Talk:Teaching abroad

message: This article is US-centric, written like an advertisement for teachers, does not cite sources and is not neutral with respect to the topic.  It does not have a lead.  I suspect that the topic could make a good encyclopedic article, but I don't think that I would start from this work. --Bejnar 20:43, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Good topic, bad presentation

message: Teaching abroad encompasses five types of employment:    
* International business jobs overseas, working for a company teaching their employees;
* Professional Teaching (with a certificate) Full-time open-ended professional employment at a school or university;
* Internships, which may be student teaching or combined as fellowships with teaching duties;
* Temporary (1 year or less) or low-Skill employment, most ESL teachers fit here as does, to some extent, the United States Peace Corps;
* Government jobs abroad, some United States Peace Corps jobs fall here, as do many USAID jobs; 
* Foreign government jobs, working for a foreign government other than in a school or university;

thread_title: Broaden the article

message: The article is dominated by US military stuff. I assume this means US teachers teaching US service personnel's children abroad? The DoD stuff does not make that clear. There is a big difference between teaching your own nationality abroad and being abroad teaching foreign children.

Or advice on how to DIY?

North Minneapolis:  If you're a resident of this section of the city (instead of a yuppy transplant attracted to Queen Annes), you would know that North Minneapolis is everything in Minneapolis on the north side, West of the Mississippi.  
So, I ask, what is the factual basis for the grouping?  
Thanks.
(Good template though...I just think it needs some tweaks).  LaughNowMurderLatter (talk) 04:03, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The factual basis is the city's official definition of neighborhoods and communities which were formally set in stone in the 1970s. Map http://www.ci.minneapolis.mn.us/about/maps/neighborhoods.pdf. Other cities like Chicago do not do official designations, Minneapolis does. These definitions draw historically back even before yuppies or riots. The generic grouping of North Minneapolis and South Minneapolis is a sign of people who have only recently lived or grown up in the area. davumaya 17:06, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Derived categories provide a very attractive way to hugely generalise the classical Künneth formula (applies to sheaf cohomology and in a relative setting) while at the same time even simplifying the formulation.

message: The article contains this sentence: 
The problem is that the 9th Table Tennis European Championships was held in Novi Sad in 1974, seven years before the construction was completed. The 1981 World Table Tennis Championships was held in Novi Sad, but the "E" in "SPENS" is mysterious to me. Vanjagenije (talk) 23:08, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Hey @Vanjagenije, the letter "E" was also mysterious to me and "SPENS" clearly isn't the acronym for what was mentioned above. I have found that the event was named "SPENS '81" and still can't see the logic behind putting letter "E" between other letters, but that's the decision of that time and we can't interpret it in the article's content (as was the case). On the other hand (if correct, it will make sense), if you look for some of acronym's definitions, it says: "Although the word acronym is often used to refer to any abbreviation formed from initial letters, some dictionaries and usage commentators define acronym to mean an abbreviation that is pronounced as a word, in contrast to an initialism (or alphabetism)‍".

thread_title: Beware of Bob Rayner's "editing"

message: I have noticed in the archive annex of this article, there is a comment by an editor who claims that he "found the first few paragraphs of this article were taken directly from the book Inequality and Global Supra-surplus Capitalism, without acknowledgement. This editor ventured to insert a citation to the relevant page of the alleged original source. Unfortunately though, this wiki editor vents an accusation before investigating it properly, to verify if it is true, and he ends up creating a new, additional fraud. For in reality, the accusation made is not only false, but also turns things completely on their head: Mr Canterbery, the author of the 2018 book Inequality and Global Supra-surplus Capitalism, stole bits of this wiki article which I wrote myself, originally in 2011, and then included them almost verbatim in his 2018 book, without any acknowledgement to wikipedia. So, if there is a plagiarist, it is Mr Canterbery, and not me. I cannot do time travel, where I first steal an except from a book published in 2018, and then go back in time with my "science fiction time-machine" seven years earlier, to insert that excerpt into the text I was writing in 2011. The truth is, that my text existed 7 years before Mr Canterbery stole it for his own book, which can be proved straightforwardly from the archival record. What makes things even worse, is that it is totally inappropriate and fraudulent, to reference a con-artist from Florida in the article afterwards, as if he was the author! I have actually taken the trouble, to write to the publishers of Canterbery's book, and they have acknowledged receipt of my query - but so far, they appear to be unwilling to admit that their own author was proven guilty of plagiarism.
