Systemic bias against Ahmadiyya in Pakistan
Formerly, "Pakistan and the apartheid analogy" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Pakistan_and_the_apartheid_analogy
The State of Pakistan's treatment of the Ahmadiyya Muslims has been compared by critics of Pakistan's policy to South Africa's treatment of non-whites during its apartheid era. , Pakistani constitution (in second amendment) officially declares Ahmadis as non-Muslims which in a Muslim majority country with preferential treatment for Muslims amounts to declaring Ahmadis as untouchables.
Ordinance XX as example of apartheid
The Ordinance XX categorically puts limitations on Ahmadi Muslims' rights and leaves their rights on the pleasure of majority.
ORDINANCE NO. XX OF 1984 PART II - AMENDMENT OF THE PAKISTAN PENAL CODE (ACT XLV OF 1860) (3) 298C... Any person of the Quadiani group or the Lahori group (who call themselves ‘Ahmadis’ or by any other name), who … invites others to accept his faith, by words, either spoken or written, or by visible representations, or in any manner whatsoever outrages the religious feelings of Muslims, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to three years and shall also be liable to fine.
This is both slavery and mob rule rolled into one law.
Political rights, voting and representation, judiciary
Ahmadi Muslims are required to declare themselves as non-Muslims against their beliefs which effectively bars Ahmadi Muslims form registering for vote and to stand in elections.[1] ..nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Judiciary has also bowed to the religious fanatics as is evident in a number of case decisions in recent years.[2]
Passports, National identification cards and Religious Profiling
Ahmadis are heavily profiled and every Pakistani has to curse Ahmadiyya beliefs when applying for Pakistani passport, Pakistani National ID cards and applying for jobs etc.
From official Pakistan passport application;
I …… hereby solemnly declare that:- (i) I am a Muslim and believe in the absolute and unqualified finality of the Prophethood of Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) - the last of the Prophets.
(ii) I do not recognize any person who claims to be a prophet in any sense of the word or of any description whatsoever after Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) or recognize such a claimant as a prophet or a religious reformer as a Muslim.
(iii) I consider Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Quadiani to be an impostor nabi and also consider his followers whether belonging to the Lahori or Qadiani group to be Non-Muslim.[3]
Media
In 2008, the Asian Human Rights Commission protested that the government of Pakistan had taken no action against a TV journalist who had made "stoked religious hatred" of the Ahmadi community.[4]
Ahmadiyya Muslims are not invited to present their views on the media , thus allowing only anti-Ahmadiyya prejudice to be spread in the Pakistan society.

National RTI Forum
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/National_RTI_Forum Result:Keep National RTI Forum is a grassroots anti-corruption organization in India that advocates for government openness under the terms of the 2005 Right to Information Act. The organization is based in Lucknow. Several of its activists have been murdered.
Owen Paul Honors, Jr
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Owen_Honors No Consensus defaults to Keep Could be called the cheater's way to Keep. I never feel entirely happy about a No Consensus close, even if I wanted the article. It usually turns into the cheater's way to delete, tho, by way of redirect or merge or deletion of undesirable info.
Wikipedia:DEL and Policy content such as WP:IDL that directly address the conduct of discussion should be the only standard.
DEL#Reason does not limit itself to its own provisions because policy does not automatically inform editors, should an exception come up. Essays such as Fancruft are not an exception, or they would have been listed; they are based on subjective assessments. Objective reasoning, not interpretations, is the way to make arguments in AfD. That is the reasoning behind IDONTLIKE (a discussion conduct rule); editor's subjective impressions of things are not good policy. Everything outside of DEL, that does not obviously present itself as being a problem necessitating additions to DEL, is Policycruft. Fancruft is particularly insidious because it allows what would be a strength in other articles, depth of information, to be used against articles on games, films, TV series and music. It is just systemic bias turned into an essay. Political articles are deleted without as much regard to rules, based solely on the political biases of the closer and 'voters'.

Justin Capră (born 22 February 1933) (Iustin) is a Romanian inventor. He was born in Măgureni, Prahova, Romania.
