Ah, sorry, I thought someone got it wrong and missed seeing Korine's name as a contributor on the liner notes of the album. Thanks for the information, I didn't realize they were friends and wrote the song together with Guy Sigsworth.

Dzieki, dobra robota :)-- Witkacy 00:47, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
Czołem! Sama idea takiego zdjęcia nie jest zła, choć ja osobiście uważam tabelkę za ważniejszą. Natomiast w przypadku Warszawy na pewno trzeba by się zastanowić, czy najbardziej charakterystyczną częścią miasta jest właśnie pajac - i to na tak kiepskim zdjęciu. Poza tym, jeśli rzeczywiście należy tam umieścić zdjęcie (choć wolałbym niżej), to trzeba też przesunąć tabelkę. Inaczej sam tekst na moim ekranie zajmuje ledwie 1/4 szerokości ekranu...
Tak czy inaczej - osobiście wolę tabelki, tak jak na setce innych stron o polskich miastach. Zdjęcie byłoby dobre, jeśli mogłoby coś powiedzieć o ogólnym wyglądzie miasta, co w przypadku Warszawy jest niemożliwe - mało jest miast na świecie z takimi kontrastami...

It's no more bad taste than including the birth and death in brackets as follows (April 7, 1979 - ). It's a standardised infobox template. I must disagree with you strongly. - Ta bu shi da yu 03:00, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
Hi. I placed the cleanup tag on Diva, as two things could be done to impove it. Either:
I prefer the first idea. It would look something like this:
Diva
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Diva is the Italian word for "goddess", etc, etc...
I feel this make the page much neater, and would help visitors to more easily find the meaning of "diva" they want. -- Daniel Lawrence 09:00, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
Hi. Just a quick note that we're voting (again) on renaming/moving the Lost (2004 television series) article, this time to the shorter Lost (TV series).

I created the page, with Niittymaki redirecting. A month or a little less ago, some people in the WP:Hockey project decided they did not want diacritics used on En.WP so they would move pages to illustrate their point to get a vote going... Anyways thanks for your support for diacritics on En.WP! Hazelorb 21:21, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
I am encouraged by your letter, "I object to this proposal," on Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (standard letters with diacritics), to bring your attention to User:Francis Schonken's proposal imminently to change Polish monarchs' names from the current correct renditions to his own versions. I think the proposed changes would be disastrous. logologist| Talk 10:52, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
I reworded the article, shortening sentences and putting her athletic achievements in order of the date they were won. I have moved birthplace and place of death out of the first paragraph, in accordance with Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies). Finally, I have added a more verifiable source into the External links section, for her 1962 bronze at 100m. Kind regards, Sliggy 23:57, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
I noticed when editing a page that uses Template:MedalTopEAA (European track and field (athletics) championships medal table top) that Template:MedalGold, Template:MedalSilver, and Template:MedalBronze have the undesirable side-effect of adding the page to an olympic medal category.
So I created new templates just for use in non-olympic contexts: Template:MedalGoldGeneric, Template:MedalSilverGeneric, and Template:MedalBronzeGeneric which don't do any adding to categories.
I went ahead and updated all the pages affected by this that I found linking to Template:MedalTopEAA, but I don't know about other non-olympic medal table contexts.
(This pertains to your edits on Linford Christie and Sebastian Coe, Baron Coe when you cleaned up the medal tables.) -- Mareklug talk 20:53, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
Hello. I don't think Template:BiathlonAt2006WinterOlympics belongs on the main page for biathlon at the 2006 Games, Biathlon at the 2006 Winter Olympics, that normally resides in the Category:2006 Winter Olympics events, but instead I think it belongs on the specific biathlon competition pages to allow for navigation among them: Biathlon at the 2006 Winter Olympics - Men's Individual, Biathlon at the 2006 Winter Olympics - Men's Sprint, Biathlon at the 2006 Winter Olympics - Women's Individual and the pages for the other 7, assuming they will be created one day, that populate Category:Biathlon at the 2006 Winter Olympics. I removed it but you restored it.
This is analogous to the situation already existing for Template:AlpineSkiingAt2006WinterOlympics -- the template is not featured on Alpine skiing at the 2006 Winter Olympics which is a member of Category:2006 Winter Olympics events but it is featured at each the 10 individual pages for the specific competitions that populate Category:Alpine skiing at the 2006 Winter Olympics.
Instead of using this navigation template to get to the individual competition pages from the sport's main page for biathlon or alpine skiing at the 2006 Games one uses the links in italics under the individual competition headings on the sport's main page; for example: Main article: Biathlon at the 2006 Winter Olympics - Men's Individual.
One problem with Template:AlpineSkiingAt2006WinterOlympics is that it was apparently designed for the sport's specific competition pages at the 2006 Games and automatically includes the page it is placed on within the sport's 2006 Games subcategory. But the main sport pages don't live within their individual event page subcategories but rather in Category:2006 Winter Olympics events one level up, except when templated like so and thus miscategorized. This is the case for all the main event pages for the 2006 Games.
Please let me know if you agree with the above -- I don't want to accidentally get into a revert war over this. The speed skating pages are another case of the same (the corresponding template needs to be removed from the main speed skating page for the same reasons). -- Mareklug talk 10:21, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Dear Marek: Hi! Thanks for the message letting me know about the category. I think it's a good idea, particularly because in boxing many people have died after a competition. Auto Racing should be another sport for which a similar category should be formed but aside from Auto Racing, we have had deaths during basketball and association football games but those are too few to have in a category.
It's sad when a person dies period, let alone in boxing where there is still room for improvement. Authorities just choose to ignore this in the name of the "green paper".
Thanks for your message and God bless you!
Sincerely yours, Antonio Chicago Hot Dog Martin
There was already a long discussion about the proper title for the city on the talk page. The problem is, everyone here just calls in San Jose, regardless of what the officials say.

