All islands are uninhabited, but are regularly visited for scientific purposes and research.
Once a year, filmmakers and journalists are permitted to work on the island (for a fee), but they are not allowed to interfere with the private lives of the islanders.
Who are the islanders? Does it mean the occasional visitors from Tristan de Cunha? The wildlife on the island? If the former, what exactly is it that they do that a journalist or filmmaker might interfere with? 152.13.99.132 13:56, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Old text

message: I saw this on the news and found a article about it at http://news4colorado.com/topstories/local_story_055200531.html
They talk about how Churchill copyied a Thomas E. Mails painting and sold it.  And they comfornted Churchill about it.
It is a really good article but I am not that good at editing a page to put this in Churchill's article so if someone thinks this article is good and wants to add it to Churchill's article it would be awesome.
This page in its present condition is highly problematical. This entry wrongly places the present controversy as the central and preeminent feature of the topic, Ward Churchill.
The original author left out nearly half of Ward Churchill's books which I needed to fill in.
Also, why does the first line define Ward Churchill as a"radical leftist"? Would it not be much more appropriate and accurate to rather label him an "Indigenist" as he himself has done?
:If he is NOT a "radical Leftist," then is he a "radical Centrist" or a "radical right-winger"?  No.  He is a radical Leftist, so we will call him that.  He simply made up the word "indigenist."  Why should we call him a name that he made up???  That is ludicrous.  Hey, I know, let's call him a "Ludicrist" because he is a clown and I just made up the word.  Yeah, that's it.  Let's call him a "radical ludicrist."  No, I'm wrong.  Since he is fake Indian. Let's call him a "radical Wannabeist."  He can be the Chief of the Wannabeist Indians.  The guy lies about his heritage, he makes claims that he is member of the Creek Indians, then people find out that is NOT true so he starts claiming that he is a member of the Cherokee Nation, but the Cherokee Nation will NOT recognize him because he is NOT an Indian so he starts saying that he is Keetoowah, they make him a honorary member because they think that he will help them get federal recognition, but he starts to mis-use that honorary title by telling people that he REALLY is an Indian so the Keetoowah's kick him out, and now he runs around and makes up a word, "Indigenist" and you want to call him that just because HE says that he is one!!!!!! Let's just say that he can be the Chief of the Wannabeists.-----Keetoowah 14:52, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

replies: text:  Errr I guess I could try to create such a gadget, but community consensus would be required to create a user group with upload_by_url or to add that right to an existing user group. Perhaps it could be added to the file mover user group which already deals with files. On dewiki there are Importeure who have the "importupload" right, I don't know if that means they could also import from Commons. If they can, that would possibly be a better solution.

"Parque Universitario" does not refer, strictly speaking, to La Casona, but to the park it faces (and partially surrounds). It is strongly associated
in the collective mind with La Casona, but I haven't heard it being used as a metonym in quite the same way that, say, "Harvard Yard" is used
to refer to part of Harvard's campus (mutatis mutandi).
The last sentence in the same section does not make that much sense as its stands. The meaning should be: when UNMSM was in La Casona, San Fernando was also downtown, but elsewhere; when the rest of UNMSM moved to the Ciudad Universitaria, San Fernando stayed put where it was (if I am not
very mistaken).
