Proposed deletion of Ivan Radočaj

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Ivan Radočaj, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Notability. No significant coverage of the subject outside his murder.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. --aktsu  08:51, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello Kubura! Thanks for the friendly advice, I might just do that.123.2.59.195 (talk) 00:22, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Have Registed

Hi Kubura just a quick note. Just read the article on Pagania (again) it really needs a serious rewrite.Sir Floyd (talk) 04:34, 4 April 2009 (UTC) (formerly 123.2.59.195)

CSSD

Hi, please discuss it ]. And do watch for your tone, as it's very disdainful at first sight, emanating negative energy. Also, try citing from those books relevant parts, and not your amateurish conclusions. For example, you saying There you'll see that Croatian and Serbian had separate lines of development - I'd really like to know in what scenario have Serbian and Croatian managed to have "separate lines of development", but managed to share 99% of grammar (phonology exactly the same, trivial differences in morphology & syntax). --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 15:40, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Dear Kubura

Here to say goodbye. Misplaced Pages seems to have writers of extreme views (Stalin Style) and who are very abusive. Wiki seem to tolerate them. So I’m leaving. Thanks for the surport you gave me. Also could you please thank the writers who supported me with the Misplaced Pages: Reliable sources/Noticeboard.

Regards Sir Floyd (talk) 11:25, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Kubura, this is User:Luigi 28, thought you ought to know :). He's "leaving" because his cover's been blown and I told him we'd report him... seems he's trying to draw out some pathetic "victory" by leaving before we get him banned. --DIREKTOR 23:43, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

WP:ANI notification

You're mentioned at Misplaced Pages:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Communist_Croat_gang. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 17:14, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

Kubura a communist?? LoL!! xD --DIREKTOR 20:29, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

WP:HARASS

I recommend you calm down. Kubura, I'm starting to think you are trying to harass me. Are you actually simultaneously accusing me of "anti-Croatian edits" while citing an edit restriction I got while I did my best to stop the Italian irredentists from using Italian names for every single Croatian city up to 1918? How weird is that? I'm actually proud of my ARBCOM edit restriction. I took the bullet so that Wiki can see how fanatical those Italian guys like old GG are. He got blocked. All of them got blocked. It can easily be seen from that which side was riddled with nationalist POV, and who was just trying to repair the damage. I just did a massive pile of work de-Hungarianizing the articles on Croatian counties

Now you had best stop following me around in your impotent "rage" over the deletion of a double article. I know hrWiki is crappy and disorganized, but on enWiki we deal in actual existing states, not Croatian fantasies like the famous "Hrvatsko-Ugarska". I have set-out to reform Croatian history articles. This page has been deleted so that we can make a fresh start and create a line of state succession from the Kingdom of the Croats to the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia.

Kubura, I'm here to HELP. Try to understand that. I am NOT, repeat NOT on an "anti-Croatian" agenda. I am here on Croatian history articles to make them less "fantastic" and more factual and up to international standards of objectivity. The Triune Kingdom EXISTED. Nobody "deleted" it! But you CAN NOT have the Kingdom of Croatia (1527-1868), the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia (1868-1918) article and the Triune Kingdom article at the same time. That kind of crap destroys the entire group of Croatian history articles! Ma ja nemogu virovat da me ti jos ne razumis... --DIREKTOR 08:56, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

History of Dalmatia (A Wiki Book)

Hi Kubura just here to inform you (just in case you didn’t know), that there is a book out called History of Dalmatia . It seems to be mostly made from older Wiki articles, yes including Medieval Dalmatian Principalities & others (maps & all). Considering with what speed that some articles can change on Wiki, it’s a bit of a worry. Lets say there are some historical mistakes. I quote from the Pagania Chapter “ The Neretvians were also know as Pagans, because by the time of their Christianization, all Serbs already accepted Christianity”. Regards Sir Floyd (talk) 02:20, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

It's got something to do with free licenses-GFDL & CC (& Wikimedia Foundation team). One of the aspects of free licenses is "Anyone is free to re-use the content either in non-commercial or in commercial settings, so long as they properly attribute the content to its source/authors". I'm carefully considering whether one should put too much time and effort into the content of Wiki-Articles. If Wiki-Articles can be released and then somebody gets profits from it, I then don't see the piont of it all. The words rip off comes to my mind. That photo, what can be said? Considering that Dalmatia is one of the best looking places on the planet, the publishers could have done better.

PS. Thanks for answering. Sir Floyd (talk) 01:25, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

problemi na hr wiki

You blocked me on the HR wiki. The word "zajebavas" is not a swear word. I was very civil, and undoing edits that were ruining the article. Your information there is totally un-sourced. (LAz17 (talk) 17:18, 28 October 2009 (UTC)). (hockey league article) (LAz17 (talk) 17:18, 28 October 2009 (UTC)).

