I left weird looking messages to users: they included template, one user was addressed by name and others were addressed as "User". Proposed fix: I think if i specified custom message but did not fill it in, i should get asked to fill it in before submitting my review. (Also, in edit summary to user talk page, the section name should be included so i can click it in edit history page, and go directly to that section.) Hope it makes sense... Thanks a lot. [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 12:43, 22 March 2026 (UTC) :@[[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]]: The issue with the {{{user}}} parameter showing as resolved has been fixed. I recently made some modifications to the notification system, and I guess I introduced that bug during the process. Sorry about that. :Regarding the template being used when the custom comment is empty: that was intentional, as otherwise an empty section would be created on the user's talk page. I will also add a check so that if the custom comment is empty, the reviewer cannot submit the review. -- [[User:Asked42|Asked42]] ([[User talk:Asked42|talk]]) 13:17, 22 March 2026 (UTC) ::Thanks Asked42, such a check would be helpful I think. :) [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 13:22, 22 March 2026 (UTC) == "Incorrectly flagged articles" == At [[Wikinews:Newsroom]], there is a section labeled "Incorrectly flagged articles". This section appears to be a mess. There are four retracted older articles in there, which are supposedly "incorrectly" flagged, but it is unknown what was incorrect about the flagging of those articles. Two of those articles are from 2013, one from 2021, and the other from 2025, so if anything is supposed to be done about them, it should be done already. However, the fifth article is [[Two Cuba-bound aid boats located by Mexican Navy after going missing]], an article which is currently {{tl|under review}}. It hasn't been "flagged" either correctly or incorrectly but is being reviewed. It ought to be listed in the "Submitted for peer review" section (where it does not currently appear) and omitted from "Incorrectly flagged articles". I asked a somewhat similar question at [[Wikinews:Water cooler/miscellaneous/archives/2025/October]] but the problem doesn't appear to have been resolved. -- [[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 03:05, 30 March 2026 (UTC) : In the case of the article [[Two Cuba-bound aid boats located by Mexican Navy after going missing]], it has been marked stable ("flagged" in FlaggedRevs) in error, before being published. This can happen if a reviewer "sights" or approves changes before the article is published, which is relatively easy to accidentally do. [[User:Bawolff/sandbox/powerFlag]] no longer seems to work to de-flag articles in FlaggedRevs. But that article should disappear from the list once it's published or deleted as abandoned. : The other issue is a lack of consensus or documentation on exactly how to retract an article.[[User:Michael.C.Wright|Michael.C.Wright]] (^{[[User_talk:Michael.C.Wright|Talk]]}/_{[[User:Michael.C.Wright/reviewer|Reviewer]]}) 07:02, 30 March 2026 (UTC) : I started [[Wikinews:Retraction policy]] in January in an attempt to get the process documented.

'''The Change:'''<br /> Currently, many templates pull electoral maps from Wikidata using the property [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]], combined with the qualifier [[:d:Property:P180|P180]]: [[:d:Q19571328|Q19571328]]. We are migrating this data (across roughly 4,000 items) to a newly created, dedicated property: '''[[:d:Property:P14226|P14226]]'''. '''What You Need To Do:'''<br /> To ensure your templates and infoboxes do not break or lose their maps, please update your local code to fetch data from [[:d:Property:P14226|P14226]] instead of the old [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]] + [[:d:Property:P180|P180]] structure. A [[m:Wikidata/Property Migration: P1846 to P14226/List|list of pages]] was generated using Wikimedia Global Search. '''Deadline:'''<br /> We are temporarily retaining the old data on [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]] to allow for a smooth transition. However, to complete the data cleanup on Wikidata, the old [[:d:Property:P1846|P1846]] statements will be removed after '''May 1, 2026'''. Please update your modules and templates before this date to prevent any disruption to your wiki's election articles. Let us know if you have any questions or need assistance with the query logic.

Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/News/2026/12|Translations]] are available. '''Updates for editors''' * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature, also known as [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror 6]], has been used for wikitext syntax highlighting since November 2024. It will be promoted out of beta by May 2026 in order to bring improvements and new [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror#Features|features]] to all editors who use the standard syntax highlighter. If you have any questions or concerns about promoting the feature out of beta, [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help talk:Extension:CodeMirror|please share]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T259059] * Some changes to local user groups are performed by stewards on Meta-Wiki and logged there only. Now, interwiki rights changes will be logged both on Meta-Wiki and the wiki of the target user to make it easier to access a full record of user's rights changes on a local wiki. Past log entries for such changes will be backfilled in the coming weeks. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T6055] * On wikis using [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Flagged Revisions|Flagged Revisions]], the number of pending changes shown on [[{{#Special:PendingChanges}}]] previously counted pages which were no longer pending review, because they have been removed from the system without being reviewed, e.g. due to being deleted, moved to a different namespace, or due to wiki configuration changes. The count will be correct now. On some wikis the number shown will be much smaller than before. There should be no change to the list of pages itself. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T413016] * Wikifunctions composition language has been rewritten, resulting in a new version of the language. This change aims to increase service stability by reducing the orchestrator's memory consumption. This rewrite also enables substantial latency reduction, code simplification, and better abstractions, which will open the door to later feature additions. Read more about [[f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-11|the changes]]. * Users can now sort search results alphabetically by page title. The update gives an additional option to finding pages more easily and quickly. Previously, results could be sorted by Edit date, Creation date, or Relevance. To use the new option, open 'Advanced Search' on the search results page and select 'Alphabetically' under 'Sorting Order'.

For example, the bug that prevented UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons from importing files from Flickr has now been fixed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419263] '''Updates for technical contributors''' * A new special page, [[{{#special:LintTemplateErrors}}]], has been created to list transcluded pages that are flagged as containing lint errors to help users discover them easily. The list is sorted by the number of transclusions with errors. For example: [[{{#special:LintTemplateErrors}}/night-mode-unaware-background-color]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T170874] * Users of the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help:Extension:CodeMirror|{{int:codemirror-beta-feature-title}}]] beta feature have been using [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] instead of [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeEditor|CodeEditor]] for syntax highlighting when editing JavaScript, CSS, JSON, Vue and Lua content pages, for some time now. Along with promoting CodeMirror 6 out of beta, the plan is to replace CodeEditor as the standard editor for these content models by May 2026. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Help talk:Extension:CodeMirror|Feedback or concerns are welcome]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419332] * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror|CodeMirror]] JavaScript modules will soon be upgraded to CodeMirror 6. Leading up to the upgrade, loading the <code dir=ltr>ext.CodeMirror</code> or <code dir=ltr>ext.CodeMirror.lib</code> modules from gadgets and user scripts was deprecated in July 2025. The use of the <code dir=ltr>ext.CodeMirror.switch</code> hook was also deprecated in March 2025. Contributors can now make their scripts or gadgets compatible with CodeMirror 6. See the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:CodeMirror#Gadgets and user scripts|migration guide]] for more information. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T373720] * The MediaWiki Interfaces team is expanding coverage of REST API module definitions to include [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/API:REST API/Extensions|extension APIs]]. REST API modules are groups of related endpoints that can be independently managed and versioned. Modules now exist for [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T414470 GrowthExperiments] and [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T419053 Wikifunctions] APIs. As we migrate extension APIs to this structure, documentation will move out of the main MediaWiki OpenAPI spec and REST Sandbox view, and will instead be accessible via module-specific options in the dropdown on the [https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RestSandbox REST Sandbox] (i.e., [[{{#Special:RestSandbox}}]], available on all wiki projects). * The [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto|Scribunto]] extension provides different pieces of information about the wiki where the module is being used via the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual|mw.site]] library. Starting last week, the library also provides a [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Scribunto/Lua reference manual#mw.site.wikiId|way]] of accessing the [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Manual:Wiki ID|wiki ID]] that can be used to facilitate cross-wiki module maintenance.

'''Weekly highlight''' * Wikimedia site users can now log in without a password using passkeys. This is a secure method supported by fingerprint, facial recognition, or PIN. With this change, all users who opt for passwordless login will find it easier, faster, and more secure to log in to their accounts using any device. The new passkey login option currently appears as an autofill suggestion in the username field. An additional [[phab:T417120|"Log in with passkey" button]] will soon be available for users who have already registered a passkey. This update will improve security and user experience. The [[c:File:Passwordless_login_screencast.webm|screen recording]] demonstrates the passwordless login process step by step. * [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Tech/Server switch|All wikis will be read-only]] for a few minutes on Wednesday, 25 March 2026 at [https://zonestamp.toolforge.org/1774450800 15:00 UTC]. This is for the datacenter server switchover backup tests, [[wikitech:Deployments/Yearly calendar|which happen twice a year]]. During the switchover, all Wikimedia website traffic is shifted from one primary data center to the backup data center to test availability and prevent service disruption even in emergencies. '''Updates for editors''' * Wikimedia site users can now export their notifications older than 5 years using a [[toolforge:echo-chamber|new Toolforge tool]]. This will ensure that users retain their important notifications and avoid them being lost based on the planned change to delete notifications older than 5 years, as previously announced. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T383948] * Wikipedia editors in Indonesian, Thai, Turkish, and Simple English now have access to Special:PersonalDashboard. This is an [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Moderator Tools/Dashboard|early version of an experience]] that introduces newer editors to patrolling workflows, making it easier for them to move from making edits to participating in more advanced moderation work on their project. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T402647] * The [[Special:Block]] now has two minor interface changes. Administrators can now easily perform indefinite blocks through a dedicated radio button in the expiry section. Also, choosing an indefinite expiry provides a different set of common reasons to select from, which can be changed at: [[MediaWiki:Ipbreason-indef-dropdown]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T401823] * Mobile editors [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#Logged-out|at several wikis]] can now see an improved logged-out edit warning, thanks to the recent updates from the Growth team. These changes released last week are part of ongoing efforts and tests to enhance [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments|account creation experience on mobile]] and then increase participation.

For example, the bug that prevented mobile web users from seeing the block information when affected by multiple blocks has been fixed. They can now see messages of all the blocks currently affecting them when they access Wikipedia. '''Updates for technical contributors''' * Images built using Toolforge will soon get the upgraded buildpacks version, bringing support for newer language versions and other upstream improvements and fixes. If you use Toolforge Build Service, review the recent [https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/cloud-announce@lists.wikimedia.org/thread/EMYTA32EV2V5SQ2JIEOD2CL66YFIZEKV/ cloud-announce email] and update your build configuration as necessary to ensure your tools are compatible.

'''Weekly highlight''' * The Beta version of [[abstract:|Abstract Wikipedia]] a new Wikimedia project which is language-independent, was launched last week. The project allows communities to build Wikipedia articles in their native language, which can be readily accessed by other users in their own languages. The wiki is powered by instructions from Wikifunctions and also based on structured content from Wikidata. [[:f:Special:MyLanguage/Wikifunctions:Status updates/2026-03-26|Read more]]. '''Updates for editors''' * The Growth team is running an A/B test to evaluate a clearer, more user-friendly message that promotes account creation on wikis. Currently when logged-out mobile users begin editing, they see a jarring warning message that can feel abrupt and discouraging. This also presents temporary account editing as the default rather than encouraging account creation. The test is running on ten Wikipedias, including Arabic, French, Spanish and German. [[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Contributors/Account Creation Experiments#2.

The discussion focuses on improving how users access editing tools when they tap "Edit".

Centralised 'one wiki somewhere' model can be confusing. Most real news papers pay someone to deliver their output to multiple channels (youtube, paper delivery to homes, newsletters to email, rss). These were not leveraged here. Even though things like Mastodon existed. :I think one open source project had encouraged everyone to have a fork of it in GitHub, so they can experiment and merge later if their changes were substantial and successful. Perhaps someone could provide web hosting and ask everyone to create a fork if they wanted to maintain it and implement some ideas how to setup the workflow. These could possibly go into subdomains like 'Username-copy.wikinews.org' or 'Something-region-Username.wikinews.org'. Someone would need to go around and collect content from forks into their own fork. This could increase innovation for software and/or activate regional groups. While also making it more fragmented -- or not really, since content licence allows derivative works and re distribution, so someone could play around with how to present the same content to users differently. I think this could be inevitable. :Connections with universities did not start beyond one university. This could be improved. :Just a few thoughts on perspective in light of what you wrote above. :(Wikinews helped me pass IELTS and TOEFL reading/writing components to 100%, and get a visa to Australia and cope with English language content in first year at uni. That was my impression.) :Have a great day.

When an image is present in a story, no matter how good the prose the image can make or break a reader's impression. A good Wikinews reporter will contemplate aspects of their story, and find free media (or fair use) to illustrate their story. For instance, on Wikipedia there is an article about [[w:Mark Barnes|Mark Barnes]], a notable attorney some readers might find uninteresting. But on that page you can see how media can be used to make a subject dynamic; for instance, a letter written by the subject's students and a portrait of his ancestor, Daniel Boone, are incorporated. Look for the interesting, relevant angle when you choose media. ==Where to find images== ;Wikimedia Commons Your first stop for stock photos. The easiest way of finding freely licensed images is to [[commons:Special:Search|search the Wikimedia Commons project]]. All images on Commons are freely licensed and can be used in articles as if they are hosted locally. ;Wikipedia as a photo Sherpa Another option is to look at any relevant [[w:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] articles and see if any appropriate images are available there but note that not all images on Wikipedia are freely licensed and if that is the case then their use here must also comply with fair use. ''In theory'' Wikipedia editors have come to consensus as to the best photos to illustrate a topic, although the surest judgment is to search the Commons. Still, Wikipedia, or another Wikimedia Foundation project, may be organized in a manner that makes it easy to find a good stock photo for a news article you can freely use. If a freely licensed image still cannot be located then it may be possible to find one on an external website which you can upload to Commons. It is important that it is explicitly stated that the image is released under a compatible licence, see [[commons:Commons:Licensing|Commons:Licensing]] for information. There are likely to be exceptions but the websites listed below are known to host some freely licensed image files. If after searching a freely licensed image cannot be located then consider asking a photographer to release an image under a compatible licence, see [[w:Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission]] for advice on doing this. ;If all else fails, try theses sites for free media: *[http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=&l=commderiv&ss=0&ct=0 Flickr], note that only the Attribution (CC-BY) and the Attribution ShareAlike (CC-BY-SA) licences are permitted *[http://www.archives.gov/ National Archives], it may take some hunting, but it's all free *[http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/imagegallery/index.html NASA Images] all free, space, sun, moons, stars *[http://www.usa.gov/Topics/Graphics.shtml US Government] archive of free photos; seems like a lot on offer of random things few people need.

Add a link to the original hearing as external link, or use it as a source. <br><br> == Economy and business == {{see also|Category:Economy and business}} ===<center>International organizations data</center>=== *[http://unstats.un.org/unsd/economic_main.htm United Nations Statistics Division] - Economic statistics *[http://www.wto.org/english/res_e/statis_e/statis_e.htm World Trade Organization] statistics and resources on international trade *[http://web.worldbank.org/WBSITE/EXTERNAL/DATASTATISTICS/0,,menuPK:232599~pagePK:64133170~piPK:64133498~theSitePK:239419,00.html World Bank] Data and statistics *[http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/portal/page?_pageid=1090,30070682,1090_33076576&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL European Union's Eurostat] *[http://www.imf.org/external/country/index.htm International Monetary Fund] Country Statistics ===<center>Government business/economic resources</center>=== *[http://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml US Securities and Exchange Commission] online company filings *[http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/pubpress/index.html US Executive Office of Management and Budget] news releases *[http://www.fsa.gov.uk/pages/index.shtml UK Financial Services Authority], governmental body regulates financial services *[http://www.stats.gov.cn/english/ National Bureau of Statistics], Chinese government's English site *[http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/com/speeches/ United States Patent and Trademark Office] Press Releases ===<center>News media</center>=== *[http://finance.yahoo.com Yahoo!

