== Your recent actions ==

Misplaced Pages is not forum or soapbox (]), not is it a battleground (]). Users are required to be civil and use civil language - "people must act with civility toward one another" (]). Also, please stop edits to talk archive pages, they are called "Archives" for a reason.

You have been neither civil or reasonable - and you haven't used your edit rights for bettering Misplaced Pages. Instead you are pushing your very highly ] views (which differ significantly from any source in the world, including Soviet and Russian sources. Next time, please try to give ''some'' sources to outrageous claims).

What am I talking about? These: , , , , , , - I will not go to older edits then few days, though.

Now, as for user Beatles FF, I did not ask for his block - although, I have started to suspect that it was the best solution. His highly insulting edit summaries, promotion of racial hatred, edit warring without giving any reasons, refusing to discuss things without YELLING, '''bold''' and civilly ("Well, I get bored of your annoying comments.", "I presume you are a denier of the Holocost"), editing/deleting others and his own comments, refusing to accept even mildest criticism and taking it as a personal attack... I seriously doubt that he would have become a good editor and contributor to Misplaced Pages in the near future.

As for you, I do hope that you can find it in your heart to become civil, calm and reliable editor, who can meaningfully contribute to Misplaced Pages, always following NPOV guidelines, giving sources to your edits in articles - or sources to your claims in talk pages. ] 16:13, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

::DLX, i have been there, i took part in the arguments so don't try to fool me.

::::If you want good edits then check out all the times that Fab Four deleted your lies from articles. Examples of youre lies? easy:
Claiming Estonian SS was "didnt have a politcle wing" (Yeah, right, so they insisted to have the SS initials in their name because they liked the combination of the letters), claiming that the Estonian SS didnt kill any Jews (Thought the Estonians started the Holocaust in Estonia even before the Germans arrived their), and there was many other lies you wrote their, i just gave the to examples that came to my mind. M.V.E.i. 16:34, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

:::::Please, let us stay on one talk page, easier for us both.

:::::Now, here is the edit list for user Beatles Fab Four: . Please go though that and give examples where he "deleted my lies".

:::::I am not sure what you mean by "didnt have a politcle wing", as I am not familiar with the word "politcle". But, being WWII expert that you are, you must know that no Estonian was a member of Nazi party nor did any Estonian belong to SS-proper, only Waffen-SS. Like I quoted in the talk page:

::::::The Nuremberg Trials, in declaring the Waffen SS a criminal organisation, explicitly excluded conscripts in the following terms:
:::::::Tribunal declares to be criminal within the meaning of the Charter the group composed of those persons who had been officially accepted as members of the SS as enumerated in the preceding paragraph who became or remained members of the organisation with knowledge that it was being used for the commission of acts declared criminal by Article 6 of the Charter or who were personally implicated as members of the organisation in the commission of such crimes, ''excluding, however, those who were drafted into membership by the State in such a way as to give them no choice in the matter, and who had committed no such crimes.''

::::::In ], ], a message from the U.S. High Commission in Germany (HICOG), signed by John McCloy to the Secretary of State, clarified the US position on the "Baltic Legions": they were not to be seen as "movements", "volunteer", or "SS". In short, they were not given the training, indoctrination, and induction normally given to SS members. Subsequently the US Displaced Persons Commission in September 1950 declared that:
:::::::''The Baltic Waffen SS Units (Baltic Legions) are to be considered as separate and distinct in purpose, ideology, activities, and qualifications for membership from the German SS, and therefore the Commission holds them not to be a movement hostile to the Government of the United States.''

:::::It is simply ridiculous to think, that U.S. High Commission in Germany or Nurenberg Trials would have declared anything like that if there would have been even minor suspicion that the Baltic Waffen SS Units would have been involved in holocaust.

:::::As for your repeated claim, that "the Estonians started the Holocaust in Estonia even before the Germans arrived", that is very clearly just a lie. See ] - let me quote some relevant passages to you from there:

:::::* Approximately 200 Jews fought in combat in the Estonian War of Independence (1918-1920) for the creation of the Republic of Estonia. 70 of these men were volunteers. The creation of the Republic of Estonia in 1918 marked the beginning of a new era in the life of the Jews.

:::::* From the very first days of her existence as a state, Estonia showed her tolerance towards all ethnic and religious minorities. This set the stage for energetic growth in the political and cultural activities of Jewish society.

:::::* The cultural autonomy of minority peoples is an exceptional phenomenon in European cultural history. Therefore Jewish cultural autonomy was of great interest to global Jewish community. The Jewish National Endowment Keren Kajamet presented the Estonian government with a certificate of gratitude for this achievement.

:::::* The peaceful and active life of the small Jewish community in Estonia came to an abrupt halt in 1940 with the Soviet occupation of Estonia. Cultural autonomy in addition to all of its institutions was liquidated in July 1940. In July and August of the same year all organisations, associations, societies and corporations were closed. A large group of Jews (about 400) were deported into prison camps in Russia by the Soviet authorities on June 14, 1941.

:::::* Round-ups and killings of Jews began immediately following the arrival of the first German troops in Estonia in the summer of 1941, who were closely followed by the extermination squad Einsatzkommando (Sonderkommando) 1A, part of Einsatzgruppe A. Arrests and executions continued as the Germans advanced through Estonia. About 75% of Estonia's Jewish community, aware of the fate that otherwise awaited them, had managed to escape to the Soviet Union; virtually all the remainder (between 950 and 1000 men, women and children) were killed before the end of 1941. Fewer than a dozen Estonian Jews are known to have survived the war in Estonia.

:::::* From 1944 until 1988 the Estonian Jewish community, as elsewhere in the territories controlled by the Soviet Union, had no organisations, associations nor even clubs. The Soviet authorities were intolerant towards Zionism and all Jewry was generally equalled with Zionism.

::::So... let us see. Cultural independence, tolerance towards all ethnic and religious minorities, certificate of gratitude. Then, Soviets occupied Estonia and immediately sent 400 (or 500, number varies in different sources) Jews to prison camps. Very few of them were seen alive ever again.

