L'Express de Gatineau are a Canadian Junior ice hockey team based in Aylmer, Quebec. They play in the National Capital Junior Hockey League. ==History== The Express have joined the league for the 2006-07 season. The team, originally from Sainte-Cécile-de-Masham, Quebec, took the name name La Pêche Express from the sports complex they played out of near Lac LaPêche on the Ontario-Quebec border. In Summer 2009, the Express moved to Aylmer, Quebec. ==Season-by-season record== Note: GP = Games Played, W = Wins, L = Losses, T = Ties, OTL = Overtime Losses, GF = Goals for, GA = Goals against {|class="wikitable" |- align="center" bgcolor="#dddddd" | Season || GP || W || L || T || OTL || GF || GA || Points ||Finish || Playoffs |- align="center" |2006-07 ||34 ||19 ||12 ||- ||3 ||133 ||141 ||41 ||2nd EOJCHL ||Lost Semi-final |- align="center" |2007-08 ||36 ||14 ||18 ||- ||4 ||149 ||166 ||32 ||5th EOJCHL ||Lost Semi-final |- align="center" |2008-09 ||34 ||7 ||25 ||- ||2 ||140 ||221 ||16 ||8th EOJCHL|| Lost Quarter-final |- align="center" |2009-10 ||34 ||11 ||23 ||- ||0 ||116 ||182 ||22 ||8th EOJCHL ||Lost Quarter-final |- align="center" |2010-11 ||34 ||8 ||26 ||- ||0 ||113 ||220 ||16 ||8th NCJHL ||Lost Quarter-final |- align="center" |2011-12 ||32 ||14 ||17 ||- ||1 ||113 ||136 ||29 ||6th NCJHL ||Lost Quarter-final |} ==Individual Player Awards== {|class="wikitable" |- align="center" bgcolor="#dddddd" | Season || Name || Award |- align="left" bgcolor="#eeeeee" |2008-09 ||Léandre Gagné Lemieux ||Rookie of the Year |} The only Express player so far to receive an individual Award has been Léandre Gagné Lemieux.

New page just starting - please help if you can. (Msrasnw (talk) ) I've done some minor tidying. Although the Gold medals seem notable, I am not so sure about the Silver and Bronze ones and perhaps the winners of the latter two should not all be listed. Thanks for the tidying here (sorry for my sloppiness). I think it is nice to have the silver and bronze ones there and don't see that it does much harm and is a potentially useful one given that it was a bit tricky to find - the Cyrillic being a bit tricky for me and their web site not being so good.

Ultra-Royalists or simply Ultras were a reactionary faction which sat in the French parliament from 1815 to 1830 under the Bourbon Restoration. The Legitimists, another of the main right-wing families identified in René Rémond's classic opus Les Droites en France, were disparagingly classified with the Ultras after the 1830 July Revolution by the victors, the Orleanists, who deposed the Bourbon dynasty for the more liberal king Louis-Philippe. Ultraroyalist also refers to "someone who is a very strong supporter of royalism." ==The Bourbon Restoration== Following the Bourbon Restoration (1814–1830), a strongly restricted census suffrage sent to the Chamber of Deputies an ultra-royalist majority in 1815-1816 (la Chambre introuvable) and from 1824 to 1827. Called as such because they were "more royalist than the king" (plus royalistes que le roi), the Ultras were thus the dominant political faction under Louis XVIII (1815–1824) and Charles X (1824–1830). Opposed to the constitutional monarchy of Louis XVIII and to the limitation of the sovereign's power, they hoped to restore the Ancien Régime and cancel the rupture created by the French Revolution. Just as the Restoration, Ultras opposed themselves to liberal, republican and democrat ideas. While Louis XVIII hoped to moderate the 'restoration' of the Ancien Régime in order to make it acceptable by the population, the Ultras would never abandon the dream of an 'integral' restoration, even after the 1830 July Revolution which sent the Orleanist branch on the throne and the Ultras back to their castles in the countryside and to private life. Their importance during the Restoration was in part due to electoral laws which largely favored them (on one hand, a Peer Chamber composed of hereditary members, on the other hand, a Chamber of Deputies elected under a heavily restricted census suffrage, which permitted approximately 100,000 Frenchmen to vote). In 1815, an Ultra majority was elected to the chamber of deputies, commonly known as 'La Chambre Introuvable,' which translates as 'the impossible chamber,' due to Louis XVIII not being able to believe that there were a group of deputies more royalist than him. Under the guidance of his chief minister the duc de Richelieu, Louis XVIII finally decided to dissolve this chaotic assembly, under the terms of article 14 in the Constitutional Charter. This created what is often referred to as a 'Liberal Interlude' from 1816–1820, a period which may be regarded as the Ultras' 'wilderness years.' However, in 1820 the Comte d'Artois' son the Duc de Berri was assassinated. This arguably created a polarisation of politics, which consequently enabled the Ultras to gain more political influence, introducing laws such as the Law of the Double Vote, in order to further dominate the chamber of deputies. In addition to other factors, Louis XVIII's health up until 1824 was in serious decline, reducing his resistance to the extreme Ultra demands, meaning that before he even came to the throne, the Comte d'Artois had essentially been dominating government. The death of Louis XVIII in 1824, seen as too moderate, lifted the Ultras' spirits. The new king, Charles X, had been the leader of the Ultras against Louis XVIII, and worked to become an absolute monarch. In January 1825, Villèle's government voted the Anti-Sacrilege Act, which punished with capital punishment the stealing of sacred vases (with or without consecrated hosts). This "anachronic law" (Jean-Noël Jeanneney) was finally never applied (except on a minor point) and repealed in the first months of Louis-Philippe's reign (1830–1848). The Ultras also wanted to create courts to punish Radicals, and voted law restricting freedom of the press. ==Legitimism, the inheritance of the Ultras== After the 1830 July Revolution, which replaced the Bourbons by the Orleanist branch, which supported more liberal policies, the Ultras' influence declined, although it subsisted until at least 1879 and the 16 May 1877 crisis, and even more. Thus, they softened their views and made the restoration to the throne of the House of Bourbon their new primary target. From 1830 on, they became known as Legitimists. Famous historian René Rémond has identified the Legitimists as the first 'right-wing family' in France, followed by the Orleanists and the Bonapartists. According to him, many modern far right movements, including parts of Jean-Marie Le Pen's National Front or Lefebvre's Society of St. Pius X, are considered fully parts of the Legitimist family. ==References== ==See also== Anti-Sacrilege Act Legitimists Political parties under Restoration Bourbon Restoration Ultrarrealistas Ultraroyaliste Ultrarealisti Ultrasi (stronnictwo polityczne) Ультрароялісти

Luis Alfonso de Alba has been a Mexican diplomat since 1983 and is the current Ambassador of Mexico to the United Nations in New York. He was first appointed Ambassador on December 2001. Throughout his career, he has participated in numerous multilateral meetings, both at the global and regional levels, which has allowed him to gain substantive knowledge on the work and functioning of multilateral organizations, particularly those of the United Nations. In these fora, he has actively pursued the advancement of and humanitarian issues, including through the strengthening and improvement of the relevant international mechanisms. ==Career== From 1983 to 1986, he was assigned to the Mexican Mission to the UN in New York, where he was responsible of the Decolonization Committee and member of the Council for Namibia. He also followed different political matters, including the peace process in Central America (Contadora Group), the situation in the Middle East As Director for Social Issues of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (1991 to 1994), he participated in the 1993 World Conference on Human Rights (Vienna), as well as in the 48th and 49th Sessions of the Commission on Human Rights, in which he worked mainly on the situation of Human Rights in El Salvador. From 1994 to 1998, he was Deputy Permanent Representative of Mexico to the Organization of American States (OAS), where he promoted important initiatives on human rights, the rule of law and humanitarian issues. Among them, the negotiation of the Inter-American Convention on the Elimination of Violence against Women. He also worked in the preparation of the Summits of the Americas (Miami, 1994 and Santiago, 1998) Ambassador De Alba was General Director for the United Nations System of the Mexican Ministry of Foreign Affairs from 1998 to 2001. Among other tasks, he coordinated the participation of the Mexican Delegations to different international meetings, in particular the Durban Conference against Racism and the Special Session of the General Assembly on Children. He also participated in the Mexican Delegation to the United Nations Conference on the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in All Its Aspects (2001), where he promoted a multidimensional approach in order to include humanitarian and human rights concerns. Also, Mr. De Alba took part in the negotiations of the UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime and its Optional Protocols on trafficking in persons; smuggling of migrants; and the illicit manufacturing and trafficking in firearms. Since 2002 he promoted the yearly General Assembly resolution on the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism, a first step that, combined with the resolutions of the Commission on Human Rights and the Human Rights Council, led to the establishment of the Special Rapporteur of the Council on that matter. In his capacity as Deputy Permanent Representative to the Security Council during that period, those efforts were accompanied by the promotion of human rights within the Counter Terrorism Committee (CTC) of the Security Council. From February 2002 to March 2004 Ambassador De Alba was Deputy Permanent Representative of Mexico to the United Nations in New York. In that context, he actively promoted the Mexican initiative to elaborate the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, including the establishment of the negotiating Committee. He also pursued and achieved several measures that granted full participation of civil society, and particularly of persons with disabilities, in the elaboration of the Treaty. Ambassador De Alba was also Chairman of the Disarmament and International Security Committee (First Committee) of the General Assembly during its 59th Session (2004). Under his chairmanship, the Committee approved an initiative for the revitalization of its work, and in particular for the strengthening of dialogue and cooperation to advance the Committee’s agenda. He was Chairman of the Council of the International Organization for Migrations (IOM) at its 88th and 89th Sessions (November 2004 to November 2005). During his tenure, he undertook broad consultations leading to a comprehensive proposal for a new strategy to further improve the work and functioning of IOM and to develop a new paradigm on migration placing the rights of migrants at its core. On 19 May 2006, he was unanimously elected first President of the United Nations Human Rights Council, a mandate he held from 19 June 2006 to 18 June 2007. During that period, the Council was entrusted by the General Assembly to design the new institutions of the international human rights system, while at the same time fulfilling its mandate to protect and promote human rights, in order avoid a protection vacuum. Under Ambassador De Alba’s Presidency, the Council was able to successfully achieve its task. ==References== 1957 births Ambassadors of Mexico Living people Mexican diplomats Permanent Representatives of Mexico to the United Nations Luis Alfonso de Alba Góngora

