Hello

Hi, I have noticed you've been adding many interesting comments to talk pages of a number of articles. They would be much more useful if you could also provide sources of the information and more details, whereever avalable. Many thanks. --Lysy 15:01, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

--silentStrike 20:43, 7 September 2007 (UTC)==Cuban elections== Why did I revert your entry? Because there was nothing to back up your assertion. Having been in Cuba at the time of Poder Popular elections I know from personal experience that your contribution was based on political prejudice as to what consitutes an election. If you want to make a contribution like that and not be challenged then you'd best argue it through on the discussion page before putting it in the Cuba entry. If you don't want to get into a debate then come up with sufficient references to render one pointless. MichaelW 14:13, 18 January 2006 (UTC)


Wake up MichaelW

This gay is really a a tape player of Castro propaganda ,
 probably hi is on Castro's pay roll, like some congresman
 and a loving son of the system that he never live
 , that is enyoing the real freedom of this country
 where he do not have to be scare of the secret police
 following him behing or the oscure
 cell on the botton of the "cabana" o "vista marista".

Hey MichaelW wake up the Poder popular is a finger pointing
 institusion no and elected one, even that 
they try the election, all the candidate are propused by the
 PCC not by normal people like you or me.  

I belibe that trying to sensor this media or other
 is like try to play with the media and wiki should be 
open to the opinion of every  single individual.

Went Castro wrote the "History Will Absolve Me" he try 
to play with the people emotion againg Batista, but he 
became worst than Batista went all the problems that 
hi was needed to fix are even worse that
 went he toke power from the republic.

 And really sorry MichaelW your neuron are working really bad. 
if you want we could exchange you, for one of the
 10 million Cuban who one to come to this country  and enjoy 
the freedom even with the shark killing one of every
 5 Cuban who cross the stretch.

With regards to your comments on Talk:Cuba#Censorship: Please see Misplaced Pages's no personal attacks policy. "Do not make personal attacks anywhere in Misplaced Pages. Comment on content, not on the contributor. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users." Please keep this in mind while editing. Thanks. --Colle||Talk-- 23:52, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Deletion

The article was deleted for the following reason: nonsense from counter-revolutionary websites and "It is an empty or very short article providing little or no context". If you have any other questions, let me know. Cheers. -- WB 00:21, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Welcome

I see that nobody has welcomed you to Misplaced Pages, and given you a list of tools.

I have found the following long list links useful:

Feel free to contact me here.

(A word of advice; it makes no sense, but you will get more respect if you create your user page). Be bold!

La Seguridad del Estado

I removed the statement "La Seguridad del Estado supports the system" because although it is true, it doesn't really say anything. You wouldn't write "the CIA supports the system" in the US article. Also, State Security has changed, I don't think it is still viewed as the secret police. Their mandate is more stopping terrorism and saving tourists nowadays, no? --Colle||Talk-- 17:47, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

specify, please

ZWould you please be more polite, Sir? Xx236 14:42, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Could you specify which comment you're referring to? Just curious. KarlBunker 14:47, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Oh, you're referring to my comment about your edit to McCarthyism. I'm sorry, but it was a silly edit. The McCarthyism article is not about the crimes and oppression of the Soviet regime, nor is it about the merits of "anti-McCarthy movies". And you aren't supposed to put personal comments like "I don't know any one showing crimes of the evil system..." into a Misplaced Pages article. If you make mistakes like that in your edits, your edits are going to be called "silly" (or worse). KarlBunker 15:07, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

USSR

I don't believe that your polish/baltic POV actually helps wikipedia. In fact, I would say that you are less informed than me, since you only see the bad things of the USSR. Messhermit 17:24, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Since only an ignorant can bring up to the topic stuff like Capitalistic Miami, I would ignore your comments. If you don't have anything of importance to say, don't bother wot write me. Messhermit 13:33, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Freedom

"Michael, I find it unfair to use freedom of the non-Communist world to advertise lack of freedom. Xx236 11:16, 27 February 2006 (UTC)"

The Cubans have freedoms we don't and we have freedoms they don't. Unless you live in a state of total anarchy, freedoms everywhere are limited. The basic freedom in the capitalist world is for any individual to have as much of the pie as they can hold on to. All our other freedoms are secondary.

'Fairness' is a measure of our own making and has little to do with the way anything works. You have set up your own standards of importance when measuring 'freedom' and when the world outside your head fails to respect thosae standards you cry "Unfair!!!" Enjoy the echoes, there's not much else to be gained from such egoistic attitudes. MichaelW 13:59, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

"You do exactly the same what I do - you have your point of view. The difference is that you have some authority in Misplaced Pages, you censor and criticise me." Where do you get that from? I have no more authority than you. I don't censor you, I edit just like anybody else. It isn't personal. "If Cuban people are so happy, why are they so controlled?" Have you been to Cuba, spent time working with, socialising with, ordinary Cubans? I have. They, like you and me, are limited in their activities by the rules of their society, official and unofficial. In my experience they are no more or less content than people in other places. What struck me most about Cuba was how peaceful it was compared to the UK. They aren't controlled and oppressed in the way the Miamians and US anti commies portray them. That's just propaganda.