::::75% of the rest fled to Soviet Union, as it was only way to go (actually, some escaped to Sweden, too - but I cannot find quickly a source for that. Nor is it relevant just now.). Germans came - and murdered the remaining Jews, no surprises there.

::::Soviets came back again. No cultural independence, no tolerance towards all ethnic and religious minorities, no organisations, associations nor even clubs.

::::Perestroika and Estonia regains independence:

:::::* Jewish Cultural Society was established in Tallinn. It was the first of its kind in the entire Soviet Union. Exceptionally in the Soviet Union, there were no problems with registering either the society or its symbols. The Society began by organising concerts and lectures. Soon the question of founding a Jewish school surfaced. As a start, a Sunday school was established in 1989. The Tallinn Jewish Gymnasium on Karu Street was being used by a vocational school. In 1990, a Jewish School with classes 1 through 9 was established.

:::::* Jewish culture clubs, which remained under the wing of the Cultural Society, were started in Tartu, Narva and Kohtla-Järve. Other organisations followed; the sports society Maccabi, the Society for the Gurini Goodwill Endowment and the Jewish Veterans Union. Life returned to the Jewish congregation. Courses in Hebrew were re-established. Thanks to the Jewish communities of Israel and other countries a relatively large library was opened.

:::::* The restoration of Estonian independence in 1991 brought about numerous political, economic and social changes. The Jews living in Estonia could now defend their rights as a national minority. The Jewish Community was established in 1992, and its charter was approved on April 11, 1992. Likewise, Estonia has traditionally regarded its Jews with friendship and accommodation. To illustrate this a new Cultural Autonomy Act, based on the 1925 law, was passed in Estonia in October 1993. This law grants minority peoples, such as Jews, a legal guarantee to preserve their national identities.

:::::* In 2005, construction began on a new building in Tallinn, which will house a sanctuary, mikvah, and restaurant, and will be a memorial to the pre-war synagogue. Opening is scheduled for May 2007.

::::Now... please tell me again, who mistreated Jews? And don't even try to claim that the article is written by "Nazi revisionists", as there are several Jews among the editors of the article - you cannot claim that they would allow any wrong ("Fascist") information to be said about history of the Jews. ] 17:01, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

::::::They had a choice, they were the once who chose it. Again, they started the holocaust before the Germans came.
Who cares what they decided in 1950. It was already the cold war offcourse they will try to suck-up to ex-Nazis to tear the Soviet Union from the inside. They were involved in the holocaust, it's a fact, ask any Estonian Jew. Jews always were in every independence movement so somwhere they would be excepted. I saw a ducumentary with Jews from Estonia who menneged to escape with the Soviets, and also Estinian vitnesses, and they told how Estonians closed hundreeds of Jews in every synogoge and burned them down. You're right about what was with the Jews in USSR (I'm half Jewish, my mother is Jewish, and my grand-grandpa set in Jail there for a short time for teaching Hebrew), but nevertheless, the Soviets didn't give to Estonians to make pogroms at Jews. By the way, at the days of the Tallin Liberator reburial there were many interviews with Jews from Estonia telling how Estonians murdered their people then.
All the Jewqish community activities in the 80s and 90s was spoonsored by the Jews, and dont forget in 1987-1989 it was still the Soviet Union. Estonia is desperate for world support, thats why for now the Jews are safe there. Offcourse there are Jews among the writers of the article, but there are also Estonians.

:You know, you are pushing your personal - and I might add, highly racist - opinion. Come up with a single source of "started the holocaust before the Germans came", because now it has as much base as my claim that President Putin is a Tooth Fairy. And do you really think cold war matters (it had not started during the Nuremberg Trials, fyi), when we are talking about crimes against humanity? How petty-minded can you get? Please look at the sources, the facts... none of them support your version of history, just face it, you are wrong.
:And please do not disregard my other questions/replies, that was the favourite tactic of FBB as well - yell really loudly "You all are fascists" and keep repeating it, no matter what is said by others. ] 17:51, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

::It's a fact and i explained you why and from where i took it. Putin cant be a Tuth Fairy, she's to tall for him. The cold war began when USSR was founded, it just didn't have the name yet. And abou your question, America spreat so much lies about the USSR, like saying Borman is a Russian spy (And todey even they confess it was a lie), and Senathor Joseph MacArthy who even commited crimed against humanity. Infact, USA contenued the previously-stoped cold war already at the Race For Berlin, which the Soviets won. Already at the founding of the United Nations Security Council Britain made shure France will get a seat there so the west could have more seats there (France, the country who lay as a carpet infront of the Nazis). The cold war was always in the air. M.V.E.i. 18:12, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

:::I think I've done with both this discussion and editing Misplaced Pages for today. There is really no point to discuss this further, as you fail to provide any sources (where is the explanation for "why and from where i took it"?) or even look at any source/information I provide. Estonians have never hated or hurt the Jews, that is a simple fact (fyi, my best friend is a Jew, several Estonian "national treasures" are Jews (Eino Baskin and Eri Klas, for example)). Hopefully in the future you can open your mind for different views - for example, read different history books, all Russian, English and American. You cannot presume all of them are lying.

:::: We will prove that '''DLX is a constant lier'''. READ THIS DLX

'''I apologise for the fact that Estonian citizens could be found among those who participated in the murdering of people or assisted in the perpetration of these crimes.'''

