Hrvatski maternji, Srpski srednje :) joj umrecu od smeha

OK, hajde molim te objasni mi kako to moze Hrvatski da ti bude maternji jezik, a kazes Srpski umes da pricas samo srednje? Bilo bi lepo da malo iskuliras sa guranjem hrvatskog nacionalizma i tisuceljetnog sna, a ako to ne mozes, onda bar malo iskuliraj sa anti-srpskim komentarima koje nevesto sakrivas optuzujuci Srbe za NPOV.

OK, could you please explain how it is that Croatian is your native tongue, and you state that your knowledge of Serbian is only at a medium level? It would be nice if you could chill out with the Croatian nationalism, and if this is not possible, then cutting down on the anti-serb comments, which are disguised as accusations of NPOV in Serbian users' articles, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, and I hope that you accept this obviously true comment the way your, often justified, and always much appreciated, contributions to Serb-related topics have been accepted. Finally, I include the English translation, just in case you didn't understand the Serbian:) Get over it, it's Serbo-Croatian or Croato-Serbian, no matter how hard you try do deny it. --Bora Nesic 03:50, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

I remember you asking proof on Serbs in Dubrovnik

... in the 18th and 19th centuries. Please read this: Srpska društva u Dubrovniku. Please bear in mind that I only wish to point the presence od Serbian culture there during that period of time; and respect it as much as I respect the Croatian culture in Vojvodina (this is actually not meant for you, but for those who see this post and attack me with a knife and acuse of being a Greater Serbian nationalist :) Hear from you soon! --HolyRomanEmperor 19:25, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Gle tko se vratio

Evo a ja sam gotovo izgubio nadu!

Stekoh prijatelja, i to na vašoj strani. Naime stekoh hrvatskih prijatelja. To jest, stekoh Elephantusa. Znaš ga?

Oh, i postadoh administrator na srpskoj Wiki. Velike li časti.  ;) --VKokielov 02:32, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Evo malo gore vidim da dok nisi bio prisutan, postao si i hrvatski nacionalista. Jok.

Oni svima daju administratorstvo, ali to ne znaci da ja uzimam slobodu u ovom pogledu. (Hey, Romanm sa slovenske je postao administrator tamo, pa sto ne bih i ja?) --VKokielov 02:51, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Falio si nama kad smo gurali zatvaranje srpskohrvatske Wiki, jer ona je postala Pokrajcev playground, barem donekle, u smislu da on i njegovi sakupljaju tekstovi s srpske enciklopedije i bez ddrugog pogleda ih stavljaju tamo. To, naravno, prilicno ljuti srpskih administratora. Bio je vote o zatvaranju, ali eto nismo imali "konsenzusa":

Još jedna stvar. Dok nisi bio ovdje, uhapsili su Gotovinu. Možda znaš?  ;(

Answer bit-by-bit :)

Dakle, mogu ti sigurno tvrdit što je s Tvrtkom. On se krunisao u Mili 1377 godine, a kasnije iste godine u Mileševu, gdje je potvrdio svoj suverenitet nad Srbima.

Mogao bi doći i hitnu pomoć na sr.wiki Članak o Hrvatksoj je u zadnjih par dna bio zaključavan, otključavan, vandaliziran... Barem pogledaj ako ti se dade.

Vidio same te slike, i odgovorih ti na Talk:Croatia. Tada je mladi regent, 1925, mislim da je ta godina, naredio postavljanje spomenika u čast idolu njegova sina - 1,000 - godišnjica prvog (Jugo)Slavenskog kralja - Tomislava I Trpimirovića. Spomenici su postavljeni od Pule do Ulcinja, ako me pamet služi, samo su neki opstali. Taj u Dubrovniku, i još neki u Dalmaciji, pretpostavljam.

Serbs of Croatia i History of Croatian Serbs su već tute. Samo, čim su nastali, nastali su i controversies. Ako nijesi znao - Ruđer Josip Bošković je u zadnjih nekoliko dne ponovo postao čistokvrni Hrvat, pa srpski nacionalist, pa produkcija uma Vojislava Šešelja... itd. Mislih da je pravedno da ga uključim u sliku i spisak najznamenitijih Srba iz Hrvatske, no Elephantus i drugi garantiraju da je on Hrvat i nipošto išta drugo - pa mi ne ostaje mlogo šta :S (iako si mi čak ti rekao da mu je otac Srbin, a majka Italijanka :D.

Pogledaj De Administrando Imperio i vidjet ćeš da piše Belgrade. Srijemom su vladali Panonci (uzgred, evo napisah i Ljudevit Posavski), pa bio je kratko dio Kraljevine Hrvatske, jer ga 927 godine osvaja Simeon (oba Sre/ijema :), car Bugara. Nijesi Srbi sagradili Dubrovnik, već kako kaže De Regno Sclavorum iz Barskoga Rodoslova, ujak Časlava Klonimirovića Vlastimirovića, (obećavam ti da ću ti nabaviti i citat). No, da je Dubrovačku tvrđavu sagradio Kralj Duklje i Dalmacije Konstantin Bodin (Petar III) Vojislavljević u drugoj polovici XII vijeka - je opšte poznata stvar (uskoro je stavljam i na Duklja pogledaj taj članak kad budeš imao vrijemena)

? Gundulićeva nacionalnost nema veze što je pratio popularni srpski epski mit ("dokazan" od strane "nevjerovatnoga" povijesničara Jovana I. Deretića - ako nisi čuo o njemu - i nemoj! :) da je Aleksandar Maćedonski bio Srbin.

A, trenutno se interesiram za Bosansku povijest, pa napisah: History of Herzegovina, Matej Ninoslav, Prijezda I, Prijezda II, Kotroman, Stephen II Kotromanić i prepravih Kulina Bana, a i mnogo za Tvrtka ide uskoro.

I poslijednje, ali ne i najmanje: [2] Evo ti nešto za razonodu. Mnogo odgovora daje zašto smo mi ex-yugoovci takvi. :D Iako su uglavnom odavde, 20% su skinuli sa HRT-a i RTL-a. Ovi najnoviji nisu toliko smiješni koliko prošli, pa ćeš morati da malo pretražiš.

