== [[Rahul_Verma_(social_activist)]] ==

You are requested to please reconsider your decision to delete above page. There are references available about the subject’s contribution to the society. This is not an emotional appeal but a request as this social worker keeps his foundation first before promoting himself, and work significantly towards the betterment and welfare of the society. If you go through their official website or other press coverage, you will find that all the work is done by him only and everywhere his name is mentioned along with his foundation. Thanks [[User:Shibanihk|Shibanihk]] ([[User talk:Shibanihk|talk]]) 07:36, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

== [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Number One (Star Trek)]] ==

Given that I've already [[User_talk:Jclemens/Archive_13#re:_Help_wanted.3F|showed you how]] to check notability of fictional topics, I'm afraid you have well and truly earned this:
{{trout}}
Feel free to continue to come to me for advice on fictional topics, especially if you don't want to continue looking silly. AfD'ing things like that makes me waste my time to make you look bad.  That's a lose-lose. [[User:Jclemens|Jclemens]] ([[User talk:Jclemens|talk]]) 01:33, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

== Lists of Polish politicians ==

What do you think about ruthless cleaning of [[List of Polish Socialist Party politicians]] and others from {{tl|Lists of Polish politicians by party}}? These are 80% in red. I am not aware of similar lists for other countries. [[User:Staszek Lem|Staszek Lem]] ([[User talk:Staszek Lem|talk]]) 16:17, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

== May 2017 WikiCup newsletter ==

The second round of the competition has now closed, with just under 100 points being required to qualify for round 3. [[User:Yellow Evan|YellowEvan]] just scraped into the next round with 98 points but we have to say goodbye to the thirty or so competitors who didn't achieve this threshold; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia. Our top scorers in round 2 were:

*{{flagicon|Scotland}} [[User:Casliber|Cas Liber]], led the field with five featured articles, four on birds and one on astronomy, and a total score of 2049, half of which came from bonus points.
*{{flagicon|Japan}} [[User:1989|1989]] was in second place with 826 points, 466 of which were bonus points. 1989 has claimed points mostly relating to anime and Japanese-related articles. 
*{{flagicon|South Australia}} [[User:Peacemaker67|Peacemaker67]] took third place with two FAs, one GA and seven GARs, mostly on naval vessels or military personnel, scoring 543 points.
*Other contestants who scored over 400 points were [[User:Freikorp|Freikorp]], [[User:Carbrera|Carbrera]], and [[User:Czar|Czar]]. Of course all these points are now wiped out and the 32 remaining contestants start again from zero in round 3.

[[User:Vivvt|Vivvt]] submitted the largest number of DYKs (30), and [[User:MBlaze Lightning|MBlaze Lightning]] achieved 13 articles at ITN. [[User:Carbrera|Carbrera]]  claimed for 11 GAs and [[User:Argento Surfer|Argento Surfer]] performed the most GARs, having reviewed 11. So far we have achieved 38 featured articles and a splendid 132 good articles. Commendably, 279 GARs have been achieved so far, more than double the number of GAs.  

So, on to the third round. Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points equally.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews]]. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! <small>If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small>  [[User:Godot13|Godot13]], [[User:Sturmvogel 66|Sturmvogel 66]] and [[User:Cwmhiraeth|Cwmhiraeth]] 13:16, 1 May 2017 (UTC)

==Disambiguation link notification for May 4==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[Sim Sang-jung]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Justice Party]]. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these [[User:DPL bot|opt-out instructions]]. Thanks, [[User:DPL bot|DPL bot]] ([[User talk:DPL bot|talk]]) 10:06, 4 May 2017 (UTC)

== Proposal ==

Hey Piotrus... here's a proposal:  You stop AfD'ing things that have a good redirect target, and just redirect them.  Then, if someone reverts you, come ping me about it and I'll help you find sources, or help with the AfD.  When you're nominating fictional elements--100% of which have been mergeable--for AfD, you're taking away the limited time I have to spend in Wikipedia improving articles.  Go through my other contributions for the past few months, and see what else I would be doing if I didn't have to be constantly demonstrating that you don't [[WP:BEFORE]] adequately.

Did you know that you can review your changes visually? 

[[File:VisualEditor visual diff tool - visual diff.png|alt=Screenshot showing some changes to an article.  Most changes are highlighted with text formatting.|center|frameless|245x245px]]When you are finished editing the page, type your edit summary and then choose "{{int:visualeditor-savedialog-label-review}}".  
In visual mode, you will see additions, removals, new links, and formatting highlighted.  Other changes, such as changing the size of an image, are described in notes on the side.

[[File:VisualEditor visual diff tool - toggle button.png|alt=Toggle button showing visual and wikitext options; visual option is selected.|center|frameless|220x220px]]

Click the toggle button to switch between visual and wikitext diffs.

[[File:VisualEditor visual diff tool - wikitext diff.png|alt=Screenshot showing the same changes, in the two-column wikitext diff display.|center|frameless|245x245px]]

The wikitext diff is the same diff tool that is used in the wikitext editors and in the page history. 

You can read and help translate [[:mw:Special:MyLanguage/VisualEditor/User guide|the user guide]], which has more information about how to use the visual editor.
</div></div>

Since the last newsletter, the [[:mw:VisualEditor|VisualEditor Team]] has spent most of their time supporting [[:mw:2017_wikitext_editor|the 2017 wikitext editor mode]] which is available inside the visual editor as a Beta Feature, and adding [[:mw:VisualEditor/Diffs|the new visual diff tool]]. Their workboard is available [[:phab:project/board/483/|in Phabricator]].  You can find links to the work finished each week at  [[:mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings|mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings]].   Their [[:mw:VisualEditor/Current_priorities|current priorities]] are fixing bugs, supporting the 2017 wikitext editor as a [[:mw:Beta Features|beta feature]], and improving the visual diff tool.   

=== Recent changes ===

A '''new wikitext editing mode''' is available as a Beta Feature on desktop devices.  The [[:mw:2017 wikitext editor|2017 wikitext editor]] has the same toolbar as the visual editor and can use the citoid service and other modern tools.  Go to [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures]] to enable the {{int:Visualeditor-preference-newwikitexteditor-label}}. 

