Was the 2011 Wikimedia Foundation Image Filter ever implemented?

I've seen a few pages on Wikimedia from 2011 discussing some sort of Wikimedia Foundation Image Filter. When I tried researching the topic, I was able to find a few resources, including the Image filter referendum, an analysis of the voting results, an online PDF analysis, and a category of censored imaged. However, I'm still a bit confused about what actually happened.

Was the image filter ever actually implemented? --Stevoisiak (talk) 17:46, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Last I saw, they asked the "community" to develop the filter for them. 209.149.113.5 (talk) 18:55, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Creating a Wikipedia article?

What does it really take to create a Wikipedia article? I created one about an actor (Malcolm Dixon (actor)) who was in a some movies that I liked in the 80's. It was quickly deleted by someone who said that he didn't see any of the movies, so the actor must not be notable. I argued a bit and I was told that the pages for the movies I mentioned didn't have a link to his page. I went to each of the movie pages and made sure that the reference to the actor's name linked to the page and then recreated the page. It was quickly proposed for deletion because it didn't have references. I went through and added references. After a few hours of messing with the weird references thing, I was told that the references I was adding don't count. I need different references. So, assume that I spend the next few days finding different references, what comes next? 209.149.113.5 (talk) 11:59, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The easiest way for one unfamiliar with process is to use WP:Article wizard and/or WP:Your first article. They will help walk you through the steps and Article wizard will require a reviewer to approve your work so you can avoid the messy process you are currently in. WP:Reliable sources should help with your current issue. Questions like these can be asked at the WP:Teahouse as well which specializes in newcomers. Rmhermen (talk) 13:15, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You problem appears to be with the notability criteria - which for actors is

Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.

Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following.

Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.

Looking at the list in your article, I don't think you can really claim that he meets those. Wymspen (talk) 13:19, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It is pointless. Before I could even get to adding interviews and all his theater work, all the work I did was reverted. It is obvious that this has to do with being in the "in-crowd". You want a "significant" role. What makes it "significant"? He had multiple major roles in multiple movies, but are they "significant"? In multiple films. How many is multiple? He has been in over 30 films. Apparently 30 is not "multiple". He has a large fan base. Really? Every actor with an article on Wikipedia has a large fan base? How large is "large"? There are many fans of Time Bandits and Labrynth who are also fans of the actors. But, how many does it take to be "large"? Makes a "unique" contribution to entertainment. There is absolutely nothing unique in entertainment. It is all recycled. "Prolific"? How many is "prolific"? Then "innovative". You want to know if he recycled old work when most people forgot about it? That criteria is all bunch of opinions that can be argued either way anyone likes. If you are in the "in-crowd", it is argued for you. If you aren't, it is argued against you. 209.149.113.5 (talk) 17:04, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't really think playing an oompa loompa in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and a washing machine in The Goodies count as significant contributions to world cinema. It would be best if you let this one pass. --Viennese Waltz 18:10, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. Who decides, for example, Matthew Alan, Micah Alberti or Stuart Allan (all of whom I have never heard of) are more worthy of an article than Malcolm Dixon (who I have heard of)? --TrogWoolley (talk) 18:22, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I would have used Peter Ostrum as an example. The claim being made is that if you played an Oopma Loompa, it doesn't matter if you went on to continue acting in movies, television, and on stage for the next 46 years. Once an Oompa Loompa, you are permanently non-notable. (Unless one of the cool kids creates the article, of course.) 209.149.113.5 (talk) 20:02, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I understand your frustration (as one who's written close to 700 articles since 2003; and one who's had numerous other contributions deleted/reverted). But I'd strongly caution you about carrying on with this "in-crowd" stuff. There is no in-crowd. Wikipedia:There is no cabal. There is no inner sanctum. Learn that early, and learn to deal more realistically with the challenges Wikipedia can throw at you. Help is always available. -- Jack of Oz ^{[pleasantries]} 20:34, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

There are however, cliques which gain control over certain articles or areas. One of the worst problems in Wikipedia is the "PhD"s, who insist on keeping all articles they control in a state that can only be read by those who hold advanced degrees. Hence the need for a separate Simple Wikipedia, as opposed to those articles being the intro to each of ours. StuRat (talk) 20:48, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

