Ms Harpy, I was wondering if you could help me with some minor business. I've added some information to ] from OSCE report. It mentions a place in Kharkiv Oblast called "Havrishi", but I can find no trace of this place on any maps, or in any Google searches. I figured that this was some kind of transliteration error, or something like that, but I can't seem to figure it out. I'd like to be able to know where it is, so that I can verify the account for the sake of the article. I thought I'd ask if you could transliterate the name back into Cyrillic, so that perhaps I can look for it on Ukrainian/Russian maps or on the Ukrainian/Russian Misplaced Pages. Thanks very much in advance. ] — ] 21:39, 17 July 2014 (UTC) | |||

Dear Iryna, here are some articles about the Ukrainian community in Portugal which, given that it is the 2nd largest here, after the Brazilian, may be a reason to eventually start a Misplaced Pages article on it, which I would be glad to do, and I'd be glad if I could have your help.: http://www.jn.pt/PaginaInicial/Sociedade/Interior.aspx?content_id=1307234 ; http://portugal.mfa.gov.ua/pt/press-center/publications/1009-os-ucranianos-que-esto-em-portugal-so-uma-grande-oportunidade-para-os-nossos-pases ; http://economico.sapo.pt/noticias/ucranianos-em-portugal-vao-fazer-ultimato-a-embaixada-amanha_185634.html ; http://www.ionline.pt/artigos/portugal/ucranianos-portugal-unidos-no-apelo-paz-na-ucrania ; http://www.noticiasmagazine.pt/2014/os-ucranianos-portugueses-estao-a-preparar-se-para-a-guerra/ ... Well... There are plenty of articles. These are all in Portuguese, they're all in Portuguese, but you can use Google Translate to translate them. Notice that most of the Ukrainians living here are from Western Ukraine, so I guess what positions a lot (but not all) have about this conflict. Though I've also known a couple of Russian speaking Ukrainians here. And the articles I've chosen, I found them interesting but they might not be, necesseraly, the most reliable ones, and there are far more with plenty of statistics and information. When you wish, you can reply to me. I'd be very glad to edit an article, both in Portuguese and in English (in Ukrainian, I'm afraid I can't, but I'd be glad I could), about the Ukrainian community in Portugal!] (]) 04:16, 5 August 2014 (UTC) | |||
:Apologies for not getting back to you on this matter sooner, {{U|Mondolkiri1}}. You left a message regarding creating an article on the diasporic community a couple of weeks ago, but I've been tied up IRL. I'll take a look at these articles, but I'm not certain that I'm the right person to involve myself in a neutral capacity. I've withdrawn from contact with the Ukrainian diaspora in Australia due to having become exasperated with the neoconservatives who are strangling rational discourse within the community. Unfortunately, diasporic communities don't elect their representatives... they're self-appointed and very, very pushy. Let me think on it. --] (]) 02:06, 6 August 2014 (UTC) | |||
::Well, I'll see what I can do by myself about the Ukrainian community in Portugal. I'd be glad, as I said, if I could have your help, but there are a lot of sources, in Portuguese, about the Ukrainian community here, which, as I said, is the 2nd largest after Italy in Western Europe (I don't know why, since this is almost like Greece now, there must be a reason).

