I just wanted to point your attention to the recent Arbitration case (]) that opened on the ] and related articles. You are not part of the arbitration, but since you have been editing the article's talk page recently and have been editing related articles (e.g. ]), you might want to read up on the Arbitration case (and, if you feel like that, give us your opinion). That way you also get an idea of what the problems have been in the past and you can consider those issues in your future edits and comments.

== Kosovo again... == | |||
Hi Davu... I'm afraid you're way off the mark in your comment on my talk page that "The idea that independence for Kosovo will set some sort of a precedent for other disputed territories is a regurgitation of Serbian Government propaganda, pure and simple." Not at all; it's a Russian issue, not a Serbian one. The Russians have been hinting for months that they don't see any difference in principle between Kosovo and disputed territories in the former Soviet Union. Putin's gone on the record just today to say exactly this, and has said that Russia may veto an agreement on Kosovo if it doesn't like what it sees. (See ). Don't read this as a definite statement of intent, by the way. It's likely that Putin is seeking to use Kosovo as leverage to persuade the West to commit to holding some kind of final status talks for South Ossetia and Abkhazia. -- ] 17:40, 13 September 2006 (UTC) |

welcome
Dear Davu,
Welcome to Misplaced Pages! As a new editor you are more than welcome to make edits to all pages, although some articles might be locked for a few days after registration (like Kosovo maybe, I am not sure). Don't be afraid to edit articles, but in case of controversial subjects it is always wise to check the talk page first and discuss any major or prominent edits. Given your interest in Kosovo subject, you will probably encounter a lot of heated debates. Happy editing! --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 11:43, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
Hey Davu
If you wish to make a statement with your views on the matter (for the arbitration purposes) please do so on the here ]. Your comments will be greatly appreciated.
You can also make a personal statement along with any evidence you want to put forward. Don't worry too much about the formatting as I will sort that out. I have been quite busy recently but I will present my case very soon. Hopefully other Editors who think the same as us will join us soon, as we don't want this admin-backed propaganda to misrepresent the reality.

Arbitration on Kosovo
Dear Davu,
I just wanted to point your attention to the recent Arbitration case (Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Kosovo) that opened on the Kosovo and related articles. You are not part of the arbitration, but since you have been editing the article's talk page recently and have been editing related articles (e.g. Kosovo War), you might want to read up on the Arbitration case (and, if you feel like that, give us your opinion). That way you also get an idea of what the problems have been in the past and you can consider those issues in your future edits and comments. Best regards, --Cpt.

Kosovo again...
