Please refrain from adding nonsense to Misplaced Pages, as you did to User talk:Thebainer. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. -Patstuart 14:34, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi MarkStreet

Mark, this is Wiliam Mauco, one of the more active editors here in Misplaced Pages on Transnistria related topics. I see that you have added some comments to the talk page of Transnistria. Your participation is very welcome, like everyone else's, but please do not delete any comments (yours or others) after they have been posted. If you wish to change something that you have said earlier, you should instead use the strike tag. That way, we preserve the record and the conversation flows better. The exception to that is personal attacks. Misplaced Pages has guidelines in place for allowing personal attacks to be removed.
An unrelated subject, but something which I still think should be mentioned, is that your newspaper uses Misplaced Pages as a source, including some of my own work and that of another editor. Both of us are pleased and flattered (and have said so on our respective Talk pages), so there is not a problem with that and I know that Tiraspol Times is far from alone in this practice. However, we would be even more flattered if you would please include acknowledgement by making a reference to Misplaced Pages in the articles that use this information. Especially when you copy verbatim, please... - Mauco 15:56, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi Alex

I'm the editor of Tiraspol Times, I am happy to deal with you and any queries you may have, Let me assure you that we are not what you think and say we are.


In our game reputation is everything so we genuinely try to balance our reports but pleasing everyone is impossible in that region .

However, If you see any report in Tiraspol Times that you feel is not balanced , tell me.

We don't publicise our address and phone numbers becaise we operate online and to be frank we simply are not there a lot of the time.

Tiraspol Times is a very small part of what we do internationally, but it is independent and its best to keep it like that given the nonsense some people claim about it.

Our reporters have been very seriously threatened and for that reason we like to keep safe given we are not native to your region.

One thing I want to achieve outside my professional role is to try and take the steam and hatred out of the dispute there, Let all sides be heard is the basis for better understanding.

If we share different views thats fine I will listen and learn from you.

I admire passionate people so please keep in touch and continue to add to the issues in a positive manner

thanks

Tiraspol TImes

If you are an editor of Tiraspol Times, please explain why your on-line paper never reported the claims of Helsinki Comitee for Human Rights in Moldova about the infringements of the referendum in Transnistria http://conflict.md/stiri.php?ID=1448 ? If you have doubts about the correctness of HCHRM report, why you don't ask for an interview with its chairman, Stefan Urîtu?--MariusM 16:34, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

150 international observers declared the referendum as fine and at the time not a single voice raised an issue. that is a fact. It is apity they did not raise their concerns at the time to me.

thanks for your comment all the same, well spotted

Dignitas and threats

Thanks Mark for your answer, but I believe you still should check HCHRM report and ask Urîtu for an interview. Corner him with your difficult questions! HCHRM was founded in Tiraspol in 1990.

You tell: "Our reporters have been very seriously threatened". Who threatened you? As "Tiraspol Times" is only an online paper, most people from Transnistria don't have internet connection, the few who had anyhow can read plenty of criticism on internet regarding Smirnov's rule, so for who are you so dangerous?

I would be interested in the "Dignitas" organisation from Slobozia. You made only a brief mention about them (to explain that its leader is indeed free), but for me is a serious issue - people with pro-moldovan views were arrested one month before the referendum - that is raising question about the fairness of referendum. Maybe is only a coincidence, but in a normal democratic country such arrest will develop media interest. Either is linked with the bus explosion or is linked with some intimidation of pro-moldovan activists, in both cases media from a democratic Tiraspol should be interested to clarify (not only media from Chişinău). Why not an interview with Ghenadie Ţăran?--MariusM 13:25, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Mark, if some of your journalists have been receiving threats, you are not alone. I have gotten several theats too, and I have never published anything in favour of Transnistria in any publication. I am merely a researcher for AOL and I also work a lot on Misplaced Pages and other online venues. But I have been threatened with death threats by email, and with retaliation by the Romanian Secret Service (this is documented here on Misplaced Pages), so I can imagine what guys like you are facing. I agree with the fellow above who says that you should interview Ghenadie Taran. Don't interview Stefan Uritu because he will just lie like he always does, but the Ghenadie Taran interview would be great and please don't censor it in any way. - Mauco 16:03, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
