Thank you for taking the time to weigh in on my RfA. It was successful, in that the community's wish not to grant me the tools at this time was honored. I'm taking all the comments as constructive feedback and hope to become more valuable to the project as a result; I've also discovered several new areas in which to work. Because debating the merits of a candidate can be taxing on the heart and brain, I offer this kitten as a low-allergen, low-stress token of my appreciation. -- otherl left 12:43, 8 February 2010 (UTC) |

Thanks for sending me email about Kievan Rus. I am just starting the wiki editing and still learning. However, since I was born in Ukraine and live there fo many years, I know some about the history of this country. The Kiev has never been part Khazaria, but slavic population of Kiev paid money to Khazars in early 9th century before varangians arrive. The main source about russian history of that time is the The Russian Primary Chronicle ( http://web.ku.edu/~russcult/culture/handouts/chronicle_all.html) and the Chronicle says:
http://web.ku.edu/~russcult/culture/handouts/chronicle_all.html
6367 (859) The Varangians from beyond the sea imposed tribute upon the Chuds, the Slavs, the Merians, the Ves, and the Krivichians. But the Khazars imposed it upon the Polianians, the Severians, and the Viatichians, and collected a squirrel skin and a beaver skin from each hearth.
With Rurik there were two men who did not belong to his kin, but were boyars. They obtained permission to go to Constantinople with their families. They thus sailed down the Dnieper, and in the course of their journey they saw a small city on a hill. Upon their inquiry as to whose town it was, they were informed that three brothers, Kii, Shchek, and Khoriv, had once built the city, but that since their deaths, their descendants were living there as tributaries of the Khazars. Askold and Dir remained in this city, and after gathering together many Varangians, they established their domination over the country of the Polianians at the same time that Rurik was ruling at Novgorod
In fact Khazars and Rus was a bitter enemies all the time long until Rus king Svatoslav (grandson of varangian Rurik) totaly distroed the capital of Khazaria Itil.
Sviatoslav I of Kiev finally succeeded in destroying Khazar imperial power in the 960s. The Khazar fortresses of Sarkel and Tamatarkha fell to the Rus in 965, with the capital city of Atil following circa 968 or 969. A visitor to Atil wrote soon after the sacking of the city: "The Rus attacked, and no grape or raisin remained, not a leaf on a branch."
Most of russians would be really surprized (if not upset) when you tell them that Khazaria is predesessor of Kievan Rus. This does not make any sence since these many historical and poetical books about wars between khazars and early russians (see the main article about Khazars and Rise of Rus).
The Rus warlords Oleg and Sviatoslav I of Kiev launched several wars against the Khazar khaganate, often with Byzantine connivance.
Pushkin for example wrote a great poem about Rus second king Oleg war with Khazars. The Khazars (see main article) were a semi-nomadic Turkic people who was eventualy distroed by slavic Rus and other neigbors. Innab ( talk) 00:03, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
Innab ( talk) 04:06, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
The Rus' Primary Chronicle: [1]
6367 (859). The Varangians from beyond the sea imposed tribute upon the Chuds, the Slavs, the Merians, the Ves', and the Krivichians. But the Khazars imposed it upon the Polyanians, the Severians, and the Vyatichians, and collected a white squirrel-skin from each hearth.
6368–6370 (860–862). The tributaries of the Varangians drove them back beyond the sea and, refusing them further tribute, set out to govern themselves. There was no law among them, but tribe rose against tribe. Discord thus ensued among them, and they began to war one against another. They said to themselves, “Let us seek a prince who may rule over us and judge us according to the Law.” They accordingly went overseas to the Varangian Rus': these particular Varangians were known as Rus', just as some are called Swedes, and others Normans, English, and Gotlanders, for they were thus named. The Chuds, the Slavs, the Krivichians, and the Ves' then said to the people of Rus', “Our land is great and rich, but there is no order in it. Come to rule and reign over us.” They thus selected three brothers, with their kinsfolk, who took with them all the Rus' and migrated. The oldest, Rurik, located himself in Novgorod; the second, Sineus, at Beloozero; and the third, Truvor, in Izborsk. On account of these Varangians, the district of Novgorod became known as the land of Rus'. The present inhabitants of Novgorod are descended from the Varangian race, but aforetime they were Slavs.
...
With Rurik there were two men who did not belong to his kin, but were boyars. They obtained permission to go to Tsargrad with their families. They thus sailed down the Dnipro, and in the course of their journey they saw a small city on a hill. Upon their inquiry as to whose town it was, they were informed that three brothers, Kyi, Shchek, and Khoriv, had once built the city, but that since their deaths, their descendants were living there as tributaries of the Khazars. Askold and Dir remained in the city, and after gathering together many Varangians, they established their dominion over the country of the Polyanians at the same time that Rurik was ruling at Novgorod. ...
6378–6387 (870–879). On his deathbed, Rurik bequeathed his realm to Oleg, who belonged to his kin, and entrusted to Oleg’s hands his son Igor', for he was very young.
6388–6390 (880–882). Oleg set forth, taking with him many warriors from among the Varangians, the Chuds, the Slavs, the Merians and all the Krivichians. He then came to the hills of Kyiv, and saw how Askold and Dir reigned there. He hid his warriors in the boats, left some others behind, and went forward himself bearing the child Igor'. He thus came to the foot of the Hungarian hill, and after concealing his troops, he sent messengers to Askold and Dir, representing himself as a stranger on his way to Greece on an errand for Oleg and for Igor', the prince’s son, and requesting that they should come forth to greet them as members of their race. Askold and Dir straightway came forth. Then all the soldiery jumped out of the boats, and Oleg said to Askold and Dir, “You are not princes nor even of princely stock, but I am of princely birth.” Igor' was then brought forward, and Oleg announced that he was the son of Rurik. They killed Askold and Dir, and after carrying them to the hill, they buried them there, on the hill now known as Hungarian, where the castle of Ol'ma now stands. Over that tomb Ol'ma built a church dedicated to St. Nicholas, but Dir’s tomb is behind St. Irene’s. Oleg set himself up as prince in Kyiv, and declared that it should be the mother of Rus' cities. The Varangians, Slavs, and others who accompanied him, were called Rus'. Oleg began to build stockaded towns, and imposed tribute on the Slavs, the Krivichians, and the Merians.
So there is no way Oleg would "declare undependence from Khazars" since he was a Novgorod leader of Varangians and was never under control of Khazars.
Innab (
talk)
07:34, 9 February 2010 (UTC) Ok, I will agree to call Khazaria a "predecessor" in term of control of some territory that later came to make up Kievan Rus', but paying mandatory "tribute" did not mean that Kiev belonged to Khazaria as a full-right member city, it rather was wage of defeat. Chronicle said that "The Varangians, Slavs, and others who accompanied him, were called Rus". Khazarians was forced to withdraw from Kiev, and later been destroyed by Rus and other neigbours.
I think the caption speaks for itsself. :D -- Jack1755 ( talk) 18:43, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Hey Laurinavicius, I noticed your name on the copyeditor list. I wonder if I could beg a readover for Manitoba? I'm hoping to hit FAC within the next few weeks, but I've been editing mostly on my own for the last little while, so the article would greatly benefit from a fresh set of eyes. Let me know if there's anything I can do in return, and if you don't have the time right now, don't worry about it. Cheers, Nikkimaria ( talk) 01:33, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Hi - I found you on "Adopt A User", and need a little help. I'm writing a bio of a living person, Emmy Award Winner for Comedy Writing, Carol Burnett Show 1973, + 4 nominations, and various other noteworthy achievements. I have 17 bibliographic sources, and am down to footnoting which has me puzzled. Plus one or two other things to sort out. Would you be able to help?
I'm new here, and still don't know my way around, so if you could answer me on my talk page, it would be good. Thank you. Ahalani ( talk) 20:53, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for responding so quickly. Here's the story:
I access the Wiki guide http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Footnotes#nbFoot01b. One Kind of Footnoting Sample: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.[Ref 1] Amazingly few discotheques provide jukeboxes.[Ref 2] How razorback-jumping frogs can level six piqued gymnasts.[Ref 3] 1. ^ This is the lazy dog reference. 2. ^ This is the jukeboxes reference. 3. ^ This is the jumping frogs reference. I’m confused, because I’m used to footnoting college and research papers, MLA style. Which Wikiway do you find the easiest? And can you please explain it as though for a third grader?! Including notating them as you write the article. Because after this article, I plan others. Also, the subject of the article does not seem to have his birth date documented in any secondary or tertiary source. He gave it to me personally. What do I do? And – he co-produced and wrote the script for a Kennedy Center production, but the only documentation I have is the program which lists his credits. I plan to include an image of it that can be read. He does have a blog that tells his life story without his birthday, including his Emmy work & the Kennedy Center even among others. http://billangelos.typepad.com/my_weblog/ And he has documentaries on YouTube.
I have completed a short summary (about 6 short paragraphs) + Bibliography - 17 entries - that I could send you, but I didn't know if that's appropriate on a Talk Page. The footnoting is the last thing before I request review.
So please guide me, and thank you. Ahalani ( talk) 23:41, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

