You don't need to add Category:Peace treaties to articles tagged with Category:Polish peace treaties, there is a rule that only the most specific categories should be used unless there is some compelling reason to use the more general one's as well - so you may want to revert yourself. Also, try using edit summaries - so we can know what you did without having to check your contribs (I know your edits are good, but sometimes I would like to know what you did - to satifify my curiosity - without having to click through history).

The "Oda von Haldensleben" article needs to be deleted, and the "Ote" article (which is the more complete one) needs to be renamed "Oda von Haldensleben" (if the queen indeed usually goes by "Oda," rather than "Ote," in Polish). Do you know how such operations are done?

When you tag files as CFD, could you please also list them on Wikipedia:Categories_for_deletion? Without the listing, they are not fully submitted for deletion, and the process does not go anywhere, leaving the categories to just sit there in a limbo. - TexasAndroid
I've been thinking :) that this category may actually be useful. Just as we have divided People's Republic of Poland from History of Poland (1945-1989), so their categories may be different. PRP category could be used for things that are specific to the country as the institution. I came up with this idea when I thought that articles like Administrative division of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and Offices_in_the_Polish-Lithuanian_Commonwealth may benefit from Category:Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, instead of just being in Category:History of Poland (1569–1795).

What do you think about User:Halibutt's moving of the Wielkopolska Uprisings to "Greater Poland Uprisings"? It jars on me.
I agree with you: we should use English equivalents for general Polish terms, e.g. "chancellor" for kanclerz. On the other hand, I'm opposed to "translating" proper names, including geographic ones such as Wielkopolska. (The only translation of a Polish geographic name that I'm still tolerating, for now, is of Warszawa as "Warsaw," simply as acknowledgment of the world's inertia.) logologist|Talk 09:54, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Hello. I'm deleting the redirect from Battle of Raszyn (1920) to Battle of Radzymin (1920). It seems that Raszyn and Radzymin are different places in Poland, aren't they? My question is: was there at all a battle at Raszyn in 1920? What links here shows a lot of articles linking to Battle of Raszyn (1920); should these all be changed to Battle of Radzymin (1920)? I have to say, I didn't even know that there was a war between Russia and Poland then, so I have no idea how to proceed. Cheers, Jitse Niesen (talk) 23:27, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. Frankly speaking I don't think it's a good idea, as it's easier to add one category for the entire campaign than several categories separately, but if you're going to take care of all the articles, then it's fine with me. //Halibutt 17:56, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Hello Appleseed! I noticed you were removing the categorization spelling of various localities in Poland (ie "Category:Towns in Poland|Sroda Slaska" to just "Category:Towns in Poland"). In case you are unaware, Wikipedia's current categorization spelling system puts diacritics at the end of the alphabet, which means that by default Środa Śląska would be categorized not under "S", but in "Ś" which comes after "Z" (see [5]). Categorizing the article as "|Sroda Slaska" alphabetizes it as an "S" article, while the proper spelling with diacritics is listed at Category:Towns in Poland. Olessi 23:07, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Hello Appleseed! Thanks for the clarification and correction. You already had Treaty of Kraków/Krakow redirecting there, so I'll add a mention of it to the article at the relevant space.

Hi. Thank you for asking. Shortly: my ear says that "the Dabrowski Mazurka" (definite article should not be in article name, but always when in sentences, "the" should be included) would be best in, how do I say that, "sounding like English". A subjective feeling, I admit. Advantage: you avoid that lousy genitive 's, which may be shitty to handle.
What is important in determining what name to use in English Wikipedia, is: what actually is used in English literature, texts and other encyclopedias. As far as I know, there is no other rule here for naming national anthems than the general rule "use English, use common name as used by English-speakers". Naming of royals and nobles certainly does not come into this (even if Dabrowski were a prince or something, it just is not used commonly in this name). When making a google check, I somehow found that any version with that diacritical a is much rarer than analogous version without diacritic. So that's common English usage. Suits me well, because I oppose unnecessary, and also too difficult, diacritics. But if some word is overwhelmingly used in English with diacritics, I would swallow my opposition. That is not the case with this - clearly, variants without diacritic are common. If you have respectable works of reference in English to use (such as Encyclopedia Britannica and others...) you may wish to cnsult what is used there.
Mazurka certainly is the term used for that part in english. And between "Dabrowski's.." and "Dabrowski Mazurka", somehow my google finds speak for the simpler one, without genitive. Shilkanni 11:04, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

English "Metropolis Katowice" is translate = polish "Metropolia Katowice". Metropolia Katowice or Górnośląski Związek Metropolitalny is name city un. LUCPOL 10:10, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
It does not have a good translation maily because it is not a popular word in everyday language. It is more or less exclusively used for the COA. But it does not mean "a chase" or "a pursuit." It describer a person, "a chaser," "a pursuer," "a charging knight." I personally prefer "charging knight" because it is descriptive: vytis means a knight, but not a regular knight - one in action. I don't think "chaser" makes much sense in English, I don't think this word is udes to describe a knight, a solder. "Pursuer," I think, is somewhat better, but I don't think it conveys the full meaning. But that's only my personal preferences. Renata 22:07, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Hello. Do you think it might be appropriate to put some note between the names of Bierut and Jaruzelski to note that they were not direct successors?

