Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button   located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when.

Croatian Party of Rights - why replace with red wlinks?

edit

Can you please explain why are you mass replacing links to Croatian Party of Rights with the red link Croatian Party of Right? Did you perhaps forget to create the red link page or redirect? - Nuβiατεch Talk/contrib 20:50, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

He appears to believe that this is a more correct translation of the name. I hope he's right. Is there an external source that uses that translation instead? TheFeds 21:04, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to House of Representatives of Bosnia and Herzegovina has been reverted, as it appears to introduce incorrect information. Please do not intentionally add incorrect information to articles. All information in this encyclopedia must be verifiable in a reliable, published source. If you believe the information that you added was correct, please cite the references or sources or before making the changes, discuss them on the article's talk page. Please use the sandbox for testing. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you. NorwegianBlue talk 21:08, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

  The recent edit you made to 1895 visit of Emperor Franz Joseph to Zagreb has been reverted, as it appears to intentionally introduce incorrect information. Please do not continue to do this; such edits are considered vandalism. Thank you. NorwegianBlue talk 21:09, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not intentionally introduce incorrect information to pages, as you did with this edit to List of political parties in Croatia. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. NorwegianBlue talk 21:12, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

  This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Split–Dalmatia County. NorwegianBlue talk 21:13, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Please - you Viking do not know anything about Croatia. Party of right is correct translation. And for Split-Dalmatia, there have been elections in 2009 and the assembly now has DIFFERENT distribution of memebrs and parties; it needed to be chanched!!!--Josinj (talk) 21:21, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

The Croatian Party of Rights

edit

I've verified that, although it is a right-wing party, the English translation is Croatian Party of Rights, as in civil rights, and not right, as in right-wing, see Britannica and a gazillion other web pages. --NorwegianBlue talk 21:29, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well, that must be VERY wrong. It does not mean left or right, it means statehood right, right on independent state - it refers to Croatian historical right, what was the iuridical term used in 19th century, when party was founded. Check the German translation: des Rechts - it is singular, not plural for sure and it has not any conection with civil or human rights whatsoever! THIS DISCUSSION IS RIDICUOLUS - a Croatian historian discusses with complete foregner in this matter!!! --Josinj (talk) 21:35, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
(ec):It appears that this is a language issue, see Josinj's last page move, and the edit summary. It appears to be singular in the original. Nevertheless, "right" in singular to my non-native ears doesn't work very well in English in this context, if anything it has the connotation of "right" vs "wrong", not that which appears to be intended, and there is a universally accepted English translation. A native English speaker should be the judge here, neither a Croatian historian nor a Norwegian googler. --NorwegianBlue talk 21:43, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Addendum:
"croatian party of right" gets 594 ghits.
"croatian party of rights" gets 6,110 ghits.
A redirect from "Croatian Party of Right" to "Croatian Party of Rights" may be warranted, but I fail to see why the more common English form shouldn't be used in Wikipedia. I've also checked the party's website, but the only place the word "right(s)" appears is in "All rights reserved". --NorwegianBlue talk 22:04, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
I have reverted the articles you've edited, changing "Party of Right" back to "Party of Rights". I realize that your edits were made in good faith. Nevertheless, when making massive changes which affect many Wikipedia pages, one should always seek consensus before doing so. In this case a change of the translation of the name of the party could have been proposed on the talk page of the party's article. Doing massive changes on many Wikipedia pages, introducing a name change that may be grammatically correct but linguistically clumsy, and rarely used elsewhere, is easily perceived as disruptive, regardless of whether it is made by a Croatian historian. --NorwegianBlue talk 22:49, 14 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/445306/Party-of-Right ??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Josinj (talkcontribs) 06:06, 15 June 2009
There appears to be two entries in EB, one named "Croatian Party of Rights", and one named "Party of Right". Searching for "Croatian Party of Right" on the website of EB yields no hits. So as stated above, it boils down to reaching consensus on whether a name change on the relevant Wikipedia pages should be made. See also the google hit counts cited above. --NorwegianBlue talk 15:54, 15 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Fidesco International

edit
 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Fidesco International, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Advertisement with no claims of notability

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Postjudice

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Postjudice, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://dict.tu-chemnitz.de/dings.cgi?o=302;iservice=fortune-en;query=prejudice.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Speedy deletion nomination of Postjudice

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Postjudice requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Franziska Lechner, but we regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to contain material copied from http://www.sisters-fdc.org.uk/fdc/program-of-life.htm, and therefore to constitute a violation of Wikipedia's copyright policies. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are liable to be blocked from editing.

If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:

It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

If you would like to begin working on a new version of the article you may do so at this temporary page. Leave a note at Talk:Franziska Lechner saying you have done so and an administrator will move the new article into place once the issue is resolved.

It is not enough to assert permission to use, as you have done on the talk page.

Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing! JohnCD (talk) 20:02, 22 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Since we do not yet have verification of permission by the processes set out above and sufficient time has passed since the placement of the notice, the article has been deleted for copyright concerns. This deletion is not necessarily permanent. If you have already sent a letter to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License (CC-BY-SA) and GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) (if you are not the copyright holder or have co-authored the material, release under CC-BY-SA-compatible license alone is sufficient), the article will be restored when that letter is received and processed by the Wikimedia Communications committee. Likewise, if you have not yet sent a letter, you still may (or resend it, if you believe your original may have been lost), and the article will be restored when that letter is received and processed.

As Wikipedia does not require proof of identity on account creation, it is essential that we receive external proof of authorization in order to ensure that we remain compliant with US Copyright law. It is also essential that we verify that copyright holders understand the extent of the release they are authorizing, in that our licenses permit modification and reuse in any forum, even commercial publication, as long as authorship credit is maintained and future copies are compatibly licensed.

Please note that once permission is verified, the material may be evaluated and altered to meet Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Although we appreciate donations, we cannot guarantee that material donated will be retained.

I'm afraid that your note at the talk page was not sufficient for several reasons. First, it is not a usable license. As explained above, the content must be specifically licensed to be compatible with Wikipedia. Even if it were a usable license, though, I'm afraid that you did not verify permission through one of the acceptable processes outline above. There are two of these. They can place the licensing statement above at their website (it currently says only "© Daughters of Divine Charity"; it must license the content under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License (CC-BY-SA), version 3.0, or place the material is released into the public domain). Or they can send an e-mail to the Wikimedia Foundation including the consent form found at Wikipedia:Declaration of consent for all enquiries. Their e-mail should be sent from the sisters-fdc.org.uk domain so that our e-mail correspondents can verify that they sent the permission.
If you need further explanation about these processes, please let me know. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:14, 9 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
