Albanian Wikipedian?

Go our Albanian TF or click here to access changes on the Albanian public watchlist. --sulmues (talk) 22:52, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Is this multilingualism for real?

Hi. I noticed on your userpage that you claim to have level-5 professional ability in a lot of languages in addition to native shqip. Is that for real? I mean, how is that possible? Heroeswithmetaphors (talk) 06:11, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

It is possible. I have a degree in phylology and linguistics and I have started learning foreign languages since I was 5. And I can show you some people who know more than 30 languages. Or I can mention to you that Fan Noli, the biggest Albanian translator, founder of the Albanian Orthodox Church and former Prime Minister of Albania was perfectly fluent in 13 foreign languages. It is normal to encounter polyglots from small countries such as Albania: you'll find the same thing with some people from Georgia, Denmark, or the Netherlands. As a matter of fact, even Skanderbeg was known to be fluent in 6 languages, so that ain't that strange for Albanians, :-). sulmues (talk) --Sulmues 11:44, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Labove

Are you sure that Labove e Zappes is officially cald just Labove? What about Labova e Kryqit near Libochovo?Alexikoua (talk) 21:46, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

100% sure. I know the area pretty well. Labova=Labova e Zhapes=Labova e Madhe (=Big Labova), whereas Labova e Kryqit is a smaller village, not very far. The pretty church that you can see at the pic (), is at the Labova e Kryqit. sulmues (talk) --Sulmues 21:49, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Again :)

Hi Sulmues, thanks again for your help. Your efforts are greatly appreciated and I won't forget how you stood up for me.

It may surprise you to know, but I actually view this sanction as a positive development. It gives me the excuse to step away from editing to focus my time on conducting a thorough investigation into the issues you and I brought forward in the WP discussions. My goal is to file an official request with the Arbitration Committee in the medium-term future to review the disparities currently present in country article ledes. If you are interested, you and I can work on coming up with a proposal. I believe there would be a substantial number of editors willing to help out with this task as many people share our concerns. Would you be interested in such a venture? --Monshuai (talk) 04:28, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

I don't know if it helped. I still disagree with your topic ban as I think it's unjust. There are a lot of editors who do edit-warring 10 times more than you and get away with it. The only thing you might have been accused of is your insistence in the talk pages. This is very unusual to require a topic ban and too harsh. While I overall respect Sandstein in this decision, I think he hasted too much, but he might want to reconsider in the future. I would gently request that you hold on for some days and prepare very well to start a project of revamping the ARBCOM. I strongly feel you will have my support there. sulmues (talk) --Sulmues 14:00, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

Task force

Congratulations for your insistence. I gave up in September because I suffered for some time as you can see from contributions. However, it would have been better to ask for other people's support. Is there any other Albanian left in wiki besides you?Aigest (talk) 12:13, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

I started to heavily contribute in December because I realized there was nobody left and other people were messing up all the Albanian articles. It has been an incredible experience, but lots is left to be done. This message of yours in my talk page is the only support I have gotten from Albanian contributors in good standing so far and I warmly thank you for it. sulmues (talk) --Sulmues 13:55, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

There are some changes in Albanian Task force article you might check and comment Aigest (talk) 15:09, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

I did. I am speechless. This is what I call working on a wikiproject. Thank you! --sulmues (talk) 15:17, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for adding me as a member on the wikiproject, though I think my contribution is very modest due to busy work. Piasoft (talk) 22:54, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

I agree and I thank you for adding me too on Albanian wikiproject.--Alblefter (talk) 00:04, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Vasil Papakristo & Viktor Eftimiu

Since Bobostice belongs to Drenove ] municipality, he fits perfectly there. Vasileios is mentioned in Libohova since Labova e Kryqit belongs to this municipality. What do you thing?Alexikoua (talk) 16:45, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

I think that that's fine because we don't have a Boboshtice article yet. In addition you'll find many more famous people from Labova e Kryqit in the future, so for now we can keep Vasili in Libohova, until we have a Labova e Kryqit article and then we move him to Labova e Kryqit. Btw, I want your apologies in the thread above, so that we can properly start to collaborate. sulmues (talk) --Sulmues 16:48, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

I really appreciate your recent constructive initiatives.Alexikoua (talk) 22:10, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

I'll take that as an apology, if you allow. A new greco-albanian friendship is born. Let's not ruin it! sulmues (talk) --Sulmues 22:19, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

Hmmm...

Watching what I'm doing much? Ioeth (talk contribs twinkle friendly) 02:29, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Gotta guide properly everyone who wants to report me. --sulmues (talk) 20:08, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Pashalik of Yanina

Please do not continue reverting back and forth; rather, discuss this civilly on the talk page of that article. Thank you.  f o x  (formerly garden) 12:00, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Believe me I am trying. But I will never accept that for the History of Albania only Greek authors are used and US authors such as Chekrezi and UK authors such as James Pettifer be not used. --sulmues (talk) 13:45, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Beqir Balluku

I made some minor corrections you might want to check --ObserverFromAbove (talk) 21:18, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Good edits, thanks! --sulmues (talk) 20:08, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Sali Butka

I'm trying to expand the article on Sali Butka and I was wondering if you have any additional sources. So if you do please help its expansion.--ObserverFromAbove (talk) 22:20, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

I think we're fine. No more sources are needed and I liked your edits. --sulmues (talk) 23:00, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

I moved Aoos to Vjosë, since Vjosa is the predominantly used name in English. What do you think?--ObserverFromAbove (talk) 20:58, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

That was long overdue, Vjosë is for 90% in Albania, I don't see any reason why it should be in Aoos. Will say more in talk page. --sulmues (talk) 00:11, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

wp:ani

I kindly ask you to calm down. Since you are on civility supervision you should better avoid such kind of aggressive editing ], which can be easily considered as wp:trolling.Alexikoua (talk) 14:50, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

I am very calm, and I think that I have the same right to be doubious about something that you have. --sulmues (talk) 16:02, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Civility Parole

I see that you continue to consider trolling comments as 'advice' ]. I will say it again this is not a battleground.Alexikoua (talk) 15:04, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

That was as much of a trolling comment as these ones that you liked to use at Vangjel Zhapa article (, , , , , ). Don't use double standards. And I didn't consider that an "advice" but a "warning". --sulmues (talk) 15:07, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

In light of your recent trolling, I have reported you at WP:AE. Your disturbing habit of restoring trolling comments by other editors, whether it is Piasoft's trolling on Vjose, or Lceliku's TOV back then, has got to stop, one way or another. Thank you. Athenean (talk) 20:33, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Hey

Do things all go like that around here?--— ZjarriRrethues —  08:13, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

What can I say? , :-)--sulmues (talk) 12:54, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

March 2010

Please stop. If you continue to delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at User talk:Sandstein, you will be blocked for vandalism.  Sandstein  14:41, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Eh? What are you talking about? I just edited my own comment!!! --sulmues (talk) 14:54, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Sorry! You are right. I misread your edit.  Sandstein  15:10, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

No problem! --sulmues (talk) 15:14, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
