Hi,<br> | |||
I used the form Bender (city), because I thought that was the normal disambiguation for cities. However, after your comment, I brushed up on Wiki policy in this area and saw that you are also right. The guidelines are a mess, because every region has a specific convention, sometimes using "name (city)", "name, country", "name, province, country," etc; However the intro says that in general where no previous pattern exists, the form "city, country" should be used, so if we'll move the city, then it would probably be best to move it to ] as you did. However, since there are editors who contest this move, you should follow Bogdan's advice and list the proposal for change first so that the issue can be discussed. Please contact me if you need any help with that. ] (]) 14:42, 28 February 2008 (UTC) | |||

==Feedback== | |||
Well, Xasha, my comment was mainly about the persistent failure to apply ] standards in that article and others. One of the things that jump out is the chaotic use of citations: never mind how they look or were cited (I haven't got around to verifying that), but you'll notice that notes come both after and in front of punctuation marks, that they either follow a space or are glued to the word preceding them. In places with several notes, there is a space between one note and the other. All of this is obviously wrong. What I would normally say to editors is "stick to one style". But, in this case, the guidelines say exactly which style should be used: notes should always follow punctuation, and there should be no space between them and the preceding word; also, there should be no space between notes. You are new here, and I will not hold unfamiliarity with the standards against you. My comment was not aimed at anyone in particular, but I have to say that I am perplexed by the fact that there are users here who have contributed to this project for months and years, and still don't know/don't care about the basic quality standards. | |||
Now, concerning the article. I tried to mend some obvious mistakes over and over again in the past, and it mostly proved a sysiphic effort - every once in a while, the same old unsubstantiated POV seeped back in, the same sort of tendentious editing from both sides had a field day with the article, and was always accompanied by lack of respect for various guidelines. Users like TSO1D and Illythr have tried to apply a standard of neutrality and quality, and what they implemented was commendable. But they too have pushed the rock up the slope only to have it roll back on the ground. I would like to do more for the article, but I would like to convince myself that all the main editors involved have quality and neutrality on their minds, and are not there just to push a POV or another. | |||
While I have to say that I find some of your recent edits controversial and, in some cases, tendentious, I also will gladly acknowledge that most of what I've seen was constructive. I can only hope this is a sign that the minority of users from both sides who want to approach such subjects rationally and calmly, and who want to add relevant content, is growing. So I will perhaps help some more in the future. | |||
Thank you for your kind words. Best, ] (]) 22:31, 28 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
==Moldovan language== | |||
Hi. Reverting back is not nice and certainly is not the solution to any dispute. Talking is. | |||
The infobox in ] has been the subject of repeated and sometimes heated debates, see ] and the other archives. Also, see this ]. There are quite strong arguments against having an infobox in that article. First off, it is not an article about a distinct language, but about a controversy, that's why the sections typical to language articles (phonology, syntax, morphology, vocabulary etc.) are not included. Linguistically, Moldovan is just another name for Romanian, and, as a consequence, most fields in that infobox contain inaccurate (or even wrong) data. For example, what source says that Moldovan is a Romance language? Sources say that Romanian is a Romance language. Also, how do you count the speakers? Census data are almost useless, because people's choice between Romanian and Moldovan was determined by political views, not linguistic facts. | |||
I won't revert the article for now. I expect we can have a rational discussion. — ] ] 10:22, 3 March 2008 (UTC) |

Topic ban violation
A report of your violation has been filed here. - Biruitorul 04:26, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
April 2009
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week in accordance with Misplaced Pages's blocking policy for violating your Eastern Europe topic ban imposed under Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren#Discretionary sanctions here by making this edit; per this AE request. Please stop. You are welcome to make useful contributions after the block expires. If you believe this block is unjustified you may contest the block by adding the text{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. Sandstein 05:28, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).
Xasha (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
Really, I've made 3 mainspace edits in the last 6 months. Does the fact that the 3rd edit was an undeniable, easily verificable and sourceable detail about my country warrant a 1-week long block? Is the diruption caused by my 3 mainspace edits in the last 6 months so severe that I need to be blocked on sight for an insignificant edit about the country I know best? Do my editing habits indicate that I was going to make Misplaced Pages a living hell (cause we are all well aware of the goals of blocking somebody)? I really can't uderstand how this 1-week block is more than an entry in my blocklog (the mainspace edits I make 4 months aparts likely won't be affected)
Decline reason:
Accepting (for the sake of argument) that your edit wasn't controversial, there is no consensus that non-controversial edits should be granted an exemption from topic bans. If you're not planning on editing for months, you don't need to be unblocked before this block expires. If you are, that's unfortunate, because we really don't have a good way of enforcing a ban - once you've violated it - other than by blocking. SHEFFIELDSTEEL 21:16, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
