California Statehood Act

The California Statehood Act, officially An Act for the Admission of the State of California into the Union and also known as the California Admission Act, is the federal legislation that admitted California to the United States as the thirty-first state. Passed in 1850 by the 31st United States Congress, the law made California one of only a few states to become a state without first being an organized territory.

Name
An Act for the Admission of the State of California into the Union was the formal title given to the Congressional legislation passed by the 31st Congress, and signed by President Millard Fillmore on September 9, 1850, which admitted California as the 31st state to the Union. Per the terms of the Compromise of 1850, California was admitted as a free state. The Act may informally be referred to as the California Statehood Act or the California Admission Act.

Start of Mexican-American War and Bear Flag Revolt
The United States declared war on Mexico on May 13, 1846. After receiving word of the declaration of war, a force consisting mostly of American settlers in California staged a revolt on June 15, 1846 against Mexican authorities, which became known at the Bear Flag Revolt. They overwhelmed and captured the small Mexican garrison at Sonoma and declared the California Republic (Spanish: La República de California), or Bear Flag Republic, raising the original Bear State flag over the captured garrison. Their control was largely restricted to the area around Sonoma, California and lasted for 25 days. On July 5, 1846, Brevet Captain John C. Frémont assumed control of the republic's forces and integrated them into his California Battalion. On July 9, 1846, Navy Lieutenant Joseph Warren Revere arrived in Sonoma and replaced the Bear Flag with the flag of the United States, formally declaring the United States possession of California.

End of Mexican-American War
The Mexican–American War ended with the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848. In the treaty, Mexico ceded a large portion of northern Mexico in what is now the southwestern United States. With the acquisition of the large territory, Congress began debating how to organize it. Initially, there was no cause to rush the organization, as the territory was sparsely populated. However, with the discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill, California, a large migration of Americans began, as well as an influx of new immigrants from Europe and Asia seeking to find gold or provide goods and services to those seeking gold. The migration gave rise to the immediate necessity of organizing the territory to provide services such as recording land deeds and claims, providing court services and law enforcement, and organizing local governments.

Admission debate
The issue of the expansion or restriction of slavery was a fundamental dispute in the admission of new states to the Union since before the passage of the Missouri Compromise in 1820. The size of the California territory, its natural resources, access to the Pacific, and the speed at which the territory's population was expanding added a special urgency to organizing and admitting California into the Union. Some feared that if the United States did not act swiftly an independence movement could erupt that might sever California from the United States. A fierce debate raged over the status of California and the other territories ceded to the U.S. by Mexico for most of the 31st Congress. General Zachary Taylor, a hero of but also a staunch opponent of the Mexican War, had become President in March 1849. Although Taylor was a southern slaveowner, he believed that slavery was economically unfeasible in the acquired territories and therefore opposed the expansion of slavery as pointless and controversial, which became a serious obstacle impeding agreement in Congress on a solution to the territorial issue. In Taylor's 1849 State of the Union message to Congress, he commented extensively on the issue of California, stating in part,

 The extension of the coast of the United States on the Pacific and the unexampled rapidity with which the inhabitants of California especially are increasing in numbers have imparted new consequence to our relations with the other countries whose territories border upon that ocean. It is probable that the intercourse between those countries and our possessions in that quarter, particularly with the Republic of Chili, will become extensive and mutually advantageous in proportion as California and Oregon shall increase in population and wealth.

…

No civil government having been provided by Congress for California, the people of that Territory, impelled by the necessities of their political condition, recently met in convention for the purpose of forming a constitution and State government, which the latest advices give me reason to suppose has been accomplished; and it is believed they will shortly apply for the admission of California into the Union as a sovereign State. Should such be the case, and should their constitution be conformable to the requisitions of the Constitution of the United States, I recommend their application to the favorable consideration of Congress.

The California Constitution was adopted on November 13, 1849, and Taylor submitted a proposition to admit California as a new state to Congress for debate on February 13, 1850.

Despite outlawing slavery and applying to the Union as a free state, California had elected one anti-slavery and one pro-slavery senator, John C. Frémont and William Gwin, respectively. In a 1949 address, CA state senator Herbert Jones suggests this was done as a compromise to make the state's admission more palatable to the South, but other sources make no such claim.

With the unexpected death of Taylor on July 9, 1850, Vice President Millard Fillmore became President. Although Fillmore was a northerner and was not a slaveholder, he had strong ties to the South and was much more open to a compromise that would allow the extension of slavery into the territories. The change of leadership opened the door for the passage of the Compromise of 1850, crafted by Senator Henry Clay, which allowed the admission of California into the Union without Congress imposing any limitation on the introduction of slavery. However, the Constitution adopted by the California Constitutional Convention in October 1849 in preparation for admission into the Union specifically prohibited slavery in the new state. The compromise was offset by concessions to slave states, including the possible extension of slavery into other territories ceded from Mexico and the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, which stripped the free states of much of their legal ability to protect blacks who were suspected of fleeing slavery from kidnapping by slave catchers and forcible removal to the South.

Clay Resolutions
On January 29, 1850, Senator Clay proposed eight resolutions to end the heated debate over the status of the territories acquired from Mexico. Congress adopted Clay's resolutions, collectively known as the Clay Resolutions, which prepared the way for the passage of the five acts making up the Compromise of 1850. The first resolution concerned the admission of California and reads as follows:

 Resolved, That California, with suitable boundaries, ought, upon her application to be admitted as one of the States of this Union, without the imposition by Congress of any restriction in respect to the exclusion or introduction of slavery within those boundaries.

California Admission Act
The California Admissions Act was the second act of the Compromise of 1850 to be passed by Congress.

The text of the act contained three sections and enacted five main provisions:

 * 1) Admitted California as a full and equal state in the union (Section One).
 * 2) Granted California two seats in the House of Representatives until the next Congressional reapportionment (Section Two).
 * 3) Placed the public land in California into the federal public domain under the sole authority of Congress and outside the authority of California to tax or lay assessments (Section Three).
 * 4) Stipulated that waterways in California would be open to free navigation by all citizens of the United States without the imposition of taxes, duties or fees for usage (Section Three).
 * 5) Declared none of the provisions in the act of admission was to be construed as endorsing or rejecting any provision in the Constitution of California (Section Three).

