Needless deletion
Somebody deleted my footnote on the Guts and Auron similarities. First off, they are far more profound than those between those and Sanjuro. However, unlike Sanjuro, which is an -internet rumor-, Yoshinori Kitase admitted in a 1997 Famitsu article to being a big fan of ""Berserk"" at that time, in and of itself a heavy influence of Final Fantasy VII and countless inspirations for other Japanese creators/artists. To strike out my notes on Guts and yet keep a COMPLETELY baseless internet ""Rumor"" is absurd. I'm not going to delete the yojimbo article, but I better see some explanations and fast.

Internet Defamation Suit Ends With Defense Verdict
http://www.law.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=OpenMarket/Xcelerate/View&c=LawArticle&cid=1028320303259&t=LawArticleTech
John Council
Texas Lawyer 08-05-2002
In one of the first trials in the country to
address Internet defamation, a Dallas County,
Texas, jury last week rejected a $700 million
suit by an Internet company that claimed it
was harmed by negative electronic messages
posted by an employee of a competing company.
ZixIt, a Dallas Internet company, filed ZixIt
Corp. v. Visa International, et al. in 1999,
alleging it was harmed by Paul Guthrie, then
a vice president with Visa. ZixIt alleged in
its suit that Guthrie posted more than 400
anonymous messages, many of them negative,
about ZixIt on the Yahoo Finance ZixIt Internet
message board, causing ZixIt's stock price to
drop.
The suit also alleged that the postings
destroyed the company's ability to market
its ZixCharge Internet transaction
authorization system, which allows consumers
to make purchases without revealing their
credit card numbers to merchants. Visa has
a similar Internet payment system.
ZixIt alleged that the postings caused its
stock price to plummet. Had the product
been successful, the company believed it
would have been worth more than $1 billion,
according to lawyers involved in the case.
On July 31, a jury in Judge Merrill Hartman's
192nd District Court found that ZixIt's
product was not harmed by the postings.
Neal Manne and Kenneth McNeil, lawyers from
Houston's Susman Godfrey who represented
ZixIt at trial, did not return calls for
comment by press time.
"The company hasn't made any decision about
an appeal," says Cindy Lawrence, a ZixIt
spokeswoman. "The outcome of the lawsuit
doesn't have any effect on our future
products and services in e-messaging."
GETTING GRADED
Visa's lawyers alleged that Guthrie acted on
his own and had a right to free speech, and
that Guthrie's Internet postings had no
effect on ZixIt's stock. Guthrie has since
left Visa, lawyers for the company say.
Guthrie was not a defendant in the case.
However, his interests in the case were
represented by Todd Noonan, an attorney in
Sacramento, Calif.'s Stevens & O'Connell.
Noonan was recovering from surgery last
week and was unavailable for comment.
"I think people believe whether you
succeed or fail [is] because of what you
do and not what other people do to you.
Internet companies didn't succeed for all
sorts of reasons," says Jeff Tillotson, a
partner in Dallas' Lynn, Tillotson & Pinker,
who defended Visa at trial.
ZixIt's case was a hard sell to the jury,
especially with the reality of the economy,
Tillotson says.
"Everyone knows that the stock market
has fallen and the trouble with Internet
companies. I think the jury took that into
account," Tillotson says.
There were lessons to be learned from the
Internet defamation trial, says Mike Lynn,
who also represented Visa at trial. Even
though message boards are considered a
protected form of free speech, that freedom
won't prevent a company from being dragged
into court if its employee blasts another
company on the Internet, Lynn says.
"A company can be responsible for what an
employee posts on a message board," Lynn
says. "The courts have said you're entitled
to go to a jury to determine whether there
are damages as a result of that. The law is
very odd, not mature, [and] damage theories
are not mature."
The nature of the case also added an
interesting twist to the trial, Tillotson
says. Many of those who posted messages on
the board attended the trial and posted
comments about the daily proceedings
throughout the three-week trial, he says.
"It was apparent to everyone that many of
the people who posted on these message boards
were watching the trial," Tillotson says.
"It really was wild. The lawyers felt like
they were being graded."

