Hi there, I noticed that you are an extremly high contributor to FA and was wondering if you would like to be interviewed for an upcoming episode of Wikipedia Weekly? I would be interested in talking about why you are involved in WP, what areas are you specifically involved in, the Polish wikipedia community and their specific issues. Does this sound interesting? I hope to hear from you soon. Witty Lama 12:08, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Hello Piotrus. My Polish being effectively non-existent, can you tell me if pl:Jan Czyński was in Paris in the 1830s. I assume so - "great emigration" I did understand. I'm trying to figure out if he is the person who co-authored a book called Le Roi des Paysans (published in Paris in 1838). My Belgian source calls this person Jean Czynski. Many thanks in advance!

Well Estonians story is simple. Most of them came when the Russian media attack started against Estonia during the Bronze soldier of Tallinn incident. Some articles were really horrible at the time, Estonian flag under Estonia was replaced with nazi german one all the time, etc. Many editors came in. Some old editors were drawn into the spin, etc. The first sock/meatpuppetry accusations came from the fact that estonian editors were quite same minded. Estonian media gave detailed updates on situation and many people like myself were also in the center of the situation so saw the incidents with their own eyes. So there was not much room for debate if someone wrote that the soldier was dismantled sawn to pieces peed on or what ever as we knew it wasn't and thats why we all reverted that. So as people knew something for sure they ofcourse acted the same.
When the so called Established Editors came into frame the things got more serious and they tried to eliminate some opposing editors. They succeeded on some cases. Mostly humble editors who were here before to edit encyclopedia not to battle. Others didn't give up so easily. Now as the things have cooled down a bit, the editors are quite hard working and Estonia related articles are better than they have ever been.
Estonian (and now Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, etc.) editors are also observing each others work to assist where necessary. It's sometimes happens that they also meet at AFD's and other votes for similar reason. Some editors are also available on #wikipedia channel so we have held discussions there. I can't speak for other editors because I don't know, but I don't have any sockpuppets and I don't think any other one has any either.
The RFCU process makes me a bit sad. I shuffled over some old RFCU cases and the methodology they use seems like extremely unreliable. It seems they use some very mean statistics in style: 1) Assuming every 1000000th person in world is editing english wikipedia. 2) Assuming estonia has 1.4m people. 3) Estonia can have 14 wikipedians. 4) As the threshold is already exceeded, every new wikipedian must be a sockpuppet of the earlier editors.

Thank your for awarding me a badge of honour for my contributions related to Poland. And also for an invitation to join the Poland/Poland-related WP noticeboard. I have a question related to the latter:
What additional rights/duties does the membership of the said noticeboard confer, on top of what every common, or garden variety, WP editor can/cannot/should/shouldn't do? I an not a natural 'joiner', so unless there is some 'value added' (value for the community and/or for me) in the membership, I'll stay, and carry on contributing occasionally, as a freelance outsider.--

Dzien dobry! I just heard your interview on Wikipedia Weekly! :) I especially liked your statement that civility rules need to be enforced more effectively, somehow. I completely agree that incivility and general obnoxiousness is the biggest on-wiki problem we have to deal with...
Also, it was just neat to hear your voice! :) K. Lásztocska 18:09, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
I've gone through the article trying to get it back into shape. I didn't feel I could cut that large chunk of material that was added to the lead, because even though the information was all covered and reffed in the article already, it is properly reffed and the editor took care over it. So I've put it in a note for the time being.
One problem I haven't solved is that someone added Soviet casualty figures to the lead. Nothing wrong with that in principle, but the figures were only from one source (which they took from our infobox). I have not yet been able to think of a way of summarising the varied figures for Russian casualties pithily (and good expression is essential; blocks of figures tramelled with ifs and buts are alienating to readers). For the time being, therefore, I've cut both Polish and Soviet figures from the lead; but this is unsatisfactory because the PoW figures are still there, sitting uncomfortably now. If you can think of a way to express both sets of figures briefly and accurately for the lead, please do so. In this, I think the article is a victim of its own success because, unlike books (which seem to choose the particular set of figures which suit their bent), it tries to inform the readers of the whole range of different possible figures. This is invaluable and unique but is not easy to summarise in the lead. qp10qp 04:25, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Hello, when you split up the articles on the Wołyń Voivodeship, one of them read Wołyń Voivodeship (1921–1919). I moved to Wołyń Voivodeship (1918-1939), which are the dates given in the article, but I hope I didn't mess anything up. Perhaps you go look over what I did and make sure.

