Stirling Newberry



Stirling Newberry (1967- ) American. Blogger, historian and composer. == Brief Biography == Stirling Newberry is best known for his political work in support of the American Democratic Party, and military and economic analysis. In 2003 he was part of the small group of people who helped organize and drive the movement to Wesley Clark for President and came to wider public notice when his criticisms of the early Clark campaign were picked up by the national media. While controversial at the time, these criticisms, very regrettably, were later born out by events. Since then Stirling Newberry has been cited as an expert on blogging and the social forces involved in the flowering of internet politics, and is currently working on a book on the transformation of political and economic models which is occuring. His work has been covered in Vanity Fair, Wired Magazine, Salon.com and mentioned in other national press outlets. He has also been cited as a military analyst with regard to the war in Iraq, where he is a harsh critic of the conduct of the war from the persective of effectiveness and commensurate means for the stated ends. He is the chief economist at [http://langnerco.com Langner and Company]. *[http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/lydon/2003/10/27#a397 First Christopher Lydon interview] *[http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/lydon/2003/10/28#a399 Second Christopher Lydon interview] He is also a composer of Classical music. == Involvement in Wikipedia== *[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Wikicite Wikicite project] Adding references and bibliographic reference material to wikimedia. *[http://www.bopnews.com/archives/002699.html#2699 A model of decision information using wikipedia] Stirling Newberry has blogged on how Wikipedia is a laboratory for emerging economic models based on a long tail contributions and coöperation systems, where competition is asserts itself over relative scarcity of attention bandwidth rather than over particular resources. In this view the reduction of decision costs is essential to increasing participation. He is also working on the project to put a card catalog on line called ''Wikicite'' which will allow wiki editors to easily embed citations, and create bibliographic enhancement for citations used on wikipedia. The purpose of this project is to make citing within wiki easier and faster, and to subject the quality of sources to the wikiprocess, while more firmly linking wikisource to wikipedia and wiktionary. He is also a regular contributor to articles on Economics, Philosophy, Classical music and Social movements, including Gold standard, Hyper-inflation, Romanticism, The Age of Enlightenment, Postmodernism, Modernism and History of sonata form. ==Compositions== *Symphony No. 1, "Sketches from Dante" *Symphony in A *Symphony in E, "In Pursuit of the Millenium" *Symphony in C# *Symphony in B *Symphony in F# *Koncertstueck in G "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" *Koncertstueck in Db "Hyperion" *Piano Concerto in G "Tiananamen" *Quartet in A *Quartet in Ab "Romanish Elegien" *Quartet in F *Quartet in D "Sehnsucht" *Quartet in Db *Quartet in F# *Piano Trio in F *Piano Trio in Bb *Violin Sonata in D *Cello Sonata in D *Cello Sonata in F# *Cello Sonata in C *Overture to Medea *On "Paradise Lost" *The Ruins - a cantata for small orchestra *Piano Sonata in C# *Piano Sonata in F# *Piano Sonata in Bb == Web sites == *[http://www.bopnews.com Bopnews.com] *[http://www.symphony-x.com Symphony X] *[http://www.bopnews.com/archives/000337.html#000337 Laboring under illusions] *[http://oddwiki.taoriver.net/wiki.pl/Ishtar/HomePage Ishtar Wiki] An experimental wiki for that world.