M.V.E.i. 21:20, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

I don't see how the Ansip quote makes DLX a lier. The tragic fact is there were Nazi collaborators throughout Europe. The French did not necessarily acquit themselves well, either. All DLX said was Estonia wasn't murdering Jews to make less work for the Nazis when they arrived: which is your contention. All the Baltic states have acknowledged those who were complicit in Nazi crimes. The Latvian president, in fact, just received the <u>highest award which the American Jewish Council</u> bestows.
<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Your tirades about Baltic Nazis ("highest percentage of population participating"--your source would be?) are your opinion only.
<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I do not deny Russia and her Soviet-era veterans celebrating the victory over Nazism. However, I do deny Russia still insisting the Soviet Union "liberated" the Baltics--and that anything anti-Soviet = anti-(anti-Nazi hero) = Nazi. You have been listening to too much Russian propaganda. You are welcome to believe what you wish, but you are not welcome to spew it without reputable sources to properly substantiate your statements.<span style="font-size:9pt; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">&nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; ]</span> 07:03, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

::The Balts started murdering Jews so when German arrive they will see how loytal they are. YOU have been listening to much to Baltic lies that the whole world critisizes. The French colaborate with everybody they are not a role model for a brave nation, but nevertheless, the Balts colaborated more then anybody else. The soviet uniaon Liberated the Baloric states from the Nazis, anyway, the Balts who don't agree with that aw ho dont feel liberated, why dont they agree with that? Because they though that in the Nazi world they would get a place for "loyalty" to the Nazis and finaly will feel "Big People". M.V.E.i.

::: Please provide evidence citing a respected Jewish organization, say the American Jewish Council or the Simon Wiesenthal Center, which backs up your claim that the Balts were murdering Jews to ingratiate themselves to the Nazis before the Nazis even arrived.
:::&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Don't mistake the initial welcoming of the invading Nazis for eagerly embracing Jew-murderers, it was purely a response to the Soviets having been driven out after a year of the NKVD and Red Army having ravaged the Baltics and its inhabitants. The Nazis had their own plans for subjugating the Baltics, but for the moment, they allowed the national anthems to once again play on the airwaves.
:::&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In reference to Baltic Jews, in that first year of Soviet occupation prior to the Nazi invasion, Stalin had already decimated the Jewish merchant ("bourgeousie") class, liquidating thousands of Jews--murdered or deported to their deaths in Siberia, just like the Balts--before Hitler even arrived. If you had Jewish family or relatives in the Baltics who were murdered during the first Soviet occupation, it was Stalinism, not Nazism, that killed them.<span style="font-size:9pt; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">&nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; ]</span> 15:44, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

http://www.jewishgen.org/latvia/SIG_Newsletter/0703_SIG_April_2003.pdf

http://www.jewishgen.org/yizkor/lithuania1/lithuania1.html
and the quotes:
Unlike other Nazi-occupied countries, where most Jewish citizens were put to death in gas chambers, a large majority of Jews in the Baltic countries were slaughtered brutally with firearms and other weapons by their Lithuanian, Latvian, and Estonian neighbors (sometimes under German supervision).

Children in the Kovno ghetto, whose friends had been murdered by Lithuanians, wrote in Lithuanian a bitter parody of the national anthem "Lithuania, Our Homeland":

Lithuania, Our Blood-Land
May you be accursed for centuries
Let your blood flow
Like the blood of Jewish children". (and so on)

:No response? That's just nice. M.V.E.i. 11:59, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

::Firstly, I don't check your userpage for messages unless we are actively discussing something. Secondly, the question here is whether Estonians had massacred Jews before arrival of Germans.

::Your source says "...Lithuanian, Latvian, and Estonian neighbors..". Mass pogroms in Latvia and Lithuania happened, but in Estonia, Soviets had deported all wealthier Jews (remember those 500 that were sent to Siberia? Shop and factory owners, university professors and scientists) and majority of other Jews had already gone to Soviet Union before Germans got there - around 1500 were still in Estonia. There were simply not enough Jews - nor wealthy Jews - for pogroms to happen (I think I will send an email to the professor that wrote it and ask for clarification). Those "smashed Jewish houses" that your beloved Nazi speaks of belonged to those that were already gone from Estonia - killed/deported by Soviets or fled. By the way, why do you think that he, a Nazi, spoke the truth, instead of trying to look as innocent as possible, by trying to drop guilt on others?

::Also, none of your sources actually mentions that Jews were mass-killed before arrival of German troops in Estonia. See : "Of the approximately 4,300 Jews in Estonia prior to the war, between 1,500 and 2,000 were entrapped by the Nazis. These Jews also met their death at the hands of the German Einsatzgruppe.", "...1,000 Estonian Jews were killed three months '''after''' the Nazi army entered Estonia in 1941." , "From early on, the Germans subjected Estonian Jews to harsh measures including confiscation of property and forcing them to wear yellow badges identifying them as Jews. These measures were only temporary as the Nazis prepared to murder all Estonian Jews. German SS and police units, together with Estonian auxiliaries, massacred the Jews of Estonia by the end of 1941.".

::Nobody has denied that there were collaborators - in Baltic countries, same as in Russia and all over Europe - and that they participated in Holocaust. Soviet Union did extensive investigations after they re-occupied Estonia, I think I remember (not sure of this fact, but won't look for source just now - will do that later, though) that they had trials of 16 Estonians for participation in Holocaust. Most of those involved were probably killed during the war or fled Estonia, but altogether there may have been perhaps '''at most''' 100..200 Estonians involved (probably less). ] 10:48, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

:::My friend, now we know that even freaks can start learning how to read. Do you remember his answer: '''none of Estonian ss legioners killed civil jews, Russians, etc.''' Now he admits that the figure is 100-200. It’s a big progress in his sad study, yeah. ] 15:33, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

:::::I am not (and won't ever be) your friend. Don't twist my words, I have "admitted" nothing like that. Waffen SS legion and collaborators are totally different things - these collaborators were not in Waffen SS legion, like you have been repeatedly told, especially since that aforementioned legion was not even formed then. I am sorry, if you cannot to understand even simplest words. Perhaps some additional pre-school classes are required? ] 17:27, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