Pozdrav! --HolyRomanEmperor 16:02, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

One more bit

Now, I have found some sources on Rudjer Boskovic, but fellow-wikipedians refused to put them, so I am asking you to check their verification:

• Virtual Library

• Ancestry of Rudjer Boskovic (which has already been discussed)

• Serbian Literature from Encyclopedia Britannica

• Rudjer Boskovic, Virtual Library

Regards. --HolyRomanEmperor 22:35, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Trebalo bi malo srijedit one prominent individuals sa Serbs of Croatia. Napravih mess :S

Nemam pojma. Vjerovatno ima veze sa onim poznatim "... gdje si god na pučini Jadrana, prvu stvar koju ćeš vidjeti je barem jedan spomen kralja Tomislava..." tako da se svuda sa Jadrana vidi. Samo ne razumijem kako se jedna pločica može vidjeti odatle :D

Slažem se s tobom u vezi Boškovića. Pa, ne žuri, no pogledaj te linkove. Za sada Elephantus i drugi vode ratove (iz kojih se davno povukoh), on vadi Ruđera sa Serbs of Croatia i List of Serbs, i mijenja Ruđerov članak - za sada stoji da je on vjerovatno Hrvat, ali da ga svojata uzizanje srpskog nacionalizma Srpske Radikalne Stranke kao na primjer Vojislav Šešelj :D (baš to piše :) a druga strana vraća njegove promijene. No, trenutno je u vođstvu, jer je mlogo uporan.

Gdje si čuo da je Ljudevit Posavski pobjegao u Srb? Stavih to, alo je Elephantus tvrdio da je to Srpski Nacionalistički Mit, pa izbacih. Uzgred, ako neko pročita Chronicum Venetum, De Administrando Imperio, Barski Rodoslov (s De Regno Sclavorum), i izvještaje brojnih povijesničara, pa i Jovana Skilice i drugih... naizgled izgleda zbunjeno i razbacano, no vidjet će se da ti dokumenti samo potvrtđuju jedni druge. Mogu ti čak objasnit ako želiš, no to neće biti kratak post :-)

Mislim da gledaš pogrešne snimke. Ne bih rekao da su policajci i voditelji (među njima i Tomislav sa RTL-a) neuki ljudi :D Isto ima i par sa duhovnim ljudima, a i jedan sa Miroljubom Labusom (jednim od političara).

E, to za Gundulića si potpuno u pravu. Ti na jugu Dalmacije su čas Srbi, čas Hrvati. Jedini način (što je, moram priznati, sramota) da znamo ko su i što su ako se proderu ko jeleni u sred trga Dubrovnika. :) Primjer (ovo su sve katolici): Grof Medo Pucić koji je pijevao pjesmu o Srpstvu Dubrovnika i otišao u Beograd gdje je napisao spomenike Srbske od uhh... negdje 14-15 vijek (srpska povijest u tom periodu).

Citat Milana Rešetara:

Зато ја још увијек тврдим, као што сам тврдио пред педесет година да се у Дубровнику није никада говорило, ни у њему цијелом ни у једном његовом дијелу далматинским чакавско-икавским говором него увијек само херцеговачким штокавско-јекавским. Ја не идем даље од тога научног резултата, а нећу никако да улазим у, нажалост, обновијени спор о српству или хрватству Дубровника, јер су мени Срби и Хрвати један народ под два имена, па ми је зато Дубровник српски и хрватски. Али ко дијели српство од хрватства мора признати да је Дубровник по језику био увијек српски.

Onda imaš onog fratra koji je pobijegao na ostvrlje i spjevao pjesmo O 'rvatima Dubrovnika itd. Now you get the picture :O) Pročitaj onaj link kad budeš mog'o o Srpskim Društvima i iskazi svoje mišljenje.

Samo još jedno pitanje. Da li je Hrvatska bila zemlje dvojnog naroda - Hrvata i Srba do 1990 (kao Makedonija - Makedonaca i Albanaca sada?) ili je nešto drugo u pitanju? Bog! --HolyRomanEmperor 18:34, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Sorry:)

Hi,

I've been thinking and feel like I owe you an apology for my rash personal attack with regards to the Croatian language delcaration. Though I still fundamentally disagree with your view, that was certainly not a way to engage in a civil discussion. I guess what ticked me off was the removal of the cyrilic from the Rade Serbedzija page (explanation, not an excuse:). In any case, I am sorry and I look forward to colaborating with you on articles related to South Slavs, for even if we disagree, I truly value your contributions and open-mindedness. Best regards, --Bora Nesic 04:23, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

p.s. If you or anybody you colaborate with on Wikipedia knows anything on the topic of Praxis school and the Praxis philosophers such as Milan Kangrga, we could really use some help on those pages. Thx.

Ljetopis Popa Dukljanina

Dakle, mogu ti poslati cijelu stvar. Nevjerovatno je zanimljiva - ali i velika. On navodi da koristi iz 753 De Regno Sclavorum koga naziva predanjem i naglasava da je dio o Svetom Konstantinu crkveno predanje, a za ostale stvari jemci. Jedino mi se ne svidja to sto u mnogo slucajeva ispada da je sin zivio nekada cak 200 godina prije oca. :D Dakle, napisano je na osnovu strucnog istrazivanja - ali izuzetno lose napisano, a ja mislim da je sve pokvario onaj koji je djelo preveo na Latinski jezik - koristio je pig Latin. :)

Dakle, Grgur je govorio sa nadahnutim patriotizmom i romanticarskim nacionalizmom, a samo djelo je na neki nacin bila propaganda - za gradjane Drzave koja rapidno izumire. Djelo je pojacavalo neovisnost Duklje od bilo kojih zemalja i posebno se uvijek koncentrisalo na Povijest Grada Bara - Barsku bitku je predivno opisao. Poslijednje redove je Grgur napisao dok je vojska Stefana Nemanje opsedala grad, a i sam Grgur je izgleda bio mocna figura tadasnjega Bara koja je imala veliku ulogu u odbrani i ocuvanju samostalnosti grada.

