I reverted the article back to a better version with more content. It just so happened that an image was lost. You're free to put it back in, I was just being careless. Very sorry.

Hi,
In my version of Khrushchev's memoirs, there is are no estimate whatsoever. Not 270,000, not one million, nothing at all regarding detailed casualties in the Winter War, only vague estimations "lots of thousands" or things like that. And the book was published 1999, so I have no reasons to think it was censored.

Hello, Pudeo. It seems to have been established by Arbitration Committee that you are a sockpuppet of a banned disruptive user. Instead of being grateful that no action has been taken against you as yet, I saw you engage in incivility and call your opponents "wikistalinists". Please take a note that neither neonazism nor Holocaust Denial are acceptable in this project. Further outbursts of incivility may lead to blocks. Best, Ghirla -трёп- 08:44, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
Hello, this information that I am supposed to be a sock puppet is new to me. Thanks for noting it to me. Whole "Kven User" is new to me and I haven't even edited articles related to Kvens or so, so I am not familiar with those issues. I have used this account from school networks so I believe it is due to that if it's not a mistake. When I edited from school, the IP had loads of edits. But since I have nothing to do it with, I rather ignore it. Oh and, "I am" not, but I am "suspected" because of my IP at school. Then, where have I engaged in incivility? Yes, I updated that article with a real image but removed it because of some people who adore partisans. Heck, there have been 5 edit wars in that article so I decided it leave so. Then a serious issue: , are you claiming that I am a neonazi and I deny Holocaust? Please show me an edit of mine that I propose neonazism. I find neonazism disgusting and I have never even thought about supporting it. Where the heck have I denied Holocaust? Ridiculous. There is a Finnish saying that you give a stupid answer to stupid accusions and questions, so I'll go ahead: "lol".
By the way, you are saying I have opponents in Wikipedia. Yes, I have seen your, Ghirla and Ipren's "wars" with Polish persons, and Irpen even said that Piotrus is his opponent in some talk page. I find this immature and foolish, please do not drag me into your "opponents"-business. I want to improve Wikipedia and be in a kind community, rather than argue about some city names whether they should be in Polish or Russian.
I demand an explanation, or I consider your message as a 'fooling around' accusation. -- Pudeo ( Talk) 12:19, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

I got those from Finnish Military Website- I will send link when I am free in 2 hours-- Woogie10w 15:39, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
The Soviets listed 6,885,000 confirmed military war dead not counting MIA, POW deaths and losses of Militia and Partisans. The official statistic of 8,668,000 total military dead includes 1,283,000 additional POW deaths and 500,000 estimated MIA-dead. This is not credible. Soviet POW dead were between 2.5 & 3.0 million based on the consensus of western historians. Take the 6.9 million confirmed war dead add 500,000 missing killed in battle plus 2.5 -3.0 million POW deaths and we come to at least 10 million military war dead not counting the Militia and Partisan deaths. I suspect the official Soviet statistic of 8.7 million dead is understated in order to make the Soviet Army performance look better. What a coincidence that they list Axis losses at 8.6 million. In any case back in May 1965 the Soviet MOD claimed 10 million military war dead. Richard Overy is right when he says that we must view Soviet casualty statistics critically.-- Woogie10w 18:01, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Look, I simply look up all articles in Category:Russia and mark them as part of WikiProject Russia. I added the Low-importance parameter, so I absolutely agree that it is not that important for the Russian wiki project. You are however welcome to add the Wikipedia:WikiProject Finland template above the Russia project. Er rab ee 20:46, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for calming down. I really appreciate that. FCW being part of the WikiProject Sweden is a bit absurd, I admit. But then, FCW isn't part of a big event in the Swedish history, it is not in the category tree of Category:Sweden, so there's no need to include that WikiProject. As a show of good will on my part, I significantly expanded Akseli Gallen-Kallela. Er rab ee 23:36, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

