Welcome!

Hello Dƶoxar! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

This is NOT some automated message...it's from a real person. You can talk to me right now. I noticed you've just joined, and wanted to give you a few tips to get you started. If you have any questions, please talk to us. The tips below should help you to get started. Best of luck! — Mariah-Yulia •  Talk to me! 21:33, 18 November 2009 (UTC) reply

  • You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.
  • Ask for help. Talk to us live, or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.
  • Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example, Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009.
  • When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page.

If you are interested in Ukraine-related themes, you may want to check out the Ukraine Portal , particularly the Portal:Ukraine/New article announcements and Portal:Ukraine/Ukraine-related Wikipedia notice board. The New article announcements board is probably the most important and the most attended one. Please don't forget to announce there the new articles you create. Adding both boards to your watchlist is probably a good idea. You can also join WikiProject Ukraine, a tool to help perfect the Ukrainian related articles on the English Wikipedia. We would be glad to have you as a member of WikiProject Ukraine!


Want to know more?

I think it could be handy for you to browse through some of the links below so as to become more familiar with how Wikipedia works. If you need any help you can ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and another Wikipedian will show up shortly. Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking or by typing four tildes "~~~~"; this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you're already loving Wikipedia and plan on becoming a Wikipedian you might consider being " adopted" by a more experienced editor, just paste {{Adoptme}} into your userpage and you will gladly be adopted! You might also consider joining a WikiProject so as to collaborate with others in creating and improving articles of your interest. Click here for a directory of all the WikiProjects. Finally, please do your best to always fill in the edit summary field.
Happy editing and once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia!

Some editing suggestions

Please read the guidelines for when to mark edits as minor ( what's this?). Note that you should not mark an edit as a minor edit when you are adding content to an article. Your additions of Ukranian examples are welcome (thanks!), but they are significant not minor changes.

I suggest that you check the results of your edit using the (Show preview) button before clicking on the (Save page) button. That way you can catch errors before making your edits public, and can avoid having a series of intermediate edits saved in the permanent history of the page.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Cherkassy. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.-- Toddy1 ( talk) 19:08, 18 March 2012 (UTC) reply

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Cherkassy, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.-- Toddy1 ( talk) 20:47, 18 March 2012 (UTC) reply

/ɦ/ in Ukrainian

Hello. This consonant is pharyngeal, so it must be linked to Voiced pharyngeal fricative in the consonant table. If you disagree about its place of articulation, first find a source that backs up your claim. Peter238 ( talk) 11:50, 6 July 2014 (UTC) reply

Actually, it's disputable. For instance in Сучасна українська мова: Підручник. ред. О.Д. Пономарів, Київ, 2001, с. 21 this sound is classified as glottal (pharyngeal) and in Pugh, Press. Ukrainian A comprehensive grammar, 1999, p. 23 as just glottal.-- Dƶoxar ( talk) 18:53, 6 July 2014 (UTC) reply

Featuring your work on Wikipedia's front page: DYKs

Thank you for your recent articles, including Executed Renaissance, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK.

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages

Thank you for your recent articles, including Executed Renaissance, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 22:40, 7 July 2014 (UTC) reply

Anatoli Prokopenko

Hi, I saw your edit on Viktor Prokopenko. I was wondering if you had any information concerning Anatoli Prokopenko. Are you completely certain that they are two different people? Elspamo4 ( talk) 20:32, 15 August 2014 (UTC) reply

I've made this conclusion based on the Prokopenko statistics. No reliable source I've seen proves that he has worked with Qatar, so if some Anatoliy Prokopenko has coached the team he must be the different person. Although it might be wrong conclusion, but anyway we need some reliable proves that exactly he was a coach of the Qatar team.-- Dƶoxar ( talk) 08:05, 16 August 2014 (UTC) reply

Please note that there is a broad consensus that Kiev is used in the English Wikipedia, and not Kyiv. This consensus has been documented at Talk:Kiev and even has a dedicated page. Please do not change the spelling to non-consensus version. Thank you for understanding.-- Ymblanter ( talk) 19:58, 19 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Actually, I see a consensus about the name of the article about Kyiv, not about the common use of the city name in the English Wikipedia. Could you give me a limk to this concrete consensus you wrote above? -- Dƶoxar ( talk) 20:05, 19 October 2014 (UTC) reply
My reading of the consensus is that the name of the city in English is Kiev, and that Kyiv is not English.-- Ymblanter ( talk) 20:07, 19 October 2014 (UTC) reply
Yes, this is your reading. But e.g. Oxford dictionary and a lot of other authoritative linguistic literature concerning English vocabulary states that Kyiv is an alternate version of Kiev, and it's OK to use it in standart English language. The article had been written with use of Kyiv version, later some anonimous user has changed it to Kiev. I consider this change as unreasonable, so I have moved it back. Where is a problem of this edit? There is no rule limiting use if Kyiv in English Wikipedia.-- Dƶoxar ( talk) 20:14, 19 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Edit warring over name of Kiev

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at Ahatanhel Krymsky shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Demir-Kapu moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Demir-Kapu, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. ( ?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed ( verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption.