I have never consistently supported any one person's view on these articles. I'm not about to rewrite them. The only way to go that is acceptable at WP is that the different parties discus sit on the talk page until they agree. In my experience, on any topic, compromise is almost always the best way to find such an agreement. this is intended as encouragement for you to continue to discuss with each other, not with me.

I don't believe I did misunderstand the situation. Irpen rep eat eadly asked about the credentials of the website about the Warsaw Uprising, Tymek ans wered with attacks on Irpen's general editing patterns (and his alleged "Soviet nationality"). It wasn't until this of yours that Irpen's question was truly answered. I wasn't saying that these websites violeted WP:RS, but I believe one can expect people who add non-English sources to give some evidence for their reliability. That's all Irpen expected, as far as I can tell. Obviously the uncivility in this discussion is merely a consequence of a general dispute about Eastern European topics on the English Wikipedia, but in this case, I don't think Irpen's conduct was the problem.-- Carabinieri 21:59, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for letting me know, Piotrus. To be honest, I didn't really see the problem with the references in the first place; they're certainly no worse than many other articles that have been used at DYK with no problem. However, I'm so far from an expert in this area that I'd personally be uncomfortable transferring the article to use at DYK unless Irpen were to formally withdraw his/her objections. I'll put a note against the hook tentatively supporting it, and hope someone stops by who knows enough about the subject to make a decision. Regards, Espresso Addict 03:32, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Piotrus, have you seen this disgrace?

The article Polish October you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold. It hasn't failed because it's basically a good article, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Polish October for things needed to be addressed. VanTucky Talk 21:38, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi Piotrus, there seems to be an ongoing edit-war between some editors, and because there is a GA-nominee procedure I don't know which version is good, but there are some editors proposing Cracow or Krakow in the leading of the article which I think is against wikipedia naming conventions. ≈Tulkolahten≈ ≈talk≈ 21:32, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

I see no harm in it ( [6]). It has been my experience that only unsecure nationalists prefer to deny that a city has been called by other names. I have no problem with admitting that Cracow is popular (if slightly more obsolete than Kraków), and that for most of 19th century, Krakau was often heard (and probably before, after all, many burghers were of German origin). -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 19:02, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi Piotr,
Thanks so much for following the new Economist Debate Series [9] and encouraging your readers to participate in what is sure to be a lively discussion about global education issues.
As a blogger and member of the education and technology community, we wanted to tip you off to what will happen on Monday, when we kick off the series with opening arguments.
• The Winning Debate: The community has spoken! The three winning propositions have been determined by popular vote, and our first debate on proposition #1 begins on October 15th. “This house believes that the continuing introduction of new technologies and new media adds little to the quality of most education.”
• Expert Debaters: Two global thought leaders in technology and education will square off on either side of the issue.
SIR JOHN DANIELS (AGREE) - President and Chief Executive Officer of The Commonwealth of Learning. vs.
Dr. Robert Kozma (DISAGREE) - Emeritus Director and Principal Scientist at SRI International (formerly known as Stanford Research Institute).
Other leaders in global education and technology have signed on to be guest participants through the course of the debate, so check back regularly to see your colleagues and friends examine the issues and deliberate from the virtual, online floor. We encourage you and your readers to participate as well.
Please support discourse, and may intelligence prevail!

