IEG Interview scheduling

Hello, Alphama,

I've tried to contact you a couple of times over the last week via the email address you provided in your IEG proposal, but I haven't yet been able to get a hold of you. I'd like to schedule an interview with you for next week to ask you some questions about your project. I need you to provide a working email address as soon as you possibly can to mjohnsonwikimedia.org so we can set up a time that works for both of us.

Warm regards,

--Marti (WMF) (talk) 22:48, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

Contact WMF

Please contact WMF at grantsadminwikimedia.org as soon as you can. We have tried to contact you via two email addresses a few times but have not heard back from you yet. Since your IEG proposal is being considered for grant funding, we first need to determine if you are indeed eligible to receive a grant, so we need some more information about you to determine your eligibility. Please check your inbox or spam folder for an email from grantsadminwikimedia.org and reply with the information requested. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. -- Thank you, Jtud (WMF) (talk) 02:37, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

Inspire Campaign on content curation & review

I've recently launched an Inspire Campaign to encourage new ideas focusing on content review and curation in Wikimedia projects. Wikimedia volunteers collaboratively manage vast repositories of knowledge, and we’re looking for your ideas about how to manage that knowledge to make it more meaningful and accessible. We invite you to participate and submit ideas, so please get involved today! The campaign runs until March 28th.

All proposals are welcome - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Constructive feedback on ideas is welcome - your skills and experience can help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign to improve review and curation tasks so that we can make our content more meaningful and accessible! I JethroBT (WMF) 05:38, 29 February 2016 (UTC)

Participate in the Inspire Campaign and help address harassment!

Through June, we’re organizing an Inspire Campaign to encourage and support new ideas focusing on addressing harassment toward Wikimedia contributors. The 2015 Harassment Survey has shown evidence that harassment in various forms - name calling, threats, discrimination, stalking, and impersonation, among others - is pervasive. Available methods and systems to deal with harassment are also considered to be ineffective. These behaviors are clearly harmful, and in addition, many individuals who experience or witness harassment participate less in Wikimedia projects or stop contributing entirely.

Proposals in any language are welcome during the campaign - research projects, technical solutions, community organizing and outreach initiatives, or something completely new! Funding is available from the Wikimedia Foundation for projects that need financial support. Constructive feedback on ideas is appreciated, and collaboration is encouraged - your skills and experience may help bring someone else’s project to life. Join us at the Inspire Campaign so that we can work together to develop ideas around this important and difficult issue. With thanks,

Purely out of interest

What is an "eliminator's" job role on vi-wiki?

I can imagine a couple of things that it's equivalent to, or it could be some completely different role, but thought I'd just ask out of interest. Nosebagbear (talk) 08:44, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

@Nosebagbear: Eliminators can block/unblock and delete content only (help to patrol content), including pages, templates, categories. Otherwise, sysops have more rights, including eliminators' rights and can block/unblock users and more. We use eliminator's role for those users who want to practice to be sysops in the future or he/she does not have any experience to deal with users' problems or simply does not want to solve problems related to users.

Xin bạn giúp mình với ạ.

Tạo một cuộc thi đăng ảnh minh họa

Chào bạn Alphama, một thời gian trước bạn có đề xuất một cuộc thi chụp ảnh nhưng không được thực hiện do quá khó. Đề xuất của tôi về cuộc thi viết bài tại Wikibooks cũng không thực hiện vì tôi không có thời gian và cũng chưa có kinh nghiệm. Nay tôi nghĩ thử làm một cuộc thi dung hợp cả hai: "Đăng ảnh minh họa cho Wikibooks".

Ban tổ chức sẽ soạn ra những chủ đề minh họa và mọi người sẽ tạo ra các hình, sơ đồ, bản đồ minh họa chủ đề đó. Hình minh họa có thể là AI hoặc tự thiết kế (hình tự thiết kế sẽ cao điểm hơn). Những người thắng cuộc thi sẽ được trao giải. Không biết quỹ có chấp nhận chi tiền cho cuộc thi có yếu tố AI không? Đức Anh (talk) 13:21, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

@Đức Anh Vấn đề AI không quan trọng mà quan trọng có vi phạm bản quyền hay không? Bạn có thể tập hợp đủ 3 và viết ý tưởng, nếu tôi thấy phù hợp sẽ xin giúp cho bạn.  A l p h a m a  ^Talk 15:14, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Những bức ảnh được tạo ra bởi AI sẽ được liệt vào chỗ "Phạm vi công cộng", theo tôi thấy trên Commons là thế. Còn các hình khác, tôi nghĩ chúng ta có thể phán đoán nó có vi phạm bản quyền hay không.

