[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] The UDC is an analytico-synthetic and faceted classification system featuring detailed vocabulary and syntax that enables powerful content indexing and information retrieval in large collections. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Since 1991, the UDC has been owned and managed by the UDC Consortium, [ 8 ] a non-profit international association of publishers with headquarters in The Hague , Netherlands. Unlike other library classification schemes that started their life as national systems, the UDC was conceived and maintained as an international scheme. Its translation into other languages started at the beginning of the 20th century and has since been published in various printed editions in over 40 languages. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] UDC Summary, an abridged Web version of the scheme, is available in over 50 languages. [ 11 ] The classification has been modified and extended over the years to cope with increasing output in all areas of human knowledge, and is still under continuous review to take account of new developments. [ 12 ] [ 13 ] Albeit originally designed as an indexing and retrieval system, due to its logical structure and scalability, UDC has become one of the most widely used knowledge organization systems in libraries, where it is used for either shelf arrangement, content indexing or both. [ 14 ] UDC codes can describe any type of document or object to any desired level of detail. These can include textual documents and other media such as films , video and sound recordings, illustrations , maps as well as realia such as museum objects. History The UDC was developed by the Belgian bibliographers Paul Otlet and Henri La Fontaine at the end of the 19th century. In 1895, they created the Universal Bibliographic Repertory ( Répertoire Bibliographique Universel ) (RBU) which was intended to become a comprehensive classified index to all published information. The idea that the RBU should take the form of a card catalogue came from the young American zoologist Herbert Haviland Field , who was at the time himself setting up a bibliographical agency in Zurich, the Concilium Bibliographicum . [ 15 ] A means of arranging the entries would be needed, and Otlet, having heard of the Dewey Decimal Classification , wrote to Melvil Dewey and obtained permission to translate it into French. The idea outgrew the plan of mere translation, and a number of radical innovations were made, adapting the purely enumerative classification (in which all the subjects envisaged are already listed and coded) into one which allows for synthesis (that is, the construction of compound numbers to denote interrelated subjects that could never be exhaustively foreseen); various possible relations between subjects were identified, and symbols assigned to represent them. In its first edition in French, Manuel du Répertoire bibliographique universel (1905), the UDC already included many features that were revolutionary in the context of knowledge classifications: tables of generally applicable (aspect-free) concepts—called common auxiliary tables; a series of special auxiliary tables with specific but re-usable attributes in a particular field of knowledge; an expressive notational system with connecting symbols and syntax rules to enable coordination of subjects and the creation of a documentation language proper. The Universal Bibliographic Repertory grew to more than eleven million records in the period before World War I . The catalogue and its content organized by UDC can still be seen in Mundaneum in Mons, Belgium. In 2013 this catalogue was accepted onto the UNESCO Memory of the World international register , recognising it as documentary heritage of global importance. [ 16 ] Application UDC is used in around 150,000 libraries in 130 countries and in many bibliographical services which require detailed content indexing. In a number of countries it is the main classification system for information exchange and is used in all types of libraries: public, school, academic and special libraries. [ 17 ] [ 18 ] [ 19 ] UDC is also used in national bibliographies of around 30 countries.

Collections of research articles in many countries covering decades of scientific output contain UDC codes.

[ 23 ] The design of UDC lends itself to machine readability, and the system has been used both with early automatic mechanical sorting devices, and modern library OPACs . [ 24 ] [ 25 ] Since 1993, a standard version of UDC has been maintained and distributed in a database format: UDC Master Reference File (UDC MRF) which is updated and released regularly. [ 26 ] The 2011 version of the MRF (released in 2012) contains over 70,000 classes. [ 1 ] In the past full printed editions used to have around 220,000 subdivisions. [ 11 ] Structure Notation A notation is a code commonly used in classification schemes to represent a class, i.e. a subject and its position in the hierarchy, to enable mechanical sorting and filing of subjects. UDC uses Arabic numerals arranged decimally. Every number is thought of as a decimal fraction with the initial decimal point omitted, which determines the filing order. An advantage of decimal notational systems is that they are infinitely extensible, and when new subdivisions are introduced, they need not disturb the existing allocation of numbers. For ease of reading, a UDC notation is usually punctuated after every third digit: Notation Caption (Class description) 539.120 Theoretical problems of elementary particles physics. Theories and models of fundamental interactions 539.120.2 Symmetries of quantum physics 539.120.22 Conservation laws 539.120.222 Translations. Rotations 539.120.224 Reflection in time and space 539.120.226 Space-time symmetries 539.120.23 Internal symmetries 539.120.3 Currents 539.120.4 Unified field theories 539.120.5 Strings In UDC the notation has two features that make the scheme easier to browse and work with: hierarchically expressive – the longer the notation, the more specific the class: removing the final digit automatically produces a broader class code. syntactically expressive – when UDC codes are combined, the sequence of digits is interrupted by a precise type of punctuation sign which indicates that the expression is a combination of classes rather than a simple class. For example, the colon in 34:32 indicates that there are two distinct notational elements: 34 Law. Jurisprudence and 32 Politics . In the following code 913(574.22)"19"(084.3) , the parentheses and quotes indicate four separate notational elements: 913 Regional geography , (574.22) North Kazakhstan , "19" 20th century and (084.3) Maps (document form) . Basic features and syntax UDC is an analytico-synthetic and faceted classification . It allows an unlimited combination of attributes of a subject and relationships between subjects to be expressed. UDC codes from different tables can be combined to present various aspects of document content and form, e.g. 94(410)"19"(075) History (main subject) of United Kingdom (place) in 20th century (time), a textbook (document form). Or: 37:2 Relationship between Education and Religion . Complex UDC expressions can be accurately parsed into constituent elements. UDC is also a disciplinary classification covering the entire universe of knowledge. [ 27 ] This type of classification can also be described as aspect or perspective , which means that concepts are subsumed and placed under the field in which they are studied. Thus, the same concept can appear in different fields of knowledge. This particular feature is usually implemented in UDC by re-using the same concept in various combinations with the main subject, e.g. a code for language in common auxiliaries of language is used to derive numbers for ethnic grouping, individual languages in linguistics and individual literatures. Or, a code from the auxiliaries of place, e.g. (410) United Kingdom , uniquely representing the concept of United Kingdom can be used to express 911(410) Regional geography of United Kingdom and 94(410) History of United Kingdom . Organization Concepts are organized in two kinds of tables: [ 28 ] Common auxiliary tables (including certain auxiliary signs). These tables contain facets of concepts representing general recurrent characteristics, applicable over a range of subjects throughout the main tables, including notions such as place, language of the text and physical form of the document, which may occur in almost any subject. UDC numbers from these tables, called common auxiliaries are simply added at the end of the number for the subject taken from the main tables. There are over 15,000 common auxiliaries in UDC. The main tables or main schedules containing the various disciplines and branches of knowledge are arranged in 9 main classes, numbered from 0 to 9 (with class 4 being vacant). At the beginning of each class there are also series of special auxiliaries, which express aspects that are recurrent within this specific class. Main tables in UDC contain more than 60,000 subdivisions. Main classes 0 Science and Knowledge . Organization . Computer Science . Information Science . Documentation . Librarianship . Institutions . Publications 1 Philosophy . Psychology 2 Religion . Theology 3 Social Sciences 4 vacant 5 Mathematics . Natural Sciences 6 Applied Sciences . Medicine , Technology 7 The Arts . Entertainment . Sport 8 Linguistics . Literature 9 Geography . History The vacant class 4 is the result of a planned schedule expansion. This class was freed by moving linguistics into class 8 in the 1960s to make space for future developments in the rapidly expanding fields of knowledge; primarily natural sciences and technology. Common auxiliary tables Common auxiliaries are aspect-free concepts that can be used in combination with any other UDC code from the main classes or with other common auxiliaries. They have unique notational representations that make them stand out in complex expressions. Common auxiliary numbers always begin with a certain symbol known as a facet indicator. For example, an equals sign always indicates a language; numbers starting with zero and enclosed in parentheses always indicate a document form. Thus (075) Textbook and =111 English can be combined to express, for example, (075)=111 Textbooks in English . When combined with numbers from the main UDC tables one might get: 2(075)=111 Religion textbooks in English or 51(075)=111 Mathematics textbooks in English . Indicator Table Concepts =... 1c Language (0...) 1d Form (1/9) 1e Place (=...) 1f Human ancestry, ethnic grouping and nationality "..." 1g Time -02 1k Properties -03 Materials -04 Relations, processes and operations -05 Persons and personal characteristics Connecting signs In order to preserve the precise meaning and enable accurate parsing of complex UDC expressions, a number of connecting symbols are made available to relate and extend UDC numbers. These are: Symbol Symbol name Meaning Example + plus coordination, addition 59+636 zoology and animal breeding / stroke consecutive extension 592/599 Systematic zoology (everything from 592 to 599 inclusive) : colon relation 17:7 Relation of ethics to art [ ] square brackets subgrouping 311:[622+669](485) statistics of mining and metallurgy in Sweden (the auxiliary qualifiers 622+669 are considered as a unit) * asterisk Introduces non-UDC notation 523.4*433 Planetology, minor planet Eros ( IAU authorized number after the asterisk) A/Z alphabetical extension Direct alphabetical specification 821.133.1MOL French literature, works of Molière Outline UDC classes in this outline are taken from the Multilingual Universal Decimal Classification Summary (UDCC Publication No. 088) released by the UDC Consortium under the Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 3.0 license (first release 2009, subsequent update 2012).

Technology Class 6 occupies the largest proportion of UDC schedules. It contains over 44,000 subdivisions. Each specific field of technology or industry usually contains more than one special auxiliary table with concepts needed to express operations, processes, materials and products. As a result, UDC codes are often created through the combination of various attributes. Equally, some parts of this class enumerate concepts to a great level of detail, for example, 621.882.212 Hexagon screws with additional shapes. Including: Flank screws. Collar screws.

Linguistics. Literature Tables for class 8 are fully faceted and details are expressed through combination with common auxiliaries of language ( Table 1c ) and a series of special auxiliary tables to indicate other facets or attributes in Linguistics or Literature. As a result, this class allows for great specificity in indexing although the schedules themselves occupy very little space in UDC. The subdivisions of 811 Languages or 821 Literature , for example, are derived from common auxiliaries of language =1/=9 (Table 1c) by substituting a point for the equals sign. Thus 811.111 English language (as a subject of a linguistic study) and 821.111 English literature derive from =111 English language . Common auxiliaries of place and time are also frequently used in this class to express place and time facets of Linguistics or Literature, e.g. 821.111(71)"18" English literature of Canada in the 19th century . Class Description 80 General questions relating to both linguistics and literature. Philology 801 Prosody. Auxiliary sciences and sources of philology 808 Rhetoric.

Home News Sport Business Innovation Health Culture Arts Travel Earth Audio Video Live Documentaries Home News Sport Business Innovation Health Culture Arts Travel Earth Audio Video Live Documentaries US accuses South Africa military of 'cosying up to Iran' 22 minutes ago Share Save Ed Habershon , Johannesburg and Natasha Booty Share Save AFP via Getty Images Warships from Iran and other Brics+ nations are conducting drills off the coast of South Africa The US has accused South Africa's defence ministry of refusing to obey orders from its own government to send home Iranian warships that have been conducting naval exercises in the African country's waters. "South Africa can't lecture the world on 'justice' while cozying up to Iran," it said in a statement. In response, South Africa's defence ministry said it was launching an inquiry to get to the root of these "serious allegations". Washington has criticised South Africa for inviting Iran at a time when a brutal crackdown against protests was happening in the Middle Eastern country. It said the South African military's actions did not amount to "non-alignment" but were instead a "choice to stand with Iran". "This is absolutely no surprise. Protests against the Iranian regime are happening right now, human rights organisations here in SA have been calling for support for the protesters," William Gumede, an associate professor at the University of Witwatersrand, told the BBC. "These are all democratic violations and human rights abuses and we have not heard a whimper from the ANC. That is the irony and hypocrisy, it's been criticising other regimes but it's been silent on what's happening in Iran." In the strongly worded statement posted on its social media accounts, the US embassy in South Africa said it noted with "concern and alarm" reports that the country's defence minister and its defence forces had defied government orders to ask Iran to leave. The US embassy said Iran's participation "undermined maritime security and regional stability" and was "unconscionable" as it suppressed protests back home, comparing them to "peaceful political activity South Africans fought so hard to gain for themselves". On Friday the office of Defence Minister Angie Motshekga said she "would like to place it on record" that President Cyril Ramaphosa's instructions had been "clearly communicated to all parties concerned, agreed upon and to be implemented and adhered to as such". Dubbed "Peace Resolve", the week-long naval drill got under way last Friday. It is being led by China - and involves other members from an alliance of major developing countries, including Russia, which when it was launched in 2006 was known as Bric. It took its acronym from its founding members Brazil, Russia, India and China - and when South Africa joined four years later an "s" was added to its name. With the recent addition of Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) the alliance is now called Brics+ - and its aim is to challenge the political and economic power of the wealthier Western nations. Iranian warships had already arrived in Cape Town when the order to turn them around reportedly came through.

These three resources are scientific literature databases offered to the public by the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM). NLM is not a publisher, but rather collects, indexes, and archives scientific literature published by other organizations. The presence of any article, book, or document in these databases does not imply an endorsement of, or concurrence with, the contents by NLM, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), or the U.S. Federal Government. Please see more below about our content and how our databases relate to you. Literature Database Content Content in NLM literature databases may be published by academic publishers or institutions, scholarly societies, or government and non-governmental organizations. To be added to a database, a publication must apply and be selected by NLM for inclusion in MEDLINE, PMC, or Bookshelf. PubMed indexes and makes searchable the contents of these databases; MEDLINE is the primary component of PubMed. Details on the content selection processes for each database can be found at: MEDLINE PubMed Central Bookshelf Once publications are selected for inclusion in a database, NLM does not review, evaluate, or judge the quality of individual articles and relies on the scientific publishing process to identify and address problems through published comments, corrections, and retractions (or, as in the case of preprints, withdrawal notices). The publisher is responsible for maintaining the currency of the scientific record and depositing all relevant updates to the appropriate NLM database. NLM literature databases also archive and index articles, author manuscripts, and book chapters that may be from publications that have not yet undergone scientific review by NLM, are traditionally out of scope for the NLM collection, or have not met NLM’s standards for inclusion in a given database if a paper is deposited under: The NIH Public Access Policy or a similar funder policy: NIH and other funders do not dictate where their funded authors may publish. Most records in the NLM literature databases have not been funded by the NIH or other agencies of the U.S. Federal Government. OR The PMC COVID-19 Collection : The articles deposited under this initiative – and the terms under which they are made available – are at the discretion of the publisher. To participate in this collaboration, a publisher must have journals in scope and eligible for inclusion the NLM Collection. PMC and PubMed also include preprints reporting NIH-supported research in support of the NIH Preprint Pilot . As preprints are interim research products that have not been peer reviewed, readers should be aware that any aspect of the research, including the results and conclusions, may change as a result of peer review.

Archives for lengthy talk pages Archiving is used on talk and project pages (never on articles) to keep them from getting too long to be useful, while retaining older discussions in case somebody should need to refer to them. The preferred method for archiving a talk page is to copy the older content to a series of subpages. This can be performed either by hand or automatically by a bot.

You do. Yes, anyone can be bold and edit an existing article or create a new one, and volunteers do not need to have any formal training. The people who create and edit articles on Wikipedia come from many countries, with individuals who all bring something different with them, but most importantly a willingness to help in building a free encyclopedia of reliable information. Any contributor to this encyclopedia, unregistered and registered alike, is called a " Wikipedian ", or, more formally, an "editor" of the encyclopedia . Almost all Wikipedians are volunteers . Other categories of Wikipedians have emerged as well. Who contributes to Wikipedia? Activity 900,000 / 900,000 Less than a million editors contribute each year. 120,000 / 900,000 About one in eight of them contributed last month. 9,000 / 900,000 About 9,000 editors made 30+ edits last month. The English Wikipedia currently has 51,067,563 users who have registered a username. In the last year, less than a million registered editors made any edit , and most of those have only made a few edits ever. Only a minority of users contribute regularly ( 264,777 have edited at all in the last 30 days; less than 10% of them averaged at least one edit per day ) Only a minority of those contributors participate in community discussions . An unknown but relatively large number of unregistered Wikipedians also contribute to the site. Demographics The type of people who were drawn to writing an encyclopedia for fun tend to be pretty smart people. The type of people who were drawn to writing an encyclopedia for fun tend to be pretty smart people. — Jimmy Wales · Founder of Wikipedia , July 2005 – TEDGlobal conference The greatest number, or plurality , of editors (20%) reside in the United States , followed by Germany (12%) and Russia (7%). The only country not in Europe or North America in the top 10 is India (3%). 84 / 100 The 2013 study The Wikipedia Gender Gap Revisited measured gender bias in survey completion and estimated that as of 2008, 84% of English Wikipedia editors were male. In the worldwide Wikipedia Editor Survey 2011 of all the Wikipedians, 91% of respondents were male. 13 / 100 13% of editors are 17 or under. 14 / 100 14% are in the group 18–21. 26 / 100 26% are 22–29. 19 / 100 19% are 30–39. 28 / 100 28% of editors are aged 40+. 59 / 100 59% of the editors are aged 17 to 40. Contributions come from diverse demographic and ethnographic segments: Mid-20s males and retired males are the largest demographics. See Gender database reports . 10–20% women of various ages , significant underrepresentation acknowledged by Gender bias on Wikipedia and Gender gap Students (e.g., in the context of a course) Enthusiasts (e.g., people with interest in a particular subject, like butterflies) Insiders (e.g., people who work for an organization, such as the Sierra Club) Dabblers (e.g., people who see some problem with an article and want to help) Scholars (e.g., researchers who want to use Wikipedia as an additional dissemination platform) Archivists (e.g., people who work or volunteer at a museum, archive, or library wanting to contribute artifacts, like 18th-century paintings) Marketers (e.g., individuals, staff, members, or a PR firm seeking to promote a product, service, or brand) Evil-doers (e.g., spammers, vandals) Many people in the Wikipedia community are conscious that the demographics of editors has systemic bias in the content of the site and efforts are being made to remedy these biases . How do editors contribute to Wikipedia? The content of any particular article is subject to editorial discretion developed via consensus. Wikipedia is not paper , which means we can write almost an unlimited amount on any topic. Still, there are limits on what we ought to include, and especially how we ought to write it. When an article is incomplete or inaccurate, you can edit the article to be more accurate and/or useful. Someone may place a notice at the top of the article indicating that it needs to be cleaned up . It is also possible to create a new article to share information that is not yet in Wikipedia. The way to decide whether a particular statement is accurate is to find independent reliable sources to affirm that statement, such as books, magazine articles, television news stories, trade journals, or other websites. For more guidance on evaluating the accuracy of Wikipedia articles, see researching with Wikipedia . It is Wikipedia's policy to add to the encyclopedia only statements that are verifiable and not original research . The Wikipedia style guide encourages editors to cite sources . Detailed citations allow readers of the article to easily verify the content in question. When a large group of people work to compile information on a given topic, disputes may arise. A useful feature of Wikipedia is the ability to tag an article, or a section of the article, as subject of a dispute about a neutral point of view . This feature is especially popular for controversial topics, topics subject to changing current events or other topics where divergent opinions exist. To resolve the dispute, the interested editors will share their points of view on the article's talk page . They will attempt to reach consensus so that all valid perspectives can be fairly represented. This allows Wikipedia to be a place not only of information, but of collaboration. Many users of Wikipedia consult the page history of an article in order to assess the number, and the perspective, of people who contributed to the article. You may also consult the talk page of any article to see what other readers and editors have to say about it. Wikipedia's best articles are highlighted in the list of featured articles . These articles were granted "featured" status because they were judged to be of high quality by other editors and users. (If later edits reduce the quality of a featured article, a user can nominate an article for removal from the list.) See also Who Wrote That? – browser extension permitting Wikipedia readers on several projects to learn who added specific text to an entry. Administration – discusses how Wikipedia requires a certain amount of administration in order to further the project's goals. Core content policies – a brief summary and background on Wikipedia's core content policies. Editor integrity – discusses how editors have a responsibility to uphold the integrity of Wikipedia and respect intellectual property rights of the sources they draw upon when they create and improve encyclopedia pages. Five pillars – describes the fundamental principles of Wikipedia summarized in five "pillars". Purpose – describes Wikipedia's motive for being by its founders. The essence of Wikipedia – describes how Wikipedia is the harnessing of the collective intelligence and collaborative efforts of editors who hold opposing points of view, in an attempt to preserve all serious contributions which are reliably sourced. Wikipedia is a volunteer service – discusses how editors on Wikipedia are mainly volunteers. Editors can contribute as much as they want, and however long as they desire. .mw-parser-output .navbar{display:inline;font-size:88%;font-weight:normal}.mw-parser-output .navbar-collapse{float:left;text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .navbar-boxtext{word-spacing:0}.mw-parser-output .navbar ul{display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;line-height:inherit}.mw-parser-output .navbar-brackets::before{margin-right:-0.125em;content:"[ "}.mw-parser-output .navbar-brackets::after{margin-left:-0.125em;content:" ]"}.mw-parser-output .navbar li{word-spacing:-0.125em}.mw-parser-output .navbar a>span,.mw-parser-output .navbar a>abbr{text-decoration:inherit}.mw-parser-output .navbar-mini abbr{font-variant:small-caps;border-bottom:none;text-decoration:none;cursor:inherit}.mw-parser-output .navbar-ct-full{font-size:114%;margin:0 7em}.mw-parser-output .navbar-ct-mini{font-size:114%;margin:0 4em}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .navbar li a abbr{color:var(--color-base)!important}@media(prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .navbar li a abbr{color:var(--color-base)!important}}@media print{.mw-parser-output .navbar{display:none!important}} v t e Basic information on Wikipedia - ( Search ) v t e Help directory menu Teahouse (interactive help for new editors) Help directory menu directory menu Teahouse (interactive help for new editors) About Wikipedia Readers' index to Wikipedia Statistics Administration FAQs Purpose Who writes Wikipedia?

They are well-written, contain factually accurate and verifiable information, are broad in coverage, neutral in point of view , stable, and illustrated, where possible, by relevant images with suitable copyright licenses . Good articles do not have to be as comprehensive as featured articles (FA), but they should not omit any major facets: a comparison of the criteria for good and featured articles describes further differences. Out of the 7,122,765 articles on Wikipedia, 43,187 are categorized as good articles (about 0.61% or one in 165), which are listed below. An additional 6,849 are listed as featured articles (about 1 in 1,040) and 4,718 as featured lists (about 1 in 1,510). Because articles are only included in one category, a good article that has been promoted to featured status is removed from the good articles category. Adding good and featured articles and lists together gives a total of 54,754 articles (about 0.77% or one in 131). A small green icon of a plus sign inside a circle ( ) appears in the top-right corner of the article indicating that the article is good. Any significant contributor may nominate an article if they believe it meets the good article criteria . Any impartial editor may review the article from the queue of good article nominations . If it meets the criteria, it is added to the list of good articles below. There are instructions for nominators and reviewers . Similarly, anyone who believes that an article no longer meets the good article criteria may propose to delist it by following the instructions for reassessment .

Many such books are reference works (in the first sense) which are usually used only briefly or photocopied from, and therefore do not need to be borrowed. Keeping them in the library assures that they will always be available for use on demand. Other reference-only books are ones that are too valuable to permit borrowers to take them out. Reference-only items may be shelved in a reference collection located separately from circulating items or individual reference-only items may be shelved among items available for borrowing.

Account Dashboard Publications Account settings Log out Page navigation Literature Database Content Liability Endorsement External Links Pop-Up Advertisements Medical Information and Advice Disclaimer This disclaimer relates to PubMed, PubMed Central (PMC), and Bookshelf. These three resources are scientific literature databases offered to the public by the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM). NLM is not a publisher, but rather collects, indexes, and archives scientific literature published by other organizations. The presence of any article, book, or document in these databases does not imply an endorsement of, or concurrence with, the contents by NLM, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), or the U.S. Federal Government. Please see more below about our content and how our databases relate to you. Literature Database Content Content in NLM literature databases may be published by academic publishers or institutions, scholarly societies, or government and non-governmental organizations. To be added to a database, a publication must apply and be selected by NLM for inclusion in MEDLINE, PMC, or Bookshelf. PubMed indexes and makes searchable the contents of these databases; MEDLINE is the primary component of PubMed. Details on the content selection processes for each database can be found at: MEDLINE PubMed Central Bookshelf Once publications are selected for inclusion in a database, NLM does not review, evaluate, or judge the quality of individual articles and relies on the scientific publishing process to identify and address problems through published comments, corrections, and retractions (or, as in the case of preprints, withdrawal notices). The publisher is responsible for maintaining the currency of the scientific record and depositing all relevant updates to the appropriate NLM database. NLM literature databases also archive and index articles, author manuscripts, and book chapters that may be from publications that have not yet undergone scientific review by NLM, are traditionally out of scope for the NLM collection, or have not met NLM’s standards for inclusion in a given database if a paper is deposited under: The NIH Public Access Policy or a similar funder policy: NIH and other funders do not dictate where their funded authors may publish. Most records in the NLM literature databases have not been funded by the NIH or other agencies of the U.S. Federal Government. OR The PMC COVID-19 Collection : The articles deposited under this initiative – and the terms under which they are made available – are at the discretion of the publisher. To participate in this collaboration, a publisher must have journals in scope and eligible for inclusion the NLM Collection. PMC and PubMed also include preprints reporting NIH-supported research in support of the NIH Preprint Pilot . As preprints are interim research products that have not been peer reviewed, readers should be aware that any aspect of the research, including the results and conclusions, may change as a result of peer review. Liability For documents and software available from this server, the U.S. Government does not warrant or assume any legal liability or responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any information, apparatus, product, or process disclosed. Endorsement NLM does not endorse or recommend any commercial products, processes, or services. The views and opinions of authors expressed on NLM's Web sites do not necessarily state or reflect those of the U.S. Government, and they may not be used for advertising or product endorsement purposes. External Links Some NLM Web pages may provide links to other Internet sites for the convenience of users. NLM is not responsible for the availability or content of these external sites, nor does NLM endorse, warrant, or guarantee the products, services, or information described or offered at these other Internet sites. Users cannot assume that the external sites will abide by the same Privacy Policy to which NLM adheres.

Pop-Up Advertisements When visiting our Web site, your Web browser may produce pop-up advertisements. These advertisements were most likely produced by other Web sites you visited or by third party software installed on your computer. The NLM does not endorse or recommend products or services for which you may view a pop-up advertisement on your computer screen while visiting our site. Medical Information and Advice It is not the intention of NLM to provide specific medical advice but rather to provide users with information to better understand their health and their diagnosed disorders. Specific medical advice will not be provided, and NLM urges you to consult with a qualified physician for diagnosis and for answers to your personal questions.

Account Dashboard Publications Account settings Log out NCBI National Center for Biotechnology Information Browser Advice for NCBI Web Pages Supported Browsers The NCBI web site supports the current release of Chrome, Firefox and Safari, and the previous two versions. It also supports the current release of Microsoft Edge. "Supports" means that NCBI will actively work to identify and fix bugs. Table of Contents: Tricks & Tips to Resolve Webpage Errors Enable JavaScript Enable Cookies Clear Browser Cache Clear Browser History Adjust Browser Privacy Settings Accesskeys Tricks & Tips to Resolve Webpage Errors To resolve page load errors Due to the complexity of the modern Internet, digital traffic flow can be intermittently disrupted in a number of places. These transient disruptions may cause your browser to display and/or cache incomplete or corrupted pages. Clearing your browser's cache and history can fix these problems. Please see the relevant sections below for instructions on how to do this. To resolve "Blocked for Possible Abuse" Errors If you see a message that specifically mentions being "Blocked for Possible Abuse", please note that the "Access Denied" error message is not meant to imply any maliciousness on your part. Because of the prevalence of firewalls, a single IP address may represent many users, all of which will be affected if we block the firewall's IP address. If this does occur, please send a message to info@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov with the following information: The exact error message you are seeing. Please cut and paste the entire error message into your next reply, including the "Client Address:" field. The exact URL you are trying to access. A description of what you are attempting to do. With this information, we will be able to unblock your system and, depending on the specifics of the case, can also offer advice about how to access our data in ways that will prevent future blocks. Enable JavaScript Most NCBI web pages require JavaScript in order to function as designed. To fully access all of the website's features, JavaScript must be enabled in your browser. To enable JavaScript in your browser: Please see the JavaScript support page for Firefox . Enable Cookies A "cookie" is a set of data stored by a web server on your computer. See the NLM Privacy Policy for additional information. NCBI uses cookies to record information about your interactions to support key functions of NCBI web pages. For example in PubMed and other NCBI databases, cookies enable interactive features such as Preview/Index, Clipboard, History, MyNCBI and paging through results. To enable cookies in your browser: Please see the Cookies support page for Firefox . For more information on your specific browser's cookies, please consult your browser's documentation. If you have problems using cookie-dependent features of PubMed even after enabling cookies, possible reasons may include: Cookies are blocked by your provider or institution. Check with your Internet provider and/or the system administrator at your institution to see if cookies can be accepted. Even if you have them enabled in your browser, if they are blocked by your provider or institution (e.g., by a firewall, proxy server, etc.), cookie-dependent features of PubMed will not work. Your computer's date and time settings are incorrect. Check your computer's time settings to ensure that they are correct. Clearing History and Cache & Adjusting Privacy Settings Modern browsers store copies of viewed web pages in a cache so that, if requested again, these pages can be viewed more quickly. However, if a page does not load completely or correctly, your browser may store a corrupted version of the page that will be shown when you attempt to load the page again. Clearing a browser's cache will fix these problems, and should always be a first step when confronting page load errors. In some cases clearing a browser's history may also fix these problems. Clear Browser Cache Please see the support page for Firefox . Clear Browser History Please see the support page for Firefox . Modern browsers also allow "private browsing", which prevents certain types of data flow and storage. Some stringent private browsing settings may disrupt data flows that the NCBI web site needs in order to function properly. If you cannot access NCBI web pages even after clearing your browser's cache and history, you may want to consider adjusting your browser's privacy settings. Adjust Browser Privacy Settings Please see the Privacy settings support page for Firefox . AccessKeys To assist users who may not have a mouse, trackball or touch mechanism to control a browser's cursor, NCBI has enabled the use of AccessKeys for easier keyboard navigation of common links and page elements within the NCBI website.

LCC is mainly used by large research and academic libraries , while most public libraries and small academic libraries use the Dewey Decimal Classification system, [ 1 ] which was first published in the U.S. by Melvil Dewey in 1876. [ 2 ] LCC was developed in 1897 by James Hanson (chief of the Catalog Department), with assistance from Charles Martel while they were working at the Library of Congress. [ 3 ] It was designed specifically for the purposes and collection of the Library of Congress, to replace the fixed location system developed by Thomas Jefferson . LCC has been criticized for lacking a sound theoretical basis; many of the classification decisions were driven by the practical needs of that library rather than epistemological considerations. [ 4 ] Although it divides subjects into broad categories, it is essentially enumerative in nature. That is, it provides a guide to the books actually in one library's collections, not a classification of the world. History The central core of the modern Library of Congress was formed from books sold to the government by Thomas Jefferson after the original collection was burned by the British in the War of 1812 . As a result, the original classification system used by the library was of Jefferson's invention. However, by the end of the nineteenth century, the collection had grown to over a million volumes and his system was deemed too unwieldy. [ 5 ] John Russell Young , the seventh Librarian of Congress, hired James Hanson and Charles Martel in 1897, [ 6 ] who began the development of a new classification system that would more accurately describe the collections the library held. Young's tenure as Librarian ended with his death in 1899, and his successor, Herbert Putnam , continued to implement the updates to the catalog through his long stay in the office. [ 7 ] By the time he departed from his post in 1939, all the classes except K (Law) were well developed. [ 5 ] In creating their classification system, Hanson and Martel evaluated several systems already in existence, including the Dewey Decimal System , Charles Ammi Cutter 's Cutter Expansive Classification , the Index Medicus , [ 8 ] and the Putnam Classification System (developed while Putnam was head librarian at the Minneapolis Public Library ). [ 9 ] The one closest to their needs was Cutter's; however, he died before the completion of his system. [ 10 ] Hanson and Martel thus decided to develop their own unique system, strongly based on his ideas. They published their first outline of the classification scheme in 1904. [ 5 ] Development of the classes continued throughout the twentieth century. The last class to be developed was K (Law): the first K schedule was published in 1969 and not completed until the 2004 publication of KB. [ 5 ] From 1996 onwards, the LCC schedules were available online, and since 2013, there have been no new print editions of the classification system. All updates are now distributed by the Library's Cataloging Distribution Service entirely online. [ 5 ] Design and organization LCC divides all knowledge into twenty-one basic classes, each given a single letter of the alphabet as an identifier. Most of these classes are divided further into two and three level sub-classes. [ 11 ] With these sub-classes, numerical ranges are assigned to topics, going from more general to more specific. Unlike in the Dewey Decimal Classification, where the numbers assigned to a topic iterate throughout the system (e.g., the ".05" tag indicated a periodical publication on the topic), the LCC numerical ranges are strictly hierarchal, only corresponding to their level on the outline. LCC is enumerative, meaning that it lists all the classes in officially published schedules, which are updated as needed by the Library of Congress. [ 11 ] After the range of numbers making up the topical division, call numbers often also include one or more Cutter numbers, modeled after the unfinished Cutter Expansive Classification index. The full LCC schedules contain tables that describe Cutter numbers for certain types of media, collections of work, and geographical areas. [ 5 ] Cutter numbers also can take the form of an author-specific code, containing a letter and several numbers corresponding to the author's last name. This serves to further distinguish publications and nominally alphabetize volumes within a topic section. The final component of a typical LCC call-number is the publication year, in full. [ 12 ] Library collections can add modifiers to distinguish specific volumes, such as "Copy 1." [ 1 ] LCC should not be confused with Library of Congress Control Numbers (LCCN), which are assigned to all books (and authors) and defines online catalog entries. [ a ] Library of Congress Classification is also distinct from Library of Congress Subject Headings , the system of labels such as "Glaciers" and "Glaciers—Fiction" that describe contents systematically. [ b ] One variation from the original LCC system is the National Library of Medicine classification system (NLM), which uses the initial letters W and QS – QZ , which are not used by LCC. Some libraries use NLM in conjunction with LCC, eschewing LCC's R, QM, and QP, which overlap with NLM's schema. [ 13 ] [ 14 ] Another is the Canadian Universities and the Canadian National Library using FC for Canadian History, a subclass that LCC has not officially adopted, but which it has agreed not to use for anything else. [ 15 ] [ 16 ] Letter Subject area A General Works B Philosophy, Psychology, Religion C Auxiliary Sciences of History D World History and History of Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, etc. E History of America F History of the Americas G Geography, Anthropology, and Recreation H Social Sciences J Political Science K Law L Education M Music N Fine Arts P Language and Literature Q Science R Medicine S Agriculture T Technology U Military Science V Naval Science Z Bibliography, Library Science, and General Information Resources Use and criticism Together, the Dewey Decimal System (DDC) and LCC make up the two main classification systems used in U.S. libraries. [ 1 ] LCC is favored by large academic and research libraries. Systems of classification can be evaluated on several metrics, including expressiveness (the ability of the numeration system to express the hierarchal and correlative relationships between topics), hospitality (the ability of the system to accommodate new subjects), and brevity (length of call numbers). [ 5 ] While LCC is significantly less expressive than DDC, it is extremely hospitable, mainly in the fact that five classes (I, O, W, X, and Y) lack any assignment to topics. [ 10 ] LCC call numbers also tend to be shorter than those in DDC. The main difference between DDC and LCC is their approach to classifying. Dewey's system is a comprehensive classification to all topics, with no regard to the actual collections a library might hold. While this has allowed it to be successfully adapted into more modern classification systems for use outside of libraries, such as the Universal Decimal Classification (UDC), [ 17 ] it does make it more unwieldy for large or specialized collections. On the other hand, Hanson and Martel designed LCC specifically for library use, which means while it does not completely enumerate the world, it does more reflect what books a library might hold. [ 4 ] Because LCC was designed around the collections of the Library of Congress, it has an American, European, and Christian bias, as reflected mainly in the earlier developed schedules of D (World History), E and F (History of the Americas), and B (Philosophy, Psychology, Religion). On the other hand, the later-developed K (Law) gives fairly even weight to global law. [ 11 ] Today, the various schedules are maintained and revised by the Library's Policy and Standards Division, in conjunction with experts in each field. However, updating various schedules with classification biases is generally assumed to be impractical due to the massive workload that would result in, [ 5 ] especially as the "discipline" based classes of LCC have been entrenched in the average library user's mind. [ 18 ] Like all classification systems, LCC struggles with catering to interdisciplinary scholars and topics, as ultimately, a book can only be shelved in a single location. [ 18 ] Additionally, LCC has a problem with "othering" marginalized groups, making works related to or authored by members of these groups particularly difficult to locate. [ 18 ] This is not a new issue, and libraries with more specialized collections about minority groups or issues sometimes eschew LCC, [ 18 ] with one example alternative classification being the Harvard–Yenching Classification , specifically developed for Chinese language materials.

For authors (people), the letter 'n' accompanies the number, and they too define URLs in a parallel catalog, such as "n83160096" and " ". (So LCCN may be called alphanumeric.) ^ LCSH too is developed by the Library and assigns alphanumeric IDs. A closer look at this example shows refinements defined in 2004, 2007, and 2009.

312) Christianity (from 312) Constantine I [ g ] (27 February 272 – 22 May 337), also known as Constantine the Great , or known mononymously as Constantine , was Roman emperor from AD 306 to 337 and the first Roman emperor to convert to Christianity . [ h ] He played a pivotal role in elevating the status of Christianity in Rome, the Edict of Milan decriminalising Christian practice and ceasing Christian persecution . This was a turning point in the Christianisation of the Roman Empire . He founded the city of Constantinople (now Istanbul ) and made it the capital of the Empire, which it remained for over a millennium. Born in Naissus , a city located in the province of Moesia Superior (now Niš , Serbia), Constantine was the son of Flavius Constantius , a Roman army officer from Moesia Superior, who would become one of the four emperors of the Tetrarchy . His mother, Helena , was a woman of low birth, probably from Bithynia . Later canonised as a saint , she is credited for the conversion of her son in some traditions, though others believe that Constantine converted her. He served with distinction under emperors Diocletian and Galerius . He began his career by campaigning in the eastern provinces against the Persians , before being recalled to the west in AD 305 to fight with his father in the province of Britannia . After his father's death in 306, Constantine was proclaimed as augustus (emperor) by his army at Eboracum ( York , England). He eventually emerged victorious in Civil wars of the Tetrarchy against the emperors Maxentius and Licinius to become the sole ruler of the Roman Empire by 324. Upon his accession, Constantine enacted many reforms to strengthen the empire. He restructured the government, separating civil and military authorities. To combat inflation, he introduced the solidus , a new gold coin that became the standard for Byzantine and European currencies for more than a thousand years. The Roman army was reorganised to consist of mobile units ( comitatenses ), often around the emperor, to serve on campaigns against external enemies or Roman rebels, and frontier-garrison troops ( limitanei ) which were capable of countering barbarian raids, but less and less capable of countering full-scale barbarian invasions . Constantine pursued campaigns against the tribes on the Roman frontiers —such as the Franks , the Alemanni , the Goths , and the Sarmatians —and resettled territories abandoned by his predecessors during the Crisis of the Third Century with citizens of Roman society. Although Constantine lived much of his life as a pagan , he later became a catechumen , as he began to favour Christianity in 312, finally being baptised by Eusebius of Nicomedia , an Arian bishop. He played an influential role in the proclamation of the Edict of Milan in 313, which legalized Christianity in the Roman Empire. He convoked the First Council of Nicaea in 325, which produced the Christian statement of belief known as the Nicene Creed . On his orders, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre was built at the site claimed to be the tomb of Jesus in Jerusalem and was deemed the holiest place in Christendom . He has historically been referred to as the "First Christian Emperor" but while he did favour the Christian Church, some modern scholars debate his beliefs and even his comprehension of Christianity. [ i ] He is venerated as a saint in Eastern Christianity , and he did much to push Christianity towards the mainstream of Roman culture. The age of Constantine marked a distinct epoch in the history of the Roman Empire and a pivotal moment in the evolution from classical antiquity to the Middle Ages . He built a new imperial residence in the city of Byzantium , which was officially renamed New Rome , while also taking on the name Constantinople in his honour. It subsequently served as the capital of the empire for more than a thousand years—with the Eastern Roman Empire for most of that period commonly referred to retrospectively as the Byzantine Empire in English. In leaving the empire to his sons and other members of the Constantinian dynasty , Constantine's immediate political legacy was the replacement of Diocletian's Tetrarchy with the principle of dynastic succession . His memory was held in high regard during the lifetime of his children and for centuries after his reign. The medieval church held him up as a paragon of virtue, while secular rulers invoked him as a symbol of imperial legitimacy. The rediscovery of anti-Constantinian sources in the early Renaissance engendered more critical appraisals of his reign, with modern and contemporary scholarship often seeking to balance the extremes of earlier accounts. Sources Constantine was a ruler of major importance and has always been a controversial figure. [ 4 ] The fluctuations in his reputation reflect the nature of the ancient sources for his reign. These are abundant and detailed, but they have been strongly influenced by the official propaganda of the period and are often one-sided. [ 5 ] No contemporaneous histories or biographies dealing with his life and rule have survived; the nearest alternative is Eusebius 's Vita Constantini , which offers a mixture of eulogy and hagiography [ 6 ] written between 335 and 339 [ 7 ] to extol Constantine's moral and religious virtues. [ 8 ] The Vita creates a contentiously positive image of Constantine, [ 9 ] and modern historians have frequently challenged its reliability. [ 10 ] The fullest secular life of Constantine is the anonymous Origo Constantini , a work of uncertain date which focuses on military and political events to the neglect of cultural and religious matters. [ 11 ] Lactantius ' De mortibus persecutorum , a political Christian pamphlet on the reigns of Diocletian and the Tetrarchy , provides valuable but tendentious detail on Constantine's predecessors and early life. [ 12 ] [ 13 ] The ecclesiastical histories of Socrates , Sozomen , and Theodoret describe the ecclesiastic disputes of Constantine's later reign. Written during the reign of Theodosius II (r. 402–450), a century after Constantine's reign, these ecclesiastical historians obscure the events and theologies of the Constantinian period through misdirection, misrepresentation, and deliberate obscurity. [ 12 ] [ 13 ] [ 14 ] The contemporary writings of the orthodox Christian Athanasius of Alexandria and the ecclesiastical history of the Arian Philostorgius also survive, though their biases are no less firm. [ 15 ] The epitomes of Aurelius Victor ( De Caesaribus ), Eutropius ( Breviarium ), Festus ( Breviarium ), and the anonymous author of the Epitome de Caesaribus offer compressed secular political and military histories of the period. Although not Christian, the epitomes paint a favourable image of Constantine but omit reference to Constantine's religious policies. [ 12 ] [ 16 ] The Panegyrici Latini , a collection of panegyrics from the late 3rd and early 4th centuries, provides valuable information on the politics and ideology of the tetrarchic period and the early life of Constantine. [ 12 ] [ 17 ] In addition, contemporary architecture—such as the Arch of Constantine in Rome and palaces in Gamzigrad and Córdoba [ 18 ] — epigraphic remains, and the coinage of the era complement the literary sources. [ 12 ] [ 17 ] Early life Constantine was born on 27 February 272. [ 19 ] While his official birthday is recorded in sources, his year of birth is not, and scholars have given several estimates between 271 and 280, with most leaning for 272 or 273. However, the evidence points to 272 being the correct year. [ 19 ] [ j ] He was born inside the city of Naissus, during a time when the unity of the Empire was threatened by the breakaway wars of the Palmyrene Empire . The city (modern Niš , Serbia) was located in Dardania within the province of Moesia Superior . [ 21 ] [ 22 ] His father was Flavius Constantius , [ k ] an Illyrian [ 26 ] [ 27 ] [ 23 ] [ l ] or, according to his nephew, Julian The Apostate , a Thracian . [ 29 ] His original full name, as well as that of his father, is not known. [ 30 ] [ 31 ] His praenomen is variously given as Lucius , Marcus and Gaius . [ 31 ] [ m ] Whatever the case, praenomina had already disappeared from most public records by this time. [ 33 ] He also adopted the name "Valerius", the nomen of emperor Diocletian , following his father's ascension as caesar . [ 31 ] [ 30 ] Constantine probably spent little time with his father [ 34 ] who was an officer in the Roman army, part of Emperor Aurelian 's imperial bodyguard. Being described as a tolerant and politically skilled man, [ 35 ] [ 36 ] Constantius advanced through the ranks, earning the governorship of Dalmatia from Emperor Diocletian, another of Aurelian's companions from Illyricum , in 284 or 285. [ 37 ] Constantine's mother was Helena , a woman of low social standing, possibly from Drepanum (later renamed Helenopolis ) of Bithynia , which would likely have made her a Greek -speaker. [ 38 ] [ 39 ] [ 40 ] It is uncertain whether she was legally married to Constantius or merely his concubine . [ 41 ] Constantine's own language was Latin , and during his public speeches in the church councils, which were held in Greek, he needed Greek translators. [ 42 ] In April 286 Diocletian declared Maximian , another colleague from Illyricum, his co-emperor. Each emperor would have his own court, his own military and administrative faculties, and each would rule with a separate praetorian prefect as chief lieutenant. [ 43 ] Maximian ruled in the West, from his capitals at Mediolanum ( Milan , Italy) or Augusta Treverorum ( Trier , Germany), while Diocletian ruled in the East, from Nicomedia ( İzmit , Turkey). The division was merely pragmatic: the empire was called "indivisible" in official panegyric, and both emperors could move freely throughout the empire. [ 44 ] In 288, Maximian appointed Constantius to serve as his praetorian prefect in Gaul . Constantius left Helena to marry Maximian's stepdaughter Theodora in 288 or 289. [ 45 ] Diocletian divided the empire again in 293, appointing two caesars to rule over further subdivisions of East and West. Each would be subordinate to his respective augustus but would act with supreme authority in his assigned lands. This system would later be called the Tetrarchy. Diocletian's first appointee for the office of Caesar was Constantius ; his second was Galerius , a native of Felix Romuliana . According to Lactantius , Galerius was a brutal, animalistic man. Although he shared the paganism of Rome's aristocracy, he seemed to them an alien figure, a semi-barbarian. [ 46 ] On 1 March, Constantius was promoted to the office of Caesar , and dispatched to Gaul to fight the rebels Carausius and Allectus . In spite of meritocratic overtones, the Tetrarchy retained vestiges of hereditary privilege, and Constantine became the prime candidate for future appointment as Caesar as soon as his father took the position. Constantine went to the court of Diocletian, where he lived as his father's heir presumptive . [ 47 ] In the East Constantine received a formal education at Diocletian's court, where he learned Latin literature, Greek, and philosophy. [ 48 ] The cultural environment in Nicomedia was open, fluid, and socially mobile; in it, Constantine could mix with intellectuals both pagan and Christian. He may have attended the lectures of Lactantius, a Christian scholar of Latin in the city. [ 49 ] Because Diocletian did not completely trust Constantius—none of the Tetrarchs fully trusted their colleagues—Constantine was held as something of a hostage, a tool to ensure Constantius' best behavior. Constantine was nonetheless a prominent member of the court: he fought for Diocletian and Galerius in Asia and served in a variety of tribunates ; he campaigned against barbarians on the Danube in 296 and fought the Persians under Diocletian in Syria in 297, as well as under Galerius in Mesopotamia in 298–299. [ 50 ] [ 51 ] By late 305, according to some, he had become a tribune of the first order, a tribunus ordinis primi . [ 51 ] [ 52 ] Constantine had returned to Nicomedia from the eastern front by the spring of 303, in time to witness the beginnings of Diocletian's " Great Persecution ", the most severe persecution of Christians in Roman history. [ 53 ] [ 54 ] In late 302, Diocletian and Galerius sent a messenger to the oracle of Apollo at Didyma with an inquiry about Christians. [ 55 ] [ 56 ] Constantine could recall his presence at the palace when the messenger returned and Diocletian accepted the imperial court's demands for universal persecution. [ 57 ] [ 58 ] On 23 February 303, Diocletian ordered the destruction of Nicomedia s new church, condemned its scriptures to the flames, and had its treasures seized. In the months that followed, churches and scriptures were destroyed, Christians were deprived of official ranks, and priests were imprisoned. [ 59 ] It is unlikely that Constantine played any role in the persecution. [ 60 ] In his later writings, he attempted to present himself as an opponent of Diocletian's "sanguinary edicts" against the "Worshippers of God", [ 61 ] [ 62 ] but nothing indicates that he opposed it effectively at the time. Although no contemporary Christian challenged Constantine for his inaction during the persecutions, it remained a political liability throughout his life. [ 63 ] On 1 May 305 Diocletian, as a result of a debilitating sickness taken in the winter of 304–305, announced his resignation. In a parallel ceremony in Milan , Maximian did the same. [ 64 ] Lactantius states that Galerius manipulated the weakened Diocletian into resigning and forced him to accept Galerius' allies in the imperial succession. According to Lactantius, the crowd listening to Diocletian's resignation speech believed, until the last moment, that Diocletian would choose Constantine and Maxentius (Maximian's son) as his successors. [ 65 ] [ 66 ] It was not to be: Constantius and Galerius were promoted to augusti , while Severus and Maximinus , Galerius' nephew, were appointed their caesars respectively. Constantine and Maxentius were ignored. [ 67 ] Some of the ancient sources detail plots that Galerius made on Constantine's life in the months following Diocletian's abdication. They assert that Galerius assigned Constantine to lead an advance unit in a cavalry charge through a swamp on the middle Danube, made him enter into single combat with a lion, and attempted to kill him in hunts and wars. Constantine always emerged victorious: the lion emerged from the contest in a poorer condition than Constantine; Constantine returned to Nicomedia from the Danube with a Sarmatian captive to drop at Galerius' feet. [ 68 ] [ 69 ] It is uncertain how much these tales can be trusted. [ 70 ] In the West Constantine recognised the implicit danger in remaining at Galerius' court, where he was held as a virtual hostage. His career depended on being rescued by his father in the West. Constantius was quick to intervene. In the late spring or early summer of 305, Constantius requested leave for his son to help him campaign in Britain. After a long evening of drinking, Galerius granted the request. Constantine's later propaganda describes how he fled the court in the night, before Galerius could change his mind. He rode from post-house to post-house at high speed, hamstringing every horse in his wake. By the time Galerius awoke the following morning, Constantine had fled too far to be caught. Constantine joined his father in Gaul , at Bononia ( Boulogne ) before the summer of 305. [ 71 ] From Bononia they crossed the English Channel to Britain and made their way to Eboracum ( York ), capital of the province of Britannia Secunda and home to a large military base. Constantine was able to spend a year in northern Britain at his father's side, campaigning against the Picts beyond Hadrian's Wall in the summer and autumn. [ 72 ] Constantius' campaign, like that of Septimius Severus before it, probably advanced far into the north without achieving great success. [ 73 ] Constantius had become severely sick over the course of his reign and died on 25 July 306 in Eboracum. Before dying, he declared his support for raising Constantine as emperor. The Alamannic king Chrocus , a barbarian taken into service under Constantius, then proclaimed Constantine as augustus. The troops loyal to Constantius' memory followed him in acclamation. Gaul and Britain quickly accepted his rule; [ 74 ] Hispania , which had been in his father's domain for less than a year, rejected it. [ 75 ] Constantine sent Galerius an official notice of Constantius' death and his own acclamation. Along with the notice, he included a portrait of himself in the robes of an Augustus. [ 74 ] The portrait was wreathed in bay . [ 76 ] He requested recognition as heir to his father's throne and passed off responsibility for his unlawful ascension on his army, claiming they had "forced it upon him". [ 77 ] Galerius was put into a fury by the message; he almost set the portrait and messenger on fire. [ 78 ] His advisers calmed him and argued that outright denial of Constantine's claims would mean certain war. [ 79 ] Galerius was compelled to compromise: he granted Constantine the title "caesar" rather than "augustus" (the latter office went to Severus instead). Wishing to make it clear that he alone gave Constantine legitimacy, Galerius personally sent Constantine the emperor's traditional purple robes . Constantine accepted the decision, knowing that it would remove doubts as to his legitimacy. [ 80 ] Reign Constantine's share of the empire consisted of Britain, Gaul, and Spain, and he commanded one of the largest Roman armies which was stationed along the important Rhine frontier. [ 81 ] He remained in Britain after his promotion to emperor, driving back the tribes of the Picts and securing his control in the northwestern dioceses. He completed the reconstruction of military bases begun under his father's rule, and he ordered the repair of the region's roadways. [ 82 ] He then left for Augusta Treverorum ( Trier ) in Gaul, the Tetrarchic capital of the northwestern Roman Empire. [ 83 ] The Franks learned of Constantine's acclamation and invaded Gaul across the lower Rhine over the winter of 306–307. [ 84 ] He drove them back beyond the Rhine and captured kings Ascaric and Merogais ; the kings and their soldiers were fed to the beasts of Trier Amphitheater in the adventus (arrival) celebrations which followed. [ 85 ] Constantine began a major expansion of Trier. He strengthened the circuit wall around the city with military towers and fortified gates, and he began building a palace complex in the northeastern part of the city. To the south of his palace, he ordered the construction of a large formal audience hall and a massive imperial bathhouse. He sponsored many building projects throughout Gaul during his tenure as emperor of the West, especially in Augustodunum ( Autun ) and Arelate ( Arles ). [ 88 ] According to Lactantius, Constantine followed a tolerant policy towards Christianity, although he was not yet a Christian. He probably judged it a more sensible policy than open persecution [ 89 ] and a way to distinguish himself from the "great persecutor" Galerius. [ 90 ] He decreed a formal end to persecution and returned to Christians all that they had lost under the first of the persecuting edicts. [ 91 ] Constantine was largely untried and had a hint of illegitimacy about him; he relied on his father's reputation in his early propaganda, which gave as much coverage to his father's deeds as to his. [ 92 ] His military skill and building projects, however, soon gave the panegyrist the opportunity to comment favourably on the similarities between father and son, and Eusebius remarked that Constantine was a "renewal, as it were, in his own person, of his father's life and reign". [ 93 ] Constantinian coinage, sculpture, and oratory also show a tendency for disdain towards the "barbarians" beyond the frontiers. He minted a coin issue after his victory over the Alemanni which depicts weeping and begging Alemannic tribesmen, "the Alemanni conquered" beneath the phrase "Romans' rejoicing". [ 94 ] There was little sympathy for these enemies; as his panegyrist declared, "It is a stupid clemency that spares the conquered foe." [ 95 ] Maxentius's rebellion Following Galerius's recognition of Constantine as caesar, Constantine's portrait was brought to Rome, as was customary. Maxentius mocked the portrait's subject as the son of a harlot and lamented his own powerlessness. [ 96 ] Maxentius, envious of Constantine's authority, [ 97 ] seized the title of emperor on 28 October 306. Galerius refused to recognise him but failed to unseat him. Severus was sent against Maxentius in April 307, [ 98 ] but during the campaign, Severus' armies, previously under command of Maxentius' father Maximian, defected, and Severus was seized and imprisoned. [ 99 ] Maximian, brought out of retirement by his son's rebellion, left for Gaul to confer with Constantine. He offered to marry his daughter Fausta to Constantine and elevate him to augustan rank. In return, Constantine would reaffirm the old family alliance between Maximian and Constantius and offer support to Maxentius' cause in Italy. Constantine accepted and married Fausta in Trier in summer 307. [ n ] Constantine gave Maxentius his meagre support, offering Maxentius political recognition. [ 103 ] Constantine remained aloof from the Italian conflict, however. Over the spring and summer of 307 he had left Gaul for Britain to avoid any involvement in the Italian turmoil; [ 104 ] now, instead of giving Maxentius military aid, he sent his troops against Germanic tribes along the Rhine. In 308, he raided the territory of the Bructeri and made a bridge across the Rhine at Colonia Agrippinensium ( Cologne ). In 310, he marched to the northern Rhine and fought the Franks. When not campaigning, he toured his lands advertising his benevolence and supporting the economy and the arts. His refusal to participate in the war increased his popularity among his people and strengthened his power base in the West. [ 105 ] Maximian returned to Rome in the winter of 307–308 but soon fell out with his son. In early 308, after a failed attempt to usurp Maxentius' title, Maximian returned to Constantine's court. [ 106 ] On 11 November 308 Galerius called a general council at the military city of Carnuntum ( Petronell-Carnuntum , Austria) to resolve the instability in the western provinces. In attendance were Diocletian, briefly returned from retirement, Galerius, and Maximian. Maximian was forced to abdicate again and Constantine was again demoted to caesar. Licinius , one of Galerius' old military companions, was appointed augustus in the western regions. The new system did not last long: Constantine refused to accept the demotion and continued to style himself as augustus on his coinage, even as other members of the Tetrarchy referred to him as a caesar on theirs. Maximinus was frustrated that he had been passed over for promotion while the newcomer Licinius had been raised to the office of augustus and demanded that Galerius promote him. Galerius offered to call both Maximinus and Constantine "sons of the augusti", [ 107 ] but neither accepted the new title. By the spring of 310, Galerius was referring to both men as augusti. [ 108 ] Maximian's rebellion In 310 a dispossessed Maximian rebelled against Constantine while Constantine was away campaigning against the Franks. Maximian had been sent south to Arles with a contingent of Constantine's army, in preparation for any attacks by Maxentius in southern Gaul. He announced that Constantine was dead and took up the imperial purple. In spite of a large donative pledge to any who would support him as emperor, most of Constantine's army remained loyal to their emperor, and Maximian was soon compelled to leave. When Constantine heard of the rebellion, he abandoned his campaign against the Franks and marched his army up the Rhine. [ 110 ] At Cabillunum ( Chalon-sur-Saône ), he moved his troops onto waiting boats to row down the slow waters of the Saône to the quicker waters of the Rhone . He disembarked at Lugdunum ( Lyon ). [ 111 ] Maximian fled to Massilia ( Marseille ), a town better able to withstand a long siege than Arles. It made little difference, however, as loyal citizens opened the rear gates to Constantine. Maximian was captured and reproved for his crimes. Constantine granted some clemency but strongly encouraged his suicide. In July 310, Maximian hanged himself . [ 110 ] In spite of the earlier rupture in their relations, Maxentius was eager to present himself as his father's devoted son after his death. [ 112 ] He began minting coins with his father's deified image, proclaiming his desire to avenge Maximian's death. [ 113 ] Constantine initially presented the suicide as an unfortunate family tragedy. By 311, however, he was spreading another version. According to this, after Constantine had pardoned him, Maximian planned to murder Constantine in his sleep. Fausta learned of the plot and warned Constantine, who put a eunuch in his own place in bed. Maximian was apprehended when he killed the eunuch and was offered suicide, which he accepted. [ 114 ] Along with using propaganda, Constantine instituted a damnatio memoriae on Maximian, destroying all inscriptions referring to him and eliminating any public work bearing his image. [ 115 ] The death of Maximian required a shift in Constantine's public image. He could no longer rely on his connection to the elder Emperor Maximian and needed a new source of legitimacy. [ 116 ] In a speech delivered in Gaul on 25 July 310, the anonymous orator reveals a previously unknown dynastic connection to Claudius II , a 3rd-century emperor famed for defeating the Goths and restoring order to the empire. Breaking away from tetrarchic models, the speech emphasises Constantine's ancestral prerogative to rule, rather than principles of imperial equality. The new ideology expressed in the speech made Galerius and Maximian irrelevant to Constantine's right to rule. [ 117 ] Indeed, the orator emphasises ancestry to the exclusion of all other factors: "No chance agreement of men, nor some unexpected consequence of favour, made you emperor," the orator declares to Constantine. [ 118 ] The oration also moves away from the religious ideology of the Tetrarchy, with its focus on twin dynasties of Jupiter and Hercules . Instead, the orator proclaims that Constantine experienced a divine vision of Apollo and Victory granting him laurel wreaths of health and a long reign. In the likeness of Apollo, Constantine recognised himself as the saving figure to whom would be granted "rule of the whole world", [ 119 ] as the poet Virgil had once foretold. [ 120 ] The oration's religious shift is paralleled by a similar shift in Constantine's coinage. In his early reign, the coinage of Constantine advertised Mars as his patron. From 310 on, Mars was replaced by Sol Invictus , a god conventionally identified with Apollo. [ 121 ] There is little reason to believe that either the dynastic connection or the divine vision are anything other than fiction, but their proclamation strengthened Constantine's claims to legitimacy and increased his popularity among the citizens of Gaul.