==Initial comments== This is a draft; please comment here or post suggested redrafts here, and I will implement consensus changes to the wording. If I'm away and there is a clear consensus for a change, please go ahead and edit it without me, but make sure that enough people have had a chance to comment (unless it's an obvious minor fix). I still plan to do three things but wanted to launch this without any more delays. I need to: link the 2004 RfC that confirmed Raul in his role find and link at least one of the informal WT:FAC discussions (I can remember at least two) that I mention as reconfirming Raul, and make sure they conform to my memory of them Most importantly I want to draft another wording of the RfC that fits Noleander's outline, as that has gained some support. In the meantime, please comment away. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) I've made a change. If you think it's inaccurate, let's discuss. You stated that Raul's term continues until the community dismisses him, and described it as the status quo. I substituted a quote from Raul regarding his term from the 2007 discussion, "Nowhere does it say that the term is infinite, but at the same time, nowhere does it say that it is not infinite either." It is simply something left open by prior discussions, to say that the situation is the status quo is to imply a prior decision or consensus that doesn't exist. I inserted a cn tag as reminder to link to the community discussion, though I think "reconfirmed" or "confirmed' are too strong words for an informal process. Fair enough; I certainly knew I needed links there (as stated above) and the wording there does need consensus, as you say. Let's see what others say. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) :I reverted myself upon re-reading the instructions. Here is the diff: this. Is there any great objection? I dislike to do anything which might offend. ::Thanks; I appreciate it. No doubt others will weigh in. (And if anyone can find the links that would be a great help.) Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) :::Can you provide a direct link to Raul's comments? And I'm not wild about the "The featured article director is not an elected position." It seems to me that this is what we are here to settle, and Raul's confirmation may be deemed an election in some form. I would suggest leaving that out. It might be better, after Raul's statement, to avoid a narrative which may be disagreed with and perhaps just provide a list of events with links, such as Raul's confirmation, Sandy's appointment (and the discussion) and so forth. Simply because anything that is deemed an interpretation of events may be argued over. :::It's been almost a day, hope you don't mind, it's all a draft anyway. ::::That's fine, though I'd like to hear from others before we agree on the wording. Your "citation needed" tag is correct; I haven't been able to find those discussions. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) ==Number of leaders== These RfC questions make the assumption that FA leadership should be a single person. A question confirming this leadership by directorship (even if it relies on the delegate system), or whether leadership should be the responsibility of more than one person, would be a more fundamental question than focusing on Raul654. maclean (talk) This would seem to fit with Noleander's suggested approach. I have some reservations about this, as expressed in that section, but would like to see others flesh it out as an alternative to the wording I've offered. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) To clarify, my reservations are not about the appropriateness of that question for the RfC Does anyone else see the "bananas" vandalism at Director? It doesn't appear in the edit window. Is it hidden in some template? maclean (talk) That's a dab page, and I don't see "bananas" on it. Johnuniq (talk) == How do we measure the FA Director's performance? == One question I would like to see added to Nolelander's series of questions: (2a) What metrics will be used to measure the featured article director's performance of his/her responsibilities? Part of the problem I've seen in these leadership discussions is that there seems to be no consensus over how we would measure Raul's performance as FA director. Some editors clearly felt that Raul was underperforming; others felt he was doing a fine job. There seemed to be no common frame of reference; the two sides clearly did not have the same expectations of Raul and/or did not agree what level of performance was considered adequate. I believe we should discuss means to measure the FA director's performance of his/her responsibilities so that in future discussions we can at least have that common frame of reference. –Grondemar Seems like needless bureaucracy. There is no consensus that the FA Director needs poking—what we are seeing is entirely to be expected as it occurs in all areas of life, particularly where talented people with strong opinions congregate. If we had a set of performance criteria, we would spend hours arguing about it, or about something else. Johnuniq (talk) If the director's job is simply to close nominations and select the TFA, what metrics are available? maclean (talk) :Editorial judgment. Johnuniq (talk) ==Clarification requested== The following are hypothetical viewpoints which may be held by editors. How could they be expressed, on the basis of the presently proposed RfC questions? There seems to be an assumption that, should we move to an elected director, Raul will be elected. Otherwise, why: "Raul654's tenure if the FA director is to be elected"? I think it should be made clearer that the questions listed as "alternative 1" represent an alternative approach to the RfC, rather than additional questions, and that if this alternative is adopted, these questions will need to be reframed. Brianboulton (talk) I suggest labeling them as alternatives, and leaving blank templates (or the equivalent) for people to propose their own. Several people have suggested that if someone proposes a reasonable compromise, it may be widely accepted just to put an end to this discussion. We should make it easy for such to be proposed. :I didn't include the two additional options Brian suggests because I couldn't see a good way to frame them and I saw little demand for them in the conversation, though I think there has been at least some suggestion in those directions. I think they both need a little clarification before we could add them. :For "Raul should be reconfirmed, but with a redefined role", is the implication that he is reconfirmed but a subsequent RfC (or less formal discussion) would lead to a redefined role? I didn't include something like this because I felt it wasn't at all clear what it would mean :I omitted "I am opposed to the principle of an elected director, but feel that someone other than Raul should be appointed" because I have a hard time seeing how to frame this to make sense without a subsequent election. If we want to replace Raul, it seems exceedingly unlikely that there would be consensus on a single nominee without something resembling an election. I think discussions on elections could lead to the conclusion that the election would essentially be an appointment, and that Raul's replacement would have the same standing that Raul currently does, not being subject to elections, but that seems like an outcome that 2a/2b could reasonably lead us to. Would it help to change the wording of 2a/2b to make it clear that the outcome of the election discussions could be an appointment, rather than periodic elections, if the community wished it? :I think the "tenure" wording was left over from the first section when I copied it. Fixed. :Re alternative 1: Wehwalt, if you would add whatever text you think would clarify the intention there, per Brian's comments, that would be helpful; and perhaps also add whatever you're thinking of along the lines of templates for additional proposed wordings? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) ::In the archived talkpage discussion, I raised the question whether we should first discuss the nature of director's role, before considering how best to fill it. Noelander's suggestions arose from that. I now feel that, whatever logic might suggest, we have to get the main leadership issue out of the way before any meaningful discussion on duties and responsibilities, etc, can happen. Such a discussion might last weeks or months, and the present atmosphere of exhaustion is inconducive to rational judgement. My concern, however, is that the first question as presently worded seems to cut off any further consideration of the director's role, since the proposal specifies no change in his duties. The wording also elevates Raul's summary of what he does into a "definition". May I suggest that Question 1 be reworded along the lines: "Raul654 is reconfirmed as FA director. The range and nature of the director's duties will be discussed at a later date". I envisage that date being several months down the line, which would provide plenty of time for proper consideration of the question; "What do we want our director to do?". Brianboulton (talk) ::@Brian. That sounds reasonable. Why don't you modify along the lines you propose? @Mike: I am not wonderful with templates. I will be out today but expect to edit a bit tonight. If no one has added it by the time I get back, I will add it. I suggest that we go live Tuesday 0001 (I think I will be back before the end of WikiSunday, so that allows 24 hours). :::I'm fine with the wording Brian proposes, but I would like to hear a couple more opinions before we make the change ::::Agreed with all, particularly changing the first question to what's in bold above. What we may find is that, if Raul retains the job, both the questions and the urgency level change for a lot of people, and this process won't be as hard. Also, if Raul is retained with the idea that there will be future discussion on the nature of the role, it gives Raul and his team a chance to ask questions and make adjustments outside of a formal RFC; for all we know, the community will then be happy with the way things are going and won't feel a need to try to enforce changes. - Dank (push to talk) I disagree with this proposal, because 1) it leaves no room for those who agree that a) Raul is re-confirmed and b) no change to the role as defined is needed, and 2) it keeps a shadow hanging over FAC. If after Raul is reconfirmed, folks want to redefine his role (that is, fix something if it isn't found to be broken), then of course they're free to continue RFCing. I'm struck that the longer this goes on, the more it can be made to appear that there is a problem at FAC, which most feedback has failed to confirm. I'm not sure who benefits from continuing this process, but I'm sure FAC doesn't, and the longer this goes on, the longer the page will stall under lack of review. SandyGeorgia (Talk) Sandy, I am not expressing any personal view here, and certainly don't want to prolong this process any more than you do. I worry about the state of FAC; I've invested a lot of time in it (and I haven't stopped reviewing during this shenanigans). I have been appalled by the nature of some of the attacks in the past few months, and by the possible damage done to the process. I was merely trying to frame the question in a way that wouldn't give anyone reason to claim that the RfC wording prejudged the issue, thus giving them an excuse to renew attacks. My wording was meant to enable the community to decide, calmly and without pressure, if it wanted to preserve all aspects of the leadership status quo, or some aspects, or whether it wanted more fundamental changes. I don't see a shadow hanging over FAC if, over a period of time, there is calm discussion about the way the system is run and possible means of improving it. Brianboulton (talk) PS: Nor is there anything final intended by my suggested wording. Anyone can tweak it. Brianboulton (talk) :On second thought, I believe I will allow someone else to add it. I'm not very good with templates. : @Brian, I understood that (didn't intend to say otherwise), but the problem is that the proposed wording leaves out the most expressed option so far, which is to determine if Raul is endorsed then get back to the business of FAC, where tweaks to criteria or archiving processes can be accomplished as they were last time (via RFC, sans the claims about leadership). We can't leave out the option on the RFC that respects what has been said so far ::I agree with Sandy that there needs to be that option. :::My intention was that those who wished to support the status quo would support 1 and 1a. Sandy's right that the proposed change means that someone who wished the status quo to continue would not have that option (Wehwalt, thanks for indicating your agreement). The problem is that someone might wish to support or oppose a discussion of the role, but in some cases their support might be contingent on the outcome :::: I'm sorry, Mike :::::Easiest way to explain is to do it. I'll put it up and we can revert if there's no support. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) ::::::OK, done; let me know what y'all think. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) :::::::: OK, from this, I see (but it was Greek to Me above)! Hmmmm ... don't see the need for it, seems understood as SOP, Instruction Creep, don't see what it adds other than keeping FAC under a cloud of perpetual RFC and unable to rebuild and recover from October - December, concerned that the community is already RFC weary and few will stick around to help rebuild, so not sure what that accomplishes, but Brian seems to think it's needed ... Bah ... I dunno. I do know we can't keep moving the goalposts and stalling an RFC that was originally discussed for last Monday. In the meantime, reviewers are gone, FAs can't be promoted. SandyGeorgia (Talk) :::::::::Having slept on the matter, and this morning read Colin's post below, I find myself drawn to accepting Sandy's reasoning. In the event of Raul's reconfirmation there will be no incentive to prolong the discussion about leadership roles, and the question should therefore be deferred to the second tier, should this be needed. (Of course, anyone can discuss the leadership roles informally to their hearts' content, any time). I am sorry if my intervention has caused confusion/delay; it was a good faith attempt to try and ensure that that the question was put as fairly as possible. I was not in any way "derailing, sidetracking, moving the goalposts, etc"; comments on the RFC draft were requested, and I responded. Brianboulton (talk) ::::::::::Since it was Brian's post that led to this, I've reversed the changes to the RfC wording and also removed the note about the role definition remaining unchanged if he is reconfirmed :::::::::: I know you weren't doing any of that, Brian == History == Mike, history can be found in these: Wikipedia Signpost/2008-07-21/Dispatches Wikipedia Signpost/2009-03-16/Dispatches Wikipedia Signpost/2007-12-03/Staffing features Back with more if I can find them ... SandyGeorgia (Talk) Can't locate (don't know what keyword searches to use) the other times that Raul was endorsed as director (ec) Thanks Same memory, happened more than once, but short of going through the archives step-by-step, don't know how to find them, and they could have occurred elsewhere (mainpage, for example). SandyGeorgia (Talk) :There are various comments I want to make but don't have a great deal of time tonight (was away this weekend, so only gradually catching up). I'll be making this comment and one other one. On this subject (the history of the FA process) I think it would be a good idea to have a central subpage of the WP:FA structure where this history is documented. I asked questions about this history before (including the timing of the changes for the delegates), and was pointed to those Signpost dispatches, but really it should be all together on one page. And even though the Signpost dispatches came to an end (no need to go into the reasons for that) there is no reason why that series couldn't have continued as an internal bulletin for those following the featured article processes. Something produced 3-4 times a year to keep people informed of general trends and changes which would help people catch up if they were away for a few months. Carcharoth (talk) :: Don't disagree, but it seems we're all quite tied up just getting the basics done, considering declining editorship and lack of reviews. I read through more than 55 FACs today, and found one promotable; having the time to write this stuff up would be just delightful :::Well, I read the QEII article, and it was very nice. Just haven't found time yet to go and say that... Carcharoth (talk) ==Scope== Does the RfC have to be solely about the leadership? I was under the impression that it could also be about the FA process in general. The conclusion I drew from the closure was that that the leadership was the primary interest for most commenters. There's no reason we can't go ahead and cover other issues in a subsequent discussion, but this is already a draining process and I felt it was necessary to limit the scope of the RfC in order to make it productive. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) Fair enough. Let's get the leadership stuff squared away, and then we can discuss other matters. == Suggest simplification and two phases == I think this RfC is rather complicated, and I say this as someone used to reading and writing complex requirements specifications. There is a risk people will be confused, and !vote in the wrong place or open up opposes where you didn't want them, or make contradictory !votes. Can we just remove the role definition/change aspect from question 1. That makes it much clearer that it is just discussing the re-confirmation of Raul and whether we want to set a timescale for another reconfirmation, or whether we are happy to let things go till someone gets fed up. It makes 1 and 2 much more exclusive and dealing solely with appointment issues. It is too early to ask Q3. For example, if the majority are happy with the status quo then Raul is reappointed with his current role and many will see no need to urgently review the role. But should the majority reject Raul's reconfirmation (unlikely but hey) then I would think many people would want a discussion on the role prior to elections. Indeed, one's election pitch might include what one plans to do in the role. The game changes. So the two changes I propose are removing the role aspect from Q1 and postponing Q3 until after the first round (when it could have multiple options such as a) now b) in a few months or c) ad hoc). Colin°Talk Both done, per Brian's agreement above. I think we're now getting close to being able to launch the RfC, but I'm going to wait at least a day or two longer to see if anyone disagrees with the changes, and also to see if anyone wishes to try to flesh out Noleander's version into a usable form. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) There needs to be a simple " do not confirm" to match the clarity of the confirmation option. :I see why you changed the heading as you did, but I think we need to tweak it some more. Questions 1 and 2 are more or less mutually exclusive; anyone voting support on one is likely to oppose the other. Hence it's accurate to title it "If Raul is not confirmed as director", since if 1 fails, Raul has not been reconfirmed. (I would prefer to change this to "reconfirmed", since that's the form we've used throughout, and since he was confirmed once before, in 2004.) To avoid ambiguity, I think the subsidiary questions ought also to change, since 2a currently says "is reconfirmed". How about "The FA director role becomes an elected position. Raul remains as FA director until the elections are completed. The timing and structure of the elections are to be defined by further discussion." for 2a, and "The FA director role becomes an elected position. Raul loses the role of FA director with immediate effect. The timing and structure of the elections are to be defined by further discussion." for 2b? If there are no objections I'll make those changes this evening. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) ::Mike, I agree generally, but I think not confirming Raul should be a separate "support" question. Let me work on it a bit and I'll edit tonight. If it isn't liked, it can always be changed. I trust you'll agree that people are engaging now? :::I've thought more about your change of the wording to "If Raul is not confirmed as director" and it made me think we might be able to simplify this a bit more. I'm going to post a new section at the bottom (for visibility) to suggest a simplification of the questions. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) Mike, a lot of changes (that seemed to be "leading the reader"), as well as some errors (there have been four FAC delegates, not three, and most turnover at FAR, not FAC) had crept in since your original version. I replaced that with Signpost publications and correct names and numbers with these edits Then, in this series of edits, I juggled the flow to give the history and define the issue of "delegates" before talking about those issues. The flow and history and numbers were just off; hope it's now fixed. SandyGeorgia (Talk) I tweaked one word; I think your changes are fine, and I like the idea of using the Signpost links. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) Now, having addressed the flow, I'm unclear on the chronology of how Noleander's version came to be added after the pre-RFC on the RFC closed I will be removing that section tonight unless I see some support for it == SOPA == Should the SOPA initiative go through and the site get locked from editing, you may want to hold off on launching the RFC until afterwards. :Is that thing still going forward in the face of Obama saying he doesn't support the controversial provisions? ::Jimbo's been tweeting about it, so it's still highly likely. :::Sigh. Is there a date set for the SOPA strike? I've completely lost the thread, Mike, but I've added the "don't confirm Raul" option as a separate question. I would not remove the oppose sections, though I guess you could, because I suspect some people may have views that don't completely fit any of the proposed alternatives. I've also omitted the whole thing about whether Raul remains in office. I don't think it's worth discussing, he will unless he resigns until there's someone else or we dispense with the position. ::::Wednesday sometime; the results are set to be announced within two hours. :::::Well, I wanted a wikibreak. :::::::It seems we will be dark Wednesday (Eastern Standard Time). The only people who will be annoyed is us. :::::::: Well, that's democracy in action for 'ya! Politicization of processes comes to mind ... SandyGeorgia (Talk) :::::::: (ec) Well, I did schedule a farrier visit for that day... sucks that it's going to be cold as heck here. Maybe I'll cancel the farrier and go to the library instead... Ealdgyth - Talk ::::::::::To quote Dick Tuck—"The people have spoken—the bastards." :::::::::::I'll wager $10 Dick Tuck never said that. Brianboulton (talk) :::::::::::::Agree. Tuck's pranks greatly gained in the telling. He's still alive, apparently, at least we don't record his death. == Further simplification == Wehwalt's comment that if Raul is not reconfirmed he would remain in office until a replacement was selected seems like an opportunity to simplify this further. In the straw poll there were two strong themes: whether Raul should retain the post and whether the post should be elected. I spent some time trying to make the two questions independent of each other, in order to avoid a process where one question has to be decided before the community can vote on the next question. If the two questions are really independent, then there are four independent outcomes. I don't think they really are independent, though. The option at the bottom left doesn't really mean anything 1. The post of FA director remains an appointed role, and: (a) Raul is reconfirmed in that role. (b) Raul is not reconfirmed in that role. (c) If the post remains an appointed role, it should be subject to periodic reconfirmation. 2. The post of FA director becomes an elected role. The timing and structure of the elections are to be defined by further discussion. All but 1(c) would be followed only by a support section, not an oppose section, as they are all mutually exclusive. 1(c) would be followed by support and oppose sections. I think this is a big improvement. Option 1(b) is one that Brian said should be included in an earlier post on this page. In response to his post I said I felt it could be eliminated because if Raul is not reconfirmed there will be something very like an election, so it's really not different from 2, if one allows that those discussions may result in a process which does not lead to periodic elections. However, there were strong opinions expressed on WT:FAC about the question of whether the role should be subject to elections, and this approach makes it possible to express that opinion without being required to support Raul in the process. Are there any possible opinions that this could exclude? If we're agreed that role definition is to be deferred, and that Raul remains in office till any subsequent process is completed, then I think this covers everything. If you believe that "Raul should stay, but it should be an elected post", you support 2 and subsequently vote for Raul, if he runs. If you like the status quo, you support 1(a). If you want Raul to stay but to be reconfirmed periodically, you support 1(a) and 1(c). I think this covers most or all of the positions I've seen expressed so far. The RfC closer will decide which of 1(a), 1(b) and 2 have the most claim to consensus, and will determine the outcome of 1(c) only if 2 is not carried. Sorry to restructure at this late date, but I think the comments from everyone here have really simplified things, and I agree with Colin that it was complex as it stood. I will go ahead and draft these on the RfC page now, replacing the Noleander section, so that people can see the results more definitely. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) It looks good on first glance, but I want to think about it and work a few things on paper. But I think that is a very promising approach. That's fine. (ec) OK, done. I ran into more trouble but I think I worked around it to an even better solution. If you're curious, the problem with what I posted above is that if 1(a) and 1(b) each received equal support, 2 might receive more votes than either, but it might be the case that the supporters of 1(a) and (b) would agree on the preference for appointed vs. elected, so 2 would have the majority but not be a consensus. So I had to make it three cascading questions. I think the result is actually a further simplification, but please tell me what you think. (post ec) Glad you like that approach. Any other opinions? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) I've now replaced the earlier versions with this new one. I'll wait and see if anyone comments, but I feel this is much better than what we had; it's much easier to read and I think it allows the same range of opinions to be expressed. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) == Discussion or polling? == When this request for comments (RfC) goes live, I hope there will be room for discussion and not just polling of opinions. There are several issues that have been raised over the past weeks that seem to have got lost in the general angst over how to structure this RfC. Even if the actual polling of opinion is kept simple, I do hope there will be room for people to express their views and opinions and ask questions, with at least some aspects addressed by future discussion. Could I suggest that there is at least a section asking whether more discussions are needed (probably, but not right away) and when to have those discussions (whether in a few weeks or months)? Carcharoth (talk) Only if we can ask you to restrict your feedback to less than a million words, and stay on topic :) :) :) Said with all kindness and respect, Carcharoth, but you do tend to go off-topic and create diversions occasionally :) SandyGeorgia (Talk) I'm hesitant to add a discussion about whether we need to have discussions. I've added discussion sections to the alt version of the RfC just proposed, and that, plus the section at the end for discussion of the role, seems to me to be plenty for now. The last part of my job as RfC coordinator will be to go back to WT:FAC after this is closed and ask if there are further issues from the original straw poll that need to be discussed, and, if more discussion is needed, whether I should be involved. The community never said that the discussion on leadership would be enough; they said it should be first. I think we can ask what's next when we're done here. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) :OK. And I hope the section I just posted below isn't too off-topic. It does touch on leadership issues, I think. But might stray too much into performance issues. Anyway, I've got my thoughts down now, and in less than a million words as well. Carcharoth (talk) There’s something happening here. What it is ain’t exactly clear. I think that any outcome other than change will lack legitimacy because this Request for Comment is being "framed" and structured to oppose/support insider preferences rather than "requesting outside input". This needs to be open to outside views, not just those vetted by a local consensus of incumbents. Alarbus (talk) A RfC has to ask specific questions. You want change; if the consensus in Q1 is for an elected director, you have your victory: Raul is not reconfirmed, an election will be held. If the consensus is for an appointed role, you can still support change by voting against Raul's appointment. There is a General Discussion section which is entirely open to outside views. I think Mike has striven to present the questions fairly; I was critical of some of the earlier wordings, but I don't think we can get much fairer than the latest draft, without getting hopelessly entangled in subclauses. Brianboulton (talk) :: It not about “victory”. There’s battle lines being drawn. Nobody’s right if everybody’s wrong. It's about seeking openness to much greater participation, seeking much higher output of higher quality articles, and about abandoning an arbitrary leadership model that has long served the project poorly. Alarbus (talk) :::That isn't an answer. Just empty "big speech" words. Colin°Talk :::: I seem to have missed Brian asking me a question. Alarbus (talk) :Are you saying that if the poll doesn't go your way then it must be flawed? Specfically which flaws do you see in the wording of the RfC? Colin°Talk ::Alarbus, if you're willing to provide specific suggestions, I can consider changing the RfC, but there's not much I can do with what you've posted. Please provide some idea of how you think the RfC should be structured. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) ::Are you saying that if the poll doesn't go your way then it must be flawed? - It sounds like he's already trying to discredit this RFC process so he can lay the groundwork for a fourth bite at the apple. Raul654 (talk) ::: "requesting outside input" is right out of RFC. Is that what's happening here? I don't think so. I see Sandy having picked a "framer" to structure/manage/whatever this into a set of pre-vetted up/down questions. ::: Mike, please stub-out a section for "outside views". I'll be offering one, For What It's Worth. Alarbus (talk) ::::There's absolutely no reasons for an "outside views" section. How can you comment on "is that what's happening here" when the RFC hasn't even started? Those coming to the RFC, when it starts, from outside of the general FAC regulars can !vote or comment in the same places as anyone else. Please remember the RFC has specific limited scope, which is addressing what the community has decided is the most pressing question. The RFC will, I'm sure, we widely advertised for all to comment. Colin°Talk ::::: See RFC: "requesting outside input". That this "RFC has specific limited scope" is exactly why it lacks legitimacy. Alarbus (talk) ::::::This RfC will request outside input; any editor is free to comment and support whatever options they think are best. The topic chosen is also subject to outside input; in fact I believe most FAC regulars who expressed an opinion were either against an RfC, or against this topic, so it is hard for me to see why you think the topic is inherently framed towards insider preferences. If you think the wording itself is biased, I'm open to input on that. Finally, if you think the wrong topic was chosen, despite the opinions expressed in the straw poll, there's nothing to prevent follow up discussions. I would have gladly run an RfC on any topic the community came to consensus on; and I was under the impression, given your support for this topic, that you felt this was the right topic for an RfC too. ::::::To respond specifically to your suggestion of an "outside views" section: I don't understand what you're looking for. Are you saying that only those who are not FAC regulars, or who perhaps have never submitted a FAC, should post in a section like that? Or that it is for topics that are outside the scope of the RfC? Or something else? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) ::::::: See Carcharoth's initial post that I replied to. I don't think highly simplified support/oppose framing is appropriate. I obviously support change. What I've been after is a neutral statement of the history of the FA, a summary of the concerns expressed, and open the floor to “comment” from the whole community. I would expect a lively discussion and an uninvolved close (maybe by a group of 3, such as with the SOPA issue). What I'm seeing, though, is huge resistance to open discussion by outsiders. I'd like to see lots of IP participation; our readers. How about we have an every-page-banner such as the SOPA issue used to gauge opinion? Alarbus (talk) ::::::::If there's something non-neutral about the history of the FA process as given in the RfC, please say what you think the problem is ::::::::: Mike, although I've said I believe you're not the right person to be doing this, I'm not saying you're not trying, and succeed at, being neutral. But I think the structuring of this as a poll is too limiting; Polls are evil. Colin, above, has come out strongly against allowing outside views, and Modernist and Moni have a history of summarily cutting my posts. Think they'll cut an outside view? (especially mine;-) And there's Sandy walking the wiki with her lit flamethrower... I see no reason at all for a "topic restriction" in a request for comment. The effect of this structure is to encourage people to drop in a few #Support/Oppose lines with brief comments, when the project would be better served by more thoughtful comments than . I am after a definite outcome here; change, higher standards, more openness, greater participation. But first we've a blackout to run... Alarbus (talk) (unindent) Alarbus, your statement about me is quite false and I ask you to strike it. Please re-read my comment above. Outside views are welcome but we don't need to pigeonhole them in the RFC. We could do without you throwing mud at about Modernist and Moni too. We had a long rambling discussion earlier and it just got impossible to follow. This RFC extracts what the community considers are the urgent questions. There's no reason other discussions on FAC issues can't follow, if the community has the appetite for them. Yes, we know you won't be satisfied with any outcome other than radical change. Prepare to be disappointed. There is no messiah. Colin°Talk would seem to clearly support my saying: I'm glad you now welcome outside views. Thanks. The wider community (see comments below) is who this RfC sould be seeking input from. The local talk can not speak for them, only for the incumbents. Alarbus (talk) Hmm. This didn't say "There's absolutely no reason for outside views" did it? And was followed by "Those coming to the RFC, when it starts, from outside of the general FAC regulars can !vote or comment in the same places as anyone else". Again, could you strike your mischaracterisation of my postion (twice) and I would like an apology now, for wasting my time. Colin°Talk I've declined to participate in this discussion so far because it seems to be rolling along super without me. However, if Alarbus and others bring the same overblown, unsupportable hyperbole (Raul is a dictator, God, it's a one-party system), invective, and making the conversation about individual editors rather than issues, I will be all too miserable to participate again, probably by either asking an admin to remove such useless comments or removing them myself, using my dusty admin tools to do it. I've seen Alarbus have rational discussions so I know he can. Not that I think anything I might say would motivate him, but I'm encouraging him to make rational, logical comments about issues at FAC, and how potential changes may improve the system. The more statements by Alarbus or anyone else that are irrational and hyperbolic, the more likely it is that they are simply unable to use real examples or experience to make a point and are instead relying on other tactics to sway opinions. Alarbus, if you have problems with me, use my talk page. The link to it is at the end of my signature. Do not make this RfC about me or anyone else, please. Focus on the issues at hand. == Track records and setting goals == For what it is worth, my views are that the featured article (FA) director and delegates should be editors with a track record immediately prior to their appointment that shows major contributions in the areas of writing and reviewing featured articles, and that everyone (director and delegates) should continue to maintain this track record to demonstrate that they are familiar with the current standards prevailing at featured article candidates. This maintaining of the track record would either take place at the same time as someone does the director/delegate work, or by taking a sabbatical to write and review again for a while. There would be no reconfirmations. The only obligation would be to keep a record in userspace of work done as an editor on featured articles and work done reviewing featured article candidates. It should then become obvious if anyone drifts away from writing and reviewing and needs to take time out to re-engage with that. What I think should be avoided is any tendency for the featured article director to remain in that role indefinitely and/or leaving future plans vague (which is the current situation). It would be better, in my opinion, for the featured article director to set goals to achieve within a set time period (even if the goal is only to keep things going the same way as before), and then take stock at that point (e.g. after a year or two) and either step down or set new goals. Possibly the above is too 'performance related', but I don't think it is an excessive requirement to ask those responsible for overseeing the featured article process (delegates) to document their track record in that process, and for the director to set some goals and review those goals periodically. I realise this isn't relevant to the structuring of the RfC, but wanted to get these thoughts down on the page to see if this is the sort of thing that people think would be worth discussing. Carcharoth (talk) == Launch on Thursday evening == Barring further substantive input, I plan to start this RfC, with the current wording, on Thursday evening, US eastern time. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) Given the chaos which is likely to follow the enforced strike, I suggest that we plan on Friday morning, but touch base on Thursday evening. ==Comments== A few thoughts: I like the simplified structure of this RFC versus previous versions. However, this sentence: Should the post of FA director remain an appointed role... needs to be changed. It is not accurate to use the word "appointed" to describe how I got the directorship, and it feeds into misconceptions (already expressed on WT:FAC) that I was appointed by Jimbo. I got the job first by doing it, and then later by community approval/acclimation. Also, I notice that this RFC doesn't specify when or how it gets closed. I'm starting to get a bit RFC-weary, and with discussion about to enter its fourth week, the last thing I want is another lengthy RFC with an open-ended timetable. Raul654 (talk) On your first paragraph, to save Mike further headaches over wording I suggest:- Would these changes meet your concern? Brianboulton (talk) :I've made these changes and a couple of related ones; here is the diff. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) An emerging concern about this latest (SOPA) in a string of delays and the how and when the RFC will be closed is that I tendered my resignation what will now be more than 10 days before the RFC will finally start, offering to stay on for the 30 days it would take to wrap up an RFC, assuming the 30 days was more than enough time ... so, on something after 30 days from Jan 8, Ucucha's load is going to increase, and there is already a recent-record number of FACs on the page due to lack of reviews and an uptick in noms due to WikiCup. (In the event this is still dragging on then because of these delays, I'm reminded that Brian offered to step in temporarily). SandyGeorgia (Talk) :Per RFC, there is no minimum or maximum length for an RfC. When I start it I will ask here, and also on WT:FAC, for a closer to be identified. I think it should run for a minimum of ten days, and be closed at any point after that that the closer feels the results are unlikely to change, and it should run for a maximum of thirty days. Are there any preliminary thoughts on who would be a good person to close this? and have both been suggested. Any others? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) ::Perhaps someone from Arbcom could help close, such as Elen of the Roads. Future Perfect at Sunrise also springs to mind as a highly respected uninvolved admin. Or what about a non-admin closer, one of a team of three? A couple more comments: All the above points are relevant to this RfC as far as I can tell. I hope there is time to consider them. Carcharoth (talk) Regarding notifications, I favour site-wide; I've said so several times. Anyone know how to request a SOPA-style banner at the top of every page? The rationale for site-wide notification is given right on FA: as determined by Wikipedia's editors (Wikipedians) — this is everyone's business; it is in no way an issue local to any local consensus of wp:FA-whatever page regulars. Alarbus (talk) Alarbus (talk) :Taking the above in order: Carcharoth, I haven't audited the links since I created the page; thanks for doing that. I'll do another check before this goes live == Closer == Per this section at WT:FAC, I plan to ask Moonriddengirl if she'd be willing to close, as she was asked to look in at the start of this RfC. I would like to start the RfC tonight or tomorrow, so please comment soon if she would be unacceptable as a closer. I also think that my recommendation on duration should be limited to saying "at least ten days"; the guidance at RFC should be enough for the closer. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) I would give no recommendation at all; as you point out, WP:RFC is plenty. :Fine with me. She has indicated willingness to close, so I'll leave it at that unless someone comes up with an objection to her involvement. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) == "remain by consensus" a bit unclear == Sorry to come into this very late - not having read much of what came before. My only concern on the wording is that "Should the post of FA director remain by consensus" is a bit unclear. I assume this means that the status quo will remain as it is, roughly "It ain't broke, so don't fix it." But what is the status quo as far as selecting and removing the FA director? "By consensus", I assume, means that an RfC could be called to remove the FA director, and then an RfC would be called to appoint a new one. Is that correct? The election alternative seems pretty clear - some sort of straightforward "just count the votes" procedure would be set up in the near future, but the timing of the election is not an issue here. FWIW, I'm in favor of both. Raul will leave at some point, but until then It ain't broke. Before he leaves an election procedure should be set up. Smallbones (talk) That section originally read Should the post of FA director remain an appointed one, or become an elected role?. I objected because I was not, in fact, appointed. I've changed the question to be more explicitly about keeping the status quo. Raul654 (talk) The new wording seems fine to me. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library)