(laughing) You really think that's what the Simple English Wikipedia is? --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆 𝄐𝄇} 04:13, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

During Wikipedia's narcissistic "blackout" a couple of years ago, I worked some on the Simple English site. It's surprisingly challenging, as it requires putting oneself into the shoes of someone who is not broadly fluent in English. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 22:22, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ford manual 5 speed transmission clutch slave cylinder designs

Hello, I am in dire need to understand the manual transmission clutch slave cylinders on the Ford trucks that use the Japanese made 5 speed transmissions. I have done extensive searching for information particularly about the hydraulic line connector designs. There have been many mechanics that do not know the kind of slave cylinders inside the transmissions and there are different designs on the input of the fittings. The angles, length, widths, etc. are different to different years and when one does not know how to identify the year it becomes a nuisance to find out. I need to know how to identify the slave cylinder while it is inside the transmission of the Ford F150 4.2 engine. I know the years the 4.2 was made for Ford F150 trucks but do not know exactly if there was any difference Ford allowed on the slave cylinders from those years they installed the 4.2 manual 5 speed transmissions and how to distinguish by sight or specifications on the input hydraulic line fitting on the slave cylinder of those years. I cannot find anyone willing to give me any idea of what to look for or how to look for it except telling me, "well, just go buy some and see if they fit." The problem is they cost a lot of money and once bought and trying to fit them if they do not fit then you are stuck with the cost. I want to know how to eliminate this if someone has installed a different year slave cylinder in the transmissions unknowing to the buyer. I hope you can understand me and if not please ask me for more information. Thank you, — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.171.200.30 (talk) 12:15, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Military terminology, merging units

Is there any specific military term for merging devastated units into one new unit? Say you're on the front in WWI and you have five platoons who come out of a battle with ten surviving soldiers each - do they get reformed into a new platoon, and what's the word for it? And this is a grammar question but actually, it occurs to me, what was the protocol around that back then? Maybe they'd just be scattered off to different platoons entirely? Dr-ziego (talk) 12:26, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In the British Army, it's called a "composite" unit. For example, the war diary of the 7th (South Irish Horse) Battalion, Royal Regiment of Ireland records that on 21 March 1918 (the first day of the German Spring Offensive), the battalion had been reduced to "1 Officer and about 40 Other Ranks". The next day, "The Battn now forming part of a composite Battn of units of 16th Division..." Alansplodge (talk) 18:03, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Small van identification please

I just glimpsed an interesting small van that I'd like to identify. (I live in France.) It was about the width of a SmartCar - perhaps 1.5 m wide, and proportioned like a fairly typical boxy van. I only saw it for a moment but I'm fairly sure the driver was in its centre. It seemed to have some commercial sign on the side, which I mention because it signifies to me the typical usage. What make and model could it have been? Hayttom (talk) 19:39, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Here in New Zealand, NZ Post is using Norwegian-built Paxster vans for mail delivery. These are street legal with a max speed of 50 kilometres per hour (31 mph), but are permitted to drive up onto footpaths (sidewalks) to access mailboxes. There's no Paxster article yet, but if you google the name you'll find dozens of images. Maybe that's what you saw. Akld guy (talk) 20:57, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Brighton Pier Rides from an Engineering Perspective

Hello, Reference Desk Contributers, after a recent holiday to Brighton, I was left thinking about the rides on the pier. As an electronics and computer enthusiast, I am dead interested in all electronic and computer controlled items. Though some of my points here are not exactly pertinent to this subject, I feel that there are a lot of engineering questions that I could ask.

First of all, the rides on Brighton Pier, or at least the same type of rides found there; what are the expected voltages and wattages that such items would require for sufficient operation?

Also, from an engineering point of view, how are height restrictions correctly determined when designing a ride? I am particularly interested in maximum height restrictions, as they are less common and more unusual. Although these are often associated with children's rides, they do occasionally turn up on more adult rides.

I also notice that many of the rides on Brighton Pier have flashing lights. How are they actually programmed? I am an expert with computer programming, I guess that I want to know how that kind of expertise fits into amusement park rides?

