Canadians again - something a little more substantive
Politicians worldwide are discovering the internet - what a great tool
for fascism, once you got the laws in place to solve that whole
'anonymity' thing. Also I notice this story shows the truth - the
Canadian government is really located in Washington, DC, Ottawa is just
a branch office. Come to think of it, the last story I posted about
Canada featured the head of its military, 'speaking to us from military
HQ in Palm Beach, Florida.'

*Will Canada's ISPs become spies?*
By Declan McCullagh <mailto:declan.mccullagh@cnet.com>

*WASHINGTON--The Canadian government is considering a proposal that
would force Internet providers to rewire their networks for easy
surveillance by police and spy agencies.*
A discussion draft <http://www.canada.justice.gc.ca/en/cons/la_al/>
released Sunday also contemplates creating a national database of every
Canadian with an Internet account, a plan that could sharply curtail the
right to be anonymous online.
The Canadian government, including the Department of Justice
<http://canada.justice.gc.ca/> and Industry Canada
<http://www.ic.gc.ca/>, wrote the 21-page blueprint as a near-final step
in a process that seeks to give law enforcement agents more authority to
conduct electronic surveillance. A proposed law based on the discussion
draft is expected to be introduced in Parliament late this year or in
early 2003.
Arguing that more and more communications take place in electronic form,
Canadian officials say such laws are necessary to fight terrorism and
combat even run-of-the-mill crimes. They also claim that by enacting
these proposals, Canada will be following its obligations under the
Council of Europe's cybercrime treaty
<http://news.com.com/2100-1001-268894.html>, which the country is in the
process of considering.
If the discussion draft were to become law, it would outlaw the
possession of computer viruses, authorize police to order Internet
providers to retain logs of all Web browsing for up to six months, and
permit police to obtain a search warrant allowing them to find "hidden
electronic and digital devices" that a suspect might be concealing. In
most circumstances, a court order would be required for government
agents to conduct Internet monitoring.
Canada and the United States are nonvoting members of the Council of
Europe, and representatives from both countries' police agencies have
endorsed the controversial cybercrime treaty
<http://conventions.coe.int/Treaty/EN/CadreListeTraites.htm>, which has
drawn protests from human rights activists and civil liberties groups.
Of nearly 50 participating nations, only Albania has formally adopted
<http://conventions.coe.int/Treaty/EN/searchsig.asp?NT=185&CM=8&DF=27/08/02>,
or ratified, the treaty.
Michael Geist <http://aix1.uottawa.ca/%7Egeist/>, a professor at the
University of Ottawa who specializes in e-commerce law, says that the
justification for adopting such sweeping changes to Canadian law seems
weak.
"It seems to me that the main justification they've given for all the
changes is that we want to ratify the cybercrime treaty and we need to
make changes," Geist said. "To me that's not a particularly convincing
argument. If there are new powers needed for law enforcement authority,
make that case."
Geist added that "there's nothing in the document that indicates (new
powers) are needed. I don't know that there have been a significant
number of cases where police have run into problems."
Probably the most sweeping change the legal blueprint contemplates is
compelling Internet providers and telephone companies to reconfigure
their networks to facilitate government eavesdropping and data-retention
orders. The United States has a similar requirement, called the
Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act
<http://www.epic.org/privacy/wiretap/calea/calea_law.html>, but it
applies only to pre-Internet telecommunications companies.
"It is proposed that all service providers (wireless, wireline and
Internet) be required to ensure that their systems have the technical
capability to provide lawful access to law enforcement and national
security agencies," according to the proposal. Companies would be
responsible for paying the costs of buying new equipment.
Sarah Andrews, an analyst at the Electronic Privacy Information Center
<http://www.epic.org/> (EPIC) who specializes in international law, says
the proposal goes beyond what the cybercrime treaty specifies. "Their
proposal for intercept capability talks about all service providers, not
just Internet providers," Andrews said. "The cybercrime treaty deals
only with computer data." EPIC opposes
<http://www.privacyinternational.org/issues/cybercrime/coe/ngo_letter_601.htm>
the cybercrime treaty, saying it grants too much power to police and
does not adequately respect privacy rights.
Another section of the proposal says the Canadian Association of Chiefs
of Police recommends "the establishment of a national database" with
personal information about all Canadian Internet users. "The
implementation of such a database would presuppose that service
providers are compelled to provide accurate and current information,"
the draft says.
Gus Hosein, a visiting fellow at the London School of Economics and an
activist with Privacy International, calls the database "a dumb idea."
"Immediately you have to wonder if you're allowed to use anonymous
mobile phones or whether you're allowed to connect to the Internet
anonymously," Hosein said.
A representative for George Radwanski
<http://www.privcom.gc.ca/au_e.asp>, Canada's privacy commissioner, said
the office is reviewing the blueprint and does not "have any comments on
the paper as it stands."
Comments on the proposal can be sent to la-al@justice.gc.ca
<mailto:la-al@justice.gc.ca> no later than Nov. 15.

