Perhaps reading what I actually added to the text and not liveing in the past would help. Here is the text in its current form.
The myth is that he (Stalin) had a melt down as soon as the Germans attacked and this is just a myth. And if it is so poorly written then just rewrite it. The changes I made to it removed any prevoius errors it had in it. So stop removeing it and re-add it ] 12:40, 17 November 2006 (UTC)


And the text you copied into my talk page IS NOT what I added this was what I added and what you deleted, and the fact that you copied an earlier version of the text indicates that you have not re-read the new version

==Myths==

Some myths have become facts over the period of time and that is why you need to prove them wrong

For example the myth about Polish Cavalry chargeing into German tanks.

Some things also need to be spelled out for example that dolphines are not fish and not all birds can fly.

I have no clue about the Origin of the myth just that it is cemented into the public minds and that is why it needs to be proven wrong.

And yes the direct copy of "The last red Tzar" is nice but you still need to speel out that Stalin did not crash on the 22nd of june.

Also one needs to mention that he did not make any obvious defensive preparation which might provoke a German attack, in the hope of buying time to modernize and strengthen his military forces.

So these 2 things must be in the text. ] 22:19, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Xeni Jardin

Welcome, C33! I noticed that you placed a vote on Talk:Xeni Jardin. Participation in the community is encouraged, of course, but your status as a brand new user means that your vote might not be counted. Please understand that this is a common practice on Misplaced Pages, and that it is necessary to prevent deliberate misuse of our voting systems. Straw polls on Misplaced Pages are meant to measure community consensus, and should not necessarily be taken as literal one-member one-vote voting. However, please do make further contributions to Misplaced Pages, and express your opinion on policy matters.

--Christopherlin 18:04, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for the heads up. I see the potential for abuse that you describe in the polling mechanism, I'll refrain from participating in them utill I have some more 'editorial credibility' under my belt. --C33 18:17, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

No problem. It seems I accidentally wrote on your user page and not your user talk page, oops. Anyway, feel free to weigh in on discussion. Note the emphasis on "might not". Good luck! --Christopherlin 20:30, 6 April 2006 (UTC)


It adds everything to the article

Perhaps reading what I actually added to the text and not liveing in the past would help. Here is the text in its current form.

Stalin had ignored numerous intelligence warnings of a German attack.. He also sought to avoid any obvious defensive preparation which might provoke a German attack, in the hope of buying time to modernize and strengthen his military forces. A myth is that Stalin appeared unwilling to accept the fact and, according to some historians, was too stunned to react appropriately for a number of days. And this myth is dispelled by people who have looked into the Soviet Archives after the fall of the Soviet Union. Both Richard Overy and Simon Sebag Montefiore have showed that he held at least 8 major meetings the same day as the invasion.