He invented and built small vehicles that consumed very little fuel. Before that, he invented an individual jet device, which allows a person to fly by jet.
His invention has never been patented or applied.
Without support from the Romanian government or private companies, he built his tiny vehicles mostly on his own. Capra's most famous car was the Soleta 150 Ecor; it had a total weight of 95 kg and was capable of covering 100 km on 0.5 liters of fuel.Template:Citation needed He also produced another model, the Soleta I.C.200, which could reach 67 km/h. None of his cars have been produced commercially.

Southern Cherokee Nation of Kentucky
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Southern_cherokee_nation_of_kentucky
The Southern Cherokee Nation of Kentucky are descended from "half blood" or "mixed-blood" Cherokee, a group of passionate Cherokee who signed the Treaty of New Echota with the US Government in 1835, which signed away much of the sovereign Cherokee territory in the southern Appalachian Mountains in exchange for lands in northeastern Oklahoma. The primary signatories of the treaty were subsequently assassinated by Pin Cherokee also known formally as the Original Keetoowah Society. A secret organization formed by a Christian missionary, and controlled by John Ross Principle Chief of the Cherokee Nation. Confederate Brigadier General Albert Pike wrote in 1861 that the Pin organization “was established by Evan Jones, a missionary, and at the service of Mr. John Ross, for the purpose of abolitionizing the Cherokees and putting out of the way all who sympathized with the Southern States.†[1][2]
History
The Southern Cherokee of Kentucky have gone by many names: They were originally known as the Overhill Cherokee, Chickamauga Cherokee, the Treaty Party, and during the American Civil War they became known as Southern Cherokee, and finally the Southern Cherokee Nation of Kentucky. The Treaty of New Echota was rejected by most of the Cherokee Nation, but the US Government enforced the Indian Removal Act of 1830 in what came to be known as the "Trail of Tears". An estimated 4'000 of 15'000 died during this enforced removal to Indian Territory. Most of those who had accepted the Treaty fought on the side of the Confederate States of America in the American Civil War. Ironically, at the end of the war many of the "Southern Cherokee" intermarried with "Freedmen", former Afro-American slaves that were also removed on the Trail of Tears. Subsequent warring between the Pin Cherokee and the "Southern Cherokee", and the death of Confederate Brigadier General Stand Watie in 1871, resulted in the fleeing of Southern Cherokee refugees across several States which included Kentucky.
The Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, (CNO), are recognized as the official Cherokee Nation, while those of the Southern Cherokee Nation of Kentucky, Southern Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, and the Sovereign SOUTHERN CHEROKEE Government are not Federally recognized. However, The treaty of 1866 was made with the Southern Cherokee to ensure they were protected from the Pin Cherokee. This treaty also guarantees all Southern Cherokee a separate government and jurisdiction.
Status
The Southern Cherokee Nation of Kentucky is a state recognized tribe now headquartered in Henderson, Kentucky, which is situated on the high banks of the Ohio River in an area once known as Red Banks by Native Americans. The Southern Cherokee Nation of Kentucky was recognized by past Governor John Y. Brown (1835–1904) on "Executive Letter Head" on December 26, 1893, and then by Governor Ernie Fletcher, via proclamation, on November 20, 2006. The city of Henderson, Kentucky also issued a proclamation recognizing the Southern Cherokee Nation of Kentucky on February 24, 2009. The Cherokee Nation of Kentucky is officially recognized in the Commonwealth of Kentucky by the Executive Branch of their host government. [3][4][5][6]

"Since 9/11 we’ve all grown accustomed to security procedures that, 11 years ago, most of us would have considered unreasonable intrusions on our liberty and privacy, all in the name of safety. That, I think, is the real measure of what terrorism does to a free society. It’s not the bombs or the airplanes that hurt us most, but the gradual intrusions into personal freedom that are implemented in response to those threats. Little by little, the freedom of movement we once knew is being chipped away and, in the event that we ever again face a mass terrorist attack with catastrophic loss, the stage will have been set for a ramp up in “security procedures†that will make America an unrecognizable shell of its former self." - Wikipedia:User:DamionMC72 .

