My book was the standard reference of the 1980s on the New Age Movement. I disagree with Mr. Van Nattan on many items, including what I consider Catholic bashing. For anything written by him to be imputed to me is untrue and unfair. This is as logical as SqueakBox imputing to me every IP address disagreeing with SqueakBox from anywhere in Michigan (i.e. Allen Park, Michigan, where I have probably been maybe 3 to 4 times in my career as a lawyer and no other contact certainly I have no IP address emanating from Allen Park, Michigan. The Detroit metropolitan area has at least 3.5 million residents. Equally ridiciulous is imputation to me of things fro Reston, Virgina, and his biggest stretch was that if it came from Toronto, it had to be Cumbey as that is ``so close to Detroit``. Clearly his major was not USA geography. As far as ``original research`` my research on Solana was all culled and distilled from other works. Synthesizing this is what encyclopedic research is about. I don't know what SqueakBox is talking about as original research. Does he mean I went to Solana's house and office and took physical measurements.

His rebutal has not to my knowledge been published in a peer reviewed journaland my opinion, as a PhD candidate, is that it is riddled with enough errors of logic as to not even merit consideration as reasonable dissent. Unfortunately, Mr. Walker is so obscure, I can't find anyone who has taken the time to critique him in a peer reviewed journal eitherwhich isn't surprising given that his paper was never published in an accepted journal. As much as I'd like to include some real argument against the commonly held position of economists, I don't think this Tom Walker stuff passes muster to merit inclusion. I intend to delete the paragraphs relating to him. I invite people to come forward with information suggesting that * Tom Walker is actually a figure of merit, qualified to have so much prominence in this article. * has published his rebutal in a generally accepted peer reviewed journal Also, if people have any replacement suggestions.

12,796,708	` == Movie reviews and POV == (I posted this on TheGrza's talk page and am also posting it here as it deals with some of the issues you raise) ::`` The POV is inherent in these type of reviews the same way Christian reviews are bound by their ideology instead of actually critiquing a film`` TheGrza, I think you misunderstand our POV policy which applies to the content of the articles only, not to external links. First of all if we did not allow POV in external links we'd have to remove half the external links in Wikipedia. Secondly, all film reviews are, by definition, POV (I don't know of any reviews that don't express an opinion) so we'd have to remove all links to film reviews if NPOV applied to external links. We don't remove links simply because of the politics of the site linked to. I think you also misunderstand the concept of ``vandalism``. We can't simply throw around the term to justify removal of any material we don't like. It applies specifically to activity that disrupts wikipedia or disrupts an article. I've seen MIM reviews quoted in Harper's so they are actually relatively well known if only for their amusement value. There is no reason why we shouldn't have external links to Christian film reviews or Marxist film reviews. A broad variety of links is encouraged. What's discouraged are repetitive links to similar material (eg reviews from a dozen daily newspapers would be repetitive). As to your point about ideology, I don't know if you've ever studied film theory in university or read academic journals on film such as cahiers des cinema but serious film criticism does actually deal with ideology, subtext etc and is not just the ``thumbs up`` ``thumbs down`` type review you see in a newspaper. By your argument we couldn't link to serious scholarly articles on films, many of which ``deconstruct`` films from a Marxist, feminist, postmodern, or other ideological perspective. For instance, Susan Sontag's important and influential writings on film would be banned, by your argument, as they are ideological in nature and explore the subtext of films rather than simply being a technical critique. Hope this clarifies things. ::Specifically to Curps, while I agree that linking to hundreds of mainstream reviews would be repetitive I see no problem with listing to a variety of reviews from different mainstream and non-mainstream viewpoints. Whether or not a review is listed on ``Rotten Tomatoes`` is not really relevent as that site really only deals with popular mainstream reviews. Indeed, by your criteria we could not link to serious scholarly critiques of films carried in scholarly journals. We do not determine the worthiness of links by how mainstream or popular they are.

When the European invaders first reached China, their point of reference was mostly Cantonese, hence place names like Peking, Nanking and Canton.