The Imperial Ducal Abbey of Kempten in the Allgäu, was a city state in the Holy Roman Empire. ==Early years== Kempten Abbey was built around 748. It had financial and political support from Hildegard, wife of Charlemagne and become one of the more prominent monasteries in the Frankish Empire. It was rebuilt in 941 by the abbot Ulrich of Augsburg after Magyar raids. ==Imperial Status== In 1213, Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II declared the abbot of Kempten a member of the Reichstag and granted the abbot the right to bear the title of Duke. In 1289 the neighbouring settlement became a Free Imperial City, starting a rivalry. In 1525 the last property rights of the abbots in the Imperial City were sold in the so-called “Great Purchase”, marking the start of the co-existence of two independent cities bearing the same name next to each other. Kempten had a territory of around 40,000 people and was one of the larger monastery states. ==Thirty Years' War== More conflict arose after the Imperial City converted to Protestantism in direct opposition to the Catholic monastery (and Free City) in 1527. During the Thirty Years' War (1632–33), the abbey was destroyed by Swedish troops. Roman Giel of Gielsberg, the abbot commissioned a new monastery church including a residence for the Duke-Abbots, one of the first major churches to be built in Germany after the Thirty Years' War. Kempten was the center of a religious controversy in 1706 when the abbot confiscated a Reformed church, which provoked Frederick I of Prussia to confiscate all Benedictine monasteries and churches until the church was returned. ==Secularisation== The abbey ordered the last execution of a witch in the Holy Roman Empire in 1775. During the Napoleonic Wars the Abbey came under Bavarian rule (1802–03) and was formerly dissolved in the German Mediatisation with its territory being annexed by Bavaria. In 1819, the abbey's territory was united with the territory of the Imperial City into a single communal entity. ==Bibliography== Notes References - Total pages: 395 - Total pages: 752 Former countries in Europe States of the Holy Roman Empire Imperial abbeys Former theocracies States and territories established in 1213 1802 disestablishments City-states Kempten (Allgäu) Fürststift Kempten Abbazia di Kempten Abdij Kempten Kempten fyrsteabbedi