There is a fundamental problem - AfD is not a vote, so counting the "opinions" was counterproductive. My job as an administrator was to evaluate the strength of the rationales, and unsurprizingly I was more impressed with the "Delete"s. I think the article is irretrievably and unencyclopedic, and I definitely don't think there was any consensus on those crucial issues, in other words, the 41 did a poor job rebutting the 18 - other than by their sheer number, which was not considered. Hope that cleared it up for you. - CrazyRussian talk/ email 13:20, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi, I just wanted to tell you that I’ve made some rather large additions to 2006 FIFA World Cup sponsorship and would appreciate if you could take a look at them and possibly reconsider your comment at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2006 FIFA World Cup sponsorship. I thought it was a worthy topic, even though it had a wretched article, so I added information about revenue and the sponsorship process, the sponsor related controversies of this World Cup (tickets distribution, Budweiser in Germany, Mcdonalds at a sporting event), and took out the copyvios. Please take a look. Thanks! Vickser 19:31, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

I am totally new at Wikipedia, so I don't know all the rules. However, 25 years as an editor and the backing of the Chicago Manual of Style along with other style guides and grammar books makes me pretty confident about commas after years in dates (i.e., "The game on July 9, 2006, went into overtime")--the comma before the year functions like a parentheses. Check out the Chicago manual's website. I've even seen the comma used on other Wikipedia sites. Btw, does Wikipedia have a style guide?
Also, what does rs linkspam mean? (I'm serious--I am a total neophyte.)—Preceding unsigned comment added by Chiaroscuro123 ( talk • contribs) 1 August 2006, 01:19 (CDT)

-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 08:43, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
Cześć. Widzę, że pozmieniałeś już trochę w artykule. Mam jednak pytanie: czy z języku angielskim można dopisać do twojego tekstu "a proposed union of cities" słowo "sąsiadujących" bądź "połączonych". Chodzi o to by to brzmiało jakoś tak - "planowany związek sąsiadujących ze sobą miast" bądź "planowany związek połączonych ze sobą miast". Dlaczego to takie ważne? Ponieważ na świecie intnieją związki miast, nawet oddalonych o siebie o kilkaset kilometrów (nie biorę tu pod uwagę partnerstwa miast tzw. miasta partnerskie, miasta bliźniacze). GZM z założenia ma nas zintegrować w jedną całość - związek/obszar miejski, aby jako jeden organizm walczyć o dotacje, zarządzać drogami, kanalizacją itp, promować ten jeden obszar, pozyskiwać dla niego inwestorów. Biorąc pod uwagę, że język angielski jest bardzo skromny (w porównaniu z j.polskim) i często wiele słów ma po kilka znaczeń oraz to, że są na świecie związki miast oddalonych od siebie, proszę o pomoc we wpisaniu tego o co tu poprosiłem. Pozdrawiam. LUCPOL 21:30, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
Hi Marek, This would not be me. You need to make a request to have the outline changed on Wikiproject Aircraft. We are trying to do a uniform outline. It was decided that we reduce the number of indentations in the table of contents. look at Boeing 757, 767, A330, A340, A310, 747-8, and many others and you will see it done there too.

