On 30 June 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article August Meyszner, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that SS-Gruppenführer und Generalleutnant der Polizei August Meyszner (pictured) was hanged in 1947 for overseeing the killing of as many as 8,000 Jewish women and children using a gas van? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/August Meyszner. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

G'day, mate, hope you are enjoying a pleasant Saturday morning. I have just expanded the article on the 2/1st Machine Gun Battalion (Australia). I know that you have expressed some interest in the MG battalions in the past, so I wonder if you wouldn't mind taking a quick look and adding to it if you think something is missing. Also, 2/3rd Machine Gun Battalion (Australia) is still a stub, which I probably won't get to for a while, so if you are keen on a project of your own...

Hi! In your GA nomination review at Talk:Marija Bursać, you claim (if I understood you correctly) that photographs published prior to 1977 are public domain in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Unaware of this, I uploaded File:Vahida Maglajlić.jpg as a fair use image. It was published in Belgrade in 1975, so is it actually PD? This article features two more photographs of Maglajlić (one of which I find especially interesting as it depicts her smoking) but they appear to have been provided by a relative of hers.

First off, thanks for editing in the Balkan topics area. I gave up editing on Eritrea/Somalia/Ethiopia topics because I was outnumbered by really strange partisan POV pushing and I assume it's similar. In the CFD space, editors often sincerely think a category should be deleted so they vandalize it to try and make sure their nomination passes. I think what happened here was just impatience, but that's where the sensitivity is coming from. I didn't intend to frustrate you with procedural hurdles and I'm sorry it came off that way.

Hello Peacemaker67! I have a request – could you and your colleagues at WP:MILHIST please take a look at the article Military Airspace, and figure out if it can be salvaged, or should be merged somewhere, or should perhaps be deleted? I came across this article during a recent failed WP:RfA, and it's really beyond me to figure out what should be done with it, so I figured I'd run it by someone WP:MILHIST to see if they could figure out what to do with it.

Thanks for uploading File:Jovan Naumović.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 ( talk) 22:12, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

Gday. I'm mindful that this may sound offensive to others so I'll try to choose my words carefully. I'm writing this simply to give you some background that you may or may not have been aware of. FWIW, I believe the editor that sometimes lists these is well-meaning but may have some challenges in real life that sometimes present difficulties for them here. Policy [4] [5] aside, I have sometimes tried to take a softer approach as a result. Regardless, I agree with your points re the purpose of MHA overall and I concede its likely that my reticence to address the issue previously (for the reasons I stated above) may have contributed to the current situation. All the best. Anotherclown ( talk) 09:54, 27 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I don't think we've ever communicated directly but I read your talk page because I was actually wondering if you were "an interested ethnicity" of any of the groups of the former Yugoslavia. As you are not, and given that you "spent some time there [Yugoslavia] myself in 1990s (mostly in Croatia and Bosnia & Herzegovina)", I was wondering exactly what appalled you. I also am not of any ethnicity related to the former Yugoslavia (i.e. Serb, Croat, Albanian, Bosniak, Montenegrin, et al) but I have obsessed about the breakup of Yugoslavia and I am afraid that I cannot share your neutrality, although I wish I could. I consider the election of Tuđman and the HDZ in 1991 to be one of the darkest moments of post-WWII 20th century. Whatever mitigating excuses can be made for this vote (despite polls in Croatia which gave, intentionally or otherwise, the false impression that the HDZ was not the choice of the majority of voters), to expect Serbs to live under the revanchist, neo-ustashist, hatemongering HDZ, bankrolled by the diaspora which deserves the same adjectives, was intolerable. Whatever the Serbs ever did, after the genocide inflicted on them during their own Holocaust, I will always support them. On another topic, have you noticed that various US television programs, which I am sure air in Australia, such as NCIS, NCIS Los Angeles, and ER (which actor Goran Visnjic, son-in-law of Antun Vrdoljak, who merits no description but whose bio should explain enough), among others, (have) engaged in anti-Serb propaganda and storylines. Aside from the ER-Visnjic nexus, I don't understand why, do you? Anyway, thanks for listening. Quis separabit? 01:57, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