==Oslo Weather== I have added a "" template to the article Oslo Weather, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Leuko ==Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Access1.gif}== Thank you for uploading Access1.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check: That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in. That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale. If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

The Housing Authority of New Orleans is a housing authority in New Orleans, Louisiana tasked with providing housing to low-income residents. ==History== The public housing in New Orleans has been subject to federal control for a number of years before Hurricane Katrina. After the storm, many of the public housing units were destroyed by decision of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These in New Orleans have also been home to important cultural contributions, such as the birth of Bounce music. == List of New Orleans housing projects == === Uptown Projects === C.J. Peete (Magnolia) ł 11th and 12th Wards Guste (Melpomene) ł 3rd Ward B.W. Cooper (Calliope) ł 2nd Ward St. Thomas ł 10th Ward === Downtown Projects === St. Bernard ł 7th Ward Desire ł 9th Ward Florida ł 9th Ward Lafitte 6th Ward Iberville ł 4th Ward Press Park ł 9th Ward === Westbank Projects === Fischer 15th Ward Christopher Homes 15th Ward Note: Press Park and Christopher Homes are not Projects; they are Section 8 housing complexes under HANO. ==Post-Katrina reductions and controversy== ===Lawsuit=== On June 27, 2006, a class action law suit was filed by displaced residents of New Orleans public housing to challenge the plan of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to reduce the number of public housing units in the city from 5,100 before Hurricane Katrina to only 2,000 units. ===City council vote=== The New Orleans city council voted unanimously on December 20, 2007 to allow HUD to destroy 4,500 units of low-income housing. HUD plans to replace the units with mixed-income housing. The city council voted despite the arguments at the council meeting by residents who said that HUD's plan would not provide enough housing for the 3,000 families (mostly African American) who lived in the projects before Hurricane Katrina. Many more protestors clashed violently with police both inside and outside the council chambers. === One future prediction === Courtney Cowart, strategic director of disaster response for the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana, predicted that the shortage of low-cost housing will get worse in the coming months, because the federal government plans to move more than 30,000 people out of government-owned trailers. ==Racial composition== New Orleans public housing has experienced extraordinary segregation. Racial data from HUD's Resident Characteristics Report, as of March 31, 2008, of the 17,730 public housing units in New Orleans, indicated that 95% of the population in the Metropolitan Statistical Area is African American. Statewide figures for Louisiana's 26,637 public housing units show that 80% of the population is African American, compared with a 46% African American component of the entire nation's 1.9 million public housing units. ==References== ==External links== Housing Authority of New Orleans Populated places in Louisiana with African American majority populations

