Category 'Polish nationalism'

I'm not sure that this is an appropriate category for some of the Pogrom articles. Some of these pogroms were motivated by simple desire for robbery and theft rather than by any kind of nationalism. Even in the pogroms, like Jedwabne, where ethnic prejudice played an independent role (in addition to desire for property), I'm not sure that this automatically means that Polish nationalism was too blame. The situation is different wrt some of the stuff that happened between Ukrainians and Poles in the Kresy, so there the category may be more appropriate, though even so it should be decided on a case by case basis.radek (talk) 15:28, 10 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Birczanin, since you have been adding every single massacre perpetrated by the Poles to the category Polish nationalism, one might expect you to add every single massacre perpetrated by the Ukrainians to the category Ukrainian nationalism. Be consistent with your edits. Or perhaps I am demanding too much? Tymek (talk) 19:12, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit at Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists

Hello Birczanin. An editor complained to me about your recent change to this article. This is a controversial article, and its companion article, Ukrainian Insurgent Army, is under a 1RR. Please join the article's talk page to explain your thinking. And note that it is best not to mark your change as a minor edit. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 01:01, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You're being discussed on my talk page. You may respond there if you wish. I take note that you have 19 blocks on the Polish Wikipedia, and you should make an effort to be on your best behavior here on the English wiki. If you continue to make mysterious reverts (like the one at OUN) with no discussion, you may win unfavorable attention from administrators, and you could eventually be blocked for WP:Tendentious editing.

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 05:14, 20 June 2010 (UTC)^{[citation needed]}[reply]

Category space used as article space

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Mining_in_Indonesia&oldid=328571110 please note that this edit has been reverted as Category space is not article space - cheers Satu Suro 03:31, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