The final provision in Section Three was intended as a declaration that Congress took no position on the provisions against slavery contained in the California constitution.

The text of An Act For The Admission Of The State Of California Into The Union reads as follows:

 Preamble Whereas the people of California have presented a constitution and asked admission into the Union, which constitution was submitted to Congress by the president of the United States, by message dated February thirteenth, eighteen hundred and fifty, and which, on due examination, is found to be republican in its form of government:

Section 1 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that the state of California shall be one, and is hereby declared to be one, of the United States of America, and admitted into the Union on an equal footing with the original states in all respects whatever.

Section 2 And be it further enacted, that, until the representatives in Congress shall be apportioned according to an actual enumeration of the inhabitants of the United States, the state of California shall be entitled to two representatives in Congress.

Section 3 And be it further enacted, that the said state of California is admitted into the Union upon the express condition that the people of said state, through their legislature or otherwise, shall never interfere with the primary disposal of the public lands within its limits, and shall pass no law and do no act whereby the title of the United States to, and right to dispose of, the same shall be impaired or questioned; and that they shall never lay any tax or assessment of any description whatsoever upon the public domain of the United States, and in no case shall nonresident proprietors, who are citizens of the United States, be taxed higher than residents; and that all the navigable waters within the said state shall be common highways, and forever free, as well to the inhabitants of said state as to the citizens of the United States, without any tax, impost, or duty therefore: provided, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as recognizing or rejecting the propositions tendered by the people of California as articles of compact in the ordinance adopted by the convention which formed the constitution of that state.

Approved, September 9, 1850.

Admission
With the signing of the Compromise of 1850, California was formally admitted to the Union as the 31st state in the Union on September 9, 1850. The United States House of Representatives approved the bill on September 7, 1850 by a vote of 150 to 56. The United States Senate under the careful leadership of Henry Clay and Daniel Webster had previously voted on January 17, 1850 to admit California into the Union by a vote of 48 to 3 and they concurred with the House vote on September 7, 1850.

The territory legislature first met as what would become the legislature of the State of California after admission on December 15, 1849 at the first state capital at San Jose, California. The first American governor of California was Peter Hardeman Burnett, who was inaugurated as the first civilian governor prior to statehood on December 20, 1849 and continued in the position until January 9, 1851. The first two members from California to the United States Senate were San Franciscans John C. Fremont and William M. Gwin, both of whom were members of the Democratic Party and took their oaths of office on September 10, 1850. On September 11, 1850, Edward Gilbert (Democrat) and George W. Wright (Independent) took their oaths of office to become the state’s two Representatives.

California Admission Day
California Admission Day (September 9) is an annual legal holiday in the state, celebrated as a day of observance to commemorate its admission into the Union as the thirty-first state on that date in 1850. The city of Monterey, where the state Constitutional Convention was first held, observes this day as a City holiday, where city offices and most facilities are closed.

Best of Me (Daniel Powter song)

"Best of Me" is a song by Canadian recording artist Daniel Powter from his third studio album Under the Radar (2008). It was released as a CD single and digital download on 24 September 2008 as the second single from the album. The song charted in Switzerland for 3 weeks from 15 February to 1 March 2009. The song was written by Daniel Powter and Kara DioGuardi. It was produced by Linda Perry.

Background
Inspired by the creation of "Best of Me", Daniel Powter said: This song is inspired by a state of maintaining the current state, insisting on the best of me, self-redemption. In Daniel's career, he is always trying to reach the expectations of others. It is very difficult, and people feel that people want to get too much from you. Daniel also mentioned in the interview that this song is the best interpretation of himself.

Credits and personnel

 * Lead vocals – Daniel Powter
 * Producers – Linda Perry
 * Lyrics – Daniel Powter, Kara DioGuardi
 * Label: Warner Bros.

Music video
A music video was made to promote the single. The video was directed by Diane Martel and shows Powter playing with his piano in front of a cinema screen while the background behind him changes constantly. The main contents of the background pictures shown are: old photos, landscapes and some small items that reflect the details of life.

Re-recordings
Powter would later record an alternative version of Best of Me with the lyric "Though it's not your favorite song" changed to "Even if it's not your favorite song" for his greatest hits album named after the song. The alternative version's lyrics would be then used with a slightly different tune and added backing arrangement for the 2012 version on Powter's fourth studio album, Turn on the Lights.

Cover versions
William Chan, a Hong Kong singer, recorded a cover version in Cantonese for his album in 2009. (Chinese name of the song: "今天終於知道錯")

Electronics/Charge

Two atoms are walking down the street. The first atom says to the second atom "I think I lost an electron!" The second says "Are you sure?" To which the first states "I'm positive!"

Balance of Charge
Atoms, the smallest particles of matter, are made of protons, electrons, and neutrons. Protons have a positive charge, Electrons have a negative charge that cancels the proton's positive charge. Neutrons are particles that are similar to a proton but have a neutral charge. There are no differences between positive and negative charges except that particles with the same charge repel each other and particles with opposite charge attract each other. If a solitary positive proton and negative electron are placed near each other they will come together to form a hydrogen atom. This repulsion and attraction (force between stationary charged particles) is known as Electrostatic Force and extends theoretically to infinity, but is diluted with distance.

Both atoms and the universe have a neutral charge overall and come with the same number of protons and electrons. When an atom has one or more missing electrons it is left with a positive charge, and when an atom has at least one extra electron it has a negative charge. Having a positive or a negative charge makes an atom an ion. Atoms only gain and lose protons and neutrons through fusion, fission, and being radioactive. Although atoms are made of many particles and objects are made of many atoms, they behave similar to charged particles in terms of how they repel and attract.

In an atom the protons and neutrons combine to form a tightly bound nucleus. This nucleus is surrounded by a vast cloud of electrons circling it at great distance held near the protons by electromagnetic attraction. The cloud exists as a series of overlapping shells / bands in which the inner valence bands are filled with electrons and are tightly bound to the atom. The outer conduction bands contain no electrons except those that have accelerated to the conduction bands by gaining energy. With enough energy an electron will escape an atom. When an electron in the conduction band decelerates and falls to another conduction band or the valence band emitting an photon, is known as the photoelectric effect.

