Oops - small newcomer goof
It appears that User:Brien Clark has been doing a good deed, and deleting a large number of {{WikiProject:California}} tags from cities in Southern California, and adding {{WikiProject:Southern California}} tags instead.
I've left a polite note on his talk page, explaining about WikiProjects, and explaining that cities can easily be part of two or more projects. I've asked if he would be kind enough to replace all the {{WikiProject:California}} tags that he deleted. (See Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers.) Spamreporter1 22:35, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- This was discussed in Wikipedia:WikiProject Southern California, where BlankVerse suggested the switch:
Also, for anyone doing these ratings, please convert any Southern California cities from the {{WikiProject California}} header to the {{WikiProject Southern California}} header.
- If this is not the general consensus, let's discuss this now before any more tags get added or changed. Also note that I left any prominent, well-edited cities, like Los Angeles, California and Cerritos, California with the dual tags. Brien Clark 00:18, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
Conversion of {{WikiProject California}} to {{WikiProject Southern California} for most SoCal articles
To focus the discussion: Operating in good faith, members of the descendant WikiProject Southern California reached consensus that a large number of California cities should have the {{WikiProject California}} tag removed, and instead, only a {{WikiProject Southern California}} tag would be in place. In fact, operating in good faith, this deletion/substitution process has been well under way.
However, it doesn't appear that this deletion/substitution process was discussed on this parent project page first.
Hence, reactions are now being sought, please, from the members of this {{WikiProject California}} project.
- Do you agree that the {{WikiProject California}} tag should be removed from a large number of California cities which are in Southern California?
- Alternatively, do you agree that both {{WikiProject California}} and {{WikiProject Southern California}} tags should appear on Southern California city articles?
Responses, please! Spamreporter1 02:10, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Many articles have multiple WikiProject templates on their talk pages. talk:Drum Barracks, has three, for example, and I've seen as many as five. Note, however, that the WikiProjects on the Drum Barracks article are all very different WikiProjects: WikiProject Southern California, the National Register of Historic Places WikiProject, and the American Civil War task force of the Military history WikiProject.
- My personal opinion is that when there is a clear hierarchy of WikiProjects, then in almost all cases an article should ONLY be in the most specific WikiProject. Bell, California. for example, should only be in the Southern California WikiProject, and does not need to be in either the California WikiProject or WikiProject United States. In fact, most members of the latter two projects probably care not one whit about Bell, California, so the city would just clutter up their lists unnecessarily.
- Only those cities and topics that are very important, such as Los Angeles, California or Death Valley, or that cross the boundaries between Northern and Southern California should get tagged with both the Calif and SoCal WikiProject templates. BlankVerse 06:18, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Southern California Articles should still bear the WP:CAL tag. WikiProject Pittsburgh and WikiProject Philadelpia leave articles tagged with WikiProject Pennsylvania tags. This is the common, accepted way to do this on Wikipedia. --Chris Griswold (☎☓) 08:22, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- I agree with BlankVerse. Most of these things should not have been tagged with WP:CAL in the first place and it was not done with individual consideration to each article. It was an expediency thing done by a bot going through a bunch of general California-related categories. Changing the tags for the ones that aren't actually relevant to California as a whole is simply a move to divide and conquer the work of overseeing the massive number of articles. The City/State case is not really comparable because Southern California's scope as a region covers more than most states and certainly more than any individual city WikiProject. The more telling comparison is WP:US v. a state WikiProject; it would be silly to suggest that all the things tagged with WP:CAL should be also tagged with WP:US just because they are "in" the scope. Mike Dillon 15:55, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- I agree with BlankVerse et al. The purpose of WikiProjects is to help coordinate and organize article writing. Having every minutia that refers to California tagged with {{WikiProject California}} is not helpful. That is why the project has 10,321 articles, and with only 38 participants, seems like an overwhelming task. It seems if that number could be broken up to smaller, more confined groupings, then more articles could be paid attention to. Brien Clark 20:10, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- I agree with BlankVerse and Brien Clark; I should, since I'm the guy we seem to be talking about (check my edit history). Some of my points: The SOCAL project was created before the CAL project (see here and here), so quote—"parantage"—endquote is a matter of how you want to define that word; I understand reasons for both. I think that the HUGE discrepancy between so many articles and so few members, smaller chunks is useful. Compare to (rough numbers) for the projects Acdixon mentions:
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Louisville: 40 members; 1400 pages
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Bluegrass Region: 10 members; 180 pages
- Wikipedia:WikiProject KYOVA Region: 11 members; 90 pages
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Kentucky: 35 members; 2000 pages
- I generally like the India solution; only one tag needs to be used for many projects. However, there are 16 Indian sub-projects, and only two here; also, ALL of the sub-projects are more-or-less decidedly also related to the parent project. For the California projects, a single high school doesn't have to be linked to WP:CAL :how important is this to the entire state? ANY user REMOTELY familiar with geography will recognise that Southern California implies the rest of California. And I think that any of those articles, particularly ones on small cities, will have a link to California in them. I agree that both tags should be on certain "big" articles, though J.smith's idea to use both tags can become unmanagable in a few iterations: imagine if everything was tagged with everything possible (see WP:NOTAG, as short as it is). Talk pages would quickly be overrun by tags; categories too could quickly send the bottom of the page sprawling on for screens endless as far as your monitor can display (a bit of poetic license there). I just see the separate projects as needing to be just that, seperate. If projects are continually nested, then why have smaller projects? Smaller projects imply that there will be greater focus on improving articles: there are about 8000 unassessed California articles! How can they possibly get the attention they deserve from less than 40 participants?! KPBotany, I'm sorry you felt that what I did was "hostile," "without logic," and not "helpful in the least bit" because I was trying for just the opposite: supportive, thoughtful, and helpful.—ScouterSig 06:17, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

- I think the tags should BOTH remain. Since members of WP:CAL will be inevitably working on WP:SoCal articles, I don't think it proper to remove the parent project tag. There is no reason there can't be two tags. I'm not sure why they need to be removed... AnthonyWS