Stefan Nemanja ga je prognao iz Barske stolice, i ona ce nekoliko godina ostati potpuno pusta dok je Vukan Nemanjic ne objavi na zalaganje Pape. Grgur je izgleda otisao na zapad - pa se zato i tamo ocuvalo to dijelo. Takodjer, puna titula mu je bila Grgur, nadbiskup Barski, primat Srbije. --HolyRomanEmperor 14:22, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

the map of Western Europe

Hi, I am Flamarande. First, I want to thank you for the the map "Western Europe". It is a good piece of work, and I used as soon as I found it, in the article Western Europe. Alas, a "user with sharp eyes" noticed that Slovenia (between italy and Austria, northeastern corner) is painted in yellow. According to the article (which I reformed, and therefore agree with) "Western Europe" describes mainly the countries which were not part of eastern/communist bloc. Soo... could you improve the map, please? I would be much obliged, and hope for a answer. Thanks Flamarande 13:11, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Pro-Croat propaganda corrected--role of Roman Catholic church in genocide made clear

The Bleiburg massacre occurred near to the end of World War II, during May 1945. It is named after the village of Bleiburg on the Austrian-Slovenian border, near where the massacre began.

It involved mass murder of Croatian soldiers and civilians who were fleeing from the defeated Independent State of Croatia, an associate of Nazi Germany.

Although a still undefined number of Croatian soldiers died during a series of battles and skirmishes, it is generally accepted that the vast portion of violent deaths were the result of executions that lasted at least two weeks after the cessation of hostilities. The victims were Croatian soldiers and civilians, executed without trial as an act of vengeance for the crimes committed by the Ustaše regime in Croatian-controlled territories during World War II — frequently in overtly gruesome manner (mass rape and subsequent killing by stoning of Catholic Croat whores and beheading Croatian disarmed soldiers, albeit too few to make a real difference.

Emigration by Croatian Nazis to Canada and Australia with the assistance of the Roman Catholic church unfortunately could not be stopped.

DITTO

Ditto to the last comments; as an Irishman I am embarrassed that fellow Catholics like the Croatian people could do such things.

AodhBlathmac@eirelover.net 22:25, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Unfortunately, the above "editor" is agreeing with himself, being one and the same person as 69.31.83.202 and the charming Aisling O'Cuiv (see this talk page's history) - both sock-puppets of Rms125a@hotmail.com. "Aodh" is neither an Irish man (unless he's "Irish-American"), and if he is a catholic, he, and the other socks of Rms125a, have shown a deep, deep, hatred of all things catholic.

No, ti idi kojim redom zelis. Ja cu cekati tvoje odgovore u vezi Rudjera, Ustava i Dubrovackih Srba do trenutka kada SCG udje u Europsku Uniju. :-D Gdje si bio do sada? Nisu valjda neki zdravstveni problemi (Mir mi je ukazao na to...).

A iskreno da ti kazem, rekli su da sam srpski Cetnkicki nacionalista (Emir Arven), da sam Srbomrzac i slicno (Nikola Smolenski), da previse volim Hrvato ko sto je Ivo Andric previse volio Srbe, da mrzim Hrvatske ustase iz sveg srca; .... pa mislim da ipak nije problem u meni. :D

Just a question... (Yugoslavs)

Hi. Few days ago I deleted a link "Soviet people" from article "Yugoslavs" because in my opinion it didn't fit in there. Soviet people would refer to peoples in former Soviet Union. It seems naturally for that link to be on, for example, Estonians,Georgians, etc. Slavic peoples yes, but soviet!? Except that, the reason I deleted it is that it may cause confusion among poeple in USA or anywhere among people who don't know the circumstances in Europe so well. (I know that from expirience of a friend that was in the USA for a year). Obviously, you had a reason for putting link back, but I don't see it, so if you could just explain it, please. No hard feelings...

Ok, thanks for such a quick response. Bye.

Pitanje...

Halo, ja mislim da je van pameti da ima clanak Kozarska Dubica, koji je kompletna kopija clanka Bosanska Dubica. Ja sam masivno dodao teksta za "article" Bosanska Dubica. Moje mjesto rodenja je Bosanska Dubica zato znam mnogo informacije. Ja sam da se napravi redirect sa Kozarska Dubica na Bosanska Dubica (Kao sto je i bilo). Clanak Bosanska Dubica je od 2005 godine, a kopija Kozarska Dubica je od juce.

Da Silva i nacionalnost

Pogledaj koja je praksa na drugim stranicama Wikipedije. Igračima koji igraju za reprezentaciju druge zemlje od one u kojoj su rođeni stoji nacionalnost te zemlje. Zbog čega je to tako? Zbog toga što je zapravo jedina bitna stvar to što je igrač svojim igranjem za neku reprezentaciju na službenoj utakmici doživotno vezan uz tu reprezentaciju i više je ne može promijeniti. Znam da je to ne samo praksa na Wikipediji nego valjda ne svim medijima i stranicama vezanima uz nogometne klubove. Budući da nisam neki veliki nogometni fan sad kao što sam bio prije, namučio sam se da nađem primjer igrača koji sad igra nogomet a igra za reprezentaciju države u kojoj nije rođen. Imaš link na talk page-u od Dinama.

Dakle, ne radi se o tome šta je fer nego šta je službeno u FIFA-i. A službeno je da Silva Hrvat ma kolko to čudno zvučalo. Pozdrav! Jakiša Tomić 22:03, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Ajde dobro, stvarno ima tih katalonskih zastava kolko god hoćeš pa možemo stavit i dvije kod da Silve. Inače, nije poanta u tome da li je on promijenio državljanstvo (nije opće ni poanta u državljanstvu) nego u tome da znaš čiji je on reprezentativac. Ostale informacije su nebitne za nekog nogometnog gledatelja. Naravno, na stranici o da Silvi piše sve.

Da ne bi bio krivo shvaćen, ne mislim da će ikome naškodit ako stavimo zastavu Brazila kod imena da Silve, ali kad ja vidim dvije zastave kod imena igrača pretpostavljam da ima dvojno državljanstvo te dvije države i da nije još zaigrao za ijednu od tih reprezentacija. Bar ja tako na to gledam.

Inače, kad si mi već ukazao na Barcelonu (i na zastavice Katalonije koje su stvarno smiješne u kontekstu nogometa), kako bi ja mogao doznat čija je ideja to sa zastavicama uz imena igrača (općenito na stranicama klubova na Wikipediji) pa da se raspitam je li namjera bila da se kaže čiji je igrač (šta će reć reprezentacija i šta ja mislim da je ispravno) ili i otkud je igrač? Pitam jer ovaj kupus i nekonzistentnost nema smisla. Jakiša Tomić 23:45, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Skalić

Joy it is obična izdajica! Ili pak teški neznalica i ignorant kad kao netko iz Hr. dopuštaš i potpomažeš da se oko Skalića, koji je Hrvat i ništa drugo, stvara jalove kontroverze a sve zbog gluposti i ignorancije Anglo-saksonskih enciklopedija, koje Skalića konstantno trpaju pod Nijemca, Mađara i tko zna još pod šta. Samo da ne bude Hrvat- pobogu, kako bi bilo moguće da je neki tamo Hrvat izmislio takav pojam kao što je enciklopedija!!!