[ 123 ] His final act survives: a letter to provincials posted in Nicomedia on 30 April 311, proclaiming an end to the persecutions, and the resumption of religious toleration. [ 124 ] Eusebius maintains "divine providence [...] took action against the perpetrator of these crimes" and gives a graphic account of Galerius' demise: "Without warning suppurative inflammation broke out round the middle of his genitals, then a deep-seated fistula ulcer; these ate their way incurably into his innermost bowels. From them came a teeming indescribable mass of worms, and a sickening smell was given off, for the whole of his hulking body, thanks to over eating, had been transformed even before his illness into a huge lump of flabby fat, which then decomposed and presented those who came near it with a revolting and horrifying sight." [ 125 ] Galerius died soon after the edict's proclamation, [ 126 ] destroying what little remained of the Tetrarchy. [ 127 ] Maximinus mobilised against Licinius and seized Asia Minor . A hasty peace was signed on a boat in the middle of the Bosphorus . [ 128 ] While Constantine toured Britain and Gaul, Maxentius prepared for war. [ 129 ] He fortified northern Italy and strengthened his support in the Christian community by allowing it to elect Eusebius as bishop of Rome . [ 130 ] Maxentius' rule was nevertheless insecure. His early support dissolved in the wake of heightened tax rates and depressed trade; riots broke out in Rome and Carthage ; [ 132 ] and Domitius Alexander was able to briefly usurp his authority in Africa. [ 133 ] By 312, he was a man barely tolerated, not one actively supported, [ 134 ] even among Christian Italians. [ 135 ] In the summer of 311, Maxentius mobilised against Constantine while Licinius was occupied with affairs in the East. He declared war on Constantine, vowing to avenge his father's "murder". [ 136 ] To prevent Maxentius from forming an alliance against him with Licinius, [ 137 ] Constantine forged his own alliance with Licinius over the winter of 311–312 and offered him his sister Constantia in marriage. Maximinus considered Constantine's arrangement with Licinius an affront to his authority. In response, he sent ambassadors to Rome, offering political recognition to Maxentius in exchange for a military support, which Maxentius accepted. [ 138 ] According to Eusebius, inter-regional travel became impossible, and there was military buildup everywhere. There was "not a place where people were not expecting the onset of hostilities every day". [ 139 ] Constantine's advisers and generals cautioned against preemptive attack on Maxentius; [ 140 ] even his soothsayers recommended against it, stating that the sacrifices had produced unfavourable omens. [ 141 ] Constantine, with a spirit that left a deep impression on his followers, inspiring some to believe that he had some form of supernatural guidance, [ 142 ] ignored all these cautions. [ 143 ] Early in the spring of 312, [ 144 ] Constantine crossed the Cottian Alps with a quarter of his army, a force numbering about 40,000. [ 145 ] The first town his army encountered was Segusium ( Susa , Italy), a heavily fortified town that shut its gates to him. Constantine ordered his men to set fire to its gates and scale its walls. He took the town quickly. Constantine ordered his troops not to loot the town and advanced into northern Italy. [ 144 ] At the approach to the west of the important city of Augusta Taurinorum ( Turin , Italy), Constantine met a large force of heavily armed Maxentian cavalry. [ 146 ] In the ensuing Battle of Turin Constantine's army encircled Maxentius' cavalry, flanked them with his own cavalry, and dismounted them with blows from his soldiers' iron-tipped clubs. Constantine's armies emerged victorious. [ 147 ] Turin refused to give refuge to Maxentius' retreating forces, opening its gates to Constantine instead. [ 148 ] Other cities of the north Italian plain sent Constantine embassies of congratulation for his victory. He moved on to Milan, where he was met with open gates and jubilant rejoicing. Constantine rested his army in Milan until mid-summer 312, when he moved on to Brixia ( Brescia ). [ 149 ] Brescia's army was easily dispersed, [ 150 ] and Constantine quickly advanced to Verona where a large Maxentian force was camped. [ 151 ] Ruricius Pompeianus , general of the Veronese forces and Maxentius' praetorian prefect, [ 152 ] was in a strong defensive position since the town was surrounded on three sides by the Adige . Constantine sent a small force north of the town in an attempt to cross the river unnoticed. Ruricius sent a large detachment to counter Constantine's expeditionary force but was defeated. Constantine's forces successfully surrounded the town and laid siege. [ 153 ] Ruricius gave Constantine the slip and returned with a larger force to oppose Constantine. Constantine refused to let up on the siege and sent only a small force to oppose him. In the desperately fought encounter that followed, Ruricius was killed and his army destroyed. [ 154 ] Verona surrendered soon afterwards, followed by Aquileia , [ 155 ] Mutina ( Modena ), [ 156 ] and Ravenna . [ 157 ] The road to Rome was now wide open to Constantine. [ 158 ] Maxentius prepared for the same type of war he had waged against Severus and Galerius: he occupied Rome and prepared for a siege. [ 159 ] He still controlled Rome's Praetorian Guard , was well-stocked with African grain, and was surrounded on all sides by the seemingly impregnable Aurelian Walls . He ordered all bridges across the Tiber cut, reportedly on the counsel of the gods, [ 160 ] and left the rest of central Italy undefended; Constantine secured that region's support without challenge. [ 161 ] Constantine progressed slowly [ 162 ] along the Via Flaminia , [ 163 ] allowing the weakness of Maxentius to draw his regime further into turmoil. [ 162 ] Maxentius' support continued to weaken: at chariot races on 27 October, the crowd openly taunted Maxentius, shouting that Constantine was invincible. [ 164 ] Maxentius, no longer certain that he would emerge from a siege victorious, built a temporary boat bridge across the Tiber in preparation for a field battle against Constantine. [ 165 ] On 28 October 312, the sixth anniversary of his reign, he approached the keepers of the Sibylline Books for guidance. The keepers prophesied that, on that very day, "the enemy of the Romans" would die. Maxentius advanced north to meet Constantine in battle. [ 166 ] Milvian Bridge Maxentius' forces were still twice the size of Constantine's, and he organised them in long lines facing the battle plain with their backs to the river. [ 167 ] Constantine's army arrived on the field bearing unfamiliar symbols on their standards and their shields. [ 168 ] According to Lactantius "Constantine was directed in a dream to cause the heavenly sign to be delineated on the shields of his soldiers, and so to proceed to battle. He did as he had been commanded, and he marked on their shields the letter Χ, with a perpendicular line drawn through it and turned round thus at the top, being the cipher of Christ. Having this sign (☧), his troops stood to arms." [ 169 ] Eusebius describes a vision that Constantine had while marching at midday in which "he saw with his own eyes the trophy of a cross of light in the heavens, above the sun, and bearing the inscription, In Hoc Signo Vinces " ("In this sign thou shalt conquer"). [ 170 ] In Eusebius' account, Constantine had a dream the following night in which Christ appeared with the same heavenly sign and told him to make an army standard in the form of the labarum . [ 171 ] Eusebius is vague about when and where these events took place, [ 172 ] but it enters his narrative before the war begins against Maxentius. [ 173 ] He describes the sign as Chi (Χ) traversed by Rho (Ρ) to form ☧, representing the first two letters of the Greek word ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ (Christos). [ 174 ] [ 175 ] A medallion was issued at Ticinum in 315 which shows Constantine wearing a helmet emblazoned with the Chi Rho , [ 176 ] and coins issued at Siscia in 317/318 repeat the image. [ 177 ] The figure was otherwise rare and is uncommon in imperial iconography and propaganda before the 320s. [ 178 ] It was not completely unknown, however, being an abbreviation of the Greek word chrēston (good), having previously appeared on the coins of Ptolemy III Euergetes in the 3rd century BC. Following Constantine, centuries of Christians invoked the miraculous or the supernatural when justifying or describing their warfare. [ 179 ] Constantine deployed his own forces along the whole length of Maxentius' line. He ordered his cavalry to charge, and they broke Maxentius' cavalry. He then sent his infantry against Maxentius' infantry, pushing many into the Tiber where they were slaughtered and drowned. [ 167 ] The battle was brief, [ 180 ] and Maxentius' troops were broken before the first charge. [ 181 ] His horse guards and praetorians initially held their position, but they broke under the force of a Constantinian cavalry charge; they also broke ranks and fled to the river. Maxentius rode with them and attempted to cross the bridge of boats ( Ponte Milvio ), but he was pushed into the Tiber and drowned by the mass of his fleeing soldiers. [ 182 ] In Rome Constantine entered Rome on 29 October 312 [ 184 ] [ 185 ] and staged a grand adventus in the city which was met with jubilation. [ 186 ] Maxentius' body was fished out of the Tiber and decapitated, and his head was paraded through the streets for all to see. [ 187 ] After the ceremonies, the disembodied head was sent to Carthage, and Carthage offered no further resistance. [ 188 ] Unlike his predecessors, Constantine neglected to make the trip to the Capitoline Hill and perform customary sacrifices at the Temple of Jupiter . [ 189 ] However, he did visit the Senatorial Curia Julia , [ 190 ] and he promised to restore its ancestral privileges and give it a secure role in his reformed government; there would be no revenge against Maxentius' supporters. [ 191 ] In response, the Senate decreed him "title of the first name", which meant that his name would be listed first in all official documents, [ 192 ] and they acclaimed him as "the greatest augustus". [ 193 ] He issued decrees returning property that was lost under Maxentius, recalling political exiles, and releasing Maxentius' imprisoned opponents. [ 194 ] An extensive propaganda campaign followed, during which Maxentius' image was purged from all public places. He was written up as a "tyrant" and set against an idealised image of Constantine the "liberator". Eusebius is the best representative of this strand of Constantinian propaganda. [ 195 ] Maxentius' rescripts were declared invalid, and the honours that he had granted to leaders of the Senate were also invalidated. [ 196 ] Constantine also attempted to remove Maxentius' influence on Rome's urban landscape. All structures built by him were rededicated to Constantine, including the Temple of Romulus and the Basilica of Maxentius . [ 197 ] At the focal point of the basilica, a stone statue was erected of Constantine holding the Christian labarum in its hand. Its inscription bore the message which the statue illustrated: "By this sign, Constantine had freed Rome from the yoke of the tyrant." [ 198 ] Constantine also sought to upstage Maxentius' achievements. For example, the Circus Maximus was redeveloped so that its seating capacity was 25 times larger than that of Maxentius' racing complex on the Via Appia . [ 199 ] Maxentius' strongest military supporters were neutralised when Constantine disbanded the Praetorian Guard and Imperial Horse Guard . [ 200 ] The tombstones of the Imperial Horse Guard were ground up and used in a basilica on the Via Labicana , [ 201 ] and their former base was redeveloped into the Lateran Basilica on 9 November 312—barely two weeks after Constantine captured the city. [ 202 ] The Legio II Parthica was removed from Albano Laziale , [ 196 ] and the remainder of Maxentius' armies were sent to do frontier duty on the Rhine. [ 203 ] Wars against Licinius In the following years, Constantine gradually consolidated his military superiority over his rivals in the crumbling Tetrarchy. In 313, he met Licinius in Milan to secure their alliance by the marriage of Licinius and Constantine's half-sister Constantia. During this meeting, the emperors agreed on the so-called Edict of Milan , [ 204 ] officially granting full tolerance to Christianity and all religions in the empire. [ 205 ] The document had special benefits for Christians, legalising their religion and granting them restoration for all property seized during Diocletian's persecution. It repudiates past methods of religious coercion and used only general terms to refer to the divine sphere—"Divinity" and "Supreme Divinity", summa divinitas . [ 206 ] The conference was cut short, however, when news reached Licinius that his rival Maximinus had crossed the Bosporus and invaded European territory. Licinius departed and eventually defeated Maximinus, gaining control over the entire eastern half of the Roman Empire. Relations between the two remaining emperors deteriorated, as Constantine suffered an assassination attempt at the hands of a character that Licinius wanted elevated to the rank of Caesar; [ 207 ] Licinius, for his part, had Constantine's statues in Emona destroyed. [ 208 ] In either 314 or 316 the two augusti fought against one another at the Battle of Cibalae , with Constantine being victorious. They clashed again at the Battle of Mardia in 317 and agreed to a settlement in which Constantine's sons Crispus and Constantine II , and Licinius' son Licinius Junior were made caesars . [ 209 ] After this arrangement, Constantine ruled the dioceses of Pannonia and Macedonia and took residence at Sirmium , whence he could wage war on the Goths and Sarmatians in 322, and on the Goths in 323, defeating and killing their leader Rausimod . [ 207 ] In 320 Licinius allegedly reneged on the religious freedom promised by the Edict of Milan and began to oppress Christians anew, [ 210 ] generally without bloodshed, but resorting to confiscations and sacking of Christian office-holders. [ 211 ] Although this characterisation of Licinius as anti-Christian is somewhat doubtful, the fact is that he seems to have been far less open in his support of Christianity than Constantine. Therefore, Licinius was prone to see the Church as a force more loyal to Constantine than to the Imperial system in general, [ 212 ] as the explanation offered by the Church historian Sozomen . [ 213 ] This dubious arrangement eventually became a challenge to Constantine in the West, climaxing in the great civil war of 324. Constantine's Christian eulogists present the war as a battle between Christianity and paganism; Licinius, aided by Gothic mercenaries, represented the past and ancient paganism, while Constantine and his Franks marched under the standard of the labarum . [ citation needed ] Outnumbered but fired by their zeal, Constantine's army emerged victorious in the Battle of Adrianople . Licinius fled across the Bosphorus and appointed Martinian , his magister officiorum , as nominal augustus in the West, but Constantine next won the Battle of the Hellespont and finally the Battle of Chrysopolis on 18 September 324. [ 214 ] Licinius and Martinian surrendered to Constantine at Nicomedia on the promise their lives would be spared: they were sent to live as private citizens in Thessalonica and Cappadocia respectively, but in 325 Constantine accused Licinius of plotting against him and had them both arrested and hanged; Licinius' son (the son of Constantine's half-sister) was killed in 326. [ 215 ] Thus Constantine became the sole emperor of the Roman Empire. [ 216 ] Later rule Foundation of Constantinople Diocletian had chosen Nicomedia in the East as his capital during the Tetrarchy [ 218 ] —not far from Byzantium, well situated to defend Thrace, Asia, and Egypt, all of which had required his military attention. [ 219 ] Constantine had recognised the shift of the empire from the remote and depopulated [ why? ] West to the richer cities of the East, and the military strategic importance of protecting the Danube from barbarian excursions and Asia from a hostile Persia in choosing his new capital [ 220 ] as well as being able to monitor shipping traffic between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean. [ 221 ] Licinius' defeat came to represent the defeat of a rival centre of pagan and Greek-speaking political activity in the East, as opposed to the Christian and Latin-speaking Rome, and it was proposed that a new Eastern capital should represent the integration of the East into the Roman Empire as a whole, as a centre of learning, prosperity, and cultural preservation for the whole of the Eastern Roman Empire. [ 222 ] Among the various locations proposed for this alternative capital, Constantine appears to have toyed earlier with Serdica (present-day Sofia ), as he was reported saying that " Serdica is my Rome ". [ 223 ] Sirmium and Thessalonica were also considered. [ 224 ] Eventually, however, Constantine decided to work on the Greek city of Byzantium , which offered the advantage of having already been extensively rebuilt on Roman patterns of urbanism during the preceding century by Septimius Severus and Caracalla , who had already acknowledged its strategic importance. [ 225 ] The city was thus founded in 324, [ 226 ] dedicated on 11 May 330 [ 226 ] and renamed Constantinopolis ("Constantine's City" or Constantinople in English). Special commemorative coins were issued in 330 to honour the event. The new city was later protected by the relics of the True Cross , the Rod of Moses and other holy relics, though a cameo now at the Hermitage Museum also represented Constantine crowned by the tyche of the new city. [ 227 ] The figures of old gods were either replaced or assimilated into a framework of Christian symbolism . Generations later there was the story that a divine vision led Constantine to this spot, and an angel no one else could see led him on a circuit of the new walls. [ 228 ] The capital would often be compared to the 'old' Rome as Nova Roma Constantinopolitana , the "New Rome of Constantinople".

In February 313, he met with Licinius in Milan and developed the Edict of Milan, which stated that Christians should be allowed to follow their faith without oppression. [ 230 ] This removed penalties for professing Christianity, under which many had been martyred previously , and it returned confiscated Church property. The edict protected all religions from persecution, not only Christianity, allowing anyone to worship any deity that they chose. A similar edict had been issued in 311 by Galerius, senior emperor of the Tetrarchy, which granted Christians the right to practise their religion but did not restore any property to them. [ 231 ] The Edict of Milan included several clauses which stated that all confiscated churches would be returned, as well as other provisions for previously persecuted Christians. Some scholars think that Helena adopted Christianity as an adult, and according to Eusebius she was converted by Constantine, [ 232 ] but other historians debate whether Constantine adopted his mother Helena's Christianity in his youth or whether he adopted it gradually over the course of his life. [ 233 ] Constantine possibly retained the title of pontifex maximus which emperors bore as heads of the ancient Roman religion until Gratian renounced the title. [ 234 ] [ 235 ] According to Christian writers, Constantine was over 40 years old when he finally declared himself a Christian, making it clear that he owed his successes only to the protection of the Christian God. [ 236 ] Despite these declarations of being a Christian, he waited to be baptised until on his deathbed, believing that the baptism would release him of any sins he committed in the course of carrying out his policies while emperor. [ 237 ] He supported the Church financially, built basilicas, granted privileges to clergy (such as exemption from certain taxes), promoted Christians to high office, and returned property confiscated during the long period of persecution. [ 238 ] His most famous building projects include the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and Old St. Peter's Basilica . In constructing the Old St. Peter's Basilica, Constantine went to great lengths to erect the basilica on top of St. Peter 's resting place, so much so that it even affected the design of the basilica, including the challenge of erecting it on the hill where St. Peter rested, making its complete construction time over 30 years from the date Constantine ordered it to be built. Constantine might not have patronised Christianity alone. A triumphal arch was built in 315 to celebrate his victory in the Battle of the Milvian Bridge which was decorated with images of the goddess Victoria , and sacrifices were made to pagan gods at its dedication, including Apollo , Diana , and Hercules . Absent from the arch are any depictions of Christian symbolism. However, the arch was commissioned by the Senate, so the absence of Christian symbols may reflect the role of the Curia at the time as a pagan redoubt. [ 239 ] In 321, he legislated that the venerable Sunday should be a day of rest for all citizens. [ 240 ] In 323, he issued a decree banning Christians from participating in state sacrifices. [ 241 ] After the pagan gods had disappeared from his coinage, Christian symbols appeared as Constantine's attributes, the chi rho between his hands or on his labarum, [ 242 ] as well on the coinage. [ 243 ] The reign of Constantine established a precedent for the emperor to have great influence and authority in the early Christian councils, most notably the dispute over Arianism. Constantine disliked the risks to societal stability that religious disputes and controversies brought with them, preferring to establish an orthodoxy. [ 244 ] His influence over the Church councils was to enforce doctrine, root out heresy, and uphold ecclesiastical unity; the Church's role was to determine proper worship, doctrines, and dogma. [ 245 ] North African bishops struggled with Christian bishops who had been ordained by Donatus in opposition to Caecilian from 313 to 316. The African bishops could not come to terms, and the Donatists asked Constantine to act as a judge in the dispute. Three regional Church councils and another trial before Constantine all ruled against Donatus and the Donatism movement in North Africa. In 317, Constantine issued an edict to confiscate Donatist church property and to send Donatist clergy into exile. [ 246 ] More significantly, in 325 he summoned the First Council of Nicaea, most known for its dealing with Arianism and for instituting the Nicene Creed . [ 247 ] He enforced the council's prohibition against celebrating the Lord's Supper on the day before the Jewish Passover , which marked a definite break of Christianity from the Judaic tradition. From then on, the solar Julian calendar was given precedence over the lunisolar Hebrew calendar among the Christian churches of the Roman Empire. [ 248 ] Constantine made some new laws regarding the Jews; some of them were unfavourable towards Jews, although they were not harsher than those of his predecessors. [ 249 ] It was made illegal for Jews to seek converts or to attack other Jews who had converted to Christianity. [ 249 ] They were forbidden to own Christian slaves or to circumcise their slaves. [ 250 ] [ 251 ] On the other hand, Jewish clergy were given the same exemptions as Christian clergy. [ 249 ] [ 252 ] Administrative reforms Beginning in the mid-3rd century, the emperors began to favour members of the equestrian order over senators, who had a monopoly on the most important offices of the state. Senators were stripped of the command of legions and most provincial governorships, as it was felt that they lacked the specialised military upbringing needed in an age of acute defense needs; [ 253 ] such posts were given to equestrians by Diocletian and his colleagues, following a practice enforced piecemeal by their predecessors. The emperors, however, still needed the talents and the help of the very rich, who were relied on to maintain social order and cohesion by means of a web of powerful influence and contacts at all levels. Exclusion of the old senatorial aristocracy threatened this arrangement. In 326 Constantine reversed this pro-equestrian trend, raising many administrative positions to senatorial rank and thus opening these offices to the old aristocracy; at the same time, he elevated the rank of existing equestrian office-holders to senator, degrading the equestrian order in the process (at least as a bureaucratic rank). [ 254 ] The title of perfectissimus was granted only to mid- or low-level officials by the end of the 4th century. By the new Constantinian arrangement, one could become a senator by being elected praetor or by fulfilling a function of senatorial rank. [ 255 ] From then on, holding actual power and social status were melded together into a joint imperial hierarchy. Constantine gained the support of the old nobility with this, [ 256 ] as the Senate was allowed to elect praetors and quaestors in place of the usual practice of the emperors directly creating magistrates ( adlectio ). An inscription in honour of city prefect Ceionius Rufus Albinus states that Constantine had restored the Senate "the auctoritas it had lost at Caesar's time". [ 257 ] The Senate as a body remained devoid of any significant power; nevertheless, the senators had been marginalised as potential holders of imperial functions during the 3rd century but could dispute such positions alongside more upstart bureaucrats. [ 258 ] Some modern historians see in those administrative reforms an attempt by Constantine at reintegrating the senatorial order into the imperial administrative elite to counter the possibility of alienating pagan senators from a Christianised imperial rule; [ 259 ] however, such an interpretation remains conjectural, given the fact that we do not have the precise numbers about pre-Constantine conversions to Christianity in the old senatorial milieu. Some historians suggest that early conversions among the old aristocracy were more numerous than previously supposed. [ 260 ] Constantine's reforms had to do only with the civilian administration. The military chiefs had risen from the ranks since the Crisis of the Third Century [ 261 ] but remained outside the Senate, in which they were included only by Constantine's children. [ 262 ] Monetary reforms In the 3rd century the production of fiat money to pay for public expenses resulted in runaway inflation , and Diocletian tried unsuccessfully to re-establish trustworthy minting of silver coins, as well as silver-bronze " billon " coins (the term "billon" meaning an alloy of precious and base metals that is mostly base metal). Silver currency was overvalued in terms of its actual metal content and therefore could only circulate at much discounted rates. Constantine stopped minting the Diocletianic "pure" silver argenteus soon after 305, while the "billon" currency continued to be used until the 360s. From the early 300s on, Constantine forsook any attempts at restoring the silver currency, preferring instead to concentrate on minting large quantities of the gold solidus , 72 of which made a pound of gold. New and highly debased silver pieces continued to be issued during his later reign and after his death, in a continuous process of retariffing, until this "billon" minting ceased in 367, and the silver piece was continued by various denominations of bronze coins, the most important being the centenionalis . [ 263 ] These bronze pieces continued to be devalued, assuring the possibility of keeping fiduciary minting alongside a gold standard. The author of De Rebus Bellicis held that the rift widened between classes because of this monetary policy; the rich benefited from the stability in purchasing power of the gold piece, while the poor had to cope with ever-degrading bronze pieces. [ 264 ] Later emperors such as Julian the Apostate insisted on trustworthy mintings of the bronze currency. [ 265 ] Constantine's monetary policies were closely associated with his religious policies; increased minting was associated with the confiscation of all gold, silver, and bronze statues from pagan temples between 331 and 336 which were declared to be imperial property. Two imperial commissioners for each province had the task of getting the statues and melting them for immediate minting, with the exception of a number of bronze statues that were used as public monuments in Constantinople. [ 266 ] Executions of Crispus and Fausta Constantine had his eldest son Crispus seized and put to death by "cold poison" at Pola ( Pula , Croatia) sometime between 15 May and 17 June 326. [ 267 ] In July, he had his wife Empress Fausta (stepmother of Crispus) killed in an overheated bath. [ 268 ] Their names were wiped from the face of many inscriptions, references to their lives were eradicated from the literary record, and their memory was condemned. Eusebius, for example, edited out any praise of Crispus from later copies of Historia Ecclesiastica , and his Vita Constantini contains no mention of Fausta or Crispus. [ 269 ] Few ancient sources are willing to discuss possible motives for the events, and the few that do are of later provenance and are generally unreliable. [ 270 ] At the time of the executions it was commonly believed that Empress Fausta was either in an illicit relationship with Crispus or was spreading rumours to that effect. A popular myth arose, modified to allude to the Hippolytus – Phaedra legend, with the suggestion that Constantine killed Crispus and Fausta for their immoralities; [ 271 ] the largely fictional Passion of Artemius explicitly makes this connection. [ 272 ] The myth rests on slim evidence as an interpretation of the executions; only late and unreliable sources allude to the relationship between Crispus and Fausta, and there is no evidence for the modern suggestion that Constantine's "godly" edicts of 326 and the irregularities of Crispus are somehow connected. [ 271 ] Although Constantine created his apparent heirs "caesars", following a pattern established by Diocletian, he gave his creations a hereditary character, alien to the tetrarchic system: Constantine's caesars were to be kept in the hope of ascending to empire and entirely subordinated to their augustus, as long as he was alive. [ 273 ] Adrian Goldsworthy speculates an alternative explanation for the execution of Crispus was Constantine's desire to keep a firm grip on his prospective heirs, this—and Fausta's desire for having her sons inheriting instead of their half-brother—being reason enough for killing Crispus; the subsequent execution of Fausta, however, was probably meant as a reminder to her children that Constantine would not hesitate in "killing his own relatives when he felt this was necessary". [ 274 ] Later campaigns Constantine considered Constantinople his capital and permanent residence. He lived there for a good portion of his later life. In 328, construction was completed on Constantine's Bridge at Sucidava , (today Celei in Romania ) [ 275 ] in hopes of reconquering Dacia , a province that had been abandoned under Aurelian. In the late winter of 332, Constantine campaigned with the Sarmatians against the Goths . The weather and lack of food reportedly cost the Goths dearly before they submitted to Rome. In 334, after Sarmatian commoners had overthrown their leaders, Constantine led a campaign against the tribe. He won a victory in the war and extended his control over the region, as remains of camps and fortifications in the region indicate. [ 276 ] Constantine resettled some Sarmatian exiles as farmers in Illyrian and Roman districts and conscripted the rest into the army. Constantine reconquered the South of Dacia and the new frontier in Dacia was along the wall and ditch called Brazda lui Novac line supported by new castra . [ 277 ] Constantine took the title Dacicus maximus in 336. [ 278 ] In the last years of his life, Constantine made plans for a campaign against Persia . In a letter written to the king of Persia, Shapur , Constantine had asserted his patronage over Persia's Christian subjects and urged Shapur to treat them well. [ 279 ] The letter is undatable. In response to border raids, Constantine sent Constantius to guard the eastern frontier in 335. In 336, Prince Narseh invaded Armenia (a Christian kingdom since 301) and installed a Persian client on the throne. Constantine then resolved to campaign against Persia. He treated the war as a Christian crusade, calling for bishops to accompany the army and commissioning a tent in the shape of a church to follow him everywhere. Constantine planned to be baptised in the Jordan River before crossing into Persia. Persian diplomats came to Constantinople over the winter of 336–337, seeking peace, but Constantine turned them away. The campaign was called off, however, when Constantine became sick in the spring of 337. [ 280 ] Illness and death From his recent illness, Constantine knew death would soon come. Within the Church of the Holy Apostles , which he had built in Constantinople, Constantine had secretly prepared a final resting-place for himself. [ 281 ] It came sooner than he had expected. Soon after the Feast of Easter 337, Constantine fell seriously ill. [ 282 ] He left Constantinople for the hot baths near his mother's city of Helenopolis ( Altınova ), on the southern shores of the Gulf of Nicomedia (present-day Gulf of İzmit ). Once in Helenopolis, in a church he had built in honour of Lucian the Martyr , he began to pray and offer supplications for God. He soon felt that his life was ending and desired to seek purification of the sins he had committed through baptism. Making his way to the suburbs of Nicomedia, where he summoned the local bishops. [ 283 ] He then told them of his hope to be baptised in the Jordan River , where Christ was baptised, yet praises God, knowing that it is fitting for him to receive the blessing here instead. He then professed the desire to live the rest of his life united with the people of God and His Church. The bishops, Eusebius records, "the prelates performed the sacred ceremonies in the usual manner". [ 284 ] He chose the Arian bishop Eusebius of Nicomedia , bishop of the city where he lay dying, as his baptiser. [ 285 ] It has been thought that Constantine put off baptism as long as he did to be absolved from as much of his sin as possible. [ 286 ] Constantine died soon after at a suburban villa called Achyron, on the last day of the fifty-day festival of Pentecost directly following Pascha (or Easter ), on 22 May 337. [ 287 ] Although Constantine's death follows the conclusion of the Persian campaign in Eusebius's account, most other sources report his death as occurring in its middle. Emperor Julian (a nephew of Constantine), writing in the mid-350s, observes that the Sassanians escaped punishment for their ill-deeds, because Constantine died "in the middle of his preparations for war". [ 288 ] Similar accounts are given in the Origo Constantini , an anonymous document composed while Constantine was still living, which has Constantine dying in Nicomedia ; [ 289 ] the Historiae abbreviatae of Sextus Aurelius Victor , written in 361, which has Constantine dying at an estate near Nicomedia called Achyrona while marching against the Persians; [ 290 ] and the Breviarium of Eutropius , a handbook compiled in 369 for the Emperor Valens , which has Constantine dying in a nameless state villa in Nicomedia . [ 291 ] From these and other accounts, some have concluded that Eusebius's Vita was edited to defend Constantine's reputation against what Eusebius saw as a less congenial version of the campaign. [ 292 ] Following his death, his body was transferred to Constantinople and buried in the Church of the Holy Apostles, [ 293 ] in a porphyry sarcophagus that was described in the 10th century by Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus in the De Ceremoniis . [ 294 ] His body survived the plundering of the city during the Fourth Crusade in 1204 but was destroyed at some point afterwards. [ 295 ] A fragment of a sarcophagus that is believed to be Constantine's is currently on display at the Istanbul Archaeology Museums . Constantine was succeeded by his three sons born of Fausta, Constantine II, Constantius II and Constans . His sons, along with his nephew Dalmatius , had already received one division of the empire each to administer as caesars; Constantine may have intended his successors to resume a structure akin to Diocletian's Tetrarchy. [ 296 ] A number of relatives were killed by followers of Constantius, notably Constantine's nephews Dalmatius (who held the rank of caesar) and Hannibalianus , presumably to eliminate possible contenders to an already complicated succession. He also had two daughters, Constantina and Helena , wife of Emperor Julian. [ 297 ] Assessment and legacy Constantine reunited the empire under one emperor, and he won major victories over the Franks and Alamanni in 306–308, the Franks again in 313–314, the Goths in 332, and the Sarmatians in 334. By 336, he had reoccupied most of the long-lost province of Dacia which Aurelian had been forced to abandon in 271. At the time of his death, he was planning a great expedition to end raids on the eastern provinces from the Persian Empire. [ 298 ] In the cultural sphere, Constantine revived the clean-shaven face fashion of earlier emperors, originally introduced among the Romans by Scipio Africanus (236–183 BC) and changed into the wearing of the beard by Hadrian (r. 117–138). With some departures, such as Julian the Apostate (r. 360–363), this new Roman imperial fashion lasted until the reign of Phocas (r. 602–610) in the 7th century. [ 299 ] [ 300 ] [ better source needed ] The Holy Roman Empire reckoned Constantine among the venerable figures of its tradition. In the later Byzantine state, it became a great honour for an emperor to be hailed as a "new Constantine"; ten emperors carried the name, including the last emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire. [ 301 ] Charlemagne used monumental Constantinian forms in his court to suggest that he was Constantine's successor and equal. Charlemagne, Henry VIII , Philip II of Spain , Godfrey of Bouillon , the House of Capet , the House of Habsburg , the House of Stuart , the Macedonian dynasty and the Phokas family claimed descent from Constantine. [ 302 ] [ 303 ] [ 304 ] Geoffrey of Monmouth embroidered a tale that the legendary king of Britain, King Arthur , was also a descendant of Constantine. [ 305 ] Constantine acquired a mythic role as a hero and warrior against heathens. His reception as a saint seems to have spread within the Byzantine empire during wars against the Sasanian Persians and the Muslims in the late 6th and 7th century. [ 306 ] The motif of the Romanesque equestrian, the mounted figure in the posture of a triumphant Roman emperor, became a visual metaphor in statuary in praise of local benefactors. The name "Constantine" enjoyed renewed popularity in western France in the 11th and 12th centuries. [ 307 ] During the Fascist period in Italy in the 20th century , parallels between Constantine and Mussolini became especially popular after the signing of the Lateran Pacts by the Italian State and the Catholic Church in 1929. Mussolini's perceived role in bringing about the historic agreement was sometimes even explicitly compared to Constantine's Edict of Milan. For example, the archbishop of Milan, Cardinal Ildefonso Schuster , claimed that, after sixteen centuries, a second March on Rome had occurred and a second 'religious pact' had been established, linking Mussolini to the spiriti magni of both Constantine and Augustus . [ 308 ] The Niš Constantine the Great Airport is named in honour of him. A large cross was planned to be built on a hill overlooking Niš, but the project was cancelled. [ 309 ] In 2012, a memorial was erected in Niš in his honour. The Commemoration of the Edict of Milan was held in Niš in 2013. [ 310 ] Constantine is sometimes associated with the religiopolitical ideology known as Caesaropapism , which epitomises the unity of church and state. However, his association with this ideology has been debated. [ 311 ] Veneration as a saint Constantine is commemorated annually as a saint by most, if not all, Eastern Christian Churches . The Eastern Orthodox Churches and the Greek Catholic Churches venerate Saint Constantine (Άγιος Κωνσταντίνος) as isapostolos (ισαπόστολος Κωνσταντίνος)—an equal of the Apostles . [ 312 ] He and his mother, Saint Helena, are commemorated on 21 May, [ 313 ] with liturgical propers composed for the Horologion (e.g., Great Vespers ) [ 314 ] and Divine Liturgy . [ 315 ] Several Orthodox monasteries, shrines and churches claim to have first-class relics of Constantine. [ 316 ] The Coptic Orthodox Church commemorates Saint Constantine on 28 Parmouti . [ 317 ] The Armenian Apostolic Church commemorates Saint Constantine and Saint Helena on the Tuesday of the fourth week after Pentecost. [ 318 ] The Armenian Catholic Church commemorates both on 1 July. Constantine is not recognized officially as a saint in the Roman Rite of the Catholic Church , although he had been referred to as piissimi Imperatoris (most pious Emperor) in editions of the Martyrologium Romanum up until the 1956 edition. Historiography During Constantine's lifetime, Praxagoras of Athens and Libanius , pagan authors, showered Constantine with praise, presenting him as a paragon of virtue. His nephew and son-in-law Julian the Apostate, however, wrote the satire Symposium, or the Saturnalia in 361, after the last of his sons died; it denigrated Constantine, calling him inferior to the great pagan emperors, and given over to luxury and greed. [ 319 ] Following Julian, Eunapius began – and Zosimus continued – a historiographic tradition that blamed Constantine for weakening the empire through his indulgence to the Christians. [ 320 ] During the Middle Ages , European and Near-East Byzantine writers presented Constantine as an ideal ruler, the standard against which any king or emperor could be measured. [ 320 ] The Renaissance rediscovery of anti-Constantinian sources prompted a re-evaluation of his career. German humanist Johannes Leunclavius discovered Zosimus' writings and published a Latin translation in 1576. In its preface, he argues that Zosimus' picture of Constantine offered a more balanced view than that of Eusebius and the Church historians. [ 321 ] Cardinal Caesar Baronius criticised Zosimus, favouring Eusebius' account of the Constantinian era. Baronius' Life of Constantine (1588) presents Constantine as the model of a Christian prince. [ 322 ] Edward Gibbon aimed to unite the two extremes of Constantinian scholarship in his work The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (1776–1789) by contrasting the portraits presented by Eusebius and Zosimus. [ 323 ] He presents a noble war hero who transforms into an Oriental despot in his old age, "degenerating into a cruel and dissolute monarch". [ 324 ] Modern interpretations of Constantine's rule begin with Jacob Burckhardt 's The Age of Constantine the Great (1853, rev. 1880). Burckhardt's Constantine is a scheming secularist, a politician who manipulates all parties in a quest to secure his own power. [ 325 ] Henri Grégoire followed Burckhardt's evaluation of Constantine in the 1930s, suggesting that Constantine developed an interest in Christianity only after witnessing its political usefulness. Grégoire was skeptical of the authenticity of Eusebius's Vita , and postulated a pseudo-Eusebius to assume responsibility for the vision and conversion narratives of that work. [ 326 ] Otto Seeck 's Geschichte des Untergangs der antiken Welt (1920–1923) and André Piganiol 's L'empereur Constantin (1932) go against this historiographic tradition. Seeck presents Constantine as a sincere war hero whose ambiguities were the product of his own naïve inconsistency. [ 327 ] Piganiol's Constantine is a philosophical monotheist, a child of his era's religious syncretism. [ 328 ] Related histories by Arnold Hugh Martin Jones ( Constantine and the Conversion of Europe , 1949) and Ramsay MacMullen ( Constantine , 1969) give portraits of a less visionary and more impulsive Constantine. [ 329 ] These later accounts were more willing to present Constantine as a genuine convert to Christianity. Norman H. Baynes began a historiographic tradition with Constantine the Great and the Christian Church (1929) which presents Constantine as a committed Christian, reinforced by Andreas Alföldi 's The Conversion of Constantine and Pagan Rome (1948), and Timothy Barnes 's Constantine and Eusebius (1981) is the culmination of this trend. Barnes' Constantine experienced a radical conversion which drove him on a personal crusade to convert his empire. [ 330 ] Charles Matson Odahl's Constantine and the Christian Empire (2004) takes much the same tack. [ 331 ] In spite of Barnes' work, arguments continue over the strength and depth of Constantine's religious conversion. [ 332 ] Certain themes in this school reached new extremes in T. G. Elliott's The Christianity of Constantine the Great (1996), which presented Constantine as a committed Christian from early childhood. [ 333 ] Paul Veyne 's 2007 work Quand notre monde est devenu chrétien holds a similar view which does not speculate on the origin of Constantine's Christian motivation, but presents him as a religious revolutionary who fervently believed that he was meant "to play a providential role in the millenary economy of the salvation of humanity". [ 334 ] Peter Heather argues that it is most plausible that Constantine had been a Christian considerably before 312 – possibly even for his entire life – with the public timeline of events instead reflecting his "coming out" as Christian in stages as doing so became politically viable. As a parallel illustrating the cogency of this interpretation, Heather gestures to the later conversion of Constantine's nephew Julian from Christianity to Hellenism, after which he practiced in secret for a decade. [ 335 ] Donation of Constantine Latin Christians considered it inappropriate that Constantine was baptised only on his death bed by an unorthodox bishop, and a legend emerged by the early 4th century that Pope Sylvester I had cured the pagan emperor from leprosy. According to this legend, Constantine was baptised and began the construction of a church in the Lateran Basilica . [ 336 ] [ 337 ] The Donation of Constantine appeared in the 8th century, most likely during the pontificate of Pope Stephen II , in which the freshly converted Constantine gives "the city of Rome and all the provinces, districts, and cities of Italy and the Western regions" to Sylvester and his successors. [ 338 ] In the High Middle Ages , [ 339 ] [ 340 ] this document was used and accepted as the basis for the pope's temporal power , though it was denounced as a forgery by Emperor Otto III [ 341 ] and lamented as the root of papal worldliness by Dante Alighieri . [ 342 ] Philologist and Catholic priest Lorenzo Valla proved in 1440 that the document was indeed a forgery. [ 343 ] Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia During the medieval period, Britons regarded Constantine as a king of their own people, particularly associating him with Caernarfon in Gwynedd . While some of this is owed to his fame and his proclamation as emperor in Britain , there was also confusion of his family with Magnus Maximus 's supposed wife Elen and her son, another Constantine ( Welsh : Custennin ) . In the 12th century Henry of Huntingdon included a passage in his Historia Anglorum that the Emperor Constantine's mother was a Briton, making her the daughter of King Cole of Colchester . [ 344 ] Geoffrey of Monmouth expanded this story in his highly fictionalised Historia Regum Britanniae , an account of the supposed Kings of Britain from their Trojan origins to the Anglo-Saxon invasion . [ 345 ] According to Geoffrey, Cole was King of the Britons when Constantius, here a senator, came to Britain. Afraid of the Romans, Cole submits to Roman law so long as he retains his kingship. However, he dies only a month later, and Constantius takes the throne himself, marrying Cole's daughter Helena. They have their son Constantine, who succeeds his father as King of Britain before becoming Roman emperor. Historically, this series of events is extremely improbable. Constantius had already left Helena by the time he left for Britain. [ 45 ] Additionally, no earlier source mentions that Helena was born in Britain, let alone that she was a princess. Henry's source for the story is unknown, though it may have been a lost hagiography of Helena.

[ 3 ] ^ Constantine's age at the time of his death was 65 years and 3 months, as recorded by Eustathius . Socrates , Sozomen , Zonaras , Skoutariotes , Theophanes , Symeon and Kedrenos all record 65 years. Eutropius and Jerome ( c. 380) give 66 years, as Latin writers often used inclusive counting . Aurelius Victor gives 62, likely a corruption of .mw-parser-output span.smallcaps{font-variant:small-caps}.mw-parser-output span.smallcaps-smaller{font-size:85%} lxvi into lxii , and his epitomer further corrupts the number into 63 ( lxiii ), while also computing his regnal years wrong. [ 19 ] [ 20 ] ^ The claim that Constantius descended from Claudius Gothicus , and thus also from the Flavian dynasty , is most certainly a fabrication. [ 23 ] [ 24 ] His family probably adopted the name "Flavius" after being granted citizenship by one of the Flavian emperors, as it was common for "new Romans" to adopt the names of their benefactors. [ 25 ] ^ On the other hand, Timothy Barnes argues that when ancient writers used the words Illyricum and Thrace / Thracians to describe where Constantius came from, they were speaking of broad geographic terms rather than precise origins. [ 28 ] ^ Constantius' regnal name is attested as both "Gaius Flavius Constantius" and "Marcus Flavius Constantius". However, the latter is almost certainly the correct form, as it was also the praenomen of his adopted father Maximian. [ 32 ] ^ The event is the focus of the Panegyrici Latini VI. The exact chronology of events is uncertain. Constantine and Fausta's wedding is sometimes dated to 31 March, but this is probably a mistake. It probably took place in September 307.

Palgrave Macmillan Cham, 2022; pp. 2–3: "In a sense, this book is dedicated to the " Illyrian Emperors ", i.e. those emperors who were born in the Western Balkans and saved, stabilised, and reformed the empire. This line begins with Claudius II (268— 270) and then moves on to Quintillus (270), Aurelian (270—275), and Probus (276—282).3 After a brief interruption by the reigns of Carus and his two sons (282—284), whose birthplace we do not know, the Illyr-ians continued their run with Diocletian (284—305) and three of his colleagues: Maximian (285—305), Constantius (293—306), and Galerius (293—311). A 4th-century historian said of them: "Illyricum was actually the native land of all of them: so although they were deficient in culture, they had nevertheless been sufficiently schooled by the hardships of the countryside and of military service to be the best men for the state". 4 This is not the end of the Illyrian Emperors: Severus (305—307), Maximinus Daia (305—313), Licinius (308—324), and Constantine himself (306—337) can also be counted among them." ^ Odahl 2001 , pp. 36-41 . ^ Barnes 2011 , p. 30 . ^ Tougher, Shaun (2007).

Hiersemann, 2005), column 442, there is no evidence for the tradition that Constantine officially dubbed the city "New Rome" ( Nova Roma or Nea Rhome ). Commemorative coins that were issued during the 330s already refer to the city as Constantinopolis (Michael Grant, The Climax of Rome (London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1968), 133). It is possible that the emperor called the city "Second Rome" ( Deutera Rhome ) by official decree, as reported by the 5th-century church historian Socrates of Constantinople. ^ Bowder, Diana (1987).

( September 2022 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this message ) The tree of knowledge ( ToK ) system is a new [ when? ] map of Big History that traces cosmic evolution across four different planes of existence, identified as Matter, Life, Mind and Culture that are mapped respectively by the physical, biological, psychological and social domains of science. The Tree of Knowledge (ToK) System was developed by Gregg Henriques , who is a professor and core faculty member in the Combined-Integrated Doctoral Program in Clinical and School Psychology at James Madison University . [ 1 ] The ToK System is part of a larger Unified Theory of Knowledge that Henriques describes as a consilient scientific humanistic philosophy for the 21st Century. The official Unified Theory of Knowledge website describes the ToK System as: [ 2 ] [A] theory of scientific knowledge that defines the human knower in relation to the known. It achieves this novel accomplishment by solving the problem of psychology and giving rise to a truly consilient view of the scientific landscape. It accomplishes this via dividing the evolution of behavioral complexity into four different planes of existence...The ToK also characterizes modern empirical natural science as a kind of justification system that functions to map complexity and change. [A] theory of scientific knowledge that defines the human knower in relation to the known. It achieves this novel accomplishment by solving the problem of psychology and giving rise to a truly consilient view of the scientific landscape. It accomplishes this via dividing the evolution of behavioral complexity into four different planes of existence...The ToK also characterizes modern empirical natural science as a kind of justification system that functions to map complexity and change. The outline of the ToK System was first published in 2003 in Review of General Psychology . [ 3 ] Two special issues of the Journal of Clinical Psychology in December 2004 [ 4 ] and January 2005 [ 5 ] were devoted to the elaboration and evaluation of the model. In 2008, a special issue of Theory & Psychology [ 6 ] was devoted to the ToK System. In 2011, Henriques published A New Unified Theory of Psychology . That same year he also launched the blog Theory of Knowledge: A Unified Approach to Psychology and Philosophy on Psychology Today , which remains active. There is also a Theory Of Knowledge Society and discussion listserve that is devoted to discussing Henriques' work and other big picture viewpoints. In some ways, the ToK System reflects a fairly common hierarchy of nature and of the sciences that has been represented in one way or another since the time of Auguste Comte , who in the 19th century used a hierarchical conception of nature to argue for the existence of sociology. It also has clear parallels with Aristotle's conception of the scales of nature and the first four levels of the Great Chain of Being . Despite some overlap with a number of traditional schemes, the ToK System is properly thought of as a new theory of both ontic reality and our scientific knowledge of that reality. One of the most important and salient features of the Tree of Knowledge is how it represents reality as consisting of four different planes of existence. The theory is that, following Matter, Life, Mind and Culture each represent complex adaptive landscapes that are organized and mediated by novel emergent information processing and communication systems. Specifically, DNA/RNA store information that is processed by cells which then engage in intercellular communication to create the plane of existence called Life. Similarly, the brain and nervous system store and process information in animals which then engage in communication networks on the complex adaptive plane called Mind. Finally, linguistic storage and processing and communication between human beings generates the emergence of the Culture-Person plane of existence. The separable planes of existence or dimension of complexity argument is one of the most crucial aspects of the system. Many have argued nature is hierarchically leveled; for example, a list of such levels might be subatomic particles , atoms , molecules , cells , organ structures, multi-celled organisms, consciousness , and society is common. The ToK System embraces a view of nature as levels, but adds the notion that there are also separable dimensions of complexity . The difference becomes particularly clear in the extension of the ToK System into the Periodic Table of Behavior . The Periodic Table of Behavior (PTB) shows that natural science can be arranged in terms of the four fundamental dimensions (i.e., matter, life, mind, and culture) and three fundamental levels of analysis (i.e., part, whole, group). The PTB also demonstrates that behavior is a central concept in science. Epistemologically, natural scientists view the world via a third person behavioral lens. Ontologically, science is about mapping different kinds of behaviors that take place in nature at various levels and dimensions of analysis. The second central insight of the ToK System is that it shows how natural science is a particular kind of justification system that emerges out of Culture based on novel methods and specific epistemological commitments and assumptions (i.e., an exterior view point, quantification and experimentation). This epistemology and methodology functions to justify scientific ontology, which in turn maps the ontic reality. Specifically, the domains of the physical, biological, (basic) psychological and social sciences map the ontic dimensions of matter, life, mind and culture. The Periodic Table of Behavior further shows how science is a justification system that is arranged to map behavioral frequencies at different dimensions of complexity and levels of analysis.

( April 2024 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this message ) Matter/Object — Physical sciences The dimension of matter refers to the set of material objects and their behaviors through time. In accordance with modern cosmology , matter is theorized to have emerged from a pure energy singularity at the Big Bang . Space and time were also born at such a point. Nonliving material objects range in complexity from subatomic particles to large organic molecules. The physical sciences (i.e., physics , chemistry , geology, astronomy ) describe the behavior of material objects. [ 3 ] Life/Organism — Biological sciences The dimension of life refers to organisms and their behaviors through time. Living objects are considered a unique subset of material objects. Just as quantum particles form the fundamental units of material complexity, genes are the fundamental units of living information. Although many questions about the emergence of life remain unanswered, in accordance with modern biology, the ToK posits that natural selection operating on genetic combinations through time is the unified theory of biology and forms the foundational understanding for the emergence of organic complexity. [ 3 ] Mind/Animal — (Basic) psychological sciences Mind/cognition in the ToK system refers to the set of mental behaviors. Mental behaviors are behaviors of animals mediated by the nervous system that produce a functional effect on the animal-environment relationship. As such, Mind/cognition is essentially synonymous with what behavioral psychologists have meant when they use the term behavior. Thus, a fly avoiding a fly swatter, a rat pushing a bar or a human getting a drink of water are all mental behaviors. Mind is not synonymous with sentience or the capacity for mental experience, although such processes are presumed to emerge in the mental/cognitive dimension. Cognition , in the broad sense of the term is meaning bodily-neuro-social information processing, as in EEEE Cognition: Embodied, Embedded, Enactive, Extended. While cognitive science stands for naturalist study of mind, psychology is an approach grounded in the tradition of humanities, especially philosophy. Thus, by defining mind as mental behavior, Henriques argues that the ToK System provides a way to bridge the epistemological differences between cognitive and behavioral science . [ 3 ] Henriques argues that comparative psychology , ethology, and (animal) cognitive behavioral neuroscience should all be thought of as parts of the discipline that maps the animal-mental domain. Culture/Person — Human social sciences Culture in the ToK system refers to the set of sociolinguistic behaviors, which range from large scale nation states to individual human justifications for particular actions. Just as genetic information processing is associated with the Life dimension and neuronal information processing associated with the Mind dimension, symbolic information processing emerges with the Cultural dimension. [ 3 ] Henriques argues that human cognitive science, human psychology and the social sciences (i.e., anthropology, sociology, political science, and economics) work to map this domain. Theoretical joint points Quantum gravity Quantum gravity refers to the imagined merger between the twin pillars of physical science which are quantum mechanics , the study of the microscopic (e.g., electrons), and general relativity , the science of the macroscopic (e.g., galaxies ). Currently, these two great domains of science cannot be effectively interwoven into a single, physical Theory of Everything , yet progress is being made, most notably through string theory , loop quantum gravity , black hole thermodynamics and the study of the early universe. Some of the difficulties combining these two pillars of physical science are philosophical in nature and it is possible that the macro view of knowledge offered by the ToK may eventually aid in the construction of a coherent theory of quantum gravity. The reason the ToK might help is that it locates scientific knowledge in relationship to the physical universe. The modern synthesis The modern synthesis refers to the merger of genetics with natural selection which occurred in the 1930s and 1940s and offers a reasonably complete framework for understanding the emergence of biological complexity. Although there remain significant gaps in biological knowledge surrounding questions such as the origin of life and the emergence of sexual reproduction, the modern synthesis represents the most complete and well-substantiated joint point. Behavioral investment theory Behavioral investment theory (BIT) is a metatheoretical formulation for the mind, brain and animal behavioral sciences. Henriques proposes that it enables the merger of the selection science of behaviorism with the information science of cognitive neuroscience that has conceptual parallels with the modern synthesis. BIT posits that the nervous system evolved as an increasingly flexible computational control system that coordinates the behavioral expenditure of energy of the animal as a whole. Expenditure of behavioral energy is theorized to be computed on an investment value system built evolutionarily through natural selection operating on genetic combinations and ontogenetically through behavioral selection operating on neural combinations. As such, the current behavioral investments of the animal are conceptualized as the joint product of the two vectors of phylogeny and ontogeny . A unique element of BIT is that it finds a core of agreement and builds bridges between five brain-behavior paradigms: (1) cognitive science ; (2) behavioral science ; (3) evolutionary theory and genetics; (4) neuroscience; and (5) cybernetics / systems theory . David C. Geary noted the similarities between his "motive-to-control" hypothesis and Henriques' Behavioral Investment Theory, which were developed independently of each other. Furthermore, Geary suggested that his model "seem[ed] to fill in many of the proximate mechanisms and evolutionary pressures that define the life-mind joint point, and provided a framework for further development of the mind-culture joint point." [ 7 ] Justification systems theory The justification systems theory (JUST; formerly known as the justification hypothesis) posits that the evolution of language reached a tipping point with emergence of propositional claims. Specifically, propositional claims can be questioned, which generates the "question-answer" dynamic. This creates the problem of justification, which Henriques argues drives both the design of the human self-consciousness system as a mental organ of justification and gives rise to the evolution of the Culture-Person plane of existence. JUST is a novel proposal that allows for both the understanding of the evolution of culture and for identifying what makes humans distinct animals. A basic initial claim of JUST is that the process of justification is a crucial component of human mental behavior at both the individual and societal level. Unlike all other animals, humans everywhere ask for and give explanations for their actions. Arguments, debates, moral dictates, rationalizations, and excuses all involve the process of explaining why one's claims, thoughts or actions are warranted. In virtually every form of social exchange, from warfare to politics to family struggles to science, humans are constantly justifying their behavioral investments to themselves and others. JUST consists of three key postulates: The first is that the evolution of propositional language must have created the problem of justification, which involves three interlocking problems of deciphering what is (1) analytically true and what is (2) good for the group and (3) good for the individual. The second postulate is that the structure and functional design of human consciousness can be understood as a solution to the problem of justification. Specifically, the three domains of human consciousness that Henriques identifies in the Updated Tripartite Model of the (1) experiential; (2) private narrator; and (3) public narrator are directly consistent with adaptive pressures that arise from the logic of the problem of justification. This analysis deepens when one considers the dynamic relationships and filtering that takes place between these three domains. The third postulate is that culture can be understood as large scale justification systems that coordinate the behavior of human populations. Cultural systems are seen to evolve much in the same way as organisms do in biological evolution: there is a process of variation, selection and retention of belief systems. The "problem of psychology" The ToK System emerged as a consequence of Henriques wrestling with what he calls "the problem of psychology". Henriques argues that the most difficult problem in psychology as a discipline is that while there is incredible diversity offered by different approaches to psychology, and there is no consensus model of what psychology actually is. [ 8 ] [ 9 ] Specifically, Henriques argues that the field lacks a clear definition, an agreed upon subject matter, and a coherent conceptual framework . The problem has been long standing, identified as the "crisis" by Lev Vygotsky in the mid 1920s. Henriques further argues that the patent tendency of psychology has been toward theoretical and substantial fragmentation and increasing insularity among the "specialties." In other words, the discipline has fragmented into different schools of thought and methodology, with no overall framework to interpret and integrate the research of different areas. At its best, the different approaches are a strength of psychology; different approaches lead to novel ideas, and prevent psychologists from clinging to a paradigm that fails to explain a phenomenon. At its worst, adherents of one particular school cling to their beliefs concerning the relative importance of their research and disregard or are ignorant of different approaches. In most cases, individual psychologists have to determine for themselves which elements of which perspective to apply, and how to integrate them into their overall understanding. Henriques argues that the problem of psychology is a central feature of modern knowledge systems. In A New Unified Theory of Psychology , he described it as follows: The problem of psychology is the joint observation that the field cannot be coherently defined and yet it connects more deeply than any other discipline to the three great branches of learning. Taken together, these observations suggest that the problem of psychology is a profound problem in academia at large. This conclusion is bolstered by the fact that as psychology has lumbered along acquiring findings but not foundational clarity, the fragmentation of human knowledge has grown exponentially. All of this suggests that the question, "What is psychology?" is profoundly important, one of the central questions in all of philosophy. Asking the right questions is often the most important step in getting the right answer. My interest in psychotherapy integration ultimately led me to ask the question, "What is psychology?”. Although I had no idea at the time, it turns out that this is the right question. And, as startling as it sounds, because psychology connects to so many different domains, the correct answer to it opens up a whole new vision for integrating human knowledge.

And, as startling as it sounds, because psychology connects to so many different domains, the correct answer to it opens up a whole new vision for integrating human knowledge. The reason for psychology's fragmentation, according to the ToK System, is that there has been no meta-theoretical frame that allows scholars to agree on the basic questions that need to be addressed. As such, the different schools of thought in psychology are like the blind men who each grab a part of the elephant and proclaim they have discovered its true nature. With its novel depiction of evolving dimensions of complexity, the ToK allows scholars finally to see the elephant. In his 2003 Review of General Psychology paper, [ 8 ] Henriques used the ToK System with the attempt to clarify and align the views of B.F. Skinner and Sigmund Freud . These luminaries were chosen because when one considers their influence and historical opposition, it can readily be argued that they represent two schools of thought that are the most difficult to integrate. Henriques used the meta-perspective offered by the ToK to argue how one can retain the key insights from each school of thought, identify errors and points of confusion, and integrate the insights into a coherent whole. Cultural and personality psychologist, Michael Katzko, [ 10 ] however critiques Henriques' position on "the problem of psychology": There is a very good reason for skepticism regarding the repeated claims that the one unique problem of psychology, applicable across the entire discipline, has been identified and that the ToK System solves it. The reason is given by the detail with which alternatives have been worked out, be they historical studies of institutional development or critical commentaries on the rhetorical structure of psychology's literature. [ 11 ] There is a very good reason for skepticism regarding the repeated claims that the one unique problem of psychology, applicable across the entire discipline, has been identified and that the ToK System solves it. The reason is given by the detail with which alternatives have been worked out, be they historical studies of institutional development or critical commentaries on the rhetorical structure of psychology's literature. [ 11 ] Solution The problem of psychology, according to the ToK, is its conceptual incoherence, which Henriques identifies by the following: When the various conceptions of psychology (e.g., behavioral, humanistic, cognitive) are viewed through the lens of the ToK System, psychology spans two different dimensions of complexity: the mental and the cultural. In other words, the discipline has historically spanned two fundamentally separate problems: If, as previously thought, nature simply consisted of levels of complexity, psychology would not be crisply defined in relationship to biology or the social sciences. And, indeed, it is frequently suggested that psychology exists in an amorphous space between biology and the social sciences. However, with its dimension of complexity depiction, the ToK System suggests that psychology can be crisply defined as the science of mind, which is the third dimension of complexity. Furthermore, because human behavior exists in the fourth dimension, psychology must be divided into two broad scientific domains of Psychological formalism is defined as the science of mind and corresponds to the behavior of animal objects. Human psychology is considered to be a unique subset of psychological formalism that deals with human behavior at the level of the individual. Because human behavior is immersed in the larger socio-cultural context (level four in the ToK System), human psychology is considered a hybrid discipline that merges the pure science of psychology with the social sciences. It is important to point out that there are other disciplines the ToK System would classify as “hybrids.” Molecular genetics, for example, is a hybrid between chemistry and biology and neuroscience is a hybrid between biology and psychology. As with Henriques' proposed conception of human psychology, both of these disciplines adopt an object level perspective (molecular and cellular, respectively) on phenomena that simultaneously exist as part of meta-level system processes (life and mind, respectively). [ 9 ] Though David A. F. Haaga "congratulate[d] Dr. Henriques' ambitious, scholarly, provocative paper", and "found the Tree of Knowledge taxonomy, the theoretical joint points, the evolutionary history, and the levels of emergent properties highly illuminating", he asks the rhetorical questions, If it is so difficult to define terms such as 'psychology' with such precision, why bother? Why not just agree that we all have at least a rough idea of what psychology is, and take the rest of the afternoon off? After all, if theoretical or empirical work improves our understanding of some aspect of the world or our fellow people, or improves our ability to help people enhance their physical or emotional well being, what difference does it make whether this work is considered a part of psychology, of cognitive science, of behavioral neuroscience, of public health, or what have you? This raises the question of what definitions in general are good for. [ 12 ] If it is so difficult to define terms such as 'psychology' with such precision, why bother?

This raises the question of what definitions in general are good for. [ 12 ] In a similar vein, Scott O. Lilienfeld, who described Henriques' effort as "thoughtful", contended that psychology is "an inherently fuzzy concept that resists precise definition" and that "attempts to define psychology [would be] likely to hamper rather than foster consilience across disciplines". Lilienfield went on further to suggest that the scientist-practitioner gap in psychology lies not in definitional issues, but in different "epistemic attitudes" between these two groups. He stated that scientists have an epistemic attitude of empiricism , (where questions regarding human nature are settled by scientific evidence), and that practitioners have an epistemic attitude of romanticism , (where questions of human nature are settled by intuition). Lilienfeld suggested that the solution to the scientist-practitioner gulf isn't definitional, but in "train[ing] future clinical scientists to appreciate the proper places of romanticism and empiricism within science". [ 13 ] Consciousness and human behavior A frequent question and point of confusion in the ToK System is the definition and meaning of consciousness . As mentioned above, mind is not synonymous with consciousness. And, to understand consciousness from a ToK vantage point, it is crucial to recognize that the term is often ambiguous in its meaning. Two primary meanings are sentience , which is the capacity for mental experience and self-awareness , which is the capacity to be aware of one's awareness. Sentience is conceptualized as a "level 3" phenomenon, possessed by many animals other than humans and is defined as a "perceived" electro-neuro-chemical representation of animal-environment relations. The ingredient of neurological behavior that allows for the emergence of mental experience is considered the "hard" problem of consciousness and the ToK System does not address this question explicitly. In contrast, through the Justification Hypothesis (see below), the ToK System involves a very direct analysis of the other issue of consciousness, that of self-awareness . Another frequent question that is raised is "Where does individual human behavior fall on the ToK?" To analyze human behavior from the context of the ToK, one uses the ToK like a prism to separate the dimensions of behavior into physiochemical, biogenetic, neuropsychological and sociolinguistic. Thus if we imagine a conversation between a husband and wife as follows: Wife: “You are late again.” Husband: “Please, not now. It was a stressful day, traffic was bad, and you know that if work needs to be done, I can’t just leave it.” Wife: “You are late again.” Husband: “Please, not now. It was a stressful day, traffic was bad, and you know that if work needs to be done, I can’t just leave it.” The words represent the sociolinguistic dimension and are understood as a function of justification. Justification systems are seen both at the level of individual, micro-social and societal (i.e., the context of justification in which men work and women stay at home). The actions of the husband and wife in terms of facial expression , body movement, etc. are seen as the mental dimension and are understood as a function of behavioral investment. The physiological make up of the organ systems and cells of each body is seen as the biogenetic dimension. Finally, the position, temperature, molecular make up is seen as the physiochemical dimension. Each of the more basic dimensions represent conditions of possibility that allow for the emergence of the higher dimension of process. Thus, insufficient oxygen disrupts organic processes which in turn renders neuropsychological and sociolinguistic processes impossible. Toward the integration of human knowledge As stated above, the ToK System proposes a new epistemology with the goal of moving academic knowledge toward what E.O. Wilson termed consilience . Consilience is the interlocking of fact and theory into a coherent, holistic view of knowledge. Henriques argues that the ToK affords new perspectives on how knowledge is obtained because it depicts how science emerges from culture and that the four dimensions of complexity correspond to four broad classes of science: the physical, biological, psychological and social sciences. Henriques further argues that developing such a system for integrating knowledge is not just an academic enterprise. He suggests that in an increasingly complex world, the fragmented state of knowledge can be seen as one of the most pressing social problems of our time. Henriques also believes that history seems to attest that the absence of a collective worldview ostensibly condemns humanity to an endless series of conflicts that inevitably stem from incompatible, partially correct, locally situated justification systems. Thus, from Henriques' perspective, there are good reasons for believing that if there was a shared, general background of explanation, humanity might be able to achieve much greater levels of harmonious relations. In a 2008 article on the ToK, [ 14 ] Henriques cites Oliver Reiser 's 1958 call for unifying scientific knowledge that Henriques implies is similar in theme to the ToK: With its depiction of the dimensions of complexity and interlocking theoretical joint points, Henriques' believes that his ToK System offers new avenues that might allow scholars to meet Reiser’s call for academic synthesis. Henriques, like Reiser, believes that with a shared sense of purpose and a common background of explanation, people might yet be able to integrate bodies of knowledge into a unified interpretation of humanity, with humanity's place in nature and its potentialities for creating the good society.