Response(s) from Other WikiProject pages regarding removing WikiProject California tag
To make for easier reading, I will copy and paste questions and responses from other projects here:
Because I am curious how others might have addressed this situation, I have also posed this interesting question at the WikiProject page, here and WikiProject City page, to see if there is a broader consensus on this issue. Spamreporter1 06:53, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
Responses thus far:
1. Broadly speaking, the consensus (or gentleman's agreement among WikiProjects, really) has been:
- Properly-placed WikiProject tags are never removed; the only time they get taken off is if the article is deleted/merged/redirected/etc., or if it's not in scope of the project in the first place.
- It's perfectly normal for articles to have multiple WikiProject tags.
- The real answer here would have been to set up something like {{WP India}}, with the child project's tag absorbed into the parent's. (Quite honestly, I don't understand what the point of having a Southern California project completely separate from the main California one is to begin with; but that's a broader issue.) Kirill Lokshin 06:59, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Kirill is commenting on the Southern California v. California WikiProject split without knowing the history. WP:SOCAL was created first and WP:CAL was only created later to serve as a parent for WP:SOCAL and cover the rest of the state that nobody else had been covering as a project up to that time. BlankVerse started both projects and, in my opinion, this project is woefully dormant for a state of California's size and prominence. Hopefully that will change, but it's not up to WP:COUNCIL what WikiProjects make sense or not. Mike Dillon 15:59, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
2. Sounds like some kind of odd gaming going on. Any article can be under the auspices of a number of different projects; it's not an exclusivity thing! The yanked tags should be restored, and the offending people should be gently chided. Is there anything on the talk pages of either project? --Orange Mike 15:17, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
3. If the article falls under the scope of both WikiProjects, then it should have both WikiProject banners. They should be restored.↔NMajdan•talk 16:16, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
4. Unless WP SouthernCal is a sub-project of this one (and I speak from ignorance here) then I don't see the issue with having both tags. Many projects have overlapping "territory" and since no project can own an article, thats not realy a problem. ---J.S (T/C/WRE) 16:51, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
5. We had a similar situation at WikiProject Kentucky, which spawned several child projects, including WikiProject Louisville, WikiProject Bluegrass Region, and WikiProject KYOVA Region. In particular, the Louisville (perhaps more appropriately, the Louisville Metro) project began changing WPKentucky tags to WPLouisville tags. At first, I also resented that change, but I came to realize that it does help get the best editors for a particular topic on those articles. We list good and featured articles from the child projects on the WPKentucky page and generally try to work in partnership with the child projects. And, in cases of significant overlap, we leave both banners. For example, Frankfort, Kentucky is located in the Bluegrass Region, but is also the state capital. Acdixon 16:56, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
6. Just leave the WikiProject California tags alone, and restore the ones you've removed. Until you secede you're part of the state, and you'll never secede because you'll go thirsty--which is what this is beginning to seem like. There is nothing whatsoever that prevents members of WP SouthernCal from attaching tags to their cities without removing those cities from WikiProject California. Southern California is NOT a bona fide political entity, completely separate from the rest of the state, it is, in fact, politically highly dependent upon resources from the north for its population, to make it at Wikipedia something it is not, is inappropriate. You never should have removed the WP California tags without first discussing it with WP California. KP Botany 17:59, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Your hostility is not helpful. Mike Dillon 19:55, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- This argument is full of non sequiturs. This tagging issue has nothing to do with Southern California's dependence on resources or seceding from the state. The issue is grouping tags relevantly, in a manner that will spur concise article writing. Brien Clark 20:20, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, that's why I said this is what it seems like in my post, because it is a non sequitur, there is no reason or logic to pull California cities out of California and make them only Southern California just because they're in Southern California. Adding WP Southern Cal tags doesn't change the geography or politics of these cities, neither does adding WP California tags. I don't think the original hostility of removing the tags without consulting Wikiproject California was helpful in the least bit. In general, acting without consulting those concerned is hostile. KP Botany 02:38, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
- This all seems like a tempest in a teapot. I'm not sure why it required canvassing for so much response. Changing the project to a more specific one makes sense on the face of it. We don't include articles in both parent and child categories. A well-intentioned editor could easily have assumed that the same would be true for projects. Let's move on. -Will Beback · † · 02:56, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

7. I agree that the WikiProject California tags should never have been removed, and should be restored. That said, the rest of KP Botany's post is rather POV.--Curtis Clark 16:37, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
8. I was going to say the same thing, basically, but Acdixon beat me to it. WPLou and WPKY get along quite well, and oftentimes in the few cases where we have a jurisdictional question, we just keep both project banners on the talk page. It's all good. There's normally no need for dual city/region and state project coverage. Stevie is the man!

9. I agree with BlankVerse. The Southern California wikiproject did the right thing technically, but apparently they should have provided better courtesy to the state-level project.

