Hey the more I think about it the algorithm is also a public record in the City of Portland... Also it is Fair Use. Please TALK HERE rather than reverting.
This information is potentially life saving.
If you want to go to Arb or talk here is what I propose: don't delete. I will notify the webmasters of the Red Cross site. I myself am a trained ARC shelter operations person and I have been on several mass evacuations and believe me the ARC is not going to have any problems.
Be sure to be aware of Fair Use intellectual property law.
My sister is an intel prop legal worker for the largest software company in the world and I am going to email this to her as well.
I myself am CUNY School of Law Class of 2000 and I am telling you this is a classic textbook case of Fair Use. Brothercanyouspareadime ( talk) 03:35, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
I did a cursory Google/Bing search but didn't find anything. I think a History section would benefit the article, including when the first warning shelters (v. general homeless shelters) were opened. I think it would provide good context to the article and information to the reader on whether this started recently, in the 1960s, the Great Depression, the Industrial Revolution, etc. — C.Fred ( talk) 03:46, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Not to be dismissive re the point ... I will look into extra caution when fleshing out this material on the four levels of standby because one thin about ARC is they are a little bit on the corporate-possessive side. Worst case scenario, will compose an encyclodpedic description, or obtain permission to use their language. The public agency/public record stuff is free to use but with full attribution, possibly in mainspace article text not all purely in italicized references. I think the key is whether it is a widely used system OR if they have kind of a pr9oprietary method. Brothercanyouspareadime ( talk) 04:54, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
This article needs to clarify whether "Warming center" is a purely US concept (with the one international aspect of Berlin, presumably operated by US) or whether it's a general term used world-wide. Do they exist elsewhere, and if so under what names? PamD ( talk) 09:25, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
add double curly brackets Cleanup-link rot|date=February 2011 add double curly brackets
Please go into edit mode to recover the curly brackets. Post the template at the top of the article if and only if there are excessive raw links. Better yet, then use the tool to correct the link rot.
Would it be better to have a Task Force to avoid admin overhead or is a Project the Way to GO? Brothercanyouspareadime ( talk) 01:19, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
Add more detail on specific Warming Center operations Add more detail on public comment regarding them finance, operations, training, use of professional vs volunteer organization of boards of directors. Translate into Spanish. Different countries' use.