Lifeboat Foundation
The Lifeboat Foundation is a non-profit organization aiming to reduce existential risks to ensure the survival of human civilization. It focuses on both natural and man-made threats by initiating a variety of programs and undertakings on its website. The foundation seeks to inform the public of the dangers of increasingly powerful technologies, including genetic and nanoengineering.[1] The misuse of such technologies by only a few individuals, it argues, could produce devastating results. It maintains a system—called GETAS—for alerting the public about changes in existential threat levels. It also has in its mission to encourage scientific and technological advancement. In the long run, the Lifeboat Foundation is promoting the establishment of self-sufficient space colonies to help preserve human society.
The foundation was created by American entrepreneur Eric Klien shortly after the terrorist attacks of September 11. It has several Programs and its Advisory Boards include over 1000 scientists and specialists. Lifeboat Foundation sponsors conferences, competitions, and research grants. It is funded entirely through membership dues (as of 19 November 2010: 1 232) and donations (as of 19 November 2010: 249) by individuals and corporations.[2]
Mission
In its mission statement on the lifeboat website, the organization states it is "dedicated to encouraging scientific advancements while helping humanity survive existential risks and possible misuse of increasingly powerful technologies, including genetic engineering, nanotechnology, and robotics/AI, as we move towards the Singularity." As part of its mission statement, the website indicates it is "pursuing a variety of options, including helping to accelerate the development of technologies to defend humanity, including new methods to combat viruses (such as RNA interference and new vaccine methods), effective nanotechnological defensive strategies, and even self-sustaining space colonies in case the other defensive strategies fail."[1]
History
Origins
Template:Refimprove Founder Eric Klien's interest in Libertarian principles led him in 1993 to start the Atlantis Project: "to build a floating city in the Caribbean Sea that would be free of the bureaucratic limitations of modern governments". The city was to be called Oceania.[3] The project was eventually abandoned due to lack of funding.[4]
The September 11th attacks led Klien to found a humanitarian organization "bent on the preservation of human life, against all odds".[5] The Lifeboat Foundation was established as a permanent nonprofit organization in October, 2002. Several of those who previously worked on The Atlantis Project joined the new foundation. The Lifeboat Foundation has steadily grown in its membership, financial position, and public exposure since its inception.
Guardian Award
The Guardian Award is presented annually by the Lifeboat foundation to "a respected scientist or public figure who has warned of a future fraught with dangers and encouraged measures to prevent them".[6] The following persons have received a Guardian award:
- 2004 Martin Rees[7] (English cosmologist)
- 2005 Ray Kurzweil[8] (American inventor, author)
- 2006 Robert A. Freitas Jr./Bill Joy[9] "proposing solutions to the dangers of advanced technology since 2000."
- 2007 James Martin[10] "in recognition of the achievements of his Future of Humanity Institute in studying global catastrophic risks and impacts of future technologies."
- 2008 Stephen Hawking[11] "in recognition of his continuous warnings that global catastrophic risks will eventually come and therefore it is unsafe and unwise for all of humanity to be on a single planet."
- 2009 Peter de Jager[12] "in recognition of his 1993 warning which alerted the world to the potential disaster that might have occurred on January 1, 2000."
- 2010 Russell Schweickart[6] "in recognition of his efforts for humans to escape the fate of the dinosaurs."