12,848,563	` : I agree that some of the examples here are somewhat fluffy. But emergence means slightly different things in different fields. For example, while physicists use the term emergence, it doesn't have the same hype attached to it as the term does in the behavioural sciences. It's simply used to mean a phenomenon or concept which only makes sense, or behaves in an expected way, at macroscopic scales (in space or time) but not at microscopic scales. Thus questions like ``is this electron hot or cold? blue or green? soft or hard? smooth or rough? solid or liquid?`` have little or no useful meaning, because these concepts are emergent and thus do not apply in this setting (or if they do apply, they behave unexpectedly and so one's intuition on the concept may be very misleading here). That's a helpful thing to keep in mind, it lets one avoid any number of elementary errors when trying to understand particle physics, and thus does have a non-trivial amount of explanatory power. As for mathematics (which is my own profession), I've almost never seen the term ``emergence`` used... the closest analogues seem to be the distinction between ``local`` and ``non-local`` (or ``global``) concepts, or between ``asymptotic`` and ``non-asymptotic`` behaviour. It is true, I would classify most of the mathematical examples here as examples of non-local concepts rather than emergent ones. If I have some time I might try to rework some of the mathematical material (which I was not involved in earlier). `	2,005	true	article	random	train	false

12,861,625	I hate to disagree with you Ran but that is completely incorrect, the Chinese vernaculars did not start shifting at that time. You can do more research by looking up Middle Chinese and Classical Chinese. The Mandarin never altered the King sound to Jing sound as quickly as that. Most of the colonial invasion came from the Southern Coasts in those days, thus, they romanised from Cantonese and Minnan. Kirin is romanised according to the dialect around Jilin at a different stage that is why it is not calle Katlam. By the way, you are really offensive by blocking me yesterday. You did not read the regulations on Wikipedia that you are not supposed to call users who are newbies Vandals. That is an abuse of your privilege.

Mandarin is a group of dialects in itself i.e. Mandarin in itself is French in Paris, French in Avignon with thick Italian accent and French with the Quebecois accent whereas Standard Mandarin is BBC Received Pronuciation of English, no one's mother tongue but it is a Received Standard. However, I see the frustration with this categories too. I think it is best to translate beifanghua literally as Northern Speech (Mandarin dialects) . Putonghua as Common Speech (Mandarin-Received Pronunciation), Guoyu as National Language (Mandarin-Received Pronunciation), Beijinghua or Jingyu as Beijing Speech or Imperial Tongue (Mandarin, prestige-variant).	2,005	false	article	blocked	train	false

They are also not all romanised according to English. The British invaders came the last. They were first romanised by an Italian Missionary called Ricci and then by the French missionaries. That is why Guangdong is written as Canton. Canton was never meant to be an English romanisation. If you pronounce it in French, it sound exactly like the Cantonese pronunciation of it, even today. Same thing for Peking and Nanking. When you pronounce them in French, Italian, they sound more like the original Cantonese vernacular variant.

12,881,685	I agree with you. I am a Chinese contributor to this site and I speak 3 Chinese vernaculars and 3 European languages and through some of the unreasonable Mandarinization imposed here, I feel how repressed non-native Mandarin speakers are by those apparently native speakers. Traditionally, foreign names are transliterated into Chinese ideographs by whichever vernacular group that first settled there. In USA and Europe, it is mostly by the Cantonese, then subsequently The Minnan-Taiwanese and recently the people for Fuzhou, Wenzhou etc. As such, they will use Han ideographs to represent the sounds they transliterate from the foreign language like English. There is no standardised version until the Northerners came into power and imposed Mandarin on all the other Chinese groups for the noble mission of reuniting the motherland against foreign invaders through bettering communication. I think the best way to transliterate and reflect the diversity of Chinese culture is to put the actual foreign name first, i.e. the ORIGINAL, followed by the oldest transliteration (in chronology) and finally the Mandarin version. That will make it easy for everyone cos then the eyes will zoom right to the end for the contemporary Mandarin pronunciation and zoom right to the first line for the original and if readers have time, they can trace the colorful history of transliteration and migration by reading the chronology of changes.