Appleseed, I agree that the template should be kept simple, which is why I only put two words in there, plus a link to the Council of State.

You're not the first one to ask me that question. No wonder, generations of translators have mistaken British "Squadron" for Polish "Szwadron". While originally the meaning was the same (a sq. of cavalry), when it comes to air forces the terms become false cognates. In short, Polish and British air force traditions are incompatible. In Poland the structure was modelled after the structure of other branches of the military, and after the French air forces. Hence we have Air Regiments (pułk lotniczy) composed of roughly four Squadrons (Dywizjon), each composed of two Escadrilles (10 planes each). So, in short, the Polish inter-war air regiment had roughly 80 planes (in reality usually around 100).
In UK however, the system is completely different: a direct equivalent of the Air Regiment is a Group, which is composed of Wings (equivalent to Polish Dywizjon in command structure, but not in number of planes), which are further divided onto Squadrons (12-15 planes, that is somewhere between a Polish Dywizjon and Eskadra; roughly equivalent to the latter in terms of command structure). And now comes the toughest part: the British Squadrons are usually composed of two Flights, that are usually translated to Polish as eskadra, while Polish eskadras are translated to English as escadrilles (pretty much like their French counterparts of 20 planes each).
Did I answer your question, or was I lost somewhere along the road? :) //Halibutt 16:54, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
Dear Appleseed:
Let me explain better. If you put the subcategories in alphabetical order, as they are right now, you have three of them appearing in the first page altogether and the other two ones separated , one in the second page and the last in the third page. This two subcategories are quite hidden between a large number of names. In this particular -Category:Polish nobility- may be useful to have the subcategories just as –Category:Polish nobility|(blank space)- and not as –Category:Polish nobility|Royalty- . Then will be all of them in the firs page easily findable altogether.
It is just an idea. Best regards Gustavo Szwedowski de Korwin 03:36, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Appleseed, I saw you indulge in disruptive activities, such as move warring. You failed to present any evidence that Expedition to Kiev is better than Polish Expedition to Kiev. There were numerous expeditions against and sieges of Kiev in history. Your pet title does not make it clear which "expedition to Kiev" it was.