Finally, out of pure curiosity, how much do the types of ride on Brighton Pier cost? Some of the rides, such as The Booster and Air Race intrigue me.

I appreciate that you may not have an engineering background, but I still expect to enjoy your thoughts here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Collegiate199861 (talk • contribs) 21:04, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Collegiate199861 (talk) 21:05, 8 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Air Race ride "replicates the experiences and sensations of an acrobatic airplane flight with banks, loops, dives and weightlessness"[1]. It is manufactured by Zamperla [2] and consumes 100 kW - 109 kW drive power.[3][4].

The Booster ride may be the one made by Fabbri seen in this POV video. "Spin, turn upside down and be catapulted 130 feet into the air!"[5]. It consumes 180 kW, normally from a 3-phase 380 VAC 50 Hz supply (detailed technical information here).

Height restrictions on Brighton Palace Pier:[6]

Under 0.9m - too small for Trampolines, Carousel, Fantasia, MegaSlide

Under 1.2m i.e Kiddies just under 4 feet (3' 11.24") - too small for Galaxia, AirRace

Under 1.3m - too small for TurboCoaster

1.2m to 1.4m - Must be accompanied by someone over 1.4m with a wristband

Glasses for reading, when making a speech

Hello. I've just been given reading glasses. I'm also a minister of religion and so often lead services, alternatiely reading from a book and looking up at the congregants. I've never worn glasses before so can anyone help me work out: what do I do with them in services? If I leave them off I struggle to read; if I put them on, when I look up I struggle to see and it's presumably bad for my eyes. What do you think? THanks 176.35.31.63 (talk) 15:00, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Three options - get bifocals, get half lenses, or let them slip down your nose so that you can look over the top of them. Wymspen (talk) 15:48, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Out of those three, the following fourth option would be best: See an optometrist. They are trained to give professional advice on exactly this problem. -- Jack of Oz ^{[pleasantries]} 22:06, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Especially regarding the "presumably bad for my eyes" part, which may or may not be valid. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 22:15, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result of following the fourth option may be glasses with Progressive lenses which give the advantage of bifocals but without the distracting border line between segments. Blooteuth (talk) 23:01, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

By substituting a distracting border area. Well, that's a matter of personal preference. I don't think I'm stepping on anyone professional toes if I point out that frequently putting glasses on and off causes wear on the glasses frames, particularly if you get in the habit of doing it one-handed. --69.159.63.238 (talk) 23:44, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As a suggestion from a fellow glasses wearer: when you look up at the congregation, don't try to focus on details/individuals, allow that view to remain blurred. I appreciate this may conflict with a natural desire in the circumstances to 'connect'. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 2.217.208.38 (talk) 17:07, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Another option is to put your reading glasses on to read, then take them off when not reading. This can actually be helpful, as it serves as a sign to the audience that a transition is occurring. So, you put on your glasses and they know to grab their Bibles or hymn books, and you take them off and they know to put them away. Hopefully you have room on your podium to put them down there. Now, I don't suggest you do this with every glance towards the audience between reading lines, for those you can just leave them on and not worry about the audience being blurry. StuRat (talk) 23:28, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yet another option is half-glasses, where you just look over the top of them. They are reading glasses but only half the lens area is used. --TammyMoet (talk) 11:42, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Is calling for "Bastille Day" on a forum illegal?

In this posting I argued for people who have access to classified information to start leaking information. Someone replied saying that my posting is in itself a violation of the law:

"You do understand that this post is treason under federal law right? You are calling for an over throw of the government, that's what "Bastille Day" was, the start of the French revolution... your comments are very, very dangerous, and I know for a fact... the secrete service, FBI, NSA and other government agencies are monitoring ALL of these boards and they know your true identity... This is a very, very foolish post, and it is too late to take it down they know where you are... not smart."

Count Iblis (talk) 08:36, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If you encourage someone to break the law, then you are certainly laying yourself open to a conspiracy charge. But the broader issue- aren't people calling for tugged overthrow of the government all the time? SWP, etc.? There is also presumably a difference in advocating something and actually doing something to further that end. — O Fortuna^{semper crescis, aut decrescis} 08:47, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't actually find any indication in conspiracy (criminal)#United_States that encouraging someone to break the law can be conspiracy. Conspiracy is an agreement to break the law, and usually requires at least one overt act by one of the conspirators. As to whether it's possible to prove the existence of an agreement without two-way communication, that's beyond my limited expertise.

