Wow, you're hopeless. Lets start with the trifles; you spelled ""necessarily"" wrong. That doesn't give you much credibility. The answer to your first question is no, whites from Liverpool speak Scouse, and they don't speak the same as whites from South London, of course, but I don't see what that has to do with White South African English. However, the answer to your second question is mostly yes. Most blacks from Boston do sound pretty much the same as blacks from New Orleans. Most blacks from both areas speak what's called African American Vernacular English (of you're into political correctness, which you seem to be), which is an ethnolect and a sociolect that is becoming more and more different from the speech of whites in America. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by ""Mother Tongue English speakers"". Do you mean L1 varieties?
I don't think my final statement is a violation of WP:OWN because I never said I own this article, nor did I ever think that. I simply temporarily ""took it over"", if you will, to make it a better description of White South African English. Those just happened to be the words I decided to use. It says at the top of this article that the article was in need of attention by an expert on this subject, and while I am no expert, I certainly seem to be the closest thing to it that this article has ever seen (with the notable exception of JackLumber). I think you knew what I meant by that expression, but it's certainly possible that you didn't.
Finally, I will respond to your earlier comment that ""White South African English"" as a title for this article is ""simply racist"". You really haven't explained to me how that would be a racist title. I'm going to assume that you meant either: 1.) That title would suggest that only whites in South Africa speak English and absolutely no one else does. 2.) That title would suggest that whites are the most important group in South Africa, they're are better than everyone else, and they are thus the only group in South Africa deserving an article on the type of English they speak. Both of these choices seem rather absurd to me. If you thought 1.), then I already proposed a solution for that. We could give each Indian South African English, Black South African English, and White South African English its own article to show that there are indeed other dialects of English spoken in South Africa besides WSAfE. If you thought 2.), then you are racist. Let me explain. For that title to be racist I would have to be white. If I were a racist white person I would want that to be the title of the article to show that whites are better and that the way they speak is better. Since we are both anonymous, however, there is no way you could possibly know my race. You would have to rely on conjecture. In this case, your guess was that I was white. After all, if I were black and I proposed that, I would have to somehow be racist against myself. What I don't understand for sure is why you assumed I was white. That's quite a racist assumption. Anyone in the world can edit Wikipedia; people from all races. Yet you assumed I was white. Unless you had statistics to back that assumption up, which you didn't, then that's ""simply racist"". Even if you did have statistics to back it up, it still could be racist. To me, what you're saying is that only white people edit Wikipedia, and that people of other races aren't intelligent enough. Of course, I don't for sure, but that's my conjecture. " | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 |

Misdirected Debate
The threads on this entry have gotten misdirected in a zealous comparison with MPT, which is interesting but not especially relevant. Perhaps the word ""Portfolio"" has become a flash point, but I see only limited value in that line of discussion. It's a footnote and only loosely related to the issues addressed by PPM. I agree with Nickmalik that a more practical definition would be useful.

First of all, the user shouldn't have came to me on a verbal aggressive way and could of said it the alternate way, which he failed to do so, and I responded back at his comments and gave him a fair warning if he tries to f*** with me again. I'll bet he won't like it and back away from it.
Anyways, regarding about the 2000 New Flyer C40HF buses (5000-5222) they were at divisions 3, 5, 7 and 18. Although, a few of them were at SGV-3 division, when they were brand new and entering into service in the early 2000s, before being sent to divisions SB-5 and WSC-7. If you haven't noticed, a few of their cousins C40LF buses were at the same division they were, since one 5300 series bus was on line 180 in the early 2000s, when it was brand new. So, it wasn't the C40HFs that were at D3, their cousins were, too.
Yeah, SB-5 division did have a few of the New Flyer D40LF buses (3000-3019) at one time, before they were sent to WSC-6 for almost their whole life, before 3 or 4 units were sent to Veolia Transportation (a bus contractor) in 2009 or 2010. I remembered riding one of those D40LF buses on line 115, when SB-5 used to operate that line, shared by SB-18, which currently owns the line.
Btw, thanks for sending me a message in a civilized matter. After all, me and you have had verbal altercations in the beginning over bus stuff and changes. But it's all cool now, right? | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 2 |

The above is not a template, it is a subst of a template. The original version linked to her comment directly. There is no intent to demean or to parody Kelly. I was in the process of debating her actions, and the actions of those who support her. I feel that so long as there is a template of support for her, there should be a template that holds the opposing viewpoint. You may take note that the template never appeared on my user page. Please do lift the block, and my apologies to Kelly if this template is offensive to her. Frankly, I am somewhat amused that this would provide an excuse to block my account. I posted the example here in order to provide some small amount of context for others to understand the situation. My concern is with fairness.

