Sock puppetry or other close relationship
Do you have a connection with User:DIREKTOR? I find it odd that both of you show up with the same Jews and Communism dispute. Jehochman Talk 16:14, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
- In any case, your account is blocked indefinitely, not for the sock or meat puppetry which is a strong possibility and also good grounds to block, but for tendentious POV pushing. The account will remain blocked until there is a discussion about how to prevent further recurrences. Please see this discussion and Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Jews_and_Communism and Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2014_March_14. Jehochman Talk 16:17, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
- Per assurances I've received on my talk page and an explanation from DIREKTOR, I have decided to unblock. Jehochman Talk 22:41, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
Ownership and battleground mentality
Yesterday I decided to give you a second chance because I didn't have time to assemble the diffs requested by TParis, and because other editors such as Pharos were calmly working to fix the article. The following diffs show inappropriate editing. [1][2][3][4][5][6] Should you accumulate more examples of a similar nature, you may be subject to a sanction. I strongly recommend that you avoid Jews and Communism or if you choose to continue editing there, you would help yourself greatly by following a 0RR rule. If you see an edit you don't like, calmly and politely explain why on the talk page, and wait for the other editor to respond. Try to allow others to make changes even if you disagree. I predict that some editors are going to be banned as a result of this conflict. If you follow my advice, you won't be one of them. If somebody else decides to behave badly--don't join them!

Your username
Hate to say it but I have to suggest we change our usernames a bit, or else this offensive nonsense isn't likely to stop. I've applied to usurp "Director". -- Director (talk) 06:57, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
- Looks like it. I'll file a request for a name change to put these shenanigans to rest. --◅ PRODUCER (TALK) 12:26, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
- Your username has been changed; thanks. Be sure to use the new one when you log in from now on; if you have any devices that log you in automatically, you'll have to log out then log in again with the new username. Keep in mind that this rename is local only; your accounts on other wikis (like Commons, for example) are still attached to your old PRODUCER SUL. To reattach them, you'll have to go to each wiki individually, ask for a rename from the 'crats there (or from the stewards if the wiki has no 'crats) and then merge the accounts into your new SUL. Thanks, Writ Keeper ⚇♔ 16:49, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up. --Potočnik (talk) 17:17, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you very much for doing that. It is quite helpful to eliminate the recurring suspicions which are reasonable, but incorrect. Jehochman Talk 20:10, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
- Bound to happen sooner or later, Potočnik! What the hell does that mean, something to do with a creek? Peacemaker67 (send... over) 11:59, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

I have started a discussion thread about this article at the "Copyright problems" noticeboard.[7] TFD (talk) 22:53, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. USchick (talk) 17:50, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
Sorry to hear about your retirement
G'day PRODUCER. Sorry to see you have decided to retire, as we have had a fruitful collaboration for a couple of years now. Good luck with the real world outside this "virtual" space. And, as we say down here, "don't give the bastards a fair go". Warm regards, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 10:55, 14 May 2014 (UTC)
Topic ban
I understand you've chosen to retire. However, should you decide to continue editing at any point, understand that the community has reached a consensus to enact a topic ban for you. You are topic banned from making any edits on any page on Wikipedia, with the exception of an appeal on WP:AN or Wikipedia:ARBCOM/requests, related to Jews or Communism. To be clear, these are two separate topics and this topic ban should not in any way be construed to only be applicable in topics about Jews and Communism together. This topic ban will last until removed by community consensus. Enforcement may be made by escalating blocks.--v/r - TP 19:51, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Precious again
Operation Bora
Thank you for quality articles for project Bosnia and Herzegovina, with a focus on history, Operation Bora and its people such as Dobroslav Jevđević and Pavle Đurišić, and for producing content by the "really pretty simple" rules - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

This account is my sockpuppet
This is to inform everyone that the serum is taking over again, and that my sock "Potočnik" may been seen roaming about the project. -- Director (talk) 13:55, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
- It happens. ;) [8] --Potočnik (talk) 14:50, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
Hello
Vozdra Potočnik! Thanks for report. It is fine for reporting this to an admin, but probably it would be much better to post it on ANI or elsewhere. --Munja-x86 (talk) 12:23, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
- I will copy your statement on SP investigations then. --Munja-x86 (talk) 16:01, 9 May 2015 (UTC)
Josip Broz Tito
Hi, can you please join the discussion on the article about Josip Broz Tito. There has been a development by some users, you can say a joint endeavor, to change the lede of the article. They are calling for some insane ideas like that the lede is too long or that every sentence has to be cited. That is crazy. All help is welcome. Tnx in advance. :) --Tuvixer (talk) 12:00, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

Deception, etc
I wish you had pinged me. I have (unfortunately) quite an experience with Bosnian extremist sockpuppeteering manipulators :) Surtsicna (talk) 10:44, 28 June 2015 (UTC)
Ban appeal
I appealed my topic ban (diff). Taking in consideration that we were involved in disputes in past I would like to inform you that I appealed my ban so you could again present your opinion. All the best.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 07:06, 9 August 2015 (UTC)