I mały komentarz odnośnie twojej treści: "Hasla typu Aglomeracja, Polska beda zawierac poprawione wyliczenia/populacje nastepujacych aglomeracji na Slasku: katowickiej, rybnickiej, bielskiej i czestochowskiej" - a kto ci na to pozwoli? Zrozum, że twoje dane są z nierzetelnych źródeł, opisujących aglomerację z administacyjno-politycznego punktu widzenia. Sprawa GZW: GOP i ROW będzie jeszcze długo dyskutowana, sprawa aglomeracji częstochowskiej i bielskiej odpada już na samym początku. I proszę, używaj trochę inteligencji (to nie jest atak personalny), bowiem bezmyślne kopiowanie absurdalnych treści z internetu tylko dla zasady "lepsze to, niż prawda bez pisanych źródeł" jest patologią.

Artykuł trzeba zmienić:
LUCPOL 21:30, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
Achhh. Niestety zrobił się mętlik, i to nie mały. Teraz praktycznie każdy artykuł - GZW, GOP, ROW i GZM jest błędny. Po pierwsze: nie nadużywaj w artykułach słowa "metropolitan area", ponieważ to jest całkowicie błędne w stosunku go GOP i ROW. GOP i ROW to conurbation or/and urban area, natomiast metropolitan area można nazwać tylko GZW. Nie oczekuję od ciebie doktoratu z geografii, ale jeśli zajmujesz się takimi artykułami to powinieneś się na tym choć trochę znać. Sprawa druga: dlaczego zmieniłeś artykuł User:R9tgokunks? Wpisał on do ROW oznaczenie "industrial area", czy to jest błędne? W moim słowniku angielskiego oznacza to "przemysłowy obszar", co jest prawdą w przypadku ROW (choć w tym wypadku lepsze by było "coal area" etc). LUCPOL 11:39, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

I see you have a history of working on the article Five-octave vocal range. I am looking at it from the project Wikipedia:Unreferenced articles where it is one of the longest {{ unreferenced}} tagged articles that does not meet at least the barest minimum of verifiability. It has been tagged and completely without references since June 2006.

Here's the article in it's entirety (minus the <blockquote>s):
Jerzy Janowicz (born November 13, 1990 in Łódź, Poland) is a polish junior tennis player.
Mam poważne wątpliwości co do sensu tej twojej edycji. Mnóstwo portów lotniczych na świecie nie jest zlokalizowanych w samych miastach lecz poza administracyjnymi granicami danej miejscowości. Zauważyłem, że edytujesz artykuły związane z lotniskami, więc to co teraz napisałem jest dla ciebie znane. Dlaczego takiej edycji dokonałeś tylko przy porcie lotniczym Katowice-Pyrzowice. Dziwniejsze jest również to, że poprawiałeś również tekst o lotnisku krakowskim, a ten leży niedaleko Krakowa, w Balicach a tu takiej informacji że leży niedaleko Krakowa już nie napisałeś. Jeżeli nie zamierzasz napisać przy każdym porcie że nie znajduje się w granicach danego miasta to proszę o zmianę twojej edycji aby pisało po prostu o porcie katowickim (czyli tak jak było przed twoją edycją i tak jak ma port w Balicach).