When an image is present in a story, no matter how good the prose the image can make or break a reader's impression. A good Wikinews reporter will contemplate aspects of their story, and find free media (or fair use) to illustrate their story. For instance, on Wikipedia there is an article about [[w:Mark Barnes|Mark Barnes]], a notable attorney some readers might find uninteresting. But on that page you can see how media can be used to make a subject dynamic; for instance, a letter written by the subject's students and a portrait of his ancestor, Daniel Boone, are incorporated. Look for the interesting, relevant angle when you choose media. ==Where to find images== ;Wikimedia Commons Your first stop for stock photos. The easiest way of finding freely licensed images is to [[commons:Special:Search|search the Wikimedia Commons project]]. All images on Commons are freely licensed and can be used in articles as if they are hosted locally. ;Wikipedia as a photo Sherpa Another option is to look at any relevant [[w:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] articles and see if any appropriate images are available there but note that not all images on Wikipedia are freely licensed and if that is the case then their use here must also comply with fair use. ''In theory'' Wikipedia editors have come to consensus as to the best photos to illustrate a topic, although the surest judgment is to search the Commons. Still, Wikipedia, or another Wikimedia Foundation project, may be organized in a manner that makes it easy to find a good stock photo for a news article you can freely use. If a freely licensed image still cannot be located then it may be possible to find one on an external website which you can upload to Commons. It is important that it is explicitly stated that the image is released under a compatible licence, see [[commons:Commons:Licensing|Commons:Licensing]] for information. There are likely to be exceptions but the websites listed below are known to host some freely licensed image files. If after searching a freely licensed image cannot be located then consider asking a photographer to release an image under a compatible licence, see [[w:Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission]] for advice on doing this. ;If all else fails, try theses sites for free media: *[http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=&l=commderiv&ss=0&ct=0 Flickr], note that only the Attribution (CC-BY) and the Attribution ShareAlike (CC-BY-SA) licences are permitted *[http://www.archives.gov/ National Archives], it may take some hunting, but it's all free *[http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/imagegallery/index.html NASA Images] all free, space, sun, moons, stars *[http://www.usa.gov/Topics/Graphics.shtml US Government] archive of free photos; seems like a lot on offer of random things few people need.

It was raised prior to publication and should have been fully resolved during review. :::::::: I do appreciate you stepping back from reviews.

I have been posting in various places because in the time I've been here, every single non-original reporting article I've written has become stale - in one case, because it was not reviewed in a timely manner, I was asked to update it, and then THAT was not reviewed in a timely manner, so again it was marked stale. I've seen this happen to other peoples' articles as well. I don't think this is a good look, and I also think it's a waste of peoples' effort and serves no purpose. Anyway, if you'd like to see my attempts at reform of this process that is not working at all, I've made a few scattered comments at [[https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:Water_cooler/proposals]] and a thread at [[Wikinews talk:Newsworthiness]] if you'd be interested in participating.

The article was published. Congratulations. For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below. 1) Specified date in first paragraph more clearly, as it is a Friday today, my local time anyway, but event was last week. 2) Cleaned up a messy paragraph at the end of the page The following review comments were added: 1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark> 2) The article contains the following paragraph: ''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.'' This is garbage because: a) It is too long b) it has " ��" in between sentences c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..." <mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form. PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT COMPLETED ARTICLES. THIS IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT.</mark> Thank you.

The following edits were made by reviewer: 1) Article body written in past tense 2) External links moved to a section called 'External links' 3) Rearranged to specify the date in the first paragraph, see [[WN:IP|inverted pyramid]] Please keep these comments in mind when writing or editing articles in the future. The following notes were left by reviewer: 1) The previous review raised concern about bias in words such as 'many' in 'many commenters' or 'illegal in many ways', it was disappointing that this was not addressed at time of submitting for review. 2) Article was written on time and submitted on Dec22, which is not excellent for a Dec19 event, but is good. It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass. 3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates? Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred. Many thanks. -- [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] 20:47, 25 December 2025 (UTC) :Also, the image licensing is unclear.

I think my article is best located at [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of crimes against humanity]] rather than [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of inciting hatred]] because the actual charge, the actual crime, and the actual conviction all fall under the section of the {{w|Criminal Code of Finland}} that concerns {{w|crimes against humanity}}. Moreover, there is a particular focus from several sources on the fact that Räsänen and Pohjola were convicted under the section of the Criminal Code of Finland that concerns crimes against humanity. [[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 00:56, 28 March 2026 (UTC) *I would note that one of the cited sources, [https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/26/finnish-mp-paivi-rasanen-convicted-homosexuality-developmental-disorder this article from The Guardian], begins with the sentence, "A Finnish member of parliament has been found guilty by the country’s supreme court of inciting hatred after claiming that homosexuality was a 'developmental disorder', in a conviction that prompted criticism from far-right government ministers." That source doesn't even mention the term "crimes against humanity" at all. Another cited article from [https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paivi-rasanen-homosexuality-supreme-court-finland-b2946208.html The Independent] doesn't mention "crimes against humanity", either. I am also concerned that the use of the term "{{w|crimes against humanity}}" may be considered misleading as to the nature of the charges involved notwithstanding how the term is used in the Finnish Criminal Code which few English Wikinews readers may be familiar with. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 01:09, 28 March 2026 (UTC) **[[Talk:Supreme Court of Finland convicts Christians of crimes against the humanity of gays and lesbians in landmark ruling#Headline question|This discussion was continued here]]. --[[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 18:39, 28 March 2026 (UTC) == Published: [[Supreme Court of Finland makes crimes against humanity convictions in landmark ruling]] (April 6) == Hi, all, I am sending this message to all contributors to the article.

The article was published. Congratulations. For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below. 1) Specified date in first paragraph more clearly, as it is a Friday today, my local time anyway, but event was last week. 2) Cleaned up a messy paragraph at the end of the page The following review comments were added: 1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark> 2) The article contains the following paragraph: ''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.'' This is garbage because: a) It is too long b) it has " ��" in between sentences c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..." <mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form. PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT COMPLETED ARTICLES. THIS IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT.</mark> Thank you.

The following notes were left by reviewer: 1) The previous review raised concern about bias in words such as 'many' in 'many commenters' or 'illegal in many ways', it was disappointing that this was not addressed at time of submitting for review. 2) Article was written on time and submitted on Dec22, which is not excellent for a Dec19 event, but is good. It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass. 3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates? Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred.

Another cited article from [https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paivi-rasanen-homosexuality-supreme-court-finland-b2946208.html The Independent] doesn't mention "crimes against humanity", either. I am also concerned that the use of the term "{{w|crimes against humanity}}" may be considered misleading as to the nature of the charges involved notwithstanding how the term is used in the Finnish Criminal Code which few English Wikinews readers may be familiar with. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 01:09, 28 March 2026 (UTC) **[[Talk:Supreme Court of Finland convicts Christians of crimes against the humanity of gays and lesbians in landmark ruling#Headline question|This discussion was continued here]]. --[[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 18:39, 28 March 2026 (UTC) == Published: [[Supreme Court of Finland makes crimes against humanity convictions in landmark ruling]] (April 6) == Hi, all, I am sending this message to all contributors to the article.

I believe this has substantially improved in the last few days as the article has been revised. Thank you.

I have been posting in various places because in the time I've been here, every single non-original reporting article I've written has become stale - in one case, because it was not reviewed in a timely manner, I was asked to update it, and then THAT was not reviewed in a timely manner, so again it was marked stale. I've seen this happen to other peoples' articles as well. I don't think this is a good look, and I also think it's a waste of peoples' effort and serves no purpose. Anyway, if you'd like to see my attempts at reform of this process that is not working at all, I've made a few scattered comments at [[https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:Water_cooler/proposals]] and a thread at [[Wikinews talk:Newsworthiness]] if you'd be interested in participating.

The article was published. Congratulations. For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below. 1) Specified date in first paragraph more clearly, as it is a Friday today, my local time anyway, but event was last week. 2) Cleaned up a messy paragraph at the end of the page The following review comments were added: 1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark> 2) The article contains the following paragraph: ''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.'' This is garbage because: a) It is too long b) it has " ��" in between sentences c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..." <mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form.

The following notes were left by reviewer: 1) The previous review raised concern about bias in words such as 'many' in 'many commenters' or 'illegal in many ways', it was disappointing that this was not addressed at time of submitting for review. 2) Article was written on time and submitted on Dec22, which is not excellent for a Dec19 event, but is good. It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass. 3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates? Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred.

I think my article is best located at [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of crimes against humanity]] rather than [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of inciting hatred]] because the actual charge, the actual crime, and the actual conviction all fall under the section of the {{w|Criminal Code of Finland}} that concerns {{w|crimes against humanity}}. Moreover, there is a particular focus from several sources on the fact that Räsänen and Pohjola were convicted under the section of the Criminal Code of Finland that concerns crimes against humanity. [[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 00:56, 28 March 2026 (UTC) *I would note that one of the cited sources, [https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/26/finnish-mp-paivi-rasanen-convicted-homosexuality-developmental-disorder this article from The Guardian], begins with the sentence, "A Finnish member of parliament has been found guilty by the country’s supreme court of inciting hatred after claiming that homosexuality was a 'developmental disorder', in a conviction that prompted criticism from far-right government ministers." That source doesn't even mention the term "crimes against humanity" at all. Another cited article from [https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paivi-rasanen-homosexuality-supreme-court-finland-b2946208.html The Independent] doesn't mention "crimes against humanity", either. I am also concerned that the use of the term "{{w|crimes against humanity}}" may be considered misleading as to the nature of the charges involved notwithstanding how the term is used in the Finnish Criminal Code which few English Wikinews readers may be familiar with. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 01:09, 28 March 2026 (UTC) **[[Talk:Supreme Court of Finland convicts Christians of crimes against the humanity of gays and lesbians in landmark ruling#Headline question|This discussion was continued here]]. --[[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 18:39, 28 March 2026 (UTC) == Published: [[Supreme Court of Finland makes crimes against humanity convictions in landmark ruling]] (April 6) == Hi, all, I am sending this message to all contributors to the article.

The article was published. Congratulations. For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below. 1) Specified date in first paragraph more clearly, as it is a Friday today, my local time anyway, but event was last week. 2) Cleaned up a messy paragraph at the end of the page The following review comments were added: 1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark> 2) The article contains the following paragraph: ''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.'' This is garbage because: a) It is too long b) it has " ��" in between sentences c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..." <mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form.

It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass. 3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates? Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred. Many thanks. -- [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] 20:47, 25 December 2025 (UTC) :Also, the image licensing is unclear.

I think my article is best located at [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of crimes against humanity]] rather than [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of inciting hatred]] because the actual charge, the actual crime, and the actual conviction all fall under the section of the {{w|Criminal Code of Finland}} that concerns {{w|crimes against humanity}}.

That source doesn't even mention the term "crimes against humanity" at all. Another cited article from [https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paivi-rasanen-homosexuality-supreme-court-finland-b2946208.html The Independent] doesn't mention "crimes against humanity", either.

The article was published. Congratulations. For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below. 1) Specified date in first paragraph more clearly, as it is a Friday today, my local time anyway, but event was last week. 2) Cleaned up a messy paragraph at the end of the page The following review comments were added: 1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark> 2) The article contains the following paragraph: ''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.'' This is garbage because: a) It is too long b) it has " ��" in between sentences c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..." <mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form. PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT COMPLETED ARTICLES. THIS IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT.</mark> Thank you.

The following notes were left by reviewer: 1) The previous review raised concern about bias in words such as 'many' in 'many commenters' or 'illegal in many ways', it was disappointing that this was not addressed at time of submitting for review. 2) Article was written on time and submitted on Dec22, which is not excellent for a Dec19 event, but is good. It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass. 3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates? Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred.

I think my article is best located at [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of crimes against humanity]] rather than [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of inciting hatred]] because the actual charge, the actual crime, and the actual conviction all fall under the section of the {{w|Criminal Code of Finland}} that concerns {{w|crimes against humanity}}. Moreover, there is a particular focus from several sources on the fact that Räsänen and Pohjola were convicted under the section of the Criminal Code of Finland that concerns crimes against humanity. [[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 00:56, 28 March 2026 (UTC) *I would note that one of the cited sources, [https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/26/finnish-mp-paivi-rasanen-convicted-homosexuality-developmental-disorder this article from The Guardian], begins with the sentence, "A Finnish member of parliament has been found guilty by the country’s supreme court of inciting hatred after claiming that homosexuality was a 'developmental disorder', in a conviction that prompted criticism from far-right government ministers." That source doesn't even mention the term "crimes against humanity" at all. Another cited article from [https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paivi-rasanen-homosexuality-supreme-court-finland-b2946208.html The Independent] doesn't mention "crimes against humanity", either. I am also concerned that the use of the term "{{w|crimes against humanity}}" may be considered misleading as to the nature of the charges involved notwithstanding how the term is used in the Finnish Criminal Code which few English Wikinews readers may be familiar with. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 01:09, 28 March 2026 (UTC) **[[Talk:Supreme Court of Finland convicts Christians of crimes against the humanity of gays and lesbians in landmark ruling#Headline question|This discussion was continued here]]. --[[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 18:39, 28 March 2026 (UTC) == Published: [[Supreme Court of Finland makes crimes against humanity convictions in landmark ruling]] (April 6) == Hi, all, I am sending this message to all contributors to the article.

I believe this has substantially improved in the last few days as the article has been revised. Thank you. I have read the talk page and I believe the concerns there have been satisfactorily addressed in the recent edits and in the resulting current revision. Copyright check passed flagging only the quote(s) included in the text. '''I am recommending to add a sentence about expected consequence (fine, jail time) or if it is unknown then, when is this expected to be determined.

I have been posting in various places because in the time I've been here, every single non-original reporting article I've written has become stale - in one case, because it was not reviewed in a timely manner, I was asked to update it, and then THAT was not reviewed in a timely manner, so again it was marked stale. I've seen this happen to other peoples' articles as well. I don't think this is a good look, and I also think it's a waste of peoples' effort and serves no purpose. Anyway, if you'd like to see my attempts at reform of this process that is not working at all, I've made a few scattered comments at [[https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:Water_cooler/proposals]] and a thread at [[Wikinews talk:Newsworthiness]] if you'd be interested in participating.

The article was published. Congratulations. For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below. 1) Specified date in first paragraph more clearly, as it is a Friday today, my local time anyway, but event was last week. 2) Cleaned up a messy paragraph at the end of the page The following review comments were added: 1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark> 2) The article contains the following paragraph: ''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.'' This is garbage because: a) It is too long b) it has " ��" in between sentences c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..." <mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form. PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT COMPLETED ARTICLES. THIS IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT.</mark> Thank you.

The following edits were made by reviewer: 1) Article body written in past tense 2) External links moved to a section called 'External links' 3) Rearranged to specify the date in the first paragraph, see [[WN:IP|inverted pyramid]] Please keep these comments in mind when writing or editing articles in the future. The following notes were left by reviewer: 1) The previous review raised concern about bias in words such as 'many' in 'many commenters' or 'illegal in many ways', it was disappointing that this was not addressed at time of submitting for review. 2) Article was written on time and submitted on Dec22, which is not excellent for a Dec19 event, but is good. It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass. 3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates? Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred.

[[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 12:38, 22 March 2026 (UTC) == Regarding your move of my article == Hello, Metropolitan901! I think my article is best located at [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of crimes against humanity]] rather than [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of inciting hatred]] because the actual charge, the actual crime, and the actual conviction all fall under the section of the {{w|Criminal Code of Finland}} that concerns {{w|crimes against humanity}}. Moreover, there is a particular focus from several sources on the fact that Räsänen and Pohjola were convicted under the section of the Criminal Code of Finland that concerns crimes against humanity. [[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 00:56, 28 March 2026 (UTC) *I would note that one of the cited sources, [https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/26/finnish-mp-paivi-rasanen-convicted-homosexuality-developmental-disorder this article from The Guardian], begins with the sentence, "A Finnish member of parliament has been found guilty by the country’s supreme court of inciting hatred after claiming that homosexuality was a 'developmental disorder', in a conviction that prompted criticism from far-right government ministers." That source doesn't even mention the term "crimes against humanity" at all. Another cited article from [https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paivi-rasanen-homosexuality-supreme-court-finland-b2946208.html The Independent] doesn't mention "crimes against humanity", either. I am also concerned that the use of the term "{{w|crimes against humanity}}" may be considered misleading as to the nature of the charges involved notwithstanding how the term is used in the Finnish Criminal Code which few English Wikinews readers may be familiar with. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 01:09, 28 March 2026 (UTC) **[[Talk:Supreme Court of Finland convicts Christians of crimes against the humanity of gays and lesbians in landmark ruling#Headline question|This discussion was continued here]]. --[[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 18:39, 28 March 2026 (UTC) == Published: [[Supreme Court of Finland makes crimes against humanity convictions in landmark ruling]] (April 6) == Hi, all, I am sending this message to all contributors to the article.

I have been posting in various places because in the time I've been here, every single non-original reporting article I've written has become stale - in one case, because it was not reviewed in a timely manner, I was asked to update it, and then THAT was not reviewed in a timely manner, so again it was marked stale. I've seen this happen to other peoples' articles as well. I don't think this is a good look, and I also think it's a waste of peoples' effort and serves no purpose. Anyway, if you'd like to see my attempts at reform of this process that is not working at all, I've made a few scattered comments at [[https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:Water_cooler/proposals]] and a thread at [[Wikinews talk:Newsworthiness]] if you'd be interested in participating.