Speedy deletion of Lucinda Scala Quinn
A tag has been placed on Lucinda Scala Quinn requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or ""db"" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — (talk) " | toxic | en |

Hello. To Jeffro77 above... The original and first reference that I put in was Thomas Cahill, and his book The Gifts of the Jews - How a Tribe of Desert Nomads Changed the Way Everyone Thinks and Feels. And I originally put that ref alone. The Wilson ref came later on, from a search, and at the request of Jeppiz. But Cahill alone I felt was overall sufficient at that point. (And that Cahill book had literally zero to do with anything with Jehovah’s witnesses, or any JW books or journals or sermons.) That wasn’t even on my mind in that sense, nor did I look at ANY Watchtower publications regarding this article or this specific matter. Cahill had nothing to do with that. And even Jeppiz admitted a number of times that it was a reliable source and ok. But the Wilson source I provided here later on (and then soon on the article itself) was only at the demand of Jeppiz, for another source. He kept insisting to find something else, etc, so I did a search, and the Wilson thing was even more pointed in a way, and it’s in a pro-JW website, “strictly genteel”, which transcribed the noted WT book “Is the Bible Really the Word of God?”, and the link can be found here (Also, to DougWeller, hello. I’m still not sure why you say that I got the name of the book wrong. That’s what’s stated as the source. J.A. Wilson. And “The World History of the Jewish People”. At least that’s he main part of the name of the book, and I believe Wilson was a co-author of that or something.) But, to Jeffro, you seem to think (incorrectly) that I probably had the Wilson ref as paramount, when in actuality that was just a side thing and accident, because of subsequent demands and circumstances on this Talk page. Cahill was actually my guy on this specific matter on the Exodus matter, NOT Wilson necessarily nearly as much. The exact (in-context) quote from Cahill’s book says this:
“When we examine the considerable extant literatures of Mesopotamia and Egypt, we find no obvious mention of the Israelites. If, as the majority of scholars have provisionally concluded, Israel escaped from Egypt in the reign of Rameses II about midway through the thirteenth century B.C., why is there no record of this marvellous defeat in any Egyptian text or inscription? Of course, the defeat may have been so embarrassing to Egypt that, like many great powers, it could not allow itself to record honestly what happened. Alternatively, the story of the drowning of Pharaoh’s army may have been inflated over time by Hebrew oral tradition, and what had been a minor skirmish in Egyptian eyes (we know, for instance, that Ramses II died not in a watery grave but in his bed) was eventually puffed up beyond all recognition. Most radically: the Exodus may never have taken place, but may be just a story concocted, like Gilgamesh, by nomadic herdsmen in need of an evening’s entertainment. This last hypothesis, though temptingly unambiguous, can be maintained only by ignoring undeniable aspects of the actual text of the Bible. There are real differences—literary differences, differences of tone and taste, but, far more important, differences of substance and approach to material—between Gilgamesh and Exodus, and even between Gilgamesh and Genesis.""
Cahill continues:
""The anonymous authors of Gilgamesh tell their story in the manner of a myth. There is no attempt to convince us that anything in the story ever took place in historical time. At every point, rather, we are reminded that the action is taking place “once upon a time”—in other words, in that pristine Golden Time outside of meaningless earthly time. The story of Gilgamesh, like the gods themselves, belong to the realm of the stars. It is meant as a model for the hearers, who believed, in any case, that everything important, everything archeteypal, happened, had happened, was happening—it is impossible to fix this occurrence clearly in one tense, since it occurs outside of time—beyond the earthly realm of unimportant instances. For all the ancients (except the Israelites, the people who would become the Jews), time as we think of it was unreal; the Real was what was heavenly and archetypal. For us, the heirs of the Jewish perception, the exact opposite is true: earthly time is real time; Eternity, if we think of it at all, is the end of time (or simply an illusion). The text of the Bible is full of clues that the authors are attempting to write history of some sort....But there is in these tales a kind of specificity—a concreteness of detail, a concern to get things right—that convinces us that the writer has no doubt that each of the main events he chronicles happened.”
He makes it pretty clear that, even though not saying it dogmatically, he does | toxic | en |

