Instrukcije

Hey Estavisti. I trust you know more about Yugoslavia than I do, but I noticed you blanked the page for Instrukcije. If you think the article should be deleted (I have no idea if it's legitimate or not), you might want to post it on Votes for Deletion. Thanks. -JJLeahy 04:39, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Mihailovic page

Hey. I think you might have gone a little bit too far in excising the contributions made by Bosniaco to the Mihailovic article. For the most part they were well written and rebalanced the POV. In any case, we should try and come up with some kind of agreement on how to incorporate his changes into the article rather than simply removing them. --tracer_bullet 15:01, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

Serb portal

Of course, I like the idea! Sooner or later, Serbs are definitely going to have their portal on en: - only question is when. I'll talk with the guys both on IRC channel (visit sr: IRC), and on our live meetings, to see who is interested, and in which way can help. Only problem is whether we have reached "critical mass" of users to start it just now. -- Obradović Goran (tak 23:17, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Btw, I saw that you have informed some other users from SCG about your idea. You missed to contact Zocky, who is one of the most active users on en: from Serbia (he lives in Slovenia) -- Obradović Goran (tak 23:17, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

I will try to setup Serbia and Montenegro portal (as a country portal). It seems that Zocky has been away for a while, though, but I am sure he'll help when he's around, and let you guys know. --Dejan Čabrilo 00:57, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

Actually, let's wait for a while and see how many people will participate. Though, I strongly urge to create Serbia and Montenegro, instead of just Serbia portal. There isn't much good in alienating people from Montenegro :) --Dejan Čabrilo 01:00, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

I also agree and want to participate in that portal. Дошло време да се окупимо --Sasa Stefanovic 03:11, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

I agree with the idea. However, I don't think that SCG portal is better then Serbian. There is a sense to make Serbian (language based or ethnical), ex-YU (similar cultures) or Serbia, Montenegro and RS/BiH (ethnical), or for ex-SC speaking people (language based), but SCG portal is nowhere (because there is no SCG nation). --millosh (talk (sr:)) 03:46, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

The more the marrier. If there is enough folks to create something like "Western Balkans" portal, I'll go with that. However, I have a strong feeling that Serbian Portal will soon become Serbian Orthodox Christian Portal. Besides, at least I can't really contribute much to "Serbian Ethnic" portal, as I don't know much about Serbian ethnicity. Also, Serbia and Montenegro is one country (at least, for now), which would cover politics, culture, geography, etc. --Dejan Čabrilo 04:21, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

Serbian portal would naturally include everything about SCG so your knowledge will be useful there. And why excluding Montenegro? Nikola 16:31, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Serbian Misplaced Pages didn't become "Serbian Orthodox Christian Misplaced Pages" and there is no reason that some Serbian Portal becomes "Serbian Orthodox Portal". (Or you think that it is necessarly that Croatian Portal would become "Croatian Catholic Christian Portal" or that Bosniak Portal would become "Bosniak Sunite Muslim Portal"...?) Serbian culture (as well as in the sense of ethnicity) exists, but SCG culture doesn't exist. (It seems that you know a lot about SCG nation...) And I don't think that SCG geography is so much relevant to make portal only about that. Montenegrin culture exists, too; but I don't think so that cultures (as well as politics) from Serbia and Montenegro are more related then cultures (and politics) from Serbia and RS/BH; etc. --millosh (talk (sr:)) 07:25, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

"Cultures from Serbia and Montenegro" is relevant term as "Cultures from the northern part of USA" is. Montenegro and Serbia have different politics; cultures and languages in SCG are cultures and languages of Balkan... So, the idea of "SCG national portal" is relevant only to US foreign policy. --millosh (talk (sr:)) 07:25, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

So, we need at least two portals. One Serbian and one wider (ex-YU, ex-SC, Balkan...?). However, if you really want to make SCG portal, you have my support because I think that all people should have portal where they can talk even about US foreign policy related to SCG. --millosh (talk (sr:)) 07:25, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

This is a hard question, because a SCG portal would be pretty much useless unless it included the Serb Republic, the history of Serbs in Croatia/Hungary etc (i.e. unless it was a de facto pan-Serbian portal). Personally I think an ex-YU portal would make more sense but I doubt any other group (Croats, Slovenes) would want to be grouped together with Serbs/Yugoslavia (their loss...). However, there's no reason not to sound them out. BTW, if I don't reply for a while, it's because, with my customary bad timing, I made this proposal two days before going away for a month --estavisti 11:00, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

The idea is nice, though I myself don't use portals much. But now when I'm looking at this palestinian portal I like it very much :) I'm not sure I could do it though. If/when it is done, I also think it should be Serb portal, not SCG portal. Nikola 19:33, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

Ok, so if "Serbian ethnic" portal was created, which topics would it cover? --Dejan Čabrilo 07:12, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Same topic as other portals. Introduction, featured article, article of the week, portal news, categories... Nikola 16:31, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

Sorry. I've been on a vacation. Naravno da želim srpski portal. --Dungodung 07:13, 14 July 2005 (UTC)

Agreed. Sorry, I have been absent for a month. --Ninam 00:45, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

OK I give a full support. Couple of days ago I suggested the same thing on Serbian wiki not knowing it's being discussed in here. I gave some examples of what we should be taking as a good example. I'll just copy paste it in here.

