Hi, I have reviewed Battle of Byczyna and placed it on hold for up to seven days with some concerns. You can see my review here: Talk:Battle of Byczyna/GA1. Canadian Paul 19:46, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
Apologies for the lateness of this letter; our usual bot wasn't working. We are now entering round 4, our semi-finals, and have our final 16. A score of 243 was required to reach this round; significantly more than 2011's 76 points, and only a little behind 2010's 250 points. By comparison, last year, 150 points in round 4 secured a place in the final; in 2010, 430 were needed. Commiserations to Pool A's igordebraga ( submissions), who scored 242 points, missing out on a place in the round by a whisker. However, congratulations to Pool B's Grapple X ( submissions), whose television articles have brought him another round victory. Pool A's Cwmhiraeth ( submissions) came second overall, with an impressive list of biological did you knows, good articles and featured articles. Third overall was Pool D's Muboshgu ( submissions), with a long list of contibutions, mostly relating to baseball. Of course, with the points resetting every round, the playing field has been levelled. The most successful Pool was Pool D, which saw seven into the final round. Pool B saw four, C saw three and Pool A saw only the two round leaders.
A quick note about other competitions taking place on Wikipedia which may be of interest. There are 13 days remaining in the June-July GAN backlog elimination drive, but it is not too late to take part. August will also see the return of The Core Contest- a one month long competition first run in 2007. While the WikiCup awards points for audited content on any subject, The Core Contest about is raw article improvement, focussing heavily on the most important articles on Wikipedia. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hi! Maus just passed GA, so I intend to put it up for FA review soon. You said if it got this far you would want to help with Polish sources. Is that offer still open? CüRlyTüRkey Talk Contribs 07:07, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
No can do. Most of them are hand-drawn and their only source could be cited as "general knowledge" or "Halibutt's nose". Probably the sourcing cited in this map is the most specific I could give. Sure, If I simply cloned some already-existing maps it would be easier to source them and it would most likely please all the paranoiacs, though it would also be a copyright infringement I believe. Anyway, if there are people who claim that Vistula is not a river and that Warsaw is in fact in the middle of Northern America - let them come and try to prove that. I believe it would be a waste of my time to do anything more. // Halibu tt 12:56, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi, did review that DYK, but had to change that 12 and 20,000 men with 30 pieces of artillery cos there was only one ref there and couldn't verify if that was really it. All I found was 6,000 and 8,000 men with no mention of 30 pieces of artillery. Sorry if I bother, but you can always revert.......:) ! Oh, there's another ref on Marek Zhmaylo if you wanna include it there too. All the best ! Krenakarore TK 01:33, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

I stumbled upon state country the other day and noticed your extensive comments at Talk:State country from a few years back about the title of the article. I think the issue is worth reviving. The current title, though it might be an accurate translation, is very confusing to an English audience. Please comment at that talk page if you care. — AjaxSmack 16:04, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi P, have no problem with deletion of my article unless deletion is equal with everyone else's.. I have submitted my article as a test after seeing an example of self autobiography by someone else.

I see you nominated my article about Goran Kukic to be deleted since not enough references are given. I will try to explain this. As you may notice, only most popular and young artists for Serbia have wikipedia article and can be found on the internet, while the older generation of very appreciated artists didn't pay much respect to this type of communication or promotion. Goran is preparing a big exhibiton for the end of this year and as introduction is having several exhibitions around Serbia. Therefore, he decided to change his PR strategies and also to be active on the internet. He is launching his website in one week. Also, The Artist's association in Serbia, which are mentioned in the article do not even have the lists of their artists on their websites, therefore I cannot find any besides personal and hardcopy references.
Please advise what should I do.

In response to the removal request for the new page "COSIRES conference" (Jun 23, 2012): There are many other wiki pages for international conferences in physics.