The article was published. Congratulations. For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below. 1) Specified date in first paragraph more clearly, as it is a Friday today, my local time anyway, but event was last week. 2) Cleaned up a messy paragraph at the end of the page The following review comments were added: 1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark> 2) The article contains the following paragraph: ''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.'' This is garbage because: a) It is too long b) it has " ��" in between sentences c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..." <mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form.

The following notes were left by reviewer: 1) The previous review raised concern about bias in words such as 'many' in 'many commenters' or 'illegal in many ways', it was disappointing that this was not addressed at time of submitting for review. 2) Article was written on time and submitted on Dec22, which is not excellent for a Dec19 event, but is good. It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass. 3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates? Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred.

I think my article is best located at [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of crimes against humanity]] rather than [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of inciting hatred]] because the actual charge, the actual crime, and the actual conviction all fall under the section of the {{w|Criminal Code of Finland}} that concerns {{w|crimes against humanity}}. Moreover, there is a particular focus from several sources on the fact that Räsänen and Pohjola were convicted under the section of the Criminal Code of Finland that concerns crimes against humanity. [[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 00:56, 28 March 2026 (UTC) *I would note that one of the cited sources, [https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/26/finnish-mp-paivi-rasanen-convicted-homosexuality-developmental-disorder this article from The Guardian], begins with the sentence, "A Finnish member of parliament has been found guilty by the country’s supreme court of inciting hatred after claiming that homosexuality was a 'developmental disorder', in a conviction that prompted criticism from far-right government ministers." That source doesn't even mention the term "crimes against humanity" at all. Another cited article from [https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paivi-rasanen-homosexuality-supreme-court-finland-b2946208.html The Independent] doesn't mention "crimes against humanity", either. I am also concerned that the use of the term "{{w|crimes against humanity}}" may be considered misleading as to the nature of the charges involved notwithstanding how the term is used in the Finnish Criminal Code which few English Wikinews readers may be familiar with. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 01:09, 28 March 2026 (UTC) **[[Talk:Supreme Court of Finland convicts Christians of crimes against the humanity of gays and lesbians in landmark ruling#Headline question|This discussion was continued here]]. --[[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 18:39, 28 March 2026 (UTC) == Published: [[Supreme Court of Finland makes crimes against humanity convictions in landmark ruling]] (April 6) == Hi, all, I am sending this message to all contributors to the article.

[[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] 11:47, 17 December 2025 (UTC) == Published: [[Domestic call in Rochester, New York leads to three police officers being shot]] (December 26) == Hello, This message is being sent to you as you contributed to the article at some point. The article was published. Congratulations. For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below. 1) Specified date in first paragraph more clearly, as it is a Friday today, my local time anyway, but event was last week. 2) Cleaned up a messy paragraph at the end of the page The following review comments were added: 1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark> 2) The article contains the following paragraph: ''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.'' This is garbage because: a) It is too long b) it has " ��" in between sentences c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..." <mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form. PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT COMPLETED ARTICLES. THIS IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT.</mark> Thank you. Have a great day. -- [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] 20:25, 25 December 2025 (UTC) == Published: [[Kennedy Center gets renamed to Trump-Kennedy Center]] (December 26) == The article has been published. Congratulations. The following edits were made by reviewer: 1) Article body written in past tense 2) External links moved to a section called 'External links' 3) Rearranged to specify the date in the first paragraph, see [[WN:IP|inverted pyramid]] Please keep these comments in mind when writing or editing articles in the future. The following notes were left by reviewer: 1) The previous review raised concern about bias in words such as 'many' in 'many commenters' or 'illegal in many ways', it was disappointing that this was not addressed at time of submitting for review. 2) Article was written on time and submitted on Dec22, which is not excellent for a Dec19 event, but is good. It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass. 3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates? Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred. Many thanks. -- [[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] 20:47, 25 December 2025 (UTC) :Also, the image licensing is unclear.

I think my article is best located at [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of crimes against humanity]] rather than [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of inciting hatred]] because the actual charge, the actual crime, and the actual conviction all fall under the section of the {{w|Criminal Code of Finland}} that concerns {{w|crimes against humanity}}. Moreover, there is a particular focus from several sources on the fact that Räsänen and Pohjola were convicted under the section of the Criminal Code of Finland that concerns crimes against humanity. [[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 00:56, 28 March 2026 (UTC) *I would note that one of the cited sources, [https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/26/finnish-mp-paivi-rasanen-convicted-homosexuality-developmental-disorder this article from The Guardian], begins with the sentence, "A Finnish member of parliament has been found guilty by the country’s supreme court of inciting hatred after claiming that homosexuality was a 'developmental disorder', in a conviction that prompted criticism from far-right government ministers." That source doesn't even mention the term "crimes against humanity" at all. Another cited article from [https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paivi-rasanen-homosexuality-supreme-court-finland-b2946208.html The Independent] doesn't mention "crimes against humanity", either. I am also concerned that the use of the term "{{w|crimes against humanity}}" may be considered misleading as to the nature of the charges involved notwithstanding how the term is used in the Finnish Criminal Code which few English Wikinews readers may be familiar with. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 01:09, 28 March 2026 (UTC) **[[Talk:Supreme Court of Finland convicts Christians of crimes against the humanity of gays and lesbians in landmark ruling#Headline question|This discussion was continued here]]. --[[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 18:39, 28 March 2026 (UTC) == Published: [[Supreme Court of Finland makes crimes against humanity convictions in landmark ruling]] (April 6) == Hi, all, I am sending this message to all contributors to the article.

I've seen this happen to other peoples' articles as well. I don't think this is a good look, and I also think it's a waste of peoples' effort and serves no purpose. Anyway, if you'd like to see my attempts at reform of this process that is not working at all, I've made a few scattered comments at [[https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:Water_cooler/proposals]] and a thread at [[Wikinews talk:Newsworthiness]] if you'd be interested in participating.

You are new here, and we are glad you've taken an interest in this project. 'Freshness' is important here. We focus on discreet news events -- sometimes things go stale and I hate that. But, we are an imperfect project -- always trying to get better. I say (a bit whimsically, so take it as such), "Don't fall in love with your articles." I have felt the sting of working hard on an article, and then it goes stale before it is published. I can respect the annoyance.

The article was published. Congratulations. For your reference, as a part of my review, the article required several minor edits. Some of these changes may be related to your edits, while others may be related to edits made by other users. The list of minor edits is provided below. 1) Specified date in first paragraph more clearly, as it is a Friday today, my local time anyway, but event was last week. 2) Cleaned up a messy paragraph at the end of the page The following review comments were added: 1) The article presents a nearly stale event on Dec19 which was written up on Dec21 and submitted for review on Dec24. <mark>Please do not delay submitting for review. Please submit for review as early as possible. THIS IS IMPORTANT.</mark> 2) The article contains the following paragraph: ''Officers responded to a 911 call around 10:15 p.m. after a man reported that his girlfriend's ex-boyfriend was attempting to break into her home and might have a gun ��. When officers arrived and located Davis at the side of the house, he immediately pulled out a handgun and opened fire at close range, striking two officers and the 911 caller ��. One officer was shot multiple times in the upper body but was protected by his ballistic vest and sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while the second officer was shot in the upper body and required surgery, leaving him in critical but stable condition ��.Davis fled the scene and was found minutes later at the intersection of Arnett Boulevard and Thurston Road �. When ordered to stop by a third officer, Davis opened fire again, shooting the officer once in the upper body ��. That officer and others returned fire, striking Davis multiple times and killing him at the scene ��.Casualties and ConditionsAll three wounded officers were treated at Strong Memorial Hospital and received life-saving treatment �. The 911 caller, who had exchanged gunfire with Davis and was shot multiple times, was also hospitalized in serious but non-life-threatening condition ��. Police Chief David Smith noted that each of the injured officers had fewer than 10 years on the force �.Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant for aggravated harassment from an October incident and had previously threatened the victim in July, telling her he would "put a bullet in her head," which led to her obtaining an order of protection �. He was convicted of third-degree burglary in 2005 and was illegally possessing a .40-caliber Glock handgun at the time of the shooting, which he fired until it was empty �. Rochester Mayor Malik Evans called the incident "people's Exhibit A on what domestic violence can do," noting that the police department receives more than 6,000 domestic violence calls annually ��.'' This is garbage because: a) It is too long b) it has " ��" in between sentences c) It has incomplete sentences like "Background on the SuspectDavis had an active arrest warrant ..." <mark>Please do not submit crappy paragraphs for review. This delays publishing. The only thing a reviewer can do is delete the whole paragraph, or clean it up; which is time consuming and disrespectful because you could have done the same too before submitting article for review and because it is not publishable in current form. PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT COMPLETED ARTICLES. THIS IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT.</mark> Thank you.

The following notes were left by reviewer: 1) The previous review raised concern about bias in words such as 'many' in 'many commenters' or 'illegal in many ways', it was disappointing that this was not addressed at time of submitting for review. 2) Article was written on time and submitted on Dec22, which is not excellent for a Dec19 event, but is good. It is on the edge of being stale now, as is is already Dec25, and I am making the decision to pass. 3) Please write article about what happened, whether the rename was approved by authorities. Has there been any recent updates? Please consider revising more thoroughly before re-submitting for review; writing up a story and submitting for review sooner and closer to the event date; and also consider writing a article about updates, if any updates were available, immediately after these updates occurred.

Please check the edit history carefully and let me know if any of my changes were incorrect. :2. I am trying to push towards more exclusive content or more closer follow ups here. Could you please either think of the questions to ask the South Korean Army, or, write a follow up report when the investigations completed and drills resumed? :3.

[[User:Gryllida|Gryllida]] ([[User talk:Gryllida|talk]]) 12:38, 22 March 2026 (UTC) == Regarding your move of my article == Hello, Metropolitan901! I think my article is best located at [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of crimes against humanity]] rather than [[Supreme Court of Finland convicts Päivi Räsänen and Juhana Pohjola of inciting hatred]] because the actual charge, the actual crime, and the actual conviction all fall under the section of the {{w|Criminal Code of Finland}} that concerns {{w|crimes against humanity}}. Moreover, there is a particular focus from several sources on the fact that Räsänen and Pohjola were convicted under the section of the Criminal Code of Finland that concerns crimes against humanity. [[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 00:56, 28 March 2026 (UTC) *I would note that one of the cited sources, [https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/26/finnish-mp-paivi-rasanen-convicted-homosexuality-developmental-disorder this article from The Guardian], begins with the sentence, "A Finnish member of parliament has been found guilty by the country’s supreme court of inciting hatred after claiming that homosexuality was a 'developmental disorder', in a conviction that prompted criticism from far-right government ministers." That source doesn't even mention the term "crimes against humanity" at all. Another cited article from [https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paivi-rasanen-homosexuality-supreme-court-finland-b2946208.html The Independent] doesn't mention "crimes against humanity", either. I am also concerned that the use of the term "{{w|crimes against humanity}}" may be considered misleading as to the nature of the charges involved notwithstanding how the term is used in the Finnish Criminal Code which few English Wikinews readers may be familiar with. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] ([[User talk:Metropolitan90|talk]]) 01:09, 28 March 2026 (UTC) **[[Talk:Supreme Court of Finland convicts Christians of crimes against the humanity of gays and lesbians in landmark ruling#Headline question|This discussion was continued here]]. --[[User:Justthefacts|Justthefacts]] ([[User talk:Justthefacts|talk]]) 18:39, 28 March 2026 (UTC) == Published: [[Supreme Court of Finland makes crimes against humanity convictions in landmark ruling]] (April 6) == Hi, all, I am sending this message to all contributors to the article. News is over a week old but I am publishing. The headline could be better but there is so much controversy about how to put it properly that I am content with the current revision.

I believe this has substantially improved in the last few days as the article has been revised. Thank you.

I thought I'd read that the film festival itself ran Nov. 6th - 9th -- is that right? If so, please check the last sentence in the article. *The cluster of images: Maybe tweak some of the captions -- I think 3 images all share the exact same caption. That is a lot of photos for one event, but they do provide a broad perspective of the events (from what I am reading). <br>I am done with editing on my end.

And for what is seemingly the most bizarre of reasons: Something isn't sticking. When Gryllida undeleted that (terribly stale) article, I can only surmise that you then believed you had carte blanche to do as you saw fit. I could be wrong. I don't know how you think. She prompted you to move it to your ''USER SPACE''. I don't know that you've fooled around much with Sandboxes -- but that is the ONLY PLACE this article belongs (for you to maybe do something with down the road). I did see (very late in the article) some mention of some November and December stuff -- that might have a pinch of possibilities, but only just and will require MAJOR gatwicking. I had MANY things to learn when I came here. Ours can be an uphill experience. I have 4000 pounds of patience for anyone who wishes to learn. You have cajoled and complained and misunderstood to no end. Without counting, you've easily referenced English WN as failure easily 3 times in the past 60 days. Actions like pushing that article out do not help that issue. You indicated that Gryllida asked you to come here to be a Reviewer. You are 5000 miles away from achieving that office as it sits now. You pushing that article out for review is beyond the pale. My words absolutely belong on your Talk page, so other Reviewers can see your actions and my response. I've made minor mention in recent weeks of disruptive edits (and I tend to go very soft on such actions). I will say, for the FINAL TIME: An interview is not a magic wand -- it isn't.

Now I see you’re referring to the article on Yoshiko Chuma. Let’s see what happened exactly. :* On Oct 30, you deleted the page with no reason supplied.[https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Special:Log?type=delete&user=&page=Dancer+Yoshiko+Chuma+performs+at+the+Children%E2%80%99s+Magical+Garden+in+New+York+City&wpdate=&tagfilter=&subtype=&wpFormIdentifier=logeventslist] :* When I asked why it was deleted, you said it had been marked as abandoned.

When you deleted it, it was still in the ‘review’ state. [https://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=User:Tduk/Dancer_Yoshiko_Chuma_performs_at_the_Children%E2%80%99s_Magical_Garden_in_New_York_City&action=history] :* I then asked why you didn’t move this article to a draft or user space, and you acted like you did not understand [https://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Bddpaux&diff=next&oldid=4894700], so I asked Gryllida off-wiki if I was mistaken. :* On Nov 11, Gryllida asked me to post on the admin alerts asking that it ‘’’be restored to a sandbox’’’, and I did exactly that. [https://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Wikinews:Admin_action_alerts&diff=prev&oldid=4926686] :* On Nov 21, it was finally undeleted - but NOT moved to sandbox.

A hacker operating under the alias ''nclay'' uploaded evidence to prove they had the stolen data &mdash; hashed passwords and emails &mdash; for sale, ''Hackread.com'' reported. Zomato later announced they contacted the hacker, who asked Zomato to organise a bug bounty programme. The food ordering company, with 120 million monthly users, said the payment information of the users was not located with this data and was not leaked. Zomato said it uses {{w|Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard|PCI Data Security Standards}}. As a security measure, all the passwords of the involved Zomato accounts were reset and all of the accounts were forcibly logged out from the application and website. The company said only hashed passwords were compromised. Hashed passwords are encrypted and, per Zomato, every password had a different "salt", for {{w|salt (cryptography)|cryptographic salting}} was performed before hashing the original password. A "salt" is a random set of characters added before encryption to make decryption to obtain the original passkey more difficult. The hashed password itself can not be used to access the account. In the blog post before contacting the hacker, saying "internal (human) security breach", Zomato suggested this could have happened after a worker's development account was hijacked. After contacting the hacker, and promising a bug bounty programme on Hackerone, they said, the hacker agreed and removed the stolen data which was put on sale on the {{w|dark web}}.

The block was introduced on Sunday, and the Saudi government accused Al Jazeera of content violating cyber crime laws of the kingdom. Mostefa Souag said Snapchat's action "sends a message that regimes and countries can silence any voice or platform they don't agree with by exerting pressure on the owners of social media platforms and content distribution companies. This step is a clear attack on the rights of journalists and media professionals to report and cover stories freely from around the world". A spokesperson of Snapchat's parent company, Snap, Inc., on Sunday, said, "We make an effort to comply with local laws in the countries where we operate". Al Jazeera's Snapchat content outside the discover channel can be accessed by Saudis. Snap, Inc. said the channel's content is available in fourteen Middle Eastern countries. Al Jazeera's website was blocked in Saudi Arabia and the UAE in late May, amid controversy over remarks allegedly made by Qatar. Four countries, [[Bahrain]], [[Egypt]], Saudi Arabia, and the [[UAE]] broke their diplomatic ties with Qatar for allegedly supporting "extremists". Accused by those four nations of funding militant groups, Qatar was issued with a list of thirteen demands, including shutting down Al Jazeera, to lift the sanctions. In July, Egypt foreign ministry announced citizens of Qatar could no longer travel to Egypt without a visa, ending the visa-free travels to the country for Qataris.