:::Also, you neglect Stalin's effect before the Nazis arrived. (Krushschev described Stalin as a virulent anti-Semite.) The Soviets deported or killed the Jewish civic and political elite during the first occupation, and Jews were included in the mass deportations of Balts the week before the Nazi invasion. ''www.jewishgen.org'', the very site you mention (these numbers are only with regard to Latvia, the number across the Baltics is obviously a good deal higher):
:::* estimates Jews were deported in the thousands; articles cited estimate 4,000-5,000, suffering numerically proportionally more at Stalin's hands than any other part of the Latvian population
:::* and also suffering more than other ethnicities once deported (research by Dov Levin).
:::Because the Baltics had authoritarian regimes (as did pretty much all of Europe), that does not mean authoritarian equates to (bourgeousie) fascist equates to Nazi. That's Soviet propaganda, nothing more.
:::&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The most heinous manufacture of Soviet propaganda is not that the Soviets liberated the Baltics, but that Stalin and his Red Army were the glorious liberator of Hitler's death camps and saviors of the Jews--conveniently omitting Stalin's atrocities against the Jews of Eastern Europe.<span style="font-size:9pt; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">&nbsp;&mdash;&nbsp; ]</span> 15:38, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

::::THIS RESPONSE IS TO BOTH ESTONIANS. Read the book Tigers in the Mudd, written by a Nazi soldier, where it's written black on white that when the Nazis arrived there were already burning pofroms made by the Estonians. Dont say same as in all Europe, you cant delete numbers from history. They didn't just shut up like the French (And French ain't an example of a people with dignity aren't they, thats why in comedies the French is always a coward), they colloborated more then anybody else, unlike Russia where only a few collaborated, the masses fought against the Nazis, that's why villages were burned and people hung all over, just read this book and other books. The Red Army libarated the Jews, it's a fact, don't try to change it (Like, who are you trying to say saved them, and don't tell me Estonians). YOU DIDN'T EVEN READ THE LINKS, it's written their about the Estonian SS to, your trying to change history thats all. And i'm not a deffender of Stalin, he's a creep alright, but in the competition "Creep no. 1" the Estonians manegged to goin Hittler in the first place, but you dont say congratulations for that do you. The Estonian SS also took part in the murder of Jews in death camps. M.V.E.i.

:AND HERE IS THE KNOCKOUT. The two Estonians here first said that Estonians didn't killed Jews, after a gave them the links that prove they speak lies, they moved to a version that the Estonian SS didn't kill Jews, and here are the links that prove they are wrong:

::I've been following this discussion for quite a long time and I feel I can't keep silent anymore.
::1. ] is not Estonian, just like me.
::2. I really can't remember DLX claiming that "Estonians didn't killed Jews" (your words), so could you point out that place? Otherwise it seems that you are simply lying.
::3. You should really read the articles that you link to, not simply look them up in Google. The second of your links (http://www.ushmm.org/wlc/article.php?ModuleId=10005448) doesn't mention Estonian SS with a single word. Both others are part of Russian propaganda.
::4. Read again what DLX wrote about your "Tiger in the Mud". Do you really think a Nazi soldier is a reliable source? Seems you trust Nazis too much.
::5. A couple of links for you (seems you like adding links very much): http://www.holocausttaskforce.org/speeches/details/2006-07-04/document.pdf (I recommend page 16 especially). And one more - http://home.mira.net/~vanagi/AV/Latvian_Legion.pdf (about Latvian legion). A little quote: "We Americans were surprised with the just, good behaviour, kindness, and first class accuracy of the guards of the camp. Very soon, we found out that the guards of the camp were Latvians. Each of them kept hidden the Latvian national flag somewhere under their German uniform. They explained to us: "you Americans are our real friends and hope. The Germans are our hated enemies. Our dream and aim is the independent Latvia".
::6. I tried to google "estonian ss kill jews" as you offered and got 50 100 results. You might think that's a lot? But then I tried to google "russia kill jews" and got 1 190 000 results! Yeah, Google really is a simple thing to find out the truth. ] 12:41, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
:::1. All those baltic residents are the same for me, if you combine them into one you will get a 1/25 of a nation. 2. Just go to the talk page about the Liberator Of Tallinn, when he was asked how many Jews did estonians kill, he said "o because they didnt participate in the holocaust". 3. For you even if you will read British history books you will say "Russian Propaganda". i gave you facts, so sit quiet. 4. It's funny, you make out excuses to push out reliable sources. It's a reliabnle source because he just told what happend, offcourse he would try to show the German soldiers "as id they had no choice", but still it was recognized as a reliable objective source. He told only the truth there, if he would want to lie he would push it all on Russians, like you do, and he wouldn't agree how strong the Russians are. 5. The links you gave me are not reliable, esspecialy the second one, but the first one to. If you'll enter to Who We Are there you will see that this organization features representetives from many countries, including the Baltic ones, and they offcaurse affect there. It's not nutral. Yeah, the Germans are your Enemies yet you were their uniforms and also "worked hard" for the SS in their name. And offcaurse America would write it, after world War 2 when the Cold War is burning and they need friends agains the Russians.

:::::Actually, what I said was that Estonian SS-Legion didn't participate in Holocaust in Estonia (they weren't formed before 1942, Holocaust in Estonia was done by the end of 1941) - or abroad. This still stands, and you haven't given any sources contradicting that (actually, that "abroad" is questionable, as they were stationed in a city (in Belorus, if my memory serves me correctly), during a murder of Jews there. However, they were one unit out of many there and there is no evidence of their involvement. Also, Germans usually used purely German units in such places.). But enough of that - did you actually read the second source that you gave, ? This is an excellent source about Soviet and German occupations - and Holocaust - which contradicts many things that you have claimed. Everything in there seems to be very solidly sourced in both English and Latvian, cannot say for sure, as I read it only briefly. ] 18:03, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

"The statue at the new location. Photo taken on May 8, 2007 (European VE Day), when a quiet ceremony was held. On the next day, May 9, 2007 (Russian Victory Day), the place was crowded with people and flowers."

4th (with white hair): ] - leader of the Russian State Duma delegation<br>
6th (younger man at the forefront): ] - member of the Russian State Duma delegation<br>

Russian State Duma delegation visited the new location of the statue on May 1st. On 8th May they had already left Estonia. Russian Embassy and the ambassador in Estonia refused to take part in the 8th May activities of reopening the site. Russian Embassy visited site on 9th May.
This photograph is most certainly taken on May 1st.