==Notability of Sherrysa-Whore== A tag has been placed on Sherrysa-Whore requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article. If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines. For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies.

==Untitled== I just watched the movie Door-to-Door. In the movie, the reporter said he was from "The Portland Tribune". This wiki article says it was in The Oregonian. Can anyone explain the discrepancy? I saw the movie, some years ago, and eventually bought it. The life, attitude, and determination of Bill Porter has been an inspiration to myself and several friends. One in particular that has multiple schlerosis. Althouh it is not the same disease, Bill's strength through a disablement has been a source of invaulable support. Thank you, Bill, —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.174.8.63 (talk)

Space Quest: Vohaul Strikes Back is a non-commercial fan-made sequel to Sierra's Space Quest series, released in 2011. ==Premise== When a fallen arch-nemesis returns to wreak vengeance on the galaxy, it's up to space janitor Roger Wilco to tread the treacherous ice world of Radon, outwit an army of simian commandos, and lead the indigenous people in a revolution to take back the planet and defeat the diabolical mad scientist Sludge Vohaul. ==Development== Beginning in April 2002, the game was developed by a group of volunteers in their spare time for over nine years. The developers used the free Adventure Game Studio engine, created by Chris Jones. At the time of its release, Vohaul Strikes Back was arguably the largest Space Quest game ever created, likely exceeding each of the games in the original series in terms of gameplay time and volume of content. The game contains approximately: 90 playable rooms 70 speaking characters 8000 lines of dialogue 7700 sprites 50 pieces of music 80 inventory items 60-70 unique ways for Roger Wilco to die As of January 2012, the game does not yet have a voice pack, but production on one is underway. Several authors of Vohaul Strikes Back, most notably Chris Ushko, also worked on another fan-made sequel, Space Quest: Incinerations, which was in development for over six years and released just a few weeks later, in January 2012. ==Reception== On Rock, Paper, Shotgun, Richard Cobbett gave the game a favourable review, noting a "shaky start", but calling the game an "excellent tribute to the series and a very enjoyable game in its own right" that is "funny, surprisingly long, and well worth the download". Cassandra Khaw of IndieGames.com noted that "Though greatly lacking in the voice pack department, Vohaul Strikes Back makes up for it by offering charm, charisma and no small amount of humor". In his review of the game at Adventure Gamers, Rob Murrant pointed out a clash between the background and character art, but mentioned that "Despite the graphical mismatch, once you start playing it’s not off-putting in any way, and once you’re well into the story you’ll barely even notice the two contrasting styles. Combined with an excellent soundtrack and effects, slick point-and-click interface and clever, amusing storyline, there’s little to complain about VSB’s production quality", ending the review with "As it is, Vohaul Strikes Back is an excellent indie release, and one that no Space Quest fan should miss." Jeff Mattas of Shacknews has commented on the early parts of the game by saying "I've only played a short bit of it so far, myself, but from what I can tell, it's well written and funny, and seems to do an adept job at capturing the irreverent style and humor of its six official predecessors." The game currently holds an "Overall Enjoyment" rating of 90% on the Adventure Game Studio website. At the 2011 AGS Awards, the game won the award for Best Non-Player Character. It was also nominated for Best Gameplay, Best Background Art and Best Music. ==References== ==External links== Release trailer on YouTube Facebook page Google+ profile AGS Game Profile 2011 video games Adventure games Fangames Games created using AGS Indie video games Point-and-click adventure games Space Quest Video game sequels Windows games