On the WikiProject Countries talk page, you had either explictly declared a general interest in the project, or had participated at a discussion that appears related to
Location Maps for European countries.
New maps had been created by David Liuzzo, and are available for the countries of the European continent, and for countries of the European Union exist in two versions. From
November 16,
2006 till
January 31,
2007, a poll had tried to find a consensus for usage of 'old' or of which and where 'new' version maps. At its closing, 25 people had spoken in favor of either of the two presented usages of new versions but neither version had reached a consensus (12 and 13), and 18 had preferred old maps.
As this outcome cannot justify reverting of new maps that had become used for some countries, seconds before
February 5,
2007 a survey started that will be closed at
February 20,
2007 23:59:59. It should establish whether the new style maps may be applied as soon as some might become available for countries outside the European continent (or such to depend on future discussions), and also which new version should be applied for which countries.
Please note that since
January 1,
2007 all new maps became updated by David Liuzzo (including a world locator, enlarged cut-out for small countries) and as of
February 4,
2007 the restricted licence that had jeopardized their availability on Wikimedia Commons, became more free. The subsections on the talk page that had shown David Liuzzo's original maps, now show his most recent design.
Please read the
discussion (also in other sections
α,
β,
γ,
δ,
ε,
ζ,
η,
θ) and in particular the arguments offered by the forementioned poll, while realizing some comments to have been made prior to updating the maps, and all prior to modifying the licences, before carefully reading the
presentation of the currently open survey. You are invited to only then finally make up your mind and vote for only one option.
There mustnot be 'oppose' votes; if none of the options would be appreciated, you could vote for the option you might with some effort find least difficult to live with - rather like elections only allowing to vote for one of several candidates. Obviously, you are most welcome to leave a brief argumentation with your vote. Kind regards. —

It's like a second civil war, vandals v the good guys (except we have better weapons)! I expected this, but I am disappointed we've had so few constructive edits that improve the article. The best for me was Jouten's. And this one was intriguing. Lacrimosus may have a point.
I hope you'll be able to talk Ilummeen into changing his decision. I am devastated that my comments and edits had that effect on him. The truth is that no one so far today has found anything to criticise in the article, which considering its complexity is an enormous tribute to Ilummeen's phenomenal work. We can soon restore the article to the point where he is happy with it again, I am sure.

Hey there. I know, those images are pretty bad. The only reason we did that (which I now regret) is so that all of them have the same names. Now, I'm absolutely no good with changing jpgs to pngs, but if you would be able to change all of them, it would be greatly appreciated. It's a good system, on that template, and they would look a whole lot nicer if they were in one of those formats (preferably svg, but some would probably have to be png, so make sure they all have the same extension).
Thank you, and if you're not able to do it, might you recommend someone who could? └ Jared┘┌ talk┐ 12:24, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Thanks for uploading Image:Catamenia_wp.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link.

Hmm. It seems that there is a technical problem that affects some Commons hosted images (see WP:AN#STOP_DELETING_CSD.23I2_IMAGES) for more. The empty En-Wikipedia image page for this file was deleted per CSD I2 after the featured picture nomination was closed so it fell victim to this software bug then.

Of course Soviets temporarily occupied parts of disputed and Polish territories during that time, particularly during their 1920 offensive. I don't think we have an article on that yet.

Would you consider making a contribution to an exchange of views at either of the following:
As you know, Wikipedia:WikiProject Disaster management came up with entirely reasonable guidelines for naming articles about earthquakes, fires, typhoons, etc. However, the <<year>><<place> <<event>> format leaves no opportunity for conventional nengō which have been used in Japan since the eighth century (701-1945) -- as in "the Great Fire of Meireki" (1657) or for "the Hōei eruption of Mount Fuji" (1707).
In a purely intellectual sense, I do look forward to discovering how this exchange of views will develop; but I also have an ulterior motive. I hope to learn something about how better to argue in favor of a non-standard exception to conventional, consensus-driven, and ordinarily helpful wiki-standards such as this one. In my view, there does need to be some modest variation in the conventional paradigms for historical terms which have evolved in non-Western cultures -- no less in Wikipedia than elsewhere. I'm persuaded that, at least in the context of Japanese history before the reign of Emperor Meiji (1868-1912), some non-standard variations seem essential; but I'm not sure how best to present my reasoning to those who don't already agree with me. I know these first steps are inevitably awkward; but there you have it.
The newly-created 1703 Genroku earthquake article pushed just the right buttons for me. Obviously, these are questions that I'd been pondering for some time; and this became a convenient opportunity to move forward in a process of building a new kind of evolving consensus. -- Ooperhoofd ( talk) 18:16, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
As you're an experienced Wikipedia editor, I was a bit surprised to see that you deleted my contribution to Finland. I would have understood adding a fact-tag, although I've stated I'll add the source, but deleting without any discussion is not the proper way to behave. As for the content, I'm the first to admit that I was a bit surprised by it myself when I first read it. On the other hand, it is the task of experts in every field to find new knowledge and of Wikipedians to try to add that knowledge to keep Wikipedia up to date and relevant. Professor Juha Janhunen is one of the most distinguished Finnish linguists, and definitely much more knowledgeable about this field than either you or I.

