What is the proper form for this statement? "Since both parents worked XXX days per week, XXX was often responsible for (child care)." OR: "Because both parents worked XXX days per week.." OR: "As both parents worked XXX days per week.."


 * Maybe 'Due to X's parents working X days a week, X was often responsible for the childcare of his/her older/younger sibling [insert name]' Zindor (talk) 21:31, 2 June 2022 (UTC)


 * , all three of your alternatives are fine. I wouldn't use Zindor's no doubt well-intentioned suggestion: its first half sounds somehow constipated to me (and conventionally calls for an apostrophe on "parents", an addition that would do nothing to aid the constipation); and we can infer from the context that the care is childcare (and not aftercare, Medicare, etc). -- Hoary (talk) 21:53, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
 * , thanks for the kind reassurance. I have made an additional edit below, explaining why I was so concerned. Best,
 * I debated that apostrophe for half a second and considered it archaic and superfluous. The 'since' in the first example can be read two different ways, one of which may be incorrect. The second example starts with 'because', an odd sentence starter, and the third sentence sounds too casual. My example might be 'constipated' but it allows for specific details and doesn't create ambiguity. Zindor (talk) 22:04, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
 * , I fear that we have to disagree. For me, "since" would only be ambiguous if it introduced one or more events (e.g. "Since both parents lost their jobs"), nothing seems even slightly odd about starting a sentence with "because", and nothing about the third option sounds particularly casual. -- Hoary (talk) 22:20, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
 * If you're worried about ambiguity, just turn the sentence the other way round: XXX was often responsible for child care because his/her parents worked XXX days per week. Elemimele (talk) 22:23, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
 * , an elegant solution! Thank you!
 * One would ordinarily precede "because" with either direct context or a clause. Example: ('X had to look after X because...'). You can read 'since' as meaning a) since the specific date the parents starting working that many days a week or b) just a general reference to the fact the parents work those days. 'As' seems casual to me but i admit it is the best option of the three. At the end of the day it's all English and doesn't really matter Zindor (talk) 22:34, 2 June 2022 (UTC)


 * The Guardian style guide, entry "as or since?", says: “As” is causal (...) “since” is temporal (...).

From the viewpoint of Wikipedia, the BBC is a highly respected English language news organization. So this article is a valuable source. We can use it to add information and refine some details. For instance, they discuss the relative wealth of the two families, which is very important. The dowry is discussed in detail. Also, Soorag tried to kill her on three occasions, not just two.

Premarital blood tests
I was married, in 1980, in North Carolina, and we "were required" to have a blood test. As a 21 yr old woman, I under the impression that the test was intended to detect incompatible Rh factors, which might affect children. Now I see that this was a sneaky method to screen my husband and me for STIs, like syphilis and gonorrhea. Which we didn't have.

As a lifelong NC resident, we always knew that people who wished to marry quickly, went over the border to South Carolina. My parents did so in 1952 (1st child, me in '59!) and also my younger cousin, @1985 (also not pregnant). I can't figure out why NC residents "ran away to elope" in SC, even so many decades apart. Can someone who is better at researching, help?

Killing of Andrew Brown Jr.
On April 21, 2021, Andrew Brown Jr., a 42-year-old black man, was fatally shot in the head by a deputy sheriff in Elizabeth City, North Carolina United States. At the time, the deputies were attempting to serve search and arrest warrants on a non-violent drug charge.

Dressed in tactical gear "City-owned video that was obtained by WAVY, a Virginia-based television station, showed that deputies with the Pasquotank County Sheriff’s Office were dressed in tactical gear before they pulled into Mr. Brown’s driveway. Seven deputies were initially placed on administrative leave." Quote

Mr. Brown’s family was told that no drugs or weapons had been retrieved from the property or the car, their lawyer said last week. And their legal team has not yet seen the search warrant that officials say was being executed at the time of the shooting.

An attorney, representing the family of Mr. Brown, said the family was told that no drugs or weapons had been found in Brown's car or on his property.

Commentary

Arrest warrant, only 2 family members allowed to watch

North Carolina law states that body camera video is not a public record, and may only be released by a court order.

