Hi ! Thnak you for your support. About your objections could you be more specific so I could work on those ?Amir85 06:14, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
- no no ! It wasn't problematic at all, all I'm saying is regarding to your comment "2) add a section on geography and administrative division" you mean I should add a geographical subsection or what ? All the best. Amir85 18:25, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Hello
You asked my about my numbers on my page about Poles who DIED fighting WITH the Soviets during ww2, after the Soviets hade kicked out the nazies in 1944. If you have a source that says 30 thousand who died and I have have a source that syas 24 thousand it dosent mean that any of them are right or wrong, 6 thousand here 6 thousand there ment nothing to Stalin so we will never know the real number of Poles who died fighting with the Svoiets after the country got liberated. (Deng 14:13, 16 March 2006 (UTC))
I responded to your question about "Marszałek sejmu" on the article's discussion page.
I also previously left suggestions regarding titles for the "Warsaw Uprising" articles, I think, at Appleseed's discussion page (or perhaps in an email to him). logologist|Talk 17:19, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

Can you move Bombing of Wieluń in World War II to Bombing of Wieluń (it won't let me do it)? I'm not aware of any other time when the town was bombed. Appleseed (Talk) 21:18, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
Article listed for deletion
Hi,
I noticed from the Inclusionist page on Wikimedia that you're an article inclusionist and that you're against censorship, so I was wondering if you would be able to do me a huge favor and possibly vote here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of ethnic slurs. I've been working on the article for months, and now they want to delete it. If you could, I would be greatly in your debt.
Best wishes,

Ostatnio znów przeglądałem mój zbiór sieciowych varsavianów i na jednej ze stron (bodaj tej - polecam) znalazłem coś nowego: Warschau- Der letzte Blick. Niesamowita rzecz, niemieckie zdjęcia lotnicze mojego miasta, zrobione w ciągu ostatnich dni przed wybuchem powstania. Pół nocy spędziłem wgapiając się w ekran... Halibutt 04:24, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Zastanawiam się co z tym fantem zrobić. Z jednej strony facet wyraźnie naruszył licencję GFDL (i był tego świadom, bo zakleił moją informację o moich prawach), a do tego jego mapki są dość niskiej jakości (mówię głównie o stronie technicznej). Z drugiej strony na pewno lepsze to niż moje wiecznie niedokończone mapy, nad którymi wciąż nie mam czasu posiedzieć... Masz jakiś pomysł co z tym fantem zrobić? Halibutt 07:23, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
P.S. Poza moimi mapkami i kolorowymi zdjęciami z Time-Life, ów kolega wgrał także na commons coś z Twojej działki (Image:Herb Lis1.jpg i Image:Herb Gryf1.jpg. Widać jego podejście do kwestii praw autorskich jest jeszcze luźniejsze niż moje... Halibutt

BTW, if reading Cyrillic is a problem to you, you might want to install this extension. In a matter of seconds it is able to transliterate whole web pages from cyrillic to international transcryption. You can even create your own custom transcryption scheme that would look almost like Polish. It makes one's life in wikipedia much, much easier ;) Halibutt 17:51, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Proste tłumaczenie licencji z pl.wiki. Ale masz rację, wypadałoby lepiej toto opisać. Myślę, że znajdę odpowiednią ustawę i zrobię szablon podobny do {{PD-Poland}}. A co do PolandGov - czekam na odpowiedź od człowieka z którym rozmawiałem. Skarżył mi się że mają tam teraz straszny bajzel (nic dziwnego, wystarczy włączyć telewizor żeby wiedzieć dlaczego) i że termin oczekiwania na odpowiedź znacznie im się wydłużył. Zobaczymy, jeśli do połowy tygodnia nie odpowiedzą - będę dzwonił dalej. Jakby co - mam jeszcze w zanadrzu telefon do maherów od ADM i AAN w Warszawie, a nuż z nimi uda się dogadać. Halibutt 21:26, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
- A skoro o tym mowa, nie znasz kogoś, kto miałby dostęp do któregoś z serwisów prawniczych, w których takie ustawy można znaleźć? Chodzi mi zwłaszcza o ustawę z 1926 o prawie autorskiem i jej tekst ujednolicony z 1935... Halibutt 21:35, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
"Category:Polish rokosz's"
Appleseed points out correctly that "Category:Polish rokosz's," as written, is unsatisfactory. (Actually, it is ungrammatical — a possessive case instead of a plural.) Would you object to changing the category to read: "Category:Polish rebellions"? Within it, the various "rokoszes" would still appear under that name. logologist|Talk 22:03, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Dzięki za zgłębianie tematu "ustawy o prawie autorskiem" (przedreformowa polszczyzna zawsze mnie wzruszała :) ). Co do mojej strony - zaiste, były z nią problemy dopóki tego nie naprawiłem, ale teraz wszystko wygląda u mnie normalnie, i w Firefoksie i w IE...