Về cuộc thi, mục đích là tạo ra các hình ảnh có giá trị cao về minh họa cho các sách tại Wikibooks bớt nhàm chán. Chúng bao gồm tranh vẽ, biểu đồ, bản đồ, sơ đồ,... được tự tạo bằng tay hoặc AI. Đức Anh (talk) 15:39, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

File:Thành trì phong cách Việt Nam xưa.png

Đây là hình minh họa do tôi tạo ra bằng AI. Nó có thể là một hình minh họa phù hợp cho những nội dung về lịch sử Việt Nam. Đức Anh (talk) 15:42, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Cái này gần giống WikiHow để vẽ minh họa đúng không, nếu có thể thì quá tốt, không riêng dành cho tiếng Việt mà có thể dùng chung các ngôn ngữ khác nữa.  A l p h a m a  ^Talk 15:42, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Vậy bạn nên viết 1 trang kế hoạch thực hiện đi.  A l p h a m a  ^Talk 15:43, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Do là tạo bằng AI không cần nhiều về trình độ thiết kế, chỉ cần có con mắt thẩm mỹ là được, cho nên tôi muốn tạo một cuộc thi thu hút khoảng 20 người. Và để như vậy thì có lẽ phải có một giải thưởng mới thu hút được. Bạn tính xem điều này nghe có khả thi không. Đức Anh (talk) 15:47, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

3-4 người thôi, bạn kiếm đâu ra 20 người, đâu phải ai cũng biết tạo ảnh bằng AI và rành Wiki mà tham gia vào đây.  A l p h a m a  ^Talk 15:57, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Cuộc thi này có mục tiêu kép, thứ nhất là tạo ảnh minh họa, thứ hai cũng là để quảng bá hình ảnh. Có thể chỉ có 3 - 4 người tham gia, nhưng theo tôi là sẽ thu hút đến hết cỡ, không giới hạn ở một lượng người. Với lại, cũng không chỉ tạo bằng AI, mọi người còn có thể tự mình tạo hình minh họa. Đức Anh (talk) 16:05, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Mấy cuộc thi lần đầu thường ít người lắm, bạn nên đặt quy mô nhỏ thôi.  A l p h a m a  ^Talk 16:22, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Tôi nghĩ điều đó không đáng bận tâm. Một việc quan trọng hơn là liệu quỹ Wikimedia có chi tiền cho những hoạt động này không. Không biết quy trình phê duyệt của họ là gì nhỉ. Đức Anh (talk) 16:31, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Bạn chỉ gần submit vào hệ thống năm ngoái nói bạn rồi. Tất nhiên là có, vì điều đó là hữu ích.  A l p h a m a  ^Talk 16:44, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Nếu tổ chức cuộc thi vẫn lại phải nhờ bạn submit rồi. Tôi chuẩn bị các câu hỏi để submit thì được, nhưng phần chứng minh danh tính thì vẫn còn vướng và phần điền thông tin tài khoản ngân hàng thì tôi chả biết điền những thông tin gì cho người ta. Đức Anh (talk) 15:15, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Nếu có phần gì muốn giấu thì bạn cứ email cho tôi.  A l p h a m a  ^Talk 16:27, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Tôi không giấu cái gì, chỉ là tận 6 tháng nữa tôi mới đủ 18 tuổi. Còn phần tài khoản ngân hàng thì tôi cũng không giấu, chỉ là không biết điền gì cho người ta thôi. Đức Anh (talk) 02:33, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Mary Nzimiro, birthname Mary Nwametu Onumonu, MBE (1898–1993) was a pioneering Nigerian businesswoman, politician and women's activist. In 1948, she was appointed principal representative of the United Africa Company (UAC) for Eastern Nigeria, while maintaining textile and cosmetics retail outlets of her own in Port Harcourt, Aba and Owerri. By the early 1950s, she was among the richest individuals in West Africa, becoming a resident of the exclusive Bernard Carr Street in Port Harcourt. On the political front, she was a member of the influential National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons, becoming a member of its executive committee in 1957 and vice-president of the NCNC Estern Women's Association in 1962. During the Nigerian Civil War (1967–1970), she organized Igbo women in support of the Biafrans. As a result she lost most of her property in Port Harcourt and returned to her native Oguta where she died in 1993.