"In dispatch audio from that day, first responders can be heard saying a man had gunshot wounds to the back. A copy of his death certificate says he died as a result of a gunshot wound of the head. According to the arrest warrant, issued on April 20 and obtained by CNN on Thursday, Brown "unlawfully, willfully, and feloniously did possess with the intent to sell and deliver a controlled substance, namely approximately three grams of cocaine." CNN QUOTE §§§Rewrite of above, for article§§§ The arrest warrant, issued on April 20 was for possession with intent to sell "approximately three grams of cocaine."

Recusal requested

"You and your office not only work with Sheriff Wooten and his deputies daily, your office physically resides in the Pasquotank County Sheriff's department," the attorneys wrote. "The conflict is well-defined." from CNN source, also: "There is no doubt all seven officers involved, including the three shooters, have worked directly with you and your office for years in prosecuting various cases," the family attorneys wrote in a letter to Womble on Wednesday."

On May 5, 2021 Brown family attorneys requested that DA Womble recuse himself. They stated that both the deputies involved, as well as Sheriff Wooten had worked directly with Womble, on a daily basis, for a number of years, in prosecuting cases. They noted that Womble's office physically resides in the Pasquotank County Sheriff's department and stated "The conflict is well-defined."

On May 5, 2021, attorneys for the Brown family requested that Womble recuse himself, as he works with Sheriff Wooten and his deputies and his office physically resides in the Sheriff's department. They stated "The conflict is well-defined."

Pallas's cat




On 8 February, I made a number of copyediting changes to Pallas's cat which were entirely reverted, with a edit summary stating that the article had a "GA and a DYK"., sorry, not so great at supplying Diffs on my iPad, but you get the drift. Is this intended to mean that the article is "perfect "? A day later, I was troubled by the assertion that the climate where this animal lives, varies from −50 °C (−58 °F) to 80 °C (176 °F). Another editor had previously questioned this assertion on the talkpage, as did I, and we were both informed that it "was sourced".. After squinting at said source, I saw that 80C was the temperature amplitude (range between lowest and highest temperature), and not the highest local air temperature. I am a bit appalled that anyone would think that a mammal could survive at 176 F, and shrug off inquiries, by saying "it is sourced".

I am more of a copy editor. I can rearrange sections, largest body part to smallest, or by chronology, and rewrite unfortunate prose, but I am not a research scientist. Although I do read references, and occasionally discover errors. Sorry I cannot assist you!

Comments
As much as it is sometimes true that Admins are just normal editors "with a mop", there is a power dynamic, of course. And I agree with User: SMcCandlish that it is very helpful to install an Admin-identifying script. I use a script that highlights (most) Admin names in highlighter yellow, which stands out, and is easy to spot. Only one or two admins have custom sigs that override this, and they are easy enough for me to remember, if needed.


 * Go to User scripts/List and look under For Editing ---> Discussion Oriented. I think I am using "Admin Highlighter....a rewrite of User:Amalthea/userhighlighter.js that was based on User:Ais523/adminrights.js.", but I changed the color from cyan to yellow. My old eyes require something bold, but SMcCandlish's favored script may be more appealing to you. When I began editing in 2016, I attempted to avail myself of all the bells & whistles that I could comprehend. Anyway, the Admin Highlighter saves a great deal of time, versus checking editor's user pages to see "who's who", which was what I did in the beginning!

Thanks for keeping us informed about your husband's progress. Here is info regarding iPad predictive text and Administrator highlighting scripts, that you can read at your leisure. User:Tribe of Tiger/sandbox4. I sincerely wish I lived close enough to you, wherever you are, to bring you a "covered dish" and assist with dog walking. Years ago, I worked with a woman who had experienced a detached retina, despite the fact that she never engaged in any sort of extreme sports or (sports of any kind).

Thanks for this confirmation. In 2018, while working on bare urls and archiving, I made a few GF errors regarding some atypical references. See my talkpage: and. If I had not been able to access my talkpage (or warnings, if things had gotten to that point), I would have made a disaster out of a good editor's work, and quite possibly have been blocked, as the only way to stop my unintended destruction! But, I was aware that I had a talkpage, communicated with my fellow editor, and all was well! Perhaps this exemplifies what could have gone wrong, if I had been a "mobile-only" editor. The lack of a proper mobile notification system is quite discouraging.