"The Cuban system will fail sooner or later, probably after the death of Fidel Castro." When the Soviet Union collapsed the same thing was said. As long as Cuba's critics focus on Castro and exaggerate his powers they will underestimate the resiliance of the system as a whole. MichaelW 19:15, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Keep believing the anti Castro propaganda and you will constantly be surprised. There has been a strong leadership, separate from the Castros, running Cuba for a few years now. Alarcón, Roque, Lage. Those names mean anything to you? Fidel may have a lot of influence but his main role these days is voice and face. Raoul is, from what I've heard, as keen an agriculturalist as a military leader. I doubt at his age he will be more than a stop gap leader. MichaelW 15:46, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Artur Szyk

Polish 'pedia says that he was "participant of polish-bolshevik war", which is basically true. You know, cooks, truck drivers, musicians, artists, etc. may serve army in their profesional capacities without being brave soldiers. Also, he was not clerk. He was artist. mikka (t) 16:21, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

I see what you meant. Well, his official bio (eg., referenced in en: wiki) says he was in charge of artisitic propaganda and says nothing about actual fighting in polish-soviet war. The article you mentioned, while provides important information about him as artist, leaves me suspicious whether the author knew details about this war, since it does not say a word about Szyk's professional activity in this period (although "Szyk as artist" is the main topic of this polish article). I suspect that the author of the article knew that Szyk was in Army, but he had absolutely no idea what Szyk did there. From what I've read, Szyk was sitting in Lodz, nowhere near Polish-Soviet front. mikka (t) 18:46, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

I am copying our dialogue into Talk:Arthur Szyk. In the future, when discussing article content, please use the article talk page, and use the user talk page to invite to the discussion. This is because may be other people have more information on the subject. mikka (t) 18:51, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Soviet Union

Did you read all the talk page archives yet? - FrancisTyers 11:08, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Please try and maintain civility and refrain from making personal attacks, insinuating that I intend to humiliate victims is highly rude. I realise that this is a very emotional topic for you and that you can get a bit worked up, so I will assume good faith.
No matter if you criticise this one, the one of 2004 or the one of 2001 it doesn't matter, the chances are that the discussion of the separation of church and state has been covered before and probably your complaints have been answered. Thanks for your time :) - FrancisTyers 11:21, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Powała

Sure, but that was not the way to correct that. You don't copy-paste articles in wikipedia as it breaks the page history and suggests that you were the author of the article and not just the person who copy-pasted it to a new location. Instead you use the move option. I reverted your blanking of the article and asked User:Piotrus to move it the proper way. //Halibutt 12:15, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

GL and AL

It wasn't a proper question, was it. //Halibutt 13:54, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

They did as they were mostly formed by Polish citizens on Polish soil. Though you're right, the organization was not state-controlled, as barely any underground organization was at that time. //Halibutt 07:54, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
...and..? //Halibutt
You're right. They are there for the sake of consistency. The NSZ weren't part of the "Secret State" either, yet their political representation was. And it's easier to have all of them in one template rather than four different templates.
BTW, you might want to consider starting to write a tad longer comments. Most of them are too enigmatic to be understandable. Also, you don't have to start a new section every time you add a word or two. One section is enough, really. //Halibutt 13:43, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
Take a look at this edit to get the idea. //Halibutt

Prussia

All information about discrimination of national minorities in Prussia was deleted. Information that Poles were subject to discrimination in Prussian state have been stated as "historical revisionism" by a German user. All information about this presented on discussion page was either ignored or claimed that it is a Polish POV because Poles feel unsecure living on others land, despite the fact that sources were non-Polish. Please help in achieving NPOV in the article --Molobo 15:10, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

1901 Church - Spiral spire, Beslau

Yeah that's a good question - thought it was from an on-line list - I'll check my books tonight - it does look like a mistranslation to me - I've found a reference to a HochKirche Turmhelm in 1901 breslau - Give me 24hrs and I'll either fix of remove it.--Mcginnly | Natter 11:21, 24 August 2006 (UTC) ps. I took the liberty of fixing your talk page layout problem - sorry if it was supposed to be like that.--Mcginnly | Natter 11:23, 24 August 2006 (UTC) I've fixed the link to the archinform website.--Mcginnly | Natter 09:05, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Laurynas Gucevičius