Conferences
The Lifeboat Foundation has co-hosted and sponsored conferences related to its mission. It cosponsored the Global Catastrophic Risks summit in Mountain View, CA.,[13] and the June 2010 H+ Summit.[14] The foundation was also media sponsor for the 2009 Singularity Summit in New York City[15]
Structure
The Lifeboat Foundation is structured with advisory boards, a board of directors, and a general staff. The board of directors includes founder Eric Klien as chairman, and four other directors; the advisory boards comprise a diversity of societal and scientific specialists; and the staff had 21 employees on November 12, 2010.[16][17] The foundation also has a technology research department that is charged with tracking new technological developments. The Lifeboat Foundation intends to operate as an umbrella organization; in case of growth, it plans on funding larger research grants and prizes rather than hiring more employees.[18]
Advisory Boards
The organization has formed advisory boards consisting of over 1000 specialists in various disciplines. Board members develop programs, or propose new areas in which the Lifeboat Foundation should be involved.[19]
There are also over a dozen Scientific Advisory Boards (SABs). The SABs are specifically focused on scientific questions, such as cosmology and neuroscience. Some of the SABs are dedicated to more technical fields like economics and information science. They comprise scientists from around the world, including Nobel Prize winners Clive Granger and Wole Soyinka.[19]
Finances
The Lifeboat Foundation is funded by donations and membership fees. Donations can go to either the general fund or a specific fund. The general fund is called the Lifeboat Fund and its website states a value of US$ 466,394.62 on October 29, 2010.[2]
Activities
GETAS
The Global Existential Threat Advisory System (GETAS) is the mechanism the Lifeboat Foundation uses to disseminate information about current existential threats. GETAS consists of five threat levels plus an emergency condition. The levels are designed to be cumulative; that is, the recommended precautions of each level build on those of lower levels. The current GETAS condition is displayed on the Lifeboat Foundation's website, and visitors can subscribe to receive email notifications if the level changes.
The goal of the warnings is to "to create a common vocabulary, context, and structure for an ongoing international, global discussion about the nature of the threats that confront our species on planet Earth and the appropriate measures that should be taken in response."[20] The system uses the internet to communicate rapidly to subscribers.
GETAS levels are set by "the Executive Director of the Lifeboat Foundation in consultation with the Scientific Advisory Boards".[20] The levels (and the explanations given by the Lifeboat foundation website) are as follows:
File:low.condition.jpg | "The low threat condition calls for only the most basic of protective measures. Since the creation of GETAS, the Lifeboat Foundation has not yet issued a low threat condition. Typical measures under a low threat condition include training Lifeboat personnel in GETAS procedures and maintaining Lifeboat facilities in a disaster-ready condition."[20] |
File:guarded.condition.jpg | "The guarded condition is declared when there is a general underlying risk of existential catastrophe. Under a guarded condition, the foundation will post any information that would aid in responding to potential disasters. Recommendations during a guarded threat level are similar to the common-sense recommendations provided by government agencies."[20] |
File:elevated.condition.jpg | "An elevated threat condition is issued when significant events point to a heightened state of risk. Since the beginning of GETAS, Lifeboat has raised the threat level to elevated only twice. For example, when North Korea detonated a nuclear device in 2006, it raised global political tension and prompted the Lifeboat Foundation to declare an elevated threat condition."[20] |
File:high.condition.jpg | "The high threat level would require significant coordination between organizations at the local, national, and supranational level to address risks." (never declared) [20] |
File:severe.condition.jpg | "The severe condition reflects an extreme global risk—the justification for this threat level should be a very clear event somewhere in the world. This level is not intended to remain in effect for a substantial amount of time. The Lifeboat Foundation would be primarily focused on coordinating emergency response efforts, closing public facilities and transportation systems, and preparing evacuations."[20] (never declared) |
File:emergency.condition.jpg | "An emergency condition indicates the occurrence of an existential catastrophe. At this point, the priority of the foundation would be to preserve human civilization. Lifeboat Foundation bunkers would be switched to autonomous power and hermetically sealed off from the outside world. Space evacuees would be launched to their designated space arks." (not yet declared)[20] |
Programs
The Lifeboat Foundation's website states programs to help assess and reduce existential risks. "Shield" programs are attempts to explicitly identify and mitigate threats posed by misuse of a particular technology. Examples include:
- AsteroidShield, aiming at detecting and altering the trajectory of asteroids and comets on a collision course with Earth, thus avoiding impact events.[21]
- BioShield, aiming at preventing and countering the effects of attacks with biological agents.[22]
- Space Habitats, designing and encouraging the technology for human colonies in space. The organization's website mentions design on a habitat called Ark 1, a "self-sustaining space habitat being designed to ensure the survival of humanity in the event Earth becomes uninhabitable".[23]