An apology....
My original comment:

Perhaps it seems weird to you, but please consider the importance of some of your other exact words: "So, someone chose the username "SithJarJar666" (this is StarWars-speak for "attention, I am going to fuck around on your wiki")"  Does my username speak of a dangerous and vicious predator, or a house cat who comforted a poet? I dislike the characterization of our usernames. In my country, people have been treated with prejudice, because of their names, (or their skin color). I implore others to address an editor's actions, and only their actions, not judge them by their usernames.[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:SithJarJar666&oldid=995088845]

Followed by: "I would encourage anyone equating my comments with prejudice based on ski color to fuck right off. --Floquenbeam (talk) 17:50, 21 December 2020 (UTC)"[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:SithJarJar666&oldid=995552507]

Next: "I just got equated with being a racist; it's not really a stretch to be offended by that. I'm muting you and Tribe of Tiger, and won't participate here further regardless of pings, except to say that I won't block you if you aren't disruptive; I will block you if you are. --Floquenbeam (talk) 18:39, 21 December 2020 (UTC) [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:SithJarJar666&direction=next&oldid=995558994]

My apology:

I am very sorry that my comments at Sithjarjar's talkpage have offended you. I was defining prejudice, as I have seen it, and following a train of thought concerning the word. Prejudice is the act of pre-judging others, based on a superficial visual or word-related attribute. Although I disagree with your original comments, and their characterization of a username, it certainly was not my intention to insult you, nor to equate you with a racist. I am rather appalled that you chose to address four parenthetical words "(or their skin color)" of my two paragraph commentary. My definition of prejudice was a general definition, not a personal indictment of one person.

Floquenbeam, I followed your actions (and those of others) last year during the controversy regarding the WMF and Fram. The concerted actions of Admins like you, helped to turn the tide by asserting EN-WP independence from unfair actions by the WMF. You chose to make a sacrifice, based on principle, and I respected your stance.

Despite your statement: "I would encourage anyone equating my comments with prejudice based on ski color to fuck right off",, and your decision to "mute" my pings, I am posting a sincere apology, here on your talkpage. I must also support this link on your talk: User talk:Iridescent#Reply, having slept on it. We are all under unusual stress. I am truly sorry to have offended you. Sincerely,

Jaguar
January 2018, lede

The jaguar has an exceptionally powerful bite, even relative to the other big cats. This allows it to pierce the shells of armored reptiles and to employ an unusual killing method: it bites directly through the skull of prey between the ears to deliver a fatal bite to the brain.

Present information

Its bite force allows it to pierce the shells of armored reptiles and turtles. It bites into the throat of South American tapir (Tapirus terrestris) and other large prey until the victim suffocates. It kills capybara by piercing its canine teeth through the temporal bones of the capybara's skull, breaking its zygomatic arch and mandible and penetrating its brain, often through the ears. This may be an adaptation to "cracking open" turtle shells; armored reptiles may have formed an abundant prey base for the jaguar following the late Pleistocene extinctions. It has been reported that an individual jaguar can drag an 800 lb bull 25 ft in its jaws and pulverize the heaviest bones.

From 2006 FA version, lede

The jaguar has developed an exceptionally powerful bite, even relative to the other big cats. This allows it to pierce the shells of armoured reptiles and to employ an unusual killing method with mammals: it bites directly through the skull of prey between the ears to deliver a fatal blow to the brain.

Drafts, commentary at ANI

 * if other patrollers are also doing the same thing, and similarly refuse to stop or even to discuss this part of the requirements, then maybe they should become subject to the same limitations. Or, if we're not going to enforce this requirement when patrollers are found to be repeatedly and blatantly violating it, then there is no requirement, and we should remove it from what we tell editors about how draftification works, and accept that anyone who starts trying to create new articles is likely to be bitten in this way. I create many new articles but have already long since given up on trying to craft new articles using the Wikipedia editor, because I don't want to go on for what may sometimes be more than an hour without saving and I don't want to deal with patrollers interfering before I'm done. Instead I create the article source offline with a text editor without preview, don't upload until it is more or less complete, and only then start polishing the issues that show up in preview. Is that what we want to tell all our new editors to do? (And don't tell me that's what drafts are for. Drafts are for being a honeypot for spammers to keep their content out of mainspace. Good-faith new editors should be warned never to use drafts because their drafts will be kept out of mainspace with picky excuses that would never fly in an AfD and then they will be deleted after six months. Which is a fine thing to do to spam but a shabby way to treat good-faith new editors.) —David Eppstein (talk) 07:59, 25 October 2020 (UTC)