Tôi nghĩ rằng, trang thảo luận của VTUG nên là để nhận thông tin từ WMF hoặc để thông báo cho cả nhóm về cập nhật nào đó. Vì thế, tôi đề xuất là: Di chuyển trang thảo luận hiện tại (hiện đang được dùng để thảo luận biên dịch) và các trang con của nó vào trang con của VTUG, tiêu đề do bạn đặt, với chức năng tắt đổi hướng bật (nếu bạn đồng ý tôi sẽ xử lý giúp bạn, do tôi có công cụ lùi sửa toàn cục).

@Uyngfe bạn nói vu vơ không đưa ra bằng chứng. Tôi không biết bạn có thù hằn gì với BQV trongphu nhưng tôi thấy những việc BQV này làm trước mắt không có một tí gì gọi là vu khống hay chụp mũ. Hãy cẩn trọng với những ý kiến mà bạn đưa ra. Trân trọng. Do Tri ✓ 💬 09:07, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Bạn đừng sợ nếu xử lý Phú thì sẽ mất các thành viên nhỏ tuổi. Uyngfe (talk) 10:05, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Xử lý Phú rất dễ. Chỉ cần một tiếp viên meta cấm Phú là xong. Phú ra meta kiện tụng cũng ko làm được gì vì người này từng chỉ trích meta rồi bị meta ghép tội vi phạm quy tắc đạo đức, đã vậy không chịu làm việc với meta. Họ vẫn còn ghim chuyện này. Chỉ cần Alphama nói một tiếng là họ cấm toàn cục. Việc này trong tầm tay Alphama. Phú mà dùng nick khác quay lại thì cứ xem là rối rồi block thôi. Uyngfe (talk) 10:45, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

@Uyngfe nghe có vẻ dễ xơi bạn nhỉ :) Do Tri ✓ 💬 10:48, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Dễ thì mời bạn làm mẫu trước cho mình được mở mang tầm mắt, được chứ nhỉ? Ăn nói xà lơ. Mạnh An (talk) 01:55, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Nếu Alphama ủng hộ phương án này ngay lập tức tôi đưa Phú ra meta vì lạm quyền. Việc của Alphama chỉ là mời 1 tiếp viên đứng ra xử lý vụ này thôi.Uyngfe (talk) 10:52, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Note: @Uyngfe: Những lời bạn nói trên là quá căn bản để đối đầu với việc này. Theo suy nghĩ của tôi thì việc hạ gục bác Phú là điều vô cùng khó do nhiều lý do:

1. Là một thành viên lâu năm có nhiều sửa đổi và kinh nghiệm.
2. Tôi chắc chắn BQV này được cả cộng đồng bảo hộ.
3. Có đàng hoàng quyền hành lớn trên hai dự án Wikipedia và Wiktionary tiếng Việt.

Điều căn bản như bạn đã nói "Chỉ cần một tiếp viên meta cấm Phú là xong. Phú ra meta kiện tụng cũng ko làm được gì" hay "Nếu Alphama ủng hộ phương án này ngay lập tức tôi đưa Phú ra meta vì lạm quyền. Việc của Alphama chỉ là mời 1 tiếp viên đứng ra xử lý vụ này thôi." thì không chỉ riêng mình Phú thôi đâu, nó sẽ chả dễ gì nếu như "những thành viên nhỏ tuổi" tức là cả cộng đồng lên tiếng instant phản đối kể cả khi Alphama có đồng ý hay không đi chăng nữa. Nếu bạn không tin thì cứ thử báo lên SRG xem tiếp viên nào sẽ dám khóa. Tôi đoán chắc rằng điều bạn nói trên là 100% vô hiệu, và tôi thấy việc sau khi bác Phú lên làm BQV thì Wikipedia tiếng Việt xuống dốc có tỉ lệ rất thấp. ☀DefenderTienMinh⛤☯☽ (talk) 11:16, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

@DefenderTienMinh07 Nghe qua cứ như bạn muốn hạ Phú :vvv Meiko 11:51, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

@Meiko21 nào nào ai lại đi nói toẹt ra thế cơ chứ meiko Do Tri ✓ 💬 11:52, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

