Hi Iryna,
If you don't mind my asking, there is a dispute going on at the Environmental racism in Europe article. A user has rather aggressively claimed that the entire article is biased, and has proceeded to delete large sections of it (61,000 bytes) on the claim that the material is a coatrack. They have answered my attempts to address legitimate neutrality questions (which I am always open to discussing on less hostile terms) with numerous demands to answer questions that, for the most part, would normally be answered in Wikipedia guidelines (which I have shared).
Not quite sure how to move forward (as it could be considered a legitimate content dispute), I decided to submit a request for a Third Opinion. But I'm not sure if that's the correct approach for this type of dispute. Seeing as you've helped review this article previously, I felt it appropriate to ask if you have any thoughts.
Lastly, the main neutrality issue concerns the identification of instances where race and environmental issues relate, but aren't explicitly described in sources as "environmental racism." The user claims that sources for each respective case must directly use the term "environmental racism" in order to be included in the article. The user also claims that the article has few or no valid sources. I mentioned a possible name change of the article to "Environmental issues and race in Europe" as a potential means to address the neutrality concern, which would avoid use of the term "environmental racism"; this is something I had been thinking about prior to the dispute, and am generally happy to consider if there was a broader community consensus. I also suggested that I was open to using any potential academic / reliable sources that might argue against the notion of environmental racism, as a means to further balance the article. These responses were received with additional threats to continue content removal and a demand that I wasn't answering the user's questions.
Thanks! [PS--I also realized that in our previous conversations, I had totally overlooked your note at the top of your talk page explaining which user talk pages to post on. I will follow the preferred convention from now on :)

Iryna,
Do you know of a page, or other resource, for solving technical editing issues? I live in a town split between 2 counties. Somebody added some county info for one of the towns in the infobox, but it won't let me add the second county. Who/where would I ask about this? Paulmlieberman ( talk) 19:32, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
Hi, Iryna. I understand your removal of my addition to the article on Peter Kenez if the reference I added doesn't in fact verify his place of birth. I honestly thought it did (perhaps at a deeper level within that reference), but I must have been mistaken. Professor Kenez was, however, certainly born in Hungary and lived there until 1956 (he still has his Hungarian accent!), and he writes about his early life and education in Budapest in his book "Varieties of fear: growing up Jewish under Nazism and Communism". I just need to find better references. Mea culpa! -- Picapica ( talk) 20:01, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
You undid my carefully-considered and even though I say it myself excellent edits over several hours on the Flemish People page. I'm wondering why you did that?

"Source: I actually live in Flanders"is not a reliable source). Wikipedia articles are based on reliable sources, not what any user believes to be the 'truth'. Aside from your (rather arrogant) missive as to how living in a country making you a specialist, leaving edit summaries like this and this are personal attacks which have no place in Wikipedia. Comment on content, not the contributor, and don't be derisive of an experienced editor's abilities based on some sort of assumption that health issues mean that I'm stupid. You didn't even bother to check my user page which makes it clear that I live in Australia, not Ukraine. That reflects badly on you as it demonstrates that you haven't bothered to understand the content of my user page. Please desist from being high-handed in your approach to editors as you reverted another editor over the same content declaring that you know the subject matter because you live in Flanders. I live in Australia, and am of Ukrainian descent: neither of which make me an expert on those countries. Take your proposed content changes - along with reliable, verifiable sources to back up your contentions - to the article's talk page as you have been asked to do.