My post below should answer your first point. If there are no standards for criticism to be included, we would just have an endless tirade of insults and name-calling in every article. And Nixon is mentioned in the Washington Post article as a milestone in time (as in ""Beginning with Nixon's administration)In any case, the WP article's criticism section is far better in that it mentions specific events that originate criticism, and not just the opinion stemming from those events. That's my whole problem with the criticism section of this article. " | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

a few suggestions on ""Measuring economic worth over time""
I fully realize that this is a work in progress but thought a few suggestions could be useful. I'll post some specific ones on the talk page but more generally:
Please don't take it the wrong way but I think quite often your writing style reflects academia too much - as if you were writing for an academic journal. However the intended target audience of the Wikipedia is different than that of a bunch of academics so care should be taken to avoid unnecessary nomenclature and jargon, as well as to avoid ""academic phrasing"" in favor of simple formulations. More importantly I think one should be careful with introducing terms and concepts into the text that have not been defined previously and that a lay reader may be unfamiliar with, for example ""social cost"" or ""social production"".
Speaking of ""social production"" it'd be useful to standardize the terminology when it is being used. For example it seems like by ""proportions of social production"" you refer to income shares of various classes (workers, capitalists, landlords etc) - if so, then that should be stated clearly, if not, the difference should be clarified. Likewise comparing the article title and the lead I think you're equivocating between ""economic worth"" and ""social worth"" which could be/are distinct concepts. Also because I'm probably coming at this from a different background I'm wondering what exactly is the relationship between ""social product"" and more standard measures of production like GDP, income, etc.
""Both contemporary and historical wage price series are inherently controversial, as they speak to the standard of living of working class people."" - I'm not sure if contemporary wage and price series are really ""inherently"" controversial in the sense of being outright rejected by many researchers; at least that doesn't seem like the appropriate word here. Likewise, I don't think the reason why they are controversial/deemed important is because they concern ""working class people"". They obviously concern all members of society whatever their class status. In a similar way the idea of ""economic worth"" can refer to entities such as firms, charities, nations or even physical objects such as machinery and equipment.
Proportion of gdp and the questions given as examples aren't really related. For example the question ""what was the opportunity cost of a £50,000 investment in 1840?"" is not obviously or directly related to the question ""what was the social power of capital in 1840?"".
Some ideas for expansion: ""Theoretical problems"" sections should link and perhaps briefly mention things like the LTV and marginalism, maybe something like the aggregation problem (though that article needs some serious work). ""Wage price series"" can be expanded to include discussion of how these kind of data are generally collected (btw, I'm not sure what a ""real price"" is here. An individual good price divided by a price index?). For historical wage price series there's also a good bit of data available for the Netherlands and to a lesser extent France and Germany. There's also sporadic data for a wide number of different societies which don't really constitute a series but do provide ""snapshot"" views of the economy/society in time (all the way back to ancient Sumer). The main difficulty of comparing aggregates across time is the changing nature of a consumption basket and time usage, in particular introduction of new goods and disappearance of old ones (like Malleus alludes to above) - this should also be elaborated upon and made more explicit.
I'd really hate to barge in and edit a new article while it is still being written so I thought bringing up some suggestions here would be better. Thanks. " | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