The episode is slated to be the only one of the series broadcast on conventional television, with future installments exclusive to {{w|streaming media|streaming}} platform {{w|CBS All Access}}. ''Discovery'' continues the long-running ''{{w|Star Trek}}'' franchise with the first series in the franchise to feature a black female lead. The airing follows several months of development and delays, as the series was retooled by veteran television producers including {{w|Bryan Fuller}} and {{w|Akiva Goldsman}}. Initially announced in 2015 to celebrate ''Star Trek'''s 50th anniversary the following year, the series has been plagued by setbacks, including departure of Bryan Fuller as showrunner in late 2016, collectively pushing its release date to move from January to September of this year. Only {{w|Canada|Canadian}} station {{w|Space (TV channel)|Space}} is to air the series on traditional television. In all other non-US countries, {{w|Netflix}} has the rights. The series is the newest installment of the ''Star Trek'' media franchise. ''Discovery'' is a prequel program set before {{w|Star Trek: The Original Series|the 1960s original series}}, set to explore the relationship between the Earth-based Federation made up of several benign alien species who explore the universe to find new life, and the war-like Klingons who have been villains of the various films and television installments. Veteran US television actress {{w|Sonequa Martin-Green}} stars as Michael Burnham, first officer of starship USS ''Shenzou''. The series has earned praise and controversy for its decision to cast the lead as a black woman. Creators say this inclusivity is consistent with the franchise's history, which has featured black male and white female leads. All casts have been multi-racial, starting with the original series, which included the black female character {{w|Uhura}} portrayed by {{w|Nichelle Nichols}}. ''Discovery'' also marks a key part of CBS's strategy for streaming its streaming video service All Access. Launched in 2014, the platform has a library of several thousand episodes from the network's past programming as well as debuting two {{wikt|spin-off}} series: ''{{w|Big Brother: Over the Top}}'', from the reality television franchise ''{{w|Big Brother (TV)|Big Brother}}'', and the legal procedural ''{{w|The Good Fight}}'', from ''{{w|The Good Wife}}''. The {{w|CBS Corporation}} is using this drama as an incentive for signing up to their service, which competes with industry giants {{w|Amazon Prime}}, Netflix, and {{w|Hulu}}. Hulu is a joint venture including many of the broadcast networks in the United States but CBS only began sharing selected programming on this platform earlier this year. CBS claimed the debut resulted in their biggest surge in membership, without offering hard numbers. {{haveyoursay}} == Sources == *{{source |url = https://www.engadget.com/2017/09/25/star-trek-discovery-shouldnt-be-streaming-only/ |title = ‘''Star Trek: Discovery''’ deserves better than CBS’s streaming service |author = Swapna Krishna |pub = Engadget |date = September 25, 2017 }} *{{Source |title= All Access Boosted to Warp Speed by ''Star Trek'' |url=http://www.broadcastingcable.com/all-access-boosted-warp-speed-star-trek/168841 |pub=Broadcasting & Cable |author= Jon Lafayette |date=September 25, 2017}} *{{source |url = http://tvline.com/2017/09/24/star-trek-discovery-review-recap-premiere-the-vulcan-hello-cbs-all-access/ |title = ''Star Trek: Discovery'' Review: The Tense, Dazzling New Trek Is Worth the Wait |author = Dave Nemetz | pub = TVLine | date = September 21, 2017 }} *{{source |url = https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/tv/2017/09/20/star-trek-discovery-cbs-sonequa-martin-green-james-frain/683063001/ |title = ''Star Trek: Discovery'' Adds New Twist to Human–Vulcan Balance |author = Bill Keveney |pub = USA Today |date = September 20, 2017 }} *{{source |url = http://variety.com/2017/tv/features/star-trek-discovery-preview-cbs-all-access-sonequa-martin-green-1202540540/ |title = Can ''Star Trek: Discovery'' Help CBS Boldly Go into a Streaming Future? |author = Daniel Holloway |pub = Variety (magazine)|Variety |date = August 29, 2017 }} *{{source |url = http://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/sonequa-martin-green-defends-new-star-trek-w489272 |title = Sonequa Martin-Green Defends New ''Star Trek''’s Diverse Cast: ‘We’re Taking Another Step Forward’ |author = |pub = Us Weekly |date = June 22, 2017 }} *{{source |url = http://metro.co.uk/2017/05/25/star-trek-fans-decry-discoverys-diversity-forgetting-gene-roddenberys-vision-of-inclusivity-6660755/ |title = ''Star Trek'' Fans Decry ''Discovery''’s Diversity, Forgetting Gene Roddenbery’s (sic) Vision of Inclusivity |author = Rebecca Lewis |pub = Metro (British newspaper)|''Metro'' |date = May 25, 2017 }} *{{source |url = https://www.wsj.com/articles/cbs-nearing-a-deal-with-hulu-for-live-streaming-service-1483549218 |title = Hulu Reaches Deal With CBS for Live-Streaming Content |author = Shalini Ramachandran |pub = Wall Street Journal |date = January 4, 2017 }} *{{source |url = http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/bryan-fuller-as-star-trek-discovery-showrunner-941587 |title = Bryan Fuller Out as ''Star Trek: Discovery'' Showrunner |author = Lesley Goldberg |pub = The Hollywood Reporter |date = October 26, 2016 }} *{{source |url = http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/star-trek-tv-series-works-828638 |title = New 'Star Trek' TV Series a Go at CBS All Access |author = Lesley Goldberg |pub = The Hollywood Reporter |date = November 2, 2015 }} *{{source |url = https://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/12/business/nielsen-reports-2-in-5-us-households-subscribe-to-video-streaming-services.html |title = Nielsen Charts Reach of Video Streaming |author = Emily Steel |pub = The New York Times |date = March 11, 2015 }} {{Publish}} {{Archived-cc-2.5}} {{DISPLAYTITLE:First ''Star Trek'' series in twelve years, ''Discovery'', debuts on television}} [[Category:Star Trek]] [[Category:Television]] [[Category:CBS]] [[Category:Culture and entertainment]] dojl1y282a5swxsoiqullmc4td7sss0 0 2824844 5009579 4818155 2026-04-17T23:50:21Z Michael.C.Wright 1936983 Switch to non-DPL infobox [[Wikinews:Water cooler/miscellaneous#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|pending closure of the project]] 5009579 wikitext text/x-wiki {{date|September 28, 2017}}{{Real Madrid}} Yesterday<!--On Wednesday-->, [[France|French]] defender [[Raphaël Varane]] agreed to sign a contract extension with [[Spain|Spanish]] [[Madrid|capital]] [[soccer|football]] club [[Real Madrid]], the club announced via their official website.

The 72-year-old came out of his retirement, and is to take the position on Monday. The contract runs until June 30, 2018. Heynckes has previously managed Bayern in three spells &mdash; 1987&ndash;1991, 2009 and 2011&ndash;2013.

[[Pep Guardiola]] succeeded him as Bayern's head coach in 2013. Upon agreeing to coach Bayern again, yesterday<!--on Friday-->, Heynckes said, {{translated quote|de|German language|Ich wäre zu keinem anderen Verein der Welt zurückgekehrt, aber der FC Bayern München ist eine Herzensangelegenheit für mich.|I wouldn't have returned to any other club in the world, but FC Bayern München are very close to my heart.}} Heynckes' predecessor [[Carlo Ancelotti]] was sacked on September 28, after a 3&ndash;0 loss against [[France|French]] [[Paris|capital]] club [[Paris St-Germain]] (PSG) in the UEFA Champions League group stage match.

Ancelotti led Bayern to a Bundesliga title, the club's fifth consecutive league title. But in the second season in charge of the German giants, Bayern is currently five points behind league table leaders and arch rivals Borussia Dortmund. After 3&ndash;0 defeat at PSG's home, Bayern's CEO [[Karl-Heinz Rummenigge]] said, {{translated quote|de|German language|Die Leistungen unserer Mannschaft seit Saisonbeginn entsprachen nicht den Erwartungen, die wir an sie stellen.

This follows a news article on February&nbsp;9 in ''{{w|The Times}}'', describing sexual misbehaviour by some Oxfam members on a {{w|Haiti}} mission following the {{w|2010 Haiti earthquake|big earthquake}} in 2010. The plan includes establishment of a special independent "High-Level Commission on Sexual Misconduct, Accountability and Culture Change", as well as other measures such as an immediate injection of money. ''The Times'' reported some members of {{w|Oxfam GB}} hired prostitutes during sexual parties, during the mission on Haiti, which was set up after the earthquake in January 2010. Moreover, witnesses alleged that during a mission in the African country {{w|Chad}} in 2006, prostitutes frequented the team house. Executive Director {{w|Winnie Byanyima}} promised to build up a new organizational culture which will no longer tolerate such behaviour. Executive director of Oxfam GB {{w|Mark Goldring}} said: "People put their trust in Oxfam and we betrayed that trust. What happened was a disgrace and we are absolutely committed to rooting out abuse across the organisation. [...] These problems cannot all be solved by Oxfam alone, and we will work with the government, the Charity Commission, women’s rights organisations and others in the sector to implement urgent reforms." The new research commission would consist of international senior female experts in the field of women's rights. It would have power to investigate the organization's internal culture, policy and practices, as well as possible cases of sexual misbehaviour by both current and previous Oxfam members. Some cases judged in the past could be re-evaluated. The commission members would have full access to the Oxfam case records. Interviews would be held with staff members as well as with Oxfam-supported partners and communities worldwide. Commission members would hear claims and feedback regarding, especially, abuse of power and sexual misconduct. Moreover, a global database of accredited referees was to be created, in order to end false or dishonest staff references.

Head of consumer rights protection agency {{w|Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing|Rospotrebnadzor}} and chief sanitary officer Dr {{w|Anna Popova}} announced {{w|poultry}} workers have been infected with the virus A(H5N8) in December, but "[a]ll seven [...] are now feeling well" and "the situation did not develop further". She said they reported it to the WHO "several days ago, just as we became absolutely certain of our results". Popova said transmission between humans has not yet been detected, while noting the potential of mutations able "to overcome this barrier". She concluded the discovery "gives us all, the entire world, time to prepare for possible mutations and react in an adequate and timely fashion". The WHO's European Regional Office said in an e-mail "the reported cases were [...] asymptomatic and no onward human to human transmission was reported", according to "[p]reliminary information". The e-mail continued "[w]e are in discussion with national authorities to gather more information and assess the public health impact". The strain's genetic material was isolated from infected workers by the {{w|State Research Center of Virology and Biotechnology VECTOR|State Research Center of Virology and Biotechnology}}, which announced its intention to develop human tests and an H5N8 vaccine. Outbreaks of H5N8 in poultry have been found in the past few months in [[China]], [[Europe]], {{w|North Africa}}, the [[Middle East]], and Russia. Strains of bird flu have occasionally infected or killed humans before. Most transmissions were attributed to direct contact with live or uncooked dead poultry. {{haveyoursay}} == Sources == <!--Cite at least two independent sources.--> *{{source |url = https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/feb/20/bird-flu-humans-infected-with-h5n8-strain-for-first-time-in-russia |title = Bird flu: humans infected with H5N8 strain for first time in Russia |author = Molly Blackall |pub = The Guardian |date = February 20, 2021 }} *{{source |url = https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-56140270 |title = Bird flu: Russia detects first case of H5N8 bird flu in humans |author = |pub = BBC News |date = February 20, 2021 }} *{{source |url = https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-birdflu-russia-idUSKBN2AK0DU |title = Russia reports world's first case of human infection with H5N8 bird flu |author = Polina Devitt, Gabrielle Tétrault-Farber, Vladimir Soldatkin |pub = Reuters |date = February 20, 2021 }} *{{source |url = https://tass.com/society/1157345 |title = Coronavirus situation stabilizes across Russia, chief sanitary doctor says |author = |pub = TASS |date = May 17, 2020 }} *{{source |url = https://slate.com/technology/2014/07/vector-institute-in-novosibirsk-siberia-where-russia-stores-its-smallpox.html |title = Is Siberia a Safe Place for Smallpox? |author = Alina Simone |pub = Slate (magazine) |date = July 14, 2014 }} [[Category:Avian Flu]] [[Category:Health]] [[Category:Disease]] [[Category:Russia]] [[Category:Europe]] [[Category:Asia]] [[Category:World Health Organization]] [[Category:JJLiu112 (Wikinewsie)]] {{Publish}} {{Archived-cc-2.5}} [[ru:В России выявили первый в мире случай заражения человека вирусом птичьего гриппа H5N8]] [[zh:俄羅斯通報首批人類感染H5N8禽流感病例]] rnb6sbzkw4wpuq7iel3rk3yvbu9c8bz 0 2925722 5009562 4824377 2026-04-17T22:35:39Z Michael.C.Wright 1936983 Switch to non-DPL infobox [[Wikinews:Water cooler/miscellaneous#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|pending closure of the project]] 5009562 wikitext text/x-wiki {{date|July 4, 2021}}{{Maroochydore Rugby Union Club}} Relatively few people reach one hundred top grade games at their local [[football]] club whether they play [[soccer]], {{w|Australian rules|Australian rules}}, or {{w|Rugby football|either rugby code}}.

According to the article, around 50 {{w|North Korean defectors}} and escapees were recently sent back to their place of origin following their arrest by Chinese police and border authorities. An anonymous witness told {{w|Radio Free Asia}} that "The Dandong customs office was opened just for today and they [Chinese border authorities] sent about 50 North Korean escapees back to North Korea on two buses." The witness also added that "dozens of police officers lined up in front of the customs office to block public access and ensure nobody was filming." As a reaction to the sudden spread of [[COVID-19]], North Korea closed its borders totally, which halted the repatriation of defectors. The recent repatriation was the first of its kind since January 2020, when North Korean authorities closed the {{w|Sino-Korean border}} as a way to protect the country from the pandemic. Repatriations of this kind were held routinely for the defectors who had crossed the {{w|Yalu}} and {{w|Tumen River|Tuman}} rivers into China before the pandemic occured. This repatriation action caught the eye of the {{w|United States Department of State|United States' Department of State}}, with an official spokesperson saying that "We are particularly concerned by recent reports that nearly 50 North Koreans were forcibly repatriated." The spokesperson said that the [[United States]] urges China to "fulfill its international obligations as a party to the {{w|Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees|1951 UN Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees}} and its {{w|1967 Protocol}} and the {{w|UN Convention Against Torture}}." Radio Free Asia's article cites that some among the 50 repatriated were soldiers and pilots who had served in the {{w|Korean People's Army Air and Anti-Air Force|North's Air Force}}. Returning such refugees to North Korea, where they face imprisonment and torture from the authorities, is a violation of the United Nations' 1951 Refugee Convention, 1967 Protocol and the UN Convention against Torture. According to the article by Human Rights Watch, at least 1170 North Korean people are held in various prisons in China's {{w|Jilin}} and {{w|Liaoning}} provinces, where they face deportation after being charged with criminal offenses. Both countries maintain a friendly relationship, with both leaders having exchanged greetings on July 11, as reported by state newspaper ''{{w|Rodong Sinmun}}''. A 1986 bilateral border protocol signed by both nations warrants the deportation of any and all defectors and other North Koreans illegaly staying in China. According to data reported by [[South Korea]]'s {{w|Ministry of Unification}}, only two defectors from the North reached South Korea between April and June of this year, the lowest number ever recorded since the Ministry started recording the inflow of defectors. Such a decrease in the amount of defectors is mainly being attributed to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]], as North Korea entirely stopped people from leaving or entering the country, while still claiming to have no cases of the virus. North Korean defectors often transit through China to reach either South Korea or another safe country, as the Sino-Korean border is easier to cross than the {{w|Military Demarcation Line|North-South border}}. The closest defector-friendly country accessible by land to defectors is the South-East Asian country of [[Vietnam]]. {{haveyoursay}} == Sources == *{{source |url = https://www.hrw.org/news/2021/07/22/china-restarts-forced-returns-refugees-north-korea |title = China Restarts Forced Returns of Refugees to North Korea |author = Lina Yoon |pub = Human Rights Watch |date = July 22, 2021 }} *{{source |url = https://www.rfa.org/english/news/korea/repatriation-07192021195626.html |title = Concern About Fate of 50 North Korean Escapees Sent Home by China |author = |pub = Radio Free Asia |date = July 19, 2021 }} *{{source |url = http://rodong.rep.kp/en/index.php?strPageID=SF01_02_01&newsID=2021-07-11-0002 |title = Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Receives Greetings from President Xi Jinping |author = |pub = Rodong Sinmun |date = July 11, 2021 }} *{{source |url = http://rodong.rep.kp/en/index.php?strPageID=SF01_02_01&newsID=2021-07-11-0003 |title = Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Sends Greetings to President Xi Jinping |author = |pub = Rodong Sinmun |date = July 11, 2021 }} [[Category:Human Rights Watch]] [[Category:China]] [[Category:United States]] [[Category:South Korea]] [[Category:North Korea]] [[Category:Human rights]] [[Category:Refugees]] [[Category:Henrymyman (Wikinewsie)]] [[Category:Deportation]] {{Publish}} {{Archived-cc-2.5}} d9gf3peq7aob3et1sr463hxagx9cncb 0 2933459 5009558 4823262 2026-04-17T22:31:37Z Michael.C.Wright 1936983 Switch to non-DPL infobox [[Wikinews:Water cooler/miscellaneous#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|pending closure of the project]] 5009558 wikitext text/x-wiki {{North Korea}} {{date|October 13, 2021}} <!-- please leave this as it is --> On Monday, on the 76th anniversary of the ruling {{w|Workers' Party of Korea}}'s founding, North Korean leader [[Kim Jong Un]] inaugurated a new weapons exhibition in the {{w|Three Revolutions Exhibition|Three-Revolutions Exhibition House}}, [[Pyongyang]].