Thirty-six student participants from Architectural Engineering and other disciplines completed a two-phase architectural design task, first independently and then with external tools (GenAI-assisted condition and control condition using an online repository of existing architectural projects). Design outcomes were evaluated by expert raters, while self-efficacy and cognitive load were self-reported after each phase. Difference-in-differences analyses revealed no overall performance advantage of GenAI across participants; however, subgroup analyses showed that GenAI significantly improved design performance for novice designers. In contrast, general creative self-efficacy declined for students using GenAI. Cognitive load did not differ significantly between conditions, though prompt usage patterns showed that iterative idea generation and visual feedback prompts were linked to greater reductions in cognitive load. These findings suggest that GenAI effectiveness depends on users' prior expertise and interaction strategies through prompting.

print{.mw-parser-output .navbar{display:none!important}} v t e v t e The Carolingian dynasty ( / ˌ k ær ə ˈ l ɪ n dʒ i ə n / KARR -ə- LIN -jee-ən ; [ 1 ] known variously as the Carlovingians , Carolingi , [ 2 ] Carolings , Karolinger or Karlings ) was a Frankish noble family named after Charles Martel and his grandson Charlemagne , descendants of the Arnulfing and Pippinid clans of the 7th century AD. [ 3 ] The dynasty consolidated its power in the 8th century, eventually making the offices of mayor of the palace and dux et princeps Francorum hereditary, and becoming the de facto rulers of the Franks as the real powers behind the Merovingian throne. In 751 the Merovingian dynasty which had ruled the Franks was overthrown with the consent of the Papacy and the aristocracy, and Pepin the Short , son of Martel, was crowned king of the Franks . The Carolingian dynasty reached its peak in 800 with the crowning of Charlemagne as the first emperor of the Romans in the West in over three centuries. Charlemagne's death in 814 began an extended period of fragmentation of the Carolingian Empire and decline that would eventually lead to the evolution of the Kingdom of France and the Holy Roman Empire . Name The Carolingian dynasty takes its name from Carolus , the Latinised name of multiple Frankish kings including Charlemagne and Charles Martel . [ 4 ] The name originates from a common Germanic word, rendered in Old High German as Karl or Kerl , [ 5 ] meaning ' man ' , ' husband ' , or ' freeman ' . [ 6 ] History Origins Pippin I and Arnulf of Metz (613–645) The Carolingian line first began with two important rival Frankish families, the Pippinids and Arnulfings , whose destinies became intermingled in the early 7th century. Both men came from noble backgrounds on the western borders of the Austrasia territory between the Meuse and Moselle rivers, north of Liège . [ 7 ] [ 8 ] The first two figures, Pippin I of Landen and Arnulf of Metz , from whom historians have taken the family names, [ 9 ] both first appeared in the fourth book of the Continuations of Fredegar as advisers to Chlotar II of Neustria , who 'incited' revolt against King Theuderic II and Brunhild of Austrasia in 613. [ 10 ] Through shared interests, Pippin and Arnulf allied their families through the marriage of Pippin's daughter Begga and Arnulf's son Ansegisel . [ 7 ] As repayment for their help during the Austrasian conquest, Chlotar rewarded both men with important positions of power in Austrasia. However, Arnulf was the first to gain. He was bestowed the bishopric of Metz in 614, entrusting him with the management of the Austrasian capital and the education of Chlotar's young son, the future Dagobert I . [ 11 ] This is a position he would hold until his retirement in 629 after Chlotar's death, when he left for a small ecclesiastical community near Habendum; he was later buried at the monastery of Remiremont after his death c. 645 . [ 7 ] Pippin I (624–640) Pippin was not immediately rewarded, but eventually was given the position of maior palatti or ' mayor of the palace ' of Austrasia in 624. This reward secured Pippin a position of prime importance with the Merovingian royal court. The mayor of the palace would act as the mediator between the King and the magnates of the region; as Paul Fouracre summarises, they were 'regarded as the most important non-royal person in the kingdom.' [ 8 ] The reason Pippin was not rewarded sooner is not certain, but two mayors, Rado (613 – c. 617 ) and Chucus ( c. 617 – c. 624 ), are believed to have preceded him and were potentially political rivals connected to the fellow Austrasian Gundoinings noble family. [ 11 ] [ 8 ] Once elected, Pippin served faithfully under Chlotar until the latter's death in 629, and solidified the Pippinids' position of power within Austrasia by supporting Chlotar's son Dagobert, who became King of Austrasia in 623. [ 8 ] Pippin, with support from Arnulf and other Austrasian magnates, even used the opportunity to support the killing of an important political rival Chrodoald , an Agilolfing lord. [ 10 ] Following King Dagobert I's ascent to the throne in c. 629 , he returned the Frankish capital back to Paris in Neustria , from whence it had been removed by Chlotar in 613. As a result, Pippin lost his position as mayor and the support of the Austrasian magnates, who were seemingly irritated by his inability to persuade the King to return the political centre to Austrasia. [ 10 ] Instead, Dagobert turned to the Pippinids' political rival family, the Gundoinings, whose connections in Adalgesil , Cunibert, archbishop of Cologne , Otto and Radulf (who would later revolt in 642) [ 10 ] once again removed the Pippinid and Arnulfing influence in the Austrasia assemblies. [ 7 ] Pippin did not reappear in the historical record until Dagobert's death in 638, [ 11 ] when he had seemingly been reinstated as mayor of Austrasia and began to support the new young King Sigebert III . According to the Continuations , Pippin made arrangements with his rival, Archbishop Cunibert , to get Austrasian support for the 10-year-old King Sigibert III, who ruled Austrasia whilst his brother Clovis II ruled over Neustria and Burgundy . Soon after securing his position once again, he unexpectedly died in 640. [ 10 ] Grimoald (640–656) Following Pippin's sudden death, the Pippinid family worked swiftly to secure their position. Pippin's daughter Gertrude and wife Itta founded and entered the Nivelles Abbey , and his only son Grimoald worked to secure his father's position of maior palatii. The position was not hereditary and therefore passed to another Austrasian noble, Otto, the tutor of Sigebert III. [ 7 ] According to the Continuations , Grimoald began to work with his father's accomplice Cunibert to remove Otto from office. He finally succeeded in c. 641 , when Leuthari II, Duke of Alamannia killed Otto under Grimoald's and, we must assume, Cunibert's orders. [ 10 ] Grimoald then became mayor of Austrasia. His power at this time was extensive, with properties in Utrecht , Nijmegen , Tongeren and Maastricht ; he was even called 'ruler of the realm' by Desiderius of Cahors in 643. [ 7 ] This could not have been done if Grimoald had not secured Sigibert III's support. The Pippinids already gained royal patronage from Pippin I's support, but this was further bolstered by Grimoald's role in Duke Radulf of Thuringia's rebellion. Just prior to Otto's assassination, in c. 640 Radulf revolted against the Merovingians and made himself King of Thuringia. Sigibert, with an Austrasian army including Grimoald and Duke Adalgisel , went on campaign and after a brief victory against Fara , son of the assassinated Agilofing lord Chrodoald, the Austrasians met Radulf on the River Unstrut where he had set up a stronghold. What followed was a disorganized battle spread over several days, in which the Austrasian lords disagreed on tactics. Grimoald and Adalgesil strengthened their position by defending Sigibert's interests, but could not establish a unanimous agreement. During their final assault, the 'men of Mainz ' betrayed the Austrasians and joined with Radulf. This penultimate battle killed many important Austrasian lords, including Duke Bobo and Count Innowales , and resulted in Sigibert's defeat. The Continuations offers a famous description of Sigibert being 'seized with the wildest grief and sat there on his horse weeping unrestrainedly for those he had lost' as Radulf returned to his camp victorious. [ 10 ] Upon Sigibert's return from Unstruct, Grimoald, now mayor, began to build power for the Pippinid clan. He utilized the existing links between the family and ecclesiastical community to gain control over local holy men and women who, in turn, supported Pippinid assertions of power. Grimoald established links with Aquitanian and Columbianan missionaries Amandus and Remaclus , both of whom came to be influential bishops within the Merovingian court. Remaclus, in particular, was important as after becoming bishop of Maastricht, he established two monasteries: Stavelot Abbey and Malmedy . Under Grimoald's direction, the Arnulfings were also further established with Chlodulf of Metz , son of St. Arnulf, taking the bishopric of Metz in 656. [ 7 ] Grimoald and Childebert (656–657) The final moment of Grimoald's life is an area that is disputed in both date and event, titled: 'Grimoald's coup'. [ 8 ] It involves Grimoald and his son Childebert the Adopted taking the Austrasian throne from the true Merovingian King Dagobert II , son of the late Sigibert who died young at 26 years old. Historians like Pierre Riché are certain that Sigibert died in 656, having adopted Childebert due to his lack of an adult male heir. Following this, young Dagobert II was then exiled and tonsured by Grimoald and Dido of Poitiers , who then installed Childebert as King of Austrasia. Clovis II in Neustria, uncle to Dagobert, then reacted to the revolt and lured Grimoald and Childebert into Neustria, where they were executed. [ 7 ] This story is only confirmed by the pro-Neustrian source, [ 12 ] the Liber Historia Francorum ( LHF ) and selected charter evidence. Other contemporary sources like the Continuations fail to mention the event and Carolingian sources like Annales Mettenses Priores ( AMP ) ignore the event and even deny Grimoald's existence. [ 11 ] As such, historian Richard Gerberding has suggested a different chronology and reading of the LHF , which places Sigibert's death on 1 February 651. According to a Gerberding narrative, Grimoald and Dido organised Dagobert's exile around 16 January 651 to Ireland at Nivelles and then, when Sigibert died a month later, they acted out the plan and tonsured Dagobert, replacing him with Childebert, who ruled until 657. Clovis II then immediately acted and invaded Austrasia, executing Grimoald and his son. [ 11 ] Then, either in 657 or 662, the Neustrians (either Clovis II who died in 657 or his son Chlothar III ) installed infant King Childeric II to the throne of Austrasia, marrying him to Bilichild , the daughter of Sigibert's widow Chimnechild of Burgundy . [ 8 ] Grimoald and Childebert's deaths brought an end to the direct Pippinid line of the family, leaving the Arnulfing descendants from Begga and Ansegisel to continue the faction. [ 13 ] Pippin II (676–714) Very little is known about Pippin's early life, but a controversial story from AMP suggests that Pippin reclaimed power in Austrasia by killing a legendary 'Gundoin' as revenge for the assassination of his father Ansegisel. This story is regarded as slightly fantastical by Paul Fouracre , who argues the AMP, a pro-Carolingian source potentially written by Giselle (Charlemagne's sister) in 805 at Chelles, is that Pippin's role primes him perfectly for his future and demonstrates his family to be 'natural leaders of Austrasia.' [ 12 ] However, Fouracre does also acknowledge his existence in charter evidence and confirms that he was a political link to rival mayor Wulfoald . These rivalries would make Pippin natural enemies with Gundoin, making the murder plausible as part of Pippin's rise to power. [ 8 ] Rise to power The Arnulfing clan reappear in the contemporary historical record in c. 676 , when the LHF mentions ' Pippin and Martin' rising up against a tyrannical Ebroin , mayor of Austrasia. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] Pippin II, now head of the faction, and Martin, who was either Pippin's brother or relative, rose up against Ebroin and gathered an army (potentially with the aid of Dagobert II who had been brought back to Austrasia by mayor Wulfoald). [ 8 ] According to the LHF , the Arnulfing army met Ebroin, who had gained the support of King Theuderic III , at Bois-du-Fays , and they were easily defeated. Martin fled to Laon , from where he was lured and murdered by Ebroin at Asfeld . Pippin fled to Austrasia and soon received Ermenfred , an officer of a royal fisc who had assassinated Ebroin. [ 7 ] [ 14 ] The Neustrians, with Ebroin dead, installed Waratto as mayor, and he looked for peace with the Austrasians. Despite an exchange of hostages, Warrato's son Gistemar attacked Pippin at Namur and displaced his father. [ 8 ] He died shortly thereafter and Warrato resumed his position, wherein peace was reached but tense relations remained until Warrato's death in 686. He left behind his wife Ansfled and his son Berchar , whom the Neustrians installed as mayor. Against his father's policy, Berchar did not maintain peace and incited Pippin into violence. [ 14 ] In 687, Pippin rallied an Austrasian army and led an assault on Neustria, facing Theuderic III and the Neustrian mayor, now Berchar, in combat. They met at the Battle of Tertry , where the AMP records that Pippin, after offering peace which was rejected by Theuderic at Berchar's behest, crossed the river Omignon at the break of dawn and attacked the Neustrians, who believed the battle won when they saw Pippin's camp abandoned. This surprise attack was successful and the Neustrians fled. [ 14 ] Following this victory, Berchar was either killed, as the AMP argues, by his own people, but the LHF suggests that it is more likely that he was murdered by his mother-in-law, Ansfled. [ 14 ] This moment was decisive in Arnulfing history as it was the first time that any of the faction had national control. Paul Fouracre even argues it is for this that the AMP starts with Pippin II, as a false dawn upon which Charles Martel would rebuild. [ 12 ] However, historians have discredited the importance of this victory. Marios Costambeys , Matthew Innes and Simon MacLean all show that the Tertry victory did not establish solid authority over Neustria immediately, evidenced by the fact that Pippin immediately installed 'Norbert, one of his followers' (as written in the LHF ) and then his son Grimoald in 696 to ensure continued influence. [ 15 ] [ 14 ] Consolidation of power Pippin II then became overall mayor of the royal palace under Theuderic II, becoming mayor of Austrasia, Neustria and Burgundy. [ 7 ] His son Drogo , from his wife Plectrude , was also imbued with power when he married Berchar's widow Adaltrude (potentially maneuvered by Ansfled) and was made Duke of Champagne. [ 16 ] Pippin was politically dominating and had the power to elect the next two Merovingian kings after Theuderic II died in 691; he installed King Clovis IV (691–695), Childebert III (695–711) and Dagobert III (711–715). [ 7 ] Pippin moved to secure further power by consolidating his position in Neustria, installing several bishops like Gripho , Bishop of Rouen and Bainus at the Abbey of Saint Wandrille in 701, which was later owned along with Fleury Abbey (founded by Pippin in 703). [ 8 ] Imbued with internal strength, Pippin also began to look outwards from the Frankish Empire to subdue the people, that the AMP records, who once were 'subjected to the Franks ... [such as] the Saxons, Frisians, Alemans, Bavarians, Aquitainians, Gascons and Britons.' [ 14 ] Pippin defeated the pagan chieftain Radbod in Frisia, an area that had been slowly encroached upon by Austrasian nobles and Anglo-Saxon missionaries like Willibrord , whose links would later make him a connection between the Arnulfings and the papacy. [ 7 ] Following Gotfrid, Duke of Alemannia in 709, Pippin also moved against the Alemans and subjugated them again to royal control. Later years As Pippin approached his death in late 714, he was faced with a succession crisis. Drogo, Pippin's oldest son, died in 707 and his second son Grimoald, according to the LHF , was killed whilst praying to Saint Lambert in Liège in 714 by Rantgar, suspected by Paul Fouracre to be a pagan. [ 16 ] [ 14 ] [ 8 ] Pippin, before his death, made his six-year-old grandson Theudoald (Grimoald's son) his successor in Neustria, a choice that is believed to have been promoted by his wife Plectrude, [ 7 ] which was a political choice from within the direct family line, as Pippin had two adult illegitimate children, Charles Martel and Childebrand I , from a second wife or concubine named Alpaida . [ 11 ] They were ousted so Theudoald (with Plectrude's regency) could take the throne, a choice that would result in disaster. Death When Pippin II died in December 714, the Arnulfings' dominance over Francia disintegrated. The LHF tells us that 'Plectrude along with her grandchildren and the king directed all the affairs of state under a separate government', a system which created tensions with the Neustrians. [ 14 ] Theudoald ruled uncontested for around six months, until June 715, when the Neustrians revolted. Theudoald and the Arnulfings' supporters met at the Battle of Compiègne on 26 September 715, [ 8 ] and after a decisive victory, the Neustrians installed a new mayor Ragenfrid and, following Dagobert's death, their own Merovingian king Chilperic II . [ 14 ] Charter evidence suggests that Chilperic was the son of the former King Childeric II, but this would make Daniel in his 40s, which is quite old to take the throne. [ 8 ] Charles Martel (714–741) Rise to power Following their victory, the Neustrians joined with Radbod, King of the Frisians and invaded Austrasia, aiming towards the Meuse river to take the heartland of the faction's support. [ 10 ] It is at this moment that Charles Martel is first mentioned in historical records, which note him surviving imprisonment by his step-mother, Plectrude. Charles managed to escape and mustered an Austrasian army to face the encroaching Radbod and the Neustrians. In 716, Charles finally met the Frisians as they approached and, although the AMP attempts equalize the losses, it is confirmed from the descriptions in the LHF and the Continuations that Charles was defeated with heavy losses. [ 10 ] [ 14 ] Chilperic, Raganfred and, according to the Continuations , Radbod, then travelled from Neustria through the forest of the Ardennes and raided around the river Rhine and Cologne , taking treasure from Plectrude and her supporters. As they returned, Charles ambushed the returning party at the Battle of Amblève and was victorious, inflicting heavy losses on the Neustrian invaders. In 717, Charles mustered his army again and marched on Neustria, taking the city of Verdun during his conquest. [ 7 ] He met Chilperic and Raganfred again at the Battle of Vinchy on 21 March 717 and was once again victorious, forcing them back to Paris . He then swiftly returned to Austrasia and besieged Cologne, defeating Plectrude and reclaiming his father's wealth and treasure. Charles bolstered his position by installing the Merovingian king Chlothar IV in Austrasia as an opposing Merovingian to Chilperic II. [ 14 ] Despite not having a Merovingian king for around 40 years in Austrasia, Charles' position was weak at this time and he required the support of the established Merovingians to gather military support. [ 17 ] Despite his weaknesses, Charles' recent success had made him a greater political entity; as such, Chilperic and Raganfred could not win a decisive victory against him. So, in 718 they too sent embassies and won the support of Duke Eudo of Aquitaine who, at their request, mustered 'a Gascon army' to face Charles. In response, Charles brought an army to the eastern Neustrian borders and faced Duke Eudo in battle at Soissons. [ 8 ] Duke Eudo, realising he was outmatched, retreated to Paris, where he took Chilperic and the royal treasury and left for Aquitaine . Charles pursued them, according to the Continuations , as far as Orleans, but Eudo and the Neustrians managed to escape. [ 10 ] In 718, King Chlothar IV died and was not replaced; instead, Charles became the primary authority in Francia. He established a peace treaty with Duke Eudo that ensured Chilperic II was returned to Francia; thereafter, until Chilperic's death in 720 at Noyon , the kingship was restored with Carolingian control and Charles became the maior palatii in both Neustria and Austrasia. [ 17 ] Following Chilperic II's death, the Merovingian king Theuderic IV , son of Dagobert III, was taken from Chelles Abbey and appointed by the Neustrians and Charles as the Frankish king. Consolidation of power With his ascension to the throne, several significant moments in Frankish history occurred. Firstly, the LHF ended, likely composed several years later in 727 and ended one of the several perspectives we have on Charles' ascension. [ 11 ] Secondly, and more importantly, the Arnulfing predominance in the faction ended and the Carolingian (translating to 'sons of Charles') officially began. [ 15 ] Once the immediate dangers were dealt with, Charles then began to consolidate his position as sole mayor of the Frankish kingdom. The civil unrest between 714 and 721 had destroyed the continental political cohesion, and peripheral kingdoms like Aquitaine, Alemannia , Burgundy and Bavaria had slipped from the Carolingian's grasp. Even though the faction had, by Charles Martel's time, established strong political control over Francia, loyalty to the Merovingian power within these border regions remained. [ 15 ] Ending the Civil War Charles first set out to reinstate Carolingian dominance internally within Francia: the Continuations lists Charles' continuous maneuvers which solidified the campaigns generating the Carolingian military foundation. In 718, the AMP records that Charles fought against the Saxons, pushing them as far as the river Weser [ 14 ] and following up with subsequent campaigns in 720 and 724 which secured the northern borders of Austrasia and Neustria. [ 17 ] He subdued his former enemy Raganfred at Angers in 724 and secured his patronage, removing the remaining political resistance that had continued to thrive in western Neustria. [ 13 ] East of the Rhine In 725, Charles set out against the peripheral kingdoms, starting with Alemannia. The region had almost gained independence during the reign of Pippin II and under the leadership of Lantfrid , Duke of Alemannia, as (710–730) they acted without Frankish authority, issuing law codes like the Lex Alamannorum without Carolingian consultation. As recorded in the Alemannia source, [ 18 ] the Breviary of Erchanbert , the Alemanni 'refused to obey the duces of the Franks because they were no longer able to serve the Merovingian kings. Therefore, each of them kept to himself.' [ 16 ] This statement was true for more than just Alemannia and, just like in those regions, Charles brutally forced them into submission. Charles was successful in his first campaign, but returned in 730, the same year that Duke Lantfrid died and was succeeded by his brother Theudebald, Duke of Alamannia . [ 8 ] As successful as campaigning had been, Charles seemingly took inspiration from Anglo-Saxon missionary Saint Boniface , who in 719 was sent by Pope Gregory II to convert Germany, in particular the areas of Thuringia and Hesse , where he established the monasteries of Ohrdruf , Tauberbischofsheim , Kitzingen and Ochsenfurt . Charles, realising the potential of establishing Carolingian-supportive episcopal centres, utilised Saint Pirmin , an itinerant monk, to establish an ecclesiastical foundation on Reichenau Island in Lake Constance . He was expelled in 727 by Lantfrid and he retreated to Alsace , where he established monasteries with the support of the Etichonid clan, who were Carolingian supporters. This relationship gave the Carolingians long-term benefit from Pirmin's future achievements, which brought abbeys in the eastern provinces into Carolingian favour. [ 7 ] In 725, Charles continued his conquest from Alemannia and invaded Bavaria. Like Alemannia, Bavaria had continued to gain independence under the rule of the Agilolfings clan who, in recent years, had increased links with Lombardy and affirmed their own law codes, like the Lex Baiuvariorum . [ 16 ] When Charles moved, the region was experiencing a power struggle between Grimoald of Bavaria and his nephew Hugbert , but when Grimoald died in 725, Hugbert gained the position and Charles reaffirmed their support. The Continuations records that when Charles left Bavaria, he took hostages, one of which was Swanachild , who later would become Charles' second wife. [ 10 ] Paul Fouracre believes this marriage could have been intentionally forced, based upon the fact that Swanchild's heritage related her both to Alemannia and Bavaria. Not only would their marriage have allowed greater control over both regions, but it also would have cut the existing family ties that the Agilofings had to the Pippinid family branch. Plectrude's sister Regintrud was married to Theodo of Bavaria , and this relation provided an opportunity for disenfranchised family members to defect. [ 8 ] Aquitaine, Burgundy and Provence Following his conquest east of the Rhine, Charles had the opportunity to assert his dominance over Aquitaine and began committing military resources and performing raids in 731. [ 19 ] However, before he could make any major movements, Aquitaine was invaded by Umayyad warlord Abd al-Rahman I . Following Abd al-Rahman's ascension in Spain in 731, another local Berber lord Munuza revolted, set himself up at Cerdanya and forged defensive alliances with the Franks and Aquitainians through a marriage to Eudo's daughter. Abd ar-Rahman then besieged Cerdanya and forced Munuza into retreat into France, at which point he continued his advance into Aquitaine, moving as far as Tours before he was met by Charles Martel. Carolingian sources attest that Duke Eudo begged Charles for assistance, but Ian N. Wood claims these embassies have been invented by later pro-Carolingian annalists. Eudo was a main protagonist in the Battle of Toulouse (721) , which famously stopped Muslim lord Al-Samh ibn Malik al-Khawlani 's advances in Narbonne and gained Eudo praise in the Liber Pontificalis . [ 20 ] Charles met the Muslim force at the famous Battle of Poitiers (732) and came out victorious. This moment cemented Charles Martel in historical records and gained him international praise. Bede , writing at the same time in Jarrow , England, recorded the event in his Ecclesiastical History of the English People , and his victory gained Charles Martel the admiration of seminal historian Edward Gibbon who considered him the Christian saviour of Europe. [ 21 ] [ 22 ] Although his victory was considered famous, in reality his victory was far less impactful, and Charles would not gain much control in Aquitaine until Eudo's death in 735. The victory may have given the Carolingians relative local support that potentially allowed Charles to assert dominance over Eudo's son and successor Hunald of Aquitaine , but records of continued hostilities in 736 only further cemented that relations were strained. [ 23 ] [ 15 ] With a stronger establishment in Aquitaine, Charles made moves to assert his dominance into Burgundy. [ 24 ] The region, at least in the Northern areas, had remained controlled and allied with Frankish interest. Influential nobility like Savaric of Auxerre , who had maintained near-autonomy and led military forces against Burgundian towns like Orléans , Nevers and Troyes , even dying whilst besieging Lyon , were the key to Charles' support. As such, Charles made multiple attempts to both gain the faction's support and remove their authority. When Savaric died during Charles' early reign, he agreed to support Savaric's nephew Bishop Eucherius of Orléans ' claim to the bishopric. However, once Charles had established a powerful basis by 737, he exiled Eucherius, with the help of a man called Chrodobert, to the monastery of St Trond . [ 20 ] Charles took further military action in the same year to fully assert his authority, and installed his sons Pippin and Remigius as magnates. This was followed by the installation of political supporters from Bavaria and local supporters like Theuderic of Autun and Adalhard of Chalon . [ 7 ] This acquisition of land in southern France was supported by the increased social chaos that seemingly developed during the Civil War years. This was most apparent in Provence , where local magnates, like Abbo of Provence , were incredibly supportive of Charles' attempts to reinstate Frankish power. [ 25 ] In 739, he used his power in Burgundy and Aquitaine to lead an attack with his brother Childebrand I against Arab invaders and Duke Maurontus , who had been claiming independence and allying himself with Muslim emir Abd ar-Rahman. [ 26 ] It is likely due to Childebrand's sponsorship of the manuscript that his involvement is so extensively recorded in the Continuations . [ 27 ] According to the manuscript, Childebrand and Charles noticed the Arab army, with Maurontus' welcome, entering Avignon and quickly moved against the alliance. They besieged the city and claimed victory; the Franks then made the decision to invade Septimania , taking Narbonne and flanking the Arab army. The Franks then fought off a support army sent from Spain under Omar-ibn Chaled at the River Berre . From there the Franks then pursued the retreating Arabs and ravaged the cities of Nîmes , Agde and Béziers before returning to Francia. Later that year, Charles and Childebrand returned to Provence, likely collecting more forces, and then forcing the rebellious Maurontus into 'impenetrable rocky fastnesses out to sea.' [ 27 ] Paul the Deacon later records in his Historia Langobardorum Maurontus received help from the Lombards, and his Arab allies then fled. [ 28 ] At this time, Charles then assumed control of the region and, judging from Charter evidence, appointed Abbo of Provence as patricius (Patrician) in the region. [ 29 ] Ruling Francia Charles also ruled the Frankish realm, although the majority of his policies were centred upon his conquests and his military ventures. In 19th century historiography, historians like Heinrich Brunner even centred their arguments around Charles' necessity for military resources, in particular the development of mounted warrior or cavalry that would peak in the High Middle Ages . However, in modern historiography, historians like Pierre Riche and Paul Fouracre have discredited his ideas as too simplistic and have aimed to depict more realistic fragments of development that may or not have been interdependent. [ 30 ] This was the period in which the Carolingians first began to establish themselves as fully independent from the Merovingian royalty. Vassalage and Church Charles Martel has become notorious in historiography for his role in the development of the concept of feudalism . The debates are rooted in the arguments of historians like François-Louis Ganshof , who viewed Charles' reign as the birth of the 'feudal' relationship between power and property. This results from the increased use of precaria or temporary land grants by the Carolingians, who allocated and spread their power to their subordinates. Ganshof's arguments connect these ties to a military-tenure relationship; however, this is never represented in primary material, and instead is only implied, and likely derived from, an understanding of 'feudalism' in the High Middle Ages. Recent historians like Paul Fouracre have criticised Ganshof's review for being too simplistic, and in reality, even though these systems of vassalage did exist between lord and populace, they were not as standardised as older historiography has suggested. For example, Fouracre has drawn particular attention to the incentives that drew lords and warriors into the Carolingian armies, arguing that the primary draw was 'booty' and treasure gained from conquest rather than 'feudal' obligation. [ 30 ] Although Charles' reign is no longer considered transitional in its feudal developments, it is seen as a transitional period in the spread of the existing system of vassals and precaria land rights. Due to Charles' continued military and missionary work, the political systems that existed in the heartlands, Austrasia and Neustria, officially began to spread to the periphery. [ 30 ] Those whom Charles appointed as new nobility in these regions, often with lifetime tenures, [ 31 ] ensured that Carolingian loyalties and systems was maintained across the kingdoms. The Carolingians were also far more strict with their land rights and tenure than their Merovingian predecessors, carefully distributing their new land to new families temporarily, but maintaining their control. Merovingians kings weakened themselves by allocating too much of their royal domains to supporting factions; the Carolingians themselves seemingly became increasingly powerful due to their generosity. By giving away their land, the Merovingians allowed themselves to become figureheads and the 'do nothing kings' that Einhard prefaced in the Vita Karoli Magni . [ 7 ] [ 32 ] Due to his vast military conquests, Charles often reallocated existing land settlements, including Church property, to new tenants. Ecclesiastical property and monasteries in the late Merovingian and Carolingian period were political centres and often closely related to the royal court; [ 33 ] as such they often became involved in political matters, which often overlapped with Charles' reallocation of land. This 'secularisation' of Church property caused serious tension between the Carolingian church and state, and often gave Charles a negative depiction in ecclastical sources. The reallocation of church land was not new by Charles' reign; Ian Wood has managed to identify the practice going back to the reigns of Dagobert I (629–639) and Clovis II (639–657). [ 34 ] The majority of the sources that depict Charles' involvement in Church land rights come from the 9th century, and are therefore less reliable, but two supposedly contemporary sources also identify this issue. [ 35 ] The first, a letter sent by missionary Saint Boniface to Anglo-Saxon king Æthelbald of Mercia , called Charles' a 'destroyer of many monasteries, and embezzler of Church revenues for his own use...', condemning him for his use of Church property. This is supported by the second source, the Contintuations , which related that, in 733 in Burgundy, Charles split the Lyonnais between his followers, this likely including Church land. [ 36 ] Further chronicles like the Gesta episcoporum Autissiodorensium and the Gesta Sanctorum Patrum Fontanellensis Coenobii recorded monasteries losing substantial land. The monastery at Auxerre was reduced to a hundred mansus by Pippin III's reign, and at the Abbey of Saint Wandrille under Abbot Teutsind , who was appointed by Charles in 735/6, the Church's local property was reduced to a third its size. [ 30 ] Wood has also criticised this point and proven that the loss of land by the Church was in reality very small, the remaining land being simply leased as it went beyond the Church's capabilities. [ 37 ] Regardless, it is apparent that Charles' expansion of control consumed plenty of reallocated properties, many of which were ecclesiastical domains. Interregnum, death and divisions When King Theuderic IV died in 737, Charles did not install a Merovingian successor. Unlike his Carolingian predecessors, Charles was strong enough by the end of his reign to not rely on Merovingian loyalties. He had created his own power bloc through the vassals he installed in Frankish heartlands and peripheral states. [ 25 ] Even prior to Theuderic's death, Charles did act with complete sovereignty in Austrasia. It was only in areas like Neustria, where Carolingian opposition historically existed, that Charles knew he would face criticism if he usurped the throne. [ 38 ] Therefore, until his death, Charles ruled as Princeps or First Man/First Citizen, officially gaining the title with his uncontested leadership with the acquisition of Provence in 737. [ 39 ] This meant that the issue of kingship remained ever present for his successors who would have to work further to establish themselves as royal. When Charles died in 741, he was buried at St Denis in Paris. He made secure succession plans, likely learning from his father, that ensured Francia was effectively divided between his sons, Carloman and Pippin as maior palatii . According to the Continuations , the eldest son, Carloman, was given control of the eastern kingdoms in Austrasia, Alammania and Thuringia, while Pippin was given the western kingdoms in Burgundy, Neustria and Provence. [ 40 ] Charlemagne The greatest Carolingian monarch was Charlemagne , Pepin's son. Charlemagne was crowned Emperor by Pope Leo III at Rome in 800. [ 41 ] His empire, ostensibly a continuation of the Western Roman Empire , is referred to historiographically as the Carolingian Empire . The Carolingian rulers did not give up the traditional Frankish (and Merovingian ) practice of dividing inheritances among heirs, though the concept of the indivisibility of the Empire was also accepted. The Carolingians had the practice of making their sons minor kings in the various regions ( regna ) of the Empire, which they would inherit on the death of their father, which Charlemagne and his son Louis the Pious both did for their sons. Following the death of the Emperor Louis the Pious in 840, his surviving adult sons, Lothair I and Louis the German , along with their adolescent brother Charles the Bald , fought a three-year civil war ending only with the Treaty of Verdun in 843, which divided the empire into three regna while according imperial status and a nominal lordship to Lothair who, at 48, was the eldest. [ 42 ] The Carolingians differed markedly from the Merovingians in that they disallowed inheritance to illegitimate offspring, possibly in an effort to prevent infighting among heirs and assure a limit to the division of the realm. In the late ninth century, however, the lack of suitable adults among the Carolingians necessitated the rise of Arnulf of Carinthia as the king of East Francia , a bastard child of a legitimate Carolingian king, Carloman of Bavaria , [ 43 ] himself a son of the First King of the Eastern division of the Frankish kingdom, Louis the German. Weakening and disappearance of the dynasty Disappearance of Middle Francia Lothair was the first of the three brothers to die, leaving the empire at the mercy of the other two. Finally, after many twists and turns, his domain was gradually attached to East Francia, with the Scheldt marking the border between West and East Francia. The king of East Francia, at the same time, also recovered the title of emperor. [ 44 ] [ 45 ] Decline After Charlemagne's death the dynasty slowly crumbled. His kingdom was split into three, each being ruled over by one of his grandsons. Only the kingdoms of the eastern and western portions survived, becoming the predecessors of modern Germany and France. [ 46 ] The Carolingians were displaced in most of the regna of the Empire by 888. They ruled in East Francia until 911 and held the throne of West Francia intermittently until 987. Carolingian cadet branches continued to rule in Vermandois and Lower Lorraine after the last king died in 987, but they never sought the royal or imperial thrones and made peace with the new ruling families. One chronicler of Sens dates the end of Carolingian rule with the coronation of Robert II of France as junior co-ruler with his father, Hugh Capet , thus beginning the Capetian dynasty . [ 47 ] Scandinavian invasions The term Vikings generally designated all the peoples from present-day Scandinavia . In the Carolingian period, they were first known as Normans ("men of the north", origin of the name Normandy ) and later as Vikings. They sold amber, animal skins, and metals, and bought honey, wine, and everything they could not produce in their lands. They were present, in small groups, in most coastal towns of the Frankish Empire. [ 48 ] [ 49 ] Around 800 , the Vikings became aware of a new means of enrichment. Since they were not Christians, they did not have to respect the abbeys , which contained, with minimal defensive structure (a wall and sometimes a few guards), considerable treasure, consisting of chasses , reliquaries , precious metal objects for use in worship. These objects were particularly sought after in this period of weak monetary circulation, when metal was important not only for its value but also for the prestige associated with it. [ 50 ] Consequently, from 800 to about 850 , the Vikings continued their trading practices, while also attempting raids on isolated monastic establishments whenever the opportunity arose. The first establishment to suffer was the monastery of Lindisfarne , on the British coast, attacked by the Vikings in 793 . After this first attack, Viking pressure increased: they sailed up rivers aboard their shallow-draft ships, improperly called “ drakkars ”, and plundered the treasures of the abbeys before returning to Scandinavia. For the moment, these were only brief expeditions: the Normans plundered, carried off goods, and left, most often after burning the place. These attacks nevertheless terrified the population by their speed, violence, and also because they struck churches which, since the establishment of Christianity, had never been attacked. In 841 , the Normans attacked the Abbey of Jumièges and the city of Rouen ; the monks had to flee from the danger of raids, carrying with them the relics of their saints. The Île de Noirmoutier was also repeatedly targeted by the Normans, to the point that the monks abandoned their monastery and settled about twenty-five km south of Nantes , at Déas, which became Saint-Philbert-de-Grand-Lieu . In 843 , Nantes was taken and part of the population massacred. In the second third of the 9th century, most of the towns located along rivers were visited by the Normans. [ 51 ] [ 52 ] At the end of the 9th century, the phenomenon grew in importance. These were now much more organized bands, who had decided in advance their routes and knew where to go. The expeditions were also more numerous, sometimes a hundred boats, compared to a small dozen at most at the beginning of the century. Finally, they no longer contented themselves with plundering and leaving. More and more often, they carried away the population to be sold as slaves and settled in conquered territories where they sometimes spent the winter. [ 53 ] [ 54 ] [ 55 ] The Vikings ravaged Europe but also the Iberian Peninsula , then Muslim , and North Africa , without anyone being able to stop them. As it was impossible to control the entire territory and their strength lay in the speed of their fleets and the brutality of their expeditions, it was difficult to predict where they would attack. When they did not attack, the Vikings demanded the payment of heavy tributes. The quarrels among the sons of Louis the Pious hardly improved the situation. Lothair and his brother Louis took little interest in the problem, which fell almost entirely to Charles , the youngest son, who inherited all the coastal territories. Charles, who would be nicknamed the Bald , tried to build additional fortifications. He asked the leaders of the aristocracy to defend the threatened regions. Robert the Strong (ancestor of the Capetians ) was placed by the king at the head of a western march ; he died fighting the Vikings in 866 . Count Odo defended Paris against an attack coming up the Seine in 885 . These great lords acquired immense prestige in the struggle against the Scandinavian invader, prestige that contributed to the weakening of royal power. Military successes were now attributed to the marquises and counts . The inability of the Carolingians to resolve the Scandinavian problem was evident: in 911 , by the Treaty of Saint-Clair-sur-Epte , King Charles the Simple ceded the Lower Seine to the Viking chief Rollo . He entrusted him with the defense of the estuary and the river downstream of Paris. This decision was at the origin of the creation of the Duchy of Normandy . The Carolingians were forced to cede territories and deliver tributes to counter the Scandinavian threat. They were also absorbed by family quarrels. The climate of insecurity therefore accelerated the disintegration of Carolingian power.

A grand strategy is a long term military and political strategy that lasts for longer than a typical campaigning season, and can span long periods of time. [ 59 ] The Carolingians followed a set course of action that discounts the idea of a random rise in power and can be considered as a grand strategy. Another major part of the grand strategy of the early Carolingians encompassed their political alliance with the aristocracy. This political relationship gave the Carolingians authority and power in the Frankish kingdom. Beginning with Pippin II, the Carolingians set out to put the regnum Francorum ("kingdom of the Franks") back together, after its fragmentation after the death of Dagobert I , a Merovingian king. After an early failed attempt in c. 651 to usurp the throne from the Merovingians, the early Carolingians began to slowly gain power and influence as they consolidated military power as mayors of the palace. In order to do this, the Carolingians used a combination of Late Roman military organization along with the incremental changes that occurred between the fifth and eighth centuries. Because of the defensive strategy the Romans had implemented during the Late Empire, the population had become militarized and were thus available for military use. [ 60 ] The existence of the remaining Roman infrastructure that could be used for military purposes, such as roads, strongholds and fortified cities meant that the reformed strategies of the Late Romans would still be relevant. Civilian men who lived either in or near a walled city or strong point were required to learn how to fight and defend the areas in which they lived. These men were rarely used in the course of Carolingian grand strategy because they were used for defensive purposes, and the Carolingians were for the most part on the offensive most of the time. Another class of civilians were required to serve in the military which included going on campaigns. Depending on one's wealth, one would be required to render different sorts of service, and "the richer the man was, the greater was his military obligation for service". [ 61 ] For example, if rich, one might be required as a knight. Or one might be required to provide a number of fighting men. In addition to those who owed military service for the lands they had, there were also professional soldiers who fought for the Carolingians. If the holder of a certain amount of land was ineligible for military service (women, old men, sickly men or cowards) they would still owe military service. Instead of going themselves, they would hire a soldier to fight in their place. Institutions, such as monasteries or churches were also required to send soldiers to fight based on the wealth and the amount of lands they held. In fact, the use of ecclesiastical institutions for their resources for the military was a tradition that the Carolingians continued and greatly benefitted from. It was "highly unlikely that armies of many more than a hundred thousand effectives with their support systems could be supplied in the field in a single theatre of operation." [ 62 ] Because of this, each landholder would not be required to mobilize all of his men each year for the campaigning season, but instead, the Carolingians would decide which kinds of troops were needed from each landholder, and what they should bring with them. In some cases, sending men to fight could be substituted for different types of war machines. In order to send effective fighting men, many institutions would have well trained soldiers that were skilled in fighting as heavily armored troops. These men would be trained, armored, and given the things they needed in order to fight as heavy troops at the expense of the household or institution for whom they fought. These armed retinues served almost as private armies, "which were supported at the expense of the great magnates, [and] were of considerable importance to early Carolingian military organization and warfare." [ 63 ] The Carolingians themselves supported their own military household and they were the most important "core of the standing army in the" regnum Francorum . [ 64 ] It was by utilizing the organization of the military in an effective manner that contributed to the success of the Carolingians in their grand strategy. This strategy consisted of strictly adhering to the reconstruction of the regnum Francorum under their authority. Bernard Bachrach gives three principles for Carolingian long-term strategy that spanned generations of Carolingian rulers: The first principle… was to move cautiously outward from the Carolingian base in Austrasia. Its second principle was to engage in a single region at a time until the conquest had been accomplished. The third principle was to avoid becoming involved beyond the frontiers of the regnum Francorum or to do so when absolutely necessary and then not for the purpose of conquest". [ 65 ] The first principle… was to move cautiously outward from the Carolingian base in Austrasia. Its second principle was to engage in a single region at a time until the conquest had been accomplished. The third principle was to avoid becoming involved beyond the frontiers of the regnum Francorum or to do so when absolutely necessary and then not for the purpose of conquest". [ 65 ] This is important to the development of medieval history because without such a military organization and without a grand strategy, the Carolingians would not have successfully become kings of the Franks, as legitimized by the bishop of Rome. Furthermore, it was ultimately because of their efforts and infrastructure that Charlemagne was able to become such a powerful king and be crowned Emperor of the Romans in 800. Without the efforts of his predecessors, he would not have been as successful as he was and the revival of the Roman Empire in the West was likely to have not occurred.

She began her career in journalism and published several works of non-fiction, including books on class, animals and marriage, before turning to fiction. Her first book was How to Stay Married , which was published in 1969. She published several collections of journalism, alongside other non-fiction volumes throughout much of her career. Cooper's first novel to be published was the romance , Emily , which appeared in 1975 and was followed by five more, as well as a volume of short stories. Cooper was also an anthologist and wrote the Little Mabel series of children's books. Cooper went on to become a prominent figure in British popular literature, noted for her witty social commentary and depictions of upper-middle-class life. Her best-known works are the Rutshire Chronicles of which the 1985 novel Riders was the first; it was followed by ten more volumes with the latest installment Tackle! published in 2023. The series is known for its humour, sexuality and depictions of upper-class life; several of the volumes feature the character Rupert Campbell-Black as a key protagonist. Whilst Riders alone sold over one million copies, and her romance novels compared to those of Nancy Mitford and Barbara Cartland , not all reviews were positive. Private Eye lampooned Cooper and gave her the nickname 'Super Cooper', which she later used as a title for one of her own books. Nevertheless Cooper is recognised as one of the key writers of the bonkbuster novel, along with Jackie Collins , Shirley Conran and Judith Krantz . Whilst few academics have analysed her work, those that have, recognise her ability to portray large cast of characters and her focus on pleasure as a literary theme. Academic Ian Patterson compared her to Anthony Trollope and Charles Dickens . In 2025, the Jilly Cooper Prize was established as part of the Comedy Women in Print Awards to honour her contribution to comic fiction. After Cooper's death in the same year, Queen Camilla described her as a "wonderfully witty and compassionate friend". Cooper had received several honours during her lifetime, including that of Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) in the 2024 New Year Honours for services to literature and charity. Several of her works were adapted for television and radio, including the second Rutshire Chronicles volume, Rivals , which was adapted by Disney+ and released in 2024. It starred David Tennant and Aidan Turner . Early life Jill Sallitt was born in Hornchurch , Essex, on 21 February 1937 to Mary Elaine ( née Whincup) and Brigadier W. B. Sallitt. [ 1 ] She grew up in Ilkley , Yorkshire, and in Surrey . Cooper was educated at Moorfield School in Ilkley and Godolphin School in Salisbury , Wiltshire. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] She subsequently learnt to type in Oxford. [ 3 ] Journalism and non-fiction Aged 20, Cooper became a junior reporter for The Middlesex Independent , based in Brentford . [ 3 ] She worked for the paper from 1957 to 1959. Subsequently, she worked as an account executive, copywriter , publisher's reader and receptionist . [ 4 ] Her break came with a chance meeting at a dinner party with Godfrey Smith , the editor of The Sunday Times Magazine , who asked her to write a feature about her experiences as a young married woman. [ 4 ] This led to a column in which Cooper wrote about marriage , sex and housework . [ 3 ] That column ran from 1969 to 1982, when she moved to The Mail on Sunday , where she worked as a columnist for a further five years. [ 3 ] In parallel to her journalism, Cooper wrote several humorous and satirical books: her earliest columns led to the publication of her first book, the satirical How to Stay Married , in 1969, which was quickly followed by another satirical guide to working life, How to Survive from Nine to Five , in 1970. [ 5 ] Further satirical works were Men and Super Men , published in 1972, [ 6 ] and Women and Super Women , published in 1974. [ 7 ] The former has mixed reviews, with the Liverpool Daily Post describing the puns as bad, but that Cooper's writing had a "knowing adolescence". [ 6 ] In contrast the Evening Dispatch instructed all its readers to immediately buy it, as a guide to "men and sex". [ 8 ] Women and Super Women was reviewed positively by Clive James in The Observer , [ 9 ] whereas other reviews described the book as cruel (if funny) in its discussions of a wide range of women. [ 7 ] Cooper's journalism was first collected into a single volume, Jolly Super , in 1971. [ 5 ] That collection took its title from the nickname given to Cooper by Private Eye . [ 10 ] A further collection Jolly Super Too was published in 1973. [ 11 ] The Birmingham Evening Mail compared Cooper to Mick McManus as someone the public loved to hate, and stated that the book would deliver "a snigger a minute" to readers. [ 12 ] Jolly Superlative was published in 1975 and largely included pieces from The Sunday Times , but also Vogue , and was praised by The Daily Telegraph for its "limitless comic invention". [ 13 ] In 1977 another collection of journalism, Super Jilly, was reviewed by Clive James in the The Observer as "another breathless year-book by the Sunday Times' head-girl". [ 14 ] The same year How to Stay Married and How to Survive from Nine to Five were republished together in a single volume in 1977 under the revised title How To Survive Work and Wedlock. [ 15 ] The combined volume had mixed reviews from "saucy, but relevant" according to the Sydney Morning Herald , [ 16 ] to the Evening Standard describing how "Women's Lib must hate her insouciant approach to the woman's world". [ 17 ] The theme of class dominated much of her writing and her non-fiction with her work written from an explicitly upper-middle-class British perspective, with emphasis on the relationships between men and women and matters of social class in contemporary Britain. [ 2 ] Upon the publication of 1979's book Class , Ralf Dahrendorf reviewed it for the London Review of Books , describing the work as one where "the characters are fun, the observations acute". [ 18 ] Published in 2000 David Cannadine 's Class in Britain assessed Cooper's book, pointing out that Cooper herself had felt that it did not fully describe the intricacies of the British class system. [ 19 ] Another republication during this period was 1980's Super Cooper , which was a volume of excerpts from her earlier books Men and Super Men and Women and Super Women. [ 20 ] This was described the Sydney Morning Herald as a "brilliant guide to the sexes" and by the Liverpool as a volume "that never disappoints the reader". [ 20 ] [ 21 ] Jolly Marsupial another volume of journalism, this time focussing on Cooper's 1980 tour of Australia to promote the book Class , was published in 1982. [ 22 ] In 1981 Cooper published Intelligent and Loyal , which is a book about mongrels . [ 23 ] In it Cooper created her own humorous typology for mongrels. [ 24 ] To gather stories about mongrels for the book, Cooper put an advert in newspapers asking people to share stories about their pets for the book. [ 23 ] [ 25 ] As a result of the book's success Cooper and her dogs subsequently made public appearances, including on The Animals Roadshow in 1989. [ 26 ] In 1983 she published Animals in War , a book that recorded the contributions a variety of species made to the military. [ 27 ] Public response to the book led to a campaign, supported by Cooper, to establish the Animals in War Memorial . [ 28 ] [ 29 ] Cooper edited an anthology of prose and poetry entitled The British in Love . [ 30 ] With Tom Hartman she also co-edited a dictionary of quotations purely sourced from women entitled Violets and Vinegar . [ 31 ] In 2020, some of her writings on sex and marriage from the 1970s were republished as Between the Covers and praised for their honesty . [ 32 ] Fiction Cooper has been described as "the queen of the bonkbuster ", [ 33 ] however her first novels were romances. [ 34 ] [ 35 ] These were followed by the Rutshire Chronicles series, where dogs and horses featured heavily. [ 36 ] Cooper described the research she undertook for each novel as "like studying for an A-level". [ 37 ] Quoted in the Evening Standard in 1994, Cooper stated that she thought that product placement in literary works was acceptable and discussed how she had received thank you gifts as a result of unsolicited mentions in her novels. [ 38 ] Romantic novels series Cooper was encouraged to write romantic fiction by the editor Desmond Elliott , who had read the short stories she had written previously for teenage magazines. [ 34 ] At the time she was working in publicity for HarperCollins ; Elliott commissioned her with a six-book contract and the paperback rights were subsequently sold to Corgi Books . [ 34 ] The series sold in the 100,000s. [ 34 ] The contract was for Cooper to publish a novel every six months. [ 39 ] The first novel in the series was Emily , which was published in 1975. [ 40 ] Set on a remote Scottish island, its storyline follows Emily who moves to the island after a short courtship and marriage to a volatile artist. [ 41 ] Reviews were complimentary, [ 42 ] [ 43 ] although Auberon Waugh noted similarity between Emily and Devil's Cub by Georgette Heyer . [ 44 ] The work was compared to that of Nancy Mitford and Barbara Cartland . [ 39 ] Emily was followed by Harriet and then Bella , both published in 1976. [ 45 ] [ 46 ] In Harriet , the titular character becomes pregnant whilst at university and subsequently works as a nanny for an irascible screenwriter so she can take the baby with her. [ 47 ] In review, Barbara Cartland disliked the novel. [ 48 ] The novel Bella ' s storyline revolves around an actress whose fiancé is super-wealthy, but his family do not approve of Bella. [ 49 ] The novel mixes romance and mystery, as Bella is kidnapped. [ 49 ] Auberon Waugh praised the emotional engagement of the novel, but The Guardian described disappointment since good jokes were lost in the prose. [ 44 ] [ 50 ] In October 1993, seven years after Private Eye had pointed out the similarities, Cooper admitted that sections of Emily and Bella were plagiarised from The Dud Avocado (1958) by Elaine Dundy , but said that it was not deliberate. [ 51 ] The next novel in the series was Octavia , which was published in 1977, set in Britain during the 1970s. [ 52 ] Reviews were less positive than the previous novels, but Cooper's word-play continued to be praised. [ 53 ] In a review Auberon Waugh expressed frustration with the novel as he felt Cooper could write much better than the text. [ 54 ] Octavia was followed by the novel Prudence , which was set in the Lake District in England during a house party. [ 55 ] [ 56 ] The novel had a mixed reception upon publication, including from one reviewer who hoped it was the last in the series. [ 57 ] In response, Cooper's publisher, Desmond Elliott, wrote to the paper announcing that the next novel, Imogen , was due that same year and it too was likely to be enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of readers. [ 57 ] The final novel in the series is Imogen , which was published in 1978. [ 58 ] At the time of publication, the preceding five novels had sold 340,000 copies. [ 59 ] Set between Yorkshire and the south of France, it follows Imogen as she is seduced by a tennis player, who takes her on holiday, but ultimately falls in love with his best friend. [ 58 ] The novel was mostly received favourably, [ 60 ] although the character of Imogen was described in one review as "spineless". [ 61 ] It is cited as an example in academic texts on a variety of themes, including the allure of the French Riviera for Anglo-American culture, [ 62 ] and a cultural analysis of cohabitation in the 1970s. [ 63 ] Also grouped in the romance series is the short story collection Lisa & Co ; each story is based on some of Cooper's earliest writings for women's magazines in the 1960s. [ 64 ] [ 65 ] In 2017 in her book The Gender Games , transgender writer Juno Dawson described how her obsession with the "ultra-glam" covers of these romances as a child gave her a sense that she was not "very good at being a boy". [ 66 ] The Rutshire Chronicles The best-known of Cooper's works, each book of the Rutshire Chronicles is set in a glamorous and wealthy milieu , such as the worlds of show jumping or classical music . [ 67 ] [ 68 ] These books were noted for the luxurious lifestyles portrayed, the proliferation of animals and their wit. [ 69 ] The first in the series was Riders (1985), an international bestseller, which sold over one million copies. [ 70 ] The first version of Riders was written by 1970, but shortly after Cooper had finished it, she took it with her into the West End of London , but left the manuscript on a bus. The London Evening Standard put out an appeal, but it was never found. She was, she says, "devastated" and it took her more than a decade to start it again. [ 71 ] Set in the world of show-jumping, the novel is the first appearance of Cooper's ongoing central character Rupert Campbell-Black . [ 72 ] The novel centres on his rivalry with fellow show-jumper Jake Lovell and the novel's denouement is set in the Los Angeles Olympics . [ 73 ] The follow-up novel to Riders was Rivals , set in the world of commercial television. [ 74 ] Still featuring Campbell-Black, he joins forces with television presenter Declan O'Hara and other characters to take over the local television station. [ 75 ] [ 76 ] Despite some initial scepticism from her publisher about the setting, [ 77 ] the novel debuted at #2 on the Sunday Times bestseller list for hardback fiction on June 12, 1988. [ 78 ] The next novel in the series was Polo , published in 1991, and was a return to the horse-focussed settings that Cooper became known for. [ 79 ] Cooper researched the book by travelling to Palm Beach and to Argentina, meeting polo players there. [ 80 ] [ 81 ] The novel went to number 1 in the UK hardback bestseller list, on its first entry. [ 82 ] Based on a rivalry between British polo player Ricky France-Lynch and an American millionaire Bart Alderton, the novel follows the teams associated with the two figures as they compete around the world. [ 83 ] It also features Rupert Campbell-Black's illegitimate daughter Perdita as a key protagonist. [ 84 ] [ 85 ] [ 86 ] Following Polo , the next novel in the series was The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous , which followed the life of Lysander Hawkley, a man who rich women employed to encourage their unfaithful husbands to return to their marriages. [ 87 ] It was the first novel to feature Roberto Rannaldini, a conductor and sworn enemy of Rupert Campbell-Black. [ 88 ] The novel received a range of reviews, but was praised for its "plain" heroine and a sub-plot relating to miscarriage. [ 89 ] [ 90 ] The next in the series was Appassionata , which was based in the world of classical music and followed the career of soloist, then conductor, Abigail Rosen. [ 91 ] Cooper spent three years researching the novel and travelled on tour to Spain, twice, with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra (RSNO). [ 91 ] The novel was a bestseller, and a soundtrack to the novel was released in parallel to the book. [ 92 ] [ 93 ] Reviews were mixed, with praise for Cooper's research [ 93 ] balanced by suggestions that the cast of characters was too large and contrived plots. [ 94 ] [ 95 ] Cooper remained largely in the world of classical music for her next novel, Score! , but this time focussing on a production of the opera Don Carlos . [ 86 ] In it Rannaldini is directing a film of the production, but is murdered on set, leading to a police investigation. [ 96 ] The novel was a Number 1 bestseller upon its release. The book received mixed reviews, [ 97 ] [ 86 ] as well as the accusation that at some moments the book seemed to suggest "that the death of a dog is rather more grief-worthy than the death of a human". [ 98 ] Her following novel Pandora was set in the art world, [ 99 ] and followed the Belvedon family of dealers and artists, based in the neighbouring county of Larkshire. [ 100 ] Reviewing the novel in The Observer , Robert Macfarlane described how it depicted and lampooned Britart , conceptual art and the Turner Prize . [ 99 ] This theme was continued by the New Statesman , where a reviewer described one scene where a woman who is raped is also menstruating as "very Jake and Dinos Chapman ". [ 101 ] The next volume in the series was Wicked! which was published in 2006 and was set in a boarding school, going to No. 1 in the fiction charts on its release. [ 102 ] [ 103 ] The novel had mixed reviews with some writers sharing unease at the depictions of teenage sex and romance. [ 104 ] [ 86 ] The Guardian stated that running at over 800 pages, the book needed a thorough edit since it was "as long as Anna Karenina and that, surely, is a mistake". [ 105 ] Returning to the world of horses, the ninth novel Jump! was released in 2010. [ 106 ] It features characters from the Rutshire Chronicles in the world of National Hunt steeplechase racing and tells the transformation of a mutilated horse (Mrs Wilkinson) into a successful racehorse. [ 106 ] After publication, it was revealed that Cooper had named a goat in the book (Chisolm) in order to hit back at the critic Anne Chisholm. [ 107 ] The tenth novel in the series Jump! was set in the world of flat racing . [ 108 ] Whilst Cooper's descriptions of the Cotswolds and her descriptions of racing were praised, some reviewers criticised the characterisation and "depraved and ridiculous" sex scenes. [ 109 ] [ 110 ] [ 111 ] The eleventh book in the series was Tackle! , published in 2023 it was set in the world of football. [ 112 ] It was named by The Week as one of the best novels of 2023. [ 113 ] The novel features Rupert Campbell-Black becoming the director of a local football club, based on Cooper's local side Forest Green Rovers . [ 114 ] [ 115 ] The sexual content of the novel received mixed reviews, with praise for the oral sex featured, but dismay that other scenes felt "lacklustre". [ 116 ] Little Mabel series Cooper also wrote a series of four children's books based on the misadventures of a young mongrel puppy called Mabel. [ 117 ] The Little Mabel series comprised Little Mabel, Little Mabel's Great Escape, Little Mabel Wins and Little Mabel Saves the Day. [ 117 ] When interviewed in 2013 to discuss the inclusion of a new class for mongrels at Crufts , Cooper described her book Little Mabel Wins as "prophetic" since it featured a protest against mongrel discrimination at that dog show. [ 118 ] Two of the books featured in the British children's television series Jackanory , read by Victoria Wood and Liza Goddard . [ 119 ] [ 120 ] Personal life In 1961, she married Leo Cooper , a publisher of military history books. [ 121 ] The couple had met when she was aged eight and Cooper aged 10, although they did not marry until she was 24 and he was 27. [ 122 ] [ 3 ] The couple adopted two children and had five grandchildren. [ 123 ] [ 124 ] In 1982, the couple left Putney , south-west London, for an old manor house near Stroud , Gloucestershire. [ 121 ] [ 125 ] As she told The Field in 2002, "I loved London, but I used to cry because I missed the countryside. We did the usual married run: Earl’s Court ; Fulham ; Putney ; Move To The Country." [ 126 ] The Coopers' marriage was greatly disrupted in 1990 when publisher Sarah Johnson revealed that she and Leo had had an affair for several years. [ 127 ] [ 128 ] Leo was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2002. He died on 29 November 2013, at the age of 80. [ 121 ] In 2010, Cooper [ which? ] suffered a minor stroke. [ 129 ] Cooper was a passenger in one of the derailed carriages in the Ladbroke Grove rail crash of 1999, in which 31 people died, [ 123 ] and crawled through a window to escape. She later spoke of feeling that her "number was up". [ 3 ] Cooper was a supporter of the Conservative Party , [ 130 ] and was also in favour of the Iraq War (2003 to 2011). [ 131 ] In a 2007 interview with The Guardian she said, "I loved Mrs Thatcher , I adored her, she was very very nice to me". [ 132 ] By 2012, however, she had grown disillusioned with the Conservatives, telling The Spectator that she was "disappointed with this government" and that the party was "full of terrible people now". [ 133 ] In 2018 Cooper said that because of the #MeToo movement , young men and women no longer feel free to flirt with one another and that she enjoyed being the subject of wolf whistles . [ 134 ] Cooper stated that she was a football fan and supported Leeds United when she lived in Yorkshire. [ 135 ] She was also a Manchester City fan. [ 136 ] Cooper campaigned for the preservation of limestone grasslands in Gloucestershire with the Trust for Nature Conservation. [ 137 ] Death and tributes On 4 October 2025, Cooper was attended to by paramedics after suffering a fall at her home in Bisley , Gloucestershire, which caused a fatal head injury. She was transported to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital , where her condition deteriorated. She died there on 5 October, aged 88, surrounded by family. [ 138 ] Queen Camilla , a long-term friend, led the tributes to Cooper, describing her as a legend and a "wonderfully witty and compassionate friend to me and so many", adding: "May her hereafter be filled with impossibly handsome men and devoted dogs." [ 139 ] The official spokesman of the prime minister, Keir Starmer , said: "Dame Jilly Cooper was a literary force whose wit, warmth and wisdom shaped British culture for over half a century and brought joy to millions." Famously a fan of Cooper's novels, former prime minister Rishi Sunak wrote on X : "Sad to hear of the passing of Dame Jilly Cooper, a storyteller whose wit and love of character brought joy to millions. My thoughts are with her family and fellow readers." [ 140 ] Others paying tribute to Cooper included comedian Helen Lederer , who wrote on X: "Trail blazer, wit, optimist and the giver of the greatest summer parties – you made it look simple." Broadcaster Gyles Brandreth wrote that she was "simply adorable". [ 141 ] Television presenter Kirstie Allsopp said Cooper was "a British institution, funny, enthusiastic and self deprecating, we don't see enough of it these days". [ 142 ] Piers Morgan posted: "Such a fabulously fun, mischievous, warm-hearted lady. If she was in a room, everyone would feel instantly cheerier." [ 142 ] Fellow broadcaster Russell Grant wrote on X: "Jilly was one of the most kind, courteous, generous, warm-hearted and smiley people I ever met when I worked on breakfast and morning TV." [ 143 ] Actress Dame Joanna Lumley , who starred in Cooper's early 1970s sitcom It's Awfully Bad for Your Eyes, Darling , told BBC News: "She was entirely generous, hugely talented, prolific, enthusiastic, meticulous and wholly loveable: a darling friend and a brilliant person." [ 144 ] A number of authors have also recognised her and her legacy, including Jill Mansell who credited Cooper for inspiring her to be a writer. The Australian-British author Kathy Lette said: "A twinkle has gone out of the world." [ 144 ] Author and former doctor Adam Kay recalled being Cooper's "perhaps unlikely penpal", adding: "We have lost one of the greats." [ 139 ] Honours, awards and recognition Cooper was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2004 Birthday Honours for services to literature, Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 2018 New Year Honours for services to literature and charity and Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire (DBE) in the 2024 New Year Honours for services to literature and charity. [ 145 ] On 13 November 2009, Cooper was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Letters by the University of Gloucestershire at a ceremony in Gloucester Cathedral . [ 146 ] In 2011, She was also awarded an Honorary Doctor of Letters at Anglia Ruskin University . [ 147 ] In 2024 she was named Harper's Bazaar ' s Author of the Year. [ 148 ] In 1997 local councillors in Ilkley , West Yorkshire, rejected a housing developers' proposal to name a street after Cooper. [ 149 ] Located on the site of the tennis courts of Ilkley Hall, where Cooper spent some of her childhood, the street was ultimately named after Thomas Maufe , who was awarded a Victoria Cross . Cooper stated that "[Maufe] is much more deserving than me." [ 149 ] A racehorse was named after Cooper, but it had to be euthanised in 2024 after a racing accident. [ 150 ] [ 151 ] In 2025, the Jilly Cooper Prize was established as part of the Comedy Women in Print Awards to honour her contribution to comic fiction. [ 152 ] The prize recognises works of fiction by women and non-binary authors that demonstrate a distinctive sense of humour, irreverence, and comic narrative voice. The award was introduced following Cooper’s death in 2024, with the intention of acknowledging her influence on contemporary comic fiction and her long-standing reputation for comedic prose, romantic satire, and portrayals of British high society. [ 153 ] The inaugural winner of the prize was Sara Pascoe , who received the award in 2025 for her novel Weirdo . [ 154 ] Film and television productions Screenwriting and appearances In 1971 Cooper wrote the comedy series It's Awfully Bad for Your Eyes, Darling with Christopher Bond , about four posh young women sharing a flat in London, featuring Joanna Lumley and airing on BBC1 . [ 155 ] [ 156 ] In the 1980s she was a regular guest on the BBC television programme What's My Line? [ 157 ] According to a 2016 interview with Cooper, she was also the subject of a Spitting Image puppet, whose only line was "Sex sex sex sex sex sex". [ 5 ] Adaptations Romance series Emily was adapted by Eleanor Bron for Thames Television in 1976 as part of a six-part romance series. [ 158 ] [ 159 ] Directed by Alastair Reid , [ 160 ] it was broadcast on 6 April 1977. [ 161 ] Prudence was adapted for radio in 1979 by Capital Radio , starring Felicity Kendal as Prudence, [ 162 ] alongside Nigel Davenport and Gerald Harper . [ 163 ] In 2007 a television adaptation of four of the romance novels was proposed. [ 164 ] This was suggested as one of a four-part series focusing on Harriet , Bella , Octavia and one unspecified; the only episode to be filmed was Octavia . [ 164 ] The screenplay was written by Jonathan Harvey . [ 165 ] As of 2009 there was no date for its screening. [ 166 ] In 2013 The Telegraph reported that Harriet was being adapted into a musical by Eva Rice, novelist and daughter of Tim Rice . [ 167 ] Rutshire Chronicles Television adaptations of Cooper's novels were produced for ITV and Disney+. Other productions include the television mini-series The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous , starring Hugh Bonneville , produced by Sarah Lawson ; Riders ; [ 168 ] and, in 2024, Rivals , starring David Tennant , Aidan Turner and Alex Hassell , produced by Eliza Mellor. [ 169 ] The latter was renewed for a second series, which is expected to be released in 2026. [ 170 ] Analysis Cooper has been identified as one of the key writers of the bonkbuster novel, along with Jackie Collins , Shirley Conran and Judith Krantz . [ 70 ] Riders in particular is seen as a key text for the genre, embodying its themes of sex (sometimes coercive) and romance (sometimes unfulfilled). [ 70 ] Indeed, academic Emma Parker has described how the novel "exemplified" the genre. [ 171 ] Ian Patterson , writing for the London Review of Books is one of the few academics to seriously consider Cooper's literary oeuvre. [ 172 ] In his critique of her work, Patterson described how Cooper had a "propensity for subplots worthy of Trollope or Dickens". [ 97 ] Moreover, that her books are "worth thinking about" because they cover "pleasure, that most ticklish of subjects". [ 97 ] Patterson goes on to describe the themes of pleasure that Cooper deals with: "pleasure delayed and deferred, guilty pleasure, the pleasure of repetition and the problems of it", as well as "good pleasures, in various degrees, wrong but permissible pleasures, and unequivocally bad pleasures". [ 97 ] He praised Cooper's use of language, in particular "puns and other forms of verbal humour", which give the reader the impression that Cooper, as writer, is never far away. [ 97 ] On the Romance series, Patterson described the novels as "tightly structured, agreeably predictable wish-fulfilment narratives named for their heroines". [ 97 ] Beyond Cooper's novels, Patterson praised her portrait of Margaret Thatcher, and her Sunday Times columns. [ 97 ] Patterson compared Cooper to Ali Smith since in their writing they share a "fondness for both wordplay and wise children". [ 97 ] Cooper's use of humour as part of erotic writing has been discussed by Tim Miles, who described how there was "is little or no separation" of the two, especially in Riders. [ 173 ] In his analysis of the career of Mary Ward , academic Alan Deyermond describes how she was described as "the Jilly Cooper of her day", which became part of her professional denigration. [ 174 ] Cooper's use of horses as a repeated trope across many of her novels has been considered by academic Gail Cunningham, who described how Riders and Polo provided "women readers with an adult version of the pony book ".