I hope you have many friends who will support the view that Bosnia has not decided on recognising Kosovo's independence...because I think Avala will do an edit war here and claim that Republika Srpska represents Bosnia. This is total nonsense since the world recognises the government at Sarajevo--as the legitimate ruler of Bosnia. I first noticed that Avila said Bosnia does not recognise the independence of Kosovo and was puzzled until I saw the Serb Republika Srpska reference. It would have been better if a Wikipedia Admin got involved ASAP and stopped Avila's Serb POV's. It seems as if the Admins have fallen asleep today.

Mr. Mareklug, it was written in the article Kosovo: "Kosova" redirects here. For other uses, see Kosova (disambiguation). but that was and still is not the case as when I type Kosova it does redirect me to " Kosova (disambiguation)". The aforementioned sentence was deleted in the article today by user Husönd. So I would appreciate your help, Sir.

Hello Mareklug. Actually, I had left a message at Tocino's talk page asking him to refrain from being uncivil. I also left a message both at his talk page and at Talk:International reaction to the 2008 Kosovo declaration of independence reminding of the probation affecting all Kosovo-related articles. I believe that shall suffice for the restart of harmonious dialog. Anyway, I will refrain from banning any users myself, as it's preferable to have an uninvolved administrator to do it (I've been editing Kosovo-related articles frequently). Hopefully it won't be necessary. Regards, Hús ö nd 18:36, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
Hello Mr. Mareklug, contrary to a reached consensus there is a splitting going on instead a merging: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Kosovo#Split_completed And I would appreciate your assistance. Thank you! -- Tubesship ( talk) 04:56, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
I respect your opinion, but based on long discussions on talk page (note, not votes) and my understanding of NPOV I believe this is the best solution. If Kosovo were the article alloted for the Republic, people here would attempt to use it to legitimize their viewpoint that Kosovo is the Republic of Kosovo. The most obvious manifestations of this are people slapping an infobox onto Kosovo, or putting "Kosovo is a state", etc. This isn't fair to the Serb POV.
However, you are largely correct about the redundancy, and I am working to improve that. Superm401 - Talk 05:36, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Hi Mareklug. You're probably busy with the Kosovo articles and all, but if you have any time, could you please translate Makedonsko devojče into polszczyzna? I'd like to create an interwiki for it. Thanks in advance, Balkan Fever 05:43, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the tip, I've removed it. For one of the most popular Macedonian songs, it has quite a few sourcing problems :( .
I would like to apologies over my remark on Somaliland. I sympathies for partly recognised countries such as Kosovo. I believe in "If the majority of a country wishes to be independant" However I generally disagree with counties such as Somaliland as they have no recognition. So no change, therefore no point in supporting them. However if an organistion such as the African Union was to recognise Somaliland, my view and opinion would change, to recognition, as there has been significant chance. If such news does occur, please let me now. I am also pro British, Kosovo, European and Polish (Krakow is the best city i have ever visited) please let me know of any information. Apologies again, if you would like any support on any Kosovo dispute or anti Polish attack, please let me know as i will support your view/ opinion. Peace.

This is the current position of Macedonia on international reaction to the 2008 Kosovo declaration of independence:
Thanks for your note on the 'edit wars'. I can probably add back the comment on Cuba when it is unlocked. As a Canadian from Vancouver, I am neither Serb nor Albanian but I agree with my government's position that it is better to recognise Kosovo. The Kosovars have waited too long here. The question is whether the Asian and African states will slowly recognise the new situation or not? I personally don't think Cuba will recognise Kosovo but so far they have remained quiet--maybe Raul Castro is more cautious compared to his brother.

I think that you should request full protection for this article at WP:RFPP, and talk your diagreements with Tocino on the talk page while the article is locked. I shall not grant protection to the article myself, as I'm involved with the Kosovo topic. You'll require a neutral admin. Thus, WP:RFPP. Regards, Hús ö nd 19:04, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
Hi there. You just declined an informed request for page protection on grounds that we don't protect preemptively. But a casual inspection of recent revision history shows an edit war in progress. Why do you wish to wait until a 3RR rule becomes a factor? The request is predicated on the ongoing multi-week debacle on International reaction to the 2008 Kosovo declaration of independence -- the very same edits, the very same information, the very same contention, POV-pushing, falsifications, and reverts. Please reconsider. -- Mareklug talk 22:03, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
