Maps of Bosnia

Hi,

user:Dado has created some new Bosnia locator maps, but without entities marked (except badly visible inter-entity line). I think this is a bad idea, so I created my own maps, with separate colors for each entity (we have that already, but those maps are in low resolution and small).

I couldn't reach a compromise with Dado, and I believe we need third opinion.

Please, see:

Image talk:BHMunicipalities.png (talk page of Dado's map)

Could you please find some spare time to comment this. --Ante Perkovic 23:08, 8 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Good edit in Ante Starčević article

That was a good edit in the Ante Starčević, removing the uncited POV and strangely-worded text. If your edit is reverted, I suggest leaving a vandalism warning on the person's talk page. As I'm sure you've noticed, there are a few people (or one person using sock puppets) who have a severe bias in articles related to Croatian history, and almost no grasp of basic English grammar. If they (or he) continue their pattern of destructive edits, they (or he) should be reported to Wikipedia administration, because they are clearly not following Wikipedia guidelines. I have requested an IP check to see if they are posting from the same city.Spylab 14:37, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mikalja

Zmaj, do not push idea that he is Croat, because you will again give them arguments. He is from K. of Naples, he is of Croatian origin, but he described himself as Slavic speaking Italian. All other is speculation, just like G.G. and G.O. are doing all the time. Do not be exclusive, he is both. BR, --Plantago 13:40, 30 June 2007 (UTC) Will add that sentence.

Re:

Thanks for the thought. I never realized that there could be a link between Rimbaud and Aivazovsky. If I come accross one, I'll let you know. I'm very much interested in European history and lately I've been into checking out the former Yugoslavia, hence my involvement in articles regarding Croatia, Serbia, Macedonia, and the SFRY.

I hope that all of the Western Balkans become part of EU - and it looks like Croatia might be second after Slovenia. All the best, Aivazovsky 14:53, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that, I usually write pretty good English (if I do say so myself), but I have a couple of "trademark" mistakes I just can't seem to shake, even though I am quite aware of them :).

János Vitéz

I noticed that you recently moved an article, János Vitéz, to János Vitéz (poem), to make room for an article on an individual by the name of János Vitéz. I'm not certain this is the best course of action. While the poem is indeed a work of fiction, and the bishop was indeed a real person, the poem is much, much more famous; take a look at Google results [2]. Though the third hit is for the bishop, the first two and all the rest are the poem/musical/film adaptations. Shouldn't maybe [[[János Vitéz]] direct to the poem and there be another article, like János Vitéz (bishop) or the like for the clergyman? Any comments would be appreciated! Korossyl 12:10, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe popular culture shouldn't be the judge of a person's importance. It's only natural that a work of fiction that has been adapted into a film and a musical should get more Google hits than a Renaissance archbishop who was the second most influential man in Hungary in his time. I think we should ask an experienced administrator for a third opinion. Is that OK with you? --Zmaj 12:42, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely! Have one in mind?

János Vitéz is a bit more than just a work of fiction, though; it's the work of one of Hungary's greatest poets (if not THE greatest), and became a part of Hungarian culture long before even the 20th century. I don't mean to lessen the achievements of János Vitéz the man; I'd never heard of him until your article (thanks!!). But in terms of long-term influence on the nation, I'd argue that the poem has had more, and that a large majority of people typing János Vitéz into Wiki will be looking for the poem.

So, I look forward to any suggestions. Thanks for writing that article, though! Korossyl 00:53, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've checked WP:NAME. It says: "Names of Wikipedia articles should be optimized for readers over editors; and for a general audience over specialists." So I guess you're right; the more popular name should have precedence. I'll change the links to point to the poem again and rename the man into János Vitéz (archbishop). Keep up the good work! --Zmaj 07:30, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

NOTE: I first need someone to delete the page János Vitéz. I asked an admin to do it. Then I'll change everything else. --Zmaj 10:30, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Finished. --Zmaj 23:00, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much! And keep up the great work!! Korossyl 13:48, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I read the discussion. I agree with Duja and others who object to the category on the grounds of WP:OCAT.