First off, we are not discussing 2015, we are discussing 2016; that much should be obvious. Second, the fact that we've always done things a certain way does not erase the possibility of improving our process. I would argue, and I'd hope you would agree, that these articles have only gotten better over time. That improvement did not happen because we sat on our hands and were content with the level of quality we had already reached. Third, I do not think Lotus/Renault and Marussia/Manor are relevant situations to each other. With Lotus, we know the Renault takeover is going to be done, and we know the name will be changed. Both have been confirmed. With Marussia, as F1 fans we know the name was only kept to keep their FOM TV rights money, and we have every reason to believe it will be changed now that Marussia is entirely out of the picture, but that's nonetheless original research that isn't fit for this article. I now agree that I was wrong to fight for the Renault name, but Lotus is equally wrong. We have no specific confirmation of the former, but we do have confirmation that it won't be the latter. So what we know for sure is very little - in fact, I believe all we know is the drivers and the engine. That that's why it should say TBA-Lotus. Additionally, think of it from this perspective: a person reads a news article announcing that the Renault takeover has been completed. They read another story from the head of Renault Sport indicating the Lotus team name will be dropped. These articles are from reliable sources and feature direct quotes. They then come here and see...Lotus. Their only reaction is going to be that Wikipedia is clearly wrong. And they're right to think that. And if you DON'T agree that reliably reported quotes from the head of organizations are good enough sources for Wikipedia, then there's quite a lot that needs to be removed from this article. You can't have it both ways. | toxic | en |

As I mentioned earlier, I support this move.
I understand Mark Marathon's concern, and appreciate his clarification, 'he doesn't care enough to oppose the move.' On FAO and peer reviewed journals, I am a regular user of google scholar and such resources, including for past contributions to wiki's sorghum and other staple food articles. Here are a few FAO articles, from southeast Asia to Africa, some in multiple languages, where the authors use Sorghum in the English language title/summary to mean commercial/crop.
Training manual for sweet sorghum
A catalogue of passport and characterization data of sorghum, pearl millet and finger millet germplasm from Zimbabwe
Cultural practices for maize, sorghum and millets
Sorghum and millets in human nutrition - This FAO source supports Mark's comment that Sorghum crop is known by many names, etc. in chapter 1; the authors, nevertheless, use sorghum, and not the other names, in the title and various chapters to mean commercial/crop sorghum. | toxic | en |

::::: Incidentally, the above poster is correct about Dadrian - every peer review I have read of him concludes he simply makes things up, leaves the reader with a false impression with inaccurate paraphrasing and carefully placed ellipsing, creating 'statements' that the actual text leaves no allowance for - Lewy provided countless specific examples of this that prove empirically that it was not a case of Dadrian being lazy or mistaken, but a case of him simply trying to mislead. Yapp elaborates on this by complaining that Dadrian approaches the issue like a prosecution lawyer rather than a historian. Others have accused him of using ""selective sources"" and ""misleading quotations"".
::::: But you would rather believe him that Bernard Lewis, who was the victim of a private prosecution in France in which the court, in acknowledging they were not nearly qualified to disagree with his historical views, instead fined him to the tune of 1 franc for having hurt Armenians feelings by not having presented all the evidence in making his remarks. It was a newspaper interview, how much evidence was he expected to present in answering a question? This is more to the shame of France than to Bernard Lewis. As any internet search will show, the single most peer respected Middle Eastern historian today is Bernard Lewis. This you cannot change - you can set your pressure groups onto Google and Altavista and Yahoo to try to suppress this if you wish, but you cannot change it.
::::: If the French verdict was taken seriously, would Dick Cheney had said of a 'genocide denier' - ""You simply cannot find a greater authority on Middle Eastern history, classical Islamic civilization, the Ottoman Empire"".
::::: To the US's credit, they listen to the views of their historians when addressing matters of history - let us not forget that France employed Gilles Veinstein then completely ignored his historical advice when it was not politically expediant to adhere to it.
::::: In denying the influence and respect that Bernard Lewis enjoys among his field, it becomes apparent you really are not interested in the history of this any more than Dadrian - just in believing what you want to believe." | toxic | en |

No, that is not quite what he said. Under the context that the ""Sharpton's and Jackson's"" tell black Americans how to think he said. I think black Americans are starting to think more and more for themselves. Under the premise from which made his comment there should be no controversy surrounding that comment. From the wording his toughts are that black Americans do think for themselves, and are listening less and less to Sharpton and Jackson. MM does a nice job of taking that out of context as well by stating that quote after the ""M'fer"" comment. " | toxic | en |