This was just promoted to A-class, which is great. Since the main sources are in Polish, it's probably not the best article to take to FAC unless someone at WT:POLAND is willing to do the spot-checking.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Transnational organization is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Transnational organization until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Robofish ( talk) 23:24, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

We're approaching the beginning of 2012's final round. Pool A sees Cwmhiraeth ( submissions) as the leader, with 300 points being awarded for the featured article Bivalvia, and Pool B sees Grapple X ( submissions) in the lead, with 10 good articles, and over 35 articles eligible for good topic points. Pool A sees Muboshgu ( submissions) in second place with a number of articles relating to baseball, while Pool B's Ruby2010 ( submissions) follows Grapple X, with a variety of contributions including the high-scoring, high-importance featured article on the 2010 film Pride & Prejudice. Ruby2010, like Grapple X, also claimed a number of good topic points; despite this, not a single point has been claimed for featured topics in the contest so far. The same is true for featured portals.
Currently, the eighth-place competitor (and so the lowest scorer who would reach the final round right now) has scored 332, more than double the 150 needed to reach the final round last year. In 2010, however, 430 was the lowest qualifying score. In this competition, we have generally seen scores closer to those in 2010 than those in 2011. Let's see what kind of benchmark we can set for future competitions!

Hi. Sorry it took so long to respond. The Wikiversity page was the initial tender. It hasn't been updated much since then, despite the project having continued and my coming back on to it in an informal role since I submitted my thesis. I don't think we have a page that spells it out clearly. If necessary, it could be done. I just don't have the time and effort to do that until after the Paralympics. : / There were always some structural issues for how to put it into WMF space as the project was designed to be worked on across multiple projects. (And it has: Wikinews, Wikiversity, English Wikipedia, Commons, Simple Wikipedia, one or two things on Wiktionary.

As you recommend to do with a Pole, I'll say "Tea - who you - yeah bunny!". Ale - zdaje mi sie, ze jest to niedobrze... Sorry, I can't easily get the proper dyacrytical marks. Anyhow: you intervened in the article "Ratschiller", which I created. I'm an Italian, with no sympathy for national oppression (in this case, the Fascists' attempt to de-Germanize South Tyrol) and a lot of sympathy for Poles. That is why I created the article.
Now some robot finds it is not encyclopedical enough.
Can you do anything to help? For instance by creating the Polish version? Or--whatever else? Pan Brerus ( talk) 20:58, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
I've read your message, but the English Wikipedia discussion page is an enigma to me, so I'm posting here.
Ratschiller identified himself as an ethnic German in spite of his Italian citizenship. He was an Italian partisan because he fought in Italy for the liberation of Italy, but he was a German by self-identified ethnicity. And a half-Pole, of course. BTW Adam Mickiewicz was born in Czarist Russia in a similar ethnicity-citizenship situation; and Joseph Conrad was an English novel writer in spite of being a Pole. With nationality issues, I'm afraid we need some fuzzy logic.
The Guinness Book of Records only certifies living people, much as the Nobel Prize does -- and usually on their own application and after repeating the feat they claim world championship about, under tightly controlled circumstances. You can't repeat WWII (or so I hope...).
Ratschiller's trajectory during WWII is really uncommon. After the war he was a notable geologist, but I don't have any competence in that field so I can't provide much info about his career. But it's a Wiki, some other people might be able to.
The Italian Wikipedia has never raised the issue of notability. I am not the initiator of the Italian article.
Nor am I a relation of Ratschiller's. The blood in my vein is 93.75% Italian, with a Hungarian great-great-grandmother providing the rest (thank you, Granny!).
This is virtually all I can say about notability. Pan Brerus ( talk) 08:59, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