Review comments
I took a brief look at the article after the recent peer review was closed. Here are a few comments for improvement - these are things that woulkd be a problem if this were up for WP:FAC or even WP:GAN.
The lead is five paragraphs but WP:LEAD says the limit is four paragraphs.
The lead does not summarize the article well - my rule of thumb is to include every section in the lead somehow, but the Munic Crisis, his marriage and children, his children with other women, and his death are not in the lead
WP:MOSQUOTE says that all direct quotations need to have a reference (even if they are in the lead)
To be free, most historic images need to have been published before 1923 or their source must be given so clearly that it can be determined that the image was published without a copyright notice or its copyright has expired. Images like File:CAL CAM2 DH4 Nov 4 1926.jpg were clearly taken after 1923, and lack the information as to sources that allow any sort of determination of copyright status.
Or how is this image not still under copyright - published in 1927 at the earliest File:CharlesLindbergh-RaymondOrteig.jpg?
The relevant policy for WP:FAIRUSE images is WP:NFCC, every point of which has to be met for an image to be used under fair use guidelines. I often ask myself three questions about fair use images: 1) Does the image increase the reader's understanding of the article's subject? 2) Is the image discussed in the article itself? 3) Is the image used merely for decorative purposes? NFCC requires minimal use - all of which leads to me to ask: How do two separate Fair Use covers of ""WE"" increase the reader's understanding / meet minimal use?
MOS says not to sandwich text between images - this does so in several places.
I read Mosely's biography of Lindbergh years ago (it is cited here) and read WE as a kid. This seems to me to under play Lindbergh's isolationism and at least the perception of him as an appeaser / possible Nazi sympathizer.
The language in the lead at least seems needlessly convoluted - look at what the page Lindbergh says ""Charles Lindbergh (1902–1974), first pilot to fly solo non-stop across the Atlantic"" then look at how it described here ""As a 25-year-old U.S. Air Mail pilot Lindbergh emerged suddenly from virtual obscurity to instantaneous world fame as the result of his Orteig Prize-winning solo non-stop flight on May 20–21, 1927, made from Roosevelt Field[N 1] located in Garden City on New York's Long Island to Le Bourget Field in Paris, France, a distance of nearly 3,600 statute miles (5,800 km), in the single-seat, single-engine purpose built Ryan monoplane Spirit of St. Louis."" The facts are all there, but it is so comvoluted that if you don't already know what Lindy did, you might miss it.
What makes ""Charleslindberg.com a reliable source? See WP:RS
In short, before you worry too much about the language, there is a lot of other stuff to fix here.
Hope this helps, ><>°° " | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

Bullying? Would threatening to commit a crime against the author constitute ""bullying""? As I've pointed out numerous times, Zarove threatened to publish Acharyas credit information online if I didn't back off. Procuring someones credit report under false pretenses is a crime. Furthermore, this suggests Zarove has Acharyas SSN. The mentally ill person who kidnapped her child is known to have passed Acharyas personal information, such as her SSN, to fringe religious groups like tektonics.org. He is wanted by the authorities. Zarove, have you been in touch with this psychotic kidnapper? " | 0 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 2 |
"Aeusoes has objected, and not without reason. I myself have some misguivings about these transcriptions, as I expressed above. And the truth is that our knowledge of how Latin was pronounced in classical times comes from secondary sources. We'll never be able to find out exactly how short ""i"" and ""u"" were pronounced. A broader transcription does circumvent the problem, by being less assertive.

I'll try to make it even clearer. ""Outer Mongolia"" can refer to the following:
The northern part of traditional Mongolia during the period of Manchu control (1691-1911)
The Bogdo Khanate (1912-24) including the period of Chinese control (1919-21)
A common designation for the state of Mongolia (1924-Present)
Mongolia as claimed by the Republic of China (1950s-Present)
An English metaphor for a generically remote place
All of these meanings should be covered in the article. You don't have to agree as to whether the usage is ""correct"" or not; it exists and is attestable. — AjaxSmack " | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

While this is undoubtedly true for many of Hovhaness's titles, it is arguably not the case for other instances. For example, I have just disambiguated the word ""Suite"" near the beginning of the list, since I am reasonably certain that the title of the Suite for Violin and Piano is not meant to pun with a sort of hotel room or ""a furniture set of sofas and chairs"".— " | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