I can see that you are very well versed in WWII and modern Yugoslav history and need your help. An Anti-Croat Sentiment page has been receiving work. This pages has been put up for deletion many times over the years by vandals and there is constant vandalism effecting the work of the page. The page still has work needing to be done. There has also been a recent editor who claims the page has issues. some of which I agree with, some not so much. I am not that technically skilled with Wikipedia tools (I can edit) or it's protocols, but some seem to have it out for this page. So I could use your help in fixing the article. Some of 23 editor edits make me question his neutrality, making it quite worrysome. Thanks Stariradio ( talk) 02:10, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

I am not siding with anyone. Just stop edit warring and resolve the issue on the talk page. It is the only option. Again you do not OWN the article, so resolve the dispute on the talk page, or I will have to report you.

I neglected to put the reason for the article name change when I was doing it. It actually has to do with a colloquy we are having here as to whether or not a war criminal, particularly an officer, convicted of war crimes should be disambiguated simply as "soldier".

It's hard to say because the words were something of a neologism in Croatian and were then imported near-verbatim into English, but with little concern for singular and plural. The Croatian singular is the word that ends with -a (pronounced like the 'a' in 'father'), and the Croatian plural is the word that ends with -e (pronounced like the 'e' in 'merry'). There was an attempt to form an English plural with the word 'Ustashi', but it just didn't seem to catch on...?
The main article uses the Croatian plural because they were a group, similarly to e.g. Cossacks. But then when you combine that noun with another one, I'd say it's common practice in English to revert to singular, similarly to e.g. Cossack Hetmanate. So the title Ustaše Militia seems like it should be renamed to Ustaša Militia to match WP:UE better? But do check sources to make sure we're not making up something that's never used in practice. -- Joy [shallot] ( talk) 11:45, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
I have listed the article for peer review. If you have time, I would appreciate your feedback. Cheers MisterBee1966 ( talk) 15:31, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
For the present time at least. Needless to say, I was won over by your arguments and sourcing and I continue to feel that was a WP:SNOW issue forced, by way of decree, against both community and local consensus. Still, if Drmies does not feel there is a rigorous case to be made for abuse of privileges, there are limited options remaining if Fut. Per. is willing to use his tools to impose that reading. You could always raise the matter at WP:VPP, WP:BLPN, or WP:CD; a more robust display of community support for the standard application of verifiability principles might cause Fut. Per. to re-examine acting unilaterally. But you can bet the debate will remain just as onerous as the last one, with many of the same arguments furthered, and by similar parties. Unless you have a surplus of time and patience, may be best just to let the issue rest for now, though I don't like saying as much.
I'm rather concerned by the degree to which OR approaches seem to be becoming more and more tolerated in certain areas, often through the vague invocation of "BLP" as a buzz word even where there isn't a specific community-supported principle offered that is found anywhere in WP:BLP (or elsewhere in policy) that actually supports the specific argument being made, as I feel was the case here. Maybe that observation is impressionistic and inaccurate, but it just seems like every other RfC I participate in lately involves a protracted fight against obvious synth that would have quickly been dealt with a year and a half ago. Maybe its a good sign, as our new editor numbers are supposedly moving upwards again for the first time in years, but it often seems to originate with experienced editors who really ought to know better. Anyway, that's by diatribe on the matter; better luck next time! Feel free to ping me to the discussion if the matter is revisited. Snow let's rap 08:13, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
Hi there. I came across the article Croatia in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and find it to be off. A number of statements there seem unsourced and written in a POV style at times. I feel that historically sound statements from the article should be merged into the main Kingdom of Yugoslavia article. What do you think? Maxforige77 ( talk) 19:12, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
A couple of months ago I had an extensive discussion with an anonymous editor at Talk:Triune Kingdom#Discussion about the recent edits that you might find... well... mind-numbingly subtle :) but indicative compared to our recent discussion. In the description of a term applied only de jure, I insisted on putting it in a more of a real-world context, whereas the other editor insisted on introducing it more literally. However, nobody else is watching that minor article talk page, and I never got around to calling a proper RFC, so the issue got stuck there. Now after I recalled the issue, I can hardly figure out how to phrase the RFC question. Penny for your thoughts? -- Joy [shallot] ( talk) 10:26, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Here are plenty of reliable sources that verify it was published in 1942.
See http://germanpropaganda.org/der-untermensch/ and for the English translation of the text http://www.holocaustresearchproject.org/holoprelude/deruntermensch.html (note "Editor: The Reichsführer-SS SS Office Berlin, 1942 DHM, Berlin Do 56/685")
Here is a full scan of it https://archive.org/details/SS-Hauptamt-Der-Untermensch.