Money
Ponieważ nie ma nigdzie wzmianki o tym, że Wikipedia ma pozwolenie od NBP (i autora projektu graficznego) na powielanie wizerunków banknotów i monet emitownych przez NBP, to znaczy, że wizeruki te łamią prawa autorskie i powinny być skasowane - zgodnie z regulaminem Wikipedii nie ma na nie tutaj miejsca (z polskiej Wiki już wyleciały wizerunki aktualnych polskich pieniędzy - może to się wielu niepodobać, lecz w kwestii praw autorskich na Wikipedii nie ma taryf ulgowych). Aotearoa from Poland 17:56, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
Mylisz się co do licencji do przedstawiania polskich pieniędzy - nie jest to fair use - proponuję Ci wczytać się w informację dotyczącą wykożystania wizerunków polskich banknotów i monet zamieszczoną na stronie Narodowego Banku Polskiego (tekst angielski z tej strony zamieściłem pod każdą ze spornych grafik) - NBP pozwala na wykożystywanie wizerunku pieniędzy przez niego edytowanych wyłącznie pod warunkiem uzyskania zgody od NBP i od autora grafiki danego banknotu czy monety. Bez tych dwóch zgód nie można publikować wizerunków polskich pieniędzy - i nie dotyczy to tylko Polski, ale również całego świata (były już w Polsce sprawy sądowe o wykożystywanie wizerunków pieniędzy bez zgody NBP i sądy zgadzały sie z tym, że jest to naruszenie praw autorskich - tu muszę nadmienić, że wizerunki pieniędzy nie są traktowane jako dokumenty urzędowe, które, zgodnie z polskim prawem autorskim, nie kożystają z ochrony tego prawa). Aotearoa from Poland 07:19, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Jeśli uważasz, że można na en-Wiki dawać grafiki bez zgody ich właściciela, to ja nie będę się kłócić - na en-Wiki rzadko edytuję, więc mogę się mylić co do tutejszych zasad (biorąc pod uwagę Twój dorobek powinieneś być ekspertem w tym zakresie). Tagi {{money}} poprzywracałem do wszystkich grafik już wczoraj, lecz pozostawiałem również {{no license}} - moim zdaniem warto do końca wyjaśnić tę kwestię. Jeśli będziesz (lub jesteś) na 100% pewien, że zamieszczanie tych grafik jest jak najbardziej w porządku, to skasuj moje uwagi - ja już czepiać się nie będę. Aotearoa from Poland 17:19, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
Artykuł 4 p. 2 prawa autorskiego jest bardzo często przytaczany w kontekście publikacji urzędowych. Problem polega na tym, że nie wszystko co urzędy publikują jest materiałem lub dokumentem urzędowym (na polskiej Wiki od czasu do czasu ktoś twierdzi, że praktycznie wszystko co wyjdzie z polskich urzędów podlega pod ten punkt prawa autorskiego, co jest nieprawdą). Podobnie ma się sprawa w kwesti wizerunków banknotów. Zgodnie z ustwą o NBP "Znakami pieniężnymi są banknoty (bilety NBP) i monety opiewające na złote i grosze" (art. 7 p.2). Tak więc zgodnie z interpretacją Mieciu K "znaki pieniężne" = "znaki" wymienione w art. 4 p. 2 ustwy o prawie autorskim. Idąc dalej tym tokiem myślenia dojdziemy do wniosku, że skoro "znaki pieniężne" = "znaki" i "znaki pieniężne" nie podlegają ochronie prawnej, to można je dowolnie powielać w dowolnej formie, co by oznaczało, że fałszowanie pieniędzy jest w Polsce legalne. Dochodzimy zatem do absurdu. Nie można uogólniać i przyjmować potoczne znaczenie słów tak jak jest wygodnie - w języku prawniczym każde słowo ma znaczenie i może znaczyć ono co innego niż jego potoczne rozumienie. Dlatego nie ma żadnej równości pomiędzy "znakami pieniężnymi" dokładnie zdefiniowanymi w ustawie o NBP, którymi to są banknoty i monety (a nie ich wizerunki!), a "znakami" z ustawy o prawie autorskim. Jakiś czas temu były informacje w prasie, że NBP procesował się o reklamy z wizerunkiem banknotów i sprawę wygrał - co jednak potwierdza przynależność praw do wizerunków pieniędzy NBP.