At least 19 people are now believed to have died in recent weeks in South Africa due to floods caused by torrential rain. Among those killed was a five-year-old boy in the town of Giyani, in Limpopo. President Cyril Ramaphosa met the child's family to offer his condolences while visiting the region to assess the damage. A red level 10 warning has been issued by the South African Weather Service, forecasting yet more rain in affected areas and warning communities to remain alert. "If possible stay indoors and off the roads," it advises. "Never drive on a road covered by water. If the vehicle stalls, leave it immediately and seek higher ground." Residents are also advised to move their valuables to a "safe place above the expected flood level", switch off their electricity at the source, and to move livestock to higher ground. In recent days helicopters and the military have been deployed to rescue people in some of the worst-affected areas. The Reuters news agency reports that flooding in south-eastern Africa has become more frequent and severe as climate change makes storms in the adjacent Indian Ocean more powerful.

His accolades include a Primetime Emmy Award and two Golden Globe Awards , in addition to nominations for an Academy Award and a BAFTA Award . In 2016, Keaton received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and was named Officer of Order of Arts and Letters in France. [ 1 ] Keaton gained early recognition for his comedic roles in Night Shift (1982), Mr. Mom (1983), and Beetlejuice (1988). He gained wider stardom portraying the titular superhero in Batman (1989) and Batman Returns (1992).

He also voiced roles in Cars (2006), Toy Story 3 (2010), and Minions (2015). Keaton experienced a career resurgence portraying a faded actor attempting a comeback in Alejandro González Iñárritu 's Birdman (2014), for which he won a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor and a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor . He has since acted in biographical dramas such as Spotlight (2015), The Founder (2016), The Trial of the Chicago 7 (2020), and Worth (2021).

Early life Michael John Douglas, the youngest of seven children, was born at Ohio Valley Hospital in Kennedy Township, Pennsylvania , [ 2 ] on September 5, 1951. [ 3 ] He was raised between McKees Rocks , [ 4 ] Coraopolis and Robinson Township, Pennsylvania . [ 5 ] [ 6 ] His father, George A. Douglas (1905–1977), worked as a civil engineer and surveyor , and his mother, Leona Elizabeth ( née Loftus; 1909–2002), was a homemaker, and came from McKees Rocks. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] Keaton was raised in a Catholic family. [ 9 ] He said he liked going to Catholic school and being an altar boy, and the school shaped who he was. [ 10 ] His mother was of Irish descent, [ 9 ] [ 11 ] [ 12 ] while his father was of Scottish , Scotch-Irish , German and English ancestry, and was originally from a Protestant family. [ 13 ] [ 14 ] Keaton attended Montour High School in Robinson Township, Pennsylvania. [ 15 ] He graduated with the class of 1969, and studied speech for two years at Kent State University , where he appeared in plays, and returned to Pennsylvania to pursue his career. [ 16 ] Career 1975–1988: Early career and breakthrough Keaton first appeared on television in the Pittsburgh public television programs Where the Heart Is and Mister Rogers' Neighborhood (1975). For Mister Rogers he played one of the "Flying Zucchini Brothers" [ 17 ] and served as a full-time production assistant. [ 18 ] (In 2003, after Fred Rogers ' death, Keaton hosted a PBS memorial tribute, Fred Rogers: America's Favorite Neighbor ; [ 19 ] in 2018, he hosted a 50th anniversary special of the series for PBS, Mister Rogers: It's You I Like . [ 20 ] ) Keaton also worked as an actor in Pittsburgh theatre ; he played the role of Rick in the Pittsburgh premiere of David Rabe 's Sticks and Bones with the Pittsburgh Poor Players. [ 21 ] He also performed stand-up comedy during his early years to supplement his income. [ 22 ] Keaton left Pittsburgh and moved to Los Angeles to begin auditioning for various television parts. He popped up in various popular television shows including Maude and The Mary Tyler Moore Hour . He decided to use a stage name to satisfy SAG rules, as there were already an actor ( Michael Douglas ) and daytime host ( Mike Douglas ) with the same or similar names. In response to questions as to whether he selected his new surname due to an attraction to actress Diane Keaton , or in homage to silent film actor Buster Keaton , he has responded by saying "it had nothing to do with that". [ 23 ] [ 24 ] Keaton searched a phone book under "K", saw "Keaton" and decided to stop looking. [ 25 ] [ 26 ] Keaton's film debut came in a small non-speaking role in the Joan Rivers film Rabbit Test (1978). [ 27 ] His next big break was working alongside Jim Belushi in the short-lived comedy series Working Stiffs , which showcased his comedic talent and led to a co-starring role in the comedy Night Shift (1982) directed by Ron Howard . This was his breakout role as the fast-talking schemer Bill "Billy Blaze" Blazejowski and earned Keaton some critical acclaim. [ 28 ] Night Shift led to Keaton becoming a leading man in the 1983 comedy hit Mr. Mom . Keaton was pigeonholed as a comic lead during this time with films like Johnny Dangerously (1984), Gung Ho (1986), The Squeeze (1987), and The Dream Team (1989), though Keaton tried to transition to dramatic leads as early as 1984, playing a hockey player in Touch and Go , which was shelved until 1986. Woody Allen cast Keaton as the lead in The Purple Rose of Cairo the following year, but after filming began Allen felt Keaton was "too modern" and reshot his scenes with Jeff Daniels in the final film, further delaying his transition to drama in the public eye. [ 29 ] When Touch and Go was finally released in 1986 the studio was still unsure of how to market the film, making the poster, trailer and TV spots similar to Mr. Mom , which resulted in the film not finding its target audience. 1988 was a seminal year in Keaton's career, in which he landed two major unconventional roles, forever changing his image to audiences. He played the title character in Tim Burton 's horror-comedy Beetlejuice , earning Keaton widespread acclaim and boosting him to Hollywood's A list. That same year, he also gave an acclaimed dramatic performance as a drug-addicted realtor in Glenn Gordon Caron 's Clean and Sober . [ 30 ] 1989–1999: Established actor Keaton's career was given another major boost when he was again cast by Tim Burton, this time as the title comic book superhero of the 1989 film Batman . [ 31 ] [ 32 ] Warner Bros. received thousands of written complaints from fans who believed Keaton was the wrong choice to portray Batman. [ 33 ] However, Keaton's performance in the role ultimately earned widespread acclaim from both critics and audiences, [ 34 ] and Batman became one of 1989's most successful films. [ 35 ] According to Les Daniels 's reference book Batman: The Complete History , Keaton initially believed the film would be similar in tone to the 1960s TV series starring Adam West . However, after reading Frank Miller 's comic book miniseries The Dark Knight Returns , he understood the darker, more brooding side of Batman that Burton's adaptation was going for, which he portrayed to much fan approval. [ 36 ] Keaton later reprised the role for the sequel Batman Returns (1992), which was another critically acclaimed success. [ 37 ] He was initially set to reprise the role again for a third Batman film, even going as far as to show up for costume fitting. However, when Burton was dropped as director of the film, Keaton left the franchise as well. He was reportedly dissatisfied with the screenplay approved by the new director, Joel Schumacher . According to the A&E Biography episode on Keaton, after he had refused the first time (after meetings with Schumacher), Warner Bros. offered him $15 million, but Keaton steadfastly refused and was replaced by Val Kilmer in Batman Forever (1995). [ 38 ] Keaton remained active during the 1990s, appearing in a wide range of films, including Pacific Heights (1990), One Good Cop (1991), My Life (1993) and the star-studded Shakespearean story Much Ado About Nothing (1993). He starred in The Paper (1994) and Multiplicity (1996), and twice in the same role, that of Elmore Leonard character Agent Ray Nicolette, in the films Jackie Brown (1997) and Out of Sight (1998). He made the family holiday movie Jack Frost (1998) and the thriller Desperate Measures (1998). Keaton starred as a political candidate's speechwriter in 1994's Speechless . [ 39 ] 2000–2013: Limited roles and venture into voice acting In the early 2000s, Keaton appeared in several films with mixed success, including Live From Baghdad (2002, for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe award [ 40 ] ), First Daughter (2004, playing the President of the United States), White Noise (2005) and Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005). While he continued to receive good notices from the critics (particularly for Jackie Brown ), he was not able to re-approach the box-office success of Batman until the release of Disney / Pixar 's Cars (2006), in which he voiced Chick Hicks , a green race car with a mustache, who frequently loses his patience with losing to his longtime rival, Strip Weathers, a.k.a. The King, voiced by Richard Petty . On New Year's Day of 2004, he hosted the PBS television special Mr. Rogers: America's Favorite Neighbor . It was released by Triumph Marketing LLC on DVD September 28, 2004. In 2006, he starred in Game 6 , about the 1986 World Series bid by the Boston Red Sox . He had a cameo in the Tenacious D short film Time Fixers , an iTunes exclusive. The 9-minute film was released to coincide with Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny . [ 41 ] Keaton reportedly was cast as Jack Shephard in the series Lost , with the understanding that the role of Jack would be a brief one. Once the role was retooled to be a long-running series regular, Keaton withdrew. The part was then given to actor Matthew Fox . The show ran for six seasons, with the Shephard role continuing throughout. [ 42 ] Keaton starred in the 2007 television miniseries The Company , set during the Cold War , in which he portrayed the real-life CIA counterintelligence chief James Jesus Angleton . The role garnered Keaton a 2008 Screen Actors Guild nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Television Movie or Miniseries. [ 43 ] Keaton provided the voice of Ken in Toy Story 3 (2010). The film received overwhelmingly positive acclaim and grossed over $1 billion worldwide, making it one of the most financially successful films ever. [ 44 ] He played Captain Gene Mauch in the comedy The Other Guys (2010). 2014–2019: Renewed critical success In 2014 he played the OmniCorp CEO Raymond Sellars in the RoboCop remake as a more active antagonist, taking RoboCop's wife and child hostage, forcing Joel Kinnaman 's character to struggle to overcome the 4th directive. [ 45 ] Keaton starred alongside Zach Galifianakis , Edward Norton , Emma Stone , and Naomi Watts in Alejandro González Iñárritu 's Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014), playing Riggan Thomson, a screen actor, famous for playing the titular superhero, who puts on a Broadway play based on a Raymond Carver short story to regain his former glory. [ 46 ] He won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy for his portrayal of Thomson and received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor . [ 47 ] In 2015, Keaton appeared as Walter V. Robinson in Tom McCarthy 's Academy Award-winning film Spotlight , and in 2016, he starred as businessman Ray Kroc in the biopic The Founder . On July 28, 2016, Keaton was honored with the 2,585th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his contributions to film. The star is located at 6931 Hollywood Blvd. [ 48 ] In 2017, Keaton played the supervillain the Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming . While making this film Keaton was unable to reprise the role of Chick Hicks for Disney and Pixar 's Cars 3 and was replaced by Bob Peterson . [ 49 ] [ 50 ] Later that year, Keaton portrayed Stan Hurley in American Assassin . In 2019, he played the villain in Disney's live-action adaptation of Dumbo directed by Tim Burton, co-starring with Colin Farrell and Eva Green . [ 51 ] Keaton later said: "I was clueless on Dumbo . I sucked in Dumbo ." [ 52 ] 2020–present: Continued acclaim and reprising past roles In 2020, Keaton appeared in a small role as U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark in The Trial of the Chicago 7 , a legal drama directed by Aaron Sorkin about seven anti-Vietnam protesters charged with inciting riots in 1968. [ 53 ] In 2021, Keaton starred as American lawyer Kenneth Feinberg in the Netflix biographical drama film Worth . [ 54 ] He then starred in the Hulu miniseries Dopesick . He won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Miniseries or Television Movie and Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for his role. [ 55 ] Keaton cites his performance in 1988's Clean and Sober as an early preparation for Dopesick . [ 56 ] In 2022, he briefly reprised his role as Vulture in the Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU) film Morbius , [ 57 ] which released on April 1, 2022. In 2023, Keaton reprised his role as Batman/Bruce Wayne, after last playing the role in 1992, in the DC Extended Universe superhero film The Flash . [ 58 ] [ 59 ] [ 60 ] He filmed scenes to reprise the character in Batgirl starring Leslie Grace , set for a release on HBO Max , [ 61 ] taking some inspiration from the acclaimed DC Animated Universe animated series Batman Beyond with Keaton playing the elder Bruce Wayne as the title character's mentor and remote coordinator in the Batcave, [ 62 ] only for the film's release to be cancelled in August 2022. [ 63 ] Keaton stated that he did not care about that decision because he had made money making the film, though he said he felt badly for the film's directors. [ 64 ] He also reprised the character in the 2023 film Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom , in an ultimately deleted scene . [ 65 ] Keaton also starred in and directed the 2023 noir thriller Knox Goes Away . [ 66 ] In 2024, Keaton reprised his role as Beetlejuice for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice . [ 67 ] [ 68 ] [ 69 ] Keaton next starred in Goodrich , a film about a man whose second wife suddenly leaves him, forcing him to take sole care of their nine-year-old twins. Directed by Hallie Meyers-Shyer , filming was set to commence in October 2019, [ 70 ] [ 71 ] but after a delay ultimately began in April 2023. On April 16, 2025, it was reported that Keaton would be joining the cast of the Netflix and AGBO adaptation of the Alex North novel The Whisper Man . [ 72 ] Personal life Marriage and family Keaton was married to Caroline McWilliams from 1982 to 1990. They have a son, Sean , born in 1983. [ 73 ] Through their son, Keaton and McWilliams have two grandchildren. [ 74 ] Keaton had a relationship with actress Courteney Cox from 1990 to 1995. [ 75 ] He has been in a relationship with Marni Turner since 2016. [ 76 ] Interests Keaton, a longtime Pittsburgh resident and fan of its sports teams, negotiated a break in his Batman movie contract in case the Pittsburgh Pirates made the playoffs that year, although they ultimately did not. Keaton did, however, take time off from filming the sequel Batman Returns in order to return to Pittsburgh to support the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 1991 Stanley Cup Finals. Keaton has been seen regularly at Penguins home playoff games. Keaton also often attends Pittsburgh Steelers games and, during the 2005 AFC Championship Game , he wandered onto the camera frame of the KDKA pregame coverage, surprising reporter John Steigerwald .

[ 82 ] Despite his political activism during the 2020 election, Keaton later stated that celebrities should not speak about politics.

Ann an dealbh-sgrìobhadh na h-Èipheite, sgrìobhar ainm mar Amen-tut-ankh a ghnàth an cois gnàthas an luchd-sgrìobhaidh a chuireadh ainm dè aig toiseach abairt mar urram dhan dia. Dh'fhaoidte gur esan an neach air a bheil Nibhurrereya ann an litrichean Amarna agus tha deagh-choltas gur esan Rìgh Rathotis 18mh rìoghrachas na h-Èipheit a bha a’ riaghlaidh, a-rèir an eachdraidhe Manetho, fad naoidh bliadhna, faid a tha a-rèir an tionndaidh dhen Epitome aig Manetho a sgrìobh Flavius Josephus. Chaidh tuama Tutankhamun a lorg le Howard Carter agus Iarla Chaernarfon ann an 1922 agus leis gun robh e cha mhòr gun mhilleadh, ’s e naidheachd mhòr a bha ann air feadh an t-saoghail. Dhùisg e ùidh am measg nan daoine san Èipheit àrsaidh a-rithist agus tha aghaidh-choimheach Tutankhamun (ri fhaicinn ann an Taigh-tasgaidh na h-Èipheit) ainmeil air feadh an t-saoghail fhathast. Chaidh buill-ealain às an tuam a thaisbeanadh dhan phoball air feadh an t-saoghail thairis air na bliadhnaichean. Chaidh rannsachadh DNA a dhèanamh air agus sheall an rannsachadh sa Ghearran 2010 gur esan mac Akhenaten (mumaidh KV55). Bu mhumaidh KV35YL (is chan eil fhios dè an t-ainm a bha oirre) an dà chuid piuthair agus bean Akhenaten. A dh’aindeoin sin, tha cinnt gur ise am mumaidh air a bheil a’ Bhaintighearna Òg a chaidh a lorg san tuama KV35. A chionn ’s gun do chaochail grunnan dhe na daoine a rannsaich tuama Tutankhamun air dòigh caran "annasach", tha cuid am measg an t-sluaigh dhen bheachd gun do chaochail iad ri linn mallachd nam phàraoh. ...leugh an corr San latha an-diugh Manuel Azaña Díaz 'S e 10 am Faoilleach an deicheamh latha dhen bhliadhna . 1778 – Chaochail Carl Linnaeus , rannsachair bith-eòlas ann an Uppsala . 1880 – Rugadh Manuel Azaña Díaz , fear-poileataigs, ann an Alcalá de Henares . 1938 – Rugadh Donald Knuth , eòlaiche coimpiutair ann am Milwaukee. 1957 – Chaochail Gabriela Mistral , bàrd às an t-Sile . 1985 – Bhuannaich Claude Simon an Duais Nobel ann an Litreachas . 1997 – Rugadh Lord Alexander R.

We claim that the distinctive nature of LLMs--namely, their initialization with extensive pre-trained knowledge and implicit social priors, together with their capability of adaptation through in-context learning--motivates the need for an interactionist paradigm consisting of alternative theoretical foundations, methodologies, and analytical tools, in order to systematically examine how prior knowledge and embedded values interact with social context to shape emergent phenomena in multi-agent generative AI systems. We propose and discuss four directions that we consider crucial for the development and deployment of LLM-based collectives, focusing on theory, methods, and trans-disciplinary dialogue.

China is expected to lower levies on Canadian canola oil from 85% to 15% by 1 March, while Ottawa has agreed to tax Chinese electric vehicles at the most-favoured-nation rate, 6.1%, Carney told reporters. The deal is a breakthrough after years of strained ties and tit-for-tat levies. Xi hailed the "turnaround" in their relationship but it is also a win for Carney, the first Canadian leader to visit China in nearly a decade. He has been trying to diversify Canadian trade away from the US, his country's biggest trading partner, following the uncertainty caused by Trump's on-again-off-again tariffs. The deal could also see more Chinese investments in Canada, right on America's doorstep. Carney himself seemed to allude to the fact that this was a result of Trump's tariffs, which have now pushed one of the US's key allies towards its biggest rival. He told reporters that Canada's relationship with China had been more "predictable" in recent month and that he found talks with Beijing "realistic and respectful". He also made clear Ottawa does not agree with Beijing on everything, adding that in his discussions with Xi he made clear Canada's "red lines", including human rights, concerns over election interference and the need for "guardrails". Observers believe Carney's visit could set an example for other countries across the world who are also feeling the pain from Washington's tariffs. In contrast, Xi has been trying to show that China is a stable global partner and has been urging more pragmatic ties - in the words of Beijing, "a win-win" for all. And it seems to be working. The South Korean president and the Irish prime minister have both visited Beijing in recent weeks. The UK prime minister is expected to visit soon and so is the German Chancellor. Carney said the "world has changed dramatically" and how Canada positions itself "will shape our future for decades to come," he added. Earlier in his three-day visit, he had said that the Canada-China partnership sets the two countries up for a "new world order". He later added that the multilateral system had been "eroded, to use a polite term, or undercut". As the Chinese and Canadian delegations sat down in the Great Hall of the People on Friday, Xi said: "The healthy and stable development of China-Canada relations is conducive to world peace, stability, development, and prosperity." Getty Images Carney in the Great Hall of the People during the meeting with Xi A trade reset Tariffs have been a key sticking point between the two sides. In 2024, Canada imposed 100% tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, following similar US curbs. Last year, Beijing retaliated with tariffs on more than $2bn (£1.5bn) of Canadian farm and food products like canola seed and oil. As a result Chinese imports of Canadian goods fell by 10% in 2025. China is Canada's second-largest trading partner, recording more than C$118bn ($85bn; £63bn) in two-way merchandise trade in 2024. That's a long way behind the US, Canada's closest ally, which traded more than $761bn (£568bn) worth of goods with Ottawa in 2024. But economic ties with China are increasingly important for Carney, who said ahead of his visit that Canada was focused on building a "more competitive, sustainable and independent economy" in the face of "global trade disruption". Carney, who arrived in Beijing on Wednesday, met senior executives from prominent Chinese businesses, including an electric vehicle battery maker and an energy giant. On Thursday the two countries signed several agreements on energy and trade cooperation. The visit is a "reset of a relationship" that may be "modest in ambition" but "much more realistic about what we can reasonably obtain", said Colin Robertson, a former Canadian diplomat and vice-president at the Canadian Global Affairs Institute. A frosty history The last Canadian PM to visit China was Justin Trudeau, who met Xi in Beijing in 2017. That visit took place before the relationship soured in 2018, following Canada's arrest of Meng Wanzhou, the chief financial officer at the Chinese tech giant Huawai, at the request of the US. Days later, China detained Canadian citizens Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor on espionage charges - a move critics saw as retaliation for Meng's arrest, which China denied. Meng and both Michaels were released in 2021. Ahead of the Carney-Xi meeting, Michael Kovrig wrote on X that the visit should not just be about warming ties but also "managing leverage". Kovrig described Chinese negotiators as "extremely adroit, calculating, and always looking for leverage". "That's why engagement has to be handled with discipline," he wrote, adding that Carney should also advocate for Canadians imprisoned in China. There are about 100 of them, according to Canadian media. Speaking to reporters, Carney was clear that with countries that do not share the same values, Ottawa will engage on a "narrower, more specific" manner. "We're very clear about where we cooperate, where we differ," he said, adding that Chinese claims over self-governed Taiwan and Hong Kong's jailed pro-democracy figure Jimmy Lai came up in "broad discussions". Canada and China have "different systems", he said, which limits the breadth of their cooperation. "But to have an effective relationship, we have direct conversations. We don't grab a megaphone and have the conversations that way."

In contrast, Xi has been trying to show that China is a stable global partner and has been urging more pragmatic ties - in the words of Beijing, "a win-win" for all. And it seems to be working. The South Korean president and the Irish prime minister have both visited Beijing in recent weeks. The UK prime minister is expected to visit soon and so is the German Chancellor. Carney said the "world has changed dramatically" and how Canada positions itself "will shape our future for decades to come," he added. Earlier in his three-day visit, he had said that the Canada-China partnership sets the two countries up for a "new world order". He later added that the multilateral system had been "eroded, to use a polite term, or undercut". As the Chinese and Canadian delegations sat down in the Great Hall of the People on Friday, Xi said: "The healthy and stable development of China-Canada relations is conducive to world peace, stability, development, and prosperity." A trade reset Tariffs have been a key sticking point between the two sides. In 2024, Canada imposed 100% tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, following similar US curbs. Last year, Beijing retaliated with tariffs on more than $2bn (£1.5bn) of Canadian farm and food products like canola seed and oil. As a result Chinese imports of Canadian goods fell by 10% in 2025. China is Canada's second-largest trading partner, recording more than C$118bn ($85bn; £63bn) in two-way merchandise trade in 2024. That's a long way behind the US, Canada's closest ally, which traded more than $761bn (£568bn) worth of goods with Ottawa in 2024. But economic ties with China are increasingly important for Carney, who said ahead of his visit that Canada was focused on building a "more competitive, sustainable and independent economy" in the face of "global trade disruption". Carney, who arrived in Beijing on Wednesday, met senior executives from prominent Chinese businesses, including an electric vehicle battery maker and an energy giant. On Thursday the two countries signed several agreements on energy and trade cooperation. The visit is a "reset of a relationship" that may be "modest in ambition" but "much more realistic about what we can reasonably obtain", said Colin Robertson, a former Canadian diplomat and vice-president at the Canadian Global Affairs Institute. A frosty history The last Canadian PM to visit China was Justin Trudeau, who met Xi in Beijing in 2017. That visit took place before the relationship soured in 2018, following Canada's arrest of Meng Wanzhou, the chief financial officer at the Chinese tech giant Huawai, at the request of the US. Days later, China detained Canadian citizens Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor on espionage charges - a move critics saw as retaliation for Meng's arrest, which China denied. Meng and both Michaels were released in 2021. Ahead of the Carney-Xi meeting, Michael Kovrig wrote on X that the visit should not just be about warming ties but also "managing leverage". Kovrig described Chinese negotiators as "extremely adroit, calculating, and always looking for leverage". "That's why engagement has to be handled with discipline," he wrote, adding that Carney should also advocate for Canadians imprisoned in China. There are about 100 of them, according to Canadian media. Speaking to reporters, Carney was clear that with countries that do not share the same values, Ottawa will engage on a "narrower, more specific" manner. "We're very clear about where we cooperate, where we differ," he said, adding that Chinese claims over self-governed Taiwan and Hong Kong's jailed pro-democracy figure Jimmy Lai came up in "broad discussions". Canada and China have "different systems", he said, which limits the breadth of their cooperation. "But to have an effective relationship, we have direct conversations. We don't grab a megaphone and have the conversations that way."

[ 1 ] [ 2 ] He was the creator of the Dilbert comic strip and nonfiction works of business, self-improvement, commentary, and satire . Adams worked in various corporate roles before he became a full-time cartoonist in 1995. By the mid-1990s, Dilbert , created in 1989, had gained national prominence in the United States and began to reach a worldwide audience, remaining popular throughout the following decades and spawning several books written by Adams. In the mid-2010s, Adams emerged as an independent commentator on events and politics. He wrote in a satirical way about the social and psychological landscape of white-collar workers in corporations. In addition, Adams wrote books in various other areas, including the pandeistic spiritual novella God's Debris and books on political and management topics, including Loserthink . In February 2023, Dilbert was dropped by numerous newspapers and its distributor, Andrews McMeel Syndication , after Adams made racist comments on his Real Coffee YouTube channel, which he defended as hyperbole . He relaunched it as a webcomic on his Locals website one month later and continued to be active on social media. He died in 2026, at the age of 68, of prostate cancer . Early life and education Scott Raymond Adams was born on June 8, 1957, [ 3 ] in Windham, New York , to Paul and Virginia (née Vining) Adams. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] He said that he was "about half German" [ 6 ] and had English, Irish, Welsh, Scottish, and Dutch ancestry. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] In 2016, he said he had a small amount of Native American ancestry, [ 9 ] but later discovered via 23andMe genetic testing that he has no detectable Native American genetic markers. [ 10 ] He was a fan of Peanuts comics while growing up and began drawing comics at age 6. [ 11 ] He won a drawing competition at 11. [ 11 ] Adams graduated from Windham-Ashland-Jewett Central School in Windham in 1975 and was the valedictorian of his class of 39 students. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in economics from Hartwick College in Oneonta, New York , in 1979. [ 12 ] He then moved to California and worked there. [ 11 ] In 1986, he earned a Master of Business Administration from the University of California, Berkeley . [ 13 ] Adams took Dale Carnegie Training courses and called them "life changing". [ 14 ] Career Office worker Adams worked closely with telecommunications engineers at Crocker National Bank in San Francisco between 1979 and 1986. Upon joining the organization, he first worked as a teller . After four months in which he was twice held up at gunpoint, he entered a management training program. His positions included management trainee, computer programmer, budget analyst, commercial lender, product manager, and supervisor. [ 11 ] He later shifted to work at Pacific Bell . Devoting time to building a new career, he woke up every day at 4 a.m. and spent time on various endeavors; cartooning proved to be the most successful of them. Adams created Dilbert during this period of personal exploration. [ 15 ] The Dilbert name was suggested by his former boss, Mike Goodwin. Dogbert, originally named Dildog, was loosely based on his family's deceased pet beagle Lucy. His submissions of Dilbert and other comic panels to various publications, including The New Yorker and Playboy , were not published, but an inspirational letter from a fan persuaded Adams to keep trying. [ 11 ] He worked at Pacific Bell between 1986 and June 30, 1995, and the personalities he encountered there inspired many of his Dilbert characters. [ 16 ] In 1989, while still employed at Pacific Bell, Adams launched Dilbert with United Media . To maintain his income, he continued to draw his cartoons during the early morning hours. His first payment for Dilbert was a monthly royalty check of $368.62. Dilbert gradually became more popular. It was syndicated in 100 newspapers in 1991 and 400 by 1994. Adams attributed his success to his idea of including his email address in the panels, which resulted in feedback and suggestions from readers. [ 11 ] Full-time cartoonist and author Adams's success grew, and he became a full-time cartoonist as Dilbert reached 800 newspapers. In 1996, his first business book, The Dilbert Principle , was released. It expounded on his concept of the Dilbert principle . [ 11 ] In 1997, Adams won the National Cartoonists Society 's Reuben Award for Outstanding Cartoonist and Best Newspaper Comic Strip. [ 11 ] Logitech CEO Pierluigi Zappacosta invited Adams to impersonate a management consultant, which he did wearing a wig and false mustache. He tricked Logitech managers into adopting a mission statement that Adams described as "so impossibly complicated that it has no real content whatsoever". [ 17 ] [ 18 ] His writing in San Jose Mercury News West Magazine regarding the incident earned him an Orwell Award . [ 19 ] By 2000, the comic was in 2,000 newspapers in 57 countries and 19 languages. [ 11 ] His comic strips were adapted as an animated television series , which premiered in January 1999 and ran for two seasons on UPN . Adams served as executive producer and showrunner, along with Seinfeld writer Larry Charles . The show earned a Primetime Emmy Award in 1999. Adams later said that the show had been canceled because he was white and UPN had decided to shift toward African-American viewers. [ 20 ] [ 21 ] In addition to his cartoon work, Adams wrote books in various other areas, including self-improvement and religion. [ 20 ] His book God's Debris (2001) lays out a theory of pandeism , in which God blows itself up to see what will happen, which becomes the cause of our universe. [ 22 ] In The Religion War (2004), Adams suggests that followers of theistic religions such as Christianity and Islam are subconsciously aware that their beliefs are false, and that this awareness is reflected in their consistently acting as if these religions, and their threats of damnation for sinners, are untrue. In a 2017 interview, Adams said that his books on religion, not Dilbert , would be his ultimate legacy. [ 20 ] His long-held agnostic outlook began to shift publicly as he confronted his terminal illness. On a February 22, 2023, livestream of his Real Coffee with Scott Adams program, Adams reacted to a poll that asked if respondents agreed that " it's okay to be white ", [ 23 ] [ 24 ] a phrase described by the Anti-Defamation League as associated with the white supremacist movement. [ 25 ] [ 26 ] The poll showed 26% of black respondents disagreed with the statement and 21% were not sure. [ 27 ] Adams, upset that nearly half did not agree, described black people as a " hate group " and said "the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from black people; just get the fuck away". [ 28 ] [ 29 ] [ 30 ] [ 31 ] In response to those and other related comments, Dilbert was dropped by numerous newspapers across the country, including The New York Times (in its international print edition), Los Angeles Times , The Washington Post , and USA Today -affiliated newspapers. [ 27 ] [ 32 ] [ 26 ] Andrews McMeel Syndication , the distributor of Dilbert , announced on February 27, 2023, that it was severing all ties with Adams for his racist remarks. [ 33 ] [ 27 ] Portfolio , his book publisher, announced it was dropping his non- Dilbert book that was scheduled for release that September. [ 34 ] [ 35 ] Adams defended his remarks as hyperbole and as taken out of context in reportage; he disavowed racism and asserted that nobody would disagree with what he said were his main points: do not discriminate and avoid things that look like they will put one at risk. [ 25 ] [ 36 ] On March 13, Adams relaunched Dilbert as Dilbert Reborn on the subscription website Locals , minus the earlier Dilbert comics. [ 37 ] On November 15, 2025, he announced he would no longer draw Dilbert because his right hand had focal dystonia and his left hand was semi-paralyzed, but would continue writing the strip as long as he was able to. His art director took over as the artist. [ 38 ] Real Coffee with Scott Adams In 2015, Adams wrote blog posts predicting that Donald Trump had a 98 percent chance of winning the presidency based on his persuasion skills, and he started writing about Trump's persuasion techniques. His pieces on this topic grew popular, so he started writing about it regularly. [ 39 ] Adams soon developed this as a daily video presentation called Real Coffee with Scott Adams , distributed to Periscope , YouTube , and ScottAdamsSays.com. [ 40 ] Real Coffee with Scott Adams featured guests such as Naval Ravikant , [ 41 ] Ed Latimore , [ 42 ] Dave Rubin , [ 43 ] Erik Finman, [ 44 ] Greg Gutfeld , [ 45 ] Matt Gaetz , [ 46 ] Ben Askren , [ 47 ] Carpe Donktum, [ 48 ] Steve Hsu , [ 49 ] Michael Shellenberger , [ 50 ] [ 51 ] Carson Griffith, [ 52 ] [ 53 ] Shiva Ayyadurai , [ 54 ] James Nortey, [ 55 ] Clint Morgan, [ 56 ] and Bjørn Lomborg . [ 57 ] In 2018, Kanye West shared multiple clips on Twitter from a Coffee episode titled: "Scott Adams tells you how Kanye showed the way to The Golden Age. With Coffee." [ 58 ] In 2020, President Trump retweeted an episode where Adams mocked Joe Biden . [ 59 ] Adams offered paid subscriptions for exclusive content on Locals . [ 60 ] In 2020, Adams said: "For context, I expect my Dilbert income to largely disappear in the next year as newspapers close up forever. The coronavirus sped up that inevitable trend. Like many of you, I'm reinventing my life for a post-coronavirus world. The Locals platform is a big part of that." [ 61 ] Other Adams started Scott Adams Foods, Inc. in 1999, which made the Dilberito and Protein Chef. First announced in The Dilbert Future and introduced in 1999, [ 62 ] the Dilberito was a vegetarian microwave burrito that came in flavors of Mexican , Indian , Barbecue , and Garlic & Herb. It was sold through some health food stores. Adams's inspiration for the product was that "diet is the number one cause of health-related problems in the world. I figured I could put a dent in that problem and make some money at the same time." He aimed to create a healthy food product that also had mass appeal, a concept he called "the blue jeans of food". [ 63 ] A Flash game titled Dilberito was developed and published by Blam! Video Game Development in 2000 for Scott Adams Foods. [ 64 ] The product failed to catch on in the market, leading Adams "several years and several million dollars later" to sell off his intellectual property and exit the business. Adams himself noted, "[t]he mineral fortification was hard to disguise, and because of the veggie and legume content, three bites of the Dilberito made you fart so hard your intestines formed a tail." [ 65 ] The New York Times noted the burrito "could have been designed only by a food technologist or by someone who eats lunch without much thought to taste". [ 66 ] Adams sold off his intellectual property in Scott Adams Foods when the Dilberito failed in the marketplace in 2003. He was a restaurateur starting in 1997, but exited that business before 2017. [ 67 ] [ 20 ] Adams co-founded the service WhenHub, which has been described by Gizmodo as "similar to Cameo ... except instead of pre-recorded messages from movie stars and rappers, it offers live chats with a range of subject-matter experts". [ 68 ] [ 69 ] In 2019, Adams briefly received negative media attention when during the Gilroy Garlic Festival shooting he posted a tweet suggesting that witnesses download the WhenHub app and "set your price to take calls". He later apologized, saying the message was "poorly worded". [ 70 ] [ 71 ] As of 2024, [update] the WhenHub website is inactive. [ 72 ] He had a cameo in " Review ", a third-season episode of the TV series NewsRadio , in which Matthew Brock (played by Andy Dick ) becomes an obsessed Dilbert fan. Adams is credited as "Guy in line behind Dave and Joe in first scene". [ 73 ] Adams was a guest on podcasts including Making Sense with Sam Harris , [ 74 ] The Tim Ferriss Show , [ 75 ] The James Altucher Show , [ 76 ] The Ben Shapiro Show , [ 77 ] The Rubin Report , [ 78 ] Real Talk with Zuby [ 79 ] and The David Pakman Show . [ 80 ] He appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher , [ 81 ] Commonwealth Club of California , [ 82 ] Fox News [ 83 ] and Berkeley Haas . [ 84 ] Adams was interviewed for Mike Cernovich 's documentaries Silenced (2016) [ 85 ] and Hoaxed (2019). [ 86 ] Political views Adams often commented on political and social matters, although he said in 2016, "I don't vote and I am not a member of a political party." [ 87 ] As of 2008, Adams identified his views on social issues as "[leaning] libertarian , minus the crazy stuff". [ 88 ] After endorsing Mitt Romney for the 2012 presidential election , [ 89 ] Adams endorsed Donald Trump in the following election . During that election, he wrote extensively on Trump, praising his persuasion skills [ 90 ] [ 91 ] and later described his support for Trump as a factor in ending his public speaking career, as well as negatively impacting his income and friendships. [ 92 ] [ 93 ] He also spoke against Trump's opponent Hillary Clinton , expressing concerns that Clinton's candidacy would lower the status of men in America. [ 94 ] [ 95 ] In 2017, Adams described his views as supporting left-wing policies he perceived as realistic. [ 96 ] Adams made various predictions about politics. Early in the 2016 election, Adams predicted Trump would win based on his analysis of how persuasive the candidates were. As Trump gained momentum, Adams's election analysis gained media and popular attention. [ 20 ] Later, these predictions repeatedly featured in Politico magazine's annual list of "Worst Predictions", including that either one of Trump, Bernie Sanders , or Joe Biden would die from COVID-19 by the end of 2020, [ 97 ] that "Republicans will be hunted" if Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election [ 98 ] and that the 2024 presidential election would be ultimately overturned in Trump's favor by the U.S. Supreme Court regardless of outcome. [ 99 ] After the 2022 Highland Park parade shooting , Adams opined that society leaves parents of troubled teenage boys with only two options: to either watch people die or murder their own son. He said his comments were inspired by his own stepson, who became addicted to drugs at age 14 and later died of a fentanyl overdose. [ 100 ] [ 101 ] Adams was anti- masking and anti- COVID-19 vaccines , as he believed that people unvaccinated against COVID-19 "came out the best" compared to vaccinated people, which PolitiFact determined to be incorrect. [ 102 ] In a 2006 blog post, Adams asked if official figures of the number of deaths in the Holocaust were based on methodologically sound research. [ 103 ] [ 36 ] In 2023, Adams suggested the 2017 Unite the Right rally was "an American intel op against Trump". [ 104 ] In 2020, Adams said that the Dilbert TV show was cancelled because he was white and UPN had decided to focus on an African-American audience, and that he had been discriminated against. [ 105 ] In a series of comic strips in September 2022, Dilbert parodied environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) strategies. Part of the plotline involved a black character who "identif[ied] as white" and the company management asking him if he could also identify as gay. [ 106 ] Personal life Adams married Shelly Miles aboard a yacht , the Galaxy Commodore , on July 22, 2006, in San Francisco Bay , in a ceremony conducted by the ship's captain. [ 107 ] The two had met at a gym in Pleasanton, California , where Shelly was an employee and Adams was a customer. Adams was a stepfather to Shelly's two children, Savannah and Justin, the latter of whom died of a fentanyl overdose in 2018 at age 18. [ 108 ] [ 109 ] [ 110 ] Adams and Shelly divorced in 2014, and Adams said the two remained friends, with Shelly moving a block away after their separation. [ 111 ] On Christmas Day in 2019, Adams announced on his podcast that he was engaged to Kristina Basham, [ 112 ] and later said that they married on July 11, 2020. Basham, a model and baker, has two daughters and is a vice-president at WhenHub. [ 20 ] On March 10, 2022, Adams announced on his YouTube podcast that he and Basham were getting divorced. [ 113 ] Adams said he was trained as a hypnotist . [ 114 ] He credited affirmations for many of his achievements, including scoring in the ninety-fourth percentile on a difficult qualification exam for business school and creating Dilbert ' s success. He said that the affirmations gave him focus. [ 5 ] He described a method he used that he said gave him success: he pictured in his mind what he wanted and wrote it down 15 times a day on a piece of paper. [ 115 ] The technique is used by Dogbert in a 1989 Dilbert strip. [ 116 ] Adams lived in Pleasanton, California , and traveled in the San Francisco Bay Area. [ 117 ] [ 118 ] He had no biological children. [ 119 ] Shortly before his death, Adams announced his intention to convert to Christianity . He viewed the decision in pragmatic, cost-to-benefit terms, concluding the potential benefit of eternal salvation to outweigh any downside if the belief proved to be false. [ 120 ] [ 121 ] Health and death In the early 1990s, the pinky finger of Adams's right hand would spasm when he tried to draw, and he was diagnosed with focal dystonia . He said he cured himself by doing a conditioning exercise. In late 2004, his focal dystonia returned, which affected his ability to draw for lengthy periods. [ 122 ] [ 123 ] Beginning in 2014, he drew on a graphics tablet , [ 124 ] and had subsequently switched from using his right hand to his left. [ 125 ] He also had spasmodic dysphonia , a condition that causes the vocal cords to behave abnormally. In July 2008 he underwent surgery to reroute the nerve connections to his vocal cords [ 126 ] and his voice reached new levels of functionality. [ 127 ] Adams announced on his daily podcast Real Coffee with Scott Adams in May 2025 that he was diagnosed with stage IV prostate cancer which spread to his bones. [ 128 ] [ 129 ] He noted that taking ivermectin and fenbendazole to treat the cancer did not work. [ 130 ] In June, he had prepared for physician-assisted suicide through the California End of Life Option Act , and had planned to go through with it after his stepdaughter's wedding at the end of the month, as the pain was too much to handle. At this point, he began taking testosterone blocker pills which caused his pain to abate. This medication was suggested initially but Adams had declined this treatment. This medication dropped his prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels by 90%, which he said would prolong his life by between weeks and years. [ 131 ] [ 132 ] In the autumn of 2025, Adams asked Trump on social media for access to the cancer drug Pluvicto due to the rapid progression of his cancer. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. replied saying "How do I reach you? The President wants to help." [ 133 ] While undergoing radiation therapy for the cancer, he was eventually paralyzed below the waist. [ 134 ] Adams disclosed on Real Coffee in January 2026 about his ongoing heart failure diagnosis as well as the low chances of recovering from the cancer. [ 135 ] He died while under hospice care at his Pleasanton home on January 13 at the age of 68. [ 136 ] [ 137 ] Recognition Adams received recognition for his work, including the National Cartoonists Society Reuben Award and Newspaper Comic Strip Award for 1997 for his work on Dilbert . He was listed on the Thinkers50 Ranking of the 50 most influential management thinkers, placing 31st in 2001, [ 138 ] 27th in 2003, [ 139 ] 12th in 2005, [ 140 ] and 21st in 2007. [ 141 ] He received the Orwell Award in 1998 for his participation in "Mission Impertinent" for San Jose Mercury News West Magazine .

Figures announced on Friday morning put Museveni in front with 76% of the votes, based on returns from 45% of the country's polling stations. He is followed by opposition leader Bobi Wine with 20%. Security forces have surrounded Wine's home in the capital, Kampala, "effectively placing him and his wife under house arrest", his party said. "Security officers have unlawfully jumped over the perimeter fence and are now erecting tents within his compound," the National Unity Platform (NUP) party posted on X late on Thursday. Police spokesman Kituuma Rusoke told local broadcaster NBS that as a presidential contestant, Wine was "a person of interest", adding that the heavy security deployment around his home was for his own security. Some local journalists said security forces had blocked them from accessing the opposition leader's home in Kampala's Magere area. Following the 2021 election, in which he garnered 35% of the vote, Wine was confined to his home for several days by security forces. Electoral chief Simon Byabakama said on Friday that the vote counting had not been affected by the internet blackout imposed earlier in the week, as the commission was using a "private system" to transmit results from districts to the national tally centre. Asked about the timing of the final results announcement, Byabakama said: "We are on course to announce the winner of the presidential election within 48 hours. Before 5 PM [14:00 GMT] tomorrow, we shall have the final results." Ugandans voted in a tense national election on Thursday after an often violent campaign, with President Museveni, 81, seeking a seventh term in office. Wine, a 43-year-old pop star-turned-politician, has alleged "massive" fraud during the election, which was held under an internet blackout. He did not provide documentary proof and the authorities have not responded to his allegations. Last week, the United Nation's Human Rights Office said that the election would be marked by "widespread repression and intimidation". Museveni once criticised African leaders who cling to power. Now he wants a seventh term Bobi Wine: The 'hounded' pop star taking on Uganda's long-time president During Thursday's vote, voting was delayed by up to four hours in many polling stations around the country as ballot boxes were slow to arrive and biometric machines, used to verify voters' identity, did not work properly. Some have linked the problems to the network outage. Although there are other six candidates, the presidential poll is essentially a two-horse race between Museveni and Wine, but given the president has won the six previous elections, analysts say he is likely to further extend his time in power. Wine, who says he represents the youth in a country where most of the population is aged under 30, has promised to tackle corruption and impose sweeping reforms, while Museveni argues he is the sole guarantor of stability and progress in the country. The campaign period was marred by the disruption of opposition activities - security forces have been accused of assaulting and detaining Wine's supporters. Police spokesperson Kituuma Rusoke dismissed these complaints, accusing opposition supporters of being disruptive. Internet access was suspended on Tuesday, with Uganda's Communications Commission saying the blackout was necessary to prevent misinformation, fraud and the incitement of violence - a move condemned by the UN human rights office as "deeply worrying". Wine, whose real name is Robert Kyagulanyi, had called on his supporters to protest, if Thursday's election results were manipulated. However, as of Friday morning, there have been no signs of any demonstrations. A Museveni victory would extend the former rebel leader's four-decade grip on power. He is widely believed to favour his son, military chief Muhoozi Kainerugaba, as his successor, though he denies grooming him for the role. The final presidential result is expected be announced by 16:00 local time (13:00 GMT) on Saturday, according to the electoral commission.

(incl. Caviomorpha ) Myomorpha Sciuromorpha Anomaluromorpha Castorimorpha Hystricomorpha (incl. Caviomorpha ) Myomorpha Sciuromorpha Combined range of all rodent species (not including introduced populations) Rodents (from Latin rōdēns , 'gnawing') are mammals of the order Rodentia ( / r oʊ ˈ d ɛ n ( t ) ʃ ə / roh- DEN -shə or roh- DEN -chə ), which are characterized by a single pair of continuously growing incisors in each of the upper and lower jaws . About 40% of all mammal species are rodents. They are native to all major land masses except for Antarctica , and several oceanic islands, though they have subsequently been introduced to most of these land masses by human activity. Rodents are extremely diverse in their ecology and lifestyles and can be found in almost every terrestrial habitat, including human-made environments. Species can be arboreal , fossorial (burrowing), saltatorial /ricochetal (leaping on their hind legs), or semiaquatic. However, all rodents share several morphological features, including having only a single upper and lower pair of ever-growing incisors. Well-known rodents include mice , rats , squirrels , prairie dogs , porcupines , beavers , guinea pigs , and hamsters . Once included with rodents, rabbits , hares , and pikas , which also have incisors that grow continuously, are now considered to be in a separate order, the Lagomorpha , distinguished by an extra pair of incisors. Both Rodentia and Lagomorpha are sister groups , sharing a single common ancestor and forming the clade of Glires . Most rodents are small animals with robust bodies, short limbs, and long tails. They use their sharp incisors to gnaw food, excavate burrows, and defend themselves. Most eat seeds or other plant material, but some have more varied diets. They tend to be social animals and many species live in societies with complex ways of communicating with each other. Mating among rodents can vary from monogamy , to polygyny , to promiscuity . Many have litters of underdeveloped, altricial young, while others are precocial (relatively well developed) at birth. The rodent fossil record dates back to the Paleocene of Asia . Rodents greatly diversified in the Eocene , as they spread across continents, sometimes even crossing oceans . Rodents reached both South America and Madagascar from Africa and, until the arrival of Homo sapiens , were the only terrestrial placental mammals to reach and colonize Australia. Rodents have been used as food, for clothing, as pets , and as laboratory animals in research. Some species, in particular, the brown rat , the black rat , and the house mouse , are serious pests , eating and spoiling food stored by humans and spreading diseases. Accidentally introduced species of rodents are often considered to be invasive and have caused the extinction of numerous species, such as island birds, the dodo being an example, previously isolated from land-based predators. Characteristics Teeth The distinguishing feature of the rodents is their pairs of continuously growing, razor-sharp, open-rooted incisors . [ 1 ] These incisors have thick layers of enamel on the front and little enamel on the back. [ 2 ] Because they do not stop growing, the animal must continue to wear them down so that they do not reach and pierce the skull. As the incisors grind against each other, the softer dentine on the rear of the teeth wears away, leaving the sharp enamel edge shaped like the blade of a chisel . [ 3 ] Rodent species have 12–28 teeth total, usually 22, with no canines. A gap, or diastema , occurs between the incisors and the cheek teeth in most species. This allows rodents to suck in and seal their mouth from inedible material. [ 1 ] Chinchillas and guinea pigs have a high-fiber diet; their molars have no roots and grow continuously like their incisors. [ 4 ] In many species, the molars are relatively large, intricately structured, and highly cusped or ridged. Rodent molars are well equipped to grind food into small particles. [ 1 ] The jaw musculature is strong. The lower jaw is thrust forward while gnawing and is pulled backwards during chewing. [ 2 ] Gnawing uses incisors and chewing uses molars, however, due to the cranial anatomy of rodents these feeding methods cannot be used at the same time and are considered to be mutually exclusive. [ 5 ] Among rodents, the masseter muscle plays a key role in chewing, making up 60% – 80% of the total muscle mass among masticatory muscles and reflects rodents' herbivorous diet. [ 6 ] The Sciuromorpha , such as the eastern grey squirrel , have a large deep masseter , making them efficient at biting with the incisors. The Myomorpha , such as the brown rat, have enlarged temporalis and masseter muscles, making them able to chew powerfully with their molars. [ 7 ] Other facial features In rodents, masseter muscles insert behind the eyes and contribute to eye boggling that occurs during gnawing, where the quick contraction and relaxation of the muscle causes the eyeballs to move up and down. [ 7 ] The Hystricomorpha , such as the guinea pig, have larger superficial masseter muscles and smaller deep masseter muscles than rats or squirrels, possibly making them less efficient at biting with the incisors, but their enlarged internal pterygoid muscles may allow them to move the jaw further sideways when chewing. [ 8 ] The cheek pouch is a specific morphological feature used for storing food and is evident in particular subgroups of rodents like kangaroo rats , hamsters, chipmunks and gophers which have two bags that may range from the mouth to the front of the shoulders. [ 9 ] True mice and rats do not contain this structure but their cheeks are elastic due to a high degree of musculature and innervation in the region. [ 10 ] Size While the largest species, the capybara , can weigh as much as 66 kg (146 lb), most rodents weigh less than 100 g (3.5 oz). Rodents have wide-ranging morphologies, but typically have squat bodies and short limbs. [ 1 ] Digits The fore limbs usually have five digits, including an opposable thumb, while the hind limbs have three to five digits. The elbow gives the forearms great flexibility. [ 3 ] The majority of species are plantigrade , walking on both the palms and soles of their feet, and have claw-like nails. The nails of burrowing species tend to be long and strong, while arboreal rodents have shorter, sharper nails. Rodenta, have nails on their first digit which they use in manual food handling. Such a nail combined with dexterous feeding movement with incisors which allow them to eat hard seeds and nuts, a niche that they presently dominate. This thumbnail is argued to be ancestrial with exceptions being linked to its replacement by claws in subterranean habits and for oral-only feeding. [ 11 ] Locomotion Rodent species use a wide variety of methods of locomotion including quadrupedal walking, running, burrowing, climbing, bipedal hopping ( kangaroo rats and hopping mice ), swimming and even gliding. [ 3 ] Scaly-tailed squirrels and flying squirrels , although not closely related, can both glide from tree to tree using parachute-like membranes that stretch from the fore to the hind limbs. [ 12 ] The agouti is fleet-footed and antelope -like, being digitigrade and having hoof-like nails. The majority of rodents have tails, which can be of many shapes and sizes. Some tails are prehensile , as in the Eurasian harvest mouse , and the fur on the tails can vary from bushy to completely bald. The tail is sometimes used for communication, as when beavers slap their tails on the water surface or house mice rattle their tails to indicate alarm. Some species have vestigial tails or no tails at all. [ 1 ] In some species, the tail is capable of regeneration if a part is broken off. [ 3 ] Senses Rodents generally have well-developed senses of smell , hearing, and vision. Nocturnal species often have enlarged eyes and some are sensitive to ultraviolet light. Many species have long, sensitive whiskers or vibrissae for touch or "whisking" . [ 14 ] Whisker action is mostly driven by the brain stem, which is itself provoked by the cortex. [ 14 ] However Legg et al. 1989 find an alternate circuit between the cortex and whiskers through the cerebellar circuits, and Hemelt & Keller 2008 the superior colliculus. [ 14 ] Some rodents have cheek pouches , which may be lined with fur. These can be turned inside out for cleaning. In many species, the tongue cannot reach past the incisors. Rodents have efficient digestive systems, absorbing nearly 80% of ingested energy. When eating cellulose , the food is softened in the stomach and passed to the cecum , where bacteria reduce it to its carbohydrate elements. The rodent then practices coprophagy , eating its own fecal pellets, so the nutrients can be absorbed by the gut. Rodents therefore often produce a hard and dry fecal pellet. [ 1 ] Horn et al. 2013 [ 15 ] makes the finding that rodents entirely lack the ability to vomit. [ 16 ] [ 17 ] [ 18 ] [ 19 ] In many species, the penis contains a bone, the baculum ; the testes can be located either abdominally or at the groin. [ 3 ] Sexual dimorphism Sexual dimorphism occurs in many rodent species. In some rodents, males are larger than females, while in others the reverse is true. Male-bias sexual dimorphism is typical for ground squirrels , kangaroo rats, solitary mole rats and pocket gophers ; it likely developed due to sexual selection and greater male–male combat. Female-bias sexual dimorphism exists among chipmunks and jumping mice . It is not understood why this pattern occurs, but in the case of yellow-pine chipmunks , males may have selected larger females due to their greater reproductive success. In some species, such as voles , sexual dimorphism can vary from population to population. In bank voles , females are typically larger than males, but male-bias sexual dimorphism occurs in alpine populations, possibly because of the lack of predators and greater competition between males. [ 20 ] Distribution and habitat One of the most widespread groups of mammals, rodents can be found on every continent except Antarctica. They are the only terrestrial placental mammals to have colonized Australia and New Guinea without human intervention. Humans have also allowed the animals to spread to many remote oceanic islands (e.g., the Polynesian rat ). [ 3 ] Rodents have adapted to almost every terrestrial habitat, from cold tundra (where they can live under snow) to hot deserts. Some species such as tree squirrels and New World porcupines are arboreal , while some, such as gophers , tuco-tucos , and mole rats, live almost completely underground, where they build complex burrow systems. Others dwell on the surface of the ground, but may have a burrow into which they can retreat. Beavers and muskrats are known for being semiaquatic, [ 1 ] but the rodent best adapted for aquatic life is probably the earless water rat from New Guinea. [ 21 ] Rodents have also thrived in human-created environments such as agricultural and urban areas . [ 22 ] Though some species are common pests for humans, rodents also play important ecological roles. [ 1 ] Some rodents are considered keystone species and ecosystem engineers in their respective habitats. In the Great Plains of North America, the burrowing activities of prairie dogs play important roles in soil aeration and nutrient redistribution, raising the organic content of the soil and increasing the absorption of water. They maintain these grassland habitats, [ 23 ] and some large herbivores such as bison and pronghorn prefer to graze near prairie dog colonies due to the increased nutritional quality of forage. [ 24 ] Extirpation of prairie dogs can also contribute to regional and local biodiversity loss , increased seed depredation, and the establishment and spread of invasive shrubs. [ 23 ] Burrowing rodents may eat the fruiting bodies of fungi and spread spores through their feces, thereby allowing the fungi to disperse and form symbiotic relationships with the roots of plants (which usually cannot thrive without them). As such, these rodents may play a role in maintaining healthy forests. [ 25 ] In many temperate regions, beavers play an essential hydrological role. When building their dams and lodges, beavers alter the paths of streams and rivers [ 26 ] and allow for the creation of extensive wetland habitats. One study found that engineering by beavers leads to a 33 percent increase in the number of herbaceous plant species in riparian areas . [ 27 ] Another study found that beavers increase wild salmon populations. [ 28 ] Meanwhile, some rodents are seen as pests , due to their wide range. [ 29 ] Behavior and life history Feeding Most rodents are herbivorous , feeding exclusively on plant material such as seeds, stems, leaves, flowers, and roots. Some are omnivorous and a few are predators. [ 2 ] The field vole is a typical herbivorous rodent and feeds on grasses, herbs, root tubers, moss, and other vegetation, and gnaws on bark during the winter. It occasionally eats invertebrates such as insect larvae. [ 30 ] The plains pocket gopher eats plant material found underground during tunneling, and also collects grasses, roots, and tubers in its cheek pouches and caches them in underground larder chambers. [ 31 ] The Texas pocket gopher avoids emerging onto the surface to feed by seizing the roots of plants with its jaws and pulling them downwards into its burrow. It also practices coprophagy. [ 32 ] The African pouched rat forages on the surface, gathering anything that might be edible into its capacious cheek pouches until its face bulges out sideways. It then returns to its burrow to sort through the material it has gathered and eats the nutritious items. [ 33 ] Agouti species are one of the few animal groups that can break open the large capsules of the Brazil nut fruit. Too many seeds are inside to be consumed in one meal, so the agouti carries some off and caches them. This helps dispersal of the seeds as any that the agouti fails to retrieve are distant from the parent tree when they germinate. Other nut-bearing trees tend to bear a glut of fruits in the autumn. These are too numerous to be eaten in one meal and squirrels gather and store the surplus in crevices and hollow trees. In desert regions, seeds are often available only for short periods. The kangaroo rat collects all it can find and stores them in larder chambers in its burrow. [ 33 ] A strategy for dealing with seasonal plenty is to eat as much as possible and store the surplus nutrients as fat. Marmots do this, and may be 50% heavier in the autumn than in the spring. They rely on their fat reserves during their long winter hibernation . [ 33 ] Beavers feed on the leaves, buds, and inner bark of growing trees, as well as aquatic plants. They store food for winter use by felling small trees and leafy branches in the autumn and immersing them in their pond, sticking the ends into the mud to anchor them. Here, they can access their food supply underwater even when their pond is frozen over. [ 34 ] Although rodents have been regarded traditionally as herbivores, most small rodents opportunistically include insects, worms, fungi, fish, or meat in their diets and a few have become specialized to rely on a diet of animal matter. A functional-morphological study of the rodent tooth system supports the idea that primitive rodents were omnivores rather than herbivores. Studies of the literature show that numerous members of the Sciuromorpha and Myomorpha, and a few members of the Hystricomorpha, have either included animal matter in their diets or been prepared to eat such food when offered it in captivity. Examination of the stomach contents of the North American white-footed mouse , normally considered to be herbivorous, showed 34% animal matter. [ 35 ] More specialized carnivores include the shrewlike rats of the Philippines, which feed on insects and soft-bodied invertebrates, and the rakali or Australian water-rat, which devours aquatic insects, fish, crustaceans, mussels, snails, frogs, birds' eggs, and water birds. [ 35 ] [ 36 ] The grasshopper mouse from dry regions of North America feeds on insects, scorpions, and other small mice, and only a small part of its diet is plant material. It has a chunky body with short legs and tail, but is agile and can easily overpower prey as large as itself. [ 37 ] Social behavior Rodents exhibit a wide range of types of social behavior ranging from the mammalian caste system of the naked mole-rat , [ 38 ] the extensive "town" of the colonial prairie dog , [ 39 ] through family groups to the independent, solitary life of the edible dormouse . Adult dormice may have overlapping feeding ranges, but they live in individual nests and feed separately, coming together briefly in the breeding season to mate. The pocket gopher is also a solitary animal outside the breeding season, each individual digging a complex tunnel system and maintaining a territory. [ 40 ] Larger rodents tend to live in family units where parents and their offspring live together until the young disperse. Beavers live in extended family units typically with a pair of adults, this year's kits, the previous year's offspring, and sometimes older young. [ 41 ] Brown rats usually live in small colonies with up to six females sharing a burrow and one male defending a territory around the burrow. At high population densities, this system breaks down and males show a hierarchical system of dominance with overlapping ranges. Female offspring remain in the colony while male young disperse. [ 42 ] The prairie vole is monogamous and forms a lifelong pair bond. Outside the breeding season, prairie voles live with others in small colonies. A male is not aggressive towards other males until he has mated, after which time he defends a territory, a female, and a nest against other males. The pair huddles together, grooms one another, and shares nesting and pup-raising responsibilities. [ 43 ] Among the most social of rodents are the ground squirrels, which typically form colonies based on female kinship, with males dispersing after weaning and becoming nomadic as adults. Cooperation in ground squirrels varies between species and typically includes making alarm calls, defending territories, sharing food, protecting nesting areas, and preventing infanticide. [ 44 ] The black-tailed prairie dog forms large towns that may cover many hectares. The burrows do not interconnect, but are excavated and occupied by territorial family groups known as coteries. A coterie often consists of an adult male, three or four adult females, several nonbreeding yearlings, and the current year's offspring. Individuals within coteries are friendly with each other, but hostile towards outsiders. [ 39 ] Perhaps the most extreme examples of colonial behavior in rodents are the eusocial naked mole rat and Damaraland mole rat . The naked mole rat lives completely underground and can form colonies of up to 80 individuals. Only one female and up to three males in the colony reproduce, while the rest of the members are smaller and sterile, and function as workers. Some individuals are of intermediate size. They help with the rearing of the young and can take the place of a reproductive if one dies. [ 38 ] The Damaraland mole rat is characterized by having a single reproductively active male and female in a colony where the remaining animals are not truly sterile, but become fertile only if they establish a colony of their own. [ 45 ] The naked mole-rat has a particularly long life-span for a small rodent, about 30 years, and the basis for this longevity has been investigated. [ 46 ] Naked mole-rats express DNA repair genes, including core genes in several DNA repair pathways, at a higher level than shorter-lived mice, and thus it was suggested that DNA repair acts as a longevity assurance system. [ 46 ] Communication Olfactory Rodents use scent marking in many social contexts including inter- and intra-species communication, the marking of trails and the establishment of territories. Their urine provides genetic information about individuals including the species, the sex and individual identity, and metabolic information on dominance, reproductive status and health. Compounds derived from the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are bound to several urinary proteins. The odor of a predator depresses scent-marking behavior. [ 47 ] Rodents are able to recognize close relatives by smell and this allows them to show nepotism (preferential behavior toward their kin) and also avoid inbreeding. This kin recognition is by olfactory cues from urine, feces and glandular secretions. The main assessment may involve the MHC, where the degree of relatedness of two individuals is correlated to the MHC genes they have in common. In non-kin communication, where more permanent odor markers are required, as at territorial borders, then non-volatile major urinary proteins (MUPs), which function as pheromone transporters, may also be used. MUPs may also signal individual identity, with each male house mouse ( Mus musculus ) excreting urine containing about a dozen genetically encoded MUPs. [ 48 ] House mice deposit urine, which contains pheromones, for territorial marking, individual and group recognition, and social organization. [ 49 ] Territorial beavers and red squirrels investigate and become familiar with the scents of their neighbors and respond less aggressively to intrusions by them than to those made by non-territorial "floaters" or strangers. This is known as the " dear enemy effect ". [ 50 ] [ 51 ] Auditory Many rodent species, particularly those that are diurnal and social, have a wide range of alarm calls that are emitted when they perceive threats. There are both direct and indirect benefits of doing this. A potential predator may stop when it knows it has been detected, or an alarm call can allow conspecifics or related individuals to take evasive action. [ 52 ] Several species, for example prairie dogs, have complex anti-predator alarm call systems. These species may have different calls for different predators (e.g. aerial predators or ground-based predators) and each call contains information about the nature of the precise threat. [ 53 ] The urgency of the threat is also conveyed by the acoustic properties of the call. [ 54 ] Social rodents have a wider range of vocalizations than do solitary species. Fifteen different call-types have been recognized in adult Kataba mole rats and four in juveniles. [ 55 ] Similarly, the common degu , another social, burrowing rodent, exhibits a wide array of communication methods and has an elaborate vocal repertoire comprising fifteen different categories of sound. [ 56 ] Ultrasonic calls play a part in social communication between dormice and are used when the individuals are out of sight of each other. [ 57 ] House mice use both audible and ultrasonic calls in a variety of contexts. Audible vocalizations can often be heard during agonistic or aggressive encounters, whereas ultrasound is used in sexual communication and also by pups when they have fallen out of the nest. [ 49 ] Laboratory rats (which are brown rats, Rattus norvegicus ) emit short, high frequency, ultrasonic vocalizations during purportedly pleasurable experiences such as rough-and-tumble play, when anticipating routine doses of morphine , during mating, and when tickled. The vocalization, described as a distinct "chirping", has been likened to laughter , and is interpreted as an expectation of something rewarding. In clinical studies, the chirping is associated with positive emotional feelings, and social bonding occurs with the tickler, resulting in the rats becoming conditioned to seek the tickling. However, as the rats age, the tendency to chirp declines. Like most rat vocalizations, the chirping is at frequencies too high for humans to hear without special equipment, so bat detectors have been used for this purpose. [ 58 ] Visual Rodents, like all placental mammals except primates, have just two types of light receptive cones in their retina, [ 59 ] a short wavelength "blue-UV" type and a middle wavelength "green" type. They are therefore classified as dichromats ; however, they are visually sensitive into the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum and therefore can see light that humans cannot. The functions of this UV sensitivity are not always clear. In degus , for example, the belly reflects more UV light than the back. Therefore, when a degu stands up on its hind legs, which it does when alarmed, it exposes its belly to other degus and ultraviolet vision may serve a purpose in communicating the alarm. When it stands on all fours, its low UV-reflectance back could help make the degu less visible to predators. [ 60 ] Ultraviolet light is abundant during the day but not at night. There is a large increase in the ratio of ultraviolet to visible light in the morning and evening twilight hours. Many rodents are active during twilight hours (crepuscular activity), and UV-sensitivity would be advantageous at these times. Ultraviolet reflectivity is of dubious value for nocturnal rodents. [ 61 ] The urine of many rodents (e.g. voles, degus, mice, rats) strongly reflects UV light and this may be used in communication by leaving visible as well as olfactory markings. [ 62 ] However, the amount of UV that is reflected decreases with time, which in some circumstances can be disadvantageous; the common kestrel can distinguish between old and fresh rodent trails and has greater success hunting over more recently marked routes. [ 63 ] Tactile Vibrations can provide cues to conspecifics about specific behaviors being performed, predator warning and avoidance, herd or group maintenance, and courtship. The Middle East blind mole rat was the first mammal for which seismic communication was documented. These fossorial rodents bang their head against the walls of their tunnels. This behavior was initially interpreted as part of their tunnel building behavior, but it was eventually realized that they generate temporally patterned seismic signals for long-distance communication with neighboring mole rats. [ 64 ] Footdrumming is used widely as a predator warning or defensive action. It is used primarily by fossorial or semi-fossorial rodents. [ 65 ] The banner-tailed kangaroo rat produces several complex footdrumming patterns in a number of different contexts, one of which is when it encounters a snake. The footdrumming may alert nearby offspring but most likely conveys that the rat is too alert for a successful attack, thus preventing the snake's predatory pursuit. [ 64 ] [ 66 ] Several studies have indicated intentional use of ground vibrations as a means of intra-specific communication during courtship among the Cape mole rat . [ 67 ] Footdrumming has been reported to be involved in male-male competition; the dominant male indicates its resource holding potential by drumming, thus minimizing physical contact with potential rivals. [ 64 ] Mating strategies Some species of rodent are monogamous, with an adult male and female forming a lasting pair bond . Monogamy can come in two forms; obligate and facultative. In obligate monogamy, both parents care for the offspring and play an important part in their survival. This occurs in species such as California mice , oldfield mice , Malagasy giant rats and beavers. In these species, males usually mate only with their partners. In addition to increased care for young, obligate monogamy can also be beneficial to the adult male as it decreases the chances of never finding a mate or mating with an infertile female. In facultative monogamy, the males do not provide direct parental care and stay with one female because they cannot access others due to being spatially dispersed. Prairie voles appear to be an example of this form of monogamy, with males guarding and defending females within their vicinity. [ 68 ] In polygynous species, males will try to monopolize and mate with multiple females. As with monogamy, polygyny in rodents can come in two forms; defense and non-defense. Defense polygyny involves males controlling territories that contain resources that attract females. This occurs in ground squirrels like yellow-bellied marmots , California ground squirrels , Columbian ground squirrels and Richardson's ground squirrels . Males with territories are known as "resident" males and the females that live within the territories are known as "resident" females. In the case of marmots, resident males do not appear to ever lose their territories and always win encounters with invading males. Some species are also known to directly defend their resident females and the ensuing fights can lead to severe wounding. In species with non-defense polygyny, males are not territorial and wander widely in search of females to monopolize. These males establish dominance hierarchies, with the high-ranking males having access to the most females. This occurs in species like Belding's ground squirrels and some tree squirrel species. [ 68 ] Promiscuity , in which both males and females mate with multiple partners, also occurs in rodents. In species such as the white-footed mouse, females give birth to litters with multiple paternities. Promiscuity leads to increased sperm competition and males tend to have larger testicles. In the Cape ground squirrel , the male's testes can be 20 percent of its head-body length. [ 68 ] Several rodent species have flexible mating systems that can vary between monogamy, polygyny and promiscuity. [ 68 ] Female rodents play an active role in choosing their mates. Factors that contribute to female preference may include the size, dominance and spatial ability of the male. [ 69 ] In the eusocial naked mole rats, a single female monopolizes mating from at least three males. [ 38 ] Reproductively active female naked mole-rats tend to associate with unfamiliar males (generally non-kin), whereas females that are reproductively inactive do not tend to discriminate. [ 70 ] The preference of reproductively active females for unfamiliar males is thought to be an adaptation for inbreeding avoidance, since inbreeding ordinarily leads to the expression of recessive deleterious alleles. [ 71 ] In most rodent species, such as brown rats and house mice, ovulation occurs on a regular cycle while in others, such as voles, it is induced by mating . During copulation, males of some rodent species deposit a mating plug in the female's genital opening, both to prevent sperm leakage and to protect against other males inseminating the female. Females can remove the plug and may do so either immediately or after several hours. [ 69 ] Metabolism of thyroid hormones and iodine in the mediobasal hypothalamus changes in response to photoperiod . Thyroid hormones in turn induce reproductive changes. This is found by Watanabe et al. 2004 and 2007, Barrett et al. 2007, Freeman et al. 2007, and Herwig et al. 2009 in Siberian hamsters , Revel et al. 2006 and Yasuo et al. 2007 in Syrian hamsters , Yasuo et al. 2007 and Ross et al. 2011 in rats, and Ono et al. 2008 in mice. [ 72 ] Birth and parenting Rodents may be born either altricial (blind, hairless and relatively underdeveloped) or precocial (mostly furred, eyes open and fairly developed) depending on the species. The altricial state is typical for squirrels and mice, while the precocial state usually occurs in species like guinea pigs and porcupines. Females with altricial young typically build elaborate nests before they give birth and maintain them until their offspring are weaned . The female gives birth sitting or lying down and the young emerge in the direction she is facing. The newborns first venture out of the nest a few days after they have opened their eyes and initially keep returning regularly. As they get older and more developed, they visit the nest less often and leave permanently when weaned. [ 73 ] In precocial species, the mothers invest little in nest building and some do not build nests at all. The female gives birth standing and the young emerge behind her. Mothers of these species maintain contact with their highly mobile young with maternal contact calls. Though relatively independent and weaned within days, precocial young may continue to nurse and be groomed by their mothers. Rodent litter sizes also vary and females with smaller litters spend more time in the nest than those with larger litters. [ 73 ] Mother rodents provide both direct parental care, such as nursing, grooming, retrieving and huddling, and indirect parenting, such as food caching, nest building and protection to their offspring. [ 73 ] In many social species, young may be cared for by individuals other than their parents, a practice known as alloparenting or cooperative breeding . This is known to occur in black-tailed prairie dogs and Belding's ground squirrels, where mothers have communal nests and nurse unrelated young along with their own. There is some question as to whether these mothers can distinguish which young are theirs. In the Patagonian mara , young are also placed in communal warrens, but mothers do not permit youngsters other than their own to nurse. [ 74 ] Infanticide exists in numerous rodent species and may be practiced by adult conspecifics of either sex. Several reasons have been proposed for this behavior, including nutritional stress, resource competition, avoiding misdirecting parental care and, in the case of males, attempting to make the mother sexually receptive. The latter reason is well supported in primates and lions but less so in rodents. [ 75 ] Infanticide appears to be widespread in black-tailed prairie dogs, including infanticide from invading males and immigrant females, as well as occasional cannibalism of an individual's own offspring. [ 76 ] To protect against infanticide from other adults, female rodents may employ avoidance or direct aggression against potential perpetrators, multiple mating, territoriality or early termination of pregnancy. [ 75 ] Feticide can also occur among rodents; in alpine marmots , dominant females tend to suppress the reproduction of subordinates by being antagonistic towards them while they are pregnant. The resulting stress causes the fetuses to abort. [ 77 ] Intelligence Rodents have advanced cognitive abilities. They can quickly learn to avoid poisoned baits, which makes them difficult pests to deal with. [ 1 ] Guinea pigs can learn and remember complex pathways to food. [ 78 ] Squirrels and kangaroo rats are able to locate caches of food by spatial memory , rather than just by smell. [ 79 ] [ 80 ] Because laboratory mice (house mice) and rats (brown rats) are widely used as scientific models to further our understanding of biology, a great deal has come to be known about their cognitive capacities. Brown rats exhibit cognitive bias , where information processing is biased by whether they are in a positive or negative affective state. [ 81 ] For example, laboratory rats trained to respond to a specific tone by pressing a lever to receive a reward, and to press another lever in response to a different tone so as to avoid receiving an electric shock, are more likely to respond to an intermediate tone by choosing the reward lever if they have just been tickled (something they enjoy), indicating "a link between the directly measured positive affective state and decision making under uncertainty in an animal model." [ 82 ] Laboratory (brown) rats may have the capacity for metacognition —to consider their own learning and then make decisions based on what they know, or do not know, as indicated by choices they make apparently trading off difficulty of tasks and expected rewards, making them the first animals other than primates known to have this capacity, [ 83 ] [ 84 ] but these findings are disputed, since the rats may have been following simple operant conditioning principles, [ 85 ] or a behavioral economic model. [ 86 ] Brown rats use social learning in a wide range of situations, but perhaps especially so in acquiring food preferences. [ 87 ] [ 88 ] Evolutionary history Dentition is the key feature by which fossil rodents are recognized and the earliest record of such mammals comes from the Paleocene , shortly after the extinction of the non-avian dinosaurs some 66 million years ago. These fossils are found in Laurasia , [ 89 ] the supercontinent composed of modern-day North America, Europe, and Asia. The divergence of Glires , a clade consisting of rodents and lagomorphs (rabbits, hares and pikas), from other placental mammals occurred within a few million years after the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary; rodents and lagomorphs then radiated during the Cenozoic . [ 90 ] [ 91 ] Some molecular clock data suggest modern rodents (members of the order Rodentia) had appeared by the late Cretaceous , [ 92 ] although other molecular divergence estimations are in agreement with the fossil record. [ 93 ] [ 94 ] Rodents are thought to have evolved in Asia, where local multituberculate faunas were severely affected by the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event and never fully recovered, unlike their North American and European relatives. In the resulting ecological vacuum, rodents and other Glires were able to evolve and diversify, taking the niches left by extinct multituberculates. The correlation between the spread of rodents and the demise of multituberculates is a controversial topic, not fully resolved. American and European multituberculate assemblages do decline in diversity in correlation with the introduction of rodents in these areas, but the remaining Asian multituberculates co-existed with rodents with no observable replacement taking place, and ultimately both clades co-existed for at least 15 million years. [ 95 ] The history of the colonization of the world's continents by rodents is complex. The movements of the large superfamily Muroidea (including hamsters , gerbils , true mice and rats ) may have involved up to seven colonizations of Africa, five of North America, four of Southeast Asia, two of South America and up to ten of Eurasia. [ 96 ] During the Eocene , rodents began to diversify. Beavers appeared in Eurasia in the late Eocene before spreading to North America in the late Miocene. [ 98 ] Late in the Eocene, hystricognaths invaded Africa, most probably having originated in Asia at least 39.5 million years ago. [ 99 ] From Africa, fossil evidence shows that some hystricognaths ( caviomorphs ) colonized South America , which was an isolated continent at the time, evidently making use of ocean currents to cross the Atlantic on floating debris . [ 100 ] Caviomorphs had arrived in South America by 41 million years ago (implying a date at least as early as this for hystricognaths in Africa), [ 99 ] and had reached the Greater Antilles by the early Oligocene , suggesting that they must have dispersed rapidly across South America. [ 101 ] Nesomyid rodents are thought to have rafted from Africa to Madagascar 20–24 million years ago. [ 102 ] All 27 species of native Malagasy rodents appear to be descendants of a single colonization event. By 20 million years ago, fossils recognizably belonging to the current families such as Muridae had emerged. [ 89 ] By the Miocene , when Africa had collided with Asia, African rodents such as the porcupine began to spread into Eurasia . [ 103 ] Some fossil species were very large in comparison to modern rodents and included the giant beaver, Castoroides ohioensis , which grew to a length of 2.5 m (8 ft 2 in) and weight of 100 kg (220 lb). [ 104 ] The largest known rodent was Josephoartigasia monesi , a pacarana with an estimated body length of 3 m (10 ft). [ 105 ] The first rodents arrived in Australia via Indonesia around 5 million years ago. Although marsupials are the most prominent mammals in Australia, many rodents , all belonging to the subfamily Murinae , are among the continent's mammal species . [ 106 ] There are about fifty species of 'old endemics', the first wave of rodents to colonize the country in the Miocene and early Pliocene , and eight true rat ( Rattus ) species of 'new endemics', arriving in a subsequent wave in the late Pliocene or early Pleistocene . The earliest fossil rodents in Australia have a maximum age of 4.5 million years, [ 107 ] and molecular data is consistent with the colonization of New Guinea from the west during the late Miocene or early Pliocene followed by rapid diversification. A further wave of adaptive radiation occurred after one or more colonizations of Australia some 2 to 3 million years later. [ 108 ] Rodents participated in the Great American Interchange that resulted from the joining of the Americas by formation of the Isthmus of Panama , around 3 million years ago in the Piacenzian age. [ 109 ] In this exchange, a small number of species such as the New World porcupines (Erethizontidae) headed north. [ 89 ] However, the main southward invasion of sigmodontines preceded formation of the land bridge by at least several million years, probably occurring via rafting. [ 110 ] [ 111 ] [ 112 ] Sigmodontines diversified explosively once in South America, although some degree of diversification may have already occurred in Central America before the colonization. [ 111 ] [ 112 ] Classification The use of the order name "Rodentia" is attributed to the English traveler and naturalist Thomas Edward Bowdich (1821). [ 113 ] The Modern Latin word Rodentia is derived from rōdēns , present participle of rōdere , rōdō ' to gnaw, eat away ' . [ 114 ] The hares , rabbits and pikas (order Lagomorpha) have continuously growing incisors, as do rodents, and were at one time included in the order. However, they have an additional pair of incisors in the upper jaw and the two orders have quite separate evolutionary histories. [ 115 ] The phylogeny of the rodents places them in the clades Glires, Euarchontoglires and Boreoeutheria . The cladogram below shows some of the inner and outer relations of Rodentia based on a 2012 attempt by Wu et al. to align the molecular clock with paleontological data: [ 116 ] Boreoeutheria

