message: It is amazing how quickly any mention of the Shias in this and other parts of Saudi Arabia is removed from here. Not only in Saudi Arabia, but also here in the cyber-space, the truth about the religious identity of the citizens are glossed over. Until 2003, the invasion of Iraq and the liberation of the Shias there, no mention of the Shias could be made in or outside of the Saudi Arabia without serious ramifications to the person. The Hasa/Ahsa district--one of the oldest centers of Shiism in the Arabian Peninsula, cannot be stated to have any Shias on the pages of Wiki without the statement being quickly removed and replaced with either blank or some abusive states about the Shias (the last time, the vandal who changed the information on Ethnography of the region, mentioned that there were some of the "ghulats" (apostates) still living in the area!

There are many other photographs about Al-Ahsa Oasis on wiki.Commons, for example:

message: Дьячок, уменьшительное от дьяк, диакон - название лиц, не входящих всостав церковной иерархии, но поставленных на церк. служение (у грековanagnvsthV - чтец и yalthV - певец). Так как чтецы и певцы носят одну иту же богослужебную одежду с дьяконами - стихарь, то их моглипервоначально называть одним и тем же именем; когда же нужно былодиакона отличить от чтецов и певцов, то к слову дьяк прибавляли титул"огарный". В древнее время у нас в России Д., по самой своей должностилюди грамотные, соединяли со своим церковным званием обязанностиписарей; потом дьяками начали называть вообще писарей и приказныхчиновников. С 1868 г., когда церковнослужители перестали составлятьчасть духовного сословия, место Д. заступили псаломщики; права прежнегодуховного состояния сохранены были только за теми Д., которые служилипри церквах до 1868 г.

thread_title:  Needs Serious Cleanup 

message: To provide clarity to the article, the information should be organized into sections rather than all clumped together. I suggest placing the article into a "Background" section for both the music and dance portions of Pachanga. Additionally, for the Pachanga music and dance I suggest creating a description secton in which you decribe the instruments used in the style of music, what the music sounds like, and what settings the music is often listened to in (party settings, ballroom dancing, etc.). Including a section like this would also be helpful for the pachanga dance style.
-Also make a hyperlink for "charanga" so that readers are able to compare and contrast the similar styles of music. What may also be helpful is to provide youtube links in order for the reader to listen to what the Pachanga music style sounds like. Also include a video link for the pachanga dance style so that reader can visualize what you are describing in the article.
-Include hyperlinks for "Peer International (BMI)", and "La Pachanga"  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Justinpoitras (talk • contribs) 20:50, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

thread_title:  Is this actually notable? 

message: Let's assume a squad of 9 men (typical US Army, 2 fire teams). If they're 'strung out' in a column 2 wide, (and 4-5) long, then after the first cycle of 'peel' (if not before), they'll be spaced 1 meter apart (along the long axis) and 10 m first to last. Each cycle will move them 10 meters. I'm only guessing at speed of a cycle, but if the soldiers on average take 10 seconds to move from front to back and begin suppressing fire, then that's 90 seconds per cycle or 10 meters every 90 seconds or 0.4 kph. I have trouble believing that snail-like speed is the actual rate of retreat. I'd like to see a reliable source for this claim (of 1 meter behind the farthest from the front).
Also - I assume that 'column' means the group is moving ... or *was* moving ... in a pattern which had a long axis and that axis was the direction of travel. It isn't obvious to me that that term is well-enough understood to be assumed known by the reader.
Finally, why would they be in the form of a column when engaging the enemy? It's wildly ineffective and since only the front has a clear field of fire, pretty dangerous as well.98.21.215.110 (talk) 21:15, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Speaking as a former infantryman, you don't always get to dictate when you make contact with the enemy. The claim of 1 meter beyond the furthest teammate is simply wrong, as you suspect -- we were trained to move to the next closest point of cover that maintains sight with the former last-man, while still allowing for an adequate field of fire to support the rest of the team as they peel. Also, you only peel far enough back to remove yourself from visual contact with the enemy, after which point you move out as a squad.⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 21:44, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.
As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals.  So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely,      — The Transhumanist    07:37, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

At least for the Bergisches Land this is the protestant tradition 'Martinisingen' or 'Mätensingen' with respect to Martin Luther and not about St. Martins. So that should be corrected if no one opposes.
