Presentations of noneffective orbifolds

<p style="text-align:justify;">It is well known that an effective orbifold M (one for which the local stabilizer groups act effectively) can be presented as a quotient of a smooth manifold P by a locally free action of a compact Lie group K. We use the language of groupoids to provi...