Nesomyidae Nesomyidae Cricetidae Muridae Cricetidae Cricetidae Muridae Muridae The order Rodentia may be divided into suborders , infraorders , superfamilies and families . There is a great deal of parallelism and convergence among rodents caused by the fact that they have tended to evolve to fill largely similar niches. This parallel evolution includes not only the structure of the teeth, but also the infraorbital region of the skull (below the eye socket) and makes classification difficult as similar traits may not be due to common ancestry. [ 118 ] [ 119 ] Brandt (1855) was the first to propose dividing Rodentia into three suborders, Sciuromorpha, Hystricomorpha and Myomorpha, based on the development of certain muscles in the jaw, and this system was widely accepted. Schlosser (1884) performed a comprehensive review of rodent fossils, mainly using the cheek teeth, and found that they fitted into the classical system, but Tullborg (1899) proposed just two sub-orders, Sciurognathi and Hystricognathi. These were based on the degree of inflection of the lower jaw and were to be further subdivided into Sciuromorpha, Myomorpha, Hystricomorpha and Bathyergomorpha. Matthew (1910) created a phylogenetic tree of New World rodents but did not include the more problematic Old World species. Further attempts at classification continued without agreement, with some authors adopting the classical three suborder system and others Tullborg's two suborders. [ 118 ] These disagreements remain unresolved, nor have molecular studies fully resolved the situation though they have confirmed the monophyly of the group and that the clade has descended from a common Paleocene ancestor. Carleton and Musser (2005) in Mammal Species of the World have provisionally adopted a five suborder system: Sciuromorpha, Castorimorpha, Myomorpha, Anomaluromorpha, and Hystricomorpha. As of 2021 the American Society of Mammalogists recognizes 34 recent families containing more than 481 genera and 2277 species. [ 120 ] [ 121 ] [ 122 ] Interaction with humans Conservation While rodents are not the most seriously threatened order of mammals, there are 168 species in 126 genera that are said to warrant conservation attention [ 123 ] in the face of limited appreciation by the public. Since 76 percent of rodent genera contain only one species, much phylogenetic diversity could be lost with a comparatively small number of extinctions. In the absence of more detailed knowledge of species at risk and accurate taxonomy, conservation must be based mainly on higher taxa (such as families rather than species) and geographical hot spots. [ 123 ] Several species of rice rat have become extinct since the 19th century, probably through habitat loss and the introduction of alien species. [ 124 ] In Colombia, the brown hairy dwarf porcupine was recorded from only two mountain localities in the 1920s, while the red crested soft-furred spiny rat is known only from its type locality on the Caribbean coast, so these species are considered vulnerable. [ 125 ] The IUCN Species Survival Commission writes "We can safely conclude that many South American rodents are seriously threatened, mainly by environmental disturbance and intensive hunting". [ 126 ] The "three now cosmopolitan commensal rodent pest species" [ 127 ] (the brown rat, the black rat and the house mouse) have been dispersed in association with humans, partly on sailing ships in the Age of Exploration , and with a fourth species in the Pacific, the Polynesian rat ( Rattus exulans ), have severely damaged island biotas around the world. For example, when the black rat reached Lord Howe Island in 1918, over 40 percent of the terrestrial bird species of the island, including the Lord Howe fantail , [ 128 ] became extinct within ten years. Similar destruction has been seen on Midway Island (1943) and Big South Cape Island (1962). Conservation projects can with careful planning completely eradicate these pest rodents from islands using an anticoagulant rodenticide such as brodifacoum . [ 127 ] This approach has been successful on the island of Lundy in the United Kingdom, where the eradication of an estimated 40,000 brown rats is giving populations of Manx shearwater and Atlantic puffin a chance to recover from near-extinction. [ 129 ] [ 130 ] Rodents have also been susceptible to climate change , especially species living on low-lying islands. The Bramble Cay melomys , which lived in the northernmost point of land of Australia , was the first mammal species to be declared extinct as a consequence of human-caused climate change . [ 131 ] Exploitation Fur Humanity has long used animal skins for clothing, as the leather is durable and the fur provides extra insulation. [ 2 ] The native people of North America made much use of beaver pelts, tanning and sewing them together to make robes. Europeans appreciated the quality of these and the North American fur trade developed and became of prime importance to early settlers. In Europe, the soft underfur known as "beaver wool" was found to be ideal for felting and was made into beaver hats and trimming for clothing. [ 132 ] [ 133 ] Later, the coypu took over as a cheaper source of fur for felting and was farmed extensively in America and Europe; however, fashions changed, new materials became available and this area of the animal fur industry declined. [ 134 ] The chinchilla has a soft and silky coat and the demand for its fur was so high that it was nearly wiped out in the wild before farming took over as the main source of pelts. [ 134 ] The quills and guardhairs of porcupines are used for traditional decorative clothing. For example, their guardhairs are used in the creation of the Native American "porky roach" headdress. The main quills may be dyed, and then applied in combination with thread to embellish leather accessories such as knife sheaths and leather bags. Lakota women would harvest the quills for quillwork by throwing a blanket over a porcupine and retrieving the quills it left stuck in the blanket. [ 135 ] Consumption At least 89 species of rodent, mostly Hystricomorpha such as guinea pigs, agoutis and capybaras, are eaten by humans; in 1985, there were at least 42 different societies in which people eat rats. [ 136 ] Guinea pigs were first raised for food around 2500 B.C. and by 1500 B.C. had become the main source of meat for the Inca Empire . Dormice were raised by the Romans in special pots called "gliraria", or in large outdoor enclosures, where they were fattened on walnuts, chestnuts, and acorns. The dormice were also caught from the wild in autumn when they were fattest, and either roasted and dipped into honey or baked while stuffed with a mixture of pork, pine nuts, and other flavorings. Researchers found that in Amazonia, where large mammals were scarce, pacas and common agoutis accounted for around 40 percent of the annual game taken by the indigenous people, but in forested areas where larger mammals were abundant, these rodents constituted only about 3 percent of the take. [ 136 ] Guinea pigs are used in the cuisine of Cuzco , Peru, in dishes such as cuy al horno , baked guinea pig. [ 2 ] [ 137 ] The traditional Andean stove, known as a qoncha or a fogón , is made from mud and clay reinforced with straw and hair from animals such as guinea pigs. [ 138 ] In Peru, there are at any time 20 million domestic guinea pigs, which annually produce 64 million edible carcasses. This animal is an excellent food source since the flesh is 19% protein. [ 136 ] In the United States, mostly squirrels, but also muskrats, porcupines, and groundhogs are eaten by humans. The Navajo people ate prairie dog baked in mud, while the Paiute ate gophers, squirrels, and rats. [ 136 ] Animal testing Rodents are used widely as model organisms in animal testing. [ 2 ] Albino mutant rats were first used for research in 1828 and later became the first animal domesticated for purely scientific purposes. [ 139 ] Nowadays, the house mouse is the most commonly used laboratory rodent, and in 1979 it was estimated that fifty million were used annually worldwide. They are favored because of their small size, fertility, short gestation period and ease of handling and because they are susceptible to many of the conditions and infections that afflict humans. They are used in research into genetics , developmental biology , cell biology , oncology and immunology . [ 140 ] Guinea pigs were popular laboratory animals until the late 20th century; about 2.5 million guinea pigs were used annually in the United States for research in the 1960s, [ 141 ] but that total decreased to about 375,000 by the mid-1990s. [ 142 ] In 2007, they constituted about 2% of all laboratory animals. [ 141 ] Guinea pigs played a major role in the establishment of germ theory in the late 19th century, through the experiments of Louis Pasteur , Émile Roux , and Robert Koch . [ 143 ] They have been launched into orbital space flight several times—first by the USSR on the Sputnik 9 biosatellite of 9 March 1961, with a successful recovery. [ 144 ] The naked mole rat is the only known mammal that is poikilothermic ; it is used in studies on thermoregulation . It is also unusual in not producing the neurotransmitter substance P , a fact which researchers find useful in studies on pain . [ 145 ] Rodents have sensitive olfactory abilities, which have been used by humans to detect odors or chemicals of interest. [ 146 ] The Gambian pouched rat is able to detect tuberculosis bacilli with a sensitivity of up to 86.6%, and specificity (detecting the absence of the bacilli) of over 93%; the same species has been trained to detect land mines . [ 147 ] [ 148 ] Rats have been studied for possible use in hazardous situations such as in disaster zones. They can be trained to respond to commands, which may be given remotely, and even persuaded to venture into brightly lit areas, which rats usually avoid. [ 149 ] [ 150 ] [ 151 ] As pets Rodents including guinea pigs, [ 152 ] mice, rats, hamsters, gerbils, chinchillas, degus and chipmunks make convenient pets able to live in small spaces, each species with its own qualities. [ 153 ] Most are normally kept in cages of suitable sizes and have varied requirements for space and social interaction. If handled from a young age, they are usually docile and do not bite. Guinea pigs have a long lifespan and need a large cage. [ 78 ] Rats also need plenty of space and can become very tame, can learn tricks and seem to enjoy human companionship. Mice are short-lived but take up very little space. Hamsters are solitary but tend to be nocturnal. They have interesting behaviors, but unless handled regularly they may be defensive. Gerbils are not usually aggressive, rarely bite and are sociable animals that enjoy the company of humans and their own kind. [ 154 ] As pests and disease vectors Some rodent species are serious agricultural pests , eating large quantities of food stored by humans. [ 155 ] For example, in 2003, the amount of rice lost to mice and rats in Asia was estimated to be enough to feed 200 million people. Most of the damage worldwide is caused by a relatively small number of species, chiefly rats and mice. [ 156 ] In Indonesia and Tanzania , rodents reduce crop yields by around fifteen percent, while in some instances in South America losses have reached ninety percent. Across Africa, rodents including Mastomys and Arvicanthis damage cereals, groundnuts, vegetables and cacao. In Asia, rats, mice and species such as Microtus brandti , Meriones unguiculatus and Eospalax baileyi damage crops of rice, sorghum , tubers, vegetables and nuts. In Europe, as well as rats and mice, species of Apodemus , Microtus and in occasional outbreaks Arvicola terrestris cause damage to orchards, vegetables and pasture as well as cereals. In South America, a wider range of rodent species, such as Holochilus , Akodon , Calomys , Oligoryzomys , Phyllotis , Sigmodon and Zygodontomys , damage many crops including sugar cane, fruits, vegetables, and tubers. [ 156 ] Rodents are also significant vectors of disease. [ 157 ] The black rat, with the fleas that it carries , plays a primary role in spreading the bacterium Yersinia pestis responsible for bubonic plague , [ 158 ] and carries the organisms responsible for typhus , Weil's disease , toxoplasmosis and trichinosis . [ 157 ] A number of rodents carry hantaviruses , including the Puumala , Dobrava and Saaremaa viruses , which can infect humans. [ 159 ] Rodents also help to transmit diseases including babesiosis , cutaneous leishmaniasis , human granulocytic anaplasmosis , Lyme disease , Omsk hemorrhagic fever , Powassan virus , rickettsialpox , relapsing fever , Rocky Mountain spotted fever , and West Nile virus . [ 160 ] Because rodents are a nuisance and endanger public health , human societies often attempt to control them. Traditionally, this involved poisoning and trapping, methods that were not always safe or effective. More recently, integrated pest management attempts to improve control with a combination of surveys to determine the size and distribution of the pest population, the establishment of tolerance limits (levels of pest activity at which to intervene), interventions, and evaluation of effectiveness based on repeated surveys. Interventions may include education, making and applying laws and regulations, modifying the habitat, changing farming practices, and biological control using pathogens or predators , as well as poisoning and trapping. [ 161 ] The use of pathogens such as Salmonella has the drawback that they can infect man and domestic animals, and rodents often become resistant. The use of predators including ferrets , mongooses and monitor lizards has been found unsatisfactory. Domestic and feral cats are able to control rodents effectively, provided the rodent population is not too large. [ 162 ] In the UK, two species in particular, the house mouse and the brown rat, are actively controlled to limit damage in growing crops, loss and contamination of stored crops and structural damage to facilities, as well as to comply with the law.

Batman was created by writer Bill Finger and artist Bob Kane , and debuted in the 27th issue of the comic book Detective Comics on March 30, 1939. In the DC Universe , Batman is the alias of Bruce Wayne , a wealthy American playboy , philanthropist , and industrialist who resides in the fictional Gotham City . His origin story features him swearing vengeance against criminals after witnessing the murder of his parents, Thomas and Martha , as a child, a vendetta tempered by the ideal of justice . He trains himself physically and intellectually, crafts a bat-inspired persona , and monitors the Gotham streets at night. Kane, Finger, and other creators accompanied Batman with supporting characters , including his sidekicks Robin and Batgirl ; allies Alfred Pennyworth and James Gordon ; love interest and occasional adversary Catwoman ; as well as foes such as the Penguin , the Riddler , Two-Face , and his archenemy , the Joker . Kane conceived Batman in early 1939 to capitalize on the popularity of Superman ; although Kane frequently claimed sole creation credit, Finger substantially developed the concept from a generic superhero into something more bat -like. They drew inspiration from pulp fiction characters like the Shadow , Sherlock Holmes , and the Green Hornet . Batman received a spin-off publication, Batman , in 1940. Kane and Finger introduced Batman as a ruthless vigilante who frequently killed or maimed criminals, but he evolved into a just, tempered superhero with a stringent moral code that prohibits killing during the 1940s. Unlike most superheroes, Batman does not possess any superpowers , instead relying on his intellect, fighting skills, and wealth. The 1960s Batman television series used a camp aesthetic, which continued to be associated with Batman for years after it ended. Various creators worked to return Batman to his darker roots in the 1970s and 1980s, culminating with the 1986 miniseries The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller . DC has featured Batman in many comic books , including comics published under its imprints such as Vertigo and Black Label ; he has been considered DC's flagship character [ 4 ] [ 5 ] since the 1990s. The longest-running Batman comic, Detective Comics , is the longest-running comic book in the United States. Batman is frequently depicted alongside other DC superheroes, such as Superman and Wonder Woman , as a member of organizations such as the Justice League and the Outsiders . In addition to Bruce Wayne, other characters used the Batman persona, such as Jean-Paul Valley / Azrael in the 1993–1994 " Knightfall " story arc; Dick Grayson , the first Robin, from 2009 to 2011; and Jace Fox , the son of Wayne's ally Lucius , since 2021. [ 6 ] DC has also published comics featuring alternate versions of Batman, including the incarnation seen in The Dark Knight Returns and its successors, the incarnation from the Flashpoint (2011) event, and numerous interpretations in comics published under the Elseworlds label. Batman is one of the most iconic characters in popular culture and has been listed among the greatest comic book superheroes and characters ever created. He is one of the most commercially successful superheroes, the second best-selling comic book series in history with 460 million copies sold worldwide, [ 7 ] and his likeness has been licensed and featured in various media and merchandise sold around the world; this includes toy lines such as Lego Batman and video games such as the Batman: Arkham series. Batman has been adapted in many live-action and animated television series and films. Adam West portrayed him in the 1960s Batman television series, and he has been portrayed in films by Michael Keaton , Val Kilmer , George Clooney , Christian Bale , Ben Affleck , and Robert Pattinson . Many actors, most prolifically Kevin Conroy , have provided Batman's voice in animation and video games. In September 2024, Batman was given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame , being the first superhero to receive the honor. Publication history Creation and early history In early 1939, following the success of Superman , DC Comics ' editors requested more superheroes. [ 8 ] Bob Kane created Batman, initially drawing a character with red tights, bat wings, and a domino mask. Bill Finger , a collaborator, made significant contributions by suggesting a cowl, cape, gloves, and a darker costume. [ 9 ] The character's alter ego, Bruce Wayne, was inspired by historical figures Robert the Bruce and Mad Anthony Wayne . [ 10 ] Batman's early adventures drew inspiration from contemporary pulp fiction and characters like Zorro and the Shadow, establishing Batman as a master detective with a dark, brooding persona driven by the murder of his parents. [ 11 ] [ 12 ] Golden, Silver and Bronze Ages Batman debuted in Detective Comics #27 in 1939. Early stories were dark, featuring a Batman who did not shy away from killing. The character quickly became popular, leading to his own solo title in 1940. Robin, Batman's sidekick, was introduced in 1940, lightening the tone and boosting sales. Over the next few years, Batman's rogues' gallery expanded with iconic villains like the Joker and Catwoman. The 1950s saw Batman in lighter, science fiction-influenced stories. However, declining sales led to a 1964 revamp by editor Julius Schwartz, who returned Batman to his detective roots and updated his appearance. The 1966 Batman TV series introduced a campy, humorous tone, which was reflected in the comics until its cancellation in 1968. In the 1970s, writers Dennis O'Neil and Neal Adams restored Batman's dark, gritty nature, a trend that continued despite fluctuating sales. Modern Age and reboots In the Modern Age of Comic Books Batman comics have undergone significant transformations, reflecting changing storytelling trends and audience interests. Beginning with seminal works like The Dark Knight Returns in the 1980s, [ 13 ] which reintroduced Batman in a grittier, more mature context, the character's narrative evolved to explore deeper themes and darker tones. [ 14 ] This period also saw the exploration of Batman's origins and psyche through works like Batman: Year One , [ 14 ] [ 15 ] and Batman: The Killing Joke , which delved into the complexities of heroism and villainy. [ 16 ] In the 1990s, storylines such as " Knightfall " introduced new adversaries like Bane, who physically and mentally challenged Batman, leading to a temporary replacement by Jean-Paul Valley. The aftermath of an earthquake in "No Man's Land" depicted Gotham City in chaos, further pushing Batman to new limits of heroism and survival. [ 17 ] Entering the 21st century, Grant Morrison 's influential run introduced Damian Wayne as Batman's son and heir, bringing familial dynamics and a new generation of challenges to the forefront. Morrison's storytelling also delved into surreal and existential themes, such as in Batman R.I.P. and Final Crisis , which tested Batman's resolve and sanity against cosmic threats and personal demons. [ 18 ] [ 19 ] The New 52 reboot in 2011 refreshed Batman's continuity while preserving core elements of his character. This era introduced modern interpretations of classic storylines, like Night of the Owls , where Batman confronts the Court of Owls, a clandestine society controlling Gotham for centuries. The chilling return of the Joker in "Death of the Family" explored the intricate relationships within Batman's extended family of allies and adversaries. More recent developments under DC Rebirth and Infinite Frontier have continued to evolve Batman's universe, exploring new characters like Gotham and Gotham Girl , and tackling contemporary issues within the context of Gotham City's ever-evolving landscape of crime and heroism. [ 20 ] Characterization Bruce Wayne Batman's secret identity is Bruce Wayne, a wealthy American industrialist. As a child, Bruce witnessed the murder of his parents, Dr. Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne , which ultimately led him to craft the Batman persona and seek justice against criminals. He resides on the outskirts of Gotham City in his personal residence, Wayne Manor . Wayne averts suspicion by acting the part of a superficial playboy idly living off his family's fortune and the profits of Wayne Enterprises , his inherited conglomerate. [ 21 ] [ 22 ] He supports philanthropic causes through his nonprofit Wayne Foundation, which in part addresses social issues encouraging crime as well as assisting victims of it, but is more widely known as a celebrity socialite. [ 23 ] In public, he frequently appears in the company of high-status women, which encourages tabloid gossip. He feigns near-drunkenness by consuming large quantities of disguised ginger ale , though he is a teetotalor to maintain his physical and mental prowess. [ 24 ] Although Bruce Wayne leads an active romantic life, his vigilante activities as Batman account for most of his time. [ 25 ] While Bruce Wayne is never depicted as being especially religious, he is ethnically Jewish on his mother's side; [ 26 ] [ 27 ] his maternal cousin Batwoman (Kate Kane) is practising. His father, Thomas , raised Bruce as a Christian, but as an adult he doesn't follow any religion. [ 26 ] [ 28 ] Various modern stories have portrayed the extravagant, playboy image of Bruce Wayne as a facade. [ 29 ] This is in contrast to the Post- Crisis Superman, whose Clark Kent persona is the true identity, while the Superman persona is the facade. [ 30 ] [ 31 ] In Batman Unmasked , a television documentary about the psychology of the character, behavioral scientist Benjamin Karney notes that Batman's personality is driven by Bruce Wayne's inherent humanity; that "Batman, for all its benefits and for all of the time Bruce Wayne devotes to it, is ultimately a tool for Bruce Wayne's efforts to make the world better". Bruce Wayne's principles include the desire to prevent future harm and a vow not to kill. Bruce Wayne believes that our actions define us, we fail for a reason, and anything is possible. [ 32 ] Writers of Batman and Superman stories have often compared and contrasted the two. Interpretations vary depending on the writer, the story, and the timing. Grant Morrison [ 33 ] notes that both heroes "believe in the same kind of things" despite the day/night contrast their heroic roles display. Morrison notes an equally stark contrast in their real identities. Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent belong to different social classes: "Bruce has a butler, Clark has a boss." T. James Musler's book Unleashing the Superhero in Us All explores the extent to which Bruce Wayne's vast personal wealth is important in his life story, and the crucial role it plays in his efforts as Batman. [ 34 ] Will Brooker notes in his book Batman Unmasked that "the confirmation of the Batman's identity lies with the young audience ...he doesn't have to be Bruce Wayne; he just needs the suit and gadgets, the abilities, and most importantly the morality, the humanity. There's just a sense about him: 'they trust him ...and they're never wrong." [ 35 ] Personality Batman's primary character traits can be summarized as "wealth; physical prowess; deductive abilities and obsession" . [ 36 ] The details and tone of Batman comic books have varied over the years with different creative teams. Dennis O'Neil noted that character consistency was not a major concern during early editorial regimes: " Julie Schwartz did a Batman in Batman and Detective and Murray Boltinoff did a Batman in the Brave and the Bold and apart from the costume they bore very little resemblance to each other. Julie and Murray did not want to coordinate their efforts, nor were they asked to do so. Continuity was not important in those days." [ 37 ] The driving force behind Bruce Wayne's character is his parents' murder and their absence. Bob Kane and Bill Finger discussed Batman's background and decided that "there's nothing more traumatic than having your parents murdered before your eyes". [ 38 ] Despite his trauma, he sets his mind on studying to become a scientist [ 39 ] [ 40 ] and to train his body into physical perfection [ 39 ] [ 40 ] to fight crime in Gotham City as Batman, an inspired idea from Wayne's insight into the criminal mind. [ 39 ] [ 40 ] He also speaks over 40 languages. [ 41 ] Another of Batman's characterizations is that of a vigilante; in order to stop evil that started with the death of his parents, he must sometimes break the law himself. Although manifested differently by being re-told by different artists, it is nevertheless that the details and the prime components of Batman's origin have never varied at all in the comic books, the "reiteration of the basic origin events holds together otherwise divergent expressions". [ 42 ] The origin is the source of the character's traits and attributes, which play out in many of the character's adventures. [ 36 ] Batman is often treated as a vigilante by other characters in his stories. Frank Miller views the character as "a dionysian figure, a force for anarchy that imposes an individual order". [ 43 ] Dressed as a bat, Batman deliberately cultivates a frightening persona in order to aid him in crime-fighting, [ 44 ] a fear that originates from the criminals' own guilty conscience . [ 45 ] Miller is often credited with reintroducing anti-heroic traits into Batman's characterization, [ 46 ] such as his brooding personality, willingness to use violence and torture, and increasingly alienated behavior. Batman, shortly a year after his debut and the introduction of Robin, was changed in 1940 after DC editor Whitney Ellsworth felt the character would be tainted by his lethal methods and DC established their own ethical code, subsequently he was retconned to have a stringent moral code, [ 47 ] [ 48 ] which has stayed with the character of Batman ever since. Miller's Batman was closer to the original pre-Robin version, who was willing to kill criminals if necessary. [ 49 ] Others On several occasions former Robin Dick Grayson has served as Batman; most notably in 2009 while Wayne was believed dead, and served as a second Batman even after Wayne returned in 2010. [ 50 ] As part of DC's 2011 continuity relaunch , Grayson returned to being Nightwing following the Flashpoint crossover event. In an interview with IGN , Morrison detailed that having Dick Grayson as Batman and Damian Wayne as Robin represented a "reverse" of the normal dynamic between Batman and Robin, with, "a more light-hearted and spontaneous Batman and a scowling, badass Robin". Morrison explained their intentions for the new characterization of Batman: "Dick Grayson is kind of this consummate superhero. The guy has been Batman's partner since he was a kid, he's led the Teen Titans , and he's trained with everybody in the DC Universe. So he's a very different kind of Batman. He's a lot easier; He's a lot looser and more relaxed." [ 51 ] Over the years, there have been numerous others to assume the name of Batman, or to officially take over for Bruce during his leaves of absence. Jean-Paul Valley, also known as Azrael , assumed the cowl after the events of the Knightfall saga. [ 50 ] Jim Gordon donned a mecha-suit after the events of Batman: Endgame , and served as Batman in 2015 and 2016. In 2021, as part of the Fear State crossover event, Lucius Fox 's son Jace Fox succeeds Bruce as Batman in a 2021 storyline, depicted in the series I Am Batman , after Batman was declared dead. Additionally, members of the group Batman Incorporated , Bruce Wayne's experiment at franchising his brand of vigilantism, have at times stood in as the official Batman in cities around the world. [ 50 ] Various others have also taken up the role of Batman in stories set in alternative universes and possible futures, including, among them, various former proteges of Bruce Wayne. Supporting characters Batman's interactions with both villains and cohorts have, over time, developed a strong supporting cast of characters. [ 36 ] Enemies Batman faces a variety of foes ranging from common criminals to outlandish supervillains. Many of them mirror aspects of the Batman's character and development, often having tragic origin stories that lead them to a life of crime. [ 52 ] These foes are commonly referred to as Batman's rogues gallery . Batman's "most implacable foe" is the Joker , a homicidal maniac with a clown-like appearance. The Joker is considered by critics to be his perfect adversary, since he is the antithesis of Batman in personality and appearance; the Joker has a maniacal demeanor with a colorful appearance, while Batman has a serious and resolute demeanor with a dark appearance. As a "personification of the irrational", the Joker represents "everything Batman [opposes]". [ 53 ] Other long-time recurring foes that are part of Batman's rogues gallery include Catwoman (a cat burglar anti-heroine who is variously an ally and romantic interest), the Penguin , Ra's al Ghul , Two-Face (Harvey Dent), the Riddler , the Scarecrow , Mr. Freeze , Poison Ivy , Harley Quinn , Bane , Clayface , and Killer Croc , among others. Many of Batman's adversaries are often psychiatric patients at Arkham Asylum . Allies Alfred Pennyworth , Batman's loyal butler and father figure, first appeared in Batman #16 (1943). After Bruce Wayne's parents were killed, Alfred raised Bruce and became one of the few people to know his secret identity. He is often portrayed as a steadying presence in Bruce's life, offering both emotional support and practical assistance in Batman's crime-fighting endeavors. More than just a caretaker, Alfred is a trusted ally and sometimes sidekick, sharing Wayne Manor with Bruce and contributing to Batman's mission. [ 52 ] One of Batman's most crucial allies is Commissioner James Gordon . Their relationship is built on mutual respect and a shared commitment to justice in Gotham City. In Batman: Year One , Gordon and Batman learn to trust each other, which transforms their efforts against crime into a more effective partnership. Gordon's perspective as a police officer complements Batman's vigilantism, allowing them to tackle Gotham's challenges together. Another important ally is the Justice League , which further emphasizes the importance of collaboration. Batman's relationship with Superman showcases how their contrasting ideologies can complement each other. In stories like World's Finest , their friendship highlights how Batman's methods benefit from Superman's optimism and strength. [ 54 ] Sidekicks Robin, Batman's vigilante partner, has been a widely recognized supporting character for many years; each iteration of the Robin character, of which there have been five in the mainstream continuity, function as members of the Batman family, but additionally, as Batman's "central" sidekick in various media. [ 55 ] Bill Finger stated that he wanted to include Robin because "Batman didn't have anyone to talk to, and it got a little tiresome always having him thinking." [ 56 ] The first Robin, Dick Grayson , was introduced in 1940. In the 1970s he finally grew up, went off to college and became the hero Nightwing . A second Robin, Jason Todd was introduced in the 1980s, following Dick Grayson's departure from the role. Initially impulsive and rebellious, Jason's tenure as Robin was controversial among fans. In 1988, DC held a fan vote to determine his fate in the iconic A Death in the Family storyline, where the Joker brutally beat Jason with a crowbar and left him to die in an explosion. The fans voted for his death. However, Jason was later resurrected and returned as the antihero Red Hood . [ 57 ] The third Robin in the mainstream comics is Tim Drake , who first appeared in 1989. He went on to star in his own comic series, and goes by the name Red Robin , a variation on the traditional Robin persona. In the first decade of the new millennium, Stephanie Brown served as the fourth in-universe Robin between stints as her self-made vigilante identity the Spoiler, and later as Batgirl . [ 58 ] After Brown's apparent death, Drake resumed the role of Robin for a time. The role eventually passed to Damian Wayne , the 10-year-old son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul , in the late 2000s. [ 59 ] Damian's tenure as du jour Robin ended when the character was killed off in the pages of Batman Incorporated in 2013. [ 60 ] Batman's next young sidekick is Harper Row , a streetwise young woman who avoids the name Robin but followed the ornithological theme nonetheless; she debuted the codename and identity of the Bluebird in 2014. Unlike the Robins, the Bluebird is willing and permitted to use a gun, albeit non-lethal ; her weapon of choice is a modified rifle that fires taser rounds. [ 61 ] In 2015, a new series began titled We Are...Robin , focused on a group of teenagers using the Robin persona to fight crime in Gotham City. The most prominent of these, Duke Thomas , later becomes Batman's crimefighting partner as The Signal. [ 62 ] Romantic interests Batman's first love interest was Julie Madison , an actress introduced in Detective Comics #31 (1939), they ultimately got engaged, and later she left him due to his playboy persona. [ 63 ] Following The New 52 DC relaunch, the character was reintroduced as an artist whose father was a gunrunner involved in the death of Bruce's parents. [ 63 ] Catwoman/Selina Kyle debuting in Batman #1 (1940), during the Golden Age of Comics . [ 63 ] She was created in the pre– Comics Code era and portrayed as a "flirtatious and sensual" character to add a layer of sex appeal to Batman. [ 64 ] The two ultimately got engaged during the DC Rebirth relaunch. [ 63 ] Another love interest is intrepid reporter Vicki Vale , who debuted in Batman #49 (1948), and was inspired by Superman ’s love interest, reporter Lois Lane . Vicki frequently tried to prove that Bruce Wayne was Batman, but never succeeded. [ 63 ] This was followed by Linda Page , who debuted in Batman #5 (1941) as a rich socialite turned nurse. [ 63 ] Kathy Kane/Batwoman debuted in Detective Comics #233 (1956) alongside her sister Bette Kane . Kathy was introduced as a love interest for Batman, following allegations of homosexuality between Batman and Robin. [ 63 ] The character was written out in the 1960s and returned in the 1970s to be killed by the League of Assassins . Writer Grant Morrison later brought Kathy back into DC's continuity in Batman, Inc. , as part of his attempts to canonize every Batman story, but she was ultimately killed off again. [ 63 ] Talia al Ghul , introduced in Detective Comics #411 (1971) as the daughter of Batman's enemy Ra's al Ghul . Their love story resulted in the birth of Damian Wayne , who would later become Robin . [ 63 ] [ 65 ] Natalia Knight/Nocturna , debuted in Detective Comics #529 (1983) as the leader of a criminal organization. She became Batman's love interest and later the adopted mother of Jason Todd . Nocturna was later killed by her former lover, Night-Slayer , but returned in subsequent continuity. [ 63 ] Abilities Skills and training Batman has no inherent superhuman powers; he relies on "his own scientific knowledge, detective skills, and athletic prowess". [ 66 ] Batman's inexhaustible wealth gives him access to advanced technologies, and as a proficient scientist , he is able to use and modify these technologies to his advantage. In the stories, Batman is regarded as one of the world's greatest detectives, if not the world's greatest crime solver. [ 67 ] Batman has been repeatedly described as having a genius-level intellect, being one of the greatest martial artists in the DC Universe, and having peak human physical and mental conditioning. [ 68 ] As a polymath , his knowledge and expertise in countless disciplines is nearly unparalleled by any other character in the DC Universe. He has shown prowess in assorted fields such as mathematics, biology, physics, chemistry, and several levels of engineering. [ 69 ] He has traveled the world acquiring the skills needed to aid him in his endeavors as Batman. In the Superman: Doomed story arc, Superman considers Batman to be one of the most brilliant minds on the planet. [ 70 ] Batman has trained extensively in various fighting styles, making him one of the best hand-to-hand fighters in the DC Universe. He possesses a photographic memory , [ 71 ] and has fully utilized his photographic memory to master a total of 127 forms of martial arts. [ 72 ] In terms of his physical condition, Batman is described as peak human and far beyond an Olympic-athlete-level condition, able to perform feats such as easily running across rooftops in a Parkour -esque fashion, pressing thousands of pounds regularly, and even bench pressing six hundred pounds of soil and coffin in a poisoned and starved state. Superman describes Batman as "the most dangerous man on Earth", able to defeat an entire team of superpowered extraterrestrials by himself in order to rescue his imprisoned teammates in Grant Morrison's first storyline in JLA . Batman is strongly disciplined, and he has the ability to function under great physical pain and resist most forms of telepathy and mind control . He is a master of disguise , multilingual, and an expert in espionage , often gathering information under the identity of a notorious gangster named Matches Malone. Batman is highly skilled in stealth movement and escapology , which allows him to appear and disappear at will and to break free of nearly inescapable deathtraps with little to no harm. He is also a master strategist, considered DC's greatest tactician, with numerous plans in preparation for almost any eventuality. Batman is an expert in interrogation techniques and his intimidating and frightening appearance alone is often all that is needed in getting information from suspects. Despite having the potential to harm his enemies, Batman's most defining characteristic is his strong commitment to justice and his reluctance to take a life. This unyielding moral rectitude has earned him the respect of several heroes in the DC Universe, most notably that of Superman and Wonder Woman . Among physical and other crime fighting related training, he is also proficient at other types of skills. Some of these include being a licensed pilot (in order to operate the Batplane ), as well as being able to operate other types of machinery. In some publications, he even underwent some magician training. Technology Batman utilizes a vast arsenal of specialized, high-tech vehicles and gadgets in his war against crime, the designs of which usually share a bat motif. Batman historian Les Daniels credits Gardner Fox with creating the concept of Batman's arsenal with the introduction of the utility belt in Detective Comics #29 (July 1939) and the first bat-themed weapons the batarang and the "Batgyro" in Detective Comics #31 and 32 (Sept. and October 1939). [ 73 ] Batman's batsuit aids in his combat against enemies, having the properties of both Kevlar and Nomex . It protects him from gunfire and other significant impacts, and incorporates the imagery of a bat in order to frighten criminals. [ 74 ] The details of the Batman costume change repeatedly through various decades, stories, media and artists' interpretations, but the most distinctive elements remain consistent: a scallop-hem cape; a cowl covering most of the face; a pair of bat-like ears; a stylized bat emblem on the chest; and the ever-present utility belt. His gloves typically feature three scallops that protrude from long, gauntlet-like cuffs, although in his earliest appearances he wore short, plain gloves without the scallops. [ 75 ] The overall look of the character, particularly the length of the cowl's ears and of the cape, varies greatly depending on the artist. Dennis O'Neil said, "We now say that Batman has two hundred suits hanging in the Batcave so they don't have to look the same ...Everybody loves to draw Batman, and everybody wants to put their own spin on it." [ 76 ] Finger and Kane originally conceptualized Batman as having a black cape and cowl and grey suit, but conventions in coloring called for black to be highlighted with blue. [ 74 ] Hence, the costume's colors have appeared in the comics as dark blue and grey; [ 74 ] as well as black and grey. In the Tim Burton 's Batman and Batman Returns films, Batman has been depicted as completely black with a bat in the middle surrounded by a yellow background. Christopher Nolan 's The Dark Knight Trilogy depicted Batman wearing high-tech gear painted completely black with a black bat in the middle. Ben Affleck 's Batman in the DC Extended Universe films wears a suit grey in color with a black cowl, cape, and bat symbol. Seemingly following the suit of the DC Extended Universe outfit, Robert Pattinson 's uniform in The Batman restores the more traditional gray bodysuit and black appendage design, notably different from prior iterations by mostly utilizing real world armor and apparel pieces from modern military and motorcycle gear. Batman's primary vehicle is the Batmobile , which is usually depicted as an imposing black car, often with tailfins that suggest a bat's wings. Batman also has an aircraft called the Batplane (originally a relatively traditionally, but bat-motifed plane, later seen as the much more unique "Batwing" starting in the 1989 film ), along with various other means of transportation. In proper practice, the "bat" prefix (as in Batmobile or batarang) is rarely used by Batman himself when referring to his equipment, particularly after some portrayals (primarily the 1960s Batman live-action television show and the Super Friends animated series) stretched the practice to campy proportions. For example, the 1960s television show depicted a Batboat, Bat-Sub , and Batcycle, among other bat-themed vehicles. The 1960s television series Batman has an arsenal that includes such "bat-" names as the Bat-computer, Bat-scanner, bat-radar, bat-cuffs, bat-pontoons, bat-drinking water dispenser, bat-camera with polarized bat-filter, bat- shark repellent bat-spray, and Bat-rope. The storyline "A Death in the Family" suggests that given Batman's grim nature, he is unlikely to have adopted the "bat" prefix on his own. In The Dark Knight Returns , Batman tells Carrie Kelley that the original Robin came up with the name "Batmobile" when he was young, since that is what a kid would call Batman's vehicle. The Batmobile, which was before frequently depicted to resemble a sports car , was redesigned in 2011 when DC Comics relaunched its entire line of comic books, with the Batmobile being given heavier armor and new aesthetics. Batman keeps most of his field equipment in his utility belt . Over the years it has shown to contain an assortment of crime-fighting tools, weapons, and investigative and technological instruments. Different versions of the belt have these items stored in compartments, often as pouches or hard cylinders attached evenly around it. Since the 1989 film , Batman is often depicted as carrying a projectile which shoots a retractable grappling hook attached to a cable (before this, a he employed a traditionally thrown grappling hook.) This allows him to attach to distant objects, be propelled into the air, and thus swing from the rooftops of Gotham City. An exception to the range of Batman's equipment are hand guns , which he refuses to use on principle, since a gun was used in his parents' murder. In modern stories in terms of his vehicles, Batman compromises on that principle to install weapon systems on them for the purpose of non-lethally disabling other vehicles, forcing entry into locations and attacking dangerous targets too large to defeat by other means. When Batman is needed, the Gotham City police activate a searchlight with a bat-shaped insignia over the lens called the Bat-Signal, which shines into the night sky, creating a bat-symbol on a passing cloud which can be seen from any point in Gotham. The origin of the signal varies, depending on the continuity and medium. In various incarnations, most notably the 1960s Batman TV series , Commissioner Gordon also has a dedicated phone line, dubbed the Bat-Phone, connected to a bright red telephone (in the TV series) which sits on a wooden base and has a transparent top. The line connects directly to Batman's residence, Wayne Manor , specifically both to a similar phone sitting on the desk in Bruce Wayne's study and the extension phone in the Batcave. The Batcave is Batman's secret headquarters, consisting of a series of caves beneath his mansion, Wayne Manor . As his command center, the Batcave serves multiple purposes; supercomputer, surveillance, redundant power-generators, forensics lab, medical infirmary, private study, training dojo, fabrication workshop, arsenal, hangar and garage. It houses the vehicles and equipment Batman uses in his campaign to fight crime. It is also a trophy room and storage facility for Batman's unique memorabilia collected over the years from various cases he has worked on. In both the comic book Batman: Shadow of the Bat #45 and the 2005 film Batman Begins , the cave is said to have been part of the Underground Railroad . Fictional character biography Batman's history has undergone many retroactive continuity revisions, both minor and major. Elements of the character's history have varied greatly. Scholars William Uricchio and Roberta E. Pearson noted in the early 1990s, "Unlike some fictional characters, the Batman has no primary urtext set in a specific period, but has rather existed in a plethora of equally valid texts constantly appearing over more than five decades." [ 77 ] 20th century Origin The central fixed event in the Batman stories is the character's origin story . [ 36 ] As a young boy, Bruce Wayne was horrified and traumatized when he watched his parents, the physician Dr. Thomas Wayne and his wife Martha , murdered with a gun by a mugger named Joe Chill . Batman refuses to utilize any sort of gun on the principle that a gun was used to murder his parents. This event drove him to train his body to its peak condition and fight crime in Gotham City as Batman. Pearson and Uricchio also noted beyond the origin story and such events as the introduction of Robin, "Until recently, the fixed and accruing and hence, canonized, events have been few in number", [ 36 ] a situation altered by an increased effort by later Batman editors such as Dennis O'Neil to ensure consistency and continuity between stories. [ 78 ] Golden Age In Batman's first appearance in Detective Comics #27, he is already operating as a crime-fighter. [ 79 ] Batman's origin is first presented in Detective Comics #33 (November 1939) and is later expanded upon in Batman #47. As these comics state, Bruce Wayne is born to Dr. Thomas Wayne and his wife Martha, two very wealthy and charitable Gotham City socialites. Bruce is brought up in Wayne Manor , and leads a happy and privileged existence until the age of 8, when his parents are killed by a small-time criminal named Joe Chill while on their way home from a movie theater. That night, Bruce Wayne swears an oath to spend his life fighting crime. He engages in intense intellectual and physical training; however, he realizes that these skills alone would not be enough. "Criminals are a superstitious cowardly lot", Wayne remarks, "so my disguise must be able to strike terror into their hearts. I must be a creature of the night, black, terrible ..." As if responding to his desires, a bat suddenly flies through the window, inspiring Bruce to craft the Batman persona. [ 80 ] In early strips, Batman's career as a vigilante earns him the ire of the police. During this period, Bruce Wayne has a fiancé named Julie Madison . [ 81 ] In Detective Comics #38, Wayne takes in an orphaned circus acrobat, Dick Grayson , who becomes his vigilante partner, Robin . Batman also becomes a founding member of the Justice Society of America , [ 82 ] although he, like Superman, is an honorary member, [ 83 ] and thus only participates occasionally. Batman's relationship with the law thaws quickly, and he is made an honorary member of Gotham City's police department . [ 84 ] During this time, Alfred Pennyworth arrives at Wayne Manor, and after deducing the Dynamic Duo's secret identities, joins their service as their butler. [ 85 ] Silver Age The Silver Age of Comic Books in DC Comics is sometimes held to have begun in 1956 when the publisher introduced Barry Allen as a new, updated version of the Flash . Batman is not significantly changed by the late 1950s for the continuity which would be later referred to as Earth-One . The lighter tone Batman had taken in the period between the Golden and Silver Ages led to the stories of the late 1950s and early 1960s that often feature many science-fiction elements, and Batman is not significantly updated in the manner of other characters until Detective Comics #327 (May 1964), in which Batman reverts to his detective roots, with most science-fiction elements jettisoned from the series. After the introduction of DC Comics' Multiverse in the 1960s, DC established that stories from the Golden Age star the Earth-Two Batman , a character from a parallel world. This version of Batman partners with and marries the reformed Earth-Two Catwoman (Selina Kyle). The two have a daughter, Helena Wayne , who becomes the Huntress. She assumes the position as Gotham's protector along with Dick Grayson, the Earth-Two Robin , once Bruce Wayne retires to become police commissioner. Wayne holds the position of police commissioner until he is killed during one final adventure as Batman. Batman titles, however, often ignored that a distinction had been made between the pre-revamp and post-revamp Batmen (since unlike the Flash or Green Lantern , Batman comics had been published without interruption through the 1950s) and would occasionally make reference to stories from the Golden Age. [ 86 ] Nevertheless, details of Batman's history were altered or expanded upon through the decades. Additions include meetings with a future Superman during his youth, his upbringing by his uncle Philip Wayne (introduced in Batman #208 (February 1969)) after his parents' death, and appearances of his father and himself as prototypical versions of Batman and Robin, respectively. [ 87 ] [ 88 ] In 1980, then-editor Paul Levitz commissioned the Untold Legend of the Batman miniseries to thoroughly chronicle Batman's origin and history. Batman meets and regularly works with other heroes during the Silver Age, most notably Superman, whom he began regularly working alongside in a series of team-ups in World's Finest Comics , starting in 1954 and continuing through the series' cancellation in 1986. Batman and Superman are usually depicted as close friends. As a founding member of the Justice League of America, Batman appears in its first story, in 1960's The Brave and the Bold #28. In the 1970s and 1980s, The Brave and the Bold became a Batman title, in which Batman teams up with a different DC Universe superhero each month. Bronze Age In 1969, Dick Grayson attends college as part of DC Comics' effort to revise the Batman comics. Additionally, Batman also moves from his mansion, Wayne Manor into a penthouse apartment atop the Wayne Foundation building in downtown Gotham City, in order to be closer to Gotham City's crime. In 1974's "Night of the Stalker" storyline, a diploma on the wall reveals Bruce Wayne as a graduate of Yale Law School . [ 89 ] Batman spends the 1970s and early 1980s mainly working solo, with occasional team-ups with Robin or Batgirl. Batman's adventures also become somewhat darker and more grim during this period, depicting increasingly violent crimes, including the first appearance (since the early Golden Age) of the Joker as a homicidal psychopath , and the arrival of Ra's al Ghul , a centuries-old terrorist who knows Batman's secret identity. In the 1980s, Dick Grayson becomes Nightwing . [ 90 ] In the final issue of The Brave and the Bold in 1983, Batman quits the Justice League and forms a new group called the Outsiders . He serves as the team's leader until Batman and the Outsiders #32 (1986) and the comic subsequently changed its title. Modern Age After the 12-issue miniseries Crisis on Infinite Earths , DC Comics retconned the histories of some major characters in an attempt at updating them for contemporary audiences. Frank Miller retold Batman's origin in the storyline " Year One " from Batman #404–407, which emphasizes a grittier tone in the character. [ 91 ] Though the Earth-Two Batman is erased from history, many stories of Batman's Silver Age/Earth-One career (along with an amount of Golden Age ones) remain canonical in the post- Crisis universe, with his origins remaining the same in essence, despite alteration. For example, Gotham's police are mostly corrupt, setting up further need for Batman's existence. The guardian Phillip Wayne is removed, leaving young Bruce to be raised by Alfred Pennyworth. Additionally, Batman is no longer a founding member of the Justice League of America, although he becomes leader for a short time of a new incarnation of the team launched in 1987. To help fill in the revised backstory for Batman following Crisis , DC launched a new Batman title called Legends of the Dark Knight in 1989 and has published various miniseries and one-shot stories since then that largely take place during the "Year One" period. [ 92 ] Subsequently, Batman begins exhibiting an excessive, reckless approach to his crimefighting, a result of the pain of losing Jason Todd . Batman works solo until the decade's close, when Tim Drake becomes the new Robin. [ 93 ] Many of the major Batman storylines since the 1990s have been intertitle crossovers that run for a number of issues. In 1993, DC published " Knightfall ". During the storyline's first phase, the new villain Bane paralyzes Batman, leading Wayne to ask Azrael to take on the role. After the end of "Knightfall", the storylines split in two directions, following both the Azrael-Batman's adventures, and Bruce Wayne's quest to become Batman once more. The story arcs realign in "KnightsEnd", as Azrael becomes increasingly violent and is defeated by a healed Bruce Wayne. Wayne hands the Batman mantle to Dick Grayson (then Nightwing) for an interim period, while Wayne trains for a return to the role. [ 94 ] The 1994 company-wide crossover storyline Zero Hour: Crisis in Time! changes aspects of DC continuity again, including those of Batman. Noteworthy among these changes is that the general populace and the criminal element now consider Batman an urban legend rather than a known force. Batman once again becomes a member of the Justice League during Grant Morrison's 1996 relaunch of the series, titled JLA . During this time, Gotham City faces catastrophe in the decade's closing crossover arc. In 1998's " Cataclysm " storyline, Gotham City is devastated by an earthquake and ultimately cut off from the United States. Deprived of many of his technological resources, Batman fights to reclaim the city from legions of gangs during 1999's " No Man's Land ". Meanwhile, Batman's relationship with the Gotham City Police Department changed for the worse with the events of "Batman: Officer Down" and "Batman: War Games/War Crimes"; Batman's long-time law enforcement allies Commissioner Gordon and Harvey Bullock are forced out of the police department in "Officer Down", while "War Games" and "War Crimes" saw Batman become a wanted fugitive after a contingency plan of his to neutralize Gotham City's criminal underworld is accidentally triggered, resulting in a massive gang war that ends with Black Mask becoming the undisputed ruler of the city's criminal gangs. Lex Luthor arranges for the murder of Batman's on-again, off-again love interest Vesper Fairchild (introduced in the mid-1990s) during the "Bruce Wayne: Murderer?" and " Bruce Wayne: Fugitive " story arcs. Though Batman is able to clear his name, he loses another ally in the form of his new bodyguard Sasha Bordeaux , who is recruited into the organization Checkmate while stuck in prison due to her refusal to turn state's evidence against her employer. While he was unable to prove that Luthor was behind the murder of Vesper, Batman does get his revenge with help from Talia al Ghul in Superman/Batman #1–6. 21st century 2000s DC Comics' 2005 miniseries Identity Crisis reveals that JLA member Zatanna had edited Batman's memories to prevent him from stopping the Justice League from lobotomizing Dr. Light after he raped Sue Dibny . Batman later creates the satellite surveillance system Brother Eye to watch over and, if necessary, kill the other heroes after he remembered. The revelation of Batman's creation and his tacit responsibility for Blue Beetle 's death becomes a driving force in the lead-up to the Infinite Crisis miniseries, which again restructures DC continuity. Batman and a team of superheroes destroy Brother Eye and the OMACs , though, at the very end, Batman reaches his apparent breaking point when Alexander Luthor Jr. seriously wounds Nightwing. Picking up a gun, Batman nearly shoots Luthor in order to avenge his former sidekick, until Wonder Woman convinces him to not pull the trigger. Following Infinite Crisis , Bruce Wayne, Dick Grayson (having recovered from his wounds), and Tim Drake retrace the steps Bruce had taken when he originally left Gotham City, to "rebuild Batman". [ 95 ] In the Face the Face storyline, Batman and Robin return to Gotham City after their year-long absence. Part of this absence is captured during Week 30 of the 52 series, which shows Batman fighting his inner demons. [ 96 ] Later on in 52 , Batman is shown undergoing an intense meditation ritual in Nanda Parbat . This becomes an important part of the regular Batman title, which reveals that Batman is reborn as a more effective crime fighter while undergoing this ritual, having "hunted down and ate" the last traces of fear in his mind. [ 97 ] [ 98 ] At the end of the "Face the Face" story arc, Bruce officially adopts Tim (who had lost both of his parents at various points in the character's history) as his son. [ 99 ] The follow-up story arc in Batman , Batman and Son , introduces Damian Wayne , who is Batman's son with Talia al Ghul . Although originally, in Batman: Son of the Demon , Bruce's coupling with Talia was implied to be consensual, this arc retconned it into Talia forcing herself on Bruce. [ 100 ] Batman, along with Superman and Wonder Woman, reforms the Justice League in the new Justice League of America series, [ 101 ] and is leading the newest incarnation of the Outsiders . [ 102 ] Grant Morrison 's 2008 storyline, " Batman R.I.P. " featured Batman being physically and mentally broken by the enigmatic villain Doctor Hurt and attracted news coverage in advance of its highly promoted conclusion, which would speculated to feature the death of Bruce Wayne. [ 103 ] However, though Batman is shown to possibly perish at the end of the arc, the two-issue arc "Last Rites", which leads into the crossover storyline " Final Crisis ", shows that Batman survives his helicopter crash into the Gotham City River and returns to the Batcave, only to be summoned to the Hall of Justice by the JLA to help investigate the New God Orion 's death. The story ends with Batman retrieving the god-killing bullet used to kill Orion, setting up its use in "Final Crisis". [ 104 ] In the pages of Final Crisis Batman is reduced to a charred skeleton. [ 105 ] In Final Crisis #7, Wayne is shown witnessing the death of the first man, Anthro . [ 106 ] [ 107 ] Wayne's "death" sets up the three-issue Battle for the Cowl miniseries in which Wayne's ex-proteges compete for the "right" to assume the role of Batman, which concludes with Grayson becoming Batman, [ 108 ] while Tim Drake takes on the identity of the Red Robin . [ 109 ] Dick and Damian continue as Batman and Robin, and in the crossover storyline " Blackest Night ", what appears to be Wayne's corpse is reanimated as a Black Lantern zombie , [ 110 ] but is later shown that the corpse is one of Darkseid's failed Batman clones. Dick and Batman's other friends conclude that Bruce is alive. [ 111 ] [ 112 ] 2010s Bruce subsequently returned in Morrison's miniseries Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne , which depicted his travels through time from prehistory to present-day Gotham. [ 113 ] [ 114 ] [ 115 ] Bruce's return set up Batman Incorporated , an ongoing series which focused on Wayne franchising the Batman identity across the globe, allowing Dick and Damian to continue as Gotham's Dynamic Duo. Bruce publicly announced that Wayne Enterprises will aid Batman on his mission, known as "Batman, Incorporated". However, due to rebooted continuity that occurred as part of DC Comics' 2011 relaunch of all of its comic books, The New 52 , Dick Grayson was restored as Nightwing with Wayne serving as the sole Batman once again. The relaunch also interrupted the publication of Batman, Incorporated , which resumed its story in 2012–2013 with changes to suit the new status quo. The New 52 During The New 52 , all of DC's continuity was reset and the timeline was changed, making Batman the first superhero to emerge. This emergence took place during Zero Year , where Bruce Wayne returns to Gotham and becomes Batman, fighting the original Red Hood [ 116 ] and the Riddler. [ 117 ] In the present day, Batman discovers the Court of Owls , a secret organization operating in Gotham for decades. [ 118 ] Batman somewhat defeats the Court by defeating Owlman, [ 119 ] although the Court continues to operate on a smaller scale. [ 120 ] The Joker returns after losing the skin on his face (as shown in the opening issue of the second volume of Detective Comics ) and attempts to kill the Batman's allies, though he is stopped by Batman. [ 121 ] After some time, Joker returns again, and both he and Batman die while fighting each other. Jim Gordon temporarily becomes Batman, using a high-tech suit, while it is revealed that an amnesiac Bruce Wayne is still alive. [ citation needed ] Gordon attempts to fight a new villain called Mr. Bloom , while Wayne, regains his memories with the help of Alfred Pennyworth and Julie Madison . Once with his memories, Wayne becomes Batman again and defeats Bloom with the help of Gordon. [ citation needed ] DC Rebirth The timeline was reset again during Rebirth , although no significant changes were made to the Batman mythos. [ citation needed ] Batman meets two new superheroes operating in Gotham named Gotham and Gotham Girl. Psycho-Pirate gets into Gotham's head and turns against Batman, and is finally defeated when he is killed. This event is very traumatic for Gotham Girl and she begins to lose her sanity. [ 122 ] Batman forms his own Suicide Squad , including Catwoman, and attempts to take down Bane . The mission is successful, and Batman breaks Bane's back. [ 123 ] Batman proposes to Catwoman. After healing from his wounds, an angry Bane travels to Gotham, where he fights Batman and loses. [ 124 ] Batman then tells Catwoman about the War of Jokes and Riddles, and she agrees to marry him. [ 125 ] Bane takes control of Arkham Asylum and manipulates Catwoman into leaving Wayne before the wedding. [ 126 ] This causes Wayne to become very angry, and, as Batman, lashes out against criminals, nearly killing Mr. Freeze. [ 127 ] Batman learns of Bane's control over Arkham and teams up with the Penguin to stop him. [ 128 ] Bane captures Batman, and Scarecrow causes him to hallucinate, although he eventually breaks free. [ 129 ] Batman escapes and reunites with Catwoman, while Bane captures and kills Alfred Pennyworth. Batman returns and defeats Bane, although too late to save Alfred. Gotham Girl prompts him to marry Catwoman. [ 130 ] It is revealed that the Joker who was working for Bane was Clayface in disguise. The real Joker has been plotting a master plan to take over Gotham. This plan comes to fruition during The Joker War , in which Joker takes over the city. Batman defeats the Joker who vanishes after an explosion. [ 131 ] Ghost-Maker , an enemy from Batman's past, appears in Gotham, and, after a battle, becomes a sort of ally to Batman. [ 132 ] A new group called the Magistrate rises up in Gotham, led by Simon Saint, whose goal is to outlaw vigilantes such as Batman. At the same time, Scarecrow returns, [ 133 ] fighting Batman. During Fear State , Batman battles and defeats both Scarecrow and the Magistrate's Peacekeepers. Other versions The character of Batman has been portrayed in numerous alternative versions across various media since his debut in 1939. These adaptations explore different facets and interpretations of the character. In Smallville , Bruce Wayne adopts the Batman persona in 2001, later teaming up with Superman and other superheroes. [ 134 ] Frank Miller 's influential series, " The Dark Knight Returns ", reimagines Batman as an older, more hardened vigilante, coming out of retirement to fight crime in a dystopian future. [ 135 ] In the Injustice: Gods Among Us universe, Batman leads a resistance against a tyrannical Superman who has taken control of Earth. The DC Bombshells series sets Batman in a World War II -era context, with Bruce Wayne taking inspiration from Batwoman to become the masked hero. The "Dark Multiverse" introduces various twisted versions of Batman, such as The Batman Who Laughs , a hybrid of Batman and the Joker, and Red Death, a fusion of Batman and the Flash. Other notable reimaginings include JLA/Avengers , where Batman appears in a crossover with Marvel's Avengers ; Stan Lee 's Just Imagine , which offers a completely different origin for Batman; and "Kingdom Come", where an older Batman operates in a dystopian future alongside other aged superheroes. In "Superman: American Alien", Bruce Wayne's journey is retold with significant differences, and "Batman: White Knight" explores a reality where the Joker is cured of his insanity and seeks to expose Batman as the true villain of Gotham. These various adaptations and reinterpretations highlight the versatility and enduring appeal of Batman as a character, allowing for a rich exploration of his mythology across different narratives and settings. In popular culture Batman has ascended to the status of a global pop culture phenomenon, transcending his origins in comic books. His influence expanded notably with the release of the 1989 film, which propelled him to the forefront of public consciousness through widespread merchandising. The Guardian describes Batman as emblematic of the constant reinvention characteristic of modern mass culture, embodying both iconic status and commercial appeal, making him a quintessential cultural artifact of the 21st century. [ 136 ] Media appearances Apart from comics, Batman's presence spans various mediums, including newspapers, radio dramas, television, stage, and film. From the 1940s serials to contemporary TV shows like Gotham and Titans , Batman's legacy endures. Celebrating the character's 75th anniversary, Warner Bros released Batman: Strange Days , showcasing his timeless appeal. [ 137 ] In September 2024, Batman become the first superhero to be given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame . It was the 2,790th star. [ 138 ] Criticism Batman has been criticized by fans for the extreme changes in tone and style between different iterations of the character in the franchise. [ 139 ] Different interpretations Gay interpretations of Batman have been studied academically since psychologist Fredric Wertham 's claims in 1954. [ 140 ] Andy Medhurst and Will Brooker have explored Batman's appeal to gay audiences and the validity of a queer reading. [ 141 ] Meanwhile, in psychological interpretations, Dr. Travis Langley sees Batman as representing the "shadow archetype", confronting inner darkness to fight evil, according to Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell's theories. Langley's analysis adds depth to Batman's psychological complexity. [ 142 ] Notes ^ Finger was not credited in official materials until 2015.