 * laser: When electrons travel back and forth between conduction bands emitting synchronized photons.

 * 1) When the conduction and valence bands overlap, the atom is a conductor and allows for the free movement of electrons. Conductors are metals and can be thought of as a bunch of atomic nuclei surrounded by a churning "sea of electrons".
 * 2) When there is a large gap between the conduction and valence bands, the atom is an insulator and trap electrons. Insulators are non-metals and are good at stopping the flow of electrons.
 * 3) When there is a small gap between the conduction and valence bands, the atom is a semiconductor. Semiconductors behave like conductors and insulators, and work using the conduction and valence bands. The electrons in the outer valence band are known as holes. They behave like positive charges because of how they flow. In semiconductors electrons collide with the material and their progress is halted. This makes the electrons have an effective mass that is less than their normal mass. In some semiconductors holes have a larger effective mass than the conduction electrons.

Electronic devices are based on the idea of exploiting the differences between conductors, insulators, and semiconductors.

Conductors
In a conductor the electrons of an object are free to move. Due to their repulsive nature the valence electrons leave the center of the object and spread out evenly across its surface in order to be as far apart as possible. This cavity of empty space is known as a Faraday Cage and stops radiation, such as charge, radio waves, and EMPs (Electro-Magnetic Pulses) from entering and leaving the object. If there are holes in the Faraday Cage than radiation can pass.

One of the interesting things to do with conductors is the transfer of charge between metal spheres. At the start the spheres are neutral. The first step involves putting sphere 1 next to but not touching sphere 2. This causes all the electrons in sphere 2 to travel away from sphere 1 to the far end of sphere 2. So sphere 2 now has a negative end filled with electrons and a positive end lacking electrons. Next sphere 2 is grounded by contact with a conductor connected with the earth and the earth takes its electrons leaving sphere 2 with a positive charge. The positive charge (absence of electrons) spreads evenly across the surface due to its lack of electrons.

Insulators
In an insulator the electrons of an object are stuck. This allows charge to build up on the surface of the object by way of the triboelectric effect. The triboelectric effect (rubbing electricity effect) involves the exchange of electrons when two different insulators such as glass, hard rubber, amber, or even the seat of one's pants, come into contact. The polarity and strength of the charges produced differ according to the material composition and its surface smoothness. For example, glass rubbed with silk will build up a charge, as will hard rubber rubbed with fur. The effect is greatly enhanced by rubbing materials together.

 * Van de Graaff Generator: A charge pump (pump for electrons) that generates static electricity. In a Van de Graaff generator, a conveyor belt uses rubbing to pick up electrons, which are then deposited on metal brushes. The end result is a charge difference.

Because the material being rubbed is now charged, contact with an uncharged object or an object with the opposite charge may cause a discharge of the built-up static electricity by way of a spark. A person simply walking across a carpet may build up enough charge to cause a spark to travel over a centimeter. The spark is powerful enough to attract dust particles to cloth, destroy electrical equipment, ignite gas fumes, and create lightning. In extreme cases the spark can destroy factories that deal with gunpowder and explosives. The best way to remove static electricity is by discharging it through grounding. Humid air will also slowly discharge static electricity. This is one reason why cells and capacitors lose charge over time.

Quantity of Charge
Protons and electrons have opposite but equal charge. Because in almost all cases, the charge on protons or electrons is the smallest amount of charge commonly discussed, the quantity of charge of one proton is considered one positive elementary charge and the charge of one electron is one negative elementary charge. Because atoms and such particles are so small, and charge in amounts of multi-trillions of elementary charges are usually discussed, a much larger unit of charge is typically used. The Coulomb is a unit of charge, which can be expressed as a positive or negative number, which is equal to approximately 6.2415×1018 elementary charges. Accordingly, an elementary charge is equal to approximately 1.602 ×10-19 coulombs. The commonly used abbreviation for the Coulomb is a capital C. The SI definition of a Coulomb is the quantity of charge which passes a point over a period of 1 second ( s ) when a current of 1 Ampere ( A ) flows past that point, i. e., C = A s or  A = C/s. An ampere is one of the fundamental units in physics from which various other units are defined, such as the coulomb.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Linda Wenzel

The result was keep.

There seems to be little disagreement she has been the subject of a lot of coverage, not solely by "tabloids". The only major question is whether WP:BLP mandates deletion, especially WP:BLP1E. On the question of BLP in general, especially since she is a minor, there seems to be consensus that the subject is worthy of inclusion and that BLP concerns can be - and mostly have been - fixed by editing and adding better sources.

As for BLP1E, the key is the "E", i.e. "event". The policy does not further elaborate what a "single event" is but defining her being radicalized, joining ISIS and being captured as a single event stretches the word "event" too far. This coincides with the times coverage happened. As Icewhiz pointed out, the first burst of coverage was in 2016. Then there was coverage beginning in July of this year, indicating that reliable sources see these occurences as separate events and per WP:V, this is what should guide the classification. So BLP1E was not a valid reason for deletion. On a side note, BLP1E also requires the person in question to otherwise "likely to remain a low-profile individual" which, as has been pointed out by Icewhiz, is not the case here since - WP:CRYSTAL nonewithstanding - we can actually predict that whatever decision will be made, it will be reported (again, WP:BLP1E requires us to speculate about future events in this case).

As for other deletion arguments, neither WP:SOLDIER nor WP:CRIMINAL need to be met if WP:BASIC or WP:GNG are which is consensus here.