Attendees, mainly {{w|Korean People's Army}} (KPA) officers, party officials and invited defence industry personnel, greeted Kim with "{{w|Ten thousand years|Manse!}}" (Long Live!). High-ranking party officials {{w|Choe Ryong Hae}}, {{w|Jo Yong Won}} and {{w|Hyon Song-wol|Hyon Song Wol}}, {{w|Premier of North Korea|premier}} {{w|Kim Tok Hun}}, Marshal {{w|Pak Jong Chon}} and Kim Jong Un's sister {{w|Kim Yo Jong}} were also there. A musical performance by the KPA military band and the Orchestra of the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) came before a KPA martial arts demonstration, in it brick breaking with bare fists, bending steel bars with the sternum and jumping over cars. A {{w|flypast}} closed the outdoor sequence, rendering the colours of the {{w|North Korean flag}} with {{w|coloured smoke|smoke}} on the sky. Kim Jong Un's opening speech indoors remarked that "the {{w|Mutual Defense Treaty (United States–South Korea)|US tacit sponsorship}} [of [[South Korea]]] continue to damage the inter-Korean feelings and emotions" and that "South Korea has been unhesitant on several occasions in disclosing its ambition for securing military supremacy over us under the preposterous excuse of deterring threat from us", but called their military build-up a {{w|Deterrence theory|war deterrence}} effort. He also called on people to support to the defence capabilities of the country<!-- speech: 4th but last paragraph -->, and dedicated the event to analyze their recent achievements in the field.<!-- speech: search for "analyze" --> An award ceremony for servicepersons and others followed with high decorations handed over, including the {{w|Order of Kim Il-sung|Kim Il Sung}} and {{w|Order of Kim Jong Il|Kim Jong Il}} Orders, the {{w|Kim Il-sung Prize|Kim Il Sung}} and Kim Jong Il Prizes, the title of {{w|Hero of Labor (North Korea)|Labour Hero}}, the {{w|Order of the National Flag}} and watches signed with the names of {{w|Kim Il Sung}} and Kim Jong Il. After touring the exhibition, Kim Jong Un met with the jet pilots who performed earlier, then left in a limousine. The exhibition featured missiles, including editions {{w|Hwasong-14|14}}, {{w|Hwasong-15|15}} and {{w|Hwasong-16|16}} of the Hwasong {{w|intercontinental ballistic missile}} series. In reaction on Tuesday, Moon Hong-sik, a spokesperson for South Korea's {{w|Ministry of National Defense (South Korea)|Ministry of Defence}} said that both the [[United States]] and South Korea are analyzing the displayed equipment. {{haveyoursay}} == Sources == *{{source |url = https://en.yna.co.kr/view/AEN20211012006900325?section=nk/nk |title = Seoul, Washington analyzing weapons showcased at N.

Going by the Chinese name Zhu Xianjian, the 39 year-old man had been arrested for illegal entry into China, theft, and larceny. His deportation back to [[North Korea]] from {{w|Jilin|Jilin Province}} was scheduled to take place in 2023, after his sentence ended. [[File:Jilin in China (+all claims hatched).svg|thumb|left|Jilin Province on a map of China.{{image|[[:c:User:TUBS|User:TUBS]]}}]] Images and video of the capture were released alongside the report, showing Zhu being carried into a police car by law enforcement, near the lakeside house where he was apprehended. According to a video released by the {{w|South China Morning Post}}, reports say that Zhu was shot in the leg while trying to flee. A 200,000 {{w|Renminbi|yuan}} (31,284 [[United States dollar|USD]]) bounty had been instituted for any tips or information that could lead to the defector's capture, ''Business Insider'' reported. Zhu had escaped from Jilin prison on October 18, after climbing on a storage shed and leaping off a wall. Zhu had escaped from North Korea in July 2013, after swimming across the {{w|Tumen River|Tumen river}}, which acts as a natural border between North Korea and China. Prior to his escape, Zhu had been living as a coal miner in North Korea. North Korean defectors face imprisonment and possible torture if caught in China. A bilateral border agreement signed in 1986 between China and North Korea warrants the deportation of all Korean defectors caught by Chinese authorities back to North Korea. {{haveyoursay}} == Related news == * {{wikinews|China resumes deportation of refugees back to North Korea|May 28, 2018}} == Sources == *{{source |url = https://twitter.com/SCMPNews/status/1465777905766600712 |title = This North Korean inmate has been recaptured after escaping from a prison and going on the run for 41 days in northern China. |author = South China Morning Post |pub = Twitter |date = November 30, 2021 |archiveurl = }} *{{source |url = https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20211128-chinese-police-capture-north-korean-convict-on-the-run |title = Chinese police capture North Korean convict on the run |author = |pub = France24 |date = November 28, 2021 |archiveurl = }} *{{source |url = https://www.bjnews.com.cn/detail/163807487614437.html |title = 越狱潜逃42天罪犯朱贤健在吉林市被抓获 现场视频曝光 |author = |lang = zh |pub = Beijing News |date = November 28, 2021 |archiveurl = }} *{{source |url = https://www.businessinsider.com/north-korea-escaped-china-prison-still-on-run-2021-11 |title = A North Korean defector is on the run in China after escaping from prison 23 days ago, with police offering a $31,000 reward |author = Bill Bostock |pub = Business Insider |date = November 10, 2021 |archiveurl = }} *{{source |url = https://www.rfa.org/english/news/korea/repatriation-07192021195626.html |title = Concern About Fate of 50 North Korean Escapees Sent Home by China |author = |pub = Radio Free Asia |date = July 19, 2021 |archiveurl = }} {{Publish}} {{Archived-cc-2.5}} [[Category:China]] [[Category:North Korea]] [[Category:Henrymyman (Wikinewsie)]] [[Category:Crime and law]] [[Category:Deportation]] 8lwfv7r5lyghw2dm0b85udyag4oiu79 0 2936286 5009525 4812061 2026-04-17T21:35:51Z Michael.C.Wright 1936983 Switch to non-DPL infobox, [[Wikinews:Water cooler/miscellaneous#Board of Trustees Approves Closure of Wikinews|pending closure of the project]] 5009525 wikitext text/x-wiki {{North Korea}} {{date|December 2, 2021}} In a talk made to officials at a meeting of the {{w|Politburo of the Workers' Party of Korea|Political Bureau of the Workers' Party of Korea}} held on Wednesday, [[North Korea|North Korean]] leader [[Kim Jong Un]] warned officials of a coming "very giant struggle" in the economic field, reported Party newspaper ''{{w|Rodong Sinmun}}''.

At the Politburo meeting, Kim Jong Un said that "the successes registered by us show that the overall affairs that had been planned to lay a foundation for the economic development of the country and the improvement of people's living standard have been vigorously pushed forward", praising successes made in the agricultural and construction fields. Kim followed by saying that "next year will be an important one as we should wage a very giant struggle as much as we did this year", and that plans made for next year should "be dynamic, onward, scientific and detailed, and consolidate the foundation for implementing the five-year plan." North Korea's economy has suffered as a result of various factors over the last two years, with a combination of COVID-19 border closures and heavier sanctions topping off a typhoon and heavy flooding.

In the same article, Kim Yong-ju was described as having "devotedly struggled to implement the {{w|Workers' Party of Korea|Party's}} lines and policies and made a contribution to accelerating socialist construction and developing the Korean-style state social system". The death was reported only two days before the ten-year death anniversary of former leader [[Kim Jong-il]], Kim Yong-ju's nephew. Kim was passed over during Kim Il-sung's succession, and gradually "faded from the political scene", according to the [[Associated Press]]. According to the same source, his last public appearance was in a TV report in 2015, in which he is seen casting a ballot. Kim Yong-ju was awarded the {{w|Order of Kim Il-sung}} and the {{w|Order of Kim Jong-il}}, the two highest orders of the country, and the title of {{w|Hero of the Republic}}, the highest honorary title of the country.

This was the third missile North Korea (DPRK) launched this year. It flew for {{km to mi|1000}} before hitting sea, state media claimed. [[File:Kim Jong-un at the Workers' Party of Korea main building.png|thumb|left|A 2018 stock photo of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.{{image|{{w|Blue House}} (Republic of Korea)}}]] "The {{w|Juche}} weapon representing the power of the DPRK" and of "superior maneuverability" was test-fired for "final verification of overall technical specifications", according to state media. In an email sent to [[Al Jazeera]], professor Leif-Eric Easley at Ewha University in [[Seoul]], [[South Korea]] said "[the] so-called hypersonic weapon is not technologically ready". {{w|Republic of Korea Armed Forces|South Korean military authorities}} at first downplayed the missile, but later said it showed "improvement", the {{w|Yonhap News Agency}} reported. Earlier this year, North Korea conducted two missile tests: one last Wednesday, and a second one on Monday, which were confirmed by both South Korea and the {{w|Japan Coast Guard|Japanese coast guard}}. The first launch was a winter resilience test, state media claimed. North Korea tested their first hypersonic missile, {{w|Hwasong-8}}, on September 28. Ankit Panda, a defence expert from {{w|Carnegie Endowment for International Peace}}, said last Wednesday's missile was not a Hwasong-8, but a new model unveiled at an October weapons exhibition in [[Pyongyang]], North Korea. After the September test, Panda called Hwasong-8 a "significant milestone" in comments to the [[BBC]]. On Monday, the [[United Nations]] (UN) missions of [[Albania]], [[France]], the [[Republic of Ireland]], [[Japan]], the [[United Kingdom]] and the [[United States]] jointly called for dialogue and denounced the first test. The US ambassador to the UN {{w|Linda Thomas-Greenfield}} called it "a significant threat to regional stability". On Tuesday, South Korean president [[Moon Jae-in]] said the tests worry him ahead of the country's {{w|2022 South Korean presidential election|coming presidential election}} scheduled for March. Hypersonic missiles are faster and can evade {{w|radar}} detection longer than regular {{w|ballistic missile|ballistic missiles}}, the BBC explained. {{haveyoursay}} == Related news == *{{wikinews|North Korean leader Kim Jong Un inaugurates the "Defence Development Exhibition 'Self-Defence-2021'"|October 13, 2021}} *{{wikinews|North Korea tests two missiles|March 26, 2021}} == Sources == *{{source |url = https://kcnawatch.org/newstream/1641958317-414187769/distinguished-feat-of-wpk-in-history-of-leading-juche-based-defence-industry-success-in-another-hypersonic-missile-test-fire-respected-comrade-kim-jong-un-watches-test-fire-in-field |title = Distinguished Feat of WPK in History of Leading Juche-based Defence Industry Success in Another Hypersonic Missile Test-fire Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Watches Test-fire in Field |author = Rodong Sinmun |pub = NK News |date = January 12, 2021 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20220113010514/https://kcnawatch.org/newstream/1641958317-414187769/distinguished-feat-of-wpk-in-history-of-leading-juche-based-defence-industry-success-in-another-hypersonic-missile-test-fire-respected-comrade-kim-jong-un-watches-test-fire-in-field }} *{{source |url = https://www.nknews.org/pro/wp-content/uploads/kcna-watch/kcna_kp_kr/images/MM00289789.jpg |title = 주체적국방공업령도사에 아로새긴 조선로동당의 빛나는 공적 또다시 만천하에 과시 |author = |pub = NK News |date = January 12, 2021 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20220112173723/https://www.nknews.org/pro/wp-content/uploads/kcna-watch/kcna_kp_kr/images/MM00289789.jpg }} *{{source |url = https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-59958664 |title = North Korea says Kim Jong-un oversaw third hypersonic missile test |author = |pub = BBC News |date = January 12, 2021 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20220113133551/https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-59958664 }} *{{source |url = https://en.yna.co.kr/view/AEN20220112000454325?section=nk/nk |title = (3rd LD) N.