@MTRIProd Chỉ là phán đoán Meiko 11:54, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Đừng sử dụng từ "bảo hộ", mà thay vào đó hãy sử dụng "tín nhiệm", "tin cậy" hoặc "tin tưởng". Không có cộng đồng nào ở đây để bảo hộ cho bất cứ thành viên nào cả. Nói tóm lại, ai làm sai điều gì, mức độ đến đâu, cộng đồng đều biết. Nếu Phú thực sự không thể làm tốt nhiệm vụ bảo quản Wikipedia nữa, dù có vững như kiềng ba chân, cũng bị bất tín nhiệm. Còn dăm ba người không hài lòng thì chẳng là gì cả. Không ai làm dâu trăm họ, làm vừa lòng tất cả mọi người được. @Uyngfe tốt nhất là không đóng góp được gì có ích cho Wikipedia thì nghỉ đi, chăm lo cho công việc, cho việc học của mình đi. Không chào! Mạnh An (talk) 02:01, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Nếu Alphama đồng ý thì tôi làm thôi. Các bạn cứ ra meta phản đối hay đồng loạt nghỉ chơi Wiki cũng được. Đâu ai cấm. Uyngfe (talk) 11:32, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Dùng Meta chỉ trong trường hợp phòng thân còn chấp nhận được (như biểu quyết Requests for comment/Sysop abuse on Vietnamese Wikipedia để tránh bị cộng đồng hiểu sai là rối của một ai đó) chứ việc lạm dụng Meta để hạ bệ người khác như thế khả năng vô hiệu như tôi nói trên "one hundred percent" ☀DefenderTienMinh⛤☯☽ (talk) 11:39, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Để xem ý Alphama thế nào chứ chờ Phú cùng đám đệ tử nghỉ thì sẽ lâu hơn cấm ngay bây giờ. Nhiều người đang chờ ku đó biến mất để quay lại lắm. TienMinh cũng là nạn nhân của ku Phú như Đại Việt Quốc, Triệu Thuận Sơn, Tuấn Minh... thì bênh hắn làm gì. Ku đó thì chỉ có đám nhóc con ủng hộ chứ đâu có quan hệ với meta như DHN, Alphama, Tuấn Minh. Sao nó có thể định hướng cho phong trào được.Uyngfe (talk) 11:41, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Tham gia các sự kiện của Wikimedia, quan hệ cá nhân với những người có trách nhiệm của tổ chức này... Alphama tham gia Wikipedia từ khi các bạn còn ở truồng tắm mưa. Alphama sợ nếu xử lý Phú thì các bạn bỏ đi thôi chứ xử lý rất dễ. Uyngfe (talk) 12:00, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Alphama sợ nếu xử lý Phú thì các bạn bỏ đi thôi chứ xử lý rất dễ? Ý bạn là sao? Wikipedia là bách khoa toàn thư và mọi người đều có thể tích cực sửa đổi. Hà cớ gì bạn phát ngôn ra câu như vậy? Do Tri ✓ 💬 12:02, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Lạm quyền thì nên bị xử lý. Không thể tùy tiện vứt bỏ hết mọi trụ cột của Wikipedia. Coi như cho các thành viên trẻ một bài học về chuyện này. Uyngfe (talk) 12:03, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Nhưng có một điều, tôi là thành viên đặc biệt chứ không phải là "thành viên trẻ" như bạn nói kia. Ý chí của bạn như thế là tôi thừa hiểu rồi. @Uyngfe Tôi "ủng hộ thầm" việc bạn đưa Phú ra SRG, nhưng ủng hộ sẽ khóa thì không nhé vì tôi "trung lập" và rất yêu mến cộng đồng