Bear Gulch Ranch — Location of vast numbers of well-preserved historic Native American Pictographs & Petroglyphs near Lewistown, Montana. [19], [20], (a google search will find much more)
Fisher Body Plant (req; 05.22.2022) - A historic building off Detroit's highways. Visible from passing drivers, a famous spectacle. In 2022 the plant was planned to be revitalized as new apartments, due to its history and location. Designed by Albert Kahn and constructed in 1919, was used by Fisher before being merged entirely into GM. The plant was later bought by Carter Color, and abandoned.
origins of civilization - this is a request to synthesize the literature written on the topic of the origins of civilization and the rise of the state; this is not included in the civilization article
Ace Day - occurred first on May 8, 2015; planned to do so in the future; day to raise asexual awareness and pride through several social media outlets; was voted by over 2,000 people; [24]
LGBT rights support in companies - support of LGBT rights, in detail, from companies; categorized by headquartered country, then state, province, etc.
LGBT rights opposition in companies - opposition of LGBT rights, in detail, from companies categorized by headquartered country, then state, province, etc.
Article seems to focus on neighbourhood as a whole rather than singling out any specific hotel, I suggest adding content to Tenderloin, San Francisco and/or solidifying existing information into an LGBT section if necessary.
Trans Health Conference - annual meeting of transgender people, advocates, and healthcare providers
Trans* Pride Brighton - Charity. Founded in 2013. Holds an annual Trans Pride event in Brighton, UK including a march and festival event. First event of its kind in Europe. Growing in size with over 2,000 unique visitors at this year's festival and over 1,000 participants in the march.

I'd like a way to compare different "gay libel" cases that have been lodged, from Oscar Wilde to Tom Cruise to Liberace to Robbie Williams. I'm considering making a category, but the category name Gay Libel Cases seems anachronistic since the word "gay" wasn't used that way in Wilde's time. I'm also expecting pushback on linking gay libel cases which involved people later outed, like Oscar Wilde and Liberace, with gay libel cases involving straight people, like Tom Cruise and Robbie Williams. What do people think would be the best wording for a category like this to avoid offense & also avoid an overly long Category name? Markwiki (talk) 00:04, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sexuality-based defamation would probably be the most accurate, using "defamation" instead of "libel" to be inclusive of slander and false light (even though false light isn't quite considered defamation, the page is in the Defamation category, so it's close enough).

ha-yom harat olam - meaning "Today the world is born"; phrase recited after blessing at the end of each of the three sections of the Rosh HashanahMusaf
Hindi Particles - The particles of Hindi should be explained in more depth and precision. The topic is also discussed in Grammatical particles but lacks clarity about the topic(Grammatical particles#Hindi). The new article on it should be created.
lexical phonology - An approach to phonology that accounts for the interactions of morphology and phonology in the word building process (https://glossary.sil.org/term/lexical-phonology). This theory has been mentioned by ~10.000 papers and books (according to google scholar).
oppositive case and situative case - in Finnish (if you can call these constructions "cases") (rarely used); but even if they were not "cases" (only used for adverbs and nouns), it would still be important to know when and how they are used; both the oppositive and situative case express the location of two things compared to each other; the oppositive case with the meaning "facing each other"; the situative case has the ending -kkain / -kkäin, the oppositive case the ending -tusten / -tysten; Mäkinen, Panu.

