The Romanian forum

Hello Adriatikus, I see that you are a fresh Romanian user on Misplaced Pages, so I thought you'd be interested to learn that there exists an active portal for all Romanians here:

Spiritism

Hi, Adriatikus! Could you tell me if is there any article in Romanian Misplaced Pages about it? If not, could you help me translating it, actually a simplified version of the English article? Arges 02:58, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

As Spiritism article in English Misplaced Pages is too long, I think we'd better make a simplified version. I did myself the core of this article in English, so I could send you a resume of its main points. What do you think? Arges 15:37, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
I asked help for many users because I usually don't have answers from any... As you can see, only you and other guy responded my request. Anyway, my point is that Romanian is the only Latin language with no article about this subjetc. I did myself articles on Spiritism in Greek ans Russian, and improved significantly Portuguese, Italian, English and Spanish ones. I've surely had help from native speakers of these languages. And that's what I'm looking for! This is, at last for me, a very interesting subject, and I think it's a good idea to divulge a basic knowledge about it. It's a page of Science, Religion and Epistemology social transformations during European 19th century that many people, for different reasons, prefer to hide or forget. By the way, I did ask help for translating the article to Polish! And I've being thinking of other possibilities... Arges 22:05, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
Did you receive the text? Arges 11:07, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
Thanks! By the way, how do I say Spiritism in Romanian? Arges 14:35, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Adriatikus, I'm sorry that I didn't thank you before, for translating that text! Thank you very much, and I hope I can count on you for further projects! As well as you can surely count on me for whatever you need in Portuguese, Italian and a bit of Spanish! Arges 14:55, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Stavropoleos

Updated DYK query Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article Stavropoleos Church, which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

mo.wiki

Buna,

A inceput un vot pentru stergerea "Wikipediei Moldovenesti", o creatie a unui Evreu-American, cu origini suspecte in Basarabia si care nu vorbeste limba wikipediei la care pretinde a fi sysop. Il cheama Node ue si pentru a crea impresia ca lumea doreste aceasta wikipedie, a apelat la toti utilizatorii rusi care au venit sa voteze de partea lui desi nu cunosc bine subiectul si li s-a spus ca voteaza pentru supravietuirea alfabetului chirilic. Asa a ajuns ca votul sa fie 31 pentru stergerea Mo wiki, si 42 impotriva stergerii - deci in alte cuvinte pentru pastrarea wikipediei in limba "moldoveneasca". Vino si voteaza aici , ca sa sergem acesta creatura cu miros bolshevic, care insulta toti romanii de pe ambele maluri ale Prutului. Node ue le-a spus rusilor sa traduca mesajul lui in limba rusa si sa-l transmita mai departe. Trimite si tu mesajul acesta la toti utilizatorii romani-unionisti sau romani-moldoveni unionisti pe care-i cunosti pe en.wiki sau ro.wiki. Dapiks 23:29, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Wow, impresionanta lista asta. Ar trebui sa ne folosim mai des de ea. Si se vede ca deja ai reusit s-ai inchizi gura :). Sa vedem si ce mai zic observatorii neutrii. Dapiks 06:18, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
So why don't we do the same, right? Tsk. Perhaps I should place a translation of this over there? --Illythr 17:59, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
Actually, this is much worse than Node did - he appealed only to some generic Russians, whereas you are "politically selective". --Illythr 17:59, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
Ever heard of lobby ? Adriatikus 13:49, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
A pressure group, used to push the views of a political minority as those of the entire population? This is one of the key forms of political corruption that brought all the strife to my country back it the late 80s' and early '90s. Yes, I know it well. --Illythr 19:10, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Cool!

I didn´t think about it this way. :) I don know how to set the copyright flags correctly. I tried to do so, but it seems it does not work. ] 12:43, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Messing up the text

Huh, sorry man, how the heck did I do that?! I'll try to restore the text back as it was... --Illythr 17:20, 5 July 2006 (UTC) (pause, looks more closely) Oh, scared me there, you did. Whew! Well, if that's the way you want it, so be it. Didn't want to clutter up the page with those classic bullet-list-type debates... --Illythr 17:23, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

--

There was another nasty little trick you used - labeling:

  • The only official body stating the existence of this language is the Moldovan Parlament, ruled by the communists.

