Merci, that was my reason why i reverted it but thanks for clearing it up. MKD is first now ahead of GRE because of the H2H, some users try to change that. Kante4 (talk) 17:29, 4 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Death of Johannes Heesters

Per: this. The majority of voters is in favour of posting this news fact with the changed blurb. But it still has not been posted. Could you perhaps do the honour? It'll go stale otherwise. Thanks already! Mythic Writerlord (talk) 20:26, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for December 19

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Old Bazaar, Skopje, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Han and Hamam (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

ITN

I reverted your edit at ITN since you blanked my comment--which I assume was not your intention. μηδείς (talk) 18:12, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for that. I entered in an edit conflict and paid no attention on the other edit at the same time. Regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 18:20, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your nomination would only require three more referenced sentences to get published. Until then, IP98 is right that it's not ready. μηδείς (talk) 16:29, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

March 2013

In respect of your edits on English People you might want to read up on WP:BRD ----Snowded ^TALK 12:52, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. It was pretty unusual to me that there is no information about the related groups as something that is often included in the infobox about ethnic groups. If you think that the definition of the English people is broad enough to prevent mentioning only those ethnic groups who speak the most closely related languages, then it's fine to me. Best regards.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 13:38, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This award is in recognition of your thoughtful comment at ITN which likely prevented a further waste of time and possibly hurt feelings. ThaddeusB (talk) 20:18, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Macedonian help needed

Hello Kiril, I'm contacting you because we need some Macedonian translators to help with the deployment of the new VisualEditor on mk.wikipedia. There are help pages, user guides, and description pages that need translating, as well as the interface itself. The translating work is going on over on MediaWiki: Translation Central. I also need help with a personal message for the Macedonian Wikipedians. If you are able to help in any way, either reply here, or head over to TranslationCentral. Thanks for your time, PEarley (WMF) (talk) 18:18, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Re: interwiki links

I don't really understand it myself, but I have noticed in the past that people tend to get annoyed when the number of wikis linked there gets to be rather large, even if they are relatively high-quality wikis (ie. not 90% bot-created articles). I think it would probably be best to propose it on Template talk:Wikipedia languages and see if anyone has any comments on it before I do that. Thingg ^⊕^⊗ 18:08, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeeah I see your point. Heh, I didn't really look at the numbers closely before. To be honest, personally I'm all for including lots of languages there even if it makes the template kind of long because I feel that having a direct link to them from the main page of the English Wikipedia would be a very good thing for those smaller wikis because of the massive amount of traffic the English wiki gets from people who aren't native speakers but may not be aware that there is a wiki in their native language. Evidently that is not the majority opinion though... Anyways, it's not a big deal to me either way. I don't have time to look at it now, but this weekend I'll try to look through the list of wikis and see where a good cut-off would be for new categories, like may 75000 for the lowest or something (or if you want to, you're more than welcome to; I've been pretty busy off-wiki lately). I'll let you know when I make the suggestion on the template talk page. Cheers. Thingg ^⊕^⊗ 23:16, 10 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Serbo-Croatian

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. --Taivo (talk) 23:52, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

In a 2007 arbitration case, administrators were given the power to impose discretionary sanctions on any user editing Balkans-related articles in a disruptive way. If you engage in further inappropriate behaviour in this area, you may be placed under sanctions including blocks, a revert limitation or an article/topic ban. Thank you.

Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Groundless revert of an edit to tweak the content in the article's infobox". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 16 November 2013.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

Fischer's US citizenship

That Fischer didn't lose his US citizenship is relatively easy to research and also documented in a WP article. So what gives with this? Ihardlythinkso (talk) 14:09, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My edit was reverted but then I realised the difference and decided to agree with the reasoning beyond it. I came up with the idea to insert that category mostly because it includes the article List of former United States citizens who relinquished their nationality, which itself includes Fischer as one who relinquished his US citizenship and thereby is indirectly classified under the same category.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 14:16, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Do you really think it was a matter of "reasoning" and not simple reading?! (The category name you applied was: "People who lost United States citizenship".) Ihardlythinkso (talk) 14:35, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I wasn't able to find a category saying something like "people who denounced their US citizenship" and then the results of my search linked me to that category. It's not radically different at all since it includes a list of people (where Fischer is mentioned) who relinquished their US citizenship. Hence, the term "lost" in this context probably means to lose the citizenship anyway, regardless if the person denounced it or the authorities decided to take it away.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 14:41, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The article is generally in a good shape with slight pushes over some things that can be easily changed to make it more neutral presenting the facts in a more modest way. I've already made some technical changes in the intro and will next digest the article's body. It looks promising to me for a future good article, especially when having a such long queue of sources and citations.--Kiril Simeonovski (talk) 14:21, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