A new '''[[:mw:VisualEditor/Diffs|visual diff tool]]''' is available in VisualEditor's visual mode.  You can toggle between wikitext and visual diffs.  More features will be added to this later.  In the future, this tool may be integrated into other MediaWiki components. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T143350]

The team have added [[:mw:Editing/Projects/Columns_for_references|multi-column support for lists of footnotes]]. The <code><nowiki><references /></nowiki></code> block can automatically display long lists of references in columns on wide screens.  This makes footnotes easier to read.  You can [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/1/?projects=Cite,VisualEditor,Wikimedia-Site-requests&title=Convert%20reference%20lists%20over%20to%20`responsive`%20on%20XXwiki&priority=10&parent=159895 '''request multi-column support'''] for your wiki. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T33597]

Other changes:
* You can now use your web browser's function to switch typing direction in the new wikitext mode. This is particularly helpful for RTL language users like Urdu or Hebrew who have to write JavaScript or CSS. You can use Command+Shift+X or Control+Shift+X to trigger this. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T153356]
* The way to switch between the visual editing mode and the wikitext editing mode is now consistent. There is a drop-down menu that shows the two options. This is now the same in desktop and mobile web editing, and inside things that embed editing, such as Flow. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T116417]
* The {{int:visualeditor-categories-tool}} item has been moved to the top of the {{int:visualeditor-pagemenu-tooltip}} menu (from clicking on the  [[File:VisualEditor - Icon - Menu.svg|alt="hamburger"|24x24px]] icon) for quicker access. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T74399] There is also now a "Templates used on this page" feature there. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T149009]
* You can now create <code><nowiki><chem></nowiki></code>  tags (sometimes used as <code><nowiki><ce></nowiki></code>) for chemical formulas inside the visual editor. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T153365]
* Tables can be set as collapsed or un-collapsed. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T157989]
* The {{int:visualeditor-specialcharacter-button-tooltip}} menu now includes characters for Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics and angle quotation marks (‹› and ⟨⟩) .  The team thanks the volunteer developer, [[:S:en:User:Tpt|Tpt]]. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T108626]
* A bug caused some section edit conflicts to blank the rest of the page.  This has been fixed.  The team are sorry for the disruption. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T154217]
* There is a new keyboard shortcut for citations:  <code>Control</code>+<code>Shift</code>+<code>K</code> on a PC, or <code>Command</code>+<code>Shift</code>+<code>K</code> on a Mac.  It is based on the keyboard shortcut for making links, which is <code>Control</code>+<code>K</code> on a PC or <code>Command</code>+<code>K</code> on a Mac. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T99299]

=== Future changes ===
* The VisualEditor team is working with the Community Tech team on a syntax highlighting tool.  It will highlight matching pairs of <code><nowiki><ref></nowiki></code> tags and other types of wikitext syntax.  You will be able to turn it on and off.  It will first become available in VisualEditor's built-in wikitext mode, maybe late in 2017. [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T101246]
* The kind of button used to {{int:Showpreview}}, {{int:showdiff}}, and finish an edit will change in all WMF-supported wikitext editors.  The new buttons will use [[:mw:OOjs UI|OOjs UI]].  The buttons will be larger, brighter, and easier to read.  The labels will remain the same.  You can test the new button by editing a page and adding <code>&ooui=1</code> to the end of the URL, like this:  https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Sandbox?action=edit&ooui=1  The old appearance will no longer be possible, even with local CSS changes.  [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T162849]
* The [[:mw:File:Edit_toolbar_-_2.png|outdated 2006 wikitext editor]] will be removed later this year.  It is used by approximately 0.03% of active editors.  See [[:mw:Editor|a list of editing tools on mediawiki.org]] if you are uncertain which one you use.  [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T30856]

== Pocket Bicycles Deletion tag deleted ==

such fun being meta. anyway, thanks for the headsup regarding this article. i found a reference, much to my own surprise, and kind of linked it (both directions) into what i consider its notability factor, i.e. the use of cables for stability in bike frames. which in its turn led to my impression that the whole concept of "bracing" with/without cables is terribly fragmented on wikipedia. so i did some mucking around in disambigs and see alsos, but probably will do more later. which will probably involve more linking to the pocket bikes page, maybe... anyway, removed the deletion notice, for now. thanks again.

Hi, I have removed the [[WP:PROD|prod]] tag you placed on [[Holoverse]], as it was [[WP:REFUND|undeleted]] on May 8 ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Holoverse]) and per policy is ineligible for prod.

Why, exactly, do you continue nominating notable things for deletion?  I've [[User talk:Jclemens/Archive 13#re: Help Wanted?|taught you to fish]], and yet you don't appear to do even the most basic searches expected by [[WP:BEFORE]].  I've offered to pre-review fictional topics for you; you never do.  What motivates you to behave in such an impolite manner?  How can I motivate you to work collaboratively and follow best practices?  Whatever that takes, it is almost certainly less work and less damaging to the encyclopedia than trying to clean up after your various inappropriate fictional element nominations...

== Tagging articles for deletion ==

Hello, I've come across some articles you've nominated for deletion via [[WP:PROD|proposed deletion]]. I just wanted to give you a heads up that the common best practice is to place deletion tags (speedy, prod, or AfD) at the ''very'' top of the article, before any maintenance tags. I have moved the tags you placed on [[Jedipedia.net]] and [[HashiCorp]], as they were below the maintenance/problem tags. This is not a terribly big deal, since you still put the deletion tags at the top of the articles before the article text, but as I said before it's a common best practice. 

Also it's not a good idea to embed an AfD tag within a {{tl|multiple issues}} template, as the AfD tag gets obscured. I've moved the AfD tag you placed on [[Holoverse]] out of the {{tl|multiple issues}} group and to the top of the article. Again, not really against policy as far as I know, just not good practice. 

Since you're involved in nominating articles for deletion and adding maintenance tags to articles, and you've been around a while, I'd suggest enabling [[WP:TW|Twinkle]] on your account. It's completely optional, but it makes nominating articles for deletion and adding maintenance tags a lot easier. Thanks for your efforts to improve Wikipedia. &mdash;<span style="color:#808080">[[User:Kuyabribri|'''KuyaBriBri''']]</span><sup><span style="color:#008080">[[User_Talk:Kuyabribri|''Talk'']]</span></sup> 15:55, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

== SpiraTeam ==

Hello, I see your comments on the page I created. 
"I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. " It was deprodded by User:Nicacedric (WP:SPA, creator) with the following rationale "Thank you for your feedback or concern regarding notability. I respectfully but strongly disagree - please look at the 8th reference to see one of the strongest links proving that the information is verifiable and written by a third-party leader". I am not impressed by reference 8, a website with a title like http://searchsoftwarequality.techtarget.com seems almost to be saying 'we review whatever you pay us for'. TechTarget "sells marketing programs and data analytics services for targeted sales and marketing efforts". Marketing, aka spam, is what this entry is. Per WP:CORPSPAM, this is a good example of Yellow-Pages like company spam. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:56, 23 May 2017 (UTC)"


I am a bit frustrated because, within the software industry, Tech Talks is actually a very reputable. Just to be clear, TechTarget writes articles only on the more important
products and I know the company did not pay anything to them for any reviews or write ups. What is notable for other products (e.g.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranorex) that is not for SpiraTeam. All smaller companies all have lots of third party articles, studies, etc. so I am not clear what the
standard is exactly. People in the industry know of SpiraTeam and Ranorex. Gartner has included Inflectra SpiraTeam in its Magic Quadrant each year (only the top tools in the industry get
listed):

== DYK review on Cenker ==

Thank you for the positive review. I request that e Columbia link not be added however. In fact adding any other links (like to RCA) would be a mistake. The reason is that if someone follows the Columbia link (or any other) from the hook to another article they will not see anything about the info I used in the hook. The Columbia article for example is a general article about that Space Shuttle. There is not even anything about Bob Cenker there, never mind anything about the narrowly averted explosion. If they are interested in details on Columbia, once they are reading the Cenker article, there are plenty of links not only to Columbia but other related items in the Cenker article, including the article for that specific shuttle mission, the Space Shuttle Program, NASA, RCA, etc. Thanks again!