Hi! So I noticed your note about the AfD Stats tool and how it's undercounting the AfDs you've voted in on WP:ORCP. After reading through some of your votes at AfDs, I noticed it's because you're not using the standard bolded !votes for AfDs. Instead of "Keep" or "Delete", your !votes read "Support" or "Oppose". The tool can't read !votes that are worded this way, basically. I'd be willing to do an AWB run through your AfD votes so we can fix that, if you want. APerson ( talk!) 15:47, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

Also, 2/3rd Machine Gun Battalion (Australia) is still a stub, which I probably won't get to for a while, so if you are keen on a project of your own... Cheers, AustralianRupert ( talk) 00:25, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
Hi! In your GA nomination review at Talk:Marija Bursać, you claim (if I understood you correctly) that photographs published prior to 1977 are public domain in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Unaware of this, I uploaded File:Vahida Maglajlić.jpg as a fair use image. It was published in Belgrade in 1975, so is it actually PD? This article features two more photographs of Maglajlić (one of which I find especially interesting as it depicts her smoking) but they appear to have been provided by a relative of hers.

At WP:RFPP, in this edit you complained about Youtube copyvios. Can you be more specific? I looked at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=py_-I17Phqo.

First off, thanks for editing in the Balkan topics area. I gave up editing on Eritrea/Somalia/Ethiopia topics because I was outnumbered by really strange partisan POV pushing and I assume it's similar. In the CFD space, editors often sincerely think a category should be deleted so they vandalize it to try and make sure their nomination passes. I think what happened here was just impatience, but that's where the sensitivity is coming from. I didn't intend to frustrate you with procedural hurdles and I'm sorry it came off that way.

Hello Peacemaker67! I have a request – could you and your colleagues at WP:MILHIST please take a look at the article Military Airspace, and figure out if it can be salvaged, or should be merged somewhere, or should perhaps be deleted? I came across this article during a recent failed WP:RfA, and it's really beyond me to figure out what should be done with it, so I figured I'd run it by someone WP:MILHIST to see if they could figure out what to do with it.

Thanks for uploading File:Jovan Naumović.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy.

Gday. I'm mindful that this may sound offensive to others so I'll try to choose my words carefully. I'm writing this simply to give you some background that you may or may not have been aware of. FWIW, I believe the editor that sometimes lists these is well-meaning but may have some challenges in real life that sometimes present difficulties for them here. Policy [4] [5] aside, I have sometimes tried to take a softer approach as a result. Regardless, I agree with your points re the purpose of MHA overall and I concede its likely that my reticence to address the issue previously (for the reasons I stated above) may have contributed to the current situation.

Hi, I don't think we've ever communicated directly but I read your talk page because I was actually wondering if you were "an interested ethnicity" of any of the groups of the former Yugoslavia. As you are not, and given that you "spent some time there [Yugoslavia] myself in 1990s (mostly in Croatia and Bosnia & Herzegovina)", I was wondering exactly what appalled you. I also am not of any ethnicity related to the former Yugoslavia (i.e. Serb, Croat, Albanian, Bosniak, Montenegrin, et al) but I have obsessed about the breakup of Yugoslavia and I am afraid that I cannot share your neutrality, although I wish I could. I consider the election of Tuđman and the HDZ in 1991 to be one of the darkest moments of post-WWII 20th century. Whatever mitigating excuses can be made for this vote (despite polls in Croatia which gave, intentionally or otherwise, the false impression that the HDZ was not the choice of the majority of voters), to expect Serbs to live under the revanchist, neo-ustashist, hatemongering HDZ, bankrolled by the diaspora which deserves the same adjectives, was intolerable. Whatever the Serbs ever did, after the genocide inflicted on them during their own Holocaust, I will always support them. On another topic, have you noticed that various US television programs, which I am sure air in Australia, such as NCIS, NCIS Los Angeles, and ER (which actor Goran Visnjic, son-in-law of Antun Vrdoljak, who merits no description but whose bio should explain enough), among others, (have) engaged in anti-Serb propaganda and storylines. Aside from the ER-Visnjic nexus, I don't understand why, do you? Anyway, thanks for listening. Quis separabit? 01:57, 7 November 2015 (UTC)