`NOT BELOW IS ANOTHER OF SQUEAKBOX'S LIES AND MISREPRESENTATIONS: I have absolutely no control over what others put on their board. What Mr. Van Nattan writes are his own thoughts. My book was the standard reference of the 1980s on the New Age Movement. I disagree with Mr. Van Nattan on many items, including what I consider Catholic bashing. For anything written by him to be imputed to me is untrue and unfair. This is as logical as SqueakBox imputing to me every IP address disagreeing with SqueakBox from anywhere in Michigan (i.e. Allen Park, Michigan, where I have probably been maybe 3 to 4 times in my career as a lawyer and no other contact certainly I have no IP address emanating from Allen Park, Michigan.

I don't know what SqueakBox is talking about as original research. Does he mean I went to Solana's house and office and took physical measurements.

If you have any idea of what Blank's Pond is, you know what I mean by sewage accumulation pond. All it is is a muddy puddle about 5 feet wide and 10 feet long. Maybe it was once used for ecological studies, but not in 10 years. Many parts of the original article drastically misrepresent what TAS is. There is no olympic sized swimming pool, the library is not close to rivaling that of a small liberal arts college. I just come to spread the truth. Allentchang, the point is that there are a rather large number of crimes at TAS versus the rest of the Taiwanese schools and it has often been the subject of Taiwanese media. I don't see how you can deny that. Yes, a lot of students go to the UC system, but that doesn't really say a lot, considering how poor the American education system is compared to the Taiwanese one.

` ==Concerns over Tom Walker== A full two paragraphs is spent discussing Tom Walker's ``rebutal`` of the relatively common position that work-week restrictions are not effective against unemployment. I was instantly left wondering, who is Tom Walker. Tom walker turns out to be a social policy activist (Yes, I'm pretty sure I have the right Tom Walker). His rebutal has not to my knowledge been published in a peer reviewed journaland my opinion, as a PhD candidate, is that it is riddled with enough errors of logic as to not even merit consideration as reasonable dissent. Unfortunately, Mr. Walker is so obscure, I can't find anyone who has taken the time to critique him in a peer reviewed journal eitherwhich isn't surprising given that his paper was never published in an accepted journal. As much as I'd like to include some real argument against the commonly held position of economists, I don't think this Tom Walker stuff passes muster to merit inclusion. I intend to delete the paragraphs relating to him. I invite people to come forward with information suggesting that * Tom Walker is actually a figure of merit, qualified to have so much prominence in this article. * has published his rebutal in a generally accepted peer reviewed journal Also, if people have any replacement suggestions. Please speak-up. `

The series seems to indicate that the ancients were a galactic civilization that had colonies all over the Milky Way Galaxy. Then a plague struck them, and their population was decimated. The remaining ancients set out to repopulate their kind by 'seeding' worlds that could support life. Earth was the last of these worlds in the Milky Way galaxy that was 'seeded' before the ancients left for the Pegasus galaxy to continue their work.

` == Movie reviews and POV == (I posted this on TheGrza's talk page and am also posting it here as it deals with some of the issues you raise) ::`` The POV is inherent in these type of reviews the same way Christian reviews are bound by their ideology instead of actually critiquing a film`` TheGrza, I think you misunderstand our POV policy which applies to the content of the articles only, not to external links. First of all if we did not allow POV in external links we'd have to remove half the external links in Wikipedia. Secondly, all film reviews are, by definition, POV (I don't know of any reviews that don't express an opinion) so we'd have to remove all links to film reviews if NPOV applied to external links. We don't remove links simply because of the politics of the site linked to. I think you also misunderstand the concept of ``vandalism``. We can't simply throw around the term to justify removal of any material we don't like. It applies specifically to activity that disrupts wikipedia or disrupts an article. I've seen MIM reviews quoted in Harper's so they are actually relatively well known if only for their amusement value. There is no reason why we shouldn't have external links to Christian film reviews or Marxist film reviews. A broad variety of links is encouraged. What's discouraged are repetitive links to similar material (eg reviews from a dozen daily newspapers would be repetitive). As to your point about ideology, I don't know if you've ever studied film theory in university or read academic journals on film such as cahiers des cinema but serious film criticism does actually deal with ideology, subtext etc and is not just the ``thumbs up`` ``thumbs down`` type review you see in a newspaper. By your argument we couldn't link to serious scholarly articles on films, many of which ``deconstruct`` films from a Marxist, feminist, postmodern, or other ideological perspective. For instance, Susan Sontag's important and influential writings on film would be banned, by your argument, as they are ideological in nature and explore the subtext of films rather than simply being a technical critique. Hope this clarifies things. ::Specifically to Curps, while I agree that linking to hundreds of mainstream reviews would be repetitive I see no problem with listing to a variety of reviews from different mainstream and non-mainstream viewpoints. Whether or not a review is listed on ``Rotten Tomatoes`` is not really relevent as that site really only deals with popular mainstream reviews. Indeed, by your criteria we could not link to serious scholarly critiques of films carried in scholarly journals. We do not determine the worthiness of links by how mainstream or popular they are. Rather we look for diversity of opinions in our links. `

