Where can I find out how long it usually takes PS2 videogames to sell on EBay? Thanks--99.146.124.35 (talk) 03:02, 7 August 2012 (UTC)anonymous

: eBay auctions have a variety of auction lengths available to the seller so it entirely depends on how long they select. If you mean how many attempts well again that totally varies - this time on the age and quality and reputation of the product. I would suggest you "watch" a few items on ebay and monitor the results. The more you watch the more "accurate" the average you will gain... But there is no definative answer to this question. gazhiley 09:30, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

There's a way to check how much items have sold for on ebay. That function might also show how long the item was on the market for. 99.43.78.36 (talk) 14:19, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

:::LOL. Didn't realise that I had done an automatic translation. Oh well, I'm flexible. I hope the OP is. HiLo48 (talk) 19:40, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

:Are you asking about the schemes for books for elementary/primary schools which classify books according to difficulty? There's a lot of different schemes. The Oxford Reading Tree system goes (low to high) pink, red, yellow, blue, green, orange, turquoise, purple, gold, white.[http://www.oup.com/oxed/pdf/ORT_bookbands.pdf] Rigby Star is similar with lilac, pink, red, yellow, blue, green, orange, turquoise, purple, gold, white, lime.[http://www.pearsonschoolsandfecolleges.co.uk/AssetsLibrary/SECTORS/Primary/PDFs/StructureCharts/RigbyStarGuidedJun09.pdf]. The Enterprise Program from Renaissance Learning has a completely different scheme with even more levels[http://re.milfordschooldistrict.org/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=105603&type=d&termREC_ID=&pREC_ID=237937]. The Accelerated Reader scheme, popular in the USA and running up to grade 7, goes red, blue, orange, yellow, green, purple, gold star.[http://www.boiseschools.org/schools/jefferson/library/ar.html] --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:39, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

I've got a collection of news articles (PDFs) from 2005 on Hurricane Katrina: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Katrina. I am unsure of the best way to share this information. Would it be best to share on that page, or my company's page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acadian_Ambulance. We would like to share this information on the company page to communicate our history and significant role in the event.--Sabrina LeBeouf (talk) 18:06, 7 August 2012 (UTC)Sabrina LeBeouf http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Sabrina_LeBeouf

:The news articles are probably under copyright and we're very careful to obey copyright law, so you can't post them here. Are the articles about your company's role in dealing with Katrina? If so, the best thing to do is probably put links to them on the talk page of the article on your company. --Tango (talk) 18:58, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