With regards to your talk page archiving here and at Talk:Cherokee society, most generally, talk page archives contain months of content, not single comments. I would reconsider your archiving system and move all of the old comments out onto this main page. Archive every few months or set number of comments, like every 25 or 50 comments. Thanks. — talk
I do my archiving in this manner because I simply detest going to a talkpage and going through mountains of comments. It is a waste of time. I may need to have more comments on each archive page and can willing do that. However, keeping talkpages tidy is a pet project of mine.
I would argue that this actually makes review talk pages more complicated, because you must open several different pages in order to see the progression of comments on a talk page. If this is your desire though, please only do so in your user space and leave talk page archiving in the main space to convention of larger comment blocks. Thanks. — talk
I can go along with what you're saying. Usually if I have a mountain of comments to read I most likely will not read them. Going to another page just makes it easier for my mind to comprehend. Of course I have medical reasons for this that the rest of you may not have to deal with. But I will not go into that unless someone inquires. I'll gladly keep my archive procedures to my own user space.
Merkey article
Please take over my edits on the Jeffrey Vernon Merkey article and review the article for POV and Wikipedia:Reliable sources. The article fails both. Be careful, there are a large number of vandals
who will engage in revert wars related to the article, and there are several adminitrators violating wikipedia
policies on primary and secondary sources by supporting them. Be on your best behavior. I am going to focus on other articles since they typically resort to sock puppet allegations to drive editors from the article. We need more evidence on their conduct and edit history to review whether the article should be dropped from the indigeneous peoples article.
Waya sahoni. Who is Jeffrey Vernon Merkey? I've seen the name and that you've been accused of being this person. Before I go into this article please tell me about him. My email is MythicWeb
He is one of our brothers and a citizen of the Cherokee Nation. The people on that article are members of SCOX, an Anti-Native-American Group who post hate speech against Indian Peoples. These people have been posting a lot of negative content and POV pushing about him. They acuse anyone of sockpuppetry who goes near the article. Thanks for policing my user page. Please feel free to revert it again they are creating sockpuppets accounts and are warring with us over some discussion I posted to the Talk page. A very rowdy group. They also accussed you of sockpuppetry and of being Merkey.
No one ever accused Bookofsecrets of being Merkey. I pointed out his admission and apology for past sockpuppetry and suggested that he should teach you to abandon that behavior. The Yahoo SCOX bulletin board discusses the SCO Group stock and related issues, including Merkey's aid to SCO's cause and his business connections to them. Claiming that they are an Anti-Native-American Group who post hate speech against Indian Peoples is both libelous untrue and silly. —
My apologies for originally using a term which might imply a legal threat. I will try to police my posts better in the future. —
You wrote (on page) ""I have been informed by Waya sahoni that he is not a sockpuppet. Please use Good Faith."". Please, keep in mind that we have proof that he is the very same Jeffrey Vernon Merkey about whom a federal judge wrote (see ):
124. In fact, however, Merkey is not just prone to exaggeration, he also is and can be deceptive, not only to his adversaries, but also to his own partners, his business as | toxic | en |

sacramento - - the state senate approved a plan yesterday to keep southern california edison from falling into bankruptcy , but the bill crafted as an alternative to the pact between the utility and gov . gray davis faces an uncertain future .
the bill by democratic sens . richard polanco of los angeles and byron sher of palo alto would give the state a five - year option to buy the utility ' s transmission lines and would have the state guarantee no more than $ 2 . 5 billion of the utility ' s debt . edison amassed an estimated $ 3 . 5 billion in debt as wholesale electricity prices increased but retail rates remained frozen .
the assembly was also attempting to craft its own version of a deal last night , but political maneuvering and fears of repeating the same kind of mistakes that led to california ' s botched 1996 deregulation legislation haunted lawmakers .
davis continued to apply pressure on lawmakers to put a bill on his desk before aug . 15 , a date set in the original agreement between davis and edison .
lawmakers were scheduled to start their monthlong summer recess last night , but failure to pass the state budget meant no one was leaving town .
" it ' s a firm deadline , which means this issue has to be fully resolved prior to the end of the legislative recess , " davis said of the aug . 15 date .
davis suggested that a conference committee or working group could be used to iron out differences between the two bills , but it is unclear whether that could be accomplished in the next few days .
" i have problems with both bills , " davis said . " i am heartened by the fact that there ' s a bill moving in each house . "
both houses struggled to garner enough votes to get their respective bills to a floor vote , and many lawmakers indicated that they were not happy with the process .
in the senate , 22 democrats voted for the edison plan , while four democrats and all 13 republicans voted no .
sen . jackie speier , d - hillsborough , said she would vote for the bill in its current form , but not if any substantial changes are made .
" the legislature is ill - equipped to try to craft a deal , " she said . " this particular measure - - and only this one - - has the intent and clarity to protect ratepayers . i ' m leery of the bill going to the assembly and being cannibalized . "
the senate bill authorizes edison to issue $ 2 . 5 billion in bonds to pay off alternative energy producers and their banks . the bonds would be paid off through increased rates charged edison ' s largest customers and would not cover the $ 1 billion edison owes out - of - state generators .
edison maintains that the senate bill will not make the company creditworthy , which would put it back in the position of buying power .
the state has been spending upward of $ 50 million a day on power since january , and davis and lawmakers want the rescue plan in place so that the utility can once again begin buying power . there is also hope that any deal would be used as a way to get pacific gas & electric co . out of bankruptcy .
in the assembly , two competing measures put pressure on leaders to change their bill . the rescue plan by assembly speaker robert hertzberg of sherman oaks and assemblyman fred keeley , d - boulder creek , was undergoing changes to garner more support .
some of the changes included eliminating the purchase of transmission lines and taking municipal utilities out of the deal .
assemblywoman elaine alquist , d - san jose , one of the undecided members on the edison agreement , said the original bill was too complex .
" it ' s a cleaner bill , " alquist said . " i think it comes down to whether this does not affect our constituents and there is not a link to pg & e . i would say i ' m tentatively satisfied . "
alquist and other democrats said they were concerned about the rushed nature of the edison negotiations . only a few members of the assembly - - all former state senators now in the lower house - - voted to approve the 1996 legislation , abl 890 , that brought deregulation to california .
assemblyman joseph simitian , d - palo alto , said he gave a courtesy vote to the hertzberg - keeley plan in the appropriations committee , in order to get the measure to the assembly floor and continue debate .
" as we ' ve learned from the experience of abl 890 , the devil is in the details . i have a lot of questions , " simitian said . " the difficulty is that very little gets done here until there is a deadline , and then once there is a deadline , too much gets done . "
hertzberg acknowledged that some assembly members were afraid the bill was getting rushed , but he said lawmakers are well - informed about the energy crisis and its details . he said they have had 200 hours of caucus meetings and countless hearings on the crisis .
a wild card in the assembly ' s plan was a bill by assemblyman rod wright , d - los angeles , that garnered republican support . the so - called " straight bailout " would give edison its $ 3 . 5 billion through a $ 2 - a - month fee levied on utility ratepayers . it was stuck in the assembly appropriations committee .