Earth is a 1990 science fiction novel written by David Brin. The book was nominated for the Hugo and Locus Awards in 1991. ==Plot introduction== Set in the year 2038, the book is a cautionary tale of the harm humans can cause their planet via disregard for the environment and reckless scientific experiments. The book has a large cast of characters and Brin uses them to address a number of environmental issues, including endangered species, global warming, refugees from ecological disasters, ecoterrorism, and the social effects of overpopulation. The plot of the book involves an artificially created black hole which has been lost in the Earth's interior and the attempts to recover it before it destroys the planet. The events and revelations which follow reshape humanity and its future in the universe. It also includes a war pitting most of the Earth against Switzerland, fueled by outrage over the Swiss allowing generations of kleptocrats to hide their stolen wealth in the country's banks. The scope of the story expands vastly as the plot gradually reveals itself, bringing into question the future course—and even the survival—of humanity. ==Predictions== Brin set this novel 50 years in the future from the time he was writing, using the book as an opportunity to predict what technologies might — at that future date — be taken for granted day to day. Three technologies he predicted came to pass within only 8 years of the writing, include a media-centric,

Goshen was a pioneer town in western Whatcom County (approximately 5 miles northeast of Bellingham, and 10 miles south of the US border with Canada). It was a stop on the rail line of the Bellingham Bay and British Columbia Railroad. It no longer exists, yet the Everson-Goshen road is still present. At one point Goshen hoped to compete with Whatcom (now Bellingham) and Seattle for the western depot of the railroad line which was being laid north to Washington State, which would guarantee economic investment and much traffic. Tacoma won the contest. Goshen was a logging and farming community. ==References== Ghost towns in Washington (state) Geography of Whatcom County, Washington

==Real editor== It's nice for Wikipedia to have accomplished editors such as Mr. Rubin! Shawnc ==Citations== This comment in the bio could use a citation: "Rubin went directly from high school to graduate school at Caltech, enrolling simultaneously as an undergraduate." That alone is not very notable. After all, undergrads can take graduate courses. What would be better would be a citation that verified that Rubin was accepted into a graduate maths program straight out of high school. The way it is worded now is ambiguous, unsourced and non-notable. At minimum a citation would help. DrL Hmmm. Actually, you're right. Could matching my High School's web site for the graduation date against the math geneology site help? I can't think of a secondary source for the combination, at the moment. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) Well, actually, I was accepted as both an undergraduate and a graduate student (or, to be precise, a dual graduate/undergraduate student); the idea was that I was to get separate BS and PhD degrees in 6 years. However, I failed enough undergraduate courses that meeting the undergraduate requirements was problamatical.... But there would probably be no RS, as admission records are not public records. Still, there is unlikely to be a secondary source, and, as noted before, a primary sources would not be easily obtained.... — Arthur Rubin | (talk) ==PROFTEST== This whole Erdős number business seems silly. Do people take this seriously? It seems that Erdős wrote around 1500 mathematical papers and most were co-authored. An Erdős number of 2 sold for $127.40 on eBay. Rubin was second author on his paper with Erdős so it’s hard to tell what his role was. Did Rubin himself ever author any significant work? It would be great if someone could dig up some sources to get this bio on track. As it stands now, this article does not seem to meet the PROFTEST. DrL Actually, I don't think it meets PROFTEST. The first paragraph seems to provide adequate notability, noting I'm one of five 4-time Putnam exam "winners". If you don't like it, suggest an AfD. (And, BTW, the Putnam exam site provides a secondary source that I was an undergraduate, as it's only open to undergraduates. My years as a graduate student have a secondary source at the math geneology web site — and this comment falls under one of the execeptions to AUTO, that of correcting errors.) — Arthur Rubin | (talk) ... and the Erdős number sale never went through.... — Arthur Rubin | (talk) Agreed. Has he contributed anything noteworthy to mathematics? Any noteworthy papers as a mathematician? What does he do today, to begin with? Is he a professor of mathematics at a university? That is, while his achievement in winning the Putnams is somewhat interesting, is he noteworthy for anything else? 66.108.106.230 Allen Roth :I don't claim to meet PROF, as I'm presently working in industry, rather than as an academic. One could argue that having an Erdos number of 1 might, in itself, meet PROF. As for my most notable results — where could we find a RS as to what was a notable result? I feel that some of the results in joint papers with my late mother were notable in the field of statements of set theory related to the Axiom of choice, but we didn't spend much time allocating credit as to who wrote what. :It's also been suggested that I should post my CV and publication list here and let others determine what is notable. I'm not sure that's in keeping with AUTO. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Arthur Rubin (talk • contribs) 15:35, September 23, 2006 (UTC) — Arthur Rubin | (talk) "Rubin was second author on his paper with Erdős so it’s hard to tell what his role was." Too late to be useful, now, but the authors of mathematics papers are almost always listed in alphabetical order, not by perceived importance of contribution. Dricherby (talk) == Rubins actually contributes to wikipedia as an admin == Thats quite cool. although i dont vloody get why he doesnt expand this, like add a picture, creat couple of sub headings, you know get the ball rolling. See AUTO. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) Yes, Arthur Rubin wrote about himself through sock puppets. He is violating Wikipedia's basic policy on conflict of interest. 202.57.48.69 (talk) Can any other Admin correct this? Rubin has secretly written about himself, and tried to fool us all! 202.57.48.70 (talk) Don't be trolling. Arthur has said no such thing. == It's all about me. == Other facts that might be worthy of inclusion in the article, if references can be found. To avoid even the appearance of AUTO, I'm only going to correct information in the article itself, but concensus seems to be I can add information here and let others decide whether it's notable and adequately sourced. (I added my year of birth at the request of the creator of the article, confirming I didn't mind its appearance. I think he/she had the information.) Third place tie in the first USA Mathematical Olympiad (1972). Listed in 2007 Marquis Who's Who in America (even if the majority of my correspondance with them is their attempts to get me to buy a copy of the book.) Ran for California State Assembly (55th district) on the Libertarian Party ticket in 1982? (I think it was '82. It could have been '84. I'm sure it was the 55th district.) I'm sure point 1 is listable, and point 3 can be referenced when the book is published. Point 4 can probably be referenced from the California Secretary of State's records, although records that old may not be online. If I find a cite for point 2, I'll add it. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) Added citation for point 2 above. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) == Me again == I've uploaded a picture at Arthur_Rubin_self.jpg. Please edit it (or a low-resolution image) into the article. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) Done ˉˉanetode╦╩ == Is there any non-trivial published work about this author? == N: A topic is notable if it has been the subject of multiple , non-trivial published works with sources independent of the subject itself and each other. Non-trivial means I think more than just a mention in the listing or a table (wiki is not a directory). Also, how does a published paper or patent qualifies an author for notability? It qualifies the subject of that paper/patent. And yes, I would not even bother writing this if you did not do OR when qualifying bios (with multiple published non-trivial works in multiple journals and with multiple authors) as no sense theory. Just exposing bias in your edits. Lakinekaki Actually, there was an article in Time on me, probably in 1966 or 1967. But I'm not sure I could find it again; my mother's "brag" file disappeared in one of our moves. However, the articles about the first USA Mathematical Olympiad (where I'm one of eight), and the Putnam exam (one of five or six) may qualify. As for your alleged multiple authors, I don't feel that multiple articles in conspiracy theory journals by conspiracy theorists about conspiracy theorists theorists, or intelligent desgin journals by intelligent design proponents about intelligent design proponents necessarily qualify as notable publications .— Arthur Rubin | (talk) You should cite the Time article then, and just put tag as someone will find it eventually (maybe in Time archivesThat makes a huge difference, in my opinion, for this article. As far as your blurb about conspiracies is concerned: Cybernetics and Systems, Kybernetes , Nonlinear Dynamics Psychology and Life Sciences, Complexity[http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/cgi-bin/jabout/38804/EditorialBoard.html, etc. As you say, they are all together in this. Lakinekaki I tried to find article in the Time archive but failed. Maybe you could do the search, as you may remember some keywords used in it. Lakinekaki I would not say it is non-trivial, but it is funny stuff. Not sure if it is this particular Arthur Rubin, but it has some of his flavor. Quote is found here http://fumbling.com/phloem/quotes.txt "There cannot be freedom without equality and here we do not have equality." Yes, we do. All NSPs have the equal rights to filter out your posts. One might wish that more would do so. A classic. Quite droll, really. Trivial, and droll. Planetaryjim (talk) ==Really not notable personality== He really is not notable personality. He looks as a self-made "expert of everything". I would like to see his scientific papers on the web, especially from the last 20 years period. The article includes unsourced materials and should be nominated for deletion asap. In this controversial context his role of administrator has to be verified. On the other hand I see too much Rubin's personal explanations on this page - who is the real author/editor of such short biography? As you should be able to determine, my only edit to the article was in adding my year of birth, as BLP#Privacy of birthdays suggests that non-public figures should be able to determine whether information which could lead to identity theft is to be included in the article. I have commented on this talk page, and on the AfD, possibly more than I should have, but I have not edited the article, nor suggested edits except on this talk page and the AfD. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) I'd tend to agree with Fedelis. This article appears to be nothing more than shameless self promotion and his role as an administrator here should be carefully reviewed. An American mathematician with a Ph.D. who ranked in the "five top" undergraduates several times in a series of competitions is certainly not noteworthy for inclusion in an encyclopedia. Knowledge Enabler :Being a 4-time Putnam Fellow is clearly notable, there being 7 (according to the current article) among all math undergraduates in the US and Canada in the past 80 years, which seems an approriate "universe" for the selection. I had nothing to do with its creation and little to do with its editing. On the other hand Fedelis has one edit (here) and Knowledge Enabler has 2 here Arthur Rubin‎, and 4 mainspace edits, all reverted in part by me. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) It is NOT clear that being a 4-time Putnam Fellow is notable in the specific wikipedic sense: exactly this issue is being debated on the page of another 4-time Fellow, Gabriel Carroll. Moreover, not every four-time fellow has a wikipedia page. (However, one should not read too much into who's got a wikipedia page since one of the pageless four time winners, Bjorn Poonen, is a leading mathematician by anyone's standards.) Let us remember that the Putnam Exam is a contest for young students and not for adults. Putnam results are obviously of some interest, as evidenced by the fact that we remember and keep track of who won the exam more than 60 years ago, but there is no clear precedent that any level of success in contests at the high school and college level is wikipedia-worthy. If such pages exist only to restate contest information that is (or should be) available elsewhere, there is little value added. In my opinion, the present page falls under this category: while it is interesting to know a bit about everyone (and I wonder whether the idea of deleting insufficiently notable people will persist on wikipedia), there is nothing in the article that really justifies its existence. It certainly raises the suspicion that it would not exist without Dr. Rubin's wikipedic involvement, both in general and specific to his own page. In particular I think that writing in directly to suggest further information about oneself to be included in the article and to weigh in on one's own notability is...well, unethical is too strong (there is no harm being done here) but it is a bit unseemly, no? Plclark Plclark Not notable is right. Self-aggrandizing, yes. Jeeny (talk) Hey folks, feel free to nominate this article for deletion. Since it already survived one deletion attempt, putting on it is the wrong way to go, so don't try that. Feel free to review Arthur's editor and admin role, but note that that has nothing to do with this article and this is the wrong place to discuss that. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) Why would you view it as "Self-aggrandizing"? As far as i can tell the subject of the article has not made significant edits and the creator of the article created several articles, or was editing other articles for Putnam scholars at the same time. Thus, the original motive for creating this article appears to be to document Putnum scholars, NOT for vanity reasons. David D. (Talk) I don't know anything about Putnam prize, but winner didn't get attention in secondary sources. As there are no secondary sources, and in line with WP:N, this article should be deleted, unless if Time magazine article reference mentioned above is provided. Lakinekaki (talk) == erdos number 1? American Mathematical Society dosen't think so. == http://www.ams.org/mathscinet/collaborationDistance.html?group_source=189017&AuthorTargetName=rubin%2C+a&group_target=&Submit=Search AMS sais there is no path. Maybe because cited paper is from a conference, and not a journal: Proc. West Coast Conf. on Combinatorics, Graph Theory and Computing, Congressus Numerantium XXVI: Or is it a journal? Anyhow, some comment about this would be appreciated. ps. this is how a search result looks like for an author with Erdos number = 1 (