Well, the article in Lithuanian says that his father was a peasant, Simonas Masiulis and his mother Kotryna Masiulienė (her maiden name Žekonaicia, her father Žekonis), his wife. Ona Gucewicz was a godmother, her maiden name Baltušytė, she was married to somebody named Gucewicz. The church baptismal record shows that, the most likely Polish speaking priest wrote in Latin. There was also a stepmother, wife of Masiulis after Laurynas mother died. I translated this for you, even so I don't know who you are, but Halibutt most likely will read this and will appropriate my work for free as he used my translation from Lithuanian wikipedia and from Lithuania's history book for his own goals. He is proud of his nonsense writtings and linking refs on his whims, that what I think of him. He should not write or edit what he doesn't understand, but he didn't care about my warning and there is no way of stopping him. So you judge for yourself. Juraune 10:29, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Does it mean that he was adopted? No. Please read about Roman Catholic baby Christening traditions. Laurynas was christened when he was a baby. It was back then, not in modern world. Godmother usually has to take care of her godchild throughout his life and it doesn't mean adoption, taking a child away from his real mother or stepmother. Have a nice weekend. Juraune 13:14, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Babel?

Please consider adding useful info from Misplaced Pages:Babel (languages) to your userpage (it would help me to know if I can direct you to Polish language sources or not); besides, it would make you look more like an active editor you are if your userpage was not red.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  01:39, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Tnx. You may also want to add information about your English skills, and other languages if you know them (see User:Piotrus/Babel for my Babel details).-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  00:16, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

talk:Erika Steinbach

none of your comments, or better defined as allegations and falsifications warrant a response to them. When you are ready to contribute anything meaningful to the discussion, then I will find it worth my time to respond to you. As Richard Rorty said in his essay "Religion as a Conversation-Stopper" (Philosophy and Social Hope, pp 168-174 1999 Penguin books, London) YOU ARE A "CONVERSATION STOPPER".

Memebers of my family have been murdered by Germans during WWII. I cannot stand German revisionists, claiming that other nations were reponsible for WWII. Xx236 13:40, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Note to Xx236 re comments on my talk page:
By "other less visible atrocities," I meant the Nazi-German crimes against Poles, Russians, other Slavs, Gypsies, the mentally ill, German socialists, and so on. I fully realize Poland suffered horribly under the German occupation. The challenge to Poles three generations later is to find a way to reconciliation with their western neighbor.

Expulsion of Germans after World War II

There is a discussion going on between User:Lysy and myself at Talk:Expulsion of Germans after World War II. Lysy has brought up an important criticism of the article that I agree with and will result in a shift in the tone of the article. I would like your input into the discussion before edits are made rather than afterward. Please join us in this discussion.

Oborniki Śląskie

Heja! Wiem że minęło trochę czasu ale czy możesz mi powiedzieć o co dokładnie chodziło z pytaniami na dyskusji: Talk:Oborniki Śląskie? MonteChristof 00:14, 27 November 2006 (UTC) No z definicji, chociaż same Oborniki leżą na morenie czołowej i mamy tu miejscami nawet czarnoziem, ale wystarczy tylko przejechać się w dół miasta - na południe połudiowe i zachodnie części gminy aby okazało się że gleby naraz słabną do lessu. Pisałem narazie w zamyśle o gminie - ponieważ jeszcze do niedawna był zwyczaj pisania na en.Wiki wszystkiego w jednym artykule. Oprócz dębu rośnie w mieście również buk. Jednak jak powiedziałem wystarczy zerknąć że kilka kilometró dalej mamy Rezerwat Przyrody Jodłowice, będący ostoją jodły... MonteChristof 15:13, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Krauts

Re your assertion — as I understand it — that Germans don't know about or give proper attention to Nazi crimes, I recommend this English-language version of an article on Spiegel site. Not because it's exhaustive or comprehensive, but because it's just one small current example of the countless German articles and books about these matters that have appeared for decades in Germany. Here's a link:

http://www.spiegel.de/international/0,1518,435882,00.html

Here's another relating to the same book:

Thanks for your reply. I'm sorry, but I have to say I think your view is jaundiced. As far as I am aware, the story of the '44 Warsaw uprising is well known in Germany, as it is elsewhere in the West, among reasonably well-educated people who have some interest in history. It's one of the chapters of WWII.
I'm not writing about "reasonably well-educated people who have some interest in history" (1%?). The two Warsaw uprisings were many times mixed up by politicians and writers, even by one Bundespresident. Norman Davies' popular book was published only in January 2003 (English) and in 2004 (German). Expulsions lists in Wikipedias don't enlist the expuslion of Warsaw people (I believe I have added it in the English Wiki, but not in the German one).


Granted, popular knowledge of history tends to be superficial, and some people just aren't interested in history at all. At the popular level many people may not know much about the Warsaw Uprising (unless they've read Mila 18) — but my impression is that this is not as true in Germany as here in the U.S., since Nazism/WWII was such a pivotal and catastrophic event for Germany. Every German I've known over the years is very well aware of the huge burden of collective shame the Germans will bear for centuries as a result of the Nazi crimes against humanity, including the Poles. It's in their media all the time.
The situation has changed since Erika Steinbach's project was accepted by many leftists. The Center against expulsions will create the symbol of reponsiblity of cruel Poles in the vincinity of the Holocaust memorial. No symbol od crimes against Poles exists in Berlin.