The final is upon us! We are down to our final 8. A massive 573 was our lowest qualifying score; this is higher than the 150 points needed last year and the 430 needed in 2010. Even in 2009, when points were acquired for mainspace edit count in addition to audited content, 417 points secured a place. That leaves this year's WikiCup, by one measure at least, our most competitive ever. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:
However, we must also say goodbye to the eight who did not make the final, having fallen at the last hurdle: GreatOrangePumpkin ( submissions), Ealdgyth ( submissions), Calvin999 ( submissions), Piotrus ( submissions), Toa Nidhiki05 ( submissions), 12george1 ( submissions), The Bushranger ( submissions) and 1111tomica ( submissions). We hope to see you all next year.
On the subject of next year, a discussion has been opened here. Come and have your say about the competition, and how you'd like it to run in the future. This brainstorming will go on for some time before more focused discussions/polls are opened. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Apologies for the lateness of this letter; our usual bot wasn't working. We are now entering round 4, our semi-finals, and have our final 16. A score of 243 was required to reach this round; significantly more than 2011's 76 points, and only a little behind 2010's 250 points. By comparison, last year, 150 points in round 4 secured a place in the final; in 2010, 430 were needed. Commiserations to Pool A's igordebraga ( submissions), who scored 242 points, missing out on a place in the round by a whisker. However, congratulations to Pool B's Grapple X ( submissions), whose television articles have brought him another round victory. Pool A's Cwmhiraeth ( submissions) came second overall, with an impressive list of biological did you knows, good articles and featured articles. Third overall was Pool D's Muboshgu ( submissions), with a long list of contibutions, mostly relating to baseball. Of course, with the points resetting every round, the playing field has been levelled. The most successful Pool was Pool D, which saw seven into the final round. Pool B saw four, C saw three and Pool A saw only the two round leaders.
A quick note about other competitions taking place on Wikipedia which may be of interest. There are 13 days remaining in the June-July GAN backlog elimination drive, but it is not too late to take part. August will also see the return of The Core Contest- a one month long competition first run in 2007. While the WikiCup awards points for audited content on any subject, The Core Contest about is raw article improvement, focussing heavily on the most important articles on Wikipedia. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hi! Maus just passed GA, so I intend to put it up for FA review soon. You said if it got this far you would want to help with Polish sources. Is that offer still open? CüRlyTüRkey Talk Contribs 07:07, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
No can do. Most of them are hand-drawn and their only source could be cited as "general knowledge" or "Halibutt's nose". Probably the sourcing cited in this map is the most specific I could give. Sure, If I simply cloned some already-existing maps it would be easier to source them and it would most likely please all the paranoiacs, though it would also be a copyright infringement I believe. Anyway, if there are people who claim that Vistula is not a river and that Warsaw is in fact in the middle of Northern America - let them come and try to prove that. I believe it would be a waste of my time to do anything more. // Halibu tt 12:56, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi, did review that DYK, but had to change that 12 and 20,000 men with 30 pieces of artillery cos there was only one ref there and couldn't verify if that was really it.

I see you nominated my article about Goran Kukic to be deleted since not enough references are given. I will try to explain this. As you may notice, only most popular and young artists for Serbia have wikipedia article and can be found on the internet, while the older generation of very appreciated artists didn't pay much respect to this type of communication or promotion. Goran is preparing a big exhibiton for the end of this year and as introduction is having several exhibitions around Serbia. Therefore, he decided to change his PR strategies and also to be active on the internet. He is launching his website in one week. Also, The Artist's association in Serbia, which are mentioned in the article do not even have the lists of their artists on their websites, therefore I cannot find any besides personal and hardcopy references.
Please advise what should I do.

We're approaching the beginning of 2012's final round. Pool A sees Cwmhiraeth ( submissions) as the leader, with 300 points being awarded for the featured article Bivalvia, and Pool B sees Grapple X ( submissions) in the lead, with 10 good articles, and over 35 articles eligible for good topic points. Pool A sees Muboshgu ( submissions) in second place with a number of articles relating to baseball, while Pool B's Ruby2010 ( submissions) follows Grapple X, with a variety of contributions including the high-scoring, high-importance featured article on the 2010 film Pride & Prejudice. Ruby2010, like Grapple X, also claimed a number of good topic points; despite this, not a single point has been claimed for featured topics in the contest so far. The same is true for featured portals.
Currently, the eighth-place competitor (and so the lowest scorer who would reach the final round right now) has scored 332, more than double the 150 needed to reach the final round last year. In 2010, however, 430 was the lowest qualifying score. In this competition, we have generally seen scores closer to those in 2010 than those in 2011. Let's see what kind of benchmark we can set for future competitions!

