DYK for Children's Memorial Health Institute

On 30 November 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Children's Memorial Health Institute, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the Children's Memorial Health Institute was founded as a monument to the heroism and martyrdom of children during World War II? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Battle of Radzymin (1920) - forthcoming TFA

Hello, this is to let you know that I have selected Battle of Radzymin (1920) as today's featured article for December 11, 2012. The blurb (which is at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/December 11, 2012) currently looks like this:

The Battle of Radzymin, a key part of what later became known as the Battle of Warsaw, took place during the Polish–Soviet War (1919–21). The battle occurred near the town of Radzymin, some 20 kilometres (12 mi) north-east of Warsaw, between August 13 and 16, 1920. The first phase began with a frontal assault by the Red Army on the Praga bridgehead. The Soviet forces captured Radzymin on August 14 and breached the lines of the 1st Polish Army, which was defending Warsaw from the east. Radzymin changed hands several times in heavy fighting. The Russians wanted to break through the Polish defences to Warsaw, while the Polish aim was to defend the area long enough for a two-pronged counteroffensive to outflank the attacking forces. After three days of intense fighting, the corps-sized 1st Polish Army under General Franciszek Latinik managed to repel a direct assault by six Red Army rifle divisions at Radzymin and Ossów. The struggle for control of Radzymin forced General Józef Haller, commander of the Polish Northern Front, to start the 5th Army's counterattack earlier than planned. Radzymin was recaptured on August 15, and this victory proved to be one of the turning points of the battle of Warsaw.

If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask me or one of the other TFA team members (featured article director Raul654 (talk · contribs), TFA delegates Dabomb87 (talk · contribs) / Gimmetoo (talk · contribs)) or start a discussion at Misplaced Pages talk:Today's featured article/requests. If the blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions at Misplaced Pages:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. Hope this all makes sense; let me know if not.

Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily.

Article creation

Hi Halibutt I dont knowe if youre aware of this, but there is an excellent template for aviation article creation at Template:WPAVIATION creator, which uses the latest layouts and specifications templates and removes a lot of the slog of inputting basic article code. Check it out!--Petebutt (talk) 05:00, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

PWS-22 & PWS-23

Hi Halibutt, Excellent to see more polish aircraft articles, but there seem to be some issues with these two:

1. The subject matter hardly warrants such detailed articles
2. A single article to cover both would be sufficient as they were VERY closely related and differed mainly in size and engine arrangements, i.e. merge them.
3. A variants section to explain the differences between the BN₃, and T variants.
4. Try to use your own prose instead of parrotting references.
5. Avoid adding superfluous details, such as the various competing aircraft which should only get fleeting mentions at best.

Just some suggestions, but if you look at the articles again objectively you may see my points.

Good luck and carry on writing articles.--Petebutt (talk) 15:41, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

Mauthausen-Gusen

Re: this edit; could you add your source to the article as well? //Halibutt 14:10, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I didn't know how to go about it, since it is from 1. Reimer's individual 'german wikipedia ' pages, and they told me not to cite wiki as a source. I can add the other source from French if that is acceptable. I presume it must be translated into English for en. wiki. YoursValleyspring (talk) 18:15, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

1. Guido Reimer (* 31. Juli 1901 in Ronsperg; † unbekannt) war ein deutscher SS-Obersturmführer und Kommandeur des SS-Sturmbanns im KZ Buchenwald sowie Leiter der Spionage- und Sabotage-Abwehr im KZ Mauthausen. de.wikipedia, Guido Reimer

2. Krebsbach, Eduard (SS, Standortarzt à Mauthausen de 1941 à 1943, puis commandant du camp de Kaiserwald près de Riga) : capturé en 1945 ; dépose en 1946 dans le procès de Mauthausen ; condamné à mort par un Tribunal américain à Dachau le 5 mai 1946 ; exécuté à Landsberg le 28 mai 1947. (french)

http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Holocaust/gusenmed.html

Dr. Eduard Krebsbach Between October 1941 and Autumn 1943, he was Chief-Physician of the SS and the Police at Linz, Steyr, Wels and KZ Mauthausen-Gusen. He was the first to start mass-execution of ill and unfit prisoners by heart-injections. So he was nicknamed "Dr. Spritzbach" (Injection-Doctor) in the camps. In January 1942, 732 Spanish inmates and 571 Soviet inmates were exterminated by heart-injections at KZ Gusen Concentration Camp. In general, heart-injections were given at KZ Gusen Camp two times a week until April 1945. The career of Dr. Krebsbach ended at KZ Mauthausen-Gusen when he shot Josef Breitenfellner, a young man from Langenstein-Village who served in the German Army at that time and was home for vacation. Krebsbach shot this German soldier May 22, 1943, on vacation from his private house because he was disturbed by Breitenfellner and his friends. Due to this crime, Dr. Krebsbach was moved from KZ Mauthausen-Gusen to KZ Warwara where he led the selections along with the liquidation of that camp in August 1944. Later, he worked as the Inspector for Epidemies in the occupied countries of Lettland, Estland and Lithuania. The following SS-Doctors refused to give heart-injections at KZ Gusen:

Featuring your work on Misplaced Pages's front page: DYKs

Thank you for your recent articles, including Katerynivka, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Misplaced Pages's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK. Let me know if you need help, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:10, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages

Thank you for your recent articles, including Katerynivka. 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 Misplaced Pages: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.