Apart from vandalising Wikipedia, you're also behaving in a very dishonest way. My edit makes it very clear that there are conflicting views, you try to edit out the views you don't agree with in order to present your own view as the only truth. Not only do you do that, but to achieve this you gladly remove well-sourced material from a very reliable source, as Juha Janhunen is one of the leading Finnish linguists (check up his C.V.). What is more, I tried to assume good faith the first time, but both your edits and all your talk of Asplund and other irrelevant things to the article seems to suggest that you aren't here for improving Wikipedia but to push your own nationalist views. What does this Asplund have to do with any of this? I'm quoting one person, Juha Janhunen. As for Swedish speakers arriving 4000 years ago, that's also in no connection whatsoever to modern theories which suggest that both Finnish and Swedish arrived relatively late in Finland. I know that there are older sources that claim otherwise (there are still sources saying the earth is flat as well) and that is precisely why I haven't taken out any other theory but merely added a new one to make it clear that there isn't one accepted truth on this matter. What you're doing, unfortunately, is not to present the different theories around but vandalise Wikipedia to push your version as the only version. Please stop immediately!

HI I am informing you on the following discussions referring to the usage of diacritics on en.wiki. It seem there is a movement/campaign of some peple (moreover administrators) which try to eliminate them from the usage on en .wiki. Or at least to minimize , even for personal names in Latin script

A tag has been placed on Image:Olympic logo 1952.svg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:Olympic logo 1952.svg|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

This is just a response to your question at Talk:Michael Jackson, the following is a direct cut and paste from WP:BLP:
Biographies of living persons must be written conservatively, with regard for the subject's privacy. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a tabloid paper; it is not our job to be sensationalist, or to be the primary vehicle for the spread of titillating claims about people's lives. The possibility of harm to living subjects is one of the important factors to be considered when exercising editorial judgment.
Material about living persons must be sourced very carefully. Without reliable third-party sources, it may include original research and unverifiable statements, and could lead to libel claims.
Material about living persons available solely in questionable sources or sources of dubious value should not be used, either as a source or as an external link ( see above).
Never use self-published books, zines, websites, webforums, and blogs as a source for material about a living person, unless written or published by the subject of the article ( see below). "Self-published blogs" in this context refers to personal and group blogs. Some newspapers host interactive columns that they call blogs, and these may be acceptable as sources so long as the writers are professionals and the blog is subject to the newspaper's full editorial control. Where a news organization publishes the opinions of a professional but claims no responsibility for the opinions, the writer of the cited piece should be attributed (e.g., "Jane Smith has suggested..."). Posts left by readers may never be used as sources.
Avoid repeating gossip. Ask yourself whether the source is reliable; whether the material is being presented as true; and whether, even if true, it is relevant to an encyclopedia article about the subject. When less-than-reliable publications print material they suspect is untrue, they often include weasel phrases and attributions to anonymous sources. Look out for these. If the original publication doesn't believe its own story, why should we?
Be careful of "feedback loops" in which an unsourced and speculative contention in a Wikipedia article gets picked up, with or without attribution, in an otherwise-reliable newspaper or other media story, and that story is then cited in the Wikipedia article to support the original speculative contention.
Remove any contentious material about living persons that is unsourced; that is a conjectural interpretation of a source (see Wikipedia:No original research); or that relies upon self-published sources (unless written by the subject of the BLP; see below) or sources that otherwise fail to meet standards specified in Wikipedia:Verifiability.
The three-revert rule does not apply to such removals, though editors are advised to seek help from an administrator or at the BLP noticeboard if they find themselves violating 3RR, rather than dealing with the situation alone. Content may be re-inserted only if it conforms to this policy.
These principles apply to biographical material about living persons found anywhere in Wikipedia, including user and talk pages. Administrators may enforce the removal of such material with page protection and blocks, even if they have been editing the article themselves. Editors who re-insert the material may be warned and blocked. See the blocking policy and Wikipedia:Libel.
Administrators encountering biographies that are unsourced and negative in tone, where there is no neutral version to revert to, should delete the article without discussion (see Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion criterion G10 for more details).

Thanks for uploading File:Eurovision Song Contest 2002.svg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 13:12, 29 June 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Camaron · Christopher · talk 13:12, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi! I edited, or actually rebuilt, the article of Winter War. Also as a part of the project I created the article Background of the Winter War. Both are now rated as B-class. I asked peer review and a copy-editing was requested. I was wondering do have a extra time/interest to do so, and also give some comments of the content. The aim is making both the GA-class (or even Featured) article for 30 November 2009, the 70th anniversary of the start of the war. Peltimikko ( talk) 10:14, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading
File:Fiskars.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 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.