The basis of the equivalence principle is Einstein's 1907 vision that gravitational interaction is mediated by changing the rate of time, by curving space-time geometry. Then and only then can the effects of acceleration cancel the effects of gravitation. Everything else follows from that. Every interaction has a mediator.

When the European invaders first reached China, their point of reference was mostly Cantonese, hence place names like Peking, Nanking and Canton.

` : I agree that some of the examples here are somewhat fluffy. But emergence means slightly different things in different fields. For example, while physicists use the term emergence, it doesn't have the same hype attached to it as the term does in the behavioural sciences. It's simply used to mean a phenomenon or concept which only makes sense, or behaves in an expected way, at macroscopic scales (in space or time) but not at microscopic scales. Thus questions like ``is this electron hot or cold? blue or green? soft or hard? smooth or rough? solid or liquid?`` have little or no useful meaning, because these concepts are emergent and thus do not apply in this setting (or if they do apply, they behave unexpectedly and so one's intuition on the concept may be very misleading here). That's a helpful thing to keep in mind, it lets one avoid any number of elementary errors when trying to understand particle physics, and thus does have a non-trivial amount of explanatory power. As for mathematics (which is my own profession), I've almost never seen the term ``emergence`` used... the closest analogues seem to be the distinction between ``local`` and ``non-local`` (or ``global``) concepts, or between ``asymptotic`` and ``non-asymptotic`` behaviour. It is true, I would classify most of the mathematical examples here as examples of non-local concepts rather than emergent ones. If I have some time I might try to rework some of the mathematical material (which I was not involved in earlier). `

I hate to disagree with you Ran but that is completely incorrect, the Chinese vernaculars did not start shifting at that time. You can do more research by looking up Middle Chinese and Classical Chinese. The Mandarin never altered the King sound to Jing sound as quickly as that. Most of the colonial invasion came from the Southern Coasts in those days, thus, they romanised from Cantonese and Minnan. Kirin is romanised according to the dialect around Jilin at a different stage that is why it is not calle Katlam. By the way, you are really offensive by blocking me yesterday. You did not read the regulations on Wikipedia that you are not supposed to call users who are newbies Vandals. That is an abuse of your privilege.

I know what Ran is saying and though Ran has been quite annoying to me, Ran is right in this. Mandarin is a group of dialects in itself i.e. Mandarin in itself is French in Paris, French in Avignon with thick Italian accent and French with the Quebecois accent whereas Standard Mandarin is BBC Received Pronuciation of English, no one's mother tongue but it is a Received Standard. However, I see the frustration with this categories too. I think it is best to translate beifanghua literally as Northern Speech (Mandarin dialects) . Putonghua as Common Speech (Mandarin-Received Pronunciation), Guoyu as National Language (Mandarin-Received Pronunciation), Beijinghua or Jingyu as Beijing Speech or Imperial Tongue (Mandarin, prestige-variant).