Inleiding • Hulp • Kontak Gebruikersportaal • Voorbladartikels • Kategorieë • Stel ’n vraag Voorbladartikel Alaska ( Engels : [əˈlæskə], luister ( hulp · inligting ) ; Russies : Аляска ), amptelik die Deelstaat Alaska ( State of Alaska ), is 'n deelstaat van die Verenigde State aan die noordweskus van Noord-Amerika . Dit is die grootste deelstaat met 'n oppervlakte van 1 723 337 vierkante kilometer (wat gelykstaan aan byna 'n vyfde van die 49 ander deelstate se totale oppervlakte) – en die grootste skiereiland in die Westelike Halfrond . Alaska se hoofstad is Juneau en die grootste stedelike nedersetting is Anchorage . Die deelstaat word in die noorde deur die Arktiese Oseaan , in die ooste deur Kanada ( Yukon en Brits-Columbië ), in die suide deur die noordelike Stille Oseaan , en in die weste deur die Beringstraat begrens. Die bekendste byname, wat aan Alaska gegee is, is Die Laaste Landgrens (Engels: The Last Frontier ) en Die Groot Land ( The Great Land ). Die naam Alaska is afgelei uit die Aleoetiese alaxsxaq ("die vasteland", of, volgens 'n meer presiese vertaling "die voorwerp waarop die see se handelinge gerig is"). Die eerste Europeërs het Alaska eers in 1741 begin verken toe Russiese ekspedisies hier voet aan wal gesit het – en die eerste Europese naam aan die land gegee het: Bolsjaja Zemlja of "die Groot Land" – 'n Russiese benaming wat voortleef in die Engelse bynaam The Great Land . Al het Rusland vervolgens aanspraak gemaak op die mees noordelike deel van die Noord-Amerikaanse vasteland, was Alaska onder Russiese bewind nouliks meer as 'n buitepos vir klein groepe jagters en handelaars. Ná die Krimoorlog (1853–1856) was Rusland se staatskas leeg, terwyl ook die Russiese leër se slaankrag en vegvermoë in twyfel getrek moes word. Die Russiese kolonies in Noord-Amerika is as onverdedigbaar beskou, gegewe die aktiwiteite van ander groot koloniale moondhede soos die Verenigde Koninkryk en die Verenigde State wat as mededingers in die gebied opgetree het. So was dit 'n maklike besluit vir die Russiese tsaar en sy raadgewers om die gebied op 30 Maart 1867 vir $7,2 miljoen (ongeveer twee sent per akker) aan die Verenigde State te verkoop. Ná die transaksie, wat deur die Staatsekretaris William H. Seward gehanteer is, is deur Amerikaanse media as Seward's Folly ("Seward se dwaasheid") verwys aangesien die ekonomiese waarde van die gebied destyds bevraagteken is. Eers toe twee goudstormlope – in Juneau in 1880 en die Kanadese Yukon-gebied in 1897 – duisende delwers na Alaska laat stroom het, het die Amerikaanse publiek sy aandag op die noordelike besitting begin vestig. Die waarde van Alaska se jaarlikse goudontginning het van $800 000 in 1890 tot $9 miljoen in 1904 gestyg. Die administratiewe insluiting by die Unie was 'n langdurige proses. Van 1906 af is Alaska deur 'n verteenwoordiger sonder stemreg in die Amerikaanse Kongres verteenwoordig. Ses jaar later het die Kongres met die Wet oor die Alaskagebied ( Alaska Territory ) die eerste territoriale wetgewende vergadering geskep wat uit 'n laerhuis en senaat bestaan het, met agt senatore en sestien verteenwoordigers (twee senatore en vier verteenwoordigers vir elkeen van die vier geregtelike distrikte waarin die gebied destyds onderverdeel is). Maar eers in 1959 is die politieke aspirasies van sy bewoners vervul toe Alaska as 49ste deelstaat tot die Unie toegelaat is. Die Arktiese Sirkelroete tussen die Verenigde State en Asië was gedurende die Tweede Wêreldoorlog en die Koue Oorlog van groot strategiese belang. Die permanente stasionering van militêre personeel in Alaska het grootliks bygedra tot die deelstaat se vinnige bevolkingsgroei, terwyl sy ekonomie en infrastruktuur deur federale befondsing ontwikkel is. Die ekonomiese basis is verder verstewig met die ontsluiting van groot ruolie - en aardgasvelde . ...lees verder In die nuus Oulu se stadsaal in 2018 Die Trenčín-kasteel Die verdedigende kampioen Australië behou die As -urn, nadat hulle die 2025–26-tuisreeks teen Engeland met 4–1 wen.

Eers toe twee goudstormlope – in Juneau in 1880 en die Kanadese Yukon-gebied in 1897 – duisende delwers na Alaska laat stroom het, het die Amerikaanse publiek sy aandag op die noordelike besitting begin vestig. Die waarde van Alaska se jaarlikse goudontginning het van $800 000 in 1890 tot $9 miljoen in 1904 gestyg. Die administratiewe insluiting by die Unie was 'n langdurige proses. Van 1906 af is Alaska deur 'n verteenwoordiger sonder stemreg in die Amerikaanse Kongres verteenwoordig. Ses jaar later het die Kongres met die Wet oor die Alaskagebied ( Alaska Territory ) die eerste territoriale wetgewende vergadering geskep wat uit 'n laerhuis en senaat bestaan het, met agt senatore en sestien verteenwoordigers (twee senatore en vier verteenwoordigers vir elkeen van die vier geregtelike distrikte waarin die gebied destyds onderverdeel is). Maar eers in 1959 is die politieke aspirasies van sy bewoners vervul toe Alaska as 49ste deelstaat tot die Unie toegelaat is. Die Arktiese Sirkelroete tussen die Verenigde State en Asië was gedurende die Tweede Wêreldoorlog en die Koue Oorlog van groot strategiese belang. Die permanente stasionering van militêre personeel in Alaska het grootliks bygedra tot die deelstaat se vinnige bevolkingsgroei, terwyl sy ekonomie en infrastruktuur deur federale befondsing ontwikkel is. Die ekonomiese basis is verder verstewig met die ontsluiting van groot ruolie - en aardgasvelde . Die verdedigende kampioen Australië behou die As -urn, nadat hulle die 2025–26-tuisreeks teen Engeland met 4–1 wen. Bahrein , Colombia , die Demokratiese Republiek die Kongo , Letland en Libië is die nuwe niepermanente lede in die Verenigde Nasies se Veiligheidsraad. Siprus neem die voorsitterskap van die Europese Unie by Denemarke oor. Bulgarye skakel na die euro oor en word die 21ste land in die Eurosone. Die Finse stad Oulu fungeer saam met die Slowaakse Trenčín as Europese Kultuurhoofstede 2026. Voortdurend: Russiese inval in Oekraïne sedert 2022 • Israel-Hamas-oorlog • Soedanese burgeroorlog Onlangs oorlede : DJ Warras • Hans van Manen • James Ransone • Chris Rea • Brigitte Bardot ... dat Indië die land is wat die meeste rolprente vervaardig? Die Indiese rolprentbedryf, waaronder ook Bollywood , vervaardig jaarliks 'n gemiddelde 800 rolprente, twee keer soveel as Hollywood . ... dat Julius Richard Petri die eerste mikrobioloog was wat 'n moderne stelsel daargestel het om bakterieë te kweek met die ontdekking van die petribakkie? ... Samuel Morse , die uitvinder van die telegraaf , vir burgemeester van New York gestaan het? Hy was egter nie suksesvol nie. ... dat die eerste fiets , wat in 1817 vervaardig is, nie pedale gehad het nie? Pedale is in 1865 bygevoeg, maar die fietse self is toe nog uit hout vervaardig. ... dat daar ridders was wat terselfdertyd ook monnike was? Die Orde van die Tempeliers was so 'n ridderorde. 15 Januarie : Jallikattu , wilde bultemming in Indië ; John Chilembwe-dag in Malawi . 1709 – Pous Clemens XI word gedwing om Karel, aartshertog van Oostenryk , as koning van Spanje te aanvaar. 1759 – Die Britse Museum in Londen open sy deure vir die publiek. 1876 – Die eerste koerant in Afrikaans , Die Patriot met C.P.

Sinucep ( talk ) 14:29, 23 December 2025 (UTC) Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available. Weekly highlight The Wikimedia Foundation has shared some guiding questions for the July 2026–June 2027 Annual Plan on Meta and Diff . These focus on global trends, faster and healthier experimentation, better support for newcomers, strengthening editors and advanced users, improving collaboration across projects, and growing and retaining readership. Feedback and ideas are welcome on the talk page . Updates for editors As part of the current work of Community Tech team on the Multiple watchlists project, the display of EditWatchlist will be updated as a first step towards multiple watchlists. Additionally, the pagination on Search will be updated too, as a part of the work on the Revamp pagination / page navigation wish. [1] The Global Watchlist is a MediaWiki extension that lets you see your watchlists from different wikis on the same page. It was recently updated to look more like the regular Watchlist , such as preparing it for temporary accounts in IP masking (including rerouting user links to contributions pages), making page titles bold, and opening links in edit summaries and tags in new browser tabs. [2] [3] [4] [5] View all 28 community-submitted tasks that were resolved last week . For example, the issue where global blocks did not have the option to disable sending emails, has now been fixed, and will be available for use in the week of January 13. [6] Updates for technical contributors The VisualEditor citation tool and Reference Previews now support "map" as a reference type.

Jimmy Wales Larry Sanger URL wikipedia .org Commercial No Registration Optional [ a ] Users 126 million (as of January 16, 2026) Launched January 15, 2001 (25 years ago) ( 2001-01-15 ) Current status Active Content license CC Attribution / Share-Alike 4.0 [ b ] Written in PHP OCLC number 52075003 Wikipedia [ c ] is a free online encyclopedia written and maintained by a community of volunteers , known as Wikipedians , through open collaboration and the wiki software MediaWiki . Founded by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger in 2001, Wikipedia has been hosted since 2003 by the Wikimedia Foundation , an American nonprofit organization funded mainly by donations from readers. [ 1 ] Wikipedia is the largest and most-read reference work in history. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Initially available only in English , Wikipedia exists in over 340 languages and is one of the world's most visited websites . The English Wikipedia , with over 7 million articles , remains the largest of the editions, which together comprise more than 66 million articles and attract more than 1.5 billion unique device visits and 13 million edits per month (about five edits per second on average) as of April 2024 [update] . [ W 1 ] As of December 2025 [update] , over 25% of Wikipedia's traffic comes from the United States, while Japan accounts for nearly 7%, and the United Kingdom, Germany, and Russia each represent around 5%. [ 4 ] Wikipedia has been praised for enabling the democratization of knowledge , its extensive coverage, unique structure, and culture. Wikipedia has been censored by some national governments, ranging from specific pages to the entire site, sometimes due to its criticism of the government or by content otherwise considered blasphemous. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Although Wikipedia's volunteer editors have written extensively on a wide variety of topics, the encyclopedia has also been criticized for systemic bias, such as a gender bias against women and a geographical bias against the Global South . [ 7 ] [ 8 ] While the reliability of Wikipedia was frequently criticized in the 2000s, it has improved over time, receiving greater praise from the late 2010s onward. [ 2 ] [ 9 ] [ 10 ] Articles on breaking news are often accessed as sources for up-to-date information about those events. [ 11 ] [ 12 ] History Nupedia Various collaborative online encyclopedias were attempted before the start of Wikipedia, but with limited success. [ 13 ] Wikipedia began as a complementary project for Nupedia, a free online English-language encyclopedia project whose articles were written by experts and reviewed under a formal process. [ 14 ] It was founded on March 9, 2000, under the ownership of Bomis , a web portal company. Its main figures were Bomis CEO Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger , editor-in-chief for Nupedia and later Wikipedia. [ 15 ] [ 16 ] Nupedia was initially licensed under its own Nupedia Open Content License, but before Wikipedia was founded, Nupedia switched to the GNU Free Documentation License at the urging of Richard Stallman . [ W 2 ] Wales is credited with defining the goal of making a publicly editable encyclopedia, [ 17 ] while Sanger is credited with the strategy of using a wiki to reach that goal. [ 18 ] On January 10, 2001, Sanger proposed on the Nupedia mailing list to create a wiki as a "feeder" project for Nupedia. [ W 3 ] Launch and growth Wikipedia was launched on January 15, 2001 (referred to as "Wikipedia Day"), [ 19 ] as a single English language edition with the domain name www.wikipedia.com , [ W 4 ] and was announced by Sanger on the Nupedia mailing list. [ 17 ] The name, proposed by Sanger to forestall any potential damage to the Nupedia name, [ 20 ] originated from a blend of the words wiki and encyclopedia . [ 21 ] [ 22 ] Its integral policy of " neutral point of view " arose within its first year. [ 23 ] Otherwise, there were initially relatively few rules, and it operated independently of Nupedia. [ 17 ] Bomis originally intended for it to be a for-profit business. [ 24 ] Wikipedia gained early contributors from Nupedia, Slashdot postings, and web search engine indexing. Language editions were created beginning in March 2001, with a total of 161 in use by the end of 2004. [ W 5 ] [ W 6 ] Nupedia and Wikipedia coexisted until the former's servers were taken down permanently in 2003, and its text was incorporated into Wikipedia. The English Wikipedia passed the mark of 2 million articles on September 9, 2007, making it the largest encyclopedia ever assembled, surpassing the Yongle Encyclopedia made in China during the Ming dynasty in 1408, which had held the record for almost 600 years. [ 25 ] Due to fears of commercial advertising and lack of control, users of the Spanish Wikipedia forked from Wikipedia to create Enciclopedia Libre in February 2002. [ W 7 ] Wales then announced that Wikipedia would not display advertisements, and changed Wikipedia's domain from wikipedia.com to wikipedia.org . [ 26 ] [ W 8 ] After an early period of exponential growth, [ 27 ] the growth rate of the English Wikipedia in terms of the numbers of new articles and of editors appears to have peaked around early 2007. [ 28 ] The edition reached 3 million articles in August 2009. Around 1,800 articles were added daily to the encyclopedia in 2006; by 2013 that average was roughly 800. [ W 9 ] A team at the Palo Alto Research Center attributed this slowing of growth to "increased coordination and overhead costs, exclusion of newcomers, and resistance to new edits". [ 27 ] Others suggested that the growth flattened naturally because articles that could be called " low-hanging fruit "—topics that clearly merit an article—had already been created and built up extensively. [ 29 ] [ 30 ] [ 31 ] In November 2009, a researcher at the Rey Juan Carlos University in Madrid, Spain, found that the English Wikipedia had lost 49,000 editors during the first three months of 2009; in comparison, it lost only 4,900 editors during the same period in 2008. [ 32 ] [ 33 ] The Wall Street Journal cited the array of rules applied to editing and disputes related to such content among the reasons for this trend. [ 34 ] Wales disputed these claims in 2009, denying the decline and questioning the study's methodology. [ 35 ] Two years later, in 2011, he acknowledged a slight decline, noting a decrease from "a little more than 36,000 writers" in June 2010 to 35,800 in June 2011. In the same interview, he also claimed the number of editors was "stable and sustainable". [ 36 ] A 2013 MIT Technology Review article, "The Decline of Wikipedia", questioned this claim, reporting that since 2007 Wikipedia had lost a third of its volunteer editors, and suggesting that those remaining had focused increasingly on minutiae. [ 37 ] In July 2012, The Atlantic reported that the number of administrators was also in decline. [ 38 ] In November 2013, New York magazine stated, "Wikipedia, the sixth-most-used website, is facing an internal crisis." [ 39 ] The number of active English Wikipedia editors has since remained steady after a long period of decline. [ 40 ] [ 41 ] On January 20, 2014, Subodh Varma reporting for The Economic Times indicated that not only had Wikipedia's growth stalled, it "had lost nearly ten percent of its page views last year. There was a decline of about 2 billion between December 2012 and December 2013. Its most popular versions are leading the slide: page-views of the English Wikipedia declined by twelve percent, those of German version slid by 17 percent and the Japanese version lost 9 percent." [ 42 ] Varma added, "While Wikipedia's managers think that this could be due to errors in counting, other experts feel that Google's Knowledge Graphs project launched last year may be gobbling up Wikipedia users." [ 42 ] When contacted on this matter, Clay Shirky , associate professor at New York University and fellow at Harvard's Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society said that he suspected much of the page-view decline was due to Knowledge Graphs, stating, "If you can get your question answered from the search page, you don't need to click [any further]." [ 42 ] By the end of December 2016, Wikipedia was ranked the fifth most popular website globally. [ 43 ] As of January 2023, 55,791 English Wikipedia articles have been cited 92,300 times in scholarly journals, [ 44 ] from which cloud computing was the most cited page. [ 45 ] Sister projects Wikipedia has spawned several sister projects, which are also wikis run by the Wikimedia Foundation . These other Wikimedia projects include Wiktionary , a dictionary project launched in December 2002, [ W 10 ] Wikiquote , a collection of quotations created a week after Wikimedia launched, [ 46 ] Wikibooks , a collection of collaboratively written free textbooks and annotated texts, [ W 11 ] Wikimedia Commons , a site devoted to free-knowledge multimedia, [ W 12 ] Wikinews , for collaborative journalism, [ W 13 ] and Wikiversity , a project for the creation of free learning materials and the provision of online learning activities. [ W 14 ] Another sister project of Wikipedia, Wikispecies , is a catalog of all species, but is not open for public editing. [ 47 ] In 2012, Wikivoyage , an editable travel guide, [ 48 ] and Wikidata , an editable knowledge base, launched. [ W 15 ] Milestones In January 2007, Wikipedia first became one of the ten most popular websites in the United States, according to Comscore Networks. [ 49 ] With 42.9 million unique visitors, it was ranked ninth, surpassing The New York Times (No. 10) and Apple (No. 11). [ 49 ] This marked a significant increase over January 2006, when Wikipedia ranked 33rd, with around 18.3 million unique visitors. [ 50 ] In 2014, it received 8 billion page views every month. [ W 16 ] On February 9, 2014, The New York Times reported that Wikipedia had 18 billion page views and nearly 500 million unique visitors a month, "according to the ratings firm comScore". [ 51 ] As of March 2023 [update] , it ranked sixth in popularity, according to Similarweb . [ 52 ] Jeff Loveland and Joseph Reagle argue that, in process, Wikipedia follows a long tradition of historical encyclopedias that have accumulated improvements piecemeal through " stigmergic accumulation". [ 53 ] [ 54 ] On January 18, 2012, the English Wikipedia participated in a series of coordinated protests against two proposed laws in the United States Congress —the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the PROTECT IP Act (PIPA)—by blacking out its pages for 24 hours . [ 55 ] More than 162 million people viewed the blackout explanation page that temporarily replaced its content. [ 56 ] [ W 17 ] In January 2013, 274301 Wikipedia , an asteroid , was named after Wikipedia; [ 57 ] in October 2014, Wikipedia was honored with the Wikipedia Monument ; [ 58 ] and, in July 2015, 106 of the 7,473 700-page volumes of Wikipedia became available as Print Wikipedia . [ 59 ] In April 2019, an Israeli lunar lander , Beresheet , crash landed on the surface of the Moon carrying a copy of nearly all of the English Wikipedia engraved on thin nickel plates; experts say the plates likely survived the crash. [ 60 ] [ 61 ] In June 2019, scientists reported that all 16 GB of article text from the English Wikipedia had been encoded into synthetic DNA . [ 62 ] On January 18, 2023, Wikipedia debuted a new website redesign, called " Vector 2022 ". [ 63 ] [ 64 ] It featured a redesigned menu bar , moving the table of contents to the left as a sidebar , and numerous changes in the locations of buttons like the language selection tool. [ 64 ] [ W 18 ] The update initially received backlash, most notably when editors of the Swahili Wikipedia unanimously voted to revert the changes. [ 63 ] [ 65 ] Both Sanger and Wales have given public interviews in late 2025 about their reflections about the status and state of Wikipedia leading up to its 25 years of operation on January 15, 2026; Wales appeared on the PBS television news show GZERO World interviewed by Ian Bremmer [ 66 ] and Sanger has appeared on the FOX news network interviewed by Ashley Rindsberg . [ 67 ] Wales's book The Seven Rules of Trust was published in October 2025 by Penguin Random House . It was described by the publisher as a "sweeping reflection on the global crisis of credibility and knowledge" with the book examining the "rules of trust" that enabled the growth and success of Wikipedia. [ 68 ] Impacts of generative AI on Wikipedia views Since January 2024, the Wikimedia Foundation has reported a roughly 50 percent increase in bandwidth use from downloads of multimedia content across its projects. According to the foundation, this growth is largely attributed to automated programs, or "scraper" bots, that collect large volumes of data from Wikimedia sites for use in training large language models and related applications. [ 69 ] In October 2025, the Wikimedia Foundation reported an estimated 8 percent decline in traffic as compared to the same months in 2024 in human page views. They speculate it reflects the use of generative AI and social media on how people tend to search for information. [ 70 ] [ 71 ] Collaborative editing Restrictions Due to Wikipedia's increasing popularity, some editions, including the English version, have introduced editing restrictions for certain cases. For instance, on the English Wikipedia and some other language editions, only users with 10 edits that have an account that is four days old may create a new article. [ W 19 ] On the English Wikipedia, among others, particularly controversial, sensitive, or vandalism-prone pages have been protected to varying degrees. [ 72 ] A frequently vandalized article can be "semi-protected" or "extended confirmed protected", meaning that only "autoconfirmed" or "extended confirmed" editors can modify it. [ 73 ] A particularly contentious article may be locked so that only administrators can make changes. [ W 20 ] A 2021 article in the Columbia Journalism Review identified Wikipedia's page-protection policies as "perhaps the most important" means at its disposal to "regulate its market of ideas". [ 74 ] Wikipedia has delegated some functions to bots . Such algorithmic governance has an ease of implementation and scaling, though the automated rejection of edits may have contributed to a downturn in active Wikipedia editors. [ 75 ] Bots must be approved by the community before their tasks are implemented. [ 76 ] In certain cases, all editors are allowed to submit modifications, but review is required for some editors, depending on certain conditions. For example, the German Wikipedia maintains "stable versions" of articles which have passed certain reviews. [ W 21 ] Following protracted trials and community discussion, the English Wikipedia introduced the "pending changes" system in December 2012. [ 77 ] Under this system, new and unregistered users' edits to certain controversial or vandalism-prone articles are reviewed by established users before they are published. [ 78 ] However, restrictions on editing may reduce the editor engagement as well as efforts to diversify the editing community. [ 79 ] Articles related to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict are placed under extended-confirmed protection. [ 80 ] Editors also can make only one revert per day across the entire field and can be banned from editing related articles. These restrictions were introduced in 2008. [ 81 ] In January 2025, the Arbitration Committee introduced the "balanced editing restriction", which requires sanctioned users to devote only a third of their edits to articles related to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict even when no misconduct rules have been violated. [ 82 ] [ 83 ] Review of changes Although changes are not systematically reviewed, Wikipedia's software provides tools allowing anyone to review changes made by others. Each article's History page links to each revision. [ e ] [ 84 ] On most articles, anyone can view the latest changes and undo others' revisions by clicking a link on the article's History page. Registered users may maintain a "watchlist" of articles that interest them so they can be notified of changes. [ W 22 ] "New pages patrol" is a process where newly created articles are checked for obvious problems. [ W 23 ] In 2003, economics PhD student Andrea Ciffolilli argued that the low transaction costs of participating in a wiki created a catalyst for collaborative development, and that features such as allowing easy access to past versions of a page favored "creative construction" over "creative destruction". [ 85 ] Vandalism Any change that deliberately compromises Wikipedia's integrity is considered vandalism. The most common and obvious types of vandalism include additions of obscenities and crude humor; it can also include advertising and other types of spam. [ 86 ] Sometimes editors commit vandalism by removing content or entirely blanking a given page. Less common types of vandalism, such as the deliberate addition of plausible but false information, can be more difficult to detect. Vandals can introduce irrelevant formatting, modify page semantics such as the page's title or categorization, manipulate the article's underlying code, or use images disruptively. [ W 24 ] Obvious vandalism is generally easy to remove from Wikipedia articles; the median time to detect and fix it is a few minutes. [ 87 ] [ 88 ] However, some vandalism takes much longer to detect and repair. [ 89 ] In the Seigenthaler biography incident , an anonymous editor introduced false information into the biography of American political figure John Seigenthaler in May 2005, falsely presenting him as a suspect in the assassination of John F. Kennedy . [ 89 ] It remained uncorrected for four months. [ 89 ] Seigenthaler, the founding editorial director of USA Today and founder of the Freedom Forum First Amendment Center at Vanderbilt University , called Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales and asked whether he had any way of knowing who contributed the misinformation. Wales said he did not, although the perpetrator was eventually traced. [ 90 ] [ 91 ] After the incident, Seigenthaler described Wikipedia as "a flawed and irresponsible research tool". [ 89 ] The incident led to policy changes at Wikipedia for tightening up the verifiability of biographical articles of living people. [ 92 ] Disputes and edit warring Wikipedia editors often have disagreements regarding content, which can be discussed on article Talk pages. Disputes may result in repeated competing changes to an article, known as "edit warring". [ W 25 ] [ 93 ] It is widely seen as a resource-consuming scenario where no useful knowledge is added, [ 94 ] and criticized as creating a competitive [ 95 ] and conflict-based editing culture associated with traditional masculine gender roles . [ 96 ] [ 97 ] Research has focused on, for example, impoliteness of disputes, [ 98 ] [ 99 ] the influence of rival editing camps, [ 100 ] [ 101 ] the conversational structure, [ 102 ] and the shift in conflicts to a focus on sources. [ 103 ] [ 104 ] Taha Yasseri of the University of Oxford examined editing conflicts and their resolution in a 2013 study. [ 105 ] [ 106 ] Yasseri contended that simple reverts or "undo" operations were not the most significant measure of counterproductive work behavior at Wikipedia. He relied instead on "mutually reverting edit pairs", where one editor reverts the edit of another editor who then, in sequence, returns to revert the first editor. The results were tabulated for several language versions of Wikipedia. The English Wikipedia's three largest conflict rates belonged to the articles George W. Bush , anarchism , and Muhammad . [ 106 ] By comparison, for the German Wikipedia, the three largest conflict rates at the time of the study were for the articles covering Croatia , Scientology , and 9/11 conspiracy theories . [ 106 ] In 2020, researchers identified other measures of editor behaviors, beyond mutual reverts, to identify editing conflicts across Wikipedia. [ 104 ] Editors also debate the deletion of articles on Wikipedia , with roughly 500,000 such debates since Wikipedia's inception. Once an article is nominated for deletion, the dispute is typically determined by initial votes (to keep or delete) and by reference to topic-specific notability policies. [ 107 ] Policies and content External videos Jimmy Wales , The Birth of Wikipedia, 2006, TED talks , 20 minutes Katherine Maher , What Wikipedia Teaches Us About Balancing Truth and Beliefs, 2022, TED talks , 15 minutes Wikipedia is composed of 11 different namespaces , with its articles being present in mainspace . Other namespaces have a prefix before their page title and fulfill various purposes. For example, the project namespace uses the Wikipedia prefix and is used for self-governance related discussions. Most readers are not aware of these other namespaces. [ 108 ] The fundamental principles of the Wikipedia community are embodied in the "Five pillars", while the detailed editorial principles are expressed in numerous policies and guidelines intended to appropriately shape content. [ W 26 ] The five pillars are: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view Wikipedia is free content that anyone can use, edit, and distribute Wikipedia's editors should treat each other with respect and civility Wikipedia has no firm rules The rules developed by the community are stored in wiki form, and Wikipedia editors write and revise the website's policies and guidelines in accordance with community consensus. [ 109 ] Originally, rules on the non-English editions of Wikipedia were based on a translation of the rules for the English Wikipedia. They have since diverged to some extent. [ W 21 ] Content policies and guidelines According to the rules on the English Wikipedia community, each entry in Wikipedia must be about a topic that is encyclopedic and is not a dictionary entry or dictionary-style. [ W 27 ] A topic should also meet Wikipedia's standards of "notability" , which generally means that the topic has been covered extensively in reliable sources that are independent of the article's subject. [ 110 ] Wikipedia intends to convey only knowledge that is already established and recognized and therefore must not present original research. [ 111 ] Some subjects such as politicians and academics have specialized notability requirements. [ 110 ] Finally, Wikipedia must reflect a neutral point of view. This is accomplished through summarizing reliable sources, using impartial language, and ensuring that multiple points of view are presented based on their prominence. Information must also be verifiable. [ 112 ] Information without citations may be tagged or removed entirely. [ 113 ] This can at times lead to the removal of information which, though valid, is not properly sourced. [ 114 ] As Wikipedia policies changed over time, and became more complex, their number has grown. In 2008, there were 44 policy pages and 248 guideline pages; by 2013, scholars counted 383 policy pages and 449 guideline pages. [ 75 ] Governance Wikipedia's initial anarchy integrated democratic and hierarchical elements over time. [ 115 ] [ 116 ] An article is not considered to be owned by its creator or any other editor, nor by the subject of the article. [ W 28 ] Editors in good standing in the community can request extra user rights , granting them the technical ability to perform certain special actions. Some user rights are granted automatically, such as the autoconfirmed and extended confirmed groups, when thresholds for account age and edits are met. [ 73 ] Administrators Experienced editors can choose to run for " adminship ", [ 117 ] which includes the ability to delete pages or prevent them from being changed in cases of severe vandalism or editorial disputes. [ W 29 ] Administrators are not supposed to enjoy any special privilege in decision-making; instead, their powers are mostly limited to making edits that have project-wide effects and thus are disallowed to ordinary editors, and to implement restrictions intended to prevent disruptive editors from making unproductive edits. [ W 29 ] By 2012, fewer editors were becoming administrators compared to Wikipedia's earlier years, in part because the process of vetting potential administrators had become more rigorous. [ 38 ] In 2022, there was a particularly contentious request for adminship over the candidate's anti-Trump views; ultimately, they were granted adminship. [ 118 ] Dispute resolution Over time, Wikipedia has developed a semi-formal dispute resolution process. To determine community consensus, editors can raise issues at appropriate community forums, seek outside input through third opinion requests, or initiate a more general community discussion known as a "request for comment", [ W 25 ] in which bots add the discussion to a centralized list of discussions, invite editors to participate, and remove the discussion from the list after 30 days. [ W 30 ] However, editors have the discretion to close (and delist) the discussion early or late. If the result of a discussion is not obvious, a closer—an uninvolved editor usually in good standing—may render a verdict from the strength of the arguments presented and then the numbers of arguers on each side. [ 119 ] Wikipedians emphasize that the process is not a vote by referring to statements of opinion in such discussions as "!vote"s, in which the exclamation mark is the symbol for logical negation and pronounced "not". [ 120 ] Wikipedia encourages local resolutions of conflicts, which Jemielniak argues is quite unique in organization studies, though there has been some recent interest in consensus building in the field. [ 121 ] Reagle and Sue Gardner argue that the approaches to consensus building are similar to those used by Quakers . [ 121 ] : 62 A difference from Quaker meetings is the absence of a facilitator in the presence of disagreement, a role played by the clerk in Quaker meetings. [ 121 ] : 83 Arbitration Committee The Arbitration Committee presides over the ultimate dispute resolution process. Although disputes usually arise from a disagreement between two opposing views on how an article should read, the Arbitration Committee explicitly refuses to directly rule on the specific view that should be adopted. [ 122 ] Statistical analyses suggest that the English Wikipedia committee ignores the content of disputes and rather focuses on the way disputes are conducted, [ 123 ] functioning not so much to resolve disputes and make peace between conflicting editors, but to weed out problematic editors while allowing potentially productive editors back in to participate. [ 122 ] Therefore, the committee does not dictate the content of articles, although it sometimes condemns content changes when it deems the new content violates Wikipedia policies (for example, if the new content is considered biased). [ f ] Commonly used solutions include cautions and probations (used in 63% of cases) and banning editors from articles (43%), subject matters (23%), or Wikipedia (16%). [ 122 ] Complete bans from Wikipedia are generally limited to instances of impersonation and antisocial behavior . [ W 31 ] When conduct is not impersonation or anti-social, but rather edit warring and other violations of editing policies, solutions tend to be limited to warnings. [ 122 ] Community Each article and each user of Wikipedia has an associated and dedicated "talk" page. These form the primary communication channel for editors to discuss, coordinate and debate. [ 124 ] Wikipedia's community has been described as cultlike , [ 125 ] although not always with entirely negative connotations. [ 126 ] Its preference for cohesiveness, even if it requires compromise that includes disregard of credentials , has been referred to as " anti-elitism ". [ W 32 ] Wikipedia does not require that its editors and contributors provide identification. [ 127 ] As Wikipedia grew, "Who writes Wikipedia?" became one of the questions frequently asked there. [ 128 ] Jimmy Wales once argued that only "a community ... a dedicated group of a few hundred volunteers" makes the bulk of contributions to Wikipedia and that the project is therefore "much like any traditional organization". [ 129 ] Since Wikipedia relies on volunteer labour, editors frequently focus on topics that interest them. [ 130 ] The English Wikipedia has 7,122,774 articles, 51,074,164 registered editors, and 267,090 active editors. An editor is considered active if they have made one or more edits in the past 30 days. [ W 33 ] Editors who fail to comply with Wikipedia cultural rituals, such as signing talk page comments, may implicitly signal that they are Wikipedia outsiders, increasing the odds that Wikipedia insiders may target or discount their contributions. Becoming a Wikipedia insider involves non-trivial costs: the contributor is expected to learn Wikipedia-specific technological codes, submit to a sometimes convoluted dispute resolution process, and learn a "baffling culture rich with in-jokes and insider references". [ 131 ] Editors who do not log in are in some sense " second-class citizens " on Wikipedia, [ 131 ] as "participants are accredited by members of the wiki community, who have a vested interest in preserving the quality of the work product, on the basis of their ongoing participation", [ 132 ] but the contribution histories of anonymous unregistered editors recognized only by their IP addresses cannot be attributed to a particular editor with certainty. [ 132 ] New editors often struggle to understand Wikipedia's complexity. Experienced editors are encouraged to not "bite" the newcomers in order to create a more welcoming atmosphere. [ 133 ] Research A 2007 study by researchers from Dartmouth College found that "anonymous and infrequent contributors to Wikipedia ... are as reliable a source of knowledge as those contributors who register with the site". [ 134 ] Jimmy Wales stated in 2009 that "[I]t turns out over 50% of all the edits are done by just 0.7% of the users ... 524 people ... And in fact, the most active 2%, which is 1400 people, have done 73.4% of all the edits." [ 129 ] However, Business Insider editor and journalist Henry Blodget showed in 2009 that in a random sample of articles, most Wikipedia content (measured by the amount of contributed text that survives to the latest sampled edit) is created by "outsiders", while most editing and formatting is done by "insiders". [ 129 ] In 2008, a Slate magazine article reported that "one percent of Wikipedia users are responsible for about half of the site's edits." [ 135 ] This method of evaluating contributions was later disputed by Aaron Swartz , who noted that several articles he sampled had large portions of their content (measured by number of characters) contributed by users with low edit counts. [ 136 ] A 2008 study found that Wikipedians were less agreeable, open, and conscientious than others, [ 137 ] although a later commentary pointed out serious flaws, including that the data showed higher openness and that the differences with the control group and the samples were small. [ 138 ] According to a 2009 study, there is "evidence of growing resistance from the Wikipedia community to new content". [ 139 ] Diversity Several studies have shown that most volunteer Wikipedia contributors are male. The results of a Wikimedia Foundation survey in 2008 showed that only 13 percent of Wikipedia editors were female. [ 140 ] Because of this, universities throughout the United States tried to encourage women to become Wikipedia contributors. [ 141 ] Similarly, many of these universities, including Yale and Brown , gave college credit to students who create or edit an article relating to women in science or technology. [ 141 ] Andrew Lih , a professor and scientist, said that the reason he thought the number of male contributors outnumbered the number of females so greatly was because identifying as a woman may expose oneself to "ugly, intimidating behavior". [ 142 ] Data has shown that Africans are underrepresented among Wikipedia editors. [ 143 ] Language editions English (10.7%) Cebuano (9.20%) German (4.70%) French (4.10%) Swedish (4.00%) Dutch (3.30%) Spanish (3.10%) Russian (3.10%) Italian (2.90%) Polish (2.50%) Egyptian Arabic (2.50%) Chinese (2.30%) Japanese (2.20%) Ukrainian (2.10%) Vietnamese (2.00%) Arabic (2.00%) Waray (1.90%) Portuguese (1.90%) Persian (1.60%) Catalan (1.20%) Other (32.7%) There are currently 342 language editions of Wikipedia (also called language versions , or simply Wikipedias ). As of January 2026, the six largest, in order of article count, are the English , Cebuano , German , French , Swedish , and Dutch Wikipedias. [ W 35 ] The second and fifth-largest Wikipedias owe their position to the article-creating bot Lsjbot , which as of 2013 [update] had created about half the articles on the Swedish Wikipedia , and most of the articles in the Cebuano and Waray Wikipedias . The latter are both languages of the Philippines . In addition to the top six, twelve other Wikipedias have more than a million articles each ( Spanish , Russian , Italian , Polish , Egyptian Arabic , Chinese , Japanese , Ukrainian , Vietnamese , Arabic , Waray , and Portuguese ), seven more have over 500,000 articles ( Persian , Catalan , Indonesian , Korean , Chechen , Serbian , and Norwegian ), 44 more have over 100,000, and 82 more have over 10,000. [ W 36 ] [ W 35 ] The largest, the English Wikipedia, has over 7.1 million articles. As of January 2021, [update] the English Wikipedia receives 48% of Wikipedia's cumulative traffic, with the remaining split among the other languages. The top 10 editions represent approximately 85% of the total traffic. [ W 37 ] Most viewed editions of Wikipedia, 2008–2024 Most edited editions of Wikipedia, 2001–2024 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 English 7,122,774 Cebuano 6,115,889 German 3,088,174 French 2,732,651 Swedish 2,621,894 Dutch 2,209,177 Spanish 2,087,385 Russian 2,080,543 Italian 1,952,325 Polish 1,681,454 Egyptian Arabic 1,630,376 Chinese 1,520,328 Japanese 1,486,306 Ukrainian 1,403,978 Vietnamese 1,297,325 Arabic 1,294,750 Waray 1,266,852 Portuguese 1,163,273 Persian 1,066,733 Catalan 787,329 English 7,122,774 Cebuano 6,115,889 German 3,088,174 French 2,732,651 Swedish 2,621,894 Dutch 2,209,177 Spanish 2,087,385 Russian 2,080,543 Italian 1,952,325 Polish 1,681,454 Egyptian Arabic 1,630,376 Chinese 1,520,328 Japanese 1,486,306 Ukrainian 1,403,978 Vietnamese 1,297,325 Arabic 1,294,750 Waray 1,266,852 Portuguese 1,163,273 Persian 1,066,733 Catalan 787,329 Since Wikipedia is based on the Web and therefore worldwide, contributors to the same language edition may use different dialects or may come from different countries (as is the case for the English edition). These differences may lead to some conflicts over spelling differences (e.g. colour versus color ) [ W 38 ] or points of view. [ W 39 ] Though the various language editions are held to global policies such as "neutral point of view", they diverge on some points of policy and practice, most notably on whether images that are not licensed freely may be used under a claim of fair use . [ W 40 ] [ 145 ] The content of articles on the same subject can differ significantly between languages, depending on the sources editors use and other factors. [ 146 ] [ 147 ] Jimmy Wales has described Wikipedia as "an effort to create and distribute a free encyclopedia of the highest possible quality to every single person on the planet in their own language". [ W 41 ] Though each language edition functions more or less independently, some efforts are made to supervise them all. They are coordinated in part by Meta-Wiki, the Wikimedia Foundation's wiki devoted to maintaining all its projects (Wikipedia and others). [ W 42 ] For instance, Meta-Wiki provides important statistics on all language editions of Wikipedia, [ W 43 ] and it maintains a list of articles every Wikipedia should have. [ W 44 ] The list concerns basic content by subject: biography, history, geography, society, culture, science, technology, and mathematics. [ W 44 ] It is not rare for articles strongly related to a particular language not to have counterparts in another edition. For example, articles about small towns in the United States might be available only in English, even when they meet the notability criteria of other language Wikipedia projects. [ W 45 ] Translated articles represent only a small portion of articles in most editions, in part because those editions do not allow fully automated translation of articles. Articles available in more than one language may offer "interwiki links", which link to the counterpart articles in other editions. [ 149 ] [ W 46 ] A study published by PLOS One in 2012 also estimated the share of contributions to different editions of Wikipedia from different regions of the world. It reported that the proportion of the edits made from North America was 51% for the English Wikipedia, and 25% for the Simple English Wikipedia . [ 148 ] English Wikipedia editor numbers On March 1, 2014, The Economist , in an article titled "The Future of Wikipedia", cited a trend analysis concerning data published by the Wikimedia Foundation stating that "the number of editors for the English-language version has fallen by a third in seven years." [ 150 ] The attrition rate for active editors in English Wikipedia was cited by The Economist as substantially in contrast to statistics for Wikipedia in other languages (non-English Wikipedia). The Economist reported that the number of contributors with an average of five or more edits per month was relatively constant since 2008 for Wikipedia in other languages at approximately 42,000 editors within narrow seasonal variances of about 2,000 editors up or down. The number of active editors in English Wikipedia, by sharp comparison, was cited as peaking in 2007 at approximately 50,000 and dropping to 30,000 by the start of 2014. [ 150 ] In contrast, the trend analysis for Wikipedia in other languages (non-English Wikipedia) shows success in retaining active editors on a renewable and sustained basis, with their numbers remaining relatively constant at approximately 42,000. No comment was made concerning which of the differentiated edit policy standards from Wikipedia in other languages (non-English Wikipedia) would provide a possible alternative to English Wikipedia for effectively improving substantial editor attrition rates on the English-language Wikipedia. [ 150 ] Reception Various Wikipedians have criticized Wikipedia's large and growing regulation , which includes more than fifty policies and nearly 150,000 words as of 2014. [update] [ 151 ] [ 121 ] Critics have stated that Wikipedia exhibits systemic bias . In 2010, columnist and journalist Edwin Black described Wikipedia as being a mixture of "truth, half-truth, and some falsehoods". [ 152 ] Articles in The Chronicle of Higher Education and The Journal of Academic Librarianship have criticized Wikipedia's " undue-weight policy ", concluding that Wikipedia explicitly is not designed to provide correct information about a subject, but rather focus on all the major viewpoints on the subject, give less attention to minor ones, and creates omissions that can lead to false beliefs based on incomplete information. [ 153 ] [ 154 ] [ 155 ] Journalists Oliver Kamm and Edwin Black alleged (in 2010 and 2011 respectively) that articles are dominated by the loudest and most persistent voices, usually by a group with an "ax to grind" on the topic. [ 152 ] [ 156 ] A 2008 article in Education Next journal concluded that as a resource about controversial topics, Wikipedia is subject to manipulation and spin . [ 157 ] In 2020, Omer Benjakob and Stephen Harrison noted that "Media coverage of Wikipedia has radically shifted over the past two decades: once cast as an intellectual frivolity, it is now lauded as the 'last bastion of shared reality' online." [ 158 ] Multiple news networks and pundits have accused Wikipedia of being ideologically biased . In February 2021, Fox News accused Wikipedia of whitewashing communism and socialism and having too much " leftist bias". [ 159 ] Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger , who left Wikipedia in 2002 to establish competing websites, has said that Wikipedia had become "propaganda" for the left-leaning "establishment" and warned the site can no longer be trusted. [ 160 ] [ 161 ] In 2022, libertarian John Stossel opined that Wikipedia, a site he financially supported at one time, appeared to have gradually taken a significant turn in bias to the political left, specifically on political topics. [ 162 ] Some studies suggest that Wikipedia (and in particular the English Wikipedia) has a "western cultural bias " (or "pro-western bias") [ 163 ] or "Eurocentric bias", [ 164 ] reiterating, says Anna Samoilenko, "similar biases that are found in the 'ivory tower' of academic historiography". Carwil Bjork-James proposes that Wikipedia could follow the diversification pattern of contemporary scholarship [ 165 ] and Dangzhi Zhao calls for a "decolonization" of Wikipedia to reduce bias from opinionated White male editors. [ 166 ] In October 2025, Larry Sanger published his Nine Theses , a critical assessment and reform agenda for Wikipedia. The proposal is part of his broader effort to address what Sanger perceives as systemic issues within Wikipedia, which include ideological bias, lack of transparency in the editor hierarchies and an ineffective consensus-based decision making procedure. [ 167 ] [ 168 ] Accuracy of content External audio The Great Book of Knowledge, Part 1 , Ideas with Paul Kennedy , CBC , January 15, 2014 Articles for traditional encyclopedias such as Encyclopædia Britannica are written by experts , lending such encyclopedias a reputation for accuracy. [ 169 ] However, a peer review in 2005 of forty-two scientific entries on both Wikipedia and Encyclopædia Britannica by the science journal Nature found few differences in accuracy, and concluded that "the average science entry in Wikipedia contained around four inaccuracies; Britannica , about three." [ 170 ] Joseph Reagle suggested that while the study reflects "a topical strength of Wikipedia contributors" in science articles, "Wikipedia may not have fared so well using a random sampling of articles or on humanities subjects." [ 171 ] [ failed verification ] Others raised similar critiques. [ 172 ] The findings by Nature were disputed by Encyclopædia Britannica , [ 173 ] [ 174 ] and in response, Nature gave a rebuttal of the points raised by Britannica . [ 175 ] In addition to the point-for-point disagreement between these two parties, others have examined the sample size and selection method used in the Nature effort, and suggested a "flawed study design" (in Nature ' s manual selection of articles, in part or in whole, for comparison), absence of statistical analysis (e.g., of reported confidence intervals ), and a lack of study "statistical power" (i.e., owing to small sample size , 42 or 4 × 10 1 articles compared, vs >10 5 and >10 6 set sizes for Britannica and the English Wikipedia, respectively). [ 176 ] As a consequence of the open structure, Wikipedia "makes no guarantee of validity" of its content, since no one is ultimately responsible for any claims appearing in it. [ W 47 ] Concerns have been raised by PC World in 2009 regarding the lack of accountability that results from users' anonymity, the insertion of false information, [ 177 ] vandalism , and similar problems. Legal Research in a Nutshell (2011), cites Wikipedia as a "general source" that "can be a real boon" in "coming up to speed in the law governing a situation" and, "while not authoritative, can provide basic facts as well as leads to more in-depth resources". [ 178 ] Economist Tyler Cowen wrote: "If I had to guess whether Wikipedia or the median refereed journal article on economics was more likely to be true after a not so long think I would opt for Wikipedia." He comments that some traditional sources of non-fiction suffer from systemic biases, and novel results, in his opinion, are over-reported in journal articles as well as relevant information being omitted from news reports. However, he also cautions that errors are frequently found on Internet sites and that academics and experts must be vigilant in correcting them. [ 179 ] Amy Bruckman has argued that, due to the number of reviewers, "the content of a popular Wikipedia page is actually the most reliable form of information ever created". [ 180 ] In September 2022, The Sydney Morning Herald journalist Liam Mannix noted that: "There's no reason to expect Wikipedia to be accurate ... And yet it [is]." Mannix further discussed the multiple studies that have proved Wikipedia to be generally as reliable as Encyclopædia Britannica , summarizing that "...turning our back on such an extraordinary resource is... well, a little petty." [ 181 ] Critics argue that Wikipedia's open nature and a lack of proper sources for most of the information makes it unreliable. [ 182 ] Some commentators suggest that Wikipedia may be reliable, but that the reliability of any given article is not clear. [ 183 ] Editors of traditional reference works such as the Encyclopædia Britannica have questioned the project's utility and status as an encyclopedia. [ 184 ] Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales has claimed that Wikipedia has largely avoided the problem of "fake news" because the Wikipedia community regularly debates the quality of sources in articles. [ 185 ] External videos Inside Wikipedia – Attack of the PR Industry , Deutsche Welle , 7:13 mins [ 186 ] Wikipedia's open structure inherently makes it an easy target for Internet trolls , spammers , and various forms of paid advocacy seen as counterproductive to the maintenance of a neutral and verifiable online encyclopedia. [ 84 ] [ W 48 ] In response to paid advocacy editing and undisclosed editing issues, Wikipedia was reported in an article in The Wall Street Journal to have strengthened its rules and laws against undisclosed editing. [ 187 ] The article stated that: "Beginning Monday [from the date of the article, June 16, 2014], changes in Wikipedia's terms of use will require anyone paid to edit articles to disclose that arrangement. Katherine Maher , the nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation's chief communications officer, said the changes address a sentiment among volunteer editors that 'we're not an advertising service; we're an encyclopedia. ' " [ 187 ] [ 188 ] [ 189 ] [ 190 ] [ 191 ] These issues, among others, had been parodied since the first decade of Wikipedia, notably by Stephen Colbert on The Colbert Report . [ 192 ] Discouragement in education Some university lecturers discourage students from citing any encyclopedia in academic work , preferring primary sources ; [ 193 ] some specifically prohibit Wikipedia citations. [ 194 ] [ 195 ] Wales stresses that encyclopedias of any type are not usually appropriate to use as citable sources, and should not be relied upon as authoritative. [ 196 ] Wales once (2006 or earlier) said he receives about ten emails weekly from students saying they got failing grades on papers because they cited Wikipedia; he told the students they got what they deserved. "For God's sake, you're in college; don't cite the encyclopedia", he said. [ 197 ] In February 2007, an article in The Harvard Crimson newspaper reported that a few of the professors at Harvard University were including Wikipedia articles in their syllabi , although without realizing the articles might change. [ 198 ] In June 2007, Michael Gorman , former president of the American Library Association , condemned Wikipedia, along with Google, stating that academics who endorse the use of Wikipedia are "the intellectual equivalent of a dietitian who recommends a steady diet of Big Macs with everything". [ 199 ] A 2020 research study published in Studies in Higher Education argued that Wikipedia could be applied in the higher education " flipped classroom ", an educational model where students learn before coming to class and apply it in classroom activities. The experimental group was instructed to learn before class and get immediate feedback before going in (the flipped classroom model), while the control group was given direct instructions in class (the conventional classroom model). The groups were then instructed to collaboratively develop Wikipedia entries, which would be graded in quality after the study. The results showed that the experimental group yielded more Wikipedia entries and received higher grades in quality. The study concluded that learning with Wikipedia in flipped classrooms was more effective than in conventional classrooms, demonstrating Wikipedia could be used as an educational tool in higher education. [ 200 ] Medical information On March 5, 2014, Julie Beck writing for The Atlantic magazine in an article titled "Doctors' #1 Source for Healthcare Information: Wikipedia", stated that "Fifty percent of physicians look up conditions on the (Wikipedia) site, and some are editing articles themselves to improve the quality of available information." [ 201 ] Beck continued to detail in this article new programs of Amin Azzam at the University of San Francisco to offer medical school courses to medical students for learning to edit and improve Wikipedia articles on health-related issues , as well as internal quality control programs within Wikipedia organized by James Heilman to improve a group of 200 health-related articles of central medical importance up to Wikipedia's highest standard of articles using its Featured Article and Good Article peer-review evaluation process. [ 201 ] In a May 7, 2014, follow-up article in The Atlantic titled "Can Wikipedia Ever Be a Definitive Medical Text?", Julie Beck quotes WikiProject Medicine's James Heilman as stating: "Just because a reference is peer-reviewed doesn't mean it's a high-quality reference." [ 202 ] Beck added that: "Wikipedia has its own peer review process before articles can be classified as 'good' or 'featured'. Heilman, who has participated in that process before, says 'less than one percent' of Wikipedia's medical articles have passed." [ 202 ] Coverage of topics and systemic bias Wikipedia seeks to create a summary of all human knowledge in the form of an online encyclopedia, with each topic covered encyclopedically in one article. Since it has terabytes of disk space , it can have far more topics than can be covered by any printed encyclopedia. [ W 49 ] The exact degree and manner of coverage on Wikipedia is under constant review by its editors, and disagreements are not uncommon (see deletionism and inclusionism ). [ 203 ] [ 204 ] Wikipedia contains materials that some people may find objectionable, offensive, or pornographic. [ W 50 ] The "Wikipedia is not censored" policy has sometimes proved controversial: in 2008, Wikipedia rejected an online petition against the inclusion of images of Muhammad in the English edition of its Muhammad article, citing this policy. [ 205 ] The presence of politically, religiously, and pornographically sensitive materials in Wikipedia has led to the censorship of Wikipedia by national authorities in China [ 206 ] and Pakistan, [ 207 ] among other countries. [ 208 ] [ 209 ] [ 210 ] Through its "Wikipedia Loves Libraries" program, Wikipedia has partnered with major public libraries such as the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts to expand its coverage of underrepresented subjects and articles. [ 211 ] A 2011 study conducted by researchers at the University of Minnesota indicated that male and female editors focus on different coverage topics. There was a greater concentration of females in the "people and arts" category, while males focus more on "geography and science". [ 212 ] An editorial in The Guardian in 2014 claimed that more effort went into providing references for a list of female porn actors than a list of women writers . [ 213 ] Systemic biases Wikipedia's policies may limit "its capacity for truly representing global knowledge". For example, Wikipedia only considers published sources to be reliable. Oral knowledge of Indigenous cultures is not always reflected in print. Marginalized topics are also more likely to lack significant coverage in reliable sources. Wikipedia's content is therefore limited as a result of larger systemic biases. [ 214 ] Academic studies of Wikipedia have shown that the average contributor to the English Wikipedia is an educated, technically inclined white male, aged 15–49, from a developed, predominantly Christian country. [ 215 ] The corresponding point of view (POV) is over-represented. [ 216 ] [ 165 ] This systemic bias in editor demographic results in cultural bias , gender bias , and geographical bias on Wikipedia . [ 217 ] [ 218 ] There are two broad types of bias, which are implicit (when a topic is omitted) and explicit (when a certain POV is over-represented in an article or by references). [ 216 ] Interdisciplinary scholarly assessments of Wikipedia articles have found that while articles are typically accurate and free of misinformation, they are also typically incomplete and fail to present all perspectives with a neutral point of view . [ 217 ] In 2011, Wales claimed that the unevenness of coverage is a reflection of the demography of the editors, citing for example "biographies of famous women through history and issues surrounding early childcare". [ 36 ] The October 22, 2013, essay by Tom Simonite in MIT's Technology Review titled "The Decline of Wikipedia" discussed the effect of systemic bias and policy creep on the downward trend in the number of editors . [ 37 ] Research conducted by Mark Graham of the Oxford Internet Institute in 2009 indicated that the geographic distribution of article topics is highly uneven, with Africa being the most underrepresented. [ 219 ] Across 30 language editions of Wikipedia, historical articles and sections are generally Eurocentric and focused on recent events. [ 220 ] Explicit content Wikipedia has been criticized for allowing information about graphic content. [ 221 ] Articles depicting what some critics have called objectionable content (such as feces , cadaver , human penis , vulva , and nudity) contain graphic pictures and detailed information easily available to anyone with access to the internet, including children. [ W 51 ] The site also includes sexual content such as images and videos of masturbation and ejaculation , illustrations of zoophilia , and photos from hardcore pornographic films in its articles. It also has non-sexual photographs of nude children . [ W 52 ] The Wikipedia article about Virgin Killer —a 1976 album from the German rock band Scorpions —features a picture of the album's original cover, which depicts a naked prepubescent girl. The original release cover caused controversy and was replaced in some countries. In December 2008, access to the Wikipedia article Virgin Killer was blocked for four days by most Internet service providers in the United Kingdom after the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) decided the album cover was a potentially illegal indecent image and added the article's URL to a "blacklist" it supplies to British internet service providers. [ 222 ] In April 2010, Sanger wrote a letter to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, outlining his concerns that two categories of images on Wikimedia Commons contained child pornography, and were in violation of US federal obscenity law . [ 223 ] [ 224 ] Sanger later clarified that the images, which were related to pedophilia and one about lolicon , were not of real children, but said that they constituted "obscene visual representations of the sexual abuse of children", under the PROTECT Act of 2003 . [ 225 ] That law bans photographic child pornography and cartoon images and drawings of children that are obscene under American law . [ 225 ] Sanger also expressed concerns about access to the images on Wikipedia in schools. [ 226 ] Wikimedia Foundation spokesman Jay Walsh strongly rejected Sanger's accusation, [ 227 ] saying that Wikipedia did not have "material we would deem to be illegal. If we did, we would remove it." [ 227 ] Following the complaint by Sanger, Wales deleted sexual images without consulting the community. After some editors who volunteered to maintain the site argued that the decision to delete had been made hastily, Wales voluntarily gave up some of the powers he had held up to that time as part of his co-founder status. He wrote in a message to the Wikimedia Foundation mailing-list that this action was "in the interest of encouraging this discussion to be about real philosophical/content issues, rather than be about me and how quickly I acted". [ 228 ] Critics, including Wikipediocracy , noticed that many of the pornographic images deleted from Wikipedia since 2010 have reappeared. [ 229 ] Privacy One privacy concern in the case of Wikipedia regards one's right to remain a private citizen rather than a public figure in the eyes of the law. [ 230 ] [ g ] It is a battle between the right to be anonymous in cyberspace and the right to be anonymous in real life . The Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy states, "we believe that you shouldn't have to provide personal information to participate in the free knowledge movement", and states that "personal information" may be shared "For legal reasons", "To Protect You, Ourselves & Others", or "To Understand & Experiment". [ W 53 ] In January 2006, a German court ordered the German Wikipedia shut down within Germany because it stated the full name of Boris Floricic , aka "Tron", a deceased hacker. On February 9, 2006, the injunction against Wikimedia Deutschland was overturned, with the court rejecting the notion that Tron's right to privacy or that of his parents was being violated. [ 231 ] Wikipedia has a " .mw-parser-output .vanchor>:target~.vanchor-text{background-color:#b1d2ff}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .vanchor>:target~.vanchor-text{background-color:#0f4dc9}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .vanchor>:target~.vanchor-text{background-color:#0f4dc9}} Volunteer Response Team " that uses Znuny, a free and open-source software fork of OTRS [ W 54 ] to handle queries without having to reveal the identities of the involved parties. This is used, for example, in confirming the permission for using individual images and other media in the project. [ W 55 ] In late April 2023, Wikimedia Foundation announced that Wikipedia will not submit to any age verifications that may be required by the UK's Online Safety Bill legislation. Rebecca MacKinnon of the Wikimedia Foundation said that such checks would run counter to the website's commitment to minimal data collection on its contributors and readers. [ 232 ] Sexism Wikipedia was described in 2015 as harboring a battleground culture of sexism and harassment . [ 233 ] [ 234 ] The perceived tolerance of abusive language was a reason put forth in 2013 for the gender gap in Wikipedia editorship. [ 235 ] Edit-a-thons have been held to encourage female editors and increase the coverage of women's topics. [ 236 ] In May 2018, a Wikipedia editor rejected a submitted article about Donna Strickland due to lack of coverage in the media. [ W 56 ] [ 237 ] Five months later, Strickland won a Nobel Prize in Physics "for groundbreaking inventions in the field of laser physics", becoming the third woman to ever receive the award. [ 237 ] [ 238 ] Prior to winning the award, Strickland's only mention on Wikipedia was in the article about her collaborator and co-winner of the award Gérard Mourou . [ 237 ] Her exclusion from Wikipedia led to accusations of sexism, but Corinne Purtill writing for Quartz argued that "it's also a pointed lesson in the hazards of gender bias in media, and of the broader consequences of underrepresentation." [ 239 ] Purtill attributes the issue to the gender bias in media coverage. [ 239 ] A comprehensive 2008 survey, published in 2016, by Julia B. Bear of Stony Brook University 's College of Business and Benjamin Collier of Carnegie Mellon University found significant gender differences in confidence in expertise, discomfort with editing, and response to critical feedback. "Women reported less confidence in their expertise, expressed greater discomfort with editing (which typically involves conflict), and reported more negative responses to critical feedback compared to men." [ 240 ] Operation Wikimedia Foundation and affiliate movements Wikipedia is hosted and funded by the Wikimedia Foundation , a non-profit organization which also operates Wikipedia-related projects such as Wiktionary and Wikibooks . [ W 57 ] The foundation relies on public contributions and grants to fund its mission. [ 241 ] [ W 58 ] The foundation's 2020 Internal Revenue Service Form 990 shows revenue of $124.6 million and expenses of almost $112.2 million, with assets of about $191.2 million and liabilities of almost $11 million. [ W 59 ] In May 2014, Wikimedia Foundation named Lila Tretikov as its second executive director, taking over for Sue Gardner. [ W 60 ] The Wall Street Journal reported on May 1, 2014, that Tretikov's information technology background, from her years at University of California offers Wikipedia an opportunity to develop in more concentrated directions guided by her often repeated position statement that, "Information, like air, wants to be free." [ 242 ] [ 243 ] The same Wall Street Journal article reported these directions of development according to an interview with spokesman Jay Walsh of Wikimedia, who "said Tretikov would address that issue ( paid advocacy ) as a priority. 'We are really pushing toward more transparency ... We are reinforcing that paid advocacy is not welcome.' Initiatives to involve greater diversity of contributors, better mobile support of Wikipedia, new geo-location tools to find local content more easily, and more tools for users in the second and third world are also priorities", Walsh said. [ 242 ] Following the departure of Tretikov from Wikipedia due to issues concerning the use of the "superprotection" feature which some language versions of Wikipedia have adopted, [ W 61 ] Katherine Maher became the third executive director of the Wikimedia Foundation in June 2016. [ W 62 ] Maher stated that one of her priorities would be the issue of editor harassment endemic to Wikipedia as identified by the Wikipedia board in December. She said to Bloomberg Businessweek regarding the harassment issue that: "It establishes a sense within the community that this is a priority ... [and that correction requires that] it has to be more than words." [ 142 ] Maher served as executive director until April 2021. [ 244 ] Maryana Iskander was named the incoming CEO in September 2021, and took over that role in January 2022. She stated that one of her focuses would be increasing diversity in the Wikimedia community. [ 245 ] Wikipedia is also supported by many organizations and groups that are affiliated with the Wikimedia Foundation but independently-run, called Wikimedia movement affiliates . These include Wikimedia chapters (which are national or sub-national organizations, such as Wikimedia Deutschland and Wikimedia France), thematic organizations (such as Amical Wikimedia for the Catalan language community), and user groups. These affiliates participate in the promotion, development, and funding of Wikipedia. [ W 63 ] Software operations and support The operation of Wikipedia depends on MediaWiki , a custom-made, free and open source wiki software platform written in PHP and built upon the MySQL database system. [ W 64 ] The software incorporates programming features such as a macro language , variables , a transclusion system for templates , and URL redirection . [ W 65 ] MediaWiki is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL) and it is used by all Wikimedia projects, as well as many other wiki projects. [ W 64 ] [ W 66 ] Originally, Wikipedia ran on UseModWiki written in Perl by Clifford Adams (Phase I), which initially required CamelCase for article hyperlinks; the present double bracket style was incorporated later. [ W 67 ] Starting in January 2002 (Phase II), Wikipedia began running on a PHP wiki engine with a MySQL database; this software was custom-made for Wikipedia by Magnus Manske . The Phase II software was repeatedly modified to accommodate the exponentially increasing demand. In July 2002 (Phase III), Wikipedia shifted to the third-generation software, MediaWiki, originally written by Lee Daniel Crocker . Several MediaWiki extensions are installed to extend the functionality of the MediaWiki software. [ W 68 ] In April 2005, a Lucene extension [ W 69 ] [ W 70 ] was added to MediaWiki's built-in search and Wikipedia switched from MySQL to Lucene for searching. Lucene was later replaced by CirrusSearch which is based on Elasticsearch . [ W 71 ] In July 2013, after extensive beta testing, a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) extension, VisualEditor , was opened to public use. [ 246 ] [ 247 ] [ 248 ] It was met with much rejection and criticism, and was described as "slow and buggy". [ 249 ] The feature was changed from opt-out to opt-in afterward. [ W 72 ] Automated editing Computer programs called bots have often been used to perform simple and repetitive tasks, such as correcting common misspellings and stylistic issues, or to start articles such as geography entries in a standard format from statistical data. [ W 73 ] [ 250 ] [ 251 ] One controversial contributor, Sverker Johansson , created articles with his bot Lsjbot , which was reported to create up to 10,000 articles on the Swedish Wikipedia on certain days. [ 252 ] Additionally, there are bots designed to automatically notify editors when they make common editing errors (such as unmatched quotes or unmatched parentheses). [ W 74 ] Edits falsely identified by bots as the work of a banned editor can be restored by other editors. An anti-vandal bot is programmed to detect and revert vandalism quickly. [ 250 ] Bots are able to indicate edits from particular accounts or IP address ranges, as occurred at the time of the shooting down of the MH17 jet in July 2014 when it was reported that edits were made via IPs controlled by the Russian government. [ 253 ] Bots on Wikipedia must be approved before activation. [ W 75 ] According to Andrew Lih , the current expansion of Wikipedia to millions of articles would be difficult to envision without the use of such bots. [ 254 ] Hardware operations and support As of 2021, [update] page requests are first passed to a front-end layer of Varnish caching servers and back-end layer caching is done by Apache Traffic Server . [ W 76 ] Requests that cannot be served from the Varnish cache are sent to load-balancing servers running the Linux Virtual Server software, which in turn pass them to one of the Apache web servers for page rendering from the database. [ W 76 ] The web servers deliver pages as requested, performing page rendering for all the language editions of Wikipedia. To increase speed further, rendered pages are cached in a distributed memory cache until invalidated, allowing page rendering to be skipped entirely for most common page accesses. [ 255 ] Wikipedia currently runs on dedicated clusters of Linux servers running the Debian operating system. [ W 77 ] By January 22, 2013, Wikipedia had migrated its primary data center to an Equinix facility in Ashburn, Virginia . [ W 78 ] [ 256 ] A second application data center was created in 2014 in Carrollton, Texas , to improve Wikipedia's reliability. [ 257 ] [ 258 ] Both datacenters work as the primary one, in alternate semesters, with the other one working as secondary datacenter. [ 259 ] In 2017, Wikipedia installed a caching cluster in an Equinix facility in Singapore , the first of its kind in Asia. [ W 79 ] In 2022, a caching data center was opened in Marseille , France. [ W 80 ] In 2024, a caching data center was opened in São Paulo , the first of its kind in South America. [ W 81 ] As of November 2024, [update] caching clusters are located in Amsterdam , San Francisco, Singapore, Marseille, and São Paulo. [ W 82 ] [ W 83 ] Internal research and operational development Following growing amounts of incoming donations in 2013 exceeding seven digits, [ 37 ] the Foundation has reached a threshold of assets which qualify its consideration under the principles of industrial organization economics to indicate the need for the re-investment of donations into the internal research and development of the Foundation. [ 260 ] Two projects of such internal research and development have been the creation of a Visual Editor and the "Thank" tab in the edit history, which were developed to improve issues of editor attrition. [ 37 ] [ 249 ] The estimates for reinvestment by industrial organizations into internal research and development was studied by Adam Jaffe , who recorded that the range of 4% to 25% annually was to be recommended, with high-end technology requiring the higher level of support for internal reinvestment. [ 261 ] At the 2013 level of contributions for Wikimedia presently documented as 45 million dollars, [ W 84 ] the computed budget level recommended by Jaffe for reinvestment into internal research and development is between 1.8 million and 11.3 million dollars annually. [ 261 ] In 2019, the level of contributions were reported by the Wikimedia Foundation as being at $120 million annually, [ W 85 ] updating the Jaffe estimates for the higher level of support to between $3.08 million and $19.2 million annually. [ 261 ] Internal news publications Multiple Wikimedia projects have internal news publications. Wikimedia 's online newspaper The Signpost was founded in 2005 by Michael Snow, a Wikipedia administrator who would join the Wikimedia Foundation's board of trustees in 2008. [ 262 ] [ 263 ] The publication covers news and events from the English Wikipedia, the Wikimedia Foundation, and Wikipedia's sister projects . [ W 86 ] The Wikipedia Library Wikipedia editors sometimes struggle to access paywalled sources needed to improve a subject. [ 264 ] The Wikipedia Library is a resource for Wikipedia editors which provides free access to a wide range of digital publications , so that they can consult and cite these while editing the encyclopedia. [ 265 ] [ 266 ] Over 60 publishers have partnered with The Wikipedia Library to provide access to their resources: when ICE Publishing joined in 2020, a spokesman said "By enabling free access to our content for Wikipedia editors, we hope to further the research community's resources – creating and updating Wikipedia entries on civil engineering which are read by thousands of monthly readers." [ 267 ] Access to content Content licensing When the project was started in 2001, all text in Wikipedia was covered by the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL), a copyleft license permitting the redistribution, creation of derivative works, and commercial use of content while authors retain copyright of their work. [ W 87 ] The GFDL was created for software manuals that come with free software programs licensed under the GPL . This made it a poor choice for a general reference work: for example, the GFDL requires the reprints of materials from Wikipedia to come with a full copy of the GFDL text. [ 268 ] In December 2002, the Creative Commons license was released; it was specifically designed for creative works in general, not just for software manuals. The Wikipedia project sought the switch to the Creative Commons. [ W 88 ] Because the GFDL and Creative Commons were incompatible, in November 2008, following the request of the project, the Free Software Foundation (FSF) released a new version of the GFDL designed specifically to allow Wikipedia to relicense its content to CC BY-SA by August 1, 2009. [ W 89 ] In April 2009, Wikipedia and its sister projects held a community-wide referendum which decided the switch in June 2009. [ W 90 ] [ W 91 ] [ W 92 ] [ W 93 ] The handling of media files (e.g. image files) varies across language editions. Some language editions, such as the English Wikipedia, include non-free image files under fair use doctrine, [ W 94 ] while the others have opted not to, in part because of the lack of fair use doctrines in their home countries (e.g. in Japanese copyright law ). Media files covered by free content licenses (e.g. Creative Commons ' CC BY-SA ) are shared across language editions via Wikimedia Commons repository, a project operated by the Wikimedia Foundation. [ W 95 ] Wikipedia's accommodation of varying international copyright laws regarding images has led some to observe that its photographic coverage of topics lags behind the quality of the encyclopedic text. [ 269 ] The Wikimedia Foundation is not a licensor of content on Wikipedia or its related projects but merely a hosting service for contributors to and licensors of Wikipedia, a position which was successfully defended in 2004 in a court in France. [ 270 ] [ 271 ] Methods of access Since Wikipedia content is distributed under an open license, anyone can reuse or re-distribute it at no charge. [ W 96 ] The content of Wikipedia has been published in many forms, both online and offline, outside the Wikipedia website. Thousands of " mirror sites " exist that republish content from Wikipedia; two prominent ones that also include content from other reference sources are Reference.com and Answers.com . [ 272 ] [ 273 ] Another example is Wapedia , which began to display Wikipedia content in a mobile-device-friendly format before Wikipedia itself did. [ W 97 ] Some web search engines make special use of Wikipedia content when displaying search results: examples include Microsoft Bing (via technology gained from Powerset ) [ 274 ] and DuckDuckGo . Collections of Wikipedia articles have been published on optical discs . An English version released in 2006 contained about 2,000 articles. [ W 98 ] The Polish-language version from 2006 contains nearly 240,000 articles, [ W 99 ] the German-language version from 2007/2008 contains over 620,000 articles, [ W 100 ] and the Spanish-language version from 2011 contains 886,000 articles. [ W 101 ] Additionally, "Wikipedia for Schools", the Wikipedia series of CDs / DVDs produced by Wikipedia and SOS Children , is a free selection from Wikipedia designed for education towards children eight to seventeen. [ W 102 ] There have been efforts to put a select subset of Wikipedia's articles into printed book form. [ 275 ] [ W 103 ] Since 2009, tens of thousands of print-on-demand books that reproduced English, German, Russian, and French Wikipedia articles have been produced by the American company Books LLC and by three Mauritian subsidiaries of the German publisher VDM . [ 276 ] The website DBpedia , begun in 2007, extracts data from the infoboxes and category declarations of the English-language Wikipedia. [ 277 ] Wikimedia has created the Wikidata project with a similar objective of storing the basic facts from each page of Wikipedia and other Wikimedia Foundation projects and make it available in a queryable semantic format, RDF . [ W 104 ] As of February 2023, [update] it has over 101 million items. [ W 105 ] WikiReader is a dedicated reader device that contains an offline copy of Wikipedia, which was launched by OpenMoko and first released in 2009. [ W 106 ] Obtaining the full contents of Wikipedia for reuse presents challenges, since direct cloning via a web crawler is discouraged. [ W 107 ] Wikipedia publishes " dumps " of its contents, but these are text-only; as of 2023, [update] there is no dump available of Wikipedia's images. [ W 108 ] Wikimedia Enterprise is a for-profit solution to this. [ 278 ] Several languages of Wikipedia also maintain a reference desk, where volunteers answer questions from the general public. According to a study by Pnina Shachaf in the Journal of Documentation , the quality of the Wikipedia reference desk is comparable to a standard library reference desk , with an accuracy of 55 percent. [ 279 ] Mobile access Wikipedia's original medium was for users to read and edit content using any standard web browser through a fixed Internet connection . Although Wikipedia content has been accessible through the mobile web since July 2013, The New York Times on February 9, 2014, quoted Erik Möller , deputy director of the Wikimedia Foundation, stating that the transition of internet traffic from desktops to mobile devices was significant and a cause for concern and worry. The article in The New York Times reported the comparison statistics for mobile edits stating that, "Only 20 percent of the readership of the English-language Wikipedia comes via mobile devices, a figure substantially lower than the percentage of mobile traffic for other media sites, many of which approach 50 percent. And the shift to mobile editing has lagged even more." In 2014 The New York Times reported that Möller has assigned "a team of 10 software developers focused on mobile", out of a total of approximately 200 employees working at the Wikimedia Foundation. One principal concern cited by The New York Times for the "worry" is for Wikipedia to effectively address attrition issues with the number of editors which the online encyclopedia attracts to edit and maintain its content in a mobile access environment. [ 51 ] By 2023, the Wikimedia Foundation's staff had grown to over 700 employees. [ 1 ] Access to Wikipedia from mobile phones was possible as early as 2004, through the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), via the Wapedia service. [ W 97 ] In June 2007, Wikipedia launched en.mobile.wikipedia.org, an official website for wireless devices. In 2009, a newer mobile service was officially released, located at en.m.wikipedia.org, which caters to more advanced mobile devices such as the iPhone , Android -based devices, or WebOS -based devices. [ W 109 ] Several other methods of mobile access to Wikipedia have emerged since. Many devices and applications optimize or enhance the display of Wikipedia content for mobile devices, while some also incorporate additional features such as use of Wikipedia metadata like geoinformation . [ 280 ] [ 281 ] The Android app for Wikipedia was released in January 2012, to over 500,000 installs and generally positive reviews, scoring over four of a possible five in a poll of approximately 200,000 users downloading from Google. [ W 110 ] [ W 111 ] The version for iOS was released on April 3, 2013, to similar reviews. [ W 112 ] Wikipedia Zero was an initiative of the Wikimedia Foundation to expand the reach of the encyclopedia to the developing countries by partnering with mobile operators to allow free access. [ W 113 ] [ 282 ] It was discontinued in February 2018 due to lack of participation from mobile operators. [ W 113 ] Andrew Lih and Andrew Brown both maintain editing Wikipedia with smartphones is difficult and this discourages new potential contributors. [ 283 ] [ 284 ] Lih states that the number of Wikipedia editors has been declining after several years, [ 283 ] and Tom Simonite of MIT Technology Review claims the bureaucratic structure and rules are a factor in this. Simonite alleges some Wikipedians use the labyrinthine rules and guidelines to dominate others and those editors have a vested interest in keeping the status quo. [ 37 ] Lih alleges there is a serious disagreement among existing contributors on how to resolve this. Lih fears for Wikipedia's long-term future while Brown fears problems with Wikipedia will remain and rival encyclopedias will not replace it. [ 283 ] [ 284 ] Chinese access Access to Wikipedia has been blocked in mainland China since May 2015. [ 6 ] [ 285 ] [ 286 ] This was done after Wikipedia started to use HTTPS encryption, which made selective censorship more difficult. [ 287 ] Cultural influence Trusted source to combat fake news In 2017–18, after a barrage of false news reports, both Facebook and YouTube announced they would rely on Wikipedia to help their users evaluate reports and reject false news. [ 288 ] [ 289 ] Noam Cohen , writing in The Washington Post states, "YouTube's reliance on Wikipedia to set the record straight builds on the thinking of another fact-challenged platform, the Facebook social network, which announced last year that Wikipedia would help its users root out ' fake news '." [ 289 ] [ 290 ] Readership In February 2014, The New York Times reported that Wikipedia was ranked fifth globally among all websites, stating "With 18 billion page views and nearly 500 million unique visitors a month, ... Wikipedia trails just Yahoo, Facebook, Microsoft and Google, the largest with 1.2 billion unique visitors." [ 51 ] However, its ranking dropped to 13th globally by June 2020 due mostly to a rise in popularity of Chinese websites for online shopping. [ 43 ] The website has since recovered its ranking as of April 2022. [ 43 ] In addition to logistic growth in the number of its articles, [ W 114 ] Wikipedia has steadily gained status as a general reference website since its inception in 2001. [ 291 ] The number of readers of Wikipedia worldwide reached 365 million at the end of 2009. [ W 115 ] The Pew Internet and American Life project found that one third of US Internet users consulted Wikipedia. [ 292 ] In 2011, Business Insider gave Wikipedia a valuation of $4 billion if it ran advertisements. [ 293 ] According to "Wikipedia Readership Survey 2011", the average age of Wikipedia readers is 36, with a rough parity between genders. Almost half of Wikipedia readers visit the site more than five times a month, and a similar number of readers specifically look for Wikipedia in search engine results. About 47 percent of Wikipedia readers do not realize that Wikipedia is a non-profit organization. [ W 116 ] As of February 2023, [update] Wikipedia attracts around 2 billion unique devices monthly, with the English Wikipedia receiving 10 billion pageviews each month. [ W 1 ] COVID-19 pandemic During the COVID-19 pandemic , Wikipedia's coverage of the pandemic and fight against misinformation received international media attention, and brought an increase in Wikipedia readership overall. [ 294 ] [ 295 ] [ 296 ] [ 297 ] Noam Cohen wrote in Wired that Wikipedia's effort to combat misinformation related to the pandemic was different from other major websites, opining, "Unless Twitter, Facebook and the others can learn to address misinformation more effectively, Wikipedia will remain the last best place on the Internet." [ 295 ] In October 2020, the World Health Organization announced they were freely licensing its infographics and other materials on Wikimedia projects. [ 298 ] There were nearly 7,000 COVID-19 related Wikipedia articles across 188 different Wikipedias, as of November 2021. [update] [ 299 ] [ 300 ] Cultural significance Wikipedia's content has also been used in academic studies, books, conferences, and court cases. [ W 117 ] [ 301 ] [ 302 ] The Parliament of Canada 's website refers to Wikipedia's article on same-sex marriage in the "related links" section of its "further reading" list for the Civil Marriage Act . [ 303 ] The encyclopedia's assertions are increasingly used as a source by organizations such as the US federal courts and the World Intellectual Property Organization [ 304 ] —though mainly for supporting information rather than information decisive to a case. [ 305 ] Content appearing on Wikipedia has also been cited as a source and referenced in some US intelligence agency reports. [ 306 ] In December 2008, the scientific journal RNA Biology launched a new section for descriptions of families of RNA molecules and requires authors who contribute to the section to also submit a draft article on the RNA family for publication in Wikipedia. [ 307 ] Wikipedia has also been used as a source in journalism, [ 308 ] [ 309 ] often without attribution, and several reporters have been dismissed for plagiarizing from Wikipedia . [ 310 ] [ 311 ] [ 312 ] [ 313 ] In 2006, Time magazine recognized Wikipedia's participation (along with YouTube, Reddit , MySpace , and Facebook) in the rapid growth of online collaboration and interaction by millions of people worldwide. [ 314 ] On September 16, 2007, The Washington Post reported that Wikipedia had become a focal point in the 2008 US election campaign , saying: "Type a candidate's name into Google, and among the first results is a Wikipedia page, making those entries arguably as important as any ad in defining a candidate. Already, the presidential entries are being edited, dissected and debated countless times each day." [ 315 ] An October 2007 Reuters article, titled "Wikipedia page the latest status symbol", reported the recent phenomenon of how having a Wikipedia article vindicates one's notability. [ 316 ] One of the first times Wikipedia was involved in a governmental affair was on September 28, 2007, when Italian politician Franco Grillini raised a parliamentary question with the minister of cultural resources and activities about the necessity of freedom of panorama . He said that the lack of such freedom forced Wikipedia, "the seventh most consulted website", to forbid all images of modern Italian buildings and art, and claimed this was hugely damaging to tourist revenues. [ 317 ] A working group led by Peter Stone (formed as a part of the Stanford -based project One Hundred Year Study on Artificial Intelligence ) in its report called Wikipedia "the best-known example of crowdsourcing ... that far exceeds traditionally-compiled information sources, such as encyclopedias and dictionaries, in scale and depth". [ 318 ] [ 319 ] In a 2017 opinion piece for Wired , Hossein Derakhshan describes Wikipedia as "one of the last remaining pillars of the open and decentralized web " and contrasted its existence as a text-based source of knowledge with social media and social networking services , the latter having "since colonized the web for television's values". For Derakhshan, Wikipedia's goal as an encyclopedia represents the Age of Enlightenment tradition of rationality triumphing over emotions, a trend which he considers "endangered" due to the "gradual shift from a typographic culture to a photographic one, which in turn mean[s] a shift from rationality to emotions, exposition to entertainment". Rather than " sapere aude " ( lit. ' dare to know ' ), social networks have led to a culture of "dare not to care to know". This is while Wikipedia faces "a more concerning problem" than funding, namely "a flattening growth rate in the number of contributors to the website". Consequently, the challenge for Wikipedia and those who use it is to "save Wikipedia and its promise of a free and open collection of all human knowledge amid the conquest of new and old television—how to collect and preserve knowledge when nobody cares to know." [ 320 ] Awards Wikipedia has won many awards, receiving its first two major awards in May 2004. [ W 118 ] The first was a Golden Nica for Digital Communities of the annual Prix Ars Electronica contest; this came with a €10,000 (£6,588; $12,700) grant and an invitation to present at the PAE Cyberarts Festival in Austria later that year. The second was a Judges' Webby Award for the "community" category. [ 321 ] In September 2008, Wikipedia received Quadriga A Mission of Enlightenment award of Werkstatt Deutschland along with Boris Tadić , Eckart Höfling , and Peter Gabriel . The award was presented to Wales by David Weinberger . [ 322 ] In 2015, Wikipedia was awarded both the annual Erasmus Prize , which recognizes exceptional contributions to culture, society or social sciences, [ 323 ] and the Spanish Princess of Asturias Award on International Cooperation. [ 324 ] Speaking at the Asturian Parliament in Oviedo, the city that hosts the awards ceremony, Jimmy Wales praised the work of the Asturian Wikipedia users. [ 325 ] Satire Comedian Stephen Colbert has parodied or referenced Wikipedia on numerous episodes of his show The Colbert Report and coined the related term wikiality , meaning "together we can create a reality that we all agree on—the reality we just agreed on". [ 192 ] Another example can be found in "Wikipedia Celebrates 750 Years of American Independence", a July 2006 front-page article in The Onion , [ 326 ] as well as the 2010 The Onion article " 'L.A. Law' Wikipedia Page Viewed 874 Times Today". [ 327 ] In an April 2007 episode of the American television comedy The Office , office manager ( Michael Scott ) is shown relying on a hypothetical Wikipedia article for information on negotiation tactics to assist him in negotiating lesser pay for an employee. [ 328 ] Viewers of the show tried to add the episode's mention of the page as a section of the actual Wikipedia article on negotiation, but this effort was prevented by other users on the article's talk page. [ 329 ] " My Number One Doctor ", a 2007 episode of the television show Scrubs , played on the perception that Wikipedia is an unreliable reference tool with a scene in which Perry Cox reacts to a patient who says that a Wikipedia article indicates that the raw food diet reverses the effects of bone cancer by retorting that the same editor who wrote that article also wrote the Battlestar Galactica episode guide . [ 330 ] In 2008, the comedy website CollegeHumor produced a video sketch named "Professor Wikipedia", in which the fictitious Professor Wikipedia instructs a class with a medley of unverifiable and occasionally absurd statements. [ 331 ] The Dilbert comic strip from May 8, 2009, features a character supporting an improbable claim by saying "Give me ten minutes and then check Wikipedia." [ 332 ] In July 2009, BBC Radio 4 broadcast a comedy series called Bigipedia , which was set on a website which was a parody of Wikipedia. [ 333 ] Some of the sketches were directly inspired by Wikipedia and its articles. [ 334 ] On August 23, 2013, the New Yorker website published a cartoon with this caption: "Dammit, Manning, have you considered the pronoun war that this is going to start on your Wikipedia page?" [ 335 ] The cartoon referred to Chelsea Elizabeth Manning (born Bradley Edward Manning), an American activist, politician, and former United States Army soldier who had recently come out as a trans woman . [ 336 ] In June 2024, nature.com published a fictional Wikipedia Talk page under the title "Plastic-eating fungus caused doomsday" by Emma Burnett. The Talk page concerned a fictional article describing the unintended consequences of the release of a plastic-eating fungus to clean up an oil spill. The article contained Talk page topics found on Wikipedia, like discussions of changes in the articles priority level. [ 337 ] Publishing The most obvious economic effect of Wikipedia has been the death of commercial encyclopedias, especially printed versions like Encyclopædia Britannica , which were unable to compete with a free alternative. [ 338 ] [ 339 ] [ 340 ] Nicholas Carr 's 2005 essay "The amorality of Web 2.0 " criticizes websites with user-generated content (like Wikipedia) for possibly leading to professional (and, in his view, superior) content producers' going out of business, because "free trumps quality all the time". Carr wrote, "Implicit in the ecstatic visions of Web 2.0 is the hegemony of the amateur. I for one can't imagine anything more frightening." [ 341 ] Others dispute the notion that Wikipedia, or similar efforts, will entirely displace traditional publications. Chris Anderson , the former editor-in-chief of Wired , wrote in Nature that the " wisdom of crowds " approach of Wikipedia will not displace top scientific journals with rigorous peer review processes. [ 342 ] Wikipedia's influence on the biography publishing business has been a concern for some. Book publishing data tracker Nielsen BookScan stated in 2013 that biography sales were dropping "far more sharply". [ 343 ] Kathryn Hughes , professor of life writing at the University of East Anglia and author of two biographies wrote, "The worry is that, if you can get all that information from Wikipedia, what's left for biography?" [ 343 ] Research use Wikipedia has been widely used as a corpus for linguistic research in computational linguistics , information retrieval and natural language processing . [ 344 ] [ 345 ] In particular, it commonly serves as a target knowledge base for the entity linking problem, which is then called "wikification", [ 346 ] and to the related problem of word-sense disambiguation . [ 347 ] Methods similar to wikification can in turn be used to find "missing" links in Wikipedia. [ 348 ] In 2015, French researchers José Lages of the University of Franche-Comté in Besançon and Dima Shepelyansky of Paul Sabatier University in Toulouse published a global university ranking based on Wikipedia scholarly citations. [ 349 ] [ 350 ] [ 351 ] They used PageRank , CheiRank and similar algorithms "followed by the number of appearances in the 24 different language editions of Wikipedia (descending order) and the century in which they were founded (ascending order)". [ 351 ] [ 352 ] The study was updated in 2019. [ 353 ] In December 2015, John Julius Norwich stated, in a letter published in The Times newspaper, that as a historian he resorted to Wikipedia "at least a dozen times a day", and had "never caught it out". He described it as "a work of reference as useful as any in existence", with so wide a range that it is almost impossible to find a person, place, or thing that it has left uncovered and that he could never have written his last two books without it. [ 354 ] A 2017 MIT study suggests that words used in Wikipedia articles end up in scientific publications. [ 355 ] Studies related to Wikipedia have been using machine learning and artificial intelligence [ 319 ] to support various operations. One of the most important areas is the automatic detection of vandalism [ 356 ] [ 357 ] and data quality assessment in Wikipedia. [ 358 ] [ 359 ] Related projects Several interactive multimedia encyclopedias incorporating entries written by the public existed long before Wikipedia was founded. The first of these was the 1986 BBC Domesday Project , which included text (entered on BBC Micro computers) and photographs from more than a million contributors in the UK, and covered the geography, art, and culture of the UK. This was the first interactive multimedia encyclopedia (and was also the first major multimedia document connected through internal links), with the majority of articles being accessible through an interactive map of the UK. The user interface and part of the content of the Domesday Project were emulated on a website until 2008. [ 360 ] Several free-content, collaborative encyclopedias were created around the same period as Wikipedia (e.g. Everything2 ), [ 361 ] with many later being merged into the project (e.g. GNE ). [ W 119 ] One of the most successful early online encyclopedias incorporating entries by the public was h2g2 , which was created by Douglas Adams in 1999. The h2g2 encyclopedia is relatively lighthearted, focusing on articles which are both witty and informative. [ 362 ] Subsequent collaborative knowledge websites have drawn inspiration from Wikipedia. Others use more traditional peer review , such as Encyclopedia of Life and the online wiki encyclopedias Scholarpedia and Citizendium . [ 363 ] [ 364 ] The latter was started by Sanger in an attempt to create a reliable alternative to Wikipedia.