I watch German TV. Nazi crimes against Christian Poles aren't a frequent subject. A short Warsaw uprisining documentary has criticised by many viewers, I have obtained a standard answer qwhen I prised it.


Example: A few years ago, when my wife and I were visiting Lithuania, I took a side-trip to Olsztyn and Ketrzyn, basically to see what the southern part of the former East Prussia was like as part of Poland. Because of my interest in history, I went to the ex-Wolfsschanze ruins east of Ketrzyn.
Well, at the hotel where I stayed in Ketrzyn there was a group of German bicyclists, and some of them went to the Wolfsschanze, too. Later that afternoon, they were on the hotel patio having beer and talking, and I heard one of them say, "I'm so ashamed, so ashmed!" Obviously, this guy was born long after WWII; he was expressing a very typical modern German POV: Shame over the entire phenomenon of Nazism.
I believe that anti-Polish Germans generally don't visit Poland on their bicycles, eventually they distribute anti-Polish printigs near the border.
Sure, there are extremists and neo-Nazis in Germany (mostly in the ex-DDR), but there are white supremacists and self-styled neo-Nazis in the U.S., too — and skinheads in Poland, for that matter. I'm not talking about them. (There are idiots in every society.) I'm talking about the prevailing attitudes of reasonably educated people.
I have read hundreds of free German opinions in the Internet, they were mostly anti-Polish or - when neutral - rejected any responsibility or shame. I don't demand responsibilty or shame from young people, I want historical context. Even www.shoah.de contains doubtful claims and recommends an allegedly WWII forum, where anti-Polish opinions are presented. At least two German-Polish forums were destroyed by hate-postings. CDU Forum contained many anti-Polish texts.

The expulsion of the Germans wasn't the biggest one in Europe. The SU expelled much more people during the revolution, civil war and collectivisation.

Bambrzy

  1. Nie "Bambergi" a Bambergu
  2. Wynika to z historii...

itd, itd.

Proszę, nie wprowadzaj "merytorycznych" poprawek w tematach o których masz jak widzę mgliste pojęcie. Radomil talk 13:41, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

A co ma Würzburg do Bambrów? A co do popularnosci źródeł... spójrz na autorkę. Jeśli chcesz pisać o bambrach, a nazwisko prof Marii Paradowskiej nic Ci nie mówi to nie mamy o czym rozmawiać. Radomil talk 13:56, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Ale jak lubisz ksiażki to proszę: Jerzy Topolski (red) Dzieje Poznania, tom I cz. 2 do roku 1793, Warszawa-Poznań 1988, Państwowe Wydawnictwo Naukowe ISBN 83-01-08196-3 Radomil talk 13:58, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Błąd wynika prawdopodobnie z faktu, że w XVIII wieku diecezja bamberska była w unii personalnej z diecezją würzburską atanowiąc eklezjastyczne państewko, osadnicy pochodzili jednak z okolic Bambergu a nie Würzburga.

Co do prof. Paradowskiej - jest ona przewodniczącą Tow. Bambrów Poznańskich (sama jest bamberką), kieruje Pracownią Etnologii Instytutu Archeologii i Etnologii PAN (Oddział w Poznaniu) i wykłada na UAMie. Radomil talk 14:24, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Sprawa jest o tyle niejasna, że znaczenie słowa "Bamber" zmieniało się w czasie. Pierwotnie oznaczało osadników z Bamberga zaś z czasem zaczęło dotyczyć wszystkich mieszkańców (bez względu na pochodzenie) tych kilku ówczesnych, podpoznańskich wsi. Zatem używajac słowa "bamber" w szerokim znaczeniu, można nie mieć wogóle niemieckich korzeni, a być uznanym za bambra. Co więcej, przez pewien czas, w gwarze poznańskiej, słowo "bamber" było po prostu pejoratywnym określeniem odpowiadajacemu dziesiejszemu "wieśniakowi, burakowi".

Adam Mickiewicz

Yes, I am sure that Adam Mickiewicz had Jewish roots. See: "Mickiewicz's mother, descended from a converted Frankist family": Encyclopaedia Judaica, art. Mickiewicz, Adam. "Mickiewicz's Frankist origins were well-known to the Warsaw Jewish community as early as 1838 (according to evidence in the AZDJ of that year, p. 362). The parents of the poet's wife also came from Frankist families." Encyclopaedia Judaica, art. Frank, Jacob, and the Frankists.

I would not like to write here about his personal connection with Jewish community (i.e. Rotschild family) or deep Jewish elements (Kabbalah) in his poetry or writings. I hope you know the following fact: on the outbreak of the Crimean War, Adam Mickiewicz went to Turkey to organise - with his friend Armand Levy, a Romanian Jew - a Jewish Legion, the Hussars of Israel, composed of Russian and Palestinian Jews.

