Petri Krohn's behaviour

[edit]

Thank you for your interest in topics regarding the Baltic republics and the Soviet occupation. This interests has undoubtedly familiarised you with tactics and behaviour of Petri Krohn.

I have prepared a thorough overview of these tactics, along with references to related Wikipedia policy, and posted it to his userpage, requesting that he stop such activities, especially representing private alternative histories on Wikipedia as thought they were fact.

Unfortunately, he proceeded to delete the request mere seven minutes later, along with an inflammatory edit summary. I do not believe this to have been a proper reaction.

Please, if that will not be too inconvenient, take a look at the situation, evaluate it, and consider expressing your evaluation in the appropriate manner.

Many thanks, Digwuren 16:36, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In response to calls to this effect on the talk page, I'm moving forward with the WP:RFC/U with only the last six weeks worth of edits fully classified. Please take a look at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Petri Krohn, which, after minor editing and addition of the most recent 'interesting' diffs, is supposed to become the main RFC around 21:00 UTC tonight. If there are reasons barring you from endorsing the current summary, I would like to learn about them as soon as possible so the main summary can be endorsed by as wide a coalition as possible.

Thanks in advance. Digwuren 15:36, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Estonia article

[edit]

The Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova and every other post Soviet republic pages are listed in the Russian speaking category http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Russian-speaking_countries_and_territories - what makes you believe that the Baltic states should not be included also?--Ilya1166 13:02, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

These are out of my scope of interest. Do you want me to dispute their presence in this category and category itself aswell? Suva 13:33, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Russian official language of the Baltics

[edit]

Suva, why did you close the mediation case, the case isn't solved, people still agree that the Baltic countries should be included in the list.--Ilya1166 02:55, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ok if you find that there is still need for mediation, then let's go through this. Suva 10:41, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Giftpilz and US First Amendment

[edit]

Thanks for that information about my edit. I'm always happy to be pointed in the right direction by a user who speaks a language I don't. Is the section in quotes ("the US laws on extremist websites are quite liberal") a direct quote from the police, or just your summary of what the article says they said? Depending on precisely what the wording is, there are a couple of different ways the article can be written to get the same fact across. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 12:18, 23 June 2007 (UTC) [reply]

Advice

[edit]

Let me give you the same advice I gave to another editor recently: [2]. Short version: content editing is the way; ANI bickering rarely helps and often hurts.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  11:23, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your advice, I'll try to follow it in the future. Suva 11:35, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Suva, The template: current has the following guidelines:

  • This template was created for those occasions that many editors (perhaps a hundred or more) edit an article on the same day, as an advisory to editors.
  • It is not intended to be used to mark an article that merely has recent news articles about the topic; if it were, hundreds of thousands of articles would have this template.
  • It is expected, when used properly, that this template and its closely related templates will appear on an article for perhaps a day or two, occasionally several days.
  • (...)

So I think my removal was justified as not much editing was going one and that the editing was mostly done by me. Greetings, Sijo Ripa 08:09, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