Dear Piotr:
A couple of weeks ago the User:BetacommandBot send me back the Image:Herb Holownia.PNG, it seems I did a mistake in the license. It should be GDFL-cc-2.5 and I added a Fair use tag I do not know why. It is a Tadeusz Gajl´s work uploaded by Emax time ago with a mistake in the name. He put Holowina instead of Holownia. I do not remember why I did the mistake, may be I was drunk this day, since I am a Polish-Uruguayan (it is a joke).
I did the same thing with Image:Herb Brochwicz.jpg time ago without any problem. (The proper name was Brochwicz and was uploaded erroneously as Brochowich) Anyway I do not know how to repair the damage. There is a proper version Image:POL COA Hołownia.svg already available so may be no important to keep or to delete this one.
May you take care of this matter?
Regards, thanks and sorry. -- Gustavo 06:07, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Dear Poitrus,
Hi Piotrus, what do you think about this [13]. Little notice about the novel is far enough I think. Citing or self-interpretation of the novel or claiming it as an international view is little bit out of topic. What do you mean? ≈Tulkolahten≈ ≈talk≈ 08:08, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Hello, I have one further question about Stefan Fedak, the attempted assassin of Pilsudski. Are you sure he was OVU and not a member of one of the other groups that went on to form the OUN? Thanks, Ostap 21:00, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
The article Kiev Expedition (1018) you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold. It hasn't failed because it's basically a good article, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Kiev Expedition (1018) for things needed to be addressed. Victor12 21:56, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Tomorrow I will research and try to add some to it. The article looks very thorough. I will do my best. thanks, Ostap 04:32, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Hello, I was researching the subject Soviet occupations, and added information about Soviet occupation of Korea and Bulgaria already to the list. Look at the talk page. It seems to me that the article is quite comprehensive now as of World War II -> Cold War. It may miss the brief Soviet occupations of Japanese territories and Norway, but otherwise.
The period which now needs more information is pre-World War II. There are books in Google books which use the term "Soviet occupation of Ukraine ~1920" and so. I have no background information on the 1920 Polish-Soviet War & Ukraine, so it's hard for me to look write about it. Did the Soviets occupy parts of Poland during the war? A particular interest is also Mongolian People's Republic from the 1920s, as many sources refer it as Soviet occupation also. Then the article should be pretty much covering all Soviet occupations, though Yugoslavia in World War II should be looked at also. -- Pudeo ⺮ 11:00, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Sorry to keep bothering you, but should the articels Polish minority in Ukraine and Ukrainian minority in Poland be titled " Poles in Ukraine" and " Ukrainians in Poland", following the lead of Russians in Ukraine and Ukrainians in Russia and so on? Also, are these articles going to include content on the history of said minorities, such as Ukrainians in Polish commonwealth and the like? If you read over Russians in Ukraine or the other article, they are very developed and go into demographics and history. Or are they just about recent census and events? Thanks, Ostap 18:47, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Sure- I can reply here. I have a list of the projects, linked on my user page. The students are in charge of updating links to their article and to their own userpages under the corresponding page, and many of them have followed through on that so far. I will ask them to add the school project tag to their article talk pages. I am dismayed to hear about the speedy deletion of the Causation and study design page, but I am sure that it can be resolved. In general I think the students are taking the task seriously and are contributing value. We tried to identify stubs for them to start with, although some topics like Social roles and Roles (Sociological theory) are overlapping, and in my initial search I only found the former. Nonetheless even the moderately developed articles tend to be entirely divorced from actual research on the topic, so connecting to that research remains an important contribution for the students to make. I expect that we will continue to experience some bumps in terms of formatting and procedures for the next week or so as the 120 students get up to speed on basic Wikipedia practice. But in that process, I can convey any suggestions or help that seems sufficiently general to warrant broadcast. Thanks again for your help.-- Htw3 19:24, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks! Both of my fall courses are participating, Intro with 98 students and Methods with 22. I guess we have about 28? projects under way, with 3 to 5 students per article. I found topics by looking through the list of stubs in the Sociology WikiProject and by looking through the textbooks I was using for the courses. I then searched for the articles on those topics looking for topics that were stubs, missing or otherwise needed a great deal of work. I asked students to name three topics from this list that they were interested in, but there was a great deal of overlap, so I had to match most of the groups up with topics myself. Fortunately for us, there are plenty of important and interesting topics with little or no development in the sociology domain of Wikipedia. A number of the pages are moving along nicely and I expect that several will be quite good by late November.-- Htw3 20:32, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Dear Piotr:
I am browsing through your photos from the Jan Dlugosz´s house. There are several coats of arms in tapestries, coffins and paintings. Two of them quite clear, the others will give me some work. I will try to take as much profits as I can. Thank you for remember me. I am going to ask you some information about them.
Right now I am getting a problem with the license of w:commons:Image:Stanislaw Antoni Szczuka (1652 1654-1710).jpg, I uploaded it in July 2006, I had get it from Emax´s work w:en:Image:Stanislaw Antoni Szczuka (1652 1654-1710).jpg. He edited this image in December 2004 in PD tag. But now this tag needs updating and Emax is not active currently. Do you know what can I do?
Truly thanks

