Regards to Polish articles
[edit]Hi,
Just noticed your form of writing is not neutral and somewhat provocative. You emphasize on absolutely everything to do with the border changes of Poland, Germany and the Soviet Union, with a staunch pro-German sentiment. The facts should be stated which they are; Germany lost, Eastern Borderlands were annexed by the Soviets and in return Eastern German parts were annexed by Poland with all the pre-war German population either fleeing or being expelled per demands made in the Potsdam Agreement. Those lands were settled by Poles either expelled from Borderlands or other parts of Poland. That's all that should be written. So I do not know why you'd even try to put the word "re-attached" which suggests the Eastern Borderlands were once legally part of Soviet Union. Emphasizing and exaggerating German culture of cities (Elbląg, Gdańsk etc) is pointless as German culture built Poland in the first place over the centuries. Elbląg was part of Poland-Lithuania until the partitions, and I do not see anything German in it. Its architecture reflected the Hanseatic style, found in the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Estonia, Sweden etc. All Baltic States have this style so I do not see how the city is evidently German and you adding "The city's culture, which had been German for centuries, was transformed to Polish by the expulsion of its German citizens" is wrong. I think you should be banned for this sentence alone as it shows how little you know (or understand) of history. Germans were present in the whole of Poland as were other nationalities who contributed to Poland's cultural wealth, including my ancestors. They were cities, not German, not Dutch, not Swedish, not Polish, just cities that were located in Poland at the time and are now as a result of border changes. Cities have no nationalities, they were built by multicultural society that once inhabited the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Different matters concern Szczecin for example which as a result of history and conflict is now in Poland. Oliszydlowski, 19:42, 27 March 2019 (UTC)
- yes I have just noticed this as well. And Oliszydlowski, your message is dated 27 March, and I noticed these edits today, and they are all more recent, so it looks like he ignored your message. I am going through those edits and seeing which ones are rooted in fact and which ones are just non-neutral. Mike Winowicz (talk) 21:44, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Disambigation pages
[edit]Please note that disambiguation pages are meant to help readers find specific information in existing articles quickly and easily. For that reason, they should not include information that is not in the linked article. DAB pages are not foreign language dictionaries and don't list definitions or translations of non-English words unless that word is notable enough to be covered in an article. The word Ross is not mentioned in either of the articles that you linked to, so it doesn't belong on the DAB page. Thanks, Leschnei (talk) 12:48, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
ANI notification
[edit](Sorry I didn't notice you hadn't received this notification before I posted the one below.) Somebody (User:Oliszydlowski) opened a thread involving some complaints about you at the administrators' noticeboard. Unfortunately they forgot to notify you of this, which they should have done. The thread is at WP:ANI#Nationalism, nationalistic sentiment, lack of neutrality, lack of response. Fut.Perf. ☼ 17:37, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
Notice
[edit]This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in Eastern Europe or the Balkans. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

For explanation: the above, including the disclaimer about not implying any issues with your editing, is a standard boilerplate text that I'm required to use. This does not, conversely, mean that there isn't anything wrong with your contributions. As you may have noticed, I defended some of them in the current thread at WP:ANI. However, I find edits like this [1] troublesome, and I do believe that if you continue to concentrate exclusively on edits of this type and in this topic area, you will find yourself sanctioned soon. (Somebody once wrote "The Cynic's Guide to Wikipedia". It's only half serious, but you might do well to study #3 in that list and think about whether it might be perceived as applying to you.)

- They also last used a talk page in 2018. It'd be good if someone more familiar with the topic area would look at their contribs and see which are actually justified, although I'm afraid that's a hell of a job. Pinkbeast (talk) 19:47, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
Your recent edits
[edit]Hi Stan Tincon. This is a friendly reminder of our Wikipedia policies of referencing any additions to the articles. That's particularly important if your additions may be perceived as controversial by other users. Please read Wikipedia:Citing sources and Wikipedia:Reliable sources. I encourage you to take your time to find appropriate reliable sources, and add them to your edits on articles on Polish history. Including unsourced statements in Wikipedia articles only leads other users to revert your edits and is counterproductive. Thank you. - Darwinek (talk) 23:03, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
Spamming text "Germans were expelled by Czechoslovak authorities for Czech citizens to take their property" in multiple articles
[edit]The line, while not the only unsourced line in the paragraph you copied and pasted to a bunch of article, is definitely problematic. #1 It is unsourced. #2 It is most definitely not neutral. You added it, over and over again, to at least these articles: Krasne Pole, Głubczyce County Pielgrzymów, Opole Voivodeship Chomiąża, Opole Voivodeship Gościce Sławniowice
And those are just the five I found, there may be more, of course. Can you explain this? Mike Winowicz (talk) 07:40, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
- I found another: on the Ushakovo, Novomoskovsky Rural Okrug, Guryevsky District, Kaliningrad Oblast page you wrote "new, mainly Russian, settlers took their place and property", without a source. Mike Winowicz (talk) 21:34, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