The checking provision was introduced as part of the {{w|Northern Ireland Protocol}}, which was decided during [[2016 UK EU referendum|Brexit]] negotiations that saw the UK leave the [[European Union]]. However, prominent {{w|Unionism in Ireland|Unionists}} in Northern Ireland have strongly opposed its terms. Givan's resignation will also force [[Sinn Féin]] Deputy First Minister {{w|Michelle O'Neill}} from office in the devolved {{w|Northern Ireland Executive|Executive}} (Stormont). This cripples the body's legislative power, meaning it can no longer meet to pass vital policies like the three-year budget, an energy bills grant and relaxing [[COVID-19|Covid-19]] restrictions. However, other Stormont ministers remain in portfolio until the {{w|2022 Northern Ireland Assembly election|next elections}} scheduled for May. Givan's emotional press statement indicated Northern Ireland's institutions are "being tested once again and the delicate balance created by the {{w|Good Friday Agreement|Belfast}} and {{w|St Andrews Agreement|St Andrew’s}} agreements has been impacted by the agreement made by the United Kingdom government and the European Union [Brexit]". He specifically mentioned the "cornerstone" {{w|principle of consent}} provided as part of the [[Belfast, Northern Ireland|Belfast]] Good Friday Agreement that introduced the power-sharing Executive. However, he emphasised his "earnest desire that all sections of the community will soon be able to give consent to the restoration of a fully functioning executive, through a resolution to the issues that have regrettably brought us to this point". He called his resignation after almost eight months in the post "the end of what has been the privilege of my lifetime - to serve as the First Minister of Northern Ireland". He succeeded {{w|Arlene Foster}} after she resigned in June 2021. It was something "I never expected to have the opportunity to [do]" when first elected as {{w|Lagan Valley (Assembly constituency)|Lagan Valley}} {{w|Member of the Legislative Assembly (Northern Ireland)|MLA}} in {{w|2011 Northern Ireland Assembly election|2011}}, he added. The decision was criticised by opposition parties, including "reckless and self-serving" by Sinn Féin finance minister {{w|Conor Murphy}}, in addition to officials in the British and [[Ireland|Irish]] governments. Leader of Sinn Féin {{w|Mary Lou McDonald}} urged an early election to be called "in the absence of a functioning Executive" to show "the DUP actions have consequences, real consequences for people struggling". Leader of the {{w|Ulster Unionist Party}} {{w|Doug Beattie}} framed it as destabilising, generating "more hardship for the people of Northern Ireland" and ultimately fruitless: "At the end of it all, the Protocol will still be there". While McDonald criticised coming inaction on the budget and healthcare investment for "the DUPs own narrow and self-serving political interests", others expressed concern over the crippling of government services. UK {{w|Secretary of State for Northern Ireland}} {{w|Brandon Lewis}} called the move "extremely disappointing" and urged a reinstatement to "ensure the necessary delivery of public services for the citizens of Northern Ireland". Prime Minister [[Boris Johnson]] emphasised the UK government's priority "for a resilient Northern Ireland Executive". Taoiseach of Ireland {{w|Michéal Martin}} called Givan's decision "a highly damaging move". Through a spokesperson he warned "[i]t is absolutely vital for peace and prosperity in Northern Ireland that the Executive is delivering for the people of Northern Ireland, particularly now as we emerge from the [[COVID-19|Covid]] pandemic". He urged "the DUP to return to full engagement with all the institutions of the Good Friday Agreement" that the Protocol protects "in all its dimensions". He added talks between the UK and EU, of which Ireland is a member, are ongoing and "must be given every chance to succeed". He further said: "The [European] [[European Commission|Commission]] has put forward serious proposals which directly address the concerns about outstanding issues on implementation of the Protocol". Givan had told reporters he was resigning as Unionists were being required "to be seen and not heard" regarding the Protocol. British Foreign Secretary {{w|Liz Truss}} and Commission vice president {{w|Maroš Šefčovič}} met via video conference on Thursday to discuss the Protocol, "the only solution we have found with the UK government to protect the Good Friday (Belfast) Agreement". In a statement, Šefčovič called yesterday's instruction by Stormont Agriculture Minister and former DUP leader {{w|Edwin Poots}} to suspend certain checks for goods entering Northern Ireland "very unhelpful". Truss and Šefčovič will meet again on February 11. [[File:Stroud Street Belfast 01.02.21.jpg|thumb|left|February 1, 2021 graffiti in Belfast opposes the "{{w|Irish Sea border}}" introduced as part of the Northern Ireland Protocol.{{image|[[:c:User:Whiteabbey|User:Whiteabbey]]}}]] Unionist politicians have made their position on the Protocol clear. Following Givan's resignation, DUP party leader Sir {{w|Jeffrey Donaldson}} said it "represents an existential threat to the future of Northern Ireland's place within the Union". He added the UK government has not held up the {{w|New Decade, New Approach}} agreement that was the basis for the DUP re-entering the Executive in January 2020. The deal ended a three-year impasse in power-sharing between Sinn Féin and the DUP following the {{w|Renewable Heat Incentive scandal}}. The ''{{w|Irish Independent}}'' understands the statement and time of Givan's resignation was confirmed in a meeting between high-ranking DUP members earlier on Thursday. Poots's decision to suspend sanitary and phytosanitary checks not imposed by December 31, 2020 allegedly followed legal advice which "concluded that I can direct the checks to cease in the absence of Executive approval". Although the UK government has said it will not intervene in a "matter for the Northern Ireland Executive", it faced criticism as "a breach of international law" by Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs {{w|Simon Coveney}}. Šefčovič called it as "essential" that checks are still being conducted, while a spokesperson on Johnson's behalf expressed support for "a swift resolution." {{haveyoursay}} == Sources == *{{source |url = https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/feb/03/northern-ireland-first-minister-poised-to-quit-over-brexit-reports-say |title = Northern Ireland first minister resigns over Brexit checks on goods |author = Lisa O'Carroll |pub = The Guardian |date = February 3, 2022 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20220203190055/https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/feb/03/northern-ireland-first-minister-poised-to-quit-over-brexit-reports-say }} *{{source |url = https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/politics/dups-paul-givan-resigns-as-first-minister-of-northern-ireland-in-brexit-protocol-protest-as-sinn-fein-calls-for-early-election-41307670.html |title = DUP’s Paul Givan resigns as first minister of Northern Ireland in Brexit Protocol protest, as Sinn Féin calls for early election |author = David Young, Jonathan McCambridge, Philip Ryan |pub = Irish Independent |date = February 3, 2022 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20220203190137/https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/politics/dups-paul-givan-resigns-as-northern-ireland-first-minister-as-taoiseach-brands-it-very-damaging-move-41307670.html }} *{{source |url = https://www.rte.ie/news/ulster/2022/0203/1277530-paul-givan/ |title = Paul Givan resigns as NI First Minister |author = Vincent Kearney |pub = Raidió Teilifís Éireann |date = February 3, 2022 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20220203190228/https://www.rte.ie/news/ulster/2022/0203/1277530-paul-givan/ }} *{{source |url = https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/statement_22_787 |title = Statement by Vice-President Šefčovič following his videoconference with the UK Foreign Secretary on the implementation of the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland |author = Maroš Šefčovič |pub = European Commission |date = February 3, 2022 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20220203190323/https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/statement_22_787 }} *{{source |url = https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2022/0202/1277443-ni-checks/ |title = UK Government will not intervene in order to halt NI Protocol checks |author = Vincent Kearney |pub = Raidió Teilifís Éireann |date = February 2, 2022 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20220203190459/https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2022/0202/1277443-ni-checks/ }} {{Publish}} {{Archived-cc-2.5}} [[Category:Northern Ireland]] [[Category:Ireland]] [[Category:Economy and business]] [[Category:Europe]] [[Category:European Commission]] [[Category:Boris Johnson]] [[Category:United Kingdom]] [[Category:Politics and conflicts]] [[Category:2016 UK EU referendum]] [[Category:COVID-19]] [[Category:JJLiu112 (Wikinewsie)]] [[Category:Liz Truss]] [[Category:Sinn Féin]] [[Category:Democratic Unionist Party]] [[Category:Great Britain]] [[Cagegory:Brexit]] 88jjecfn9tbkeho4wwxrso5dqabbmnd 2 2947552 5009532 4676323 2026-04-17T21:44:09Z Green Mostaza 415381 update 5009532 wikitext text/x-wiki {{#babel:es|en-5}} Welcome to my user page.

LCWW is an organisation whose stated goal is to "increase the visibility of all CATS, educating EVERYONE to do their part with the overwhelming rescue situation, preserving our breeds and protecting our ethical breeders, all while organizing ground-breaking interactive Cat Extravaganzas in a city near you". Other Cat Extravaganzas this year were scheduled for the [[United Kingdom]]'s {{w|Doncaster}}, {{w|Maidstone}}, [[Liverpool]] and [[Scotland]], while [[Peru]], the [[United States]], [[Japan]], the [[Philippines]], [[Taiwan]] and [[Colombia]] were to host others. By April, videos of the events had amassed at least millions of views on {{w|TikTok}}. {{clear|left}} ==Interview with Steven Meserve== {{WNI first question}} '''What prompted the founding of LCWW?''' {{WNIR|Steven Meserve}} Loving Cats Worldwide was founded to increase the visibility of all cats! Dogs have taken centre stage for too long and it's time for cats to be put into the spotlight! There isn't enough education around cat ownership, or awareness for the overwhelming rescue population, so in 2015 I began Loving Cats to make a real difference and put all cats onto a global stage. {{WNIQ}} '''I see on your website that you support "ethical breeding". How would you define that term?'''' {{WNIR|Steven Meserve}} For any breeder to be ethical they{{sic}} must go through proper genetic and health testing, keep their cats in excellent condition and research all there is to know about their breed. Potential cat owners must also do their due diligence when purchasing a kitten. Ethical breeders will ensure their kittens are vaccinated with a {{w|rabies}} {{w|Rabies vaccine|vaccine}}, {{w|Microchip implant (animal)|microchipped}}, {{w|Deworming|[de]wormed}}, {{w|flea}} treated, and {{w|Neutering|neutered/spayed}} before going to their new home (once the kitten is a minimum of 13 weeks old). {{WNIQ}} '''What steps does your organisation take to promote ethical breeding?''' {{WNIR|Steven Meserve}} We have a strict set of guidelines for any breeder to be associated with LCWW, and at lcwwgroup.com you will find a database of ethical breeders named 'LCWW Cats and Kittens'. Loving Cats is a hub of information and advice, we create informative content and give huge visibility to these issues across our digital platforms. For anyone wanting more information, we're available to give advice over email or social channels! {{WNIQ}} '''There's a common saying on social media, "adopt don't shop". How do you feel about this mentality?''' {{WNIR|Steven Meserve}} Adopt Don't Shop and Pedigree Cats have always been opposing ideas. I believe we are the first company ever to be bridging the gap! There is definitely a space for both, working alongside the rescue and adoption centers is the most effective way to make an impact. We have an informative video about our stance on Adopt Don't Shop on our [[YouTube]] channel! {{WNIQ}} '''What does your organisation hope to achieve with Cat Extravaganzas?''' {{WNIR|Steven Meserve}} At a Cat Extravaganza and Rescue Awareness Events visitors can support local charities and rescues, witness an International Cat Competition, see the most beautiful cats in the world strut the cat walk, see who wins in Best in Show, learn all about cats and more, and get their own furry friend a gift from our amazing shopping village! With every Cat Extravaganza we help more people come to love and appreciate these amazing animals in a deep and meaningful way, and strengthen our goal to increase the visibility of all cats worldwide. {{WNIQ}} '''For your upcoming Birmingham event, why did you choose to host at the National Exhibition Centre?''' {{WNIR|Steven Meserve}} We are so proud and excited to be bringing the Birmingham Cat Extravaganza and Rescue Awareness Event to the NEC this December 2-3. The NEC is one of the most incredible venues in the UK and we are so excited to be there! It is of course also home to the amazing {{w|Crufts}}, but now it's time for cats! {{WNIQ}} '''What do you see in the future for your organisation?''' {{WNIR|Steven Meserve}} We will provide continued support to local rescues, charities, and for ethical breeders. We also hope to continue to grow the Meserve foundation mission by education and implementation, to reduce the numbers in need and ensure a brighter future for all cats. {{haveyoursay}} == Sources == {{interview}} *{{source |url = https://lcwwgroup.com/events |title = Events Calendar |author = |pub = Loving Cats Worldwide |date = August 2, 2023 (date of access) |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20230802132123/https://lcwwgroup.com/events }} *{{source |url = https://secretmanchester.com/manchester-cat-extravaganza/ |title = This Huge Cat Extravaganza That's Taken Over TikTok Is Coming To Manchester |author = Alice Lorenzato-Lloyd |pub = Secret London |date = April 28, 2023 |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20230802132121/https://secretmanchester.com/manchester-cat-extravaganza/ }} == External links == *[https://lcwwgroup.com/ Loving Cats Worldwide], official page *{{source |url = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMEcC-yw7Ro |title = Let's talk CATS!

''Wikinews'' reporter Ash Thawley attended on the second day, August 27, from 11:00 {{w|British Summer Time|BST}} (1000 {{w|UTC}}) to 14:00 BST (1300 UTC). === Exhibitions === [[File:Animeleague Birmingham 2023 Stalls 1.jpg|The central alley of the Exhibition Hall. {{image|Ash Thawley}}|thumb|200px|left]] The convention's Exhibition Hall featured crystals for sale, and both it and the second-floor Banqueting Suite hosted anime and video game memorabilia for sale. Also on sale in the latter were {{w|J-pop}} merchandise, swords &mdash; including ''{{w|katanas}}'' &mdash; and doughnuts. {{w|Cats Protection}} was in attendance in the Exhibition Hall. The second-floor 1882 Suite had events, video and {{w|tabletop game|tabletop}} gaming areas, an Animeleague merchandise desk, and a rest area. === Meowgical Rosie === [[File:Animeleague Birmingham 2023 Stalls 6.jpg|Meowgical Rosie's stall in the Banqueting Suite. {{image|Ash Thawley}}|thumb|200px]] On August 26, [[Inverness]], [[Scotland]]-raised {{w|Japanese idol|J-pop idol}} Meowgical Rosie performed at the convention. Rosie answered ''Wikinews''' emailed queries after it ended. {{WNIQ|Wikinews}} '''What inspired you to get into your subgenre?''' {{WNIR|Meowgical Rosie}} I discovered J-pop music and idol culture on the internet one day, and I instantly fell in love. The cute outfits and upbeat songs made me so happy, and I wanted to share that happiness with everyone. It was very different from everything I had been used to up until that point, as I was a slightly tomboyish child, but when I felt the energetic cheerful vibes of J-pop music for the first time I knew in my heart that it was the path I was meant to follow. {{WNIQ}} '''"Meowgical Rosie". What's the story behind the name?''' {{WNIR|Meowgical Rosie}} I've always been a huge lover of cats, so I knew I wanted to incorporate that somehow. I also wanted to encompass that joyful, almost magical feeling I get from J-pop. The word 'meowgical' seemed to have that vibe I was going for, and my name is Rosie, so I became Meowgical Rosie! {{WNIQ}} '''What do you hope to accomplish with your music?''' {{WNIR|Meowgical Rosie}} One of the biggest messages I try to share is to not be afraid to follow your dreams and to do what makes you happy. Too often I see and hear of people making fun of others for having unconventional hobbies and interests &mdash; it happened to me when I was first starting out as a performer, a lot of people made fun of me for it. It breaks my heart to hear of those who have given up the things that bring them joy because of taunting and bullying. I feel as long as it's harmless, we should be able to enjoy the things that make us happy without fear of what other people think. But of course, I understand it isn't always easy to have the confidence to do so, and that's why I want to help others find that confidence in themselves like I did! I hope that as a performer, I can inspire others like me to be unashamed to follow their hearts and their dreams. {{WNIQ}} '''Was this your first time at Animeleague Birmingham? Do you plan to come back?''' {{WNIR|Meowgical Rosie}} It was not my first time there, I've performed at that event a few times now and it's always such an energetic crowd! Some have come to my performances on multiple occasions now and it's always wonderful to see familiar faces, but also meet new ones each time I'm there! I definitely hope to return next time. === LELE === [[File:LELE Birmingham Animeleague Stall Summer 2023.jpg|thumb|200px|left|LELE poses with her stall.{{image|Ash Thawley}}]][[File:Animeleague Birmingham 2023 LELE.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Con-goers watch LELE enter the stage.{{image|Ash Thawley}}]] At 12:00 BST (1100 UTC) on August 27, LELE performed at the convention. LELE, a J-pop idol who has performed in [[Australia]], [[Japan]], and the [[United Kingdom]], has released a few albums and {{w|extended plays}}, as well as three {{w|single (music)|singles}}. LELE answered ''Wikinews''' emailed questions after the convention concluded. {{WNIQ|Wikinews}} '''What inspired you to get into music?''' {{WNIR|LELE}} I come from a very musical background, both of my parents are musicians and myself and my siblings are also musically trained. However, I didn't actually begin to take music seriously as a career choice until I was about 20. I've always been a huge fan of anime and it was actually the opening theme songs that inspired me to begin singing in Japanese. I wanted to write and produce music that I enjoyed listening to myself, but I also wanted to write something that sounded like it could be a 'theme song'. Often when I write music, I create an anime in my head that would fit with it and it sort of helps to keep me writing within a theme. {{wikt|TL;DR}}: Anime. {{WNIQ}} '''Do you have a favourite song of yours?''' {{WNIR|LELE}} At the moment it would be my most recently released song, Hello Goodbye. You can listen to it [...] on {{w|Spotify}}[.] I feel immensely proud of it. When I write music, I'm a bit of a perfectionist and if I can't make it sound the way I hear it in my head – sometimes I'll end up shelving a song for months – even YEARS, before I decide that it's worth working on again. But with Hello Goodbye, I wrote it, recorded it and polished it off in thirteen hours from start to finish! Everything sounded right to me. When I wanted to add in a little chime or jingle here and there to fill out the sound, it fit in just right. I really feel like this song was meant to be written the exact day I wrote it. But that might just be some 'musician superstition'. {{WNIQ}} '''Was this your first time at Animeleague Birmingham, and do you plan to come back?''' {{WNIR|LELE}} I believe this may be the fourth performance I've done in Birmingham and I certainly do have plans to come back and perform here again! I love the energy here, everyone gets involved and it makes the show that much more enjoyable! {{WNIQ}} '''What is the best part about performing?''' {{WNIR|LELE}} For me, the best part is when the crowd joins in. I love it so much and it gives me such an energy boost when people come up to dance with me at the front of the stage. Historically I've performed in clubs and music festivals, so the convention scene was very different for me with the crowd sitting in chairs rather than standing up and dancing. I always encourage my viewers to come and join me, jump around, be silly and let loose..{{sic}} because I just want everyone to have as much fun as I am! {{WNIQ}} '''What are your plans for the future?''' {{WNIR|LELE}} My plans include more live shows, both local{{sic}} within the UK and internationally&mdash; I have another six or seven shows this year, and still in the process of organising my 2024 performance schedule! I'm also collaborating with some other international artists and producers, so please keep an eye out for those announcements! === Quizzes === The event's "Big Gaming Quiz" was to occur at the same time as LELE's performance. By 12:32 (1132 UTC), an anime opening quiz had started, giving attendees ten seconds of audio to guess which opening it was from, after which the answer and video would be revealed. Some attendees sang along. === D. C. Douglas === [[File:Animeleague Birmingham Summer 2023 D C Douglas.jpg|thumb|200px|D. C. Douglas answering questions from the audience.{{image|Ash Thawley}}|left]] At 13:15 BST (1215 UTC) August 27, a questions-and-answers session started with actor {{w|D. C. Douglas}}. Voice actor Elsie Lovelock was originally to take questions as well, but she was unable to attend the convention "due to personal commitments", stated the organisers. The first question from an audience member was, "What was your favourite line in {{w|JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (TV series)|JoJo}}?" He responded, "Well, it was in [the introduction video]. There are kids here! It's the line where... well... [...] he answers why he's obsessed with hands, and you finally find out what it is. [...] So, because of the {{w|Mona Lisa}}, her hands, that's why he's obsessed with hands, because it gave him a {{wikt|boner}}... anyway, on the {{w|Blu-ray}} it's uncensored". Another question was how his family reacted to his first role. He answered, "first off, my family's always known that I've wanted to be an actor since I was seven years old, so I was doing theatre at twelve, and they knew I was going to go to [[Los Angeles|L.A.]] [Los Angeles] eventually." === Mi Yo Ri === [[Hong Kong]]er Mi Yo Ri performed at 15:30 BST (1400 UTC) August 27. She spoke with ''Wikinews'' later. {{WNIQ|Wikinews}} '''This was your first performance outside of Bristol, right? How did that feel? Were you nervous?''' {{WNIR|Mi Yo Ri}} Right[!] I'm feel[ing] really excit[ed] as this is my first performance outside of Bristol and I['m] also worry[ing] about my performance. [A f]ew years ago, I had hurt my {{w|anterior cruciate ligament|[a]nterior [c]ruciate [l]igament}} and I hurt it again lest two week {{sic}}, so I had [to] change my setlist urgently. I'm worry[ing] about my perform[ance] as I had not enough time to [prepare]. I never though[t] people [would] enjoy my performance. I had a good time [with] my performance. {{WNIQ}} '''So you performed with that injury? That's really impressive. Do you think you'll come back to perform in Birmingham again?''' {{WNIR|Mi Yo Ri}} Yes, I will[!] === Other events === [[File:Birmingham Animeleague Summer 2023 1882 Suite.jpg|thumb|200px|Con-goers watch an anime screening (foreground, left) and play tabletop games (background).{{image|Ash Thawley}}]] On August 26, [[Cardiff]]-based {{w|J-rock}} {{w|cover band}} Nattoheads and [[rap]]per Shao Dow were scheduled to perform on the convention's main stage. That day, the panels stage was to feature another questions-and-answers session with D. C. Douglas which Lovelock was originally to participate in, along with panels on "{{w|TikTok}} & {{w|Cosplay}}" &mdash; many cosplayers, dressed up as characters from video games, anime, and {{w|vocaloid}}, attended the convention &mdash; and the history of video gaming.