Summary of Discussions about Tag Removal Issues
I am posting this as a new section for sake of easy reading. The following is intended as my summary of the views expressed thus far:
- There are a group of editors who have the good faith, well-intended belief that where there is a larger regional WikiProject and a more local WikiProject, it is appropriate and practical that the tag of the local WikiProject be the only tag that appears on articles of local interest. Further, they have the good faith, well-intended belief that if the tag of the larger, regional WikiProject is already on a local article, the regional tag may be removed, and the local tag put in its place.
- This group of editors also have the good faith, well-intended belief that articles about cities in Southern California are of sufficiently local interest only, such that the tag of WikiProject California may be removed, and the tag of WikiProject Southern California only be put in its place.
- There are other editors who have different views. These other editors subscribe to the good faith, well-intended belief that, at least for cities, it is appropriate for both the regional and the local tag to appear.
- Indeed some editors report feelings of resentment and anger (even if inartfully expressed) that the regional tags were removed from the city articles, and the local tags only were put in place .
- There is a separate, but related, set of questions related to procedural issues about when and how WikiProject tags may be removed at all.
- In particular, one set of editors undertook a large scale removal of tags of another WikiProject without prior discussion on the pages of the targeted WikiProject.
- There were mitigating circumstances because of history and overlapping editors between the two projects.
- After a call for discussion, a large number of editors affiliated with the local project weighed in (including a significant number of senior-level editors) explaining their points of view.
- One person from the regional project and one person from the local project weighed in to object to the removal of the larger regional project's tags.
- A significant number of outside observers weighed in to express their concerns about the removal of the regional WikiProject's tags, and to express their concerns about some of the procedural issues.
If I may offer the following observations to help move this forward.
- It is easy to agree that purely local articles may safely have only the local project's tag. For example, Los Angeles's Griffith Park or San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter can probably have only the local project's tag. (Although curiously, Talk:Griffith Park has only the California tag, and Talk:Gaslamp Quarter has both tags.)
- In my view, the more difficult question is where to draw the line on the spectrum between "local" and "regional" articles. There is perhaps the perception among at least some of the editors who weighed in that cities properly belong to both projects, and that the line was drawn "too high" on the regional/local spectrum.
On a going-forward basis, is the following a workable solution?
♦ That California tags not be removed from city articles, but that they may be removed from articles of more local interest.
♦ That, in any event, no more California tags be removed at all, without express discussion and consensus on that project's talk pages.
Obviously, as a proposed solution, it is subject to tweaking and improvement!
I am posting this here and on the Southern California talk page. May I request that any responses please be placed on the Southern California talk page, so as to condense the discussion. Having said that, responses please! Spamreporter1 19:42, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
Project standards
Somebody just moved my followup to the above to the other project page and added a hidden warning in upper case. However, I put it here on purpose, because I'm not really interested in the tagging controversy and I was addressing the members of this project, so I'm pasting it back in.--Hjal 06:52, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- Well, it's been about 90 years since LA passed SF in population, and it's likely that us Northern Californians will get used to Southern California dominating the State in no more than another 90 years. Good luck.
- OT, I don't see any problem with treating WP:SoCal the same as we treat sub-categories--put everything below the Tehachapis in SoCal and drop them from Cal. If people are interested in articles in both categories, they can edit anyway, or they can join both projects. Same with WP:SF, etc. However, I think that it would be good to set statewide standards here, so everything ends up looking like it was coordinated.--Hjal 02:03, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Tag replacement discussion continued
The reason that I brought this issue (of tag replacement) to the attention of this Project and other Projects is that I think that what is happening here is really a microcosm, perhaps a test case, of what are good relationships between regional and local WikiProjects. I'm not sure that a consensus has yet developed in the discussions on this page.
You may be interested to know that there are some innovative approaches being currently discussed on a more general basis on this WikiProject page about this issue. The members of this Project may find this other discussion useful in assisting their thinking here. (As before, I am requesting that any comments be posted on Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Southern_California in order to condense the conversation.) Spamreporter1 07:40, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
WikiProject Australia and India suggested as model
There has been a suggestion that rather than use the "parent/descendant" model to structure the WikiProject California/Southern California relationship, instead use a "project/sub-project" model - as is currently being used at WikiProject Australia and WikiProject India. The main difference is that while each sub-project has its own project page, talk page, tasks, COTWs, etc., it does not have a separate tag. If you are interested in seeing if this project/sub-project model might work for California, you are invited to those project pages for your review. Spamreporter1 18:48, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Responses from WikiProject Australia and WikiProject India
At the suggestion of a more senior editor, I made inquiry of WikiProject Australia and WikiProject India about their structure. It appears they avoid this "dual-tagging/single-tagging" issue altogether by using a "project/sub-project structure" rather than a "parent/descendant" structure.
I have received the following responses to my inquiries to WikiProject Australia and WikiProject India about their "sub-project" structure:
Your question to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Australia
- In reality, subprojects of WikiProject Australia are their own autonomous group with their own sense of community. Sub-projects of WP:AUS generally maintain themselves, however fall under the parent WikiProject Australia for WP:1.0 assessment purposes. Some Australian sub-projects fall outside of the parent project and have decided to assess their own aticles (an example is Wikipedia:WikiProject Football (soccer) in Australia, leading to the situation where a talk page becomes cluttered with many unneccessary templates. We're about to combine assessments for sub-projects into the master {{WP Australia}} template so that sub-projects need not create their own assessment scheme. The benefit of this is that sub-projects can assess their own articles, and their assessments contribute to provide an overall look at the state of Australia-related articles without fragmenting the results. You may want to look at WP:INDIA which has already adapted what we require. -- Longhair\talk 19:45, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Your question to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject India
- Our response will be similar to the Australian one above. I had initially copied their template and improved upon it.
- 1) Sub-projects work autonomously and have their own community. They have seperate project pages and discussion pages. See WP:KERALA.
- 2) COTW still works at the parent level since participation is low.
- 3) All sub-projects use the same project banner. For example, {{WP India|kerala=yes}} for an article that falls under the scope of India and Kerala.
- 4) The project banner creates assessment categories at individual project level as well as at the parent. Class tag is shared across projects. Since Importance could differ between sub-projects, we have separate importance tags for each project. For example, {{WP India|kerala=yes|class=FA|importance=High|kerala-importance=Top}} will put the article under Top importance for Kerala project and High for the India project.
- 5) Sub-projects are identified as workgroups on the talk page banner. For a few of our projects (Indian cinema), banner displays the sub-project in a separate box. For example, {{WP India|cinema=yes}} will generate two boxes, one for India and one for Cinema. This way, the sub-project gets more ad-space. See Talk:Aishwarya Rai. This is needed for topical projects that loosely integrate into the national project. Indian cinema has both India and Films as parents.
- 6) The parent project's menu bar is displayed on all sub-project pages. This will give visibility and help invite more participants into various sub-projects. In topical projects such as Indian cinema, the menu bar is trimmed down to a small box. The menu bar displays assessment statistics table of the project currently displayed. See WP:KERALA and WP:INCINE.
- 7) The automation department at the parent level supports all sub-projects. They help with automated talk page tagging.
- This type of integration avoids redundancy and helps sub-projects concentrate on the article improvement than worry about templates and technical stuff.
Summary of Inter-WikiProject Discussion thus far
The question: Where there is a parent/descendent relationship between two WikiProjects (WPs), when should the descendant WP tag be the only tag that appears, and when should articles have both the parent and descendent tags?
The following is my (hopefully very brief) summary of the discussion thus far on the issue of when and whether WP tags should be removed, or whether articles should have two WP tags ("dual-tagged"). To use a (hypothetical) example, when should the [[WP:OHIO]] tag be "dual-tagged" on all Ohio city articles, and when should the [[WP:WEST OHIO]] tag be the only tag that appears on Ohio city articles?