Hi Puedo.
Thanks for feedback on the suspects nationality. There is another article on the shooter
Ibrahim Shkupolli. You might, if you have time, take a look at that too to make sure the cites are correct. I think it should be merged with this one as per my talk page comment there.
Is there any chance we can stick to English language sources?
And Happy New Year! (it is in Australia at least!)

Thanks for uploading File:Assembled 7.62 RK 62.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
{{
di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing 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. Karanacs ( talk) 13:34, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Cultural racism is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cultural racism until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Jason from nyc ( talk) 15:27, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
It is actually OK for users to delete warnings from their talk pages. Deletion of warnings is taken as an assumption that they have been read.

Hi Pudeo - I've asked another admin to review your move
[8] (
Mother's Rights →
Mothers' rights movement). Your edit summary states your reasoning as being a Requested move on another article. This is a highly unusual action. You should be aware that this action, as it is directly related to your comments on
Talk:Men's rights movement and
Talk:Fathers' rights movement, falls under the
probation on men's rights (see
here).
In the very least Pudeo
moves should be discussed. In this instance the page is not about movements/organizations but rather about rights. The
lede line uses the term 'movement' but the body of the article does not deal with this - these are grounds for discussion of the lede not renaming/moving the article. Mother's Rights Activism could be a more
precise name if the page had focussed on bodies/organizations (since the organizations listed as advocating Mother's righst are inter-governmental/United Nations bodies), however as the page deals with the issues of rights not the movements the rename looks to be unwarranted. It is for these reasons that moves need discussion. Furthermore there is at least an appearance of point-making behaviour in moves of pages that reference other article's RfCs. Moves are handled on a page by page basis--

Thank you for
your contributions to the encyclopedia! In case you are not already aware, an article to which you have recently contributed,

templated message. Please accept it as a routine friendly notice, not as a claim that there is any problem with your edits. Thank you. --

I'm attempting to document the online community known as the "manosphere" in a neutral and impartial way. In particular I have an article waiting for publication that's very well sourced and would be difficult for even the most combative and biased editor to reject. However I'm beginning to become concerned that no one has yet looked at my submission. If you could forward this request to anyone in the position to approve my article if it meets Wikipedia standards that would help greatly. Ethicalv ( talk) 18:38, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi, since I noticed that you had been active with the True Finns article, I thought that you might help me keep it clean from the new user Opfinland, who has been spamming that and some other articles related to the party with his own POV agenda and synthesis, writing in a scandalous fashion about issues that are already dealt with in a neutral tone, and simply lying (by trying to tie Breivik into everything). I fear that he is about to start edit warring. -- Jaakko Sivonen ( talk) 11:13, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
Ranze proposed a WikiProject Men's Rights: Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/WikiProject Men's rights.
I have gone ahead and created a candidate page for WikiProject Men's Issues and will make the page an actual WikiProject page once enough people sign up and give their input. I think it would be useful to have a place where work together to prepare material and arguments to respond to people who try to apply double standards to articles about men's rights.

Request reason:
A very baffling ban. First I will explain my comment. It is a negative comment indeed, response to what I perceived as assuming bad faith from Cailil when he likened the people interested in the debated WP project to different kind of serious Wikipedia abuses. Apparently my edit has text inserted in the wrong place, after Cailil's message too. The "prejudiced as..." after Cailil's message is part of my original wording which I changed for the final comment. I must have written that in the wrong place after being disoriented by switching browser tabs while writing it. I apologize for not previewing changes and not noticing it before I posted it. What is the personal attack in my comment? I can't see it filling any descriptions from Wikipedia:WIAPA. It is a negative comment, a response to another negative comment, but that is not a personal attack. Of course, as a native Finnish speaker with a non-perfect English, I might not be able to catch all possible nuances of my text, but even so I can't understand how it even could be interpreted as a personal attack. WP:PA also states that: Repeated or egregious personal attacks may lead to blocks. I have been a member of the English Wikipedia since 2006 and I have never been warned of a personal attack or even received a block for any reason before this. Given that I feel my comment even isn't a personal attack, nor an egregious one, I am just perplexed. I would have protested a 24-hour ban as well, but I consider 1-week ban a very harsh measure. -- Pudeo ' 16:10, 10 July 2013 (UTC) I think I now understand KillerChihuahua's ban message better; he thought I intentionally added that text after Cailil's message. Does it look like I tried to fit it in? It's not even the right wording and doesn't make any sense in Cailil's comment. Compare it to my final comment: I changed the wording prejudice as to hint. -- Pudeo ' 16:10, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
Decline reason:
First, note that this is a WP:BLOCK not a WP:BAN - the two are very different. I'm sorry but your comment about this being accidental makes zero sense whatsoever. In the exact same post you modify someone else's comment, and then respond to that addition - there's not possible way to claim this was a mistake: it's clear and utter falsification of someone else's comments. "Hint" and "prejudice as" certainly do not excuse any negative comments that you make towards an editor or group of editors, especially when easily attributed. In short, the block is valid, and I find your reasoning to be wholly implausible, bordering on a lie ( ✉→ BWilkins ←✎) 11:08, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