== Proposed deletion of Florence Gabrielle Abiola Adeniran ==

Hi Piotr,

For your consideration, this article meets criteria of General Notability and Notability (Biographies) because, in a country with the seventh largest population in the world (Nigeria, 186 million) and where female empowerment remains challenging, the person is the FIRST Nigerian woman to achieve national success at the highest institutional levels in the medical field which remains dominated by men and beginning at a time (1953) when such success was extraordinary. This is verifiable.

For people, however, rather than notability, the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be "worthy of notice" or "note" – that is, "remarkable" or "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded" within Wikipedia as a written account of that person's life. 

To have been the only woman in medical school in West Africa from 1948 to 1953 is highly remarkable.

Any indigenous surgeon who was performing operations in West Africa in the 1950s is worthy of notice. There were so few.

This person was notable and remarkable enough to be photographed and published in Life Magazine (May 4, 1953), a reliable source, independent of the subject and the glossy magazine Wikipedia of its day.

This person is significant, whether dead or alive. It is incidental that the subject is alive.

The person is regarded as an important figure among peers and successors.

This person is well-known to have contributed greatly to the knowledge and management of malnutrition in maternal and child health among casualties during the Nigerian Civil War (1967 - 1970), a major historical event where between 500,000 and 2 million civilians died from starvation.

This person is very important to the history of women breaking boundaries per se.

The article has reliable information on the subject.

The article has been edited to be more neutral, verifiable, and encyclopedic about the person.

The article is sourced by sufficient reliable sources, independent of the subject. It should be borne in mind that 60 years ago and until recent times, record-keeping in the part of the world where the person is mainly situated has been historically poor. Internet upload of published sources remains scant.

Inline citations have been added to the article's list of references, related reading and external links. 

Wikipedia appears to have few, if any, editors from West Africa who would readily understand the notability and nuance of this person among internet users in that part of the world. Some regions just happen to have more dedicated writers. Not to have this article because the person is perceptibly unknown or not well known among usual editors and usual readers encourages systemic bias on Wikipedia.

A couple of requests, Piotr:

(1) Kindly help to improve this article by further editing it to be more neutral and encyclopedic.
(2) Kindly advice where to look for further sources to improve the article.

Thank you.  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Amadeniran|Amadeniran]] ([[User talk:Amadeniran#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Amadeniran|contribs]]) 15:44, 29 May 2017 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Whilst the references which I added on this are admittedly few, the concept itself is (as far as I know) unique, and as it now seems reasonably established within the Edinburgh arts scene, I feel the concept of combining these artistic fields is noteworthy in its own right and likely to be expanded. The article is specifically written to focus upon the concept rather than the current cafe which houses the concept. There is a lot more newspaper and magazine coverage of the idea but I did not add all as it mainly repeated the main themes. Does it help if I add more of these references?? --[[User:Stephencdickson|Stephencdickson]] ([[User talk:Stephencdickson|talk]]) 11:35, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

I don't understand what's missing. Do you think ELLS is not notable enough to exist on Wikipedia? For example there is a short article about University of Hohenheim where they talk about world rankings and the ELLS network. You can see for yourself that ELLS is a big deal at several top-ranked Life Sciences universities/colleges across the world, including Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Austria, China, USA,... So I don't think the ELLS article is dubious or not notable enough. Heck, on the German wiki there is no problem with ELLS for ages...

== We could use your help in reviewing some translations from Polish to English Comment ==

{{noping|Piotrus}} 15:27 4 Oct 2025 : == Can you help verify translations of articles from Polish  ==

Hello Piotrus,

Would you be able to help evaluate the accuracy of translations of Wikipedia articles from Polish  to English Wikipedia?

[[File:Language icon.svg|left|60px]]

This would involve evaluating a translated article on the English Wikipedia by comparing it to the original Polish  article, and marking it "Pass" or "Fail" based on whether the translation '''faithfully represents''' the original. Here's the reason for this request:

There are a number of articles on English Wikipedia that were created as [[Wikipedia:Translation#Machine translation|machine translations]] from different languages including Polish , using the [[mw:Content translation|Content Translation tool]], sometimes by users with no knowledge of the source language. The config problem that allowed this to happen has since been fixed, but this has left us with a backlog of articles whose accuracy of translation is suspect or unknown, including some articles translated from Polish. In many cases, other editors have come forward later to copyedit and fix any English grammar or style issues, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the translation is accurate, as factual errors from the original translation may remain. To put it another way: '''Good English''' is not the same as '''good translation'''.

If you can help out, that would be great. Here's a sample of the articles that need checking: 
# [[Jerzy_Juliusz_Kijowski]]  {{pass}}
# [[Polish_Hamlet._Portrait_of_Aleksander_Wielopolski]]  {{pass}}
# [[Góra Ziuty]]  {{pass}}
# [[Agnieszka_Popielewicz]] {{pass}}
# [[Krzeszowskie_Wzgórza]] {{pass}}

All you have to do, is compare the English article to the Polish  article, and assess them "Pass" or "Fail" (the {{tl|Pass}} and {{tl|Fail}} templates may be useful here). (Naturally, if you feel like fixing an inaccurate translation and then assessing it, that's even better, but it isn't required.) Also please note that we are assessing '''accuracy''' not completeness, so if the English article is much shorter that is okay, as long as whatever has been translated so far is factually accurate. 

If you can help, please {{tl|ping}} me here to let me know.  You can add your pass/fails above, right next to each link, or you may indicate your results below.

:{{ping|Elinruby}} Done. If there is a list of backlog for Polish translation, please post at [[WT:POLAND]]. But in some cases, like the Hamlet article, as well as for [[Agnieszka Popielewicz]], it is clear that it was not a machine translation, but a well done translation, so the backlog seems to have a lot of false flags; making us review those articles is a waste of time, I think.