Pavao Skalić je nedvojbeno Hrvat, čemu bi ove neznalice iz VB i SAD-a trebalo poučiti, a ne potpomagati i daljnje ponavljanje gluposti kako se radi o Nijemcu i Mađaru. Na taj se način nikada ne će ispraviti takva glupost, koja se nažalost nalazi u mnogim stranim enciklopedijama! Razmisli malo o tome!

Rens via Pula

Trebalo je izbrisati čitavu referencu o njegovoj nacionalnosti- pobogu pa to je apsolutna glupost- umjetno stvaranje kontroverze!!! Neka se naša strana gospoda nauće već jednom da su neki podaci, kod njih u enciklopedijama NETOČNE BUDALAŠTINE!!! Oni imaju problema sa svojim zdravim razumom, neznanjem elementarnih činjenica, ali se usuđuju dodavati nekakve priloge na tekstu o enciklopediji i o Skaliću, dok se meni prijeti blokiranjem kada brišem te gluposti! A ONDA IM I TI IDEŠ JOŠ POMAGATI!!! PA GDJE JE TU ZDRAV RAZUM?!

SKALIĆEVA NACIONALNOST JE KONTROVERZA SAMO OVIM DEBILIMA SA STRANE WIKIPEDIJE!!! Zbog čega je i tebi, nije mi jasno!!!??? Zašto si vratio dio o nacionalnosti?! TO SU UBACILI OVI IDIOTI JUČER- I TO ŠTO SU ONI DODAVALI BI SE MOGLO SMATRATI VANDALIZMOM!

Sve što navodiš već sam jučer učinio. Argumentirao sam s njima preko 3 SATA, pružao im razumne argumente, lingvističke dokaze, činjenice, web stranice kao izvore, ali oni su se i dalje držali slijepo svojih "svetih" enciklopedija, umjesto da su pokušali barem malo razmisliti logikom zdravog razuma. Dakle, dok smo došli do toga da se ja zestim protekli su sati i sati uzaludnog debatiranja- objašnjavanja nekoga tko je upučeniji, ali nije bilo dobre volje da se malo razmisli i revidira očito krive informacije. Što mi ostaje drugo, nego pretpostaviti da je opet riječ o tipičnoj zapadnjačkoj aroganciji i egocentrizmu. Nadalje, ukoliko želiš, možeš im ti ponovno pokušati objasniti neke stvari, ali se ne nadaj puno u to da ćeš pronaći nekoga tko tamo zdravorazumski rezonira!

Ali, mislim da u svakom slučaju treba ukloniti podnaslov "Nationality" jer je čitava ta kontroverza utemeljena na gluposti i netoćnim podacima nekih Anglo-saksonskih i zapadnjačkih enciklopedija. Umjesto toga bi bolje bilo da se navede da u istim enciklopedijama (navesti ih) postoje netočni i zastarjeli podatci o nacionalnosti Paula Pavla Skalića i argumentirati zbog čega su netočni!

Srednja Europa

Dakle Shallout alias Joy Hrvatska je područje rubno Srednjoj Europi?! Pa ti stari nemaš pojma ne samo o povijesti (što vidim iz nekih drugih razgovora) nego i sa elementarnim zemljopisom. Svrstavaš jednu Srbiju, pa čak i Ukrajinu koja je daleko već na istoku prema Rusiji, u isti koš! Srbija osim krajnjeg sjevernog dijela, svojom glavninom nikada ni u kojem kontekstu nije pripadala Srednjoj Europi. Štoviše, stoljećima je dio onog istog "istoka" koji je više puta odigrao izrazito negativnu- destruktivnu ulogu upravo u pokušaju negacije svega onoga što je ta ista Srednja Europa. Naprotiv, Hrvatska je od svojih samih početaka uvijek na ovaj ili onaj način bila dio zapadnog kruga, sjeverni dio Srednje Europe, južni Mediterana. Ali je čak i južni dio usljed kulturnih veza i političkih prilika ( Dalmacija i Istra- dijelovi srednjoeuropskog Habsburškog carstva!) bio pod izrazitim srednjoeuropskim utjecajem (uz, naravno, dominantni mediteranski). Dakle, Hrvatska je barem svojom polovicom uvijek pripadala Srednjoj Europi, dok je drugi dio bio pod snažnim utjecajem iste. To nije zanemariva činjenica! Dakle Hrvatska je gotovo ravnopravni dio Srednje Europe, a ne nekakva granična zemlja!

Buduci da se nisi ulogirao i koristis privremenu IP adresu, odgovorit cu ovdje.

Ne znam tocno kako si to tocno zakljucio da ja ne smatram da je Hrvatska dijelom srednje Europe. Mozda zato sto u uvodu u clanak Croatia inzistiram da se spomene "bordering on" i srednja i jugoistocna i juzna?

Ako je to u pitanju, molim te shvati da nije poanta u rijeci bordering, nego da je poanta u spominjanju sva tri utjecaja a ne samo jednog, jer je bilo ljudi koju si inzistirali na spominjanju samo jednog (pogadjas - balkanskog).

I pozeljno bi bilo da s malo vise postovanja pristupas sugovorniku - netko drugi bi samo ignorirao cijeli komentar zbog onih besmislenih uvreda gore. --Joy [shallot] 21:33, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi Joy

I am doing a project whereby I am interviewing 32 fans - one from each country ahead of the football world cup. Would you be knowledgeable enough to answer questions on Croatia? If yes, would you be willing? If not, then could you suggest some one else from Croatia?

