Moment[edit]

Hi. Do you have any data/info to add to Moment (Bucharest)? I can't find anything. --Soman (talk) 18:56, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And do you own any records by Johnny Alexutzzu? Apparently he is all the rage. Mindy Dirt (talk) 20:15, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Pardon me for butting in. This is an interesting topic. Snippets from Google Books tell me it was published by Alfred Hefter, weekly or daily (I found both). Hefter had a funny French accent, and the paper was published also in Geneva and other places, so it sounds like an interesting expatriate kind of activist publication. I moved it to Le Moment, as suggested by the hits I got on Google Books. Mindy Dirt (talk) 20:29, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, with the Adevarul link I was able to source Hefter as the head of the party. --Soman (talk) 08:40, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think there's a Did You Know in here somewhere? You're the expert... Mindy Dirt (talk) 14:46, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sergey Mavrody[edit]

Hi Biruitorul, I think your suspicions were well placed at the AfD for Sergey Mavrody. The keep votes most likely came from paid editors. They were contracted on Elance, as you can see here. And it looks like the same Elance user is looking to buy more keep votes, as seen here.115.187.74.73 (talk) 19:32, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Freemasons by nationality cats[edit]

Just FYI, there is a reason we have a Freemasonry WikiProject, and you would have been able to save yourself a lot of time had you asked about this first. All these nationality cats were CfDed as overcat quite a while ago, and I would imagine at some point they're going to be CfDed again, so you've potentially wasted a lot of time doing that.

Leonard Oprea[edit]

Hi, User:Drmies suggested that you might be a good resource to help verify some non-Englishes sources that might be useful in determining some sourcing issues for the above article (and also perhaps communicating with the creator/editor/subject(?) whose primary language is not english. Thanks for your considerations!-- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 01:43ard, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

Salut

I really don't want to go into a dispute, but I think that your recent deletions of the stuff I inserted were not justified. I was actually waiting for you to insert at least "Domenii interzise" in the article. I though that the reason for non-inclusion was that it wasn't listed in worldcat, but now I can't see a reson for deleting my addition as the mistake has been corrected in worldcat and now it is listed there as well as in numerous sources, even in those brought by you. And what is wrong with mentioning literary prizes he received in the early 80's? He lives in Auburn, Maine, and as indicated in the talk by User: Justice007 in the introduction of the article there is no need for references, but this is where he lives. In the article that you replaced this was mentioned, as well as his previous residence in Boston. Another issue (and a very important one) is the series of Theophil Magus books he published in the United States. They are listed in world cat (with some minor mistakes). They are mentioned (although not specifically) in the article from Auburn Sun that I brought as reference for residence in Auburn. This is an author who published through X-Libris as a way to get established in the US. The Wikipedia policies mention this exact case as an example that you can use self-published sources if the author also has other publications from other regular sources. This is a BLP and it has an impact in the subject's life, you can't just dismiss the work he has done in the last 10 years just because he published in X-Libris and the appreciation (from very notable people) is on the back cover. Please let me try to complete the edit and then you can adjust it if you are not happy. This guy was punished enough by the Securitate, he shouldn't have a hard time on Wiki as well. And what's wrong with the photo? Looking forward for your comments.Sensei2004 (talk) 04:06, 2 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

About Romanian communes and villages[edit]

I see you delete my edits from Padeș commune. Can you tell me what is the politics of this wiki? Gexge79 (talk) 21:05, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK, agree with you about villages problem, but how about the corect romanian diacritics - Ș and Ț (the other 3 ones are good, Ă, Î and Â). Can you make a bot to replace the bad diacritics with the good ones like on ro.wiki? Gexge79 (talk) 22:18, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I want to make some improvements to romanian communes from Gorj County articles. That's why i asked your advise with the diacritics, because i will try to reedit using Ș and Ț. Can you give me some more advices about how to rename artices etc.? Gexge79 (talk) 11:00, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weitzer railmotor and ACsEV[edit]

Hi Biruitorul, you*ve shown your finger and I catch your hand ;-)

You can't only improve the style and orthography of my texts. I think, you are predestinate to complete the contence of these articles:

How many of the ACsEV railmotors have been taken over by CFR?
How long were they in service?
Did even one or two of them "survive"?

And perhaps you can write something in ro.wiki.

Have a nice 2013!--Ulamm (talk) 22:31, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your deletion of the update on the nonconstitutionality of the Hungarian electoral law[edit]

I have restored (once) the update of the Hungarian Constitution page, adding the latest developments ("Temporary Provisions" in the Constitution struck down as unconstitutional by the Constitutional Court). But I have no intention of getting into an edit war. These Temporary Provisions were not only (1) found unconstitutional, but several (2) had a bearing on the electoral laws and freedom of speech, and hence on the (3) chances of opposition parties ever getting back into power (let alone (4) ever achieving the Supermajority that would be needed to overturn the new constitution). If this fact -- and the fact that as of April the Constitutional Court will be dominated by appointees of the current government (as will all judicial appointments), again thanks to constitutional changes they have used their Supermajority to enshrine in the constitution -- is not regarded as pertinent to the WP page on the Hungarian Constitution, it is not clear what fact is. Pertinent too is the fact (reflected in my heading change, which you also deleted) that the constitutional revision of 1989 was not a minor non-event in the history of the Hungarian Constitution, and that many in the opposition (and abroad) consider the 1989 constitution to be a far more democratic document than the current one. -- As to whether the conclusions of the international constitutional-law scholar and Hungary specialist, Professor Kim Lane Scheppele, are "alarmist" or a justifiable and important warning about the ongoing developments in the country, don't you think it would be better to let history judge? --Stevan Harnad 15:05, 7 January 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harnad (talk • contribs)