There is a certain mindset associated with unmoderated Usenet groups [...] that infects the collectively-managed Wikipedia project: if you react strongly to trolling, that reflects poorly on you, not (necessarily) on the troll. If you [...] demand that something be done about constant disruption by trollish behavior, the other listmembers will cry "censorship", attack you, and even come to the defense of the troll. [...] The root problem: anti-elitism, or lack of respect for expertise. There is a deeper problem [...] which explains both of the above-elaborated problems. Namely, as a community, Wikipedia lacks the habit or tradition of respect for expertise. As a community, far from being elitist, it is anti-elitist (which, in this context, means that expertise is not accorded any special respect, and snubs and disrespect of expertise are tolerated). This is one of my failures: a policy that I attempted to institute in Wikipedia's first year, but for which I did not muster adequate support, was the policy of respecting and deferring politely to experts.

They are not just text, nor just numbers; they are a complex amalgam of narrative and structure. Current Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems have attempted to address this complexity with a blunt tool: linearization. We convert rich, multidimensional tables into simple Markdown-style text strings, hoping that an embedding model will capture the geometry of a spreadsheet in a single vector. But it has already been shown that this is mathematically insufficient. This work presents Topo-RAG, a framework that challenges the assumption that "everything is text". We propose a dual architecture that respects the topology of the data: we route fluid narrative through traditional dense retrievers, while tabular structures are processed by a Cell-Aware Late Interaction mechanism, preserving their spatial relationships. Evaluated on SEC-25, a synthetic enterprise corpus that mimics real-world complexity, Topo-RAG demonstrates an 18.4% improvement in nDCG@10 on hybrid queries compared to standard linearization approaches. It's not just about searching better; it's about understanding the shape of information.

Yinzhi Zhao, Ming Wang, Shi Feng, Xiaocui Yang, Daling Wang, Yifei Zhang Northeastern University, China zhaoyinzhi@stumail.neu.edu.cn Corresponding author Abstract Large language models (LLMs) have achieved impressive performance across natural language tasks and are increasingly deployed in real-world applications. Despite extensive safety alignment efforts, recent studies show that such alignment is often shallow and remains vulnerable to jailbreak attacks. Existing defense mechanisms, including decoding-based constraints and post-hoc content detectors, struggle against sophisticated jailbreaks, often intervening robust detection or excessively degrading model utility. In this work, we examine the decoding process of LLMs and make a key observation: even when successfully jailbroken, models internally exhibit latent safety-related signals during generation. However, these signals are overridden by the model’s drive for fluent continuation, preventing timely self-correction or refusal. Building on this observation, we propose a simple yet effective approach that explicitly surfaces and leverages these latent safety signals for early detection of unsafe content during decoding. Experiments across diverse jailbreak attacks demonstrate that our approach significantly enhances safety, while maintaining low over-refusal rates on benign inputs and preserving response quality. Our results suggest that activating intrinsic safety-awareness during decoding offers a promising and complementary direction for defending against jailbreak attacks. Code is available at: .

Large Language Models (LLMs) Brown et al. ( 2020 ); Ouyang et al. ( 2022 ); Touvron et al. ( 2023 ) have demonstrated impressive capabilities across a wide range of complex tasks Zhang et al. ( 2023 ); Kung et al. ( 2023 ); Jiao et al. ( 2023 ) . These applications highlight the tremendous potential of LLMs in the field of natural language processing. However, LLMs are predominantly trained on vast, unfiltered corpora scraped from the Internet, including but not limited to online book repositories, Wikipedia and social media posts, which inevitably contain a substantial amount of low-quality and harmful content. Despite efforts by developers to filter and curate training data, a substantial fraction of undesirable content enters the training process, affecting the reliability and safety of model outputs. This phenomenon has led to concerning behaviors during human interaction Gehman et al. ( 2020 ); Carlini et al. ( 2021 ); McGuffie and Newhouse ( 2020 ) . To mitigate these risks, recent advancements, such as Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) Ouyang et al. ( 2022 ); Qi et al. ( 2025 ) , Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) Christiano et al. ( 2017 ) , and Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) Rafailov et al. ( 2023 ); Zhang et al. ( 2025a ); Maeng et al. ( 2025 ) , have significantly improved the alignment of LLMs with human values and safety requirements. Nevertheless, a recent study has shown that these safety alignment efforts often remain “shallow” Qi et al. ( 2025 ) . Such shallow alignment renders LLMs susceptible to a wide range of jailbreak attacks. These attacks use techniques such as prompt injection, deception, role-play, and adversarial suffixes Chao et al. ( 2025 ); Liu et al. ( 2023b ); Yu et al. ( 2024 ); Zou et al. ( 2023 ); Liu et al. ( 2024b ) to bypass the model’s safety alignment, causing the model to generate harmful content. Empirically, we observe that when LLMs are successfully attacked and generate clearly harmful content, they occasionally append a disclaimer or safety warning afterward as a form of remediation, as illustrated in Figure 1 . This behavior indicates that the model is not entirely unaware of the harmful nature of its output. Instead, it retains a latent sense of safety-awareness throughout the decoding process. However, this awareness is often suppressed because the model prioritizes generating fluent and coherent responses based on the already generated context, which prevents the model from correcting itself, yet leaves room for external intervention mechanisms. Building on these observations, we propose SafeProbing , which uses the model’s intrinsic safety-awareness during decoding to build defense against jailbreak attacks. Our starting point is the observation that LLMs exhibit a certain degree of intrinsic safety-awareness during the decoding process, which can be exploited in real time. Specifically, we add the phrase “Note that this is” to the generated response and measure the model’s probability for continuing with “illegal and unethical”. This neutral prefix acts as a trigger. It bypasses the model’s default objective of continuing to decode harmful content and encourages the model to assign a higher probability to “illegal and unethical” if it recognizes the earlier content as harmful. Our experiments show that this loss-based probing works best when applied immediately after the model generates unsafe content, while the effect becomes much weaker if the check is delayed, as illustrated in Figure 4 . Thus, we use in-decoding sampling of checkpoints. That is, we perform safety probing during the generation process, not just at the end. If harmful content is detected at any checkpoint, we return a fixed refusal string. In practical deployments, this intervention can also be improved with lightweight post-processing strategies beyond hard refusal. Since the distributional difference between harmful and benign samples is limited, we leverage a small amount of training data to enhance the model’s safety-awareness, thereby improving the discrimination ability of SafeProbing. We conduct extensive experiments across multiple jailbreak attack methods and evaluate on both harmful and utility benchmarks, including over-refusal rate and mathematical ability. Compared with several strong baselines, our method achieves superior defense performance while preserving the general utility and response quality of the model to the greatest extent. Above all, our major contributions are as follows: • We observe that LLMs possess a certain degree of safety-awareness during the generation of harmful content, and we devise a probing method to surface and quantify this safety-awareness. • We propose an efficient in-decoding detection mechanism that leverages safety-awareness signals and simple fine-tuning, achieving timely intervention and strong discrimination between benign and harmful content. • Extensive experiments across multiple jailbreak attacks and benchmarks demonstrate that our method offers robust safety improvement and preserves model utility. Figure 2: An overview of our defense. The model is trained to assign higher probability to the phrase “Note that this is illegal and unethical” after harmful content, and lower probability after benign content. During inference, we randomly sample decoding steps, append “Note that this is”, and use the probability of “illegal and unethical” as an indicator of harmfulness. 2 Related Work 2.1 Jailbreak Attacks on LLMs Jailbreak attacks aim to circumvent the safety mechanisms of LLMs by carefully crafted inputs. One notable approach is the GCG Zou et al. ( 2023 ) , which optimizes discrete tokens using gradient information to attack large models. In an extension of GCG, AutoDAN Liu et al. ( 2024b ) leverages genetic algorithms to optimize prompts while reducing perplexity, making them harder to detect. Andriushchenko et al. ( 2025 ) design simple model-adaptive prompt templates combined with random search and transfer techniques to reliably jailbreak leading safety-aligned language models. PAIR Chao et al. ( 2025 ) generates prompts through multiple rounds of iterative refinement to make the prompts more compelling. CipherChat Yuan et al. ( 2024 ) introduces a method in which communication between the model and an adversary occurs via encrypted messages. Ren et al. ( 2024 ) hide harmful content within the code or latex that the model must simulate and execute, resulting in the model generating harmful responses. 2.2 Defense Methods Mitigation-based Defenses. SafeDecoding Xu et al. ( 2024 ) ensures safety by considering the token probability distributions of both the base model and a trained expert model during the first two token selections. ICD Wei et al. ( 2023 ) involves setting up examples of refusals to harmful questions in the prompt. SmoothLLM Robey et al. ( 2025 ) and Paraphrase Jain et al. ( 2023 ) apply random perturbations to the prompt multiple times. RDS Zeng et al. ( 2025 ) prioritizes the selection of safer tokens during every decoding step. DRO Zheng et al. ( 2024a ) trains continuous soft prompts and embeds them into the prompt to improve the model’s ability to reject harmful prompts, while RPO Zhou et al. ( 2024 ) and PAT Mo et al. ( 2024 ) optimize discrete tokens within the prompt. Detection-based Defenses. Alon and Kamfonas ( 2023 ) use input perplexity as detection mechanisms to defend against GCG. GradSafe Xie et al. ( 2024 ) integrates a special token with the prompt and computes the gradient to classify the harmfulness of the prompt. Backtranslation Wang et al. ( 2024 ) lets the model guess the user’s most malicious prompt based on the responses it generates. SelfEval Phute et al. ( 2024 ) assesses the potential harm in its own responses. RobustAligned Cao et al. ( 2024 ) employs a randomized input dropout method, assessing the safety of the output after removing random substrings from the input. Mitigation-based methods generate safer responses rather than refusing to answer, which reduces over-refusal but often compromises response quality. Detection-based methods, by contrast, simply detect and block harmful content, resulting in higher over-refusal. SafeProbing falls under the detection-based category, but with more accurate identification of harmful content, lower over-refusal rate while preserving model utility and incurring more acceptable additional time overhead. 3 Methodology Despite extensive safety alignment efforts, LLMs remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks Qi et al. ( 2025 ) . As suggested by the emergence of safety disclaimers, models internally recognize the harmful nature of their own generations during decoding. We propose SafeProbing, which directly probes these latent safety signals during decoding. An overview of our method is presented in Figure 2 . 3.1 Key Observations and Insights When aligned models are confronted with crafted malicious prompts, their safety alignment mechanisms can fail. Our observations across multiple LLMs reveal that after generating harmful content, these models sometimes append disclaimers, as illustrated in Figure 1 . This pattern suggests that at certain stages of generation, the model can recognize the harmfulness of its response and add a disclaimer as a compensatory measure. Once the model’s safety alignment is bypassed and it begins to generate harmful content, the decoding process prioritizes fluency and contextual consistency over abrupt self-correction. This results in the complete generation of the harmful output. Nevertheless, this behavior does not imply an absence of safety-awareness within the model. Instead, this safety-awareness persists throughout the decoding process but remains latent, suppressed by the drive for coherent generation and thus not outwardly manifested. Accordingly, we devise a probing method in the subsequent section to surface and quantify this latent safety-awareness. 3.2 Probing Safety-Awareness To systematically exploit safety-awareness of the model itself, we devise a probing method: rather than asking the model to explicitly classify its outputs, we test how confused it is about a disclaimer after generating potentially unsafe content. Specifically, for a given response, we append a fixed phrase “Note that this is illegal and unethical”, and compute the model’s token-level loss on the final portion “illegal and unethical”. The neutral prefix “Note that this is” acts as a trigger: when the model deems its own generation harmful, it tends to assign higher likelihood to generate “illegal and unethical”; conversely, if the content is benign, the disclaimer appears incoherent or out of place, resulting in higher loss. Formally, let ℳ \mathcal{M} denote an auto-regressive language model that maps an input prompt x ∈ 𝒳 x\in\mathcal{X} to a response y ∈ 𝒴 y\in\mathcal{Y} . During auto-regressive decoding, the model generates y = ( y 1 , y 2 , … , y T ) y=(y_{1},y_{2},\ldots,y_{T}) token by token, where each token is drawn from the conditional distribution: P ℳ ​ ( y t ∣ x , y < t ) P_{\mathcal{M}}(y_{t}\mid x,y_{<t}) (1) We denote the formatted dialogue as z = T ​ ( x , y ) z=T(x,y) , where T T represents the chat template (e.g., “USER: … ASSISTANT: …”). To probe the model’s latent safety-awareness, we define a virtual disclaimer d d (“Note that this is illegal and unethical”) and append it to the response, yielding z + = z + d z^{+}=z+d . We are particularly interested in the loss signal computed at a key subsequence of the disclaimer. Let s s denote triggering prefix “Note that this is” and d c ​ o ​ r ​ e ⊂ d d_{core}\subset d denote a semantically rich and morally explicit segment of the disclaimer (e.g., “illegal and unethical”). We compute the model’s average negative log-likelihood over d c ​ o ​ r ​ e d_{core} : ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c ( x , y ) = − 1 | d c ​ o ​ r ​ e | × ∑ i = 1 | d c ​ o ​ r ​ e | log ⁡ P ℳ ​ ( d c ​ o ​ r ​ e ( i ) ∣ ( z + s ) , d c ​ o ​ r ​ e ( < i ) ) \mathcal{L}_{disc}(x,y)=-\frac{1}{|d_{core}|}\times\\ \sum_{i=1}^{|d_{core}|}\log P_{\mathcal{M}}\big(d_{core}^{(i)}\mid(z+s),d_{core}^{(<i)}\big) (2) We systematically analyzed the density distributions of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c ​ ( x , y ) \mathcal{L}_{disc}(x,y) for both benign and harmful samples using original Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct Yang et al. ( 2024 ) . “last-check” refers to the computation of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} after generating the complete response, while “in-decoding” indicates the minimum ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} during the decoding process. As shown in Figure 3 , under the last-check setting, the loss distributions of harmful and benign samples show overlap. In contrast, this overlap is greatly reduced when using in-decoding strategy, resulting in much clearer separation. This suggests that our probing method provides strong signals of harmfulness. More results are reported in the Appendix B.2 . Figure 3: Density distributions of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} on the original Qwen on benign and harmful samples. The overlap is reduced by our in-decoding probing strategy. 3.3 Enhancing Safety-Awareness While LLMs exhibit a certain level of intrinsic safety-awareness, the loss distributions of harmful and benign samples still exhibit overlap, making it difficult to establish a clear decision boundary. To address this, we apply lightweight fine-tuning with limited data to enlarge the distributional gap and improve separability. Concretely, we use a small portion of the SafeRLHF dataset Dai et al. ( 2024 ) , where each instance is annotated with a binary label l i ∈ { 0 , 1 } l_{i}\in\{0,1\} , indicating whether the model-generated response y i y_{i} is harmful (1) or harmless (0). Unlike the inference time probing in which loss is computed only on the core ethical clause d c ​ o ​ r ​ e d_{core} , we expand the scope during training and compute loss over the full appended disclaimer string d d . This yields the training time disclaimer loss: ℒ f ​ u ​ l ​ l ​ ( x , y ) = − 1 | d | ​ ∑ i = 1 | d | log ⁡ P ℳ ​ ( d ( i ) ∣ z , d ( < i ) ) \mathcal{L}_{full}(x,y)=-\frac{1}{|d|}\sum_{i=1}^{|d|}\log P_{\mathcal{M}}(d^{(i)}\mid z,d^{(<i)}) (3) To transform this raw loss into a more interpretable and bounded quantity, we pass it through a smooth mapping function: f ​ ( ℒ f ​ u ​ l ​ l ​ ( x , y ) ) = 2 1 + e β ⋅ ℒ f ​ u ​ l ​ l ​ ( x , y ) f(\mathcal{L}_{full}(x,y))=\frac{2}{1+e^{\beta\cdot\mathcal{L}_{full}(x,y)}} (4) This function maps large loss values (indicating model disagreement with the disclaimer) toward 0 and small loss values (indicating agreement) toward 1. The parameter β > 0 \beta>0 is a tunable hyperparameter that controls the sharpness of the mapping. This mapping function attenuates the gradient when the loss is already sufficiently high, reducing over-correction on samples that are clearly benign. We then optimize a simple MSE objective: ℒ t ​ r ​ a ​ i ​ n = 1 N ​ ∑ i = 1 N ( f ​ ( ℒ f ​ u ​ l ​ l ​ ( x i , y i ) ) − l i ) 2 \mathcal{L}_{train}=\frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N}(f(\mathcal{L}_{full}(x_{i},y_{i}))-l_{i})^{2} (5) To stabilize the training process, we incorporate a small proportion of standard instruction-following samples from UltraFeedback Cui et al. ( 2023 ) into each training batch as a regularization signal. For these normal prompt–response pairs without appended disclaimers, we apply the conventional next-token cross-entropy objective used in supervised instruction tuning, denoted as ℒ r \mathcal{L}_{r} . The final training objective is a weighted combination of the disclaimer-based loss and the instruction-following regularization term: ℒ t ​ o ​ t ​ a ​ l = ℒ t ​ r ​ a ​ i ​ n + λ ⋅ ℒ r \mathcal{L}_{total}=\mathcal{L}_{train}+\lambda\cdot\mathcal{L}_{r} (6) where λ \lambda is a coefficient. The regularization is introduced to prevent overfitting and encourage gradual adjustment of the model’s assessment of harmfulness, allowing safety-awareness signals to be naturally amplified. We denote the resulting model with enhanced latent safety-awareness as ℳ ′ \mathcal{M}^{\prime} . Figure 4: An illustration of performing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} at different decoding steps under ReNeLLM attack. 3.4 In-Decoding Probing Our starting point is the observation that LLMs exhibit latent safety awareness during decoding, which is often overridden by the objective of generating coherent text. Rather than performing binary classification after generation, we aim to probe this real-time awareness as harmful content emerges. As illustrated in Figure 4 , probing at the exact moment harmful content is generated yields optimal performance. Moreover, Table 4 shows that probing during decoding is substantially more effective than probing only after full completion. To this end, we randomly sample 20% of decoding steps as checkpoints. At each sampled step t ∈ 𝒯 s ​ a ​ m ​ p ​ l ​ e ​ d t\in\mathcal{T}_{sampled} , we compute the loss ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ) on the current prefix T ​ ( x , y 1 : t ) T(x,y_{1:t}) using the safety-enhanced model ℳ ′ \mathcal{M}^{{}^{\prime}} . Meanwhile, the response is generated normally by the base model ℳ \mathcal{M} , ensuring that response quality and fluency are maximally preserved. If the loss at any checkpoint falls below a predefined threshold τ \tau , generation is immediately halted and a fixed refusal message is returned; otherwise, decoding proceeds with the original decoding parameters. In practical deployments, hard refusal can be improved with lightweight post-processing strategies.

AutoDAN-T denotes AutoDAN-Turbo. Partial harmfulness scores evaluated by GPT-Judge Qi et al. ( 2024 ) are reported in the Appendix B.5 . 4 Experiments 4.1 Experimental Setup Models. We conduct main experiments on two widely used open-source LLMs: Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct Yang et al. ( 2024 ) and Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3 MistralAI ( 2024 ) . Qwen is a model with strong safety alignment, whereas Mistral is characterized by weak safety alignment. The experimental results indicate that our method does not rely on the intensity of safety alignment in models. More experimental results on Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct Grattafiori et al. ( 2024 ) , Qwen3-8B Yang et al. ( 2025 ) and GLM-4-9b-chat GLM et al. ( 2024 ) are provided in the Appendix B.1 . Attack Methods. The attack methods we use include AutoDAN Liu et al. ( 2024b ) , PAIR Chao et al. ( 2025 ) , IFSJ Zheng et al. ( 2024b ) , ReNeLLM Ding et al. ( 2024 ) , REDA Zheng et al. ( 2025 ) , DRA Liu et al. ( 2024a ) , AutoDAN-Turbo Liu et al. ( 2025 ) . All jailbreak prompts are constructed by applying each attack method to the full set of 520 samples from AdvBench Zou et al. ( 2023 ) . In addition, all methods are evaluated on AdvBench Zou et al. ( 2023 ) and HEx-PHI Qi et al. ( 2024 ) . Detailed attack settings can be found in the Appendix A.1 . Baselines. We evaluate several defense methods across two main categories. Mitigation-based methods: SafeDecoding Xu et al. ( 2024 ) , ICD Wei et al. ( 2023 ) , SmoothLLM Robey et al. ( 2025 ) , and DRO Zheng et al. ( 2024a ) . Mitigation-based methods aim to reduce the likelihood of the model generating harmful content. However, they may also lead to a decrease in the quality of model responses. Therefore, in addition to assessing their defense performance, we also examine the helpfulness of these methods. Detection-based methods: Backtranslation Wang et al. ( 2024 ) , RobustAligned Cao et al. ( 2024 ) , and SelfEval Phute et al. ( 2024 ) . Detection-based methods detect harmful content and typically return a fixed refusal string. As a result, these methods do not typically affect the quality of the model’s responses but may lead to over-refusals on benign requests. In addition to evaluating their defense performance, we also focus on the over-refusal rate for these methods. Detailed defense settings are in the Appendix A.2 . SafeProbing Settings. We use a small subset of SafeRLHF Dai et al. ( 2024 ) and UltraFeedback Cui et al. ( 2023 ) as the training set. We set λ = 0.05 \lambda=0.05 and fixed τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 when tuning β \beta , as this value separates benign and harmful samples (Figure 3 ). After training, the overlap between the two distributions decreases and the gap widens. To select β \beta , we constructed a validation set in the same way as the training set. Based on the results, we set β = 0.5 \beta=0.5 for Qwen and β = 0.7 \beta=0.7 for Mistral. Training was implemented with LoRA Hu et al. ( 2022 ) on a single NVIDIA A6000 GPU. Detailed dataset construction and experimental results related to β \beta selection are provided in the Appendix A.3 . Metrics. We report the Defense Success Rate (DSR) , defined as the percentage of harmful prompts for which the model produces safe outputs. To determine whether a response is harmful, we adopt LlamaGuard-3-8B Inan et al. ( 2023 ) , which provides a substantially more precise reference than traditional dictionary-based harmfulness filters. Partial harmfulness scores evaluated by GPT-Judge Qi et al. ( 2024 ) which evaluates the harmfulness of responses on a scale of 1 to 5, are reported in the Appendix B.5 . To evaluate the quality of model-generated responses under various defense strategies, we first assess mathematical ability on the GSM dataset Cobbe et al. ( 2021 ) . Additionally, the JustEval Lin et al. ( 2023 ) benchmark is adopted, which comprises 800 diverse instructions spanning multiple domains. Target models are prompted with these instructions under different defense methods. Response quality is evaluated using GPT-4.1 as an automated judge. We assess the frequency of Over-Refusal when models encounter benign prompts from the XSTest Röttger et al. ( 2024 ) , which are safe but include sensitive content, such as “What’s the best way of stealing a car in GTA 4?”, “What’s a plot for a murder in my novel?”. For detection-based defense strategies, over-refusal is counted when the model refuses to respond directly. 4.2 Experimental Results SafeProbing Improves Safety Against Jailbreak Attacks. Table 1 shows the performance of various defense methods against a range of jailbreak attacks. For straightforward harmful prompts such as AdvBench and HEx-PHI, most defense methods achieve high DSR. However, when faced with more complex and highly deceptive jailbreak attacks, the effectiveness of several strategies drops noticeably. In contrast, SafeProbing shows robust defense performance. By evaluating SafeProbing under multiple jailbreak attack strategies, we verify both its effectiveness and generalization ability. SafeProbing Reduces Over-Refusal Rate. Figure 5 shows the over-refusal counts on benign samples from the XSTest dataset under detection-based defense methods. SafeProbing exhibits a lower rate of over-refusal. Additionally, as shown in Table 3 , even without additional training and using a fixed threshold τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 , SafeProbing demonstrates a higher DSR and lower Over-Refusal rate compared to the evaluated baselines. Figure 5: Over-refusal counts on benign samples from the XSTest dataset under detection-based defense. General Capabilities Are Well Preserved. We additionally evaluate general capabilities since mitigation-based methods do not directly refuse user requests. As Table 2 illustrated, SafeProbing exhibits nearly no performance degradation. Notably, SafeProbing consistently preserves general capabilities better than other mitigation-based and detection-based defenses, with results close to the original models across all metrics. Overall, our results show that the performance of the original models is effectively preserved. Therefore, SafeProbing achieves a better balance between utility preservation and defense performance.

A fixed threshold (e.g., τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 ) yields better DSR and lower over-refusals than baseline methods. Safety-awareness-enhanced training further improves performance, with consistent generalization across diverse attack strategies. 4.3 Ablation Analysis Impact of the safety-enhanced training and the threshold τ \tau . As shown in Table 3 , by setting a fixed threshold value ( τ \tau ), such as 2.0, original models are able to effectively distinguish harmful outputs, even in under-aligned models like Mistral. By safety-awareness enhanced training, we observe an improvement in DSR, along with a reduction in over-refusal. Additional results on Llama3.1, Qwen3 and GLM4 are reported in Appendix B.1 . Impact of ratio. We next analyze the impact of the in-decoding ratio that controls the proportion of decoding steps involved in computing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ). As illustrated in Table 4 , computing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} only on the final output (denoted as ratio=0) leads to limited improvement in DSR. In contrast, incorporating the in-decoding strategy leads to a substantial performance gain. To better explore the capability of SafeProbing, we adopt a ratio of 0.2 in our main experiments. However, Table 4 shows that even a small ratio of 0.05 is sufficient to achieve strong detection performance, with acceptable additional computational cost. Detailed time overhead experiment is provided in Appendix B.4 . Impact of d c ​ o ​ r ​ e d_{core} . We examine the impact of applying different semantic clauses when calculating ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ). As shown in Table 5 , since a lower value implies a stronger tendency for the model to generate the disclaimer, the clause “illegal and unethical” exhibits the strongest detection performance among all evaluated disclaimer clauses.

We utilize the original models LLaVA Liu et al. ( 2023a ) , Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct Bai et al. ( 2025 ) , and GLM-4V-9b Wang et al. ( 2023 ) , and evaluate their harmful and benign outputs under multimodal jailbreak attacks: MM-SafetyBench Liu et al. ( 2024c ) , FigStep Gong et al. ( 2025 ) and HADES Li et al. ( 2024 ) . By analyzing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ) in response to these attacks, we observe that SafeProbing effectively distinguishes between benign and harmful outputs even in the context of visual inputs. This demonstrates the transferability of SafeProbing to the visual modality. Detailed experimental results are presented in Appendix B.3 . 5 Conclusion In this work, we systematically explore the safety-awareness exhibited by LLMs and demonstrate how their awareness can be harnessed for effective in-decoding detection and defense against jailbreak attacks. By leveraging token-level loss as a real-time indicator, our method enables timely intervention and substantially improves model safety without sacrificing response quality. Extensive empirical results across diverse attack strategies and benchmarks confirm the robustness, efficiency, and generalizability of our approach. Limitations Our current implementation adopts a conservative intervention strategy, in which a fixed refusal response is returned once harmful content is detected. This design choice is intended to isolate and emphasize the detection capability of SafeProbing, rather than to optimize user facing response generation or overall user experience. We defer the investigation of more flexible and adaptive response strategies, including partial redaction, guided rephrasing, and safety aware continuation, to future work. Ethical Considerations We firmly oppose all forms of unethical or criminal behavior. The potentially harmful content in this paper, including prompts and model outputs, is presented solely for academic research and does not reflect the authors’ views or positions. We emphasize that the models we study are used in a controlled research setting. Additionally, we recognize the importance of safety and accountability when developing AI systems in real-world scenarios. References G. Alon and M.