Do email me at pratyushkhaitan@gmail.com

Istrian villages

Hi Joy, I noticed your edits to some Istrian stubs I was working on a while back. In Croatia, when can a village be considered a town? What number of inhabitants does it need to have or is there any other criteria? Also, are Opcine always rural municipalities? Thanks in advance, E Asterion ^{u talking to me?} 21:05, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Please read the fine descriptions at List of cities in Croatia, Category:Cities, towns and villages in Croatia, Category:Towns in Croatia, etc. Općina just means municipality, so the answer to the third question is basically yes. I have preserved the notion of "small town" for many relatively urbanized villages, but in the categorization, they simply can't be considered towns, so they go to the village category. --Joy [shallot] 23:25, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

OK, thanks. I cannot read Serbo-Croatian (oh well, with the exception of some greatly embarrasing tourist phrasebook bits :o)), so I work mainly from English translations, which are sometimes inconsistent in their usage. Cheers, E Asterion ^{u talking to me?} 21:14, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Iam Montenegrin but I do like all the history on the former Yugoslavia in particular that of Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia. Its funny to read the debates over origin etc... What I will say is this we're all from Africa or Adam and Eve so I guess the debate is pointless. Most of the former Yugoslavia is like a Pizza...you will never be able to get all the slices. We're all too mixed. Eg Petkovic, Petkovich, Petkowski, Petkovski, Pekov, Petkova..same name and found in all Slav lands so no point pointing out were different.

Template:Yugoslavia-stub

Hi Joy, I noticed you added the crvena petokraka flag to this stub. The thing is that as for Category:Yugoslavia stubs this was meant to be for stub articles relating to Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia but also for Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes/Kingdom of Yugoslavia. So it had neither red star nor the royal coat of arms. Let me know what you think. E Asterion ^{u talking to me?} 09:29, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Fixed now. I saw the FRY flag and instantly changed it because of the nomenclature - the tricolor was indeed the same but it was confusing to see it. --Joy [shallot] 11:06, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

Looks good, thanks. E Asterion ^{u talking to me?} 16:31, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

I noticed you are using Category:Second Yugoslavia. Will you be setting a similar range od stubs too? It sounds like a winner to me (i.e. SFRY and Kingdom of Yugoslavia separate stubs?). My only concern is that there may be less than 60 stubs as per guidelines. Thanks, --E Asterion ^{u talking to me?} 18:40, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

I don't think so, exactly because of that reason - there are probably fewer than 60 stubs per each category. --Joy [shallot] 20:08, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Novi članci

Pozdrav. Primetio sam da na Vikipediji ne postoje neki važni članci vezani za hrvatsku istoriju. Pošto ja nemam dovoljno podataka da bi ih napisao, predlažem ti da ih ti napišeš:

• 1. Prvo treba napisati članak Kingdom of Croatia po ugledu na Kingdom of Hungary. Članak nikako ne bi bio isto što i History of Croatia ili Medieval Croatian state (na koji sada ide kao redirekt). Članak "Kingdom of Croatia" bio bi o političkom entitetu koji se tako zvao u jednom delu istorije, što nije isto kao istorija današnje Hrvatske (History of Croatia) ili srednjovekovne Hrvatske (Medieval Croatian state), jer pojam Kingdom of Croatia prevazilazi ove pojmove.
• 2. Drugi članak bi bio Banovina of Croatia (medieval), o srednjovekovnoj hrvatskoj banovini u okviru Ugarske. Sadašnji članak Banovina of Croatia govori o hrvatskoj banovini u okviru Jugoslavije, ali bi trebao da postoji članak i o ovoj srednjovekovnoj.
• 3. i treći članak koji treba napisati je Pannonian Croatia o Panonskoj Hrvatskoj državi. Na primer postoji članak o vladaru ove države (Ljudevit Posavski), ali o samoj državi ne. Moja ideja je da treba da postoji više članaka o istorijskim državama i pokrajinama sa područja bivše Jugoslavije, koji ne moraju biti ne znam koliko opširni, ali dovoljno je da postoje i da pružaju neku informaciju o temi.

Pa jes, bolje je - sve su to Crnogorci srijedili. Slobodan Milosevic i njegovi su Crnogorci, pa ne zaboravimo i Radovana Karadzica i druge. ;) Zelja za nezavisnu Crnu Goru se pojavila 2000 godine, kada oni vise nisu bili na vlasti u Beogradu (dosli Vojislav Kostunica i Zoran Djindjic). Onda 2003 naivni Srbijanci im dadose opet vlast - misleci da ce se vratiti u normalu - a lukaviji su oni, slijedeci prijedsednik bi vjerovatno bio Srbijanac, pa ne bi oni dali. ;) Svetozar Marovic je bio 3 godine predsjednik drzave na koju je pljuvao i za cije se rasparcivanje zalagao (gdje to ima? Stipe Mesic je izdrzao samo nekoliko dana - a kamoli godina ;). Kada bi Srbija nesto ucinila dobro (haski zlocninci), hvalio bi zajednicu, a za lose Srbijino - krivio bi nju a ne sebe. Kada bi Crna Gora nesto dobro uradila, nju bi hvalio - a lose okrivljavao na Srbiju opet. :D --HolyRomanEmperor 19:54, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Mislim, Hrvati su mnogo naivni sto vjeruju.

Onda je ubedjivao da je Milosevic los, ali da buducnost Crne Gore lezi s Srbijom za svagda. Posle toga ponovo mijenja politiku. A sada kada cujem da Hrvati krive Srbijance govoreci kako su natjerali jadne Crnogorce - jos ispase "jadni". :))) --HolyRomanEmperor 17:23, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Stepinac censorship

You would be well advised to read the discussion carefully yourself. Removing Budak from the explanation of reversal of war crime sentence (which is clearly political when the context is given) is censorship. As for what rant is that is clearly subjective. To me, all this story about Croatian righteous who saved the Jews is rant, while you might call exposition of context in which this war criminal was rehabilitated a rant. That is POV issue, and it is not resolved by deleting information you dislike and calling it rant. Maayaa 00:21, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Neonazism in Croatia

Regarding what you said at article discussion Neonazism in Croatia for the user (anonimous) 4.*... (that is not me, but likely Purger) - you said you were close to blocking him!? So, you are an admin, and threaten to block people in disputes you are involved in, and that on the basis of POV. Dont you think it is against wiki policies? Once you are involved in a dispute, you should not abuse (or even use) your admin powers - that is not what these are meant for. So, please state clearly - are you willing to ban people for holding POV other than yours, or even people that are involved in edit wars with you? If you are, say it clearly, so we can then seek a comment on that attitude. If you are not, withdraw your threats to Purger! Maayaa 13:09, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

