OER inquiry

Hi Lquilter, I'm sending you this message because you're one of about 300 users who have recently edited an article in the umbrella category of open educational resources (OER) (or open education). In evaluating several projects we've been working on (e.g. the WIKISOO course and WikiProject Open), my colleague Pete Forsyth and I have wondered who chooses to edit OER-related articles and why. Regardless of whether you've taken the WIKISOO course yourself - and/or never even heard the term OER before - we'd be extremely grateful for your participation in this brief, anonymous survey before 27 April. No personal data is being collected. If you have any ideas or questions, please get in touch. My talk page awaits. Thanks for your support! - Sara FB (talk) 20:44, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

Wiki Loves Pride 2014

Hi Lquilter. In case you are not aware, there is an upcoming campaign to improve coverage of LGBT-related topics on Wikipedia, culminating with an international edit-a-thon on June 21. See Wiki Loves Pride 2014 for more information. If you are interested, you might consider creating a page for a major city (or cities!) near you, with a list of LGBT-related articles that need to be created or improved. This would be a tremendous help to Wikipedia and coverage of LGBT culture and history. Thanks for your consideration, and please let me know if you have any questions! --Another Believer (Talk) 15:46, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

InB4 you! Please harmonize your edit with my recent mention of the same case (under Examples). Thanks. Spike-from-NH (talk) 22:42, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

@Spike-from-NH: - Okay, done. I kept it in the statute of limitations section (where I put it), because there is a specific section for that issue. I used some of your wording & included the cornell case cite (thanks for that). btw, you had a typo on "rebuffed the plaintiff"; laches of course was raised by the D. ... happy to find other editors who work on these fields; do you do a lot on copyright or legal doctrines? or was this a chance edit on your part? --Lquilter (talk) 12:40, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the merge. You are right about the defendant! I don't work Wikipedia legal issues (have recently been working on football and basketball rules), but I always review Supreme Court opinions at LII, had to come here to find out what "laches" was, and thought the new decision (and the fact that the laches issue was debated in the dissent) broke new ground. Spike-from-NH (talk) 12:47, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
@Spike-from-NH: Well, I really appreciate your interest & work on it. Thanks! (Yeah, laches is one of my more favorite doctrines. Just for fun, check out adverse possession, another old common law doctrine that I enjoy.) --Lquilter (talk) 13:45, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
Ouch! Conditions under which possession is ten-tenths of the law! I don't think squatters should be rewarded. My favorite doctrine is judicial estoppel. I learned about it, regarding the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, which is not in Portsmouth but on an island in the river and nominally part of Maine (which is the only way to reach it), when New Hampshire saw fit to argue both sides of the question in two different lawsuits against Maine. I thought it was an important principle that could potentially impede people who want to have things both ways; it should have been used against Obama-care, except that the continual claim that it wasn't a tax did not go into a lawsuit. Spike-from-NH (talk) 18:20, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
Oh, no, property law wants to reward active uses, rather than "dead hand" control. There are lots of good reasons -- economics and efficiency among them -- for doctrines like adverse possession. --Lquilter (talk) 05:36, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
And maybe the robber can use the cash better than the "dead hand" of the bank, but the result is not more "efficient" than property rights that can be counted on. But to return to the business of this site: Good work at Judicial estoppel — but do you agree that the reference I removed, though it relates to the previous reference, does not have anything to do with estoppel? Spike-from-NH (talk)
Real property != cash in a bank, right? Each form of property has a variety of doctrines specific to it, aimed at making it function. The point with real property is that if it's unoccupied such that its owner-of-record doesn't even notice that it's being used for decades, then title needs to move on; the longer records sit, the harder ownership questions become to disentangle. So possession is 9/10 of the law makes a lot of sense. -- As for judicial estoppel, I didn't check on your edit. I'm noting now that if you mention a case you should cite to it. --Lquilter (talk) 12:33, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
The Piscataqua River border dispute I mention in Judicial estoppel cites two cases (and one consent decree), and I linked there for the details — and have just edited it to use a footnote rather than an in-line citation, following your example. Tell me if you meant something more specific. I am not trained to document cases with new Wikipedia pages, as you are doing.
My bank-robbery analogy is inexact but adequate: Whether either form of property is used as a store of value rather than actively is the owner's option. Not just squatters but third parties can always rationalize a subjectively "better" use of property. Spike-from-NH (talk) 19:26, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
I'll check the page. As for the other subject, you might enjoy reading about the theory of property. There's no inherent reason, for instance, which property would "survive" after death or if it's not being used; that's just a customary set of rules we've come to adopt from some (not all) legal traditions. But in all systems that have those forms of property, that can effectively create controls over property long after the person who wanted those controls on, there are ways to get rid of those rules. Rule against perpetuities is a classic example to get rid of dead hand control; and doctrines like adverse possession are there also, for hundreds of years. ... They're economically efficient because it's actually very difficult to track transfer of titles once it gets over a few decades; so every time you wipe the slate & start clean, you're making the system work more smoothly. It's part of incentives in law to keep the legal system functioning, and to keep property fresh rather than stale. --Lquilter (talk) 23:18, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

So, I just blocked 37.230.4.122 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) for 24 hours for trolling on Jimbo's talk page.

  • Weird. I don't know! I have 5 students & they all set up user accounts, and were all novices. As to "a student in the class" -- when I was setting up the course page today, I clicked on "add a student", and tried to add myself; when I saved, it listed that IP address.

Personal infoboxes in relation to patriotism and nationalism

Hi Lquilter,

I saw your name on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Discrimination#Participants listing.

There is a discussion at Template talk:Infobox person#Citizenship suggesting a change of emphasis to a Citizenship entry from the Nationality entry.

The idea is to give more facilitation to Patriotism instead of Nationalism and also to allow more freedom of expression in regards to terminologies used.

Proposed deletion of List of European scholars on matters of Information law

The article List of European scholars on matters of Information law has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Listcruft. The list is of interest to a very limited number of people and would not be expected to be included in an encyclopaedia. The list's membership is volatile and requires a disproportionate amount of effort to keep up to date.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. --Edcolins (talk) 20:50, 19 September 2014 (UTC)

As you may have already heard, the Wikipedia community lost an invaluable member of the community last month. Adrianne Wadewitz was a feminist scholar of 18th-Century British literature, and a prolific editor of the site. As part of a worldwide series of tributes, New England Wikimedians, in conjunction with local institutions of higher learning, have created three edit-a-thons that will be occurring in May and June.

Thoughts on categorization

Hello: I saw your comments at [[1]]. I am writing an article (several actually) about a small mammal(s) of the Pacific Northwest (mostly Oregon) and need some help with categorization. Should I go ahead and create Category:Fauna of the Pacific Northwest? The article in question is Creeping vole. The current system as I see it would have it categorized into ecoregions of the US and Canada separately. Thank you. Gaff ταλκ 05:23, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

  • Hi -- When I check Category:Pacific_Northwest, it looks like there are several regional "fauna of" subcategories already -- maybe one of them meets your needs? If not, then do create it. And if you run into problems ping me again -- I'm happy to weigh in on discussions. --Lquilter (talk) 12:22, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