 * Delete -- WP:TOOSOON & WP:BLP1E, plus general BLP concerns with the subject being a minor. Wikipedia is not a newspaper, let alone a tabloid. K.e.coffman (talk) 22:48, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Coverage started in 2016 - when she traveled to the Islamic State via Turkey. She has since apparently also participated in the conflict, and is now facing serious charges which may lead to the death penalty - which would be notably be applied to a post-WW2 German. This has become a diplomatic issue between Iraq and Germany - and is not going away. This is beyond BPL1E - as she is notable both for her online recruitment and conversion to Isalm which lead to travel to the Islamic state, her subsequent activities as an Islamic state adherent, and now the criminal case and diplomacy surrounding her. A redirect to Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant would be grossly out of line - and would conflate a willing adherent facing serious charges with actual victims in Iraq (e.g. Yazidi women whose families' were butchered, while they were "spared" as prizes to be passed between IS fighters as chattel)Icewhiz (talk) 06:41, 19 September 2017 (UTC) In terms of policy, she clearly passes WP:GNG and WP:CRIME, particularly (2) The motivation for the crime or the execution of the crime is unusual—or has otherwise been considered noteworthy—such that it is a well-documented historic event.. Coverage of this individual is enough for notability as is, and is expected to continue.Icewhiz (talk) 06:48, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. I was interested to know about her family and know if she had a conflict in her teenage life . Wikipedia was the best source gathering all info in one place .The article is useful !--Alborz Fallah (talk) 16:24, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * you have been a user for 10 years and I am sure you are familiar with WP:ATA, more specifically WP:ITSUSEFUL. Could you provide a reason to ignore the BLP concerns and the tabloid media coverage? Remember Wikipedia is not a newspaper.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 16:46, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Prior to her capture, serious criminal charges, and becoming a diplomatic chip it was tabloidy coverage (of the ISIS runaway bride). Since her capture, this is being covered in ALL the international news sources and she is being named in all of them. There is no doubt coverage will remain at this level, and she already passes GNG regardless. Her conviction in the Iraqi court is a certainity, the only question is snetencing.Icewhiz (talk) 17:37, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Icewhiz I'm sorry but I'm not interested in your WP:CRYSTALBALLy assertions: "There is no doubt...", according to who? You? Incidents and events are regularly covered in 109 newspapers for some time. Without historical or lasting significance, it's just a (tragic) news story.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 22:26, 19 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep The coverage in reliable sources demonstrate she easily meets WP:GNG. Also meets WP:CRIMINAL. Seems to also be a case of WP:GEOBIAS as Americans who became involved in Islamist extremism such as Douglas McCain, Moner Mohammad Abu Salha and Troy Kastigar have had long-standing articles. AusLondonder (talk) 19:14, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I feel it would be disruptive for me to nominate those pages for deletion now, but I don't see how any of those individuals are notable. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 02:22, 20 September 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Seems to be the type of situation that WP:BLP1E was written for. Teens becomes radicalized and join the jihad every day, but it only breaks the surface of the media cycle when a white and/or Western teen does it. This is an otherwise unknown person, a minor, and is only in the news for one topic. ValarianB (talk) 19:32, 19 September 2017 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  Bobherry Userspace  Talk to me!   Stuff I have done  20:46, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep I created the page, and accepted it's delation up front originally. Though after taking another look at it, it is important to note that she has been consistently covered in credible newspapers, and there is a large amount of information available on her life through articles. It is also important in geopolitical context between German-Iraqi relations.ShimonChai (talk) 01:13, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete she's a 16 year old. She's only "notable" as the result of tabloid-style coverage.  She doesn't meet WP:SOLDIER or anything like that. As far as WP:CRIMINAL, I don't think anything here is historically unusual. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 02:22, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per my points above. Tabloid media coverage and reports WP:ROUTINEly keeping up with the girl is not an indication of notability: Wikipedia is not a newspaper. Some editors may choose to not enforce the NOTNEWS policy this subject falls under; I get it, it's fun to play "journalist" for a little. However, we cannot tolerate the WP:BLP issues or the failure to meet WP:NCRIME.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 02:38, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Weak keep - Tremendous BLP violations but, hey, it does not seem to bother those who want to keep the article. After reading this, I believe there is at least more significance here than the countless articles on minor terrorist attacks that receive a wave of news for a week.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 21:59, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
 * You and I are generally in agreement. If Ms. Menzel had been the one stabbing the Israeli grocer in the 2017 Yavneh attack, and the German government was trying to get her back, I'd have voted keep there also. The international scope makes this more significant. TimTempleton (talk)  (cont)  00:34, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Comment, is there a wikisavvy editor who can inform this discussion of the statistics for readers looking at this page? if this page is deleted it looks like a candidate for a redirect to a page that lists/discusses isis recruits from europe. Coolabahapple (talk) 05:00, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * In the period from creation on 18 August to 17 September (the day before it was nominated here) it was viewed 404 times. So yes, a redirect would certainly be appropriate if she is mentioned anywhere suitable. For most of existence it has been a redirect to Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant but she is not mentioned there (which is why I unredirected it) and Icewizz above notes that this target is inappropriate for other reasons too. Thryduulf (talk) 09:19, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep as her conviction is most likely and this will continue to generate more coverage. I disagree that she is notable for single event. She is notable convert who joined Islamic State and therefore should be kept. This was covered a year ago in different reliable sources including in German media like RTL and others here.  Greenbörg  (talk)  15:18, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment - Multiple users are commenting on tabloid coverage - however besides the face they contribute to notability - this is no longer the case - the article, which is well sourced, is not sourced from tabloids ( there is still one in there - when I get back from vacation - I intend to replace/remove it - it isn't needed for anything ). Since being captured and becoming a diplomatic bargaining chip - at the head of state level (or at least Iraqi head of state) - this is covered by the premier newspapers. Prior to July this year - creation was indeed unwarranted as she was both BPL1E (known for her conversion to IS) and with loads of tabloid coverage (and a little non-tabloid). Since July - the situation has changed markedly. Yes, there are multiple daily mail pieces out there on her (also post July).... But these is also coverage, multiple pieces in different dates in multiple different newspapers covering at least 4 distinct developments of this case. Note she is no longer "just" a runaway bride, but is known to have been part of IS's apparatus (morality brigade) and is now also charged with terrorism/murder (for admitting to being a sniper and killing Iraqi soldiers) - and faces the death penalty - though based on the high talk, I would assume this would averted (to a jail sentence). Executed / Jailed / Released - all would generate more major coverage.Icewhiz (talk) 19:31, 20 September 2017 (UTC) Not back from vacation, but did strike out questionable sources that were reffed - they weren't actually supporting the article (as each bit they supported was reffed from a much better source). Added some Wapo/NYT. Just because tabloids covered something - does not mean that non-tabloid coverage is not there - in this case - it is strongly there from July onward (a bit in 2016 too - but that wouldn't have gotten her over the notability cliff).Icewhiz (talk) 22:01, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep, one of the more notable connections of ISIS to Germany. Certainly seems more important than Articles for deletion/2016 Hanover stabbing, which was almost unanimously kept. —Kusma (t·c) 08:26, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
 * WP:WHATABOUTX, the article should be looked at alone, not compared to others. Ifnord (talk) 18:11, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I am mentioning that other AFD because it came to the wrong conclusion and I couldn't resist bringing it up again. On the general point: while we don't compare articles at AFD, we do use previous AFD outcomes to eventually write notability guidelines, which in turn are used to argue at AFD. —Kusma (t·c) 18:54, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep As User:Icewhiz says, WP:SIGCOV in a wide range of WP:RS media is now more than sufficient to establish notbility.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:11, 24 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep based on the variety of international coverage, and the unique aspect of this being a young German, formerly Christian woman who has reportedly killed people as a sniper, after being radicalized, and is now the subject of diplomatic interest. TimTempleton (talk) (cont)  17:58, 27 September 2017 (UTC)