An article in la Repubblica of 14 July 2004 concluded with the testimony of Jacek Kopcinski, who said:«Today Polish romanticism is spoken of as a synonym for nationalism and anti-semitism. It was the opposite: the messianism of our poet Mickiewicz had Jewish roots. Marek Edelmann, the last leader of the revolt of the ghetto, followed Mickiewiciz himself, in the idea of death heroically sought and not merely undergone. The idea that Poland should sacrifice itself for Europe arose in Jewish circles».

Shalom, Mibelz, PhD, 17:07, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi Xx236 ! Your emotional writing is real funny. Do you know that Karl Marx wrote anti-Semitic articules ? Have you heard about Ariel Toaff's anti-Semitic theses ? Mazel Tov, dr Mibelz, 20:40, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Is there some reason we are not mentioning, as well, Bobby Fischer's anti-semitic remarks? Mibelz is correct here. I would just put in all supported statements, with indications of support.--Epeefleche 11:33, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello Xx236 ! You have written: "Muzeum Literatury has published a research proving that Mickiewicz' mother was Tatar. I don't care if she was Chinese or Russian, if you care and want to wage a war in Internet, you would rather read the article and prove that the Belarussian author was wrong". First of all, I do not want wage any wars. Of course, your funny writing is connected with Chinese or Russian roots, and the anti-Semitic argument.

I do not know an articule on Mickiewicz' mother written by a Belarusian author. Please, send it to my address. Probably, the author came into notice that among Lithuanian-Belorusian Frankists (Jews who converted to Christianity) were not only Ashkenazi (Western) Jews but also Karaites (Eastern Jews). In 15th century Lithuanian prince Vytautas ordered to settle some Tatars in Trakai region (their descendants live there by now, and they are Karaites, not Muslims).

Greetings, Mibelz, 9:39, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Stop spreading lies

Stop spreading your POV as an objective information like this . Nobody says that expulsion was good or bad. Only difference is that Germans were expelled by force, and Poles did leave Vilnius on their own will (as it is stated in the reference). Do you understand the difference?--Lokyz 14:54, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

I did leave previous message here, because it was a friendly and personal advice to reference what you say, and not push your POV, as in this very case. And let me remind you, Misplaced Pages talk pages is not chat pages.
And as for Lithuanian academic research quality I do not think you have enough qualifications to judge them - better find some academic resource confronting Stravinskienė's conclusions. Your POV alone does not have any value. Have a nice day.
Ah another one thing - you may want to provide any diff, where anyone stated clearly, that Polish repatriation was "good".--Lokyz 15:26, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Stop slander - not supporting Polish POV is not a proof of nationalism. I did provide reference, that explains why I do call it the way I call. Many English book call it repatriation, you might check in a library. So it is rather your knowledge under doubt, not mine, and this is your nationalism that makes you spread lies about me.
And, as I can see you cannot provide any proof that i did call that act "good". The link you provided does not support your slander. I'm still waiting for an apology.--Lokyz 00:15, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Even if I respect your opinion, Misplaced Pages is based on few simple rules - ], neutral point of view and not not on opinions or beliefs. Let me explain it to you a bit further - neither you neither I have been there, and neither you neither I did see documents about the process nor the same process. To grasp what was happening and to put it in understandable and not weasel language, in other words - neutral look at he subject is a job for professional academic scholars, that maintain neutral language. Other side of the coin are journalists, who do write things in emotional manner (it is needed to stimulate increase of newspaper sales) and this sometimes leads to further creation of stereotypes, that escalates hatred towards others and can even cause revanchism. That's why neutral language is needed, and that's why Misplaced Pages is dealing with facts, not emotions. If you want to express your feelings on the subject you may create your own webpage or blog, and write your feelings down there. And by doing this you would join journalist side. And lastly - no, I do not approve the things that happened. With a minor disintction - I do remember not only Polish, but also Lithuanian victims, remember Polish caused Wilno pogroms, burning Lithuanian libraries. And that does not make me shout on every corner about various nationalisms and national stereotypes, just NPOV'ing articles not to cause accidental outburst of revanchism.

