Estonia–Luxembourg relations

Hello, I've recently tried to restore this page to a version which can be improved upon (a non-protected, non-disambiguation page) and I wondered if I could get your opinion about whether it is currently up to the quality which we expect of every Misplaced Pages article. I would appreciate your comments on the article at User:Cdogsimmons/Estonia–Luxembourg relations on the talk page there, and further improvements that would get it closer to inclusion status are always welcome. Thanks.--Cdogsimmons (talk) 22:57, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

DYK for Human rights in Estonia

On June 16, 2009, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Human rights in Estonia, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Eastern Europe

You are involved in a recently filed request for arbitration. Please review the request at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Case#Eastern Europe and, if you wish to do so, enter your statement and any other material you wish to submit to the Arbitration Committee. As threaded discussion is not permitted on most arbitration pages, please ensure that you make all comments in your own section only. Additionally, the guide to arbitration and the Arbitration Committee's procedures may be of use.

Thanks, Offliner (talk) 21:46, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

1 RR

1RR seems to be a policy that is applied to users, not groups: . I might be not getting somehting. What sort of 1RR did you have in mind? PasswordUsername (talk) 04:52, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

I think the idea proposed by Sanstein is that 1RR would be imposed on the article. The benefit is that there wouldn't be a need to identify group members, since a sock could avoid that anyway. --Martintg (talk) 04:58, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

I take it the same content can't be inserted, reverted by someone else, and reinserted back in, right? (I still think the issue is behavior, not content.) PasswordUsername (talk) 05:05, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Arbitration enforcement

If you'd like to request a review of Offliner's editing, you may file a request with appropriate evidence. (The prior request by Biophys was evaluated by Sandstein as being very flawed.) It may be better for you to gather the evidence on a temporary user page and ask an administrator to look at it first to make sure you are not making errors that would discredit your request. I am open to reviewing your evidence if you ask me for help. Jehochman 16:19, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Notice of editing restrictions

Notice: Under the terms of Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren, any editor working on topics related to Eastern Europe, broadly defined, may be made subject to an editing restriction at the discretion of any uninvolved administrator. Should the editor make any edits which are judged by an administrator to be uncivil, personal attacks, or assumptions of bad faith, he or she may be blocked for up to a week for each violation, and up to a month for each violation after the fifth. This restriction is effective on any editor following notice placed on his or her talk page. This notice is now given to you, and future violations of the provisions of this warning are subject to blocking.

Note: This notice is not effective unless given by an administrator and logged here. Thatcher 21:25, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

1RR limit

Under the terms of Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren I am placing you on a one revert per week limitation for all articles covered by that Arbitration case (Eastern Europe, broadly defined). You are prohibited from making more than one reversion per week per article, not including obvious vandalism. A reversion is any edit that substantially restores the article to prior content, whether or not it is a reversion in the purely technical sense. All reversions must be discussed on the article talk page. Violations will result in escalating blocks. You may request to have the 1RR limit reviewed or lifted after 6 months. This limit is imposed following evidence of prolonged edit warring, the Arbitration Enforcement complaint made here, and as a result of the recent disgraceful edit warring at at Nashi (youth movement) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) over the inclusion of Category:Anti-fascist organizations. While no editor violated the 3RR rule (4 reverts in 24 hours) there were at least 23 reversion of the category between June 11 and June 21, without a single comment by anyone on the talk page. The list of editors and reversions makes a prima facia case for tag-team editing; whether it was organized or spontaneous is irrelevant, and it is not required that I prove anything one way or the other. It's time to edit cooperatively and use the talk pages to discuss disputes.

Soviet war crimes.

Dear Martintg, could you please comments on my recent post in the pogroms section. I would like to implement proposed changes but I would prefer to know your opinion before that.--Paul Siebert (talk) 18:31, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Kuril Islands dispute

Please do not move this article again without very clear consensus to do so. Thank you. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 08:15, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