''Wikinews'' reporter Ash Thawley spoke with David Rock, a [[University of Birmingham]] student living in {{w|Selly Oak}}, after he rode the extension on September 17 from around 16:30 to 17:30. The new segment, in the Metro's Zone 4, splits from an existing line after {{w|The Royal tram stop|The Royal}}. The terminus of that line, {{w|Wolverhampton St George's tram stop|Wolverhampton St George's}}, is to remain in use, with "[e]very other Metro [terminating there] as part of a 'shopper's service'", according to the Midland Metro Alliance. The organisation cited the "convenient location close to Wolverhampton's shopping district" as a reason to keep that stop operational. The stop was to close until "later this autumn" for work, according to a press release from the West Midlands Metro. The extension was originally to be finished in 2019, but faced delays. The Metro said its service's extension to {{w|Brierley Hill}} was now a focus. == Interview with Rock == {{WNIQ|Wikinews}} '''How do you think this extension will impact the people who live [along] the Metro?''' {{WNIR|David Rock}} I think it makes the tram a more attractive option as there is now better {{w|Intermodal passenger transport|multi modal}} integration of public transport. The {{w|Wolverhampton bus station|bus station}} was previously closest to Wolverhampton's train station but now the tram serves the station directly, so anyone living or working near the tram route now has a greater incentive to tram in rather than [ride] the bus if their onward journey includes {{w|heavy rail}}. {{WNIQ}} '''There's currently the tram extension underway from {{w|Wednesbury}} to Brierley Hill, do you expect that that will have a big impact too?''' {{WNIR|David Rock}} Probably in absolute terms it will significantly contribute to the local economy, but I think proportionally not so much. {{w|Dudley}} already has good bus links to Wolverhampton and [[Birmingham]], the tram line will not take a direct route to either of the big cities as it must pass through Wednesbury. One benefit of the tram is decreased impact of traffic, but the tram is much more expensive than the bus so I don't know how it will affect intra-{{w|Black Country}} journeys. {{WNIQ}} '''Do you think the fare price of the system is something the council should be mindful of?''' {{WNIR|David Rock}} Absolutely. Better {{w|integrated ticketing|fare integration}} is essential! Today I paid {{w|British pound|£}}5.00 for an all-zone {{wikt|off-peak}} day ticket on the tram only. On the train it costs between £5.20 and £6.90 for a return (or between £3.40 and £4.55 with a {{wikt|railcard}}) and takes approximately ⅓ of the time. As you can see, for Birmingham ↔ Wolverhampton journeys there is little incentive to take the tram. The main target market of the tram, though, is to serve communities between Wolverhampton and Birmingham such as {{w|West Bromwich}} and {{w|Handsworth, West Midlands|Handsworth}}. An all-day bus pass costs £4.00 (or £2.00 for a single) so one would have to have a good reason to take the tram as it is more expensive than the bus at £4.10 for, [in] any two zones, [a] day ticket or £4.60 for any three zones. Better fare integration, such as a [[London]]-style {{w|Oyster card|touch-in/touch-out system}} would work better... this is what the {{w|Swift card}} should be used for. Today I opted to buy just an all-day ticket on the tram, and I chose to walk seven miles to and from the tram stop as I didn't want to pay the extra money for a bus fare. Better integration might have meant I chose to spend a little more for the added convenience of a hop-on, hop-off network. {{WNIQ}} '''I see! Thank you for sharing your opinion. Is there anything you think {{w|Transport for West Midlands|TfWM}} [Transport for West Midlands] could be doing better more generally?''' {{WNIR|David Rock}} I think they're doing a good enough job, although to be honest I'm not very familiar with them as a company as I mainly use the train or the bus which is{{sic}} not fully under their jurisdiction. {{haveyoursay}} == Sources == {{Interview|medium=text}} *{{source |url = https://www.expressandstar.com/news/transport/2023/09/17/tram-extension-to-wolverhampton-railway-station-finally-opens-to-the-public/ |title = At last!

To commemorate this day, ''Wikinews'' caught up with professional juggler Spencer Androli and talked to him about his history with this art and to discuss an accolade recently bestowed on him via YouTube where he was named top juggler on a top-40 list. [[File:Juggling balls.jpg|right|thumb|350px|File photo of juggling balls. {{image credit|[[commons:User:Soulkeeper|Soulkeeper]]}}]] <br> {{Culture and entertainment}} {{WNIQ|Wikinews}} Hey Spencer, hope you are doing well! I do a bit of reporting at ''Wikinews'' I've been involved there for many years. So, this will become part of an interview with you. Tell me about this Number 1 juggler on a list of 40 stuff. :'''Spencer Androli''': Thank you so much for reaching out and creating an article on my accomplishments. About the number 1 spot: <br> Luke Burrage is the organizer of the Top 40 Jugglers of the Year Chart. It is a chart in the juggling community that has been running since 2003. Concluding each year, in December, jugglers in the community vote for their top 10 favorite jugglers of the year in the comment section of a YouTube video that Luke posts to announce that the voting is open. All the votes get counted up by Luke, creating the Top 40 most voted of the jugglers mentioned in those comments.<br>I managed to become the most voted for juggler by the juggling community of this past year 2023. This list is truly an honor to have been ranked #1 on because it shows the juggling community's appreciation for the juggling I do. This is for sure a popularity contest but it's definitely something I've worked hard for my whole juggling career. My younger self wouldn't have expected this due to so many jugglers being insanely good but only the most recognized receives this spot. To be recognized this way for what I do is truly unreal.<br> This is definitely one of my proudest accomplishments up to date and may be the biggest accomplishments a person in the online juggling community can receive. <br> Hopefully this has given you enough information. Feel free to ask any questions you need for clarification. {{WNIQ}} So, it's a designation, 'by jugglers for jugglers' so speak? :'''SA''': Yes the Top 40 is by jugglers and for jugglers mainly. {{WNIQ}} How old were you when you started juggling? :'''SA''': I was eight years old when I started juggling. {{WNIQ}} So, last year was pretty exciting for you! Tell me about the whole circus thing you became involved with. :'''SA''': The circus was quite an experience of all sorts. I hopped on the Flynn Creek Circus tour from June to October of 2023 which toured through Northern California and Oregon. I really enjoyed it! I was so happy to be finally showing what I’ve worked on for so many years, to people on stage on a consistent basis. I gave it my all on stage and had so much fun. There is something special about performing that I have come to love. I feel like I have the best job in the world because I am bringing genuine joy to people in all walks of life. What is unique about Flynn Creek Circus is that one of its main goals is to bring circus to people in the rural areas of California and Oregon. Based off of the audience responses, Flynn Creek definitely executes it well. Most of the people in these rural areas don’t see much of any live entertainment in their day to day life, so these shows were often a break from the norm. The shows feel really special because people love it and it often makes their year distracting them from the normal day to day. It was a physically taxing contract in which I learned so much about things like building a tent, towing a trailer, living in a mobile home, performing, and working hard. As my first circus contract, it really showed me how much I enjoy performing and bringing joy to others through my art of juggling. {{WNIQ}} You did some performing for a while in the Tyler, Texas area, didn't you? :'''SA''': Yes, I did. I performed for a while doing gigs locally in Tyler whenever the opportunities presented themselves as well as surrounding areas like Shreveport, Dallas, Houston, etc. I also was a part of the juggling duo with my friend Paul Haygood known as the Spence and Paul Show that performed 45-60 minute educational and motivational juggling show in several schools as part of Young Audiences of East Texas, a non profit organization that strives to bring education through the arts to schools. We also took The Spence and Paul Show to Dickens on the Strand street festival in Galveston as well as a few other events that weren’t only schools. {{haveyoursay}} == Sources == <!--Use at least two independent sources.--> * {{source|url=https://nationaltoday.com/international-jugglers-day/|title=International Jugglers Day – April 18, 2024|author=|pub=National Today|date=April 24, 2024 (date of access)}} * {{source|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4si4QsK8gkE|title=The Top 40 Jugglers of 2023|author=Luke Burrage|pub=YouTube|date=January 22, 2024}} * {{source|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3Cd9s_y0D0|title=The Top 40 Jugglers of 2023 - Voting Closed!!!|author=Luke Burrage|pub=YouTube|date=December 12, 2023}} *{{source|url=https://tylerpaper.com/news/local/tyler-juggling-duo-set-to-perform-the-spence-and-paul-show-this-weekend/article_953f822a-e513-11ed-af0d-bfaa46819b6a.html|title=Tyler juggling duo set to perform The Spence and Paul Show this weekend|author=Jessica T.

The challenge was to finish the obstacle course as fast as possible. � :Wikinews :🚩 Fraudulent Records Appeared After hours of practice, Quinten set a fast time of 5:48.96 — which he believed should be the record. However, just before the event deadline, three other accounts suddenly posted times about six seconds faster, an improvement that was mathematically impossible under normal gameplay for a run that already had “optimized every corner and jump.” � :Wikinews :🔍 Investigation and Evidence Rather than accepting defeat, Quinten launched a detailed investigation into the suspicious runs. His findings included: � :Wikinews :Impossible badge timestamps: Some accounts unlocked badges out of logical order, suggesting teleports or hacks. � :Wikinews :Missing game-verified indicators: Legitimate runs automatically award a special Guinness World Record gold medal accessory — the suspicious accounts lacked it. � :Wikinews :Expired/inconsistent inventory items: Some accounts held items that shouldn’t have been attainable then, hinting at script-enabled unlocks. � :Wikinews :Video and frame-by-frame analysis: Quinten calculated theoretical minimum times based on physics and showed the suspect runs were too fast to be real. � :Wikinews :🏆 Guinness Reinstates the True Record Armed with this technical evidence, Quinten submitted a report to Guinness World Records. After reviewing it internally, Guinness disqualified the fraudulent times and officially validated Quinten’s run as the true world record, awarding him the certificate. � :Wikinews :🎮 Significance This story highlights how a dedicated player used data analysis and meticulous investigation to hold others accountable for cheating and help a major record-keeping organization correct its listings — showing that even in gaming communities, evidence and integrity can make a difference. � :Wikinews :If you want more details on how Quinten proved the fraud mathematically or what skills he used, I can break that down too!

The challenge was to finish the obstacle course as fast as possible. � :Wikinews :🚩 Fraudulent Records Appeared After hours of practice, Quinten set a fast time of 5:48.96 — which he believed should be the record. However, just before the event deadline, three other accounts suddenly posted times about six seconds faster, an improvement that was mathematically impossible under normal gameplay for a run that already had “optimized every corner and jump.” � :Wikinews :🔍 Investigation and Evidence Rather than accepting defeat, Quinten launched a detailed investigation into the suspicious runs. His findings included: � :Wikinews :Impossible badge timestamps: Some accounts unlocked badges out of logical order, suggesting teleports or hacks. � :Wikinews :Missing game-verified indicators: Legitimate runs automatically award a special Guinness World Record gold medal accessory — the suspicious accounts lacked it. � :Wikinews :Expired/inconsistent inventory items: Some accounts held items that shouldn’t have been attainable then, hinting at script-enabled unlocks. � :Wikinews :Video and frame-by-frame analysis: Quinten calculated theoretical minimum times based on physics and showed the suspect runs were too fast to be real. � :Wikinews :🏆 Guinness Reinstates the True Record Armed with this technical evidence, Quinten submitted a report to Guinness World Records. After reviewing it internally, Guinness disqualified the fraudulent times and officially validated Quinten’s run as the true world record, awarding him the certificate. � :Wikinews :🎮 Significance This story highlights how a dedicated player used data analysis and meticulous investigation to hold others accountable for cheating and help a major record-keeping organization correct its listings — showing that even in gaming communities, evidence and integrity can make a difference. � :Wikinews :If you want more details on how Quinten proved the fraud mathematically or what skills he used, I can break that down too!

The challenge was to finish the obstacle course as fast as possible. � :Wikinews :🚩 Fraudulent Records Appeared After hours of practice, Quinten set a fast time of 5:48.96 — which he believed should be the record. However, just before the event deadline, three other accounts suddenly posted times about six seconds faster, an improvement that was mathematically impossible under normal gameplay for a run that already had “optimized every corner and jump.” � :Wikinews :🔍 Investigation and Evidence Rather than accepting defeat, Quinten launched a detailed investigation into the suspicious runs. His findings included: � :Wikinews :Impossible badge timestamps: Some accounts unlocked badges out of logical order, suggesting teleports or hacks. � :Wikinews :Missing game-verified indicators: Legitimate runs automatically award a special Guinness World Record gold medal accessory — the suspicious accounts lacked it. � :Wikinews :Expired/inconsistent inventory items: Some accounts held items that shouldn’t have been attainable then, hinting at script-enabled unlocks. � :Wikinews :Video and frame-by-frame analysis: Quinten calculated theoretical minimum times based on physics and showed the suspect runs were too fast to be real. � :Wikinews :🏆 Guinness Reinstates the True Record Armed with this technical evidence, Quinten submitted a report to Guinness World Records. After reviewing it internally, Guinness disqualified the fraudulent times and officially validated Quinten’s run as the true world record, awarding him the certificate. � :Wikinews :🎮 Significance This story highlights how a dedicated player used data analysis and meticulous investigation to hold others accountable for cheating and help a major record-keeping organization correct its listings — showing that even in gaming communities, evidence and integrity can make a difference. � :Wikinews :If you want more details on how Quinten proved the fraud mathematically or what skills he used, I can break that down too!