• Палестина - веома прегледно, кратко и информативно. Постоји мали текст о Палестини, издвојени чланак је о Јасеру Арафату, Најважније вести (не километарске као на британском), Да ли сте знали?, нешто о култури, википројекти и листа ствари које можеш да урадиш како би побољшао чланке везане за Палестину. Оно што им фали у односу на друге је издвојена слика и листа категорија а и одељак о историји још није завршен. Такође исувише је мрачан (но ипак бољи од нападно-комунистичког кинеског :)).
• Израел - све што сам добро рекао за Палестину + све што сам рекао да тамо фали овде постоји. Мислим да Палестина једино води по избору чланка. Арафат јесте тај који вам прво падне на памет док за Универзитет у Хаифи (изабрани чланак из. портала) нисам ни чуо. Такође одељак вести само наводи изворе али не и саме вести. Тако да мислим да би комбинација израелско-палестинских портала била одлична за нас.
• Аустралија - врло информативан на малом простору. фале информације о култури и историји али то је ваљда повезано са државом.

Вреди погледати:

• http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Romania
• http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Ireland
• http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Poland

I think Israeli one is the best except of the news part. Anyway like I wrote in Serbian I think the combination of Israeli and Plaestine portals would be the best solution.

Come all and see how i make portal SCG on sr: wiki, i copy postal Israel. --Sasa Stefanovic 02:56, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

Serbia and Montegro articles

Hi, I see you're in the category for those Wikipedians from Serbia & Montenegro. I'm trying to create a project whereby seperate articles for just Serbia OR Montenegro are written to an acceptable level, especially considering the possibility that 2006 may see the two nations seperate and become independent states. If that were to occur Misplaced Pages should have articles written to the standard of other national articles. It would be useful to have the input of Wikipedians living in the area. Please post any views here, not at my talk page. Thank You Grunners 18:24, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

3RR on History of Republika Srpska

You've violated the WP:3RR policy today on this article. I'm going to give you a warning here but that's a blockable offense and if you make another revert I'm going to think very hard about a short block. Please, stop reverting....at this point the word usage needs to be worked out on the talk page. Rx StrangeLove 00:42, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

Premestanje clanaka

Primetio sam da si nekoliko clanaka (na primer Njegosa ili Karadjordjevice) premestio tako sto si isekao tekst iz poslednje verzije clanka i nalepio ga negde drugde pa zamenio redirektom. Molim te, nemoj to da radis! Postoji funkcija move koju za to treba koristiti kad god je moguce, jer se kad se clanci pomere na taj nacin cuva njihova istorija dok ako se to uradi ovako kako ti radis ona nije vidljiva. Ukoliko nije moguce pomeriti clanak na taj nacin, mozes napraviti zahtev na WP:RM i neko od administratora ce ga pomeriti.

Hoces li da napravis zahteve za sve clanke koje si tako premestio? Nikola 22:01, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

Hello there! Glad you liked the business about Tall Slavs. To be honest with you, I'm only talking from about 70% experience - my biggest ambition is to silence my Dutch friends who think that people from Southern Europe MAINLY Yugoslavia are ALL shorties... all right, these Dutch lads are big but I know that down the Balkans - they are the biggest. Now I'll tell you where I have been and where I havn't within that region...

Pljevlja, Bijelo Polje, Savnik and Zabljak plus villages - these I'd say are NORTH and not WEST as such.... they are mostly HUGE

Niksic - not particularly tall though a few

Podgorica, Cetinje, Danilovgrad - quite short really, like Belgrade if that (but I kept quiet there) the coastline - not much different to Podgorica

Berane Rozaje Ivangrad etc (east) - short I am afraid to say...

Trebije - ABSOLUTELY HUGE

Dubrovnik - Bigg-(ish)

Split - A bit bigger...

...on the whole, I thought Northern Montenegero did it BUT...here is where I havn't been (yet): Kolashin, Herzeg-Novi, Ulcinj and Bar (on the coast, I've been to Tivat and Budva only)...

Dubrovnik, yes - Neum - yes, Split - yes , north of Split, they tend to shorten again... it's wierd but I am interested, can you please tell me the towns where MonteHerzegoCroatoSerbos (or whatever) are actually tall... I'll then do research!