Oral skill (The necesary ability or abilities which allows a person to speak correctly and in a way someone else can understand clearly)
Proto-Sinhala - Saw this linked on a page but it doesn't have a page, would be nice to see.
reference grammar - a work which fully describes an individual language's grammar
Speech Accent Archive#Elicitation Paragraph - The speech accent archive is a project of George Mason University and is a collection of thousands of professional and amateur recordings of English spoken with different accents and dialects. All recordings feature the same elicitation paragraph which can be found here http://accent.gmu.edu/howto.php. This would complement Harvard sentences nicely and fit into the standard test items template. I think the speech accent archive would be stronger as a page than the elicitation paragraph itself, but this information could be added to the GMU page otherwise.
Spoopy - a slang word derived from a misspelling on a Halloween decoration from 2014; [46]; [47]
The one source I found[5] which uses this term uses it in a different context, and so I think this is generally just called "degemination",[6] which is discussed briefly at the end of the phonology section of Gemination.
syntactician - an individual working in or associated with the study of syntax within the field of linguistics
Texan Spanish - the unique form of Spanish that is spoken by Tejanos in Texas; it is debated among linguists whether it is a dialect or its own language; many non-linguists and laypeople insist it a bastardization of English and Spanish
Understanding Computers and Cognition – a 1987 book by Terry Winograd and Fernando Flores; a great arch from philosophy of language to computer design; outlines classic language theory and shows how its language-is-to-describe-objective-reality paradigm fails to provide a useful foundation for applied artificial intelligence; then proposes an alternative perspective on language as a means of communication and coordination among social biological beings "being in the world", based on works of Gadamer, Maturana and Heidegger; results in an outline of computer software design that will support such real-life communication
vocal placement - refers to how one positions their voice resonance within their body. Mastering this can help someone sound more like a native speaker of a given language. Most pages on the internet only mention the vocal placement for English. It'd be nice if Wikipedia covered the subject both for English and for other languages.
Porto Maravilho Projectpt:Porto Maravilha - an urban-renewal Mega-project currently underway in Rio de Janeiro; planned as part of the improvements to the city in anticipation for hosting the 2016 Summer Olympics; notable since it is directly related to an international event that will be attended and viewed by many people; project has sociological significance because the government and Olympic organizing committee have claimed it will benefit the residents living there as well as the city as a whole;([49]) academic researchers and activists claim that the project will only benefit the rich residents living south and north of the port zone, the construction companies, and the government; also, there have been reports of favela (aka an informal settlement or slum) residents being evicted by the Municipal Housing Secretary and having their homes condemned for demolition based on "natural disaster risk assessments" and to make way for construction projects for little to no compensation; [50]; [51]; [52]
Self-staging - personal-branding mechanisms and reflexes directly induced by the design and interface of social media, users of these media are therefore in a position where they stage their lives on their profiles (given moments, framing, angles, filters, etc.), rather than sharing it, e.g.

Social questionde:Soziale Frage - specifically the concept called in German Soziale Frage - "... the social grievances that went hand in hand with the modern European population explosion and the industrial revolution, [1] that means the social accompanying and follow-up problems of the transition from the agricultural to the urbanizing industrial society". There's an article about this in de.wikipedia - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soziale_Frage , and in half a dozen Wikipedias in other languages. Many articles in English-language Wikipedia reference this phrase, some apparently in this specific sense.
Social scalability is the ability of an institution to overcome shortcomings in human minds and in the motivating or constraining aspects of said institution that limit who or how many can successfully participate.

Sources: (In addition to this media - there was also an appearance on Sunrise (morning TV program in Australia) but it must have been archived or something?)
Stop Education Discrimination Against Iranians (SEDAI campaign) This is a campaign started in May 2014 in Norway following the restrictions for university admission and resident permit of Iranian students in technical field with justification of UN sanctions and domestic export control.

Awakenings disability arts festival - a challenge to my peers in Australia! I'm currently writing a new article about the InterACT disability arts festival in Auckland, New Zealand. Our festival was inspired originally by the Awakenings disability arts festival of Horsham, Victoria, Australia. I've added Awakenings to the Culture section for Horsham, with a reference.

I've been exploring wikipedia, and found that we have a few stubby articles like Stereotypes of Argentines.. and that got me thinking: how about an article on Stereotypes of countries/Country stereotypes?? There's an awesome source at The Guardian, which then splits off into 6 articles on Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, and Spain. These sources are particularly good as they don't just state and explain the stereotypes, they also say how close they are to the actual situation in the country. This subject is very fascinating, and would love to get stuck in, however I do feel that you guys would be a lot better at putting this article together than I. Perhaps instead an article entitled National stereotypes - GoogleBooks seems to have a wealth of info on this topic.

Animated Armor - Armor that has been brought to life by a supernatural force. Sometimes the Armor is possessed by the will of its owner, usually a ghost or spirit of a knight that once wore the armor. Other times it may be possessed due to a magical element. The animated armor has become a stock character or image in both supernatural and fantasy genres alike. The animated armor is usually found guarding castles or mansions for the owner. Other times they become focused on carrying out a mission they had in a previous life. A key element of the armor is that while it moves and fights as a knight, upon removing the helmet nothing will be present. [12][13][14][15]