All in all, I believe that the Polish wiki, while at times interesting and helpful, in many respects presents all the worse things in all wikipedias.
Besides, of course there are personal reasons as well. For instance, being a journalist myself I don't really have to feed my scribbling with Polish wiki (scribbling is an addiction), I have my jobs to do it instead. //Halibutt 21:55, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for your message; I do prefer this kind of dispute resolution above a public display of throwing punches. Now I think both you and Piotrus did not read my original statement correctly. I said there were nationalist feelings on *both* sides, but that in that particular time there had been a lot of either pro-Polish and/or anti-Russian edits (as I already mentioned there were a lot of categories created that identified Ingria as an independent country (which it never had been), and several other incidents as well). Piotrus called that unfounded, where he should have asked me for examples, which I would have given gladly. And because Piotrus is an admin, he should have known better than to respond in this way, especially with someone you have never met on talk pages before.
Now as for the threat by Piotrus: Piotrus has a way with words, but it is still a threat, because I have no doubt Piotrus would himself be the first to start the RfArb, or ask someone to do it for him. I'm sorry, I really can't read it any other way, especially not after his request that other admins reprimand me. In football, asking for a yellow card gets rewarded with a yellow card for the asking party, and for good reason. If other admins thought what I had written was wrong, they would have acted on their own accord; asking for other admins to reprimand another user when you haven't even talked to that user is a totally reprehensible action as far as I'm concerned. Piotrus in that moment failed to assume good faith on my part and I was (and still am) very much offended by Piotrus' actions. Errabee 17:12, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Template:Poland Labelled Map.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 21:30, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
You've been told before to desist from unilateral moving and now this spree again. This is an extremely counterproductive, especially since it created an artificial history to a redirect that is a strong candidate for the title of the contested article. How difficult is it to propose things at talk? Please do not engage into this activity. --Irpen 22:26, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
First, I did not intend to move the page unilaterally anyway and was intending to propose the move. If you know of any controversial unilateral moves made by me, feel free to raise them. Then, I am not saying that everyone who cares about dashes are orthography freaks. All I am saying is that I am not and I do not, as long as the sign remains a dash and not a slash or and =. You are aware that the name that is there only because Piotrus picked it at some point is now hotly contested. That is enough to not do any article moves without proposing at its talk. You chose instead to move and create a history to the redirect that was not there. I am asking you not to move the contested article next time and this is not an unreasonable request. --Irpen 04:20, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
There is harm in redirect history. While the imposing one's opinion on the community by forcibly moving article is prohibited, a formal WP:RM voting is not required for moves either. If all concerned and involved parties informally discuss the issue at talk and come to an agreement, such agreement is much more valuable than the raw results of WP:RM vote that may be affected by stray voters with no clue of the issue who give their little informed votes. However, now the existence of the history necessiates WP:RM. So, yes, it matters.
As for the phrase you asked to explain, the matter is that the name is anachronistic since the term Muscovy is applied in the article to the time 100 years past the Grand Duchy of Moscow. While some sources repeat that mistake, the majority of them use the term Russia. Perhaps, Polish sources differ and that's why Piotrus picked the name. Also, perhaps, Piotrus is not aware of the global POV implications of misaplying the M word anachronistically. I am not saying that all authors who use the term for the 17th century are doing so for the POV reasons but the term is wrong at best and offensive at worst. --Irpen 05:31, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
As for Muscovy, the discussion does take place at the article's talk. As for notifying about the moves no matter how minor ones, well, I would say that even though the mere typo correction in the title may be trivial enough to not require the warning, if the move is followed by salting the earth action, it is not a minor one. In that move in question, Ghirla did not salt the earth. --Irpen 21:10, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
I complain not because you fixed dbl redirects but because you salted the earth. As for Ghirla, the article was forced into move protection by a move war at which several parties took part. That the war could possibly have happened is the proof that he did not salt the earth. As for your not "winning", this is not about winning. This is about reaching consensus, when possible, or at least not aggravating further the situation where the discussion is already heated. --Irpen 21:25, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
I am not to comment on the events that took place after your and Ghirla move war. Suffice is to say, that your taking it to PAIN and the drama that followed was the final straw that caused the deletion of that disgusting board. Piotrus' activity at WP:RFI helped me convince the majority to delete that one as well. This shortcut you both use to go various places to seek for blocks of your content opponents is beyond pale and I said everything there is to it at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Requests for investigation and Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Personal attack intervention noticeboard. More was said here, here, here, here and perhaps 4 or 5 other places.
Fixing a double redirect is always salting the earth, true. It's playing with moves of the hotly contested titles is what makes a difference. Fix all the redirects you want where it does not matter. Do not move articles when the discussion takes place at its talk until such discussion concludes. Your salting the earth does not allow to move it back and continue from where we where. That is what makes a difference. --Irpen 08:14, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Removing the category Illuminated manuscripts was not a good idea. of course not all psalters are illuminated, but enough are, and I think all of the ones that have articles, or are likely to get articles. As I'm sure you know, Psalters are a very important category of illuminated manuscript. Please think more carefully before making this sort of change. Johnbod 01:50, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

UNESCO World Heritage Centre Tentative Lists [13] contains a spelling mistake in the name of Dunajec river. Would you care to find out how to correct it there? I made the correction already at the List_of_World_Heritage_Sites_in_Poland.
The spelling mistake is repeated again in the title of the UNESCO Tentative Lists submission, prepared by Michal Sokolowski [14]. However, if you look at his copy you'll find that the name Dunajec is spelled there properly. UNESCO World Heritage [15] should be notified about that. Thanks. --

Thanks for the comments. To make these maps, I used the blank maps available at http://www.ieg-maps.uni-mainz.de. Taking a high-resolution no-text PDF files available there, I converted it to a very-high resolution PNG image using GIMP. Then I imported this PNG image into Inkscape and converted it to SVG format. You need a very high-resolution PNG image in order for Inkscape to identify the border divisions correctly. - 52 Pickup 19:38, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Nice of you to give Novickas your "own" advice (see:User talk:Dr. Dan : Request - 02.21.07), approximately eleven days after she asked me a question regarding her family's health situation. From personal experience and training, I know that the medical profession in Poland is much more timely in their responses in crisis intervention than your own "kibbitzing" demonstrates. And for your own edification and peace of mind, I responded to Novickas, privately and immediately, right after she wrote me. In the future, please give such advice like the kind that you gave her, at the appropriate talk page, not on mine. But it's comforting to know my talk page is under your "radar".