Wikipedia. Nhưng nếu thất bại bạn cũng đừng buồn. Tin vui là tôi đã chuyển nhà sang Wikipedia tiếng Anh để sống và làm việc hiện nay hơn 1,7k sửa đổi trên đó rồi, tôi luôn đề cao tinh thần chống phá hoại mãnh liệt của mình và cộng đồng Wikipedia tiếng Anh trên đó, rồi có cái con bọ nào trên Wikipedia tiếng Việt sẽ dám dấn thân dùng Meta để hạ thấp tôi, tôi nói luôn không có đâu. ☀DefenderTienMinh⛤☯☽ (talk) 12:30, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Đang nói Trọng Phú. Uyngfe (talk) 12:36, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Từ ngày Trọng Phú quay lại đau nhất là Alphama. Các BQV khác bị truất phế thậm chí bị cấm cũng chẳng ảnh hưởng gì đến cuộc sống của họ. Alphama bị chụp mũ tham nhũng, dù đã được meta minh oan nhưng chắc uy tín cũng bị ảnh hưởng ít nhiều. Alphama cống hiến rất nhiều cho Wiki mà danh dự bị một đứa trẻ trâu chẳng có đóng góp gì đáng kể chà đạp thì rất đau. Chỉ có rối tọa sơn quan hổ đấu. Nếu cấm, khóa, xóa dữ quá thì họ nghỉ vài tuần hoặc vài tháng rồi quay lại. Bao nhiêu năm nay họ có sử dụng 1 tài khoản đâu. Phạm vi hoạt động của họ rất rộng. Canh bài này họ sửa bài khác Không ai có thể quản lý cùng lúc hàng trăm bài hay ngồi ở đây 24/24 cả đời để chống rối cả. Cứ cấm hoài thành nhìn đâu cũng thấy rối rồi cấm bậy. Wikipedia tiếng Việt ngày càng xuống cấp.Uyngfe (talk) 09:30, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Bạn cứ nhắn tiếp đi nhắn nhìu vô, nha vì hổng ai sẽ quan tâm bạn đâu. @TUIBAJAVE Bạn có muốn nói gì với rối Uyngfe này không, Kayani nay vẫn chưa chịu khuất phục cái ý chí vươn lên của mình vẫn hoạt động như thường ngày khi biết sẽ thất bại nên tôi gọi bạn đây coi xem sao. ☀DefenderTienMinh⛤☯☽ (talk) 10:30, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Alphama bị người khác chà đạp chỉ biết ôm mặt khóc thì tôi cũng đành chịu ko giúp được gì. Muốn phản công dễ mà. Tôi tin chắc Kay vẫn đang hoạt động bằng một tài khoản nào đó vì các bạn toàn cấm bậy. Có bao giờ cấm trúng đâu mà Kay nản lòng. Haiza. Giờ các bạn cứ canh me nick nào theo phong cách của Kay rồi cấm, ai sửa các bài mà Kay yêu thích thì cấm có điều Kay đâu ngu đến mức dễ bị bắt bài đến vậy. Uyngfe (talk) 10:36, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Tôi thấy nó dễ như đang đối đầu với võ sĩ có cầm một chiếc thanh gươm mang tên Đồ Long Đao ý, trông chả khó tí nào XD Kây cỏ xanh non toẹt đang mọc giữa vườn ấy Kay cái gì, thôi tôi đi đây ngồi đó mà mơ mộng. ☀DefenderTienMinh⛤☯☽ (talk) 10:50, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Chỉ có ISP mới biết Kay viết những gì còn những người kiểm soát ISP mới biết Kay là ai. Các bạn chẳng có cách nào kiểm soát nổi Kay. Tôi coi trong 10 tài khoản các bạn xem là Kay chỉ có 1 tài khoản là Kay thật. Nói chung là các bạn làm chuyện vô ích.Uyngfe (talk) 10:56, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