thanx for stepping in. i hope this will solve the problem. User:Xtra 20:42, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==Dresden== What an improvement . . . ''thank you!'' A few of us have tried, but our edits didn't "take," though I'm sure yours will. I can't tell from your user page whether you're an historian or not, but I'm assuming you are or that you've worked in a related field. The article is ''so'' much better now. Best, User:SlimVirgin 19:53, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC) :I've deleted a couple of typos (an extra "and" etc) from the text you added, but no content change. Here's the diff [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bombing_of_Dresden_in_World_War_II&diff=10400650&oldid=10400540]. The words "terrorise," then "terrorizing" were in the same sentence, so I changed terrorise to "z", but if that's an issue for you, feel free to change them both to "s". Best, User:SlimVirgin 20:21, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC) I am interested to know why you deleted the phrase I added to the section International Law: IV and IX "because it is possible that bombardment by air may not be covered by either". User:Philip Baird Shearer 23:30, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC) Thanks did not know about the Greco-German arbitration tribunal (1927-1930) -- I'll look it up. User:Philip Baird Shearer 00:32, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC) :In Talk:Bombing of Dresden in World War II#More questions SlimVirgin has asked: ::''2) "The United States military lays out the following historically based case that bombing of Dresden did not constitute a war crime." It's the Air Force History Support Office that makes this case. Why not name the source of the material? And what is a "historically based case"?'' :I think that you wrote that piece of text, if you did perhaps you could answer her. Moving on to another item which you might find interesting. On Page 365 of "Dresden Tuesday 13 Feb 1945" by F Taylor, he states that the USAAF planned to use used 678.3 tones of HE and 400 tones of incendiaries, not all were dropped on Dresden but those that were, were in the same ratio. This he says was an unusual bomb mix because it was more like an RAF city busting mix instead of the usual USAAF precision mix. He also says that there is some confusion over the exact target of the USAAF: * Initial orders to senior officers was Dresden marshalling yards. * Individual bomber groups mostly just were briefed to bomb Dresden or in one cases, 303 Bomb Group, military targets in Dresden and specifically to marshalling yards in Chemnitz. * The definiative report from the comander of the 1st division, Brig-Gen Tucker states: ** Primary Target -- visual -- Center of built up area Dresden. ** Secondary Target -- visual -- M/Y Chennitz ** H2X radar --Center of Dresden. ** Last resort any military target positivly identified in Germany (east of the Western Allied armies's bomb line (and west of the Soviet bomb line)) So it appears that the Bombing of Dresden by the American was an area bombing of Dresden not the usual precision raid which the wikipedia article currently implies by saying that the Dresden marshalling yards were targeted. This also has an impact on any possible war crime accusations as the USAAF seems to have adopted RAF tactics for this raid. User:Philip Baird Shearer 17:49, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC) == arbitration == Hi. I have started an arbitration against PSYCH. I did not want to, but felt I had to after finding out that he had posted on other websites to get people to help him argue on wikipedia against me. Please see Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/PSYCH for information. User:Xtra 22:49, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC) == Personal attacks? == This isn't editorializing, it is reporting. And stop making personal attacks. Stirling Newberry 04:45, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC) :Pointing out errors is not a personal attack. (User:Sam Spade | user_talk:Sam Spade | Special:contributions/Sam Spade) 12:58, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC) I have replied @ User_talk:Sam_Spade#personal_attacks.3F. (User:Sam Spade | user_talk:Sam Spade | Special:contributions/Sam Spade) 14:10, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==Our edits at William_A._Dembski== Stirling-- Based on your edit summary notes, I assumed my correction to the article had been reverted in its entirety. I now see that I was incorrect in that assumption, so I've re-added your phrase to the current version, which I had inadvertantly removed in my revert of your previous edit-- My apologies. I feel the issue that the original passage might have been a cut and pasted from ChristianityToday is a non sequitur at this point since the passage has been reworded and we can drop it. Just for the record I am not a supporter of ID, creationism or any other form of magical thinking.--User:FeloniousMonk 04:16, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==Willy== Thanks Stirling. Your creation of the new user page for WoW is what alerted me to the problem. I love having a T1 line for vandalism reversion, but now I have to get back to work, LOL. User:Antandrus 23:35, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC) Ah, composition! I don't get nearly enough time for that these days. Actually I think the accordion is underrepresented in contemporary composition. I knew an accordionist/composer a few years back and she got a lot of attention, way more than violinists/pianists like me. User:Antandrus 00:08, 24 Feb 2005 (UTC) == Mass deaths and atrocities of the twentieth century == "Bloodletting" is Matthew White's own terminology, and given that this article is a brief explanation of his work, I think it only right that term remain. It is perfectly understandable and correct, and "mass killing" is no substantive improvement. User:DenniUser_talk:Denni 02:47, 2005 Feb 24 (UTC) *''reverting editor admits to pushing POV'' Huh? Here I was, ready to give you a pat on the back for some nice additions to this article, when I discovered this nasty little bit. Sorry, friend, I "admitted" nothing. I merely suggested that, since the data under discussion were compiled and tabled by Matthew White, and since this very same table on his web page used the term "bloodletting", then perhaps it would be reasonable to follow suit. I would really like to know where you see POV here - there was undeniably a considerable amount of blood let, and to use a term which describes it as such is hardly engaging in POV. You're acting like a newbie! User:DenniUser_talk:Denni 01:25, 2005 Feb 25 (UTC) **I am