Article about Ukraine

Hi. I saw your discussion about the article Ukraine. In my opinion, the material presented in brief information about the country on the history of state formation is incomplete. If you look at the articles of neighboring countries, they indicate the history of their state formation since the Middle Ages. As far as I understood from the logic of those who supported the deletion of information, they were guided by the logic that only a list of historical states, which are called modern countries, is indicated. Example, the First Bulgarian Kingdom - Bulgaria; Duchy of Austria - Austria. But historically this is not correct and is a violation of historical truth, because here the goal is to point out the state-building origins of modern countries. Accordingly, in brief information about Ukraine should be mentioned Kievan Rus, Galicia-Volyn principality, Hetmanate. What can be done to correct this article?

I was trying to make both articles neutral and based on the reliable sources. The opponent's edits were obviously biased, contradicting conclusions of autoritative historicians.

Unblock discussion

Please read the following and adjust your unblock request accordingly.Opponents? Wikipedia is not a WP:BATTLEGROUND. Attract attention? Please read WP:POINT. Just because you discuss does not grant you a license to edit war. I'm sorry, but I cannot unblock you at this time. You have not adequately addressed the reason for your block.

Please see our policy on edit warring. In the event of a content dispute, editors are required to stop reverting, discuss, and seek consensus among editors on the relevant talk page. If discussions reach an impasse, editors can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution.

Points to ponder:

Edit warring is wrong even if one is right.
Any arguments in favor of one's preferred version should be made on the relevant talk page and not in an unblock appeal.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome!

Hello Dƶoxar! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

This is NOT some automated message...it's from a real person. You can talk to me right now. I noticed you've just joined, and wanted to give you a few tips to get you started. If you have any questions, please talk to us. The tips below should help you to get started. Best of luck! — Mariah-Yulia •  Talk to me! 21:33, 18 November 2009 (UTC) reply

  • You don't need to read anything - anybody can edit; just go to an article and edit it. Be Bold, but please don't put silly stuff in - it will be removed very quickly, and will annoy people.
  • Ask for help. Talk to us live, or edit this page, put {{helpme}} and describe what help you need. Someone will reply very quickly - usually within a few minutes.
  • Edit existing articles, before you make your own. Look at some subjects that you know about, and see if you can make them a bit better. For example, Wikipedia:Cleanup#2009.
  • When you're ready, read about Your first article. It should be about something well-known, and it will need references.

Good luck with editing; please drop me a line some time on my own talk page.

If you are interested in Ukraine-related themes, you may want to check out the Ukraine Portal , particularly the Portal:Ukraine/New article announcements and Portal:Ukraine/Ukraine-related Wikipedia notice board. The New article announcements board is probably the most important and the most attended one. Please don't forget to announce there the new articles you create. Adding both boards to your watchlist is probably a good idea. You can also join WikiProject Ukraine, a tool to help perfect the Ukrainian related articles on the English Wikipedia. We would be glad to have you as a member of WikiProject Ukraine!


Want to know more?

I think it could be handy for you to browse through some of the links below so as to become more familiar with how Wikipedia works. If you need any help you can ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and another Wikipedian will show up shortly. Please remember to sign your name on talk pages by clicking or by typing four tildes "~~~~"; this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you're already loving Wikipedia and plan on becoming a Wikipedian you might consider being " adopted" by a more experienced editor, just paste {{Adoptme}} into your userpage and you will gladly be adopted! You might also consider joining a WikiProject so as to collaborate with others in creating and improving articles of your interest. Click here for a directory of all the WikiProjects. Finally, please do your best to always fill in the edit summary field.
Happy editing and once again, welcome to the fantastic world of Wikipedia!

Some editing suggestions

Please read the guidelines for when to mark edits as minor ( what's this?). Note that you should not mark an edit as a minor edit when you are adding content to an article. Your additions of Ukranian examples are welcome (thanks!), but they are significant not minor changes.

I suggest that you check the results of your edit using the (Show preview) button before clicking on the (Save page) button. That way you can catch errors before making your edits public, and can avoid having a series of intermediate edits saved in the permanent history of the page.

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Cherkassy. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.-- Toddy1 ( talk) 19:08, 18 March 2012 (UTC) reply

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Cherkassy, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary.