== On the image illustrating ethnic Russians ==
The article is not about the history of culture in the Russian state, it's about ethnic Russians. There is a wide variety of famous ethnic Russians to represent the ethnicity, and there is no need in providing a picture with those who are in some way not fully representative of the Russian ethnicity. So please, let's keep Pushkin out of this, and let's not confuse ethnicity with nationality (as in citizenship). I'm not that sure about Donskoi myself, I would actually prefer Nevsky, as he is extremely famous (and not for his cooperation with the Golden Horde). However, you can offer some other medieval ruler, if you want. Or maybe a saint, like Sergiy Radonezhsky, though his appearance is inconspicious, whereas it would certainly be proper to underline the rugged nature of Medieval Russians. The size of the image is identical to the one used on the Polish and the English sites, and smaller than the Italian one. Speaking of Mendeleev, the picture is simply not good. Besides, his periodic table isn't used in English-speaking countries, so he's not that famous. At any rate, there is a huge variety of important Russian inventors, but I believe that Mikhail Lomonosov is an adequate representative of the whole Russian scientific community, a Renaissanse man as he was. I'm opposed to increasing the number of pictures on the image. It's an illustration, after all, and not a hall of fame. And we'll have to make the portraits really narrow, since at the moment they properly correspond with the proportions of an average human face. Will it be okay if I simply replace Vasnetsov with Dostoevsky? ] 20:42, 23 May, 2007 (UTC)
: Why Pushkin can't be considered Russian? Because one of his grand-granndfathers was black? It's a stupid argument, I believe. ] 19:45, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
::I agree on that, i mean, Chikovski was half French (which explains his sexual orientation), and yet he considered himself Ethnic Russian thought he was only half Ethnic Russian, and he's the greatest composer of Russia and maybe the worlds. Pushknin is a symbol, he started what eventually ended with Russian literature being the greatest in the world, and he was mostly Ethnic Russian. M.V.E.i. 20:04, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
Donskoy is exelent, but if Ivan III of Russia fits here. With all respect to Vasnetsov, i thing that replace Vasnetsov with Dostoevsky is a great idea. Pushkin was mostly Ethnic Russian. Mendeleyevs table is tought everywere, it doesn't netter if it's called The Mendeleyevs Table or just the Periodic Table. Anyway, about making the image biger your right, so lets agree on puting Ivan III instead od Donskoy and replace Vasnetsov with Dostoevsky, but i still think that Pushkin should replace Yesenin (but i can see that on that we have no concensus, so just lets agree on the Ivan III and Dostoyevski). M.V.E.i. 20:00, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

::Glad that we managed to reach an agreement. I actually don't mind Donskoy at all, it's just that I had certain objections regarding Nevsky. The problem with Donskoy is that he's not so well-known outside Russia. Ivan III is a nice suggestion, but he isn't famous either, so I'd say it's better to keep Doskoy there, since he is so symbolic for the Russians. Hopefully, the rest of the world shall know him better one day. As for Ivan III, his first Misplaced Pages image isn't particularly complimentary, although the icon is fine (even though a bit abstract in comparison to that of Donskoy) and a freedom-fighting duke such as Donskoy would probably be more appealing to the public than Ivan III with his authoritarian style. What are your thoughts on this subject? P.S. Oh, and I actually agree with you on Dostoyevsky. Indeed, it's often noted that literature somewhat overweights the rest of Russian cultural achievements. The same thing as with all the British ethnicities. ] 21:42, 23 May, 2007 (UTC)

::: Bro, frankly, I'm shocked by these Stone Age arguments, or more correctly, crap. "Esenin is a liitle bit better ethnically than Pushkin, as his lips and eyes are right." Bullshit. Absolute bullshit. ] 20:51, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
::::I also still think the Pushkin fits more then Yesenin. M.V.E.i. 09:43, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
:::I think that now it's perfect, we've reached the complete consensus. About Ivan III, actually, to the people he was nice, he was bad to the Boyars, but he had a reason for that. They were cruel to the people and took to much part in the government, but nevertheless, Donskoy is a symbol for the ideal freedom-fighter, he's the most not-controversious man there is Yesterday i wanted to offer Tarkovsky but there is no place there, so the current image is the most perfect it can be, but i still belive that Pushkin fits here.

Here is the quote-"Round-ups and killings of Jews began immediately following the arrival of the first German troops in Estonia in the summer of 1941, who were closely followed by the extermination squad Einsatzkommando (Sonderkommando) 1A, part of Einsatzgruppe A. Arrests and executions continued as the Germans advanced through Estonia. About 75% of Estonia's Jewish community, aware of the fate that otherwise awaited them, had managed to escape to the Soviet Union; virtually all the remainder (between 950 and 1000 men, women and children) were killed before the end of 1941.

==An explanation to what accured==
''Alex, here is the explanation note you asked me to write, you can give the link to it on the page the discussion is now held''.

Because of me being blocked, i could'nt explain many stuff said on me, which usually was wrong understood and shown.
*Among the groups i "hate" Neil gave Israelis because i said "theres no such race as Israelis". I'm an Israeli and i said itwhen someone used a census that says there are 2.5 Million Russians in USA, i said that the same census shows a number of Israelis, and their aint such a nationality. But their really aint, we Israelis are Jews, just like their aint such nationality Rossiyani. I said that so the user i talked to would see that this census talks about Citizenship not Ethnic group. About the other groups, i dont hate any. About the French, it's a joke guys. About the Germans, i like Rammstein, and it came from anger. About the Balts, i don't hate those who didn't collaborate.
*I never called races subhuman, i calles those people who collaborated with the Nazis subhuman, and i still think this way.
*When i really used the phrase "little people" towords balts is because i came from a family of those who fought against the Nazis for the USSR at World War 2, and i had many who died at the holocaust at my Jewish side (Jewish mother), ond of hunger (Russian Side), and some things DLX here said made me mad, i shouldn't loose my temper there.
I relly shouldn't have lost my temper, actually i'm not a conflict person. If anybody wants to know, when their was an edit war on an article i've created i tryed to make peace beetwen the wariers. The current Russian people image came after a compromise between me and the one who uploaded it. I came to Misplaced Pages to contribute, and more in Music then in Politics. I still hold the same views on DLX, but i agree a shouldn't have lost my temper, and be shure from now i will express my views without frases like "little People", i learned my lesson. I'm glad most support to reduce my block to one month, because it's not easy to keep the articles i now write for Misplaced Pages as Word documents on my computer. M.V.E.i. 17:31, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

==Block length==

M.V.E.i., it would be better if you could avoid expressing your political views in any way on Misplaced Pages. There isn't really a consensus on the admin noticeboard about what to do about your block - half want it to be a month, half want it to be indefinite. If you can agree to watch what you say, and avoid making any kind of nationalistic comments, or anything that could be perceived as grossly anti-Estonian, anti-Balt, or anti-French (I think those were the main peoples you kept denigrating), or anti-anyone, I will reduce the block to 2 months (from the date of the original offence) - how does that sound?

