contaminate products, and contribute to tooth decay and more serious health problems. In another example of cooperation between prokaryotes, sulfate-consuming bacteria coexist with methane-consuming archaea in ball- shaped aggregates on the ocean floor. The bacteria appear to use the archaea's waste products, such as organic compounds and hydrogen. In turn, the bacteria produce compounds that facilitate methane consumption by the archaea. This partnership has global ramifications.

Kim Sun-hee

Kim Sun-hee (born 1969) is a South Korean government official currently serving as the 3rd Deputy Director of National Intelligence Service (NIS) - the first woman to lead the agency since in its near 60 years of history.

In detail Kim is the first woman to become its deputy head and to assume a vice-ministerial post in the NIS. Her promotion represents structural reforms the agency took under new Director Park Jie-won where its 3rd Deputy deals with science information and cyber security whilst its 1st deputy manages threats from North Korea and overseas and its 2nd deputy international terrorism and industrial espionage.

In May 2022 Kim represented her agency at the flag raising ceremony celebrating Korea becoming newest member of NATO's CCDCOE.

Before promoted to its deputy, Kim was the head of its information education centre. Previously, Kim led its internal affairs bureau and cyber policy division. Kim first joined the agency through the state exam.

Kim holds two degrees - a bachelor in German language and literature from Kyungpook National University and a master's in international relations from Korea University.

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

Reviewer: Kingsif (talk · contribs) 02:46, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I'll be reviewing this and should get comments here soon Kingsif (talk) 02:46, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Many thanks for taking this on. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:07, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

Style

 * I don't think there needs to be certain examples in the lead, so the "as different as the Kut ritual of Korea and among the San of Southern Africa" and "including Sufi dervishes; from Nigeria, Morocco, Ghana, and Senegal, and the Candomble of Brazil, derived from African traditions" - is there any reason to highlight a few and not others?
 * removed.

 * Wine and emotions don't need wikilinks
 * removed, though ecstasy may well need explanation.

 * The Diversity section is just Different forms; the section could be renamed this (or something more accurate to its content) but would still need to be heavily rewritten to not just be "In X documentary these forms are listed" - also, DVD is a viewing form, not a genre of presumably documentary.
 * Renamed, repositioned.

 * The use of "For example..." isn't a great signpost (and, in terms of coverage, is a giant flag that this isn't comprehensive)
 * removed; and misleading, it was just a connective.

 * Shamanism section structured poorly and about 50% quotation.
 * Edited. It now just says that Berggren relates ED to shamanism, i.e. it's a near neighbour to this article; that may be all we should say on the matter.

 * No real connecting structure between anything, throughout
 * Reorganised. The main challenge is the 'Religious and traditional' where a list is more or less inevitable, given independent traditions around the world. We could use a table for this; academic connecting threads might be found, but of course any such theory would just be one scholar's point of view, while the traditions are undeniable.

 * Hellenic section needs better separation of what is mythology and what was enacted by real people
 * Separated and reworded.

 * Hindu section largely quote, but also includes "furiously wild but innocently playful" in Wikipedia voice (i.e. not attributed), which is quite a strong description to not come from a source
 * Trimmed.

 * Does the Hindu section not belong under religious? Because the source about the real followers doing it is from 1992, so it also doesn't seem ancient.
 * Moved.

 * Fail - evident that needs a lot of rewriting and some more thought on structure
 * Article looking better from a glance; I can re-read it soon and provide any more feedback. Haven't looked at in terms of coverage since first review. Kingsif (talk) 20:22, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Coverage

 * Lead about right length for article
 * Thanks.

 * Ecstasy section is two brief sentences. I would expect some detail about researching experiences of ecstasy both dance and not, and some coverage of how it can be expressed through dance in traditions and individual. Or for the section to not exist.
 * Extended.

 * Diversity section also doesn't discuss diversity but list different examples.
 * Moved: no diversity section.

 * Having Shamanism under ancient seems inaccurate, given the fact it still exists and the first sentence acknowledges this.
 * Moved.

 * Shamanism section very brief
 * The subject of another article. I'll think about this one: it's both a major subject obviously related, and straying from our scope.

 * Hellenic section has low but probably sufficient detail on the Maenads. Everything after these first two sentences are only brief mentions of many other groups, i.e. 5 sentences devoted to 8 different groups and their practices.
 * Groups about which little is known, especially of what their ecstatic dances may have consisted of; at least with the Maenads we have the described circumstantial details which are suggestive of ecstasy.
 * When faced with this, including in the text that little is known does give more information (knowing that there's little known is still something that is known) Kingsif (talk) 20:36, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Good idea. Said so.

 * Hindu section also is about mythology and is a brief (and quotation) description of what has been called an ecstatic dance.
 * Trimmed.

 * Fail - minimal coverage that is not sufficient to cover the topic in any part of the article
 * Well obviously I don't agree. Clearly we can beef up some topics if need be.
 * Yes, from my view, ecstatic dance is something with a lot of history and research - a few recent quotations and most forms only getting a line saying "X culture did Y" isn't a good article. It's harder with the coverage of other articles, but this should be comprehensive overview that gives sufficient information without reading the other pages. Kingsif (talk) 20:34, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I've mentioned connecting threads above; this needs thinking about.

Illustration

 * Article looks messy, a result of many images and short sections
 * See next.

 * Probably a few too many images overall
 * Not a GA criterion; and easily fixed. I see it has made a bad impression out of proportion to what is actually a minor issue. Regrouped.

 * Two lead images; should only be one
 * Ideally leave the map, rather than the vase
 * Moved it.