Botany/Pinophyta

<< Contents Page | Chapter 13 | Chapter 14 | Chapter 15

Chapter 14. Pinophyta

The Division Pinophyta in the Kingdom Plantae comprises those species of plants that were formerly classified as the "modern" gymnosperms of the Class Coniferales—that is the conifers. Unlike many of the gymnosperm groups covered in the previous chapter, pinophytes are today still broadly represented on the landscape, forming extensive forests in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. This does not mean this is a recent group in the paleontological record. Pinophytes are found as fossils as far back as the Upper Carboniferous (Paleozoic Era). Thus, it is a very ancient group, but one still having significant ecological importance on the planet. Pinophytes are mostly evergreen trees (some are shrubs) and many have great commercial value for their wood.

 * Reread Gymnosperm ( Links need not be pursued at this time )
 * Read Conifers ( Links need not be pursued at this time )

These terms, gymnosperm and conifer no longer have standing in modern taxonomic treatments of plants. However, both terms are still widely used, so you should have a grasp of what they mean, and how they fit into the taxonomic terms that have replaced them.

 * Read Division Pinophyta ( The following links are included: )
 * Order Pinales
 * Family Pinaceae ( Follow links to Pinus (pines) and read accounts for each of the Pinus species ) Be sure to read about and understand each of the following terms: softwood, evergreen, pine needle, pine cone, pine nuts, resin, wood pulp, timberline
 * Family Cupressaceae ( Follow links to each of the listed genera and read accounts for each species ) Be sure to read about and understand each of the following terms: Bald Cypress, cypress knees, Giant Sequoia, redwoods, swamp
 * Family Taxaceae ( Follow links to each species ) Be sure to read about and understand each of the following terms: aril, yew, alkaloid

Evolution of the Gymnosperms
Gymnosperms are very different from the earliest vascular plants. Gymnosperms have very reduced gametophyte generations- female ovules and male pollen. Many gymnosperms, like the Pinophytes, have secondary growth from a vascular cambium. While tree ferns are tall and have a trunk resembling a tree, they are only very superficially similar. They do not have woody growth the way trees with secondary growth from a vascular cambium do. A single mutation of a fern or a horsetail could not produce a functioning seed plant. So gymnosperms must be descended from some progymnosperm ancestor that evolved these adaptations from the ferns, but was not fit enough to remain on earth. One possible example of a progymnosperm is the spore bearing woody tree Archaeopteris, which was at one point probably prevalent on earth.

User:Goodbyebluemonday42/Medical Students for Choice

Medical Students for Choice is a US-based non-profit organization affiliated with the abortion rights movement. Medical Students for Choice (MSFC) was founded in 1993 by then medical student Jody Steinauer to ensure that medical students have access to comprehensive information and training regarding abortion procedures and reproductive healthcare. Individual chapters are comprised of medical students, nursing students, public health students, and other pre-professional healthcare students and work towards curriculum reform and in addition run educational extracurricular events. Currently there are 150 MSFC chapters, primarily in the United States but also in Canada, Cuba, Ireland, England, Bulgaria, Israel, India, Lebanon, and the Ukraine.

History
In 1993, an anonymous group sent anti-abortion pamphlets to medical students across the United States. These pamphlets included jokes about murdering abortion providers, for example "Q: What would you do if you were in a room with Hitler, Mussolini and an abortionist and you had a gun with only two bullets? A: Shoot the abortionist twice." The same spring that these pamphlets were sent out, David Gunn was killed by Michael Frederick Griffin, a member of Rescue America a pro-life organization. Medical schools had begun omitting courses that dealt with abortion. These three conditions led to what is referred to as the "greying" or

Electronics/Integrated Circuit

Overview
An integrated circuit is a collection of very small components etched onto a silicon wafer. The wafer is then cut out and placed into a package usually made out of plastic or ceramic and connected to leads with small wires.

The integrated circuit was independently invented in 1959 by both Jack Kilby of Texas Instruments and Robert Noyce of Fairchild Semiconductor. (about.com) Their invention led to the modern integrated circuit, devices with millions of transistors and incomprehensible computing power.

Some popular ICs
 * 1) 747 Operational Amplifier
 * 2) 555 Timer IC
 * 3) PIC -Peripheral Interface Controller,
 * 4) 7400 series ICs.

USA-177

USA-177, also known as GPS IIR-11 and GPS SVN-59, is an American navigation satellite which forms part of the Global Positioning System. It was the eleventh Block IIR GPS satellite to be launched, out of thirteen in the original configuration, and twenty one overall. It was built by Lockheed Martin, using the AS-4000 satellite bus.