Ż.
- I've noted once that our good old Ż. has his ups and downs. Apparently the sun has entered yet another quadrant recently ([2]). //Halibutt
Piotrus, I am trying to get a clue of what's going on and I will see what I can do. Please note that too many parties started to abuse "fact" and "dubious" tags in order to use them as a weapon in edit wars. [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]
One of our common collaborators even used image copyright issues for that lately! See this, this and this.
I thought I would provoke some thoughts on whether we can come up with a set of informal rules that would define legitimate tagging from frivolous one at talk:Cossack but judging by your responses there, I didn't make a very convinsing case. Wel...
In the meanwhile, please take a look at the activity of the usual suspect here at the Polosh contribution to WW2 article. It is kind of upsetting. I spent at least 3 hours yesterday compiling the info from 3 sources and adding it to the article, referencing it and proofreading and copyediting to make text flow smooth and article encyclopedic. I expected Molobo to have some POV issues with my work as he does with the work of most any non-Polish editor, be it a German, Russian or Ukrainian. What was really annoying that the text I carefully crafted was butchered sloppily, producing the version with the sentences broken and disconnected, the whole paragraphs duplicated a huge number of typos and added references being lost. I restored the text's integrity twice today and it took me lots of time to spend on each restoration trying to integrated the info Molobo brought into the normal text flow. After the first time, the article was butchered again and now, that I restored it again, I expect it to be butchecred as soon as Molobo gets online. Please take a look at the article's history and talk. I am not even talking POV issues here. I am talking a disrespectfully sloppy editing over other people's careful work by the user who seems to be working on the complex article sitting on his left hand at the same time and istead of trying to make an article better, tries to "outrun" his opponents by making sure that as much POV material is quickly inserted as possible disregarding the article's stucture, references and other people's work.
Again, even before we get to POV issues, this rush patchwork is got to stop. If I get sufficiently discouraged to do actual work on the PL related articles (because with such reactions it is a waste of time) I will have to restrict my contribution to Polish topics to tagging the inappropraitenesses or the whole articles and explain at talk the reasons to make sure the tag is not removed until the problem is addressed by other editors. As you know yourself, tagging is way easier than trying to contribute to the article and takes much less time.
When that fellow "threatened" us with a leave at his RfC, I felt sorry that this was going to happen. With such a huge number of disruptions, I am starting to rethink this. --Irpen 01:47, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
- I am sorring Irpen but what you call butchering was simply restoring NPOV in place of Soviet propaganda descriptions which you filled the article on regular basis despite lenghty explanations as to why your photos are wronged or biased. Also I don't think adding false data on regular basis, again after several remarks about why it is wrong speaks well about your behaviour in the article.

Cuban coSSack
Hi Piotrus, our fellow contributor Kuban coSSack talking about dictatorial ruler Lukashenka and today's storming of the October square, when hundreds of special police arrested peaceful demonstrators, totally destoryed the camp, threw empty vodka bottles into the mess and videotaped that for Belarusan state television. Here's Kuban coSSack's comment about this police action and break-up of a peaceful protest, which took place at 3AM so that there would be no witnesses of their activity:

Apology (copied from my talk page)
Piotrus, what can I tell you? I apologize for editing your comment and antipicating your vote in this way. I have always been an extremely impatient person and, in my own defense, I can only suggest that I am still relatively new and this is the first time I have participated in this process of Featrured Artciles. I do not understand excatly how things work (as I indiciated in my comment on the talk page of the Featured Article page for Philosophy of mind. As to your point about more citations: I'm not sure I agree with your view that something close to every single line in an encyclopedia entry should be refercned and cited. But I will do the best I can to add some more in the manner of your own article. I DO sincerly apologize though and I understand your indignation. I was being selfish and impatiet in a way that is not appropriate to a collabortaive project. I thank you for briniging this to my attention. Sometimes,the only way to learn is by making mistakes.--Lacatosias 09:03, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
The point...
Though my behavior was inexcusable, I have to add that my real point was simply to suggest (for those who do not know me well) that when I say I will do something, I WILL DO IT. I did add those inline citations that you referred to. I'm now in the process of adding many, many more citations. If there is any fact left which is not yet referenced, it WILL BE referenced. Period. --Lacatosias 18:20, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

