Raise Your Flag (Rewind 2019 edition)

Almost one year in my good article quest on two enwiki biographies, some updates:
  • Yes, I misinterpreted the intent of Björk's song, i.e., various aspirant countries not limited to Foroyar—always nice to get GMT as the favourite timezone—because raise your flag also works for other topics not limited to LGBTQ flags.
  • My dogma department always insisted on no male gods, and no male witches as corollary, with a female Roman luna vs. a male German moon as fun fact. Of course la lune is your friend, where le soleil is potentially aggressive, and die Sonne is your friend, where der Mond could be too cold for comfort. Wicca vs. Old English female wicce was news for me. Bye bye, Cerrunos, Karnaya, Herne, and Osiris, drawing the line at blasphemy. The main rule is a living person SHALL NOT be considered as goddess with tons of reasons, try queen if you are desperate.
  • For the pride flags I really don't care above one enwiki citation needed fix followed by a tumblr post, but it could be a nice project for 2020, get the labrys symbol into my Freeciv radius ruleset as proper flag for the Natives instead of stealing the Aleut flag, or recycling the NATO flag only because it starts with nat.
  • Otherwise All Quiet on the Western Front, the phans lost their bridge-head and the breach is heavily guarded, as always too late, but hey. The nerds wait for an endorsement from their queen. Nothing against AOC, Ball, or Iversen, but they are not my favourite coffee junkie.

Rewind 2018

Background, Richie Havens' Freedom at the top of Rewind 2019 celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Woodstock Festival in 1969.

BTW, two YouTube oddities, actually I picked Fatboy Slim samples Greta Thunberg’s speech to the UN during UK concert by The Guardian as playlist thumbnail, but that's not the first entry. Sharing YouTube playlists does not work as it should at the moment (on blogger + tumblr), only the first video of the playlist is shown, I added links for the playlists here and hope for a fix also for other posts with embedded playlists.

One of those magical effects, Yoko Ono had a blog Butter NotMargarine read by Mismade Girl, I once owned Ono's Walking on Thin Ice vinyl single, found the eponymous YouTube channel, and stumbled over this Live in Woodstock gem. Just to be clear, I got the three LP record set about ten years later, but that was my favourite song. Today it would be Jefferson Airplane – White Rabbit, Live from Woodstock 1969 featured as off by one (year) in the In principio (pt. 1: 1970-1999) playlist. 40 years ago this kind of magic seriously spookedimpressed me, now I enjoy it.🧙