USA-177 was launched at 17:53:00 UTC on 20 March 2004, atop a Delta II carrier rocket, flight number D303, flying in the 7925-9.5 configuration. The launch took place from Space Launch Complex 17B at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, and placed USA-177 into a transfer orbit. The satellite raised itself into medium Earth orbit using a Star-37FM apogee motor.

By 20 May 2004, USA-177 was in an orbit with a perigee of 20095 km, an apogee of 20271 km, a period of 718 minutes, and 55 degrees of inclination to the equator. It is used to broadcast the PRN 19 signal, and operates in slot 3 of plane C of the GPS constellation. The satellite has a mass of 2032 kg, and a design life of 10 years. As of 2012 it remains in service.

Wikiversity:Publishing original research

Where do I publish
Increasingly online preprints databases are supplementing or replacing peer reviewed journals as sources for research. The major preprints databases are:

 * http://www.ssrn.com - Social Science Research Network
 * http://econpapers.repec.org - Working papers in economics
 * http://www.arxiv.org - Physics and astronomy preprints archive

How do I publish
The main thing that you need to do to publish an academic paper is to collaborate, collaborate, collaborate. Find a group of people to share ideas with and to argue with.

Start by getting together a rough draft on your wiki page, and use this to get comments from people. Don't be afraid that people will trash your ideas, because the purpose of sharing rough ideas is precisely to get people to trash them. Start with a few people that you are comfortable working with, and as the article gels, you can share it with a wider and wider group of people. At this point your draft article should probably have a "DO NOT CITE" tag associated with it, signifying that it is a rough article with possible incorrect data and assertions.

Over time your article will start to reach a form in which you feel comfortable signing your name on it. At that point you will need to upload it to one of the preprints databases. You can also at that point consider submitting it to one of the paper journals.

Publishing in wiki media
The original Wikiversity proposal of 2005 proposed that Wikiversity should, "test the limits of the wiki model both for developing electronic learning resources as well as for teaching and for conducting research and publishing results (within a policy framework developed by the community)".

 * "..... the idea here is to also host learning communities, so people who are actually trying to learn, actually have a place to come and interact and help each other figure out how to learn things. We're also going to be hosting and fostering research into how these kinds of things can be used more effectively." (source)

In order to support publishing of original research, Wikiversity can make use of systems for formal peer review.

Current wiki journals

 * WikiJournal user group - a set of peer-reviewed, academic journals similar to this initial concept
 * WikiJournal of Medicine - The flagship publication of the WikiJournal User Group
 * WikiJournal of Science
 * WikiJournal of Humanities
 * Scholarpedia - an academic-written encyclopedia
 * Ancilla Iuris - a law journal

Past wiki journals

 * Nupedia - a 2000–2003 academic-written encyclopedia
 * Citizendium - a 2006–2020 academic-written encyclopedia
 * academia.wikia.com - a 2006–2007 academic publishing wiki

Edits
Prilin, when you can, please review & let me know if I trampled any your meaning when I did the edits to your orig text. Ok, Ihardlythinkso (talk) 01:52, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

Ihardlythinsk, I has written to you on my email adresse Centrum.cz. There are the aswers on your questions and this improvement:

Drops Each player owns a stack for storing captured men, which start the game holding two white and two black pawns, respectively. When a man is captured, it is transfered to the stack of the capturer, preserving the value of a captured man at the time of capture, but reversing the color of the symbol to that of the capturer. The player whose turn it is to move may either move a man on the chessboard, or drop any man in his stack on any vacant square, with the following restrictions:

an unpromoted man (pawn, knight and bishop) may not be dropped into the opponent's promotion zone; a pawn may not be dropped on a file already containing a pawn of the same color; ''a pawn may not be dropped below its initial setup rank (1st and 2nd ranks for White; 7th and 8th ranks for Black). Please to eliminate.''Bold text When the tray is not a pawn for the promotion zone, the unit is eliminated from the game that is a secondway of .It is a second way to capure (as in chess).

[edit]

Your article Cubicshogi is excelent - my editing is blocked in this time. Ok,

I am a masked mad psychiatrist too, but I was published my first science article about neuroendocrinology of the brain 1990-th... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Prilin (talk • contribs) 15:07, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Okay, I've made the updates (except am still confused about "second way to capture", I need to understand this more).

 * Your editing privilege is restored now too, I presume. Ok, Ihardlythinkso (talk) 06:39, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

 * I sent you Email with more specific questions so I can understand better. (Please see your Email.) Ok, Ihardlythinkso (talk) 07:46, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

"Single source" tag
I removed the "single source" tag from August 2012, since that is the nature of the beast for many variants in category:chess variants and category:shogi variants, and isn't a function of any particular variant (like this one). So if it is an issue it should be resolved at the category levels, for WP-wide consistency. Ihardlythinkso (talk) 02:22, 30 June 2014 (UTC)

marked with the circle
The article as it currently stands uses several times the broken English phrase of marked with the circle to talk about promoted pieces and/or their moves. I'd like to correct, but unfortunately it is slightly unclear what exactly is meant. Is the only meaning to explain the diagrams that show the movement of the unpromoted and promoted piece side-by-side? This works for rook and bishop, but not for the knight/horse. Is the circle used on the playing pieces to denote the promoted natur? This would be nice, but none of the pictures show this... Does anyone know? MarSch (talk) 15:06, 27 February 2016 (UTC)

Using a chess set
Since there are two generals and one rook in Euroshogi, to play it with a standard chess set, one should use the queen for the euroshogi rook and the two rooks for the generals. It might make sense to adapt the diagrams to reflect that possibility... MarSch (talk) 15:28, 27 February 2016 (UTC)

cubes?
This article does a horrible job of describing the cubes. What are they used for? It says you rotate them to promote, but that's the same as regular shogi pieces. — Preceding unsigned comment added by <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 07:25, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Million Doll

Million Doll (ミリオンドール) is a Japanese web manga written and illustrated by Ai. It began serialization on Comic Smart's free manga website Ganma in December 2013 and has since been collected into two tankōbon volumes. An anime television series adaptation by Asahi Production aired from July to September 2015.