:::I kind of agree with the waste of time comment, but the alternative was seeing them deleted. So I thank you for your patience with the matter.. essentially someone got the idea that anything that used the CTX tool was garbage, and while there was in fact some garbage created, it was in my opinion no more so than in articles that did not use this tool.

I have been fighting a lonely battle for Poland. I have produced one book in English, and am finishing a second. And there are two large project in conjunction with the Sikorski Institute. I truly believe than in typical Polish fashion it is hard to get the Poles to get their stories out there. The West has little understanding of Poland, and partly because there is not enough information out there. And as you say Wikkipedia is the place of the future, and present.  Which is why I started this effort. And yes its a bit discouraging to have so many beat one up. I will try to continue and not give up. But many comments are not very logical. There are plenty of Wikipedia pages out there with little importance or few references...I will join the Poland desk. Again it is all a matter of persepctive. A mid level US dimplomat in the State Dept will have his page but will  be uninteresting to Poles, and will not have a page in Polish Wikipedia. English Wikipedia should be seen not exclusively as a US domain...its where most worldwide info should be...so dificil to measure under an " American" viewpoint. --[[User:Gzegosh|Gzegosh]] ([[User talk:Gzegosh|talk]]) 10:48, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

Witam
Forgive me for so many questions..I have been involved actively in Wikipedia for less than a month, and so have just begun the learning curve, and feel a bit blind, and groping my way along. 
1. I have now various pages up for review and wonder when their fate will be decided: Aleksander Piotr Mohl, Karol Hutten-Czapski(seems like will not be deleted...but still does not appear in a google search),and in the draft box as you suggested, Francis Stanislaw Hutten-Czapski. Could you take a look at these three to see where I stand with them? The complaint of not enough references for Mohl I think is more than satisfied now...at least I hope so..must be over 30 refs.
2. Cant find where to add watch list on WP Poland..obviously dont want to put myself on list of Talks as editor, as I know so little.
3. I have asked various times on how to get into edit categories or actual references...{{reflist}}, which I guess is the template...but as I say cant figure out how to access it, to make revisions or additions.
4. My idea is to start building on the Czpaski family, which I know and have some references in my library. There are many Polish patriots in that family that are not included in Wikipedia(Bogdan/Emeryk Augustus, Maria, etc)
5. I also would like to help re military subjects, but when I check out specific pages, is that there are editors that have overwhelmingly more knowledge than I do. SO not so sure how much help I can be

again forgive me...but I do need a guide of sorts

:: Not sure why your reply to me dosent appear here. I thank you again for your guidance. Obviously your cleaning up of the references looks ten times better...As I have said I just cant figure out how to access the individual refs to edit them. I have been going around in circles. If I go to Karol Czapski, and I press the main page edit button...all is accesible...except the refs..which appear as  Reflist  without showing the individual refs..I cant figure it out. I use URLs directly to imbed the ref, because I cant access the detail below the ref heading, and therefore cant type in the description and link the URL in the ref detail...so i do the shortcut of inserting the URL alone. I would like to clean up Karol as you did Francis. Following your advice went to User:Zhaofeng Li/reFill page..and it suggested paste Cleanup-bare URLs   on the bottom of the refs...I really would like to be less of a bother and at the same time more productive. I am not a young man, and do not have enough expertise or techincal experience or understanding to follow all the lingo. I will try to follow your suggestions. I do have the editor accepted. I see you apparenly left the Pilsudski Institute. An uncle of mine used to work there, Francis Pusloski. But that was many years ago, he passed away in the 90s. On the talk page in the help page I asked if there was anyway to hire a Wikepedian editor or expert to help out on this project. And by the way you are right..leaving Mohls page open..has helped me, also into delving deeper into research...which has been an interesting experience....Icewhiz found an interesting reference..of some disciplinary action against Mohl in 1942, and I wonder if it is a consequence of the Donovan leak. I am contacting the Hoover Institute to try to get into that file.

== Complaint against the aticles deletion ==

Dear Piotrus,

I learn that you are one of the super active and most active Wiki contributors. I can't help but say that your marked for deletion/deletions/redirects of [[Citrus Pay]], [[Little Eye Labs]], [[FINO PayTech]], [[Paytm Payments Bank]] etc are in poor taste. Either you did not spend time to Google about the subject of those articles for relevance and notability or you are not aware of the companies mentioned in those articles or the business value/notability of those companies in Indian context or this is a pure case of prodding in connection with the article discussions of a previous another article ([[Id fresh foods]]). [where  the majority who might know about the company (Indian context) have voted to KEEP].

I believe marking these articles as stub would have been more than necessary if you were unsure about the relevance. I would like to bring it to the attention of the people who might have a neutral and unbaised view about the articles mentioned above with some regional wiki members (to help with context and the following article's need to exist interms of influence in the economy/culture) can also voice their opinion about the relevancy. I hope you point me to the right people, links to take this conflict resolution forward. Thank you.

PS: I totally respect the vast contributions you have made to Wiki community and wish to do achieve even a fraction of you did, nothing personal here. The work you do here, the efforts you put in and the time to dedicate is highly commendable. [[User:Theaphorist|Theaphorist]] ([[User talk:Theaphorist|talk]]) 11:43, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

== WikiCup 2017 July newsletter ==

The third round of the competition has finished in a flurry of last minute activity, with 288 points being required to qualify for round 4. It was a hotly competitive round with all but four of the contestants exceeding the 106 points that was necessary to proceed to round 4 last year. [[User:Coemgenus|Coemgenus]] and [[User:Freikorp|Freikorp]] tied on 288, and both have been allowed to proceed, so round 4 now has one pool of eight competitors and one of nine.

Round 3 saw the achievement of a 26-topic Featured topic by [[User:MPJ-DK|MPJ-DK]] as well as 5 featured lists and 13 featured articles. [[User:PanagiotisZois|PanagiotisZois]] and [[User:SounderBruce|SounderBruce]] achieved their first ever featured articles. [[User:Carbrera|Carbrera]] led the GA score with 10, [[User:Tachs|Tachs]] achieved 17 DYKs and [[User:MBlaze Lightning|MBlaze Lightning]] 10 ''In the news'' items. There were 167 DYKs, 93 GARs and 82 GAs overall, this last figure being higher than the number of GAs in round 2, when twice as many people were taking part. Even though contestants performed more GARs than they achieved GAs, there was still some frustration at the length of time taken to get articles reviewed.

As we start round 4, we say goodbye to the fifteen or so competitors who didn't quite make it; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia. Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them (some people have fallen foul of this rule and the points have been removed).

If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, a featured process, or anything else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews]]. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs!

"I am not going to waste more time citing further examples, but I've seen this happen enough times. Someone (me...) references sentences. Someone else copyedits the article, removing what they think of are excess citations. AND/OR Someone else breaks paragraphs, creating unreferenced ones.