/ɦ/ in Ukrainian

Hello. This consonant is pharyngeal, so it must be linked to Voiced pharyngeal fricative in the consonant table. If you disagree about its place of articulation, first find a source that backs up your claim. Peter238 ( talk) 11:50, 6 July 2014 (UTC) reply

Actually, it's disputable. For instance in Сучасна українська мова: Підручник. ред. О.Д. Пономарів, Київ, 2001, с. 21 this sound is classified as glottal (pharyngeal) and in Pugh, Press. Ukrainian A comprehensive grammar, 1999, p. 23 as just glottal.-- Dƶoxar ( talk) 18:53, 6 July 2014 (UTC) reply

Featuring your work on Wikipedia's front page: DYKs

Thank you for your recent articles, including Executed Renaissance, which I read with interest. When you create an extensive and well referenced article, you may want to have it featured on Wikipedia's main page in the Did You Know section. Articles included there will be read by thousands of our viewers. To do so, add your article to the list at T:TDYK.

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages

Thank you for your recent articles, including Executed Renaissance, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 22:40, 7 July 2014 (UTC) reply

Anatoli Prokopenko

Hi, I saw your edit on Viktor Prokopenko. I was wondering if you had any information concerning Anatoli Prokopenko. Are you completely certain that they are two different people? Elspamo4 ( talk) 20:32, 15 August 2014 (UTC) reply

I've made this conclusion based on the Prokopenko statistics. No reliable source I've seen proves that he has worked with Qatar, so if some Anatoliy Prokopenko has coached the team he must be the different person. Although it might be wrong conclusion, but anyway we need some reliable proves that exactly he was a coach of the Qatar team.-- Dƶoxar ( talk) 08:05, 16 August 2014 (UTC) reply

Please note that there is a broad consensus that Kiev is used in the English Wikipedia, and not Kyiv. This consensus has been documented at Talk:Kiev and even has a dedicated page. Please do not change the spelling to non-consensus version. Thank you for understanding.-- Ymblanter ( talk) 19:58, 19 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Actually, I see a consensus about the name of the article about Kyiv, not about the common use of the city name in the English Wikipedia. Could you give me a limk to this concrete consensus you wrote above? -- Dƶoxar ( talk) 20:05, 19 October 2014 (UTC) reply
My reading of the consensus is that the name of the city in English is Kiev, and that Kyiv is not English.-- Ymblanter ( talk) 20:07, 19 October 2014 (UTC) reply
Yes, this is your reading. But e.g. Oxford dictionary and a lot of other authoritative linguistic literature concerning English vocabulary states that Kyiv is an alternate version of Kiev, and it's OK to use it in standart English language. The article had been written with use of Kyiv version, later some anonimous user has changed it to Kiev. I consider this change as unreasonable, so I have moved it back. Where is a problem of this edit? There is no rule limiting use if Kyiv in English Wikipedia.-- Dƶoxar ( talk) 20:14, 19 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

Edit warring over name of Kiev

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at Ahatanhel Krymsky shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you get reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Article about Ukraine

Hi. I saw your discussion about the article Ukraine. In my opinion, the material presented in brief information about the country on the history of state formation is incomplete. If you look at the articles of neighboring countries, they indicate the history of their state formation since the Middle Ages. As far as I understood from the logic of those who supported the deletion of information, they were guided by the logic that only a list of historical states, which are called modern countries, is indicated. Example, the First Bulgarian Kingdom - Bulgaria; Duchy of Austria - Austria. But historically this is not correct and is a violation of historical truth, because here the goal is to point out the state-building origins of modern countries. Accordingly, in brief information about Ukraine should be mentioned Kievan Rus, Galicia-Volyn principality, Hetmanate. What can be done to correct this article?

Unblock discussion

Please read the following and adjust your unblock request accordingly.Opponents? Wikipedia is not a WP:BATTLEGROUND. Attract attention? Please read WP:POINT. Just because you discuss does not grant you a license to edit war. I'm sorry, but I cannot unblock you at this time. You have not adequately addressed the reason for your block.

Please see our policy on edit warring. In the event of a content dispute, editors are required to stop reverting, discuss, and seek consensus among editors on the relevant talk page. If discussions reach an impasse, editors can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution.

Points to ponder:

Edit warring is wrong even if one is right.
Any arguments in favor of one's preferred version should be made on the relevant talk page and not in an unblock appeal.
Calling attention to the faults of others is never a successful strategy; one must address one's own behavior.

To be unblocked, you must affirm an understanding of all of this, and what not to do, and what to do when in a content dispute. Please tell us, in your own words, what it all means. Thanks,. -- Deepfriedokra ( talk) 16:43, 3 March 2024 (UTC) reply