Plot
Sūko is an idol-loving shut-in who uses the power of the internet to make relatively unknown idols popular. Ryū-san, on the other hand, is a passionate idol otaku who always attends performances by whoever his favorite artist of the moment is. Sūko uses her prowess to popularise the local idol group, Itorio, while Ryū-san focuses his support on the underground idol, Mariko. The competitiveness of these two otakus to promote their respective idols to stardom changes their careers forever.

Idol fanatics

 * The main protagonist. An idol-loving hikikomori (shut-in) who has the ability to make any idol popular through the power of blogging. Having visited one of Itorio's live performances, she decides to use her blog to give them a boost in popularity.

Sabahan cuisine

Sabahan cuisine is a regional cuisine of Malaysia. As in the rest of Malaysian cuisine, Sabah food is based on staples such as rice with a great variety of other ingredients and different methods of food preparations due to the influence of the state's varied geography and indigenous cultures that were quite distinct from the regional cuisines of the Peninsular Malaysia. Sabah along with its neighbour of Sarawak is famous for their multi-ethnic population.

Dishes
Among the foods and beverages particular to Sabah are:
 * Amplang is a type of cracker made from Spanish mackerel, tapioca starch and other seasonings, and then deep fried.
 * Beaufort Mee.jpgBeaufort mee is a speciality of Beaufort town. Handmade noodles are smoked, then wok-tossed with meat (usually slices of char siu and marinated pork) or seafood and plenty of choy sum, and finished off with a thick viscous gravy.
 * Bosou, also called noonsom or tonsom, is the Kadazan-Dusun term for a traditional recipe of tangy fermented meat. Smoked and pulverised buah keluak (nuts from the Kepayang tree (Pangium edule) which grows in Malaysia's mangrove swamplands), or pangi is a key ingredient and acts as a preservative. Combined with rice, salt and fresh meat or fish, the mixture is then placed into a sealed jar or container for fermentation. Contemporary variants for bosou add bananas and pineapples to the mixture. Pinongian is a variant where rice is omitted to produce a final product which is much less tangy in taste; however, unlike bosou, "pinongian" must be cooked before serving.
 * Century egg dumpling is a speciality of Sandakan town. The dumpling is added with a cutlet of century egg & may be served along with noodles.
 * Fried pork is a speciality of Sandakan town. The specially marinated pork is fried & later cut to slices, usually served along with soup & wide vermicelli, also commonly served with dried noodle.
 * Hinava is a traditional Kadazan-Dusun dish of raw fish cured in lime juice. Typically, firm fleshed white fish like mackerel (hinava sada tongii) is marinated with lime juice, sliced shallots, chopped chilli, julienned ginger and grated dried seed of the bambangan fruit. Optional additions may include sliced bitter gourd. Hinava may also be made with prawns (hinava gipan).
 * Kelupis is a type of food wrapped in leaf.
 * Ketupat is a type of food wrapped in leaf.
 * Linongot is a type of leaf parcel (usually irik or tarap leaves) filled with a combination of cooked rice and root vegetables like sweet potatoes and yam. Alternate names known by Kadazan-Dusun communities in other districts include linopod and sinamazan.
 * Nasi kombos is a rice dish from the Lotud community. Glutinous rice is first cooked with young coconut water, and then mixed with the grated tender flesh of a young coconut. The rice is traditionally served in a hollowed out coconut shell.
 * Nonsoom bambangan is a pickle made from half ripe bambangan fruit mixed with grated dried bambangan seed and salt, sealed in a tightly covered jar and left to ferment for weeks.
 * Ngiu Chap.jpgNgiu chap is a Chinese-influenced dish of beef or buffalo broth served with noodles, usually immersed in the soup with slices of poached beef or buffalo meat, meatballs, stewed brisket, tendon, liver and various offal parts. An iconic Sabahan dish, ngiu chap has many different variations, from the lighter Hainanese style to heartier Hakka-influenced flavours, and even village-style ngiu chap adapted for indigenous tastes.
 * Nuba laya/Nuba tinga is an ordinary rice wrapped with banana leaf or nyrik leaf. This dishes is to ease the farmer and the traveller for them to carry for a long journey. Usually this dishes is very famous among the Lun Bawang/Lundayeh people and this dishes a bit similarity to the linongot. However, this Nuba Tinga/Nuba laya is different because the rice is very soft and can bitten easily by senior citizen. Nuba means Rice, Laya means soft while tinga means wrapped thus Nuba laya means soft rice and nuba tingga means wrapped rice.
 * Piaren Ah Manuk is a chicken curry made from a sauteed rempah base and grated coconut, then braised in coconut milk. This dish is very popular in the Iranun community. Variants include fish (Piaren Ah Sada) and unripe jackfruit (Piaren Ah Badak).
 * Pinasakan or Pinarasakan is a home-style Kadazan-Dusun dish of fish simmered with takob-akob (dried skin of a mangosteen-like fruit which functions as a souring agent) or slices of unripe bambangan, as well as fresh turmeric leaves and rhizome.
 * Sagol or sinagol is a Bajau speciality of fish which is first blanched and minced, then sauteed with turmeric, garlic, ginger, onions and crushed lemongrass. Traditionally the oil used is rendered fish liver oil, usually from the same fish used to prepare this dish. This dish may be prepared with shark, stingray and even puffer fish.
 * Sang Nyuk Mien.jpgSang nyuk mian is a dish of noodles served with pork broth, originating from Tawau. Very popular with the non-Muslim communities of Sabah, it is named after the poached-to-order slices of tender marinated pork served in pork broth which is flavoured with fried lard bits. The noodles (usually thick yellow noodles) are either dressed in dark soy and lard, or dunked into the soup along with the aforementioned pork slices, vegetables, meatballs and offal.
 * Sinalau refers to Kadazan-Dusun style smoked meat, which is usually wild boar or bakas. Barbecued on a char grill and eaten with rice and dipping sauces, sinalau bakas can be found and purchased in rural areas and towns. Halal versions substitute wild boar for other game meats like deer.
 * Sinamu baka is a Lun Bawang/Lundayeh traditional food. This is a tangy fermented food same like Bosuo but the differences is Sinamu Baka only suitable for wild bear meat.
 * Tompek is a Bajau food made from grated tapioca, eaten as an alternative starchy staple to rice. The grated tapioca is squeezed to dry out mixture and crumbled, then fried or toasted until golden brown. Grated tapioca may also be packed into cylindrical shapes and steamed until it forms into a chewy tubular cake called putu, another traditional Bajau staple.
 * Tuaran mee is a speciality of Tuaran town. This dish of wok fried fresh handmade noodles is well known in the nearby city of Kota Kinabalu as well as in neighbouring Tamparuli town, where the localised adaptation is called Tamparuli mee . The noodles must first be toasted with oil in the wok to prevent it from clumping together, then blanched to reduce the stiff crunchy texture from toasting. The final step involves stir frying the noodles to a dry finish with eggs, vegetables, and meat or seafood.
 * Tuhau (Etlingera coccinea) is a type of wild ginger, specifically the stems of the same plant popularly served as a relish by the Kadazan-Dusun community. The stems are typically chopped up and served fresh with lime juice, or mixed with local chives and chilli peppers then cured with salt and vinegar. A more recent recipe called serunding tuhau involves slicing tuhau stems into thin floss-like shreds, which is then sauteed until it becomes golden and crisp. It has a distinctive scent which is said to have a polarising effect even among indigenous Sabahans.
 * Ubi Daun Kayu is the tapioca leaves and also the traditional food for Murut and Lun Bawang/Lundayeh
 * UFO tart (also known as cow-dung tart, ) is a famous pastry in Sandakan town. It's made of custard & cream shaped like a cow dung on top of a thin fluffy slice of round shaped cake.