I could just give you an email address that I don't use much, then I wont be too worried about it getting spam or whatever from whoever else might see it. Some policies that Le Grand is probably breaking: not assuming good faith, as well as point-of-view pushing. I haven't read the policies on those completely though (but I'm pretty sure POV pushing is something we could find many examples for, if that is indeed a policy that's been broken). Plus he keeps listing another editor's opinion essay, and acts like it should be followed (but it's not an official policy, as the tag at the top of it clearly states). The ""Don't Destroy"" one, that I'm sure you've seen at least once. For any type of thing: deletion debates, talk pages are indeed the best bet to find things. " | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |

Fullmetal Particle Man
Another Youtube video (located here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahNYobJ_gjQ ) that I noticed that ALSO happens to fit extremely well features Fullmetal Alchemist characters in the positions of the four men;
Edward Elric (aka Ed, aka the Fullmetal Alchemist) is cast as Particle Man, this being the most obvious joke/reference; he's extremely touchy about his height, him being almost/most likely the shortest man in the military and NEARLY the shortest main character I think that his brother Alphonse's real body takes that distinguishment away, however). In his sequence of the Youtube video, the lines are accompanied by rather apt sequences from the anime (among them, the line ""When he's underwater does he get wet, | Or does the water get him instead?"" is accompanied by a clip of Ed sinking to the bottom of a body of water because of his prosthetic limbs which happen to be made entirely of metal, hence his title the 'Fullmetal' Alchemist).
Colonel Roy Mustang (aka the Flame Alchemist) is cast as Triangle Man. Promoted at one point to Brigadier General and later became Fuhrer (sp?), he is constantly taking jabs at Edward (for a rather popular example, he more than occasionally jokes about Ed's height), though in one episode in the anime and a sidestory in the manga the two actually hold a battle on the parade grounds (with the Fuhrer's permission) Mustang wins by a comeback landslide in the manga, but in the anime the then-Colonel hesitates (possibly due to post-traumatic stress disorder, as surmised due to a flashback being shown at that moment in the anime of a young man he had to kill in the Ishbal War) and thus loses to Ed; it is from the anime episode that the video actually gets the majority of its Particle Man VS Triangle Man footage.
Major Alex Louis Armstrong () is cast as Universe Man; all State Alchemists (such as, as noted before, Armstrong and Edward) carry watches, and in both manga and anime the man proudly brandishes his watch (supplying one shot used in the video if I recall), plus he is, despite his sheer size (he is easily tied with the husband of Izumi Curtis (sp?) as the tallest supporting character in the series) and power (he performs his particular brand of alchemy through the use of powerful punches one scene in the anime has him pick up a slab of concrete with one hand, toss it in the air, and punch it, thus turning it into a massive bullet propelled at high speed via the punch's force). In the video, his power and compassion are both seen . . . along with his penchant for posing (most likely a trait passed down the Armstrong family line for generations a lot of his many talents, from his alchemy to his skill at portraiture, seem to be this way).
Second Lieutenant Jean Havoc is cast as Person Man, and aptly so; out of all his co-workers, he seems to suffer the most problems, particularly in his love life Mustang has effectively stolen every single girl he's dated in either series, anime or manga, with one exception (manga-only) being the homunculus Lust (going under the alias Solaris; admittedly, it was a poor choice, as she later was proved to have been using him and ended up wounding him in his leg to the point that he could not be of any use in the military, hence his subsequent resignation, plus the Flame Alchemist did in fact kill Lust during the same incident where she crippled Havoc). Hence, the line ""Triangle Man hates Person Man"" is given even more meaning with this Youtube video. (Ironically, when the line ""Lives his life in a garbage can"" comes up, it shows Roy Mustang's old residence back when he was obsessed with, if I remember correctly, human transmutation.)

Problem in gallery and request for this article to be moved
A lot of people in the image gallery are represented as Tajiks while this is not true. Ferodwsi was born in Iran, therefore he could not have been Tajik. Secondly Rabia Balkhi was of Arab descent therefore she could not have been of Tajik descent either. Lastly, why is Muhammad of Ghori included in the gallery of Tajiks? He was not Taik, the ghorids themselves were believed to be Pashtuns and they were NOT native speakers of the Persian language rather patronizers of the culture. There seems to be a lot of vandalism and propaganda being posted by Tajiks here themselves, with no evidence being provided. I also request the Tajik article to be removed to the ""Persian People"" article as a sub-category to erase confusion of Tajiks being a separate group.