In particular, I would like you to stop arguing to DLX. If he says something that upsets you, try to just go and do something else (on or off Misplaced Pages) - you do not have to respond, I think this is what has gotten you into trouble. I will wait to see your response here; if you can promise to be nice, I'll reduce your block length to expire on the 4th of August. I'll also roll back your user page.

I would warn you that any further kind of racism or hatespeech would see you indefinitely blocked and nobody would listen to your appeal then. ]&nbsp;] 21:29, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Some things he said made me mad, like "Estonian SS didn't kill any Jews" (Thought i had many who were killed in the holocaust in Belarus, and i know that the Estonian SS took part there), and like claiming the Holocause in Estonia started with the German arrival thought a German-Officer in the book Tiggers in the Mudd said that when the Germans arrived the Estonians already finished most of the Jews. During this argument, i lost my temper and talked uncivil, and that was my mistake, which in the future i will avoid to make. I'm not Anti-French (it was a joke, probablly not a good one) or anti-German (i'm a fan of Rammstein) and i'm not Anti-Baltic, just anti those who collaborated with the Nazis.

Digwuren created document against Petri Krohn. All i can say is that always when someone looses a war, he starts cursing the winner, and that's what happened, after Petri won the war here. Alex puted this page in the category of Miscellaneous pages for deletion, which is the right move, but Nevertheless, i dont think that a user who creates hate-pages on Misplaced Pages desurves to stay unpunished. That is a hate page which's only intention is to humiliate another user. May i say, that by creating this page Digwuren humiliated only himself. M.V.E.i. 16:55, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

::::The reason there are few references is that in the initial stages of the compilation, it was intended for a private map of ]'s weird ideas. ''Know thy enemy'', as the old Romans said. I only started adding external references when I thought it might be of wider use -- and somebody not familiar with his history might consider his advocating some of the weirder ideas -- such as the "Bronze Soldier as a place of worship" -- unbelievable otherwise. I believe, however, that pretty much everything is traceable to actual ]'s quotations -- with the possible exception of the semiartificial "In the beginning ..." cutoff, which I borrowed from ].

:::::Thats the whole thing, you've taken real facts and you showed them as rediculous once, except adding compliments towords Stalin, but that Petri never said. And about the Red Army, for many, they are god, at least for all of those that were turned to slaves by the Nazis. Ask any Jews from Auswitz, or every Polish that was sent to labour camps. Read any book of a holocaust survivor, and in every book you could read how the people waited for the Red Army, and how the people were happy when the Red Army came. The Red Army saved the world. Who didn't want the Red Army to arrive? Those who collaborated with the Nazis, those who were Politzeis while the Nazis were in control, those who during the Nazis felt high because of them being ethnicaly close to the Germans. M.V.E.i. 11:11, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

::::::::Exaclly, the world is not black and white, so you can't denie that the Red Army saved the world. Stalin is a criminal, and nevertheless, this was not what the ] was about. Nobody in the USSR liked him, but not for him the people were fighting. They were fighting against occupation, against those who burned their houses and took their lands, against those who came to destroy. During the war people didn't even think about Stalin, even people who were perviously hurt by Stalin went to fight against the Nazis for the red Army (like the father of my father, who was a war-hero fighting for the Red Army against the Nazis, thought his father was a peasent killed by the NKVD at 1930, on fales ocusations of "anti societ propoganda). So as you can see, real-freedom lovers didn't like Stalin, but they knew Hittler who openly wanted to turn them into slaves is much worse. M.V.E.i. 16:43, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
:::::::::There was good saying about that how Soviet and German occupations changed, rough translation: "one robberer saved us from another robberer". I do not deny that Russians had full right to fight aganist Hitler, but that did not give them any right to occupy baltic states at first place(which btw was done by Molotov-Ribbentrop pact), kill their political and cultural elite, and then after war continue occupying for 50 years.--] 19:57, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
::::::::::::Wow wow, for those 50 years of "occupation" the Baltic states were technologicaly improved and rebuilt. I'm not in favour of occupation, i think it was not fair what was done to the Finns, but about the Baltic states, if USSR wouldn't occupie them then Germany would, USSR couldnt alow itself to make this mistake in the long run. The Soviet soldiers were not "robbers", the NKVD, yes, but the once who were hurt by it the most were the Russians themselves.

:::::::::::::Ah, at one sentence you say how nobody liked Stalin etc, and in other one you already start justifying his actions, interesting why I am not suprized at all. And that "technological improvization" is classical example of soviet propaganda. Pre-war Estonia was at Finland's level, currently it is still far behind even though economical growth at last few years has been extremely fast.--] 20:29, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Finland back then was not very developed, now they are a modern state (and must i say, a beautiful one, by the photos i've seen, but that i belive it always had). Anyway, as part of the USSR, in the 60s and 70s it was more developed then Finland because then it was the "Golden Era" of USSR. It had an economic crash in the 80s, which continued in the 90s, but that all the USSR-CIS had. And the fast economic growth comes not thanks to the Baltic governments but to the natural proces of "stabilization", it happens in the whole CIS. And another thing about Finland, don't forget that World War Two never touched her territory, that helped her to develope nice and fast (I'm talking about the war itself, not about the Ice War).