Option 1 - "Very limited dual-tagging." Just a few, the "most important," local articles are dual-tagged; all other local articles have only the descendent WP tag.
- Pro - promotes clarity, focus for the descendent WP; analogize to category structure: only the most local cat appears in the cat hierarchy; reduces conflict in assessment scales
- Con - parent WP is harmed by not being able to recruit or offer standards; analogy to category structure not valid, because senior cat is not harmed; no harm to local WP by dual-tagging
Option 2 - "Full dual-tagging." All articles within a relevant area have both parent and descendent tags.
- Pro - promotes cooperation between WPs, allows both WPs to recruit, does not harm descendent, avoids "tag revert wars" (no WP tags should be removed without consent of that WP)
- Con - creates tag-clutter and confusion; encourages inter-WP conflict; reduces ability of local WP to recruit
Option 3 - "Some dual-tagging." Middle-ground between Option 1 and Option 2 - a significant number (but not all) are dual-tagged.
- Pro - "best of both worlds"? Allows parent access to a significant number of articles, while giving descendent focus and clarity; "where to draw the line" is subject to express agreement between the WPs
- Con - needlessly complex; will lead to endless debates about "where to draw the line"
Option 4 - "Project/Sub-project" structure. Avoids tagging controversy altogether by having local project be a "sub-project" (that is, it has its own page, COTW, etc., but not a separate tag) - see WP:AUSTRALIA and WP:INDIA as examples.
- Pro - this is the best of both worlds; both projects are able to have their own identity, community and tasks, without having to argue about tags; WPs are able to interact without worrying about "turf wars"
- Con - this makes it too difficult for the local WP to maintain its identity, and the local will wither into the parent
I have likely neglected some arguments (probably your favorite argument) pro and con - but the intent here is to summarize briefly the points of view that have been expressed thus far. Responses are being collected at WT:SOCAL and/or Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject. Spamreporter1 15:51, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
:I had to look at this for a while, and I think that tagging only primarily southern California things with the SoCal project, in place of the California project, is a good idea. There are a number of issues, as people have stated. First of all, it should have been discussed first--this stops the knee-jerk reaction: don't do that. Second, one of the examples given Imperial Valley Irrigation District, or whatever, is one of the few water projects in California that don't pillage the whole state, although this gets into complex issues down the line. Third, there are just too many tags on too many talk pages. I hope others will reconsider on this, and let the SoCal project go ahead, carefully replacing California WP tags with SoCal ones where there is no controversy. KP Botany 05:52, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- Skip it, the SoCal people are working too hard to make sure that random members of the California Project don't have a voice, first by just changing the tags without discussing it first, and now by making sure the discussion can't be followed by folks monitoring project California. KP Botany 19:06, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- I think you're jumping to conclusions. Not all members of WP:SOCAL are members of WP:CAL (I'm not, for instance). I do think you're right that WP:CAL had a knee-jerk reaction because they were not aware of WP:SOCAL's discussion and execution of retagging. I admit WP:SOCAL should have done a better job with communication on this issue. However, I think here WP:SOCAL members are just trying to keep a thread going in one place, and not trying to be dicks. Brien Clark 19:26, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- But SoCal has already discussed and decided to do it and members of WP:CA objected. So, you've made a decision already, and now you're seeking input from whom? From members of SOCAL on what you've already decided? No, from members of WP:CA on the discussion you made. I didn't realize this when it was first decided to keep the conversation on SOCAL, until I missed the conversations because I don't describe. You made a decision on one project board that impacted members of two projects, without discussing it with the other project. It's now time to discuss it with the other project--the discussion belongs on the WP:CA board. If you admit the kneejerk reaction was caused by the failure of WP:SOCAL to make WP:CAL aware of what was going on, why continue to act in this manner? KP Botany 19:37, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- This was probably an oversight, or a different thought process. The discussion is on SoCal retagging Cal tags, so the editor may have thought it more relevant on the SoCal page. However, you do make a point, the discussion should continue here since we're trying to reconcile with WP:CAL. Brien Clark 20:01, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- Those 4 options are kind-of self-evident, and the only options aside from the complete revamping of both wikiprojects to be like India's or Australia's (which no one seems to be seriously suggesting). All the recent discussion has been in favor of minimal-to-medium dual-tagging. I contacted many members of both projects, and even those I did not contact could/should still be participating in the discussion if they so wanted.
- That being said, I think that while no real consensus has been reached (with only a handful of users still participating), I will continue with retagging "Obvious" (as ephemeral as that word is) pages as only Southern California, being exceptionally cautious for incorporated cities, counties, and various regional or trans-regional pages.—ScouterSig 17:13, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- P.S. I will repost this on the WP:SOCAL page; let's try (again) to have all the discussion on that page.
- How about let's try to have all the discussion on the obvious page, the one that includes members of both projects, the parent project page, rather than the one that doesn't include members of both projects? Be exceptionally cautious for water projects and irrigation districts, also. KP Botany 18:06, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
To try to follow all discussions on this issue, you have to look at the talk pages for at least four different WikiProjects (California, SoCal, CITIES, and COUNCIL), as well as the talk page for Wikipedia:WikiProject, because the sockpuppet [1] Spamreporter1 has been copying different comments to the different pages without telling the different WikiProjects or the authors of those comments, and without identifying where the different comments came from. BlankVerse 14:21, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
- The views of each of those Projects was solicited because each is affected by the topic. I have requested that any responses be condensed, and have assisted that process. People are going to respond where they want, and I'm trying to avoid disputes over where the conversation is going to take place, by performing the clerical act of copying responses. If anyone has a suggestion of a single place that all interested parties are comfortable watching and responding there, that would be a good solution. Spamreporter1 22:17, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
All done by a bot
I have to wonder if some of the extreme hostility and incivility that has been part of this discussion on this project's talk page, and some other project's talk pages is the result of some editors assuming that the SoCal WikiProject has been 'undoing' some editor's hard work. In reality, the tagging of almost all the article talk pages (on over 10,000 articles!) with the {{WikiProject California}} banner was done by a Bot, User:MetsBot. At the time, the bot's owner received quite a few complaints, and because of that quit doing any bot-tagging for WikiProjects. It really wasn't the bot's fault, but the fact that that some articles had been miscategorized (such as a couple of Oregon cities that probably some waggish vandal had categorized as California cities). BlankVerse 14:21, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
Another option suggested
In an effort to keep the conversation condensed, the following suggestion was copied from here:
- There is another option currently employed by WP:GER & its subprojects. Integrated tagging. The subproject is on a switch of the main banner. Agathoclea 08:26, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Even simpler solution
What WikiProject Tropical cyclones and WikiProject Meteorology do is that there is no dual tagging, but all articles tagged by {{hurricane}} are fed automatically into Category:Meteorology articles by quality, as well as Category:Tropical cyclone articles by quality. If there is a need for both projects to have different assessments, that can be done by having SoCal or any other narrower project include a wpcal-class parameter in their templates, or something similar. The other template would trigger the same assessment logic in the California WikiProject banner, without the added clutter. Then, SoCal can make a quick note, like "This template was assessed as A-Class by Wikipedia:WikiProject California" like MilHist does for their task forces. Both projects would remain independent. Titoxd(?!?) 06:53, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
Important Inter-WikiProject discussion going on at WikiProject Council
As noted above, the above WP Cal/WP SoCal conversation is really a microcosm of a larger discussion about the best roles for WikiProjects in Wikipedia. There started out only a modest number of WPs, and there are now a large number of WPs, and more being created every day.
It makes sense to me to pause and think about a sensible Wikipedia-wide assessment of what is the best relationship between larger-scale and more local-scale WPs. The WP Cal/WP SoCal conversation is only one example of a number of such conversations going on around Wikipedia.
There is an interesting discussion taking place now at WikiProject Council (a central discussion point for conversations like this). A draft policy has been proposed there and is being discussed about what are "best practices" regarding the relationships between larger-scale and more local-scale projects.
If you are interested, you are welcome to offer your thoughts and observations. Spamreporter1 15:50, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