very obviously wasting my breath. Seems you can't get past your own POV. User:DenniUser_talk:Denni 04:26, 2005 Feb 25 (UTC) == Global Warming == I just wanted to thank you for your edits [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Global_warming&diff=10554678&oldid=10554264 here]. The global warming page had grown in need of some reorganization like that to better clarify the major issues involved. People spend too much time edit warring every detail around there, and it greatly detracts from the effort to organize the material into a coherent encyclopedic format. User:CortoninUser:Cortonin | User talk:Cortonin 18:25, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC) :Yes they are, and this has apparently been a problem for a while. I've been trying to draw attention to it since I first stumbled on the global warming page. If you'll note, the same group of editors has trickled this behavior into a wide variety of climate change related articles. It seems to all be about the politics of persuasion, and it's masked as a "science vs. non-science" debate, which I don't believe could be farther from the truth. Good to have somebody around calling for sanity and normal Wikipedia standards found elsewhere. User:CortoninUser:Cortonin | User talk:Cortonin 18:45, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC) == Wang Ch'ung == Good to see someone else contributing (most of the articles I start are almost completely ignored by everyone else). I've tweaked some of your additions (for example, putting the bit about thunder before my original account of his view of ghosts); I hope that you approve. There was an Edit conflict when I tried to save it, so I'll now have a look at what you were doing while I was fiddling. Μελ_Ετητης)">User:Mel Etitis 19:58, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC) :Interesting — but I'm afraid that I'll have to leave the material concerning Ban Gu entirely to you, as he was completely new to me. :The page could do with something to break it up; I'll try to find a suitable illustration. Μελ_Ετητης)">User:Mel Etitis 09:48, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==European art music== Thanks for the support. I have absolutely no preference regarding classical vs art, they seem equally ill fitted but I can't think of a better term. I think placing classical musics at classical music (and placing European music at a title which indicates it's European) is the most helpful for potential readers. User:Hyacinth 03:20, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC) :Thanks! What do you mean by decentralization? The lack of an overemphasis on European related content? User:Hyacinth 00:10, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Your portrait == The picture you have on your user page is marked on its image description page with the non-existent template . Naturally, the most logical explanation is that you meant GFDL, but since this is a question of your licensing intent with legal implications, I prefer not to read your mind, even to jump to the most obvious of conclusions. If you would fix the page or otherwise confirm if you intended to license this picture under the GNU Free Documentation License, it would be appreciated. --User:Michael Snow 21:51, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Fashionable Nonsense == I've left this message because I noticed you engaging in a discussion with users who are attempting to spread popularization of the viewpoint stated in Alan Sokal and Jean Bricmont's book Fashionable Nonsense and related events. I've begun an attempt to create a repository that will attempt to, ultimately, remove this misinformed position from an ideally-neutral Wikipedia, except to acknowledge the viewpoint in its own context. This attempt isn't going so well, so I'm contacting people like you whom I've seen discussing the topic earlier than I've intended. See both the intended meta-article and its discussion page for details. User:VermillionBird/Fashionable Nonsense is not a scholarly work If you're interested in contributing in any way, please feel free to do so. If not, thank you for your other contributions to Wikipedia. User:VermillionBird 01:31, 2005 Mar 6 (UTC) == VfD: "FACTS" == Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/FACTS --User:Goethean 17:32, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Republics== Need your help and/or advice. The British Wikipedian Republican Party sought fit to delete [http://www.wikinfo.org/wiki.php?title=Classical_definition_of_republic Wikinfo:Classical definition of republic] from Wikipedia. There is a terrible brouhaha at Talk:Republic. They won't even allow an external link! SimonP really doesn't know what he is doing. They deleted the Classical definition of republic and created mixed government and politeia instead. The official title of mixed government is a Republic and the Romans translated "politiea" as Republic. And then to top it off the new article Classical republicanism doesn't refer to the Classical republics of Crete, Sparta, Solonic Athens, or Rome but to Machiavelli's ideology. How can that be when Venice in the 13th century instituted a mixed government and called herself a "Republic". With Jwrosenwieg and Kim Bruning there was a tacit agreement a year ago to have republic be the modern meaning and a [Classical definition of republic] to describe the ancient republics of Hellas and Rome and their influence. To say the least the "Republic section" is all messed up. We need some clarification. I have new information but User:Snowspinner won't let me bring this back up for undelete. (I do grant that a little bit of the Classical definition is original but the rest is not.) I will not let Sparta be called anything but a republic! I will not let the British wikipedian modern republicans strip Sparta, (my heritage and roots) of her rightful name. She is a Classical republic and needs to be called such! At the least, where is the damage in having an external link?User:WHEELER 14:58, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Proposed RfC on User:Daniel C. Boyer == I noticed you have had disputes with Mr. Boyer over the surrealism article. We are currently drafting an RFC against him for what we consider to be acts of self-promotion and a hostile unwillingness to consider comments or concerns of other Wikipedians. If you feel that his conduct has fallen below the letter or spirit of Wikipedia policies and believe you can document this, please feel free to add this to the User:Plattopus/DCB. Thanks! User:Postdlf 20:43, 11 May 2005 (UTC) ==Hi== It's good to see you editing again, Stirling. I hope you're back to stay. User:SlimVirgin User_talk:SlimVirgin 23:51, May 11, 2005 (UTC)
