Human rights in Egypt

This page needs updating really, the majority of the sources were published in 2006 or earlier and it does not take into account recent material. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.213.98.15 (talk) 12:33, 28 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

League for Small and Subject Nationalities, League of Small Nations, etc. ?

I ran across this concept while browsing around, saw no article so tried to dig up some info. I'm a little confused as to how these organisations worked and what the overlap was, and apparently some pretty major figures (WEB DuBois, Rose Standish Nichols , etc) were involved in this process. I'd appreciate any help in digging up info on the subject. MatthewVanitas (talk) 19:13, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Purpose of "Category:Human rights in..." categories

Question: is there an agreed purpose for "Category:Human rights in..." categories?

I'm looking at, for instance, Category:Human rights in the United Kingdom, Category:Human rights in Mexico, Category:Human rights in Colombia - and see no sign of these categories being used to group people whose human rights are claimed to have been violated. But this is what is being done with Category:Human rights in Venezuela. Clearly, some editors want to group these people together - but since it is disputed whether their rights have been violated, there's an additional complication. Has this problem arisen elsewhere? Is there a precedent for using the category in this way? Is there some other category that would be more suitable? I haven't seen any. Suggestions? Rd232 talk 17:34, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

equal opportunity / equal outcomes / affirmative action

Your articles on equality seem to contradict each other. You have some that specifically say that affirmative action is a principle of "equality of outcomes", some that say "equal opportunity" employers are ones that practice affirmative action. Which camp is affirmative action in? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.254.8.208 (talk) 03:48, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review of Akmal Shaikh on hold

The GA review of the Akmal Shaikh article, which is tagged as being within the scope of this project, has been on hold for over 30 days. It is near to being passed, but the Akmal_Shaikh#Reaction section needs editing to reduce the amount of direct quotation as per Wikipedia:Quotations, and also to be trimmed in general to meet GA criteria 3(b): "stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail". Any assistance in this matter would be appreciated. See Talk:Akmal Shaikh/GA1 for more detail. (If you feel that the article does not fall under the scope of this project, please remove the project tag from the article talkpage). SilkTork *YES! 10:32, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article has now passed. SilkTork *YES! 14:05, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

New Barnstar

Hello everyone! I propose a new version of the "Barnstar of Liberty", that I just made. Very high resolution, in vector format. What do you think about it? Antonu (talk) 07:39, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The old barnstar (like many barnstars) is very ugly, which is probably one reason it is not given out too often. Your proposed design is nicer, but a barnstar is generally supposed to be barnstar shaped I think? yours is not so the replacement might grate some nerves from that perspective?Ajbpearce (talk) 21:40, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Alrighty, how about "Type 2" (barnstar shaped)? It's high resoltion too (png format). Antonu (talk) 14:42, 29 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