As we are having a pleasant time editing at Ingrid Bergman, I strolled over to your User Page, to read all about you.

Conflict Resolution, wise words
Comment by L at Ani


 * Was this really as concisely as you can? Given your, how would you rate your own approach to conflict resolution here? Did you adhere to, or stray from, the basic principles of conflict resolution? Did you focus on the problem, or on the people? Did you do more reading (listening) or writing (talking)? Did you validate others' points of view, or dismiss them? Did you identify shared interests, or only your own? Did you propose solutions that everyone can say yes to, or did you approach it as a zero-sum game? These were rhetorical questions. It won't. Your responses to the editors who engaged above will not attract more participation in this thread, other than from people like me pointing out with a healthy dose of snark that you have truly bungled your request for assistance. Though this trainwreck of a thread might be fouled beyond repair, should the problem you're having continue, you might try posting here again in the future, but next time, put to use those decades of experience in conflict resolution and present the complaint in a way that actually makes volunteers feel invited and welcome to help. Good luck. Le

I am doing my own research so I'm not trying to get an essay out of anyone I just think it would be pretty dope if I could put in my essay that I actually asked the community and got feedback. :)

 * Hello IP editor. Welcome to the Teahouse, and what an exciting question and a brilliant essay to write! You are clearly able to Google the general topic, so I won't insult your intelligence by suggesting you go off and do that. But, boy, there are so many ways that Wikipedia is a valuable research tool, and to so many different groups of individuals. In fact, there has been a lot of serious academic research done on Wikipedia (some of it listed here, or the social aspects of why people contribute. This Teahouse itself has been the subject of a number of research papers)
 * But as a 'direct' tool to aid research I can do no better than embed this video which I produced a few years ago. At 6 minutes 30 seconds in you'll find a cut down version of a much longer interview I filmed, showing how Cambridge University's Sanger Institute chose to share research and knowledge on the Human Genome Project on Wikipedia, for the simple reason that it gave free, unrestricted, worldwide access to scientific knowledge which might not otherwise have been available to scientific institutions in some poorer countries. I found that one of the best reasons why Wikipedia should exist!
 * On a more general level, you might like to look at Researching with Wikipedia and Research, Academic studies about Wikipedia. I'll end of the simplest note of all by saying that Wikipedia never recommends anyone directly use Wikipedia as a Reliable Source. Yes, it's a great starting point and 'look-up' tool, but the oft-overlooked gem in almost every one of our 6,000,000+ articles here is the 'References' section. It's a collation of excellent sources, distilled and presented allow verification of what is in each article, and it enable's anyone to go off and do their own research into almost any topic. Good luck with your essay, and maybe you'll consider joining up and contributing here yourself someday soon. Regards from the UK, Nick Moyes (talk) 19:00, 5 September 2020 (UTC)


 * This guy has some thoughts on that. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 19:50, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi, IP. When I taught, I would not allow Wikipedia as a source, and still wouldn't. Not due to accuracy issues (in hard science and medicine, studies have shown Wikipedia is far more accurate than other encyclopedias), but due to the dynamic nature of Wikipedia. Ironically, that's the reason for our accuracy in the areas we're most accurate. In any areas where promotion is an issue, we are very weak. Promotional editing is rampant on Wikipedia and under the rules the Wikimedia Foundation forces on us, we're completely ineffective at combating it, despite ridiculous amounts of editor time expended on trying.

, your concept was something that occurred to me back when I first started editing. It seemed to me that one could consult the online refs present in various WP articles, and then use them to write an "original" essay, paper, etc. For people who did not have access to libraries, but had internet access, the online sources would be an excellent source of information. No need to "cite WP", (which is an encyclopedia, in any case, as User:John from Idegon seems to note), as a source, when one can read and then cite the original sources, as provided in the Reference sections of various articles. I will read the info you have provided, thanks!

