• Medieval cuisine – Talk:Medieval cuisine; I'm not posting here because of any particular disputes (even if a few feathers have been ruffled over citation standards), but rather because I would really appreciate some suggestions on how to create sub-articles. There's already a regional cuisines of medieval Europe, but other than that, I'm somewhat at a loss on how to proceed. I have plenty more info that could be included, and sections that deserve to be expanded (like "Fruit and vegetables"), but I'm holding off on that because I don't want the article to grow much larger. Any input is highly appreciated. Peter 13:29, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

• Talk:Przyszowice massacre Reliability of sources is proving highly controversial. Are articles in foreign language newspapers written by authors whose scholarly standing is not established acceptable as main sources for the Misplaced Pages articles on historic subjects (not current events) if there are no English publications? 04:12, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
• Talk:Armenian Revolutionary Federation ] Content dispute over the role of ARF in Russia - participation of ARF in terrorist activity and extermination of civilians.

• Lao Wai (talk · contribs) persists in adding inaccurate information and original speculations into Collectivisation in the USSR and some other artciles and for two weeks now ignores my requasts to provide references to disputed statements. Please explain someone policies WP:ATTR to him. From some of his comments ion talk pages I conclude he sees me as a political enemy and doesn't listen. `'mikka 16:53, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
• Template_talk:Israel-InfoBox#Request_for_Comment:_Israel.27s_area_figure_in_the_infobox Israel's area figure in the infobox 23:29, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
• Talk:Koror-Babeldaob Bridge#Rfc - This bridge collapsed in 1996 and was subsequently rebuilt. There is an edit war as to whether the fact that it was rebuilt should be mentioned in the article. 03:33, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
• Talk:Rossville, Staten Island - As part of an ongoing edit war, Philip Gronowski has been arbitrarily reverting all additions of external links to the article as "removal of spam". These external links, which had been part of the article since it's creation, are not spam, and were unjustifiably removed. One external link links to an article about the 150th anniversary of the oldest Roman Catholic Church in Staten Island, which is located in the neighborhood. Another external link links to a website created by a former resident who describes what it was like to grow up in the area before it was built up. It seems to me that this Philip Gronowski character, who has recently been resoundingly rejected in his candidacy for RfA, is not making legitimate revisions based on the rules of Misplaced Pages, but on his own interpretation of what is "spam". I'd like to request that this article be submitted for third party arbitration, as I have exhausted all attempts at a compromise with Mr. Gronowski. I will abide by any decision made by an impartial administrator concerning this dispute. Thank you very much for your consideration. 172.135.184.176 20:50, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

• Talk:Québécois A particular user is claimed to be pushing POV by referring to Québécois as a single ethnic group for French-speaking people from Quebec, while acknowledging some other standard definitions (anyone from Quebec or Quebec City). Said user appears to be using IPs to avoid WP:3RR. There is now a proposal to change this into a redirect to Quebec.