300th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty[edit]

Hi Biruitorul - Thanks for reaching out to me. You're right, we need an article on the 300th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty so I've started it. Looks like the ru wiki article is very comprehensive, but, though I learned it as a child, my Cyrillic translation these days is terrible. I'll start looking for en language refs to expand this article. In the meantime, how are your Cyrillic translations skills? :) --Rosiestep (talk) 02:37, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Răşinari[edit]

Hi. Why did you delete the list of natives? Did you even read it? Răşinari is just about Goga and Cioran? John Ilcuşu was Ministry of Defence, isn't that notable native? With what was Cioran for example more important? Just different domain. Both notable people born in the commune! This just pissing me off. Because of users like you we are just losing this info. You don't find it in online newspapers.

Crezi ca detii adevarul dar numai greseli faci. Doar fiindca n-au pagina pe Wikipedia in limba engleza sau chiar pe cea in limba romana, nu inseamna ca nu sunt notabili.

Daca esti impotriva romanilor, discutam altfel. Te rog sa iti revizuiesti atitudinea. Nu mai ingreuna munca noastra. In cele mai multe cazuri nu ai avut dreptate.

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion[edit]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute in which you may have been involved. Content disputes can hold up article development, therefore we are requesting your participation to help find a resolution. The discussion is about the topic Liana Alexandra.

Guide for participants

If you wish to open a DR/N filing, click the "Request dispute resolution" button below this guide or go to Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/request for an easy to follow, step by step request form.

What this noticeboard is:

It is an early step to resolve content disputes after talk page discussions have stalled. If it's something we can't help you with, or is too complex to resolve here, our volunteers will point you in the right direction.

What this noticeboard is not:

It is not a place to deal with the behavior of other editors. We deal with disputes about article content, not disputes about user conduct.
It is not a place to discuss disputes that are already under discussion at other dispute resolution forums.
It is not a substitute for the talk pages: the dispute must have been discussed extensively on a talk page (not just through edit summaries) before resorting to DRN.
It is not a court with judges or arbitrators that issue binding decisions: we focus on resolving disputes through consensus, compromise, and explanation of policy.

Things to remember:

Discussions should be civil, calm, concise, neutral, and objective. Comment only about the article's content, not the other editors. Participants who go off-topic or become uncivil may be asked to leave the discussion.
Let the other editors know about the discussion by posting {{subst:drn-notice}} on their user talk page.
Sign and date your posts with four tildes "~~~~".
If you ever need any help, ask one of our volunteers, who will help you as best as they can. You may also wish to read through the FAQ page located here and on the DR/N talkpage.

Please take a moment to review the simple guide and join the discussion. Thank you! CarrieVS (talk) 13:02, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Whack!
You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know you did something silly.

"rather amusing to see a day-old account with a couple dozen edits ... an editor with just about 100,000 edits across thousands of articles over the last nearly seven years".

Not as amusing as it is to see that experienced editor releasing a tirade of irrelevant comments about that day-old account in what's clearly a heated topic. That editor ought to know better. And as for shoehorning Israel-Palestine into an unrelated discussion...

If this dispute should resurface on the article's talk page, and if you decide to participate in the discussion, keep on topic, keep your cool, and whatever he says, try and resist the urge to rise to it. If you stay calm and discuss what's relevant, it makes it easier for him and anyone else to do the same, but if you escalate, so will he. There is far too much vitriol on that page already.

I do realise that can be a tall order, but come on, Israel-Palestine? What exactly was that supposed to solve? Don't answer that. And I'm not suggesting it's all on your head, either: I have two trouts to dispense today.

As for the suggestions of who the user in question is, there are appropriate places to take that. CarrieVS (talk) 16:53, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Liana Alexandra[edit]

Who are you?[edit]

Who are you? You are in connection with this?--Phorion (talk) 05:35, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If Phorion really does stay out of it, there's probably no point in trying to do anything. But if he continues behaving like this something needs doing. Far from acceptable. I don't know what the proper procedure would be, but I'll certainly back you up if it comes to asking for sanctions or something - though the comments would speak for themselves, I would imagine. CarrieVS (talk) 10:04, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Liana Alexandra edit war[edit]

I see we have a remarkably new editor wanting to add the same link that Phorion did. I have two questions:

Can we be sure it's a sockpuppet? How would you find out?
Did you know that you've broken 3RR? (Phorion and the new guy between them are either at 3, or have broken it too - not certain whether re-adding that reference counts - assuming they are the same person.)

CarrieVS (talk) 18:34, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I see he's linked to a page about Serban Nichifor as being himself - that was the guy you figured Phorion was, right? If you're right that Phorion has edited under the account names you said, it looks fairly damning. CarrieVS (talk) 18:41, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Buna seara, Stimate Domn Biruitorul. Va scriu in limba romana, deoarece am vazut ca sunteti roman. Sunt compozitorul Serban NICHIFOR, Conf.Univ.Dr. la Universitatea Nationala de Muzica Bucuresti. Mai multi prieteni din USA si din Romania mi-au semnalat faptul ca pagina in limba engleza dedicata sotiei mele LIANA ALEXANDRA a suferit in ultimul timp multiple modificari. Va sunt recunoscator pentru tot ce ati sintetizat in articolul pe care i l-ati dedicat si va rog sa imi spuneti daca este posibil ca pe aceasta pagina sa apara si lista lucrarilor elaborate de ilustra compozitoare (laureata a unor importante premii nationale si internationale) care a fost sotia mea, prematur si tragic disparuta. Va pot pune oricand la dispozitie toate documentele informative necesare. Precizez faptul ca toate creatiile ei sunt in prezent pastrate la Biblioteca Academiei Romane si va pot trimite actele oficiale in acest sens. Totodata mentionez si faptul ca nu sunt familiarizat cu procedurile specifice Wikipedia - si imi cer scuze daca interventia mea nu este conforma acestor proceduri.