FAIRBANKS - A biologist at the University of Alaska Fairbanks is predicting trees around the interior town will bud early this year.
Biologist Eugenie Euskirchen said May 1, 1995 was the earliest leaf out in her records.
She said that if temperatures has dropped Friday, this spring have broken that record.
But she said just one warm day is all that's needed to turn the area green.
Euskirchen checks the trees near her house, but she turns to Ted Fathauer with the National Weather Service to determine the exact budding day.

November 8, 2010 TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - The University of Alabama collegiate license tag program raised some $3.5 million during the 2010 fiscal year.
Funds raised through the statewide program are used for scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students.
UA's National Alumni Association raised a total of $3,452,635 through the car tag programs in the 2010 fiscal year, the most of any university in the state.
Auburn University came in second with $2,358,271. Statewide, collegiate tags raised some $7.4 million for 26 colleges and universities.
At UA, more than 1,522 undergraduate students received scholarships through the license program this year, and 30 graduate students received fellowships.
"We are pleased that this program continues to grow each year, and we thank our alumni, friends and fans for the tremendous support. The collegiate license tag program is a great way to show your allegiance to the University and to contribute to scholarships for future generations of students at the Capstone," said Pat Whetstone, director of alumni affairs at UA.
The license tag received a new look with the issue of a new design in March 2009.
Tags are available at local county license offices.
Both numbered and personalized tags are available; the cost is $50 above the normal tag cost.
Collegiate tags may be purchased at any time, regardless of an individual's tag renewal month.

Neuroblastoma Treatment (PDQ®): Treatment - Patient Information [NCI] - General Information About Neuroblastoma
Less common signs and symptoms of neuroblastoma include the following:
- Fever.
- Shortness of breath.
- Feeling tired.
- Easy bruising or bleeding.
- Petechiae (flat, pinpoint spots under the skin caused by bleeding).
- High blood pressure.
- Severe watery diarrhea.
- Jerky muscle movements.
- Uncontrolled eye movement.
Tests that examine many different body tissues and fluids are used to detect (find) and diagnose neuroblastoma.
The following tests and procedures may be used:
- Physical exam and history: An exam of the body to check general signs of health, including checking for signs of disease, such as lumps or anything else that seems unusual. A history of the patient's health habits and past illnesses and treatments will also be taken.
- Neurological exam: A series of questions and tests to check the brain, spinal cord, and nerve function. The exam checks a person's mental status, coordination, and ability to walk normally, and how well the muscles, senses, and reflexes work. This may also be called a neuro exam or a neurologic exam.
- Urinecatecholamine studies: A procedure in which a urine sample is checked to measure the amount of certain substances, vanillylmandelic acid (VMA) and homovanillic acid (HVA), that are made when catecholamines break down and are released into the urine. A higher than normal amount of VMA or HVA can be a sign of neuroblastoma.
- Blood chemistry studies: A procedure in which a blood sample is checked to measure the amounts of certain substances released into the blood by organs and tissues in the body. An unusual (higher or lower than normal) amount of a substance can be a sign of disease in the organ or tissue that makes it. A higher than normal amount of the hormones dopamine and norepinephrine may be a sign of neuroblastoma.
- mIBG (metaiodobenzylguanidine) scan: A procedure used to find neuroendocrine tumors, such as neuroblastoma and pheochromocytoma. A very small amount of a substance called radioactive mIBG is injected into a vein and travels through the bloodstream. Neuroendocrine tumor cells take up the radioactive mIBG and are detected by a scanner. Scans may be taken over 1-3 days. An iodine solution may be given before or during the test to keep the thyroid gland from absorbing too much of the mIBG. This test is also used to find out how well the tumor is responding to treatment. mIBG is used in high doses to treat neuroblastoma.
- Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy: The removal of bone marrow, blood, and a small piece of bone by inserting a hollow needle into the hipbone or breastbone. A pathologist views the bone marrow, blood, and bone under a microscope to look for signs of cancer.
- X-ray: An x-ray is a type of energy beam that can go through the body and onto film, making a picture of areas inside the body.
- CT scan (CAT scan): A procedure that makes a series of detailed pictures of areas inside the body, taken from different angles. The pictures are made by a computer linked to an x-ray machine. A dye may be injected into a vein or swallowed to help the organs or tissues show up more clearly. This procedure is also called computed tomography, computerized tomography, or computerized axial tomography.
- MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) with gadolinium: A procedure that uses a magnet, radio waves, and a computer to make a series of detailed pictures of areas inside the body. A substance called gadolinium is injected into a vein. The gadolinium collects around the cancer cells so they show up brighter in the picture. This procedure is also called nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI).
- Ultrasound exam: A procedure in which high-energy sound waves (ultrasound) are bounced off internal tissues or organs and make echoes. The echoes form a picture of body tissues called a sonogram. The picture can be printed to be looked at later.