M.V.E.i, if you promise not to add the controversial category to people's user pages then John or me would immediately unblock you.

I, personally, do not like the new category and rather have it deleted. The reason that it is not helpful for the Encyclopedia and potentially can be quite divisive. We already have Babel userboxes. People who has native level of Russian language are probably belong to Russian culture in some way. The way you have added the category seems to put people with vaguely "pro-Russian" point of view. It makes very easy to canvass pro-Russian users into any editorial conflict. I think it is wrong, editors should act as individuals rather than large discipline parties.

== Redirection, moving and deletion ==

Hi,

It is usually easy to move an article - just press the Move button (next to the Edit button). It would rename the article and put a redirect on its name. Just be careful, moving wars are very disruptive, so if the move maybe controversial ask the opinion of other people working on the same article. Obviously it does not needed if you were the sole author. If you want to rename an article use the Move button rather than cut-n-paste. This way we attribute all those people who contribute to the article.

To make an article a ] you just put a magic text <nowiki>#Redirect ]</nowiki> instead of its text (or press the #R button in your Edit toolbox).

Only admins can delete an article. Ordinary editors could only indicate that they want an article deleted. There are 3 types of deletions ] - speedy deletion for a small subset of uncontroversial deletions, ] for the other unconraversial deletion and ] (and other XfDs) for all other deletions. Just paste the appropriate template (and file xFD if applicable) and some admin will handle the rest ] 08:35, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

I contribute reguarly to Russia related articles, including that info about the Soviet Union in WWII and the intro to the Soviet Union involvement in ] article , and almost all of the Eastern Front images there.

== Soviet POW casualties support ==

Hoped that I could get your support here - http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:World_War_II#Soviet_POWs_and_Image:775_144844401_big.jpg - because I believe you'll agree with me.

On the World War II page I uploaded and added a picture of dead Soviet prisoners of war and wrote in the caption "Moat with the bodies of Soviet prisoners of war who died of starvation and disease in detention camps. In all, an estimated 2.8-3.3 million Soviet POWs died in German captivity". It seems that ] is trying to put the number of Soviet POW dead at only 1.2 million using Krivosheev's source, when it is clearly known that around 3 million Soviet POWs died in German captivity, and there is overwhelming consensus as you can see from the amount of sources I provided. You can see in the page history - http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=World_War_II&action=history

I provided a lot of references to the 2.8-3.3 million figure as you can see if you look in the image caption, but in the talk page he is trying to put the number at 1.2 million http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:World_War_II#Soviet_POWs_and_Image:775_144844401_big.jpg --] 12:09, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

I really don't see how any of the images can be changed/removed.

Not to mention it would have to remove the other important images already there. The Auschwitz image has to stay, representing the Holocaust (11 times more people died in the Holocaust than the entire losses of Britain/US combined). The image of Nazi's has to stay to represent that the world was fighting against Germany/Nazism. Really I don't see how you can replace any images.--] 08:56, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

== External links in the ] article ==

You wrote on my talk page recently:
<blockquote>About the links, they are needed, even the Russian once. I was told by several administrators that if i have a Russian link that could help i should give it, because it might have importent information. Maximum a Russian speaking administrator will check it. And the more i give the better it shows that it's a well known band. I already had articles deleted for having "only 1-2 links". Except giving an offical link we must give the information from a "third party", and the more the better.</blockquote>
I have to respectfully disagree. First of all, have a read of the policies governing the use of external links on Misplaced Pages:

*]
*]
*]

The key guidelines here are:

*''Although external links on content pages provide useful information, Wikimedia projects are not search engines or link repositories. They should be kept to a useful minimum, and provide relevant and non-trivial information that isn't present in the page.''
*''Links should be kept to a minimum. A lack of external links, or a small number of external links is not a reason to add external links.''
*''... it is not Misplaced Pages's purpose to include a comprehensive list of external links related to each topic. No page should be linked from a Misplaced Pages article unless its inclusion is justified.''
*''Each link should be considered on its merits, using the following guidelines. As the number of external links in an article grows longer, assessment should become stricter.''
*''Links to English language content are strongly preferred in the English-language Misplaced Pages. It may be appropriate to have a link to a non-English-language site, such as when an official site is unavailable in English; or when the link is to the subject's text in its original language; or when the site contains visual aids such as maps, diagrams, or tables.''

I believe this covers the reason for removing all the links that I have removed, as well as answers all your questions in that regard. On a side note, if you're getting your articles deleted because they have too few external links, then you should really go through the complaints procedure, and I would certainly help you in that.

If you believe that some or all of the links should stay, then the burden is on you to justify their relevancy to the article, and conformance to the Misplaced Pages guideline on external links, on a one-to-one basis. ] 09:36, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Those who usually delete many and nominate many for deletion are usually people without a real editing history (i go thru their Contribution section), those who dont understand what Working on Misplaced Pages means. For example (And i'm not talking about Dvar), a good article but without references. I always say to people there instead of supporting deletion, try to find them yourself don't be lazy help it.

:I'll try to do that now, nice image! ] 08:38, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Did you Grandfather measure them or was this his POV? If he has the data maybe we can add it. Is he a reliable source? I scrapped a users junk before on Chinese height because it was OR and POV pushing and so followed him to other articles cause I knew what he was doing. Drenched was familiar with him and wanted him gone too. Do you think it is reasonable to say on an article about Human Height that Northern Chinese are "the superior race" cause they are the smartest and have the tallest potential and would be the tallest if they didn't avoid the sun, didn't eat soy or rice, didn't wear skin whiteners etc which affect verbal IQ not spatial IQ? The article is about height, not embarrassing pseudoscience.I also should add I spend 4 months of each year in Taiwan and I am aware that the height of people here in Australia is significantly taller than that in Taipei, both young and old. There are very tall people in all countries, but how evenly arethey distributed? If I want to know the truth I rely on measured data not POV's even though this really pisses the opinionated pushy people off.] 04:47, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