It's hard to say because the words were something of a neologism in Croatian and were then imported near-verbatim into English, but with little concern for singular and plural. The Croatian singular is the word that ends with -a (pronounced like the 'a' in 'father'), and the Croatian plural is the word that ends with -e (pronounced like the 'e' in 'merry'). There was an attempt to form an English plural with the word 'Ustashi', but it just didn't seem to catch on...?
The main article uses the Croatian plural because they were a group, similarly to e.g. Cossacks. But then when you combine that noun with another one, I'd say it's common practice in English to revert to singular, similarly to e.g. Cossack Hetmanate. So the title Ustaše Militia seems like it should be renamed to Ustaša Militia to match WP:UE better? But do check sources to make sure we're not making up something that's never used in practice. -- Joy [shallot] ( talk) 11:45, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

For the present time at least. Needless to say, I was won over by your arguments and sourcing and I continue to feel that was a WP:SNOW issue forced, by way of decree, against both community and local consensus. Still, if Drmies does not feel there is a rigorous case to be made for abuse of privileges, there are limited options remaining if Fut. Per. is willing to use his tools to impose that reading. You could always raise the matter at WP:VPP, WP:BLPN, or WP:CD; a more robust display of community support for the standard application of verifiability principles might cause Fut. Per. to re-examine acting unilaterally. But you can bet the debate will remain just as onerous as the last one, with many of the same arguments furthered, and by similar parties. Unless you have a surplus of time and patience, may be best just to let the issue rest for now, though I don't like saying as much.
I'm rather concerned by the degree to which OR approaches seem to be becoming more and more tolerated in certain areas, often through the vague invocation of "BLP" as a buzz word even where there isn't a specific community-supported principle offered that is found anywhere in WP:BLP (or elsewhere in policy) that actually supports the specific argument being made, as I feel was the case here. Maybe that observation is impressionistic and inaccurate, but it just seems like every other RfC I participate in lately involves a protracted fight against obvious synth that would have quickly been dealt with a year and a half ago. Maybe its a good sign, as our new editor numbers are supposedly moving upwards again for the first time in years, but it often seems to originate with experienced editors who really ought to know better. Anyway, that's by diatribe on the matter; better luck next time! Feel free to ping me to the discussion if the matter is revisited. Snow let's rap 08:13, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
Hi there. I came across the article Croatia in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and find it to be off. A number of statements there seem unsourced and written in a POV style at times.

A couple of months ago I had an extensive discussion with an anonymous editor at Talk:Triune Kingdom#Discussion about the recent edits that you might find... well... mind-numbingly subtle :) but indicative compared to our recent discussion. In the description of a term applied only de jure, I insisted on putting it in a more of a real-world context, whereas the other editor insisted on introducing it more literally. However, nobody else is watching that minor article talk page, and I never got around to calling a proper RFC, so the issue got stuck there. Now after I recalled the issue, I can hardly figure out how to phrase the RFC question. Penny for your thoughts? -- Joy [shallot] ( talk) 10:26, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi! So I noticed your note about the AfD Stats tool and how it's undercounting the AfDs you've voted in on WP:ORCP. After reading through some of your votes at AfDs, I noticed it's because you're not using the standard bolded !votes for AfDs. Instead of "Keep" or "Delete", your !votes read "Support" or "Oppose". The tool can't read !votes that are worded this way, basically. I'd be willing to do an AWB run through your AfD votes so we can fix that, if you want. APerson ( talk!) 15:47, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

Still got a problem with no title for the Warship International article, mate. If it doesn't actually have one, as was common back then, use the section name in the magazine.-- Sturmvogel 66 ( talk) 15:02, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
The article 40th Infantry Division Slavonska you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:40th Infantry Division Slavonska for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know.
Moving forward, you may want to consider developing a template listing all of the infantry formations of the Royal Yugoslav Army. Cheers MisterBee1966 ( talk) 07:51, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