Pitao si me šta mislim o ovome (verovatno o ovome što si pretio da ćeš blokirati korisnika, pretpostavljam). Pa znaš kako, ja zato nisam ni hteo da se kandidujem za admina (iako su mi predlagali), jer bih došao u iskušenje da blokiram korisnike sa kojima sam u sporu. U stvari kad si admin, onda moraš da paziš koga blokiraš, pa čak i ako nekog sa kim si u sporu blokiraš opravdano, ne možeš biti siguran jesi li imao pravo da ga blokiraš ili ne. :) Ako pitaš mene da li bi bilo opravdano da blokiraš ovog korisnika ili ne, ne mogu ti reći, jer ne poznajem dobro pravila u vezi blokiranja korisnika. Po mom mišljenju, taj čovek te jednostavno zajebava, a ako je u skladu sa pravilima da nekog blokiraš zbog toga, onda treba raditi po pravilima. Sam članak je i napisan sa ciljem da predstavi Hrvatsku u lošem svetlu, a da li se od tog članka može dobiti NPOV verzija, u to čisto sumnjam. Uostalom gomila je sličnih POV članaka u vezi sa bivšom Jugoslavijom, vezanih za ratove i nacinalističke ideologije. Možda bi trebalo zamoliti neke neutralne admine koji nisu sa naših prostora da se pozabave tim stvarima.

Mda, ja o ovome razmisljam vec duze vrijeme. Da napravimo neki task force sastavljen od admina koji nisu s ovih prostora da uvede reda medju... nervoznije korisnike sa Balkana. Stvarno vec situacija poprima ramjere rata. --Dijxtra 18:19, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

Što se tiče konkretnog slučaja, zamoli nekog neutralnog admina da ti pomogne u vezi spora sa tim anonimnim korisnikom. Inače, ako ne arhiviraš ovu stranicu, ja ću ti je arhivirati kad navratim sledeći put. Ozbiljno ti kažem. :) PANONIAN (talk) 16:02, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

To answer your questiton: I think you are beating your head against the wall. But I also think that you're supposed to beat it a bit longer so you can claim you were so incredibly full of good faith. And then just proceed with your common sence. You are an admin because the community has trust in your actions. Keep that in mind. --Dijxtra 18:19, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

Pa kažem ti, ako te grize savest, zamoli drugog admina da razmotri situaciju i da blokira korisnika ako ima osnova za to. Inače mrzi me da ti arhiviram stranicu, a pošto mrzi i tebe, nećeš se ljutiti. :) Inače nisam baš 100 posto shvatio da li me pitaš za mišljenje u vezi tog anonimnog korisnika ili u vezi spora oko sadržaja članka. Što se tiče sadržaja, ja ne volim baš previše da se bavim sadržajem takvih članaka kao što su "Neo-Nazism in Croatia", "Bosnian genocide", "Yugoslav wars", itd. Neću više da se bavim ni pitanjem statusa Kosova u člancima, dok se to pitanje ne reši. Mislim da je korisnije raditi na kvalitetu "ozbiljnih" članaka nego ulaziti u rasprave sa ljudima kojima je cilj širenje propagande a ne pisanje ozbiljnih članaka. PANONIAN (talk) 21:05, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

Re: Please help...

To answer: You are just beating your head against the wall with people who don't accept compromise. There, satisfied? :)

I know how you feel. Just try to read the talk page of the Mehmed-paša Sokolović article. I have barely concluded the Orthodox Serbian or Orthodox Bosniak compromise - even though this altogether is very silly. Just look over its history and talk page, and you'll notice how Emir Arven treats "what Bosniaks think" as highly correct and relevant and what the whole world says "a Serbian fairy tale" (quote). He has pushed me so far that I stopped assuming good faith and even started to be slightly aggressive. This altogether has (while you were gone) ticked off quitte a number of Serbian nationalists (annons, etc.) who are simply frustrated that Rudjer Boskovic is presented as "claimed by Vojislav Seselj to be of Serbian descent" - while so little (even a lot less than in Rudjer's case) for Mehmed is sufficient for such claims. --HolyRomanEmperor 20:04, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi,

Dont blame me because the admin of this site are not smart enough to properly ban someone being as this is at LEAST the 30th time i have had my ip blocked for between 1 hour to 1 day allowing me to come back the next day, heck some times they only ban my username allowing me to come back within minutes. I consider my self as a sort of learning tool to the admin of this site so that maybe they will relize that no one is going to take there blocks seriously if we can simply come back within a sort period of time every time we are blocked.

Hrvatski ili mađarski nazivi

E vidi, nešto sam razmišljao oko naziva članaka o starim hrvatskim županijama: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Historical_counties_of_Croatia Nazivi članaka su sada na mađarskom ali mislim da bi trebali da budu na hrvatskom. Pogledaj ovo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Counties_in_the_Kingdom_of_Hungary Tu možeš videti da nazivi članaka o starim mađarskim županijama sa područja današnje Slovačke nisu na mađarskom, već na slovačkom. Tim pre bi trebali da koristimo hrvatske nazive za županije sa područja Hrvatske-Slavonije, koja je bila autonomna u okviru Ugarske i gde je hrvatski jezik bio službeni. Nasuprot tome, Slovačka nije bila autonomna niti je slovački bio službeni jezik u pomenutim županijama, ali nazivi ovih članaka su na slovačkom. Šta misliš o ovome? PANONIAN (talk) 23:02, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