The winner this Translation of the week is en:Bhagavata Mela Please be bold and help translate this article! Bhagavata Mela is a classical Indian dance that is performed in Tamil Nadu, particularly the Thanjavur area. It is choreographed as an annual Vaishnavism tradition in Melattur and nearby regions, and celebrated as a dance-drama performance art. The dance art has roots in a historic migration of practitioners of Kuchipudi, another Indian classical dance art, from Andhra Pradesh to the kingdom of Tanjavur. The term Bhagavata, state Brandon and Banham, refers to the Hindu text Bhagavata Purana. Mela is a Sanskrit word that means "gathering, meeting of a group" and connotes a folk festival. The traditional Bhagavata Mela performance acts out the legends of Hinduism, set to the Carnatic style music.

In architecture, the Timurid dynasty patronized the construction of palaces, mausoleums, and religious monuments across the region. Their architecture is distinguished by its grand scale, luxurious decoration in tilework, and sophisticated geometric vaulting. This architectural style, along with other aspects of Timurid art, spread across the empire and subsequently influenced the architecture of other empires from the Middle East to the Indian subcontinent.

It has been known as the Washington Tondo and Cook Tondo after Herbert Cook, and this latter name in particular continues to be used over 50 years after the painting left the Cook collection.

At this meeting we will focus on the recent statement by the WMF Board of Trustees liaisons statement on the Movement Charter in which the liaisons stated that they will be recommending the Board of Trustees not to ratify the final draft of the Movement Charter. The community and affiliate votes on the ratification are supposed to start on Tuesday, 25 June. This meeting offers a venue to discuss the situation and formulate the "next steps".

Roller printing on fabrics is a textile printing process patented by Thomas Bell of Scotland in 1783 in an attempt to reduce the cost of the earlier copperplate printing. This method was used in Lancashire fabric mills to produce cotton dress fabrics from the 1790s, most often reproducing small monochrome patterns characterized by striped motifs and tiny dotted patterns called "machine grounds". Improvements in the technology resulted in more elaborate roller prints in bright, rich colours from the 1820s; Turkey red and chrome yellow were particularly popular.

The India naming dispute in 1947 refers to the argument over the use of the name India during and after the partition of British Raj, between the countries of Pakistan and the Republic of India. This dispute involved key figures such as Lord Mountbatten, the last Viceroy of British Raj, and Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the leader of the Muslim League and a founder of Pakistan. By 1947, the British Raj was going to be divided into two new nation states – Hindustan and Pakistan. Jinnah was initially convinced that Hindustan would not use the term India, since it lacked indigenous pedigree, etymologically and historically India meant the Indus Valley (modern-Pakistan). He also opposed the use of the name India as it would cause confusion regarding history. The disagreement had significant implications for national identity and international recognition.

B1 is a medical-based Paralympic classification for blind sport. Athletes in this classification are totally or almost totally blind. It is used by a number of blind sports including blind tennis, para-alpine skiing, para-Nordic skiing, blind cricket, blind golf, five-a-side football, goalball and judo. Some other sports, including adaptive rowing, athletics and swimming, have equivalents to this class. The B1 classification was first created by the IBSA in the 1970s, and has largely remained unchanged since despite an effort by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) to move towards a more functional and evidence-based classification system. Classification is often handled on the international level by the International Blind Sports Federation (IBSA) but it sometimes handled by national sport federations. There are exceptions for sports like athletics and cycling, where classification is handled by their own governing bodies. Equipment utilized by competitors in this class may differ from sport to sport, and may include sighted guides, guide rails, beeping balls and clapsticks. There may be some modifications related to equipment and rules to specifically address needs of competitors in this class to allow them to compete in specific sports. Some sports specifically do not allow a guide, whereas cycling and skiing require one.

The Cappadocian calendar was identical to the Zoroastrian calendar; this can be seen in its structure, in the Avestan names and in the order of the months. The Cappadocian calendar reflects the Iranian cultural influence in the region.

Half of the children experienced mental health disturbances, and half of them died in young adulthood.

Syrian literature is modern fiction written or orally performed in Arabic by writers from Syria since the independence of the Syrian Arab Republic in 1946. It is part of the historically and geographically wider Arabic literature. The modern states of Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel as well as the Palestinian autonomous areas only came into being in the mid-20th century. Therefore, Syrian literature has since been referred to by literary scholarship as the national literature of the Syrian Arab Republic, as well as the works created in Arabic by Syrian writers in the diaspora. This literature has been influenced by the country's political history, the literature of other Arabic-speaking countries and, especially in its early days, by French literature.

Evidence for this ocean includes geographic features resembling ancient shorelines, and the chemical properties of the Martian soil and atmosphere (Please update the interwiki links on Wikidata of your language version of the article after each week's translation is finished so that all languages are linked to each other.)

From 1942 to 1949, Canada forcibly relocated and incarcerated over 22,000 Japanese Canadians—comprising over 90% of the total Japanese Canadian population—from British Columbia in the name of "national security". The majority were Canadian citizens by birth and were targeted based on their ancestry. This decision followed the events of the Japanese Empire's war in the Pacific against the Western Allies, such as the invasion of Hong Kong, the attack on Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, and the Fall of Singapore which led to the Canadian declaration of war on Japan during World War II. Similar to the actions taken against Japanese Americans in neighbouring United States, this forced relocation subjected many Japanese Canadians to government-enforced curfews and interrogations, job and property losses, and forced repatriation to Japan (Please update the interwiki links on Wikidata of your language version of the article after each week's translation is finished so that all languages are linked to each other.)