Anti-Polish Sentiment

Of course, I didn't worry about the page title - the point is that Anti-Polish sentiment has essentially the same content. If you don't like the title of that article, take it up on the article's talk page. The point is that the two pages are needlessly duplicating each other. WilyD 16:23, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Numbers

Your article Jabłoń-Dobki states that there were 91 local people killed there during pacification of March 8, 1994. Meanwhile, article Pacification operations in German-occupied Poland states that 81 civilians were burned alive and additional 15 shot in that village. Can you explain the difference in numbers? If the 15 civilians were shot dead, the total number of victims would amount to 96, rather than 91. I'd appreciate if you fixed that little discrepancy. --Poeticbent  talk  14:49, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

I doubt very much that detailed numbers exist for any mass crime. For Jedwabne it's 340-1600, so ten or twenty is nothing. The Polish Wiki had 93, 91 comes from quoted IPN journal. I don't know the source of the other version.Xx236 15:09, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Belarusian articles

I understand many Belarusian articles on here are written in a Soviet POV. There are also many of these articles I have not seen yet, but give me some time, I can try and see if the Zscout-magic can do anything. User:Zscout370 20:30, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi, here is a partial answer to your question. :Dc76 15:29, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
You are right, there is no article about the common graves at Tatarka yet. I understand that you are interested specifically in the killings that took place in June-August 1941. So, POW killed in 1944 would fall out of this category. Similarly will those killed before 22 June 1941.
Here is a short overview of instances known to me. I can not find sourses ad hoc for all of them, but I can do this in time. However you can have an idea about the scale:
  • In every county center of Bessarabia and Northern Bukovina there was an NKVD headquoters. Many arrested people were taken there to never be seen again. When the Romanian army arrived in July 1941, shallow graves were discovered in all of them in cellars, in courtyeards, or in wells. I read about those in Chisinau, Orhei, Tighina, Soroca, Cernauti, Cetatea Alba. None of them contained particular big number of people: generally around 40-50 each, with the exception of Chisunau, where there were more. However, the discovered remains showed horible signs of torture: missing limbs and fingers, hands and legs tied with metal ropes, etc. It is not completely clear on which date these were killed: could be both before or after 22 June 1941.
  • A deportation has previously occured on 13 June 1941, and 40.000 people were deported. Only a small fraction of them ever returned from the Gulag.
  • Fasty processes took place for people arrested before 22 June 1941. For example, the Vasile Lupu High School in Orhei process, that I have already mentioned. 13 were shot and 13 deported (7 died, 6 survivied, including the youngest, age 13 when condemned, for being part of the group that wrote anti-communist slogans on some buildings in Orhei at age 12 and 1/2)
  • I googled now in 3 minutes, and found for example this, which gives the following examples:
    • in the cellar of the NKVD building on 97, Viilor street, Chişinău were found 87 bodies, including 15 in a common grave, with tied hands and legs.
    • in the courtyard of the former Italian consulate in Chişinău, where NKVD had another branch, 80 bodied were unveiled, the majority remained unidentified because of very much mutilation. It appeared that the people were burned during the interogation, and then treated with lime and acids after death. According to their cloves, the victims were mainly priests, students, school students, railroad workers.
    • in the cellars of the Mitropolitan Palace in Chişinău were discovered "cells for Romanian nationalists". On 7 september 1941, in Chişinău took place the funerals of 450 people found dead in the Italian Consulate, in the Mitropolitan Palace, in the Faculty of Teology.
    • in Ismail, in the cellar of the NKVD headquoters on General Vaiatoianu street were found 6 bodies (5 male, one female), with hands tied at their back.
    • in Cetatea Alba, according to a investigation report from November 1941, from the begining of June till 20 July 1941, from the NKVD headquoters in the city were brought 19 bodies and buried in 16 graves. According to the cemetery guardian, the majority did not have cloves, had signs of torture, some where bandaged at the head and the limbs, and had their hands tied. Many more cases of people disapeared from the city were discovered, and it was believed they were deported inside USSR.
    • From spring till June 1943, in Tatarka, in the Romanian occpied Transnistria, a group of specialists from Odessa (Dr. K. Shapochkin, deputy chief of the Medical-Sanitar Direction of the Government of Transnistria, N. I. Grubianu, the admnistrator of the desinfection section, docentI. I. Fidloveski, chief of medecal-legal expertese and Grigore Tatarciuc, gandarm representative of the Odesa pretorial office) have searched a lot of land of 1000 sq meters, were a big number of bodies was found. At first, it was believed these were victims of NKVD repressions from 1938-40, and of deportees from Besarabia and Northern Bukovina, shot by the Soviets because they could no longer transport them. In order to facilitate the putrefaction process, the lot was covered with animal excrements.
