This is a notice to let you know about ''''']''''', a ] subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering ], ], ] and other workflows (]). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found ].

If you are already subscribed to ''Article Alerts'', it is now easier to ] and ]. We are also in the process of implementing a ], which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the <code>display=none</code> parameter, but forget to '''give a link''' to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Misplaced Pages:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at ].<!--Addbot-WP-Message-Article-alerts-01-->

<small>Message sent by ] to all active wiki projects per request, Comments on the message and bot are welcome ].</small>

Thanks. — ]&nbsp;{<sup>]</sup><sub style="margin-left:-4.0ex;">]</sub>&nbsp;&ndash;&nbsp;]} 09:34, 15 March, 2009 (UTC)

== ] ==

The article on ]'s piano teacher, ], was recently moved by a German editor, ], to "]." Elsner originally hailed from ] in mixed-population ], but he spent the bulk of his life in Polish-speaking ] and ].

Another editor has objected to the two middle names, "''Anton Franz''," by which Elsner is not commonly known (in Poland, Elsner's name appears with the single, different middle name, "''Ksawery''"). ] has proposed that the article be moved to "Joseph Elsner (composer)," to disambiguate the subject from two architects who are also called "Joseph Elsner."

I have counter-proposed that the article simply be reverted to its original title, "]," the name that the subject used for most of his life.

Interested parties may look in on the discussion ].] (]) 20:49, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

I have reverted the article's title to the original "]." ] (]) 05:06, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

== Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons ==

The ] (UBLPs) aims to reduce the number of unreferenced biographical articles to under 30,000 by June 1, primarily by enabling WikiProjects to easily identify UBLP articles in their project's scope. There were over 52,000 unreferenced BLPs in January 2010 and this has been reduced to 35,715 as of May 1. A ] is now running daily to compile a list of all articles that are in both ] and have been tagged by a WikiProject. Note that the bot does NOT place unreferenced tags or assign articles to projects - this has been done by others previously - it just compiles a list.

Your Project's list can be found at ]. Currently you have approximately 158 articles to be referenced. Other project lists can be found at ] and ].

Your assistance in reviewing and referencing these articles is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions, please don't hestitate to ask either at ] or at my talk page. Thanks, ] (]) 17:15, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

:Please inform ] od this; he is the one who usually takes care of Poland unreferenced BLPs. Thank you, --<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">]|]</span></sub> 06:14, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Task 1: rescue useful images listed at the bottom of ] (] and below) and ] (] and below) by finding sources.

Hi, I belive that the ] should be renamed to the "Democratic Party (Poland)". I think it would be a better translation of the name, and that current translation is wrong. Firstly, "alliance" means "sojusz", and not "stronictwo", which would be just "party". Word stronictwo, literally means 'a side of something', or 'a part of something', eg, a party. Futhermore, Polish title is in adjective form, so even "Democratic Alliance" would be more correct in this case. As such, "Alliance of Democrats" would rather be translation of "Sojusz Domokratów", than "Stronictwo Demokratyczne. What do you think? ] (]) 20:07, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I like writing Warsaw-related articles, such as about its neighbourhoods and buildings. But, I'm not the best when it comes to writing about WW2, and it's kinda a big topic when it comes to this city. So, I thought maybe there would be people with better expertise on the WW2 in Warsaw, who would like to collaborate with me. For example, I would write most of the article about some neighbourhood, and you would help me cover the revenant WW2 events in the history section etc? Idk, I just thought I could try to ask here. Feel free to write to me if you are interested :) ] (]) 21:13, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
For a long while, ] has been working on improving ] article. That article has grown too long, and he is now splitting it into subarticles (See ]). The way that the article is being split is however problematic. Instead of using the scheme we developed years ago (and reflected in the ]) new articles are being created, potentially resulting in loss of content (as they seem to be based on content split from Orczar's rewritten History of Poland and not on the old versions) and thus result in the loss of information from the old subpages or (at least in one case) overlapping with the current ones, creating forks. New articles are:
* ] was merged and redirected to ]
** how comprehensive was the merge? Has all info from the old articles been incorporated? I am afraid that the merge was not comprehensive; just one quick test: started with the mention of ], he is not mentioned in ]. With all due respect to an editor who has put much time into working on History of Poland, I don't think it is fair to just replace old versions with one's own, without at least an explanation on what information is being removed/added.
** new name is problematic, as it breaks with our established naming scheme (and is potentially misleading, as the article covers Angevin dynasty as well)
** edit history wasn't merged (i.e. years of edit history are still present at ); that merge now requires an admin to fix it (see ])
** Talk page (old discussion, tags, assessments) needs to be moved and merged: ]
* ] was merged and redirected to ]
** same issues as above: merge comprehensiveness, new name, edit history and talk pages need to be merged
* ] has now two forks: ] and ]; should it be merged? The forks are also orphaned.
* PS. Can somebody notify ] of this discussion? Hopefully we can work things out before post-1795 history is affected by forks/mergers. --<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">]|]</span></sub> 19:43, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