Hello! I'm interested in helping out in the Poland portal, but I'm new to contributing to Wikipedia so I don't really know where to start or where to go to connect with others also working on it. From what I can see you seem to be one of the main contributors in the area, so I thought I'd ask you for help. Do you have any advice?

== Nyaa Torrents "forks" ==

I've reverted you again with [[Special:Diff/790193388]] in article <cite>[[Nyaa Torrents]]</cite>. The edit summary box was a little short for this, but I'll point out multiple issues with your edit:

* <q>In the following weeks</q> seems to be [[WP:OR|original research]], not included in the reference cited and thus broadly interpreted. The date of updated publication may also shift well into the future, which also makes this claim potentially unreliable/unverifiable.
* No other reports in computer media have seemingly taken note of the clones listed. Compare to [[isoHunt]] article in example, where <q>[o]ne of them — isohunt.to — became a de facto replacement of the original site.</q> [[WP:VERIFIABILITY]] is in question again. Likely [[WP:SELFPUBLISHED]] or [[WP:USERGENERATED]], no information available of authorship or editorial policies there. If torrents.me was notable, it would probably have its own Wikipedia article – currently, it does not.
* The website (torrents.me) seems to promote self-interests, such as a VPN service (an ad disguised next to the search?) and their own search engine for torrents.
* It's borderline [[WP:ELNEVER]].

I have removed your submission at [[WP:3O]]. After reviewing the Talk page for the article in question, I note that there has not been a thorough discussion there.

== WikiCup 2017 September newsletter ==

Round 4 of the WikiCup has ended and we move forward into the final round. In round 4, a total of 12 FAs, 3 FLs, 44 GAs, 3 FLs, 79 DYKs, 1 ITN and 42 GARs was achieved, with no FPs or FTs this time. Congratulations to [[User:Peacemaker67|Peacemaker67]] on the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_topics/Ships_of_the_Royal_Yugoslav_Navy Royal Yugoslav Navy Good Topic] of 36 items, and the 12 featured articles achieved by [[User:Casliber|Cas Liber]] (5), [[User:Vanamonde93|Vanamonde93]] (3), Peacemaker67 (2), [[User:Adityavagarwal|Adityavagarwal]] (1) and [[User:12george1|12george1]] (1). With a FA scoring 200 points, and bonus points available on top of this, FAs are likely to feature heavily in the final round. Meanwhile [[User:Yellow Evan|Yellow Evan]], a typhoon specialist, was contributing 12 DYKs and 10 GAs, while Adityavagarwal and [[User:Freikorp|Freikorp]] topped the GAR list with 8 reviews each. As we enter the final round, we are down to eight contestants, and we would like to thank those of you who have been eliminated for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia. The lowest score needed to reach round 5 was 305, and I think we can expect a highly competitive final round.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed]]. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to reduce the review backlogs!

Well I think that shows how easy titling issues can be when the "English name" socks aren't present. But, if you don't mind this comment, it would help if Polish editors took a broader view of this problem on en.wp. The "English name" nuisance affects other articles too. It would be nice if Polish editors also took an interest in Spanish, Serbian etc titles - the "English name" socks certainly do.

== [[Organization]] and social movements ==

At [[Talk:Antifa]] there is a discussion about whether a social movement can be classified as an organization. I took a look at the article [[Organization]] and as someone who has studied a bit of organizational theory I think it's dreadful. Sections that don't match their main article, sections that are nonsense, etc. I'm also not sure about the definition. I rather like the definition in [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Organization&diff=prev&oldid=99140616#Organizational_structures this version] but I can't source it. Or rather I can, it seems to have been used in a number of books - published after it was added to our article. Typical. But it's been changed since.

I don't know what to do about the article. I'm tempted to gut it. I wish I could find a mainstream definition for the lead also.

Back to Antifa - one issue was the infobox. There don't seem to be any for political or social movements.

None of this might interest you of course, so feel free to ignore it all! It's not a high priority for me in any case. But you're the only one I can find who seems to have had some interest in the area.

== Wikipedia article topic ==

- Team member: So-jeong Yeon, Na Ji-eun (2 members)

- English Wikipedia article(EW): The topic of EW which we selected is the ''Spirited Garden''. The 'Spirited Garden' is a famous tourist attraction in Jeju-do which former presidents of Korea, and well-known people from all over the world visited. There is no Wikipedia article about this, though it is known as one of the most beautiful garden in the world. So we will make new page. 

- Korean Wikipedia article(KW): We will start to write new article about ''Erving Goffman's  theory'' in his book, ' ''The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life.'' ' He said that when an individual comes in contact with another person, he or she attempts to control or guide the impression. We think Goffman's theory is appropriate to explain the behavior of individuals in the globalization phenomenon that many people all over the world can be connected and communicate with each others through Facebook(SNS) today.

As far as we know, emoji was first developed in far east culture, such as Japan, China, and Korea.

Now that it is popular world wide, we thought that Asian character industry can not be ignored.

We discussed this topic with you before, and you said this topic is okay if it has enough sources.\
We've looked it up and found sources in newes from US and Korea.
And there were plenty of Korean bloges introducing this topic.

Piotrus,

I would like your written permission to use a photo of the 1931 census map - Mother tongue Poland 1931 which you posted on Wikipedia. I am publishing a book and need this permission. It is one of best resources explaining how dominant the Ukrainian population was in the area where my parents grew up - Stanisławów Województwo.

: @{{user|Piotrus}} Hi Piotrus - I apologize for being both representing a corp and for SPA -- my other account has my edits on my personal interests, and I didn't want to mix those.  I know lacking other references hurts this account's credibility.  I believe I am editing in good faith, and I do think the company is at a notable scale that warrants a Wikipedia page.  I'd request that you look at pages of other companies in the industry, and ask if all of those pages would also be justified for an AfD.  Smaller company examples: [[Verbling]], [[Preply]], [[Memrise]].  Larger or comparably-sized companies: [[Duolingo]], [[Wyzant]], [[VIPKID]].  Their pages are generally worse in both neutrality and in notable non-PR references.  I am also trying to understand what is the threshold for notability.  I believe italki is notable enough (as are those other companies and pages).  [[User:Kshanghai|Kshanghai]] ([[User talk:Kshanghai|talk]]) 08:29, 17 October 2017 (UTC)

== Entry Anastasia Huppmann ==

She is, in fact, a notable pianist, as her many awards show. You need to reconsider this by carefully reading her awards and repertoir, which includes Beethoven's Appassionnata (one of the most difficult works ever written for piano), and many of the most complicated works of the notable pianist Franz Liszt and Chopin. What other evidence do you want to accept that Ms Huppmann is a remarkable pianist indeed?  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Sina.khorasani|Sina.khorasani]] ([[User talk:Sina.khorasani#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Sina.khorasani|contribs]]) 10:22, 17 October 2017 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== RE: Proposed deletion of RadioBOSS ==

Hello Piotrus! The main purpose of article about "RadioBOSS" is to provide general information about the software to people. Provided that Wikipedia has lists of internet radio software, or radio automation software, why not list RadioBOSS there, as it's a perfect fit into those categories?

