Re:[1] - I think the subject is notable and made a justifiable stub. If you disagree, can you bring it atWT:POLAND for further discussion? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk22:50, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for expanding this article. I think we canDYK it soon, but could you add inline references? Since you can read Italian, I see there are plenty of sources, including some full view books onGoogle Print. I have found some online Polish sources, but they are not very extensive. I will now take a break from editing this article to avoid edit conflicts. If that's fine with you, after you are done expanding and referencing the article with Italian sources, I will add the Polish ones. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk18:40, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
When you create articles better than stubs, such asItaly–Poland relations, I suggest you add a few inline references and submit them toT:TDYK, so that your work can appear on Wikipedia's main page. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk21:20, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I have been looking at the edit history ofItaly-Yugoslavia relations and found the most recent entries rather difficult and time consuming to go through due to the paucity of edit summaries. Your newest entries contain just the words "Removed duplicated map". I would draw your attention toWikipedia: Basic copyediting, the "Edit summaries", particularly line eight, which starts "Generally speaking..."
Happy editing

| On26 January 2011,Did you know? was updated with a fact from the articleFrancesco Nullo, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was... thatFrancesco Nullo is commemorated in bothItaly andPoland as a hero of those countries' struggle for independence? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page(here's how,quick check) and add it toDYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on theDid you know? talk page. |

You mention himhere. I cannot find any ref to verify this, or anything to even prove he was notable. I suggest that if you can reference him, you move the note on him to the newly expandedbattle of Krzykawka. Also, you may findthis article of interest (email me if you cannot access the full version). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk18:17, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think this sort of thing is allowed, meaning having a personal version of an article and ignoring edits from other users. For example when you copy your own version into the article you wiped out all changes by others. Obviously that shouldn't happen. This would only lead to reverting between the version instead you should edit the standing article.Tüzes fal (talk)21:36, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The reason why I removed that section was because I could see no clear connection to Tymoshenko in it. Now, I'll admit, I know next to nothing about Ukrainian politics (and when editing, I don't usually stray too far from the Formula One pages), but reading over the page at the time, there was a lot on Tymoshenko and nothing to tie it back to the explosions. In its current form, I'm not seeing anything that directly links the explosions to Tymoshenko, aside from Dnipropetrovsk being her birthplace and the photos being released. It's too circumstantial, and despite being properly referenced, its presence implies that the explosions took place as a form of protest or a political statement about Tymoshenko, but there is nothing to substantiate that implication. But I'm not going to continue to edit the page. I don't know enough about the subject - the closest I get to the Ukraine is a friend from Moldova - and don't have access a wide range of sources on the subject. I only really edited it in the first place because I saw that the page needed to be written in more-encyclopaedic terms.Prisonermonkeys (talk)11:22, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please revert your edits and move of the article Polje Čepić to Zatka Čepić in all Wikipedia languages and side projects. As you can see in the2011 census, in the municipality Kršan of the county of Istria there two separate settlements - Polje Čepić with 148 inhabitants, and Zatka Čepić with 31 inhabitants. Your move was unsubstantiated, itwas about village Polje Čepić, and not small hamlet Zatka Čepić. Easy check of the sources used in the article, "Population" note, and its history, aim to this conclusion. Your move was without sense and reason. Zatka Čepić is so irrelevant is not even mentioned in the Istrian Encyclopedia. Return all articles and links how were previously.--Crovata (talk)22:18, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I moved your newly created article to a draft space. The new title isDraft:Morten Jung-Olsen. Based on the sources provided and based on my own searches, it seems there is not enough support for this article as biography of a living person perWP:BLP, especially given the claims made in this article. This is contentious material and all the negative claims need to be backed up by independent reliable sources, again please seeWP:BLP. I have translated your references and they do not seem to be sufficient. In any case, please go throughWP:AFC for release of this article.

Hello there,
Thanks for your edits, but it's not customary to repeat link names that have already been linked once. I reverted the edits, but don't be confused by my classification of my revert as vandalism, because that was referring to the anon that edited before you and removed sourced content. Just to be clear, I don't consider your edits to be vandalism, but I do think there is no need to link, for example, James Bissett or Michel Chossudovsky more than once. I hope we can agree on that!

Hi, thank you foryour edit adding context for theList of mosques in Bosnia and Herzegovina article.

Either way, thanks for your contribution.

Hello Dans,
I wanted to let you know that I just taggedJoseph Cachia Caruana for deletion, because it seems to becopied from another source, probably infringing copyright.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you cancontest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note onmy talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

I understand your good intentions atWT:Harassment but I think it is better to not feed that sort of thing. Accordingly I removed your post. There is nothing people at Wikipedia can do about off-site attacks on editors other than resist those who might attempt to bring the battle here. In general, if someone is concerned about outing, they should email an administrator or email theArbitration Committee. That is not necessary in this case because they are aware of the situation.Johnuniq (talk)22:45, 23 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dans, I noticedyour recent RFPP forDubravka Šuica and your post onUser talk:Highspeededit and just wanted to drop you a note on how to more effectively deal with characters like this. Firstly, in this particular case, as the changes in question were done two weeks ago, their edits (which I wouldn't considerunambiguous vandalism, by the way) would be considered stale and not ripe for immediate admin attention. Secondly, if you're noticing one user in particular persistently editing a page non-constructively,WP:RFPP isn't really the appropriate venue for reporting them; generally, you would post toWP:AIV, though not in this case as the edits, as said before, are both stale and not unambiguous vandalism. Thirdly, there are several successiveUser talk warning messages that should be placed on any disruptive editor's talk pagebefore reporting them anywhere in order to give them ample warning, as most administrators won't consider sanctioning them if this hasn't been done. There are several tools that simplify this process, I'd recommend looking intoTwinkle orRedWarn.
Sorry for the wall of text by the way, but I do think this might be useful information to you. Have a nice day!AngryHarpytalk10:26, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In this edithere, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of ourcopyright policy.
I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.
I do occasionally make mistakes. We get hundreds of reports of potential copyright violations every week, and sometimes there are false positives, for a variety of reasons. (Perhaps the material was moved from another Wikipedia article, or the material was properly licensed but the license information was not obvious, or the material is in the public domain but I didn't realize it was public domain, and there can be other situations generating a report to our Copy Patrol tool that turn out not to be actual copyright violations.) If you think my edit was mistaken, please politely let me know and I will investigate.S Philbrick(Talk)02:00, 1 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