Appendix A Detailed Settings A.1 Jailbreak Attacks Settings For AutoDAN Liu et al. ( 2024b ) , ReNeLLM Ding et al. ( 2024 ) , REDA Zheng et al. ( 2025 ) , and DRA Liu et al. ( 2024a ) , we directly run the official implementations to generate jailbreak prompts or use the released prompts when available. For IFSJ Zheng et al. ( 2024b ) , we adopt <|im_end|>\n<|im_start|>assistant\n as the special token for Qwen, and [/INST] for Mistral. For PAIR Chao et al. ( 2025 ) , we use deepseek-chat DeepSeek-AI ( 2024 ) as the attacker model, Vicuna Chiang et al. ( 2023 ) as the target model, as Vicuna is more susceptible to jailbreak attacks, which reduces the number of iterations required for attack , and Llama-Guard-3-8B Inan et al. ( 2023 ) as the judge. For AutoDAN-Turbo, we run the official code with Qwen2.5 serving as the attacker, summarizer, scorer and target to construct the attack strategy library, and subsequently generate jailbreak prompts using Qwen2.5 as the attacker, scorer, and the corresponding target model. To reduce computational cost, the number of epochs is set to 20.

For the untrained SafeProbing setting, we use a fixed threshold of τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 as a reference for comparison. A.2 Baseline Settings • No Defense. We begin by submitting the constructed prompts to the target models and collecting their original responses as the baseline results. In this setting, no defense methods are applied, allowing us to evaluate the model’s behavior and vulnerability to harmful prompts in the absence of any protection. • Backtranslation Wang et al. ( 2024 ) . We implement this baseline using the official code as the foundation. Both the generation of the backtranslation prompt and the final response are performed using the same target model. • SafeDecoding Xu et al. ( 2024 ) . For experiments with the SafeDecoding defense method, we closely follow the implementation details provided in the official repository. Since no pre-trained expert LoRA adapter is provided by the official repository for Qwen and Mistral. Therefore, we train LoRA adapters using the training scripts supplied by SafeDecoding, and employ this adapter for subsequent experiments. All decoding parameters are set to the default values specified in the official codebase. • DRO Zheng et al. ( 2024a ) . We use the official implementation to train soft prompts on the provided dataset. The resulting soft prompts are then directly applied to Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3 and Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct for evaluation. • ICD, RobustAligned, SmoothLLM, SelfEval. We conduct experiments for these four baseline methods using the code provided by Zhang et al. ( 2025b ) . A.3 SafeProbing Settings Details of our datasets. We select 600 samples from SafeRLHF Dai et al. ( 2024 ) to serve as the primary training set. We incorporated an additional 200 benign prompt-response pairs from UltraFeedback, labeled as harmless, along with 100 prompt-rejection pairs as harmless data into the training set. Moreover, we use 100 samples from UltraFeedback for use as ℒ r \mathcal{L}_{r} . The validation set is constructed using the same method as the training set. The constructed training dataset is made publicly available in our released code. Training Settings. To fine-tune the original model using LoRA Hu et al. ( 2022 ) , we use Trainer in transformers packages. The default parameters are shown in Table 7 . Hyper-parameter Default Value Lora Alpha 32 Lora Rank 8 Target Modules q_proj, k_proj, v_proj, o_proj Train Batch Size 16 Train Epochs 2 Learning Rate 5e-5 Max Sequence Length 256 Table 7: Training Settings Hyperparameter Settings. both β \beta and the threshold τ \tau are treated as tunable hyperparameters. We fix τ \tau to 2.0 and search for the optimal value of β \beta based on validation dataset. Our selection criterion is to maximize the identification of harmful responses while maintaining a low over-refusal rate. Detailed experimental results are presented in Table 11 . In our evaluation, the over-refusal is defined as the number of benign samples in the validation set that are incorrectly identified as harmful. The accuracy (acc) refers to the proportion of harmful samples in the validation set that are correctly identified as harmful (last-check ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} ). We prioritize ensuring low over-refusal. Based on the results presented in Table 11 , we set the optimal value of β \beta to 0.5 for Qwen2.5 and Qwen3, 0.4 for Llama, 0.7 for Mistral and GLM. Figure 6: The figure presents the density distributions of both original and Safety-Awareness Enhanced ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} on both benign and harmful samples. The overlap is reduced through our in-decoding probing strategy. This suggests that our probing method provides strong signals of harmfulness.

Appendix B More Results B.1 SafeProbing in More Models In this subsection, we report additional results of SafeProbing on the MaliciousInstruct benchmark Huang et al. ( 2023 ) for more models, including Qwen3 and GLM4. We choose MaliciousInstruct due to its smaller dataset size which allows for reduced computational cost which facilitates faster reproducibility and to further verify that SafeProbing is effective beyond AdvBench. For the untrained SafeProbing setting, we adopt a fixed threshold of τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 as a reference for comparison. As shown in Table 6 , SafeProbing achieves strong defense success rates and lower over-refusals across multiple models. B.2 Distribution of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} In this subsection, we analyze the distribution of the in-decoding loss ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} using UltraFeedback as benign data and harmful outputs generated by AutoDAN, DRA and AutoDAN-Turbo as harmful data, all evaluated with original models and safety-awareness enhanced models. As illustrated in Figure 6 , probing only after the full response is generated leads to substantial overlap between benign and harmful samples. In contrast, the in-decoding strategy significantly reduces this overlap, enabling effective discrimination between benign and malicious outputs based on our in-decoding signals. Therefore, SafeProbing exhibits better performance as a defense method. B.3 SafeProbing under Visual Input In this section, we explore the effectiveness of SafeProbing on large visual models. We utilize the vanilla models LLaVA Liu et al. ( 2023a ) , Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct Bai et al. ( 2025 ) , and GLM-4V-9b Wang et al. ( 2023 ) , and evaluate their harmful and benign outputs under multimodal jailbreak attacks: MM-SafetyBench Liu et al. ( 2024c ) HADES Li et al. ( 2024 ) and FigStep Gong et al. ( 2025 ) . By examining the models’ ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} in reaction to these attacks, we find that SafeProbing differentiates between benign and harmful outputs, even when dealing with visual inputs, as shown in Table 8 . This highlights the ability of SafeProbing to transfer across the visual modality. B.4 Time Cost We evaluate the time efficiency of several detection-based methods on the JustEval dataset (Table 9 ), reporting both the per-sample latency overhead and the slowdown relative to the no-defense baseline on Qwen. Our method incurs lower additional overhead than existing detection-based. While the main experiments use ratio = 0.2, Table 4 shows that SafeProbing remains effective at ratio = 0.05 with negligible computational cost. B.5 GPT-Judge In the main experiments, we use the classification results from LlamaGuard, which provides a substantially more precise reference than traditional dictionary-based harmfulness filters, as the reference. In this part, we further adopt GPT-Judge Qi et al. ( 2024 ) to provide more fine-grained harmfulness scores (Table 10 ). Due to cost considerations, these experiments are conducted only on a subset of results obtained with Qwen.

Appendix C Example Demonstrations In this section, we present several representative cases to illustrate the performance of our defense method under different scenarios. Specifically, we showcase examples where our approach successfully detects harmful content, as well as cases on benign data where it avoids triggering over-refusal. Additionally, we include selected failure cases from the XSTest benchmark in which the model exhibits over-refusal on harmless inputs. These qualitative results provide further insight into the practical strengths and limitations of our method beyond quantitative metrics. We select two representative adversarial prompts from both AutoDAN-Turbo and ReNeLLM and calculate ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} at several key decoding steps. For illustration, we present the model’s full response, but in practice, if ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} drops below the threshold τ \tau at any position, the model immediately returns a fixed refusal string.

Abstract Large language models (LLMs) have achieved impressive performance across natural language tasks and are increasingly deployed in real-world applications. Despite extensive safety alignment efforts, recent studies show that such alignment is often shallow and remains vulnerable to jailbreak attacks. Existing defense mechanisms, including decoding-based constraints and post-hoc content detectors, struggle against sophisticated jailbreaks, often intervening robust detection or excessively degrading model utility. In this work, we examine the decoding process of LLMs and make a key observation: even when successfully jailbroken, models internally exhibit latent safety-related signals during generation. However, these signals are overridden by the model’s drive for fluent continuation, preventing timely self-correction or refusal. Building on this observation, we propose a simple yet effective approach that explicitly surfaces and leverages these latent safety signals for early detection of unsafe content during decoding. Experiments across diverse jailbreak attacks demonstrate that our approach significantly enhances safety, while maintaining low over-refusal rates on benign inputs and preserving response quality. Our results suggest that activating intrinsic safety-awareness during decoding offers a promising and complementary direction for defending against jailbreak attacks. Code is available at: .

Large Language Models (LLMs) Brown et al. ( 2020 ); Ouyang et al. ( 2022 ); Touvron et al. ( 2023 ) have demonstrated impressive capabilities across a wide range of complex tasks Zhang et al. ( 2023 ); Kung et al. ( 2023 ); Jiao et al. ( 2023 ) . These applications highlight the tremendous potential of LLMs in the field of natural language processing. However, LLMs are predominantly trained on vast, unfiltered corpora scraped from the Internet, including but not limited to online book repositories, Wikipedia and social media posts, which inevitably contain a substantial amount of low-quality and harmful content. Despite efforts by developers to filter and curate training data, a substantial fraction of undesirable content enters the training process, affecting the reliability and safety of model outputs. This phenomenon has led to concerning behaviors during human interaction Gehman et al. ( 2020 ); Carlini et al. ( 2021 ); McGuffie and Newhouse ( 2020 ) . To mitigate these risks, recent advancements, such as Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) Ouyang et al. ( 2022 ); Qi et al. ( 2025 ) , Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) Christiano et al. ( 2017 ) , and Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) Rafailov et al. ( 2023 ); Zhang et al. ( 2025a ); Maeng et al. ( 2025 ) , have significantly improved the alignment of LLMs with human values and safety requirements. Nevertheless, a recent study has shown that these safety alignment efforts often remain “shallow” Qi et al. ( 2025 ) . Such shallow alignment renders LLMs susceptible to a wide range of jailbreak attacks. These attacks use techniques such as prompt injection, deception, role-play, and adversarial suffixes Chao et al. ( 2025 ); Liu et al. ( 2023b ); Yu et al. ( 2024 ); Zou et al. ( 2023 ); Liu et al. ( 2024b ) to bypass the model’s safety alignment, causing the model to generate harmful content. Empirically, we observe that when LLMs are successfully attacked and generate clearly harmful content, they occasionally append a disclaimer or safety warning afterward as a form of remediation, as illustrated in Figure 1 . This behavior indicates that the model is not entirely unaware of the harmful nature of its output. Instead, it retains a latent sense of safety-awareness throughout the decoding process. However, this awareness is often suppressed because the model prioritizes generating fluent and coherent responses based on the already generated context, which prevents the model from correcting itself, yet leaves room for external intervention mechanisms. Building on these observations, we propose SafeProbing , which uses the model’s intrinsic safety-awareness during decoding to build defense against jailbreak attacks. Our starting point is the observation that LLMs exhibit a certain degree of intrinsic safety-awareness during the decoding process, which can be exploited in real time. Specifically, we add the phrase “Note that this is” to the generated response and measure the model’s probability for continuing with “illegal and unethical”. This neutral prefix acts as a trigger. It bypasses the model’s default objective of continuing to decode harmful content and encourages the model to assign a higher probability to “illegal and unethical” if it recognizes the earlier content as harmful. Our experiments show that this loss-based probing works best when applied immediately after the model generates unsafe content, while the effect becomes much weaker if the check is delayed, as illustrated in Figure 4 . Thus, we use in-decoding sampling of checkpoints. That is, we perform safety probing during the generation process, not just at the end. If harmful content is detected at any checkpoint, we return a fixed refusal string. In practical deployments, this intervention can also be improved with lightweight post-processing strategies beyond hard refusal. Since the distributional difference between harmful and benign samples is limited, we leverage a small amount of training data to enhance the model’s safety-awareness, thereby improving the discrimination ability of SafeProbing. We conduct extensive experiments across multiple jailbreak attack methods and evaluate on both harmful and utility benchmarks, including over-refusal rate and mathematical ability. Compared with several strong baselines, our method achieves superior defense performance while preserving the general utility and response quality of the model to the greatest extent. Above all, our major contributions are as follows: • We observe that LLMs possess a certain degree of safety-awareness during the generation of harmful content, and we devise a probing method to surface and quantify this safety-awareness. • We propose an efficient in-decoding detection mechanism that leverages safety-awareness signals and simple fine-tuning, achieving timely intervention and strong discrimination between benign and harmful content. • Extensive experiments across multiple jailbreak attacks and benchmarks demonstrate that our method offers robust safety improvement and preserves model utility. Figure 2: An overview of our defense. The model is trained to assign higher probability to the phrase “Note that this is illegal and unethical” after harmful content, and lower probability after benign content. During inference, we randomly sample decoding steps, append “Note that this is”, and use the probability of “illegal and unethical” as an indicator of harmfulness. 1 Introduction Large Language Models (LLMs) Brown et al.

( 2025 ) . As suggested by the emergence of safety disclaimers, models internally recognize the harmful nature of their own generations during decoding. We propose SafeProbing, which directly probes these latent safety signals during decoding. An overview of our method is presented in Figure 2 . 3.1 Key Observations and Insights When aligned models are confronted with crafted malicious prompts, their safety alignment mechanisms can fail. Our observations across multiple LLMs reveal that after generating harmful content, these models sometimes append disclaimers, as illustrated in Figure 1 . This pattern suggests that at certain stages of generation, the model can recognize the harmfulness of its response and add a disclaimer as a compensatory measure. Once the model’s safety alignment is bypassed and it begins to generate harmful content, the decoding process prioritizes fluency and contextual consistency over abrupt self-correction. This results in the complete generation of the harmful output. Nevertheless, this behavior does not imply an absence of safety-awareness within the model. Instead, this safety-awareness persists throughout the decoding process but remains latent, suppressed by the drive for coherent generation and thus not outwardly manifested. Accordingly, we devise a probing method in the subsequent section to surface and quantify this latent safety-awareness. 3.2 Probing Safety-Awareness To systematically exploit safety-awareness of the model itself, we devise a probing method: rather than asking the model to explicitly classify its outputs, we test how confused it is about a disclaimer after generating potentially unsafe content. Specifically, for a given response, we append a fixed phrase “Note that this is illegal and unethical”, and compute the model’s token-level loss on the final portion “illegal and unethical”. The neutral prefix “Note that this is” acts as a trigger: when the model deems its own generation harmful, it tends to assign higher likelihood to generate “illegal and unethical”; conversely, if the content is benign, the disclaimer appears incoherent or out of place, resulting in higher loss. Formally, let ℳ \mathcal{M} denote an auto-regressive language model that maps an input prompt x ∈ 𝒳 x\in\mathcal{X} to a response y ∈ 𝒴 y\in\mathcal{Y} . During auto-regressive decoding, the model generates y = ( y 1 , y 2 , … , y T ) y=(y_{1},y_{2},\ldots,y_{T}) token by token, where each token is drawn from the conditional distribution: P ℳ ​ ( y t ∣ x , y < t ) P_{\mathcal{M}}(y_{t}\mid x,y_{<t}) (1) We denote the formatted dialogue as z = T ​ ( x , y ) z=T(x,y) , where T T represents the chat template (e.g., “USER: … ASSISTANT: …”). To probe the model’s latent safety-awareness, we define a virtual disclaimer d d (“Note that this is illegal and unethical”) and append it to the response, yielding z + = z + d z^{+}=z+d . We are particularly interested in the loss signal computed at a key subsequence of the disclaimer. Let s s denote triggering prefix “Note that this is” and d c ​ o ​ r ​ e ⊂ d d_{core}\subset d denote a semantically rich and morally explicit segment of the disclaimer (e.g., “illegal and unethical”). We compute the model’s average negative log-likelihood over d c ​ o ​ r ​ e d_{core} : ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c ( x , y ) = − 1 | d c ​ o ​ r ​ e | × ∑ i = 1 | d c ​ o ​ r ​ e | log ⁡ P ℳ ​ ( d c ​ o ​ r ​ e ( i ) ∣ ( z + s ) , d c ​ o ​ r ​ e ( < i ) ) \mathcal{L}_{disc}(x,y)=-\frac{1}{|d_{core}|}\times\\ \sum_{i=1}^{|d_{core}|}\log P_{\mathcal{M}}\big(d_{core}^{(i)}\mid(z+s),d_{core}^{(<i)}\big) (2) We systematically analyzed the density distributions of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c ​ ( x , y ) \mathcal{L}_{disc}(x,y) for both benign and harmful samples using original Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct Yang et al. ( 2024 ) . “last-check” refers to the computation of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} after generating the complete response, while “in-decoding” indicates the minimum ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} during the decoding process. As shown in Figure 3 , under the last-check setting, the loss distributions of harmful and benign samples show overlap. In contrast, this overlap is greatly reduced when using in-decoding strategy, resulting in much clearer separation. This suggests that our probing method provides strong signals of harmfulness. More results are reported in the Appendix B.2 . Figure 3: Density distributions of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} on the original Qwen on benign and harmful samples. The overlap is reduced by our in-decoding probing strategy. 3.3 Enhancing Safety-Awareness While LLMs exhibit a certain level of intrinsic safety-awareness, the loss distributions of harmful and benign samples still exhibit overlap, making it difficult to establish a clear decision boundary. To address this, we apply lightweight fine-tuning with limited data to enlarge the distributional gap and improve separability. Concretely, we use a small portion of the SafeRLHF dataset Dai et al. ( 2024 ) , where each instance is annotated with a binary label l i ∈ { 0 , 1 } l_{i}\in\{0,1\} , indicating whether the model-generated response y i y_{i} is harmful (1) or harmless (0). Unlike the inference time probing in which loss is computed only on the core ethical clause d c ​ o ​ r ​ e d_{core} , we expand the scope during training and compute loss over the full appended disclaimer string d d . This yields the training time disclaimer loss: ℒ f ​ u ​ l ​ l ​ ( x , y ) = − 1 | d | ​ ∑ i = 1 | d | log ⁡ P ℳ ​ ( d ( i ) ∣ z , d ( < i ) ) \mathcal{L}_{full}(x,y)=-\frac{1}{|d|}\sum_{i=1}^{|d|}\log P_{\mathcal{M}}(d^{(i)}\mid z,d^{(<i)}) (3) To transform this raw loss into a more interpretable and bounded quantity, we pass it through a smooth mapping function: f ​ ( ℒ f ​ u ​ l ​ l ​ ( x , y ) ) = 2 1 + e β ⋅ ℒ f ​ u ​ l ​ l ​ ( x , y ) f(\mathcal{L}_{full}(x,y))=\frac{2}{1+e^{\beta\cdot\mathcal{L}_{full}(x,y)}} (4) This function maps large loss values (indicating model disagreement with the disclaimer) toward 0 and small loss values (indicating agreement) toward 1. The parameter β > 0 \beta>0 is a tunable hyperparameter that controls the sharpness of the mapping. This mapping function attenuates the gradient when the loss is already sufficiently high, reducing over-correction on samples that are clearly benign. We then optimize a simple MSE objective: ℒ t ​ r ​ a ​ i ​ n = 1 N ​ ∑ i = 1 N ( f ​ ( ℒ f ​ u ​ l ​ l ​ ( x i , y i ) ) − l i ) 2 \mathcal{L}_{train}=\frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N}(f(\mathcal{L}_{full}(x_{i},y_{i}))-l_{i})^{2} (5) To stabilize the training process, we incorporate a small proportion of standard instruction-following samples from UltraFeedback Cui et al. ( 2023 ) into each training batch as a regularization signal. For these normal prompt–response pairs without appended disclaimers, we apply the conventional next-token cross-entropy objective used in supervised instruction tuning, denoted as ℒ r \mathcal{L}_{r} . The final training objective is a weighted combination of the disclaimer-based loss and the instruction-following regularization term: ℒ t ​ o ​ t ​ a ​ l = ℒ t ​ r ​ a ​ i ​ n + λ ⋅ ℒ r \mathcal{L}_{total}=\mathcal{L}_{train}+\lambda\cdot\mathcal{L}_{r} (6) where λ \lambda is a coefficient. The regularization is introduced to prevent overfitting and encourage gradual adjustment of the model’s assessment of harmfulness, allowing safety-awareness signals to be naturally amplified. We denote the resulting model with enhanced latent safety-awareness as ℳ ′ \mathcal{M}^{\prime} . Figure 4: An illustration of performing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} at different decoding steps under ReNeLLM attack. 3.4 In-Decoding Probing Our starting point is the observation that LLMs exhibit latent safety awareness during decoding, which is often overridden by the objective of generating coherent text. Rather than performing binary classification after generation, we aim to probe this real-time awareness as harmful content emerges. As illustrated in Figure 4 , probing at the exact moment harmful content is generated yields optimal performance. Moreover, Table 4 shows that probing during decoding is substantially more effective than probing only after full completion. To this end, we randomly sample 20% of decoding steps as checkpoints. At each sampled step t ∈ 𝒯 s ​ a ​ m ​ p ​ l ​ e ​ d t\in\mathcal{T}_{sampled} , we compute the loss ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ) on the current prefix T ​ ( x , y 1 : t ) T(x,y_{1:t}) using the safety-enhanced model ℳ ′ \mathcal{M}^{{}^{\prime}} . Meanwhile, the response is generated normally by the base model ℳ \mathcal{M} , ensuring that response quality and fluency are maximally preserved. If the loss at any checkpoint falls below a predefined threshold τ \tau , generation is immediately halted and a fixed refusal message is returned; otherwise, decoding proceeds with the original decoding parameters. In practical deployments, hard refusal can be improved with lightweight post-processing strategies.

AutoDAN-T denotes AutoDAN-Turbo. Partial harmfulness scores evaluated by GPT-Judge Qi et al. ( 2024 ) are reported in the Appendix B.5 . 3 Methodology Despite extensive safety alignment efforts, LLMs remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks Qi et al. ( 2025 ) . As suggested by the emergence of safety disclaimers, models internally recognize the harmful nature of their own generations during decoding. We propose SafeProbing, which directly probes these latent safety signals during decoding. An overview of our method is presented in Figure 2 . 3.1 Key Observations and Insights When aligned models are confronted with crafted malicious prompts, their safety alignment mechanisms can fail. Our observations across multiple LLMs reveal that after generating harmful content, these models sometimes append disclaimers, as illustrated in Figure 1 . This pattern suggests that at certain stages of generation, the model can recognize the harmfulness of its response and add a disclaimer as a compensatory measure. Once the model’s safety alignment is bypassed and it begins to generate harmful content, the decoding process prioritizes fluency and contextual consistency over abrupt self-correction. This results in the complete generation of the harmful output. Nevertheless, this behavior does not imply an absence of safety-awareness within the model. Instead, this safety-awareness persists throughout the decoding process but remains latent, suppressed by the drive for coherent generation and thus not outwardly manifested. Accordingly, we devise a probing method in the subsequent section to surface and quantify this latent safety-awareness. 3.1 Key Observations and Insights When aligned models are confronted with crafted malicious prompts, their safety alignment mechanisms can fail.

Accordingly, we devise a probing method in the subsequent section to surface and quantify this latent safety-awareness. 3.2 Probing Safety-Awareness To systematically exploit safety-awareness of the model itself, we devise a probing method: rather than asking the model to explicitly classify its outputs, we test how confused it is about a disclaimer after generating potentially unsafe content. Specifically, for a given response, we append a fixed phrase “Note that this is illegal and unethical”, and compute the model’s token-level loss on the final portion “illegal and unethical”. The neutral prefix “Note that this is” acts as a trigger: when the model deems its own generation harmful, it tends to assign higher likelihood to generate “illegal and unethical”; conversely, if the content is benign, the disclaimer appears incoherent or out of place, resulting in higher loss. Formally, let ℳ \mathcal{M} denote an auto-regressive language model that maps an input prompt x ∈ 𝒳 x\in\mathcal{X} to a response y ∈ 𝒴 y\in\mathcal{Y} . During auto-regressive decoding, the model generates y = ( y 1 , y 2 , … , y T ) y=(y_{1},y_{2},\ldots,y_{T}) token by token, where each token is drawn from the conditional distribution: P ℳ ​ ( y t ∣ x , y < t ) P_{\mathcal{M}}(y_{t}\mid x,y_{<t}) (1) We denote the formatted dialogue as z = T ​ ( x , y ) z=T(x,y) , where T T represents the chat template (e.g., “USER: … ASSISTANT: …”). To probe the model’s latent safety-awareness, we define a virtual disclaimer d d (“Note that this is illegal and unethical”) and append it to the response, yielding z + = z + d z^{+}=z+d . We are particularly interested in the loss signal computed at a key subsequence of the disclaimer. Let s s denote triggering prefix “Note that this is” and d c ​ o ​ r ​ e ⊂ d d_{core}\subset d denote a semantically rich and morally explicit segment of the disclaimer (e.g., “illegal and unethical”). We compute the model’s average negative log-likelihood over d c ​ o ​ r ​ e d_{core} : ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c ( x , y ) = − 1 | d c ​ o ​ r ​ e | × ∑ i = 1 | d c ​ o ​ r ​ e | log ⁡ P ℳ ​ ( d c ​ o ​ r ​ e ( i ) ∣ ( z + s ) , d c ​ o ​ r ​ e ( < i ) ) \mathcal{L}_{disc}(x,y)=-\frac{1}{|d_{core}|}\times\\ \sum_{i=1}^{|d_{core}|}\log P_{\mathcal{M}}\big(d_{core}^{(i)}\mid(z+s),d_{core}^{(<i)}\big) (2) We systematically analyzed the density distributions of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c ​ ( x , y ) \mathcal{L}_{disc}(x,y) for both benign and harmful samples using original Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct Yang et al. ( 2024 ) . “last-check” refers to the computation of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} after generating the complete response, while “in-decoding” indicates the minimum ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} during the decoding process. As shown in Figure 3 , under the last-check setting, the loss distributions of harmful and benign samples show overlap. In contrast, this overlap is greatly reduced when using in-decoding strategy, resulting in much clearer separation. This suggests that our probing method provides strong signals of harmfulness. More results are reported in the Appendix B.2 . Figure 3: Density distributions of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} on the original Qwen on benign and harmful samples.

The parameter β > 0 \beta>0 is a tunable hyperparameter that controls the sharpness of the mapping. This mapping function attenuates the gradient when the loss is already sufficiently high, reducing over-correction on samples that are clearly benign. We then optimize a simple MSE objective: ℒ t ​ r ​ a ​ i ​ n = 1 N ​ ∑ i = 1 N ( f ​ ( ℒ f ​ u ​ l ​ l ​ ( x i , y i ) ) − l i ) 2 \mathcal{L}_{train}=\frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N}(f(\mathcal{L}_{full}(x_{i},y_{i}))-l_{i})^{2} (5) To stabilize the training process, we incorporate a small proportion of standard instruction-following samples from UltraFeedback Cui et al.

We conduct main experiments on two widely used open-source LLMs: Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct Yang et al. ( 2024 ) and Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3 MistralAI ( 2024 ) . Qwen is a model with strong safety alignment, whereas Mistral is characterized by weak safety alignment. The experimental results indicate that our method does not rely on the intensity of safety alignment in models. More experimental results on Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct Grattafiori et al. ( 2024 ) , Qwen3-8B Yang et al. ( 2025 ) and GLM-4-9b-chat GLM et al. ( 2024 ) are provided in the Appendix B.1 . Attack Methods. The attack methods we use include AutoDAN Liu et al. ( 2024b ) , PAIR Chao et al. ( 2025 ) , IFSJ Zheng et al. ( 2024b ) , ReNeLLM Ding et al. ( 2024 ) , REDA Zheng et al. ( 2025 ) , DRA Liu et al. ( 2024a ) , AutoDAN-Turbo Liu et al. ( 2025 ) . All jailbreak prompts are constructed by applying each attack method to the full set of 520 samples from AdvBench Zou et al. ( 2023 ) . In addition, all methods are evaluated on AdvBench Zou et al. ( 2023 ) and HEx-PHI Qi et al. ( 2024 ) . Detailed attack settings can be found in the Appendix A.1 . Baselines. We evaluate several defense methods across two main categories. Mitigation-based methods: SafeDecoding Xu et al. ( 2024 ) , ICD Wei et al. ( 2023 ) , SmoothLLM Robey et al. ( 2025 ) , and DRO Zheng et al. ( 2024a ) . Mitigation-based methods aim to reduce the likelihood of the model generating harmful content. However, they may also lead to a decrease in the quality of model responses. Therefore, in addition to assessing their defense performance, we also examine the helpfulness of these methods. Detection-based methods: Backtranslation Wang et al. ( 2024 ) , RobustAligned Cao et al. ( 2024 ) , and SelfEval Phute et al. ( 2024 ) . Detection-based methods detect harmful content and typically return a fixed refusal string. As a result, these methods do not typically affect the quality of the model’s responses but may lead to over-refusals on benign requests. In addition to evaluating their defense performance, we also focus on the over-refusal rate for these methods. Detailed defense settings are in the Appendix A.2 . SafeProbing Settings. We use a small subset of SafeRLHF Dai et al. ( 2024 ) and UltraFeedback Cui et al. ( 2023 ) as the training set. We set λ = 0.05 \lambda=0.05 and fixed τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 when tuning β \beta , as this value separates benign and harmful samples (Figure 3 ). After training, the overlap between the two distributions decreases and the gap widens. To select β \beta , we constructed a validation set in the same way as the training set. Based on the results, we set β = 0.5 \beta=0.5 for Qwen and β = 0.7 \beta=0.7 for Mistral. Training was implemented with LoRA Hu et al. ( 2022 ) on a single NVIDIA A6000 GPU. Detailed dataset construction and experimental results related to β \beta selection are provided in the Appendix A.3 . Metrics. We report the Defense Success Rate (DSR) , defined as the percentage of harmful prompts for which the model produces safe outputs. To determine whether a response is harmful, we adopt LlamaGuard-3-8B Inan et al. ( 2023 ) , which provides a substantially more precise reference than traditional dictionary-based harmfulness filters. Partial harmfulness scores evaluated by GPT-Judge Qi et al. ( 2024 ) which evaluates the harmfulness of responses on a scale of 1 to 5, are reported in the Appendix B.5 . To evaluate the quality of model-generated responses under various defense strategies, we first assess mathematical ability on the GSM dataset Cobbe et al. ( 2021 ) . Additionally, the JustEval Lin et al. ( 2023 ) benchmark is adopted, which comprises 800 diverse instructions spanning multiple domains. Target models are prompted with these instructions under different defense methods. Response quality is evaluated using GPT-4.1 as an automated judge. We assess the frequency of Over-Refusal when models encounter benign prompts from the XSTest Röttger et al. ( 2024 ) , which are safe but include sensitive content, such as “What’s the best way of stealing a car in GTA 4?”, “What’s a plot for a murder in my novel?”. For detection-based defense strategies, over-refusal is counted when the model refuses to respond directly. 4.2 Experimental Results SafeProbing Improves Safety Against Jailbreak Attacks. Table 1 shows the performance of various defense methods against a range of jailbreak attacks. For straightforward harmful prompts such as AdvBench and HEx-PHI, most defense methods achieve high DSR. However, when faced with more complex and highly deceptive jailbreak attacks, the effectiveness of several strategies drops noticeably. In contrast, SafeProbing shows robust defense performance. By evaluating SafeProbing under multiple jailbreak attack strategies, we verify both its effectiveness and generalization ability. SafeProbing Reduces Over-Refusal Rate. Figure 5 shows the over-refusal counts on benign samples from the XSTest dataset under detection-based defense methods. SafeProbing exhibits a lower rate of over-refusal. Additionally, as shown in Table 3 , even without additional training and using a fixed threshold τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 , SafeProbing demonstrates a higher DSR and lower Over-Refusal rate compared to the evaluated baselines. Figure 5: Over-refusal counts on benign samples from the XSTest dataset under detection-based defense. General Capabilities Are Well Preserved. We additionally evaluate general capabilities since mitigation-based methods do not directly refuse user requests. As Table 2 illustrated, SafeProbing exhibits nearly no performance degradation. Notably, SafeProbing consistently preserves general capabilities better than other mitigation-based and detection-based defenses, with results close to the original models across all metrics. Overall, our results show that the performance of the original models is effectively preserved. Therefore, SafeProbing achieves a better balance between utility preservation and defense performance.

A fixed threshold (e.g., τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 ) yields better DSR and lower over-refusals than baseline methods. Safety-awareness-enhanced training further improves performance, with consistent generalization across diverse attack strategies. 4.3 Ablation Analysis Impact of the safety-enhanced training and the threshold τ \tau . As shown in Table 3 , by setting a fixed threshold value ( τ \tau ), such as 2.0, original models are able to effectively distinguish harmful outputs, even in under-aligned models like Mistral. By safety-awareness enhanced training, we observe an improvement in DSR, along with a reduction in over-refusal. Additional results on Llama3.1, Qwen3 and GLM4 are reported in Appendix B.1 . Impact of ratio. We next analyze the impact of the in-decoding ratio that controls the proportion of decoding steps involved in computing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ). As illustrated in Table 4 , computing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} only on the final output (denoted as ratio=0) leads to limited improvement in DSR. In contrast, incorporating the in-decoding strategy leads to a substantial performance gain. To better explore the capability of SafeProbing, we adopt a ratio of 0.2 in our main experiments. However, Table 4 shows that even a small ratio of 0.05 is sufficient to achieve strong detection performance, with acceptable additional computational cost. Detailed time overhead experiment is provided in Appendix B.4 . Impact of d c ​ o ​ r ​ e d_{core} . We examine the impact of applying different semantic clauses when calculating ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ). As shown in Table 5 , since a lower value implies a stronger tendency for the model to generate the disclaimer, the clause “illegal and unethical” exhibits the strongest detection performance among all evaluated disclaimer clauses.

We utilize the original models LLaVA Liu et al. ( 2023a ) , Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct Bai et al. ( 2025 ) , and GLM-4V-9b Wang et al. ( 2023 ) , and evaluate their harmful and benign outputs under multimodal jailbreak attacks: MM-SafetyBench Liu et al. ( 2024c ) , FigStep Gong et al. ( 2025 ) and HADES Li et al. ( 2024 ) . By analyzing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ) in response to these attacks, we observe that SafeProbing effectively distinguishes between benign and harmful outputs even in the context of visual inputs. This demonstrates the transferability of SafeProbing to the visual modality. Detailed experimental results are presented in Appendix B.3 . 4 Experiments 4.1 Experimental Setup Models. We conduct main experiments on two widely used open-source LLMs: Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct Yang et al. ( 2024 ) and Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3 MistralAI ( 2024 ) .

All jailbreak prompts are constructed by applying each attack method to the full set of 520 samples from AdvBench Zou et al. ( 2023 ) . In addition, all methods are evaluated on AdvBench Zou et al.

Mitigation-based methods aim to reduce the likelihood of the model generating harmful content. However, they may also lead to a decrease in the quality of model responses. Therefore, in addition to assessing their defense performance, we also examine the helpfulness of these methods. Detection-based methods: Backtranslation Wang et al. ( 2024 ) , RobustAligned Cao et al. ( 2024 ) , and SelfEval Phute et al. ( 2024 ) . Detection-based methods detect harmful content and typically return a fixed refusal string.

We additionally evaluate general capabilities since mitigation-based methods do not directly refuse user requests. As Table 2 illustrated, SafeProbing exhibits nearly no performance degradation. Notably, SafeProbing consistently preserves general capabilities better than other mitigation-based and detection-based defenses, with results close to the original models across all metrics. Overall, our results show that the performance of the original models is effectively preserved. Therefore, SafeProbing achieves a better balance between utility preservation and defense performance.

A fixed threshold (e.g., τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 ) yields better DSR and lower over-refusals than baseline methods. Safety-awareness-enhanced training further improves performance, with consistent generalization across diverse attack strategies. 4.2 Experimental Results SafeProbing Improves Safety Against Jailbreak Attacks. Table 1 shows the performance of various defense methods against a range of jailbreak attacks. For straightforward harmful prompts such as AdvBench and HEx-PHI, most defense methods achieve high DSR. However, when faced with more complex and highly deceptive jailbreak attacks, the effectiveness of several strategies drops noticeably. In contrast, SafeProbing shows robust defense performance. By evaluating SafeProbing under multiple jailbreak attack strategies, we verify both its effectiveness and generalization ability. SafeProbing Reduces Over-Refusal Rate. Figure 5 shows the over-refusal counts on benign samples from the XSTest dataset under detection-based defense methods. SafeProbing exhibits a lower rate of over-refusal. Additionally, as shown in Table 3 , even without additional training and using a fixed threshold τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 , SafeProbing demonstrates a higher DSR and lower Over-Refusal rate compared to the evaluated baselines. General Capabilities Are Well Preserved. We additionally evaluate general capabilities since mitigation-based methods do not directly refuse user requests. As Table 2 illustrated, SafeProbing exhibits nearly no performance degradation. Notably, SafeProbing consistently preserves general capabilities better than other mitigation-based and detection-based defenses, with results close to the original models across all metrics. Overall, our results show that the performance of the original models is effectively preserved. Therefore, SafeProbing achieves a better balance between utility preservation and defense performance.

As shown in Table 3 , by setting a fixed threshold value ( τ \tau ), such as 2.0, original models are able to effectively distinguish harmful outputs, even in under-aligned models like Mistral. By safety-awareness enhanced training, we observe an improvement in DSR, along with a reduction in over-refusal. Additional results on Llama3.1, Qwen3 and GLM4 are reported in Appendix B.1 . Impact of ratio. We next analyze the impact of the in-decoding ratio that controls the proportion of decoding steps involved in computing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ). As illustrated in Table 4 , computing ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} only on the final output (denoted as ratio=0) leads to limited improvement in DSR. In contrast, incorporating the in-decoding strategy leads to a substantial performance gain. To better explore the capability of SafeProbing, we adopt a ratio of 0.2 in our main experiments. However, Table 4 shows that even a small ratio of 0.05 is sufficient to achieve strong detection performance, with acceptable additional computational cost. Detailed time overhead experiment is provided in Appendix B.4 . Impact of d c ​ o ​ r ​ e d_{core} . We examine the impact of applying different semantic clauses when calculating ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} (Eq. 2 ). As shown in Table 5 , since a lower value implies a stronger tendency for the model to generate the disclaimer, the clause “illegal and unethical” exhibits the strongest detection performance among all evaluated disclaimer clauses.

By leveraging token-level loss as a real-time indicator, our method enables timely intervention and substantially improves model safety without sacrificing response quality. Extensive empirical results across diverse attack strategies and benchmarks confirm the robustness, efficiency, and generalizability of our approach. 5 Conclusion In this work, we systematically explore the safety-awareness exhibited by LLMs and demonstrate how their awareness can be harnessed for effective in-decoding detection and defense against jailbreak attacks.

Limitations Our current implementation adopts a conservative intervention strategy, in which a fixed refusal response is returned once harmful content is detected. This design choice is intended to isolate and emphasize the detection capability of SafeProbing, rather than to optimize user facing response generation or overall user experience. We defer the investigation of more flexible and adaptive response strategies, including partial redaction, guided rephrasing, and safety aware continuation, to future work.

Appendix A Detailed Settings A.1 Jailbreak Attacks Settings For AutoDAN Liu et al. ( 2024b ) , ReNeLLM Ding et al. ( 2024 ) , REDA Zheng et al. ( 2025 ) , and DRA Liu et al. ( 2024a ) , we directly run the official implementations to generate jailbreak prompts or use the released prompts when available. For IFSJ Zheng et al. ( 2024b ) , we adopt <|im_end|>\n<|im_start|>assistant\n as the special token for Qwen, and [/INST] for Mistral. For PAIR Chao et al. ( 2025 ) , we use deepseek-chat DeepSeek-AI ( 2024 ) as the attacker model, Vicuna Chiang et al. ( 2023 ) as the target model, as Vicuna is more susceptible to jailbreak attacks, which reduces the number of iterations required for attack , and Llama-Guard-3-8B Inan et al. ( 2023 ) as the judge. For AutoDAN-Turbo, we run the official code with Qwen2.5 serving as the attacker, summarizer, scorer and target to construct the attack strategy library, and subsequently generate jailbreak prompts using Qwen2.5 as the attacker, scorer, and the corresponding target model. To reduce computational cost, the number of epochs is set to 20.

For the untrained SafeProbing setting, we use a fixed threshold of τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 as a reference for comparison. A.2 Baseline Settings • No Defense. We begin by submitting the constructed prompts to the target models and collecting their original responses as the baseline results. In this setting, no defense methods are applied, allowing us to evaluate the model’s behavior and vulnerability to harmful prompts in the absence of any protection. • Backtranslation Wang et al. ( 2024 ) . We implement this baseline using the official code as the foundation. Both the generation of the backtranslation prompt and the final response are performed using the same target model. • SafeDecoding Xu et al. ( 2024 ) . For experiments with the SafeDecoding defense method, we closely follow the implementation details provided in the official repository. Since no pre-trained expert LoRA adapter is provided by the official repository for Qwen and Mistral. Therefore, we train LoRA adapters using the training scripts supplied by SafeDecoding, and employ this adapter for subsequent experiments. All decoding parameters are set to the default values specified in the official codebase. • DRO Zheng et al. ( 2024a ) . We use the official implementation to train soft prompts on the provided dataset. The resulting soft prompts are then directly applied to Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3 and Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct for evaluation. • ICD, RobustAligned, SmoothLLM, SelfEval. We conduct experiments for these four baseline methods using the code provided by Zhang et al. ( 2025b ) . A.3 SafeProbing Settings Details of our datasets. We select 600 samples from SafeRLHF Dai et al. ( 2024 ) to serve as the primary training set. We incorporated an additional 200 benign prompt-response pairs from UltraFeedback, labeled as harmless, along with 100 prompt-rejection pairs as harmless data into the training set. Moreover, we use 100 samples from UltraFeedback for use as ℒ r \mathcal{L}_{r} . The validation set is constructed using the same method as the training set. The constructed training dataset is made publicly available in our released code. Training Settings. To fine-tune the original model using LoRA Hu et al. ( 2022 ) , we use Trainer in transformers packages. The default parameters are shown in Table 7 . Hyper-parameter Default Value Lora Alpha 32 Lora Rank 8 Target Modules q_proj, k_proj, v_proj, o_proj Train Batch Size 16 Train Epochs 2 Learning Rate 5e-5 Max Sequence Length 256 Table 7: Training Settings Hyperparameter Settings. both β \beta and the threshold τ \tau are treated as tunable hyperparameters. We fix τ \tau to 2.0 and search for the optimal value of β \beta based on validation dataset. Our selection criterion is to maximize the identification of harmful responses while maintaining a low over-refusal rate. Detailed experimental results are presented in Table 11 . In our evaluation, the over-refusal is defined as the number of benign samples in the validation set that are incorrectly identified as harmful. The accuracy (acc) refers to the proportion of harmful samples in the validation set that are correctly identified as harmful (last-check ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} ). We prioritize ensuring low over-refusal. Based on the results presented in Table 11 , we set the optimal value of β \beta to 0.5 for Qwen2.5 and Qwen3, 0.4 for Llama, 0.7 for Mistral and GLM. Figure 6: The figure presents the density distributions of both original and Safety-Awareness Enhanced ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} on both benign and harmful samples. The overlap is reduced through our in-decoding probing strategy. This suggests that our probing method provides strong signals of harmfulness.

( 2023 ) for more models, including Qwen3 and GLM4. We choose MaliciousInstruct due to its smaller dataset size which allows for reduced computational cost which facilitates faster reproducibility and to further verify that SafeProbing is effective beyond AdvBench. For the untrained SafeProbing setting, we adopt a fixed threshold of τ = 2.0 \tau=2.0 as a reference for comparison. As shown in Table 6 , SafeProbing achieves strong defense success rates and lower over-refusals across multiple models. B.2 Distribution of ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} In this subsection, we analyze the distribution of the in-decoding loss ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} using UltraFeedback as benign data and harmful outputs generated by AutoDAN, DRA and AutoDAN-Turbo as harmful data, all evaluated with original models and safety-awareness enhanced models. As illustrated in Figure 6 , probing only after the full response is generated leads to substantial overlap between benign and harmful samples. In contrast, the in-decoding strategy significantly reduces this overlap, enabling effective discrimination between benign and malicious outputs based on our in-decoding signals. Therefore, SafeProbing exhibits better performance as a defense method. B.3 SafeProbing under Visual Input In this section, we explore the effectiveness of SafeProbing on large visual models. We utilize the vanilla models LLaVA Liu et al. ( 2023a ) , Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct Bai et al. ( 2025 ) , and GLM-4V-9b Wang et al. ( 2023 ) , and evaluate their harmful and benign outputs under multimodal jailbreak attacks: MM-SafetyBench Liu et al. ( 2024c ) HADES Li et al. ( 2024 ) and FigStep Gong et al. ( 2025 ) . By examining the models’ ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c \mathcal{L}_{disc} in reaction to these attacks, we find that SafeProbing differentiates between benign and harmful outputs, even when dealing with visual inputs, as shown in Table 8 . This highlights the ability of SafeProbing to transfer across the visual modality. B.4 Time Cost We evaluate the time efficiency of several detection-based methods on the JustEval dataset (Table 9 ), reporting both the per-sample latency overhead and the slowdown relative to the no-defense baseline on Qwen. Our method incurs lower additional overhead than existing detection-based. While the main experiments use ratio = 0.2, Table 4 shows that SafeProbing remains effective at ratio = 0.05 with negligible computational cost. B.5 GPT-Judge In the main experiments, we use the classification results from LlamaGuard, which provides a substantially more precise reference than traditional dictionary-based harmfulness filters, as the reference. In this part, we further adopt GPT-Judge Qi et al. ( 2024 ) to provide more fine-grained harmfulness scores (Table 10 ). Due to cost considerations, these experiments are conducted only on a subset of results obtained with Qwen.

She also receives an overtime pay of 1.2 times her regular hourly rate. If Eliza worked for 45 hours this week, how much are her earnings for this week? Response Eliza is entitled to 45 -40 = <<45-40=5>>5 hours overtime pay. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 9.50 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=9.50) Her hourly rate for the overtime pay is $10 x 1.2 = $<<10*1.2=12>>12. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 8.96 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=8.96) So, Eliza will receive $12 x 5 =$<<12*5=60>>60 for overtime pay. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 9.90 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=9.90) Her regular weekly earning is $10 x 40 = $<<10*40=400>>400.

Retinoids work by: 1. **Promoting Exfoliation**: They help to speed up the turnover of skin cells, reducing the likelihood of pores becoming clogged. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 8.93 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=8.93) 2. **Reducing Inflammation**: Some forms of retinoids can help reduce inflammation associated with acne. 3. **Controlling Bacteria**: Retinoids can help control the growth of bacteria that contribute to acne.

Response Eliza is entitled to 45 -40 = <<45-40=5>>5 hours overtime pay. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 9.50 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=9.50) Her hourly rate for the overtime pay is $10 x 1.2 = $<<10*1.2=12>>12. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 8.96 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=8.96) So, Eliza will receive $12 x 5 =$<<12*5=60>>60 for overtime pay. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 9.90 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=9.90) Her regular weekly earning is $10 x 40 = $<<10*40=400>>400. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 10.01 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=10.01) Thus, Eliza will receive a total of $400 + $60 = $<<400+60=460>>460 for this week’s work. #### 460 ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 8.54 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=8.54) Prompt Do you think retinoid is effective on removing the acne? because I have a lot of it Response Retinoids can be very effective in treating acne, especially for those with inflammatory acne or blackheads and whiteheads (closed comedones). Retinoids work by: 1. **Promoting Exfoliation**: They help to speed up the turnover of skin cells, reducing the likelihood of pores becoming clogged. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 8.93 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=8.93) 2. **Reducing Inflammation**: Some forms of retinoids can help reduce inflammation associated with acne. 3. **Controlling Bacteria**: Retinoids can help control the growth of bacteria that contribute to acne. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 7.92 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=7.92) However, they can also cause side effects such as dryness, redness, peeling, and increased sensitivity to the sun. It’s important to use them under the guidance of a dermatologist, who can recommend the appropriate strength and frequency based on your skin type and the severity of your acne. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 9.54 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=9.54) If you’re experiencing a high number of acne lesions, consulting with a dermatologist is highly recommended. They can provide personalized advice and treatment options tailored to your specific needs. ( ℒ d ​ i ​ s ​ c = 9.41 ) (\mathcal{L}_{disc}=9.41) C.2 SafeProbing Incurs No Performance Degradation on Benign Input

Home News Sport Business Innovation Health Culture Arts Travel Earth Audio Video Live Documentaries Home News Sport Business Innovation Health Culture Arts Travel Earth Audio Video Live Documentaries S Korea's ex-president Yoon to be jailed for five years over martial law bid 6 hours ago Share Save Jake Kwon , Seoul correspondent and Leehyun Choi , Seoul Share Save EPA/Shutterstock Yoon was impeached in 2024 for his martial law attempt South Korea's impeached president Yoon Suk Yeol will be jailed for five years over abuse of power, obstructing justice and falsifying documents in relation to his failed martial law bid in 2024. This is the first of the verdicts in four trials linked to his shock martial law decree. Although short-lived, the move triggered nationwide turmoil, sparking protests as MPs rushed to the national assembly to overturn Yoon's decision. Yoon's actions "plunged the country into political crisis", a judge said on Friday, noting that Yoon had "consistently shown no remorse". Friday's ruling offers clues as to how the rest of Yoon's trials could go. His string of charges range from abuse of power to campaign law violations. The most serious charge is insurrection, for which prosecutors have demanded the death penalty. The verdict in that trial is expected in February. About 100 supporters of Yoon had gathered outside the courthouse on Friday to watch the livestreamed proceedings projected on a large screen. Some of them held red banners that read: "Yoon, again! Make Korea great again". Several could be heard yelling at the judge as he delivered the guilty verdicts, while others looked solemn. On Friday, Yoon was convicted of using presidential bodyguards to prevent his arrest; failing to consult his entire cabinet before declaring martial law; as well as drafting and then destroying a falsified document claiming the martial law bid had been endorsed by the prime minister and defence minister. "The accused has the duty to safeguard the constitution and law but turned his back on them," the judge said. Prosecutors had sought a 10-year jail term for the charges in Friday's ruling. Both sides have seven days to appeal. About 100 supporters of Yoon had gathered outside the courthouse on Friday Yoon denied the charges, arguing that the arrest warrant itself was invalid and that the letter of the law does not require him to consult every member of the cabinet before exercising emergency power. He had claimed across his trials that investigators had no legal basis to probe and arrest him in the first place. Most of the accusations against him are invalid because there was no procedural lapse when he declared martial law, he argues. South Korea's courts often grant leniency when the accused accepts guilt or responsibility. But prosecutors argue that Yoon's lack of remorse is grounds for an even more severe penalty. Park Geun-hye, who was sentenced to 20 years in prison for abuse of power and bribery in 2021, was the last former president to be jailed for a criminal charge. But she was pardoned and released from prison shortly after. Six months after Yoon's martial law attempt, voters elected opposition leader Lee Jae Myung in a decisive victory . But Yoon's trials bring the spotlight back to deep divisions in South Korea, where the former president retains strong supporters who see him as a martyr. According to a survey conducted last December, nearly 30% of South Koreans did not believe that Yoon's martial law declaration amounted to an insurrection. While his martial law attempt brought tens of thousands of protesters onto the streets, it also saw his supporters show up in counter protests, though in smaller numbers.

Unlike existing benchmarks that primarily assess models' proficiency in reasoning-based geometry-where solutions are derived using algebraic methods-NoReGeo focuses on evaluating whether LLMs can inherently encode spatial relationships and recognize geometric properties directly. Our benchmark comprises 2,500 trivial geometric problems spanning 25 categories, each carefully crafted to be solvable purely through native geometric understanding, assuming known object locations. We assess a range of state-of-the-art models on NoReGeo, including frontier models like GPT-4, observing that even the most advanced systems achieve an overall maximum of 65% accuracy in binary classification tasks. Further, our ablation experiments demonstrate that such geometric understanding does not emerge through fine-tuning alone, indicating that effective training for geometric comprehension requires a specialized approach from the outset. Our findings highlight a significant gap in current LLMs' ability to natively grasp geometric concepts, providing a foundation for future research toward models with true geometric cognition.

It continues to uplift everybody's intelligence and knowledge on a daily basis with philosophy that feels abandoned in most corners of the Internet. Never change! Or, rather, keep changing. :) -- FluddStop - Dirty's meaner than clean! 01:41, 16 January 2026 (UTC) [ reply ] Happy Birthday! Happy 25th birthday, Wikipedia!

Hi Wikipedia editors, I hope that you enjoy this incredible milestone on Wikipedia. I am incredibly grateful to all of the editors who put all of their hard work to make Wikipedia as accurate, neutral, and trusted as possible. If I had to maintain Wikipedia on my own, I would be very burned out and my work would come into the halt. It is you that have helped me despite our disagreements and all the reverts that happen with Wikipedia. I wanted to share to you about my journey as a Wikipedia editor and and my thoughts on Wikipedia itself, how it improved over time, and where I see Wikipedia headed going into the future. My story starts around the time I was about 10 years and registered this account in 2011. My Wikipedia editing has had a rough start as I was a preteen heading into my teen years and I just made changes because I thought it would be better. I didn't understand the concept of talk pages and discussing controversial changes at the time. I was eventually blocked from editing which while it was listed as a vandalism-only account , I think a more accurate reason was a lack of competence . My intentions were good, but my brain wasn't fully developed yet to be a trusted Wikipedia editor. After that, I evaded my block while logged out and a few years later, I filed an appeal. Given that I was actively evading my block when the appeal was written, it was an easy for an admintrator to decline the appeal. I wanted to get back into editing and I learned that evading my block is a serious mistrust on Wikipedia, so I eventually stopped editing for a while, took the standard offer and filed an appeal without an recent evasion of my block. I made sure to address the key points of my block and committed to being a productive editor. My appeal was eventually accepted and I was back as a regular editor. Since my unblock, I have worked very hard to gain the trust of the editors that I work with and even gained permissions to help me do editing work including asking questions at the teahouse to learn the ropes of editing. Eventually, I decided that I didn't really need the permissions as much as I believe there are already plenty of editors that do stuff like fighting vandalism and handling page moves. I eventually decided to take a stab at the mop which was a very brutal RfA with strong opposition against my candidacy. I originally wanted to have it open for as long as possible, but considering the fact that RfA was unlikely to pass anyways, I decided to withdraw my candidacy and focus on improving the encyclopedia without the admin tools. In the end, I feel like Wikipedia would best be served if I did not hold the admin tools and I don't intend to run for adminship anytime soon, but won't rule it out if there's ever a time where I would benefit from the tools, although I don't anticipate needing them. I feel like if I needed to do a task that required an admin, then there are plenty of admins willing to do so. So that leads me to now. I am still an editor, editing articles where help is needed and participating in backend Wikipedia work. I look forward to serving Wikipedia for as long as my time permits me to do. Wikipedia was founded in 2001, the same year I was born. I read and use Wikipedia every day, similar to how I use Google , YouTube , ChatGPT , and Reddit . I've always been impressed with how resilient Wikipedia has become over the years and I have enjoyed this site for quite a while. Even in the age of AI, even before the policies on LLMs, I've always preferred to write my own content, as when I use an LLM to write stuff for me, it doesn't always write in the style that I want, so I prefer writing my own way. We are way past the days where an editor can just edit and write whatever they want and that it stands for a while. I am very glad that editors have put a lot of effort to reverting those types of content as I rarely see vandalism last for over an hour before it is reverted. I really feel the reliability of Wikipedia has improved a lot over time and I am very grateful that I can trust the content Wikipedia gives. I know schools and other academic institutions have a strict policy against citing Wikipedia, but I feel that when doing any kind of research, Wikipedia works well as a starting point and then I dive deeper into sources that go much more in depth than Wikipedia does. I'm grateful for this free resource of knowledge and I look forward to many more good years on Wikipedia. Shout out to Nick Moyes and Oshwah for tremendously helping me get to this point.

Here's to many more years of endless available and reliable information. In an age where people can trust what they see on the internet less and less, this website has become something I go for most of my information, whether it's just for some quick information, rabbit-holes, or finding sources for school projects. Just to share a little Wikipedia history involving myself, I remember one of my high school teachers tried to demonstrate that Wikipedia was unreliable by showing the page for the sport Newcomb ball where they edited in a "Rhode Island Rules" section which their friend allegedly completely made up. It still exists today but continues to have no sources attached to it. She meant it as a lesson not to trust the site, but to me, it should have been a lesson not to trust things that are missing sources. That would have much more positive impact, I think. Also make sure to glance over the talk & history pages. Anyway, I'd also like to share my current rabbit hole, which has been on pre-bronze age cultures. The article on Cucuteni–Trypillia culture is extremely interesting. They were part of a larger group of people who purposefully burned their houses down (no spoilers for the hypotheses on why) and had some of the largest cities in the world in their prime, if that captures your attention.

Wikipedia essentially taught me how to write in proper, publication-editor level grammar (that would be why I am addicted to using semicolons in sentences), was the place I could lost in and wander back through the years of history to explore humanity’s past great accomplishments (which, other than the ‘past’ part, Wikipedia has rightfully established itself as), and, above all, served as a knowledge reference, a guide, and a community when nothing and no one else would.

Pierre Corneille , 1606 m. birželio 6 d. Ruane – 1684 m. spalio 1 d. Paryžiuje ) – prancūzų dramaturgas , vienas žymiausių literatūros klasicizmo atstovų Prancūzijoje, laikomas prancūzų klasikinės tragedijos pradininku. Jis sukūrė 34 dramas, tarp jų komedijas , tragikomedijas ir tragedijas , ir kartu su Moljeru bei Žanu Rasinu priskiriamas prie trijų didžiųjų XVII a. prancūzų dramaturgų. Kornelis buvo Prancūzijos Akademijos narys (nuo 1647 m.), jo brolis Tomas Kornelis – taip pat žinomas dramaturgas. Pjeras Kornelis gimė pasiturinčių miestiečių šeimoje šiaurės Prancūzijoje . Jis mokėsi jėzuitų kolegijoje Ruane , kur pasižymėjo gabumais klasikiniams mokslams, laimėjo lotynų kalbos poezijos konkursų. 1624 m. gavęs teisės magistro laipsnį, būdamas aštuoniolikos pradėjo dirbti advokatu ir karaliaus tarybos teisėju Ruane . Vis dėlto teisininko darbas jo nežavėjo, nes labiau domėjosi teatru . Jau 1629 m. Kornelis parašė savo pirmąją pjesę – elegantišką komediją „Melita“ ( pranc. Mélite ), kuri buvo sėkmingai pastatyta Ruane, o vėliau Paryžiuje . Per kelerius metus jis sukūrė dar keletą komedijų apie jaunų žmonių meilę ir papročius, tarp jų „Našlę“ ( La Veuve , 1632), „Karaliaus galeriją“ ( La Galerie du Palais , 1633), „Palydovę“ ( La Suivante , 1634), „Karališkąją aikštę“ ( La Place royale , 1634) ir fantazijos elementų turinčią „Komiškąją iliuziją“ ( L’Illusion comique , 1636). Kornelio talentas patraukė galingojo kardinolo Rišeljė dėmesį – dramaturgas buvo pakviestas į vadinamąją „penkių autorių“ draugiją, kuri kūrė pjeses pagal paties Rišeljė pateiktus siužetus. Tačiau Kornelis neilgai ištvėrė kolektyvinio darbo sąlygas ir, nesutikdamas aklai vykdyti kardinolo sumanymų, pasitraukė iš šios grupės. Daugiau...

In humans, it is the ability of individuals or communities to adapt and self-manage when facing physical, mental, or social challenges. The most widely accepted definition of good health is that of the World Health Organization Constitution. It states: "health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and is not merely the absence of disease or infirmity" (World Health Organization, 1946). In more recent years, this statement has been amplified to include the ability to lead a "socially and economically productive life." The WHO definition is not without criticism; mainly that it is much too broad. The most solid aspects of wellness that fit firmly in the realm of medicine are environmental health, nutrition, disease prevention, and public health. These matters can be investigated at length, and can assist in measuring well-being. Please see our medical disclaimer for cautions about Wikipedia's limitations. More about Health...

This is a level of functional and (or) metabolic efficiency of a person in mind, body, and spirit; being free from illness, injury or pain (as in " good health " or " healthy "). The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader sense in 1946 as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." Death – cessation of life. Exercise – any bodily activity that enhances or maintains physical fitness and overall health and wellness. It is performed for various reasons, including strengthening muscles and the cardiovascular system, honing athletic skills, weight loss or maintenance, and mental health, including the prevention of depression. Frequent and regular physical exercise boosts the immune system and helps prevent the "diseases of affluence" such as heart disease , cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes mellitus, and obesity. Nutrition – provision, to cells and organisms, of the materials necessary (in the form of food) to support life. Life extension – The study of slowing down or reversing the processes of aging to extend both the maximum and average lifespan. Health sciences – applied sciences that address the use of science, technology, engineering, or mathematics in the delivery of healthcare to human beings. Medicine – science and art of healing. It encompasses a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness. Anesthesia – a way to control pain during a surgery or procedure by using a medicine called anesthetics. Cardiology – the branch of medicine dealing with disorders of the human heart. The field includes medical diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart defects, coronary artery disease, heart failure, valvular heart disease, and electrophysiology. Clinical research – an aspect of biomedical research that addresses the assessment of new pharmaceutical and biological drugs, medical devices, and vaccines in humans. Dentistry – a branch of medicine that is involved in the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the mouth, maxillofacial area, and the adjacent and associated structures (teeth) and their impact on the human body. Emergency medicine – medical specialty involving care for undifferentiated, unscheduled patients with acute illnesses or injuries that require immediate medical attention. Emergency physicians undertake acute investigations and interventions to resuscitate and stabilize patients. Obstetrics – medical specialty dealing with the care of all women's reproductive tracts and their children during pregnancy (prenatal period), childbirth, and the postnatal period. Trauma and Orthopedics – medical specialty dealing with bones, joints and operative management of trauma. Pathology – focuses on the study, diagnosis, and understanding of disease Disease – abnormal condition that adversely affects the structure or function of all or part of an organism and is not immediately due to any external injury. Diabetes – a group of metabolic diseases in which the person has high blood glucose (blood sugar) above 200mg/dl, either because insulin production is inadequate, or because the body's cells do not respond properly to insulin or both. Infectious disease – illness or disorder when pathogenic (disease-causing) microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites invade and multiply within the body of a host organism and release toxins, causing various clinical symptoms which can potentially lead to severe health complications or even death. Psychiatry – medical specialty devoted to the study and treatment of mental disorders. These mental disorders include various affective, behavioral, cognitive, and perceptual abnormalities. Autism – mental condition, present from early childhood, characterized by great difficulty in communicating and forming relationships with other people and in using language and abstract concepts. Dyslexia – learning disability that affects either reading or writing. Different people are affected to different degrees. Problems may include difficulties in spelling words, reading quickly, writing words, "sounding out" words in the head, pronouncing words when reading aloud and understanding what one reads.

Psychiatry – medical specialty devoted to the study and treatment of mental disorders. These mental disorders include various affective, behavioral, cognitive, and perceptual abnormalities. Autism – mental condition, present from early childhood, characterized by great difficulty in communicating and forming relationships with other people and in using language and abstract concepts. Dyslexia – learning disability that affects either reading or writing. Different people are affected to different degrees. Problems may include difficulties in spelling words, reading quickly, writing words, "sounding out" words in the head, pronouncing words when reading aloud and understanding what one reads. Bipolar disorder – mental disorder that causes periods of depression and periods of abnormally elevated mood. Psychiatric survivors movement – diverse association of individuals who either currently access mental health services (known as consumers or service users), or who are survivors of interventions by psychiatry, or who are ex-patients of mental health.

Behavioral guidelines outline ways for editors to behave and interact with each other on talk pages and elsewhere at Wikipedia. Content guidelines apply only to the article namespace (unless otherwise specified in the guideline), and offer advice on identifying and including encyclopedic information in articles. Deletion guidelines explain criteria and procedures for deleting unwanted pages. Editing guidelines usually provide non-content advice about categorization, navigation or other how-to-edit advice. Naming conventions detail the correct ways to name articles on particular topics. Notability guidelines outline the criteria that a subject must meet to merit a Wikipedia article. Style guidelines contain extensive advice on writing style, formatting, grammar, and more. Guidelines can also be navigated via the other directory , categories , the navigation template or by a custom search box (as seen below) Behavioral Behavioral guidelines expand on the twelve conduct policies .