Culturally, both islam and the semi-asian orthodox countries were traditionally west-hater civilizations.
THE WESTERN (Catholic-protestant) WORLD is depicted in dark blue on the map of prof. S. Huntington: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2f/Clash_of_Civilizations_map.png
What is Western Civilization? The earliest mention of Western civilization “Occidental civilis”
It is not a secret in history, that countries civilizations are/were not in the same level of development.
It is well-known that Western and Central Europe, ( the so-called Western civilization) was always more developed than Orthodox Slavic or Eastern European civilization.
The differences in culture (material and verbal), legal constitutional, societal, political, economical, infrastructural, technological and scientific development, between Orthodox countries and Western Christian (Catholic-Protestant) countries were similar great, as the differences between Northern America (USA Canada) and Southern- (Latino) America.
MEMENTO:
Western things which were not existed in orthodox world:
1. POLITICAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL development: Medieval appearance of parliaments (The parliament is a legislative body(!), DO NOT CONFUSE with the “councils of monarchs” which existed since the very beginnings of human history), the estates of the realm, the clergy, the nobility, and the commoners,
2. Local SELF GOVERNMENT status of big royal/imperial cities, which are the direct ancestors (the continuity) of modern local self governmental systems. Do not confuse the local self governments with the so-called city states. Sovereign city states were the earliest form of states in Human history ( For example: Sumerian city states), and that legal concept has nothing common with the self-governments/local governments of cities within a country or within an Empire.
3. ECONOMY: The medieval appearance of banking systems and social effects and status of urban bourgeoisie, the absolute dominance of money-economy (when the vast majority of trade based on money and the taxes customs duties were collected in money) from the 12th -13th century, instead of the former primitive bartel-based commerce (barter dominated the economies orthodox world until the 17-18th centuries.)
4. HIGHER EDUCATION: The medieval appearance of universities and the medieval appearance of SECULAR intellectuals,
5. CULTURE: Knights, the knight-culture, chivalric code, (and the technological effects of crusades from the Holy Land,) Music and literature: courtly love, troubadours, Gregorian chant, Ars nova, Organum, Motet, Madrigal, Canon and Ballata, Liturgical drama, Novellas, medieval western THEATER: Mystery or cycle plays, morality and passion plays, which developed into the renaissance theater, the direct ancestor of modern theaters. Philosophy: Scholasticism and humanist philosophy
6. The medieval usage of Latin alphabet and medieval spread of movable type printing,
7. TECHNOLOGY: The guild system is an association of artisans or merchants, which organized the training education, and directed master's exam system for artisians. Due to the compulsory foreign studies of the artisian master's candidates, the guilds played key role in the fast spread of technologies and industrial knowledge in the medieval Western World.
8. The defence systems & fortifications: The spread of stone/brick castle defense -systems, the town-walls of western cities from the 11th century. (In the orthodox world, only the capital cities had such a walls . The countries of the Balkan region and the territory of Russian states fell under Ottoman/Mongolian rule very rapidly - with a single decesive open-field battle - due to the lack of the networks of stone/brick castles and fortresses in these countries. The only exception was the greek inhabited Byzantine territories which were well fortified.)
9. FINEARTS and ARCHITECTURE: western architecture, sculpture paintings and fine-arts: the Romanesque style, the Gothic style and the Renaissance style. The orthodox church buildings and „palaces(?)” were very little, they had primitive structure and poor decorations, their style were influenced by oriental non-European arabic, persian and Syrian influenced Byzantine ornamentics.
10.The renaissance & humanism , the reformation and the enlightenment did not influenced/affected the Orthodox (Eastern European) countries.
11. Before 1870, the industrialization that had developed in Western and Central Europe and the United States did not extend in any significant way to the rest of the world. In Eastern Europe, industrialization lagged far behind, and started only in the 20th century. Their infrastructural and economic development was also very very slow, and many determinant factors of modern civilization - as we called them as civilized way of life - (railways, the electrification of cities, drain & sewer systems, water pipe systems, spread of tap water and bathrooms, telecommuncations etc... spread many-many decades (60-80 years) later.
It is no wonder that their contribution in science technology and innovations are completely negligible in Human history by the WESTERN standards.-- Filederchest ( talk) 14:41, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
I acknowledging your message but you are absolutely wrong. Poland wasn’t occupied by some obscure Nazis.

Dear Irina, please revert the category edit on Assar Lindbeck so that it includes my edit. Please think before you revert things: one look at the content of Assar Lindbeck shows that there cannot be any question about including him in "Category:Labor economists" as he is the founder of the insider-outsider theory of employment (together with Dennis Snower), i.e. a major explanation for structural unemployment. If you need further evidence, just go to https://ideas.repec.org/top/top.lab.html#authors - a ranking of the top 10% of labor economists - and you will see that Assar Lindbeck is included in the list. Thank you very much in advance. -- Arbraxan ( talk) 21:08, 14 February 2018 (UTC)

... - I think it was via "what links here" at the wikilinked essay that was incorrectly labeled "controversial", and that's why I removed the misinformation.