Irving quote
Re: Authoritive statements of Irving in [Battle of Britain] article.
You have re-wrote the section as following:
Historian David Irving states that part of this reason was due to the totally inadequate production levels, with 250 single-engined and 64 twin-engined fighter aircraft produced on avarage per month during early 1941Irving 1974, p. 163., and that as a result, the number of German front line aircraft were declining, and this problem would not be improved until the spring of 1942, with a huge effort to expand production, reaching 1,200 by March/April 1942.Irving 1974, p. 142.
In fact, however, Irving does not make these statements. If you read the book (which has been linked in free pdf format), here is what he writes on page 163:
On Milch’s desk there were already the most alarming reports not only of the gathering RAF bomber strength but of bomber production in America too. To him, air defence rested primarily on the fighter squadrons, but at present the Air Staff was calling for only fighter aircraft to be produced a month. Fighter production had averaged single- and twin-engined aircraft a month during . Milch and his new planning chief von Gablenz wanted far greater numbers, and with more bombers as well not only the He s but Ju s of the latest type as well.⁴⁰
etc.
Ie. Irving does not state 'totally inadequate production levels' (and even less, mentions bombers), this is the addition of one editor to the Irving book, which has been described as 'Milchs diary' (which is it not, either) | toxic | en |

""No. an unreliable source that agrees with other sources does not become reliable. never. never ever. sorry."" Perhaps I was not explaining my point in enough detail. The source is only there to confirm what the other four sources (provided at your demand) also corraborate. Therefore, the information being used for that source is reliable even though it does not necessarily meet your litmus test for what a reliable source is. That's my point as it was in the previous reference I gave for the Glock 18 interchangeability. That point is one you conceded and I'm using the same logic to refute your argument in this case as well. " | toxic | en |

In working on Wikipedia, you may occasionally get into a dispute with another person. That person may seem like a troll or a hothead to you, but it's usually best to assume that you are dealing with a reasonable person who is simply confused on a particular issue or has a POV different from your own.

: Unusually (I think uniquely) this bell was worn in UK service, not just collected during a tour of North America.
: The loco was built as Woodcock. In 1937, part of the coronation of George VI celebrations was the LNER's Coronation express service. This was hauled by new-build A4s with garter blue livery and stainless trim. Several A4s were renamed with names to commemorate the Commonwealth nations - this was a relatively new concept at the time, having only been formed a few years earlier as the old British Empire began to reorganise. 4489 only ran for a month or so before renaming, The new Dominions (Two Dominions, one Union, one Commonwealth and an Empire) were quite positive about these changes at the time (India less so) and joined in the celebrations. The CPR donated a chime whistle to this project, and after a few years the bell to go with it.
: The bell lasted under the '50s BR rebuilds, when a double chimney was fitted. With no space available, the bell was removed and stored. In the '60s she was donated to the Canadian museum and the bell went overseas too. As she was never restored in Canada (as had been planned) and the chimney was still a double, there was nowhere to put the bell.
: Supposedly she survived withdrawal from BR by the narrowest of margins. Gresley pacifics, being three cylindered, were difficult to tow as scrap as the middle cylinder connecting rod needed to be dropped first. This was impossible in situ and had to be done over a pit - or else with a gas axe. By some mix up this hadn't been done immediately and she sat for too long to be moved again without serious fitter attention. So she sat for even longer and longer (there was no shortage of easier steam locos to be shipped off first), getting overgrown by brambles in some Rev Awdry fashion. She even outlived Darlington shed itself. One day platelayers arrived to start lifting the old metals of the steam shed, only to find there was a gurt hefty A4 left sat on them, hiding in the bushes! While the matter was decided between whether to haul it out or to chop in situ, someone thought to palm it off on the Canadians instead. On the way to the docks she stopped at Crewe to have a few missing bits re-attached from other scrapped A4s and a repaint with an inappropriate can of brunswick green that happened to be open at the time. Which is about as far as the Candians ever got with restoration for the next 40 years. Only with the big reunion restoration in the UK (which needed a lot of body filler and T cut) the chimney went back to a single and the bell was refitted. | toxic | en |