[[User:Tduk|Tduk]] ([[User talk:Tduk|talk]]) 14:57, 1 April 2026 (UTC) {{collapse|Alright, I want to welcome everybody. This is Downtown Music Gallery. We have music here every Tuesday starting at 6.30. This has been going on for more than 25 years. Usually three bands. Over the last couple of years I've decided to do some more kind of thematic evenings. So tonight we have eight vocalists that are going to be singing for us. It's going to be a different night than what we usually have and I'm really glad about that. I prepared a little introduction that has to do with the history of jazz vocals and vocals in general. And it starts, you have to picture this, we're going to go back in time 315,000 years. That's considered to be the dawn of mankind. We're in North Africa, there is a tribe or whoever was there at the time. They're descendants of Adam and Eve. They're walking across the desert very slowly. This is before language, so the only sounds that they're able to create are vocal sounds without words. So this is how it starts. And they make their way, and they end up later became Israel and they grew over time until they became 12 tribes and then each one of those tribes left and one stayed in Israel and the rest of them traveled to different places on this planet. The last tribe ended up in the US in the Midwest. They're called the Lost Tribe of Israel and they became the first Native Americans And it took about 50,000 years for those tribes to evolve into having people all around our planet. And many languages came out of that. Every country, like 100 countries, each one had their own language. And every country, those languages would be hundreds of dialects. So you have all different types to the beginning of songs, vocal songs first, and then eventually percussion instruments, flutes, stringed instruments, and we're gonna move forward to the beginning of the 20th century. Between 1900 and 1920, this is like in the US, you have vaudeville bands, the very beginning of what became Dixieland and jazz. You also had kind of folk stuff going on. And as far as classical composers go, Igor Stravinsky and Béla Bartók and Edgar Varese composed pieces in the late teens and 20s, and that's kind of a beginning of, you know, all the pre-20th century classical stuff is more kind of melodic and easier to deal with, but when Stravinsky composed Rites of Spring, it was very violent. It had dancers dressed as animals, and people went wild when this music occurred. They flipped out, they couldn't deal with it, it was too much for them. So in their 20s, This is what happened. Duke Ellington's band moved from DC to New York. Count Basie's band moved from Kansas City to New York. And you had the beginning of an era called the big band era. And that existed from late 20s to around 1945. You had hundreds of big bands that would travel around the country and play. This was a form of entertainment for people. People would get together and they would dance. to see these big bands. My parents used to go out dancing on weekends in the 40s and check out these big bands. And there were a lot of them. And I've been listening to more and more just to get an idea of how things unfolded. And a lot of those big bands had singers in them. You probably know a few of the singers like Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, people like that. And that era existed for about 20 years. And then when World War II happened and the world kind of changed in a lot of ways, all the big bands started to break up and stop playing. And when people got back from World War II, you had a new form of music that had occurred. And these were members of Billy Eckstine's big band, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Max Roach, all these people. And they started something which was called Bebop. And the bebop was a small group thing. It was hard to play. It's very complex. And it was the first time that music, jazz music, was not about dancing and entertainment. It was about sitting and listening, snapping your fingers, creating poetry. And it affected other things, too. So dance, abstract art, all these things sort of came out of that. You had this hipster language that came out of the bebop thing. We'll hear Buddy Lauren doing some hipster language during his set, maybe. Who knows? And in 40, so we had the bebop thing. Now, that lasted approximately 10 years. And in 1949, you have a session called Earth of Cool. That's Miles Davis, Jerry Mulligan, Lee Konitz, Lenny Tristano. And that was another break from what the bebop thing was about. It was a cooler form. of jazz. And the weird thing was, those beboppers that we talked about who created the cool things, that was an East Coast thing, but the cool thing became more popular on the West Coast. So you had a whole West Coast school in the 50s of all those people doing the cool school stuff. Now also in the 50s, Dizzy Gillespie put together a big band. And in his big band, four members of his big band were John Lewis, Bill Jackson, Connie Kay, and Percy Heath. They started a quartet called the Modern Jazz Quartet. Now the thing about them is they wore tuxedos. They didn't want to play in bars. They wanted to be taken more seriously. So that is the beginning of another form of sort of jazz. And Dizzy Gillespie Big Band did a song called A Bird in Igor's Yard. That was written by George Russell. And it was supposed to be a blend of Charlie Parker and Igor Stravinsky. So a term was coined for that music. It was called third stream. It was coined by Gunther Schuller. So in the 50s, you had the end of bebop. You had the next phase of that, which is called hard bop. which is like bebop but with a little bit of funk in there. And you had people who invented that were Art Blakey and Horace Silver. So the 50s, let's talk about the 50s. The 50s, a lot of different changes in music were going on. You had some blues cats coming up from down south and making their way to Chicago and playing blues. You had R&B guys doing their thing. You had pop singers. You had also country and rockabilly. Elvis Presley comes from all those elements, including gospel. That's all part of his thing. And in 1959, this was a very important year. Three records came out that changed the future of jazz. One was Kind of Blue by Miles Davis Sextet, I guess, which is great. And it had this thing called modal jazz, which opened up the form to be a little bit freer. You had another record by the Dave Brubeck Quartet called Time Out. And that record included songs in weird time signatures. You had Blue Mondewala Turk and Take Five. So that is another kind of more progressive element that was very popular at the time. And another record that came out that year that wasn't noticed at the time was Sun Ra's record Jazz and Silhouette, which is a big band record, but it's very progressive. And then in California, you had Ornette Coleman Quartet, who moved to New York in 1960. They played for a month at the Five Spot. And when they played, it was very controversial. because no piano player, their music is very kind of free and open, and half the people who went to the gigs hated it, and the other half of the people loved it. And there was fighting going on about if it was important music or not, or if it was really jazz. All those arguments are going on. The same period of time, John Coltrane was playing in Miles Davis' quartet, and his solos were getting longer and longer. And he met up with John Gilmore, who was the sax player in Sun Ra's band, who was playing with multiphonics. And this is an early way of getting weird sounds on the sax that are now part of the vocabulary of the saxophone. So Coltrane is playing these long solos, and Miles said, you know, we're going on tour in Europe, 1960, and Trane says, I don't want to tour. I want to start my own band and I want to do my own thing." And Miles begs him, please go on tour. So he goes on tour for 60. After he does that tour, he starts his own quartet. And his own quartet's Elvin Jones, Jimmy Garrison, and McCoy Tyner. And so between 60 and 64 you have a freer form of jazz that's now coming out. Now also during that period of time you have the beginning of what we call protest singers. So you had like Woody Guthrie and then Pete Seeger and then you had Bob Dylan and these are people that wrote lyrics that talked about social justice and civil rights. This is a very important thing because it was a way of expressing how you felt and if you felt the world was unjust and you wanted to deal with it. I remember when I was at day camp, I was about eight years old, and I had to learn the words to Blown in the Wind by Bob Dylan, which is made popular by Peter, Paul, and Mary. And I learned the words, and I remember thinking to myself, this is fascinating. These words actually make me think about the unfairness of the world and what we can do about it. And I realized how much lyrics and voices really affected the way I saw the world. Before I started reading newspapers, music was the one thing that spoke to me. And the more music I listened to, the more different types of music I listened to, all those things were part of my understanding of the world. I discovered a band called The Mothers of Invention when I was 13. That's Frank Zappa's band, and Frank Zappa had this view about the unfairness of society. He wrote a song called Trouble Every Day. It's a long protest song. I haven't memorized, but I'm not going to do it now because this is more about other people tonight. No, no, no. I'll do it. I've done it here once, and I'll do it again. But it's very long. But I think it's an important thing. Now, the vocal thing. this is all changing over time we have jazz vocalists singing with big bands singing on the road and then in the sixties people start experimenting with their voices uh... so you have people like gene lee uh... who else? harry woodard jay clayton yes I mean, a lot of these people I got to know in the 70s. I remember seeing, late 70s, Ellen Christie. She was at a jam session I was at in New Jersey, and she was great. And I didn't know who she was. And Lisa Sokoloff, I remember seeing. I saw Jean Lee play a bunch of times, because I was friendly with her, and Gunther Hoppel. But I've always been attracted to vocalists, strong vocalists, and also vocalists who take chances and learn how to do different things with their voices. So we're going to celebrate vocalists tonight. We have eight of them that are going to be playing in four sets. All of them are different. They're all coming from different places. They're all going to speak to us in different ways. I'm glad to see more people here than what we usually have. I think that's a beautiful thing. I'll do more thematic things in the future. And I want to thank all you people out there for showing up. And the first set is going to start. And Skylar here, he was here on Saturday night with a band. And man, he blew me away. He is really something else. That's all I'm going to say. }}[[User:Tduk|Tduk]] ([[User talk:Tduk|talk]]) 15:21, 1 April 2026 (UTC) :sent to scoop [[User:Tduk|Tduk]] ([[User talk:Tduk|talk]]) 00:30, 2 April 2026 (UTC) : Four emails were received via Scoop, collectively containing four MP3 audio files.

Please wikilink or clarify. :2. Can "The venue was so highly attended that the entire store was full, and people were watching from outside the entrance to the store." be worded to clarify: is this normally the case for such events at this space? :3. What is an 'experimental vocalist'? Please clarify. :4. Can the time when the event started, and when it ended, be included either in the first or in the second paragraph? :5. Is the website being a pest, or are images only 100px wide? I suggest using the gallery tag to include images at the end of the story in full size. Often the widths parameter is set to at least 800px and the heights parameters is set to 600px (correct me if i am wrong; check the photo essay category for previous submissions). :6. The long quote included in article which is more than 80% of it is there like if it was released under creative commons. Did the speaker confirm the licensing properly beyond saying 'sure, put it in Wikinews if you want'? :This is not an actionable note, I think the image quality or post processing could be improved. Like this camera does not cope very well with darker environment. :As noted previously, it is better to report on this much sooner after it happened. I suggest that you team up with a friend to help you with transcription and write-up. This can be either IRL friend or an online peer who is responsive and is accurate and understands, or wants to understand, what needs to be done. It would be ideal if submissions did not occur two weeks after the event each time. :I think items 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 can be addressed before publishing. Hope this makes sense. :Many thanks.

And his own quartet's Elvin Jones, Jimmy Garrison, and McCoy Tyner. And so between 60 and 64 you have a freer form of jazz that's now coming out.

And the more music I listened to, the more different types of music I listened to, all those things were part of my understanding of the world. I discovered a band called The Mothers of Invention when I was 13. That's Frank Zappa's band, and Frank Zappa had this view about the unfairness of society. He wrote a song called Trouble Every Day. It's a long protest song. I haven't memorized, but I'm not going to do it now because this is more about other people tonight. No, no, no. I'll do it. I've done it here once, and I'll do it again. But it's very long. But I think it's an important thing. Now, the vocal thing. this is all changing over time we have jazz vocalists singing with big bands singing on the road and then in the sixties people start experimenting with their voices uh... so you have people like gene lee uh... who else? harry woodard jay clayton yes I mean, a lot of these people I got to know in the 70s. I remember seeing, late 70s, Ellen Christie. She was at a jam session I was at in New Jersey, and she was great. And I didn't know who she was. And Lisa Sokoloff, I remember seeing. I saw Jean Lee play a bunch of times, because I was friendly with her, and Gunther Hoppel. But I've always been attracted to vocalists, strong vocalists, and also vocalists who take chances and learn how to do different things with their voices. So we're going to celebrate vocalists tonight. We have eight of them that are going to be playing in four sets. All of them are different. They're all coming from different places. They're all going to speak to us in different ways. I'm glad to see more people here than what we usually have. I think that's a beautiful thing. I'll do more thematic things in the future. And I want to thank all you people out there for showing up. And the first set is going to start. And Skylar here, he was here on Saturday night with a band. And man, he blew me away. He is really something else. That's all I'm going to say. }}[[User:Tduk|Tduk]] ([[User talk:Tduk|talk]]) 15:21, 1 April 2026 (UTC) :sent to scoop [[User:Tduk|Tduk]] ([[User talk:Tduk|talk]]) 00:30, 2 April 2026 (UTC) : Four emails were received via Scoop, collectively containing four MP3 audio files.

Here are the fixed versions of three paragraphs: Now also in the 50s, Dizzy Gillespie put together a big band (The Modern Jazz Sextet). And in his big band, four members of his big band were John Lewis, {Milt Jackson, Connie Kay}, and Percy Heath. They started a quartet called the Modern Jazz Quartet. Now the thing about them is they wore tuxedos. They didn't want to play in bars. They wanted to be taken more seriously. So that is the beginning of another form of sort of jazz. The same period of time, John Coltrane was playing in Miles Davis' sextet, and his solos were getting longer and longer. And he met up with John Gilmore, who was the sax player in Sun Ra's band, who was playing with multiphonics. And this is an early way of getting weird sounds on the sax that are now part of the vocabulary of the saxophone. So Coltrane is playing these long solos, and Miles said, you know, we're going on tour in Europe, 1960, and Trane says, "I don't want to tour. I want to start my own band and I want to do my own thing." And Miles begs him, please go on tour. So he goes on tour for 60. After he does that tour, he starts his own quartet. And his own quartet's Elvin Jones, Jimmy Garrison, and McCoy Tyner. And so between '60 and '64 you have a freer form of jazz that's now coming out. Now, the vocal thing. This is all changing over time as we have jazz vocalists who were singing with big bands singing on their own and then in the sixties people started experimenting with their voices uh... so you have people like Jeanne Lee uh... who else? (audience: Harry Woodward) Jay Clayton, yes, I mean, a lot of these people I got to know in the 70s. I remember seeing, late 70s, Ellen Christi. She was at a jam session I was at in New Jersey, and she was great. And I didn't know who she was. And Lisa Sokolov, I remember seeing.

The account becomes [[Wikinews:Autoconfirmed users|autoconfirmed]] (I believe that happens after four days)<br>2.

[[File:Selection feminine.jpg|thumb]] On 15 April 2026, Brazil defeated Zambia in a thrilling 6-1 thrashing. Zambia's and Brazil's national teams have been on a similar run of form, with Zambia having 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in their last five matches, whilst Brazil have 3 wins and 2 losses in their last five. Only being 1-0 at the break, Brazil then went on to score five. When Zambia's first-choice goalkeeper Nali got a red card, Zambia were reduced to 10 women. Zambia's Banda scored their only goal in the 51st minute, whilst Brazil's scorers were {{w|Yasmim}} (30'), {{w|Tainá Maranhão}} (47'), {{w|Angelina (footballer)|Angelina}} (60' pen), {{w|Raissa Bahia}} (77'), {{w|Kerolin}} (90'+1) and {{w|Vitória Calhau}} (90'+6 pen). Two of Brazil's goals were from penalties. Nali's red card was likely the reason Zambia got thrashed so hard. {{Haveyoursay}} == Sources == * {{source | url = https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/live/cwywre0w7d7t | title = Brazil vs Zambia: Friendlies Women stats & head-to-head | author = BBC | pub = BBC Sport | date = April 15, 2026 | archiveurl = }} *{{source |url = |title = |author = |pub = |date = |archiveurl = |medium = }} [[Category:Sports]] [[Category:Football (soccer)]] [[Category:Football match reports]] [[Category:Brazil]] [[Category:Zambia]] g0g40w45vw1o619kc6oi0zsd0w2o6xr 0 3092019 5009412 5008559 2026-04-17T15:24:47Z Metropolitan90 314212 /* Sources */ ce 5009412 wikitext text/x-wiki {{Tasks|news|src|re-review}} {{date|April 15, 2026}} Brooklyn mob figure Dean “Knuckles” Prestia, a reputed captain in the Genovese crime family, walked free after a racketeering trial ended in acquittal, delivering a sharp setback to prosecutors who had tried to tie him to organized crime activity in New York City. Prestia, long described by law enforcement and criminal-world sources as a violent and ruthless presence in Brooklyn, had been facing serious allegations tied to violent racketeering and other underworld conduct. Prestia, who has been linked to the Genovese family for decades, built a reputation around intimidation and toughness, earning the nickname “Knuckles.” Public reporting describes him as a Brooklyn-based figure with ties to organized crime in both Brooklyn and Long Island, and one account says he was the subject of an FBI probe in early 2026 involving waste, demolition, and towing companies. In the broader federal crackdown on Mafia activity in the region, prosecutors have repeatedly argued that organized crime families use violence, fear, and clandestine business fronts to control revenue streams. The acquittal marks a notable win for Prestia and his defense, especially given the government’s long-running focus on dismantling the Genovese organization’s rackets in New York. Even so, the verdict does not erase the decades of allegations, associations, and notoriety that have followed him through Brooklyn’s organized-crime landscape. '''Background''' Dean Prestia is widely identified in public reporting as “Dean ‘Knuckles’ Prestia,” a Genovese crime family figure associated with Brooklyn. Sources describe him as having spent years around mob-connected figures and later rising within the organization. He has also been mentioned in connection with past organized-crime prosecutions involving extortion and conspiracy-related conduct. '''Trial outcome''' The racketeering case ended with Prestia being acquitted, allowing him to avoid conviction on the charges brought against him. That outcome stands in contrast to the federal government’s continuing efforts to target Mafia leadership and associates through racketeering cases in New York. For prosecutors, the loss underscores how difficult it can be to secure convictions in complex organized-crime cases, especially when evidence is built around association, reputation, and coded conduct rather than direct public acts. '''Mob reputation''' Prestia’s name has long carried a reputation for violence and ruthlessness in Brooklyn’s underworld circles. Reporting linked to his background describes him as someone who moved through mob networks from a young age and became associated with hardened figures in the Genovese orbit. In organized crime reporting more broadly, violence remains a central tool of enforcement and intimidation, even as some families try to avoid public attention {{haveyoursay}} == Sources == * {{source | url = https://medium.com/@m14399833/case-collapses-alleged-genovese-captain-cleared-of-violent-racketeering-charges-dd9c550186b4 | title = Case Collapses: Alleged Genovese Captain Cleared of Violent Racketeering Charges | author = Marissa Monroe | pub = Medium | date = April 15, 2026 | archiveurl = | lang = | medium = }} *{{source|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/23/nyregion/nba-gambling-mafia-gambino-genovese-bonanno-luchese.html |title=New York City’s Mob Families Are Still in Business |author=William K.