Rectangle method and Riemann sum should be merged into Riemann integral. Rectangle method is about the method of finding a Riemann sum; it is not a long article and could be its own section in Riemann integral. Riemann sum is the same thing as Riemann integral, with a simpler name. (See above for earlier discussion). ''''''C₪T | toxic | en |

Beaver Co. PA markers
There are only two possibilities for the marker you showed me: it is either a local marker or the PHMC database is incomplete. After combing through the PHMC database, I have to say it seemed very up-to-date and complete, even listing very old missing markers.The shape and design of that marker suggests it is either not a PA state historical marker or it is a very old one.

WD, it seems to me that the fact of Ritter's arrest is well-established and well-sourced. CNN is a reliable source.

Hi there Auswide. Sorry I didn't reply to your first message. I didn't see it, for some odd reason. You know what technology can be like.
Hooray! The airport is open. Yes, it was such an embarassment. We were the laughing stock of the rest of Australia!
At least it is open now, though. But I heard that yesterday (Tues.) the Virgin airlines system crashed and everyone had to wait ages to board the planes and check in.
Have you seen it yet? I have. I had to go there on the Saturday (the second day it was open) because my grandpa had a flight. It really is beautiful. Nothing at all like the little tin shed before. It isn't really that big but it is really nice, and big enough for Adelaide, at least. I'm so glad we are on par with the other capital cities now. You should really go and have a look at it.
I took some photos while I was there. Might add them later. If you go could you possibly take a photo of the new airport from the outside? I forgot to do this. Thanks. | toxic | en |

You know it's stupid - I know it's stupid. Nonetheless, Microsoft has tried
to spread FUD about the viral nature of the GPL to make CEO/CIO level people
(often not the most technically clueful, even the CIOs) fear that if they so
much as use a Linux box, as, say, a print server, they'll have to make their
company's entire IP public. (I don't think Microsoft said precisely what I