Perhaps I'm being paranoid, but it looks like if Communists would be replaced with Bogeymen, the general idea of the sentence will remain intact. Especially since you happened to forget some of the facts I provided about these "Communists". --Illythr 17:52, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Transliteration

Hello Adriatikus. As posted on meta.wiki, I suggest we push not for transliteration on ro.wikipedia, but for the transformation of mo.wikipedia into a transliteration tool. Thus, the Romanian purists have it their way (and they are not entirely wrong, given that Romanian is not written in Cyrillic). Also, Moldovanists have their language code (which is what they want). And the people that may really be interested in the cyrillic content - the Romanians/Moldovans that (are forced to) use it in Transnistria - get the content, so that the overlords of wikipedia cannot object to the proposal on this ground. At the same time, the page containing the transliteration tool will explicitly say the text is transliterated from Romanian, which is fair enough for the Romanian contributors. And, most important, trolls cannot edit. :) Dpotop 09:21, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Try this link http://mcworld.org/McChirilic/?pagina=Limba_moldoveneasc%C4%83 for the transliteration tool. Never checked it, though. landroni 07:45, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

revert dispute International reactions to the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict

Hi and welcome, There is an dispute in International reactions to the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict. The dispute is over inclusion of the AIPAC reaction to a US House of Representatives Resolution expressing support for Israel. Various accusations are being thrown around by Comrade438 eg. im being accused of trying to paint a "zionist conspiracy".

Comrade438 has made few silly edits, and comments, along with what might be a threat. It degenerated to Comrade438 blocking the page without consulting WP:RPP, then reverting last changes. I am trying to alert other users who have edited the article to this dispute as I believe the detail should be included. Is it possible you can look and see if you agree that AIPAC's reaction should be included in the article? I dont believe its a content issue and is possible trolling. I previously highlighted the problems on wikipedian noticeboard 82.29.227.171 21:27, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

  1. you should log in if you want to start a debate, and to receive reply
  2. I think intl reactions does mean reactions of the governments
  3. any reaction has its reasons, and it's up to analysts to argue on them and they largely remain a matter of speculation
  4. writing in such an article about reasons and unofficial parties reactions would overload it; this isn't an analysis article; if this is to be done for US, what about the other countries?
  5. should we also speculate about an "anti-terrorism like reaction of Israel" that forced US to accept its attack? this could be a good reason, don't you think?
In conclusion, I think the AIPAC paragraph is overload on the article, and also that this is a content issue. -- adriatikus | 22:17, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Transliterarea ro.wiki

Pe meta am lasat o legatura care te-ar ajuta in transliterarea ro.wiki in chirilica. Mi-i interesant daca ti-a fost utila si daca faci ceva in directia aceasta. Cred ca cel mai simplu ar fi de contactat pe Bogdan, autorul scriptului. --landroni 20:05, 7 August 2006 (UTC)


Note on adding full Eastern Orthodox Project to your watchlist

This is a note for members of the Eastern Orthodox Project: Since the project's main page has been converted to a portal-style box format, each of the boxes is actually its own page (you can see the page outside its box by clicking the 'Edit' link on any often the section boxes on the project page, which takes you to the edit page for its contents). Because of this, updates to individual box contents will not necessarily show up on editors' watchlists, if you've only got the main project page watched.

In order to keep up to date with all updates to the Project and its pages, I'd recommend adding each subpage to your watchlists. These are:

If you add all of the above pages to your watchlist, you should be informed whenever any part of the WikiProject Eastern Christianity is edited/updated. To discuss this, please see the relavent section of the Project's talk page. —Antonios Aigyptos 09:28, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Closure of the Moldovan Misplaced Pages

It seems the database has been locked there and the voting is considered closed by the supporting side. I guess you can close the lobby now. :-) --Illythr 23:51, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi, I answered to your question on my talk page. Cheers. --Michalis Famelis (talk) 00:39, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Mind-body dichotomy

Hi Adriatikus, the difference is that Mind-body dichotomy is the starting "point" of Dualism, and Dualism is broader. This is already stated in the article, I thought it was clear but maybe it can be further clarified. Cheers. --BMF81 13:26, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