Don't forget about your reverse lights! Reverse lights are extremely important for every car, and not just because they are legally required! The last thing you want to do with your brand new, shiny car is back right into a dumpster right in the middle of the night! Not only does that severely damage your rear bumper, but it damages your ego as well. Fortunately, a set of PH16W BMW LED reverse lights solves the problem in a jiffy.

BMW E92 335is LCI with CREE LED Backup Reverse Lights
On many European vehicles, the reverse or back up light housing is quite small and does not produce much light to begin with so it makes it very difficult for you to see or others to notice you while you back up your vehicle. Due to the smaller housing size, larger and brighter bulbs are not able to fit so we are left with minimal options to get a super bright light. This is where using high power CREE LED diodes come in handy; these lights provide a large amount of light output for their small size.
Each bulb for this E92 LCI LED backup lights utilizes five CREE R4 XP-E diodes to produce approximately 500 lumen. The top portion uses an optical lens projector to throw out light behind the vehicle as well to increase the effectiveness. Each bulb has a maximum operating output of 25W and is 100% error free so there are no annoying error messages or flickering issues. Thanks to these features, the lights are about five times brighter than stock and about two times brighter than the competitors LED bulb.
Installation is also quite easy as it is plug and play. No modifications are required for installation. The factory bulb uses a very unique mounting bracket to hold the bulb in place and our LED bulb replaces the whole entire assembly instead. Thanks to the careful design of the lights, they have no issues with fitment and can be easily removed if desired at any time. This unique type of bulb design is only used on the 2011 and up BMW E92/93 3-Series Coupe/Convertible for the reverse lights; make sure you check out our installation guide to see the proper way to install these E92 LCI LED Reverse Lights.

Mercedes-Benz E350 Coupe with 25W CREE LED 921 Reverse Lights
On the tail lights of many European vehicles, the reverse light bulb is very small and is a tiny slit of clear lens surrounded by a sea of red. Many European vehicles follow this style of light and it's only natural that the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E350 Coupe would also have this style. Aesthetically, this is very ideal as it is subtle and maintains the overall red appearance of the tail lights, but since the housing is so small, the light output is dim. This is why a high powered LED bulb would be ideal for these types of housings.
These Mercedes E350 LED reverse lights are rated at 25w and produce approximately 500 lumen for superior visibility. Each T15 (921) bulb uses five CREE XP-E R4 LED diodes; four on the side and one on top with a 3x optical lens for projection purposes. Thanks to its design, it is able to provide a 360 degree shine coverage of light while producing light projection making this ideal for this small housing. Larger housings may benefit from a flood type light, but these small reverse light housings do not need that. However, having all that power in a small housing that focuses the light creates an intense shine.
In addition to its bright light output, these LED bulbs are error free for most of the Mercedes-Benz vehicles available. These error free 921 LED for Mercedes are easy to install and requires no wiring to work; simply swap your factory bulb with these and you're done. These 25W CREE LED bulbs are completely error free on the newer E-Class, M-Class, CLS-Class models and alike for the reverse back up lights.

Lexus IS High Power 921 LED Backup Reverse Lights Upgraded
We have a new LED bulb in our "High Power" LED series; it is our 8-SMD 2835 High Power T10 LED backup reverse bulbs on a Lexus IS. These lights are meant for use as back up/reverse lights only. We do not recommend using these for any other application except the reverse lights. Their superior design and output makes these a great choice for reverse lights when backing up to see what is behind you better. These LED bulbs are sold in pairs and will fit the T10/T15 bulb size which includes 921, 912, 906 and more.
Each set comes with two LED bulbs that are equipped with 8-SMD 2835 High Power LED diodes that are made by Samsung. Each 2835-type Samsung LED diode produces 0.5w each and there are 8 per bulb producing 4w per bulb. Each LED bulb produces approximately 400 lumen when operating at 12v. These LED backup lights are only available in 6000K Xenon White to provide the most light. These bulbs are also non-polar so they can be installed in either direction and it will still light up. These bright 921 LED bulbs are the perfect choice for the reverse lights.

921 LED Backup Reverse Lights for a 2012 Dodge Charger
Have there been times where you were backing out of a parking spot and wished that there was more light for you to see? If your incandescent factory bulbs are not cutting it and need more light, our LED replacement bulbs are the solution for you. These 921 LED reverse lights are a direct replacement to the factory bulb inside your reverse light housing.
The 921 LED reverse lights inside this 2012 Dodge Charger are our 2.5W High Power T15 Projector LED Replacement bulbs. Approximately 500 lumens are created by the high power FLUX LED Emitter which is focused using the optical projector lens to provide you superior visibility during the night. These bulbs are a direct replacement to the factory bulbs and can be easily installed by any novice who knows how to access the tail light bulbs.
These LED reverse bulbs will provide a very focused and sharp light so it is ideal for small reverse light housings found in these cars. Using these backup bulbs in larger housings may not allow the same dramatic effect to take place. For larger housings, we recommend a 360 degree shine bulb instead such like these LED reverse light bulbs.