Hi Biruitorul. You have asked for more sources, what do you mean? Do you want me to add links for each concert/festival which took place in Cluj-Napoca? The only one which is not official (yet, will probably be this week) in that list is the Sting concert, to which I have added a source which links to his number one fansite where the concert is listed this year.

‎Biruitorul, you deleted the following direct quote from Princeton University international constitutional law scholar and Hungary specialist Kim Lane Scheppele saying "how about waiting until the amendment actually passes, and then using a source that isn't alarmist soapboxing?"

I re-instated it, and Koertefa re-deleted it.

Do you and Koertefa consider writings by constitutional law scholars to be soap-boxing?

In whose interest is it to suppress scholarly analysis and criticism of a proposed constitutional mega-amendment with enormous consequences until after it has been passed by a government with the supermajority sufficient to have passed the constitution itself plus every one of hundreds of subsequent amendments in the ensuing years?

In March 2013, Princeton University international constitutional law scholar and Hungary specialist Kim Lane Scheppele writes^[2]:

"[T]the government is… introducing into the Parliament a 15-page constitutional… mega-amendment... a toxic waste dump of bad constitutional ideas, many of which were introduced before and nullified by the Constitutional Court or changed at the insistence of European bodies. The new constitutional amendment (again) kills off the independence of the judiciary, brings universities under (even more) governmental control, opens the door to political prosecutions, criminalizes homelessness, makes the recognition of religious groups dependent on their cooperation with the government and weakens human rights guarantees across the board. Moreover, the constitution will now buffer the government from further financial sanctions by permitting it to take all fines for noncompliance with the constitution or with European law and pass them on to the Hungarian population as special taxes, not payable by the normal state budget.

"For good measure, the mega-amendment adds a new and nasty twist. It annuls all of the decisions made by the Court before 1 January 2012 so that they have no legal effect. Now, no one in the country – not the Constitutional Court, not the ordinary courts, not human rights groups or ordinary citizens – can rely any longer on the Court’s proud string of rights-protecting decisions...

"The amendment reverses virtually all of the concessions that the government has been forced to make over the last year, and it provides further evidence that Prime Minister Viktor Orbán recognizes no limits on his power."

re: Poverty in Poland[edit]

Thanks.

Ovidiu Raetchi[edit]

Iti respect decizia de a reduce articolul dar ai scos cateva informatii importante din articol si nefiind la fel de experimentat ca tine as vrea sa stiu de ce. Ma refer la faptul ca Raetchi este reprezentantul romanilor din Orientul Mijlociu-Africa, nu din diaspora, asa cum ai generalizat; ai scos denumirile cartilor sale; si partea in care se specifica relatia cu tarile arabe: faptul ca este presedintele grupuluui parlamentar de prietenie cu tarile arabe sau ca sustine opozitia siriana. ai scos denumirile integrale ale comisiilor parlamentare si informatia referitoare la iq-ul, limbile vorbite si faptul ca a incercat sa popularizeze teologia. toate acestea aveau surse si sunt verificabile fara a pune cumva in pericol neutralitatea articolului. Inteleg insa decizia de a exclude rubrica de controverse, aceasta fiind poate neenciclopedica. Sunt destul de nou intr-ale wikipediei dar as vrea sa contribui cu articole in continure, motiv pentru care, pentru a invata, te rog sa imi detaliezi putin motivele care te-au facut sa iei decizia asta.

Pagina in limba engleza a pianistului Ferdinand Weiss[edit]

Buna ziua. Am vazut ca ati editat pagina in limba engleza a pianistului si profesorului Ferdinand Weiss, creata de mine cu o zi inainte. As dori sa inteleg de ce modificarile aduse de dumneavoastra au prioritate inaintea felului in care am inteles eu sa editez acest articol. Exista vreo anumita ierarhie in ce priveste autoritatea contributorilor? Faptul ca am editat un singur articol ma face mai putin relevant pentru wikipedia decat o persoana care se ocupa regulat cu editarea de articole? - Mai concret m-ar interesa de ce ati elimiat de pe pagina referintele la inregistrarile pianistului Weiss postate pe youtube? Am citit regulile si nu inteleg totusi motivul, cu atat mai mult cu cat astfel de linkuri sunt prezente pe multe pagini wikipedia. - Ce anume va spune ca Ferdinand Weiss trebuie sa faca parte din categoria "Romanian Jews"? - In ce sens va deranjeaza formularea "well-known pianist" atata timp cat este adevarata? - de ce considerati articolul ca fiind lipsit de referinte atat timp cat exista atat citate si referinta spre sursa lor, cat si alte surse de informatie in "Further reading" Va multumesc anticipat pentru un raspuns promt. Rares Micu — Preceding unsigned comment added by Raresoft (talk • contribs) 21:57, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Va multumesc pentru raspunsul prompt. Am inteles acum ratiunile care au dus la modificarile facute de dumneavoastra. As vrea sa va intreb ce anume ar trebui sa modific concret la capitolul "Artistic career" pentru a putea elimina flag-ul "refimprove"? Sursa informatiilor enuntate in acel capitol este Memoriul de activitate depus la Academia de Muzica Gherorghe Dima din Cluj-Napoca, mentionat in capitolul "Further readings". Ar fi o solutie includerea sa ca capitolul referinte? S-ar putea sa fi facut eu o confuzie intre capitolul Bibliografie si "Further reading" sau "References". Dupa aceasta imbunatatire, pot elimina flagul "refimprove"? Va multumesc din nou anticipat.

