My apologies again about removing the etymology text (see the talk page). That was not my intention and I don't have any problem with what you added, nor was I intending to remove it. Also from your comments on the Croats talk page it seems you have some concerns about other parts of the article and the accuracy/appropriateness of what is included. There are currently two other Wikipedians in a dispute about certain parts of the article. If you would like to weigh in on the mediation proceedings that would be welcomed here.

Thanks for adding new info to the List of Dacian plant names. Could you also please add the source(s) for those claims? As you might already know, all information in the articles must be verifiable. Cheers. — AdiJapan ☎ 09:54, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

It seems that you have contributed in articles related to Albanian language. But in the last edited version you have removed a reference. Can you please explain why? Regards Aigest (talk) 20:30, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
It's a pitty because the page do need all possible contributions. Hope you change your mind. Bests Aigest (talk) 06:50, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
If you are still interested here [1] related to Albanian-Illyrian-Latin-Greek connections from Norbert Jokl. I am also preparing an article for the Greek loans in Albanian. Regards Aigest (talk) 12:12, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
Please discuss your sources of informaton for the Types section you created in the Legal instrument article. I have deleted this section pending suitable sources. --Jc3s5h (talk) 13:37, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi FlibJib, you may not remember but in late 2007 you added a lot of data & etymologies to the Illyrian languages article. Most of it is still there,and I am working on tidying it up. Do you remember what source you used for your etymologies there, including the etymology of an Illyrian name, Scenobardos? Alex (talk) 03:01, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
"Feudalism is a decentralized sociopolitical structure in which a weak monarchy attempts to control the lands of the realm through reciprocal agreements with regional leaders." That sounds lovely, but what is your source for this definition? Fences&Windows 18:08, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

I noticed your recent additons to the article Proto-Germanic regarding Celtic loans into Germanic. It would be appreciated if you would also provide sourcing for these in the way of a reliable source, as well as any relevant discussion on them, perhaps in footnote format.

Hello. Just noticed that you changed a whole lot of things in History of Latin. I appreciate you taking the time to work on and help clean up this rather technical page.
However, I'm not convinced that all of your changes are for the better; some of them seem to make things worse. Also, some of them are stylistic, and generally Wikipedia does not favor changing the existing style of a page without discussion and agreement. So I'm wondering if you can justify why you changed them. Some issues in particular:
An example with many issues:
Old:
PIE *bher- "to carry" > ferō (cf. Greek pherō, English bear < Old English beran, Vedic Sanskrit bhárati)
New:
PIE *bʰére "carry" > ferō (cf. Old Irish beirim "I bear", English bear, Sanskrit bhárati)
Another example:
Old:
New:

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.