The Arizona Pioneers' Home, also known as the Home for Arizona Pioneers and State Hospital for Disabled Miners, is a retirement home in Prescott, Arizona, established to provide housing for early Arizona pioneers. The home is operated and funded by the state of Arizona. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. ==History== In the early 1900s, the idea for a retirement home in the Arizona Territory originated with three prominent Arizonans: Major A. J. Doran, a judge and territorial representative; rancher Johnny Duke; and businessman Frank M. Murphy, the brother of former Arizona territorial governor Oakes Murphy. They thought that Arizona should provide a rest home for aging settlers who moved to Arizona to help establish the area. Doran sponsored a bill to fund the idea, presented to the 24th Arizona Territorial Legislature in 1907, but it was not passed. Journalist Sharlot Hall handled clerical duties regarding the bill. Submitted again in 1909, both houses of the legislature passed the bill, and Territorial Governor Joseph Henry Kibbey signed the bill into law on March 11, 1909. Sited on a prominent granite hill overlooking Prescott's town square, Murphy put up of his land for the building. Judge T.G. Norris later donated adjacent land for expansion. To design the building, a female architect was selected: W.S. Elliott of Prescott, who had come to prominence for her work on St. Joseph's Academy. The three-story retirement home, built of brick with wooden porticos, was completed at a cost of $25,000. Doors opened on February 1, 1911, with Doran as supervisor. Doran presided for the first year, during which time Arizona became a state. When first built, the rest home could hold 40 men. It was open to destitute men who were at least 60 years old and who had been living in Arizona for 25 years. In 1916, a private endowment provided for expansion with a women's wing added to house 20 women. The building was opened to disabled miners in 1927. Big Nose Kate, born Mary Katherine Horony, was admitted to the home in 1931 after six months of applications, finally appealing successfully to her longtime friend, governor George W. P. Hunt. Kate, once the common-law wife of Doc Holliday and later the wife of blacksmith George M. Cummings for only a year, had first gained notoriety as the madam of a brothel. She stayed at the rest home until her death in 1940 at the age of 89. In 1947, Life magazine featured the home and its residents in a colorful story titled, "Old Pioneers' Home: Retired to state home, oldsters spit, cuss and fight with canes". Devoted primarily to a description of the quirky characters living there, the article said that the state-sponsored rest home was the only one in the U.S., not counting one in the Territory of Alaska built to house aging Klondike Gold Rushers. Superintendent Jack Sills said that applicants were required to have lived in Arizona for 35 years, and that residents were given $7.50 each month to spend as they wished, usually on alcohol and tobacco. The Life article was described in detail in 1974 in a writeup published in The Prescott Courier in which reporter Claudette Simpson said that Life angered some locals for its crudely humorous portrayal of idiosyncratic and cantankerous residents, the humor delivered at the expense of Prescott's dignity. In 2010, Superintendent Ted Ihrman said that the Life piece had added "some historical significance to the home." ==Today== The expanded complex of buildings can hold 155 residents, and was at 71% capacity in October 2010. Its operating expenses are provided mainly by about $5 million each year from the state, and by some residents who pay a portion of their own care. Applicants must have lived in Arizona for 50 years.

==Use of new Africa Articles search results== I patrol this when bored (am I a fun guy or what?) of working on Africa Project articles. I find it very complete, with maybe %5 false positives. I start a fair number of articles and I tend to find them here. It's quite useful for stub sorting. If I can think of suggestions I'll post them, but you might put a notice up at WikiProject_Africa, as it is advertised there, and see how others use it. T L Miles (talk) ==List of adventive wild plants of Israel== This is a false positive. Cheers, Gidip (talk) .
