Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this ''''''.

== BONAPARTE = ARBËERSHË ==

Dear sir.
You communicate that change you made to House of Bonaparte is wrong.
The family has Arbereshe origin.
On 1903, Adolf Thieres write: "When Joseph Bonaparte, the older brother of Napoleon Bonaparte became King of Naples on 1806, Arber / Albanians that went to welcome him, he told say:" And Bonaparte family is from arberesh origin. "Adolf Thieres , x-president of Franz said: Bonapart's older brother admin on 1806, that his family was an Arberesh origin and had very close relationship to Ali Pasha. On Bonaparte's family, Professor Robert d'Angely with origin from Corsica enlight in his book " Enigma of race of origins and languages of Pelasg, Arian, Hellen, Etruscan, Greek and Albanian ". It is a book with seven volumes and 30 years with a work from this professor. In pages 113-117 he wrote that Napoleon Bonaparte was an Albanian origin, same as it was Great Alexander and Scanderbeg.It is interesting that the professor says in his book that the old Surname of Napoleon was "Horse-best" (in Albanian good-hours) and not as Greeks Kalimeros lie.

Additional Details
Napoleon apparently also swore in an 'unknown language' when becoming furious. Smth makes us conclude that this language couldn't have been a language near France, because I don't think Italian, German, Spanish, Dutch or English were 'mysterious' idioms that nobody not only didn't understand, but apparently never even heard to. Another thing which might indicate smth, is Napoleon's treatment of one of the generals who conquored Egypt (who's name I cannot recall). He was besieging a fortress in Egypt protected by Albanians for the most part. The general gave the Albanians his promise that if they surrendered the already lost fortress without further resistance, they would be pardoned and left to go. But when they abandoned the fortress, they were disarmed and executed (2,000 men according to the source ).
2 years ago

Napoleon upon hearing what happened, fired the general and confiscated his medals, stating that 'French soldiers do not fight that cowardly' - did Napoleon do this because he felt kinship with the betrayed warriors who defended the fortress, or because he was a fair soldier or because of his blood from ......Arberesh?(it could be the latter, but didn't Napoleon's men slaughter people wherever they went, more or less?)??

== Castle of Irchonwelz ==

Was it all copy and pasted verbatim? I think not. Also i was given permission to use stuff from the owners website to improve the article. Would you care to self revert or shall i just rewrite everything? --] (]) 08:21, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
: Please rewrite. What I saw was pasted together from text blocks from at least two sources, with several full-sentence chunks copied verbatim. That's never good. Not only does it create copyright/plagiarism issues, it also never produces a good, coherent text. (About incoherence: e.g., what role does the "sale of the domain of Ath" play in the argument? What is the medieval French term translated here as "stronghold", given that the English word "stronghold" doesn't actually have the specific meaning described here, in normal usage? "It is often forgotten..." is unencyclopedic. The whole passage about the "controversy" is unsourced. "sits on the site and houses..." is ungrammatical.)
: About the image, please feel free to ask me if you need advice on how to handle the copyright issue. Basically, you need an explicit statement from the copyright owners stating what legal conditions they wish to release it under (like e.g. ]). A mere "you may use this" is too vague. ] ] 08:42, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

::: Nope, I'm afraid not, sorry. "]" is when we use an image ''without'' the owner's release, because we have a legitimate need to use it for purposes such as analysing and discussing the image itself as an object of encyclopedic coverage. That's not the case here, and it would also never pass ], because it would be obviously replaceable with a free image somebody else might take of that building.

(1) No, I have no connection to the IP editor. (2) The current version does not reflect consensus.

I have cited policy repeatedly. Meltzer meets the criteria for a reliable self-published sourced. As a result, the statment meets the threshold for inclusion per WP:V. Nobody has given a valid argument that overrides WP:V. We have personal preference (nowhere in any policy does it say a second source is required) and a complete misunderstanding of WP:OR (no Misplaced Pages editor is trying to put any sort of spin on it, other than the exclusionists, who claim that any number ending in a 7 is too precise and therefore not worthy of inclusion). I have provided quotations from numerous policies and guidelines, only to be met with links to policies that are either irrelevant or do not support the exclusionist position. If people are unable to come up with a valid argument, that is certainly no reason to seek a topic ban for the other side. This whole debate is over 7 words, which can be reliably cited: "Dave Meltzer stated (or estimated) an attendance figure of xx,xxx". It is completely verifiable, and the majority of the opposition comes from people turning a blind eye to the very first line of WP:V: "The threshold for inclusion in Misplaced Pages is verifiability, not truth—what counts is whether readers can check that material added to Misplaced Pages has already been published by a reliable source, not whether we think it is true"...not that truth would have anything to do with it, since I can't imagine anyone not believing that Meltzer made that statement. As I have demonstrated repeatedly, Meltzer is a reliable source because he is "an established expert on the topic of the article whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable third-party publications." In fact, he has been cited by numerous reliable publications for his work in determining WrestleMania attendance figures (in the disputed attendance of WrestleMania III. ] (]) 14:40, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

I can see that the consensus is currently leaning clearly towards Guy's view, and I note that {{user|Enric Naval}}, a highly respected and experienced outside observer, has made a well-argued policy-based statement in support, together with most of the previously involved editors now agreeing with these two. Since RfCs are typically allowed to run for a somewhat longer period, I'll leave this one for a couple more days, and then see if there is need for a formal closure and determination of binding consensus, which I could do as an uninvolved admin. For the time being, given the indications of consensus leaning this way, I would strongly advise GaryColemanFan leave the status quo in the article as is when the protection will expire in a short while, until a formal determination is made (or, better still, a consensus is mutually acknowledged by the parties). I also recommend toning the volume of dispute down until then. ] ] 20:12, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team

I looked it up after their recent posts, I'll keep an eye out for them. -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested «@» °∆t° 23:27, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

Reminder to participate in Misplaced Pages research

Hello,

I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Misplaced Pages. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.

Take the survey here.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