Request reason:
If I wanted to manipulate Cailil's message, what would I mean with "What steps will this project take to uphold wikipedia's values and its standards for conduct towards others (see Wikipedia:HARASS#Off-wiki_harassment) didn't prejudice a group of editors as a bunch of hooligans."? It's a nonsensical sentence. Is it really that bizarre that I happened to write part of my message in the wrong place? It shouldn't be too uncommon in Wikipedia to have a chunk of text on the wrong line. I'll make it very clear this time: 1) I'm writing a message that will include "prejudice as a bunch of hooligans". Before reaching that I preview changes to see if the lining is in order that the message will be in the right place. 2) Now, returning to the editor I have two signed messages (one that is mine - unpublished). I accidentally write a part of my message before the wrong signature (Cailil's above). 3) As I am not 100 % concentrated on the Wikipedia tab and writing the message, I probably think I must have erased that part already and write it with different wording anyway (prejudice as -> hint) 4) I publish the comment without previewing changes. I'm astonished you do not see it uses the same wording as my final comment. I'm astonished you think I would be so stupid to add a nonsensible sentence in someone else's message and then criticize it in the same edit with the same wording. Either I have not been able to present my case well, you are deliberately interpreting it in a malign way or you have not understood it properly. "didn't prejudice a group of editors as a bunch of hooligans." That's what I accidentally wrote on Cailil's line. But it even says didn't prejudice. How is it making Cailil look bad; again it doesn't make any sense? Absurd. Where is the personal attack? Editing someone else's talk page comment is strongly against Wikiquette, but unfortunately sometimes it happens with carelessness. Given that the part actually uses the same wording "bunch of hooligans" as my final comment and the fact that it absolutely makes no sense in Cailil's comment, I believe there's more ground to my claim of accidental insertion than intentional manipulation to make Cailil look bad. The block is needless and based on a silly confusion, one that I do not find amusing anymore. I also ask you to assume good faith, I again note that I've never been blocked before in 7 years. -- Pudeo ' 14:40, 11 July 2013 (UTC))
Accept reason:
Indeed, your explanation makes perfect sense. Even without it, the edit just looks to be in error. I am completely at a loss as to how the blocking admin, and another reviewing admin, completely failed to see that. If you were trying to put an attack in their mouth, you would have (a) put in words that made sense with the adjacent content and (b) actually put in something that was an attack (how is "didn't prejudice a group of editors as a bunch of hooligans" an attack?). At the very least, KillerChihuahua ( talk · contribs) should have asked you, an editor with a clean seven-year record, for an explanation before handing out a one-week block. All told, especially in the absence of any evidence that you have a history of personal attacks, the block is, and always was, unwarranted. -- tariqabjotu 23:08, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your comment on the admin action page. I do believe this all ideology. You point to the afd thing and many people seem concerned about that, so I'll elaborate on what happened:
I'm pretty new to the more "advanced" editing features like templates and dispute resolution and so forth. I tried to mark the pages for deletion discussion, because it looked to me that they were just essays written by an academic, without proper sourcing; and one subject seemed not even noteable. When Roscelese put her "swift keep" vote in, I thought (mistakenly) that the effect was equivalent to when she was reverting the POV template to take if off another page (while that page was in POV-dispute discusson). So I reverted it. I did not think I was removing a vote, I thought I was undoing a reversion. Later, I was told that one of the deletion requests was improper in some way, apparently that I didn't complete the process in some respect. The person who told me that declined, however, to tell me in what respect it was incomplete, so I just don't know. Djcheburashka ( talk) 21:22, 11 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi, this was recently promoted to GA and at the time badly needed improvement. I'm trying to get it up to at least near GA status. I was wondering if you could translate the history from Finnish wikipedia or a decent source and I can help source it? I could decipher some of it. There's some text from a number of articles on Finnish wiki in here and sub categories which this article would directly benefit from too. I;ve managed to expand it by over 50% currently but struggling now! Can you see what you can add anyway? It's good that Finland has a GA, but it really does need to be even better to retain it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:22, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi Puedo.
Your evidence as the above link does not fall within the limited scope of the case as described on the evidence page.
Gamaliel's recent actions (both administrative and otherwise), especially related to the Signpost April Fools Joke. The case will also examine the conduct of other editors who are directly involved in disputes with Gamaliel. The case is strictly intended to examine user conduct and alleged policy violations and will not examine broader topic areas.
As the evidence presented is not within this scope it has been removed.
This has been carried out as a clerk action and should not be reverted with permission from the Arbitration Committee.