A Romanian intelligence report from 1 June 1943, signed by leutenant-colonel Traian Borcescu states that "On the lot called Spolka, situated 7 km from the railline Odessa-Ovidiopol, between the suburb Tatarka and the airfield, common graves of NKVD victims were found. The works to uncover the bodies have started on 22 April 1943 and were done by the Military Pretorial Service of Odessa. From the declaration of inhabitants in the vicinity of the lot, it follows that the NKVD troops were bringing corpses during the night in a covered track, and were throughing them into the common grave, and immediately covered. It also follows from these declarations that the road parallel to the lot was totally forbidden to circulation, and were severely garded.
"The investigations show that the executions have increased in pace after 1940, once Bessarabia and Bukovina were occupied.
"Ioan Halip, Grigore Tatarcu and Alexandru Ivanov, from Bessarabia and Bukovina, currently living in Odessa, have recognized at the place among the bodies their relatives deported by NKVD after the occupation.
"The Commission to examine the corpses and determining the circumstances in which the victimes died has determined that the victims were generally shot in the back of the head from a very short distance. The age of the executions is estimated at 2-3 years, the cloves were characteristic to those of inhabitants of Bessarabia and Bukovina."
On 6 August 1943, the legal doctor Alexandru Birkle, oneof the members of the commission that studied the remains found at Katyn, presented a "Provisional medico-legal report on the investigations at Tatarka". In his commission also were members C. Chirila, subdirector of Health in the Government of Transnistria, and one representative each from the mayor office of Odessa, from the Gendarms unit of Transnistria and from the University of Odessa. According to the report, 42 common graves were discovered, and signs of 10-20 others. In each grave were found around 80 corpses. A total approximately 3,500 corpses lie in the 42 graves, and the total number is estimated at 5,000. Only 516 corpses were exhumated , and of these 486 were already examined medico-legally with the following conclusions:
      • cause of death: shot in the upper back part of the scull, in a few cases, in the lower back part of the scull.
      • shots were delivered from military revolvers, caliber 7 mm and 5.5 mm from immediate distance to the target
      • medico-legal researches have demonstrated that the age of the corpses is 3.5-5 years. From the study of several idenity papers found, it follows that some of the victims were from 4.5-5 years (1938)
      • no lavrae of insects were found, showing tha the executions took place in a cold weather, and that the bodies were buried immediately after being shot
      • the process of putrefaction has been slowed also due to a large number of corpses in a single place
      • of the 486 examined corpses, all had hands tied at their back, with the exception of one, which had only the trace of the tied hands
      • of the examined corpses, 7 were women and 479 were men, of which one was in military uniform
      • 43 corpses had identity papers (exerpts of reports from their arrests and searches), which allowed their identification
      • the ones identified were arrested on the territory controlled by USSR (including from 1940 on from Bessarabia and Northern Bukovina)
      • of 486, 385 were buried, 131 not yet
      • age: 20-30 years - 60; 30-40 years - 189; 40-50 years - 186; over 50 years - 81. 7 females and 509 males. 515 civilians and one military (by cloves)
This obviously are only exerpts from one article. I am sorry that I do not have time yet to put them in a proper form.:Dc76 15:54, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Almost as many people, so many different oppinions there are. People from former Soviet block countries obviously don't have similar views: in many cases these are determined by personal current or historic family circumstances. For example, you will never be able to convince someone whose father was a KGB or STASI officer that the Soviet system was evil: he would rather contradict 100 times the logic. But I do think that the oppinion of WP editors shouldn't be an issue at all here. On the contrary, what matters is what peer reviewed sourses and esteblished information outlets publish. All we can do (and should do) is to organize this information: we can not create information, even if we personally know something, we can only organize the one existing in print.
If you are very interested in the former Soviet system, and wish that your articles not be deleted b/c they do not have the best names, then in my personal oppinion, you should create a sandbox in your user space, and little by little make there a list of all the articles and sections of articles that describe the Soviet/communist system. You will get help from other editors, I am sure. I believe you will discover that there are ca. 50 individual items to be listed, if not more. After that, we (the editors that would be interested to help you) can identify which new articles need to be created, and we can make a nice template, to help the reader navigate through all of these. The subject is too vast to be covered in 1-2 articles, so we need a template to ease, I think.:Dc76 12:43, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Ten szablon nie ma obecnie wielkiego sensu. Kiedyś próbowałem go edytować i z jednym z adminów doprowadziliśmy do porządnego stanu.