History of Croatia

You're a bit sensetive on this issue arn't you? I was only trying to improve the article you know. Atleast make it clearer; I was going by what most editors do, most take every opportunity to expose certain things and blame the other party. About the Bleiburg numbers, it doesn't bother me a great deal that they are not displayed there you know. Evlekis 15:23, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely no hard feelings Zmaj. Thank you too for your honesty. May I just clear one small thing: if you look at the history of that page we edited, it wasn't I who wrote the "excuse for the action". Without looking at it, my guess is that the paragraph ended at the Bleiburg massacre; then maybe some pro-partizan later added "...for such and such a reason", and then maybe a non-sympathiser of some kind added "so-called" before the reasoning. Now I just looked at it as it stood. The term "so-called" is often inadequate for a number of reasons, so I thought I'd change that small part to, "said by the Partizans to be for..." - and the rest was already placed. So, with this information already present, I felt it necessary to develop the opening and mention a number, which you rightly say, is heavily disputed; I only gave the lowest number - you yourself know how high that number can be, but you're also correct in that the whole section was heading way-off topic. The History of Croatia is about Croatia's territory/previous territories. That is why I did not revert back. Please forgive me if you feel that my recent edits on Croatian based articles look as though they are opening old wounds, that really is not my aim. I suppose all of us seasoned editors spend our time POV-hunting sometimes, and this we do everywhere, not just on specific topics. Anyhow, thanks for not fully reverting me; of course, some of my edits are simply standardising the grammar. I think you've done quite well so I am happy to leave that page as it is. Thanks. Evlekis 02:00, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My user page! Oh that's just a parody of the articles themselves, I joke a lot you see. Curiously enough, A,B and C was nobody in particular, and I made a joke that "ink" was a precious substance, rather like today's oil. You could say that I was only thinking of the collective incidents which have taken place throughout the world as we know it. To be honest, I wasn't thinking a great deal of the Balkans when I wrote that section: I thought a little about Iran in the 1930s, when the "international community" removed a democraticly elected government and replaced them with the Shah; he and his son ruled for 50 years, they supressed opposition until 1979 when the nation deposed the regime, in come the Ayatollahs - with their strict Sharia system - but atleast there is some form of democracy (choosing head of government), but the country has fallen foul to the "internatiuonal community" etc. Then you look at places across Africa (Sudan, Ethiopia, Sierra Leone), maybe Haïti across the Atlantic, South American countries etc. and let's not forget the middle-east (namely Israel and its activities) and that inspires this picture I get of how the world is, especially with America's attititude to each case. But if you want a classic example in the Balkans: take the Albanians; well their clerics make no secret of the fact that they believe in a unified Albania, and these architects originate from every corner of Albanian settlement; its republic, the former Yugoslavia and Greece (only the Italian-Albanians are currently outside this sphere). In addition, there is their diaspora all over the developed world. Now in Kosovo, they were viewed as innocent civilians subjected to atrocity from a president unpopular among the "international community". In come the big countries, out go the old authorities. Then comes the spread, firstly in Serbia outside Kosovo, but only this time, the old regime has fallen and been replaced with a more agreeable administration; so the events attract less attention. Then to Macedonia, where they did attract international attention. Macedonia in 2001 reached the stage that Kosovo was at in maybe 1996, only with world attention. But the news networks and their governments were labelling the very same fighters with the very same intentions "terrorists". It's a shame Milosevic went, because then Zekir Zekiri (fictional name) could have stood on one side of the frontier and said, "now I am a freedom fighter", and stepping over the other side he could have said "now I am a terrorist, it is not what I fight for, it is whom I fight against!", and indeed, our Macedonian government's tongues have been so far up the American's rectums, they had to call the fire-brigade to get them out! My very own relatives took part in anti-Albanian atrocities in Macedonia, perhaps they were low-key, but it's a collection of these low-key occurences which paint the bigger picture. Anyhow Zmaj, this is not for the encyclopaedia, it is just my own experiences with international affairs.

So just going back briefly to the Yugoslavs section: I suppose it is difficult to avoid conjecture here. The entire page on Yugoslavs is based on that; if we remove personal research, we are left with a skeleton paragraph, and outsiders will be puzzled "how can someone be Yugoslav?" But don't worry about what you've removed, it wasn't essential: if you want to put Yugoslav, you can wikify it so readers can consult the page and do what they want there. Anyhow. Pozdrav. Evlekis 14:41, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A note about speculations

I agree, but it is as legitamate to speculate that those Yugoslavs might be Croats. It is extremely meaningless to write two contradicting speculations. There is nothing that indicates Yugoslavs are more likely to be Serbs than Croats. It gives the reader that incorrect impression. As far as I'm concerned you may include the information, but only if it says that they might have been Croats as well. I believe the whole thing is not necessary as it does not say anything, so I removed it. It also may be well to include the naked fact that there were 106,041 Yugoslavs according to the census, and not add any speculation afterwards. DIREKTOR 20:52, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pavle Kalinić and Nenad Ivanković

Nice work on both of these, but as biographies of living people, they need sources. Haven't tagged them as such, but someone will, so you might consider adding sources before the articles get deleted. GregorB (talk) 09:19, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Nenad Ivanković

The article Nenad Ivanković has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Zmaj. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Zmaj~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

ArbCom elections are now open!

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.

Proposed deletion of File:Divkovic - Besjede.jpg

The file File:Divkovic - Besjede.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unused, low-res, no obvious use

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:01, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