I will just add one of my favorite quotes, from the great Leander Hamilton McCormick: One should beware of those who cannot or will not laugh when others are merry, for if not mentally defective they are spiteful, selfish or abnormally conceited ... Great men of all nations and of all times have possessed a keen appreciation of the ridiculous, as wisdom and wit are closely allied. (Not that I'm calling any of our esteemed fellow editors mentally defective or selfish or conceited, of course.) EEng 07:27, 23 August 2020 (UTC)

Now you know the truth. Properly sourced, etc. of course, and public domain.

Info for captions Your first question: Not "" but instead "". Your second: the section "Boy carrying calf" simply doesn't ask for any image to be displayed, or anyway doesn't do so in any valid way. By "Penn Museum Statuary - E13405 | Collections - Penn Museum E13405, H 3.17cm, L 7.62cm, W 1.91cm", are you perhaps attempting to have a file hosted by penn.museum displayed? If so, this won't work: no file external to Wikimedia will be displayed. -- Hoary (talk) 08:27, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

The price of fame
.....It's a bit hard to create a new article about someone based totally upon negative coverage they might be receiving (unless the subject is involved in a major and widely reported criminal case, etc.) if that's the only claim being made for their Wikipedia notability, but it's not as hard to add negative coverage about someone to an already existing article if their Wikipedia notability has been establsihed for other reasons. So, it might actually better for some individuals to not have Wikipedia articles created about them since they cannot really use it to promote their careers or activities, they have no real editorial control over the content of the articles, and they might find things that they don't want people to know about showing up in the article. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:40, 12 August 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks man for responding to a serious issue. My believe and why i used all my day strength in editing that draft is that he is a main character of a TV show but he is not notable i will note that and try all my possible best in making it up. But if not been good again i will keep it for future purposes.Tbiw (talk) 05:28, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * , agreeing with User:Marchjuly. Some years ago when I started editing, there was an issue. A person (local-level US govermt official, with a small non-profit) had been trying, for years, to get "their own WP article". Finally, enough sources (news stories) accumulated over time, and the article was written. All was well for a time, until the person was charged & convicted of a crime, which was, of course, reflected in the article. As a result, they desperately wanted the (formerly) greatly desired article to be removed. Lots of drama. WP level fame may not be such a good thing, as it can be a double-edged sword. Something to keep in mind. Even, or especially, if you "admire" a person & their good work, a WP article can intrude on their privacy. Please consider that you may NOT be doing them a favor.

re notable person article: resume considered a reliable source, better way to list articles subject has written
Hello, I am working on a notable person article in my sandbox. Aside from brief bios online with the subject's articles mentioning his teaching experience, some of which I would like to mention in the article, the only place that lists his academic credits is a self published resume at Academia.edu - Share research Is this considered a reliable source? I have been combing the reliable source help sections and it seems like I could use this but want to check. (Ironically, after all my research for this, he just put up a personal website which probably has this information.  I don't even want to go check it at this point because it is self published.)

Also, I have listed some articles from the different genres of his writing, showing his range. I think there may be a smoother way of illustrating this so if you have any suggestions on this, as well as the entire article, it would be appreciated. Ogmany Ogmany (talk) 22:46, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Hello, . I'm sorry, but it sounds to me as if the subject is by definition not notable. Wikipedia is essentially uninterested in anything said or published by the subject, or their associates. If you cannot find published material about him that is wholly independent of him, then there is literally nothing that you can put in the article. --ColinFine (talk) 23:36, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * , I have read through your draft. Given that his general notability seems well-supported by the NYT, Frontline, PBS, Daily Beast, etc., I think you are within policy to use less exalted sources to support the teaching, etc. My understanding is that even a CV may be used as a reference, but not as a claim to notability. So you should be good to go! Good article, btw. Regards,  Tribe of Tiger Let's Purrfect!  01:24, 8 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you Tribe of Tiger. Very much appreciated. Ogmany (talk) 03:45, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