Unirea[edit]

ACUM ORI NICIODATĂ!

Duminică, 24 martie, ora 14:00, în fața Universității Alexandru Ioan Cuza din Iași, ne întâlnim pentru a sărbători unul dintre cele mai importante momente din istoria contemporană a României, revenirea Basarabiei alături de Țara Mamă.

Anul acesta se împlinesc 95 de ani de la Unirea Basarabiei cu România (27 martie 1918). Ieșenii întotdeauna au fost alături de frații lor de peste Prut. Să arătăm încă o dată acest lucru și să cerem revenirea Basarabiei acasă! Viitorul Unirii sta în noi. Vom reuși doar dacă arătăm că suntem o forță!

Pentru mine, pentru tine, pentru noi, ne vedem cu toții duminică pentru a arăta ca UNIREA E VIE!

Manifestația este organizată de Platforma Civică „Acțiunea 2012” alături de alte organizații care susțin UNIREA. Marșul va porni din fața Universității Alexandru Ioan Cuza, vom coborî bulevardul Carol I, apoi mica străduță Lăpușneanu pentru a ajunge în punctul final - Piața Unirii.

Hungarian Constitutional Amendments, International Criticism, and POV Neutrality[edit]

For a neutral POV on an important ongoing international development like the new Hungarian constitution, its amendments, and the international criticisms of the constitution and its amendments, it is not sufficient to summarize the government's view and simply state that there has also been international criticism. The summary of the government's points have to be balanced with a summary of the points being made by the critics. Editors can elaborate the summaries if they wish, but please refrain from deleting the summaries of the other side. Stevan Harnad Harnad (talk)

Biruitorul: I wrote a balanced summary of the recent amendment to the Hungarian constitution: one paragraph of description, one of criticism.

Harnad: The summary is unfortunately far from balanced. It states the Hungarian government's point of view and allows that there were some points of controversy. The substance and evidence behind the points of controversy is left out. Those missing substantive points are exactly the ones Professor Scheppele made -- most recently at the Washington Helsinki Commission Hearing in Washington last week^[3]. And those are the points Biruitorul keeps deleting, even though, word for word, they are no longer than his pro-governnment summary. I first posted the points as a direct quote. Then the objection was against long direct quotes instead of summaries, so I replaced them by a light paraphrase. Then that was deleted too.

Biruitorul: Given the size of the rest of the article, I think this is an appropriate dimension. Also, this is not that significant of an event - yes, it's important, but it isn't, as Harnad claims, an "important, ongoing historic event... gaining more and more attention and weight worldwide". With all due respect, the last time anyone really cared about internal developments in Hungary was the Ajka alumina plant accident.

Harnad: I think the daily growing international press attention, EU and US governmental attention and academic attention to the new Hungarian constitution is ample evidence that there is indeed worldwide concern about internal developments in Hungary.

Biruitorul: I vociferously object to the inclusion of the blog post in question. For one, no matter how many times Harnad repeats the phrase "International constitutional scholar and Hungary specialist, Professor Kim Lane Scheppele", that does not automatically mean we should be quoting her. And it's slightly misleading to say the comments appeared on "Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman's New York Times Blog"; there is Paul-Krugman-as-economist, and there is Paul Krugman-as-politically-opinionated-individual, and it's the latter who mainly runs the blog. The comments are partisan in tone, they are on a blog (i.e., not peer reviewed), they are editorial content - in short, they are not relevant to the topic.

Harnad: Professor Scheppele's analysis has also been presented to Senator Cardin's Committee (last week) and is now published in the record of the US Helsinki Commision^[4] (Critiques by others have also been published in the official working documents of the European Parliament^[5]^[6]^[7]^[8] and by the Venice Commission on Hungary^[9].)

Biruitorul: And I'd like to point out that Harnad has spread around the exact same blog quote at Second Cabinet of Viktor Orbán, Politics of Hungary, Constitutional Court of Hungary, Fidesz, Viktor Orbán and, most ludicrously, given that it covers 2000 years, History of Hungary.

Harnad: I don't know what WP policy is about information that is pertinent to multiple articles. Cross-referring might be a solution, but I think the passages are short enough so it is more useful and informative to include them at the appropriate point of each of these articles. (And, yes, I would say that the Hungarian constitutional controversy is pertinent to the history of Hungary too. It would be good to hear other views on that, though. Please let's keep the question of whether the critiques of the new Hungarian Constitution should appear in the article about the new Hungarian Constitution separate from the question of what other articles they should also appear in.)

Biruitorul: Does Kim Lane Scheppele (note the red link) really have to be mentioned in all those articles? I happen to care about the article on the Constitution the most because I wrote it (and no, I'm not claiming I own it, but it's natural I should care), but this should be addressed. Harnad's strong feelings on the topic shouldn't be making a soapbox out of a whole spectrum of articles. - Biruitorul ^Talk 16:17, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Harnad: Biruitorul may have written most of the Constitution of Hungary article, but a new Hungarian Constitution has been written recently, and an internationally controversial one. And, yes, Professor Scheppele ^[10] ^[11] ^[12] ^[13] is probably today's foremost expert on international constitutional law and the new Hungarian Constitution. Why on earth should the summary of the main points of her critique -- now being consulted and discussed worldwide -- be deleted from the WP article about the Constitution of Hungary? --Stevan Harnad 01:06, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion[edit]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute in which you may have been involved. Content disputes can hold up article development, therefore we are requesting your participation to help find a resolution. The thread is "Constitution of Hungary".