You fixed Image:Stanislaw Antoni Szczuka.jpg in en:wiki and commons immediately! Oh thanks!
I am just starting with w:commons:Category:Coats of arms of families of Poland in Diocesan Museum in Sandomierz, I did the easy ones. The w:commons:Image:Muzeum Diecezjalne - 32.JPG is really something, the coat of arms is quarterly with an innescutcheon. It is not clear enough, but it has two crests, one is Topor (may be the Starykon crest too) so the innescutcheon must be the axe of Topor (or the horse of Starykon - but I believe it is an axe). The innescutcheon seems to be party per pale also but I do not see it clearly. The second crest is not very clear neither. Do you remember something more about the drawing? Do you know to whom did belong this coat of arms?
I did an interesting description in the coat of arms of Olesko castle (and town) already w:commons:Image:Polish coats of arms in Olesko castle entrance.PNG. I would like to do the same thing.
I will try to detail the coats of arms from pictures. I will write you again about them. Regards.

Well Estonians story is simple. Most of them came when the Russian media attack started against Estonia during the Bronze soldier of Tallinn incident. Some articles were really horrible at the time, Estonian flag under Estonia was replaced with nazi german one all the time, etc. Many editors came in. Some old editors were drawn into the spin, etc. The first sock/meatpuppetry accusations came from the fact that estonian editors were quite same minded. Estonian media gave detailed updates on situation and many people like myself were also in the center of the situation so saw the incidents with their own eyes. So there was not much room for debate if someone wrote that the soldier was dismantled sawn to pieces peed on or what ever as we knew it wasn't and thats why we all reverted that. So as people knew something for sure they ofcourse acted the same.
When the so called Established Editors came into frame the things got more serious and they tried to eliminate some opposing editors. They succeeded on some cases. Mostly humble editors who were here before to edit encyclopedia not to battle. Others didn't give up so easily. Now as the things have cooled down a bit, the editors are quite hard working and Estonia related articles are better than they have ever been.
Estonian (and now Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, etc.) editors are also observing each others work to assist where necessary. It's sometimes happens that they also meet at AFD's and other votes for similar reason. Some editors are also available on #wikipedia channel so we have held discussions there. I can't speak for other editors because I don't know, but I don't have any sockpuppets and I don't think any other one has any either.
The RFCU process makes me a bit sad. I shuffled over some old RFCU cases and the methodology they use seems like extremely unreliable. It seems they use some very mean statistics in style: 1) Assuming every 1000000th person in world is editing english wikipedia. 2) Assuming estonia has 1.4m people. 3) Estonia can have 14 wikipedians. 4) As the threshold is already exceeded, every new wikipedian must be a sockpuppet of the earlier editors.

I've gone through the article trying to get it back into shape. I didn't feel I could cut that large chunk of material that was added to the lead, because even though the information was all covered and reffed in the article already, it is properly reffed and the editor took care over it. So I've put it in a note for the time being.
One problem I haven't solved is that someone added Soviet casualty figures to the lead. Nothing wrong with that in principle, but the figures were only from one source (which they took from our infobox). I have not yet been able to think of a way of summarising the varied figures for Russian casualties pithily (and good expression is essential; blocks of figures tramelled with ifs and buts are alienating to readers). For the time being, therefore, I've cut both Polish and Soviet figures from the lead; but this is unsatisfactory because the PoW figures are still there, sitting uncomfortably now. If you can think of a way to express both sets of figures briefly and accurately for the lead, please do so. In this, I think the article is a victim of its own success because, unlike books (which seem to choose the particular set of figures which suit their bent), it tries to inform the readers of the whole range of different possible figures. This is invaluable and unique but is not easy to summarise in the lead. qp10qp 04:25, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Hello, when you split up the articles on the Wołyń Voivodeship, one of them read Wołyń Voivodeship (1921–1919). I moved to Wołyń Voivodeship (1918-1939), which are the dates given in the article, but I hope I didn't mess anything up. Perhaps you go look over what I did and make sure. Thanks, Ostap 20:24, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

I have never consistently supported any one person's view on these articles. I'm not about to rewrite them. The only way to go that is acceptable at WP is that the different parties discus sit on the talk page until they agree. In my experience, on any topic, compromise is almost always the best way to find such an agreement. this is intended as encouragement for you to continue to discuss with each other, not with me.