Basic concept of GPS
A GPS receiver calculates its position by precisely timing the signals sent by GPS satellites high above the Earth. Each satellite continually transmits messages that include
the time the message was transmitted
satellite position at time of message transmission
The receiver uses the messages it receives to determine the transit time of each message and computes the distance to each satellite using the speed of light. Each of these distances and satellites' locations define a sphere. The receiver is on the surface of each of these spheres when the distances and the satellites' locations are correct. These distances and satellites' locations are used to compute the location of the receiver using the navigation equations. This location is then displayed, perhaps with a moving map display or latitude and longitude; elevation or altitude information may be included. Many GPS units show derived information such as direction and speed, calculated from position changes.
In typical GPS operation, four or more satellites must be visible to obtain an accurate result. Four sphere surfaces typically do not intersect. Because of this, it can be said with confidence that when the navigation equations are solved to find an intersection, this solution gives the position of the receiver along with the difference between the time kept by the receiver's on-board clock and the true time-of-day, thereby eliminating the need for a very large, expensive, and power hungry clock. The very accurately computed time is used only for display or not at all in many GPS applications, which use only the location. A number of applications for GPS do make use of this cheap and highly accurate timing. These include time transfer, traffic signal timing, and synchronization of cell phone base stations.
Although four satellites are required for normal operation, fewer apply in special cases. If one variable is already known, a receiver can determine its position using only three satellites. For example, a ship or aircraft may have known elevation. Some GPS receivers may use additional clues or assumptions such as reusing the last known altitude, dead reckoning, inertial navigation, or including information from the vehicle computer, to give a (possibly degraded) position when fewer than four satellites are visible.

Ringerfan23: I just want you to let you know that you appear to alienate a lot of people on Wikipedia. Perhaps the problem can be best summarized by your own comment on this page when you said that you thought about the issue and came to agree with the rest of the group. In light of your failure to think about the issue in advance, your actions were shameful. When faced with a group of people who reached consensus, you still had the audacity to have the page locked to reflect your (poorly reasoned) point of view. These are the actions of a stubborn child who wants his way and completely contradictory to what Wikipedia is about. I think you should grow up, recognize that your positions are often incorrect, and defer to the democratic process. Seriously, why do you think your opinion is so important that your beliefs should outweigh a consensus? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.13.207.186 " | toxic | en |

==Lee Gerhard==
In the discussion on currentness of research, Lee Gerhard's name came up as one who might be excluded. Kim Peterson linked to a google scholar search that shows recent publications. I've looked a bit closer at these. To sum up: all his journal papers have been in AAPG Journal (American Association of Petroleum Geologists). His geo papers span 1971-82. His recent writings in the same journal have all been on arguing against Kyoto and minimizing GHGs as drivers vs. solar.
Here's a link to a search on the AAPG journal site showing his writings:
http://aapgbull.geoscienceworld.org/cgi/search?field_name=fulltext&field;_value=&andorexacttitle;=and&author1;=gerhard&fmonth;=Mar&fyear;=1921&tmonth;=Mar&tyear;=2007&RESULTFORMAT;=1&hits;=10&sortspec;=relevance&sendit;=Search
His geo writings are both long ago and not related to climate (they're about finding oil, as that's the area of science this journal covers.) His recent writings don't appear to be original research on climate so much as commentary. He's definitely a skeptic, but if we were sticking to people who publish on the science of climate, I'd have trouble justifying his inclusion.
I read through the powerpoint linked by his entry, and he assembles lots of charts from other people's research with his own read on what they mean. Slide 23 uses a pie chart I recognize from a quite dodgy skeptic site I recently looked into, which had very fishy numbers claiming that two-thirds of the rise in CO2 from 280ppm to today's 380ppm was natural, not anthropogenic. That's just nuts of course, but it underlies the 0.28% anthropogenic share of GHEffect the pie chart claims. (95% water vapour, 4.72% volcanoes, ocean life and animals)
Anyway, I feel Gerhard is pretty borderline. He's still publishing, but not from direct research of his own; he's just putting up other people's graphs and discussing how he reads them. | toxic | en |

Once one goes beyond the level of, say, The National Enquirer, the issue is not whether the source is reliable for any particular fact so much as whether the source is overweighting material that tends to attract more mass market interest. Wikipedia was not created in order to just attract eyeballs. The problem with, say, The Fox Nation, and The Huffington Post, in other words, is not that they lean right or left, respectively, but that they have a populist lean such that some discretion is in order. For whatever reason, there is a lot more editor interest in adding (often without context), say, what O'Donnell said about mice with human brains on TV than there is interest in adding what a more ""boring"" politician like Mitch Daniels said to The Economist. And there is undoubtedly more reader interest in O'Donnell than in Daniels as well. But our obligation here is to be encyclopedic. The Encyclopedia Britannica is often found in academic libraries where it is read by stuffy people who are more interested in an informative read than an entertaining one. Beyond this, one has to ask how many quotes of this sort even Fox News or HuffPo would have if they were to have a single story on O'Donnell, which is what we are constructing here. All this to say that an edit that introduced this quote would be considerably more likely to have a consensus supporting its inclusion if it replaced some other controversial, widely criticized or ridiculed remark by the article subject as opposed to adding to them.