Guide for participants

If you wish to open a DR/N filing, click the "Request dispute resolution" button below this guide or go to Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/request for an easy to follow, step by step request form.

What this noticeboard is:

It is an early step to resolve content disputes after talk page discussions have stalled. If it's something we can't help you with, or is too complex to resolve here, our volunteers will point you in the right direction.

What this noticeboard is not:

It is not a place to deal with the behavior of other editors. We deal with disputes about article content, not disputes about user conduct.
It is not a place to discuss disputes that are already under discussion at other dispute resolution forums.
It is not a substitute for the talk pages: the dispute must have been discussed extensively on a talk page (not just through edit summaries) before resorting to DRN.
It is not a court with judges or arbitrators that issue binding decisions: we focus on resolving disputes through consensus, compromise, and explanation of policy.

Things to remember:

Discussions should be civil, calm, concise, neutral, and objective. Comment only about the article's content, not the other editors. Participants who go off-topic or become uncivil may be asked to leave the discussion.
Let the other editors know about the discussion by posting {{subst:drn-notice}} on their user talk page.
Sign and date your posts with four tildes "~~~~".
If you ever need any help, ask one of our volunteers, who will help you as best as they can. You may also wish to read through the FAQ page located here and on the DR/N talkpage.

Please take a moment to review the simple guide and join the discussion. Thank you! CarrieVS (talk) 12:50, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ion Jinga Biography[edit]

Hi. I've realised that you have removed a section from my contribuiton to the Ion Jinga biography with reference to a possible BLP issue or vandalism. I am still trying to familiarize myself with the wiki guidelines and I have modified the text. I am quite familiar with the particular issue and I feel that the contribution is incomplete as it is at the moment. I am thus adding a reviewed text. Please, if I do not follow the BLP guidelines to the letter feel free to modify my section but please do let me know which element I need to improve upon as I love the way in which wikipedia works and I am really trying to do my best. I am also quite informed about the story and I would hope to contribuite to it in order to make it both complete and comprehensive for the readers. Thank you for your review and potential future comments.

I have difficulties understanding why you refuse to be uptodate in questions related to Romanian history.

Thanks for uploading File:Copley statue.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Aesop Dekker, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Being or having been member of a notable band indicates importance/significance. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 03:03, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Soimus back and forth[edit]

This thing with the soimus link, you removing and me reading it, is somewhat infuriating to me, because I legitimately think that link is relevant, I don't know if you have actually visited the website, but it has data on it relevant to Soimus on it. I tried to generate a discussion about it on the talk page, but you wouldn't respond, and would just remove the link without saying anything. and of course now you threatened to report me, it is all very passive aggressive. I would far rather have a civil discussion on the pros/cons, if you made a good argument as to why you think it is irrelevant then I would be swayed, but so far you have given no real justification for removing the link. Please lets have a debate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GrassHopHer (talk • contribs) 15:59, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Job[edit]

Salut,
știu că-ți place să ștergi pagini pentru lipsă de notabilitate... Ai putea să te uiți aici Wikipedia talk:Notability#Notability, am postat o listă de vreo 20 de biserici și moschee dubioase de prin Albania și Tunisia. IMHO, majoritatea din ele n-au ce căuta aici. Pe wikipedia română, luna trecută au fost șterse vreo 40 de articole de mănăstiri pentru lipsă de notabilitate (inclusiv cele mai renumite mănăstiri din Republica Moldova). Cred că și astea ar cădea sub incidența acestei reguli minunate) Deci, acolo unde am scris, mi s-a sugerat să etichetez articolele. Eu nu prea cunosc etichetele de pe enwiki, și cu engleza nu stau excelent. Ai putea să te uiți tu prin ele să vezi ce-i dânsele? Articolele astea sunt create de userul Dr. Blofeld. El are create peste 40000 de articole. Sunt încrezut că dacă te înfoi tu în articolele lui, vre-un procent din ele riscă să fie șterse)) Eu cred în tine. Baftă.

Japanese School in Bucharest[edit]

Hi! I'm not sure if PROD tags require you to notify the original author, but I would appreciate it next time if I was notified that one of the articles I started is being PRODed.

Secondly I have discovered that international schools tend to almost always have secondary sources, even if the international school doesn't cover high school level. In the case of Japanese School in Bucharest it probably only covers elementary and junior high. However at here. I'm looking into finding secondary sources in Japanese.

Also on the Romanian side I can imagine newspapers cover the school. Articles may be like "look what the Japanese do differently!" or "here's the practices of the international schools here." Some example articles:

Humaira, Ansari. "In this slice of Japan, a dash of Mumbai masala." (Archive) Daily News and Analysis (DNA). Thursday 12 June 2008.

Japanese School of Mumbai

Lyman, Rick. "THE JAPANESE WAY IN A QUIET NEW YORK SCHOOL, 463 CHILDREN OF JAPAN'S CORPORATE ELITE GET A PROPER EDUCATION." The Philadelphia Inquirer. April 22, 1988. C01 Features Daily Magazine. Retrieved on January 9, 2012.