I am looking at needing to expose my Remote Desktop Server (Terminal Services) to be accessed from outside our network. Right now, it can only be accessed from inside our network.
I know it's easy enough to open up the firewall and forward the port.
However, how do I secure the machine itself and what are the best practices around this? My concern is hackers being able to work at breaking into it.
Any best practice guidelines/recommendations would be much appreciated.
Question about a product I found:
Filter Incoming RDP Connections by IP, MAC Address, Computer Name and More
Can anyone comment on the security of this? Looks like I could also use it to limit access by machine name/mac? Anyone else used it?

"concludes that Latter-day Saints share the feelings of their prophet
leader" - Well of course. Otherwise they're not a faithful Mormon.
"Called to Serve: The Prosocial Behavior of Active Latter-day Saints" - When it's a calling ... it's not prosocial. It's reactive not proactive.
Did they study if LDS members are social with a lot of non-members or mainly amongst other LDS members? I think that would make a big difference from my experience in different wards.

I think the answer to your second point is in the article where it says:
"That generosity extends beyond serving in church-related assignments and paying the tithing and other contributions that active Mormons are expected to pay. The study found that while church members give of their time and money to the church, they also give generously to a wide variety of other community causes and organizations."
Reference your third point. I cannot speak for members in your area. But in my area we and our LDS friends have been heavily involved as volunteers in extracurricular school activities and a wide variety of community groups. Given that we are a small minority of the population this means that the bulk of that interaction is with non-LDS folks.
Just recently, when the huge tornadoes blew through Southern Indiana, we had ward and stake members asking when they would get the chance to go and help. I think that speaks well of them.

I can't speak for others, but most of my life, and always an active and
engaged member the majority of my time, friends and service are outside of the
People who have an attitude of service do it as part of our lives, not just a Sunday calling. My family looks for ways to serve others all the time, and I'm sure most of those situations and people have no idea what church I am from. I do it for me and those I serve, not for the Church. If the Church happens to benefit from it in some way good for them.
This is true of my friends, most people I socialize with in fact the vast majority are not members of the LDS church. In fact I can think of only one or two in the many wards I've lived in who I count as friends. However, I can count most as my brothers and sisters whom I would do anything for, and them for me and mine. In my circles we all serve, members or not.

Every time a disaster strikes somewhere, the Bishop does not issue a call to individuals to go and offer relief. In my experiences, we were told each time of a certain disaster and all interested showed up to receive more information. Always totally voluntary, we got organized and whoever could leave the next day or the next week did just that.

Hugues Hoppe
Metric-aware processing of spherical imagery
, Hugues
ACM Trans. Graphics
(SIGGRAPH Asia), 29(6), 2010.
Adaptively discretized equirectangular map for accurate spherical processing.
code and data
Processing spherical images is challenging. Because no spherical parameterization is globally uniform, an accurate solver must account for the spatially varying metric. We present the first efficient metric-aware solver for Laplacian processing of spherical data. Our approach builds on the commonly used equirectangular parameterization, which provides differentiability, axial symmetry, and grid sampling. Crucially, axial symmetry lets us discretize the Laplacian operator just once per grid row. One difficulty is that anisotropy near the poles leads to a poorly conditioned system. Our solution is to construct an adapted hierarchy of finite elements, adjusted at the poles to maintain derivative continuity, and selectively coarsened to bound element anisotropy. The resulting elements are nested both within and across resolution levels. A streaming multigrid solver over this hierarchy achieves excellent convergence rate and scales to huge images. We demonstrate applications in reaction-diffusion texture synthesis and panorama stitching and sharpening.
No hindsights yet.

I'm running the following query:
$result = $wpdb->update($table_name , array( values here), array( 'id' => $eventID) );
The query is executed and the data is updated.
But echoing $result, shows the value 0 (zero).
I've also doubled checked the query found in mysql_queries.log file and ran this in Toad for MySQL. The query executed just fine.
So why does $wpdb->update return 0 (zero)?
Shouldn't this be 1 if successfully executed?

Word that the KeyBank branch in downtown Sturgis will close down spread after an announcement of the closure was posted on the branch's door Thursday.
Corporate officials from KeyBank confirmed the branch's closure through email on Friday.
"Yes, KeyBank will close its Sturgis downtown branch at 205 East Chicago Road on June 20, 2014, and consolidate it with its Sturgis Plaza location located at 713 South Centerville Road," said Kimberly Kowalski, communications manager of the great lakes region for KeyBank.
Their decision to consolidate the branch was based on customer traffic patterns the bank was seeing.
"Over the years, the downtown branch has seen many of its customers shift their business to other nearby KeyBank branches, like Sturgis Plaza," Kowalski said.
As for the employees that currently work at the downtown branch, they will be invited to apply for positions at other KeyBank branches.

