Medieval articles

[edit]

Hi, I notice you are creating a lot of medieval-related articles, so you might be interested in the Middle Ages WikiProject. You might also want to list any new articles you create at Wikipedia:WikiProject Middle Ages/New Articles. Adam Bishop 06:57, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I noticed you made yourself a male userbox. I've just made a "standard" one at {{User:MiraLuka/Userboxes/User male}} (which slots you into Category:Male Wikipedians). Feel free to use it and/or edit it! — Asbestos | Talk (RFC) 19:07, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Meissen/Meißen + other points

[edit]

Regarding the article Henry III, Markgraf of Meißen, and the others you are putting up regarding German ruling houses, I have some comments to make, which I hope you will take as helpful.

Firstly, the German letter ß does not exist in English and to most English speakers is not comprehensible. The English form of Meißen is Meissen. It avoids a lot of problems (and cleaning up) if when dealing with German language items you substitute for the ß a double ss - which is not wrong in German either. Secondly, if you are translating from the German Wikipedia please say so, as otherwise your articles will be tagged for lacking sources. Thirdly, please be consistent with titles such as Burggraf/Burgrave and Markgraf /Margrave. Doubtless a case can be made for using either form - but you should decide which you want and then stick to it - again, this will avoid unnecessary copyediting after the event. Best, Staffelde 14:57, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

As an addition to that, maybe you should just stop translating articles from German. I don't know what you are doing, but they sound like they have been put through Babelfish, and they end up making absolutely no sense. We'd almost be better off with no articles at all.

Take a look. It seems there that the raging russophobia of some is the only reason of the attempts to derail the candidacy of one of the most worthy people for the job.

Hi, K! Wanted to drop a quick note to express my gratitude for creation of this article. I see it's still in progress, but—nice job! Also, I wonder if you know the answer to the question I've been trying to have answered for quite a while now. According to numerous sources, Ingermanland Governorate was renamed St. Petersburg Governorate in 1710. I, however, am having a helluva time trying to find an exact date. I was able to find that Peter the I issued an edict to that effect (and that a copy of that edict was at the time of St. Petersburg's 300th Anniversary on display in the Central Archive of Moscow), but the actual date still eludes me (and I do not have access to Russian libraries as I live in the States). Just curious if you happen to know it or if you can look it up somewhere without going into too much trouble. If you could help, I'd greatly appreciate it, if not, it's alright, too.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) 13:29, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for adding this information. May I ask where you found it, please? Also, is the date of June 3 Julian or Gregorian? Thank you again.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) 14:08, 17 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Any particular reason why you restored the Russian interwiki link? The Russian entry deals with both the (national) Stalin Prize/Lenin Prize and the International Lenin Peace Prize, so it is not the same lemma. PDD 19:29, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rulers' names

[edit]

Dear Kmorozov, I have seen that you have edited Rulers of Hesse in the past, so I am asking you about your opinions:

  • Should rulers' names be given in their English or in their German form?
  • What should be done about articles that have been created with the non-preferred spelling/form in their title?

Thanks for your consideration. Str1977 19:16, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your voting on my RFA. It has finished with the result 88/14/9, and I am promoted. I am really overwhelmed with the amount of support I have got. With some of you we have edited many articles as a team, with some I had bitter arguments in the past, some of you I consider to be living legends of Wikipedia and some nicks I in my ignorance never heard before. I love you all and I am really grateful to you.

If you feel I can help you or Wikipedia as a human, as an editor or with my newly acquired cleaning tools, then just ask and I will be happy to assist. If you will feel that I do not live up to your expectation and renegade on my promises, please contact me. Maybe it was not a malice but just ignorance or a short temper. Thank you very much, once more! abakharev 07:34, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Request for edit summary

[edit]

Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 35% for major edits and 20% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 150 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 09:00, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your articles on the early "Earls of Warwick"

[edit]

Where did you get your information? I am researching the Greville line (lords of the several manors in Warwickshire in the 13-18th centurie) The title of the book I am using

"Edmondson, Joseph. An historical and genealogical account of the noble family of Greville, to the time of Francis, the present Earl Brooke, and Earl of Warwick including the history and succession of the several Earls of Warwick since the Norman Conquest; and some account of Warwick Castle.. London, 1766."

states that the early Earls claim the last name of de Newburgh. You have gone from Beaumont to Beauchamp. The latter is correct but not sure where you found the former.

Feedback,

Thanks, Lisa --

Survey on the use of Latinized/Greek names for Byzantine rulers Follow Up

[edit]

Greetings. As a recent contributor to the survey on the names of Byzantine rulers at Talk:Constantine XI, you may be interested in the following. A mediation sought by Panairjdde resulted in the recommendation that "that proposal two from this page be implemented in the short term, until a consensus can be reached about proposal three". Accordingly, before resuming the editorial process, I am seeking feedback on whether option 2 or 3 of the former survey is more acceptable. Please state (or re-state) your opinion in the follow up survey on Talk:Constantine XI. Thank you for your time, Imladjov 14:47, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ancestry of Nicholas II of Russia

[edit]

Please see the new comments on the talk page as to why the format is totally unworkable or change the name of the page to Genealogy of the Russian Imperial Family. The name is misleading as ancestry implies a readable format in which descent can easily be traced. The house divisions are in extensive need of review. I and others will help if needed. Sorry about the tone I took earlier. Charles 16:44, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Genealogy of the Russian Imperial Family? It is too complex and implies including of the ancestry of all other members, derived from other Emperors. If the name is misleading we need change it, but "Ancestry of Nicholas II of Russia" is equal to "List of ancestors of some particular person, namely Nicholas II of Russia" and reflect the content of this article. Also, see User:Kmorozov/Test. Kmorozov 06:22, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
What's the deal with Genealogy_of_the_British_Royal_Family then? The article "on Nicholas II" involves an Emperor who inherited father to son over many generations, so the ancesrty covers not only the ancestors of Nicholas II, but the previous Emperors of Russia.

War and Peace question

[edit]

Hello Kmorozov. I first want to say that I like the change that you made to the Russian film version of War and Peace's wikipage. In reading it a question came to mind. The first paragraph states that it took seven years to produce - then your additions show that part 4 was released in 1966 - which might mean that production started in 1959. Now, having lived through the "Lord of the Rings" experience I can understand that such an epic project like this film might have needed several years of preproduction before principal filming got underway. What I am wondering is whether you have any info on when planning started, when filming actually started and when it might have finished? If you do have any of this info do you think that it is worth adding to the article? From the look of things you are a busy Wikipedian so please don't feel the need to rush a reply to my query but if, and when, you have the time anything you can add to my knowledge of this unique film will be much appreciated.User:MarnetteD | Talk 15:22, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