I don't believe I did misunderstand the situation. Irpen rep eat eadly asked about the credentials of the website about the Warsaw Uprising, Tymek ans wered with attacks on Irpen's general editing patterns (and his alleged "Soviet nationality"). It wasn't until this of yours that Irpen's question was truly answered. I wasn't saying that these websites violeted WP:RS, but I believe one can expect people who add non-English sources to give some evidence for their reliability. That's all Irpen expected, as far as I can tell. Obviously the uncivility in this discussion is merely a consequence of a general dispute about Eastern European topics on the English Wikipedia, but in this case, I don't think Irpen's conduct was the problem.-- Carabinieri 21:59, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for letting me know, Piotrus. To be honest, I didn't really see the problem with the references in the first place; they're certainly no worse than many other articles that have been used at DYK with no problem. However, I'm so far from an expert in this area that I'd personally be uncomfortable transferring the article to use at DYK unless Irpen were to formally withdraw his/her objections. I'll put a note against the hook tentatively supporting it, and hope someone stops by who knows enough about the subject to make a decision. Regards, Espresso Addict 03:32, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Piotrus, have you seen this disgrace? The official newspaper of the Russian government ( Rossiyskaya gazeta) contends that existing evidence of the Soviet responsibility for Katyn is not reliable (apparently they are too embarrased to publish this piece online). This shouldn't go unnoticed here. Colchicum 14:06, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Hello Piotrus. I was browsing possibly unfree images, and I came across a mention of Image:PZL P.11c.jpg, uploaded by Halibutt. If Halibutt is not around, can you maybe check this?

I understand your surprise but nevertheless "See also" section is for the articles that are already created only. It's not a notice board or a place for wish lists.

The article Polish October you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold. It hasn't failed because it's basically a good article, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Polish October for things needed to be addressed. VanTucky Talk 21:38, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
Hi Piotrus, there seems to be an ongoing edit-war between some editors, and because there is a GA-nominee procedure I don't know which version is good, but there are some editors proposing Cracow or Krakow in the leading of the article which I think is against wikipedia naming conventions. ≈Tulkolahten≈ ≈talk≈ 21:32, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
I urge you please to change your position to Keep because otherwise it seems it will be deleted.

I see no harm in it ( [6]). It has been my experience that only unsecure nationalists prefer to deny that a city has been called by other names. I have no problem with admitting that Cracow is popular (if slightly more obsolete than Kraków), and that for most of 19th century, Krakau was often heard (and probably before, after all, many burghers were of German origin). -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 19:02, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

I've been away for a bit (Yes I remember the above exchange too! <g>), but fixed up 1632_Editorial_Board some today and stubbed in Ring of Fire II. Can you find the time to proof me and add anything you know. I've been unable to do much browsing in Baen's Bar or Erics site since forever... (Christmas, I think!) and don't get the new Gazettes either (I'm gonna change THAT)!
Wouldn't mind some help with 1632 characters/places/institutions etc. either. Keep an eye on 1632 series templates too. I'm going to be giving these pages a lot of work the next few weeks if my plans work out, complete with page cites (e.g. See {{ Cite 1633pb}}, et. al.). Having characters up will ease writing synopses significantly, I think. Have a go at Mike Stearns and John Chandler Simpson in your spare time! <BSEG!> Hope your studies are going well!