US Multi-Role Fighter Jets (Hardcover)
Steve Davies, military aviation photographer and critically acclaimed author of Red Eagles, is back with a new photo-essay on American's cutting-edge fighter fleet. Davies examines the F/A-18C/D/E/F Super Hornet, F-15E Strike Eagle, F-16CG/F-16CJ, F-22A Raptor, and the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, taking readers on a complete behinds-the-scenes tour of these fearsome jets, from the hangers to the skies. In between, Davies explores the cutting edge technology that makes these birds fly and interviews the pilots and ground crews that make them sing. Join Davies for this all-access tour of the mighty jets that help keep America the world's only air superpower.
About the Author
Steve Davies is a freelance aviation journalist?and photographer living in Cambridge, England. He is the author of F-15E Units in Combat 1991-2005 (Osprey), F-15C Units in Combat (Osprey), F-15C/E Units in OIF (Osprey), F-15E Strike Eagle: All Weather Attack Aircraft (Airlife), and F-15 Eagle & Strike Eagle: Combat Legends (Airlife). He is also a regular contributor to the aviation press including International Air Power Review, Combat Aircraft, Air Forces Monthly, Aircraft Illustrated and Air Pictorial.
Praise For…
"Each jet is discussed following a structure that discusses the development and design, testing, weapon systems and armaments, tactics and techniques, deployments and bases of operation. Add to this, first hand pilot and operations accounts from engagements in Iraqi, Bosnia, Afghanistan and other theatres of operation and you get some very exciting real-world stories of the capabilities of these jets as well as their impact on opposing forces." -Ken McDevitt, IPMS/USA
"... a superb book for those who want to learn more about [fighter jets], but don't want to be overwhelmed with stats. The pilot stories add a lot of spice to the book and the large number of photos add some great eye candy. It is a great addition to the library of a jet fanatic and one I can highly recommend to those wanting to learn more about the subject." -Scott Van Aken, Modeling Madness
"This book is full of well-researched information and personal stories. Author's portrayal of the recent US Air Force fighters is indicative, he studied this subject for a long time and in this book examines some of the most iconic and recognized aircraft of the last 30 years, combining combat stories with photographs of the aircraft." -NeoPopRealism Journal

The new BMTC houses the latest generation of military training facilities, which are being progressively introduced across the island. This includes facilities such as a dedicated 5-storey block for each company, air-conditioned smart lecture rooms, elevators, air-conditioned gymnasiums, and a shooting range simulator. Co-located in the training ground are various training sheds of various sizes customised to fit platoons or entire companies. There are also rifle, grenade and Battle Inoculation Course ranges. In addition, there are sports facilities and supporting amenities such as a medical centre, canteens, auditoriums, an SAF E-Mart outlet, the Infantry Heritage Centre and Total Defence Museum.
All buildings in the Ladang complex are connected by sheltered walkways, and are linked to the ferry terminal for transportation to the main island. It is also easily accessible to pre-existing training facilities in the rest of the island, with the Tekong Highway just north of the training complex.
Located near to the ferry terminal is a statue known as the National Service Landmark, depicting a life-sized infantry soldier with the Singapore Armed Forces Flag, which was unveiled by Dr Tony Tan on the same day of the training centre's official opening.

Spectrum (Billy Cobham album)

|The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide
Spectrum is the debut album by jazz fusion drummer Billy Cobham. The album contains much influence of the music of Miles Davis and Mahavishnu Orchestra, with whom Cobham had previously collaborated extensively.
Ken Scott, producer and engineer of Spectrum, on recording Cobham's drums: "Bill Cobham's drums were treated in exactly the same way as I recorded every other drummer. I just used more mics: Neumann U67s on toms, D20s or RE20s (at Electric Lady) on the bass drums, Neumann KM54 or 56 on snare, and either STC 4038s or Beyer M160 ribbon mics for the overheads. One other thing: in order to dampen the snare, Bill just laid his wallet on the top head."
Leland Sklar, bassist on Spectrum: "Spectrum is such a benchmark for so many people. There was a sort of fire in it. It was new ground and it wasn't very analytical. It was more flying by the seat of your pants. That's where great accidents happen, which seems impossible these days. We never did more than a couple of takes on any of it. It was more or less a two-day record. It went by so fast." [5]
Tommy Bolin, who would go on to join the hard rock band Deep Purple two years later, plays lead guitar.[6]
The song "Stratus" appears in the video game Grand Theft Auto IV of the radio station "Fusion FM", as well as being the main sample in the Massive Attack hit "Safe from Harm".

Fringe 2005
The 5th International Workshop on Automatic Processing of Finge Patterns
Not for sale in
your country
your country
Not Available
moreIn 1989 the time was hot to create a workshop series dedicated to the dicussion of the latest results in the automatic processing of fringe patterns. This idea was promoted by the insight that automatic and high precision phase measurement techniques will play a key role in all future industrial applications of optical metrology. However, such a workshop must take place in a dynamic environment. The- fore the main topics of the previous events were always adapted to the most interesting subjects of the new period. In 1993 new prin- ples of optical shape measurement, setup calibration, phase unwr- ping and nondestructive testing were the focus of discussion, while in 1997 new approaches in multi-sensor metrology, active measu- ment strategies and hybrid processing technologies played a central role. 2001, the first meeting in the 21st century, was dedicated to - tical methods for micromeasurements, hybrid measurement te- nologies and new sensor solutions for industrial inspection. The fifth workshop takes place in Stuttgart, the capital of the state of Baden- Württemberg and the centre of a region with a long and remarkable tradition in engineering. Thus after Berlin 1989, Bremen 1993, 1997 and 2001, Stuttgart is the third Fringe city where international - perts will meet each other to share new ideas and concepts in optical metrology. This volume contains the papers presented during FRINGE 2005. less

Telechelic polynorbornenes with hydrogen bonding moieties by direct end capping of living chains
We present two novel symmetric olefins bearing hydrogen bonding moieties for the direct capping of living ring opening metathesis polymerization-chains using Grubbs catalyst 1st- and 3rd-generation. The symmetric olefins are generated via homo metathesis of the corresponding α-olefins under aid of microwave irradiation and are used to prepare polynorbornene-chains (Mn = 4,000–10,000 g/mol, Mw/Mn = 1.1–1.4) bearing barbiturate and thymine-moieties. A qualitative and quantitative analysis of the generated polymers is done via MALDI-TOF MS proving the introduction of hydrogen-bonding moieties into the polymer chain and revealing the strong dependence of the desorption on the chemical structure of the different polymer species and high efficiencies for the end group introduction (90–99%). The efficiency of this process depends strongly on the reaction time and the equivalents of terminating agent with respect to the living end. The best results for the end group introduction are achieved by reacting the living chains with an excess of the terminating agent (5–20 equiv) for 100 h. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