163x Progression Answer
You: Why did you moved to replace the Category:163x with a much more cumbersome and less user-friendly Category:1632-163x alternate history series? Not to mention that this cat does not exist yet? I think we should restore the old cat, it was perfectly fine as it was.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 17:47, 25 March 2006 (UTC) Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Fabartus" Reply:
- 163x=={ FanSpeak, WebHead, KidChat}/, not enclyclopediac and furthermore not proper English. Same thing with '-verse' suffixed 'Buzz=words', these are fine in common coloquialism on the web, but are something that should be included as 'notes' only near the bottom of an article; these things are taking to a higher encl. standard... Something like this should be the target in everyone's eyes.
- More to the point, 163x conveys absolutely zero information to the lay reader, the whole 'purpose' of categories'. This construct, albeit longer, is also a label that will draw attention to the articles while conveying the information 'span of years' + Alt. Hist. = Oh, that's interesting. '163x' conveys instead Oh, look! Some kid has been making a typo with an incomplete label. This enclopedia sure has it's problems.
- Which meaning do you want to convey? I gave my answer last night.
- And what's the cost that you're fussed about? An extra few (20? 30?) characters but one time per article page plus my one-time investment to change that last night. Hardly worth the trouble arguing over considering since the prior tag said zip to the outsider.
- If you guys had been using the talk pages correctly, this should have been aired out long ago, and someone else would have made my point. But the above's a flawed analysis too. When a new article is started, someone is just going to rip the guts out of the related ones preceding, modify what can be kept and start the new (e.g. 1633) material. He's not going to type categories, just copy them.
But until I stubbed that, you folks didn't even lift a finger to create a 1633 stub!!! Shocking! Totally mind boggling to me, considering how easy it would be to cc the old 1632 (novel) and paste it down!
- Moreover, I'm looking forwards... as the stuff in the pipeline hits the stores, and if I can get you guys to actually bring some work onto the table towards Standards Like This then this is a tag we can grow the 163x proiject with knowing a reader/user-noneditor can get useful information from the category.
- See talk: 1632 series; and esp. talk:1632 (novel) upshot is I spent whole night seeing everything here related to both Assiti and 163x; it's a wonder I can type as I'm not really awake. I need more than 3 hrs sleep at my age. I'll cc this to the series talk, as that is where it belogs like other series wide issues.
re: yours to My talk on Naming post...
Your message
Sorry not to have consulted before doing the move at FrankB's request. My feeling, though, is that the new title is more accurate and more informative (and I've seen many categories with titles as long or longer). --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 22:03, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
I see you've heard from Mel. He did move the cat but to a different name than asked, and I've already emailed a request with rationales as to why goto the title I used. That will clear up the red links. But he's correct, his is better english, and the matter is trivial - we'll just post the categories on the header of the projects page so people can scoop them off with cut N paste between two windows, hardly difficult. Even with Mel's less instinctive hypenated construct. In the meantime, my latest 'Project Proposal' post has examples of what I mean.
- Sorry if you find keyword emphasis annoying. I usually start on the left margin by indicating source, purpose, or both (Some thing explainatory like 'fab says/responds:') and end my post with some text conclusion or other sign off, again in the full left margin. (if you hadn't noticed it yet).
- I must say I'm impressed by your wikiCredentials... you should be organizing and pushing this project, not me! I'd appreciate it if we can exhange some emails. Mine is listed on the header of my talk.
- You didn't respond on the talk (Series & Temp Project) about my cite back to you on the categories name... lower down I said we could keep both.
- I've added a lot of project organization stuff (about to save) and a longish list of categories that should be in the projects articles.
- Have a more urgent query... How do you manage to be in my home state of Pennsylvania and in Poland at the same time?
I'm good, but not that clever! FrankB 01:03, 26 March 2006 (UTC) re:Talk: 1632 series cat cut...
- If you haven't you've done well at avoiding edit wars. Lucky you! Thought the temp cats were a good idea while we organized this thing. Have you experience putting together a project? That would be a big help.
- How'd the two short cat names strike you as a compromise? FrankB 17:09, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
re:*If you want to attract 163x-fans, check who edited the article in the past and inform them about your idea, if you want to seek category specialists, try Wikipedia talk:Category and such. I think that Category:1632 series is the best solution, no need for inclusion of '163x' (which I invented, as far as I know :>) or 'alt-hist' parts (just as Star Trek does not include Star Trek sci-fi or such).--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 17:18, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- For the moment, I'm assuming that they have things on watch. I'll 'spam' an alert once I know no one is paying attention, or I get to tired to see what needs done next. In the meantime, there's been lots of progress. I believe they're all cat'd properly now, whatever names we end up with, it'll be easy to hop back and forth using the current state.
- You have a point on the '-1632x', and I'll shed no tears on that. So I can blame you for all that extra typing! What's your field of study, computer geeks almost always like long names.
- But '1632 series' doesn't give any clue that it's a book, or that 1632 is a year; moreover you chose a bad example with star trek which is iconic. The alt-hist conforms to the Cat naming conventions better, IMHO. I excepted it so I'm still waiting for a rebuttal on that point. I think it's only fair since you reference the document! :)
- ... Let me think on it some more. I haven't been to bed trying to move this project set into decent shape. If you have a good eye for spelling gaffs, a good look behind me would be appreciated!
- I'll see if I can scare up some copyedit types I know to do the same. I've been imbedding templates to attract help on that as well. We should really keep this on the series talk. Just bottom section post a minor period or some such with a summary message to go see where ever..
Later! FrankB 17:58, 26 March 2006 (UTC) SO what do we do with what's done? Not me! FrankB What form are we not arguing about? More to the point, you do realize that any change is moot as they're already there. Even deleting one will cause more work. Some of them are redundant, but communicate different senses, thus are still useful. So what is the big deal??? The Cats are a one time, one edit in one page need. I fail to understand why this is no more than a matter of taste and style. Are you going to wake up screaming from a nightmare caused by the dream memory you couldn't shake screaming that you forgot the spelling? when you will hardly ever, if ever have to type one on any day going forward? Can we just get some work done instead of quarreling about a negligible preference? I'm sorry you don't approve, but if you haven't gotten the hint, I'm shocked at what I found for the state of this project. You guys started this a year or more ago and just orphaned it in a stub state. Is that because you had too many arguements and couldn't divvy things up, or because no one cared?