The Japanese School of New York

White, Betsy. "School in Atlanta skips Saturdays Japanese youngsters here enjoy community instead." Atlanta Journal-Constitution. September 12, 1992. A7.

Seigakuin Atlanta International School

I wouldn't be surprised to see this kind of article from a Bucharest newspaper. WhisperToMe (talk) 19:14, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

While it's a good thing that you used AFD when you disagree with removing a PROD, I would have appreciated being notified. Anyway, the guideline for PROD is that ideally the article creator should be notified unless the article creator is no longer editing: Wikipedia:PROD: "The article's creator or other significant contributors should ideally be left a message at their talk page(s) informing them of the proposed article deletion, except for cases where contributors are no longer regarded as active editors on Wikipedia. This should be done by adding the (TWINKLE??)" tag - And AFD says that while it's not required the article creator may be notified: Wikipedia:AFD#After_nominating:_Notify_interested_projects_and_editors

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages[edit]

Thank you for your recent articles, including Octavian Smigelschi, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. This can help you too, as the WikiProject members will often defend your work from deletion and try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 16:01, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

He doesn't use the diacritic, nor do the sources. I admit that there may be Romanian sources out there that do use it for him or for others with the Raducanu name but (a) the man has spent more time in the UK than he ever spent in Romania and (b) doesn't COMMONNAME apply to Romanian people, as it usually does for Indian people? - Sitush (talk) 08:32, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Per the recent Comana, Giurgiu article edits, the following is how the article appeared as far back as June 2013 (see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Comana,_Giurgiu&diff=560355319&oldid=545029563):

Comana is a commune in Giurgiu County, Romania. It is composed of five villages: Comana, Vlad Ţepeş, Budeni, Falaştoaca and Grădiştea.

Comana monastery was founded by Vlad Ţepeş in 1461, and is possibly the site of his tomb. It was demolished and rebuilt from scratch in 1589 by Radu Șerban of Coiani, future prince of Wallachia. The new monastery measured 61 x 56 m and was fortified with a defensive walls and five towers. It was repaired in 1700 by Serban Cantacuzino, and again in the 18th and 19th centuries. The foundation of the original monastery by Vlad Ţepeş was only rediscovered in 1861, by Ioan Brezoianu, and by 1960 a separate village named for Vlad had sprung up, situated 4 km west of Comana.[2]

Also located in Comana municipality is Comana Nature Park.

1) Information on the Comana Monastery is provided in the June 2013 version of the article. Its deletion is not required by Wikipedia policy simply because a specific Wikipedia article exists for the Comana Monastery.

2) 3 photos of the Comana Monastery are present in the June 2013 version of the article.

3) The majority of English speakers throughout the world are NOT familiar with the Romanian language and its use of non-English punctuation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marrowstonia (talk • contribs) 03:11, 12 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

List of Swedish-speaking and bilingual municipalities of Finland[edit]

Hi Biruitorul,

Considering that you and I are both such active Wikipedia editors, I'm surprised that it has taken us this long to cross paths. I like the List of Swedish-speaking and bilingual municipalities of Finland you translated and had promoted to featured list status. Considering that it has been seven years since then and there has been little change to the article over that time, I thought that I would do some work on it. I've added images of the various municipal coats of arms and done some other cleanup work. I hope that you approve. I was wondering what you might think of expanding the list to include the municipalities of Finland in which Sami languages are official. These municipalities are already identified in the map included in the lead; all we would need to do would be to add the municipalities to the table and rename the article something like List of municipalities of Finland in which Finnish is not the sole official language. Your thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Neelix (talk) 19:45, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Biruitorul,

I'm glad you're interested in revisiting this article! Would you mind making the statistics changes to the lead? I feel like you know those numbers better than I do.

There must be a way to get around having to create a new section for the Sami entries. Perhaps we could rename the "Swedish-speaking percentage" column to "Percentage of population speaking official language other than Finnish". I feel like we can overcome the language code issue by getting rid of the codes; it's such a narrow table with so much space available that we might as well spell out "Monolingually Swedish", "Swedish majority, Finnish minority", "Finnish majority, Swedish minority", and "Finnish majority, Sami minority". What do you think?

I agree that the title you suggest is shorter than my suggestion, but I have two concerns: 1) I think that the title should be consistent with Municipalities of Finland rather than using the form "Finnish municipalities", and 2) "List of not..." sounds like an awkward construction to me. I would be glad for your further thoughts on this matter. It is good to be collaborating with you.

Hi Biruitorul,

Thank you very much for your flexibility with this article. I have made the changes I proposed, adding the Sami languages and restructuring the article accordingly. I am considering nominating the article for a Today's Featured List slot on the main page. Would you be willing to look over the article and see if anything else needs to be altered before I do so? I am particularly unsure about the percentages for the Sami minorities, whether or not the municipalities with Sami as an official language follow the same 8% or 3,000-speaker rules, and whether there is a more recent source than the 2011 one from which to derive the statistics. Your input on these matters would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

Neelix (talk) 17:18, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Biruitorul,

I greatly appreciate your updates to this article. I was wondering about the statement that Lohja is the only municipality to make use of the special provision; only 5.9% of the population of Helsinki is Swedish-speaking, so does Helsinki also make use of the special provision as well? I wanted to ask before I nominate the list for a main page slot, which I intend to do soon.

Neelix (talk) 21:03, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Biruitorul,

That makes sense to me. I have updated the lead of the article accordingly.