• Pa u jednom od istorijskih atlasa koji imam (ovaj je izdat 1970 u bivšoj Jugoslaviji), županije se zovu ovako: varaždinska, križevačka, požeška, virovitička, sremska, zagrebačka, modruško-riječka, ličko-krbavska. Naravno, sremska županija bi pre bila srijemska u originalu (ovaj atlas je ipak izdat u Beogradu). Dakle nazivi naših članaka mogli bi biti: Varaždin, Križevci, Požega, Virovitica, Srijem, Zagreb, Modruš-Rijeka, Lika-Krbava (ovaj zadnji se već tako zove). Srijem bi mogao biti i Syrmia, jer se i članak o sadašnjoj hrvatskoj županiji zove Vukovar-Syrmia County, mada ja nemam ništa protiv ni da koristimo naziv Srijem. Pored glavnog naziva kod naslova bi u zagradu mogli napisati nešto kao "former county" ili slično. Ja nemam sada vremena da se time više bavim i da učestvujem u razgovoru na Talk:Administrative divisions of the Kingdom of Hungary, ali nadam se da ti ovo što sam napisao može pomoći da ti nešto uradiš sa tim. Naravno ukoliko imaš volje i vremena da se time baviš :) PANONIAN (talk) 23:30, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Pa šta fali ovoj literaturi koju sam ti naveo? :) Inače, napisao sam komentar na Talk:Administrative divisions of the Kingdom of Hungary, a možda ću kasnije predložiti i glasanje o promeni naziva članaka (Ipak se sa ovim treba nešto uraditi). PANONIAN (talk) 23:49, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Inače zanimljivo je da članak Lika-Krbava već ima hrvatsko ime, jer je pravilan mađarski naziv za tu županiju Lika-Korbava. Ako se niko ne bude bunio na moj predlog na Talk:Administrative divisions of the Kingdom of Hungary, ja ću preimenovati i druge članke o hrvatskim županijama za nekoliko dana (da dam prvo ljudima vremena da prodiskutuju o tome). PANONIAN (talk) 00:14, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Again Srijem issue.
Tell me, why hasn't been named the Vukovar-Syrmia County according to the same rule as Srem District?
Either we should have article renamed into Vukovar-Srijem County (so both parts of Syrmia have names in official language, named after Croatian and Serbian, respectively), or we should have article Srem District renamed into Syrmia District.

Template

Nego, imam i jednu molbu. Pogledaj ovo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Portal Ako se razumeš u to, da li bi mogao da otkloniš grešku koja postoji tu? Template izgleda dobro na brovserima Internet Explorer i Firefox, ali na Operi izgleda užasno (na Operi je prelomljen na dva dela i levi deo šablona (gde piše portal) se nalazi u desnom delu stranice a desni deo šablona (gde se nalazi slika) je potpuno odvojen od levog dela i nalazi se u levom delu stranice. Pored toga, taj otkinuti desni deo šablona zaklanja i linkove u tekstu na člancima gde se nalazi). To bi stvarno trebalo popraviti, a ako se ti ne razumeš u to, da li znaš kome da se obratim da bi to popravio? Napisao sam o problemu na stranici za razgovor tamo, ali nikog nije briga.

Bosut i još nešto

Evo, napisao sam članak o selu Bosut, Serbia, pa je tu i ono što te zanima. Te podatke ne možeš naći na netu, ja sam kupio CD sa tim podacima u Beogradu, pa imam podatke o stanovništvu i etničkom sastavu svakog mesta u Srbiji sa popisa 2002. Inače, ti možeš da edituješ zaštićene članke, je li tako?

Pa nije sada poenta koja je mapa bolja, jer te dve mape ne prikazuju istu stvar. Ona prva je mapa administrativne podele, a ova koju sam ja nacrtao je mapa većih gradova. Nisam ja kriv što taj region ima samo jedan veći grad :) Kod Tatarstana sam ih stavio više: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Tatar03.png Samo ti dodaj tu mapu, jer ona prva ne pokazuje lokaciju glavnog grada (možeš kod mape napisati da pokazuje region i grad). PANONIAN (talk) 21:59, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

from Ragusan

I am not as nostalgic as I am precise when it comes to entering ones contemporary country of birth (eg. Republic of Venice, or Independent Croatia for a place in Bosnia during 1942 etc). Saying that, I'm equally in favour of leaving out the country since the name of the town speaks for itself, and anyone who didn't know Kumrovec or Korčula could easily click the link. It's just that, when trying to tidy up Severina, I buggered up the year, 1971 instead of 1972 for which I apologise. Next time, I'll leave it to you without touching!! Ragusan June 28, 2006

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.

Lupis

Hello Joy, I'm sorry to see that you deleted again some correttions of mine. Lupis (wolfes) belong to an aristocratic family of the Italian nobility. A brench moved to the south of Dalmatia and slavized the name in Vukic. Then they moved to Fiume/Rijeka and they italianized again the name in Lupis or Luppis (read the links I inserted). You should know that in that the time the city was a "Corpus separatum" (separated body) of the Hungarian Kindgom, and that the urban population was mostly italian. So, it's not correct if you put the italian name in minor evidence. The turn the name in Lupis was a decision of the family itself, not of some italian nationalist of the 20th century! Furthermore it's not correct if you claim that Lupis is a "croatian engineer". It was from Fiume/Rijeka that belong to italian and croatian culture, in the same time and it's not correct to apply the PRESENT national conditions to the past. You want to impose your point of wiew, and this is against the rules of wikipedia. I will restore my corrections, pleas don't delete them againg or I shall ask for the intrvention of a moderator.

Others: - in the History of the family, wrotten by mr. Marco Lupis, I've seen that he was born in Fiume/Rijeka and he dead in Milan. Just have a look (you can understand this). - It's not possible this story about "italian garibaldines", for the simple reason that they never had a navy. Furthemore when Lupis started to work to the weapons there were not "garibaldini" at all. So....

Anyway I've contacted the family and I hope they will tell thir correct point of view. BTW: the photo came direct from the family: they decided to write Giovanni Ivan Lupis, so don't change it. --Giovanni Giove 09:08, 9 July 2006 (UTC)--Giovanni Giove 09:08, 9 July 2006 (UTC) --- Feel you free to use my comments as you want.

About disputed POVs on articles related to post-communist Eastern Europe

Hi,

I’m writting this message to you, and to User:Mindspillage and User:BradPatrick, because I still don’t have a full knowledge of how to proceed about Wikipedia administration/mediation/arbitration.

Well, I see there’s a kind of probelm regarding the creation (by myself on november 8) of the article 1999 NATO bombing of Serbia, which I’ve redirected to NATO bombing of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. There’s an edit war going: pro-Serbian users are trying to delete my redirect, and even when people (including myself) manifested against the deletion, the user which requested the deletion made the request again.

Please if you can help me to solve this question.

PS: Above all these problems, I don’t know about you, but I think sometimes there’s a kind of “Serbian Volunteer Guard Cabal” of users here in Wikipedia that try to make Wikipedian articles related to Serbia, Kosovo and Yugoslav Wars appear clearly pro-Greater Serbian/pro-Milosevic POV, making these articles to show an interpretation of facts very different from most of the press and academic sources around the world. A similar thing is happening now on Transnistria article, that show a clear pro-Transnistrian government POV, with a long war of arguments going on the discussion page of the article. Well, I don’t know what you can (or can’t) do about all of this, but if you have some answers pplease write to me. Best regards, --MaGioZal 13:51, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Archont Petar

Archont Petar was of Croatian origin. This is proven in the legend on the Duklja article, which says he had a brother, Krešimir.

