Talk:Concord Hymn

message: I can see the whole text of the poem here, but I also looked it up on wikisource but it is not there; however, I think it should be since the author died at least a century ago and this poem was published in the 1836, any thoughts, comments?

thread_title:  what about wikisource? 

message: There's a lot of confusion on Wikpedia about the so-called "Battle of Lexington and Concord," but there were really two different and distinct battles; the Battle of Lexington and the Battle of Concord, as well as a running skirmish after the battle of Concord. The Battle of Lexington was a very brief battle that occurred at dawn on 1775-04-19, at Lexington. The British forces then marched about 12 km west to Concord, where the Battle of Concord occured at the North Bridge, about three hours after the Battle of Lexington. Then a running skirmish ensued through several towns as the British forces retreated to Charletown. Emerson's poem was specifically about the Battle of Concord, not Lexington ("the rude bridge that arched the flood" being the North Bridge over the Concord River). Likewise, the obelisk memorializes those who fell at the Battle of Concord; not Lexington.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.154.254.125 (talk) 21:37, 18 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Battle of CONCORD 

message: Should this statement remain as written: "Emerson wrote "Concord Hymn" in 1836 for the dedication of the Obelisk, a battle monument in Concord, Massachusetts that commemorated the men that gave their lives at the Battle of Concord (April 19, 1775), the first battle of the American Revolution."?
The Battle of Lexington was the first engagement of American and British troops and should rightly be called the first battle of the American Revolution. --JohnJSal (talk) 22:11, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I know this is a super late reply... I would suggest not making the proposed changes if only because of the ongoing battle (pun intended) if Lexington counts as independent and, if so, if it should be considered first. Either way, Emerson wrote it because of the Battle of Concord, not because it was the first/second/fourteenth/last battle of anything. --Midnightdreary (talk) 20:39, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

message: Hello everyone, I am working for the International Trade Centre (ITC). I would like to propose the addition of an external link that could lead directly to the specific country’s trade data held by ITC. I would like you to consider this link under the WP:ELYES #3 prescriptions. Moreover, the reliability and the pertinence of this link can be supported by the following facts 
1) ITC is part of the United Nations
2) No registration is required
3) Trade data (imports/exports) are regularly updated
4) The link gives direct access to the trade database of the specific country
5) The addition of reliable trade data to the Economy section of the country could provide an appropriate contribution to the information therein contained.

Talk:Diriamba

message: At one point recently I had put an external link on this page to my farm in diriamba (abundancefarm.com).  I now have read more carefully and realize that putting a link to a site one owns or manages is not non-neutral and that one shouldn't do that on wikipedia, makes sense.  I do think that anecdotal information is relevant, also I think that some of what I've been doing in Diriamba is relevant and interesting to wikipedia users.  However, I'm not non-neutral so I won't put the link back up or describe more about it on the page.  Other relevant information I could provide could concern a machete attack that took place in Diriamba in 2005.  What I think is interesting about abundance farm is 1) what we originally tried to do - create a sustainable village for foreigners in Diriamba and 2) what we have changed our project into now, which is a self-sufficient farm that hosts guests.  You could say it is a commercial venture, because we do charge people $40 per week for the first 2 weeks (includes room/board) but this doesn't cover expenses, it is more of a charitable service we provide!  we host volunteers without pay after their initial "training period". OK so that's my 2 cents. Peterchristopher 14:27, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Humor 

message: As there seems to be some difference of opinion between myself and Entrophie, I thought it would help to discuss any changes about the theft of the Bernd figure here, rather than enter into an edit war.
Here are the reasons why I've been changing Entrophie's recent edits:
* kidnap/theft - while it's true that the Bernd figure was stolen, it was staged as a kidnap, as shown by the 'hostage' video that was released. All of the articles I've read about the episode describe it as a kidnap, including the references at the bottom of the wiki article. The 'kidnap' angle appears significant, so as long as it's clear that we're talking about a resin figure, I don't believe anyone would be confused by the current wording.
* name of the activists - one of the links at the bottom of the article refers to the name of the activist group, so it may cause confusion if the name is removed from the wiki article.
* found by chance/ found by pupils - the article I read about the discovery of the figure simply said that it was found by chance. I don't know of any source that says it was found by children (if you know of one, please cite it). In fact I've just found an article that says it was found by five 'young people' from the Flugplatz Nohra society who were investigating the derelict buildings for 'Zeitzeichen' (time signals?). I imagine these were either teens or young adults, since I doubt such a society would allow children to take part in this kind of activity for safety reasons. At any rate, 'by chance' appears correct, while there's some debate about who exactly found the figure.
I hope that helps. If you disagree with any of my decisions, please discuss any issues here first rather than plan revision pingpong.