I looked at what you did there, and unsuprisingly I saw this edit of yours:
According to orthodox Jewish and Christian eschatological beliefs, and secular historians and scholars, the concept of the Son of Perdition (also called ""the beast that goes into perdition"" in Revelation and ) is used in the Bible in one or more of three contexts, forming a triunism (or trinity, see paragraph 40 or typology)Kinship of God and man: An attempt to formulate a thorough-going Trinitarian theology, by J.J. Lanier, see ""Trinitarian Idealism,"" pp 135-147, esp. Syllabus II, p 136 of three potential interpretive references.Kinship of God and man: An attempt to formulate a thorough-going Trinitarian theology, by J.J. Lanier see ""Trinitarian Idealism,"" pp 135-147, esp. Syllabus II, p 136
1) First of all, none of the sources cited say anything about the three context ""forming a triunism or trinity"". None of them. Your claim that this is ""According to orthodox Jewish eschatology and Christian eschatology, and secular historians and scholars"" is completely unsubstantiated by the citations given.
2) Secondly, all three of the sources you cite are sources which you have been told repeatedly not to use because they are not WP:RS. One of them is predictably yet another link to the website on which your own work is advertised, with your idiosyncratic view. So you're not adhering to Wiki policy, and you're deliberately disobeying what you've been asked to do on many previous occasions. Your edit here is a typical example of your WP:SYNTH and WP:OR.
3) Thirdly, you haven't ever provided a single quotation from Bruce or Reed which shows they support your idiosyncratic ""triunisms"" idea. Your claim that they do is completely unsupported by the works of theirs which you cite, and is another example of your WP:SYNTH and WP:OR. You can't point to something they've written and claim that because you interpret it as supporting your view, that it supports your view. That's not how Wikipedia works. You need a third party citation from a WP:RS which interprets them as supporting your view.You have been told this repeatedly.~~~~

::I'm apparently coming in late to the party. WP:LGBT editors who have dealt with the perpetrator(s) before don't seem to be enthused to name who they are or much else. There have been apparently 2 mediation cabal cases involved. I don't know if they are about editors or articles. I don't think this is within the limited scope of the COI noticeboard. It's going to take someone to read every source used in these articles and argue every sentence about how the sources are being misused to prove something the sources don't actually say. I found out about this a couple nights ago, and I'm honestly anticipating this taking a year or so and going to ArbCom.

It depends on how it's used. If it's used to source something like a date or something tangential to the subject (like say a date William the Conqueror took the throne in Ealdred's article) it's probably okay. Specialist encyclopedias (like the ODNB or a chemical handbook) are a different story, but generally, you shouldn't cite a generalist encyclopedia more than once or twice for general overview information. - Talk | toxic | en |

Second AfD question
How does one create a second AfD page? Viable Vision was recently deleted per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Viable Vision, but someone recreated it. Then it was nominated for speedy, which was changed to prod, which was contested on the talk page with no edits to the article. Since someone seems to think it should be kept, I started its AfD, only that leads to its old page...I know there's a way to fix that, but I don't know how... | toxic | en |

That's not an explanation; that's you saying ""I think everything's fine now"" when the guy broke a 0RR and showed no sign of changing his behaviour, so he got blocked for it.

What if we change the current opening paragraph to read
""Natalee Ann Holloway (born October 21, 1986), disappeared on May 30, 2005 during a high school graduation trip in Aruba, a Caribbean country that is part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Born in Clinton, Mississippi and most recently from Mountain Brook, Alabama, Holloway graduated from Mountain Brook High School just days before the trip to Aruba. The disappearance generated a media sensation in the United States and in the Netherlands.""?
This would avoid the question of ""is/was"" and still get across the same points. The recent wording seems awkward. - talk " | toxic | en |