Neelix (talk) 23:24, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

a request[edit]

I saw that Talk:Arsen Mikayelyan (Armenian diplomat) was recently deleted, as orphaned talk page. I worked on half a dozen or so BLPs of public figures from Nagorno-Karabakh, a Caucasian region that claims to be an independent state, but which is only recognized by Armenia, and the dozen or so other unrecognized states.

I had come across a mass AFD, for about a dozen of these individuals, and before I weighed in, I complied with [[WP:BEFORE}], and concluded that while about half those individuals were totally unknown, the others were either marginally notable or were firmly notable.

I put in quite a few hours on those articles.

Anyhow, I saw that you had been the contributor who nominated the Arsen Mikayelyan article for deletion, back in November 2013. But there was no notice on my talk page that you made that nomination. That was puzzling, as the deletion policy recommends informing the contributor who started the article, and/or its major contributors, when one nominates an article for deletion.

Not everyone understands that complying with this advice is very important because our decision-making is supposed to be consensus-based. For the decision to be truly consensus based the nominator really needs to inform those who would likely want to defend the article. Specifically dis-including those likely to disagree with the nomination can trigger dark thoughts when those who worked on the article was deleted, without their being able to weigh in, in its defence.

I see you said Mikayelan's consulate was in a town of only 7,000. I didn't know that. For all I know, if I had participated in a discussion over deleting the article, at the afd, or on the talk page, I may have been convinced it should have been deleted?

Please understand that no good faith contributor wants to continue to make good faith mistakes. Not informing other contributors that they seem to be making a good faith mistake makes it very likely that they will continue to waste their time, and waste the time of other contributors, by making the same kind of mistakes in future. This is another very strong reason why nominators should follow the advice in the deletion policy, and inform article creators when they nominate their articles for deletion. Good faith contributors deserve the opportunity to learn when other contributors think they made a mistake. And, if it turns out that those with the concern had a point, they deserve the opportunity to learn from their mistake.

In this particular case, IF you were correct and Arsen Mikayelyan really didn't merit a standalone article, that would not preclude covering the individual as part of another article. Mikayelyan had not only served as an Armenian diplomat, but he served as a member of the Nagorno-Karabakh legislature, for the Free Motherland party. So, even if he didn't merit a standalone article, I suggest the proper closure would have been redirect to Free Motherland.

I checked your contributions from November 2013, to see if you told someone else that you nominated the article for deletion. I saw that you nominated many articles for deletion, and you didn't seem to ever leave the courtesy heads-up policy recommends.

My request to you is that you consider starting to inform other contributors as recommended by the policy. Geo Swan (talk) 21:45, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Quick fix[edit]

Can I ask you for a minor favor? This has a picture of Murafa and Mateevici's daughters. I am not using my regular computer, and it seems where I'm at there's a problem with even the most basic of image editors. If you have the time, could you perchance upload a version of it to commons, and link it in the Murafa article? Dahn (talk) 20:47, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Cold War[edit]

Hi Biruitorul, I saw you didn't agree with my edit on the Cold War. So I just want you to know that even though the Soviet Union did practice a form of democracy, It was limited compared to the US and saying that it was a rivalry between the capitalism and democracy doesn't add up since the US represented Capitalism and the Democracy in the Soviet Union was a far cry to be even regarded that it had a democracy. So I thought it would be better to Change Democracy to socialism in order to give the viewer a better notion of the Cold war, specially since its written in the introduction and the Cold war is globally known as a rivalry between the two world powers one (US) representing capitalism and democracy and the other (USSR) representing a socialist system and communism (Even if it had democratic contents).

Its mostly used in biblical stuff or in a different sentence (as in: there he was again, a wandering soul).

I like how your profile highlights your conflict of interest. Look, I realize you are from Eastern Europe or whatever, but you can't go stalking users, reverting edits with the edit summary "heh" just because you don't like them. The fact that you are trying to keep sentences like "communist totalitarianism vs. capitalist democracy" is a joke. Moreover so that you stalk me and revert my edits in the Jobbik article - even though the version which I reverted back to was the version which achieved consensus in the talk page, and the version you reverted back to was the work of some unregistered vandal without an edit summary.

Wookey Hole Caves[edit]

I have read with interest your update on this page. "The cave was first opened to the public by the owner Captain G.W. Hodgkinson in 1927 following preparatory work by Balch.[61] Three years later, John Cowper Powys wrote of them in the novel A Glastonbury Romance. Hodgkinson took offence at the portrayal of his fictional equivalent, initiating a costly libel suit.[63]"

Having looked at the Glastonbury Romance page, I can see no reference to the caves at Wookey Hole, and it would seem that the only connection is Captain Hodgkinson. I question, therefore the relevance of the update to this page. On a more minor note, your update indicates that Powys also wrote of Balch in his novel, but I can see no indication of that in the article. Langcliffe (talk) 09:48, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Warning For Vandalism[edit]

You recently vandalized the article "Ferdinand I of Romania" by deleting a big block of text supported by multiple reliable sources. Please refrain yourself from trying to import here on the English version of the Wikipedia the very bad practices of perpetrating and condoning vandalism, which are unfortunately still so customary among some Romanian administrators and users on the Romanian language version. Remus Octavian Mocanu (talk) 05:58, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@ Biruitorul. Don't waste your time explaining... I've already shown him on ro.wiki how part of his sources are unreliable, the problem of giving undue weight to viewpoint he artificially constructs by misinterpreting sources or making strange inferences, the absurdity of implying Ferdinand was a dictator and so forth. He's got a problem with Carol I, Ferdinand and Mihai and he's trying everything to bash them, instead of sticking to scientific consensus.--Mihai (talk) 13:57, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