RadioBOSS is very well known in its own niche and it's been around for a long time, almost 15 years. I can provide more links to sites related to the topic where RadioBOSS is reviewed or discussed or job vacancies where "RadioBOSS knowledge" is a requirement, if needed.

As for categories, article about RadioBOSS fits the "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Internet_radio_software" or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Streaming_software category. Most of the software listed in those categories are referenced by their own web sites (I can give you examples if you like), so my article with some external sources, like reviews from software web sites, seems OK.

Thank you for your time.

== Piotr, We changed our topic of English Wikipedia article. ==

*Team member: Na Ji-eun, So-jeong Yeon (2 members)

Piotr, we changed our topic of English Wikipedia article. Our subject was the 'Spirited Garden'. But, when we write the article about this, we are afraid that this tourist attraction is managed by private agencies(it could be advertisement and promotion problem) although it is famous. So we selected other subject, 'oreum(오름)' It is a rising small defunct volcanoes in the Jeju island. There are some famous tourists. There is no article about 'oreum' so we'll create new one and we also confirmed some materials and journals about it. We hope to listen to your opinion and get some feedback.--[[Special:Contributions/175.223.44.17|175.223.44.17]] ([[User talk:175.223.44.17|talk]]) 08:30, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

== Dear Porf. Pioturs. ==

Hello prof Pioturs. 
This is byungdo jung who graduated hanyang few years ago. 
I am studying theology and philosophy in catholic univ of korea. 

I've learned precious, fantastic subjects in here. 
Sometime I saw that there is no online archive about my new major, though we already had thousands tons of paper book. 
So I plan to edit some korean wikipedia about theology and philosophy. 
It must be a kind of struggle, though, also become a devotional work as well. 
I will do my best in here and please help me when I need your advice. 

All the best. 
Byungdo Jung.

== X Raion, X District vs X district ==

"[[raion]]" is translated as "district", except for the rural ones in Ukraine. Where it is translated the articles about individual entities are named "X District" - except for [[South Ossetia-Alania]]. Also everywhere else it is X Type: [[Bochnia County]], [[Masovian Voivodeship]], [[Buenos Aires Province]], [[Moscow Oblast]]... 1 item out of 100000 not named with uppercase was proposed for renaming to keep the naming in enWP consistent https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Dzau_district&oldid=809879398 [[Special:Contributions/85.180.59.159|85.180.59.159]] ([[User talk:85.180.59.159|talk]]) 02:59, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
:Dear anon. This is interesting, but my talk page is not the right page to raise the issue.

::RE [[WP:SOFIXIT]] - [[WP:IPCANNOTFIXIT-BECAUSE-MOVE-DISSALLOWED-FOR-IP]]. I thought you are one of the few experts in naming of administrative territorial entities in different countries. The current system across the board is "X Type" not "X type". But the nobrainer was opposed at WP:RMT with a false claim "is usually not done on WP" - it is usually done so. Only exception is India. [[South Ossetia-Alania]] is not in [[India]]. Expert opinion needed. [[Special:Contributions/77.180.49.63|77.180.49.63]] ([[User talk:77.180.49.63|talk]]) 04:58, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

== Polish restaurant chains ==

Hi Piotruś,
Concerning the proposed deletion of [[Mr Hamburger]] and [[Berlin Döner Kebap]] I thought that instead of making separate articles I'll make a [[List of restaurant chains in Poland]] with short descriptions and statistics. I'll also do that for [[Da Grasso]] which I guess will also be deleted. I think that'll be a more pragmatic and centralised approach. Please don't delete the articles until Friday. I'll combine them into the article list today. Please tell me what you think. I should have done that beforehand instead of making small separate ones. I guess the Polish market for restaurants is too limited and too young to really provide notability to these arrticles I made. Apologies. I'll get back to doing History and geography articles instead. All the best. [[User:Arbustum|Arbustum]] ([[User talk:Arbustum|talk]]) 09:45, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

:I've copied the Da Grasso, Berlin Doner Kebap and Mr Hamburger articles. I'll create a more dynamic [[List of restaurant chains in Poland]] today. If you'd like to you can delete the aforementioned articles. Apologies. [[User:Arbustum|Arbustum]] ([[User talk:Arbustum|talk]]) 09:57, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
::There we go, this seems more uniform and concise: [[List of restaurant chains in Poland]]. All the best. [[User:Arbustum|Arbustum]] ([[User talk:Arbustum|talk]]) 12:23, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

== WikiCup 2018 ==

So the 2017 WikiCup has come to an end. Congratulations to the winner, to the other finalists and to all those who took part. 177 contestants signed up, more than usual, but not all of them submitted entries in the first round. Were editors attracted by the cash prizes offered for the first time this year, or were these irrelevant? Do the rules and scoring need changing for the 2018 WikiCup? If you have a view on these or other matters, why not join in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiCup/Scoring WikiCup discussion] about next year's contest?  {{User4|Sturmvogel 66}}, {{user4|Godot13}} and {{User4|Cwmhiraeth}}.

== Doom9 ==

Hi Piotrus, I see you poked the article [[Doom9]] for possible deletion based on notability. This is totally fair given the cites that were there. However, I believe Doom9 is notable, just was poorly cited, and I have added a few cites to try to address the issue. I will try to add some more in the near future.

On 22 November 2017, I advised you to change your signature to:

I should have escaped the pipe character and advised you to change your signature to:

: <code><nowiki><sub style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">[[User:Piotrus|Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus]]&amp;#124;[[User talk:Piotrus|<span style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;"> reply here</span>]]</sub></nowiki></code> → <sub style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">[[User:Piotrus|Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus]]&#124;[[User talk:Piotrus|<span style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;"> reply here</span>]]</sub>

It makes no difference when you invoke your signature with four tildes on a talk page, but it does make a difference if your signature is ever invoked in a template, because there, the native pipe character (|) will be interpreted as an argument separator of the template. So, please change your signature again. Sorry for the inconvenience. —[[User:Anomalocaris|Anomalocaris]] ([[User talk:Anomalocaris|talk]]) 07:48, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

It's a short article but I'd be loathe to lose it entirely due to it's significance in financial services in Australia. Could it perhaps be merged into [[ISO 8583]] with a redirect?