Where did you get the idea that Archont Petar was a decendant of the Višeslav of Serbia? --Crna Gora 23:50, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Read this,it's from the link you gave me, under the The Serbs during the fighting between Byzantium and the Second Bulgarian Empire section. Then tell me if Petar was of Croatian or Serbian origin.

During their rule in Rasa the Bulgarians completely exterminated the old Serbian royal family. From 1036 to 1042 Dobroslav, called Stjepan Vojislav, member of an old Croatian family from Duklja, revolted and liberated Duklja and Rasa. --Crna Gora 23:59, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

That is true. The entire Vojislavljević family were of Croat origin too and that Duklja was a Croatian state, not Serbian. Please protect me in this case. I have proof off that site.

The proof:

From 1036 to 1042 Dobroslav, called Stjepan Vojislav, member of an old Croatian family from Duklja, revolted and liberated Duklja and Rasa. - This statement shows that Stjepan Dobroslav I Vojislav was of Croatian origin, meaning that his distant ancestor, Archont Petar, was of Croatian, not Serbian, origin.

Bodin (1081 – 1101), king of medieval Croatian Duklja, ushered in a new political era in Serbia. At the outset of his reign Bodin liberated Rasa from Byzantium and installed as its princes his two palatines Vukan and Marko, both Croats from Duklja born in Ribnica near modern Titograd. - This statement shows that Duklja was actually Croatian, rather than Serbian, which I agree. This statement also shows that the House of Nemanjić is of Croat origin as Vukan is of the Nemanjić's ancestors (Nemanja's great-great uncle or great-grandfather).

On August 3rd, 1189 he ruled over all of Duklja when Dezislava, wife of the last Croatian prince of Duklja, fled with her court to Dubrovnik. - This statement shows that Prince Mihailo III was of Croatian ethnicity.

So, please, help prove my case. Thanks again. --Crna Gora 00:09, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I will. (At least, I'll try) Thanks again. --Crna Gora 00:16, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Explanation

Here, I'll try to be as brief as I can.

Goynik's son is none other than Peter Goynikovic, he is of the House of Vlastimirovic (Viseslavic?) and that alone is solely the fact itself. The argument that he was AFAIC Predimir are nothing but a theory, that I myself (from a professional Original Research) do not approve - and it is very possibly false. The only outlying fact is that Doclea and Rascia literally shared almost no border and function as a single state - but Rascian rulers were always descendants (in many cases even subjected to) of Doclea's monarchs. It is known that every Princess (ahem, "Queen" - Predimir's wife Prechvala for example) of Doclea is rascian. I do not think that that is sourced from DAI - as I understand byzantine chronicler John Scylitzes (and he is popular for making funny non-intentional mistakes) mentioned the Doclean rulers frequently (including Predimir/Petar) as rulers of a larger unified Serbia (possibly emphasizing the fact that the main Serb dynasty in Rascia died-out, while that in the coastlands survived). Aside from that - the Croatian origin legend also remains a myth - just as it is said, that's a legend, expressed through a tale-ish work. No where is it ever said that Petar is the son of Trpimir - however, he is brother to the Croatian ruler Cresimir. Historians mostly explained this by the plain fact that the Arhcbishop of Antivari often in his Chronicles referred to Croatia (Dalmatia?) and Serbia (Rascia?) as brotherlands, and any ruler of one realm is the "brother" of the ruler of the other. However, the (must admit, small) serbo-croat school to which you referred, relies itself on the research that Petar Goynikovich spent his life in the Croatian Kingdom and that the Croatian Army brought him to power in Rascia as Grand Prince, with the new Serb confederate state being subjected to Croatia, but in truth, independent (because the two countries functioned as America and Canada today). It is also known that prince Peter Goynikovic pobratimio with the Croatian ruler (which was typical for noble Serbs impressed by the much more advanced and superior Croat state back then in the early Medieval Ages - Prince Ceslav became the "brother" of the great King Tomislav). This is supported by the thing that Grand Prince Peter of Goynik ruled, among all the other southern dalmatian realms, Doclea...

Did I help? If you have any specific question, any at all, please don't be a stranger. Cheers. ;) --PaxEquilibrium 00:49, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Archont Petar and Petar Gojniković are two different people. Archont Petar was born in ca. 930. Petar Gojniković was born much earlier. Read this line from the House of Vlastimirović article: "Knez Petar Gojniković (son of Gojnik, grandson of Vlastimir), born ca. 870, ruled 892/3-917/8, captured by Bulgarians, died in captivity. " Those dates are nowhere close to of Archont Petar's. All I know for a fact is that Archont Petar died either during or after the 970s. So, please, don't put false facts in an article unless you do some research. Also, Archont Petar is also called Predimir and in some sources, I am finding the use of Predimir rather than Petar for Archont Petar. This should help. --Crna Gora 02:10, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Doing something about the ridiculous date autoformatting/linking mess

Dear Joy—you may be interested in putting your name to, or at least commenting on this new push to get the developers to create a parallel syntax that separates autoformatting and linking functions. IMV, it would go a long way towards fixing the untidy blueing of trivial chronological items, and would probably calm the nastiness between the anti- and pro-linking factions in the project. The proposal is to retain the existing function, to reduce the risk of objection from pro-linkers. Tony 01:06, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Gradovi i općine u Hrvatskoj

Na hr:wiki imaš članak popis svih gradova i općina složen po županijama ažuriran sa zadnjim NN koje se tiču ove teme. U popisu je navedena Škabrnja kao općina i kao naselje, iako je neki zovu i Škabrnje (a tako se u prijašnjim NN nazivala). Vodite se NN kao jedinim mjerodavnim.

Pozdrav

question on your emoticon edit from 2004 (yeah, I'm late to the party)

you added these emoticons to the emoticon page:

o/ or \o waving

o\ or /o scratching one's head

/o\ despair

\o/ joy

I was just wondering - did you add them because you had been using them / seeing them around and they weren't on the page, or did you make them up yourself? Because I've seen a few people in a particular fandom claiming that they "made up" the one for joy based on an actor doing it in an episode.

This is vague, but do you know / remember?
