Use of primary source in DM article

G'day Gorran, as you have recently added a primary source to the Mihailović article, I just wanted to draw your attention to the WP policy on WP:PRIMARY sources. Please have a read, I'm happy to answer any questions you have. I'm sure we can source something along the lines you are getting at from reliable, published secondary sources.

Yugoslavia disambiguation

G'day Gorran, I've dabbed the latter armies and 3rd Army Group, but as the armies of the 1st and 2nd Army Groups are currently at GAN, I'll move them after they've been through the process. I've pre-emptively dabbed the two Aviation Divisions per our discussion, and I'll start working through the rest. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 05:50, 21 June 2014 (UTC)

Help with translation

G'day Gorran, could you help with a translation of the following passage from Pajović? Kapetan Pavle Durišić, koji je sudjelovao u pregovorima za predaju talijanske glavnine, usprotivio se da se Talijanima oduzima osobno naoružanje, a građanski političari iz Berana protivili su se da se zarobljeni Talijani sprovode u Kolašin, gdje se nalazio štab ustaničke Privremene vrhovne komande i gdje su se trebali koncentrirati svi talijanski zarobljenici s tog područja. I'm thinking it means Durišić objected to the weapons captured from the Italian garrison of Berane being taken away from the town (presumably to Kolašin), and that the local politicians objected to the Italian prisoners themselves being transferred to Kolašin like all the other captured Italians? Your help would be appreciated. Thanks, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 06:59, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

It says he opposed personal weapons to be taken away from Italian POWS, and that the local politicians objected to the Italian prisoners themselves being transferred to Kolašin, as they should, where the Temporarily Command was located.--Gorran (talk) 08:04, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

Thanks mate. That was the bit that confused me the most. Peacemaker67 (send... over) 08:12, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

Anytime. --Gorran (talk) 08:33, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

Another one?

G'day Gorran, Zbog toga je kontaktirao s Talijanima uz pomoć određenih ličnosti, najviše svoga brata Vase, koji je bio oficir za vezu pri štabu divizije Venezia, sjedište koje se nalazilo u Beranama (Ivangrad). Prema četničkim podacima, Pavle Durišić se osobno sastao s Talijanima dva puta između siječnja i ožujka 1942. godine. Na prvom sastanku, u siječnju 1942, sastao se s predstavnicima komande divizije Venezia, kada su utvrđeni modaliteti suradnje u borbi protiv partizana. Tom je prilikom Durišiću odobrena sloboda akcije protiv partizana u operativnoj zoni divizije Venezia. Došlo je i do sporazuma s predstavnicima talijanske divizije, ali s četničke strane nije ga potpisao Pavle, nego njegov vrat — Vaso Durišić. appears to me to state that Durišić had a brother Vaso (Vasili?) who was Pavle's liaison officer at the headquarters of the Italian Venezia Division, and who signed an agreement with the Italians on his behalf. Sound right? Cheers, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 13:36, 28 June 2014 (UTC)

Exactly. Vaso (Vasilije) Đurišić, Pavle's brother, signed the agreement with Italians on behalf of Pavle Đurišić, as his envoy, in January 1942.--Gorran (talk) 13:50, 28 June 2014 (UTC)

Cheers. Maybe my sh isn't as bad as I think... Sadly not. Thanks again, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 14:05, 28 June 2014 (UTC)

Pajovic

G'day Gorran, we must be looking at a very different version of Pajovic's 1987 work. Are you referring to a paper cooy or the one available online at znaci? Cheers, Peacemaker67 (send... over) 23:27, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

No, it was my mistake, sorry - I've been looking in the other book.--Gorran (talk) 23:35, 29 June 2014 (UTC)