Talk:Forward checking

message: From what I remember to have learn at the university, forward checking is not the same as the look ahead algorithm, though the second can be considered an enhancement of the first.
Shouldn't it be an article on its own instead of a redirect to look ahead?
--Huygens 25 14:37, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The redirect is there just because Look-ahead (backtracking) has something on forward checking (first paragraph of section "Look ahead techniques"). I have changed the redirect to point to that section, but I have no objection to splitting out that part (it should be expanded in that case). Tizio 15:33, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Forward Checking is one technique of eliminating or pruning alternatives to look at in a backtracking tree search. "Full lookahead" ahd "Partial lookahead" are techniques that add to these by making additional checks of potential future variable assignments. MAC or "Maintaining Arc Consistency" is a generally accepted as more powerful on larger problems, but FC is simpler. But one does not need to do any pruning or elimination of future assignments except for the massive improvements in execution efficiency during the treesearch. Treesearch is the base algorithm--these are all techniques on top of treesearch method.  
The main difference of what we called "lookahead" is that lookahead compared or eliminated combinations in which both variables were future nodes in the treesearch, where the "forward" checking was present node variable against future variable's potential results. I'm not sure that everyone has maintained the same terminology as our original research when the FC algorithm was developed. Generally I would consider these all as small (but very important) algorithm changes within the general area of pruning "future" choices during the treesearch, with "future" and "forward" as details. I remember we had difficulty naming the original algorithms, and in fact changed names as new techniques were developed.
That said, many algorithms in use today use "forward checking" as a fundamental algorithm control structure, and add the "future" or arc checks as additional techniques. So various views are all consistent with someone's code version on this topic, not easily broken out into separate pages.

Category talk:Trinidad and Tobago Hindus

message: Pundit Sahadeo Tiwari
Pundit Tiwari was born in the village of Sarwan in Bihar,India on 25th February,1892.He came to Trinidad as an Indentured Immigrant in 1910 and later married Sunbass Tiwari(not related).This marrige produced two sons:Ramakant and Surrindra and, five daughters: Mayanti,Shanti, Savitri,Kanti and Reanti.In January 1932,Tiwari established The Sanatan Dharma Board of Control(Port-of-Spain Gazette:17th January 1932).The principal objective of the organization was to unify Hindus and further the interest of the Hindu religion among the Hindu section of the local community.The Sanatan Dharma Board of Control was based in Tunapuna and was composed of predominantly orthodox,practising Pundits.
Pundit Tiwari was the first Pundit to perform a Hindu marriage ceremony or Vivah Samskara in the day despite vehement opposition from other Pundits who even threatened his life.The Hindu marriage ceremony at the time was performed in tht night and this resulted in the procession from the boy side or Baraat having to stay overnight.The family of the girl side or Dulahin had to look after and entertain the Baraatians,a rather costly exercise.
It was because of such economic circumstances that Pundit Sahadeo Tiwari felt it best to perform the marriage ceremony of Francis Jairam Bhopalsingh and Rajoo Narayansingh in the day.The ceremony took place on April 23rd 1933 at 11:00 am in Tunapuna at the Old Railway Station(Port-of-Spain Gazette-20th April,1933).Pundit Tiwari refused to succumb to the opposition against him for doing the ceremony in the day.He imported a book from India called the Vivah Paddhati,a Hindu manuel on the marriage ceremony and was able to silence his opposition.Debate among the elite (Panchayat) was simple.A wedding performed in the night meant that the Dhruva Taara (North Pole Star) was shown to the bride and because the star was fixed, it was used to demonstrate to the bride that she should remain fixed in her commitment to her marriage.However, if the ceremony was done in the day, then Surya Darshan or the Sun was shown and it was made clear that the Sun held the same significance of the North  Pole Star which was that it is in a fixed position.Thus,the validity of the day wedding was established.
Pundit Sahadeo Tiwari died on the 14th April 1972.During his life he tutored a number of well known Pundits such as the late Ramcharan Byragie,the late Satnarayan Panday and Pundit Param among others.

Talk:António Reis

message: In 2022 concerns have been raised regards the real causes of Antonio Reis' real cause of death. 
This came along with a situation of family litigation, and breaking free from a cycle of familiar abuse, his daughter Ana Reis uncovered countless facts on situations he was subjected to, as well as she, of abusive nature, from the Cordeiro family.
Since then she received numerous threats, attacks and fraudulent schemes from the same party. 
His real cause of death remains unconfirmed, there was no autopsy, forensics recently advised it would be extremely difficult to find proofs after time has passed, however, the 'official' version is absolutely, technically, legally, factually and especially financially incongruent towards to every and any action and happening since then and the direction things took. Having, forensic, legal and financial advisors, as well as criminologists, CPTSD therapists and professionals for abuse victims support, agreed in number, with what Ana Reis witnessed, lives through and reported as concern, and as for what motives are involved, given that Ana Reis was a victim of robbery and several frauds, it's a matter of 'follow the money trail'. The type of abuse both Reis father and daughter were subjected to, is explained very clear in the context of narcissistic personality disorder.
Consideration and high respect is kindly appreciated due to the nature of the situation and in honour and protection of Antonio Reis and his daughter Ana's legacy and life. Sanguedereis (talk) 05:57, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