File:Rzeczpospolita_1920.png - Katowice and autonomous Silesian Voivodeship joined Poland in 1922 and not before!

Hi Halibutt, I have found an error on your maps regarding Poland (II RP) between 1918 and 1922. Katowice were incorporated into Poland on 22. June 1922 (when polish military came in, rest of area in July). Especially the maps on Polish–Soviet War are affected - at that time autonomous Silesian Voivodeship did not exist and it's area was beyond Polish borders. So please correct the affected maps accordingly. Regards! --Beschu (talk) 22:09, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

re: Nazi crimes against the Polish nation

You chose a difficult one for your first review. I'll see if I can add anything; IIRC this article was intended as a split from WW2 general one, on he level similar to Holocaust in Poland (one deals with the Jews, one with the non-Jews). The concept is notable, but I haven't looked at the article in loooong time. Might have time on Friday. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 16:15, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Nazi crimes against the Polish nation/GA1

Halibutt, Poeticbent continues working on his Treblinka FAC to the exclusion of this nomination—even though the FAC closed a week ago, concentration remains on working the article so a new FAC can be opened in a week's time, at which point even more work will be needed to address issues raised by the review.

I think, under the circumstances, it's best to close what is now the oldest ongoing hold—82 days and counting—and let Poeticbent nominate again when there's time to work on the GAN, since the issues you've raised remain unaddressed. Aside from editing the first Germanization paragraph on December 12, Poeticbent hasn't touched the article since October 16. Can you please post to the review page? Many thanks.

your maps need upkeep, let me.

Halibutt, you are alive! Thank my lucky stars. Some of your maps need fixing or updating and I was hoping you had the original files I could use instead of hacking what is on commons. Please tell me you are willing to spend some time on this important, neglected maintenance, or at the very least, hand off the goods. Zdrufko, -- Mareklug talk 12:57 am, Today (UTC−6)

Some baklava for you!

I am fresh out of wiki kittens; please accept this cake as a thank you for your support and thoughtful comments during my (now withdrawn) RfA. What doesn't kill me... Cheers, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:30, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

About Halibutt

re-posted from user talk:Mareklug#About_Halibutt in its entirety (the section) for transparency, and to meet the user's own wishes regarding factoring correspondence dialogue on user pages that involve him. --Mareklug 09:10, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Yes, he is still somewhat active here. But regarding your comment for him, I recommend you either leave it on his talk page or WP:ECHO him, I'd be surprised if he (or most other voters) would come back to the check for replies to their vote. Would you? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:29, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

I would, since I am a megalomaniacal show-off, hellbent on alienating sensitive people, when I am not influencing the less coruscant (I am trying very hard not to say, the dul^H^H^H). But that is just me, Piotrze. ;) Danke for the advice. --Mareklug 10:55, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Tell me precisely which maps you mean and I might be able to find the original. It all depends on what maps you are referring to. I believe I uploaded the original xcf files of the early maps to commons, so they are there. The newer svg maps are also there, but I might have some different versions at my PC. Let me know the details and I hope I might be able to help. //Halibutt 12:06, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

Thank you, but the precise telling will have to wait. I am swamped, and did not budget any time for this, merely ejaculated :) at the sight of you my surprise and need. The maps of Poland, historical maps, are the ones that need to be the best originals you can lay your hands on. I remember having had to alter some texts on the map, or range of colors, or introduce a new color to the legend... stuff like that. --Mareklug 14:21, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

First of all, next time you try to reach me, drop a line to my talk page. I don't visit yours regularly.

Secondly, you either refer to the 18th century maps of Poland or the 20th century maps of Poland. The earlier are made in GIMP and the source file is available for all to use. Sadly, most clones of my maps were made by people who preferred to use MS Paint and modify them by painting with their mouse. And I can do little about it. The 20th century map however was made in vector format from the beginning, and it's much easier to edit and correct. //Halibutt 23:31, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

Thank you. I had in mind the 18th century maps. I will try to manage with what is on Commons for those. Incidentally, I am aware of the pl wiki custom of replying on the responder's user talk page, and so on, without rhyme or reason, but I was following the local custom (en wiki) which embraces the much saner keep-it-all-in-one-place-and-thread approach. When replying to you, however, I will copy the answer to your talk page, as you wish. Thank you for your maps and for taking the time to tell me about them. Zdrufko, -- Mareklug 09:10, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

• P.s. https://en.wikipedia.org/Halibut You realized all along, I trust, that your handle is a misspelling, a rather droll one, of the fish? Were you punning on purpose on the word "butt"? W znaczeniu "tyłek"  ;) -- Marek

Permission to use image

I am writing a book on Polish immigration, focusing on a group that emigrated generally from the Rzeszow area to northeastern Pennsylvania. They all became coalminers. I am including a section on the history of Poland, and the reasons the compelled them to leave their homeland. Your map of the partitions of Poland - Partitions of Poland.png (https://en.wikipedia.org/Third_Partition_of_Poland), I would like to include it in the book, though I would like to include it in black and white. Would you grant permission for this use?

Regards,

Martin Novak