. It is Nanking and Peking, not Pakking and Namking because you are confusing these early romanisations with the Jyut Ping which is a later linguistic invention. They are also not all romanised according to English. The British invaders came the last. They were first romanised by an Italian Missionary called Ricci and then by the French missionaries. That is why Guangdong is written as Canton. Canton was never meant to be an English romanisation. If you pronounce it in French, it sound exactly like the Cantonese pronunciation of it, even today. Same thing for Peking and Nanking. When you pronounce them in French, Italian, they sound more like the original Cantonese vernacular variant. Do not be so quick to dismiss what you do not know or understand because one day when you need someone to understand you when you are old ugly and lonely, others will also dismiss you in the same way

== Header enforcement == I wouldn't know exactly what percentage of likeness that must hold to delete a comment that has been altered. It's actually easier to just ensure that the bot itself tries to avoid inserting the comment twice. I could have the bot make a special pass to do that... but how I dealt with it on the other pages was that I didn't care since the bot would empty the sandbox and rake it clean. In the case of the Introduction page, I can have the sandbox rake it of similar-like comments... I would need some idea what I'm looking for really, it would be slightly difficult to do... just a lot of regular expression matching.

` ::Definitely, I agree with you, Rhobite. I think I've sniffed your scent around here before. Have I? Probably. I like the sonic feeling of typing and reading ``Rhob``. It gives one pause for thought. Pretty sure I've already decided to perceive that you mean well. ::Guess I'd only say in response that you just happened to perchance upon mid-stream. My story always has a PG ending. It almost, but not quite allways, has a non-PG anti-ending. But surely, you are right and poite to make your point, especially as you've made it. I will still continue on my little path for tonight, which will include removing the shit that you so rightfully objected to. When I do, I will take care (albeit boldly) to remove your well-justified smackdown. ::rhobite.. hmm.. seem to remember thinking well of that name. ::-:)b`

I agree with you. I am a Chinese contributor to this site and I speak 3 Chinese vernaculars and 3 European languages and through some of the unreasonable Mandarinization imposed here, I feel how repressed non-native Mandarin speakers are by those apparently native speakers. Traditionally, foreign names are transliterated into Chinese ideographs by whichever vernacular group that first settled there. In USA and Europe, it is mostly by the Cantonese, then subsequently The Minnan-Taiwanese and recently the people for Fuzhou, Wenzhou etc. As such, they will use Han ideographs to represent the sounds they transliterate from the foreign language like English. There is no standardised version until the Northerners came into power and imposed Mandarin on all the other Chinese groups for the noble mission of reuniting the motherland against foreign invaders through bettering communication. I think the best way to transliterate and reflect the diversity of Chinese culture is to put the actual foreign name first, i.e. the ORIGINAL, followed by the oldest transliteration (in chronology) and finally the Mandarin version. That will make it easy for everyone cos then the eyes will zoom right to the end for the contemporary Mandarin pronunciation and zoom right to the first line for the original and if readers have time, they can trace the colorful history of transliteration and migration by reading the chronology of changes. Thank you for being so interested in Chinese culture. We need more friends like you. Have a nice day.

Hello Ran Thanks for the comprehensive message justifying your pride in the Northern China. I find all your articles on China very selective and BIASED and your block people whose opinions and facts of China confirm otherwise. I won't block you because I am better than that. This is the EXACT SAME KIND OF MANDARIN CHAUVINISM that has MASSACRED many intellectuals on the Mainland through brute force. I must say that it is disgusting. You do not represent Chinese people and the facts that you substantiate are paramount to propaganda. Stop posting messages on your site and I won't do the same to you. I am not interested in your pages. Thank you very much.

:If you haven't seen an admin agree with me then you simply are not paying attention. See above where I quote one. See the page history where one makes the changes I made earlier and told you you were wrong. See your talk page where they tell you you are wrong. See the page with the false vandalism report you tried to file on me and their responses. Someone would have to be pretty blind to miss all of those.

== Singapore / Chongqing == Hi Ran, I noticed that your blocks violates many of the wikipedia policies. According to Wikipedia policies, a user is not supposed to block another user's right to contribute new facts and POV are supposed to be signaled to a committee for a NEUTRALITY dispute. And vandalism requires votes. I have therefore notified the Board of Administrators about this. Please refrain from blocking new users, also known as newbies, and refrain from posting on the Singapore page and please keep your comments to the Chongqing page. Your co-operation in this serious violation issue is highly appreciated, failing which legal action shall be taken.