You could try taking FreeKnowledgeCreator to the Administrator's Noticeboard if you are bothered by his behavior. I likely won't be back here until February. Otherwise you could put forward your other concerns about the Evola article (also note that he was found "innocent" of the charge of being a fascist in court), and how deeply unbalanced the article is with respect to the bulk of his work.
More use of Furlong's "Social and Political Thought of Julius Evola" might be appropriate, but here's the Italian Evola article for comparison: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Evola, and translation; https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=it&u=https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Evola&prev=search
Evola was a proponent of aristocratic radicalism, but see his critique of racism in this text: https://books.google.com/books?id=LRCiCgAAQBAJ
The esotericism is not dealt with at all, but its significance, and significant outside reaction, becomes evident if one reads the introductions to the yoga of power or the hermetic tradition - in " the path of cinnabar", he notes the London Pali society's recognition of the conformity of his interpretations with Buddhist thought.
Evola was a much more complex individual than the article paints him as. Some material from the Italian article might be able to point that out, and also the scholar E. Christian Kopff's introductions to the three English texts of Evola dealing with fascism should also be cited, if the primary source itself cannot be cited.
If the primary source could be cited, as for instance deeply selective partial excerpts from his Buddhist text, then his autobiography "The Path of Cinnabar" should be cited as an item dispelling most of the insinuations in the article. Gggtt ( talk) 02:11, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

This is to inform you that an attempt is being made to overturn an RfC that you voted on (2 RfCs, actually, one less than six months ago and another a year ago). The new RfC is at:
Specifically, it asks that "religion = none" be allowed in the infobox.
The first RfC that this new RfC is trying to overturn is:
The result of that RfC was "unambiguously in favour of omitting the parameter altogether for 'none' " and despite the RfC title, additionally found that "There's no obvious reason why this would not apply to historical or fictional characters, institutions etc.", and that nonreligions listed in the religion entry should be removed when found "in any article".
The second RfC that this new RfC is trying to overturn is:
The result of that RfC was that the "in all Wikipedia articles, without exception, nonreligions should not be listed in the Religion= parameter of the infobox.".
Note: I am informing everyone who commented on the above RfCs, whether they supported or opposed the final consensus. -- Guy Macon ( talk) 03:29, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
Hi Pudeo, I removed this recent edit you made here. As I see you're an experienced editor, you obviously are aware that that kind of remark is an egregious violation of WP:BLP policy so there's no point in templating you. Please remember that it's unacceptable to attack living persons in this manner, especially without providing any supporting source material. Thanks. Hidden Tempo ( talk) 00:02, 20 July 2017 (UTC)
Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.SPECIFICO talk 00:41, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
If you wish to participate in the 2017 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 18:42, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 08:35, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
Greetings,
"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.

Finland
Thank you for quality articles about Finnish topics, such as Finnish Civil War and Hilja Riipinen, adding ggod illustrations, for project work such as redirects and article talk pages, for "I do have a cynical attitude to how things work (or rather, how they don't work) in Wikipedia", for service from 2006, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:
As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.
The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.
The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

You were recently listed as a party to or recently offered a statement in a request for arbitration. The Arbitration Committee has accepted that request for arbitration and an arbitration case has been opened at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/German war effort. Evidence that you wish the arbitrators to consider should be added to the evidence subpage, at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/German war effort/Evidence. Please add your evidence by May 30, 2018, which is when the evidence phase closes. You can also contribute to the case workshop subpage, Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/German war effort/Workshop. For a guide to the arbitration process, see Wikipedia:Arbitration/Guide to arbitration.

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war. 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:
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. — Sangdeboeuf ( talk) 02:27, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