With still no reply from you to my last interpellation here (other than using anew the delete button in the article), i have no choice but to request the help of administrators so that the sourced text I introduced and you removed repeteadly and for no reson is protected: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Edit_warring#User:Biruitorul_reported_by_User:Remus_Octavian_Mocanu_.28Result:_.29 Remus Octavian Mocanu (talk) 21:54, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Moldovans in Ukraine[edit]

The whole part with how they emigrated because of the Turks is not cited and likely the author's unverified opinion. We could try to push for its deletion but the fact of the matter is that 250,000 people declared themselves Moldovans and there will be resistance to that. I think the best way to approach this is the same as any other page on Moldovans. Present the fact that this 'ethnic identity' is contested. Best Dapiks (talk) 16:41, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

National Democratic Hungarian-Szekler Party[edit]

Hi Biruitorul. I saw that you created the Magyar Party (Romania) article, and the original version includes a line about the National Democratic Hungarian-Szekler Party (which I just created) taking part in the 1920 elections. According to my election handbook, the party isn't mentioned in that election (although it could be in the "others" that won four seats in total. I was just wondering what your source was, and whether you could possibly clarify if they did take part and if they won any seats. If so, could you also update the article with any other info you can find? Cheers, Number 5 7 22:03, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The award that the Iordan Chimet book got (or didn't get)[edit]

Hi, I see that you continue to delete what a reliable source says about one of Iordan Chimet's books winning an award at the National Book Fair in Los Angeles in 1974. When you deleted it the first time, you yourself admitted that Romania literara, a leading Romanian literary weekly, is a reliable source. I reintroduced the information because according to Wikipedia rules, "Editors may not ... remove sources' views from articles simply because they disagree with them" and "editors are not making judgments as to what is true and what is false, but what can be verified in a reliable source". When you deleted it the second time you commented "Well, that's not good enough" when I referred to WP:VNT. According to which rules do you continue to delete that particular information?

November 2014[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Adrian Năstase. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. --Diannaa (talk) 19:48, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Declined speedy[edit]

I've declined the speedy on Infected Rain. The big issue is that since they've performed at OST fest, that gives a slight assertion of notability. It's just enough to where it could possibly be contested, so I'm going to take it to AfD instead. I figure this way there will be an official consensus since the band slightly toes that vague assertion of notability line when it comes to speedy deletions.

Alexandra Mas,ce am vrut sa fac de fapt[edit]

Draga [[Biruitorul
nu pot sa nu ma abtin sa te intreb daca ai patit ceva la cutremur (eu stau la etajul 7 si m-am speriat tare,ma uitam la primul tau speedy deletion la articol cand a inceput batzaiala).
Stiu ca am facut ceva cam stupid dar am avut ideea sa public articolul ca sa vad ce opinii mai au si alti useri (cateodata din idei stupide iese ceva bun, doar daca nu incerci nimic nu gresesti).Sper ca nu te-am enervat prea tare,stiu ca articolul este in momentul de fata pentru deletion (oricum l-ar fi sters altii),dar eu as vrea sa mai continui sa lucrez la el,o fac din instinct,cred ca in timp Alexandra se va apropia de gradul de notabilitate cerut de wikipedia (Am vorbit cu Francis Paren si a spus ca in tomul 4 de la Art Nude Today va lua mai multe lucrari ale artistei.Si mi-a confirmat banuiala ca Alexandra are un viitor mare in arta).De asemenea o jurnalista franceza mi-a spus ca in 2 luni va apare un amplu articol despre Alexandra intr-o revista de domeniu.
Da-mi si mie te rog doua lamuriri tehnice:
- cum fac sa pun un articol sub urmarire (vreau sa urmaresc si eu un articol al unui user ,banuiesc ca il pui undeva intr-un watchlist).
- cum fac sa pun un comentariu cand fac o modificare la un articol.Acolo sus sub numele userului, cum ai facut tu de exemplu aici<< Adrian Năstase ‎ (could you perhaps do once a week? or once a month? that would help.)>>. Sper ca nu te superi ca m-am uitat prin contributiile tale,jos palaria ce mai.
Apropos,chestia asta cu Nastase e cea mai tare faza care am vazut-o.Userul asta considera wikipedia un fel de rampa politica(adica hai sa vedem cum il mai lovim pe Nastase.
Si ultima chestie in caz ca o sa mai te intreb cate ceva(mai bine te intreb pe tine decat pe Cullen care de abia imi raspunde),daca ai mai mult de 40 de ani sau mai putin (nu vreau sa fiu ireverentios in cazul in care aveti o varsta mai mare ca a mea) si cam din ce zona a tarii esti (eu sunt prahovean stabilit la Tulcea),
Un sfat amical:nu mai lucra atat de tarziu in noapte,nu e bine pentru sanatate crede-ma (oare se merita?) Ok,multumesc!

DYK for Nicolae Bălan[edit]

On 29 November 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Nicolae Bălan, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Romanian Orthodox bishop Nicolae Bălan went from being an Iron Guard supporter to working with his country's new Communist regime in suppressing the Greek-Catholic Church? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Nicolae Bălan. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

A kitten for you![edit]

The Moldova issue was very well summarized by you somewhere in a strange sandbox that belongs in a newspaper.

Mantra (restaurant)[edit]

I de-prodded this. There is an assertion of notability, as well as reviews from several reliable sources, and a short discussion of its impact in the neighborhood's gentrification. Bearian (talk)