1) I fixed the hockey stuff. Your informations were partially right, partially wrong. 2) Before you comment on something regarding ceha and me, you should first look into what happened. The guy has made "FRAUD" ethnic maps for Bosnia. This is a big problem, and it is not just me who says that it is a problem. 3) When does the ban on hr wiki expire? (LAz17 (talk) 20:42, 5 November 2009 (UTC)). All, zajebavas is in no way an insult or a bad word. Many worse things are said all the time on the english wiki. Banning someone for saying "stop joking with me" is wrong. That is what you were doing, you were joking with me, with unsourced claims. (LAz17 (talk) 20:43, 5 November 2009 (UTC)).

I responded on the article talk page. Also, how long is that block supposed to last? (LAz17 (talk) 06:25, 7 November 2009 (UTC)).

User:Aradic-es

User:Aradic-es posted unblock requests and was denied by 1, 2, 3 other admins. He has since asked the Arbitration Committee, which is the appropriate response. I have been informed of his communication as well and added my own. As to why he was blocked, this attitude is entirely inappropriate. Period. I do not care about truth or falsity, that kind of attitude is inappropriate and not desired here. Also, if you have an issue with User:PRODUCER's choice of userboxes, request that Template:User Serbo-Croatian be listed at Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion if you feel it does not qualify under policy. Otherwise, drop it. He isn't the only one with that userbox so if you do not want to assume good faith as to him either and conduct yourself similarly, I have no issue handing out discretionary sanctions in a similar manner. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 04:35, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Point them out and they can be warned and blocked as well. If you can't tell from this, the editors in this space have acted poorly enough to be on a short lease. I do not care about how Aradic acts on other wikis. He got himself blocked more than enough to make it clear that whatever he was doing here, it wasn't desired. Last, why are you telling me about users who haven't edited here in years? User:24.86.127.107 is from 2007 and User:24.86.110.10 is from 2008. We don't block IP addresses for long periods of time as it's likely to lead to innocent victims when the address changes, so a few weeks is actual extraordinary. As to your reports to User:Joy, that was years ago as well. I do not care about them and I do not care about Aradic. There are enough editors here who can act mature enough to be productive. He chose not to and he was blocked for that. 3 other admins declined and the Arbitration Committee is considering it as well. I should suggest you talk to them as I have no further interest in discussing this. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 07:55, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Aradic was not blocked exclusively for his insults. This is what I reported him for . Please carefully read the stuff about Srebrenica/Mladic and consider if it is appropriate to add this to Bosniaks. Also the recent block was for edit warring after this. Aradic had escalating blocks for edit warring. first 24 hours, then 48 hours, then 2 weeks. He still continued to insult and edit war and so now has an indef. Where next? He takes no advice, the only action is a ban. I am sorry it came to that because I know Aradic isn't always wrong but the level of unpleasantness and warring had become too much.

Talk:Croatia in personal union with Hungary

The article has been redirected. The talk page should follow as well. Otherwise, we'll have confusion over where any discussion is taking place. You can link to prior versions of the talk page if you want or better yet, copy the information to Talk:Croatia in personal union with Hungary/Archive 1 and link to that. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 02:20, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

I think we can't reach an agreement

Hi Kubura! Thanks for support and for an opinion about the personal union issue, but I think others don't won't to solve the problem, only flame it. As much I bend and let it thear way, they only push harder and more aggressive. Regards, Kebeta (talk) 14:50, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

Reply

This is no doubt aradic and this is the only reason you care. I've opened plenty of SPI's on him to know its him and it's the same article and the same editing. All he did was copy and paste a bunch of text from hr wiki, remove the cyrillic version, and add his broken english. If you even bothered to check up on your friend you would have seen that it was aradic the last 50 times. This isn't the first time that you've defended aradic and your only helping him evade his block. ◅ P R O D U C E R _(TALK) 07:27, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

A little help?

Hello. I was hoping you could help me with a little issue on the Croatia national basketball team's page... There have been some edits by this dude recently, and as you can clearly see on the history page, he has no plans to suspend them any time soon... So I decided to contact you since I have absolutely no experience in this kinda stuff (I know it's kinda silly but i really don't...)... Would you please be kind enough to take a look? Thanks in advance. Malez

Liburnia

Tnx Kubura. I've already used it for Medieval Liburnia section. But there is another problem here. Prehistory of the Western Balkans in general is extremely poorly covered in the English literature. Just take a look at the articles here in en.wiki, or google it to notice the same elsewhere. So, any quality change / step forward I make on that topic here is like fighting the windmills. There are some ejucated people here who, unconcious of their ignorance which is not their fault, are "believing in" or "thinking" something, making a barrier to any developement. Too bad so many cro users left en.wiki in last few yrs for similar reasons. I think I'm becoming the next one, I have no nerves for that, nor free time. Zenanarh (talk) 10:07, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Re:Pagania

Hi Kubura! There are some changes happening on the Pagania article. You might like to contribute as you were involved in the original consensus-concerning Slavs vs. Serbs/Link. Regards Sir Floyd (talk) 10:06, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

South Slavic languages

I don't know if you're reading the talk page. That last edit was close to vandalism. See WP:point. You can be WP:blocked for that kind of thing. Again, please bring your specific concerns to the talk page, rather than reverting other editors. kwami (talk) 02:20, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
