I am writing an article on Quotron, see the [[:de:Benutzer:Minderbinder/Quotron|draft]]. Scantlin Electronics Inc. (SEI) was taken public as a non-listed stock in October 1960 with Loeb, Rhoades & Co. as the underwriter. In 1973 the company was renamed to Quotron Systems Inc. In 1985, Citibank acquired the majority of the shares. I am looking for IPO filings, annual reports and similar filings from the time of 1960 until 1985. I looked into the EDGAR database without success, but I am assuming that there be some other SEC filings, listed or not. Thank you. --[[User:Minderbinder-de|Minderbinder-de]] ([[User talk:Minderbinder-de|talk]]) 21:08, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

:b)Scientific definition which means that silver should be microscopically evenly dispersed into another medium. (This definition stems from wiki article "colloidal".
I would like to point, that both definitions are general ones. They do not include the characterization of the type of silver being used, it's atomic or molecular structure. (All the silver intended for ingestion is essentially is a colloidal one, otherwise it would be just a piece of a silver.) So "silver", "colloidal silver" and "nano silver" mean absolutely the same thing. Its clear that in the press release when they use "silver" they don't mean "pieces of ordinary silver".

Line 743 ⟶ 728:
To determine the copyright status of [[:File:Portrait of Micheál Ó Coileáin.jpg|this photograph]] in its source country (Ireland), we need to know when the photographer died. We know that it is W. D. Hogan who was most prolific in the period 1920–1924 and who was a professional photographer. He worked until 1935 at 56 Henry St, Dublin. I was unable to find any traces of him after this year. The National Library of Ireland has a collection of photos of him but provides no life span (see [http://catalogue.nli.ie/Author/Home?author=Hogan%2C%20W.%20D%20photographer. here]). There was recently an exhibition of some of his photographs in Dublin (see [http://www.nli.ie/en/udlist/programme-and-events-previous-exhibitions.aspx?article=e55a1c22-8560-472a-bb4a-2f92bdf3cb3f here] and [http://comeheretome.wordpress.com/2010/05/10/w-d-hogans-run-comes-to-an-end/ here]) but his lifespan is nowhere mentioned. It would be very helpful if biographical databases, newspaper archives etc. could be recherched for his death date. As W. D. Hogan has taken a great number of unique historical photographs of the [[Irish War of Independence]] this would be helpful not just for this photograph that is currently under [[:commons:Commons:Deletion requests/File:Portrait of Micheál Ó Coileáin.jpg|discussion]] but the entire collection. --[[User:AFBorchert|AFBorchert]] ([[User talk:AFBorchert|talk]]) 06:43, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

Interestingly in the short 1929 article, he doesn't in fact use the term sociopath but does propose "socio-pathology" - meaning pathological group behaviour, most strikingly demonstrated in national motivations for war he says. In the 1930 article he talks about sociopathy as an individual or group issue which anyone can sometimes show, but does also define 'essential sociopaths' or for short sociopaths as those with a core mental disorder involving chronic anti-social motivation & behavior. He mentions Karl Birnbaum but doesn't cite him or credit him with coining the term so still not sure about that, maybe I'll try the German wiki.

==== Nurse Specialties Median Annual Income ====
Looking for Nurse Median Annual income by nurse specialty. The Bureau of Labor Statistics lumps all the specialties together. I want to isolate each nurse specialty and report the median annual income for each specialty (i.e. Surgery, Pediatrics, Home Health Care, etc.). I was told that my original source was invalid. The specialties may be found here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nursing_specialties.[[User:Sjt003|Sjt003]] ([[User talk:Sjt003|talk]]) 15:53, 1 November 2013 (UTC)sjt003

:Do you (or someone) live near any of [http://www.worldcat.org/title/american-classic-screen/oclc/3334436&referer=brief_results these libraries]? For example, CMU claims to have v.3 (1978/1979)-v.7 (1983). Not all have all issues, but some seem like they might have this.

::I'd be theoretically in range to make a day trip out to KU, but getting the opportunity to make the trip this time of year may be challenging. Worst case, I'll try to arrange that in a couple weeks, but I'm hoping I get lucky here in the meantime.

::::{{ping|Atethnekos}}The Jagged_85 case is in a class of its own. I sincerely hope we never see anything like it again. What made his edits so damaging was that they ''looked like'' they were well sourced. A lot of editors don't check references; very few indeed check references which are not available online, and Jagged_85 frequently used hard to check sources with incomplete references. This was made far worse by his prodigious output, at one point he was in the top 100 editors by number of edits. He would copy the same bad material with bad references into a dozen articles. Not only does the boosterism cause confusion and perhaps even a backlash against the exaggeration, it's immensely damaging to Wikipedia's reputation. Wikipedia references are supposed to be how you know an article is well-sourced; if you can't trust what look like good references to scholarly articles, Wikipedia is nearly useless. Some of his mistakes have been used as examples in newspapers to show how unreliable Wikipedia is. I was never quite sure if they were mistakes; at the very least, he made definitive statements about things he didn't understand. Sometimes what he wrote was so ridiculous (Avicenna was the first to describe the lever was one of my favourites) then he must surely have known that he was essentially making it up.
::::It can take 100 hours work to clean-up even one article, given how time consuming it is to track down all the references. It also requires a fair amount of understanding quite difficult sources. One of his favourite tactics was to use an article that mentions X and Y to say that X ''invented'' Y, and you have to understand what the article actually does say before you can correct his edit. I did a philosophy degree and I'm happy skimming scholarly articles to get the required information, but I can understand why few others have the understanding and patience to get involved. The time I have available is fairly limited, although I have a bit more at the moment. If you feel the urge to get involved, I'm sure your help would be much appreciated. --[[User:Merlinme|Merlinme]] ([[User talk:Merlinme|talk]]) 18:38, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