Non-alcoholic beverages

 * Sabah Tea is the main local tea brands of Sabah.
 * Tenom coffee is the main local coffee brands of Sabah which processed using traditional firewood and drum rotation methods followed for almost 50 years without adding any artificial ingredients or colourings.

Alcoholic beverages

 * Bahar or baa is the Kadazan-Dusun variant of palm wine made with sap collected from the cut flower bud of a young coconut tree and a special type of tree bark called rosok, endemic to the Tuaran district. Pieces of the rosok is dipped into the coconut nectar during the fermentation process, which contributes a reddish hue to the final product.
 * Lihing is a rice wine made exclusively from glutinous rice and natural yeast called sasad. Bittersweet in taste profile, lihing is a speciality of the Kadazan Penampang community, where it is still commonly brewed at home. Lihing can be used to make chicken soup (Sup Manuk Lihing), used in marinades, or even as an ingredient for meat pastries and stir-fried dishes. Commercially produced lihing, much pricier than the homebrewed version but consistent in quality, is also available in select souvenir shops. Lihing and similar rice wine variants from other Kadazan-Dusun communities may also be distilled to produce a hard liquor called montoku or talak.
 * Tinonggilan is a slightly sparkling alcoholic drink made from maize. Tinonggilan is a Rungus speciality and is usually served during festive occasions, or as refreshments for guests during the performance of a ritual dance called Mongigol Sumundai.

List of Canadians of Asian ancestry
AfDs for this article:
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

At 2008 AfD, there was no consensus (please see 1st AfD for very good arguments both ways). I feel this is too indiscriminate a list, that duplicates other pages. Boleyn (talk) 15:07, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Canada-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 15:17, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep and move to List of Asian Canadians. That's the name of our article on it and it's the name used in scholarly commentary . This is a topic discussed as cohesive elsewhere. However, there is a danger of OR here: just because someone is, say, Chinese Canadian or Indo-Canadian, doesn't necessarily make them Asian Canadian if they haven't been discussed as such in a RS. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 15:32, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I like pburka's suggestion below better. Would be better for navigation, as the parent category has several hundred people in it. So I am now move and rewrite per pburka. I would help out with restructuring if this is kept, since it seems like some sort of substantial change will be in order if consensus is to keep. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 05:16, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * KEEP It is not indiscriminate, since it has very specific inclusion requirements. Category:Canadian people of Asian descent shows there are articles on them.  I see List of Filipino Canadians exist.  Are there other pages that list every single name listed here in a different list?    D r e a m Focus  01:21, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete The table duplicates Asian_Canadians, and Category:Canadian people of Asian descent has well over 900 people in its subcategories. A mere bullet-pointed list of that size is indisriminate and does not serve readers. This would duplicate pages like List of Chinese Canadians, List of Filipino Canadians, List of Indo-Canadians, Japanese_Canadians, and Taiwanese_Canadians, etc, so yes I would expect all names here to be (or belong) on another. This could instead be a dab page, but a massive lumped, duplicative list is inappropriate, even more so such a subset with no criteria. Category:Canadian people shows there articles on all sorts of categorizations, but they should not all be repeated in multiple list formats just because it's an actual topic. Reywas92Talk 03:17, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as too broad and indiscriminate. Asian Canadians make up 17.7% of the population as of 2016, more than 1 in 6 people. Besides, we already have List of Chinese Canadians, List of Filipino Canadians, List of Korean Canadians. I'm not entirely convinced that even those are worth keeping, but if so, why reinvent the wheel? Better to add other nationalities. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:40, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep and move to List of Asian Canadians per AleatoryPonderings suggestion. Fulfills our criteria for WP:NLIST Wm335td (talk) 19:30, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Move and rewrite as Lists of Asian Canadians (a list of lists). I agree that the topic is too broad, but this page can act as a navigation aid to more specific lists. Note that Category:Canadian people of Asian descent is almost entirely a parent category. pburka (talk) 20:27, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * (This is basically a delete !vote.) pburka (talk) 00:16, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Move and rewrite per pburka. Corachow (talk) 20:50, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete, indisciminate list, redundant to Category:Canadian people of Asian descent. Stifle (talk) 15:41, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. We already have numerous much more specific lists of Canadians by particular Asian nationality (e.g. Chinese Canadians, Japanese Canadians, etc.) and can easily create any that are missing — so a contextless one-stop catchall for all Asian Canadians is simply redundant to other content that we already have.