In the United States, my understanding is that it's generally legal to advocate the overthrow of the government, even the violent overthrow, as long as it's a theoretical political position. See Yates v. United States. Of course, this should not be taken as legal advice by the orginal poster. --Trovatore (talk) 09:19, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As you know, you tied our hands a bit by telling us about the background of the question. Without presuming to offer legal advice, I would suggest that Brandenburg v. Ohio and imminent lawless action may be of interest. --Trovatore (talk) 09:01, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Expressing an opinion is covered by the First Amendment. The respondent may have been bluffing you - like they do with "legal threats" here. But to be on the safe side, you should probably contact an attorney. Although that could snowball. Your best bet might be to just stay away from that topic in public venues. And by the way, I do concur with the writer's comment about Bastille Day. That was a poor analogy. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 15:13, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You know that there's a yuge difference between expressing an opinion and encouraging treasonous actions, right? 2601:646:8E01:7E0B:E957:E363:9DD1:1743 (talk) 08:25, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It goes a bit more than "overthrow of the government". The events commemorated by Bastille Day resulted in the summary killings of a great many of the aristocracy. Calling for a "Bastille Day" is calling for an armed uprising in which you intend persons to be unlawfully put to death. Akld guy (talk) 21:18, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Just on the face of it, your post falls under at least half a dozen different statutes: conspiracy to mishandle classified information, incitement to criminal activity, very likely also incitement to violence and/or incitement to terrorism (the "Bastille Day" reference can certainly be construed as such), conspiracy to aid the enemy during a time of war (this, BTW, is potentially a death penalty offense), and because of the context in which you made this post it likely also falls under the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Terrorists (if so, this means, among other things, that it may fall under the jurisdiction of the military commissions established by President Bush, where you will not have the same rights that you would normally have in a US court.) And you may also have broken other laws which I forgot to mention, but this will do for a start. In short: you are in one whole sh*tload of trouble (to put it mildly), and I certainly wouldn't want to be you! 2601:646:8E01:7E0B:E957:E363:9DD1:1743 (talk) 08:16, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You have provided no evidence for these baseless claims. Go read Brandenburg v. Ohio --Trovatore (talk) 08:47, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You go read the Authorization for Use of Military Force and the National Security Strategy Guidelines (which in combination supersede Brandenburg v. Ohio in terrorism-related cases such as this one!) 2601:646:8E01:7E0B:E957:E363:9DD1:1743 (talk) 12:07, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Trovatore has it right. The relevant rule in the US is that the First Amendment broadly protects speech even when advocating criminal activity, except when the speech is designed to produce an imminent lawless action. This standard requires both that the speech advocates for criminal activity that is imminent (and not merely at some indefinite time in the future) and that the speech is likely to produce such criminal activity. I won't offer an opinion on whether your post meets that standard, but I've never heard of any prosecutions for inciting imminent lawless action as the result of broadly directed comments made in a public forum. Every imminent lawless action prosecution I've ever heard of involved a speaker with actual knowledge that specific members of his audience were likely to act on his call to violence / criminality. Of course, anyone (including the government) can look at your comments and judge you positively or negatively based on their content. But that is different from the consideration of whether an actual crime was committed. Dragons flight (talk) 11:13, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You posted this on the Washington Post's newsblog, which is moderated. The first thing that might happen is that someone complains about your post and it is taken down. The next thing is that the Washington Post could disable your account. If they take it very seriously they could report you to the FBI. Then you would get some FBI officers coming to talk to you to persuade you not to put such things up in future. Since neither of the first two things have happened, the third isn't likely to either. If it does, you could contact the ACLU. Itsmejudith (talk) 11:32, 11 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

And you may also have broken other laws which I forgot to mention, but this will do for a start.  In short: you are in one whole sh*tload of trouble (to put it mildly), and I certainly wouldn't want to be you!