Hi -
In the Bridging Science, Philosophy and Cognition section, it reads thusly, and this is the full extent of the section:
In 1959, his wife Saral recommended to him a book she had seen in the library by the speaker on life subjects, Jiddu Krishnamurti. Bohm found himself impressed by the way his own ideas on quantum mechanics meshed with the seemingly-philosophical ideas of Krishnamurti. Bohm's approach to philosophy and physics receive expression in his 1980 book Wholeness and the Implicate Order, and in his 1987 book Science, Order and Creativity. Bohm and Krishnamurti went on to become close friends for over 25 years, with a deep mutual interest in philosophical subjects and the state of humanity.
This whole paragraph is a copy of the blurb describing these products for sale at the Krishnamurti bookstore, their website. If you want to check it out, you have to type in the title of one of these products. The full url below doesn't pull it up.

Isn't this against Wiki policy? Plus, no source is cited. Not only that, but the information is very incomplete, and misleading. I'm writing a replacement. But meanwhile, is there some kind of label or other action that can be taken to alert readers?

Hi,
I am Peter Godwin. People keep reverting my edits on my page. Here is what I wrote on the page as a warning- which they ignored. It explains the problem. I need to have control over strangers writing fiction about my life and career (they originally had me born in Germany- I was born in London and have never even lived in Germany- one example of many.) Please read this and direct me with an email contact or a phone number to someone in the Wiki legal department. We need to speak and resolve this. "WITHOUT PREJUDICE- I am Peter Godwin the singer to whom this page refers. I have verified everything here and will continue to edit this page until it is comprehensive and 100% accurate. The previous version was written by someone who does not know me and has never met me. Many of the facts and opinions expressed by that individual were factually incorrect and potentially libelous. They certainly had no verification from me, the subject of this page, nor from any authorized representative of me. If "Akerans" keeps reverting this page to the previous version, I will be obliged to pass this matter over to my lawyers. If any responsible agent of Wikipedia wishes to get in touch with me for verification of my identity, please email me through http://www.nuevomusic.com. I am very happy to be part of Wikipedia, but I cannot tolerate random strangers re-writing my life and career to their misinformed fantasy. I await your response.

Hi, I found the page on moving articles. No need to respond to the above. --NickStan 11:37, 6 June 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ngstanton ( talk • contribs)

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. – xeno talk 16:55, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