The engineering of the soviet armed forces has a proud history as their wartime performances can attest. The Chinese people have contributed much to the world, the invention of gun powder, silk and a majority of the world's prostitutes (Russia is also a strong competitor). Height is a relative term, but on the topic of relatives I can only imagine your grandfather was a midget as the average height of the Chinese during world war 2 was low enough to make mugsy bogues look like a pro basketball player without his jersey on.] 09:57, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

==Protection==
I can't revert to any particular version. From the protection policy: "Protection during an edit war is not an endorsement of the current version. Editors should not ask for a specific version of a page to be protected or, if it has already been protected, reverted to a different version. Instead, editors should attempt to resolve the dispute on the related talk page." ] 11:31, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

:The ] isn't something to be taken lightly; usually it's reserved for scenarios where a rule is interrupting an obvious, common-sense situation, is invalidated due to circumstances, or is outdated. I would need pretty strong reasons (such as consensus being reached on the page) to invoke the ignore-all-rules rule. Were the IAR to always be used, we'd basically have to junk our entire existing policy structure. ] 15:59, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

== It's cool, but a reminder... ==

:: There is peace, and it's cool; Don't worry, I haven't taken anything you said personal. That does not however mean I approve of your methods - I still think your language, conduct and methods have been questionable; I don't necessarily accuse you of it, but I want to state firmly that Misplaced Pages is not a place for political or nationalistic agendas. In the future, to avoid such conflicts, I suggest you read and comply to these Misplaced Pages guidelines:
# ] - that is, don't automatically assume that other Wikipedians are POV, just because they disagree with you.
# ] - that is, don't accuse others of vandalism, when there is a clear dispute about Misplaced Pages contents. Don't call other persons "snobs", don't say that others' opinions are irrelevant - your views are not more valuable than others. You will only make enemies, if you continue doing this.
# ] - don't campaign among a particular community, in this case, Russians, in order to influence people to support your views. Misplaced Pages guidelines state that you may ''inform'' people about an issue, but shouldn't urge them to support '''your view''' in particular. This is disruptive. The honest thing would be to inform as a many people as possible, in a neutral way, by posting information about the issue on regular article talk pages, not only on Russian users' talk pages.

I hope you consider this in the future. My regards, --]<sup> ] - ]</sup> 20:59, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
:The canvassing thing, i didnt know the law then. But the other things? I dont see anything nationalistic in trying to get an NPOV. I still think that the image you made was Western ethnocentrism (which could be easily called political agenda). We didnt ask to make the big image Soviet (though we had the right for that, 75% of the Axis forces were sent to the eastern front to fight the Soviets and still we won), we wanted to make it nutral. I got mad because i didnt understand how could you oppose to that if i kept everything you had in your image and even write in the image details that most is based on what you did. Nevertheless, now the image is nutral and that's why i decided to support it and re-bring up this suggestion previously offered but ignored by another user. Please notice that my party complitely supported it, which proves that we wanted NPOV. If you'll check the template history you'll see that after we reached a compromise another user who didn't participate in the argument reverted it to mine image again, and Miyokan reverted it back to the map explaining that these was the compromise reached (and if you remember, me and Miyokan were the most active supporters of mine new suggestion). ] 21:21, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

:First, Dostoyevski and Tolstoy are irriplaceble.

::I think 12 images is excessive. In any case Sergei Yesenin should be kept. Perhaps a picture of a sportsperson, eg Lev Yashin? That picture of Akhmatova is horrible and she is not well known, I didn't even know who she was. Put a picture of a model or sportsperson for a woman (eg Maria Sharapova is well known all over the world). But like I said, 12 images is excessive, I don't think any ethnicity template has more than 8 pictures. --] 15:09, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

== Tchaikovsky image in Russians template ==

Could you replace the Tchaikovsky image in the Russians template with this better image of him , we don't have to show all the Russians as old men. Also, I strongly object to the removal of Sergei Yesenin, could you put him back into the template, he looks very Russian, which is what the template should represent, what Russians look like, preferably instead of Tsiolkovsky. Yesenin is not less well known than some of the others there.--] 01:35, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

== Yesenin ==

I doubt that Stanislavski, Tsiolkovsky, Tsvetaeva, or Korolyev are more well known around the world than Yesenin. Considering that the 5 images you added were all your choice, could you please reinsert the Yesenin image in place of one of those (Tsiolkovsky, Korolyev, Stanislavski are all half-Russian) and I will be happy with the template.--] 09:42, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

When driving near Minsk, you can see.. there is no other word - wast castles of the rich. But the common people don't live that well, quite the opposite, especially away from the cities, where there is greater poverty then I've seen anywhere in ex-Soviet Union (admittedly, I haven't been to ]). Lukashenko has kept the economy stable, but that means it is permanently bad. We actually are starting to have in Baltics not only Belorussians, who have left their country for political reasons, but also those who have escaped starvation. Shops on the countryside have nothing to sell, not even bread, just antique boots. In the cities it is better, but nothing like in Baltic States, not even like in Ukraine.

:What happened was a couple of editors who were not involved in the discussion we had came and removed the map we had agreed upon, because it has problems (for example, it colors Vichy France as part of the Axis, but this is not the case).

::It's not that clear cut in regards to Vichy. They never signed the Anti-comintern treaty, and the French soldiers on the Eastern Front were volunteers, not the French Regular Army. They were co-belligerents, yes, but not allies; just like Finland. I do know that Oberiko is pretty busy right now reworking the WWII article, so I don't think he'll have time to fix the map. There was a non-animated map he proposed earlier in the template talk page when the issue with the animated one having errors came up. You may want to take a look at it. ] 18:18, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

:::Yes, that's the one Oberiko suggested. You're right, it's not as nice as the animated one, but it could be a good stop-gap until Oberiko has the time to fix the animated one. ] 18:29, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Bi-2

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Bi-2 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. KDS4444 09:57, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of FREE!MUSIC

The article FREE!MUSIC has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Tagged unsourced and non-notable since 2014. No indication of notability per WP:WEB, and I can't find significant coverage of the site's name or URL online in WP:RS.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