Hi Piotr,
Thanks so much for following the new Economist Debate Series [9] and encouraging your readers to participate in what is sure to be a lively discussion about global education issues.
As a blogger and member of the education and technology community, we wanted to tip you off to what will happen on Monday, when we kick off the series with opening arguments.
• The Winning Debate: The community has spoken! The three winning propositions have been determined by popular vote, and our first debate on proposition #1 begins on October 15th. “This house believes that the continuing introduction of new technologies and new media adds little to the quality of most education.”
• Expert Debaters: Two global thought leaders in technology and education will square off on either side of the issue.
SIR JOHN DANIELS (AGREE) - President and Chief Executive Officer of The Commonwealth of Learning. vs.
Dr. Robert Kozma (DISAGREE) - Emeritus Director and Principal Scientist at SRI International (formerly known as Stanford Research Institute).
Other leaders in global education and technology have signed on to be guest participants through the course of the debate, so check back regularly to see your colleagues and friends examine the issues and deliberate from the virtual, online floor. We encourage you and your readers to participate as well.
Please support discourse, and may intelligence prevail!

I've literally only just seen your question on my RfA - as your watchlist will tell you, it has just closed succesfuly and been archived. Even though it will make no difference now, I should say that, for the record, yes, I will immediatly add myself to that cat.

Dear Piotr:
A couple of weeks ago the User:BetacommandBot send me back the Image:Herb Holownia.PNG, it seems I did a mistake in the license. It should be GDFL-cc-2.5 and I added a Fair use tag I do not know why. It is a Tadeusz Gajl´s work uploaded by Emax time ago with a mistake in the name. He put Holowina instead of Holownia. I do not remember why I did the mistake, may be I was drunk this day, since I am a Polish-Uruguayan (it is a joke).
I did the same thing with Image:Herb Brochwicz.jpg time ago without any problem. (The proper name was Brochwicz and was uploaded erroneously as Brochowich) Anyway I do not know how to repair the damage. There is a proper version Image:POL COA Hołownia.svg already available so may be no important to keep or to delete this one.
May you take care of this matter?
Regards, thanks and sorry. -- Gustavo 06:07, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi Piotrus, what do you think about this [13]. Little notice about the novel is far enough I think. Citing or self-interpretation of the novel or claiming it as an international view is little bit out of topic. What do you mean? ≈Tulkolahten≈ ≈talk≈ 08:08, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Tomorrow I will research and try to add some to it. The article looks very thorough. I will do my best. thanks, Ostap 04:32, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Hello, I was researching the subject Soviet occupations, and added information about Soviet occupation of Korea and Bulgaria already to the list. Look at the talk page. It seems to me that the article is quite comprehensive now as of World War II -> Cold War. It may miss the brief Soviet occupations of Japanese territories and Norway, but otherwise.
The period which now needs more information is pre-World War II. There are books in Google books which use the term "Soviet occupation of Ukraine ~1920" and so. I have no background information on the 1920 Polish-Soviet War & Ukraine, so it's hard for me to look write about it. Did the Soviets occupy parts of Poland during the war? A particular interest is also Mongolian People's Republic from the 1920s, as many sources refer it as Soviet occupation also. Then the article should be pretty much covering all Soviet occupations, though Yugoslavia in World War II should be looked at also. -- Pudeo ⺮ 11:00, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Sorry to keep bothering you, but should the articels Polish minority in Ukraine and Ukrainian minority in Poland be titled " Poles in Ukraine" and " Ukrainians in Poland", following the lead of Russians in Ukraine and Ukrainians in Russia and so on? Also, are these articles going to include content on the history of said minorities, such as Ukrainians in Polish commonwealth and the like? If you read over Russians in Ukraine or the other article, they are very developed and go into demographics and history. Or are they just about recent census and events? Thanks, Ostap 18:47, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Sure- I can reply here. I have a list of the projects, linked on my user page. The students are in charge of updating links to their article and to their own userpages under the corresponding page, and many of them have followed through on that so far. I will ask them to add the school project tag to their article talk pages. I am dismayed to hear about the speedy deletion of the Causation and study design page, but I am sure that it can be resolved. In general I think the students are taking the task seriously and are contributing value. We tried to identify stubs for them to start with, although some topics like Social roles and Roles (Sociological theory) are overlapping, and in my initial search I only found the former. Nonetheless even the moderately developed articles tend to be entirely divorced from actual research on the topic, so connecting to that research remains an important contribution for the students to make. I expect that we will continue to experience some bumps in terms of formatting and procedures for the next week or so as the 120 students get up to speed on basic Wikipedia practice. But in that process, I can convey any suggestions or help that seems sufficiently general to warrant broadcast. Thanks again for your help.-- Htw3 19:24, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks! Both of my fall courses are participating, Intro with 98 students and Methods with 22. I guess we have about 28? projects under way, with 3 to 5 students per article. I found topics by looking through the list of stubs in the Sociology WikiProject and by looking through the textbooks I was using for the courses. I then searched for the articles on those topics looking for topics that were stubs, missing or otherwise needed a great deal of work. I asked students to name three topics from this list that they were interested in, but there was a great deal of overlap, so I had to match most of the groups up with topics myself. Fortunately for us, there are plenty of important and interesting topics with little or no development in the sociology domain of Wikipedia. A number of the pages are moving along nicely and I expect that several will be quite good by late November.-- Htw3 20:32, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Wilhelm Koppe.JPG. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation 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.