The "]" lead has, until recently, described the composer as Polish, of expatriate-French paternity. For some weeks, several editors, including two non-Polish ones who use Polish-appearing names, have been advocating the view that Chopin was French by birth, since, under the '']'', his Polish-resident French-born father never lost his French citizenship and, indeed, automatically imparted it to his Polish wife upon their marriage. The sole source given for this argument is an online article (http://diaph16.free.fr/chopin//home.htm) by Emmanuel Langavant, ''agrégé de droit public, professeur à la faculté de droit de l'université de Lille II''. In reliance on this authority, the misleading and unorthographic expression, "''Polish born'' composer and virtuoso pianist of Polish-French descent" has been introduced into the article's lead.

:The intense argument there over the lead sentences - centering on whether he should be described as Polish or Polish-French - doesn't rely solely on the Code Napoleon argument - it also concerns his father's ethnicity, generally described as French, and on ] saying that F. Chopin obtained a French passport in 1835. (Another source gives an earlier date). A Gbook link to Szulc's he-got-a-French-passport-in-1835 was at some point refd with a Google book link that has gone away there - so see it here . ] (]) 21:24, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
:I find the phrase "a Polish composer and virtuoso pianist of French-Polish parentage and citizenship" pretty helpful, although something about him residing in France for a big chunk of his life may be helpful as well. I'd suggest saying "parentage, citizenship and residentship." --<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">]|]</span></sub> 17:14, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

:::I agree that saying he had Polish citizenship is a bit of a stretch. We do know that he had French citizenship (because we have a copy of his French passport) but to write of "French-Polish parentage and French citizenship" would only spark an edit war. ] (]) 18:56, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Dividing Warszawa Główna railway station into two or three articles

Hi, I wrote more in detail about my proposal in the article talk page, but in short, the name Warszawa Główna railway station throughout history was used fir three different stations, one in the 1930s/1940s, one in 1940s–1990s, and current one built in 2021. As such, I want to propose to creating separate articles for them.Artemis Andromeda (talk) 01:01, 27 September 2024 (UTC)

Renaming the Alliance of Democrats (Poland) to Democratic Party (Poland)

Hi, I belive that the Alliance of Democrats (Poland) should be renamed to the "Democratic Party (Poland)". I think it would be a better translation of the name, and that current translation is wrong. Firstly, "alliance" means "sojusz", and not "stronictwo", which would be just "party". Word stronictwo, literally means 'a side of something', or 'a part of something', eg, a party. Futhermore, Polish title is in adjective form, so even "Democratic Alliance" would be more correct in this case. As such, "Alliance of Democrats" would rather be translation of "Sojusz Domokratów", than "Stronictwo Demokratyczne. What do you think? Artemis Andromeda (talk) 20:07, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Any people intrested in writing about WW2 in Warsaw, who would like to collaborate?

Hi, I like writing Warsaw-related articles, such as about its neighbourhoods and buildings. But, I'm not the best when it comes to writing about WW2, and it's kinda a big topic when it comes to this city. So, I thought maybe there would be people with better expertise on the WW2 in Warsaw, who would like to collaborate with me. For example, I would write most of the article about some neighbourhood, and you would help me cover the revenant WW2 events in the history section etc? Idk, I just thought I could try to ask here. Feel free to write to me if you are interested :) Artemis Andromeda (talk) 21:13, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