Thanks for your message. My principal problem with your edit was that you introduced a new subsection that was a bullet-point list into the article, completely destroying the flow, when there was already a paragraph further up which you could have added to. Moreover, there were no citations, which I'm sorry to say, are really needed when we start to add info on such controversial subjects. I'll go back and wordsmith the paragraph above so that it reflects the fact that Soviet atrocities occurred elsewhere than in Germany, and please feel free to continue editing that paragraph or to drop notes on my talk page.

Re: Misplaced Pages depends on citations in articles

  • Does this rule refers to all articles? There are thousands of articles without any citation. Many of them are labelled as such since ages but not removed.
  • My article synthetized plenty of articles and contained links to them, where you were able to find sources.
  • I personally believe that editing is more constructive than removing.
  • You seem to be not aware - there is a group of people who remove informations about drawbacks of Soviet system. Some of them were involved in this removal. They call me anti-Russian. Is Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn anti-Russian?Xx236 15:57, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

I have started to check your articles - Spatiotemporal gene expression, 0 inline quotations, Mount Wilson - 0. Do you agree that I remove them?Xx236 16:00, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for checking my articles. Yeah, if you want to go ahead and nominate two of my earliest articles for deletion, feel free. Alternatively, you could help improve them. Is your interest in me and my articles based only on my one vote in a AfD discussion? If so, you should probably lighten up. As for your specific points:
1) Yes the citation rule applies to all articles. Lacking citations is not a sufficient condition for removal however, I'm not sure where you got that idea.
2) The language "synthetized plenty of articles" is itself worrisome because synthesis of primary sources is considered original research.
3) I agree that editing is more constructive than removing. However in some cases, merging an article or deleting a redundant article is appropriate. So if you also want to waste time looking for articles that are redundant to Spatiotemporal gene expression and Wilson Peak into which they should be merged, again feel free. By the way, I had little to do with the Mount Wilson article. I assume you intended to refer to Wilson Peak.
4) I am not aware of some anti-anti-Soviet group? Huh? Anti-Russian? What on earth are you talking about? I don't know who Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn is. Maybe you have me confused with someone else. Debivort 20:14, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Holocaust survivors

and other heroic figures may deserve WP pages, but it is really necessary to demonstrate that by more than a single sentence. It's needed to show why they in particular are notable. In particular, there has to be a real cited 3rd party published source that talks about their deeds in a substantial way. Some of the articles youve written on them are not likely to remain unless you upgrade them. If there's not enough material to do so, it is probably better not to write the article, but to concentrate on people for whom you can find material. Just my advice.

I consider it a personal attack if you call me nationalistic, a vandal, a POV-pusher and the like, as you have done several times now. I have ignored your personal attacks in the past, but as you mistook my calm for a free ticket to add more, I will not do so in the future. Please carefully read WP:NPA. Thank you.

AE

Since you are not willing to engage in constructive discussion and repeated your attacks despite my above plea, I chose to discuss your behaviour at WP:Arbitration_enforcement#Xx236 and ask for an outside warning or remedy. Skäpperöd (talk) 15:40, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Notice of editing restrictions

File:Yellow warning.png

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.

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.

I hope you take this to heart. We have asked you for a long time to be more clear, more specific, more constructive, and overall, to edit more and complain less. Please take this as a friendly advice. Thanks, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 19:45, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: Expulsion articles

You are in your rights to announce problems at WP:PWNB, although you should also try other venues, from reaching to moderate German editors at the German equivalent of our project to WP:RFC to reach the neutral editors. You should however do it in a civil and constructive way, that means: 1) follow WP:AGF and WP:CIVIL and don't accuse your opponents of lying or such, this will only escalate matters (see my essay on this here) and lead to you getting banned. 2) We all have limited time. If you want others to help you, make it easy for them: describe the problem in the section asking for help, and give as many links as possible so those who want to help don't have to spend their time looking for when and where. Unfortunately, many of your requests for help or comments on talk look unhelpful, and that creates a bad impression of you. If you think that Skäpperöd is being unhelpful, consider filling a user conduct RfC against him. If the source was discredited at RSN, it should be removed from the articles, if he reverts back you can clearly ask for help per WP:V and WP:RS. Unfortunately, I am not following the Polish-German issues that deeply, due to lack of time, so I see only parts of what's going on - and unfortunately, they are not simply white and black. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 16:58, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Just a friendly word

Although I don't agree with you on some points, I think you are doing a good job on Wiki, pointing out problems and neutrality issues on articles. It takes strenght to endure the endless onslaught of various POV-pusing, or personal attacks. i believe Piotrus would like it better if you would actually wrote more articles, but In my view your attempts to point out problems at articles to others are also valuable.--Molobo (talk) 14:39, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Inscriptions

Hello.

  • it cannot be from latter period (after war Germans were expelled)
  • it cannot be from earlier period (the store lies in a location which was before 1918 lying de facto outside the town)

--Darwinek (talk) 07:39, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Theoretically yes but it is highly unlikely when you think of ethnic composition of the town before and after 1918. German ethnic group was numerous and very strong, economically and politically as well. - Darwinek (talk) 18:24, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Your behaviour

You use the page Talk:Expulsion of Germans after World War II as a blog to air your personal grievances against me and several sources, without saying anything constructive. You don't point to any specific problems and make a case with these, but only make cryptic, general and defamatory comments. Please don't continue that. Skäpperöd (talk) 12:04, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Skapperod he pointed his concerns very clearly and you simply ignored them. Loosmark (talk) 13:43, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Arbitration Enforcement

You are subject to a request for sanction at WP:AE#Xx236. Skäpperöd (talk) 15:25, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

Topic ban

Xx236, for the reasons given at WP:AE, under the authority of WP:DIGWUREN#Discretionary sanctions, you are topic-banned from the subject (not only the article) of Expulsion of Germans after World War II for six months; that is, you are prohibited from making edits related to that subject on any page in any namespace.  Sandstein  13:44, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