Your request on Wikipedia:Hungarian Wikipedians' notice board has been answered by another user. Meanwhile I decided to take a look at your user page and I almost missed the otherwise very interesting and informative 'Did you know' section at the bottom. Maybe a little hint or a link at the top of the page would help others to find it easier. Squash Racket 06:01, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Kraków received another batch of GAC comments. If we can address them, we should be able to GA it successfully. Are you up to it? -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 17:01, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
Dear Piotr:
I am browsing through your photos from the Jan Dlugosz´s house. There are several coats of arms in tapestries, coffins and paintings. Two of them quite clear, the others will give me some work. I will try to take as much profits as I can. Thank you for remember me. I am going to ask you some information about them.
Right now I am getting a problem with the license of w:commons:Image:Stanislaw Antoni Szczuka (1652 1654-1710).jpg, I uploaded it in July 2006, I had get it from Emax´s work w:en:Image:Stanislaw Antoni Szczuka (1652 1654-1710).jpg. He edited this image in December 2004 in PD tag. But now this tag needs updating and Emax is not active currently. Do you know what can I do?
Truly thanks

You fixed Image:Stanislaw Antoni Szczuka.jpg in en:wiki and commons immediately! Oh thanks!
I am just starting with w:commons:Category:Coats of arms of families of Poland in Diocesan Museum in Sandomierz, I did the easy ones. The w:commons:Image:Muzeum Diecezjalne - 32.JPG is really something, the coat of arms is quarterly with an innescutcheon. It is not clear enough, but it has two crests, one is Topor (may be the Starykon crest too) so the innescutcheon must be the axe of Topor (or the horse of Starykon - but I believe it is an axe). The innescutcheon seems to be party per pale also but I do not see it clearly. The second crest is not very clear neither. Do you remember something more about the drawing? Do you know to whom did belong this coat of arms?
I did an interesting description in the coat of arms of Olesko castle (and town) already w:commons:Image:Polish coats of arms in Olesko castle entrance.PNG. I would like to do the same thing.
I will try to detail the coats of arms from pictures. I will write you again about them. Regards.

Dear Piotr, I'm curious about your reaction to the Polish elections. A positive development?

Also, if you can help me out on GlobeGnome.com (Register, see what the site has to offer and contribute if you want to), it will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

Thank you! Sire, thank you for posing a question in my RfA. The process hammered home a few things I need to keep in mind while admining and passed with a final tally of 40/0/4; two people forgot to vote in time, leaving me short of that exquisite number :-(, but I'll just have to fudge the next vote about me. Adminship feels slightly august but not particularily exalted, so I shall endeavour to consider it a toolkit and make sincere efforts to know what I'm doing before using it.

In certain times and places certain groups of people happen to seize control over some rather small area and start imposing their "majority" views there by all means possible. But as time flies by "majorities" quite often turn out to be nothing but marginal dead end of evolution as we know from multiple examples from not so distant historical times. Anyway good look to you. Carpe diem Prokonsul. As for discussing things - my arguments are present on related talk page and I have no intention repeating them time and time again. I would not get dragged into this filibuster. I'd rather spend my time writing new articles. Cheers. M0RD00R 11:19, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