BTW, I'm told they are larger than life in Croatian Lika, both Croats AND Serbs - is this true? I havn't been there yet...Celtmist

...if you could, I'd love that - to upload the map.... any way you can point out exactly which regions are tall? I mean I never understood, north-western Montenegro - it is diamond shaped, so there can only be north, south, east west and central - no north west or south-east! or did you mean NORTH plus WEST? and which is Old Herzegovina? and does the southern strip mean Split? or just the part south of Neum, Bosnia? I guess 185 is allright, probably a bit below average as so many blokes there from your way are over 2 metres... Celt

Serbophobia

Unfortunately I didn't quite understand you objection in your edit comment. Please restate it more clearly, in talk:Serbophobia page, without reference to antisemitism. mikka (t) 03:56, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

I see. Well, other "pseudophobia" articles must be fixed as well. I doubt that someone was treated from Russophobia in a psycho clinic. As for "seriously", I hope my recent additions show that this word is used very seriously. Unfortunately I cannot write more without original research. mikka (t) 04:05, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Mihailović

Ne očekuj da ću da revertujem stvari koje Bosniac napiše. Zapravo, trebalo bi puno toga što je on dodao uključiti u članak. --dcabrilo 08:02, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

Dragoljub Draža Mihailović

Hi. I am sorry but currently I am much to busy in the real world to take care of this. Fixing the page moves was about as much Time as I could spend recently. Hope ChrisO or another admin takes care of it. Good Luck -- Chris 73 | Talk 12:34, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

Mlogo bre jezika govoriš

Uh bre, što si izobrazovan. Kolko jezika samogovoriš!... Mlogo bre, mlogo. Samo ti je u glavi jedna jedina pamet, ona srpskog nacionaliste koji slaže čim otvori usta.--Tomahawk Cheerocky 15:09, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Da, htio sam te obavijestiti da si nacionalista. Ali nakon ovog tvog pisanja moram te o još ponečemu obavijestiti. Prvo kao nacionalistu. Točno je to da u nekim mojim selima nema još električne struje, ali ima svjetla, pa noću spavamo, a danju gledamo. A znaš zašto u tim mojim selima nema struje? I to u selima čiji su, što bi tvoj srpski dio rekao načalnici, svoje akte osim hrvatskim pisali još i latinskim jezikom. Zamisli, u jednom bihaćkom selu gdje nema ni struje upis u zemljišne knjige obavljao se latinskim jezikom 1400 i neke godine. Ali tad dođoše tvoji pretci, oni isti koji su se prije petnaestak godina povampirili, i na čelu sa svojim vojvodom koji je daleko dogurao uzevši tursko ruvo na sebe i postao Hasan-paša Predojević, dakle dođoše oni, ti tvoji pretci i njihove gazde Turci i iskopčaše nam struju na pet stotina godina. Ali eto, neki moji latinski polupismenjaci sačuvaše listine latinske i horvatske pa znamo tko smo i što smo, kao i to da nam je Bihać početkom 16. stoljeća brojao 10 tisuća muških glava i tri biskupa u njemu sjedila i Petar Zoranić (vjerojatno) uživao plodove prvog južnoslavenskog romana. Onda kad je kod tebe cvjetala Resava, i nekoliko stoljeća prije nego će Vučina takav jezik kakvim se ti ispražnjavaš uzdići na pijedestal najmodernijeg narodnog jezika i odrezati vas od vlastite civilizacije. Sve prosto, ali nije čisto, jest jasno, ali smrdi, jer izmetine se ne pokrivaju niti uvijaju u civilizirane lokucije. Izmet na dlanu i u ustima. I ovo je mjesto gdje ti nudim drugo priopćenje. Ono o tvojoj prostoti. Ne samo da si nacionalista već si i prostak. Pa ti kao da si u ćenifi rastao, a ne u Londonu koji je prvi na Zapadu unio napravu za pranje klozeta u tu nus-prostoriju. Pogledaj malo svoj tekst meni upućen. Najfrekventniji pojmovi su klozetarski stručni izrazi. Što li je samo u tvojoj glavi kad ti ovoliko dreka izlazi iz usta? Ili si možda zadržan u razvoju, u analnoj fazi. Što bih ja radio u Londonu s tobom? Ti bi me samo po klozetima vodao. Hvala, ljepše mi je u mom selu.--Tomahawk Cheerocky 15:53, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Baš je paradoks: ljudi puni govana seru čim zinu,

a ostaju puni govana, džabe 'deru tišinu. ;)

Vidim da si poslao sliku Image:Raso.jpg i oznacio je kao GFDL mada na srpskoj Vikipediji nema takve oznake. Zbog ovoga bi mogao uleteti u nevolju, bolje nemoj to da radis i savetujem ti da sam pobrises tagove sa drugih slika koje si poslao na taj nacin, ili ih zamenis sa FairUse itd.

An image that you recently uploaded, Image:Raso.jpg, is lacking a source. This a mendatory information, so could you take a minute to fill this in ? Else this image might have to be removed. Thank you. Rama 08:01, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
