Polish oppression

[edit]

The polish Pans who civilized Ukraine and Belarus have more right to those articles than anybody else. Pan Space Cadet 18:18, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)

It depends on how many Eastern Slavic serfs you have and oppress. IMHO Xenia got it right that I should leave the articles on Eastern Europe alone since I personally have only 35 serfs and oppress only half of them (not even every day, I admit...). Perhaps we could establish some wikipedia guideline or rule that would permit to edit an article related to Eastern Europe only if the wikipedian has a certain amount of serfs. Or even better, we could make it a point system: 1 point per every male serf abused, 2 points per every female serf abused, 1 point per every 10 serfs not abused (gender irrelevant here), plus 5 points per every latifundium in Ukraine, Belarus or Russia, 5 additional points for every Orthodox priest expelled from his or hers lands and so on. Whoever gets 100 points - is free to edit. Only true magnates should be allowed, the average Polish pans are not honourable enough.
A similar rule of thumb could be established for Eastern Slavs. They would be allowed to edit the articles on Central Europe. Points for manors looted, Byzantine ships sunk, lakh, zhyd or klekha killed (impaled, of course) or for every female taken captive. To make it easier for younger revolutionaries, we could establish a wiki commission that would check if the person is able to fly the Sacred Red Banner for, let's say, 1 hour. If so - 60 points granted. What do you say? Halibutt 20:37, Dec 23, 2004 (UTC)
You've got it all wrong boys. I'm certain dear Xenia was referring to me. Due to a historic quirk of surname Romanization, she thought that this humble хохол had been left in charge of the livestock and serfs. Let me tell you, that would have been a mistake. Michael Z.
Nyah, that would be totally absurd. Every child knows that we, the Polish pans, are very keen on oppression of Eastern Slavs and that in order to bleed a serf dry, we always place some foreigner, like a Jew or Armenian, in charge. Your name - whatever the romanisation system is used - is still too Slavic. After all nothing beats the fun of seing the poor serfs get angry at a Jew, who in turn gets angry at them. Divide et impera, there's no rule as devilish as that.
But seriously now, I was hoping that the demons of "White Polish pans" are long-dead. Apparently I was wrong... Halibutt 23:56, Dec 23, 2004 (UTC)

Hello, TintoRetto! I thought you might be interested in the Russian wikipedians' notice board. Come check it out! We could use more help! KNewman 19:50, Dec 28, 2004 (UTC)

TintoRetto, I once lost my temper over comments by Mikkalai, but he deserves to be respected for the huge body of valuable contributions he's made to Wikipedia. You on the other hand, are making yourself known for denigrating people and nations.

In discussions, just stick to facts that are supported in literature. Don't write about the participants; this is considered a personal attack. Don't address people by their ethnicity; this is considered prejudiced or racist. Don't indulge in name-calling. This kind of rhetoric waters down your argument, and discredits you and your side of the debate.

The language and your recent move

[edit]

Dear TintoRetto, while I do not oppose the transfer of Old Ruthenian language to Old East Slavic language, and especially so since both terms seem to be correct, acceptable and compromise, it would definitely not hurt if you proposed such a move on the respective talk page.

Don't get me wrong, but moving the article the day after the proposal of transfer was not accepted by a wiki voting gives a bad impression. Halibutt 16:02, Jan 2, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for all your help over at the article. The picture really spruces the article up. AmishCellPhone 23:30, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

They are works of Russian painters, exponated in Russian galleries and published in Russian and Soviet catalogs, most of them are from Russian museums. Soviet Union (and Russia) jointed copyright convention quite late, thus all the works exponated before 1973 are Public Domain ouside fSU. Thus, the label: {{sovietpd}}. abakharev 09:33, 24 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Oreshek.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Oreshek.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. - CrazyRussian talk/email 04:00, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Detinets.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Detinets.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Oden 14:24, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Korela.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 23:51, 9 July 2007 (UTC).