Some Sections of the Article are really useless. The Section about Armenians and Azerbaijanis is accurate but those about Ukrainians has to be corrected because the Holodomor was a Result of Stalins Incompetence and not of Racism.-- Janos Hajnal ( talk) 11:24, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
"... are Ukrainian Nationalists"within moments. If you actually have a constructive argument to be tabled, take it to the appropriate article talk page. Your current 'arguments' are rhetoric and personal opinion, therefore are unacceptable for article talk pages according to policy and guidelines. Do not waste my time, your time, or anyone else's time with diatribe befitting a blog/forum. In simple terms,
"Do not use the talk page as a forum or soapbox for discussing the topic: the talk page is for discussing how to improve the article, not vent your feelings about it."Thank you for your attention and consideration. -- Iryna Harpy ( talk) 18:47, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
Hello, Iryna. My edit was not a test, why should it be? "в Київі" is wrong, there is no such locative form for the word Київ. The locative form is Києві, as source number 8 in that article has - «Се повісті минулих літ звідки почалась Руська земля, хто в Києві перший став княжити і звідки Руська земля стала буть». You can also check a dictionary. I expect you will revert your edit; if not, I shall correct that word again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.4.72.39 ( talk) 07:31, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Hello Iryna. I understand that you disagree with some of my (and Axxxion's) recent edits on Luhansk People's Republic. Is there any way we could discuss the changes on the talk page of the article?

Hi Iryna, I am responding to your message that you sent me about your revert. I was restoring the page to what it had before - you will notice that there were statistics for 10 cities and metropolitan areas and these were narrowed at some point to three. However, the paragraph still says "10 census metropolitan areas" but the revision (which you reverted to only has three).
I am trying to keep the page to the version that it had previously. As for the sources, it is the same source as for the three cities and three metropolitan areas. I will be reverting the page to keep its integrity with previous versions.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.145.113.244 ( talk) 05:29, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
Dear Iyrna, It is rude of you to threaten me this way. I was trying to contribute to the website, I wasn’t trying to be disruptive.

The differences in culture (material and verbal), legal constitutional, societal, political, economical, infrastructural, technological and scientific development, between Orthodox countries and Western Christian (Catholic-Protestant) countries were similar great, as the differences between Northern America (USA Canada) and Southern- (Latino) America.
MEMENTO:
Western things which were not existed in orthodox world:
1. POLITICAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL development: Medieval appearance of parliaments (The parliament is a legislative body(!), DO NOT CONFUSE with the “councils of monarchs” which existed since the very beginnings of human history), the estates of the realm, the clergy, the nobility, and the commoners,
2. Local SELF GOVERNMENT status of big royal/imperial cities, which are the direct ancestors (the continuity) of modern local self governmental systems. Do not confuse the local self governments with the so-called city states. Sovereign city states were the earliest form of states in Human history ( For example: Sumerian city states), and that legal concept has nothing common with the self-governments/local governments of cities within a country or within an Empire.
3. ECONOMY: The medieval appearance of banking systems and social effects and status of urban bourgeoisie, the absolute dominance of money-economy (when the vast majority of trade based on money and the taxes customs duties were collected in money) from the 12th -13th century, instead of the former primitive bartel-based commerce (barter dominated the economies orthodox world until the 17-18th centuries.)
4. HIGHER EDUCATION: The medieval appearance of universities and the medieval appearance of SECULAR intellectuals,
5. CULTURE: Knights, the knight-culture, chivalric code, (and the technological effects of crusades from the Holy Land,) Music and literature: courtly love, troubadours, Gregorian chant, Ars nova, Organum, Motet, Madrigal, Canon and Ballata, Liturgical drama, Novellas, medieval western THEATER: Mystery or cycle plays, morality and passion plays, which developed into the renaissance theater, the direct ancestor of modern theaters. Philosophy: Scholasticism and humanist philosophy
6. The medieval usage of Latin alphabet and medieval spread of movable type printing,
7. TECHNOLOGY: The guild system is an association of artisans or merchants, which organized the training education, and directed master's exam system for artisians. Due to the compulsory foreign studies of the artisian master's candidates, the guilds played key role in the fast spread of technologies and industrial knowledge in the medieval Western World.
8. The defence systems & fortifications: The spread of stone/brick castle defense -systems, the town-walls of western cities from the 11th century. (In the orthodox world, only the capital cities had such a walls . The countries of the Balkan region and the territory of Russian states fell under Ottoman/Mongolian rule very rapidly - with a single decesive open-field battle - due to the lack of the networks of stone/brick castles and fortresses in these countries. The only exception was the greek inhabited Byzantine territories which were well fortified.)
9. FINEARTS and ARCHITECTURE: western architecture, sculpture paintings and fine-arts: the Romanesque style, the Gothic style and the Renaissance style. The orthodox church buildings and „palaces(?)” were very little, they had primitive structure and poor decorations, their style were influenced by oriental non-European arabic, persian and Syrian influenced Byzantine ornamentics.
10.The renaissance & humanism , the reformation and the enlightenment did not influenced/affected the Orthodox (Eastern European) countries.
11. Before 1870, the industrialization that had developed in Western and Central Europe and the United States did not extend in any significant way to the rest of the world. In Eastern Europe, industrialization lagged far behind, and started only in the 20th century. Their infrastructural and economic development was also very very slow, and many determinant factors of modern civilization - as we called them as civilized way of life - (railways, the electrification of cities, drain & sewer systems, water pipe systems, spread of tap water and bathrooms, telecommuncations etc... spread many-many decades (60-80 years) later.
It is no wonder that their contribution in science technology and innovations are completely negligible in Human history by the WESTERN standards.-- Filederchest ( talk) 14:41, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
I acknowledging your message but you are absolutely wrong. Poland wasn’t occupied by some obscure Nazis. Poland was occupied by the Third Reich and from 1943 by the Greater German Reich or you could shorten it to Nazi Germany. Please don't exercise your senior editor standing to bully junior editors.

