WikiSym2012 Deletion Discussions in Wikipedia: Decision Factors and Outcomesjodischneider
This document summarizes a study on deletion discussions in Wikipedia. The study analyzed 72 deletion discussions from a single day to understand the factors that contribute to deletion decisions and their outcomes. It found that four main factors—notability, sources, maintenance, and bias—accounted for 91% of comments and influenced 70% of discussions. Notability was sometimes overridden by other concerns like ensuring comprehensive coverage of a topic. The study aims to help newcomers, debate closers, and readers better understand Wikipedia's criteria for deletion.

Supporting and Enabling External EngagementBCE A&E
The document summarizes a project at Northumbria University that led to opening up the university's strict institutional IT systems. In 2006, Dr. Erik Bohemia wanted to enable global collaboration for design students but the university's IT systems were locked down. Through discussions with the university's Learning Technologies team member Ben Lovett, they started a project to explore using open source web 2.0 tools for international partnerships. This eventually led to a university-wide rollout of open source software and communication tools. The project changed the university by making IT resources more open and collaborative both internally and externally.

Can the Intranet Take Business Processes to the Next Level?M Dalton
The document discusses how nonprofits can use intranets to improve business processes and achieve organizational goals. It defines intranets as private internal networks that utilize internet technologies to facilitate communication between employees. The benefits of intranets for nonprofits include keeping employees informed through features like email, facilitating training and knowledge sharing, automating routine tasks, and providing easy access to information. Intranets can also cut overhead costs and help organize and share data between departments. While start-up costs vary, intranets provide a return on investment through reduced operating costs and staff turnover. However, challenges include reluctance of employees and compatibility issues during conversion. Overall, the document recommends that nonprofits allocate resources to implement some form of

core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
