	Actor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A female actor may be known as an actress, although the term "actor", is also used as a gender-neutral term.
		"Actor" is directly from the masculine Latin noun actor (feminine, actrix) from the verb agere "to do, to drive, to pass time" + the suffix -or "so./st. who performs the action indicated by the stem".
		Actors were traditionally not people of high status, and in the Early Middle Ages travelling acting troupes were often viewed with distrust.

		A female actor may be known as an actress, although some prefer the term "actor", using it as a gender-neutral term.
		Women actors sometimes play the roles of prepubescent boys, because in some regards a woman has a closer resemblance to a boy than does a man. The role of Peter Pan, for example, is traditionally played by a woman.
		The exception to this is voice actors in animated films, where boys are generally voiced by women, as heard in "The Simpsons".

	Disambiguation Encyclopedia Article, Information, History and Biography @ LaunchBase.org (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		Disambiguation serves a single purpose: to let the reader choose among different pages that closely relate to various meanings of a particular term (some of which might logically utilize said term in a titular fashion).
		Disambiguation should not be confused with the merging of duplicate articles (articles with different titles, but regarding the very same topic, for example "Gas Turbine" and "Gas turbine", or "loo" and "restroom").
		Disambiguation descriptions should not be created for subjects whose only articles are on pages of sister projects, even if the disambiguation page already exists (e.g., the poll on 9/11 victims).

		It is also not the purpose of disambiguation pages to be a list or an index of all things with a certain text in it -- they are not search indices and are pretty useless as such.
		The purpose of disambiguation pages is to list articles with the same title where I'd otherwise have no idea where to find them.
		I believe we should set a clear policy that - Disambiguation pages should link only to pages that actually exist - otherwise, if the subject is worth describing, it should get a brief description on the disambig page.

		Acting is the work of an actor/actress, a person in theatre, film, or any other storytelling medium who tells the story by portraying a character and, usually, speaking or singing the written text or play.
		From the Latin word agĕre meaning "to do", this is precisely what acting is. In acting, an actor suppresses or augments aspects of their personality in order to reveal the actions and motivations of the character for particular moments in time.
		The actor is said to be "assuming the role" of another, usually for the benefit of an audience, but also because it can bring one a sense of artistic satisfaction.

	Gary (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		This is a disambiguation page; that is, one that just points to other pages that might otherwise have the same name.
		According to the Social Security Administration, Gary was relatively rare as a given name in the 1900-1920s period (e.g., in the 1910s it was the 677th most frequent name, given to less than 0.01% of the babies born in that decade).
		In the 1930s, 0.38% of the male babies in America were named Gary, and in the 1950s as many as 1.54% of the male babies were given this name, making it the 12th most popular given name of that decade.

	TADSver.Mac (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		In order to produce better messages when actors are involved, the system now attempts to figure out whether an object in a command refers to an actor, and if so, to determine whether the actor should be called "him" or "her".
		Since you could only specify one actor for an entire command line in past versions, this meant that the actor was used for every command on the line; with this new version, an actor remains in effect until another actor is specified.
		Previously, the system validated and disambiguated an actor by pretending that you were attempting to take the actor - takeVerb.validDo and the actor's verDoTake were used to validate and disambiguate the actor, when all you wanted to do was speak to him.

	Actor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		A female actor may be known as an actress, although an increasingly large group prefer the term "actor" because of its gender-neutrality.
		During the Rennaissance, and for much of the subsequent century, deceased actors were buried at a crossroads, with a bowl and, in some cases, a stake through the heart, in much the same manner as a Vampire.
		Today, the term "actor" is often used to refer to both men and women, as some consider the term "actress" to be sexist.

	Disambiguation Algorithm
		Therefore, it is not possible to disambiguate the word plant using the entity#1 specification mark, and it will be necessary to go down one level of the hyponym hierarchy by changing the specification mark.
		Finally, it is possible to disambiguate the word plant with the sense #2 using the {plant#2, flora#2} specification mark, because of this sense has the higher word density (in this case, 3).
		If the word cannot be disambiguated in this way, then it will be necessary to continue the disambiguation process applying a complementary set of heuristics.

	tag when the game is operating in HTML ("\H+") mode. The character-mode version simply suppresses all text displayed ...
		When this is true, the function should not allow syntax that is obviously inappropriate for an actor, such as the word "all," or a string or number; in such cases, the function should simply return an empty object list to indicate that no valid actor is present.
		The 'actor' parameter is the actor involved in the command.
		This flag allows the disambiguator to select in favor of the noun interpretation in case of ambiguity, to avoid having to ask a stupid disambiguation question ("which letter do you mean, the parchment letter, or the letter opener?" should clearly not be asked).

	TADS 3 Action Results
		Note that this doesn't require that the object is actually making any noise, or that the actor can perceive the kind of noise it's making; it merely requires that the object is within "hearing range" of the actor, using the normal sense connection system.
		This is similar to travelerDirectlyInRoom, but applies directly to the actor performing the command, even if the actor isn't the same as the traveler (the traveler differs from the actor when the actor is in a vehicle, for example).
		Instead, it uses an object provided by the command's target actor - that is, the actor to whom the command is directed: Bob in "bob, go north," for example.

	Parsing Fundamentals
		Whenever a verification or action method is called, the system includes the actor to whom the command was directed as an argument.
		If the command is being carried out by the player actor, the message displayed is the same as the original; however, if the command is directed to another character in the game, the terms are all replaced by something appropriate to that character.
		The first step in disambiguating an object name is to apply the visibility and access rules.

		In other cases, an actor might not be able to travel in a certain direction unless they’re carrying a certain object.
		The parser provides a built-in function that lets you determine the actor, verb, direct object, preposition, and indirect object of the current command, regardless of whether any of those objects are passed as parameters to the current method.
		The “actor” parameter is the actor object for the command for which the objects are to be resolved.