I noticed you do most of the maintenance on List of World Heritage Sites in Poland. I have a couple of questions for you. First, on February 13, 2007, you indicated in your edit summary that you'd like to have an article written on Zamość Old Town (nominated as World Heritage Site in 1992). However, if you look at the history of Zamość article you'll see that on February 17, 2007, User:Joey80 added ((Infobox World Heritage Site)) there, with all applicable data. It is very unlikely that a separate article will ever be written under such circumstances. I’d like to know if you believe that a separate article should still be written regardless of its repetitious nature. If not, you might want to consider removing the red link from the list.
The same can be said about Toruń Old Town (1997). If you look at the history of Toruń article you'll see that User:Joey80 added yet another ((Infobox World Heritage Site)) there on 17 February 2007. I'm afraid there's no hope for a new article with content already well explained somewhere else. --Poeticbent talk 22:27, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I’m afraid you might have misunderstood my intentions. The heritage infoboxes are just the tip of an iceberg. In fact the two articles I mentioned have their UNESCO status as the main focus - which cannot be helped. Personally, I don’t like the look of any of those infoboxes and I wouldn’t want them around if it was up to me. However, my only suggestion to you was to remove the two red links. --Poeticbent talk 03:07, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Dear friends:
If you have some extra time, I would appreciate if you can take a look to Category:Coats of arms of clans of Poland and Category:Polish nobility coats of arms images, mainly the Talk pages.
There is an Italian wikipedian, who knows nothing about Polish history and Polish szlachta and he is rearranging the categories in Category:Coats of arms of Poland
In commons he is User:G.dallorto
My point of view may have some mistakes but I would thank you very much your thought and your discussion on this issue.
As today I got few time I am sending this same message to:
If you know somebody else interested in Polish heraldry and Polish szlachta, please invite him to join this Discussion.

Dear Appleseed:
I would like to rearrange the categories concerning coats of arms of Poland similar to the commons Coats of arms of Poland.
As you know well, "Polish coats of arms" in this context, really means "Polish nobility coats of arms" or "Polish clans coat of arms" or Category:Coats of arms of families of Poland, as wish the commons naming criteria, so is linked with Kategoria:Herby szlacheckie and the {commonscat|Coats of arms of families of Poland} do match.
Actually ALL the articles in this category refers to "Polish clans coat of arms" and not to "civic" (województwo, powiat, gmina, miasto, wieś, uniwersytetów, kościoła, wojskowa and so on) symbols or coats of arms.
I would like to create a Category:Polish coats of arms or something like this to include the “civic and other” ones in it.
Certainly, we will be in touch. Best regards my friend

For our freedom and yours Welcome to our first issue of WikiProject Poland newsletter, the Monitor (named after the first Polish newspaper). Our Project has been operational since 1 June, 2005, and also serves as the Poland-related Wikipedia notice board. I highly recommend watchlisting the Wikipedia:WikiProject Poland page, so you can be aware of the ongoing discussions. We hope you will join us in them, if you haven't done so already! Unlike many other WikiProjects, we are quite active; in this year alone about 40 threads have been started on our discussion page, and we do a pretty good job at answering all issues raised. In addition to a lively encyclopedic, Poland-related, English-language discussion forum, we have numerous useful tools that can be of use to you - and that you could help us maintain and develop:
This is not all; on our page you can find a list of useful templates (including userboxes), awards and other tools! With all that said, how about you join our discussions at WT:POLAND? Surely, there must be something you could help others with, or perhaps you are in need of assistance yourself?

WikiProject Poland Newsletter • January 2014 • Issue II
For our freedom and yours Welcome to the second issue of WikiProject Poland newsletter, the Monitor (named after the first Polish newspaper). Our Project has been operational since 1 June, 2005, and also serves as the Poland-related Wikipedia notice board. I highly recommend watchlisting the Wikipedia:WikiProject Poland page, so you can be aware of the ongoing discussions. We hope you will join us in them, if you haven't done so already! Unlike many other WikiProjects, we are quite active; we get close to a hundred discussion threads each year and we do a pretty good job at answering all issues raised. Last year we were featured in the Signpost, and our interviewer was amazed at our activity. In the end, however, even as active as we are, we are just a tiny group - you can easily become one of our core members! In addition to a lively encyclopedic, Poland-related, English-language discussion forum, we have numerous useful tools that can be of use to you - and that you could help us maintain and develop:
This is not all; on our page you can find a list of useful templates (including userboxes), awards and other tools!
It took me three years to finish this issue. Feel free to help out getting the next one before 2017 by being more active in WikiProject management :) You have received this newsletter because you are listed as a member at WikiProject Poland. |
Hi Appleseed! As a Steward I'm involved in the upcoming unification of all accounts organized by the Wikimedia Foundation (see m:Single User Login finalisation announcement). By looking at your account, I realized that you don't have a global account yet. In order to secure your name, I recommend you to create such account on your own by submitting your password on Special:MergeAccount and unifying your local accounts. If you have any problems with doing that or further questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Cheers, —DerHexer (Talk) 10:19, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:WSE logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 03:03, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:09, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