 * The map, however, suggests there is no ecstatic dance in Europe at all. That seems wrong. Especially since Europe is mentioned in the article.
 * No, it already shows the Anesteria. But I'll have another look for others.

 * The Shakers image, the Kouretes image, and the Tantric union image are used even though they depict dances only briefly mentioned in their respective sections; non-indicative uses
 * The reorg has probably solved this.

 * San bushmen image is of rock art from a group that has an ecstatic dance, which is tangential at best
 * Removed. In the eye of the beholder; a powerful image.

 * No mention of Mississipi culture and yet it still gets an image, in the Effects section, no less
 * Reorganised.

 * Fail - too many images, which are also poorly laid out and in several cases not appropriate uses, possible inaccuracy in map
 * Disproportionate.
 * 6b: "Any images used should be appropriate to the article", 1b: "coherent formatting, good organization of the article into sections, appropriate use of wikilinks, and other aspects of the Manual of Style referred to in the Good article criteria" and MOS:IMAGERELEVANCE disagree. Images should be illustrative and are part of the layout, which I have assessed here rather than in Style because it puts all the image-related comments together (sans copyright issues, for obvious reasons). If the use of images makes the layout poor, that's within GA criteria. And of course, if it fails illustration, it has failed that section; I wouldn't fail a GAN just on that, given the typical ease to clean up images. Kingsif (talk) 20:15, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I've reorganised them, something that took just a few minutes. The map isn't in error though I'll double up the Shamanism label to span Europe.

Neutrality

 * Seems to put more weight than appropriate on 5Rhythms - it is given much more information than any other form, despite being non-traditional and 20th century.
 * Well, the form was essentially dead in the West, and it's now vibrant, so perhaps she had some importance. I've cut the section down.

 * Fail
 * This was fixed in a few minutes.
 * Yes. I didn't say every section that failed couldn't be quickly fixed. Kingsif (talk) 20:18, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Verifiability

 * Sources look generally reliable
 * Several are primary sources but generally paired with another source for info+verifiable, so should be ok
 * Everything cited in line
 * Pass

Stability

 * some vandalism in May but hasn't reappeared
 * Pass

Copyright

 * Check looks fine
 * Images all free
 * Pass

Overall

 * Symbol oppose vote.svg It is evident at this point, after giving the article a few reads and then making notes in detail on about half, that this is far from being a GA. The notes made in Style and Coverage are applicable to improving the whole article; the first issue is that it does not cover anything to a good level except maybe 5Rhythms, which also appears as a point of likely bias (on my first reading, the article seemed to be built around this and favor it). It is not structured well and does not have connecting language between paragraphs and sections. Even some sentences do not seem to relate to each other. Images are used too heavily and inappropriately. There appear to be some factual inaccuracies, and areas where the article contradicts itself. Much of the article is little more than listing some examples of ecstatic dances, not even sectioned off well. I'd honestly assess this just about C-class. I know there will be a lot of coverage of ecstatic dance, it is an extensive topic, and also think that some of the sources already in the article are not used as well as they could be (i.e. you can get more content for the article out of their information). When improved, I'll happily review it again, but for now, this is not close to being a GA and needs that significant improvement throughout. Kingsif (talk) 18:24, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Ah, perhaps things are different down your way. I'm completely familiar with working through even major changes during a GAN process, the obvious advantage being that there's an ongoing dialogue to assist any tricky changes. However, I may take you up on your offer to review it again if that's your preferred approach. Meanwhile, many thanks for the detailed suggestions, which I'll follow carefully. Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:08, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * , I'd usually go through the nom, but I see almost a complete re-write needed. I'll review it again, of course; and, if you want to keep up a dialogue when editing, I will also be available for that. I can add the article to my watchlist if you want extra suggestions :) Kingsif (talk) 19:19, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Ok. Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:24, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Article still needs some tightening where parts have been moved around/tweaked, and if there's more coverage that would be great because I still think this is a very broad topic, but it's looking much better; I can only say that your work at improving is much stronger than I expected (based on some other GA reviews). So now, I honestly think we could work together and get this through. I'm not sure if there's a procedure for overturning your own GA fail or if you can quickly renominate this. Kingsif (talk) 17:12, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Many thanks. I realised I hadn't looked at Oesterley, so I've added a fair bit from him. I'm looking at other research on Scholar and JSTOR but there really isn't a huge amount; I think it was quite fashionable in academic circles in the 1920s but not a lot after that until the recent interest in trance dance which isn't quite the same thing. There is no obstacle to my renominating within the GA rules, so I'll do that now. Chiswick Chap (talk) 18:15, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

Australian Wine Research Institute

The Australian Wine Research Institute (AWRI) is a research institute with a focus on Australian wine, based in Adelaide, South Australia.

Location
It is based at the Wine Innovation Cluster, situated in the Waite Research Precinct, in the Adelaide suburb of Urrbrae, South Australia.

History
The institute was established in 1955 at the Waite campus of the University of Adelaide. It is funded by grape growers and wineries. Its first scientific chief was John Fornachon. An early researcher was Bryce Rankine, who later taught at the Roseworthy College, an oenology institution. The primary aim of the institute in the 1950s was to create good Australian table wines as opposed to traditional fortified wines.

Research done by the institute has looked at "oxidation, hazes and deposits caused by trace amounts of iron and copper, and the need for better yeast strains, more effective use of sulphur dioxide, and pH control" as well as "research into new grape varieties".

The institute introduced a calculator for enologists in 2023. The tool assists enologists in determining the adequate amount of additives and aids in the winemaking process,

I changed the class of his degree to 2:1 per the Bradford City Museum profile, but have since come across this Observer Sport Monthly piece which says, rather as an aside, that he got a first.