== deleted article ==

Hi Piotrus,
thanks to your action, my article regarding "Port VLAN ID" was deleted. Is there any chance to get a backup of it for my own blog? 
If it does not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines, I would like to put it on my own Blog as the search term "Port VLAN ID" gives over 87.000 search results on Google.

Did your action eliminated aggregated knowledge from the internet forever?
Or is there any chance to get it from the history?

Thanks,
Superwallah <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by an unknown user&#32; 04:07, December 1, 2017</span></small><!-- Template:Xsign -->

== 2017 Military Historian of the Year and Newcomer of the Year nominations and voting ==

As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history/Awards#"Military_historian_of_the_Year"|Military Historian of the Year]] and the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history/Awards#"Military_history_Newcomer_of_the_Year"|Military History Newcomer of the Year]]. The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators|co-ordinators]] invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history#Nominations_for_military_historian_of_the_year_for_2017_now_open!|here]] and [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Military_history#Nominations_for_military_history_newcomer_of_the_year_for_2017_now_open!|here]].

==[[User:Ekrud5/sandbox]]==
Sandboxes and educational drafts are '''''not''''' exempt from speedy deletion except on notability grounds, although they may be given more latitude. I've deleted several spam drafts already today.

There is no way that this article meets [[WP:NOTADVERTISING]].  There are at least 20 spam links, not counting the multiple links to the company's own pages and social media, and the interminable lists of sales points that haven't got as far as being spam linked.

Most of the text is unsourced, although that isn't a reason for speedy deletion, or sourced to the company's own sites, which didn't necessarily support the referenced text! The character list looks like a mix of copyright violation and [[WP:OR]]

Whether this student was given no advice on editing Wikipedia, was given incorrect advice, or chose to ignore any guidance, I do not know.

The student needs to 
*provide '''[[Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources|independent verifiable sources]]''' to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the [[Wikipedia:Notability|notability guidelines]]. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. References should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls
*write in a [[WP:NOTADVERTISING|non-promotional]] tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. 
*Not place ''any'' url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections. There should be no links to social media, nor should there be lists or spamlinks to sales sites
*Avoid copyright violations. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in [[WP:COPY|this policy]]. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state '''clearly and explicitly''' that the text is '''public domain'''. Simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.

If it  were not a student, I would have assumed such a spammy article involved a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]], but I'm happy to accept your assurances on that. Before attempting to write an article again, the student must make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that they can find [[Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources|independent third party sources]]. They must also read [[Wikipedia:Your first article|Your first article]].

I'm not prepared to restore the deleted text, it's far too promotional, although I might be able to copy the table into a new neutral version if that would help [[User:Jimfbleak|<b style="font-family:Lucida;color:red">Jimfbleak</b>]] - [[User talk:Jimfbleak|<span style="font-family:arial;color:green"><i>talk to me?</i></span>]] 16:18, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

I am told with equal confidence that I should (a) find a different source myself; (b) remove the text with the source; (c) remove the source but leave the text and (d) leave both and tag the source as {{tl|dubious}}. The most common view, by quite some margin, is that the text goes along with the unreliable source.

The article on his union is awful beyond description, and seems to have been done by a succession of illiterate editors. I will either do it over or try to get someone else to do it.

== Request for help ==

Hello once again, Piotrus. As you've most likely noticed I rewrote the [[Battle of Warsaw (1705)]] article a few days ago (mainly because of an unstable online source, that switched between being dead and alive, and with no clear citations) and the user ''Gog the Mild'' has helped me with the copy edits of it. I want to push the article to FAC, but with this being my first time, I've been suggested to find a mentor first. I thought of you, as the creator of the article and with knowledge about the subject. Or if you don't want to, or can't find time, maybe give me some advice on the road as you're experienced here. [[User:Imonoz|Imonoz]] ([[User talk:Imonoz|talk]]) 01:43, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

== Max Fleischer, Polish American ==

Dear Oli,

After wading through a lot of confusing and circular references, I hope I am reaching you.  While I greatly appreciated your extended clarifications on the political divisions of the regions of the present Poland, the statement that Max Fleischer was a Polish-American and was "born and raised in Poland" is inaccurate.  Also citing my book, THE ART AND INVENTIONS OF MAX FLEISCHER: AMERICAN ANIMATION PIONEER as the source of this claim is false.  This is obvious since the link going Page 7 clearly shows that I made the distinction of Krakow in 1883 being under the Austrian-Hungarian Empire.  

Max and his family never made any ethnic connections to Poland or being "Polish."  They identified themselves by nationality as being "Austrian," and ethnically as being "Jews."  At least four sources confirm these details.  They include Max's birth record in the Rabbinatsamt in Krakow, Immigration Registration Records, Census Records, and Max's Naturalization Papers from 1934.  In each case, the country of origin was stated as "Austria." These facts are supported by the family, with particular reference to Max's grand daughter, Virginia Kneitel-Mahoney, who has Max's Naturalization Papers.  These facts are also concurred by Mark Langer, formerly of Carlton University in Ottawa, Ontario Canada.

While I can appreciate the subtle differences resulting in changing political conditions and the dissolution of provinces and kingdoms of the time, my research shows that these regions were not formally incorporated as part of Poland until 1919, following World War I.  By that time, Max had already begun his career in the animation field.

To say that Max was "born and raised" in Poland is also misleading in this use of the phrase.  One can be born in one location and raised in another.  In this case, both Max and Charles were born in Austria, but were brought to The United States, specifically, New York City at the ages of four and five respectively. As was the case with many who emigrated to the U.S. as small children during this period, their formative years were clearly spent in The United States.  And their Citizenship and nationality was assumed under a condition of established residence, which was common at the time.  In this respect, Max was American, having been "raised" in that culture, and mastering the English Language.

Another point about the Polish issue is that Poles had their own language and dialects as you should very well know.  Max's parents originally spoke German, and quickly assimilated to American Culture and the English language.  The distinction between Polish Jews and non-Polish Jews in the regions of Galicia were more a matter of social status, or class.  Even though the residents were all essentially poor, there were distinctions even within this level.  While it might be reasoned that the Fleischers might have distanced themselves from some lower level of this "Peasant Class,"  they seemed to be consistent in their honesty about who they were.  For this reason, it does not seem credible that they would deny coming from a low class Polish background especially since there was no cultural connection to the Polish Culture in their history that is confirmed by the family.

Until the publishing of my book,  Max's original birth name was not known.  And while his parents were known as "William and Amalia (Amelia),"  my research reveals  the names of Aaron Wolf Fleischer and Malka Palaz.  Why they changed their names is unknown.  One might assume that they were escaping from something and assumed a "new identity."  But there is nothing known in William's history or known character to indicate that this would have been the reason.  Had he been trying to "escape" and "hide, he wouldn't have united with his brother Leon, reference in my book.  So with the temptation to read some sort of drama into this situation, there simply is no evidence to support it, which brings me to another point of consideration.