Dear Irina, please revert the category edit on Assar Lindbeck so that it includes my edit. Please think before you revert things: one look at the content of Assar Lindbeck shows that there cannot be any question about including him in "Category:Labor economists" as he is the founder of the insider-outsider theory of employment (together with Dennis Snower), i.e. a major explanation for structural unemployment. If you need further evidence, just go to https://ideas.repec.org/top/top.lab.html#authors - a ranking of the top 10% of labor economists - and you will see that Assar Lindbeck is included in the list. Thank you very much in advance. -- Arbraxan ( talk) 21:08, 14 February 2018 (UTC)

... - I think it was via "what links here" at the wikilinked essay that was incorrectly labeled "controversial", and that's why I removed the misinformation. I suppose if the page was no longer accessible, it wouldn't matter. What made you revert if it's a failed proposal? Atsme 📞 📧 01:01, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
Some Sections of the Article are really useless. The Section about Armenians and Azerbaijanis is accurate but those about Ukrainians has to be corrected because the Holodomor was a Result of Stalins Incompetence and not of Racism.-- Janos Hajnal ( talk) 11:24, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
"... are Ukrainian Nationalists"within moments. If you actually have a constructive argument to be tabled, take it to the appropriate article talk page. Your current 'arguments' are rhetoric and personal opinion, therefore are unacceptable for article talk pages according to policy and guidelines. Do not waste my time, your time, or anyone else's time with diatribe befitting a blog/forum. In simple terms,
"Do not use the talk page as a forum or soapbox for discussing the topic: the talk page is for discussing how to improve the article, not vent your feelings about it."Thank you for your attention and consideration. -- Iryna Harpy ( talk) 18:47, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
Hello, Iryna. My edit was not a test, why should it be? "в Київі" is wrong, there is no such locative form for the word Київ. The locative form is Києві, as source number 8 in that article has - «Се повісті минулих літ звідки почалась Руська земля, хто в Києві перший став княжити і звідки Руська земля стала буть». You can also check a dictionary. I expect you will revert your edit; if not, I shall correct that word again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.4.72.39 ( talk) 07:31, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Вітаю, я помітив що ви часто правите "список людей з України", 1) а хіба не варто перейменувати ту статтю на список українців? 2)Можливо варто порозкидати портрети по статті, бо таке оформлення як зараз трохи дивне і не гарне.

Hello Iryna. I understand that you disagree with some of my (and Axxxion's) recent edits on Luhansk People's Republic. Is there any way we could discuss the changes on the talk page of the article? You left several rather unpleasant messages on my talk page, I think this is rather uncalled for. Thanks, Heptor talk 22:34, 29 April 2018 (UTC)
Irina Kharpi, in this edit, you arbitrarily deleted my commments and slandered me as someone who engages in advocacy and disruptive editing.

Hi Iryna, I am responding to your message that you sent me about your revert. I was restoring the page to what it had before - you will notice that there were statistics for 10 cities and metropolitan areas and these were narrowed at some point to three. However, the paragraph still says "10 census metropolitan areas" but the revision (which you reverted to only has three).
I am trying to keep the page to the version that it had previously. As for the sources, it is the same source as for the three cities and three metropolitan areas. I will be reverting the page to keep its integrity with previous versions.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.145.113.244 ( talk) 05:29, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
Dear Iyrna, It is rude of you to threaten me this way. I was trying to contribute to the website, I wasn’t trying to be disruptive. What you said to me about blocking me from editing was disrespectful and unethical. If you were raised this way it is not my fault. Please watch your language next time or I will complain to the website . — Preceding unsigned comment added by D7oom021 ( talk • contribs) 13:32, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
