List of national animals - Falco cherrug
Dear Jargon777,
Thank you for your welcome!
But please ask before you revert my edit without any comment. SirGazsi (talk) 09:34, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
- @assumed good faith and reverted your edit rather than label it as vandalism, opting to welcome you instead. Please take the time to review the material in the welcome pages, it's very helpful. Although you have improved this by adding a citation, I think that the change is still unwarrented. The table is not a place for explaining the origins of the symbol; that is adequately provided by the article. Falco cherrug is the scietific name of a bird (saker falcon) that is not included in the table. I am not going to revert your edit twice because my goals on Wikipedia are generally restricted to fighting vandalism; but, as it is, someone will likely remove your change from the table in future. Jargon777 Leave a message 18:49, 5 November 2014 (UTC)]
- Your feedback is important to me. It was already a compromise from my part to leave the title "Mythical" in place since the probability of Saker Falcon being the Turul is high, but not 100%. It's easy to say Mythical although it's not, rather the correct identification is the question here. So I see the change warranted and if I had to choose I'd rather delete the Mythical label. With historical issues, we must live with might/may and most probably. And thank you for rightly point out the need for sources. For me, it just seemed trivial. And the Turul article has a link to Falco cherrug anyway. SirGazsi (talk) 17:51, 6 November 2014 (UTC)
- @SirGazsi: Thanks for your replies; I apologise again for not notifying you when I reverted it. I am not an expert on the creature or the context whereas you seem very knowledgeable. Your change appears to balance the competing views so perhaps it is on the whole beneficial. You may even have a case for changing it altogether because in List of national birds the Hungarian bird is listed simply as the saker falcon (though this may be different from the animal, but you could put a note? I dunno). Jargon777 Leave a message 19:44, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Last month's auspicious relaunch of our newsletter precipitated something of an uproar in the Wikipedia community. What started as a localized edit war over censorship spilled over onto the Administrator's Noticeboard finally ending up at Wikipedia's supreme judicial body ArbCom. Their ruling resulted in the admonishment of administrator Future Perfect at Sunrise for his involvement in the dispute. The story was reported by Wikipedia's venerable flagship newspaper The Signpost.
The question of whether to delete all portals--including the 27 Christianity-related portals--was put to the Wikipedia community. Approximately 400 editors have participated in the protracted discussion. Going by !votes, Oppose deletion has a distinct majority. The original Christianity Portal was created on November 5, 2005 by Brisvegas and the following year he successfully nominated the portal for Featured Portal. The Transhumanist has revived WikiProject Portals with hopes of revitalizing Wikipedia's system of 1,515 portals.

When God Writes Your Love Story: The Ultimate Approach to Guy/Girl Relationships is a 1999 book by Eric and Leslie Ludy, an American married couple. After becoming a bestseller on the Christian book market, the book was republished in 2004 and then revised and expanded in 2009. It tells the story of the authors' first meeting, courtship, and marriage. The authors advise single people not to be physically or emotionally intimate with others, but to wait for the spouse that God has planned for them.
The book is divided into five sections and sixteen chapters. Each chapter is written from the perspective of one of the two authors; nine are by Eric, while Leslie wrote seven, as well as the introduction. The Ludys argue that one's love life should be both guided by and subordinate to one's relationship with God. Leslie writes that God offers new beginnings to formerly unchaste or sexually abused individuals.