== Concerning to the user Black Future == | |||
I've already expressed my concerns to RGloucester about what I perceive as being, in my opinion, somewhat disruptive edits, and I quote what I said: | |||
* I think Black Future has been posting some edits that seem to me to be somewhat disruptive to me, unexplainably deleting sources, adding unsourced figures and distorting quite a lot the content of a source that he added, and I 1st deleted and I added again with the right information that is in that source. Do you agree? Should he be warned?] (]) 08:44, 2 August 2014 (UTC) | |||
:Again, there are some edits from this editor that seem to me to be somewhat disruptive. In one of them, in the summary of the edit, the editor made the following accusation: "Convenient when sources are blanked, content changed, and when content is re-inserted, "it's not in the sources" is used as an excuse to blank again". Well, now Black Future added the source (concerning to the 80% of eventual Russian volunteers)! But it wasn't there before. Therefore, I didn't blank any source stating that there might be 80% of Russian volunteers. Now it's correct (since, later, this editor added the source that actually says that). On the other hand, he or she is removing sources, without any explanation.] (]) 21:10, 8 August 2014 (UTC) End of quote. | |||
I've also addressed Black Future personally about the edits on 8 August. What is your opinion about this, Iryna?] (]) 00:35, 9 August 2014 (UTC) | |||
::I did not respond to your query because I usually prefer not to get involved in that type of thing. ] — ] 01:28, 9 August 2014 (UTC) | |||
::::{{ping|RGloucester}}In my opinion, he or she is disruptive about the edits in Misplaced Pages, concerning the situation in Ukraine. He/she has not been as stupid as others in order to engage in actual vandalism behaviours (that's what I guess). But making false accusations, while he/she is actually deleting the sources without providing any explanation, distorting the content of an article in particular, that I kept there, but which stated something completely different than what the user wrote in the article (and I edited the article according to the content of that source, later changed by RGloucester about the phrasing and grammar (I guess) but without distorting in any way the content), ignoring any calls for discussion in the Talk Page before the article is changed by him/her, and replacing information in the article without proper sources provided... I think that's enough for me to consider this user as disruptive.] (]) 21:57, 9 August 2014 (UTC) | |||
== Cut & paste from my user page == | |||
'''Response to a message received from Iryna''' | |||
I am at a loss. I changed "played a substantial role" to "perpetrated," because no one else beyond the Ukrainian Insurgent Army was involved in the massacres of Poles in Volhynia in 1943 and this is supposed to be my "personal analysis?" Snyder and Davies do not mention any other perpetrators and there is no footnote to show the source of the view that the Ukrainian Insurgent Army played just a "substantial role." The same goes for the "similar actions," while despite atrocities, there was no policy of ethnic cleansing of the Ukrainians living in post-war Poland. There was a policy of deportation which is clearly attested to by Snyder. With your changes, the article becomes misleading. | |||
As to the Volhynia article, I agree, I did not cite a source, though there are plenty. Who do you think was there before Vladimir took over? Still, what is neutral? I am sure that you would not agree with the Russian take on Kievian Rus. | |||
Pernambuco1 {{Unsigned|Pernambuco1|04:31, 9 August 2014 (UTC)}} | |||
:Firstly, read ], ] (particularly ]). As to Snyder and Davies being the only sources, that ''is'' contestable, except for the fact that, thanks to ] pushers (which your content changes currently reflect on you as being), other sourced material has been removed during edit warring. Even where there are a couple of sources selected out of many, many more potential sources, please try to abide by avoiding ] in paraphrasing the material. | |||
:The remainder of your first paragraph here also indicates your ] of 'no policy'. No policy does not mean that ethnic cleansing did not occur (again, there are sources which, through edit-warring, have been removed). This is an online encyclopaedia, not a nationalistic narrative line depicting good guys vs. bad guys. | |||
:My personal take on the "Russian take on Kievan Rus" is that Wikipedians follow the policies and guidelines. All articles are written ], and the article on ] has been written collaboratively, with discussions taking place on the corresponding talk page. That's what talk pages are for. If you care to follow my editing work and discussions on talk pages ''and'' work out my personal position on any subject is, you'd be the first person to do so. So far as I'm concerned, that means I'm doing the right thing in following the spirit of Misplaced Pages. | |||
:As you are new to Misplaced Pages, I hope you stay on and join us as an editor. Please familiarise yourself with policy, guidelines and get a general sense of how Misplaced Pages works. Happy editing! --] (]) 00:45, 10 August 2014 (UTC) | |||
== Galicia (someplace somewhere) == | |||
*After having read the extensive discussions on this matter, I realise that you'd been dealing with this matter for ages. By chance, yesterday, I came across the article whilst doing some work on Austria-Hungary articles, and found that it had been moved to disambiguation with "(East Central Europe)", despite a discussion on the talk page, and despite no clear consensus in favour of that move. I also note that "East Central Europe" does not exist, as far as I can tell. Hence, I got a sysop to move it back to the original title with "(Eastern Europe)". I hope that this has not been in anyway disruptive, however, I think that any move should only take place as part of an RM discussion, given the contentious nature of the debate. My own conclusion on the matter is that there is no worthwhile reason to move away from the status quo, as I said on that talk page. ] — ] 15:27, 14 August 2014 (UTC) | |||

Is there any news on Iryna?
Have any page watchers heard from Iryna? I've been thinking for a while that it's been a while since I saw her name appear on my watchlist, and when I checked how long it had been today, it's actually longer than I thought. I know that she'd been unwell for some time. I just tried e-mailing her but the message bounced. Cordless Larry (talk) 21:04, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
- Pinging Ymblanter, Faustian, RGloucester, Pincrete, My very best wishes, JimRenge, LynwoodF, in case any of you have heard anything. Cordless Larry (talk) 17:06, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
- No, I do not know anything. Ymblanter (talk) 17:07, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
- No, I have heard nothing either. I have been concerned about her for a while. She is one of those people who make it a pleasure to work on WP. We co-operated briefly on a Ukraine-related matter, but that was long before the invasion began. LynwoodF (talk) 18:19, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
- Don't know anything you don't know ie that there were health concerns up to mid-2020. If you find anything out, please let me know. Hopefully she'll turn up and tell us to get off her talk page!Pincrete (talk) 18:34, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
- I have no news from her. I assume that she would be still editing if she would be able to do so. JimRenge (talk) 18:54, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