Defacing compliant sigs
This edit has been partially reverted as it changed two users' compliant signatures on a project page without prior discussion with the users. Since the only apparent motivation for your edit is to supplant WP:SIG#Customizing your signature (an official guideline) with your personal preferences, this constitutes vandalism, and this response constitutes a warning. Please do not alter others' presentations of data without cause, in violation of WP:POINT, creating the very squabbles you claim to wish to avoid in favor of actually writing an encyclopedia.
Well, ""Vandalism is any addition, deletion, or change to content made in a deliberate attempt to reduce the quality of the encyclopedia."" I don't see Tony's edits as vandalism (even in an extended sense), though the last few seemed to have a bit of spite and muse to them, which I don't like.
If any of my edits have given the impression of spite that was an error. I am aware of no spite. I only seek to improve the encyclopedia.
I don't think you quite understand. Any discussion can be improved by refactoring. This will inevitably involve, as a desired end product, reduction of noise, the most obvious of which is unnecessary content in signatures, ""compliant"" (whatever that might mean) or not. Discussions are about, believe it or not, the exchange of information, not the repeated depositing of random graffiti on pages devoted to discussion of a subject not related to that graffiti.
I'm running out of polite ways to say ""you are behaving in an incredibly stupid manner; please reconsider your approach to Wikipedia."" -Tony Sidaway
Hey, Tony, per our Wikien-L discussion... if you're pissing people off seriously when you do it, knock off doing it. The cure is worse than the illness, when you piss them off.
Tony has more guts than I do...I am constantly tempted to help save server lag by ""fixing"" signatures.
I'm not saying they're not annoying. But I am saying, and have said (with a chorus of agreements, but not unanimity) on Wikien-L that the consequences of getting people angry by refactoring sigs in a manner they believe is abusive is worse than the consequences of leaving the sigs as is. There's been discussion about a signature size limit, which I support, in some form or another. But the side effects of refactoring a bunch of random people's sigs are that they're percieving it as abuse by Tony, not as a cleanup effort, and reasonable people should always think twice if people complain that they're being abusive.
The proper solution to this has to either be Tony being a lot more polite about the refactoring (for example, telling people on their talk pages, nicely asking them to change, ec), or for there to be a policy change that limits sig size so there's no question as to whether the refactor is ""ok"" or not. Tony irritating people when he's acting fully in compliance with policy is acceptable to me. Tony irritating or abusing people when policy has gotten vague on a point, is not.
Please stop defacing users' signatures when they are clearly in compliance with WP:SIG. Willful and intentional violation of WP:POINT is''' vandalism and may result in a block from editing Wikipedia. Kirk talk to me " | toxic | en |

Comment The title of the article as it is right now is inappropriate because it's not the only alien creature in the Alien franchise especially with the release of Prometheus. The title was also less than desirable because of how wordy it was. The suggested rename is inappropriate however for the reasons listed above. I suggest, Xenomorph (Alien franchise). Seems about as appropriate and accurate as it's going to get until we get an official name for these creatures (if we ever get an official name which we probably won't). | toxic | en |

==Speedy deletion of ""Clint Novak""==
A page you created, Clint Novak, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

YAWN! Who says it is just an ""opinion"". You? Have you done a personal research in about 5000 books, or more?

I inform you that about 5000 books or more (vs. 0) makes the claim verifiable (read here).
BTW, are you so sure to be born in SPLIT? Your mum says so, but it just her opinion. I would write in your page ""according to Direktor's mum, he was born in Split. But the ""opinion"" that D. was born in Messina, shall be inserted as well.;-)

I'm trying to tell you that the group of editors (lead by Hilo) are subverting policy and process with their actions. Why aren't you listening? The tactic of creating false 'no consensus' through spamming and irrelevant posts is causing a complete block of any attempt to improve football related articles. For example, the recent RFM for Sydney Derby which got shut down because of opposition spamming irrelevant comments, for example by a user who claimed the entire RFM was invalid because they didn't think the article should exist in the first place! You're merely playing into their hands by blocking people trying to improve wikipedia. | toxic | en |

Moreover, I read in today's news that Tbilisi mayor Ubilava wants to bring back all the named of Tbilisi streets of 19th century. Thats a very good idea. In that case probably former Shahumyan street in Havlabar will be renamed and will not be Ketevan Samebuli street. Lots of other kartulocized streets will lose their names as well. They will have Russian and Armenian names. But will Ubilava rename Tbilisi as well, back to the version of 19th century? | toxic | en |

In hist book ""Svitjod resor till Sveriges ursprung"" (1998) about the Svear, Mats G.

Possibly, this should be extended to be a discussion of navigation articles within mainspace. Taking from 's post on dbachmann's talk page, I can see broadening this to include indexes and lists of X topics. In my opinion, glossaries, timelines, and year articles may be useful for navigation, but they also have the capability to become complete articles used for purposes other than navigation; I don't see outlines, indexes, and Lists of X topics articles as being able to be more than a navigational aid.