You suggest that William "may have spent some time in Vienna."  This is a broad generalization that is both vague as well as credible.  While it is certainly possible that William may have had clients that brought him to Vienna, there has never been any acknowledgement of this coming from the stories that the family has.  It is certainly possible that William may have "visited" Vienna, but to say that "he may have spent some time there" suggests that he took up residence.  To date, we have no proof of this being true, and the family does not have any information to confirm this.  Accordingly, there would be an interest in knowing what sources can confirm this as fact.

I might suggest that we consider tightening some of the additions about Poland especially since your addition seems a bit redundant and contradictory, especially when one of the opening sentences qualifies the time period of Krakow being then under Austria-Hungary.  It might meet mutual satisfaction to add the clarification of(now Poland)to lessen any confusion here.

Very sincerely yours,

Ray Pointer[[User:RayPointer|RayPointer]] ([[User talk:RayPointer|talk]]) 15:18, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

== Unintended Message to Oli via Piotrus ==

I'm glad that I am not the only one who finds the Wikipedia software unnecessarily difficult and confusing.  That aside, "shoe-string budgets" have nothing to do with a badly designed web site.  While I have issues with the Amazon software, at least it is  clearer in its messaging process by comparison.

Thanks for your understanding over this confusion.

Sincerely,

== Wiki Software ==

There is no disagreement that the Wikipedia web site and software is too confusing and time consuming to navigate or make simple responses.  One would think that with so many people with assumed understanding of how effective web sites are constructed, this would could be much better than it is.  Budget has NOTHING to do with this problem.  I have a web site, and I can certainly attest to operating on "shoestring budgets."  Yet, I have been selling DVDs and other products of interest on my web site for 20 years.  Not that I am soliciting, but I'd encourage you to visit inkwellimagesink.com and see if you find this site to be more user friendly. Wikipedia is really not user friendly.  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:RayPointer|RayPointer]] ([[User talk:RayPointer#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/RayPointer|contribs]]) 21:11, 17 January 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Re: Wiki web site/software ==

Hi!  

Satisfying me, "the boss" is only one issue.  There are MANY web site "experts", whether professional or "hobbyist" who seem quite qualified, and perhaps more qualified than whomever set up the Wiki web site and software.  The fact that there are no standards and ultimate Administrator is a big problem.  There is no guarantee of consistency and accuracy of Wikipedia entries if  the "committee" is involved with everything. How do we know that certain committee members are qualified to be Editors?  Based on some examples I've seen, some may not be. This is a prime example of the expression, "too many cooks spoil the broth."  

If might be more beneficial that the committee review entries that are posted instead of imposing text that does not match the level of writing, consistency in narrative, and accurate research. This is particularly important in cases where others have added text with bad grammar, confused context, and incorrect historical timelines.  And this has been the problem with some entries, with particular reference to the Max Fleischer over the past 10 years.  Then by suggestion from my publisher, I re-wrote it last year, and it remained in tact until it was tampered with in October.  And you have unwittingly been made privy to those issues due to a routing error of my response to the poster.

I am happy to pass these thoughts to Wikipedia provided they reach the key responsible people, not a committee.  It does make one wonder what sort of organization this is, especially since they are listed as "Wiki Media" in San Francisco.  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:RayPointer|RayPointer]] ([[User talk:RayPointer#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/RayPointer|contribs]]) 14:27, 19 January 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Pál Hermann ==

Hi Piotrus. 

I ask you for help because you helped me improve this wiki page considerably in the past. 

[[User:Kleuske|Kleuske]] for some reason keeps insisting to move English and Dutch  pages to Paul Hermann. As you say, too many cooks spoil the brothe.

My grandfather's used his birth name "Pál" for his music compositions, although he also used the westernized "Paul" when performing as a cellist. As all that is left of him today are his compositions, IMSLP and German/French/Hungarian wiki pages have accepted Pál, and I would like to undo Kleuske moving of the English and Dutch wiki pages to Paul, but she refuses (see her talk page). Also there was another composer Paul Hermann (1904-1970) active in Berlin, as is explained in all the Pál Hermann wiki pages explain. As cruel destiny will have it, this namesake of my grandfather was a Nazi composer. 

The sources of the name Pál Hermann are my grandfather's birthcertificate, and the numerous manuscripts of his music compositions as made accessible through http://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Hermann%2C_P%C3%A1l and also the recent scholarship in LA based Colburn School of Music in his name Pál Hermann as is the publicity cellist Clive Greensmith gives to Hermann's cello concerto. 

Could you help out? Many thanks and greetings from Italy, [[User:Pvangastel|Pvangastel]].  <!--Template:Undated--><small class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|undated]] comment added 09:53, 21 January 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

This has been done under [[WP:CSD#A3|section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the [[Wikipedia:Help desk|help]] or [[Wikipedia:Reference desk|reference]] desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see [[Wikipedia:Stub#Essential information about stubs|Wikipedia:Stub]] for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on [[Wikipedia:Notability|notable]] subjects and should provide references to [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources]] that [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verify]] their content. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Western values|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=Western+values|deleting administrator}}, or if you have already done so, you can place a request [[WP:RFUD|here]]. <!-- Template:Db-nocontent-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> [[User:Theroadislong|Theroadislong]] ([[User talk:Theroadislong|talk]]) 12:16, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

== Western values ==

Thank you for your comments on proposed article. I have now queried the deletion on wp:delete, revised the article as per comments and posted revised article on Draft:western values. Further comments would be appreciated on that talk page.[[User:Patnovak|Patnovak]] ([[User talk:Patnovak|talk]]) 17:29, 16 February 2018 (UTC) (Sorry, forgot to put the tildes)

Thank you for your intervention. I have made a "Submit an edit request" on the "View source page" of Western values. I have not yet submitted an Afc on the Drafts:Western value page. [[User:Patnovak|Patnovak]] ([[User talk:Patnovak|talk]]) 10:13, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

== [[Bryan Mark Rigg]] ==

Per [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bryan_Mark_Rigg&type=revision&diff=764018592&oldid=754594996&diffmode=source this string of edits] & edit summaries like "''the biography is old and contains information that is incorrect. I did not covert to Judaism. I only embraced my Jewish Roots. Also, the biography does not have current information. I have included this.''", it definetely seems like [[WP:COI|the subject of the article himself edited it]], contributing to the problem with length.

== Wikipedia training and globalization ==

I am User:Lkskwlkr aka. Dale Gary Forsyth and I have completed the Wikipedia training for globalization and write this entry to prove it. We all would benefit further if there was a consistent means of conscious communication that I recognised and understood. Hope my efforts are helping. :-)