Request:
I ask that you reconsider your vote for abstention in light of the recent revisions that I have made to philosophy of mind. --Lacatosias 09:45, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
Could you translate the last missing Polish sentence into English? I can only guess he was voivode of Cracow and something else. Thank you, Kusma (討論) 19:51, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
Battles
Most of the boxes are already in each "Battles of (war)" subcat. For now, I've left the two boxes in Battles of Poland because they still have a lot of red links. Appleseed (Talk) 20:50, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
Flight of the turkey
Hi, Piotrus, thanks for your comments on S. A. Andrée's Arctic balloon expedition of 1897 on FAC. The article has apparently just been promoted to FA this morning, but I'm going to add a little about the discovery of the Kvitøya camp like you suggested. (Not a whole section, though.) I was rather surprised it took so long before somebody requested it, actually. ;-) I was trying to keep the overall length down, as it was already longer than really appeals to me, but I guess it did leave a bit of a gap, you're quite right. Best, Bishonen talk 09:29, 27 March 2006 (UTC).
Troll User:66.228.120.35 also User:69.57.177.154 ?
Hi. At Talk:Mark_Lawson, you wrote "66.228.120.35 (talk · contribs) is a troll, no doubt about it. Revert on sight". I've noticed that 69.57.177.154 (talk · contribs) makes the same sort of edits, labelling people (mostly or all British) as Jews, without providing any evidence — eg., the latest edit to Trevor Dann. S/he is also a bit "wheely"; see here and here. I've only been editing Wikipedia for a few months, and I'm not completely sure what to do about this. I'd appreciate any suggestions you might have. — Chris Chittleborough 13:50, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
Thankyou for your comments on the AIDS article. You were absolutely correct in the ommission of these two important sections. I hadn't thought to add them in before, probably because I was blinded by the medical aspects. A lot more data about the economic impact of AIDS, has been added in its own section coupled with some nice references. The stigma section has also been expanded upon slightly. What else do you think should be done to improve the article? --Bob 20:10, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
Please see this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Russsian_claims_about_Warsaw_Uprising_1794 The author tries to put information from non-objective source as objective article. The source is from Imperial Russia regarding Polish uprising against its occupation. Imperial Russia was known for fabricating and being source of many antipolish fabrications. Because I didn't want to delete this(no blanking) I moved it to a proper article that would deal with claim. --Molobo 03:07, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
Muscowy-Polish-Lithuanian Union
This will interest you if you remember the discussion: [10] I think you could add this to article quite easly. --Molobo 06:42, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