Hi. Sorry it took so long to respond. The Wikiversity page was the initial tender. It hasn't been updated much since then, despite the project having continued and my coming back on to it in an informal role since I submitted my thesis. I don't think we have a page that spells it out clearly. If necessary, it could be done. I just don't have the time and effort to do that until after the Paralympics. : / There were always some structural issues for how to put it into WMF space as the project was designed to be worked on across multiple projects. (And it has: Wikinews, Wikiversity, English Wikipedia, Commons, Simple Wikipedia, one or two things on Wiktionary. I think Wikibooks is supposed to happen but not certain.) -- LauraHale ( talk) 20:34, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

As you recommend to do with a Pole, I'll say "Tea - who you - yeah bunny!". Ale - zdaje mi sie, ze jest to niedobrze... Sorry, I can't easily get the proper dyacrytical marks. Anyhow: you intervened in the article "Ratschiller", which I created. I'm an Italian, with no sympathy for national oppression (in this case, the Fascists' attempt to de-Germanize South Tyrol) and a lot of sympathy for Poles. That is why I created the article.
Now some robot finds it is not encyclopedical enough.
Can you do anything to help? For instance by creating the Polish version? Or--whatever else? Pan Brerus ( talk) 20:58, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
I've read your message, but the English Wikipedia discussion page is an enigma to me, so I'm posting here.
Ratschiller identified himself as an ethnic German in spite of his Italian citizenship. He was an Italian partisan because he fought in Italy for the liberation of Italy, but he was a German by self-identified ethnicity. And a half-Pole, of course. BTW Adam Mickiewicz was born in Czarist Russia in a similar ethnicity-citizenship situation; and Joseph Conrad was an English novel writer in spite of being a Pole. With nationality issues, I'm afraid we need some fuzzy logic.
The Guinness Book of Records only certifies living people, much as the Nobel Prize does -- and usually on their own application and after repeating the feat they claim world championship about, under tightly controlled circumstances. You can't repeat WWII (or so I hope...).
Ratschiller's trajectory during WWII is really uncommon. After the war he was a notable geologist, but I don't have any competence in that field so I can't provide much info about his career. But it's a Wiki, some other people might be able to.
The Italian Wikipedia has never raised the issue of notability. I am not the initiator of the Italian article.
Nor am I a relation of Ratschiller's. The blood in my vein is 93.75% Italian, with a Hungarian great-great-grandmother providing the rest (thank you, Granny!).
This is virtually all I can say about notability. Pan Brerus ( talk) 08:59, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

The final is upon us! We are down to our final 8. A massive 573 was our lowest qualifying score; this is higher than the 150 points needed last year and the 430 needed in 2010. Even in 2009, when points were acquired for mainspace edit count in addition to audited content, 417 points secured a place. That leaves this year's WikiCup, by one measure at least, our most competitive ever. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:
However, we must also say goodbye to the eight who did not make the final, having fallen at the last hurdle: GreatOrangePumpkin ( submissions), Ealdgyth ( submissions), Calvin999 ( submissions), Piotrus ( submissions), Toa Nidhiki05 ( submissions), 12george1 ( submissions), The Bushranger ( submissions) and 1111tomica ( submissions). We hope to see you all next year.
On the subject of next year, a discussion has been opened here. Come and have your say about the competition, and how you'd like it to run in the future. This brainstorming will go on for some time before more focused discussions/polls are opened. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!
